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.

Wumei Pills is mostly used to treat ulcerative colitis, irritable bowel syndrome, intestinal polyps, chronic atrophic gastritis, gastroesophageal reflux disease, gastric cancer and other digestive system diseases with its modified formula or combination with Western medicine. Wumei Pills can play a role in treating digestive system diseases through antioxidant stress, Inhibiting inflammatory response, regulating intestinal flora, anti-tumor, promoting intestinal mucosal repair, etc. Most of the related research on the mechanism of Wumei Pills in the treatment of digestive system diseases were studied in a single pathway. The relationship between other mechanisms and pathways is worthy of further exploration. In addition, the current research mostly focuses on the lower digestive system diseases with diarrhea as the main manifestation, and there is still room for research and reporting in the treatment of upper digestive system diseases.

Background::Liver cancer is largely resistant to chemotherapy. This study aimed to identify the effective chemotherapeutics for β-catenin-activated liver cancer which is caused by gain-of-function mutation of catenin beta 1 ( CTNNB1), the most frequently altered proto-oncogene in hepatic neoplasms. Methods::Constitutive β-catenin-activated mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) were established by deleting exon 3 ( β-cateninΔ(ex3)/+ ), the most common mutation site in CTNNB1 gene. A screening of 12 widely used chemotherapy drugs was conducted for the ones that selectively inhibited β-cateninΔ(ex3)/+ but not for wild-type MEFs. Untargeted metabolomics was carried out to examine the alterations of metabolites in nucleotide synthesis. The efficacy and selectivity of methotrexate (MTX) on β-catenin-activated human liver cancer cells were determined in vitro. Immuno-deficient nude mice subcutaneously inoculated with β-catenin wild-type or mutant liver cancer cells and hepatitis B virus ( HBV); β-cateninlox(ex3)/+ mice were used, respectively, to evaluate the efficacy of MTX in the treatment of β-catenin mutant liver cancer. Results::MTX was identified and validated as a preferential agent against the proliferation and tumor formation of β-catenin-activated cells. Boosted nucleotide synthesis was the major metabolic aberration in β-catenin-active cells, and this alteration was also the target of MTX. Moreover, MTX abrogated hepatocarcinogenesis of HBV; β-cateninlox(ex3)/+ mice, which stimulated concurrent Ctnnb1-activated mutation and HBV infection in liver cancer. Conclusion::MTX is a promising chemotherapeutic agent for β-catenin hyperactive liver cancer. Since repurposing MTX has the advantages of lower risk, shorter timelines, and less investment in drug discovery and development, a clinical trial is warranted to test its efficacy in the treatment of β-catenin mutant liver cancer.

Objective To detect the biomarkers closely related to oxidative stress and antioxidant defense mechanisms[superoxide dismutase(SOD),glutathione peroxidase(GSH-PX)and malondialdehyde(MDA)]in neonatal rats Changes in different treatment regimens for hypoxic-ischemic brain injury in rats,and explore the antioxidant effect of hydrogen.Methods HIE animal model was made from 7-day-old newborn SD rats,and then randomly divided into sham operation group,control group,test group 1(saturated hydrogen saline group),test group 2(mild hypothermia group),and test group 3(combination group).Experimental group 1 was intrap-eritoneally injected with saturated hydrogen saline after modeling;experimental group 2 was treated with mild hypothermia after modeling;experimental group 3 was treated with mild hypothermia combined with injection of saturated hydrogen saline after modeling.The control group only had modeling,and the sham operation group did not.For special treatment,10 rats from each group were decapitated 1day,3days,and 7days after modeling,and brain tissue was collected to detect the concentrations of SOD,GSH-PX,and MDA.Results In the control group,the expression levels of SOD and GSH-PX decreased on the 1st day after modeling,became more obvious on the 3rd day,and increased somewhat on the 7th day.The expression of MDA increased,became more obvious on the 3rd day,and decreased somewhat on the 7th day,which was similar to that of the sham operation.The comparisons between groups at each stage were statistically significant(P＜0.05),and the expression levels of SOD and GSH-PX in experimental groups 1 and 2 at the three stages after modeling were higher than those in the control group and lower than those in experimental groups 3 and 2.In the sham operation group,the MDA expression levels were lower than those in the control group and higher than those in the experimental group 3 and the sham operation group,with statistical significance(P＜0.05).There was no statistical significance in the comparison between experimental group 1 and experimental group 2 at each stage(P＞0.05).Conclusion Saturated hydrogen saline treatment can protect neonatal rats from hypoxic-ischemic brain injury to a certain extent by reducing the level of oxidative stress in the body,while the protective effect of mild hypothermia combined with hydrogen treatment on HIE is time-sensitive.

Established in 2017, the Screening Cohort for Asian Nomadic descendants in China (Scan-China) has benefited over 180,000 members of a multi-ethnic population, particularly individuals of Mongolian descent compared with the general population (Han ethnicity), in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China. This cohort study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of cancer screening and serve as a real-world data platform for cancer studies. The 6 most prevalent cancers in China are considered—namely, breast, lung, colorectal, gastric, liver and esophageal cancer. After baseline cancer risk assessments and screening tests, both active and passive follow-up (based on the healthcare insurance database, cancer registry, the front page of hospital medical records, and death certificates) will be conducted to trace participants’ onset and progression of cancers and other prevalent chronic diseases. Scan-China has preliminarily found a disproportionately lower screening participation rate and higher incidence/mortality rates of esophageal and breast cancer among the Mongolian population than among their Han counterparts. Further research will explore the cancer burden, natural history, treatment patterns, and risk factors of the target cancers.

Objective: To analyze the distribution feature of occupational pneumoconiosis in Sichuan Province. Methods: The cases of newly diagnosed occupational pneumoconiosis from 2012 to 2021 in Sichuan Province were collected from the Occupational Diseases and Hazards Monitoring Information System under China Disease Prevention and Control Information System, and were analyzed retrospectively. Results: From 2012 to 2021, there were 30 136 newly diagnosed occupational pneumoconiosis cases in Sichuan Province. The average age of patients was 55.2 years and the median work age was 12.1 years. There were 6 471 cases (accounting for 21.5%) exposed to dust for less than 5.0 years. The number of the cases declined in newly diagnosed occupational pneumoconiosis and occupational pneumoconiosis with less than 5.0 years of dust exposure. The numbers of coal workers' pneumoconiosis and silicosis were 16 210 and 13 577, respectively (accounting for 98.9% of the total cases). The majority of pneumoconiosis cases were classified as stage Ⅰ(accounting for 67.1%). The cases from Leshan City, Bazhong City, Dazhou City, Yibin City, Guangyuan City and Luzhou City accounted for 68.8% of the total cases. The main types of work were coal miner and excavation worker, which accounted for 31.7% and 18.8%, respectively. The scale of enterprises was mostly small and micro, accounting for 35.1% of the cases, and the industry distribution was mostly coal mining and washing, accounting for 53.4% of the cases. Conclusion: In Sichuan Province, the number of cases shows an overall decline in both newly diagnosed occupational pneumoconiosis and occupational pneumoconiosis with less than 5.0 years of dust exposure, with a relatively short duration of occupational exposure. The key cities for pneumoconiosis prevention and control are Leshan City, Bazhong City, and Dazhou City, while the key industry is coal mining and washing.
