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 analyze the disease burden of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and changes in its risk factors among residents in Zhejiang Province from 1990 to 2021, so as to identify key priorities for COPD prevention and control. Methods: Data on COPD mortality and disability-adjusted life years (DALY) for residents in Zhejiang Province from 1990 to 2021 were collected from the Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2021 database. Standardized mortality and standardized DALY rate were calculated using the GBD 2021 world population standard structure. Premature mortality was computed via the life table method. The average annual percent change (AAPC) was applied to analyze trends in COPD mortality, DALY rate, and premature mortality. Changes in deaths of COPD risk factors were evaluated using population attributable fraction (PAF). Results: From 1990 to 2021, the standardized COPD mortality in Zhejiang Province decreased from 272.40/100 000 to 70.56/100 000 (AAPC=-4.395%), and the standardized DALY rate declined from 4 167.37/100 000 to 1 071.89/100 000 (AAPC=-4.396%). Similar downward trends were observed in both males (AAPC=-3.933%, -4.173%) and females (AAPC=-4.785%, -4.480%), all P<0.05. Crude mortality and DALY rates increased with age, and the crude mortality and DALY rates of various age groups in Zhejiang Province showed decreasing trends from 1990 to 2021 (all P<0.05). The premature mortality declined from 4.37% to 0.60% from 1990 to 2021 (AAPC=- 6.206%), with consistent trends across males and females (AAPC=- 6.144%, - 6.379%, all P<0.05). From 1990 to 2021, particulate matter pollution showed the largest reduction in PAF (- 56.76%), while ambient ozone pollution had the largest increase (103.07%) in Zhejiang Province. By 2021, smoking became the leading risk factor for deaths of COPD (PAF=43.32%). Conclusions The standardized mortality, standardized DALY rate, and premature mortality for COPD show consistent declining trends in Zhejiang Province from 1990 to 2021. However, risk factors such as smoking and ambient ozone pollution require intensified focus to further reduce disease burden of COPD.

BACKGROUND: Delayed platelet engraftment is a common complication after umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT), and there is no standard therapy. Avatrombopag (AVA) is a second-generation thrombopoietin (TPO) receptor agonist (TPO-RA) that has shown efficacy in immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). However, few reports have focused on its efficacy in patients diagnosed with thrombocytopenia after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). METHODS: We conducted a retrospective study at the First Affiliated Hospital of the University of Science and Technology of China to evaluate the efficacy of AVA as a first-line TPO-RA in 65 patients after UCBT; these patients were compared with 118 historical controls. Response rates, platelet counts, megakaryocyte counts in bone marrow, bleeding events, adverse events and survival rates were evaluated in this study. Platelet reconstitution differences were compared between different medication groups. Multivariable analysis was used to explore the independent beneficial factors for platelet implantation. RESULTS: Fifty-two patients were given AVA within 30 days post-UCBT, and the treatment was continued for more than 7 days to promote platelet engraftment (AVA group); the other 13 patients were given AVA for secondary failure of platelet recovery (SFPR group). The median time to platelet engraftment was shorter in the AVA group than in the historical control group (32.5 days vs . 38.0 days, Z  = 2.095, P  = 0.036). Among the 52 patients in the AVA group, 46 achieved an overall response (OR) (88.5%), and the cumulative incidence of OR was 91.9%. Patients treated with AVA only had a greater 60-day cumulative incidence of platelet engraftment than patients treated with recombinant human thrombopoietin (rhTPO) only or rhTPO combined with AVA (95.2% vs . 84.5% vs . 80.6%, P  <0.001). Patients suffering from SFPR had a slightly better cumulative incidence of OR (100%, P  = 0.104). Patients who initiated AVA treatment within 14 days post-UCBT had a better 60-day cumulative incidence of platelet engraftment than did those who received AVA after 14 days post-UCBT (96.6% vs . 73.9%, P  = 0.003). CONCLUSION Compared with those in the historical control group, our results indicate that AVA could effectively promote platelet engraftment and recovery after UCBT, especially when used in the early period (≤14 days post-UCBT).

The menopausal age is one of the important menopausal factors, and women of different menopausal ages have different risks of diabetes. This study reviewed the evidence from prospective studies on the association between the age at natural menopause and diabetes risk, both domestically and internationally, and presented its research design and main findings. Advanced menopause, especially premature and early menopause, will increase the risk of diabetes in postmenopausal women. The research on the influence of delayed menopause on the incidence of diabetes is still insufficient. Many factors may modify the association between menopausal age and the risk of diabetes.

