Healthy lifestyles and good living habits are effective strategies and important approaches to prevent chronic non-communicable diseases. With the development of evidence-based medicine, the evidence translation system has made some achievements in clinical practice. There is, however, no comprehensive, professional and efficient system for translating lifestyle evidence globally. Therefore, the Health Lifestyle Evidence (HLSE) Group of Lanzhou University constructed the HLSE Evidence Translation System (https://hlse.cn/), with the aim of synthesizing, evaluating, translating, and applying lifestyle-related evidence resources. This paper aims to introduce the functional module design of the evidence translation system, the system development process and testing, introduce the interface design and function demonstration, and explain the significance of constructing the HLSE.

Post-stroke depression is a common complication after a stroke. Based on the theory of ＂deficiency of heart qi leading to sadness＂recorded in Huangdi Neijing, our team proposes that deficiency of heart qi is the basic pathogenesis of post-stroke depression, with sadness being its main manifestation. Therefore, we advocate treating post-stroke depression from the perspective of the heart, and clinically, it can be divided into four stages: heart-liver stage, heart-lung stage, heart-spleen stage, and heart-kidney stage. Treating post-stroke depression with the principle of regulating qi and nourishing the heart, patients in the heart-liver and heart-lung stages are mainly middle-aged and young adults, with a pathological nature of qi stagnation and mild deficiency of heart qi, and therefore, the method of promoting the flow of meridians and regulating qi should be adopted. In contrast, patients in the heart-spleen and heart-kidney stages are mainly middle-aged and elderly, with a pathological nature of qi deficiency and severe deficiency of heart qi, and therefore, nourishment and tonification should be prioritized. In response to the above four stages, our team has achieved good clinical efficacy by administering Xiaoyao Powder, Baihe Dihuang Decoction, Ganmai Dazao Decoction and Jingui Shenqi Pill respectively. This study discusses the approach to treating post-stroke depression from the perspective of a "deficiency of heart qi leading to sadness" by examining three aspects: the theoretical basis of Chinese and Western medicine to treat post-stroke depression from the heart, the basic pathogenesis and staging of post-stroke depression, and the treatment principle of regulating qi and nourishing the heart. The study also briefly analyzes the clinical experience of the medications used for this condition to provide a reference for the treatment of post-stroke depression.

Chaihu Guizhi Decoction is an excellent prescription of ZHANG Zhongjing;however,nowadays the application of Chaihu Guizhi Decoction is primarily derived from the text.The xiang thinking is the source of traditional Chinese medicine thinking.Understanding Chaihu Guizhi Decoction from the xiang thinking,it is easy to perceive the true meaning of ZHANG Zhongjing,and grasp the location of the disease and the patient's overall qi,so as to make better use of this formula.This article discusses the understanding of Chaihu Guizhi Decoction from five perspectives:firstly,it gives an overview of the xiang thinking,pointing out the source and essential value of the xiang thinking;secondly,it analyses the disease position and the patient's qi of Chaihu Guizhi Decoction under the perspective of the xiang thinking as a whole;thirdly,it discusses the disease position and the patient's qi of the original text of Chaihu Guizhi Decoction from the xiang thinking;fourthly,it discusses how to understand the principle of formula formation and the main and minor parts of Chaihu Guizhi Decoction by xiang thinking;finally,it analyses the primary medicines in Chaihu Guizhi Decoction by using xiang thinking based on the records of Shennong Bencao Jing.Based on these five points,we hope to reveal the traditional Chinese medicine thinking behind Chaihu Guizhi Decoction,and provide new ideas for the clinical application of Chaihu Guizhi Decoction.

