Based on clinical epidemiological data， it is believed that qi deficiency constitution is closely related to allergic diseases. According to the fundamental principles of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） constitution theory， the intrinsic connection between qi deficiency constitution and allergic diseases is analyzed from the perspectives of inherited endowment， life process， environmental restriction， and the interplay of form and spirit. This paper discusses the key points of regulating qi deficiency constitution to prevent allergic diseases in three stages， prevention before illness， prevention of disease progression， and prevention of recurrence after recovery. It also distinguishes the treatment directions for regulating qi deficiency constitution to treat allergic diseases based on different disease locations such as the lung， spleen， and kidney. This aims to expand new ideas for the research on qi deficiency constitution and allergic diseases as well as the prevention and treatment of allergic diseases.

Objective: To explore the correlation between traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) constitution and depressive symptom among school aged children and adolescents, so as to provide evidences for informing constitution based regulation and prevention of depressive symptom. Methods: From June to December 2024, a total of 4 729 students aged 6-14 were recruited by cluster random sampling from 10 primary schools in Baoding (Hebei Province), Heze and Liaocheng (Shandong Province). General information, TCM constitution and depressive symptom were collected. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) models were used to analyze related factors and threshold effects of depressive symptom. Binary Logistic regression was applied to examine the association between depressive symptom and TCM constitution, with subgroup analyses conducted. Results: The detection rate of depressive symptom among the included children and adolescents was 25.82%. RCS analyses indicated non linear associations between depressive symptom and age (inflection point at 10 years old), bedtime (inflection point at 22:00), and wake up time (inflection point at 6:30 ) (all P non linearity <0.01). Linear associations were observed with body mass index (BMI) and sleep duration (all P non linearity > 0.05 ). After adjusting for covariates such as age, BMI and sleep status, binary Logistic regression analyses showed that Yin deficient constitution ( OR =1.26, 95% CI =1.09-1.45) and Phlegm-dampness constitution ( OR =1.42, 95% CI =1.11-1.82) were significantly associated with depressive symptom among children and adolescents (all P <0.05). Conclusions Depressive symptom among school aged children and adolescents is primarily associated with Yin deficiency and Phlegm dampness constitutions in TCM constitution. Active attention should be paid to susceptible TCM constitution among children and adolescents. Targeted health guidance and interventions should be implemented to improve TCM constitution health status for preventing the occurrence of depressive symptom.

ObjectiveTo explore the correlation between blood stasis constitution （BSC） and diseases based on constitution literature involving “constitution-diseases correlation”. MethodsA comprehensive search was conducted on six Chinese and English electronic databases including CNKI， Wanfang， VIP， SinoMed， PubMed and Embase to find all clinical researches on the correlation between constitution and diseases using the Classification and Identification of Chinese Medicine Constitution standard from April 1st， 2009 to December 31st， 2022， and the participants of the research were BSC related. By analyzing the characteristics of the literature， such as authors， publication institutes， participants， and results， the disease with the highest proportion of BSC distribution or BSC as their risk factors or protective factors were summarized to explore the correlation between BSC and diseases. ResultsTotally 135 clinical studies on diseases highly related to BSC were included， with a total sample size of 71 172 cases.There were 27 keywords in the articles appeared more than 3 times， including the elderly， lumbar disc herniation， coronary heart disease， cardiovascular disease， and endometriosis. In the author's clustering， included studis were mainly from Shenzhen Hospital of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine， Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine， and Wenzhou Central Hospital. In terms of blood stasis related diseases， 81 studies showed that BSC was the most common type of constitution in the study population， involving 48 disease or morbid states. The diseases and median proportions of BSC with reported literature ≥3 included coronary heart disease （28.8%）， endometriosis （31.3%）， neurocognitive impairment （26.4%）， lumbar disc herniation （26.0%）， ischemic stroke （25.0%）， adenomyosis （34.7%）， and endometrial polyps （25.0%）. Fifty-eight studies found that BSC was a risk factor for disease occurrence，and these diseases reported more than 3 times included hypertension （median OR = 2.956）， type 2 diabetes （median OR = 3.436），osteoporosis （median OR = 5.171）， sudden deafness （median OR = 3.827） and endometriosis （median OR = 5.412）. One study indicated BSC as the protective factor of lateral growth tumor of large intestine （median OR = 0.161）. ConclusionBSC is closely related to circulatory system diseases， urogenital system diseases， and musculoskeletal system diseases.

