The historical development of endogenous wind (内风) is traced with time as the thread, based on the progression of factors such as syndromes, causes of disease, and pathogenesis. It is believed that the concept of wind syndrome originated in The Inner Canon of Yellow Emperor (《黄帝内经》), encompassing both exogenous wind (外风) and endogenous wind syndrome. Over time, exogenous wind syndrome gradually evolved into mild syndromes and severe syndromes, while endogenous wind syndrome emerged from severe syndromes of exogenous wind. Endogenous wind syndrome has both syndrome and pathogenic attributes, and its theoretical system has gradually become more refined. Based on the theories of ancient and modern medical practitioners, and combining the holistic perspectives with Xiang (象) thinking, it is proposed that endogenous wind has both physiological and pathological distinctions. The physiological endogenous wind refers to the liver's moderate dispersing and regulating function, which helps to distribute qi (气), blood, and body fluids, while pathological endogenous wind arises from abnormal liver dispersal. Therefore, in clinical practice, different treatment methods, such as tonifying, unblocking, and warming, can be applied according to the differentiation of deficiency and excess in the pathogenesis.

OBJECTIVE To explore the safety, effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a multimodal analgesic regimen in patients who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy under the guidance of enhanced recovery after surgery principles. METHODS Data from weight loss patients who underwent laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy at our hospital were retrospectively collected. The trial group patients received a multimodal analgesic regimen, which included the use of 0.375% ropivacaine for local infiltration of the surgical incision before the end of surgery; intravenous infusion of flurbiprofen axetil 50 mg twice daily; intravenous infusion of methylprednisolone 40 mg once daily and oral administration of extended-release hydrocodone hydrochloride tablets 10 mg twice daily after surgery. The control group patients received a conventional analgesic regimen, which included intravenous infusion of flurbiprofen axetil 100 mg twice daily, with a daily dose twice that of the trial group; and intravenous injection of dexamethasone 5 mg once daily. Propensity score matching was used to balance the baseline data between the two groups. Then the pain scores during movement and at rest at 2, 12, 24 and 36 hours postoperatively, as well as the length of postoperative hospital stay, total length of hospital stay, time to first ambulation after surgery, adverse reactions during hospitalization, total drug costs, and costs of antimicrobial drugs during hospitalization were compared between the two groups. RESULTS The trial group had significantly lower pain scores during movement at 2, 24 and 36 hours postoperatively, and at rest at 2, 12 and 24 hours postoperatively compared to the control group (P<0.05). The time to first ambulation after surgery, total length of hospital stay, and length of postoperative hospital stay were significantly shorter in the trial group compared to the control group (P<0.05). The incidence of shoulder and back soreness, and costs of antimicrobial drugs were significantly lower in the trial group compared to the control group (P<0.05). No statistically significant differences were observed in the total incidence of drug-related adverse reactions and total drug costs during hospitalization between the two groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS The multimodal analgesic regimen provides marked pain relief, demonstrates good safety profiles, and has a more economic advantage than the conventional analgesic regimen.
