Objective To analyze and compare the diagnostic criteria of dampness syndrome in clinical studies and construct a dampness syndrome entry pool,so as to provide theoretical support for the development of dampness-related scales,and then provide reference for clinical research.Methods By searching the literature collected by CNKI,VIP and Wanfang data database from 1960 to 2023,the clinical research literature of dampness syndrome was searched and screened,and the diagnostic criteria of dampness syndrome were summarized and analyzed.Results A total of 7651 articles were retrieved from the above database,and 52 articles were finally included.9 diagnostic criteria were obtained by combining the screening of teaching materials.They are The National Standard of Chinese Medicine Clinical Diagnosis and Treatment of Chinese Medicine(GB/T16751.2-1997),Syndrome element differentiation,Traditional Chinese Medicine Syndrome Standards,Traditional Chinese Medicine Syndrome Differentiation and Diagnosis,Diagnostics of Traditional Chinese Medicine(Fifth edition,sixth edition,second edition of the new century,People's Health Commission edition,and tenth edition of the National Higher Traditional Chinese Medicine College Planning Textbook).The diagnostic methods can be divided into three kinds:narrative method,primary and secondary disease(or see disease)classification diagnosis method,and assigning method.There are a total of 36 symptom components,which can be divided into four groups:the accumulation of muscle and striae group,the obstruction of meridians and joints group,the internal accumulation of organs group,and the dampness and obstruction of orifices group.The National Standard of Chinese Medicine Clinical Diagnosis and Treatment of Chinese Medicine(GB/T16751.2-1997)has been cited for a maximum of 22 times,covering 16 diseases.Conclusion The National Standard of Chinese Medicine Clinical Diagnosis and Treatment of Chinese Medicine is the most widely used in clinical research,and the new version of national standard in 2021 is more suitable for the current diagnosis and clinical research of dampness syndrome.

Inflammation plays an important role in the development of acute lung injury (ALI). Severe pulmonary inflammation can cause acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) or even death. Expression of proinflammatory interleukin-1β(IL-1β) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in the process of pulmonary inflammation will further exacerbate the severity of ALI. The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of Palrnatine (Pa) on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced mouse ALI and its underlying mechanism. Pa, a natural product, has a wide range of pharmacological activities with the potential to protect against lung injury. Western blotting and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) assays were performed to detect the expression and translation of inflammatory genes and proteins in vitro and in vivo. Immunoprecipitation was used to detect the degree of P65 translocation into the nucleus. We also used molecular modeling to further clarify the mechanism of action. The results showed that Pa pretreatment could significantly inhibit the expression and secretion of the inflammatory cytokine IL-1β, and significantly reduce the protein level of the proinflammatory protease iNOS, in both in vivo and in vitro models induced by LPS. Further mechanism studies showed that Pa could significantly inhibit the activation of the protein kinase B (Akt)/nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway in the LPS-induced ALI mode and in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells. Through molecular dynamics simulation, we observed that Pa was bound to the catalytic pocket of Akt and effectively inhibited the biological activity of Akt. These results indicated that Pa significantly relieves LPS-induced ALI by activating the Akt/NF-κB signaling pathway.
