Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), as a treasure of the Chinese nation, plays a significant role in maintaining public health. In 2019, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council proposed for the first time the establishment of a TCM registration and evaluation evidence system that integrates TCM theory, "personal experience" and clinical trials (referred to as the "Three-in-One" System) to promote the inheritance and innovation of TCM. Subsequently, the National Medical Products Administration issued several guiding principles to advance the improvement and implementation of this system. Owing to the complexity of its implementation, there are still differing understandings within the TCM industry regarding the positioning of the "Three-in-One" Registration and Evaluation Evidence System, as well as the connotation and value orientation of the "personal experience." To address this, Academician WANG Qi, President of the TCM Association, China International Exchange and Promotion Association for Medical and Healthcare and TCM master, led a group of academicians, TCM masters, TCM pharmacology experts and clinical TCM experts to convene a "Seminar on Promoting the Implementation of the ′Three-in-One′ Registration and Evaluation Evidence System for Chinese Medicinals." Through extensive discussions, an expert consensus was formed, clarifying the different roles of the TCM theory, "personal experience" and clinical trials within the system. It was further emphasized that the "personal experience" is the core of this system, and its data should be derived from clinical practice scenarios. In the future, the improvement of this system will require collaborative efforts across multiple fields to promote the high-quality development of the Chinese medicinal industry.

Objective To evaluate the effect of sodium-dependent glucose transporters 2(SGLT-2)inhibitors on carotid artery elasticity in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 by applying the ultrafast pulse wave velocity(UFPWV).Methods A total of 82 patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinzhou Medical University from January to June 2022 were selected and randomly divided into control group(n=41)and observation group(n=41),and both groups were treated with conventional hypoglycemic therapy,and patients in observation group were combined with the treatment of SGLT-2 inhibitor on the basis of control group,and the patients of both groups were treated for 1 year.Systolic blood pressure(SBP),diastolic blood pressure(DBP),body mass index(BMI),fasting blood glucose(FPG),2-hour postprandial blood glucose(2hPG),glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c),carotid intima-media thickness(CIMT),and UFPWV technique was used to measure the common carotid artery pulse wave velocity-beginning of systole(PWV-BS)and pulse wave velocity-end of systole(PWV-ES).Results ①The comparison between SBP,DBP,BMI,FPG,2h PG,HbA1c,CIMT,PWV-BS,PWV-ES indexes of the two groups of patients before treatment,the difference was not significant(P>0.05);② After receiving treatment,SBP,DBP,BMI,FPG,2hPG,HbA1c,CIMT,PWV-BS,PWV-ES of patients in observation group were lower than those of control group before treatment,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05);③ FPG,2hPG,HbA1c,SBP,DBP,BMI,CIMT,PWV-BS,PWV-ES indexes of observation group were lower than those of control group after treatment,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion UFPWV can effectively assess the value of SGLT-2 inhibitors in improving carotid artery elasticity in patients with diabetes mellitus type 2 with high accuracy and simplicity.

Disease-modifying therapy (DMT), the dominating treatment for the remission stage of multiple sclerosis (MS), has reshaped the treatment situation of MS in China due to the increasing number of DMT drugs introduced since 2018. However, the current treatment status is still not satisfied because of the long-time lack of DMT drugs in the past and the latest advances in the diagnosis and treatment of MS. The treatment strategies and goals of MS advanced continuously attributed to the more clarified pathophysiology, more optional DMT drugs and more surveillance methods in disease progression and therapeutic efficacy combined with MRI and biomarkers,etc. Personalized treatment and follow-up protocol established on evidence based prognostication, drug and patient-related factors, probably will be one of the most optimal treatment algorithm in the future. Here is a comprehensive review on how to perform this personalized treatment based on national conditions.

[Abstract] Objective To explore the body index and typing characteristics of Xibe nationality. Methods According to Anthropomatric Methods, height, chest circumference, sitting height, shoulder width, pelvic width and body mass morphological indexes were collected from 588 Xibe people in Yili area and 420 Xibe people over 18 years old in Shenyang area. After data collation, body index and typing were calculated and analyzed statistically. Results Except for Xibe male stature-shoulder breadth index and Caup’ s index in Yili area and female stature-shoulder breadth index in Shenyang area, there were differences among age groups in other indexes (P < 0. 05). Except for male stature-chest circumference index, stature-crista iliaca index, female stature-chest circumference index, stature-sitting height index, Manouvrier’s skelic index, there were differences among regions (P<0. 05). The adult body shape of Xibe nationality was mainly of wide chest, wide shoulder, long trunk, wide pelvis, medium leg and sub-long leg (male), sub-short leg and medium leg (female), and overweight. Conclusion There are regional and age differences in the body index and typing of Xibe adults. Compared with other ethnic minorities, Xibe nationality’s stature-chest circumference index, stature-shoulder breadth index, stature-crista iliaca index, Caup’s index are at a higher level. The proportion of legs and body of Xibe nationality is in the middle level, while the proportion of trunk is slightly shorter for men and slightly longer for women.

