Traditional Chinese medicine in COVID-19

COVID-19 pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has spread across the globe, posing an enormous threat to public health and safety. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), in combination with Western medicine (WM), has made important and lasting contributions in the battle against COVID-19. In this review, updated clinical effects and potential mechanisms of TCM, presented in newly recognized three distinct phases of the disease, are summarized and discussed. By integrating the available clinical and preclinical evidence, the efficacies and underlying mechanisms of TCM on COVID-19, including the highly recommended three Chinese patent medicines and three Chinese medicine formulas, are described in a panorama. We hope that this comprehensive review not only provides a reference for health care professionals and the public to recognize the significant contributions of TCM for COVID-19, but also serves as an evidence-based in-depth summary and analysis to facilitate understanding the true scientific value of TCM.

Whole-process prevention and treatment model of traditional Chinese medicine for coronavirus disease 2019 epidemics / 中华危重病急救医学

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has a long history in treating infectious diseases, and the form of intervention varies with different medical conditions and disease types. "The battle field of Chinese doctor for anti-epidemic" was formed in fighting against severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) epidemics in China, and from the battle, valuable experiences of using TCM for prevention and treatment had been obtained. During responding to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemics, we followed the principle of keeping summary and perfection while treament. And a whole process of TCM pattern or a model was organized, including early prevention in communities, cluster intervention in isolated places, comprehensive intervention in mobile cabin hospitals, centralized treatment in designated hospitals and rehabilitation support in rehabilitation posts. Thus, the innovation of whole process of TCM intervention was involved in the "trench warfare" strategy and platform system for prevention and treatment of new infectious COVID-19 epidemics. At different stages or conditions, different TCMs were used to play advantageous roles to solve various problems and elevate the effects of prevention and treatment of the disease. The construction of TCM mobile cabin hospitals was an innovation of organization form that might offset the constraints in technology and scale of simple community isolation or simple hospital treatment, exploring a new way for TCM to cope with public health emergencies.

Multivariate analysis of the incidence of hepatic encephalopathy after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt / 中国综合临床

Objective To analyze the correlation between the clinical characteristics and the incidence of postoperative hepatic encephalopathy in patients with cirrhosis who received transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt ( TIPS) . Methods The clinical data of 80 patients with liver cirrhosis hospitalized in the Fifth Medical Center of PLA General Hospital from March 2015 to March 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The related factors of hepatic encephalopathy complications after TIPS treatment were analyzed. Results The cumulative incidence of hepatic encephalopathy was about 23. 75%(19／80) in one year after TIPS operation. Through single factor analysis and multi factor Logistic regression analysis,it was found that the two factors of preoperative platelet level and the location of tips blood shunt were closely related to the occurrence of hepatic encephalopathy after TIPS operation. The ROC curve suggested that the AUC of preoperative platelet level and the location of tips blood shunt were 0. 657 and 0. 668, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of the former were 70. 0%,52. 6% and the cutoff value was 51 ×109／L, respectively, while those of the latter were 70. 5% and 63. 2%, respectively. Conclusion Preoperative platelets level＞51×109／L or shunting of the left branches of the portal vein may indicate a lower incidence of hepatic encephalopathy.

Application of computer-aided approaches to the PUMC classification of scoliosis

Surgical planning for scoliosis relies on the classification of the spinal curve pattern. To improve the reliability of the Peking Union Medical College (PUMC) classification system for scoliotic spinal curves, a computer-aided system is proposed and its reliability is evaluated. First, the reliability of curve measurements was improved by the computer-aided Cobb measurement approach. Second, judgmental errors were reduced by the computer program through the automation of the PUMC classification procedure. Four observers divided into an expert group and a resident group participated in the experiments. The kappa statistic was used to evaluate the variability. Classifications of 65 scoliotic cases by the four observers showed that with the computer's aid, the average intraobserver and interobserver kappa values were improved from 0.86 to 0.93 and from 0.75 to 0.86, respectively. The results indicate that the proposed computerized system can assist a surgeon in the PUMC classification of scoliosis and is especially useful for inexperienced surgeons.
