ObjectiveTo compare the clinical efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） manipulative reduction combined with small splint fixation versus surgical treatment for type A distal radius fracture （DRF） and to explore the factors influencing the choice of treatment. MethodsA multi-center retrospective study was conducted， collecting data from 1237 type A DRF patients treated in 11 hospitals in Jiangsu province from September， 2023 to April， 2025. Among them， 851 patients in the TCM group received manipulative reduction combined with small splint fixation， and 386 patients in the surgical group underwent open reduction and internal fixation. Visual analog scale （VAS） scores for pain and radiographic indicators including palmar tilt， ulnar deviation， and radial height were compared before treatment， 5-7 days after treatment， and 4-6 weeks after treatment. The wrist joint function scores including Dienst and Gartland-Werley scores at 12 weeks after treatment were recorded. Subgroup analysis was conducted for the excellent rate of Dienst and Gartland-Werley scores， stratified by age （＜50， 50-59， 60-69， ≥70 years old） and AO subtypes （A1， A2， A3）. A multivariate logistic regression model was used to identify independent factors influencing treatment choice. ResultsOn 5-7 days after treatment， the surgical group had lower VAS scores than the TCM group， while 4-6 weeks after treatment， the TCM group showed lower VAS scores than the surgical group （P＜0.01）. In terms of radiographic indicators， except for the palmar tilt before treatment being higher in the surgical group than in the TCM group （P＜0.01）， there were no significant differences in palmar tilt， ulnar deviation， and radial height at other timepoints （P＞0.05）. Twelve weeks after treatment， the surgical group had a higher average Gartland-Werley score and the excellent rate than the TCM group （P＜0.01）. Subgroup analysis showed that in patients with A2 type DRF aged 50-59 and 60-69 years old， the excellent rates of Dienst and Gartland-Werley scores in the TCM group were higher than those in the surgical group （P＜0.05）. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that age， palmar tilt， ulnar deviation， and the degree of swelling on the affected side were independent factors influencing the choice of treatment （P＜0.05）. ConclusionBoth TCM manipulative reduction combined with small splint fixation and surgical treatment for type A DRF can achieve good therapeutic effects. TCM manipulative reduction combined with small splint fixation has certain advantages in medium- and long-term pain relief， especially in elderly patients， where wrist joint function recovery is more stable. Age， palmar tilt， ulnar deviation， and swelling degree are the main factors influencing the treatment choice.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical efficacy and radiographic outcomes of manipulative reduction combined with small splint fixation in the treatment of distal radius fractures. MethodsThe clinical data of 1051 patients with distal radius fractures were retrospectively collected from five hospitals included in the Jiangsu Diagnosis and Treatment Data Platform for Traditional Chinese Medicine（TCM） Dominant Diseases. Propensity score matching at a 1∶4 ratio was applied， resulting in 580 cases selected for final analysis， which comprised 448 patients in the TCM group（manipulative reduction plus small splint fixation） and 132 in the surgical treatment group（open reduction and internal fixation）. Each group was further stratified into type A， B， and C subgroups based on AO fracture classification. Radiographic indicators including palmar tilt， radial inclination， and radial height were compared between groups before treatment and 1 day， 1 week， and 4-6 weeks after treatment， and pain visual analog scale（VAS） scores before treatment and 1 week and 4-6 weeks after treatment were also compared. Wrist joint function was assessed 12 weeks after treatment， using the Dienst wrist function score and the Gartland and Werley（G-W） wrist function score. Additionally， the radiographic indicators at different timepoints and the 12-week wrist function levels were compared between groups across different fracture types. ResultsNo statistically significant difference was observed in radiographic indicators and VAS scores at all timepoints before and after treatment， as well as wrist joint function grades assessed by the Dienst score and the G-W score at 12 weeks after treatment （P＞0.05）. Compared to those before treatment， both groups showed increased palmar tilt， radial inclination， and radial height 1 week and 4-6 weeks after treatment， and decreased VAS scores （P＜0.05）. Compared to those 1 week after treatment， both groups showed a decrease in palmar tilt， an increase in radial inclination and radial height， and a reduction in VAS score 4-6 weeks after treatment（P＜0.05）. In type A and B subgroups， the surgical treatment group had a higher radial inclination than the TCM group 4-6 weeks after treatment， while in the type C subgroup， a higher radial height was shown in the surgical treatment group than in the TCM group 4-6 weeks after treatment（P＜0.05）. In type C subgroup， there was significant difference between groups in the wrist joint function by G-W scores 12 weeks after treatment（P＜0.05）. ConclusionManipulative reduction combined with small splint fixation can maintain fracture alignment and alleviate pain in treating distal radius fractures， which achieves therapeutic outcomes comparable to surgical treatment. It is particularly suitable for type A and B fractures and can be considered an effective treatment option for distal radius fractures.

