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 investigate the therapeutic efficacy of artesunate(AS)on polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS)in mice and explore the potential mechanism primarily.Methods Twenty-five female C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into Control group,model group(PCOS group),low-and high-dose AS groups(AS15 and AS30 groups)and metformin group(Met group).In addition to the Control group,the mouse model of PCOS was established by subcutaneous injection of dehydroepiandrosterone(DHEA,60 mg/kg)following by a high-fat diet for 21 d.After modeling,AS of 15 and 30 mg/kg was intraperitoneally injected into the mice of the AS 15 and AS30 groups,respectively,and 200 mg/kg Met was given to those of the Met group by gavage,once per day,for 6 weeks.ELISA was used to detect serum testosterone(T),fasting insulin(FINS),luteinizing hormone(LH)and follicle-stimulating hormone(FSH),and the LH/FSH ratio was calculated.The levels of fasting blood glucose(FBG),triglyceride(TG)and total cholesterol(TC)were detected by automatic biochemical analyzer,and the homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance(HOMA-IR)was calculated.The estrous cycle was observed,and HE staining was performed for pathological changes in the ovary and uterus.Immunofluorescence assay was employed to measure the expression of p-eIF2α,ATF4 and CHOP in the ovarian tissue.After steroidogenic human granulosa-like tumor cell line KGN were exposed to 100 μmol/L DHEA to simulate the hyperandrogen environment of PCOS,and then treated with 5 and 10 μg/mL AS for 24 h,the protein levels of endoplasmic reticulum stress signaling pathway was detected by Western blotting.Results Compared with the Control group,the PCOS mice had disturbed estrous cycle,polycystic changes in the ovaries,and significantly increased serum T level and LH/FSH ratio(P＜0.05),and obviously elevated HOMA-IR,TC and TG levels in terms of metabolism(P＜0.01).The expression levels of p-eIF2α,ATF4 and CHOP were notably up-regulated in the ovarian granulosa cells of PCOS mice and KGN cells after DHEA exposure(P＜0.05).Additionally,AS treatment attenuated the pathological changes of ovary and uterine expression,decreased the serum T level and the LH/FSH ratio(P＜0.05),and reduced HOMA-IR,TC and TG levels(P＜0.05)when compared with the PCOS mice.Moreover,the expression levels of p-eIF2α,ATF4 and CHOP were significantly down-regulated after AS treatment in both ovarian granulosa cells of PCOS mice and KGN cells(P＜0.05).Conclusion AS significantly improves glycolipid metabolic disorder and reproductive dysfunction in PCOS mice,which may be associated with its suppressing endoplasmic reticulum stress by inhibiting the PERK/eIF2α/ATF4/CHOP pathway.

The aim of this updated guideline is to provide comprehensive recommendations for the management of gout in patients with common comorbidities, such as chronic kidney disease(CKD), cardiovascular disease(CVD), diabetes, osteoarthritis(OA), and gastrointestinal disorders. This guideline was developed by a multidisciplinary expert panel consisting of specialists in endocrinology, rheumatology, nephrology, cardiology, gastroenterology, and methodology. The development process adhered to standard methodologies, including PICO(population, intervention, comparator, and outcomes) question deconstruction, systematic literature review, the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation(GRADE) for evidence and recommendation evaluation, Delphi voting, and expert consensus. The guideline presents 26 evidence-based recommendations addressing 7 clinical questions for patients with hyperuricemia and gout in the context of comorbidities. Key recommendations include the maintenance of strict serum urate targets, particularly for patients with CKD stage≥3, chronic gouty arthritis, and OA, in order to prevent disease progression. In patients with CVD or diabetes, intra-articular triamcinolone is preferred over systemic glucocorticoids. Prioritized anti-inflammatory treatments for patients with CKD, gastrointestinal diseases and OA are recommended. The guideline also introduces emerging therapies, such as interleukin-1 inhibitors and selective urate transport inhibitors, as potential treatment options for refractory cases. The update offers a comprehensive, patient-centered approach to managing gout, particularly in individuals with associated comorbidities. Multidisciplinary collaboration and emerging new treatments and evidence ensure the optimization of the recommendations.

Gongfa is an essential approach to prevent and treat diseases in traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),often used to prevent a disease before it arises.Guided by TCM and modern scientific theories,the Tuina(Chinese therapeutic massage)Gongfa prescription theory implements the principle,method,prescription,and form in clinical pattern-identified treatment to prescribe the corresponding Tuina Gongfa prescription,i.e.,to prescribe a basic Tuina Gongfa prescription,specifically for a systemic disease,and modify Gongfa forms based on the basic prescription according to different patterns.The Gongfa prescription for pulmonary diseases designs corresponding Gongfa forms from six perspectives:lifting Yang,securing the exterior,opening the orifices,soothing the chest,harmonizing the stomach,and regulating Qi to prevent and treat diseases.The application of the pulmonary Gongfa prescription indicates the potential to apply the Tuina Gongfa prescription theory for the clinical prevention,treatment,and rehabilitation of disorders of other systems,thereby fully realizing the unique role of TCM Gongfa.

