Follicular lymphoma(FL)is a type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma,and its treatment options face many challenges.This paper discusses the pathogenesis and treatment of FL based on the clear-turbid theory in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)."The clear and the turbid being related,and the rise and fall of qi being disorderly"is the basic pathogenesis of FL.As the disease progres-ses,"evil qi being blocked inside,and turbid evil harming the clear"aggravates,and finally"evil qi is strong and the disease progres-ses,and evil poison is generated inside".Based on this theory,the method of raising the clear and lowering the turbid and the method of dispersing the clear and removing the turbid are proposed to treat FL.The emphasis of raising the clear and lowering the turbid is to take raising and lowering as the key,movement and stillness as the pivot,and to treat the middle jiao;the emphasis of dispersing the clear and removing the turbid is to clear the triple jiao,warm the yang and invigorate the qi,and harmonize the spleen and kidney.Ca-ses are attached to illustrate,providing new ideas for the TCM treatment of FL.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and effectiveness of physician modified stent grafts technique and in situ fenestration technique for reconstructing the left subclavian artery in endovascular repair of thoracic aortic lesions with insufficient proximal landing area.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 75 patients with aortic arch lesions treated with physician modified stent grafts and in situ fenestration techniques at the Interventional Diagnosis and Treatment Department of Beijing Anzhen Hospital affiliated with Capital Medical University from November 2021 to March 2024. Among them, 52 patients received within physician modified stent grafts (PMSGs group) and 23 patients received in situ fenestration (ISF group). Based on two fenestration techniques, to analyze the technical success rate of endovascular repair in reconstructing the left subclavian artery in the perioperative and early following up adverse events both groups.Results:The success rate of PMSGs group technique was 92.31% (48/52), while the success rate of ISF technique was 91.30%(21/23). In the PMSGs group, there was 1 case of TypeⅠa endoleak and 3 cases of TypeⅠc endoleak immediately during endovascular repair; There was 1 case of TypeⅠa endoleak and 1 case of vascular injury in the ISF group immediately during endovascular repair. One case of perioperative cerebral infarction and one case of transient blindness occurred in the PMSGs group; One case of transient blindness and 1 case of brachial artery thrombosis occurred in the perioperative period in the ISF group. During the follow-up period, there was 1 case of distal dissection aneurysm formation in the PMSGs group, and 3 cases of minor typeⅠc endoleak were found after 3 months; One case of subclavian artery stent occlusion and 2 cases of minor typeⅠc endoleak occurred in the ISF group 6 months later. There were no cases of aortic-related deaths during the follow-up period in both groups. There was no statistically significant difference in the technical success rate, incidence of adverse events during the perioperative period and follow-up period, and re-intervention rate between the two groups. The average fluoroscopy time consumed in the ISF group was significantly higher than that in the PMSGs group (34.57 min vs. 21.42 min, P<0.001), but the average hospitalization time in the PMSGs group was significantly higher than that in the ISF group (9.33 days vs. 4.71 days, P<0.001). Conclusion:PMSGs and ISF techniques for reconstructing the left subclavian artery in the treatment of thoracic aortic arch lesions showed good safety and effectiveness. The appropriate fenestration technique selected based on aorta arch anatomical and lesion conditions could achieve satisfactory efficacy in short-term, but long-term effects need to be further observed.

