In recent years， hyperuricemia （HUA） has shown a rapidly increasing incidence and tends to occur in increasingly young people， with a wide range of cardiac， renal， joint， and cancerous hazards and all-cause mortality associations. Western medicine treatment has limitations such as large liver and kidney damage， medication restriction， and easy recurrence. The intestine is the major extra-renal excretion pathway for uric acid （UA）， and the intestinal microecology can be regulated to promote UA degradation. It offers great potential to develop UA-lowering strategies that target the intestinal microecology， which are promising to provide safer and more effective therapeutic approaches. Traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） can treat HUA via multiple targets and multiple pathways from a holistic view， with low toxicity and side effects. Studies have shown that intestinal microecology is a crucial target for TCM in the treatment of HUA. However， its specific mechanism of action has not been fully elucidated. Focusing on the key role of intestinal microecology in HUA， this review explores the relationship between intestinal microecology and HUA in terms of intestinal flora， intestinal metabolites， intestinal UA transporters， and intestinal barriers. Furthermore， we summarize the research progress in TCM treatment of HUA by targeting the intestinal microecology， with the aim of providing references for the development of TCM intervention strategies for HUA and the direction of future research.

This paper interprets the disease name related to bi （痹） disease in traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） from the perspective of micropathological phenotypes in knee osteoarthritis （KOA）. By systematically reviewing classical TCM literature on the pathogenesis and clinical features of different subtypes such as damp-retention bi， bone bi， and tendon bi， and integrating these with current research on pathological subtypes of KOA including the synovitis type， cartilage-meniscus type， and subchondral bone type， the study explores the correlation between traditional disease terms and modern micropathological phenotypes. The author proposes subtype classifications of damp-retention bi corresponding to synovial inflammation， bone bi related to abnormal subchondral bone remodeling， and tendon bi representing cartilage and meniscus degeneration. This approach provides a microscopic biological explanation for TCM syndrome differentiation and offers new perspectives for advancing integrative diagnostic and therapeutic strategies in both Chinese and western medicine.

The ethical basis of public health policy is relatively weakness, which is mainly reflected in the conflict between individual rights and public interests, the lack of moral norm, the short of ethical review, the low level of relevant legislation, the weak of ethical consciousness and so on. Therefore, it is necessary to take measures to improve relevant ethical policies and regulations, establish an ethical framework for evaluating public health policies, highlight ethical values and strengthen ethical awareness in public health policy-making. Make it carry a certain ethical dimension to achieve the purposes of maintaining and improving health.

Objective To investigate the nutritional status and dietary structure of tuberculosis patients among dif-ferent populations, analyze the factors influencing the nutritional status of tuberculosis patients, and provide theo-retical basis for improving clinical nutrition and related issues in tuberculosis patients.Methods Tuberculosis pa-tients, non-tuberculosis patients, and healthy individuals were randomly selected for a questionnaire survey.De-scriptive analysis was conducted using SPSS 20.0 software.Statistical description was performed using rates and composition ratios, and qualitative data were described using relative numbers.Chi-square test was used to compare overall rates and composition ratios among different health conditions groups, with a significance level of α=0.05.Independent factors analysis of nutritional status body mass index (BMI) was conducted using multiple Logistic re-gression analysis for variables with statistically significant differences in the univariate analysis.Results There were differences in the nutritional status (x2 =62.184, P<0.05) and dietary diversity score (x2 =64.049, P<0.05) among tuberculosis patients, non-tuberculosis patients, and healthy individuals.Univariate analysis of nutri-tional status BMI showed statistically significant differences in gender, smoking, meat-based diet, vegetable-based diet, moderate diet diversity score, and 6 other variables for tuberculosis patients (P <0.05) , and in gender, age, ethnicity, marital status, occupation, education level, smoking, drinking white wine, drinking beer, meat-based diet, moderate diet, and 11 other variables for healthy individuals (P<0.05) .The variables with statisti-cally significant differences in the univariate analysis were included in the multiple ordinal logistic regression analy-sis model for both tuberculosis patients and healthy individuals.The results showed that the level of education, veg-etable intake, moderate food diversity score (DDS) of 4-6 were independent influencing factors of nutritional sta-tus BMI among tuberculosis patients (P<0.05);marital status was an independent influencing factor of nutritional status BMI among non-tuberculosis patients (P<0.05);while gender and occupation were independent influencing factors of nutritional status BMI among healthy individuals (P<0.05).Conclusion The dietary nutritional status of the three population groups varied.Targeted health education should be conducted, especially for tuberculosis patients, to address the issue of uneven dietary intake and promote good dietary habits among local tuberculosis pa-tients.

Osteoporosis and knee osteoarthritis often co-occur and are closely related in terms of epidemiology， clinical symptoms， pathogenesis and other aspects. Therefore， it is necessary to manage the co-morbidity and treat the two as a whole. Based on the overall relationship between wei （痿） and bi （痹） in TCM， it is believed that osteoporosis and knee osteoarthritis have marrow loss and bone atrophy as the core pathogenesis of co-morbidity， and microfractures as the central pathological link. The overall treatment is rooted in boosting kidney， supplementing marrow and strengthening the bones. According to the pathological manifestations of microfractures in the process of co-morbidity， and the different deficiency and excess characteristics of wei and bi， it can be divided into three types， "wei emerging with mild bi"， "wei and bi progressing simultaneously"， and "emphasis on both wei and bi"， for treatment. In terms of "wei emerging with mild bi"， that is the early stage of osteoporosis， the traditional Daoyin （导引） is the main therapy. For "wei and bi progressing simultaneously"， it can be divided into three stages further， including the onset stage， remission stage， and recovery stage of knee pain， treated with Taohong Siwu Decoction （桃红四物汤）， Bushen Huoxue Formula （补肾活血方） and self-made Bushen Qianggu Formula （补肾强骨方） as the main formula respectively. For "emphasis on both wei and bi"， the proven formula， Qianggu Zhitong Formula （强骨止痛方）， is taken as the main prescription.

