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.

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are pivotal mediators of intercellular communication within the tumor immune microenvironment (TME). They are broadly categorized into exosomes, microvesicles, and apoptotic bodies based on their distinct biogenesis pathways. Exosomes originate from the endosomal system via multivesicular body fusion, microvesicles bud directly from the plasma membrane, and apoptotic bodies are released during programmed cell death. By shuttling diverse bioactive cargoes—including proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids such as mRNA, miRNA, and DNA—EVs exert dual modulatory effects on tumor initiation, progression, and immune evasion. Importantly, EVs exhibit remarkable compositional heterogeneity that is intrinsically linked to their cellular origin. Tumor-derived EVs (TDEVs) are typically enriched with immunosuppressive molecules like PD-L1, TGF‑β, and miR-21, which promote tumor immune escape and metastasis. In contrast, EVs derived from immune cells, such as dendritic cells or cytotoxic T lymphocytes, often carry immunostimulatory components including antigens, co-stimulatory molecules, and granzymes, thereby potentiating anti-tumor immunity. This review systematically delineates the biogenesis and molecular composition of EVs, with a particular emphasis on their dynamic regulatory functions within the TME. Specifically, we discuss how EVs mediate intricate crosstalk between immune and tumor cells, facilitating signal transfer that reshapes immune surveillance. For instance, TDEVs can induce macrophage polarization toward an M2-like pro-tumor phenotype, while also suppressing natural killer cell cytotoxicity and dendritic cell maturation. The clinical utility of EV-associated biomarkers in liquid biopsy is increasingly recognized. Circulating EVs carry tumor-specific molecular signatures that mirror the genetic and proteomic alterations of primary tumors, enabling non-invasive early diagnosis, molecular subtyping, and real-time monitoring of therapeutic responses. Their natural biocompatibility, low immunogenicity, and intrinsic ability to traverse biological barriers make them ideal candidates for drug delivery systems. This review explores cutting-edge applications, including the use of EVs in immune checkpoint blockade therapy—for instance, engineered EVs displaying anti-PD-1 antibodies or carrying siRNA to silence immunosuppressive genes. Moreover, EV-based tumor vaccines are being developed, leveraging dendritic cell-derived EVs loaded with tumor antigens to elicit potent T cell responses. The feasibility of loading EVs with therapeutic molecules such as chemotherapeutic agents, oncolytic viruses, or CRISPR-Cas9 components is also under active investigation. The advent of engineered EVs has further expanded their therapeutic potential. Through surface modification or cargo encapsulation, EVs can be tailored for targeted delivery and controlled release, enhancing precision immunotherapy. However, several hurdles impede clinical translation. Current isolation and purification methods, such as ultracentrifugation and size-exclusion chromatography, suffer from low yield and purity. Distinguishing EV subpopulations remains technically challenging due to overlapping size and marker expression. Moreover, the lack of standardized protocols for EV production, characterization, and quality control poses significant barriers to regulatory approval and clinical adoption. Looking forward, the convergence of multi-omics technologies with artificial intelligence offers a powerful approach to decipher EV heterogeneity and identify robust diagnostic signatures. Machine learning algorithms can integrate proteomic, transcriptomic, and lipidomic data from large patient cohorts to construct predictive models for cancer diagnosis and prognosis. Concurrently, advances in bioengineering are enabling the design of next-generation EVs with enhanced targeting specificity, on-demand drug release, and reduced off-target effects. Future efforts should also focus on establishing good manufacturing practice (GMP)‑compliant production processes and conducting rigorous preclinical and clinical evaluations. In summary, this review provides a comprehensive overview of EV biology, their multifaceted roles in the TME, and their transformative potential in cancer diagnostics and therapeutics. By addressing current challenges and leveraging emerging technologies, EV-based strategies are poised to revolutionize precision oncology.

