Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） constitution theory， with its focus on individualized diagnosis and treatment， provides the theoretical foundation and practical pathways for the prevention and control of comorbidities in the elderly， mental health interventions， and rehabilitation for functional impairment， based on the principle of "treating different diseases with the same approach and preventing multiple diseases simultaneously". Addressing the current issues of insufficient accuracy in identifying elderly constitutions and a lack of targeted prevention and treatment strategies， this paper proposes the construction of a precision identification system characterized by data-driven， dynamic tracking， and human-machine collaboration. It also establishes a dynamic regulatory framework based on classification-based foundation， grad-based quantification， and tiered collaboration. These approaches aim to expand the application of TCM constitution theory in promoting elderly health promotion.

Objective To analyze the status quo and related factors of treatment compliance in elderly patients with advanced gastric cancer complicated with cancer pain. Methods Three hundred and ten elderly patients with advanced gastric cancer from January 2021 to June 2024 were selected, and their general data were collected. Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), Beliefs about Medicines Questionnaire (BMQ), Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) and 8-item Morisky Medication Adherence Scale (MMAS-8) were adopted to investigate the psychological status, necessity of medication belief, degree of cancer pain and treatment compliance. Univariate analysis, correlation analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis were used to describe and analyze the treatment compliance status and related factors in elderly advanced gastric cancer with cancer pain. Results A total of 310 patients were divided into group A (good compliance, 93 cases), group B (moderate compliance ,102 cases) and group C (poor compliance , 115 cases) by means of compliance degree. There were significant differences in education level , pain duration and intensity and analgesic category (P<0.05). Treatment compliance was associated with education level, analgesic category, psychological status, medication belief and pain degree (P<0.05). The necessity of medication belief and pain duration and degree were influencing factors of treatment compliance. Conclusion The treatment compliance in advanced gastric cancer with cancer pain is poor, and can be affected by the necessity of medication belief and duration and degree of pain.

Objective:To investigate the ultra-long-term antihypertensive efficacy, safety, major adverse events, and survival benefits of renal denervation (RDN) in patients with resistant hypertension (rHTN) and mild chronic kidney disease (CKD).Methods:This real-world, single-center retrospective study enrolled patients with rHTN and mild CKD who underwent RDN at Tianjin First Central Hospital between October 2011 and June 2016. Office blood pressure, home self-measured blood pressure, 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure, serum creatinine, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio were collected at baseline and at 1, 5, and 13 years post-RDN. The total daily defined dose of antihypertensive medications at 13 years post-RDN was recorded, along with endpoint events during follow-up, including cardiovascular death, all-cause death, hospitalization for heart failure, myocardial infarction, and stroke. Patients were stratified according to CKD stage (G1-G2 vs. G3a) and baseline systolic blood pressure (mild-to-moderate vs. severe hypertension), and follow-up data were compared across subgroups.Results:A total of 40 patients were included, aged (51±15) years, including 26 (65%) males. At the 13-year follow-up, office systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) decreased by (-32±20) mmHg and (-15±14) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), respectively; reductions in home self-measured blood pressure (SBP: (-25±14) mmHg, DBP: (-10±11) mmHg) and 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure (SBP: (-16±9 mmHg, DBP: (-10±6) mmHg) were also observed, alongside a reduction in the total daily defined dose of antihypertensive medications by (1.1±0.9) compared to baseline. Renal function assessments showed no significant differences at 13 years versus baseline in serum creatinine ((105±51) μmol/L vs. (96±22) μmol/L), estimated glomerular filtration rate ((72±22) ml·min -1·1.73 m -2 vs. (78±17) ml·min -1·1.73 m -2), or urine albumin-to-creatinine ratio ((101±86) mg/g vs. (127±82) mg/g) (all P>0.05). All-cause and cardiovascular mortality rates during follow-up were 13% (5/40) and 8% (3/40), respectively. Subgroup analysis results showed that, although CKD G1-G2 patients had smaller reductions in office SBP ((-31±20) mmHg vs. (-34±19) mmHg) and DBP ((-13±10) mmHg vs. (-25±18) mmHg) compared to G3a patients at 13 years, intergroup differences were not significant (all P>0.05). In contrast, severe hypertension subgroup exhibited greater reductions in office SBP ((-55±13) mmHg vs. (-20±10) mmHg) and DBP ((-24±17) mmHg vs. (-13±10) mmHg) versus mild-to-moderate hypertension subgroup (all P<0.05). Conclusion:RDN demonstrates sustained antihypertensive efficacy with favorable renal safety in rHTN patients with mild CKD. Patients with higher baseline systolic blood pressure may exhibit better responsiveness to RDN.

