LI Ping, YANG Fan, LIU Hanmin
2025, 17 (1):  1-7.  doi: 10.20274/j.cnki.issn.1674-3865.2025.01.001
Abstract ( 43 )   PDF (1165KB) ( 10 )  
Childhood and adolescent obesity has become a global challenge in public health.Its high weight regain rate and risks of metabolic complications highlight the limitations of traditional intervention strategies.This review systematically explores individualized intervention strategies for obesity in children and adolescents in the context of precision medicine,breaking the traditional "one-size-fits-all" model.It integrates multi-omics technologies with intelligent management methods,proposing a multidimensional framework for precise intervention.First,a precise diagnosis and evaluation system is constructed based on multi-modal data,including genomics,radiomics,and gut microbiomics,to identify genetic susceptibility,metabolic phenotypes and microbiome characteristics,laying the foundation for stratified interventions.Secondly,individualized intervention plans are developed based on genetic risk scores,epigenetic regulatory mechanisms,and gut microbiome-targeted therapies:gene-guided strategies aim to optimize dietary structure through multi-gene risk assessments; epigenetic interventions aim to regulate DNA methylation and histone modification by taking advantage of nutrients (such as methyl donors and short-chain fatty acids),reversing metabolic dysregulation; microbiome remodeling aims to improve energy metabolism balance through probiotics and synbiotics.Furthermore,artificial intelligence and wearable devices are employed for dynamic monitoring in multiple scenarios.By collaborating with multidisciplinary teams in nutrition,sports medicine,and psychology,a smart management model of "hospital-family-community" network is established.While precision medicine offers groundbreaking directions for childhood obesity treatment,challenges such as biomarker validation,data integration,and long-term efficacy evaluation remain to be addressed.This review provides theoretical foundations and practical pathways for the improvement in the effectiveness and sustainability of interventions,emphasizing the need to integrate interdisciplinary innovative technologies in the future in order to promote the transformation of childhood obesity management toward precision and intelligence.

LIU Qiannan, WANG Yanchao, MIAO Yizhuo, LI Lan
2025, 17 (1):  13-16.  doi: 10.20274/j.cnki.issn.1674-3865.2025.01.003
Abstract ( 36 )   PDF (1085KB) ( 3 )  
Since the 1970s,it has been believed in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) that the pathogenesis of precocious puberty is primarily associated with yin-deficiency and fire-excess,and the treatments that nourish yin and purge fire are advocated.Therefore,an integrated treatment strategy combining TCM and western medicine has gradually been formulated.Modern medical research indicates that precocious puberty results from the interplay of genetic and environmental factors,involving heredity,diet,chemical substance interference,and psychological factors.TCM emphasizes the combined influence of internal and external factors,such as dietary irregularities and emotional disturbances,and focuses on therapeutic methods like nourishing yin,purging fire,soothing the liver,and relieving stagnation.The integrated approach of TCM and western medicine offers a more comprehensive treatment plan for precocious puberty.The TCM theory of "preventive treatment of disease" underscores the importance of prevention,reducing risk factors and performing proactive treatment to avoid long-term complications.

LIU Ziqi, ZHANG Guiju
2025, 17 (1):  17-22.  doi: 10.20274/j.cnki.issn.1674-3865.2025.01.004
Abstract ( 29 )   PDF (1129KB) ( 3 )  
When children enter puberty,they will experience prominent changes mainly in the morphology of their reproductive organs,and development of function and secondary sexual characteristics.The main manifestation of precocious puberty is the earlier development of secondary sexual characteristics and the premature maturation of sexual organs,which is an endocrine disease characterized by abnormal growth and development of children.With the development of economy and society,the advancement of the onset age of precocious puberty and the increase in incidence rate have triggered increasing social attention.Multiple factors can have an impact on precocious puberty,and modern researches have confirmed a correlation between the daily diet of children before puberty and precocious puberty.This article reviews domestic and foreign researches in common dietary patterns and various dietary nutrients related to adolescent sexual development in children,represented by high calorie diet patterns,Mediterranean diet patterns,and vegetarian diet patterns,and it summarizes the influence of different dietary patterns on precocious puberty in children.The article respectively summarizes the potential regulatory mechanisms of high protein diet,high-fat diet and high sugar diet in high calorie diet patterns,as well as the main dietary components (vegetables,fruits,olive oil,grains,nuts,beans,and dairy products) in Mediterranean diet patterns and vegetarian diet patterns in sexual development.The aim is to provide theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of precocious puberty in children from the perspective of dietary intervention,and to provide new ideas for future researches on the relationship between dietary nutrition structure and sexual development.

