Osteoarthritis (OA) and stroke are common clinical diseases that reduce patients' quality of life and place a burden on families and society. Ruyi Zhenbaowan, a classic prescription in Tibetan medicine, have the functions of clearing heat, awakening the brain and opening orifices, relaxing tendons and promoting meridian circulation, and eliminating yellow water. Clinically, they are used to treat osteoarthritis, post-stroke sequelae, neuropathic pain, and other related conditions. Modern pharmacological studies have demonstrated their anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and nerve-repairing effects. However, current research remains insufficient regarding the appropriate indications, timing, and efficacy of this medicine in treating relevant diseases. To enhance clinicians' understanding of this medicine and promote its standardized and rational clinical use, a panel of national experts, including clinical specialists, Tibetan medicine practitioners, pharmacologists, and methodologists, formulated this consensus based on clinical experience and evidence-based practice. The Cochrane systematic review framework, the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) system, and the nominal group method were employed to generate seven graded recommendations and 19 consensus-based suggestions. These recommendations clearly define the key points in the clinical application of Ruyi Zhenbaowan, including therapeutic indications, dosage and administration, treatment duration, and medication safety. The consensus specifically addresses the clinical efficacy, appropriate timing of administration, dosage strategies, treatment cycles, and combination medication strategies for treating osteoarthritis and stroke and provides an overview of safety considerations. The aim is to provide standardized guidance for hospitals and healthcare institutions nationwide to ensure the rational application of Ruyi Zhenbaowan in the treatment of osteoarthritis and stroke, reduce medication-related risks, and further leverage its clinical advantages. This consensus has been approved and issued by the China Association of Chinese Medicine, with the standard number GS/CACM 369-2024.

Objective:To investigate the safety and efficacy of four-hook needle combined with holographic image in robot-assisted partial nephrectomy for completely intrarenal tumors.Methods:The clinical data of 8 patients with completely intrarenal tumors treated by robot-assisted partial nephrectomy with four-hook needle combined with holographic image admitted to General Hospital of Central Theater Command from October 2023 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 6 males and 2 females, with average age of (44.5±12.0) years old. Tumors of 6 cases were in the left side and 2 cases in the right side. The maximum diameter of the tumor was (23.2±8.1) mm. The R. E.N.A.L. score was (9.0±1.4). The preoperative serum creatinine (Scr) was (73.1±14.7) μmol/L. CT-guided four-hook needle was used to locate the edge of completely intrarenal tumor before surgery. During the operation, the tumor was precisely resected under the guidance of hologram and four-hook needle. Perioperative data of patients were collected and analyzed.Results:All the tumor were successfully resected under the guidance of four-hook needle and hologram without conversion to radical nephrectomy or open surgery. The mean operative time was (117.0±14.5) min, the mean hot ischemia time was (20.2±5.1) min, the mean intraoperative blood loss was (75.0±17.3) ml, and the average hospitalization time was (9.5±1.3) days.The one week postoperative Scr was (73.2±14.8) μmol/L, which had no significant difference with that of before operation ( P=0.952). None of them received blood transfusion. The pathology results of 8 patients were clear cell renal cell carcinoma, and the surgical margins were negative. Conclusions:For completely intrarenal tumors, the four-hook needle combined with the hologram can guide the surgeon to quickly locate the tumor, accurately resect the tumor, reduce perioperative complications, and is safe and effective.

Background/Aims:
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common malignant tumor, and circular RNAs (circRNAs) are abnormally expressed in CRC. However, the function and underlying mechanism of circRNA pinin (circ-PNN; hsa_circ_0101802) in CRC remain unclear.
Methods:
Exosomes were isolated from the plasma of CRC patients and identified by transmission electron microscopy and Western blotting. The RNA expression levels of circ-PNN, miR-1225-5p, and fibroblast growth factor 13 (FGF13) were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Cell proliferation was detected by Cell Counting K-8, colony formation, and 5-ethynyl-2’-deoxyuridine assays. Cell apoptosis was assessed by flow cytometry. The expression of apoptosis and metastasis-related proteins was evaluated by Western blotting. The associations among circ-PNN, miR-1225-5p, and FGF13 were confirmed by dual-luciferase report assay and RNA immunoprecipitation assay. A xenograft model was used to verify the function of circ-PNN in tumor formation in vivo.
Results:
circ-PNN expression was upregulated in plasmic exosomes derived from CRC patients. The expression of circ-PNN and FGF13 was upregulated, while miR-1225-5p expression was downregulated in CRC cells incubated with plasmic exosomes derived from CRC patients.Tumor-derived exosomes promoted the proliferation, migration, and invasion but inhibited apoptosis of CRC cells. Moreover, the addition of tumor-derived exosomes partly reversed the inhibitory effect of circ-PNN knockdown on CRC tumor progression in vitro and in vivo. Thus, circ-PNN acts as a sponge for miR-1225-5p to regulate FGF13 expression.
Conclusions
Tumor-derived exosomal circ-PNN promoted CRC progression through the regulation of the miR-1225-5p/FGF13 pathway, providing a potential therapeutic target for CRC.
