We propose a method for simulating a 1D non-Hermitian Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model with modulated nonreciprocal hopping using a cyclic three-mode optical system. The current system exhibits different localization of topologically nontrivial phases, which can be characterized by the winding number. We find that the eigenenergies of such a system undergo a real-complex transition as the nonreciprocal hopping changes, accompanied by a non-Bloch parity-time symmetry breaking.

Methods: Sixty patients with IBS-D of spleen and kidney deficiency were randomly divided into a Hunyuan moxibustion group and a western medication group, 30 cases each group. The Hunyuan moxibustion group was treated with moxibustion at Guanyuan（CV 4），40 min each time, once a day; in the western medication group，loperamide hydrochloride capsules (2 mg each time, 3 times a day) and bacillus licheniformis live capsules (0.
Article Synopsis
- The study aims to determine the effectiveness of long snake moxibustion on patients with yang-deficiency constitution who suffer from recurrent exopathogenic diseases, by analyzing different durations of treatment (30, 60, and 90 minutes).
- Ninety patients were randomly assigned to three groups, receiving moxibustion once a week for 12 weeks, and their health metrics were recorded before and after treatment.
- Results showed significant improvement in health scores and reduced frequency of diseases, with the 60-minute session being the most effective treatment duration.
Objective: To observe the effect of long-snake moxibustion on pain, functional disorder and body constitution in the patients with lumbago of cold-dampness type.
Methods: A total of 90 patients with lumbago of cold-dampness type were randomized into long-snake moxibustion, acupuncture and medication groups, 30 cases in each group. In the long-snake moxibustion group, long-snake moxibustion was exerted on the spinal (between Dazhui[GV14] and Yaoshu[GV2]) with the self-prepared moxa powder formula combined with fresh ginger and moxa wool, once a week, for 4 weeks.