Objective To understand the prevalence of sarcopenia,sarcopenic obesity and osteoporosis, and to analyze the influence of sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity on osteoporosis. Methods After all the people signed the informed research agreement, the experimental subjects were selected from Han people over 20 years old in Liaoning region, and a total of 1266 cases were included. The distribution of muscle mass, fat mass and bone mineral density in different parts of adults were measured by bioelectrical impedance analyzer (BIA) and bone densitometer, and the correlation between sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity and osteoporosis in adults was studied. Results With the increase of age, the muscle mass of limbs, trunk, total muscle mass and body weight of the Han adults in Liaoning showed a trend of increasing at first and then decreasing. There was no significant difference in the prevalence of sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity between men and women, but there was a significant difference in the prevalence of osteoporosis between men and women. The prevalence of all three groups reached the peak in the age group above 60, and the difference was statistically significant.The risk factor for osteoporosis was sarcopenia and sarcopenic obesity. Conclusion Among adults of Han nationality in Liaoning, the prevalence of sarcopenic obesity,sarcopenia and osteoporosis is significantly different in age. Bone condition is affected by fat mass and muscle mass.

Objective:To investigate the distribution of iron deposition in the substantia nigral (SN) subregions on quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) and the change of swallow tail sign (STS) in patients with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS) of different disease stages.Methods:The clinical and imaging data of 53 patients with RRMS (case group) diagnosed at the First Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from November 2019 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The case group was divided into 0-5 years subgroup, 6-10 years subgroup, and >10 years subgroup according to the disease duration; another 37 age-and gender-matched healthy volunteers were recruited as the control group during the same period. All subjects underwent MRI and QSM reconstruction. First, the SN was divided into four subregions: rostral anterior-SN (aSNr), rostral posterior-SN (pSNr), caudal anterior-SN (aSNc), and caudal posterior-SN (pSNc) on the QSM, and the quantitative susceptibility value (QSV) of each subregion was measured, and then the STS of the SN was observed and scored on the susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) generated by post-processing. ANOVA was used to compare the differences in the QSV of each subregion of SN among the groups, and the probability of abnormal STS was compared using the χ 2 test. Spearman′s test was used to analyze the correlation between the QSV of each subregion of SN and the STS score. Results:The differences in QSV of aSNr, pSNr, aSNc, and pSNc were statistically significant among the 0-5 years subgroup, 6-10 years subgroup,>10 years subgroup of RRMS patients and the control group ( P<0.05). The QSV of aSNr, pSNr, and aSNc in 0-5 years subgroup was higher than those in the control group ( P was 0.039, 0.008, 0.039, respectively). The QSV of aSNr, aSNc, and pSNc in the 6-10 years subgroup were higher than those in the 0-5 years subgroup ( P was <0.001, 0.020, 0.015, respectively). The QSV of the aSNc, pSNc in >10 years subgroup were lower than those in the 6-10 years subgroup ( P=0.037, 0.006). The QSV of aSNr, pSNr in >10 years subgroup were higher than those in the control group ( P was <0.001, 0.001). There were 7 cases of abnormal STS in the 0-5 years subgroup, 11 cases in the 6-10 years subgroup, 12 cases in >10 years subgroup, and 9 cases in the control subgroup, and there was a statistically significant difference in the probability of abnormal STS among the subgroups of the RRMS patients and the control subgroup (χ 2=16.20, P=0.011). Both the scores of STS in the 6-10 years subgroup and >10 years group were positively correlated with the QSV in pSNc ( r s=0.65, P=0.006; r s=0.48, P=0.045). Conclusions:In RRMS patients, SN iron deposition is concentrated on aSNr, pSNr, and aSNc in the 0-5 years subgroup and on aSNr, aSNc and pSNc in the 6-10 years subgroup. The QSVs of all SN subregions have a downward trend in >10 years subgroup compared with that in the 6-10 years subgroup. Both the QSVs of the pSNc in the 6-10 years group and >10 years group are positively related to STS scores. These help explore the potential progression pattern of SN iron deposition in RRMS patients and the cause of abnormal STS in RRMS patients.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of Sanhuang Tangshenkang on the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway in the bone tissue of diabetic rats. MethodA high-sugar and high-fat diet was administered for 4 weeks， along with intraperitoneal injection of freshly prepared 2% streptozotocin （pH 4.5） at 30 mg·kg^-1 body weight to induce a diabetes model in rats. The rats with diabetes were randomly divided into model group， low- and high-dose Sanhuang Tangshenkang groups （12.8， 38.4 g·kg^-1）， and Gushukang group （1.8 g·kg^-1） according to the blood glucose level. Rats of the same age were fed on a regular diet and assigned to the control group. After 12 weeks of respective treatments with drugs or physiological saline， the fasting blood glucose （FBG） levels of the rats were measured using an automated biochemical analyzer. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to detect fasting serum insulin （FINS）， bone-specific alkaline phosphatase （BALP）， and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase （TRAP） levels. Micro-computed tomography （Micro-CT） was used to scan the femurs of rats to observe bone tissue microstructure and measure bone mineral density （BMD）. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining and safranin O/fast green staining were performed to observe pathological changes in the femoral bone tissue. Immunohistochemistry （IHC） and Western blot were used to detect the expression of Wnt3a， low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 5 （LRP-5）， and β-catenin proteins. ResultCompared with the control group， the model group showed a significant increase in FBG， FINS， and TRAP levels （P<0.01）， a significant decrease in BALP level （P<0.01）， a significant decrease in BMD （P<0.01）， and disorganized， elongated， and sparse bone trabecular structures with fractures and increased lipid droplets. Additionally， the expression of Wnt3a， LRP-5， and β-catenin proteins decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）. Compared with the model group， the low- and high-dose Sanhuang Tangshenkang groups showed a reduction in FBG and an increase in BALP （P<0.05）. The low-dose Sanhuang Tangshenkang group also exhibited a decrease in FINS （P<0.05）. All treatment groups showed a significant decrease in TRAP （P<0.01）， varying degrees of improvement in BMD （P<0.05， P<0.01））， increased and denser bone trabeculae with more regular arrangements and reduced lipid droplets， and improved bone microstructure morphology. The average optical density values of Wnt3a， LRP-5， and β-catenin proteins were significantly increased in all drug-treated groups （P<0.05， P<0.01）， and the expression of Wnt3a， LRP-5， and β-catenin proteins was elevated （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionSanhuang Tangshenkang may regulate the imbalance of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway by increasing the expression of Wnt3a， LRP-5， and β-catenin proteins in bone tissue， which may promote bone formation， reduce bone resorption， and lower blood glucose levels， thereby achieving the effect of preventing and treating diabetic osteoporosis.

