Liumotang comes from the Yuan dynasty's Effective Prescription Handed Down for Generations of Physicians. It is composed of six medicinal materials: Arecae Semen, Aquilariae Lignum Resinatum, Aucklandiae Radix, Linderae Radix, Rhei Radix et Rhizoma, and Aurantii Fructus. It is a classical formula for treating abdominal pain due to Qi stagnation and constipation accompanied by heat. This study systematically collated the records of Liumotang in ancient medical books and modern clinical literature and conducted in-depth analysis and textual research on its formula source, main diseases, composition, dosage, medical books, container capacity, processing, preparation method, usage, drug basis, formula meaning, and other key information, so as to provide a powerful reference for the development and clinical application of compound preparations of the classical formula Liumotang. The results show that Liumotang was first seen in Effective Prescription Handed Down for Generations of Physicians, and many medical books of the past dynasties have imitated this. In terms of drug basis, the dried and mature seeds of the palm plant Areca catechu, resin-containing wood of the Daphneaceae plant Aquilaria sinensis, the dried roots of the Asteraceae plant woody Aucklandia lappa, the dried tuber root of the Lauraceae plant Lindera aggregata, the dried roots and rhizomes of the knotweed plant, R. palmatum, R.tangutikum, and R. officinale, and the dried and unripe fruits of the citrus genus C. aurantium and its cultivated varieties from the family Rutaceae were selected. In terms of dosage, through the textual research on bowls in the Ming and Qing dynasties, combined with the conversion of medicines and bowl capacity in the Qing dynasty, it was estimated that the dosage of each drug in the Yuan dynasty was 10.86 g. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, the dosage of drugs was mostly equal, but the dosage of drugs was somewhat different. In terms of processing, preparation method, and usage, in the medical books of the past dynasties, the processing of drugs has slightly changed, but raw drugs are used in all preparations. The preparation method and usage did not change much during the Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties, except for certain differences in dosage. In terms of syndrome, Liumotang was first used to treat abdominal pain due to Qi stagnation and constipation accompanied by heat. Medical books of the past dynasties often omit the symptoms of heat. In modern clinical practice, Liumotang is mainly used in the digestive system and urinary system diseases and is mostly used to treat constipation-predominant irritable bowel syndrome, biliary reflux gastritis, functional constipation, slow transit constipation, and other diseases, with no adverse reactions found yet. The above results provide a reliable scientific basis for the development and clinical treatment of Liumotang compound preparations.

OBJECTIVE To build a Tibetan-language medication service platform based on “internet+” and evaluate its effect on improving medication compliance and safety of Tibetan patients with chronic disease. METHODS Medication guidance contents of commonly used drugs in the outpatient department were summarized, translated and recorded in Tibetan-language or video to form a “text-audio-video” multi-dimensional “internet+ ” Tibetan-language medication service platform. A total of 387 Tibetan outpatients with chronic disease in our hospital after the implementation of “internet+” Tibetan-language medication service platform (from January 2024 to June 2024) in our hospital were selected as the intervention group, and 387 Tibetan outpatients before the implementation (from January 2023 to June 2023) were selected as the control group. Patients in the control group received conventional window-based Chinese-language medication services, while patients in the intervention group received both conventional window-based Chinese-language medication service and “internet+ ” Tibetan-language medication service. The medication compliance of patients was evaluated using the 12-item Medication Compliance Scale. A six-level causality assessment was conducted as the principles for analyzing adverse drug reactions (ADR) set by the National Center for ADR Monitoring. Additionally, statistics were compiled on the occurrence of ADR that were assessed as “definite”“probable” or “possible” in the causality assessment. RESULTS The proportion (31.0%) of patients with good medication compliance and compliance scores [39.0 (37.0,42.0)] of patients in the intervention group were significantly better than control group [7.0%, 21.0(19.0, 23.0)]( P<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in the incidence of various types of ADR or the overall incidence between the two groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS The “internet+” Tibetan-language medication service platform is constructed successfully; the service can effectively improve the medication compliance of Tibetan-language patients, but its effect on improving the medication safety of patients is limited.

