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.

ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of Zexie Decoction （泽泻汤） in inhibiting neuroinflammation and improving cognitive impairment mediated by high-calorie diet. MethodsTwenty seven C57BL/J mice were randomly divided into control group （n = 9）， model group （n = 9） and Zexie Decoction group （n = 9）. The mice in the model group and the Zexie Decoction group were fed with high-calorie diet to establish the model of cognitive impairment. Meanwhile， the mice in Zexie Decoction group were also fed with 0.36 g/（kg·d）Zexie Decoction， and the mice in the control group and model group were fed with the same volume of normal saline for 8 weeks. The body weight of mice was recorded at the same time every week； after intervention， oral glucose tolerance test （OGTT） and insulin tolerance test（ITT） commenced； the cognitive level of mice was detected by Morris water maze， open field test， new object recognition test and Y maze； magnetic resonance spectroscopy （MRS） was used to detect the expression of N-acetylaspartate （NAA）， choline （CHO）， lactic acid （Lac）， creatine （Cr）， lipid （Lip）， and myoInositol （mI） in left hippocampus， hypothalamus and cortex. Western blotting was used to detect the expression of synaptophysin （SYN）， synaptosome associated protein-25 （SNAP-25）， postsynaptic dense protein-95 （PSD-95）， tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α）， nuclear factor kappa B （NF-κB p65） and its phosphorylated form （P-NF-B p65） in mouse brain； Nissl's staining was used to detect the morphological changes of hippocampal neurons. ResultsCompared with the control group， body mass， blood glucose in oral glucose tolerance test， and blood glucose in insulin tolerance test increased in the model group； in the Morris water maze experiment， the total distance travelled and escape latency of the model group mice increased， the time spent in the platform area and the number of times traversing the platform decreased on days 3 and 4； in the open-field experiment， the number of times the model group mice entered the central area， the ratio of the time in the central area to the total time， and the ratio of the distance travelled in the central area to the total distance significantly decreased； in the new object recognition test， the frequency of new object recognition and recognition index were significantly lower in the model group mice； in the Y-maze test， the spontaneous alternation rate of mice in the model group was significantly lower （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）； in the left hippocampus， hypothalamus， and cortex of mice in the model group， the CHO/Cr， NAA/Cr significantly decreased， and the mI/Cr， Lac/Cr and Lip/Cr significantly increased； SYN/β-actin， SNAP-25/β-actin and PSD-95/β-actin values significantly decreased， and p-NF-κB p65/NF-κB p65 and TNF-α/β-actin values significantly increased in brain tissue （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with the model group， the above indexes of mice in the Zexie Decoction group significantly improved （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. The results of Nissl staining showed that compared with the control group， the neurons in the dentate gyrus of the hippocampus in the model group were scattered and sparsely arranged， the density was significantly reduced， the nuclei of the cells had consolidation and shrinkage， the number of Nissl vesicles was reduced， and the staining became lighter； compared with the model group， the density of neurons in the hippocampal dentate gyrus region of the Zexie Decoction group increased， the wrinkling of nuclei improved， the cell gap narrowed， and the arrangement was slightly tight. Concusion The ameliorative effect of Zexie Decoction on cognitive function in mice with high-calorie diet-induced cognitive impairment may relate to the restructuring of glucose metabolism homeostasis， inhibition of neuroinflammation， reduction of neuronal damage， and enhancement of synaptic plasticity.