OBJECTIVE To formulate Guidelines for the standardized implementation of pharmacist-managed clinics （ 2026 edition ） in response to the challenges faced by such clinics in China， including uneven development， large discrepancies in service specifications， insufficient patient awareness， and limited medical insurance coverage. METHODS Led by the Pharmaceutical Affairs Professional Committee of the Chinese Hospital Association， the Evidence-based Pharmacy Professional Committee of the Chinese Pharmaceutical Association， and the Hospital Pharmacy Professional Committee of the Cross-strait Medical and Health Exchange Association， a total of 19 domestic hospital pharmacy experts were organized. Through a systematic review of national policies and literature research， current practical experience was summarized. Consensus on the contents of the guidelines was reached after in-depth discussions. RESULTS &CONCLUSIONS The guidelines covered five sections： definition and connotation of pharmacist-managed clinics， establishment requirements， implementation and management， post competency， and practical research. Firstly， the definition and connotation included three operational forms of pharmacist-managed clinics （independent mode， physician-pharmacist joint mode， and online pharmacist-managed clinic mode） and classified service modes （specialty-specific， drug-specific， and disease-specific pharmacist-managed clinics）. The establishment requirements were further refined， covering system construction （pharmaceutical service management system， quality control and assessment mechanism）， personnel qualifications （professional credentials， continuing education and professional training， etc）， service recipients， as well as service venues and facilities. Subsequently， the implementation and management of pharmacist-managed clinics were proposed， involving service procedures， intervention measures， documentation and records， patient education and follow-up， humanistic care， as well as risk management and quality control. Finally， post competency encompassed the competency requirements for pharmacists providing services in pharmacist-managed clinics， as well as the suggestions on teaching methods； practical research encouraged the conduct of high-quality pharmaceutical practice in the setting of pharmacist-managed clinics. The guidelines provide valuable guidance for the standardized implementation of pharmacist-managed clinics in China in terms of establishment， management， teaching， and research， fill the guideline gap in this field， and can promote the high-quality development of pharmacist-managed clinics.

Objective: To investigate the protective effects and underlying mechanisms of sodium pyruvate (SP) on RBC storage lesions using an oxidative damage model. Methods: Six units of leukocyte-depleted suspended RBCs (discarded for non-infectious reasons within three days post-collection) were randomly assigned to four groups: negative control (NS), positive control (PS), experimental group 1 (SP1), and experimental group 2 (SP2). Oxidative stress was induced in the PS group by the addition of hydrogen peroxide (H O ), while SP1 and SP2 received SP supplementation at different concentrations (25 mM and 50 mM, respectively) in the presence of H O . After 1 hour of incubation, RBC morphology was assessed microscopically, and biochemical indicators including glutathione (GSH), malondialdehyde (MDA), methemoglobin (MetHb), adenosine triphosphate (ATP), and Na /K -ATPase activity were measured. Results: RBCs in the PS group exhibited pronounced morphological damage, including cell shrinkage and echinocyte formation, whereas both SP-treated groups showed significantly reduced structural injury. SP treatment led to elevated GSH levels and decreased concentrations of MDA and MetHb, suggesting attenuation of oxidative stress. Additionally, SP enhanced intracellular ATP levels and Na /K -ATPase activity, thereby contributing to membrane stability. Notably, the SP2 group (50 mM) demonstrated superior protective effects compared to SP1 (25 mM). Conclusion: Sodium pyruvate effectively attenuates oxidative storage lesions in RBCs, primarily through its antioxidant properties, energy metabolism supporting ability, and celluar membrane stabilizing function. These findings suggest SP as a promising additive for enhancing the quality and safety of stored RBCs.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), as a treasure of the Chinese nation, plays a significant role in maintaining public health. In 2019, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council proposed for the first time the establishment of a TCM registration and evaluation evidence system that integrates TCM theory, "personal experience" and clinical trials (referred to as the "Three-in-One" System) to promote the inheritance and innovation of TCM. Subsequently, the National Medical Products Administration issued several guiding principles to advance the improvement and implementation of this system. Owing to the complexity of its implementation, there are still differing understandings within the TCM industry regarding the positioning of the "Three-in-One" Registration and Evaluation Evidence System, as well as the connotation and value orientation of the "personal experience." To address this, Academician WANG Qi, President of the TCM Association, China International Exchange and Promotion Association for Medical and Healthcare and TCM master, led a group of academicians, TCM masters, TCM pharmacology experts and clinical TCM experts to convene a "Seminar on Promoting the Implementation of the ′Three-in-One′ Registration and Evaluation Evidence System for Chinese Medicinals." Through extensive discussions, an expert consensus was formed, clarifying the different roles of the TCM theory, "personal experience" and clinical trials within the system. It was further emphasized that the "personal experience" is the core of this system, and its data should be derived from clinical practice scenarios. In the future, the improvement of this system will require collaborative efforts across multiple fields to promote the high-quality development of the Chinese medicinal industry.

