DongYuan: An LLM-Based Framework for Integrative Chinese and Western Medicine Spleen-Stomach Disorders Diagnosis

The clinical burden of spleen-stomach disorders is substantial. While large language models (LLMs) offer new potential for medical applications, they face three major challenges in the context of integrative Chinese and Western medicine (ICWM): a lack of high-quality data, the absence of models capable of effectively integrating the reasoning logic of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome differentiation with that of Western medical (WM) disease diagnosis, and the shortage of a standardized evaluation benchmark. To address these interrelated challenges, we propose DongYuan, an ICWM spleen-stomach diagnostic framework. Specifically, three ICWM datasets (SSDF-Syndrome, SSDF-Dialogue, and SSDF-PD) were curated to fill the gap in high-quality data for spleen-stomach disorders. We then developed SSDF-Core, a core diagnostic LLM that acquires robust ICWM reasoning capabilities through a two-stage training regimen of supervised fine-tuning. tuning (SFT) and direct preference optimization (DPO), and complemented it with SSDF-Navigator, a pluggable consultation navigation model designed to optimize clinical inquiry strategies. Additionally, we established SSDF-Bench, a comprehensive evaluation benchmark focused on ICWM diagnosis of spleen-stomach disorders. Experimental results demonstrate that SSDF-Core significantly outperforms 12 mainstream baselines on SSDF-Bench. DongYuan lays a solid methodological foundation and provides practical technical references for the future development of intelligent ICWM diagnostic systems.

When OpenClaw Meets Hospital: Toward an Agentic Operating System for Dynamic Clinical Workflows

Large language model (LLM) agents extend conventional generative models by integrating reasoning, tool invocation, and persistent memory. Recent studies suggest that such agents may significantly improve clinical workflows by automating documentation, coordinating care processes, and assisting medical decision making. However, despite rapid progress, deploying autonomous agents in healthcare environments remains difficult due to reliability limitations, security risks, and insufficient long-term memory mechanisms. This work proposes an architecture that adapts LLM agents for hospital environments. The design introduces four core components: a restricted execution environment inspired by Linux multi-user systems, a document-centric interaction paradigm connecting patient and clinician agents, a page-indexed memory architecture designed for long-term clinical context management, and a curated medical skills library enabling ad-hoc composition of clinical task sequences. Rather than granting agents unrestricted system access, the architecture constrains actions through predefined skill interfaces and resource isolation. We argue that such a system forms the basis of an Agentic Operating System for Hospital, a computing layer capable of coordinating clinical workflows while maintaining safety, transparency, and auditability. This work grounds the design in OpenClaw, an open-source autonomous agent framework that structures agent capabilities as a curated library of discrete skills, and extends it with the infrastructure-level constraints required for safe clinical deployment.
