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.

Radiotherapy can cause functional and morphological changes in the brain tissues of patients with primary or metastatic malignant brain tumors, leading to radiation-induced brain injury. However, the pathogenesis of radiation-induced brain injury has not yet been unanimously determined, and its research advances and treatment protocols are yet to be elucidated and improved. In this study, we explore the pathogenesis of radiation-induced brain injury from the perspective of vascular injury, inflammatory reactions, neuronal dysfunction, glial cell injury, and gut microbiota and reviewed the advances in research on its treatment and prevention. The purpose is to provide a reference and theoretical basis for the research and clinical diagnosis and treatment of radiation-induced brain injury.

Objective:Age-related cataract is the most common type of adult cataract and a leading cause of blindness.Currently,there are few reports on the establishment of animal models for age-related cataract.During the experimental breeding of Microtus fortis(M.fortis),we first observed that M.fortis aged 12 to 15 months could naturally develop cataracts.This study aims to explore the possibility of developing them as an animal model for age-related cataract via identifing and analyzing spontaneous cataract in M.fortis. Methods:The 12-month-old healthy M.fortis were served as a control group and 12-month-old cataractous M.fortis were served as an experimental group.The lens transparency was observed using the slit-lamp biomicroscope.Hematoxylin and eosin staining was used to detect pathological changes in the lens.Biochemical detection methods were applied to detect blood routine,blood glucose levels,the serum activities of superoxide dismutase(SOD),and glutathione peroxidase(GSH-Px)in both groups.Finally,real-time RT-PCR was used to detect the transcription levels of cataract-related genes in the lens of 2 groups. Results:Compared with the control group,the lens of cataract M.fortis showed severely visible opacity,the structure of lens was destroyed seriously,and some pathological damage,such as swelling,degeneration/necrosis,calcification,hyperplasia,and fiber liquefaction were found in lens epithelial cells(LECs).The fibrous structure was disorganized and irregularly distributed with morgagnian globules(MGs)aggregated in the degenerated lens fibers.There was no statistically significant difference in blood glucose levels between the experimental and control groups(P＞0.05).However,white blood cell(WBC)count(P＜0.05),lymphocyte count(P＜0.01),and lymphocyte ratio(P＜0.05)were significantly decreased,while neutrophil percentage(P＜0.05)and monocyte ratio(P＜0.01)were significantly increased.The serum activities of SOD and GSH-Px(both P＜0.05)were both reduced.The mRNAs of cataract-related genes,including CRYAA,CRYBA1,CRYBB3,Bsfp1,GJA3,CRYBA2,MIP,HspB1,DNase2B,and GJA8,were significantly downregultaed in the lenses of the experimental group(all P＜0.05). Conclusion:There are significant differences in lens pathological changes,peroxidase levels,and cataract-related gene expression between cataract and healthy M.fortis.The developed cataract spontaneously in M.fortis is closely related to age,the cataract M.fortis might be an ideal animal model for the research of age-related cataract.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of Redo-Bentall surgery in the reoperation of aortic root lesions.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on 46 patients who underwent Redo-Bentall surgery for aortic root lesions in our department from June 2010 to April 2022.They were 35 males and 11 females,at a mean age of 43.37±12.79 years,in 4.96±6.76 years since the last operation.General clinical data in perioperative period and during follow-up were collected and analyzed.Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to compare the survival rates of each etiological group.Results There were 9 cases of central end otitis,12 cases of Behset's disease,and 25 cases of other causes.After operation,4 cases(8.70％)experienced cardiac arrest,4 cases(8.70％)renal failure,2 cases(4.35％)gastrointestinal bleeding,2 cases(4.35％)new third-degree atrioventricular block and 2 cases(4.35％)permanent pacemaker placement.In perioperative period,3 cases(6.52％)died in hospital.During a mean follow-up of 5.03±3.27 years after discharge,5 cases(11.63％)were lost to follow-up,1 case died(2.33％),1 case had lacunar infarction(2.33％),and no severe bleeding or embolism complications was observed in the rest patients.The long-term survival rate was significantly lower in the endocarditis group(62.3％)and the Behcet's disease group(70％)than the other etiological groups(80％,P＜0.05).Conclusion The application of Redo-Bentall in the reoperation of aortic root lesions is safe and effective,but the survival rate is quite lower in the patients with infective endocarditis and Behcet's disease.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in tertiary hospitals in major regions of China in 2022.Methods Clinical isolates from 58 hospitals in China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2022 Clinical &Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints.Results A total of 318 013 clinical isolates were collected from January 1,2022 to December 31,2022,of which 29.5％were gram-positive and 70.5％were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species(excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi)was 28.3％,76.7％and 77.9％,respectively.Overall,94.0％of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 90.8％of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis showed significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 94.2％in the isolates from children and 95.7％in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 13.1％in most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,21.7％-23.1％of which were resistant to carbapenems.Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.1％to 13.3％.The prevalence of meropenem-resistant strains decreased from 23.5％in 2019 to 18.0％in 2022 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and decreased from 79.0％in 2019 to 72.5％in 2022 in Acinetobacter baumannii.Conclusions The resistance of clinical isolates to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still increasing in tertiary hospitals.However,the prevalence of important carbapenem-resistant organisms such as carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a downward trend in recent years.This finding suggests that the strategy of combining antimicrobial resistance surveillance with multidisciplinary concerted action works well in curbing the spread of resistant bacteria.

