To thoroughly implement the strategic deployment outlined in the Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Promoting the Inheritance and Innovative Development of Traditional Chinese Medicine regarding research on dominant diseases of traditional Chinese medicine and to uphold the development philosophy of equal emphasis on traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine，the China Association of Chinese Medicine has fully played a leading academic role by systematically organizing and conducting a series of academic youth salons on clinical dominant diseases of traditional Chinese medicine. On September 13，2024，the 36^th Youth Salon on Clinical Dominant Diseases was successfully held in Nanjing，focusing on the advantages of traditional Chinese medicine and the integrative traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine in the diagnosis and treatment of erectile dysfunction （ED）. The conference brought together leading experts from traditional Chinese medicine，western medicine，and interdisciplinary fields，facilitating in-depth multidisciplinary discussions that led to key consensus on optimizing traditional Chinese medicine treatment protocols for ED，researching and developing new drugs of traditional Chinese medicine，and advancing interdisciplinary development in traditional Chinese medicine. This salon systematically sorted out the clinical strengths and distinctive features of traditional Chinese medicine in the diagnosis and treatment of ED. Based on current research foundations and clinical needs，it identified key directions for future scientific layout and scientific research tackling： （1） Standardization of syndrome differentiation system of traditional Chinese medicine for ED. （2） Optimization and standardization of intervention methods of integrated traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine. （3） High-quality clinical research guided by evidence-based medicine. （4） In-depth analysis of the pharmacological mechanisms of traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of ED. （5） Clinical translation and application promotion of new drugs of traditional Chinese medicine. （6） Interdisciplinary integration and innovation in traditional Chinese medicine. For each research direction，key focus areas，expected objectives，and clinical value were further refined，along with the establishment of a scientifically sound priority funding level evaluation system. Therefore，building on the series of salons on the ED-focused dominant diseases of traditional Chinese medicine，this paper provides standardized guidance for clinical practice of traditional Chinese medicine in ED management，effectively contributing to the high-quality development of traditional Chinese medicine. It serves as a valuable reference for national scientific and technological strategic layout， research and development decision-making in new drugs of traditional Chinese medicine，research topic planning，and clinical guideline formulation.

Objective To evaluate the disease risk of Vibrio parahaemolyticus (VP) in aquatic products of raw food in Guangzhou. Methods VP detection was carried out in aquatic products of raw food sold in Guangzhou from 2009 to 2022. Gene sequence and wgSNP analysis of 30 VP strains (including 15 food strains and 15 patient strains) were performed for the detection rate of pathogenic VP. sQMRA was applied to assess VP risk of aquatic products of raw food. Results The detection rate of VP in raw aquatic products in Guangzhou was 7.30% (98/1 343). The detection rate of TDH virulence gene in patient strains was 86.70% (13/15) , and the detection rate of TRH was 6.67% (1/15). In 15 food strains, TDH and TRH were negative. The WgSNP analysis showed that 2 food strains had high similarity with the patient strains, indicating the same cluster. Risk assessment showed that the number of Vibrio parahaemolyticus infection cases caused by intaking aquatic products of raw food in Guangzhou was 384 ever year. Conclusion The detection rate of VP in aquatic products of raw food is high in Guangzhou , and the detection rate of VP virulence genes in aquatic products of raw food is low. Gene sequence and wgSNP analysis can be used for risk assessment of food pathogenic bacteria. The risk of disease of Vibrio parahaemolyticus in aquatic products of raw food is high.

Objective:To analyze the research programs of clinical trials related to the TCM treatment of Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) at home and abroad; To provide references for the follow-up study of TCM treatment of HT.Methods:All clinical research registration plans for TCM prevention and treatment of HT were retrieved from the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry, the International Traditional Medicine Clinical Trial Registry, and the WHO International Clinical Trial Registration Platform from the establishment of the databases to December 31, 2024. Excel 2019 and GraphPad Prism 9.0 were used for data processing, and the basic characteristics, study types, randomized methods, interventions, outcome indicators and other registration information of registered trials with the frequency analysis.Results:A total of 31 clinical trials were included in this study, and the number of registered studies has gradually increased since 2018, which involving 23 clinical institutions in 9 provincial-level administrative regions until 2024. The region with the highest number of registrations is Shanghai (14 items). The funding sources were mainly local financial support and hospital funding. The research types were mostly intervention studies (30 items). The main research design type was randomized parallel controlled trials (27 items).Conclusions:At present, the overall number of registration studies on TCM prevention and treatment of HT is relatively small. However, in recent years, researchers have paid more attention to the registration of clinical trials in this field. The regional distribution of existing trial registration is not balanced, and the research design scheme needs to be improved.

