Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), through its multi-target and systematic regulatory effects, has demonstrated unique advantages in the treatment of gastric precancerous lesions (GPL). At present, TCM theoretical research on GPL is mainly reflected in three aspects, the integration of macroscopic syndrome differentiation, the inflammation-carcinoma transformation mechanism, as well as the systematization and scientization of theoretical inheritance from famous TCM practitioners. High-quality evidence-based research findings serve as the foundation for clinical practice guidelines on GPL, and TCM has gained international academic recognition in the field of GPL prevention and treatment. Research on TCM mechanisms has yielded a series of important outcomes in the aspects of signaling pathways, gene expression regulation, cellular epigenetics, histone modification, and intestinal microecology. It is proposed that future research on GPL should focus on four key directions, establishing multi-omics data, exploring targeted intervention strategies on key regulatory nodes, advancing the standardization process of integrated traditional Chinese and western medicine prevention and treatment technologies, and constructing stratified screening and intervention platforms. The in-depth integration of TCM microcosmic mechanism of action with its macroscopic syndrome differentiation and treatment system, coupled with interdisciplinary research, will provide valuable references for the clinical treatment and scientific research of GPL.

To interpret the evidence-to-decision (EtD) framework and to illustrate its application in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) guideline development using the example of the Pharmacovigilance Guideline of Chinese Patent Medicine, thereby providing methodological references for TCM guideline standardization. Based on the core three stages of the EtD framework (formulating the question, making an assessment of the evidence, and drawing conclusions), critical decision points and evaluation evidence within the evidence-translation process were systematically addressed, aligning with the purpose, scope, and key questions of the guideline. Qualitative research methods, such as the nominal group technique, were employed to formulate recommendations. The analysis was conducted based on the EtD framework. During question formulation, the specific characteristics and practical needs of pharmacovigilance for Chinese patent medicines were clarified, focusing on the core objective of safety assurance throughout the product lifecycle. In the evidence assessment, multi-source evidence was integrated, including policy documents, literature research, and expert consensus, completing the evidence evaluation. Finally, in recommendation-forming, dispersed research evidence and expert experience were synthesized into consensus, culminating in the guideline's completion through solicitation of opinions and peer review. The EtD framework provides a structured tool for evidence-to-decision translation in TCM guideline development, effectively enhancing the transparency and scientific rigor of the process. Therefore, it is recommended that TCM guideline development adopt the EtD framework to improve the evidence-to-decision process with TCM characteristics.

Objective:
To explore the interrelationships between mental vulnerability, cognitive emotion regulation strategies, and positive psychological capital in medical postgraduates, so as to provide precise intervention targets for mental health services in universities.
Methods:
From April to June 2025, a convenience sampling method was used to select 1 461 medical postgraduates from three colleges in Hubei Province. Participants were assessed using the Mental Vulnerability Questionnaire (MVQ), the Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire-Chinese Version (CERQ-C) and the Positive Psychological Capital Questionnaire (PPQ). The network analysis model was constructed using a Gaussian graphical model.
Results:
The network analysis revealed that the edge connection between somatic symptoms and mental symptoms was the strongest, followed by the connection between refocus on planning and positive reappraisal within cognitive emotion regulation, with edge weights of 0.69 and 0.59, respectively. Interpersonal problems within psychological vulnerability exhibited the highest expected influence( EI =1.27), serving as the core node of the network. Rumination within cognitive emotion regulation demonstrated the highest bridge expected influence( BEI =0.33), playing a critical connecting role among psychological vulnerability, cognitive emotion regulation, and positive psychological capital.
Conclusion
In the mental health network of medical postgraduates, mental vulnerability, cognitive emotion regulation, and positive psychological capital interact through their respective key dimensions, jointly affect overall mental health.

Objective:To explore the effect of the forward moving pelvic floor exercise program in urinary incontinence management among patients undergoing radical prostatectomy.Methods:From June 2022 to January 2024, 150 patients undergoing radical prostatectomy of the Urology Surgery Department, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were selected using convenience sampling. Patients were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, with 75 cases in each group. Control group received conventional perioperative management for prostate cancer, while observation group implemented a forward moving pelvic floor exercise program in addition to conventional management. The incidence of urinary incontinence, urinary control capabilities before and after intervention (including maximum urinary flow rate, average urinary flow rate, voided urine volume, and residual urine volume), and quality of life scores [evaluated using the Chinese version of the Incontinence Quality of Life Questionnaire (I-QOL) ] were compared between two groups of patients.Results:The incidence of urinary incontinence of observation group was lower than that of control group. Furthermore, patients with urinary incontinence in observation group exhibited significantly lower urine leakage volume and fewer episodes of urinary incontinence over 24 hours at one month postoperatively compared to control group, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in maximum urinary flow rate, average urinary flow rate, voided urine volume, or residual urine volume between the two groups before intervention ( P>0.05). Following intervention, both groups demonstrated increased maximum urinary flow rate, average urinary flow rate, and voided urine volume compared to baseline, with observation group exhibiting higher values than control group ( P<0.05), and residual urine volume of both groups decreased compared to baseline, with observation group showing lower values than control group, these differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The difference in I-QOL scores between the two groups before intervention was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Following intervention, I-QOL scores decreased in both groups, but observation group had higher score than control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The forward moving pelvic floor exercise program effectively reduces the incidence of urinary incontinence in patients undergoing radical prostatectomy, alleviates the severity of incontinence, and improves both urodynamic outcomes and quality of life.
