		                        			To implement the instructions and directives of General Secretary Xi Jinping on important documents related to traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), adhere to the equal emphasis on TCM and Western medicine, and promote mutual complementarity, win-win cooperation, and coordinated development between TCM and Western medicine, the China Association of Chinese Medicine has organized seminars on the clinical dominant diseases of TCM in multiple professional fields, achieving a series of results. The aim is to implement the research on dominant diseases of TCM described in the Law of the People's Republic of China on Traditional Chinese Medicine and the Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Promoting the Inheritance, Innovation and Development of Traditional Chinese Medicine, thus serving the construction of advantageous specialties, clinical talent cultivation, national scientific and technological layout, and academic innovation leadership. In the field of otolaryngology, the China Association of Chinese Medicine and many Chinese and Western medicine experts across the country have conducted multiple in-depth discussions and research. At the 10th Clinical Dominant Disease Series Youth Salon, they have elaborated and demonstrated the basic and specific suggestions and consensus on the clinical advantages of TCM and integrated TCM and Western medicine in the treatment of allergic rhinitis (AR), making great progress. However, there is still a lack of detailed research paths. Under the guidance of the China Association of Chinese Medicine and based on the TCM Dominant Disease Series Salon for AR, this study analyzed the difficulties encountered in AR diagnosis and treatment according to the occurrence and development law of AR. Based on the advantages and characteristics of AR diagnosis and treatment by TCM and integrated TCM and Western medicine, it explored the research paradigm and technological layout points of AR and put forward suggestions. The layout involved four aspects: Optimization of the AR diagnosis and treatment system, prevention and control of comorbidities, management of chronic diseases, and a platform for TCM inheritance. Additionally, suggestions for layout and research directions, expected goals and values, and priority levels for funding were proposed. The study is expected to provide a theoretical basis and development ideas for the future prevention and treatment of AR with TCM and integrated TCM and Western medicine and promote the high-quality development of TCM.

		                        			ObjectiveTo unveil the mechanism of Jianpi Huogu prescription (JPHGP) in ameliorating the dyslipidemia of steroid-induced osteonecrosis of the femur head (SONFH) by oxylipidomics combined with transcriptomics. MethodsSixty SD rats were assigned into normal, model, low-, medium-, and high-dose (2.5, 5, 10 g·kg-1, respectively) JPHGP, and Jiangushengwan (1.53 g·kg-1) groups. Lipopolysaccharide was injected into the tail vein at a dose of 20 μg·kg-1 on days 1 and 2, and methylprednisolone sodium succinate was injected at a dose of 40 mg·kg-1 into the buttock muscle on days 3 to 5. The normal group received an equal volume of normal saline. Drug administration by gavage began 4 weeks after the last injection, and samples were taken after administration for 8 weeks. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was conducted to reveal the histopathological changes of the femoral head, and the number of adipocytes, the rate of empty bone lacunae, and the trabecular area were calculated. Micro-computed tomography was used for revealing the histological and histomorphometrical changes of the femoral head. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was employed to measure the serum levels of triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), apolipoprotein A1 (ApoA1), and apolipoprotein B (ApoB). At the same time, the femoral head was collected for oxylipidomic and transcriptomic detection. The differential metabolites and differential genes were enriched and analyzed, and the target genes regulating lipid metabolism were predicted. The predicted target proteins were further verified by molecular docking, immunohistochemistry, and Western blot. ResultsCompared with the normal group, the model group showcased thinning of the femoral head, trabecular fracture, karyopyknosis, subchondral cystic degeneration, increases in the number of adipocytes and the rate of empty bone lacunae (P<0.01), a reduction in the trabecular area (P<0.01), decreases in BMD, Tb.Th, Tb.N, and BV/TV, and increases in Tb.Sp and BS/BV (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the JPHGP groups showed no obvious thinning of the femoral head or subchondroidal cystic degeneration. The high- and medium-dose JPHGP groups presented declines in the number of adipocytes and the rate of empty bone lacunae, an increase in the trabecular area (P<0.05, P<0.01), rises in BMD, Tb.Th, Tb.N, and BV/TV, and decreases in Tb.Sp and BS/BV (P<0.05, P<0.01). Compared with the normal group, the model group showcased raised serum levels of TG, TC, LDL, and ApoB and lowered serum levels of HDL and ApoA1 (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the JPHGP groups had lowered serum levels of TG, TC, LDL, and ApoB (P<0.05, P<0.01) and a risen serum level of ApoA1 (P<0.05, P<0.01). Moreover, the serum level of HDL in the high-dose JPHGP group increased (P<0.01). A total of 19 different metabolites of disease set and drug set were screened out by oxylipidomics of the femoral head, and 119 core genes with restored expression were detected by transcriptomics. The enriched pathways were mainly concentrated in inflammation, lipids, apoptosis, and osteoclast differentiation. Molecular docking, immunohistochemistry, and Western blot results showed that compared with the normal group, the model group displayed increased content of 5-lipoxygenase (5-LO) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) in the femoral head (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, medium- and high-dose JPHGP reduced the content of 5-LO and PPARγ (P<0.05, P<0.01). ConclusionJPHGP can restore the levels of oxidized lipid metabolites by regulating the 5-LO-PPARγ axis to treat SONFH in rats. Relevant studies provide experimental evidence for the efficacy mechanism of JPHGP in the treatment of SONFH.