Objective:To investigate the current situation of the use of transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt (TIPS) for portal hypertension, which should aid the development of TIPS in China.Methods:The China Portal Hypertension Alliance (CHESS) initiated this study that comprehensively investigated the basic situation of TIPS for portal hypertension in China through network research. The survey included the following: the number of surgical cases, main indications, the development of Early-TIPS, TIPS for portal vein cavernous transformation, collateral circulation embolization, intraoperative portal pressure gradient measurement, commonly used stent types, conventional anticoagulation and time, postoperative follow-up, obstacles, and the application of domestic instruments.Results:According to the survey, a total of 13 527 TIPS operations were carried out in 545 hospitals participating in the survey in 2021, and 94.1% of the hospital had the habit of routine follow-up after TIPS. Most hospitals believed that the main indications of TIPS were the control of acute bleeding (42.6%) and the prevention of rebleeding (40.7%). 48.1% of the teams carried out early or priority TIPS, 53.0% of the teams carried out TIPS for the cavernous transformation of the portal vein, and 81.0% chose routine embolization of collateral circulation during operation. Most of them used coils and biological glue as embolic materials, and 78.5% of the team routinely performed intraoperative portal pressure gradient measurements. In selecting TIPS stents, 57.1% of the hospitals woulel choose Viator-specific stents, 57.2% woulel choose conventional anticoagulation after TIPS, and the duration of anticoagulation was between 3-6 months (55.4%). The limitation of TIPS surgery was mainly due to cost (72.3%) and insufficient understanding of doctors in related departments (77.4%). Most teams accepted the domestic instruments used in TIPS (92.7%).Conclusions:This survey shows that TIPS treatment is an essential part of treating portal hypertension in China. The total number of TIPS cases is far from that of patients with portal hypertension. In the future, it is still necessary to popularize TIPS technology and further standardize surgical indications, routine operations, and instrument application.

These structures are closely associated with a range of diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders, cancer and infectious diseases, highlighting the significance of understanding LLPS mechanisms for elucidating disease pathogenesis, and exploring potential therapeutic interventions. In this review, we delineate recent advancements in LLPS research, emphasizing its pathological relevance, therapeutic considerations, and the pivotal role of bioinformatic tools and databases in facilitating LLPS investigations. Additionally, we undertook a comprehensive analysis of bioinformatic resources dedicated to LLPS research in order to elucidate their functionality and applicability. By providing comprehensive insights into current LLPS-related bioinformatics resources, this review highlights its implications for human health and disease.

Objective To explore the risk factors for acute thrombosis of arteriovenous fistulae(AF)in maintenance hemodialysis(MHD)patients and the construction of a Nomogram prediction model.Methods A total of 418 patients who underwent MHD treatment in the outpatient clinic of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang Medical University from December 2020 to December 2022 were selected for the study.The patients were divided into the acute thrombosis group(n=32)and non-acute thrombosis group(n=386)according to whether acute thrombosis of AF was formed or not.The influencing factors affecting acute thrombosis of AF in MHD patients were analyzed using univariate and multivariate analysis.A Nomogram predic-tion model was established based on their independent risk factors,and Bootstrap was used to validate the efficacy of the Nomo-gram model.Results The complicated diabetes,complicated hypotension,puncture failure on dialysis,calcium-phosphorus product,hypersensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP),total cholesterol(TC),and low density lipoprotein-cholesterol(LDL-C)levels in patients in the acute thrombosis group were significantly higher than those in the non-acute thrombosis group(P＜0.05);logistic regression analysis showed that diabetes,hypotension,puncture failure on dialysis,calcium-phosphorus product elevation,high hs-CRP and high LDL-C level were the independent risk factors affecting acute thrombosis of AF in patients undergoing MHD(P＜0.05);the Nomogram model was constructed based on the 6 independent risk factors,and the consistency index(C-index)of the model was 0.893(95％confidence interval:0.833-0.928);in addition,its calibration curve and the standard curve were well fitted,the area under the curve was 0.918.Conclusion Diabetes,hypotension,puncture failure during dialysis,calcium-phosphorus product elevation,and high levels of hs-CRP and LDL-C are the risk factors for acute thrombosis of AF in patients undergoing MHD,and the Nomogram model constructed based on the independent risk factors has excellent predictive ability in predicting the occurrence of acute thrombosis of AF in patients undergoing MHD,which can help in the early screening of patients with high risk of clinical acute thrombosis.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for early colorectal cancer and its precancerous lesions by using novel lifting clip-assisted traction.Methods:From March to July 2021, 42 patients with colorectal lesions who received ESD at the Digestive Endoscopy Center of Shanghai Tenth People's Hospital were included in the retrospective study. Nineteen patients were enrolled as the observation group using the novel lifting clip, and 23 others in the control group without the help of an auxiliary method. The operation time, the hospital stay, hospital expenses and the incidence of complications of the two groups were compared.Results:All 42 patients successfully received ESD. The operation time of the observation group was significantly shorter than that of the control group [31.00 (21.00, 58.00) min VS 60.00 (30.00, 75.00) min, Z=-2.04, P=0.04]. The postoperative hospital stay of the observation group was significantly shorter than that of the control group [2.00 (1.00, 2.00) d VS 2.00 (2.00, 3.00) d, Z=-1.99, P=0.04]. The hospital cost was lower than that of the control group, but the difference was not statistically significant (19 331.42 ± 3 481.20 yuan VS 19 802.40 ± 2 548.50 yuan, t=-0.49, P=0.63). No intraoperative perforation occurred in either group. There was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss between the observation group and the control group [0.00 (0.00, 5.00) mL VS 3.00 (0.00, 7.00) mL, Z=-1.42, P=0.16]. There was 1 case of postoperative abdominal pain in the observation group, 2 cases of postoperative abdominal pain and 1 case of fever in the control group. There was no significant difference in the overall incidence of postoperative complications between the observation group and the control group [5.3% (1/19) VS 13.0% (3/23), χ2=0.73, P=0.39]. Conclusion:The novel lifting clip-assisted colorectal ESD is safe and effective, which can significantly shorten the ESD operation time and postoperative hospital stay without increasing the economic burden of patients.