ObjectiveTo construct an automatic measurement model for palmar tilt and radial inclination suitable for traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） clinical scenarios， and to validate its accuracy and efficiency in TCM manipulative reduction settings. MethodsData on anteroposterior （AP） and lateral X-rays of distal radius fractures were collected from patients admitted to 18 TCM/ integrated TCM and western medicine hospitals in Jiangsu province between September 1st， 2023， and September 1st， 2024， via the Jiangsu Diagnosis and Treatment Big Data Platform for TCM Dominant Diseases. A medical image segmentation framework based on multi-scale feature fusion and edge-awareness was employed， combined with anatomical knowledge specific to TCM orthopedics， to optimize the feature extraction strategy of an artificial intelligence （AI） model. This framework enabled automatic segmentation of fracture regions and measurement of distal radius palmar tilt and radial inclination. The accuracy of the AI model in measuring radial inclination and volar tilt was validated， and the measurement time and average time gain rate of the AI model were compared to those of manual measurement. ResultsA total of 15,444 AP and lateral X-ray images of distal radius fractures were collected， and were divided into a training set （11,144 images， 5066 AP and 6078 lateral）， a validation set （3700 images， 1840 AP and 1860 lateral）， and an independent test set （600 images， 300 AP and 300 lateral） after preprocessing. In the measurement of 300 AP X-rays in the independent test set for radial inclination， when the degree error between AI measurement and manual measurement was ＜3° and ＜5°， AI measurement accuracy was 83% and 93%， respectively. In 300 lateral X-rays in the test set for palmar tilt， when AI measurements had an error of ＜3° and ＜5° compared to manual measurements， corresponding accuracy rate was 78% and 90%， respectively. For 50 X-ray images， AI measurement time was （1.37±0.05） min for radial inclination while manual measurement time was （22.57±2.52） min （P＜0.001）； in terms of palmar tilt， the AI measurement time was （1.33±0.14） min， shorter than （23.70±2.80） min for manual measurement time （P＜0.001）. Average time gain rates for manual and AI measurements were 93.93% and 94.39% respectively. ConclusionAn automatic measurement model for palmar tilt and radial inclination in distal radius fractures has been established， enabling more accurate and efficient assessment as well as providing a tool to support the quantitative evaluation of the efficacy of TCM manipulative reduction and large-sample clinical research.

Objective To explore the effects of different CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressures during surgery on overweight or obese patients with laparoscopic panhysterectomy in Trendelenburg position.Methods A total of 88 overweight or obese patients who underwent laparoscopic panhysterectomy were selected and randomly divided into the low-pressure group and the high-pressure group according to random number table method,with 44 patients in each group.All patients used CO2 as the pneumoperitoneum medium during surgery,with 10 mmHg of CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressure in the low-pressure group and 15 mmHg of CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressure in the high-pressure group.The operation-related indexes,respiratory indicators,nasopharyngeal temperature and adverse reactions of patients were compared between the two groups.Results There was no significant difference in the surgical time,blood loss,intraoperative infusion volume,incidence of organ injury,and laparotomy rate between the two groups(P>0.05).The recovery time of anesthesia of patients in the low-pressure group was shorter than that in the high-pressure group(P<0.05).At 30 minutes after the establishment of pneumoperitoneum,the peak airway pressure(Ppeak)and plateau pressure(Pplat)of patients in the high-pressure group were significantly higher than those in the low-pressure group(P<0.05),while the dynamic lung compliance(Cdyn)of patients in the high-pressure group was significantly lower than that in the low-pressure group(P<0.05).At 60 minutes after the establishment of pneumoperitoneum and the end of pneumoperitoneum,the nasopharyngeal temperature of patients in the high-pressure group were significantly lower than those in the low-pressure group(P<0.05).The incidences of intraoperative hypothermia and shivering in the high-pressure group were significantly higher than those in the low-pressure group(P<0.05).Conclusion Compared with 15 mmHg of CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressure,10 mmHg of CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressure on overweight or obese patients with laparoscopic panhysterectomy in Trendelenburg position does not increase surgical difficulty,and the patients has lower airway pressure,better lung compliance,fewer adverse reactions,and faster recovery,which can also avoid intraoperative hypothermia.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective To explore the effects of different sevoflurane elution methods on awakening quality and cognitive function of elderly obese patients undergoing hip joint replacement.Methods A total of 90 elderly obese patients underwent hip joint replacement under intravenous inhalation combined with general anesthesia and maintained anesthesia with sevoflurane during surgery were selected as the research subjects,and randomly divided into group A and group B,and sevoflurane was eluted by closed elution method and decreasing concentration elution method,respectively.The concentration of sevoflurane exhaled and cognitive function scores at different time points of patients between the two groups were compared,and the awakening quality and the occurrence of adverse reactions during the awakening period of patients between the two groups were compared.Results At the end of the surgery,the concentration of sevoflurane exhaled by patients in group B was significantly lower than that in group A(P<0.05),and the recovery time,awakening time,tracheal extubation time,and anesthesia recovery room stay time of patients in group B were significantly shorter than those in group A(P<0.05).The incidence of agitation during the awakening period of patients in group B was significantly lower than that in group A(P<0.05),and the cognitive function score at the time of 2 hours after awakening of patients in group A was significantly lower than that in group B(P<0.05).Conclusion For elderly obese patients undergoing hip joint replacement with intravenous inhalation combined with general anesthesia,sevoflurane can be eluted by decreasing concentration elution method before the end of surgery,and the patient wakes up smoothly and in a shorter time,with fewer adverse reactions and less impact on postoperative cognitive function.

Roasting is a characteristic traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)processing technology, which has a long history. A large number of ancient books recorded the varieties and processing methods of roasted TCM. However, with the evolution of the times, there are relatively few studies on this processing technology in modern times. By consulting works related to herbs of the past, this study collected a total of 119 kinds of TCM roasting methods recorded in 123 ancient books and systematically summarized the historical evolution and development of TCM roasting methods. At the same time, the inclusion of roasted varieties in Chinese Pharmacopoeia of different editions, National Traditional Chinese Medicine Processing Specification(1988 edition), and provincial TCM processing specifications was sorted out. This paper reviews the research progress of the process, quality control, chemical composition, pharmacological action, and clinical application of roasted TCM and analyzes the evolution of the roasting technology, in order to provide a literature basis for optimizing roasting process parameters, establishing the quality standard of roasted decoction pieces, explaining the processing theory of roasting, and promoting rational clinical application.
