This study searched the clinical researches on traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for cardiovascular diseases registered in Chinese Clinical Trial Registry and the US Clinical Trial Registry, the cardiovascular disease-related studies funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China, as well as those published in China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang database, VIP.com, China Biology Medicine disc (CBMdisc), Embase, Medline, Cochrane Library, and other databases published cardiovascular disease-related studies from 1 January 2021 to 30 June 2023. In order to analyse and evaluate the research progress of TCM treatment for coronary heart disease, hypertension, heart failure, and arrhythmia, this study aimed at recent research hotspots and research direction. It is found that the research on TCM for cardiovascular diseases was gradually deepening and the high-quality evidence continued to emerge. It is believed that studies related to the prevention and treatment of common cardiovascular diseases by TCM reflected the multi-angle integration of modern technology and pattern differentiation and treatment, closer integration of clinical and basic research, and further optimisation of pattern identification and interventions. On this basis, the research programme and implementation process should be further standardized, and the translation of research results should be emphasized to promote the standardized application and promotion of TCM diagnosis and treatment of cardiovascular diseases.

Objective:Chronic urticaria presents a chronic process of recurrent attacks,and its first-line treatment is second-generation antihistamine with limited treatment options.The efficacy of antihistamine varies among individuals and cannot meet the needs of all patients.This study aims to explore the clinical efficacy and safety of Zhiyang Xiaozhen granules combined with antihistamine in the treatment of chronic urticaria patients. Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of patients with chronic urticaria who visited the Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from April 2020 to March 2021.The patients who received conventional second-generation antihistamine treatment were selected as a control group,while the patients who received combined treatment with Zhiyang Xiaozhen granules on the basis of conventional second-generation antihistamine treatment were selected as an observation group.The differences in the Weekly Urticaria Activity Score(UAS7)and Dermatology Life Quality Index(DLQI)between the 2 groups before and 4 weeks after treatment were compared.The Symptom Score Reduce Index(SSRI)was used to evaluate and compare the efficacy of the 2 treatment regimens. Results:After 4 weeks of treatment,the UAS7 levels in both groups were significantly reduced(P=0.001 and P<0.001,respectively).The effective rates of the control group and the observation group were 61.11%and 59.38%,respectively when converting UAS7 to SSRI for efficacy evaluation,and there was no statistically significant difference in efficacy between the 2 groups(P>0.05);however,when converting DLQI to SSRI for efficacy evaluation,the effective rates of the control group and the observation group were 33.33%and 46.88%,respectively,and the difference in efficacy between the 2 groups was statistically significant(P<0.001).There were 3 patients with adverse drug reactions related to drowsiness in both groups. Conclusion:The combination of Zhiyang Xiaozhen granules and second-generation antihistamine can effectively improve disease activity in patients with chronic urticaria,and the improvement in quality of life is better than that with the second-generation antihistamine alone.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features, characteristics under white-light endoscopy and endoscopic ultrasonography, and treatment strategies of gastritis cystica profunda (GCP) accompanied with or without neoplastic lesions.Methods:Clinical data of 35 patients, who were pathologically diagnosed as having GCP after endoscopic or surgical resection in Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2015 to February 2021, were retrospectively collected, including 27 patients with neoplastic lesions. The demographic information, clinical manifestations, endoscopic features, treatment methods, and pathological results of GCP were summarized.Results:Thirty-five patients with GCP were 68.26±8.08 years old, and mostly male (80.00%, 28/35). The most common symptom was upper abdominal pain, accounting for 31.43% (11/35), and 25.71% (9/35) had no symptoms. Other symptoms included acid reflux, heartburn, abdominal distension, anemia, and choking sensation after eating. The most common site of GCP was cardia (51.43%, 18/35), and the main endoscopic manifestations of GCP were flat mucosal lesions (68.57%, 24/35), mainly 0-Ⅱa and 0-Ⅱa+Ⅱc type lesions, accounting for 66.67% (16/24). The second common endoscopic manifestation was polypoid eminence (20.00%, 7/35). Endoscopic ultrasonography was performed in 15 patients, with main manifestations of uniform hypoechoic with or without cystic echo (73.33%, 11/15). Among the GCP cases, 33 patients received endoscopic resection, and 2 received surgical treatment. The treatment processes were all successfully completed, and en-bloc resection was accomplished for all lesions receiving endoscopy, with the mean endoscopic operation time of 86.13 min. One patient suffered postoperative delayed bleeding after ESD which was stopped by endoscopic hemostasis. Final pathological results showed that the proportion of GCP complicated with neoplastic lesions was 77.14% (27/35), 68.57% (24/35) with early gastric cancer or precursor. Twenty-three cases achieved R0 resection. One case showed positive basal resection margin and vascular invasion, and recurrence happened in situ at the 5th month of follow-up, surgical resection was then performed. The endoscopic complete resection rate was 95.83% (23/24).Conclusion:GCP usually occurs in middle-aged and elderly male, often located in cardia, manifested mainly as flat mucosal lesions and polypoid changes. Endoscopic ultrasonography shows a high diagnostic value for GCP, and endoscopic treatment is safe and effective minimally invasive treatment for GCP.

