ObjectiveThis paper used the AGREE Ⅱ guideline evaluation tool to evaluate the quality of 14 clinical guidelines for acute myocardial infarction，aiming to provide reference for the formulation and improvement of the guidelines. MethodsClinical guidelines and expert consensus related to acute myocardial infarction were searched by web search. The search period ranges from January 1，2019 to November 1，2024 in CNKI，VIP，Wanfang Data，SinoMed，Web of Science，OVID， the International Guidelines Collaboration Network （GIN），the UK National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence （NICE），Yimaitong， and other platforms. Three researchers independently screened the literature and used AGREE Ⅱ to score the screening results. After ensuring that the researchers have a consistent understanding of each guideline，the quality of the guidelines was evaluated. After that，the ratings were analyzed by layer according to the issuing agency，category，method of formulation，and funding situation and compared longitudinally by rating time. The clinical guidelines and expert consensus were compared in terms of content and evidence. ResultsA total of 14 guidelines and consensus were included. The results of AGREE Ⅱ in the six areas in descending order were scope and purpose （62.82%±10.43%），rigor （62.40%±12.77%），editorial independence （62.11%±22.26%），participants （61.42%±11.65%），clarity of expression （59.98%±9.62%），and application （52.94%±16.90%） . Eleven of the guidelines were at level B， and three were at level A. In the stratified analysis，the score of the guideline formulated by the Chinese Medical Doctor Association was lower. There was little difference between the scores of Chinese/Western and Western medicine guidelines. The average score of the guidelines was higher than the consensus. Funded guidelines and consensus scores were higher. In the longitudinal comparison，the highest number of guidelines were developed in 2020 and 2021，while those developed in 2023 scored the highest. In the differential comparison analysis，the content of the guidelines was more comprehensive， and the evidence level was higher，while the content of the consensus was more novel， and the evidence was less. ConclusionThe AGREE Ⅱ score of the clinical guidelines for acute myocardial infarction is generally moderate，and there is room for improvement in terms of applicability. At the same time，the content quality of expert consensus should be improved，and more efforts should be made to develop and apply Chinese medicine guidelines for complications such as heart failure and microcirculatory obstruction after acute myocardial infarction.

Finally, we conclude the survey by deliberating on promising trends in transformer models within the context of drug discovery and other sciences.

Objective:To conduct a multi-center cross-sectional study of elderly patients with cognitive impairment based on real-world data; To analyze the clinical characteristics and core medication law of the disease population.Methods:The medical records of elderly patients diagnosed with cognitive impairment from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2024 were retrieved from Chinese Evidence-based TCM Database. Excel 2010 software was used to collect general information, TCM syndrome elements and syndrome types, use frequency of Chinese materia medica, property, taste, meridian tropism, efficacy classification and other information, using PivotTable to establish Chinese materia medica matrix. IBM SPSS Modeler 18.0 software was used to display the frequency of co-occurrence among high-frequency Chinese materia medica, and the association rules were analyzed based on the Apriori algorithm. R language 4.4.1 was used for clustering analysis on Chinese materia medica and the cluster pedigree and correlation heat map were drawn.Results:A total of 1 194 elderly patients with cognitive impairment were enrolled, with a mean age of (79.51±7.65) years, and the highest frequency of comorbidities was hypertension (891 cases, 74.62%); AD was the most frequent diagnosis of cognitive impairment (367 times, 30.74%). The proportion of mild cognitive impairment in the low value group of Systemic Immune Inflammation Index (SII) was relatively high, and the high value group of SII was mainly vascular dementia and AD. Wind-phlegm blocking syndrome (106 times, 13.73%) topped the list; phlegm was the most frequent element of pathogenicity (353 times, 45.73%), and meridians and collaterals (194 times, 25.13%). Totally 328 prescriptions were included, involving 308 kinds of Chinese materia medica. The total recorded frequency of Chinese materia medica was 5 665, with tonifying herbs constituting the most frequently used category, accounting for 1 633 times; the medicinal property of drugs for treating elderly patients with cognitive disorders was mostly warm (103 times, 33.44%), the taste was mostly bitter (141 times, 45.78%), and attributed to the liver meridian (145 times, 47.08%); among the two and three association rules, the drug pairs with the highest confidence were Gastrodiae Rhizoma→Uncariae Ramulus cum Uncis (97.22%) and Hyperici Perforati Herba→Acanthopanacis Senticosi Radix et Rhizoma seu Caulis+Alpiniae Oxyphyllae Fructus (97.06%); five medicinal combinations were obtained by high frequency drug clustering analysis.Conclusions:Elderly patients with cognitive impairment are mainly diagnosed with AD. There may be a potential correlation between SII level and the progression of cognitive impairment. The drugs are used to tonify the kidney and replenish essence, detoxify and unblock collaterals, replenish qi and activate blood circulation, and awaken the brain and open the orifices. Shengmai Decoction, Renshen Yangrong Decoction and other TCM classic prescriptions can be used in clinic.

