[Academic characteristics of contemporary famous traditional Chinese medicine experts and schools in treatment of chronic renal failure based on SrTO].

According to the systematic review of text and opinion(SrTO) developed by the Joanna Briggs Institute(JBI), this study integrated the evidence of the medical cases, papers, medical experience, and other related research of famous experts and schools on the treatment of chronic renal failure in the field of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) nephropathy, analyzed the academic characteristics and influencing factors from the aspects of the principle, method, recipe, and medicines, and explored the internal logic and law of inheritance and innovation in TCM nephropathy. A total of 36 famous TCM experts and 4 schools were included. The work areas are concentrated in North and South China.

Chinese patent medicine as a complementary and alternative therapy for type 2 diabetes mellitus: A scoping review.

Objective: This scoping review aims to document Chinese Patent Medicines (CPMs) for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus, explore whether CPMs can improve patients' health outcomes, and set priorities in addressing research gaps in this area.

Methods: Following the framework of PRISMA-SCr, we proposed the research questions based on PICOS principle, and searched the CPMs for T2DM from three drug lists, followed by a systematic search of the literature in eight databases from their inception to June 22, 2023. Then, we developed the eligibility criteria and systematically reviewed the relevant studies, retained the studies about CPMs for T2DM, extracted the related data, and identified the differences across studies in structured charts.

Efficacy of Traditional Chinese Medicine on Animal Model of IgA Nephropathy: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Objective: Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has a long history in the treatment of Immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN). A large number of animal experiments focused on the TCM treatment of IgAN are conducted every year. The evidence for these preclinical studies is not clear.

A study on the information-motivation-behavioural skills model among Chinese adults with peritoneal dialysis.

Aim And Objective: To examine whether the information-motivation-behavioural skills model could predict self-care behaviour among Chinese peritoneal dialysis patients.

Background: Peritoneal dialysis is a treatment performed by patients or their caregivers in their own home. It is important to implement theory-based projects to increase the self-care of patients with peritoneal dialysis.

[Review on the Methodology for Optical Parameter Extraction with Terahertz Time-Domain Spectroscopy].

Optical parameters which macroscopically characterize optical properties of materials indirectly reflect microscopic peculiarities of materials. Accurate extractions of optical parameters are significant for the research of microscopic behavior and macroscopic responses of materials. In recent years, as a new spectral analysis method, terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) technology has become a research hotspot.

[Study on the Samples of Weathered Red-Bed Mudstone Based on THz-TDS].

The weathering universally takes place in red-bed mudstone slope，which is not completely solved till now. Under the influence of geotechnical weight force, vibration, and other factors, unsteady red-bed mudstone slope caused due to weathering often lead to harmful deformation and failure, resulting in collapse of geological disasters such as landslides, falling rocks and mudslides. Weathering depth is the vertical distance after the rock burst produced inside the fracture surface micro cracks or micro-cracks in the weathering zone extends to the interior of the rock.
