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.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the improvement effects of the Shenling kongliu formula （SLKLF） on mice with colorectal adenoma （CRA）， as well as its impact on the Toll-like receptor 4 （TLR4）/myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88 （MyD88）/nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB） pathway and on the macrophage polarization.METHODS Thirty male Apc Min/+ mice were randomly divided into a model group， an aspirin group [positive control， 20.59 mg/（kg·d）]， and low-， medium- and high-dose SLKLF groups [2.06， 4.11 and 8.22 g/（kg·d）]， with six mice in each group. Additionally， 6 wild-type male C57BL/6J mice were used as the wild-type control group. Mice in each group were gavaged twice daily with the corresponding drug solution or normal saline for 12 consecutive weeks. After the final administration， the levels of interleukin-10 （IL-10） and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） in the serum of mice in each group were measured， the total number of adenomas and the average longest diameter in the entire colon and rectum were counted， histopathological changes in colorectal tissues were observed， and the protein expressions of cluster of differentiation 86 （CD86）， CD206， inducible nitric oxide synthase （iNOS）， arginase-1 （ARG-1）， TLR4， MyD88， and NF-κB p65 in the colorectal tissue were detected.RESULTS Compared with the model group， mice in all SLKLF dose groups showed varying degrees of improvement in pathological changes such as colorectal adenomatous lesions and inflammatory cell infiltration. Their serum levels of IL-10 and TNF-α， total number of adenomas and their average longest diameter （except in the low-dose group）， CD86-positive and CD206-positive （except in the low-dose group） expressions， as well as the protein expressions of iNOS， TLR4， MyD88， NF-κB p65 were all significantly reduced， decreased， shortened， or downregulated， while the protein expression of ARG-1 （except in the low-dose group） was significantly upregulated （ P ＜0.05）. The Jonckheere-Terpstra tests showed that， as the SLKLF dose increased， the levels of IL-10 and TNF-α， the total number of adenomas， the average longest diameter， CD86-positive and CD206-positive expressions， and the protein expression of MyD88 in mice all showed a decreasing trend， while the protein expression of ARG-1 showed an increasing trend （ P ＜0.05）.CONCLUSIONS SLKLF can reduce the CRA burden in Apc Min/+ mice and improve histopathological changes in the adenomas. Its therapeutic effects are accompanied by changes in the expression of proteins associated with the TLR4/MyD88/NF-κB pathway， inflammatory factors， and markers related to macrophage polarization.

Flexible ureteral lithotripsy (FURL) under general anesthesia (GA) is the dominant method in the treatment of renal and upper ureteral calculi，but some patients cannot tolerate GA.In recent years，there has been a growing interest in the use of local anesthesia (LA) as a safe and effective alternative.And it is also an option for patients who have calculi ≤20 mm with high fragility，lower CT value and better compatibility.Before surgery，it is important to conduct relevant examinations，evaluate the status of patients，prevent infections，and indwell ureteral stents.During surgery，lithotomy position，scissors position，prone leg position and other positions should be selected according to the specific conditions of patients.LA drugs should be used to control physiological pain and relieve psychological anxiety.Patients' breathing state should be carefully monitored，and appropriate ureteroscope and lens sheath should be selected for the success and safety of the operation.In this paper，the perioperative management of FURL under LA is briefly summarized，so as to provide reference for clinical practice.

OBJECTIVE To understand the current status of prevention and control of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)diagnosis and treatment technique-related infections in various grades of hospitals in Jiangsu Province so as to provide bases for management departments to put forward the norms.METHODS The questionnaire was de-signed by the methods such as Delphic correspondence,the current status of prevalence,prevention and control of TCM diagnosis and treatment technique-related infections among the health care workers in the hospitals of Jiang-su Province was investigated by using convenience sampling method.RESULTS A total of 508 questionnaires were collected from 13 cities of Jiangsu Province.The results showed that the TCM treatment room(63.64％)was the most common operation site for minimally invasive TCM diagnosis and treatment techniques,the bedside(62.50％)of the patients was the major operation site for Chinese medicine enema,and the central sterile supply department(55.31％)was the preferred choice of cleaning and disinfection site for daily recycled TCM apparatu-ses.'One person used for once,airing and preparing for later use after cleaning and disinfection for once'was the major approach taken for the cleaning and disinfection of Gua Sha boards(82.45％)and TCM pots(87.50％).67.87％of the health care workers said that they wound cleaned and disinfected the medical apparatuses of dress-ing,ironing and fumigation every time after the use.The natural ventilation and ultraviolet light(50.39％)was the major method that was taken for the ventilation and disinfection of the treatment rooms for TCM operations.Quick-drying hand disinfectant and non-touch hand-washing equipment(39.37％)were the most commonly e-quipped hand hygiene facilities.CONCLUSIONS The prevention and control of TCM diagnosis and treatment tech-nique-related infections and the health care workers' capabilities for prevention and control of the infection have made remarkable progress in the various grades of hospitals in Jiangsu Province.However,there is still room for further improvement,and the standardized management and construction should be completed so as to safeguard the TCM diagnosis and treatment techniques.

In March 2020, the outflow of age limited videos from ICU in Spain inspired us to rethink whether there is age discrimination in the allocation of scarce medical resources. This paper frist reflected on the problem of age discrimination caused by this phenomenon from four moral intuitions: the sacred view of life, the quality of life and values, public health ethics and Chinese culture, and then examined whether it is illegal from the legal level, finally pointed out the negative impact on the society, and put forward that taking age as the standard for the allocation of scarce medical resources is not suitable for China’s national conditions.