AIM: To investigate the effect of residual astigmatism on visual quality after phacoemulsification combined with regional refractive intraocular lens(IOL)implantation in patients with age-related cataract, and to evaluate the astigmatism inclusivity of regional refractive IOL.METHODS: Retrospective cohort study. The clinical data of 62 cases(73 eyes)of age-related cataract patients who underwent phacoemulsification combined with regional refractive IOL(Lentis Comfort LS-313 MF15)implantation from July 2020 to March 2022 at the ophthalmology department of our hospital were collected. They were grouped according to residual astigmatism at 6 mo postoperatively, taking 35 cases(40 eyes)with residual astigmatism of 0.75 D to 1.50 D as the experimental group, and 27 cases(33 eyes)with residual astigmatism ≤0.75 D as the control group. Visual acuity, defocus curves, objective visual acuity [wavefront aberrations, Strehl ratio(SR), modulation transfer functions(MTF)], subjective visual acuity(national eye institute visual function questionnaire-25), patients' satisfaction, and spectacle independence were compared between the two groups at 6 mo postoperatively.RESULTS:There was a difference in the preoperative astigmatism and the number of postoperative 6 mo residual astigmatism between the two groups(P<0.01). At 6 mo postoperatively, there was no difference in uncorrected distance, intermediate, and near visual acuity, objective visual quality, subjective visual quality, satisfaction, and spectacle independence between the two groups(P>0.05). The defocus curves showed that there was no difference in visual acuity between the two groups at all points in the +2.00 to -4.00 D defocus range of the additional spherical equivalent(P>0.05).CONCLUSION:Lentis Comfort LS-313 MF15 IOL was able to accommodate regular astigmatism of 1.50 D.

Objective To establish a method to simultaneously determinate cobalt, nickel, arsenic, molybdenum, silver, cadmium and lead in blood and urine using inductively coupled plasma tandem mass spectrometry (ICP-MS/MS). Methods The blood samples were diluted 20 times with a mixed solution of nitric acid (0.10% V/V) and Triton X-100 (0.02% V/V). The urine samples were diluted 10 times with nitric acid (1.00% V/V). Yttrium-89, rhodium-103, and lutetium-175 were used as internal standards to decrease matrix interference, and either On-Mass mode or Mass-Shift mode was used to decrease mass spectrometry interference, with detection by ICP-MS/MS. Results The linear ranges of the seven elements were 0.100-10.000 μg/L, with the correlation coefficient >0.999 9. The detection limits for the seven elements in the blood and urine were 0.003-0.021 and 0.003-0.031 μg/L, respectively, and the minimum quantification limits were 0.009-0.064 and 0.009-0.094 μg/L, respectively. The recovery rates were 96.64%-102.90% and 96.34%-104.50% for the blood and urine, respectively. The within-run relative standard deviations (RSDs) were 0.32%-2.33% and 0.25%-2.31%, and the between-run RSDs were 1.07%-3.81% and 1.30%-3.62% for blood and urine, respectively. The samples were stable at 4 ℃ for at least 14 days. Conclusion ICP-MS/MS is a simple, sensitive, and accurate method for rapid detection of seven heavy metal elements in the blood and urine of occupational hazard-exposed workers.

Objective:To understand the current antiviral treatment status and various clinical types of treatment plans in Xiamen City so as to explore ways to improve and optimize the diagnosis and treatment standards for chronic hepatitis B.Methods:A cross-sectional survey method was used to study the antiviral treatment status and treatment plans for chronic hepatitis B patients who visited and were diagnosed in the Department of Infectious Diseases and Hepatology of all tertiary hospitals in Xiamen City at 0:00~23:59 on May 25, 2022.Results:A total of 665 cases were surveyed in this study, with an antiviral treatment rate of 81.2%(540/665). The antiviral treatment rate of patients who accorded with the current guidelines for antiviral treatment indications was 85.8%(507/591). The antiviral treatment rate for 362 outpatients was 72.9%(264/362). Among them, the antiviral treatment rates were 80.1%, 89.3%, and 25.0%(226/282, 25/28, 13/52), respectively, for patients diagnosed with chronic hepatitis B, hepatitis B cirrhosis, and hepatitis B surface antigen-carrying status. The treatment plan for all outpatient patients was mainly oral nucleos(t)ide analogues, accounting for 59.1%(214/362). The antiviral treatment rate for 303 inpatients was 91.1%(276/303). The various clinical types of antiviral therapy rates among all patients were 70%~95%. The antiviral treatment plan for inpatients was mainly based on pegylated interferon alpha treatment, accounting for 72.6%(220/303).Conclusion:Antiviral treatment for chronic hepatitis B in Xiamen City can still be strengthened to meet the current demand for expanding antiviral treatment indications. Antiviral treatment rates and various types of treatment plans differ between outpatients and inpatients; thus, further awareness and acceptance of the goal of improving antiviral therapy, especially in outpatients, and the possibility for a clinical cure based on pegylated interferon alpha treatment are needed to maximize the benefit to more patients.