Objective:To investigate the influence of liver drainage volume on overall survival time in patients with unresectable malignant hilar bile duct obstruction.Methods:Data of 633 patients with unresectable malignant hilar bile duct obstruction (BismuthⅡ-Ⅳ) who underwent endoscopic stent drainage in 3 endoscopy centers from January 2002 to May 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Main observation indicators included clinical success rate, stent patency, overall survival, the effective liver drainage volume, and complication incidence.Results:The clinical success rates of patients with liver drainage volume <30%, 30%-50%, and >50% were 56.8% (25/44), 77.3% (201/260) and 84.2% (277/329) respectively. The incidences of early cholangitis were 31.8% (14/44), 18.8% (49/260) and 16.1% (53/329). The median stent patency time was 4.5 (95% CI: 1.8-7.2) months, 5.6 (95% CI: 5.0-6.2) months and 6.6 (95% CI: 5.2-8.0) months. The overall survival time was 2.4 (95% CI: 1.8-3.0) months, 4.0 (95% CI: 3.4-4.6) months and 4.9 (95% CI:4.4-5.4) months, respectively. The clinical success rate ( χ 2=8.28, P=0.012), median stent patency period ( χ 2=18.87, P=0.015) and overall survival time ( χ 2=6.93, P=0.024) of 30%-50% liver drainage volume group were significantly higher than those of <30% group. Further multivariate cox regression analysis showed that the disease type (hepatocellular carcinoma VS hilar cholangiocarcinoma: HR=1.50, 95% CI:1.18-1.91, P=0.001; gallbladder carcinoma VS hilar cholangiocarcinoma: HR=1.45, 95% CI:1.14-1.85, P=0.002; metastatic cholangiocarcinoma VS hilar cholangiocarcinoma: HR=1.48, 95% CI:1.08-2.04, P=0.015), bilirubin level >200 μmol/L ( HR=1.35, 95% CI:1.14-1.60, P<0.001),metal stents ( HR=0.67, 95% CI:0.56-0.79, P<0.001), liver drainage volume (volume 30%-50% VS <30%: HR=0.64, 95% CI: 0.45-0.90, P=0.010; volume>50% VS <30%: HR=0.58, 95% CI:0.41-0.81, P=0.002) and anti-tumor therapy ( HR=0.51, 95% CI:0.42-0.61, P<0.001) were independent predictors for overall survival time of patients with unresectable malignant hilar bile duct obstruction. Conclusion:When endoscopic stent drainage is performed for patients with unresectable malignant hilar bile duct obstruction, at least 30% liver volume is required for better overall survival. In addition, the use of metal stent drainage and anti-tumor therapy may increase survival benefits.