Cerebral blood flow directly affects the metabolism of substances and neural activity in the brain, and is closely associated with the occurrence and development of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD). Multiple studies have revealed that various imaging biomarkers in patients with CSVD, such as lacunar infarction, enlarged perivascular spaces, cerebral microbleeds, cerebral atrophy, and white matter hyperintensities, are closely associated with cerebral autoregulation (CA) function. Therefore, understanding the regulatory mechanism of CA in patients with CSVD is of great significance for delaying the further development of CSVD, improving cerebral ischemia and cognitive impairment. This article reviews the correlation and mechanism between CA and CSVD.

Objective To investigate the clinical application value of combined pancreaticobiliary brushing under endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography(ERCP)in the treatment of hepatopancreatic ampulla malignant tumours.Methods We retrospectively analyzed 59 patients from January 2013 to December 2023 for ERCP treatment of hepatopancreatic ampulla tumours,and performed combined pancreaticobiliary brushing(combined pancreaticobiliary brushing group,n=10)and biliary duct brushing alone(biliary duct brushing group,n=49)respectively,then compared the positive pathological detection rate of hepatopancreatic ampulla malignant tumours,the magnitude of bilirubin reduction,and the occurrence of postoperative complications between the two groups.Results The positive detection rate of combined pancreaticobiliary brushing for diagnosing ampulla malignant tumours was 70.0％(7/10),and the positive detection rate of biliary duct brushing alone was 22.4％(11/49),and the positive detection rate of pathology in the two groups was statistically significant(P＜0.05);No significant statistical difference was observed in the decrease of bilirubin between the two groups(P＞0.05);There were three cases of post-operative complications in the biliary duct brushing group.There were no postoperative complications in the combined pancreaticobiliary brushing group.Conclusion Compared with bile duct brushing alone,combined pancreaticobiliary brushing is more helpful for the diagnosis of malignant tumours,and does not increase the incidence of complications.It is worthy for clinical application.

Objective To investigate the effect of human umbilical vein endothelial cells(HUVECs)on the proliferation and stem-ness of human dental pulp stem cells(hDPSCs)silencing with integrin α6(ITGA6).Methods ITGA6 silencing lentivirus was used to interfere the ITGA6 expression of hDPSCs,and its silencing efficiency was detected.Then HUVECs were added to the chambers to co-culture,and the experiments were divided into four groups(sh-NC,sh-ITGA6,sh-NC+HUVECs and sh-ITGA6+HUVECs).hDP-SCs in the sh-NC and sh-ITGA6 groups were transfected with sh-NC and sh-ITGA6 respectively.hDPSCs transfected with sh-NC and sh-ITGA6 were co-cultured with HUVECs in the sh-NC+HUVECs group and sh-ITGA6+HUVECs group respectively.The proliferation capacity of hDPSCs of each group was examined by CCK-8 and EdU on day 7.Immunofluorescence detected the expression of Stro-1,and Real-time PCR was used to detect the expression of Oct4 and Nanog.Results ①Fluorescence microscopy showed that the trans-fection efficiency was about 80％.Real-time PCR and Western blot results showed that sh-ITGA6 lentivirus effectively interfered with ITGA6 expression in hDPSCs.②CCK-8 results showed that on day 5 of co-culture,the proliferation ability of the sh-ITGA6+HUVECs group was superior to that of the sh-ITGA6 group(P＜0.05);on day 7,the proliferation ability of the sh-NC+HUVECs and sh-ITGA6+HUVECs group was superior to that of the sh-NC and sh-ITGA6 group(P＜0.05).EdU results showed that the DNA synthesis ability of hDPSCs in the co-culture group was significantly stronger than that in the single-culture group(P＜0.05).③Immunofluorescence stai-ning revealed that the expression of Stro-1 in the co-culture group was significantly stronger than that in the single-culture group.④Re-al-time PCR results showed that the expression of Oct4 in the co-culture group was higher than that in the single-culture group(P＜0.05);the expression of Nanog in hDPSCs with sh-ITGA6 was elevated by the addition of HUVECs co-culture(P＜0.05).Conclusion HUVECs significantly enhance the proliferation and stemness of hDPSCs silencing integrin α6.
