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.

Intentional tooth replantation (ITR) is an advanced treatment modality and the procedure of last resort for preserving teeth with inaccessible endodontic or resorptive lesions. ITR is defined as the deliberate extraction of a tooth; evaluation of the root surface, endodontic manipulation, and repair; and placement of the tooth back into its original socket. Case reports, case series, cohort studies, and randomized controlled trials have demonstrated the efficacy of ITR in the retention of natural teeth that are untreatable or difficult to manage with root canal treatment or endodontic microsurgery. However, variations in clinical protocols for ITR exist due to the empirical nature of the original protocols and rapid advancements in the field of oral biology and dental materials. This heterogeneity in protocols may cause confusion among dental practitioners; therefore, guidelines and considerations for ITR should be explicated. This expert consensus discusses the biological foundation of ITR, the available clinical protocols and current status of ITR in treating teeth with refractory apical periodontitis or anatomical aberration, and the main complications of this treatment, aiming to refine the clinical management of ITR in accordance with the progress of basic research and clinical studies; the findings suggest that ITR may become a more consistent evidence-based option in dental treatment.

OBJECTIVE To systematically evaluate the repair strategies for temporal bone-parotid composite defects,compare the clinical applicability of local muscle flaps and free flaps,and provide references for optimizing the reconstruction of complex head and neck defects.METHODS We retrospectively analyzed the medical records of 17 patients with postoperative defects in the temporal bone-parotid region treated at Beijing Tongren Hospital,Capital Medical University,between January 2018 and June 2023.There were 11 males and 6 females,with a median age of 58 years(range:42-72 years).All patients had undergone radical resection.Defects were reconstructed with local flaps in 13 cases(temporalis muscle flap,n=6;sternocleidomastoid flap,n=3;submental platysma flap,n=2;submental island flap,n=2)and with free flaps in 4 cases(anterolateral thigh fascial flap,n=1;anterolateral thigh flap,n=1;free abdominal adipofascial flap,n=2).RESULTS The primary diseases of the 17 patients were malignant tumors of the external auditory canal and parotid gland(6 cases of squamous cell carcinoma,6 cases of adenoid cystic carcinoma,and 3 cases of ductal carcinoma).All flaps survived completely.One patient with temporalis muscle flap repair developed postoperative wound infection,which healed after debridement and dressing change.The median follow-up period was 16 months(4-29 months).Two cases(11.8%)of external auditory canal squamous cell carcinoma had local recurrence,one case(5.9%)of parotid ductal carcinoma developed pulmonary metastasis 9 months after surgery and died at 15 months.The remaining 14 cases(82.4%)were tumor-free survivors.Functional evaluation showed that the local tissue flap group had a shorter repair time,but was limited by muscle flap rotation arc;the free flap group could accurately match the defect shape,but the surgical time was prolonged to 3.5-4.5 hours.Fourteen cases(82.4%)received postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy.None of the tissue flaps developed radiation necrosis after radiotherapy.CONCLUSION Temporal bone-parotid composite defects need to balance the dual requirements of surgical cavity coverage and cosmetic repair.Local muscle flaps are easy to operate and have reliable blood supply,suitable for small and medium-sized defects;free tissue flaps have better shape adaptability in complex three-dimensional defect reconstruction,but require microsurgical technical support.The repair plan should be comprehensively decided based on the defect range,vascular conditions,and radiotherapy plan.The data of this group confirmed that both techniques can achieve stable therapeutic effects.