		                        			ObjectiveTo investigate the characteristics of injury deaths and its disease burden in Taizhou City from 2009 to 2022, and to provide a basis for the prevention and control of injury. MethodsBased on the injury death surveillance data of Taizhou City from 2009 to 2022, the age-specific and sex-specific mortality rates, as well as the standardized mortality rates after adjusting China’s standardized population age of residents in Taizhou City were calculated. The crude mortality rate, standardized mortality rate, average years of life lost(AYLL), potential years of life lost (PYLL) and potential years of life lost rate (PYLLR) were calculated using Excel 2013 software. Joinpoint 4.2 software was used to estimate the annual percentage change (APC) and analyze the trends of injury mortality and PYLLR from 2009 to 2022. ResultsFrom 2009 to 2022, the standardized mortality rate of injuries in Taizhou City showed a decreasing trend (APC=-4.876%, P<0.001), with a mortality rate of 64.38/100 000 and a standardized mortality rate of 66.68/100 000. There was a statistically significant difference in injury deaths by genders (χ2=7 520.153, P<0.001). From 2009 to 2022, the PYLL and AYLL caused by injuries in Taizhou City were 587 518 person years and 21.91 years, respectively, with a PYLLR of 7.72%. The PYLLR of injuries showed a decreasing trend (APC=-7.454%, P<0.001), in addition, the PYLLR in urban(APC=-7.123%), rural areas (APC=-10.193%), males (APC=-7.595%) and females (APC=-7.046%) all showed a decreasing trend, all differences were statistically significant(all P<0.001). The top five causes of injury deaths leading to PYLL were traffic accident, drowning, accidental fall, suicide and accidental poisoning. ConclusionIn the last decade, injury has been a major cause leading to premature death among residents in Taizhou, with a higher mortality rate in males than that in females, and different injury characteristics caused by different types of injuries. It is necessary to take targeted injury prevention and intervention measures for different key population groups to effectively reduce the disease burden caused by injury deaths.

		                        			A 65-year-old male patient was admitted for recurrent lymph node enlargement for 5 years and elevated creatinine for 6 months. This patient was diagnosed with angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma 5 years ago and underwent multiple lines of anti-tumor therapy, including cytotoxic chemotherapy; epigenetic modifying drugs such as chidamide and azacitidine; the immunomodulator lenalidomide; and targeted therapy such as rituximab, a CD20-targeting antibody, and brentuximab vedotin, which targets CD30. Although the tumor was considered stable, multiple virus activation (including BK virus, JC virus, and cytomegalovirus) accompanied by the corresponding organ damage (polyomavirus nephropathy, cytomegalovirus retinitis, and progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy) occurred during anti-tumor treatment. Anti-tumor therapy was suspended and ganciclovir was used. The serum viral load decreased and organ functions were stabilized. The purpose of this report was to raise clinicians′ awareness of opportunistic virus reactivation during anti-tumor treatment.

		                        			Aural vertigo frequently encountered in the otolaryngology department of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) mainly involves peripheral vestibular diseases of Western medicine, such as Meniere's disease, benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, vestibular neuritis, and vestibular migraine, being a hot research topic in both TCM and Western medicine. Western medical therapies alone have unsatisfactory effects on recurrent aural vertigo, aural vertigo affecting the quality of life, aural vertigo not relieved after surgery, aural vertigo with complex causes, and children's aural vertigo. The literature records and clinical practice have proven that TCM demonstrates unique advantages in the treatment of aural vertigo. The China Association of Chinese medicine sponsored the "17th youth salon on the diseases responding specifically to TCM: Aural vertigo" and invited vertigo experts of TCM and Western medicine to discuss the difficulties and advantages of TCM diagnosis and treatment of aural vertigo. The experts deeply discussed the achievements and contributions of TCM and Western medicine in the diagnosis and treatment of aural vertigo, the control and mitigation of the symptoms, and the solutions to disease recurrence. The discussion clarified the positioning and advantages of TCM treatment and provided guidance for clinical and basic research on aural vertigo.