With increasing aging， cognitive impairment in elderly coronary heart disease is a "disease group" with high morbidity and mortality in the senior population， which seriously affects the health and quality of life of the elderly. This paper takes the "cardio-cerebral circuit" as the basis of co-morbidity， and under the guidance of the cardio-cerebral homoeopathy， based on the temporal sequential characteristics of the evolution of the disease mechanism of cognitive impairment in elderly coronary heart disease， we construct a “disease-syndrome-phase” prevention and treatment strategy based on the time-sequential characteristics of the pathogenesis of the disease mechanism of "deficiency-blood stasis-toxicity"， from the perspective of pathogenicity of the disease mechanism in time-phase and the spatial multidimensionality of cardio-cerebral homoeopathy. The prevention and treatment strategy of the "disease-syndrome-phase" is constructed from the perspective of the temporal phase of the disease mechanism and the multidimensionality of the space of cardio-cerebral homoeopathy. In the earlier stage， "kidney deficiency and brain emptiness are the foundation"， in the attack stage， "turbid stasis and brain injury are the key"， and in the progression stage， "toxicity and brain damage are the changes". It is emphasized that replenishing the deficiency and benefiting the kidneys to restore the smooth flow of collaterals， eliminating blood stasis and removing turbidity to promote the enrichment of blood， and detoxifying and clearing the heart to tranquilize the spirit and benefit the brain， the spatiotemporal thinking of cognitive impairment of coronary heart disease in the elderly is initially constructed with the spatial dimension to identify the location of the disease， and the temporal dimension to determine the stage of the disease， which will provide a theoretical basis for the spatiotemporal diagnostic and treatments for the heart and brain co-morbidities of TCM.

Taking " harmony of body and spirit" as the theoretical core in Huangdi Neijing and the functional nature and executive structure of the five emotions system as clues, this paper explores and analyzes the relevant theories of the five emotions system in ancient Chinese medicine literature. It is found that the five emotions system is a highly ordered and integrated collection of five functional states. It often resides in the five zang viscera, it operates between the meridians and the xuanfu through the elevation and movement of the qi, and it is the pivotal point for the operation of the qi and blood of the organism, the interactive conduction of information, and the unity of form, emotion, and qi. Therefore, this paper starts from the point of view of system science. It is proposed that the primordial spirit exercises control over the five emotions and the five emotions provide nutrition to the primordial spirit, and that the two are not " islands of information" but have a dynamic and hierarchical internal connection. The executive structure of the five emotions system, namely, the meridians, the xuanfu, and the five zang viscera, is the pivot, and it is recognized that the operation of the five emotions system is a process with self-organizing characteristics and orderly and eternal motion. We think of the qi, blood, ying, and essence as the basis of occurrence, the meridian as the execution channel, and the xuanfu as the place for the spiritual mechanism to enter and exit; the five zang viscera serve as a dwelling place, and ministerial fire serves as the source of energy. This paper serves as reference for future research related to the executive structure of the five emotions system of traditional Chinese medicine.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics and molecular basis for children and adolescents with monogenic diabetes.Methods:A retrospective analysis was carried out for the clinical manifestations and laboratory data of 116 children and adolescents diagnosed with diabetes at Ningbo Women and Children′s Hospital from January 2020 to March 2023. Whole exome sequencing and mitochondrial gene sequencing were carried out on 21 children with suspected monogenic diabetes.Results:A total of 10 cases of monogenic diabetes were diagnosed, all of which were Maturity-onset Diabetes Of the Young (MODY). Six cases of MODY2 were due to GCK gene mutations, 1 case of MODY3 was due to HNF1A gene mutation, 2 cases of MODY12 were due to ABCC8 gene mutations, and 1 case of MODY13 was due to KCNJ11 gene mutation. Nine of the 10 patients with MODY had no typical symptoms of diabetes. A family history of diabetes was significantly more common in the MODY group compared with the T1DM and T2DM groups ( P<0.05). The BMI of the MODY group was higher than that of the T1DM group ( P<0.05). The initial blood glucose level was lower than that of the T1DM group ( P<0.05), and there was no significant difference compared with the T2DM group. The fasting C-peptide level of the MODY group was higher than that of the T1DM group ( P<0.05), and there was no significant difference compared with the T2DM group. Glycosylated hemoglobin of the MODY group was lower than both the T1DM and T2DM groups ( P<0.05). Conclusion:In this study, MODY has accounted for the majority of monogenic diabetes among children and adolescents, and the common mutations were those of the GCK gene in association with MODY2. Blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin of children with MODY were slightly increased, whilst the islet cell function had remained, and the clinical manifestations and laboratory tests had overlapped with those of type 2 diabetes. WES and mitochondrial gene sequencing can clarify the etiology of monogenic diabetes and facilitate precise treatment.

