Postprandial drowsiness is a clinical condition characterized by pronounced drowsiness after meals， while The Inner Canon of Yellow Emperor （《黄帝内经》） associates this condition with wei qi （defensive qi）. By analyzing the original texts of The Inner Canon of Yellow Emperor and perspectives from many medical professionals， it is found that the transition between wakefulness and sleep depends on the mutual induction of yin and yang， and that the two pathways of wei qi circulation intersect at the spleen and stomach. Based on this， the core pathogenesis of postprandial drowsiness is proposed to be either upper jiao obstruction or spleen-stomach dysfunction， leading to the stagnation of wei qi internally， then the mutual induction of yin and yang causes inward invasion of wei qi in the body， resulting in drowsiness； at this stage， the stagnated and inward invasive wei qi converges at the spleen and stomach， then merges into the circulation of zang-fu organs， rerouting through the Foot Taiyang Meridian， forming a circulation pattern described as "circulating from yin to yang". Treatment should focus on the root and branch simultaneously， with the primary goal of regulating the circulation of wei qi； facilitating its transition from yin to yang to restore the sleep-wake cycle. By proposing the model of wei qi circulating from yin to yang， this study offers novel insights on the understanding of postprandial drowsiness.

OBJECTIVE To know about the perception and current status of drug risk management among pharmacists in Chinese medical institutions， providing insights and recommendations for enhancing the drug risk management system in medical institutions. METHODS A questionnaire survey was conducted across 28 provinces， cities， and autonomous regions； stratified radom sampling was employed to study the population of medical workers and pharmaceutical professionals in medical institutions nationwide. The survey included information on the survey population， the current status of drug risk management implementation in medical institutions， the cognition， definition and process of drug risk management related concepts， and the content and mode of drug risk management work in medical institutions. Finally， suggestions were collected from various medical institutions on the system construction of drug risk management. Descriptive statistical analysis was adopted to summarize the obtained data. RESULTS A total of 446 questionnaires were collected in this survey， including 420 valid questionnaires and 26 invalid questionnaires. The questionnaire collection rate was 100%，and the effective rate was 94.17%. 51.19% of the respondents No.2020YFC2009001）。 based their understanding of drug risk management on Management Measures for Adverse Drug Reaction Reports and Monitoring， while 87.38% recognized the need for drug risk management throughout the drug use process. 63.33% of the participants stated that their medical institutions had dedicated positions related to drug risk management， with the highest proportion （72.17%） was in third-grade class A medical institutions. 66.43% reported implementing risk management across all drug use stages. Suggestions for the development of drug risk management systems in medical institutions by the research participants focused on enhancing guiding documents， clarifying concepts， establishing information-sharing mechanisms. CONCLUSIONS The overall awareness of drug risk management in China’s medical institutions is high， with practices in place across various stages in multiple forms. However， there remains a need to strengthen institutional documents， management regulations， system development， and information-sharing mechanisms to improve collaborative governance， improve drug management levels， and ensure patient safety.

To summarize Professor GAO Shuzhong's clinical experience in treating idiopathic tinnitus with a combination of acupuncture and Chinese meteria medica. It is believed that idiopathic tinnitus is mostly caused by weak lungs and spleen， kidney essence deficiency， liver constraint transforming into fire， and binding constraint of heart qi. Treatment advocates the combination of acupuncture and Chinese meteria medica in clinical practice. Acupuncture treatment mainly focus on the method of opening the orifices by syndrome identification in combination with Ermen （TE 21）， Tinggong （SI 19）， Tinghui （GB 2）， Shenmai （BL 62） to regulate qi and blood， and supporting with Baihui （GV 20）， Yintang （EX-HN 3）， Taichong （LR 3）， and Yanglingquan （GB 34） to soothe the liver， resolve constraint， and calm the mind. Oral administration of Chinese medicinal prescription usually includes modified Yiqi Congming Decoction （益气聪明汤） and Tongqi Powder （通气散）， and the external administration of Chinese medicinal prescription can apply self-prescribed Wenqing Powder （温清散） to navel moxibustion.

