To implement the Opinions of the State Council of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Promoting the Inheritance and Innovative Development of Traditional Chinese Medicine， delve into the diseases specifically responding to traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， and serve the building of advantageous specialties， clinical talent cultivation， national research layout， and academic innovation， the Chinese Association of Chinese Medicine sponsored the salons in multiple fields to discuss the diseases specifically responding to TCM. On August 26， 2023， the 25^th salon on the diseases specifically responding to TCM was held in Shanghai. In view of the advantages of TCM and integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine in the diagnosis and treatment of psoriasis， Chinese and western medicine experts and interdisciplinary researchers carried out extensive and in-depth discussions and formed specific suggestions and consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of psoriasis with TCM and integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine. However， there was still a lack of detailed research path. Under the guidance of the Chinese Association of Chinese Medicine， this paper analyzes the problems in the diagnosis and treatment of psoriasis from the occurrence and development of psoriasis. According to the advantages and characteristics of TCM and integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine in the diagnosis and treatment of psoriasis， this paper puts forward the main points of research layout for psoriasis from the three aspects of psoriasis diagnosis and treatment， comorbidity prevention， and chronic disease management as follows： ① optimization of the syndrome differentiation system for psoriasis， ② optimization of assessment indicators for psoriasis， ③ recurrence mechanisms of psoriasis， ④ construction and research of TCM prevention and treatment of psoriasis recurrence， ⑤ construction of the comorbidity spectrum and TCM theoretical system of psoriasis， ⑥ comorbidity mechanisms of psoriasis. Furthermore， this article proposed the research layout and directions， expected goals and values， and funding priorities. Therefore， on the basis of the series of salons about psoriasis as a disease specifically responding to TCM， this article puts forward the research paradigm of psoriasis， aiming to facilitate the high-quality development of TCM and provide reference for the national research layout， the research and development of new TCM preparations， the selection of research topics， and the formulation of guidelines and consensus.

Objective:To explore the protective effect and mechanism of active vitamin D against kidney disease induced by insulin resistance(IR) and its underlying mechanisms.Methods:Male SD rats were divided into three groups: normal control group(group C), simple high-fat group(group HF), and high-fat with active vitamin D group(group VD). Differences of serum biochemical indicators, renal tissue cell morphology, Toll-like receptor (TLR)4-(myeloid differentiation factor, MyD)88-NF-κB inflammatory response pathway expression in mRNA and protein levels were compared among different groups.Results:Rats in group HF showed significant IR, higher serum levels of cystatin C, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, triglycerides, low density lipoprotein-cholesterol, and C-reactive protein compared to group C. Rats in group VD demonstrated significant improvements in these indicators compared with group HF. Compared with rats in group C, the morphology of renal glomeruli and tubules in group HF was abnormal, with a large number of inflammatory cells infiltrating the renal interstitium. The situation in group VD was significantly improved compared with group HF. The results of real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR, immunohistochemistry, and western blot showed higher TLR4, MyD88, and NF-κB levels in the renal tissues of group HF than those in group C. The levels of the above indicators in group VD were lower than those in group HF.Conclusion:The results of this study suggest that TLR4-MyD88-NF-κB inflammatory response pathway play an important role in the pathogenesis of IR nephropathy, and supplementing with active vitamin D can protect the kidneys of IR rats by downregulating the TLR4-mediated inflammatory response pathway. Future basic and clinical research should focus on IR nephropathy to provide more insights and evidence for prevention and treatment.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75％(27/36);boys accounted for 64％(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86％)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53％)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61％)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36％)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75％)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72％)and seizures in 10 neonates(34％).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33％,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44％(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD)in twin preterm infants with a gestational age of<34 weeks,and to provide a basis for early identification of BPD in twin preterm infants in clinical practice.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for the twin preterm infants with a gestational age of<34 weeks who were admitted to 22 hospitals nationwide from January 2018 to December 2020.According to their conditions,they were divided into group A(both twins had BPD),group B(only one twin had BPD),and group C(neither twin had BPD).The risk factors for BPD in twin preterm infants were analyzed.Further analysis was conducted on group B to investigate the postnatal risk factors for BPD within twins.Results A total of 904 pairs of twins with a gestational age of<34 weeks were included in this study.The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that compared with group C,birth weight discordance of>25%between the twins was an independent risk factor for BPD in one of the twins(OR=3.370,95%CI:1.500-7.568,P<0.05),and high gestational age at birth was a protective factor against BPD(P<0.05).The conditional logistic regression analysis of group B showed that small-for-gestational-age(SGA)birth was an independent risk factor for BPD in individual twins(OR=5.017,95%CI:1.040-24.190,P<0.05).Conclusions The development of BPD in twin preterm infants is associated with gestational age,birth weight discordance between the twins,and SGA birth.