Objective:To investigate the influene of sarcopenia on quality of life in patients with adenocarcinoma of gastroesophageal junction (AEG).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 109 patients with AEG who were admitted to Henan Provincial People′s Hospital from January 2019 to December 2022 were collected. There were 63 males and 46 females, aged (63±11)years. All patients underwent 3D laparoscopic assisted radical total gastrectomy+D 2 lymph node dissection. The skeletal muscle content of patient was obtained within 3 days before surgery by using a multi-frequency bioelectrical impedance human body composition analyzer. Observation indicators: (1) clinical characteristics of patients with sarco-penia and non sarcopenia; (2) intraoperative and postoperative conditions in patients with sarco-penia and non sarcopenia; (3) analysis of serious postoperative complications in patients with AEG; (4) preoperative and postoperative quality of life score in patients with sarcopenia and non sarco-penia. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U non-parameter rank sum test. Repeated measurement data were analyzed using the repeated ANOVA, and their variances were tested using a spherical test. Univariate analysis was conducted using the Logistic regression model, and multivariate analysis was conducted using the Logistic stepwise regression model. Results:(1) Clinical characteristics of patients with sarcopenia and non sarcopenia. Of 109 patients with AEG, there were 42 cases with sarcopenia and 67 cases with non sarcopenia. The body mass index (BMI), forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), rate of FEV1/forced vital capacity were (20.3±2.3)kg/m 2, 92%±9%, 79%±11% in patients with sarcopenia, respectively, versus (24.4±2.7)kg/m 2, 97%±9%, 85%±11% in patients with non sarcopenia, showing significant differences in the above indicators between them ( t=8.07, 2.46, 2.77, P<0.05). (2) Intraoperative and postoperative conditions in patients with sarcopenia and non sarco-penia. The volume of intraoperative blood loss, time to postoperative first flatus, duration of post-operative hospital stay, cases with postoperative complications were 208(192, 231)mL, (3.4±0.9)days, (11.4±3.2)days, 26 in patients with sarcopenia, respectively, versus 195(150,215)mL, (2.8±0.7)days, (9.9±1.6)days, 14 in patients with non sarcopenia, showing significant differences in the above indi-cators between them ( Z=-2.14, t=3.25, 3.38, χ2=18.69, P<0.05). (3) Analysis of serious postoperative complications in patients with AEG. Results of multivariate analysis showed that sarcopenia and BMI reduction were independent risk factors influencing serious postoperative complications in patients with AEG ( odds ratio=2.04, 1.98, 95% confidence interval as 1.24-3.36, 1.09-3.60, P<0.05). (4) Pre-operative and postoperative quality of life score in patients with sarcopenia and non sarcopenia. Results of multivariate test in physical function, role function, social function, overall score of patients with sarcopenia and non sarcopenia before surgery, 2 weeks after surgery, 4 weeks after surgery, and 8 weeks after surgery showed that there were significant differences in the temporal effect, intergroup effect and interaction effect of the above indicators between patients with sarcopenia and non sarcopenia ( P<0.05). Results of individual effects showed that there were significant differences in the intergroup effect of the above indicators between patients with sarcopenia and non sarcopenia ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Preoperative sarcopenia increases the risk of severe postoperative complications and reduces the postoperative quality of life in patients with AEG.

Objective To establish a quantitative polymerase chain reaction(PCR)method for the analysis of human-derived SRY DNA in mouse tissues,and to study the tissue distribution of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells(HUCMSCs)in immunodeficient NOG mice after a single intravenous injection.Methods We established a quantitative PCR method for the analysis of human SRY DNA in mouse tissues,and validated the standard curve,linear range,accuracy,precision,and stability.Thirty-six NOG mice(18 male,18 female)were administered 3.5×107 HUCMSCs/kg by single intravenous injection.Six mice were then anesthetized and dissected after blood collection(EDTA anticoagulation)at 6,12,24,and 72 h,and at 1 and 2 weeks,respectively.DNA was extracted from lung,kidney,heart,liver,brain,spinal cord,stomach,small intestine,fat,skin,spleen,testis,uterus,and ovary tissues,and the distribution of HUCMSCs in each tissue was determined by the validated quantitative PCR method for detecting the human-derived SRY gene in mouse tissues.In addition,18 NOG mice(9 male,9 female)were divided into control(n = 6)and treatment groups(n = 12)injected intravenously with 0.9%sodium chloride and 3.5×107 cells/kg,respectively.Acute toxic reactions were observed during the administration period,and four animals were dissected at 72 h and at 2 and 4 weeks after administration to observe the gross organs.Mitochondrial protein expression was detected in paraffin sections of lung tissues by immunohistochemistry to analyze the colonization of HUCMSCs in lung tissues.Results The established RT-qPCR method for human-derived SRY DNA in mouse tissues met the validation criteria for each index.After a single intravenous injection in NOG mice,HUCMSCs were mainly distributed in the lungs and blood within 1 week after administration,with higher concentrations in lung tissues than in blood.The concentrations of HUCMSCs in lung tissue and blood remained relatively stable within 6～24 h and 6～72 h,respectively,and then decreased over time.The distribution of HUCMSCs in other tissues was not measured at all sampling points.The colonization result showed that HUCMSCs were detected in lungs 72 h after intravenous injection,but not at 2 and 4 weeks.No obvious acute toxicity was observed in NOG mice after single intravenous administration of HUCMSCs.Conclusions The above method for analyzing the distribution of HUCMSCs in mouse tissue is reliable and feasible.HUCMSCs were mainly distributed in lung and blood in NOG mice within 1 week after a single intravenous injection,and mainly colonized lung tissue at 72 h.A single intravenous administration of HUCMSCs has a good safety profile.