ObjectiveTo clarify the application value of nutritional scoring in patients with sepsis and explore the impact of the modified Nutritional Risk in Critically Ill （mNUTRIC） score on the in-hospital fatality of sepsis patients in the emergency intensive care unit （EICU）. MethodsA retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data and laboratory examination results of 436 sepsis patients treated in the EICU of Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2021 to May 2024. The patients were divided into survival group （298 cases） and death group （138 cases） according to whether they died or not during hospital treatment， and then compared the two groups’ data. Logistic multi-factor regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors for in-hospital death and the ROC curve to evaluate the predictive value of each risk factor for the prognosis of sepsis patients. ResultsThe death group exhibited higher Acute Physiology and Chronic Health EvaluationⅡ（APACHE Ⅱ） score， Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 （NRS 2002） score， mNUTRIC score， Sequential Organ Failure Assessment （SOFA） score， Padua Prediction Score for Venous Thromboembolism， the proportions of chronic kidney failure and pneumonia patients， C-reactive protein （CRP） level， lactate concentration and neutrophil count， but lower prognostic nutritional index， cholinesterase level， cholinesterase-albumin ratio and lymphocyte count than the survival group， with statistical significance （all P<0.05）. Logistic regression analysis revealed that the mNUTRIC score ［OR=1.254， 95%CI （1.109，1.417）］， CRP ［OR=1.004， 95%CI （1，1.007）］， and pneumonia ［OR=1.82， 95%CI （1.017， 3.257）］ were independent risk factors for in-hospital death in sepsis patients. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve （AUC） of the mNUTRIC score for predicting in-hospital death in sepsis patients was 0.683 ［95%CI （0.623，0.742）］， with a sensitivity of 83% and a specificity of 49.3%. The AUC for CRP and pneumonia were 0.602 ［95%CI （0.533， 0.671）］， and 0.582 ［95%CI （0.516，0.647）］. ConclusionThe mNUTRIC score is an independent predictive indicator for in-hospital death in sepsis patients in the EICU.

Objective To investigate the accuracy and application value of the Tada formula in evalua-ting the meningioma volume based on 3D reconstruction technology.Methods The thin-slice magnetic reso-nance images of 297 patients with meningioma treated in the neurosurgery department of 940 Hospital of PLA Joint logistics Support Force from January 2014 to May 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.The meningioma volume was evaluated by the Tada formula method and three-dimensional reconstruction method respectively.The accuracy of the evaluation of meningeal tumor volume by the Tada formula was analyzed by grouping sta-tistics.Results In the whole sample and the concentrated sample,the obtained meningioma total volumes had no statistical difference between the two methods(P＞0.05),the Spearman correlation coefficients were 0.995 and 0.993 respectively,and the intragroup correlation coefficients(ICC)were 0.992 and 0.989,respec-tively.In the Bland-Altman plot,most of the data points were within the limit of uniformity.Compared with different groups,the Tada formula had a slightly lower accuracy in the volume assessment of meningiomas with higher degree of irregularity,and a better accuracy in the volume assessment of supratentorial meningio-mas than subtentorial meningiomas.Conclusion The Tada formula could accurately evaluate the volume of meningioma,and it could be used as a preliminary method to evaluate meningioma volume in clinic

