As the core vehicle for preserving and transmitting traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) academic thought and clinical experience, the establishment of a robust quality evaluation system for TCM clinical case reports is a crucial component in the current standardization and modernization of TCM. Based on the practical experience of constructing the China Clinical Cases Library of Traditional Chinese Medicine by the China Association of Chinese Medicine, this study conducted a comprehensive analysis of critical challenges, including insufficient authenticity and unfocused evaluation criteria. It proposed a three-dimensional evaluation framework grounded in the structure-process-outcome logic, encompassing three dimensions of authenticity and standardization, characteristics and advantages, application and translational impact. This framework integrated 12 key evaluation indicators in a systematic manner. The model preserved the academic characteristics of TCM syndrome differentiation and treatment, while aligning with modern scientific research standards, achieving a balance between individualized TCM experience and standardized evaluation. Concurrently, this study provided theoretical foundations and methodological guidance for evaluating the quality of TCM clinical cases, contributing significantly to the inheritance of TCM knowledge, evidence-based practice, and the reform of talent evaluation mechanisms.

BACKGROUND:Both calorie restriction and time-restricted feeding,as two common dietary patterns,have been shown to improve health by regulating metabolism.However,the difference between these dietary patterns,metabolic indices,as well as the gut microbiota still requires further attention.OBJECTIVE:To explore the differences of calorie restriction and time-restricted feeding on the metabolic indices and gut microbiota of mice.METHODS:The C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into three groups of ad libitum,calorie restriction,and time-restricted feeding(n=6 per group)for 28 weeks of dietary intervention.Various parameters such as body weight,food intake,glucose tolerance,serum fasting insulin,Homeostasis Model Assessment of Insulin Resistance,and leptin were measured.The impact of different interventions on the gut microbiota structure in mice was explored using 16S rRNA sequence analysis.Key operational taxonomic units responsive to dietary interventions were identified through LEfSe analysis.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the ad libitum group,the body weight,food intake,area under the glucose tolerance curve of the calorie restriction and time-restricted feeding groups were decreased(P<0.01),and the serum leptin was decreased(P<0.05).The fasting insulin level and serum leptin level of the calorie restriction group were decreased(P<0.05)and were significantly lower than those of the time-restricted feeding group(P<0.05);homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance decreased in the calorie restriction group(P<0.01).(2)Compared with the ad libitum group,the αdiversity of gut microbiota in the calorie restriction group and the time-restricted feeding group was decreased(P<0.05),but the diversity of the time-restricted feeding group was slightly lower than that in the calorie restriction group.(3)There were 15 key operational taxonomic units related to calorie restriction and the time-restricted feeding intervention,of which 8 were positively correlated with metabolic phenotypes and their abundance decreased,and 3 were negatively correlated with metabolic phenotypes and their abundance increased(P<0.05).OTU819 Lachnospiraceae_UCG-006 was positively correlated with body weight,area under the glucose tolerance curve,homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance,and fasting insulin,while OTU1397 Muribaculaceae was negatively correlated with these indicators.The results show that both calorie restriction and the time-restricted feeding intervention can improve the weight and glucose metabolism of mice,and both intervention modes caused the remodeling of the gut microbiota,which helped to improve the metabolic disorders.