Macrophages are widely distributed in peripheral blood, lungs, liver, brain, kidneys, skin, testes, vascular endothelial cells, and other parts of the body. As sentinel cells of innate immunity, they play an important role in the occurrence and development of sepsis. Recent research in immune metabolism has revealed the complicated relationship between specific metabolic pathways of macrophages and their phenotype and function in sepsis. During the pro-inflammatory phase of sepsis, macrophages are characterized by glycolysis, while in the immunosuppressive phase, they rely more on mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). Hence, this review describes how macrophages metabolism related signaling pathways, molecules, enzymes and metabolic intermediates determine their phenotype and function to find critical targets which regulate the body immune status in sepsis.

ObjectiveTo explore the correlation between blood stasis constitution （BSC） and diseases based on constitution literature involving “constitution-diseases correlation”. MethodsA comprehensive search was conducted on six Chinese and English electronic databases including CNKI， Wanfang， VIP， SinoMed， PubMed and Embase to find all clinical researches on the correlation between constitution and diseases using the Classification and Identification of Chinese Medicine Constitution standard from April 1st， 2009 to December 31st， 2022， and the participants of the research were BSC related. By analyzing the characteristics of the literature， such as authors， publication institutes， participants， and results， the disease with the highest proportion of BSC distribution or BSC as their risk factors or protective factors were summarized to explore the correlation between BSC and diseases. ResultsTotally 135 clinical studies on diseases highly related to BSC were included， with a total sample size of 71 172 cases.There were 27 keywords in the articles appeared more than 3 times， including the elderly， lumbar disc herniation， coronary heart disease， cardiovascular disease， and endometriosis. In the author's clustering， included studis were mainly from Shenzhen Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine， Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine， and Wenzhou Central Hospital. In terms of blood stasis related diseases， 81 studies showed that BSC was the most common type of constitution in the study population， involving 48 disease or morbid states. The diseases and median proportions of BSC with reported literature ≥3 included coronary heart disease （28.8%）， endometriosis （31.3%）， neurocognitive impairment （26.4%）， lumbar disc herniation （26.0%）， ischemic stroke （25.0%）， adenomyosis （34.7%）， and endometrial polyps （25.0%）. Fifty-eight studies found that BSC was a risk factor for disease occurrence，and these diseases reported more than 3 times included hypertension （median OR = 2.956）， type 2 diabetes （median OR = 3.436），osteoporosis （median OR = 5.171）， sudden deafness （median OR = 3.827） and endometriosis （median OR = 5.412）. One study indicated BSC as the protective factor of lateral growth tumor of large intestine （median OR = 0.161）. ConclusionBSC is closely related to circulatory system diseases， urogenital system diseases， and musculoskeletal system diseases.

Objective:To explore the association between polymorphisms of transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β)signaling pathway and non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate(NSCL/P)among Asian populations,while considering gene-gene interaction and gene-environment interaction.Methods:A total of 1 038 Asian NSCL/P case-parent trios were ascertained from an international consortium,which conducted a genome-wide association study using a case-parent trio design to investigate the genes affec-ting risk to NSCL/P.After stringent quality control measures,343 single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)spanning across 10 pivotal genes in the TGF-β signaling pathway were selected from the original genome-wide association study(GWAS)dataset for further analysis.The transmission disequilibrium test(TDT)was used to test for SNP effects.The conditional Logistic regression models were used to test for gene-gene interaction and gene-environment interaction.Environmental factors collected for the study in-cluded smoking during pregnancy,passive smoking during pregnancy,alcohol intake during pregnancy,and vitamin use during pregnancy.Due to the low rates of exposure to smoking during pregnancy and al-cohol consumption during pregnancy(＜3％),only the interaction between maternal smoking during pregnancy and multivitamin supplementation during pregnancy was analyzed.The threshold for statistical significance was rigorously set at P=1.46 × 10-4,applying Bonferroni correction to account for multiple testing.Results:A total of 23 SNPs in 4 genes yielded nominal association with NSCL/P(P＜0.05),but none of these associations was statistically significant after Bonferroni's multiple test correction.How-ever,there were 6 pairs of SNPs rs4939874(SMAD2)and rs1864615(TGFBR2),rs2796813(TGFB2)and rs2132298(TGFBR2),rs4147358(SMAD3)and rs1346907(TGFBR2),rs4939874(SMAD2)and rs1019855(TGFBR2),rs4939874(SMAD2)and rs12490466(TGFBR2),rs2009112(TGFB2)and rs4075748(TGFBR2)showed statistically significant SNP-SNP interaction(P＜1.46 × 10-4).In contrast,the analysis of gene-environment interactions did not yield any significant results after being cor-rected by multiple testing.Conclusion:The comprehensive evaluation of SNP associations and interac-tions within the TGF-β signaling pathway did not yield any direct associations with NSCL/P risk in Asian populations.However,the significant gene-gene interactions identified suggest that the genetic architec-ture influencing NSCL/P risk may involve interactions between genes within the TGF-β signaling path-way.These findings underscore the necessity for further investigations to unravel these results and further explore the underlying biological mechanisms.
