Mycophenolic acid (MPA), the active moiety of both mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) and enteric-coated mycophenolate sodium (EC-MPS), serves as a primary immunosuppressant for maintaining solid organ transplants. Therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) enhances treatment outcomes through tailored approaches. This study aimed to develop an evidence-based guideline for MPA TDM, facilitating its rational application in clinical settings. The guideline plan was drawn from the Institute of Medicine and World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines. Using the Delphi method, clinical questions and outcome indicators were generated. Systematic reviews, Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) evidence quality evaluations, expert opinions, and patient values guided evidence-based suggestions for the guideline. External reviews further refined the recommendations. The guideline for the TDM of MPA (IPGRP-2020CN099) consists of four sections and 16 recommendations encompassing target populations, monitoring strategies, dosage regimens, and influencing factors. High-risk populations, timing of TDM, area under the curve (AUC) versus trough concentration (C₀), target concentration ranges, monitoring frequency, and analytical methods are addressed. Formulation-specific recommendations, initial dosage regimens, populations with unique considerations, pharmacokinetic-informed dosing, body weight factors, pharmacogenetics, and drug‍-‍drug interactions are covered. The evidence-based guideline offers a comprehensive recommendation for solid organ transplant recipients undergoing MPA therapy, promoting standardization of MPA TDM, and enhancing treatment efficacy and safety.

Debates persist regarding the efficacy and safety of azvudine, particularly its real-world outcomes. This study involved patients aged ≥60 years who were admitted to 25 hospitals in mainland China with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection between December 1, 2022, and February 28, 2023. Efficacy outcomes were all-cause mortality during hospitalization, the proportion of patients discharged with recovery, time to nucleic acid-negative conversion (T _NANC), time to symptom improvement (T _SI), and time of hospital stay (T _HS). Safety was also assessed. Among the 5884 participants identified, 1999 received azvudine, and 1999 matched controls were included after exclusion and propensity score matching. Azvudine recipients exhibited lower all-cause mortality compared with controls in the overall population (13.3% vs. 17.1%, RR, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.67-0.90; P = 0.001) and in the severe subgroup (25.7% vs. 33.7%; RR, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.66-0.88; P < 0.001). A higher proportion of patients discharged with recovery, and a shorter T _NANC were associated with azvudine recipients, especially in the severe subgroup. The incidence of adverse events in azvudine recipients was comparable to that in the control group (2.3% vs. 1.7%, P = 0.170). In conclusion, azvudine showed efficacy and safety in older patients hospitalized with COVID-19 during the SARS-CoV-2 omicron wave in China.

Objective To develop a nomogram-based predictive model for assessing the risk of respiratory distress syndrome(RDS)in premature infants in the high-altitude region of Dali.The predictive performance and clinical applicability of the model will be systematically evaluated to provide evidence-based guidance for the early diagnosis and clinical management of respiratory distress in premature infants.Methods A total of 680 preterm infants admitted to the Dali Maternal and Child Health Hospital between January 2020 and December 2024 were enrolled in the study and randomly divided into a training set(n=476)and a validation set(n=204)at a ratio of 7∶3.Independent predictors were identified through univariate logistic regression and multivariate stepwise regression analyses,and a nomogram model was subsequently developed using R software.The performance of the model,including its discrimination,calibration,stability,and clinical applicability,was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC),Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test,bootstrap resampling method,and decision curve analysis(DCA).Results The final model incorporated seven independent variables:gestational age,birth weight,Apgar score,blood oxygen saturation,gestational hyperglycemia,prenatal glucocor-ticoid therapy,and maternal history of infection.The areas under the curve(AUCs)for the training and validation sets were 0.88(95%CI:0.84～0.92)and 0.83(95%CI:0.76～0.89),respectively,with all Hosmer-Lemeshow test p-values exceeding 0.05.The bootstrap-corrected AUC was 0.85(95%CI:0.81～0.89).DCA indicated that the model achieved the highest net benefit at a risk threshold range of 10%to 35%.Conclusions This model integrates multiple risk factors associated with the occurrence of RDS in plateau environments,demonstrating robust predictive performance for RDS in preterm infants residing in high-altitude areas such as Dali.It can serve as a valuable tool for risk stratification and clinical decision-making,and may also provide a reference for future multicenter prospective studies.

This paper summarized the experience of Professor FANG Dingya in staged treatment of Sjögren's syndrome from the perspective of dryness toxin. It is believed that the cause of Sjögren's syndrome is externally-contracted dryness， consumption of essence and fluid， congenital and acquired essence deficiency， depleted essence and insufficient blood， and the core mechanism is internal accumulation of dryness toxin. The treatment can be divided into three stages， that is dryness toxin transforming into fire-heat， damp-heat and phlegm-stasis， from the perspective of dryness metal qi transformation. It is emphasized to dispel pathogen mainly， to clear and moisten with yin-nourishing medicinals in supplementation， and to treat by stages based on syndrome differentiation. For dryness toxin with fire-heat， it is suggested to moisten dryness， resolve toxins and subdue fire， with self-made Runzao Jiedu Decoction （润燥解毒汤） in modification. For dryness toxin with damp-heat， the method of nourishing yin， clearing heat and draining dampness should be used， and Chunze Decoction （春泽汤） in modification is suggested. For dryness toxin with phlegm-stasis， it is recommended to unblock collaterals， disperse phlegm and dissipate stasis， with self-made Sanyu Xiaotan Decoction （散瘀消痰汤） in modification.