Objective To explore the application effect of a mobile learning platform for tumor diagnosis and treatment combined with the case-based learning method(CBL)in the standardized training of oncology residents.Methods Fifty-two 2022-level trainees who underwent the resident physician standardized training in the Oncology Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from August to December 2024 were selected as the research subjects.Using the random number table method,they were divided into the observation group and the control group,with 26 trainees in each group.The control group adopted the CBL teaching method,while the observation group adopted the tumor diagnosis and treatment mobile learning platform combined with the CBL teaching method.During the graduation assessment,the mastery degree of basic knowl-edge in the oncology specialty,the analysis ability of clinical cases,the performance level of clinical operation skills,and the sat-isfaction with the standardized training in oncology for the two groups of trainees were compared.Results The scores of the obser-vation group students in terms of their mastery of basic knowledge in oncology,their ability to analyze clinical cases,and their satis-faction with the oncology residency training teaching were[(84.42±3.43)points,(85.08±2.94)points,(7.50±1.03)points],which were significantly higher than those of the control group[(82.15±4.32)points,(82.12±3.82)points,(5.89±1.28)points](P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the clinical operation skills scores between the two groups of students(P＞0.05).Conclusion The application of our mobile learning platform for tumor diagnosis and therapy combined with CBL can effectively enhance the educational outcomes and satisfaction in medical oncology standardized residency training.

Objective:To analysis the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic total hysterectomy in patients with obliterated rectouterine pouch.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 197 patients who underwent laparoscopic total hysterectomy at Peking University First Hospital, from July 2022 to July 2024. According to intraoperative observations, 197 patients were categorized into two groups: 58 cases with completely obliterated rectouterine pouch (obliterated group) and 139 cases with non-obliterated pouch (control group). General clinical characteristics, perioperative outcomes and 3-month follow-up after surgery were compared between two groups.Results:(1) Baseline characteristics: the age of the obliterated group was (45.7±3.7) years, and the control group was (48.0±3.8) years ( P<0.001). Primary complaint: dysmenorrhea prevalence was 53.4% (31/58) in the obliterated group, and was 35.3% (49/139; P<0.05) in the control group. Surgical indications: the proportion of adenomyosis and ovarian endometrioma was 77.6% (45/58) in the obliterated group, and was 51.1% (71/139; P<0.001) in the control group. No significant differences in body mass index, pelvic surgical history, or preoperative medication between the two groups (all P>0.05). (2) Intraoperative outcomes: the obliterated group demonstrated significantly higher rates of surgical interventions compared to the control group. Superficial endometriosis resection was performed in 91.4% (53/58) of the obliterated group versus 33.8% (47/139) in the control group ( P<0.001). Deep infiltrating endometriosis excision was required in 82.8% (48/58) of the obliterated group, contrasting sharply with 10.1% (14/139) in the control group ( P<0.001). Ureterolysis procedures were similarly elevated in the obliterated group (77.6%, 45/58) compared to the control group (7.9%, 11/139; P<0.001). Operative metrics revealed substantial intergroup disparities: the obliterated group exhibited a median surgical duration of 149.0 minutes (interquartile range: 114.0, 180.0 minutes), significantly prolonged relative to the control group′s 91.0 minutes (77.0, 107.0 minutes; P<0.001). Estimated blood loss followed a parallel pattern, with median volumes of 50.0 ml (20.0, 100.0 ml) in the obliterated group versus 20.0 ml (10.0, 20.0 ml) in the control group ( P<0.001). (3) Postoperative outcomes: the uterine weight of the obliterated group was 200.0 g (132.5, 260.0 g), and the control group was 240.0 g (180.0, 336.0 g; P<0.05). Hospital stay was prolonged in the obliterated group compared with the control group [7.0 days (6.0, 8.3 days) vs 6.0 days (5.0, 7.0 days); P<0.001]. The incidences of postoperative fever in the obliterated group and the control group were 20.7% (12/58) vs 12.2% (17/139; P>0.05). The incidences of minor complications in the obliterated group and the control group were 3.4% (2/58) vs 0 (0/139; P>0.05). No major complications (intraoperative hemorrhage, transfusion, visceral injury, conversion to laparotomy, or thromboembolism) occurred. (4) Follow up at 3 months after surgery: three months postoperatively, all patients underwent outpatient follow-up visits, during which symptoms such as pain were alleviated. Gynecological ultrasound and pelvic examinations were performed, and the vaginal stump exhibited good healing. Conclusion:Laparoscopic total hysterectomy performed by experienced minimally invasive gynecological specialists is safe and feasible for patients with obliterated rectouterine pouch.

