Based on the trinity life view of ''physique, Qi, and spirit'', Chaihu Jia Longgu Mulitang treats the patient's physical symptoms, disorders of Qi movement, and disorders of consciousness, covering the overall treatment and comprehensive nursing of physique, Qi, and spirit. It is widely applied and recognized for its efficacy in modern clinical practice. This paper explored the treatment effect of Chaihu Jia Longgu Mulitang from the trinity life view of ''physique, Qi, and spirit''. This formula mainly targeted patients with Qi deficiency caused by cold, leading to a syndrome of Qi stagnation and water retention in the Triple Energizer Meridian of Hand Lesser Yang (TE), as well as fire-heat syndrome in the Large Intestine Meridian of Hand Yang Brightness (LI) and Stomach Meridian of Foot Yang Brightness (ST), accompanied by disorder of nutrient-blood and subsequent spirit and soul unrest. Accurately judging the imbalance of the patient's physique, Qi, and spirit and using an appropriate combination of medicinals can achieve balance among the three to achieve the best effect. The treatment strategy of Chaihu Jia Longgu Mulitang is as follows: For disorders of Qi movement, such as Qi deficiency, Qi stagnation, and gastrointestinal fire-heat, Ginseng Radix et Rhizoma and Bupleuri Radix-Scutellariae Radix, and Rhei Radix et Rhizoma are used in combination. For physical symptoms such as water retention and disorder of nutrient-blood, Poria-Pinelliae Rhizoma-Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens, as well as Cinnamomi Ramulus-Jujubae Fructus are used in combination. Finally, Os Draconis-Ostreae Concha-Plumbum Rubrum is used to calm the spirit and soothe the soul. According to existing research, Chaihu Jia Longgu Mulitang has shown good efficacy in treating a variety of complex clinical diseases. This article provides a comprehensive interpretation of Chaihu Jia Longgu Mulitang from the perspective of the trinity life view of ''physique, Qi, and spirit'', offering new insights for clinical syndrome differentiation, treatment, and prescription.

Objective To develop an artificial intelligence vaginal secretion analysis system based on deep learning and to evaluate the accuracy of automated microscopy in the clinical diagnosis of aerobic vaginitis(AV).Methods In this study,the vaginal secretion samples of 3 769 patients receiving treatment at the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology,West China Second Hospital,Sichuan University between January 2020 and December 2021 were selected.Using the results of manual microscopy as the control,we developed the linear kernel SVM algorithm,an artificial intelligence(AI)automated analysis software,with Python Scikit-learn script.The AI automated analysis software could identify leucocytes with toxic appearance and parabasal epitheliocytes(PBC).The bacterial grading parameters were reset using standard strains of lactobacillus and AV common isolates.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was used to determine the cut-off value of AV evaluation results for different scoring items were obtained by using the results of manual microscopy as the control.Then,the parameters of automatic AV identification were determined and the automatic AV analysis scoring method was initially established.Results A total of 3 769 vaginal secretion samples were collected.The AI automated analysis system incorporated five parameters and each parameter incorporated three severity scoring levels.We selected 1.5 μm as the cut-off value for the diameter between Lactobacillus and common AV bacterial isolates.The automated identification parameter of Lactobacillus was the ratio of bacteria≥1.5 μm to those<1.5 μm.The cut-off scores were 2.5 and 0.5,In the parameter of white blood cells(WBC),the cut-off value of the absolute number of WBC was 103 μL-1 and the cut-off value of WBC-to-epithelial cell ratio was 10.The automated identification parameter of toxic WBC was the ratio of toxic WBC toWBC and the cut-off values were 1%and 15%.The parameter of background flora was bacteria<1.5 μm and the cut-off values were 5×103 μL-1 and 3×104 μL-1.The parameter of the parabasal epitheliocytes was the ratio of PBC to epithelial cells and the cut-off values were 1%and 10%.The agreement rate between the results of automated microscopy and those of manual microscopy was 92.5%.Out of 200 samples,automated microscopy and manual microscopy produced consistent scores for 185 samples,while the results for 15 samples were inconsistent.Conclusion We developed an AI recognition software for AV and established an automated vaginal secretion microscopy scoring system for AV.There was good overall concordance between automated microscopy and manual microscopy.The AI identification software for AV can complete clinical lab examination with rather high objectivity,sensitivity,and efficiency,markedly reducing the workload of manual microscopy.

"The Expert Group on Tumor Ablation Therapy of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, The Tumor Ablation Committee of Chinese College of Interventionalists, The Society of Tumor Ablation Therapy of Chinese Anti-Cancer Association and The Ablation Expert Committee of the Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology" have organized multidisciplinary experts to formulate the consensus for thermal ablation of pulmonary subsolid nodules or ground-glass nodule (GGN). The expert consensus reviews current literatures and provides clinical practices for thermal ablation of GGN. The main contents include: (1) clinical evaluation of GGN, (2) procedures, indications, contraindications, outcomes evaluation and related complications of thermal ablation for GGN and (3) future development directions.

Objective To investigate the effect of soluble endothclial protein C receptor(sEPCR) on natural killer(NK) cells and Th17 cells of epithelial ovarian cancer(EOC) patients and further to study the mechanism of the occurrence and development of epithelial ovarian cancer.Methods 35 cases with epithelial ovarian cancer were selected as the experimental group,and 35 healthy women were chosen as the control group.Peripheral venous blood sample(8 ml)was extracted from each subject.Plasma,serum and peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs) were obtained from the blood sample.ELISA was used to detect the level of plasma sEPCR and serum IL-17 and IL-21.Flow cytometry was used to detect proportions of NK cells and Th17 cells in PBMCs.Results Compared to the control group,the level of plasma sEPCR in the experimental group increased significantly(P < 0.05).The level of serum IL-17,IL-21 and proportion of NK and Th17 cells in PBMCs significantly decreased(P < 0.05).Correlation analysis showed that sEPCR was negatively correlated with IL-17,IL-21,Th17 cells and NK cells,and the correlation coefficient r was-0.71,-0.62,-0.68 and-0.79,respectively.Conclusion sEPCR in epithelial ovarian cancer patients possibly promotes the proliferation of tumor cells through inhibition of NK and Th17 cells.

Objective To discuss the technique of Neuroform stent-assisted coil embolization for the treatment of intracranial wide-necked aneurysms and to evaluate its clinical efficacy and complications.Methods Neuroform stent-assisted technique was used for coil embolization treatment in 31 patients with intracranial wide-necked aneurysms, all aneurysms were ruptured and the patients suffered from subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Of the total 43 aneurysms, 39 were wide-necked and 4 were narrow-necked. Results Thirty-five stents were inserted in 31 patients. The stents were implanted in both internal carotid arteries in 3 patients and in both middle cerebral arteries in one patient, Intra-arterial embolization with coils was successfully performed in 41 of 43 aneurysms. Intraoperative hemorrhage occurred in 2 patients, which probably resulted from the rupture of middle cerebral artery branch due to microwire damage. The cerebral isehemic symptom happened in 1 patient with posterior communicating artery aneurysm due to the shifting of the coil from the original site to M2 segment of middle cerebral artery. During a follow-up period of 24.7 months in average, neither death nor recurrent hemorrhage occurred in 29 cases. Twenty-eight patients were in good living condition and the remaining one patient showed obvious disturbance of neural function.Conclusion For the treatment of intracranial wide-necked aneurysms, intra-arterial coil embolization with Neuroform stent-assisted technique is a safe and effective clinical therapy. It can effectively broaden the extent of indications in treating intracranial aneurysms by using interventional technique.
