The Compilation Instructions for Expert Consensus on Clinical Application of Dieda Huoxue capsules systematically expound the development methods and evidence-based basis of this consensus. In view of the weak clinical application evidence and ambiguous indications of Dieda Huoxue capsules, the Institute of Basic Research in Clinical Medicine of the China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences and Wangjing Hospital took the lead and collaborated with 33 experts from 28 medical institutions nationwide. They strictly followed the World Health Organization (WHO) guideline-making norms and the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluations (GRADE) evidence-grading system and completed the compilation through multidisciplinary cooperation. The workflow included constructing clinical questions (19 items were screened by the nominal group technique), retrieving evidence (from Chinese and English databases and grey literature), assessing safety (integrating drug monitoring data and clinical investigations), and forming recommendations and consensus suggestions (3 recommendations were reached via the GRADE grid method, and 16 consensus suggestions were reached by the majority vote rule). The results indicate that the consensus clearly states that this medicine (Dieda Huoxue capsules) is applicable to conditions like traumatic injury, blood stasis-induced pain, and sudden lumbar sprains. The recommended dose is 6 capsules each time, twice a day. Combining oral administration with external application can enhance the efficacy, and elderly patients should take the medicine at intervals. Safety monitoring suggests that it should be used with caution in people with a bleeding tendency and those with an allergic constitution. The compilation process involved three rounds of reviews by internal and external experts. Literature analysis, the Delphi method, and clinical applicability tests were employed to ensure methodological rigor. The compilation instructions comprehensively present key aspects such as project approval and registration, conflict-of-interest statements, and evidence evaluation through 12 appendices, providing methodological support for the clinical translation of the consensus. In the future, it will be continuously improved through a dynamic revision mechanism.

BACKGROUND:Currently,artificial valves used in heart valve operations include biological valves and mechanical valves.The design and processing of the biological valve bracket determine the shape of the biological valves,which in turn determines their service life. OBJECTIVE:Various lobe and bracket models were created based on the spatial geometric equation.Through a comparison of the deformation and stress distribution of various lobe and bracket models,a more rational bracket model was derived.Subsequently,3D printing technology was utilized to produce a solid model. METHODS:According to the geometric and mathematical models of the heart valve leaf and valve bracket,parabolic and ellipsoidal heart valve bracket models were created.Three-dimensional modeling was used to design the heart valve bracket.Two-way fluid-structure coupling analysis was conducted to analyze the force and deformation of the valve bracket in the blood flow field.An appropriate printing method and materials were selected to achieve 3D printing of the heart valve bracket. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The distribution rules of deformation,maximum principal stress,and maximum shear stress of the parabolic bracket and ellipsoidal bracket are the same.The deformation and stress of the ellipsoidal bracket were greater than those of the parabolic bracket.The distribution law of maximum principal stress and maximum shear stress was mainly concentrated in the joint part of the lobe and bracket.The total deformation,maximum principal stress,and maximum shear stress of the bracket decrease with the increase of the bracket diameter.

Objective:
To examine the causal relationship between food intake and atherosclerosis using two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) approach, so as to provide the reference for the prevention of atherosclerosis.
Methods:
Data of 16 types of food (grains, vegetables, fruits, meats, etc.) and 4 types of atherosclerosis (coronary atherosclerosis, cerebral atherosclerosis, peripheral atherosclerosis and other atherosclerosis) was collected through IEU OpenGWAS database, with food data comprising approximately 500 000 subjects and 9 851 867 SNPs and atherosclerosis data comprising approximately 200 000 subjects and 16 380 447 SNPs. The causal relationship was analyzed using inverse-variance weighted (IVW) method with food as the exposure variable and atherosclerosis as the outcome variable. Sensitivity analysis was performed using funnel plots and leave-one-out.
Results:
Dried fruit intake was associated with decreased risks of peripheral atherosclerosis (OR=0.195, 95%CI: 0.082-0.466) and other atherosclerosis (OR=0.208, 95%CI: 0.095-0.452), and cheese intake was associated with decreased risk of peripheral atherosclerosis (OR=0.575, 95%CI: 0.380-0.870). Coffee intake was associated with increased risk of coronary atherosclerosis (OR=1.645, 95%CI: 1.099-2.462), and alcohol intake was associated with increased risk of other atherosclerosis (OR=1.269, 95%CI: 1.032-1.561). There was no statistically significant association between 16 types of food and cerebral atherosclerosis. No horizontal pleiotropy was found, no single SNP had significant impact on the overall estimated value, and the funnel plots did not show significant bias.
Conclusion
Dried fruit and cheese intake are protective factors for atherosclerosis, while coffee and alcohol intake are risk factors for atherosclerosis.

Objective:To introduce a surgical technique of " short distances and multi-segment" buried-guiding suture method and its effects in the surgery of early descent of prosthesis after augmentation mammaplasty.Methods:From August 2019 to January 2022, 15 cases of early descent of prosthesis after augmentation mammaplasty due to axillary approach breast augmentation for micromastia were admitted to the Plastic Surgery Department of Sichuan Provincial People′s Hospital, aged 23-35 years (27.3±3.6) and duration of dislocation from 16 to 35 days (23.8±5.8). There were 12 patients showed unilateral prosthesis drops and 3 patients showed bilateral prosthesis drops. " Short distances and multi-segment" buried-guiding suture method was used to solve the problem, i. e., 2-0 non-absorbable sutures were used to eliminate the lower pole of prosthetic cavity with " short distances and multi-segment" sutures. The distance from the nipple to the midline of the sternum, the distance from the sternotomy to the nipple, the distance from the nipple to the inframammary fold and the distance from the midclavicular point to the inframammary fold were measured bilaterally before and after surgery, and statistical analysis was performed to evaluate the efficacy of the " short distances and multi-segment" buried-guiding suture method for early descent of prosthesis after breast augmentation.Results:All incisions healed by first intention without complications such as hematoma, infection, or scar hyperplasia. 15 patients were followed up for 6-12 months (8.0±1.9). 14 patients were satisfied with the results after surgery, and 1 patient received satisfactory results after secondary surgery. The distance from nipple to inframammary fold was shortened by 0.8-1.4 cm after surgery (1.2±0.2), and the distance from mid-clavicle to inframammary fold was shortened by 1.0-1.6 cm (1.3±0.4), and the differences were statistically significant as compared with the values before surgery ( t=31.17, P<0.05; t=33.78, P<0.05). After surgery, the change in the distance from nipple to sternal was 0.1-0.3 cm (0.16±0.10), and the change in the distance from sternal notch to nipple was 0-0.2 cm (0.12±0.10), and the differences were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Conclusions:With the advantages of simple operation, little trauma and no additional incision, the " short distance and multi-stage" buried-guiding suture method in the surgery of early descent of prosthesis after augmentation mammaplasty is worthy of clinical application.
