Objective: To investigate factors influencing perioperative blood transfusion in patients with scarred uterus during pregnancy undergoing cesarean section, construct and validate a transfusion risk prediction model, and provide evidence for preoperative assessment and blood management. Methods: Clinical data of 405 patients undergoing cesarean section for scarred uterus during pregnancy at the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University from January 2020 to December 2024 were retrospectively collected. The dataset was randomly divided into a training set (n=284) and a validation set (n=121) at a 7∶3 ratio. Within the training set, Firth-penalized logistic regression was employed for multivariate analysis to identify independent factors influencing perioperative blood transfusion and construct a predictive model. Model performance was evaluated in the validation set. Results: Multivariate Firth regression analysis showed that severe placenta previa (OR=75.566, 95%CI: 8.603-9979.174) and placenta accreta (OR=4.591, 95%CI: 1.120-19.416) were independent risk factors for perioperative blood transfusion, while preoperative red blood cell count (OR=0.189, 95%CI: 0.083-0.405) and fibrinogen levels (OR=0.588, 95%CI: 0.395-0.855) were protective factors. The predictive model constructed based on these four variables demonstrated good discriminatory performance, with areas under the receiver operating characteristic curves of 0.803 (95%CI: 0.740-0.867) and 0.753 (95%CI: 0.644-0.862) in the training and validation sets, respectively. Conclusion: For patients with scarred uterus during pregnancy undergoing cesarean section, severe placenta previa and placenta accreta significantly increase the risk of transfusion, while higher preoperative red blood cell count and fibrinogen levels exert a protective effect. The predictive model established in this study facilitates the identification of patients requiring transfusion, thereby enabling preoperative blood preparation and optimized blood management.

To thoroughly implement the strategic deployment outlined in the Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Promoting the Inheritance and Innovative Development of Traditional Chinese Medicine regarding research on dominant diseases of traditional Chinese medicine and to uphold the development philosophy of equal emphasis on traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine，the China Association of Chinese Medicine has fully played a leading academic role by systematically organizing and conducting a series of academic youth salons on clinical dominant diseases of traditional Chinese medicine. On September 13，2024，the 36^th Youth Salon on Clinical Dominant Diseases was successfully held in Nanjing，focusing on the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine and the integrative traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine in the diagnosis and treatment of erectile dysfunction （ED）. The conference brought together leading experts from traditional Chinese medicine，western medicine，and interdisciplinary fields，facilitating in-depth multidisciplinary discussions that led to key consensus on optimizing traditional Chinese medicine treatment protocols for ED，researching and developing new drugs of traditional Chinese medicine，and advancing interdisciplinary development in traditional Chinese medicine. This salon systematically sorted out the clinical strengths and distinctive features of traditional Chinese medicine in the diagnosis and treatment of ED. Based on current research foundations and clinical needs，it identified key directions for future scientific layout and scientific research tackling： （1） Standardization of syndrome differentiation system of traditional Chinese medicine for ED. （2） Optimization and standardization of intervention methods of integrated traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine. （3） High-quality clinical research guided by evidence-based medicine. （4） In-depth analysis of the pharmacological mechanisms of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of ED. （5） Clinical translation and application promotion of new drugs of traditional Chinese medicine. （6） Interdisciplinary integration and innovation in traditional Chinese medicine. For each research direction，key focus areas，expected objectives，and clinical value were further refined，along with the establishment of a scientifically sound priority funding level evaluation system. Therefore，building on the series of salons on the ED-focused dominant diseases of traditional Chinese medicine，this paper provides standardized guidance for clinical practice of traditional Chinese medicine in ED management，effectively contributing to the high-quality development of traditional Chinese medicine. It serves as a valuable reference for national scientific and technological strategic layout， research and development decision-making in new drugs of traditional Chinese medicine，research topic planning，and clinical guideline formulation.

Based on the theory of 'spleen governing the containment of blood' in The Classic of Difficult Issues （《难经》）， it is proposed that medication toxicity damaging the middle jiao （焦） and failure of the spleen to contain blood constitute the core pathogenesis of cancer therapy induced thrombocytopenia （CTIT）. It is believed that the anti-tumor drug toxicity directly hits middle jiao， leading to spleen qi depletion， impairment of transportation and transformation， and insufficiency of the source of blood production. Consequently， the vessels and collaterals are deprived of nourishment and become structurally damaged. Blood fails to be contained and stored within the vessels， resulting in extravasation beyond the vascular system. Persistent retention of drug toxicity may further cause stasis due to blood deviating from its normal pathway and gradually consume the essence. In view of this root deficiency with branch excess， it is proposed that the treatment should focus on fortifying spleen， boosting qi and containing blood， with the aim of restoring spleen and stomach transportation functions， repairing vascular damage， and recovering the spleen's blood-containing function. According to individual syndrome patterns， prescriptions may be supplemented with herbs that stabilize vessels and consolidate collaterals， remove stasis and promote regeneration， and replenish essence and nourish marrow， providing new perspectives for the prevention and treatment of CTIT with traditional Chinese medicine.