Objective To investigate the current status of family resilience of children with cancer and analyze its influencing factors,to provide a basis for medical staff to formulate intervention plans.Methods Using a convenient sampling method,children with cancer who were hospitalized in 2 tertiary hospitals in Henan Province from January to April 2024 were selected for the survey.A general information questionnaire,family resilience assessment scale,quality of life family version,ZBI caregiver burden interview,and social support rating scale were used to understand the current status of family resilience of children with cancer and to explore the related influencing factors by univariate analysis and multiple stepwise linear regression analysis.Results A total of 280 questionnaires were distributed and 265 valid questionnaires were recovered,with a valid questionnaire recovery rate of 94.64％.The total score of family resilience for primary caregivers of children with cancer was(185.63±30.66).The multiple stepwise linear regression analysis results showed that the children's self-care ability,caregiver's work status,family care burden,and social support level were the influencing factors for family resilience of children with cancer(P＜0.05),and the explanatory variance was 51.3％.Conclusion The family resilience of children with cancer is at a medium level.The worse the children's self-care ability and the heavier the family care burden,the worse the family resilience;the caregiver's work status and good social support are helpful for the family resilience of children with cancer.Healthcare workers should develop intervention programs to address these factors to enhance the family resilience of children with cancer.

Objective To investigate the antimicrobial resistance patterns of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP)strains isolated from children for better prevention,treatment,and control of CRKP infections in children.Methods A total of 182 clinical CRKP strains were collected between January 2018 and December 2020 in Hebei Children's Hospital.All CRKP strains were identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight(MALDI-TOF)mass spectrometry.The common carbapenemase genes(blaKPC,blaNDM,blaIMP,blaVIM,blaOXA-48)of CRKP isolates were studied by PCR.Multilocus sequence typing(MLST)was performed for homology analysis.Results The 182 children infected with CRKP were mainly infants(＞28 days to＜1 years),accounting for 49.45％(90/182),followed by newborns(≤28 days),accounting for 36.26％(66/182).The main source of the 182 CRKP isolates was sputum(50.55％,92/182),blood(15.93％,29/182),and urine(13.19％,24/182).The strains were mainly isolated from patients in neonatology(30.22％,55/182),general surgery(21.43％,39/182),cardiac surgery(13.19％,24/182),and intensive care unit(11.54％,21/182).Antimicrobial susceptibility testing showed that all of the 182 CRKP strains were resistant to cefepime,ceftazidime,piperacillin-tazobactam,and cefoperazone-sulbactam(100％).Overall,97.8％,71.4％,81.9％,75.8％,69.2％,and 2.7％of the strains were resistant to aztreonam,amikacin,ciprofloxacin,levofloxacin,doxycycline,and tigecycline,respectively.The prevalence of carbapenemase gene blaKPC-2 was the highest(73.63％,134/182),followed by blaNDM-5(15.38％,28/182),and blaNDM-1(11.54％,21/182).A total of 15 different sequence types(ST)were identified by MLST,of which ST11 was the most common type(72.53％,132/182),followed by ST17(11.54％,21/182).Conclusions CRKP isolates in Hebei Children's Hospital showed high level resistance to antimicrobial agents.Antimicrobial therapy should be prescribed cautiously according to the results of antimicrobial susceptibility testing to avoid the emergence of resistant strains.KPC-2-producing ST1 1 type CRKP strains may be prevalent in this hospital.Effective control measures should be taken to avoid further spread of such CRKP strains.

Objective:To investigate the effect of curcumin on blood glucose levels in pregnant women at high risk of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus(GDM).Methods:One hundred and twenty-four pregnant women with high-risk factors for GDM were included in a cross-sectional study according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria.After undergoing an Oral Glucose Tolerance Test,participants were divided into the GDM group(n=61)and the non-GDM group(n=63).Subsequently,a randomized controlled trial was performed to compare Fasting Plasma Glucose(FPG)levels between the control group(n=8)and the intervention group(n=8).Results:The cross-sectional study revealed that the GDM group had significantly higher rates of pre-pregnancy BMI ≥ 24 kg/m2,early pregnancy HbA1c≥5.7％,impaired fasting glucose or glucose tolerance,and lack of exercise compared to the non-GDM group(P＜0.05).FPG levels in the GDM group were significantly higher than those in the non-GDM group at all stages of pregnancy.Multivariable linear regression analysis showed that the impact of high-risk factors on FPG gradually diminished as pregnancy progressed.In the randomized controlled experiment,all cases in the control group developed GDM;one case in the curcumin intervention group did not,whose intervention time was the earliest and longest.Pearson correlation analysis indicated a positive correlation between the duration of curcumin intervention and changes in FPG values,although the correlation was not statistically significant(P＞0.05).By the descriptive statistical analysis,within-group comparisons showed no significant differences in the median and percentiles of FPG values between the control group in late pregnancy and early pregnancy.However,the median and percentiles of FPG values were significantly lower post-intervention compared to curcumin pre-intervention.Between-group comparisons revealed that the mean FPG in the curcumin intervention group decreased significantly more than in the control group.These results suggested that curcumin might have a potential impact on FPG.No significant differences were observed in neonatal outcomes between the curcumin intervention and control groups.Conclusions:Pregnant women with high risk factors for GDM should be paid enough attention in clinical practice.All these results have demonstrated that curcumin has a positive regulatory effect on FPG in patients with GDM,which may provide a new adjunctive method for the treatment of GDM.