Objective To provide alternative delivery methods of novel oral antitumor drugs for patients with dysphagia.Methods The retrieval range was determined according to the"Guidelines for Clinical Application of Novel Antitumor Drugs(2022 edition)".By consulting the instructions and searching databases such as PubMed,Micromedex,UpToDate,etc.,the preparation,stability,storage,and related clinical information of temporary liquid drug formulations were obtained.Results Seventy novel oral anticancer drugs were included in the literature search.Thirty-three drugs had relevant literature or data supporting alternative administration methods,only eight had information on alternative administration in the instructions,and the level of evidence for other drugs varied.Conclusion The evidence levels were low for most temporary liquid formulations,and medical teams should fully consider the advantages and disadvantages of using these products outside the instructions and use them with caution.

Objective·To construct and verify the mouse model that can mimic the vitamin A deficiency(VAD)-like craniofacial skeletal deformity and do not cause embryonic death.Methods·Based on the Cre-LoxP system,the OsxCre;Rosa26dn/dn mice expressing osteoblast-specific dominant-negative retinoid acid receptor α(dnRARα)mutation were obtained by hybridization through OsxCre and Rosa26dnRARa/ddnRARa mice,to achieve the conditional inhibition of retinoic acid signaling to simulate VAD disease.Femur bone mesenchymal stem cells(BMSCs)and parietal bone cells of OsxCre;Rosa26dn/dn mice and their control littermates were isolated and underwent osteogenic induction,to assess the expression of retinoid acid receptor α(RARα)protein through Western blotting.Osteoblasts induced from parietal bone cells of OsxCre;Rosa26dn/dn mice and their control littermates were isolated and the effect of retinoic acid signaling inhibition was verified through dual luciferase gene reporter assay.Meanwhile,Ad-eGFP or Ad-Cre adenovirus-infected femur BMSCs and parietal bone cells of Rosa26dn/dnmice underwent osteogenic induction to assess the expression of dominant-negative mutant protein and the inhibition of the retinoic acid signaling pathway in vitro by Western blotting and dual luciferase gene reporter assay.Moreover,the skulls of 6-week-old OsxCre;Rosa26dn/dn mice were collected,and Micro-CT scanning and three-dimensional(3D)reconstruction were performed to verify the craniofacial skeletal deformities of the mouse model.Results·Western blotting results demonstrated that the level of RARα protein increased in the femur and parietal osteoblasts of OsxCre;Rosa26dn/dn mice compared to that of their control littermates,and also increased in the Ad-Cre-infected femur and parietal osteoblasts of Rosa26dn/dn mice compared to that in the Ad-eGFP-infected group(P＜0.05).Dualluciferase gene reporter assay results indicated that the activity of retinoid acid response element(RARE)was inhibited in the osteoblasts of OsxCre;Rosa26dn/dn mice compared to their control littermates,and was also inhibited in the Ad-Cre-infected group compared to the Ad-eGFP-infected group(P＜0.05).Micro-CT and 3D reconstruction suggested that the skull of 6-week-old OsxCre;Rosa26dn/dn mice exhibited VAD-like craniofacial skeletal deformities,including smaller size of the skull and osteogenesis imperfecta compared to their control littermates.Conclusion·An osteoblast-specific dnRARα expressing mouse model that can mimic VAD-like craniofacial skeletal deformity is successfully constructed,therefore providing a new model for exploring the pathogenesis and therapeutic targets of VAD-like craniofacial skeletal deformity in the future.

Objective To explore the relevant protective/risk factors during the development of coronary heart disease blood stasis evidence in the process of pre-existing evidence based on the macro-,meso-,and micro-health state characterization parameter system of Chinese medicine state science.Methods 253 cases of coronary heart disease to be investigated were collected from the outpatient and inpatient departments of the Department of Cardiology in the hospitals affiliated to Hunan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine,and questionnaires were formulated according to the three dimensions of macro,meso,and micro,and the collected parameters were categorized with Python software,and the patients were diagnosed as pre-coronary heart disease blood stasis evidence(150 cases)and coronary heart disease blood stasis evidence(100 cases),and statistical analyses were performed with frequency analysis,χ2 test,and Logistic regression and other methods for statistical analysis.Results ①The results of univariate analysis showed that:age,BMI,history of smoking,history of alcohol consumption,history of hypertension,history of diabetes mellitus,average monthly high temperature,air quality,season,type of occupation,social environment,coronary artery angiographic stenosis,diastolic blood pressure,systolic blood pressure,creatinine,uric acid and total cholesterol differed between patients diagnosed as pre-Coronary artery disease blood stasis evidence and those diagnosed as Coronary artery disease blood stasis evidence,and all the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).② Binary logistic regression analysis showed that age,BMI,history of alcohol consumption,type of occupation,coronary angiographic stenosis,diastolic blood pressure,creatinine,and dark red tongue were independent risk factors.A prediction model was established:P=1/[1+exp(16.522-1.427×age-0.975×BMI-3.55×drinking history+1.982×monthly average high temperature+0.709×season-1.827×occupational type-1.1×coronary angiographic stenosis-0.072×diastolic blood pressure-0.076×creatinine+2.398×dizziness-4.108×dark red tongue+4.169×pulse asthenia)],the model prediction rate was 90.5%.Conclusion The logistic regression model of coronary heart disease with blood stasis evidence is good with clinical diagnosis,which lays the foundation for the exploration of the state between the already diseased and undiseased of coronary heart disease,and provides important basic data for the theory of subhealth.