Objective:To discuss the prevalence of contraindications to progestogens in patients with endometriosis and adenomyosis.Methods:Women of childbearing age aged 15-49 years, except for menopausal and malignant tumors, were enrolled in Peking University First Hospital from April to August 2024 for laparoscopic or open surgery, regardless of whether they had used or would be using progestogen drugs. The patients were divided into two groups: the case group was patients with pathologically confirmed endometriosis and adenomyosis, and the control group was patients with other benign gynecological diseases. The patient′s medical history and clinical data were collected.Results:A total of 745 patients were enrolled, including 362 cases (48.6%, 362/745) in the case group, 383 cases (51.4%, 383/745) in the control group; 61 patients with contraindications to progestogens, including 32 cases (8.8%, 32/362) in the case group, and 29 cases (7.6%, 29/383) in the control group ( χ2=0.398, P>0.05). Among them, there were 33 cases of liver disease, all of which were liver tumor (hepatic hemangioma only), including 18 cases (5.0%, 18/362) in the case group and 15 cases (3.9%, 15/383) in the control group. There were 11 cases of sex hormone-dependent or related tumors (breast cancer only), including 4 cases (1.1%, 4/362) in the case group and 7 cases (1.8%, 7/383) in the control group. There were 10 cases of vascular disease, including 4 cases of diabetic vascular disease, including 2 cases (0.6%, 2/362) in the case group and 2 cases (0.5%, 2/383) in the control group. There were 3 cases of venous thrombosis, including 2 cases (0.6%, 2/362) in the case group and 1 case (0.3%, 1/383) in the control group. There were 3 cases of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, including 1 case in the case group (0.3%, 1/362) and 2 cases (0.5%, 2/383) in the control group. There were 7 cases of renal insufficiency, including 3 cases of chronic nephritis complicated with renal insufficiency [including 2 cases (0.6%, 2/362) in the case group and 1 case (0.3%, 1/383) in the control group]; two cases of membranous nephropathy complicated with renal insufficiency were in the case group (0.6%, 2/362); one case of diabetic nephropathy complicated with renal insufficiency was in the control group (0.3%, 1/383); one case of uremia was in the case group (0.3%, 1/362). There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusions:There is no difference in the contraindications of progestogens in patients with endometriosis and adenomyosis compared with patients with other gynecological benign diseases. Liver tumors are more common in both two groups.

Objective To investigate the role of p300 in lipid metabolism disorders.Methods Bioinformatics analysis was performed to analyze the expression patterns of p300 in lipid metabolism disorder-related diseases and its correlation with SREBP-1c and downstream lipid metabolic enzymes.Immunofluorescence assay was used to detect the expression of p300 in the liver tissues of the patients with varying disease severity of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD).A mouse model of lipid metabolism disorder was established in male C57BL/6J mice by feeding high-fat diet(HFD)for 12 weeks.Western blotting was employed to assess p300 expression level in the liver tissues of HFD-fed mice.A cell model of lipid metabolism disorder was established in HepG2/AML-12 cells induced with free fatty acid(FFA).The effects of siRNA-mediated knockdown of p300 was observed to measure the levels of intracellular total cholesterol(TC)and triglyceride(TG),lipid deposition,and production of reactive oxygen species(ROS).Results Clinically,p300 was highly expressed in lipid metabolism disorders,and its level was positively correlated with NAFLD severity(P<0.05).Gene Set Enrichment Analysis(GSEA)revealed that p300 expression was significantly associated with fatty acid metabolism,cholesterol homeostasis,lipogenesis,PPAR signaling pathway,and peroxisome pathway.In vivo,p300 was significantly up-regulated in the livers of HFD-fed mice(P<0.01).In vitro,FFA stimulation markedly increased p300 expression in both HepG2 and AML-12 cells(P<0.01),whereas p300 knockdown significantly reduced intracellular TG and TC levels(P<0.01),attenuated lipid droplet accumulation,and reversed FFA-induced ROS elevation(P<0.01).Furthermore,p300 expression was positively correlated with the expression of SREBP-1c and its downstream key lipid synthesis enzymes.Conclusion p300 may promote hepatic lipid accumulation by acetylating and activating SREBP-1c and regulating downstream lipid metabolic enzymes,thereby affecting lipid synthesis and oxidative stress.These findings suggest that p300 may be a potential therapeutic target for lipid metabolism disorder-related diseases.