Objective:To explore the effect of multiple modified process management intervention on cardiac func-tion,psychological state,stress level,sleep quality and adverse events in patients with severe coronary atherosclerot-ic heart disease(CHD).Methods:This randomized controlled study enrolled 130 severe CHD patients who were treated in Affiliated Beijing Shijitan Hospital of Capital Medical University between January 2020 and May 2023.Patients were randomly divided into control group(n=65)and intervention group(n=65).Patients in the control group were treated with routine management intervention,while those in the intervention group were given addi-tional multiple modified process management interventions.Both groups were intervened for 4 weeks.Cardiac func-tion,levels of norepinephrine(NE)and cortisol(COR),scores of Self-rating Anxiety Scale(SAS),Self-rating Depression Scale(SDS),General Comfort Questionnaire(GCQ),Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index(PSQI),and the incidence of adverse events during intervention were compared between the two groups.Results:Compared to those in control group after intervention,patients in intervention group had significant higher left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)[(57.81±2.15)％vs.(50.11±2.99)％]and GCQ score[(95.88±5.37)points vs.(75.81±6.67)points](P＜0.001 all),and significant lower left ventricular end-diastolic volume(LVEDV)[(109.81±5.37)ml vs.(129.26±5.17)ml],left ventricular end-systolic volume(LVESV)[(50.85±3.08)ml vs.(66.02±3.77)ml],levels of NE[(61.56±5.49)pg/ml vs.(69.86±5.03)pg/ml],COR[(85.63±5.19)ng/ml vs.(92.28±6.57)ng/ml],scores of SAS[(30.06±5.19)points vs.(49.51±5.85)points],SDS[(31.86±4.51)points vs.(40.00±5.10)points]and PSQI[(8.72±1.58)points vs.(13.89±2.40)points],and incidence of ad-verse events(4.69％vs.23.44％)(P＜0.01 all).Conclusion:The multiple modified process management interven-tion may improve the cardiac function,adverse psychological state,stress level,sleep quality and reduce the inci-dence of adverse events in patients with severe CHD.

Objective To investigate the effects of γ-glutamyl hydrolase(GGH)rs11545078 C＞T polymorphisms on serum concentrations,chemotherapy toxicities of methotrexate(MTX),and prognosis in children with intracranial tumors.Methods Peripheral blood samples were obtained from children with intracranial tumors to extract genome DNA.Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry was used to detect the genotypes of GGH rs11545078 C＞T polymorphisms.Fluorescence polarization immunoassay was employed to determine the serum concentrations of MTX.The incidences of toxicities,relapse,and metastasis were recorded after chemotherapy with MTX.The associations of GGH rs11545078 C＞T polymorphisms with concentration-to-dose ratios(C/D ratios),chemotherapy toxicities of MTX,relapse,and metastasis of tumors were analyzed.Results A total of 75 children were included in the present study.The frequencies of rs11545078 CC and CT genotypes were 82.67％and 17.33％,respectively.The frequencies of C and T alleles were 91.33％and 8.67％,respectively.There were no statistically significant differences for these frequencies among the children with intracranial tumors,the children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia,and the health population in Beijing.Children with the CC genotype had higher median C/D ratios of MTX in 24 and 42 h(25.19 and 0.14 μmol·L-1 per g·m-2,respectively),higher metastasis rates(46.77％),and lower relapse rates(17.74％)than those in CT genotype carriers(22.01 and 0.11 μmol·L-1 per g·m-2,38.46％,and 30.77％,respectively),and the differences were no statistically significant(all P＞0.05).The incidences of gastrointestinal disorders(76.92％)in children with the CT genotype were significantly higher than those in CC genotype carriers(45.16％,P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the incidences of other adverse events between patients with the CC genotype and patients with the CT genotype(all P＞0.05).Conclusion GGH rs11545078 CT might be a risk factor for gastrointestinal disorders in children with intracranial tumors treated with MTX.
