Based on the opening-closing-pivot theory, this paper proposes that adolescent bipolar disorder is closely associated with taiyin (太阴), shaoyang (少阳), and jueyin (厥阴) channels. The principal pathogenesis involves dysfunction of the opening function of taiyin, impaired pivot function of shaoyang, and failure of the closing function of jueyin. Accordingly, the therapeutic principles include regulating taiyin to restore the ascending and descending movement of qi, harmonizing shaoyang to facilitate the pivot mechanism, and balancing yin and yang to reinforce the closing and storing function of jueyin. In clinical practice, Yihuang Powder (益黄散) and Tongxie Important Formula (痛泻要方) are commonly prescribed to regulate the qi movement of taiyin and restore its ascending and transporting functions, while Xiaochaihu Decoction (小柴胡汤) and Sini Powder (四逆散) are used to regulate the shaoyang pivot, and Wumei Pill (乌梅丸), Danggui Sini Decoction (当归四逆汤), and Huanglian Ejiao Decoction (黄连阿胶汤) combined with Shaoyao Gancao Decoction (芍药甘草汤) are employed to harmonize the jueyin closing mechanism. In addition, traditional daoyin (导引) exercise yi jin jing (易筋经) is incorporated to simultaneously regulate the body and mind by guiding internal regulation through external movement, thereby calming the body and tranquilizing the mind.

Objective:To study the effects of remimazolam on stress response index, T lymphocyte subsets and postoperative delirium in patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy.Methods:A total of 120 patients with breast cancer who underwent modified radical mastectomy in our hospital from Aug. 2024 to Dec. 2024 were separated into the control group (n=60, anesthetic induction and maintenance with Propofol) and the observation group (n=60, anesthetic induction and maintenance with remimazolam) according to random number table method, and the other anesthetic drugs were the same. The operation time, anesthesia recovery time, postoperative delirium and cognitive dysfunction of the two groups were observed, and the changes of stress response indexes and T lymphocyte subsets indexes at different time points were compared, and the adverse reactions after anesthesia were counted.Results:The incidence of postoperative delirium and cognitive dysfunction in the observation group was lower than that in the control group ( x2=4.62, 5.18, P < 0.05), and there was no statistically significant difference in operation time or anesthesia recovery time between the two groups ( t=0.43, 1.71, P > 0.05). The observation group had lower serum cortisol (Cor), norepinephrine (NE) and epinephrine (E) levels 30 min after anesthesia induction (T 1) and immediately after surgery (T 2) ( t=5.53, 6.71, 9.33, 6.74, 7.26, 8.77, P < 0.05), while the comparison of those indexes before surgery (T 0) and 12 h after surgery (T 3) showed no statistically significant difference ( t=1.19, 1.85, 0.90, 1.55, 1.64, 1.81, P > 0.05). The levels of CD3 +T, CD4 +T and CD4 +/CD8 + in the observation group were higher than those in the control group at T 1, T 2 and T 3 ( t=2.21, 4.94, 4.77, 4.44, 6.24, 7.07, 2.11, 2.56, 2.15, P < 0.05), and there was no statistically significant difference in those indexes between the two groups at T 0 ( t=0.76, 0.79, 1.51, P > 0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions after anesthesia showed no statistically significant difference between the two groups [25.00% (15/60) and 33.33% (20/60) ] ( χ2=1.008, P > 0.05) . Conclusion:The induction and maintenance of remimazolam anesthesia can effectively reduce the incidence of postoperative delirium and cognitive dysfunction in patients with modified radical mastectomy, relieve the body stress response of patients, and effectively reduce the influence of anesthesia on T lymphocytes.

Objective:To retrospectively analyze the treatment status of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) in newly diagnosed patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in China.Methods:Data of chronic phase (CP) and accelerated phase (AP) CML patients diagnosed from January 2006 to December 2022 from 77 centers, ≥18 years old, and receiving initial imatinib, nilotinib, dasatinib or flumatinib-therapy within 6 months after diagnosis in China with complete data were retrospectively interrogated. The choice of initial TKI, current TKI medications, treatment switch and reasons, treatment responses and outcomes as well as the variables associated with them were analyzed.Results:6 893 patients in CP ( n=6 453, 93.6%) or AP ( n=440, 6.4%) receiving initial imatinib ( n=4 906, 71.2%), nilotinib ( n=1 157, 16.8%), dasatinib ( n=298, 4.3%) or flumatinib ( n=532, 7.2%) -therapy. With the median follow-up of 43 ( IQR 22-75) months, 1 581 (22.9%) patients switched TKI due to resistance ( n=1 055, 15.3%), intolerance ( n=248, 3.6%), pursuit of better efficacy ( n=168, 2.4%), economic or other reasons ( n=110, 1.6%). The frequency of switching TKI in AP patients was significantly-higher than that in CP patients (44.1% vs 21.5%, P<0.001), and more AP patients switched TKI due to resistance than CP patients (75.3% vs 66.1%, P=0.011). Multi-variable analyses showed that male, lower HGB concentration and ELTS intermediate/high-risk cohort were associated with lower cytogenetic and molecular responses rate and poor outcomes in CP patients; higher WBC count and initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher response rates; Ph + ACA at diagnosis, poor PFS. However, Sokal intermediate/high-risk cohort was only significantly-associated with lower CCyR and MMR rates and the poor PFS. Lower HGB concentration and larger spleen size were significantly-associated with the lower cytogenetic and molecular response rates in AP patients; initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher treatment response rates; lower PLT count, higher blasts and Ph + ACA, poorer TFS; Ph + ACA, poorer OS. Conclusion:At present, the vast majority of newly-diagnosed CML-CP or AP patients could benefit from TKI treatment in the long term with the good treatment responses and survival outcomes.

Objective Previous studies on the association between lipid profiles and chronic kidney disease(CKD)have yielded inconsistent results and no defined thresholds for blood lipids. Methods A prospective cohort study including 32,351 subjects who completed baseline and follow-up surveys over 5 years was conducted.Restricted cubic splines and Cox models were used to examine the association between the lipid profiles and CKD.A regression discontinuity design was used to determine the cutoff value of lipid profiles that was significantly associated with increased the risk of CKD. Results Over a median follow-up time of 2.2(0.5,4.2)years,648(2.00%)subjects developed CKD.The lipid profiles that were significantly and linearly related to CKD included total cholesterol(TC),triglycerides(TG),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),TC/HDL-C,and TG/HDL-C,whereas low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)and LDL-C/HDL-C were nonlinearly correlated with CKD.TC,TG,TC/HDL-C,and TG/HDL-C showed an upward jump at the cutoff value,increasing the risk of CKD by 0.90%,1.50%,2.30%,and 1.60%,respectively,whereas HDL-C showed a downward jump at the cutoff value,reducing this risk by 1.0%.Female and participants with dyslipidemia had a higher risk of CKD,while the cutoff values for the different characteristics of the population were different. Conclusion There was a significant association between lipid profiles and CKD in a prospective cohort from Northwest China,while TG,TC/HDL-C,and TG/HDL-C showed a stronger risk association.The specific cutoff values of lipid profiles may provide a clinical reference for screening or diagnosing CKD risk.
