		                        			 With the wide application of phacoemulsification and intraocular lens implantation, many cataract patients have effectively recovered vision. Postoperative intraocular lens opacification is an important indicator for evaluating biocompatibility, as it affects the visual quality of patients. The manifestation and risk factors of opacification vary among different materials used for intraocular lenses. However, better visual quality after surgery is not determined by a single factor. The material of the intraocular lens and the patient's response to the intraocular lens are all factors that affect the postoperative visual quality. With the continuous advancement of technology, an increasing number of new materials are being applied in the field of intraocular lenses. Fully understanding the characteristics of intraocular lens materials, selecting suitable intraocular lens for patients and reducing complications caused by materials will be beneficial to patients. The characteristics of different intraocular lens materials and the risk factors of opacification after intraocular lens implantation were discussed in this paper.

		                        			Basic research and interdisciplinary application of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) have been continuously extended and rapidly developed with the continuous funding and promotion of basic research on TCM supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC), and the overall level of basic research on TCM has been significantly improved, which has made important contributions to the diagnosis and treatment mechanism of TCM by "clarifying, identifying, and interpreting", providing benchmark guarantees for basic research and industry development of TCM. This article focused on the application and funded projects of NSFC in 2023 under the H31 application code of TCM. It analyzed the project types, branch codes, research question categories, supporting units and regions, research directions, and keywords and summarized the characteristics of the currently funded projects in H31. At the same time, it analyzed the relevant problems in the project application process and put forward several suggestions, so as to provide a reference for scholars in the field of TCM. In 2023, a total of 8 334 applications for three types of projects (general projects, projects for young scholars, and regional projects) under the H31 code have been received by NSFC, which is the highest number in the past five years. However, the proportion of funding is still on a downward trend, and there is fierce competition among applicants. Finally, 804 projects for the three categories under the H31 code have been funded. The total funding decreased in 2022, and the average funding amount of the general project and the regional project has dropped to the lowest in the past five years. It is found that the development of branch research and the research questions under the H31 code is unbalanced. Few projects have focused on the original theory of TCM. Some projects are detached from the characteristics and research laws of TCM. Most researchers lack innovative research ideas, and the applications they write are filled with routines and patterns. In addition, the issue of scientific integrity remains a primary principle for project applicants.

		                        			This paper summarized the characteristics of constitution, disease, and syndrome of five different phenotypes of bronchial asthma including allergic asthma, cough variant asthma, chest tightness variant asthma, psychological stress asthma, and hormone-dependent asthma, and systematically expounds the application of three-dimensional diagnosis and treatment pattern, that is differentiation of constitution, disease and syndromes in the five phenotypes of bronchial asthma. It is considered that the allergic constitution is the main one of bronchial asthma, which is usually combined with the constitutions of qi-deficiency, yin-deficiency, yang-deficiency, qi-stagnation and others. In the treatment of bronchial asthma, constitution, disease and syndromes should all be taken into account but applied flexibly according to the order of the urgency and priority. The three-dimensional diagnosis and treatment pattern can reflect the essential characteristics and clinical panorama of bronchial asthma more comprehensively and objectively and provide effective intervention measures and management programs for the prevention and treatment by traditional Chinese medicine.

		                        			Vaginal birth after cesarean (VBAC) can reduce the cesarean section rate and has many benefits for both mother and infant. Decision-making aids can promote communication between doctors and patients regarding childbirth methods and increase pregnant women's informed consent and decision-making participation in VBAC, thereby supporting pregnant women in making choices and improving the quality of childbirth decisions. This article summarizes the content of VBAC decision-making aids, evaluation of different VBAC decision-making aids, application of VBAC decision-making aids, and obstacles to the application of VBAC decision-making aids in China to provide reference for the development and application of domestic childbirth decision-making aids.

		                        			Objective The study aimed to assess the folic acid status of lactating women in China and to analyze factors related to folic acid deficiency in these subjects. Methods The data on lactating women were extracted from the Chinese National Nutrition and Health Surveillance in 2013. By a multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method, 10 331 lactating women were selected for the study. The lactating women, 0-24 months postpartum, were from 55 sites in 30 provinces of China, excluding the Tibet Autonomous Region. A standard questionnaire was used to obtain general information and dietary intake during the previous one month period was collected using a food frequency questionnaire. A total of 20% of the total number of lactating women were randomly selected to analyze serum folic acid. Finally, 1 894 lactating women, with questionnaire results and serum folic acid data, were included in the study. Serum folic acid concentrations were analyzed using an electro-chemiluminescence immunoassay method. Folic acid deficiency was defined as a serum folic acid level<2 ng/ml. A multiple logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the factors associated with folic acid deficiency in these women. Results After excluding abnormal values, 1 894 lactating women were included in the study. Based on our findings, the prevalence of folate deficiency was 3.0% (56/1 894) in lactating women in China. The prevalence of folic 
 acid deficiency was 0.3% (1/388), 1.3% (7/550), 6.0% (38/639) and 3.2% (10/317) in larger, medium or small cities, general rural counties and poor rural counties, respectively. The prevalence of folic acid deficiency was 6.3% (17/269) and 2.4% (39/1 623) for minority and Han ethnic groups, respectively, and was 6.3% (52/823) and 0.4% (4/1 071) for subjects in northern and southern areas of China, respectively. Binary unconditionally logistic regression was used to analyze the factors associated with folic acid deficiency in the lactating women. The results showed that, compared with those living in the south and those in the Han ethnic group, those living in the north and belonging to the minority ethnic group had a greater risk of folic acid deficiency, with (OR=3.63, 95%CI: 1.64-8.05) and (OR=5.42, 95%CI: 1.75-16.74), respectively. With each month of age during childhood, the prevalence of folic acid deficiency decreased by 10%(OR=0.90, 95%CI:0.85-0.96). Compared with low income subjects, those with middle incomes had OR (95%CI) of 0.25 (0.10-0.60) for folic acid deficiency. A lesser intake of cereal was associated with a greater risk of folic acid deficiency in lactating women (OR=3.04, 95%CI:1.18-7.79). A lesser intake of tubers was a protective factor for folic acid deficiency in lactating women (OR=0.29, 95%CI:0.12-0.70). Conclusion The folic acid status of Chinese lactating women has, in general, recently improved. However, living in northern areas, during early lactating periods, belonging to an ethnic minority, living in rural areas, having a low income, lower intake of cereal and excessive intake of tubers were risk factors for folic acid deficiency in lactating women. In these women, folic acid intervention should be considered a priority.
