Standardized reporting is a crucial factor affecting the use of patient guidelines （PGs）， particularly in the reporting and presentation of recommendations. This paper introduced the current status of PG reporting， including the research on PG content and presentation formats， and provided comprehensive recommendations for PG reporting from aspects such as overall framework， recommendations， presentation format， and readability. First， the presentation of PG recommendations should include clearly defined clinical questions， recommendations and their rationale， and guidance on how patients should implement the interventions； for specific content in the PG， such as level of evidence， level of recommendation， it is recommended to explain in text the reasons for giving different levels of recommendation， i.e.， to present the logic behind giving the level of recommendation to the patient； additional information needed in the recommendation framework should be supplemented by tracing references or authoritative textbooks and literature that support the recommendations. Subsequently， the PG text should be written based on the Reporting Checklist for Public Versions of Guidelines （RIGHT-PVG） reporting framework. Finally， to enhance readability and comprehension， it is recommended to refer to the Patient Education Materials Assessment Tool （PEMAT） for translating PG content. To enhance the readability of PGs， it is suggested to present the PG content in a persona-lized and layered manner.

Since the concept of patient versions of guidelines （PVGs） was introduced into China， several PVGs have been published in China， but we found that there is a big difference between the concept of PVG at home and abroad， and the reason for this difference has not been reasonably explained， which has led to ambiguity and even misapplication of the PVG concept by guideline developers. By analyzing the background and purpose of PVGs， and the understanding of the PVG concept by domestic scholars， we proposed the term patient guidelines （PGs）. This refers to guidelines developed under the principles of evidence-based medicine， centered on health issues that concern patients， and based on the best available evidence， intended for patient use. Except for the general attribute of providing information or education， which is typical of common health education materials， PGs also provide recommendations and assist in decision-making， so PGs include both the patient versions of guidelines （PVG） as defined by the Guidelines International Network （GIN） and "patient-directed guidelines"， i.e. clinical practice guidelines resulting from the adaptation or reformulation of recommendations through clinical practice guidelines.

At present， the process and methodology of patient guidelines （PGs） development varies greatly and lacks systematic and standardised guidance. In addition to the interviews with PG developers， we have sorted out the relevant methodology for the adaptation and development of existing clinical practice guideline recommendations and facilitated expert deliberations to achieve a consensus， so as to finally put forward a proposal for guidance on the process and methodology for the development of PGs. The development of PGs can be divided into the preparation stage， the construction stage， and the completion stage in general， but the specific steps vary according to the different modes of development of PGs. The development process of Model 1 is basically the same as the patient version of the guideline development process provided by the International Guidelines Network， i.e.， team formation， screening of recommendations， guideline drafing， user testing and feedback， approval and dissemination. The developer should also first determine the need for and scope of translating the clinical practice guideline into a patient version during the preparation phase. Model 2 adds user experience and feedback to the conventional clinical practice guideline development process （forming a team， determining the scope of the PG， searching， evaluating and integrating evidence， forming recommendations， writing the guideline， and expert review）. Based on the different models， we sort out the process and methods of PG development and introduce the specific methods of PG development， including how to identify the clinical problem and how to form recommendations based on the existing clinical practice guidelines， with a view to providing reference for guideline developers and related researchers.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the effect of umbilical therapy in adult ulcerative colitis.Methods:The clinical randomized controlled trials (RCT) related to the effect of umbilical therapy in ulcerative colitis in the Chinese and English databases were systematically searched, and their citations were traced. The search time limit was from the establishment of each database to December 30, 2020. Two researchers screened and evaluated the articles according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and extracted article information and data. RevMan5.3 was used for meta-analysis.Results:A total of 13 Chinese articles were included, with 898 patients. The results of meta-analysis showed that there was no statistically significant difference in the general symptom relief rate [ RR=0.70, 95% CI (0.12, 4.19), P=0.70]and effective rate [ RR=0.93, 95% CI (0.54, 1.59), P=0.86]between conventional therapy and umbilical therapy alone. Umbilical therapy combined with conventional therapy can improve the effective rate of treatment [ RR=1.26, 95% CI (1.18, 1.35), P<0.000 01], general symptom relief rate [ RR=1.94, 95% CI (1.44, 2.61), P<0.000 1], abdominal pain relief rate [ RR=1.90, 95% CI (1.42, 2.54), P<0.000 1], diarrhea relief rate [ RR=1.32, 95% CI (1.07, 1.64), P=0.01], remission rate of pus and blood stool [ RR=1.22, 95% CI (1.03, 1.44), P=0.02]and reduced disease activity [ MD=-1.79, 95% CI (-3.37, -0.21), P=0.03]. In terms of adverse reactions, the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant [ RR=0.33, 95% CI (0.08, 0.80), P=0.13]. Conclusions:The efficacy of umbilical therapy alone is equivalent to that of conventional therapy, but umbilical therapy combined with conventional therapy is more effective in improving the treatment effective rate, general symptom relief rate and clinical symptoms. Due to the limitation of the number and quality of the included studies, long-term follow-up, large sample and rigorous RCT studies are needed to prove it.

