To explore the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） and integrative TCM-Western medicine approaches in the treatment of diabetic microvascular complications （DMC）， refine key pathophysiological insights and treatment principles， and promote academic innovation and strategic research planning in the prevention and treatment of DMC. The 38th session of the Expert Salon on Diseases Responding Specifically to Traditional Chinese Medicine， hosted by the China Association of Chinese Medicine， was held in Beijing， 2024. Experts in TCM， Western medicine， and interdisciplinary fields convened to conduct a systematic discussion on the pathogenesis， diagnostic and treatment challenges， and mechanism research related to DMC， ultimately forming a consensus on key directions. Four major research recommendations were proposed. The first is addressing clinical bottlenecks in the prevention and control of DMC by optimizing TCM-based evidence evaluation systems. The second is refining TCM core pathogenesis across DMC stages and establishing corresponding "disease-pattern-time" framework. The third is innovating mechanism research strategies to facilitate a shift from holistic regulation to targeted intervention in TCM. The fourth is advancing interdisciplinary collaboration to enhance the role of TCM in new drug development， research prioritization， and guideline formulation. TCM and integrative approaches offer distinct advantages in managing DMC. With a focus on the diseases responding specifically to TCM， strengthening evidence-based support and mechanism interpretation and promoting the integration of clinical care and research innovation will provide strong momentum for the modernization of TCM and the advancement of national health strategies.

Intraoperative cell salvage (IOCS) has been widely applied as an important blood conservation measure in surgical operations. However, there is currently a lack of clinical practice guidelines for the implementation of IOCS in patients with malignant tumors. This report aims to provide clinicians with recommendations on the use of IOCS in patients with malignant tumors based on the review and assessment of the existed evidence. Data were derived from databases such as PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library and Wanfang. The guideline development team formulated recommendations based on the quality of evidence, balance of benefits and harms, patient preferences, and health economic assessments. This study constructed seven major clinical questions. The main conclusions of this guideline are as follows: 1) Compared with no perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion (NPABT), perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion (PABT) leads to a more unfavorable prognosis in cancer patients (Recommended); 2) Compared with the transfusion of allogeneic blood or no transfusion, IOCS does not lead to a more unfavorable prognosis in cancer patients (Recommended); 3) The implementation of IOCS in cancer patients is economically feasible (Recommended); 4) Leukocyte depletion filters (LDF) should be used when implementing IOCS in cancer patients (Strongly Recommended); 5) Irradiation treatment of autologous blood to be reinfused can be used when implementing IOCS in cancer patients (Recommended); 6) A careful assessment of the condition of cancer patients (meeting indications and excluding contraindications) should be conducted before implementing IOCS (Strongly Recommended); 7) Informed consent from cancer patients should be obtained when implementing IOCS, with a thorough pre-assessment of the patient's condition and the likelihood of blood loss, adherence to standardized internally audited management procedures, meeting corresponding conditions, and obtaining corresponding qualifications (Recommended). In brief, current evidence indicates that IOCS can be implemented for some malignant tumor patients who need allogeneic blood transfusion after physician full evaluation, and LDF or irradiation should be used during the implementation process.

Five saponins were isolated from the kernels of Momordica cochinchinensis, by macroporous resin, silica gel, ODS column chromatography, and semi preparative HPLC. Based on MS and NMR analysis, combining with alkaline hydrolysis and acid hydrolysis, their structures were identified as: gypsogenin-3-O-{β-D-galactopyranosyl (1→2)-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1→3)]-β-D-glucuropyranonosyl}-28-O-β-D-xylopyranosyl (1→3)-[β-D-xylopyranosyl (1→4)]-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1→2)-β-D-fucopyranoside (1), quillaic acid-3-O-{β-D-galactopyranosyl (1→2)-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1→3)]-β-D-glucuropyranonosyl}-28-O-β-D-xylopyranosyl (1→3)-[β-D-xylopyranosyl (1→4)]-α-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1→2)-β-D-fucopyranoside (2), gypsogenin-3-O-β-D-galactopyranosyl (1→2)-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1→3)]-β-D-glucuropyranonoside sodium (3), quillaic acid-3-O-β-D-galactopyranosyl (1→2)-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1→3)]-β-D-glucuropyranonoside sodium (4), 18α-quillaic acid-3-O-β-D-galactopyranosyl (1→2)-[α-L-rhamnopyranosyl (1→3)]-β-D-glucuropyranonoside (5). Compounds 1-5 were new compounds, and named as mubezhisides A, B, C, D, E, respectively. They all could obviously inhibited the growth of Candida albicans, C. parapsilosis, and C. tropicalis.

