		                        			From the perspective of state differentiation and treatment, it is believed that the pathogenesis of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is that evil poisons injured the lungs, and the lung qi suddenly collapsed, then blocked and exhausted, and the qi failure to control blood and liquid, then the fluids overflow outside the vessels, and damp phlegm, stasis, and toxins became knotted up in the body, which ultimately leads to qi dysfunction, and a series of symptom arise, so qi impairment is the principal mechanism of ARDS. A combination of Chinese and Western medicine was proposed to treat ARDS by combining tangible qi and intangible qi, using Chinese herbal medicine to boost qi and relieve collapse, percolate and drain dampness with bland medicinals, resolve toxins and dissolve stasis, and regulate qi, and combining with Western medicine to assist qi circulation to improve qi's consolidation, propulsion, and transformation, so as to make the evil qi go away, the positive qi restored, the viscera qi circulated, qi, blood, yin, and yang connected, and the activities of life maintained, and thus to achieve the goal of treating ARDS by integrated Chinese medicine and Western medicine.

		                        			 CD200 and its receptor CD200R constitute an endogenous inhibitory signal. The binding of CD200 and CD200R can regulate the immune response to pathogenic stimuli, which has received much attention in recent years. It has been found that CD200-CD200R is involved in the regulation of many kinds of pathological inflammation, including autoimmune diseases, cardiac cerebrovascular disease, infection and tumor. This paper reviews the protein structure, distribution, expression, biological function of CD200-CD200R and the correlation with diseases, and analyses the current status and development ideas of CD200-CD200R as drug targets. It aims to provide theoretical support for new drug research and development based on this target.

		                        			Objective To investigate the risk factors for the occurrence of bronchiolitis obliterans (BO) in children with refractory Mycoplasma pneumoniae pneumonia (RMPP) and their predictive value of the factors. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for the medical records of 156 children with RMPP who were admitted to the hospital from May 2020 to March 2024. According to the diagnostic criteria for BO,they were divided into a BO group (n=76) and a non-BO group (n=80). A logistic regression analysis was used to investigate risk factors for the occurrence of BO,and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to assess the value of the model established based on the risk factors in predicting BO. Results Compared with the non-BO group,the BO group had a significantly longer duration of fever,a significantly higher leukocyte count,and a significantly lower albumin level (P<0.05). Compared with the non-BO group,the BO group had a significantly lower proportion of children with initiation of macrolide antibiotic therapy within 5 days,initiation of glucocorticoid therapy within 2 weeks,or initiation of bronchoscopic therapy within<2 weeks (P<0.05). The ROC curve analysis showed that the logistic regression model established based on the above six indicators had an area under the curve of 0.901 (95%CI:0.849-0.953,P<0.001) in predicting the occurrence of BO,with a sensitivity of 0.893 and a specificity of 0.827 at the optimal cut-off value of 0.341. Conclusions The logistic regression model established based on duration of fever,leukocyte count,albumin,initiation of macrolide antibiotic therapy within 5 days,initiation of glucocorticoid therapy within 2 weeks,and initiation of bronchoscopic therapy within 2 weeks has relatively high sensitivity and specificity in predicting the occurrence of BO in children with RMPP.

		                        			ObjectiveTo assess the coverage and effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccines in the elderly. MethodsThis study was conducted in Changning District of Shanghai, targeting people aged 60 years and above. Vaccination data between 21 December 2020 and 28 February 2022 was retrieved from the Shanghai Collective Immunization System. Information on confirmed cases of COVID-19 from March 2022 through May 2022 was collected from the National Notifiable Diseases Reporting System. Vaccine effectiveness was calculated using the screening method. ResultsAs of 28 February 2022, 69.89% of people aged ≥60 years had received ≥1-dose vaccine, 63.80% had received full primary vaccination and 31.91% had received a booster dose. Vaccination coverage declined over age, with the lowest coverage in the elderly aged ≥80 years. Moreover, COVID-19 vaccination provided the highest protection against severe/critical illness and death due to the Omicron variants in the elderly aged ≥60 years. Full primary vaccination showed 96.15%(95%CI:84.15‒99.06)of vaccine effectiveness and booster vaccination showed 100% of the effectiveness against severe/critical COVID-19 and death. ConclusionsFull primary and booster vaccination coverage in the elderly is low, especially in those aged 80 and above. Our study finds high protection against COVID-19 associated severe/critical illness and death from both full primary and booster vaccination of inactivated COVID-19 vaccines in the elderly aged ≥60 years.
