Guided by "triple-yang combination of diseases", it is believed that the core pathogenesis of acute respiratory infection in children is external cold and internal heat, and triple-yang combination, and its transmission can be divided into two forms. First, the taiyang syndrome usually happens earlier, presenting as the exterior cold in taiyang is not yet resolved, and inward penetration of exterior cold transfers into heat, which combines the disease of shaoyang and yangming; second, yangming meridian already has internal heat, then meets with taiyang meridian externally infected with pathogenic qi, both internal and external pathogens accumulated in the two meridians and affected shaoyang meridian. It is proposed that the therapeutic method should release the exterior and clean the interior, and treat the triple-yang at the same time, with self-prescribed Chaige Gaore Formula (柴葛高热方) as the empirical formula for the treatment of acute respiratory infections in children.

Allergen-specific immunotherapy(AIT) remains the only therapeutic approach with the potential to modify the natural course of allergic rhinitis(AR). Nevertheless, considerable inter-individual variability exists in patients'responses to AIT. To facilitate more reliable assessment of treatment efficacy, the China Rhinopathy Research Cooperation Group(CRRCG) convened young and middle-aged nasal experts in China to formulate the present consensus. The recommended subjective outcome measures for AIT comprise symptom scores, medication scores, combined symptom and medication scores, quality-of-life assessments, evaluation of disease control, and assessment of comorbidities. Objective indicators may supplement these measures. Currently available objective approaches include skin prick testing, nasal provocation testing, and allergen exposure chambers. However, these methods remain constrained by practical limitations and are not yet appropriate for routine implementation in clinical efficacy evaluation. In addition, several biomarkers, including sIgE and the sIgE/tIgE ratio, sIgG4, serum IgE-blocking activity, IgA, cytokines and chemokines, as well as immune cell surface molecules and their functional activity, have been shown to have associations with AIT outcomes. While these biomarkers may complement subjective assessments, they are subject to significant limitations. Consequently, large-scale multicenter trials and real-world evidence are required to strengthen the evidence base. The present consensus underscores the necessity of integrating patients'subjective experiences with objective testing throughout the treatment process, thereby providing a more comprehensive and accurate framework for efficacy evaluation. Looking forward, future investigations should prioritize the incorporation of multi-omics data and artificial intelligence methodologies, which hold promise for overcoming current limitations in assessment strategies and for advancing both the standardization and personalization of AIT.