OBJECTIVE To study the quality grade stand ard of the premature Forsythia suspensa . METHODS A total of 138 batches of premature F. suspensa were collected from the main producing areas of F. suspensa in China. According to 2020 edition of Chinese Pharmacopoeia ,the contents of impurities ,moisture,ethanol-soluble extract ,volatile oil ,forsythin and forsythoside A in the premature F. suspense were determined ,and the qualified samples were screened. AHP-PCA mixed weighting method was used to give comprehensive weight to the indicators (except for the limit of impurity ). The comprehensive score of the samples was calculated. The suggestions on the quality grade division of premature F. suspensa were put forward according to cluster analysis of K-mean value. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS The contents of impurities ,moisture,ethanol-soluble extract ,volatile oil ,forsythin and forsythoside A in the premature F. suspense were 0-7.80%,1.60%-8.18%,13.13%-61.60%,0.21%-3.47%,0.02%-2.15% and 0.79%-14.04%,respectively;average contents of them were 1.24%,4.97%,34.88%,2.01%,0.42%,6.86%,respectively. Totally 47 batches of 138 batches were qualified in all indexes. It is suggested that the quality grade of the premature F. suspense can be divided into three grades :in first grade of F. suspense ,the contents of volatile oil ,forsythin,forsythoside A , ethanol-soluble extract and moisture were ≥2.40%,≥0.59%,≥8.34%,≥38.66% and ≤4.99%,respectively;in second grade of F. suspense ,the contents of above indicators were ≥2.26%,≥0.41%,≥7.47%,≥32.58% and ≤5.33%,respectively;in third grade of F. suspense ,the contents of above indicators were ≥2.15%,≥0.32%,≥4.60%,≥31.52% and≤7.23%,respectively.

The thyroid function test is universally used for the evaluation of thyroid function. However, there are factors other than endocrine diseases, such as special physiological conditions, interference in laboratory measurement, or disorders in other systems that should be taken into consideration. When encountering thyroid function test results that are not in line with clinical manifestation, a comprehensive evaluation is essential for a correct and timely diagnosis. We presented a case of a significant rise in serum total triiodothyronine(TT 3) secondary to multiple myeloma. Through case studies and literature review, we intended to provide clinicians with experience for better interpretation of abnormal thyroid function test results.

Objective To investigate the awareness of osteoporosis and its influential factors in middle-aged and older people. Methods By using self-designed questionnaire, 354 middle-aged and old people were investigated as to their awarness of osteoporosis in Chajiao street community in Guangzhou. Among them, 58 people were measured the bone density in the calcaneal bone by Ultrasound. Results The average score of the questionnaire was 9.46 ± 5.13, and the accuracy was 39.4%. In the diagnosis and treatment, the accuracy was just 17.8%. The diet (the accuracy in 54%) and sport (the accuracy in 50.3%) were good. The statistical analyses showed the linear relationship between the T value of bone density and the age (P = 0.021), between the T value and the score (P = 0.047). Wilcoxon rank sum test found that the T value between female and male was significantly different (Z = -3.749, P < 0.000). With multiple linear regression analysis, the T value had a linear correlation with the score (F = 4.224, P = 0.045) positively. Conclusions Currently, the awareness of osteoporosis in the middle-aged and old people was inadequate. To better prevent osteoporosis, the propogation of knowledge and guidance provided by clinicians in osteoporosis should be improved necessarily and emergently.

Objective To investigate the effect of self-efficacy theory in rehabilitation on stroke patients with hemiplegia complicated psychological disorder. Methods 26 cases were divided into the combined therapy group (13 cases, accepted physical therapy with self-efficacy) and the routine physical therapy group (13 cases). They were assessed with General self-efficacy scale (GSES), Fugl-Meyer Assessment before and 1, 3 months after treatment, as well as symptom checklist (SCL-90) before and 1 month after treatment. Results The scores of GSES raise 63% in the combined therapy group 1 month after treatment, obviously different from that of routine physical therapy (P<0.01).The score of Fugl-Meyer Assessment of the combined therapy group were increased from (53.08±13.04) to (90.07±6.54 ) and from (56.46±12.95) to (81.77±8.51)in the routine physical therapy group (F= 85.53,P<0.05). All the scores of depression, anxiety, compulsion, hostility in SCL-90 were markedly lower in the combined therapy group than in the routine physical therapy group(P<0.01). Conclusion Utilization of self-efficacy theory in rehabilitation can improve the emotion and effect of rehabilitation.