Objective:
To explore the relative risks of rotavirus diarrhea after exposure to different levels of atmospheric pressure in children in Guangzhou City, so as to provide reference for improving public awareness of high atmospheric pressure exposure.
Methods:
The study used the China Notifiable Communicable Diseases Network System and China Meteorological Science Data Sharing Service Network to collect meteorological data and data relating to daily cases of rotavirus diarrhea in children at Guangzhou Women and Children s Medical Center from 2012 to 2020. The association between rotavirus diarrhea and atmospheric pressure was analyzed using distributed lag non linear models (DLNM). The relative risks of different sex and age sub groups exposed to different atmospheric pressures were also evaluated.
Results:
A total of 18 587 cases of rotavirus diarrhea were reported from 2012 to 2020, among which 11 662 cases (62.7%) were boys, and 12 582 cases (67.7%) were children aged 6 to 24 months old, which represented the highest proportion. The results of the DLNM showed that the relative risk of rotavirus diarrhea was the highest on the day of exposure to extreme high atmospheric pressure ( RR =1.50, 95% CI =1.24-1.82, P <0.05) and the effect could last for 28 days. Risk of rotavirus diarrhea was low for exposure to low pressure within 2 weeks ( P <0.05). During extremely high atmospheric pressure weather, RR was higher in girls ( RR =3.31, 95% CI =1.46-7.49, P <0.05) than that in boys ( RR =1.98, 95% CI =0.96-4.07, P >0.05). Among different age sub groups, RR was the highest in children aged 24 to 60 months after exposure to the highest level of atmospheric pressure exposure ( RR =3.36, 95% CI =1.27-8.89, P <0.05).
Conclusion
In Guangzhou, exposure to high pressure increases the risk of rotavirus diarrhea in children. In the future, public awareness should be raised regarding the risk after exposure to high atmospheric pressure.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of endoscopy for early cancer of duodenal papilla.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on data collected from 23 consecutive patients with early cancer of duodenal papilla, who underwent endoscopic treatment from January 2015 to January 2021 in Beijing Friendship Hospital. Baseline data, endoscopic and pathological data, occurrence and outcome of complications were studied.Results:Twenty-three patients successfully received endoscopic treatment. The maximal diameter of lesions evaluated under endoscopy was 1.90±0.83 cm. Among the 23 cases, 20 underwent endoscopic mucosal resection and 3 underwent endoscopic piecemeal mucosal resection. Delayed bleeding occurred in 5 cases (21.7%), 3 patients (13.0%) developed postoperative hyperamylasemia, 6 patients (26.1%) developed mild acute pancreatitis, and 1 patient (4.3%) had pancreatic duct stent displacement after the operation, which improved after medical or endoscopic treatment. No perforation occurred during the perioperative period. In terms of final pathology, the en bloc resection rate was 82.6% (19/23), and the complete resection rate was 78.3% (18/23). Preoperative endoscopic ultrasonography showed that 19 lesions were confined to the mucosal layer, which were all demonstrated by postoperative pathology. Four other cases were suspected to be involved in the submucosa or the end of the pancreaticobiliary duct under endoscopic ultrasonography, two of which were confined to the mucosal layer, and the other 2 cases involved the submucosal layer, so additional surgery was performed. A total of 18 patients were followed up, among whom 14 achieved complete resection of postoperative pathology, and 2 patients (14.3%, 2/14) were found to have recurrence at 12 and 51 months respectively after the treatment and did not relapse after surgical treatment and endoscopic treatment respectively. Among 4 other patients of follow-up whose pathology did not achieve complete resection, 1 had no recurrence, and the other 3 received additional surgical treatment without recurrence.Conclusion:Endoscopic treatment for early cancer of duodenal papilla is safe and effective. It is necessary to improve preoperative evaluation, stay alert to perioperative complications, and pay attention to regular postoperative endoscopic follow-up.