PCOS is a highly prevalent disease in modern women of gestational age, characterized by infertility. Prevention before onset has been a key focus of national efforts in recent years. This article explored the prevention and treatment plan for polycystic ovary syndrome based on the three-level prevention theory of Academician Wang Qi. Primary prevention: control pathogenic risk factors; secondary prevention: precise screening and life intervention to prevent the formation of dangerous constitution; third level prevention: differentiation of body-differentiation of disease-differentiation of syndrome to achieve the goal of three-level prevention. In the prevention and treatment of PCOS, pre-disease prevention, post disease prevention and cure are tried to achieve, which could provide a truly effective, easy to operate, and applicable three-level prevention and treatment plan for a large population in clinical response to PCOS.

Senile dementia is a disease that gradually develops with age. At present, the etiology, pathogenesis and treatment of senile dementia cannot be completely determined clinically. Therefore, it is extremely necessary to prevent and treat senile dementia from prevention and disease management. For the non-ill people, this article analyzed the susceptible groups of senile dementia from the perspective of TCM constitution, combined with the current prevention plan of Alzheimer's disease, from the aspects of examination, nutritional supplementation, adjustment of work and rest, exercise, etc., early physical fitness prevention targeting populations at different stages was conducted; the early onset of senile dementia is not obvious, and the early prevention of senile dementia can be carried out from various aspects in combination with constitution identification and inspection of senile dementia; for the exact sick population, disease management guidance can be added on the basis of the above aspects to provide definite and feasible recommendations for disease prevention and management of the elderly.

Objective:To investigate the clinical application value of enhanced recovery after surgery using the LEER model in patients subjected to laparoscopic cholecystectomy in basic hospitals of Yi nationality area.Methods:Twenty-six patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy based on the concept of enhancing recovery after surgery using the LEER model in People's Hospital of Jinkouhe District of Leshan from January to October 2021 were included in the observation group. An additional 20 patients who concurrently underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy and conventional intervention were included in the control group. Clinical efficacy, postoperative complications and postoperative pain were compared between the two groups.Results:Postoperative fasting time, length of hospital stay, and total hospital days in the observation group were 6 (6, 6) hours, 2 (2, 3) days and 4 (4, 6) days respectively, which were significantly shorter than 24 (24, 36) hours, 5 (5, 6) days, 7 (7, 9) days in the control group ( H = 351.00, 407.50, 458.00, all P < 0.05). Hospitalization cost in the observation group was 5 454.58 (5 014.11, 6 016.58) yuan, which was significantly lower than 6 611.91 (6 192.68, 7 841.73) yuan in the control group ( H = 420.00, P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in operative time and postoperative complications between the two groups (both P > 0.05). At postoperative 6 hours, Visual Analogue Scale score in the observation group was 3 (3, 4) points, and patients with mild pain accounted for 73.07% (19/26). At postoperative 24 hours, Visual Analogue Scale score in the observation group was 2 (2, 3) points, and patients with mild pain accounted for 92.31% (24/26). Overall pain was well controlled after surgery. Patient satisfaction rate in the observation was 96.15% (25/26). All patients recovered and were discharged. Conclusion:Application of enhanced recovery after surgery using the LEER model in patients subjected to laparoscopic cholecystectomy in basic hospitals of Yi nationality area can promote postoperative recovery, contribute to changing the theory of diagnosis and treatment, and improve overall medical quality. The enhanced recovery after surgery protocol using the LEER model has a good application value.

Objective:This study aimed to revise the Constitution in Chinese Medicine Questionnaire(Elderly Edi-tion)(CCMQ-EE),as well as evaluate its reliability and validity.The objective was to provide a more accurate Chinese medicine constitution identification tool for geriatric health management and help further research on the relationship between geriatric diseases and constitution type,etc.Methods:The Delphi method and a cross-sectional survey of the elderly population were used.From April to October 2021,experts in different fields were invited to participate in the questionnaire,and items were revised through the experts'ratings and feedback.From December 2021 to February 2022,the revised CCMQ-EE was validated in the elderly population.Results:The coefficients of variation of rationality and importance scores decreased to less than 0.25 in the third round of Delphi.The Kendall coordination coefficients of rationality and importance in the third round were 0.15 and 0.17(P=.031 and P=.007,respectively).The revised CCMQ-EE was established with 34 items.The factor loadings of subscales were between 0.39 and 0.92,and the fitting effects of other subscales were acceptable,except for the inherited special constitution.The Cronbach alpha and test-retest reliability coefficients of each subscale ranged from 0.65 to 0.83,and 0.66 to 0.96,respectively.The composite reliability and average variance extraction were between 0.66 and 0.84,and between 0.32 and 0.57,respectively.The reliability and validity of the revised CCMQ-EE were acceptable or satisfactory.Conclusion:The revised CCMQ-EE was developed through a three-round Delphi process and internal team discussion.After the verification in the elderly in Beijing area,its measurement performance was good.The updated questionnaire can probably replace the initial version to better promote health management and help healthy aging by identifying the constitution type of the elderly.