Primary hepatic carcinoma, hepatic carcinoma for short, is a common gastrointestinal tumor with an insidious onset and rapid progression, and its incidence rate is increasing year by year, seriously threatening the life and health of our people. At present, there is still a lack of specific markers for early diagnosis and treatment of hepatic carcinoma, so the research on its biological characteristics and pathogenesis has become very urgent. Metabolic reprogramming is one of the main characteristics of tumor cells, and lipid metabolic reprogramming is involved in the occurrence and development of hepatic carcinoma. Therefore, the key metabolic enzymes and regulatory molecules in the process of lipid metabolism are considered as important targets for the diagnosis and treatment of hepatic carcinoma. This paper mainly focuses on the signaling pathways and regulatory molecules related to hepatocellular carcinoma lipid metabolism, as well as the related anti-hepatoma drugs, so as to provide new ideas for the prevention and treatment of hepatic carcinoma.

Objective:To develop a novel posterior circulation score (PCS) based on pretreatment diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) for predicting futile recanalization (FR) of acute basilar artery occlusion (BAO) after endovascular therapy (EVT).Methods:A prospectively registered consecutive cohort of BAO patients treated with EVT in Beijing Tiantan Hospital, Capital Medical University during a six-year period was reviewed. This novel DWI-based PCS (DWI-PCS) was calculated according to the characteristics of acute infarction at four sites (pons, midbrain, thalamus and cerebellum), with a normal score of 0 point and a full score of 16 points. FR was defined as the occurrence of poor outcome (modified Rankin Scale score>3) at 90 days despite successful recanalization (modified Thrombolysis In Cerebral Infarction ≥ 2b) at final angiogram after EVT. The independent association of DWI-PCS with FR was evaluated by multivariable Logistic regression, and the predictive discrimination of DWI-PCS was measured by the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Additionally, the effects of DWI-PCS on FR in different subgroups stratified by age, time window, stroke severity and etiology were explored.Results:Of 109 patients in this study, 48 (44.0%) suffered from FR. The multivariable Logistic analysis showed that DWI-PCS was significantly associated with FR (adjusted OR=1.31, 95% CI 1.07-1.62, P=0.01). The ROC curve analysis demonstrated that the area under the curve of DWI-PCS for predicting FR was 0.74 (95% CI 0.65-0.83), and the optimal cut-off value was ≥ 3 points (sensitivity 0.75, specificity 0.66, accuracy 0.70). Finally, the effects of DWI-PCS on FR were not found to be different across all subgroups ( P>0.10 for all interactions). Conclusions:The novel DWI-PCS may be a valid and reliable predictor of FR in BAO patients treated with EVT. Nevertheless, external validation with blinded outcome is still needed to confirm its performance before clinical application.