Objectives:To investigate the predictive factors of stroke associated-pneumonia (SAP) in patients with acute stroke, develop nomogram and neural network prediction models and verify their predictive performance.Methods:Patients with acute stroke admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University and Zhenxiong County People's Hospital were included retrospectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent predictive factors of SAP, and develop nomogram and neural network prediction models. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) curves were used to validate and compare the predictive performances. Results:A total of 450 patients with acute stroke were enrolled, including 286 males (63.6%), aged 64.28±13.24 years; 344 patientss (76.4%) had ischemic stroke and 106 (23.6%) had hemorrhagic stroke; 128 patients (28.4%) experienced SAP. According to the random number method, they were divided into a modeling cohort ( n=300) and a validation cohort ( n=150). Multivariate logistic regression analysis in the modeling cohort showed that a higher baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score, gastric tube placement, use of proton pump inhibitors, heart failure, and higher neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) were the independent predictive factors of SAP. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve of the nomogram model for predicting SAP in the modeling cohort and validation cohort was 0.841 (95% confidence interval [ CI] 0.795-0.880) and 0.863 (95% CI 0.798-0.914), respectively. The sensitivity for predicting SAP were 75.00% and 70.45%, respectively, and the specificity was 81.94% and 92.45%, respectively. The area under the ROC curve of the neural network model for predicting SAP in the modeling cohort and validation cohort was 0.847 (95% CI 0.802-0.866) and 0.862 (95% CI 0.796-0.913), respectively. The sensitivity for predicting SAP were 76.19% and 72.73%, and the specificity was 79.17% and 89.62%, respectively. Conclusions:Higher NIHSS score, gastric tube placement, use of proton pump inhibitors, heart failure, and higher NLR are the independent risk factors for SAP in patients with acute stroke. The nomogram and neural network prediction model developed using the above risk factors have higher predictive value for SAP.

【Objective】 To investigate the effect of clinical factors and inflammatory markers on platelet transfusion refractoriness (PTR) in children with chemotherapy- induced thrombocytopenia (CIT) and evaluate their predictive value, so as to provide reference for mechanism study of PTR caused by non-immune factors in children with cancer and provide clinical guidance for reasonable and effective platelet transfusion in children. 【Methods】 A total of 60 CIT pediatric cancer patients from Children’s Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine between November 2022 and February 2024 were selected as the study subjects, and divided into the PTR group (n=30) and the non-PTR group (n=30) to collect the clinical data and laboratory markers before platelet transfusion (Plt). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of PTR. The predictive value influencing factors of PTR was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. 【Results】 Plasma IL-1β concentration in PTR group was significantly higher than that in non-PTR group[67.43 pg/mL (29.38, 222.40) vs 36.38 pg/mL (17.27, 68.06); P<0.05]; plasma IL-8 concentration in PTR group was significantly higher than that in non-PTR group[60.97 pg/mL (39.07, 112.00) vs 25.23 pg/mL (5.00, 71.38); P<0.01]; and the interval from initiation of chemotherapy to platelet transfusion was significantly higher in the PTR group than in the non-PTR group[9.5 d (8.0, 12.0) vs 12.0 d (9.8, 13.2); P<0.05]. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that IL-8 concentration (OR=1.05, P<0.05) had a statistically significant effect on the occurrence of PTR. ROC curve analysis showed that plasma IL-1β concentration (Cut-off value: 64.88 pg/mL; AUC: 0.653[95% CI: 0.511-0.796]) and plasma IL-8 concentration (Cut-off value: 33.33 pg/mL; AUC: 0.754[95% CI: 0.631-0.878]) and the interval from initiation of chemotherapy to platelet transfusion (Cut-off value: 11.5 days; AUC: 0.669[95% CI: 0.529-0.810]) were statistically significant in predicting PTR. 【Conclusion】 Plasma IL-8 concentration is an independent risk factor for PTR, and plasma IL-1β, IL-8 concentration and interval from initiation of chemotherapy to platelet transfusion have predictive value for PTR.