Objective To explore the pharmacological effects and regulatory mechanisms of Carthami Flos water extract and its main constituent,hydroxysafflower yellow A(HSYA),on primary dysmenorrhea rats with cold coagulation and blood stasis.Methods Forty-two female specific pathogen-free grade rats aged 6-8 weeks were divided into blank,model,HSYA(0.01 g/kg),ibuprofen(0.04 g/kg),and low(0.06 g/kg),medium(0.20 g/kg),and high(0.40 g/kg)Carthami Flos water extract dose groups using the random number table method,with six rats per group.A rat model was established using ice water bath stimulation combined with estradiol benzoate and oxytocin.Continuous gavage was administered for 6 days from the seventh day of modeling.After the intervention,the writhing reaction test was conducted.The rats,uteri,and ovaries were weighed to calculate the organ index.An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and radioimmunoassay were used to detect the prostaglandin E2(PGE2)and prostaglandin F2α(PGF2α)contents in the uterus,thromboxane B2(TXB2)and 6-keto-prostaglondin F1α(6-keto-PGF1α)in plasma,and estradiol(E2)in the serum.Hematoxylin and eosin staining were used to detect the pathological changes in uterine tissue.Immunohistochemistry was used to determine cyclooxygenase-2(COX-2)expression in uterine tissue,whereas immunofluorescence was used to measure follicle-stimulating hormone receptor(FSH-R)expression in ovarian tissue.Western blotting was used to detect gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptor(GnRH-R)and FSH-R expression in uterine tissue.Results Compared with the blank group,the rats in the model group exhibited an increase in uterine and ovarian indices and increased PGE2 and PGF2α in the uterus.TXB2 in the plasma and E2 in the serum were also evaluated.Additionally,6-keto-PGF1α decreased,and COX-2,GnRH-R,and FSH-R expression in the uterus and FSH-R expression in the ovaries also increased(P＜0.05).The morphology of the uterine tissue was disordered.Compared with the model group,the low Carthami Flos water extract dose group showed a decrease in uterine index(P＜0.05).In the medium and high Carthami Flos water extract dose groups,the writhing response decreased,as did the uterine and ovarian indicesand PGE2 and TXB2 contents.The 6-keto-PGF1α content increased,whereas the GnRH-R protein expression in the uterus decreased(P＜0.05).The high Carthami Flos water extract dose group also showed a decrease in PGF2α and FSH-R protein expression in the uterus(P＜0.05).In the HSYA group,the writhing response decreased,the uterine and ovarian indices decreased,the PGE2,PGF2α,and TXB2 contents decreased,and GnRH-R and FSH-R protein expression decreased in the uterus(P＜0.05).The serum E2 levels of the groups that received Carthami Flos water extract at various doses and those of the HSYA group were reduced,and the uterine morphology was improved.COX-2 expression in the uterus and FSH-R protein expression in the ovaries were also reduced(P＜0.05).Conclusion Carthami Flos water extract and HSYA can improve the pathological state of primary dysmenorrhea rats with cold coagulation and blood stasis.Its mechanism may be related to regulating the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovary axis.

Objective:To explore the etiology of primary amenorrhea,analyze its clinical features,and improve the level of clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 75 patients with primary amenorrhea who attended the gynecological endocrine clinic of Nanjing Women and Children's Healthcare Hospital from January 2020 to September 2022,and the etiology of their diagnosis was ana-lyzed.Results:aChromosomal karyotype analysis showed 14 cases(18.67％)of abnormal karyotypes,including 2 cases of autosomal abnormalities,7 cases of sex chromosome abnormalities,and 5 cases of sexual differentia-tion abnormalities.②According to reproductive hormones,there were 15 cases(20.00％)of hypogonadotropic a-menorrhea and 18 cases(24.00％)of hypergonadotropic amenorrhea.③By the location of the cause,utero-inferi-or genital tract amenorrhea was the most common in 23 cases(30.67％),including 20 cases of mayer-rokitan-sky-küster-hauser syndrome(MRKH syndrome)and 3 cases of androgen insensitivity syndrome(AIS).It was followed by ovarian amenorrhea in 18 cases(24.00％)including 6 cases of Turners syndrome,10 cases of 46,XX simple gonadal hypoplasia and 2 cases of 46,XY gonadal hypoplasia(Swyer syndrome);hypothalamic-pituitary amenorrhea in 17 cases(22.67％),including idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism(IHH)in 9 cases,Kall-mann s syndrome in 4 cases,and hyperprolactinemia in 4 cases;and also amenorrhea with hyperandrogenic mani-festations in 17 cases(22.67％),with a higher number of suspicious polycystic ovary syndrome in 16 cases.Con-clusions:Primary amenorrhea has a variety of etiologies and clinical features,and requires examination of sex hormones and pelvic ultrasound from the lower genital tract up to the central nervous system to find the site of the etiology and to optimize the diagnostic process;in the case of hypogonadotropic amenorrhea,chromosomal test is necessary.