Objective To investigate the types of tongue movement in Xinjiang Kazakhs, to explore the relationship between tongue movement types, and to provide inference for genetic of human anthropology. Methods Totally 405 samples (178 males, 227 females) of Kazakh in Tacheng, Xinjiang, were investigated for the types of tongue movement. Chi-square test, u test and cluster analysis were used to explore the characteristics of tongue movement of Kazakhs and the tongue movement of other ethnic groups relation. Generalized multivariate dimension reduction (GMDR) analysis and logistic regression were used to analyze the correlations between tongue movements. Results The frequencies of rolling tongue, folding tongue, twisting tongue, and pointed tongue were 73. 08%, 41. 97%, 18. 02%, and 66. 91% respectively. No gender difference was found in the frequencies of four tongue moving types. Compared with other ethnic groups in our country, the frequency of rolling tongue and pointed tongue was at a moderate level, the frequency of folding tongue was higher, and the frequency of twisting tongue was lower. The cluster analysis result showed that the tongue movement type of Xinjiang Kazak was closest to that of Han nationality in Jinzhou, Liaoning. GMDR result showed that among the four tongue movements, there were interactions between the combinations of rolling tongue and folding tongue, folding tongue and rolling tongue and pointed tongue, twisting tongue and pointed tongue, and rolling tongue and folding tongue,and pointed tongue and folding tongue. Logistic regression result showed that there were correlations between rolling tongue and folding tongue, pointed tongue and folding tongue, folding tongue and pointed tongue and rolling tongue. Conclusion Compared with the tongue movements of the domestic ethnic groups, the four types of tongue movements of the Kazakhs in Xinjiang are stronger in folding tongue movement, weaker in tongue turning movement, and average in rolling tongue and pointed tongue movement. There is a relationship between rolling tongue and folding tongue, pointed tongue and folding tongue, and folding tongue are related to pointed tongue and rolling tongue.