Objective To compare the blood glucose control effect and safety between insulin degludec and insulin aspart and insulin aspart 30 in non-obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods Non-obese patients with T2DM were divided into treatment group and control group according to different treatment methods.The control group was treated with insulin aspart 30,and the treatment group was treated with insulin degludec and insulin aspart.Pancreatic islet related indicators[fasting C-peptide(FCP)and 2-hour postprandial C-peptide(2 h CP)],blood glucose control effect[fasting blood glucose(FBG),2-hour postprandial blood glucose(2 h PG)and glycated hemoglobin(HbA1c)],serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D[25(OH)D]and the risk of hypoglycemia were compared between the two groups.Results There were 41 cases in treatment group and 39 cases in control group.After treatment,FCP levels in treatment group and control group were(0.84±0.09)and(1.07±0.14)nmol·L-1;2 h CP levels were(1.03±0.15)and(1.69±0.17)nmol·L-1;FBG levels were(5.46±0.57)and(6.18±0.67)mmol·L-1;2 h PG levels were(8.17±0.85)and(9.03±0.94)mmol·L-1;HbA1 c were(5.35±0.57)％and(6.47±0.68)％;25(OH)D levels were(26.33±2.75)and(20.54±2.17)nmol·L-1,all with significant difference(all P＜0.05).The incidence rates of non-severe hypoglycemia in treatment group and control group were 14.63％and 35.90％,with statistically significant difference(P＜0.05).The incidence rates of severe hypoglycemia in treatment group and control group were 9.76％and 12.82％;the incidence rates of nocturnal hypoglycemia were 19.51％and 17.95％,without statistically significant difference(all P＞0.05).Conclusion The overall therapeutic effect of insulin degludec and insulin aspart on non-obese patients with T2DM is better than that of insulin aspart 30.The former can effectively regulate blood glucose and pancreatic islet cell function,lower the risk of non-severe hypoglycemia.

Objective:To explore the differences in distribution of colorectal cancer-related risk factors between patients with early-onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC) and those with late-onset colorectal cancer (LOCRC) in a Chinese cohort, and to provide reference and guidance for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of EOCRC.Methods:Using data from the National Colorectal Cancer Cohort study cohort, 5377 patients with newly diagnosed colorectal cancer (CRC) attending the Department of Colorectal Surgery and Oncology of the Second Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine from June 2018 to February 2023 were included in the study cohort. Questionnaires capturing epidemiological features, including lifestyle and dietary habits, were administered. The patients were divided into two groups, the cut-off age being 50 years. Those aged ≥50 years were defined as having LOCRC and those aged <50 years as having EOCRC. Wilcoxon (continuous variates) or χ 2 tests (categorical variates) were performed to compare differences in epidemiological features. Results:A total of 3799 people who had completed the questionnaire were included in this study, 491 of whom had EOCRC and 3308 LOCRC. The response rate to the questionnaire was 70.7%. The median ages of patients in the EOCRC and LOCRC groups were 43 and 66 years, respectively. There was a higher proportion of female patients (48.5% [253/491] vs. 35.8% [1184/3308], χ 2=28.8, P<0.001) in the EOCRC than the LOCRC group. Patients with EOCRC and lower body mass index (medium 22.1 kg/m 2 vs. 22.9 kg/m 2, W=744 793, P=0.005) and lower proportion of abdominal obesity (87.2% [428/491] vs. 93.8% [3103/3308], χ 2=38.3, P<0.001). Patients with EORC significantly less commonly reported a history of hypertension (5.9% [29/491] vs. 41.6% [1375/3308], χ 2=231.8, P<0.001), diabetes (1.4% [7/491] vs. 14.4% [476/3308], χ 2=63.6, P<0.001) and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases (0.8% [4/491] vs. 7.3% [241/3308], χ 2=28.6, P<0.001). However, the proportion of patients with a family history of CRC was significantly higher ( P<0.05) in the EOCRC group (10.2% [50/491] vs. 6.9% [227/3 308], χ 2=6.5, P=0.010]. In terms of lifestyle, patients with EOCRC had shorter sleep duration (median: 8.0 hours vs. 8.5 hours, W=578 989, P<0.001), and were less likely to participate in physical exercise (29.5% [145/491] vs. 38.7% [1281/3308] χ 2=15.0, P<0.001) or engage in physical work (65.2% [320/491] vs. 74.1% [2450/3308], χ 2=16.7, P<0.001). Meanwhile, in the EOCRC group a lower percentage of patients were smokers (29.3% [144/491] vs. 42.7% [1411/3308], χ 2=46.9, P<0.001) and they smoked less (median 17.6 pack/year vs. 30.0 pack/year,W=55 850, P<0.001). Fewer patients in the EOCRC group habitually drank alcohol (21.0% [103/491] vs. 38.0% [1257/3308], χ 2=57.5, P<0.001) or tea (17.5% [86/491] vs. 28.7% [948/3308], χ 2=26.2, P<0.001) than in the LOCRC group. Compared with the LOCRC group, patients with EOCRC had a higher frequency of intake of fresh meat, fresh fruit, eggs, and dairy products and a lower frequency of intake of preserved meat and pickled vegetables; these differences are statistically significant (all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in consumption of fresh vegetables or a high-sugar diet between the two groups (both P>0.05). Conclusions:This study highlights disparities in adverse lifestyle and dietary habits between patients in China with EOCRC versus LOCRC.