Objective To investigate the protective effect of the compound drug Weng-Li-Tong(WLT)against cisplatin(CDDP)-induced hepatocyte injury.Methods A cellular injury model was established by treating murine hepatocyte line BNL CL.2 with CDDP(80 μmol/L).Experimental groups were divided as follows:CDDP group(modeling only),WLT group(intervention with 1 g/L WLT),WLT+CDDP group(co-administration of CDDP and 1 g/L WLT),and a control group(normal culture).The protective effect of the compound drug WLT on CDDP-mediated hepatocyte injury was evaluated using CCK-8 assay,PI staining,crystal violet staining,Western blotting,reactive oxygen species(ROS)detection,and apoptosis analysis.Results Compared with the control group,the number of dead cells increased significantly(P＜0.001)in the CDDP group,but no cytotoxicity was observed in the WLT group.The hepatocyte morphology in the WLT+CDDP group showed improvement with no obvious shrinkage compared to the CDDP group,as evidenced by the reduced proportion of PI-positive cells.Crystal violet staining results also indicated a higher cell count in the WLT+CDDP group than in the CDDP group,suggesting the protective effect of WLT against CDDP-mediated liver injury.Under CDDP intervention,the expression of the apoptosis-related protein Cleaved Caspase-3 increased.However,in the WLT+CDDP group,the expression of Cleaved Caspase-3 decreased,while the expression of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 increased.Additionally,compared to the CDDP group,the WLT+CDDP group showed a reduction in ROS production[DCFH-DA staining positive rate(％):56.20±1.65 vs.44.57±0.31]and a decrease in the proportion of apoptotic cells[proportion of early and late apoptotic cells(％):43.60±0.44 vs.19.57±0.78;33.30±1.02 vs.14.83±0.57].Conclusion The compound drug WLT exhibits a protective effect against CDDP-mediated hepatocyte injury,suggesting potential therapeutic value in acute liver injury models.

Objective:To systematically review the non-surgical and minimally invasive treatment techniques for diabetic foot ulcers, in order to provide evidence-based medical reference for orthopedic surgeons in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers.Methods:Chinese and English databases such as PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang and VIP were used to search the literature related to non-surgical and minimally invasive treatment of diabetic foot ulcers. The retrieval time was set to September 2023. The key words were Diabetic Foot Ulcer, Minimally Invasive Surgical Treatment, Non-surgical Treatment. According to the research type of the included literature, the quality of the included literature was evaluated by selecting corresponding tools. The outcome measures mainly included treatment response rate, amputation rate, mortality rate and other measures related to treatment effect. The Medical Literature King software was used to screen literatures and extract relevant data for systematic review.Results:In this study, 20 articles were included. There were 15 studies from China, 2 studies from Egypt, 2 study from the United States, and 1 study from Sweden. There were 16 high quality literatures and 4 low quality literatures. Among them, there were five non-surgical treatment techniques of diabetic foot ulcers, including customized diabetic foot insoles, autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) , Chinese medicine treatment, external dressing therapy, and vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) technology. There were two minimally invasive treatment techniques for diabetic foot ulcer, including vascular intervention technology and periosteal distraction technology. The plastic surgeon should choose the appropriate treatment technique according to the specific situation of the patient with DFUs. Diabetes custom insoles were mainly used in the treatment of patients with recurrent DFUs or Wagner grade 0. For DFUs patients with Wagner grade 1 and above, the effect of PRP, VSD and vascular intervention techniques were more significant. Traditional Chinese medicine also showed significant result in the treatment of DFUs patients with Wagner grade 1 and above. Topical dressing treatment was often used for daily dressing change of DFUs to promote wound healing. Periosteal distraction technique was less invasive and had significant therapeutic effect on severe DFUs.Conclusions:Non-surgical and minimally invasive techniques are effective in the treatment of DFUs. Plastic surgeons should master and reasonably choose these non-surgical and minimally invasive treatment techniques for the treatment of patients with DFUs according to the patients＇conditions and medical conditions.