AIM:To explore the core target and mechanism of α-Linolenic acid(ALA)in improving neuroinflammation through network pharmacology combined with in vitro experiments.METHODS:Pharmacological studies have shown that ALA has anti-inflammatory,antioxidant,and neuroprotec-tive properties.The targets of α-Linolenic acid were obtained from PharmMapper and Swiss Tar-get Prediction databases,the targets of neuroin-flammation were searched from GeneCards,TTD and OMIM databases,and the potential targets of ALA and neuroinflammation were obtained from Wayne diagram.Protein interaction network(pro-tein-protein interaction,PPI)of potential targets was constructed by STRING website,and the core targets in PPI were screened by Cytoscape 3.8.0 software.At the same time,potential targets are imported into DAVID database,GO and KEGG data were obtained and the results were visualized.Autodock vina and Pymol software were used to dock the selected core targets with ALA and visual-ize the results.An in vitro model of neuroinflamma-tion was constructed,and cell growth status,oxida-tive stress,and migration or repairing capacity were determined by CCK-8 analysis,SOD,MDA and cell scratches,and the expression of IL-6,iba 1,COX-2(PTGS2),and iNOS proteins was determined by ELISA or Western blot experiments.RESULTS:Network pharmacology analysis revealed 46 poten-tial targets of ALA for neuroinflammation,and 10 core targets,including IL-6 and PTGS 2.With 232 entries enriched by GO enrichment analysis and 70 signaling pathways enriched by KEGG enrichment analysis,molecular docking showed that ALA can form hydrogen bonding with COX-2.Experiments showed that ALA could improve cell viability,allevi-ate cell oxidative stress levels,and promote cell mi-gration and motor repair in an in vitro model of neuroinflammation.CONCLUSIONS:ALA may im-prove neuroinflammation by alleviating oxidative stress and inhibiting IL-6 and COX-2 protein expres-sion.

ZHANG Zhongjing's Zhenwutang is a classic formula for warming Yang and excreting water. It is composed of Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata， Poria， Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma， Paeoniae Radix Alba， and Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens. Physicians of later generations have inherited and developed this formula by detailed recording and application. This paper adopted bibliometrics method to analyze Zhenwutang in terms of history， indications， dosage， drug processing， usage， and modification. The results showed that Zhenwutang was most widely used in Ming and Qing dynasties. Many physicians have inherited ZHANG Zhongjing's theory regarding the application of Zhenwutang in disease treatment， and a few physicians have used it to treat diphtheria and water-related diseases. Some physicians modified this formula to treat maculae， intermittent dysentery， jaundice and so on. Zhenwutang was mainly used to treat diseases of the circulatory system， respiratory system and urinary system in modern clinical practice. The processing of herbal medicines in this formula was clear. Specifically， the raw material of Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata needed to be processed and peeled， while those of Poria， Atractylodis Macrocephalae Rhizoma， Paeoniae Radix Alba， and Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens can be used directly. Although being different， most of the dosages were consistent with those in Treatise on Febrile Diseases. According to the textual research， it is suggested that the reference dosage of this prescription in clinical practice is 41.25 g for Poria， Paeoniae Radix Alba， and Zingiberis Rhizoma Recens， respectively， 27.5 g for Atractylodes macrocephala， and 15 g for Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparata. The medicinal materials should be decocted in 1 600 mL water to reach a volume of 600 mL. After removal of the residues， the decoction should be taken warm with 140 mL each time， three times a day. The textual research of Zhenwutang is expected to provide a theoretical reference for the clinical application and formulation of Zhenwutang.

With the acceleration of social rhythm， the progress of science and technology， and the increase of the number of phubbers， the incidence of cervical degenerative diseases is also increasing year by year. Cervical spondylotic radiculopathy（CSR）， as one of the diseases induced by cervical degeneration， has seriously affected people's quality of life and physical and mental health. Traditional Chinese medicine（TCM） is effective in the treatment of CSR， but the theoretical and basic experimental evidence is not sufficient， and the current formulation standard of animal model is not unified. Therefore， based on the clinical guidelines of Chinese and Western medicine for CSR and the characteristics of the disease and syndrome， the author systematically summarized and analyzed the existing animal models， and found that the existing models of microvascular clamp nerve root compression method had a poor agreement with the the Chinese and Western medical guidelines， while the modeling methods of spinal canal insertion， autologous bone insertion compression， stainless steel column compression， and fixed frame cervical degeneration reflected a high degree of agreement in the Western medical guidelines. However， the Chinese medical diagnostic criteria were poorly matched. This indicates that the existing animal models of this disease show few TCM syndrome elements， and lack information collection and evaluation in animal behavioral evaluation similar to the four diagnoses of TCM. In conclusion， this paper aims to systematically evaluate the current status of animal model establishment of CSR based on the concept of combination of disease and syndrome， so as to provide a theoretical basis for the model establishment of CSR that is more consistent with clinical characteristics and symptoms of Chinese and Western medicine.