Posterior urethral stricture, especially bulbar and membranous urethral stricture after pelvic fracture, is the most common type of traumatic urethral stricture.Due to the special anatomical characteristics of the posterior urethral region, such stricture is difficult to be treated with urethral alternatives.Transperineal urethral anastomosis is the best surgical method, but it is difficult and risky in patients with complicated long posterior urethral stricture.This article reviewes the operations in our center, summarizes and analyzes a variety of urethral tension-free anastomosis adjuvant techniques. According to different stages of the surgical process, this article provides a detailed introduction to the “pre-anastomosis” stage techniques, including free dissection of bulbar urethra, free dissection of distal urethra, incision of the septum of corpora cavernosa, splitting of the inferior margin of the pubis; “intra-anastomosis” stage techniques, including transposition of the crura of corpora cavernosa penis, perineal skin flap, transposition of penis, anastomosis of bladder neck and urethra, transfer of bladder flap; “post-anastomosis” stage techniques, including plication of corpora cavernosa penis, suspension of corpora spongiosum urethra, and analyze its application scenarios, so as to provide reference for clinical practice.In addition, we propose an innovative evaluation system, which enables surgeons to select different tension release techniques according to the specific direction and length of the urethral defect to achieve an accurate anastomosis.These reduction strategies can not only promote the smooth operation of anastomosis, but also significantly reduce the recurrence rate of urethral stricture.

Migraine is the most common neurological disorder with the highest disease burden， while the current outpatient diagnosis and treatment model cannot meet the requirements for reducing the disease burden of migraine， and it is necessary to reexamine its management from a patient-centered perspective. It should be recognized that the course of migraine is a dynamic process，and some clinical manifestations that are not included in the diagnostic criteria are meaningful for diagnosis.Several risk factors for the chronicity of migraine have been identified.In addition， various comorbidities can also affect diagnosis and treatment，and it is still unable to reliably predict the treatment response of migraine.Therefore， the management of migraine requires continuous revision of diagnosis and “trial-and-error” treatment.

Objective To compare the differences in alkaloids between Nelumbinis Semen and Nelumbinis Plumula and their inhibitory effects on the proliferation of HepG2 cells, and investigate the material basis for their anti-cancer activity differences. Methods Simultaneous Thermal Analysis was used to preliminarily compare the component differences between Nelumbinis Semen and Nelumbinis Plumula. Alkaloids were extracted from them by both using reflux extraction, and their contents were measured by UV and HPLC methods. The CCK-8 method was used to assess the in vitro inhibitory effects of the alkaloids on the HepG2 cells, and to verify pharmacological differences. Results Simultaneous thermal analysis revealed distinct peak shapes, positions, and sizes in the thermal analysis curves of Nelumbinis Semen and Nelumbinis Plumula at respective temperature stages. The contents of total alkaloids showed as follows: the total alkaloids in Nelumbinis Plumula > total extract of Nelumbinis Plumula > the total alkaloids in Nelumbinis Semen. The total alkaloids in Nelumbinis Plumula effectively inhibited HepG2 cell proliferation, while the total alkaloids in Nelumbinis Semen showed no impact. Conclusion Differences in the composition and content of alkaloids may be key factors underlying the biological activities differences between Nelumbinis Semen and Nelumbinis Plumula. This study provided a basis for exploring the material foundation of the differential efficacy and properties of Nelumbinis Semen and Nelumbinis Plumula, which could support their rational clinical application.

Objective To explore the drug selection, usage, dosage and effect of clinical pharmacists in the treatment of secondary Candida bloodstream infection in patients with digestive tract perforation, and provide reference for rational clinical use of such anti-infection therapy. Methods During the treatment of Candida infection, anti-infection specialist clinical pharmacists suggested replacing fluconazole for anti-infection treatment, and adjusted the usage and dosage of caspofungin to ensure the application of full treatment course. Results The patient’s Candida bloodstream infection was effectively controlled. Conclusion Echininocandins such as caspofungin are the first choice for Candida infection. The maintenance dose should be reduced to 35 mg qd in patient with moderate liver function injury, and the anti-infection treatment should be done at least 14 days after the blood culture being negative. Clinical pharmacists participate in clinical pharmaceutical care practices such as clinical ward rounds, and actively assist doctors to develop individualized anti-infection programs, which could improve the level of clinical drug use and the clinical outcome of diseases.