2025, 17 (1):  45-49.  doi: 10.20274/j.cnki.issn.1674-3865.2025.01.009
Abstract ( 27 )   PDF (1099KB) ( 4 )  
Objective To measure serum uric acid(SUA) levels in children of different ages(0 to 14 years),investigate the incidence of high level of uric acid in those regions,and analyze its association with gender,age,body size-body mass index(BMI),and living habits[including consumption of seafood,consumption of long-boiled soup/stew,consumption of vegetables,consumption of beverages,consumption of sweets,daily water intake(mL) and daily exercise (min)].Methods Totally 1 209 children visiting Kaiping City Centre Hospital and Kaiping Maternal and Child Health Hospital from January 2022 to September 2023 were enrolled in the study.Height/length,weight and SUA of the children were measured,and the children were grouped according to age and gender in order to investigate the SUA levels of children in different age groups and genders.In addition,the children were grouped according to the SUA level to investigate the current situation of uric acid and the incidence of hyperuricaemia in the region.In the meantime,the relationship between hyperuricaemia(HUA) in the children and their gender,age,body size-BMI and living habits were also investigated.Results The distribution of SUA levels showed no statistically significant difference between different genders(P>0.05). In children of different ages and body types, SUA levels exhibited a trend of gradual increase with age and body type growth. The overall detection rate of hyperuricemia was 20.18%(244/1 209), and the comparison of the detection rates of hyperuricemia between different genders showed no statistically significant difference(P>0.05). However, the comparison of hyperuricemia detection rates among different ages and body types showed statistically significant differences(P<0.01). Logistic regression analysis revealed that seafood consumption, beverage intake, and a preference for sweet foods were risk factors for hyperuricemia, while increased vegetable intake, fluid consumption, and appropriate exercise were protective factors for uric acid levels. Conclusion The level of SUA in children in Kaiping City increases with age and changes in body type, with no specific relation to gender; high-purine and high-sugar foods are risk factors for hyperuricemia.

ZHANG Yu, XIAO Yang, ZHOU Mengxiao, SUN Liping
2025, 17 (1):  59-63.  doi: 10.20274/j.cnki.issn.1674-3865.2025.01.012
Abstract ( 29 )   PDF (1073KB) ( 7 )  
The function of the spleen in children is often insufficient, and improper feeding, or disease damage may cause the fact that food can't be digested, which is food accumulation。Although it is a disease of the spleen, Professor Sun Liping believes that long time of food accumulation can form internal heat syndrome, thereby inducing a variety of pediatric diseases. Attention should be paid to the physical changes caused by congenital abnormality and acquired dystrophy. Based on the physiological and pathological characteristics of children, Yin and Yang theory, five-element theory and constitution theory, and through combination with more than 30 years of clinical experience of Professor Sun Liping, this paper explores the etiology and pathogenesis of children's diseases caused by "food", the disease outcome transformed by "heat", the diagnosis experience from "observation", and the treatment method by "elimination". A new line of thinking of "same treatment for different diseases" is provided for the diagnosis and treatment of abdominal pain, cough, asthma and tic disorders caused by food accumulation.

Analysis of the development of treatment for pediatric rhinitis from the perspectives of deficiency and cold syndromes and the application of Xu's pediatrics theory of supporting yang
CUI Chen, LI Jingwei, ZHOU Junhui, YANG Chuwen, ZHAO Jun, PU Xiaowei
2025, 17 (1):  67-70.  doi: 10.20274/j.cnki.issn.1674-3865.2025.01.014
Abstract ( 30 )   PDF (1054KB) ( 3 )  
Pediatric rhinitis is a common nasal disorder in children. TCM practitioners throughout history have extensively discussed its etiology and pathogenesis. This article traces the literature and historical origins of treatment for pediatric rhinitis from the perspectives of deficiency and cold syndromes. It is pointed out that external cold is a common cause. The root cause of its recurrence is the deficiency and damage of the lungs, spleen and kidneys. The pathogenesis involves lung-qi deficiency and coldness, leading to insufficient defense of the exterior; kidney-yang deficiency results in a lack of warmth and nourishment; spleen and stomach weakness leads to the failure of ascending clear yang; all of the above factors contribute to the development of pediatric rhinitis. Additionally, the article delves into Xu's pediatrics theory of supporting yang and its application, aiming to provide assistance for clinical practice.

Professor Li Xinmin's experience in treating refractory nephrotic syndrome in children with the method of dredging and regulating the triple energizer
CHEN Hongxiang, LI Xinmin, HAN Yaowei, QIN Luping
2025, 17 (1):  71-74.  doi: 10.20274/j.cnki.issn.1674-3865.2025.01.015
Abstract ( 25 )   PDF (1059KB) ( 3 )  
Refractory nephropathy in children is one of the difficulties that need to be urgently addressed in clinical practice. Based on years of clinical experience, Professor Li Xinmin believes that "dysfunction of the pivot of the triple energizer" is the core pathogenesis, and advocates the basic treatment principle of "dredging and regulating the qi movement of the triple energizer, with particular emphasis on the spleen and stomach in the middle energizer". Clinically, he is good at restoring the qi transformation of the triple energizer by coordinating the ascending and descending of the qi movement of the "lung, spleen, stomach and liver" thereby normalizing the water and fluid metabolism function. Meanwhile, he advocates treating the disease based on stages. In the acute recurrence stage, emphasis is placed on clearing and dispersing the lung qi in the upper energizer, and Yinqiao Silian decoction with modification is often used. In the remission stage, attention is paid to dredging and promoting the spleen and stomach in the middle energizer, and Weiling decoction with modification is commonly employed. In the protracted stage, focus is on dredging and regulating the qi movement of Shaoyang, and Chaihu Linggui Zhugan decoction with variation is often administered. Professor Sun Liping emphasizes moderation and balance in the prescription and medication, and he is particularly skilled in using the combination of bitterness with acridity to unfold and regulate the pivot. The clinical therapeutic effect is significant.