Objective To analyze the status and gene subtype distribution of human papillomavirus(HPV)infec-tion in male patients in dermatology outpatient department,provide reference for the prevention and treatment of male HPV infection.Methods Male patients who visited and conducted HPV detection in the dermatology outpa-tient department of a hospital from January 2022 to March 2023 were retrospectively surveyed.Patients were divi-ded into five groups:viral warts group,dermatitis and rash group,urinary tract infection group,balanoposthitis group,and asymptomatic group.Relationship between genotype distribution and patient age,clinical diagnosis,and symptom types was statistically analyzed.Results A total of 1 035 male patients underwent HPV detection,out of which 567 were positive,with a positive detection rate of 54.78％.286,164,6,109,and 470 cases were from viral warts,dermatitis and rash,urinary tract infection,balanoposthitis,and asymptomatic group,respectively.21 sub-types of HPV were detected,with the top three subtypes being type 6(17.97％),11(12.37％),and 52(8.70％).The positive rate of single type HPV infection was 29.86％,accounting for 54.50％.Positive rates of infection,low-risk infection,and multiple mixed infection in different age groups were compared,differences were all statisti-cally significant(all P＜0.05).The positive infection rate in the age group of＜20 years old was higher than that in the age groups of 20-＜30,30-＜40,and 40-＜50 years old,differences were all statistically significant(all P＜0.05).Among the positive patients,199 cases(35.10％)had no clinical symptoms,while 368(64.90％)had clinical symptoms,mainly manifested as viral warts(40.74％,n=231).In viral warts group,HPV-positive pa-tients were mainly of low-risk type,accounting for 80.95％;In balanoposthitis group,HPV-positive patients were mainly of high-risk type,accounting for 84.78％;In asymptomatic group,HPV-positive patients were mainly infected with high-risk types,accounting for 86.43％.Conclusion HPV infection in male outpatient department of derma-tology is mainly single type infection.The clinical diagnosis of low-risk infection is mainly viral warts,while high-risk in-fection is mainly manifested as balanoposthitis.In asymptomatic group,positive infections are mainly of high-risk type.

Ferroptosis is a new type of programmed cell death different from apoptosis and necrosis.Its mechanism involves iron overload,lipid peroxidation,and reactive oxygen species(ROS)generation caused by disordered iron metabolism.Ferroptosis is associated with primary osteoporosis as well as the secondary osteoporosis such as steroid-induced osteoporosis,diabetic osteoporosis and postmenopausal osteoporosis.The Chinese medicines for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis through the mechanism of ferroptosis mainly involve Chinese herbal compounds such as herbal pair of Eucommiae Cortex-Dipsaci Radix,Jintiange Capsules,and Bugu Shengsui Prescription,the single Chinese herbal medicine of Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix,and the active ingredients of herbal medicines such as icariin,gastrodin,quercetin,and artesunate.The prevention and treatment of osteoporosis by Chinese medicine monomer and Chinese herbal compound can inhibit ferroptosis through multiple targets and multiple pathways.At present,Chinese medicine has advantages in the prevention and treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis.The prevention and treatment of osteoporosis by regulating the mechanism of ferroptosis can provide a direction for the future research on the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis by Chinese medicine.

Background::Differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) is commonly diagnosed in women of child-bearing age, but whether pregnancy influences the prognosis of DTC remains controversial. This study aimed to summarize existing evidence regarding the association of pregnancy with recurrence risk in patients previously treated for DTC.Methods::We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane, and Scopus based on the prespecified protocol registered at PROSPERO (CRD42022367896). After study selection, two researchers independently extracted data from the included studies. For quantitative data synthesis, we used random-effects meta-analysis models to pool the proportion of recurrence (for pregnant women only) and odds ratio (OR; comparing the risk of recurrence between the pregnancy group and the nonpregnancy group), respectively. Then we conducted subgroup analyses to explore whether risk of recurrence differed by response to therapy status or duration of follow-up time. We also assessed quality of the included studies.Results::A total of ten studies were included. The sample size ranged from 8 to 235, with participants’ age at pregnancy or delivery ranging from 28 to 35 years. The follow-up time varied from 0.1 to 36.0 years. The pooled proportion of recurrence in all pregnant patients was 0.13 (95% confidence intervals [CI]: 0.06-0.25; I2: 0.58). Among six included studies reporting response to therapy status before pregnancy, we observed a trend for increasingly higher risk of recurrence from excellent, indeterminate, and biochemically incomplete to structurally incomplete response to therapy ( Ptrend <0.05). The pooled risk of recurrence in the pregnancy group showed no evidence of a significant difference from that in the nonpregnancy group (OR: 0.75; 95% CI: 0.45-1.23; I2: 0). The difference in follow-up time (below/above five years) was not associated with either the proportion of recurrence in all pregnant patients ( P >0.05) or the OR of recurrence in studies with a comparison group ( P >0.05). Two included studies that focused on patients with distant metastasis also did not show a significant difference in disease recurrence between pregnancy and nonpregnancy groups (OR: 0.51 [95% CI: 0.14-1.87; I2: 59%]). Conclusion::In general, pregnancy appears to have a minimal association with the disease recurrence of DTC with initial treatment. Clinicians should pay more attention to progression of DTC among pregnant women with biochemical and/or structural persistence.Registration::PROSPERO, https://www.crd.york.ac.uk/PROSPERO/; No. CRD42022367896.