Objective:To explore the mechanism of long non-coding RNA RP11-79H23.3 in the development and progression of prostate cancer.Methods:The lnCAR database was used to analyze the RP11-79H23.3 content in prostate cancer tissues and adjacent tissues. RP11-79H23.3 content in prostate cancer cell lines C4-2B, LNCaP, DU-145, and 22Rv1 was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Taking 22Rv1 as the research target, colony formation experiments and scratch experiments were used to detect the effects of overexpression of RP11-79H23.3 on the proliferation and migration of 22Rv1 cells. The LncRNome and lncACTdb databases were used to predict the downstream gene and binding sequences of RP11-79H23.3. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database was used to analyze the correlation between RP11-79H23.3 and miR-410 expression in prostate cancer tissues. The binding of RP11-79H23.3 and miR-410 was confirmed by dual-luciferase reporter gene experiment. The effect of RP11-79H23.3 on the expression of miR-410 was detected by RT-qPCR. Western blotting was used to detect the effect of RP11-79H23.3 on the expression of phosphatase and tensin homolog/protein kinase B/mammalian target of rapamycin (PTEN/AKT/mTOR) signaling pathway proteins in 22Rv1 cells. The measurement data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation ( ± s), paired sample t-test was used for comparison between two groups, and one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison between multiple groups. Results:Compared with adjacent tissues, RP11-79H23.3 was lowly expressed in prostate cancer tissues ( P<0.01). Compared with normal prostate epithelial cells RWPE-1, RP11-79H23.3 was lowly expressed in prostate cancer cell lines C4-2B, LNCaP, DU-145, and 22Rv1 ( P<0.05). The expression of RP11-79H23.3 in 22Rv1 cells in the control group and RP11-79H23.3 group were 1.02 ± 0.30 and 8.94±1.95, respectively. 22Rv1 cells were successfully overexpressed RP11-79H23.3 compared with the control group ( t=4.04, P<0.01). The number of 22Rv1 cell clones in the control group and RP11-79H23.3 group were 166.10 ± 18.35 and 35.03±6.98, respectively. Overexpression of RP11-79H23.3 could inhibit the proliferation of 22Rv1 cells compared with the control group ( t=6.67, P<0.01). The migration rates of 22Rv1 cells in the control group and RP11-79H23.3 group were (67.40 ± 6.29)% and (26.42 ± 6.24)%, respectively. Overexpression of RP11-79H23.3 could inhibit the migration of 22Rv1 cells compared with the control group ( t=5.71, P<0.01) .Dual-luciferase reporter gene experiment showed that RP11-79H23.3 directly binds to miR-410 ( t=6.20, P<0.01). The expression of miR-410 in 22Rv1 cells in the control group and RP11-79H23.3 group were 6.22±1.39 and 1.05±0.23, respectively. RP11-79H23.3 could inhibit the expression of miR-410 in 22Rv1 cells compared with the control group ( t=3.68, P<0.01). At the same time, RP11-79H23.3 can inhibit the transduction of the PTEN/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway in 22Rv1 cells. Conclusion:RP11-79H23.3 blocks the PTEN/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway by inhibiting the expression of miR-410, thereby inhibiting the proliferation and migration of prostate cancer 22Rv1 cells.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of goal-directed fluid therapy (GDFT) on postoperative acute kidney injury (AKI) in elderly patients undergoing long-time abdominal surgery.Methods:The medical records from elderly patients of both sexes, aged ≥ 65 yr, with a duration of operation ≥ 8 h and American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅱ or Ⅲ, undergoing elective first abdominal surgery for gastrointestinal tumors at the Shanxi Provincial People′s Hospital from October 1, 2016 to June 30, 2022, were collected from the electronic medical record database. Patients were divided into conventional fluid therapy group (group C) and GDFT group (group G) according to whether GDFT was employed during operation. In group C, blood pressure was maintained ≥90/60 mmHg or mean arterial pressure≥65 mmHg, and urine output more than 30 ml/h. In group G, the stroke volume variation was maintained ≤13%, and cardiac index ≥2.5 L·min -1·m -2. The patient general characteristics, requirement for fluid, urine output, blood loss, requirement for vasoactive agents and abdominal hyperthermic perfusion, and operation time were recorded during operation. The development of AKI within 72 h after operation and development of other complications (pneumonia, anastomotic leakage, surgical site infection, septic shock, arrhythmia) after operation were recorded. The length of hospital stay and 30-day mortality after operation were recorded. Results:A total of 125 patients were included in this study, with 41 patients in group C and 84 patients in group G. Postoperative AKI occurred in 19 patients, with an incidence of 15.2%. Compared with group C, the requirement for colloid, total volume of fluid infused and urine volume were significantly decreased during operation, the requirement for vasoactive agents was increased during operation ( P<0.05), the risk of postoperative AKI was reduced ( OR=0.23, P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the incidence of other postoperative complications, 30-day mortality, and length of hospital stay in group G ( P>0.05). Conclusions:GDFT can reduce the risk of AKI in the elderly patients undergoing long-time abdominal surgery.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of the multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) deep learning artificial intelligence (AI) analysis system combined with 68Ga-prostate specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET for prostate cancer. Methods:Data of 103 patients (age: 45-85 years) who underwent 68Ga-PSMA PET/MR at Union Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from May 2018 to October 2023 for suspected or confirmed prostate cancer were retrospectively collected. ROI was delineated to measure SUV max of primary tumor or prostate, and a deep learning AI system was applied to analyze MR images of the prostate. The diagnostic efficacies of T 2 weighted imaging (WI), diffusion WI (DWI), mpMRI, PET SUV max, and PET/MR for prostate cancer were assessed, with using the pathological results as the gold standard. Results:Among 103 patients, 82 cases (79.61%) were with prostate cancer. PET unimodality demonstrated the best specificity (100%, 21/21), positive predictive value (100%, 58/58), and AUC (0.860, 95% CI: 0.777-0.920). The mpMRI AI analysis provided rapid diagnostic results and the sensitivity and accuracy were improved by combining with PET (sensitivities of PET, mpMRI and the combination of the two were 70.73%(58/82), 86.59%(71/82), and 92.68%(76/82), respectively; the accuracies were 76.70%(79/103), 81.55%(84/103) and 86.41%(89/103), respectively). Among 44 patients with negative PET, 30 patients received an accurate diagnosis when the results of mpMRI AI analysis were added. Conclusions:68Ga-PSMA PET demonstrates good specificity for prostate cancer and mpMRI AI analysis is time-saving. The combined application improves the diagnostic sensitivity and accuracy, which provides a valuable tool for 68Ga-PSMA PET/MR image analysis.