Objective:To explore the effects of home hospice care team service model in patients with end-stage malignant tumors and main caregivers, so as to provide intervention programs for improving the quality of life of patients with end-stage malignant tumors.Methods:In the prospective and controlled study, 106 patients with malignant tumors who received end-stage hospice care in Yuebei People′s Hospital and main caregivers from May 2021 to July 2021 were selected by convenience sampling method, and divided into trial group (53 pairs) and control group (53 pairs) according to the random number table method. The control group was treated with routine nursing intervention, and the trial group was given home hospice care team service model intervention based on the control group. The occurrence of falls and negative emotions and quality of life of patients, psychological stress of primary caregivers before and after intervention were observed by using Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS), Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS), Relative Stress Scale (RSS) and European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Scale (EORTC QLQ-C30).Results:Finally, 103 patients and main caregivers completed the study, with 52 pairs in the control group and 51 pairs in the trial group. In the control group, the patients were 29 males and 23 females, aged (54.33 ± 12.24) years old,and the main caregivers were 22 males and 30 females, aged (41.67 ± 8.14) years old. In the trial group,the patients were 27 males and 24 females,aged (55.17 ± 10.56) years old,and the main caregivers were 24 males and 27 females, aged (43.62 ± 7.39) years old. After intervention, the total incidence of falls and the total incidence of fall complications in the trial group were 7.84% (4/51) and 1.96% (1/51), respectively, which were lower than 25.00% (13/52) and 11.54% (7/52) in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=5.50, 4.75, both P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the score of SAS, SDS, RSS, EORTC QLQ-C30 before intervention between the two groups (all P>0.05). After intervention, the scores of SAS and SDS in trial group were (32.66 ± 3.18), (31.19 ± 4.50) points,which lower than those in control group (34.54 ± 3.91), (34.31 ± 4.03) points, the differences were statistically significant ( t=2.67, 2.51, both P<0.05). After intervention, the RSS scores of psychological distress, life disruption, negative emotion and total score of the main caregivers in trial group were (3.52 ± 0.48), (3.66 ±0.56), (3.47 ± 0.82), (10.65 ± 0.67) points, which were lower than those in the control group (4.74 ± 2.75), (4.67 ± 2.64), (4.12 ± 2.13), (13.53 ± 2.26) points, the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.04-8.73, all P<0.05). After intervention, the EORTC QLQ-C30 score in the trial group was (74.14 ± 5.64) points, which was lower than that in the control group (70.54 ± 7.07) points, the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.85, P<0.05). Conclusions:The application of home hospice care team service model can effectively reduce the risk of falls in patients with malignant tumor chemotherapy, improve the negative emotions of patients and the psychological stress state of their main caregivers, and improve the quality of life of patients.

Objective:To investigate the application value of transanal intersphincteric resec-tion under direct vision in the Jackknife position in the anal preserving surgery for ultra-low rectal cancer.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 15 patients with ultra-low rectal cancer who underwent transanal intersphincteric resection under direct vision in the Jackknife position, combined with laparoscopic total mesorectal excision in Huizhou Municipal Central Hospital from September 2021 to November 2022 were collected. There were 9 males and 6 females, aged (63±9)years. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Surgical and postoperative outcomes. All the 15 patients underwent operations successfully, without conversion to open abdo-minal operation. There were 5 cases of partial ISR and 10 cases of subtotal ISR. The operation time and volume of intraoperative blood loss of 15 patients were (260±30)minutes and 20(range, 10-30)mL, respectively. The distance from anastomosis to anal margin was (1.6±0.8)cm. The duration of post-operative hospital stay was 10(range, 8-13)days, and all 15 patients underwent colonic and anasto-mosis with staplers and protective ileostomy at the terminal ileum. Three patients had postoperative complications within 30 days after surgery, of whom 1 case with grade A anastomotic leakage was cured after conservative treatment and 2 cases with anastomotic membranous stenosis were cured by anal enlargement. (2) Postoperative pathological examination. The number of lymph nodes dissected of 15 patients was 18 ±6, and the distance between the tumor and distal resection margin was 1.3(range, 1.0-2.0)cm. The surgical specimens of all 15 patients showed complete mesorectum and negative for proximal, distal and circumferential margins. Results of postoperative pathological examination showed that there was 1 case in stage pT1N0M0, 9 cases in stage pT2N0M0, 1 case in stage pT2N1M0, 1 case in stage ypT0N0M0, 2 cases in stage ypT2N0M0, 1 case in ypT3N1M0 stage. The histological subtype showed 11 cases of moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma and 4 cases of well-differentiated adenocarcinoma. (3) Follow-up. All 15 patients were followed up for 15(range, 12-24)months. No local recurrence and distant metastasis of the tumor was found, and no tumor-related death occurred. All 15 patients underwent stoma closure. The postoperative anal function assessment of 15 patients showed no disorder in 5 cases, mild disorder in 8 cases and severe disorder in 2 cases.Conclusion:Transanal intersphincteric resection under direct vision in the Jackknife position in the anal preserving surgery for ultra-low rectal cancer is safe and feasible.