Massive rotator cuff tears, with mean tendon tears>5 cm or involving two or more tendons in a tear, often result in shoulder pain, stiffness, limited range of motion and impaired function, significantly impacting the patients′ quality of life. At present, massive rotator cuff tears are mainly treated surgically with joint cleaning, rotator cuff repair and patch graft repair, etc, but the problems such as tendon end retraction and high rotator tension after surgical repair lead to high postoperative retear rate. The autogenous long head of biceps tendon (LHBT), as an autograft which has the advantages of high accessibility and low cost, has been employed in the repair of massive rotator cuff tears. However, there is still controversy in the choice of specific surgical method. To this end, the authors reviewed the research progress on the application of LHBT in the repair of massive rotator cuff tears, aiming to provide reference for its clinical treatment.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of superior capsular reconstruction using a "sandwich" patch graft versus a fascia lata autograft in the treatment of irreparable massive rotator cuff tears (IMRCTs).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 50 patients with IMRCTs who underwent superior capsule reconstruction at Ningbo Medical Center Li Huili Hospital from January 2019 to May 2021. Patients were categorized into two groups based on the type of graft used: the "sandwich" group (27 patients), utilizing a "sandwich" patch graft, and the fascia lata group (23 patients), utilizing a simple fascia lata graft. The "sandwich" group consisted of 10 males and 17 females with a mean age of 65.6±5.7 years (range, 55-76 years), including 6 cases on the left shoulder and 21 cases on the right shoulder. The fascia lata group comprised 10 males and 13 females with a mean age of 65.5±4.2 years (range, 56-72 years), including 4 cases on the left shoulder and 19 cases on the right shoulder. Clinical outcomes were assessed preoperatively and at 1 week, 6 months, 1 year, and 2 years postoperatively using the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) score, and the visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain and shoulder activity. Imaging outcomes, including acromio humeral distance (AHD) and graft status, were evaluated via radiographs or MRI.Results:The follow-up duration was 40.0±8.4 months (range, 26-54 months) for all patients. The "sandwich" group demonstrated significantly better outcomes compared to the fascia lata group. Improvements were noted in the ASES score (90.1±8.7 vs. 66.8±22.0), ASES score improvement (58.0±11.8 vs. 36.7±24.2), UCLA score (31.0±3.1 vs. 23.0±8.7), UCLA score improvement (20.1±4.5 vs. 12.7±9.2), active elevation (160.0°±21.3° vs. 124.8°±37.4°), active elevation improvement (70.2°±31.4° vs. 33.7°±42.4°), external rotation (35.0°±9.0° vs. 29.0°±6.9°), external rotation improvement (11.3°±7.3° vs. 7.2°±10.4°), AHD (6.4±1.5 mm vs. 4.4±1.0 mm), AHD improvement (3.0±1.6 mm vs. 1.5±1.0 mm), the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The graft healing rate of the "sandwich" group reached 93%, which was higher than the 74% in the fascia lata group, but the difference was not statistically significant (χ 2=1.984, P=0.159). One case of subcutaneous hematoma was reported in the fascia lata group postoperatively. Additionally, two patients in the fascia lata group reported mild thigh discomfort at the last follow-up, which did not impair walking. No cases of infection, joint stiffness, or vascular or nerve damage were observed. Conclusion:Superior capsular reconstruction using a "sandwich" patch graft significantly enhances the healing rate of grafts and short-term postoperative clinical outcomes in patients with irreparable massive rotator cuff tears.