		                        			Objective:
		                        			To estimate the epidemic threshold and graded intensity thresholds of influenza in Zhejiang Province from 2012 to 2023 using the moving epidemic method (MEM), and evaluate the intensity of influenza epidemics, so as to provide the reference for influenza prevention and control in Zhejiang Province.
		                        		
		                        			Methods:
		                        			The positive rates of influenza virus per week during the influenza epidemic seasons (from 40th week to 20th week of the following year) in Zhejiang Province from 2012 to 2022 were collected through the Chinese Influenza Surveillance Information System. A MEM model was established and optimized using cross-validation. The maximum accumulated rates percentage was used to divide the epidemic into pre-epidemic, epidemic, and post-epidemic periods, and to estimate the epidemic thresholds and graded intensity thresholds. The intensity of influenza epidemics in Zhejiang Province during the 2022-2023 epidemic season were assessed.
		                        		
		                        			Results:
		                        			The positive rates of influenza virus in five epidemic seasons from 2012 to 2022 were included in the model. The MEM model performed best when the parameter δ was set to 1.5, with a sensitivity of 0.971, a specificity of 0.745, and a Youden's index of 0.716. According to the model analysis, the epidemic beginning and ending thresholds of influenza in Zhejiang Province during the 2022-2023 epidemic season were 19.32% and 10.92%, respectively, and the medium, high, and extremely high intensity thresholds were 48.65%, 63.49%, and 68.47%, respectively. During 2022-2023, the influenza epidemic was in the pre-epidemic period from the 40th week in 2022 to the 7th week in 2023; the epidemic period was from the 8th to the 18th week, the epidemic intensity was low in the 8th week and increased to a high level in the 9th week, and reached to a extremely high level from the 10th to the 13th week, then fell to the high and the medium level in the 14th week and 15th week, respectively, and fell to a low level from the 16th to the 18th week; the influenza epidemic entered the post-epidemic period since the 19th week.
		                        		
		                        			Conclusion
		                        			MEM could be applied for evaluation of influenza epidemic intensity, providing the reference for early identification and taking graded preventive and control measures.

		                        			ObjectiveTo analyze the failure of antiretroviral therapy (ART) and drug resistance characteristics among the newly reported HIV-infected patients in Taizhou City from 2020 to 2022. MethodsBlood samples, sociodemographic characteristics and ART information of the newly reported HIV-infected patients who received ART for ≥6 months in Taizhou City from 2020 to 2022 were collected for the detection of recent infections and HIV-1 genotypic drug resistance. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of treatment failure. The gene sequences of cases with failed ART were submitted to the HIV drug resistance database of Stanford University to determine the drug resistance mutation sites and drug resistance characteristics. ResultsAmong the 1 023 newly reported HIV-infected patients receiving ART, the median age (P25,P75) was 47 (33, 58) years, 81.4% were male, 66.4% (679/1 023) were infected through heterosexual transmission, 74.7% had a WHO clinical stage Ⅰ/Ⅱ, 62.2% had a baseline CD4 count of >200 cell·μL-1, 94.4% (966/1 023) received an immediate ART, and 78.7% were long-term infected. Among the 66 patients with treatment failure (6.5%), the likelihood of treatment failure was lower in those with homosexual transmission (OR=0.39, 95%CI: 0.17‒0.84) and without history of sexually transmitted disease (STD) (OR=0.45, 95%CI: 0.24‒0.92), but higher in those with a baseline CD4 count of ≤200 cell·μL-1, delayed ART (OR=3.19, 95%CI: 1.24‒7.52), and primary drug resistance (OR=4.69, 95%CI: 1.68‒11.89). Among the 36 HIV-infected patients with virological failure, 27 sequences were successfully amplified, with a successful amplification rate of 75.0% (27/36). The total drug resistance rate was 55.6% (15/27), of which the drug resistance rates of nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTIs), non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) and protease inhibitors (PIs) were 37.0% (10/27), 51.9% (14/27) and 3.7% (1/27), respectively. Among the NNRTIs, the degree of resistance to efavirenz and nevirapine was consistent, with a majority (51.9%) of highly drug-resistant. K103N and M184V were the most common mutation sites, but PIs mutations occured less frequently. A total of 8 genotypes of HIV-1 were detected, in which subtype CRF01_AE accounted for 37.0% (10/27), followed by CRF07_BC [14.8% (4/27)], CRF08_BC [14.8% (4/27)] and subtype C [14.8% (4/27)]. ConclusionDuring the period from 2020 to 2022, the newly reported HIV-infected individuals in Taizhou City were predominated by long-term infections. Immediate initiation of ART can reduce the risk of treatment failure in HIV-infected individuals. Virological treatment failures are primarily associated with resistance to NRTIs and NNRTIs. It is recommended to strengthen active detection and promptly initiate ART to minimize the occurrence of ART failure. Simultaneously, there is a need to intensify drug resistance detection targeted for those with treatment failure, so as to provide a scientific guidance for drug replacement.