Ulcerative colitis （UC） is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease with complex etiology. The pathogenesis of this disease， due to a combination of factors， is complex and has not yet been elucidated. Among them， intestinal mucosal barrier damage is the basic pathological change of UC. As a non-destructive response of cells， autophagy regulates intestinal mucosal immunity， inflammation， oxidative stress， and bacterial homeostasis through degradation and reabsorption to actively repair damaged intestinal mucosal barrier， exerting a key role in the occurrence and development of UC. The disease is mainly treated clinically with aminosalicylic acid preparations， glucocorticoids， and immunosuppressants. Western medicine treatment of the disease has a fast onset of effect， and the short-term efficacy is definite， but the long-term application is easy to be accompanied by more adverse reactions. Moreover， some drugs are expensive， bringing great physical and mental pain and economic burden to patients. Therefore， it is urgent to explore new therapies with stable efficacy and mild adverse effects. In recent years， a large number of studies have shown that Chinese medicine can regulate autophagy of the intestinal mucosa with multiple targets and effects and repair the intestinal mucosal barrier function， thereby inhibiting the development of UC. Many experiments have shown that the active ingredient or monomers and compound formulas of Chinese medicine can improve the immunity of the intestinal mucosa， inflammation， oxidative stress， and flora by regulating the level of autophagy to maintain the normal function of the intestinal mucosal barrier to effectively intervene in UC， providing a new measure for the prevention and treatment of UC. However， there is a lack of systematic review of Chinese medicine in regulating the level of autophagy in the intestinal mucosa for the prevention and treatment of UC. Therefore， based on the current research on UC， autophagy process， and Chinese medicine treatment， this article reviewed the relationship of autophagy and its key target proteins with UC to clarify the key role of autophagy in UC production and systematically summarized Chinese medicines targeting the regulation of autophagy to treat UC in recent years to provide new ideas for the treatment and drug development of UC.

Ulcerative colitis （UC） is a chronic， non-specific inflammatory bowel disease. The pathogenesis of this disease is complex and is attributed to multiple factors. Intestinal mucosal barrier damage is the basic pathological change of UC， and intestinal flora disorder is one of the important characteristics of UC. Intestinal flora plays a key role in the pathological process of UC by regulating intestinal mucosal immunity and inflammatory response to repair the damaged intestinal mucosal barrier. At present， western medicine has the advantages of rapid action onset and significant short-term efficacy， but the curative effect of long-term use is not good， accompanied by many adverse reactions， causing great physical and mental pain to patients. Therefore， it is urgent to explore new treatment methods with definite long-term efficacy and mild adverse reactions. A large number of studies have shown that Chinese medicine can regulate intestinal flora through multiple targets in an all-around way， restore the homeostasis of the flora， and repair the damaged intestinal mucosal barrier， thereby inhibiting the progression of UC. Numerous studies have shown that the active components， monomers， and compounds of Chinese medicine can effectively antagonize UC by regulating the intestinal flora to improve the intestinal mucosal immunity， reduce the inflammatory response of the intestinal mucosa， and restore the normal physiological function of the intestinal mucosal barrier， providing a new strategy for UC prevention and treatment. Although there are some studies of the regulation of intestinal flora by Chinese medicine to prevent and treat UC， those studies have the shortcomings of systematic and comprehensive inadequacy. Therefore， based on the research status of UC， intestinal flora， and Chinese medicine treatment， this study reviewed the relationship between intestinal flora and UC and clarified the key role of intestinal flora in the occurrence and development of UC. At the same time， this paper comprehensively summarized the Chinese medicine that targeted the regulation of intestinal flora for the treatment of UC in the past five years to provide new strategies and ideas for UC treatment.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) for radiation-induced lung injury (RILI) and the underlying mechanism. Methods Forty-five healthy adult male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into control, model, and BMSCs groups. The model and BMSCs groups received a single irradiation dose of 20 Gy to the chest, while the control group did not receive X-ray irradiation. For the BMSCs group, an injection of 1 × 10⁶ BMSCs cells was administered via the tail vein within 6 h after irradiation. In the 5th week, the lung tissue was taken to observe pathological changes with HE staining; examine the expression of the inflammatory factors interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) with immunohistochemical staining; observe the polarization of macrophages with immunofluorescence staining; and measure the expression of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition markers E-cadherin, N-cadherin, and vimentin proteins by Western blot. Results After radiation, the model group developed pulmonary vasodilation and congestion with septal thickening and inflammatory cell infiltration, and these changes were markedly reduced in the BMSCs group. The model group showed significantly down-regulated expression of IL-6 and TNF-α compared with significantly increased levels in the model group (P < 0.01, P < 0.05). Treatment with BMSCs significantly increased the polarization of lung macrophages towards the M2 type, while significantly decreasing the abnormally increased N-cadherin and vimentin levels in RILI mice (P < 0.05, P < 0.01). Conclusion BMSCs have therapeutic effects for RILI mice, which may be through promoting macrophage polarization from M1 to M2.