OBJECTIVE To establish an integrated central pharmacy management model combining the inpatient pharmacy and the pharmacy intravenous admixture service （PIVAS）， and to evaluate its effectiveness and economic value in terms of operational cost composition， dispensing output， and dispensing efficiency.METHODS Through spatial integration， flexible staff scheduling， the application of intelligent equipment， and a dual prescription review system， the inpatient pharmacy and PIVAS were integrated， and an integrated management model was implemented. Operational data from the Fourth Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University （hereinafter referred to as “our hospital”） in 2023 were selected for analysis， with national median data and data from another hospital in the same region that still implemented a separate management model for the inpatient pharmacy and PIVAS serving as controls. The activity-based costing method was used to calculate operating costs. Dispensing output， dispensing efficiency， and unit activity cost were compared among the three. Cost-benefit analysis was further conducted by calculating the net benefit （NB） and the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio （ICER） for economic evaluation.RESULTS Under the integrated central management model， the total operational cost of our hospital’s central pharmacy was 3.968 3 million yuan， representing an 11.80% reduction compared with the external hospital’s pharmacy （4.499 0 million yuan）， with consumable costs and labor costs decreasing by 38.73% and 10.99%， respectively. The total prescription dispensing volume （3.613 4 million orders） was 43.58% higher than that of the external hospital’s pharmacy （2.516 7 million orders）. The daily dispensing volume per capita reached 471.41 medication orders， 3.5 times that of the external hospital’s pharmacy （135.20 medication orders）. The unit activity cost was 1.10 yuan， showing a 38.55% decrease relative to the external hospital’s pharmacy （1.79 yuan）. The NB was 755 200 yuan， and the ICER was －2.36. In terms of PIVAS operations， the daily dispensing volume per capita for general infusions （including antibacterial drugs） in our hospital was 50.83 sets， higher than the national PIVAS median （49.11 sets） and the external hospital pharmacy （36.14 sets）； the daily dispensing volume per capita for hazardous drugs was 0.86 sets， higher than the national median （0.70 sets） and the external hospital pharmacy （0.16 sets）.CONCLUSIONS The integrated central pharmacy management model established by our hospital achieved reduced operational costs and enhanced staff efficiency despite growing service volumes. Integrating the functions of both the inpatient pharmacy and the PIVAS， this model outperformed national medians and peer hospitals in dispensing output， dispensing efficiency， unit activity cost control， and economic evaluation， and surpassed the national median specifically in PIVAS dispensing efficiency.

Health economics evidence plays an important role in linking clinical value evidence with health resource allocation decisions in the development of clinical practice guidelines. It can not only effectively balance clinical effectiveness and economic feasibility but also avoid forming "idealized" recommendations that are detached from the affordability of the healthcare system or the burden-bearing capacity of patients. To promote guideline developers to use health economics evidence more standardizedly and fully, this paper conducts an in-depth analysis of the current application status, existing challenges, access channels, and application processes of health economics evidence in current guidelines, and on this basis, puts forward considerations and suggestions for strengthening and standardizing the application of health economics evidence in China's clinical practice guidelines.

"Sinew prescription correspondence" is the principle of selecting prescriptions for channel sinew diseases. On the basis of the theory of syndrome differentiation and treatment， the pulse manifestation corresponds to the channel sinew syndrome， which can improve the flexibility and standardization of clinical prescriptions. From the perspective of systematic dialectical sphygmology， this paper explains the dialectical relationship between channel sinew theory and pulse body elements， pulse wall elements， pulse elements and blood flow elements， and clarifies the internal relationship between pulse manifestation and prescriptions at the level of channel sinew disease. The prescription is derived from the method， while the method is established with the syndrome， and the prescription is unified by the method. According to the theory of "sinew prescription correspondence"， the treatment ideas of channel sinew diseases were analyzed from the perspective of channel sinew distribution， functional characteristics and structural changes. On this basis， the diagnosis of channel sinew disease and the application of prescriptions are expanded， and the research on the internal treatment and diagnosis mode of "pulse manifestation-channel sinew-zang fu （脏腑）" is prospected， so as to expand the differentiation and treatment methods of channel sinew theory.

Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is an emerging tick-borne infectious disease with a high mortality rate. Many countries worldwide have already reported local transmission, and the number of reported cases has been increasing yearly, with an ever-expanding region. No specific treatment drugs or vaccines have seriously threatened public health safety in epidemic regions. This article reviews the epidemiological characteristics, transmission routes, and control measures of SFTS.

Objective:To analyze the association of sedentary time and physical activity with the risk of developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in non-smoking women aged 40 years and above in Songjiang District, Shanghai.Methods:Based on a natural population-based cohort in Songjiang, a total of 18 707 non-smoking women who were aged 40 years and above and without COPD at baseline survey were enrolled in the study. Cox proportional risk regression model was used to analyze the associations of the duration of sedentary behavior, physical activity with the risk for COPD at baseline survey, and the hazard ratio ( HR) of risk for COPD and its 95% CI were calculated. Stratified analyses were performed based on age, BMI, history of respiratory diseases and so on. Sensitivity analyses were conducted by excluding the cases diagnosed with COPD within one year after the baseline survey. Results:As of March 31, 2024, a total of 691 new COPD cases had been recorded after a median follow-up time of 6.96 years with an incidence density of 53.22 per 10 000 person-years. After adjusting for relevant confounders, in the tertile subgroups of sedentary time, the risk for COPD reduced by 17% in the short sedentary time group compared with the long sedentary time group ( HR=0.83,95% CI:0.70-0.99). Compared with the low physical activity level and long sedentary time group, the risk for COPD reduced by 24% in the high physical activity level and short sedentary time group ( HR=0.76, 95% CI: 0.61-0.95) and by 23% in the low physical activity level and short sedentary time group ( HR=0.77, 95% CI: 0.60-0.97). Compared with the non-physical exercise and long sedentary time group, the risk for COPD reduced by 28% in the non-physical exercise and short sedentary time group ( HR=0.72, 95% CI: 0.60-0.87). These associations remained when the cases diagnosed with COPD within one year of the baseline survey were excluded. Conclusions:Increasing physical activity and reducing sedentary time have beneficial effects to prevent COPD in non-smoking women, and reducing sedentary time alone may also reduce the risk for COPD if increasing physical exercise or other physical activity is not possible.