Aim To investigate the relationship between systemic inflammatory immune index(SII)and systemic inflammatory response index(SIRI)and the risk of in-hospital major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE)in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI).Methods Retrospective analysis was conducted on AMI patients ad-mitted to the Second Cardiovascular Disease Area of Suining Central Hospital from February 2021 to May 2022.Based on inclusion and exclusion criteria,246 patients were finally enrolled.According to whether MACE occurred during hospital-ization,they were divided into event group and non-event group,and baseline data of the two groups were compared.All variables except SII and SIRI were included in a univariate-multivariate Logistic regression analysis to screen factors af-fecting the risk of MACE,and were used as significant covariates for adjustment to evaluate the relationship between SII and SIRI and the risk of MACE respectively.Results The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that emergency PCI,left ventricular ejection fraction,albumin level and age were significant factors affecting the risk of in-hos-pital MACE in AMI patients(OR=0.432,95％CI:0.194～0.960,P=0.038;OR=0.930,95％CI:0.890～0.969,P=0.001;OR=0.730,95％CI:0.621～0.845,P＜0.001;OR=1.143,95％CI:1.070～1.228,P＜0.001),and a basic model was established based on this.After adjusting for the significant covariates,SII and SIRI were both independ-ent risk factors for in-hospital MACE(OR=1.004,95％CI:1.001～1.008,P=0.002;OR=4.467,95％CI:2.597～8.142,P＜0.001).The areas under the curves of SII and SIRI were 0.658 and 0.785,respectively,and the optimal cutoff values were 434.83 and 1.03.Restricted cubic spline analysis showed that SII(Nonlinear P=0.639)and SIRI(Nonlinear P=0.683)were linearly related to the risk of MACE after adjusting significant covariates.Threshold effect a-nalysis showed that when SIRI＞0.93,the risk of MACE began to increase.Conclusion Elevated levels of SII and SI-RI are independent risk predictors for the occurrence of in-hospital MACE in AMI patients.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in tertiary hospitals in major regions of China in 2022.Methods Clinical isolates from 58 hospitals in China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2022 Clinical &Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints.Results A total of 318 013 clinical isolates were collected from January 1,2022 to December 31,2022,of which 29.5％were gram-positive and 70.5％were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species(excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi)was 28.3％,76.7％and 77.9％,respectively.Overall,94.0％of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 90.8％of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis showed significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 94.2％in the isolates from children and 95.7％in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 13.1％in most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,21.7％-23.1％of which were resistant to carbapenems.Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.1％to 13.3％.The prevalence of meropenem-resistant strains decreased from 23.5％in 2019 to 18.0％in 2022 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and decreased from 79.0％in 2019 to 72.5％in 2022 in Acinetobacter baumannii.Conclusions The resistance of clinical isolates to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still increasing in tertiary hospitals.However,the prevalence of important carbapenem-resistant organisms such as carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a downward trend in recent years.This finding suggests that the strategy of combining antimicrobial resistance surveillance with multidisciplinary concerted action works well in curbing the spread of resistant bacteria.