Objective:To evaluate the association between N-acylsphingosine amide hydrolase 1 (ASAH1) and pyroptosis during acute lung injury (ALI) in septic mice.Methods:Forty SPF-grade healthy male C57BL/6 mice, aged 6-8 weeks, weighing 18-23 g, were divided into 4 groups ( n=10 each) by a random number table method: sham operation group (Sham group), ALI group, HCFU solvent+ ALI group (HA group) and ASAH1 inhibitor HCFU+ ALI group (AA group). The abdominal cavity was only opened in Sham group, and cecal ligation puncture was performed in ALI, HA and AA groups. HCFU solvent 0.2 ml was intraperitoneally injected at 2 h before operation in HA group, and HCFU 10 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected at 2 h before operation in AA group. The mice were sacrificed at 24 h under deep anesthesia, the eyeballs were removed to collect the blood, the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was collected, and lung tissues and blood samples were collected for microscopic examination of the pathological changes (using HE staining) which were scored and for determination of concentrations of protein in BALF (by BCA method), concentrations of interleukin-1beta (IL-1β), IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in BALF (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), and expression of NOD-like receptor thermoprotein structural domain-related protein 3 (NLRP3) in lung tissues (by Western blot), gasdermin D protein (GSDMD), ASAH1 and cysteine protease-1 (caspase-1) (by Western blot). The wet/dry lung weight (W/D) ratio was calculated. Results:Compared with Sham group, the lung injury score, W/D ratio and concentrations of protein in BALF, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in serum were significantly increased, and the expression of NLRP3, GSDMD and caspase-1 in lung tissues was up-regulated in ALI, HA and AA groups, and the expression of ASAH1 was significantly up-regulated in ALI and HA groups ( P<0.05). Compared with ALI and HA groups, the lung injury score, W/D ratio, and concentrations of protein in BALF, IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in serum were significantly increased, the expression of NLRP3, GSDMD and caspase-1 in lung tissues was up-regulated, and the expression of ASAH1 was down-regulated in AA group ( P<0.05 or 0.01). Conclusions:ASAH1 is involved in the endogenous protective mechanism underlying ALI in septic mice, which may be related to the inhibition of cell pyroptosis.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of simultaneous arthroscopic repair of anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) and calcaneofibular ligament (CFL) for treating chronic lateral ankle instability (CLAI) in conjunction with subtalar instability (STI).Methods:This is a retrospective case series study. The clinical data of 15 patients with ankle arthroscopic in the Department of Hand and Foot Surgery, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2019 to December 2022 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 11 male cases and 4 female cases, aged (28.6±1.5) years (range: 19 to 39 years). All the patients were evaluated by manual inversion stress X-ray and MRI before operation. Arthroscopically observing and then repairing the ATFL and CFL separately after further diagnostic confirmation. One year after operation, MRI was performed, and pain visual analogue score(VAS), American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society ankle hindfoot scale (AOFAS-AH) and Karlsson ankle functional scale(KAFS) were evaluated. Data were compared using paired sample t test. Results:The follow-up period was (23.6±2.3) months (range: 12 to 30 months). At last follow-up,the VAS decreased from 6.1±1.4 preoperatively to 1.4±1.2( t=9.482, P<0.01).The AOFAS-AH improved from 50.5±11.7 preoperatively to 94.2±6.1( t=-13.132, P<0.01), and the KAFS improved from preoperatively 44.3±10.8 to 90.8±6.4 ( t=-12.510, P<0.01). There was no complication such as recurred instability or joint stiffness. Conclusions:Arthroscopically repairing the ATFL and CFL separately can effectively restore the stability of the ankle and subtalar joint with small trauma. Patients can recover quickly after surgery. It provides a new idea for the clinical treatment of CLAI combined with STI.