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of endoscopic treatment for early nonampullary duodenal cancer.Methods:Data of patients with early nonampullary duodenal cancer, who underwent endoscopic treatment from January 2015 to January 2021 at Beijing Friendship Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Baseline data, endoscopic treatment methods, wound closure, pathology, the occurrence and outcome of complications of patients were studied.Results:A total of 47 patients who successfully went through endoscopic treatment were enrolled. Seventeen cases received endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR), 5 cases received endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), and 7 cases received ESD+EMR (hybrid ESD). Six cases were converted to hybrid ESD due to difficulty in ESD. Four cases received full-thickness resection with over-the-scope clip system (OTSC), and 8 cases received endoscopic piecemeal mucosal resection (EPMR). Among the 47 cases of early cancer, the en bloc resection rate was 83.0% (39/47), and the complete resection rate was 85.1% (40/47). Four patients (8.5%) had perforation which occurred at the duodenal descending part during the perioperative period, among whom, 2 patients (4.3%) recovered after endoscopic treatment, 2 others (4.3%) recovered after surgical intervention. There were no complications such as postoperative bleeding or infection during the perioperative period.Conclusion:Endoscopic treatment for early nonampullary duodenal cancer is safe and effective. A specific treatment plan can be selected according to the location, size and specific conditions of the lesion. For the operation of the descending part, it is necessary to be more vigilant to against the occurrence of perforation complications.

Objective:To analyze the adverse reactions of patients with multidrug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis treated with linezolid, and to provide reference for clinical rational use of drugs.Methods:A total of 189 patients with multidrug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis who were admitted to Hunan Chest Hospital between June 2019 and June 2020 were retrospectively included, and were divided into the linezolid group and the control group. The control group was given a standardized anti-tuberculosis treatment without linezolid, and the linezolid group was given linezolid in addition to standardized regimens. The occurrences of hematological toxicity, peripheral neuritis, optic neuritis and other adverse reactions in the two groups after anti-tuberculosis treatment were recorded. The risk factors for adverse reactions of linezolid were analyzed. Statistical analysis was performed using independent samples t test and chi-square test, and logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for adverse reactions of linezolid. Results:A total of 189 patients with MDR-TB were included in this study, including 108 in the linezolid group and 81 in the control group. There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics between the linezolid and control groups. The frequencies of leukopenia, anemia, thrombocytopenia, peripheral neuritis and optic neuritis in the linezolid group were 20.4%(22/108), 47.2%(51/108), 21.3%(23/108), 20.4%(22/108) and 13.9%(15/108), respectively, which were all significantly higher than those in the control group (8.6%(7/81), 27.2%(22/81), 9.9%(8/81), 1.2%(1/81) and 4.9%(4/81), respectively), and the differences were all statistically significant ( χ2=4.90, 7.86, 4.40, 15.86 and 4.10, respectively, all P<0.050). Patients older than 45 years of age was independent risk factor for leukopenia (odds ratio ( OR)=3.08, 95% confidence interval ( CI) 1.03 to 9.25, P<0.050) and thrombocytopenia ( OR=2.41, 95% CI 1.09 to 5.35, P<0.050) after linezolid administration. The higher value of white blood cell at baseline ( OR=0.48, 95% CI 0.30 to 0.76, P=0.002) was an independent protective factor for leukopenia associated with linezolid. Conclusions:Pancytopenia, peripheral neuritis and optic neuritis are prone to appear when linezolid is used to treat patients with multidrug-resistant pulmonary tuberculosis. In clinical practice, closely monitoring the adverse reactions during the use of linezolid for anti-tuberculosis treatment is needed.