Objective To observe the effect of recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (rhGM-CSF) on the prevention and treatment of oral mucositis induced by concurrent chemoradiotherapy in patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Methods A total of 64 patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma from April 2015 to April 2017 in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University were enrolled. The patients were randomly divided into the observation group (32 cases) and the control group (32 cases) according to the random number table method. Both groups were treated with intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT) and synchronized with TP regimen (docetaxel + cisplatin) chemotherapy for 2 cycles. Both groups were treated with mouthwash at the beginning of radiotherapy to prevent oral mucositis. The observation group was given rhGM-CSF mouthwash, and the control group was given compound borax mouthwash. The oral mucositis and the oral pain during the treatment and the end of the treatment were evaluated by using American Radiation Oncology Group (RTOG) grading criteria and visual analogue scoring method(VAS) grading criteria. The time of onset of oral mucositis and the total time of radiotherapy in both groups was also recorded. Results All the patients were treated with concurrent chemoradiotherapy. The total radiotherapy time in the observation group was less than that in the control group [(46.4±1.6) vs. (48.2±3.2) d, t= -2.720, P= 0.009]. The clinical total effective rate was 93.8 %(30/32) in the observation group and 96.9 %(31/32) in the control group respectively (χ2= 0.35, P =0.554).The occurrence of grade 1,2 and 3 oral mucositis in the observation group was(20.9±2.5), (29.3±2.4), and (34.5±1.8) d respectively, which was latter than that in the control group [(16.3 ±2.0), (24.2 ±2.2) and (31.0 ±2.2) d] respectively (t= 8.125, P= 0.000; t= 8.840, P= 0.000; t= 6.944, P= 0.001). During concurrent chemoradiotherapy,the incidence of grade 3 oral mucositis in the observation group was lower than that in the control group[31.2 %(10/32)vs.56.2 %(18/32);Z=-2.197,P=0.028].At the end of concurrent chemoradiotherapy, the total incidence of grade 2 and grade 3 oral mucositis in the observation group was lower than that in the control group [53.1 % (17/32) vs. 81.2 % (26/32); Z= -2.708, P= 0.007]. The incidence of moderate and severe oral pain caused by oral mucositis in the observation group was lower than that in the control group[46.9 %(15/32)and 6.2 %(2/32)vs.59.4 %(19/32)and 15.6 %(5/32),respectively;Z= -2.009, P= 0.045]. Conclusion rhGM-CSF mouthwash can delay the occurrence of oral mucositis, reduce the incidence of oral mucositis and oral pain to effectively prevent and treat oral mucositis induced by concurrent chemoradiotherapy in patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma, which is worthy of clinical application.

Objective To improve the recognition of synovitis-acne-pustulosis-hyperostosis-osteitis (SAPHO) syndrome by investigating its clinical features and imaging manifestations. Methods The data of 14 patients with SAPHO syndrome (8 males, 6 females, age range: 18-61 years) between January 2014 and January 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical features, the results of laboratory (erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C reaction protein (CRP), complement component 3 (C3) and component 4 (C4), human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-B27) tests, pathology and imaging examinations (CT and whole-body bone im-aging) were collected. Results SAPHO syndrome was mainly characterized by skin damage and bone joint damage. The main manifestations of skin lesions were pustules, desquamation and erythema. Those of bone and joint injury were sternocostoclavicular hyperostosis, stiff spinal hyperostosis, peripheral arthritis, and sacroiliitis. There were 5 with fasting ESR, 5 with abnormal CRP, 3 with abnormal C3, and 1 with abnormal C4 among 14 patients. HLA-B27 was negative in all patients. Whole-body bone imaging revealed that 14 pa-tients had abnormal radioactivity, mainly involving the anterior chest wall, spine, pelvis and long bone. Chest CT manifestations of the patients were the destruction of joint bone, the fusion of the hypertrophy and the narrowing of the joint space. Symmetric lesions accounted for the majority. Pathology examination showed non-specific inflammation in 9 patients. Conclusions SAPHO syndrome is a disease characterized by skin, bone and joint abnormalities. Whole-body bone imaging can find systemic bone damage in early stage, and CT can detect bone changes and soft tissue lesions.