Objective: To determine the impact and mechanism of HIV derived microRNA99 (miRNA99) on macrophages pyroptosis. Methods: THP-1 cells were stimulated by phorbol ester (PMA) and then were cultured and differentiated into sidewall attached macrophages; the morphology and phenotype of CD11b were measured by microscopy and flow cytometry. TLR8 RNAi plasmid was transfected to macrophages and were detected by confocal fluorescence microscopy. The levels of IL-18 and IL-1β released by macrophages were measured by ELISA. Western blot(WB) was employed to examine TLR8 and cleaved caspase-1 protein expression in macrophages. Results: THP-1 cells that were challenged with PMA (100 ng/ml) for 24 h became smooth and adherent. In addition, the expression of CD11b in macrophages was up to 99%. TLR8 protein expression in macrophages transfected with TLR8 plasmids was significantly lower than that in macrophages transfected with control plasmids. Levels of IL-18 and IL-1β secreted by macrophages were elevated in LPS+ ATP group, miRNA99 group and control plasmid group, but not in control group and TLR8 RNAi plasmid group. Cleaved caspase-1 protein from macrophages of miRNA99 experimental group/ LPS+ ATP group and control plasmid group was significantly higher than that of control group and TLR8 RNAi plasmid group. Conclusions The present study demonstrates that HIV-derived miRNA99 could induce pyroptosis of macrophages via TLR8-dependent pathway.

Objective To investigate the effect of the optimal prescription of huiru yizeng on rats with hyperplasia of mammary gland and hyperprolactinemia. Methods Fifty-six female Wistar rats were randomly divided into 7 groups (n=8), including normal control group, model control group, sodium chloride group, bromocriptin group, rupi sanjie group, the original prescription group and optimizing prescription group. Rat model of mammary gland hyperplasia with hyperprolactinemia was replicated in 6 groups but not the normal control group. The successfully established experimental rats were given corresponding drugs by intragastric gavage. After 30 days, the levels of the estradiol, progesterone, and prolactin were detected, and the pathomrphology of glandular tissue was observed. Results Prolactin levels of model control group, the original prescription group and optimize prescription group were (69.47 ±6.08), (53.13 ±10.59), and (28.41 ±6.37) pg·mL-1, respectively . Compared with that in the model control group, the contents of prolactin in both the optimal prescription group and the original prescription group were reduced, but the optimal prescription group was better (P<0. 01). In the original prescription group, the lobules of mammary gland showed a few of hyperplasia, the individual alveoli and duct showed a slight hyperplasia, and a small amount of secretions was found in the duct. The degree of the hyperplasia was alleviated in the optimal prescription group similar to that observed in the normal control group, which showed that there was no hyperplasia in the lobules of mammary gland or no secretions in the duct. Conclusion The therapeutic effects of the optimal prescription are much better than the original prescription, which can effectively lower the level of prolactin, adjust the balance among the prolactin , estrogen and progesterone, and alleviate the pathological hyperplasia of mammary glands in the model rats.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of wax therapy for diabetic peripheral neuropathy, in order to provide suggestions for treatment and prevention.Methods Cochrane Library, JBI, PubMed, EMbase, CBM, CNKI, WANFANG DATA, VIP were searched by computer from inception to October, 2016 for randomized control trails in wax therapy for diabetic peripheral neuropathy. Two researchers searched and selected articles independently and the quality was assessed in accordance with Cochrane Manual. The articles were analyzed with Review Manager 5.3, and the evidence quality was assessed with GRADE profiler 3.6.1 software.Results A total of 8 randomized controlled trials were included. The number of literature quality grade A of original research is 3, while the number of literature quality grade B of original research is 4,and the number of literature quality grade C of original research is 1. Meta-analysis showed that the sensory nervus peronaeus conduction velocities improved by wax therapy for diabetic peripheral neuropathy patients,[MD=2.51, 95%CI(1.35,3.66), P<0.01]. By the GRADE system grading, the evidence quality is moderate.Conclusions The effect of wax therapy for diabetic peripheral neuropathy can improve the sensory nurve conduction velocities and speed of blood circle, so as to prevent ulcer of diabetic feet. Therefore, the clinical curative effects of the therapy require large-sample and high quality studies to confirm.