		                        			Objective To analyze the relationship between the expression of serum DNA methyltransferase 1(DNMT1)messenger RNA(mRNA)and long non-coding RNA(LncRNA)urothelial carcinoembryonic antigen 1(UCA1)levels and pregnancy outcomes in patients with hypertensive disorder complicating pregnancy(HDCP).Methods A total of 195 HDCP patients treated in Handan Maternal and Child Health Hospital from March 2021 to August 2023 were selected as the case group,and 195 healthy pregnant women were regarded as the control group.Clinical data of all pregnant women were collected,and biochemical indicators were detected 1 day before delivery.Serum DNMT1 mRNA and LncRNA UCA1 levels were detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR.The case group was divided into pregnancy induced hypertension(PIH)group,mild preeclampsia(PE)group,and severe PE group based on their condition.HDCP patients were divided into good pregnancy outcome group and bad pregnancy outcome group according to the adverse pregnancy outcome at delivery.Clinical data,biochemical indexes,serum DNMT1 mRNA and LncRNA UCA1 levels were compared between control group and case group.The serum DNMT1 mRNA and LncRNA UCA1 levels of HDCP patients with different severity were compared.The clinical data,biochemical indexes,serum DNMT1 mRNA and LncRNA UCA1 levels of HDCP patients with different pregnancy outcomes were compared.The correlation between serum DNMT1 mRNA and LncRNA UCA1 in HDCP patients,factors affecting pregnancy outcomes in HDCP patients,and the predictive value of serum DNMT1 mRNA and LncRNA UCA1 in adverse pregnancy outcomes in HDCP patients were analyzed.Results Compared with control group,the levels of systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure and white blood cell count in case group were increased,while the levels of serum DNMT1 mRNA(0.72±0.18 vs 1.00±0.04)and LncRNA UCA1(0.61±0.16 vs 1.00±0.02)were decreased,and the differences were statistically significant(t=40.651,32.595,7.837,21.205,33.775,all P<0.001).Serum DNMT1 mRNA(0.85±0.20,0.74±0.18,0.50±0.15)and LncRNA UCA1(0.77±0.18,0.58±0.16,0.43±0.13)levels in PIH group,mild PE group and severe PE group were decreased successively,and the differeences were statistically significant(F=52.687,64.030,all P<0.001).Serum DNMT1 mRNA in HDCP patients was positively correlated with LncRNA UCA1(r=0.582,P<0.001).Compared with good pregnancy outcome group,the severity of HDCP,systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure and white blood cell count were increased in the bad pregnancy outcome group,and the serum DNMT1 mRNA(0.80±0.20 vs 0.59±0.15)and LncRNA UCA1(0.72±0.17 vs 0.43±0.14)levels were decreased,and the differences were statistically significant(x2=18.386,t=2.615~12.290,all P<0.05).Severe PE[OR(95%CI)=1.708(1.193~2.445)],systolic blood pressure[OR(95%CI)=1.495(1.090~2.049)]and diastolic blood pressure[OR(95%CI)=1.621(1.076~2.442)]were risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes in HDCP patients,while DNMT1 mRNA[OR(95%CI)=0.833(0.725~0.957)]and LncRNA UCA1[OR(95%CI)=0.796(0.696~0.909)]were protective factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes in HDCP patients(all P<0.05).The area under curve(AUC)predicted by the combination of DNMT1 mRNA and LncRNA UCA1 for adverse pregnancy outcomes in HDCP patients was greater than that predicted by DNMT1 mRNA alone and LncRNA UCA1 alone(0.926 vs 0.832,0.844),and the differences were statistically significant(Z=2.932,2.345,all P<0.05).Conclusion Both serum DNMT1 mRNA and LncRNA UCA1 levels are low in HDCP patients,which is related to the degree of disease and pregnancy outcome.DNMT1 mRNA combined with LncRNA UCA1 detection may have a better predictive effect on adverse pregnancy outcome.