Objective To investigate the effects of high-calorie diet and age on brain function of ApoE-/-mice.Methods A total of 20 adult ApoE mice(8 months old)and elderly ApoE-/-mice(18 months old)were randomly divided into normal diet adult group,normal diet elderly group,high-calorie diet adult group,and high-calorie diet elderly group,with 5 animals in each group.The mice were fed with corresponding standard diet and high-fat diet for 8 weeks.Their body mass was monitored,and blood glucose was detected with glucose tolerance test.The relative contents of NAA and Cho in the hippocampus and hypothalamus were detected by Magnetic resonance spectroscopy.Y-Maze and open field tests were performed to detect cognitive function,and West-ern blotting was applied to detect the expression of synaptic associated protein 25(SNAP-25),synaptophysin,postsynaptic dense protein-95(PSD-95),iNOS and IL-1β.Results Compared with the normal diet adult group,the NAA content in the hippocampus,Cho and NAA contents in the hypothalamus,spontaneous alternation rate,and expression levels of SNAP-25,synaptophysin and PSD-95 in brain tissue(P＜0.05,P＜0.01)were decreased,and the expression of iNOS and IL-1β(P＜0.01)was increased in the high-calorie diet adult group.The normal diet elderly group had reduced contents of NAA in the hippocampus and Cho in the hypothalamus,and expression levels of SNAP-25,synaptophysin and PSD-95(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),and elevated expression of iNOS and IL-1β(P＜0.01)when compared with the normal diet adult group.Compared with the normal diet elderly group,high-calorie diet resulted in decreased Cho and NAA in both hippocampus and hy-pothalamus,central distance/total distance and down-regulation of SNAP-25,synaptophysin and PSD-95(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),and enhanced expression of iNOS and IL-1β(P＜0.01)in the elderly mice.Compared with the high-calorie diet adult group,the high-calorie diet elderly group had reduced NAA in hippocampus,central distance/total distance and average speed,and decreased expression of synaptophysin(P＜0.05,P＜0.01),and increased expression of iNOS and IL-1β(1.61±0.10 vs 1.35±0.13,2.04±0.08 vs 1.54±0.11,P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Conclusion High-calorie diet results in metabolic disorders and neuroinflammation,inhibits the expression of syn-aptic proteins,and thus leads to cognitive dysfunction in ApoE mice.Long-term high-calorie diet and ageing promote the decline of brain function in ApoE mice.

Objective To evaluate the in vitro effect of combinations of 5 β-lactam antibiotics with different β-lac-tamase inhibitors on the activity of multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis(MDR-TB),and identify the most effective combination of β-lactam antibiotics and β-lactamase inhibitors against MDR-TB.Methods MDR-TB strains collected in Henan Province Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Project in 2021 were selected.The mini-mum inhibitory concentrations(MIC)of 5 β-lactam antibiotics or combinations with different β-lactamase inhibitors on clinically isolated MDR-TB strains were measured by MIC detection method,and the blaC mutation of the strains was analyzed by polymerase chain reaction(PCR)and DNA sequencing.Results A total of 105 strains of MDR-TB were included in the analysis.MIC detection results showed that doripenem had the highest antibacterial activity against MDR-TB,with a MIC50 of 16 μg/mL.MIC values of most β-lactam antibiotics decreased significantly after combined with β-lactamase inhibitors.A total of 13.33％(n=14)strains had mutations in blaC gene,mainly 3 nu-cleotide substitution mutations,namely AGT333AGG,AAC638ACC and ATC786ATT.BlaC proteins Ser111 Arg and Asn213Thr enhanced the synergistic effect of clavulanic acid/sulbactam and meropenem on MDR-TB compared with synonymous single-nucleotide mutation.Conclusion The combination of doripenem and sulbactam has the strongest antibacterial activity against MDR-TB.Substitution mutations of BlaC protein Ser111 Arg and Asn213Thr enhances the sensitivity of MDR-TB to meropenem through the synergy with clavulanic acid/sulbactam.