Treatment for pediatric pulmonary diseases based on the theory of "lungs governing skin and hair" and the method of "analogy and classification" 
WEI Jiaxuan, YANG Jianhui, FENG Zhongfa, LI Rong, ZHAO Shun, LIU Qiaoya
2025, 17 (1):  75-78.  doi: 10.20274/j.cnki.issn.1674-3865.2025.01.016
Abstract ( 32 )   PDF (1062KB) ( 3 )  
This paper explores the application value of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) theory of "lungs governing skin and hair" and the thinking method of "analogy and classification" in the treatment of pediatric pulmonary diseases.Both "lungs governing skin and hair" and "analogy and classification" are traditional TCM theoretical approaches guiding clinical differential diagnosis and treatment.By discussing the correlation between the lungs and the skin and hair,and then employing the method of analogy and classification,this paper explores the feasibility and efficacy of treating pulmonary diseases by the "skin"-cortex (the character of skin and cortex is the same in Chinese).Starting from the physiological characteristics of children,such as "lung deficiency" and loose cutaneous layers,the paper argues that "cortex-related" herbal medicines (e.g.,Baixian Pi,Hou Po,and Chan Tui) can improve the pathological features of being easily invaded by external pathogens in children.Through case studies,this paper demonstrates a formula containing cortex-related herbs in the treatment of cough (wind-phlegm obstructing the lung) in a 4-year-old child,which is very effective.The results confirm the clinical feasibility of this approach.By integrating traditional TCM theories with modern scientific validation,this paper provides new insights into the diagnosis and treatment of pediatric pulmonary diseases,highlighting the unique advantages of TCM in the field of pediatrics.

Application of San Yin Zhi Yi in the treatment of children with cough variant asthma
LIANG Chaoqi, LONG Hongyan
2025, 17 (1):  79-83.  doi: 10.20274/j.cnki.issn.1674-3865.2025.01.017
Abstract ( 34 )   PDF (1080KB) ( 1 )  
Pediatric cough variant asthma (CVA) is a common chronic respiratory disease primarily characterized by chronic cough. The exact etiology of CVA is not yet fully understood, but it is widely believed that the progression of the disease is influenced by various pathological factors, and is closely related to the patient's individual constitution, seasonal changes, and regional environmental characteristics. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) categorizes CVA under "wind cough", "wheezing cough", and "spasmodic cough", and pediatric CVA is managed according to the principle of "San Yin Zhi Yi"(three-cause adaptation), which involves personalized adjustments of the treatment plan based on the patient's constitution, seasonal changes and regional environment, reflecting the holistic treatment concept and syndrome-differentiation treatment of TCM. Therefore, this article discusses the etiology and pathogenesis of pediatric CVA from the perspectives of both TCM and modern medicine, based on the TCM principle of "San Yin Zhi Yi". It comprehensively considers the impact of factors such as constitution, season and environment on the onset and progression of the disease, exploring the application of San Yin Zhi Yi treatment for pediatric CVA from the three aspects of adapting to the season, region and individual. The aim is to provide a better theoretical foundation and practical guidance for the future TCM treatment of pediatric CVA.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Xiaoer Dingchuan granule in the intervention of respiratory syncytial virus pneumonia (syndrome of phlegm-heat blocking the lung) in children.Methods A total of 72 children with respiratory syncytial virus pneumonia (syndrome of phlegm-heat blocking the lung) admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Liaoning University of Traditional Chinese Medicine,Liaoning Maternal and Child Health Hospital and Benxi Manzu Autonomous County Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from June 2023 to June 2024 were selected as the study subjects,who were randomly divided into control group and observation group with 36 cases in each group.The control group received basic treatment,and the observation group received Xiaoer Dingchuan granule in addition to the treatment for the control group.After 7 days of treatment,the clinical efficacy,TCM syndrome efficacy,single symptom remission time,disappearance time and adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.Results After treatment,the clinical effect and TCM syndrome effect of the observation group were better than those of the control group.The remission time of wheezing,cough,gurgling with sputum and fever in the observation group was shorter than that in the control group,and the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).No adverse events occurred in the observation group.One case in the control group had nausea and vomiting,which disappeared after treatment.Conclusion Xiaoer Dingchuan granule has a positive therapeutic effect in the treatment of respiratory syncytial virus pneumonia (syndrome of phlegm-heat blocking the lung);the clinical effect is good,accelerating the disappearance of symptoms,and clinical application safety is high,which is worthy of clinical promotion.
