Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of the Qingre Yiqi method in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with meta-analysis.
Method: The randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of the Qingre Yiqi method in the treatment of T2DM in the PubMed, Medline, EMBase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Weipu Journal, China Knowledge Network (CNKI), and Wanfang database were conducted. Three reviewers independently conducted the screening, extracted the data, and assessed methodological quality. Data analysis was performed using Rev Man 5.3 software for statistical analysis.
Results: A total of 15 RCTs, including 1440 patients, were included. The results showed that compared with oral hypoglycemic drugs alone, the add-on treatment of the Qingre Yiqi method could significantly improve Chinese medicine syndrome (OR (95%CI) = 3.66 [2.47,5.42], < 0.00001) and lower the level of HbA1c (MD (95%CI) = -0.68 [0.91, -0.45], < 0.00001), triglyceride (TG) (MD (95%CI) = -0.38 [-0.58,-0.17], =0.0004), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (MD (95%CI) = -0.25 [-0.37, -0.13], < 0.0001), and total cholesterol(TC) (MD(95%CI) = -0.40[-0.67, -0.13], =0.003). In terms of fasting blood glucose (FBG) and postprandial blood sugar (PBG), subgroup analysis showed that the baseline of FBG and the number of combined oral hypoglycemic drugs of PBG were the major sources of heterogeneity.
Conclusion: Compared with the standard treatment, the Qingre Yiqi method along with oral hypoglycemic drugs showed the more beneficial effects for T2DM on improving TCM syndromes and reducing the blood glucose and partial lipid parameter.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of a phased Chinese herbal sitz bath for the treatment of complex anal fistula based on the traditional Chinese medicine theory of "Fuzheng Quxie."
Methods: We enrolled 200 patients with complex anal fistula who were hospitalized and treated surgically in the Department of Anorectal Medicine of Suining Central Hospital from June 2021 to December 2022. The patients were randomly divided into 2 groups of 100 patients each: sitz bath group 1 (postoperation, the patients used a sitz bath with a self-formulated decoction of "Qingre Zaoshi Zhitong" formula, once in the morning and once in the evening) and sitz bath group 2 (postoperation, the patients used the same decoction as the sitz bath group 1, and when the incision began to heal, the patients then used a sitz bath with a self-formulated decoction of "Yiqi Fuzheng" formula, once in the morning and once in the evening).

Cognition may be improved by the active ingredients of the Yiqi Qingre Ziyin method in patients with atrophic rhinitis (AR). This study aimed to identify potential targets of the Yiqi Qingre Ziyin method for the treatment of patients with cognitive impairment. Nasal mucosal tissue samples from patients with AR were subjected to proteomic assays, and differentially expressed proteins were obtained.

Atrophic rhinitis (AR) is a chronic disease that causes severe structural changes to the nasal mucosa leading to squamous epithelial metaplasia. However, treatment regarding AR remains a major challenge. We used network pharmacology and molecular docking methods to explore the potential mechanisms of the Yiqi Qingre Ziyin method to modulate neuropeptides in the treatment of AR.

To investigate the regularity of prescription and clinical syndromes by analyzing the diagnosis and treatment protocols of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) for coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19), so as to provide references for syndrome differentiation and relevant researches. The diagnosis and treatment protocols of COVID-19 published by national and regional health authorities were searched, and information was extracted in regard to disease stages, type of syndromes, and prescriptions, etc. Frequency statistics and relative analysis were used to analyze the rule of syndrome differentiation and prescription with TCM, and further discussion on the pathogenesis and progress of the disease.