Objective This study investigated the epidemic characteristics and spatio-temporal dynamics of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) in Qingdao City,China. Methods Information was collected on HFRS cases in Qingdao City from 2010 to 2022. Descriptive epidemiologic,seasonal decomposition,spatial autocorrelation,and spatio-temporal cluster analyses were performed. Results A total of 2,220 patients with HFRS were reported over the study period,with an average annual incidence of 1.89/100,000 and a case fatality rate of 2.52％. The male:female ratio was 2.8:1. 75.3％ of patients were aged between 16 and 60 years old,75.3％ of patients were farmers,and 11.6％ had both "three red" and "three pain" symptoms. The HFRS epidemic showed two-peak seasonality:the primary fall-winter peak and the minor spring peak. The HFRS epidemic presented highly spatially heterogeneous,street/township-level hot spots that were mostly distributed in Huangdao,Pingdu,and Jiaozhou. The spatio-temporal cluster analysis revealed three cluster areas in Qingdao City that were located in the south of Huangdao District during the fall-winter peak. Conclusion The distribution of HFRS in Qingdao exhibited periodic,seasonal,and regional characteristics,with high spatial clustering heterogeneity. The typical symptoms of "three red" and"three pain" in patients with HFRS were not obvious.

Objective:To analyze the correlation between homocysteine (Hcy), ferritin and gestational anemia in advanced age pregnant women, and the effect on adverse pregnancy outcomes.Methods:The clinical data of 344 advanced age pregnant women in Handan City Maternal and Child Health Hospital from March 2021 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The adverse pregnancy outcomes were followed up and recorded. The pregnant women were divided into anemia group (114 cases) and control group (230 cases) according to the diagnostic criteria for anemia. The levels of Hcy and ferritin, etc. were compared between two groups, different degrees of anemia and different pregnancy outcomes. Pearson method was used to analyze the correlation between Hcy, ferritin and hemoglobin. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to analyze the independent risk factors of adverse pregnancy outcomes in advanced age pregnant women with gestational anemia.Results:The Hcy in anemia group was significantly higher than that in control group: (31.39 ± 3.34) mol/L vs. (9.28 ± 1.44) mol/L, the ferritin was significantly lower than that in control group: (69.81 ± 5.08) μg/L vs. (96.43 ± 7.52) μg/L, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). Among 114 advanced age pregnant women with gestational anemia, 64 cases were mild anemia (mild anemia group), 35 cases were moderate anemia (moderate anemia group), and 15 cases were severe anemia (severe anemia group). The levels of Hcy in the control group, mild anemia group, moderate anemia group and severe anemia group were gradually increased: (9.28 ± 1.44), (24.79 ± 3.25), (37.63 ± 5.51) and (45.01 ± 7.23) mol/L, the levels of ferritin were gradually decreased: (96.43 ± 7.52), (81.19 ± 5.14), (64.82 ± 4.47) and (32.96 ± 2.01) μg/L, and the difference between pairwise comparisons were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis result showed that Hcy was negatively correlated with hemoglobin ( r = - 0.596, P<0.01), and ferritin was positively correlated with hemoglobin ( r = 0.685, P<0.01). Among 114 advanced age pregnant women with gestational anemia, 35 cases had adverse pregnancy outcomes, and 79 cases had normal pregnancy outcomes. The age, gestational reproductive tract infection rate and Hcy in advanced age pregnant women with adverse pregnancy outcomes were significantly higher than those in advanced age pregnant women with normal pregnancy outcomes: (41.17 ± 3.74) years old vs. (38.25 ± 4.28) years old, 28.57% (10/35) vs. 10.13% (8/79) and (49.56 ± 4.12) mol/L vs. (23.34 ± 2.63) mol/L, the ferritin was significantly lower than that in advanced age pregnant women with normal pregnancy outcomes: (38.36 ± 3.08) μg/L vs. (83.74 ± 6.25) μg/L, and the degree of gestational anemia was more serious than that in advanced age pregnant women with normal pregnancy outcomes, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01 or <0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis result showed that age, gestational reproductive tract infection, Hcy, ferritin and the degree of gestational anemia were the independent risk factors of adverse pregnancy outcomes in advanced age pregnant women with gestational anemia ( OR = 1.570, 1.758, 1.865, 1.556 and 1.652; 95% CI 1.154 to 2.136, 1.181 to 2.617, 1.223 to 2.842, 1.100 to 2.201 and 1.175 to 2.323; P<0.01). Conclusions:The level of Hcy in advanced age pregnant women with gestational anemia is relatively higher, and the level of ferritin is relatively lower. The ferritin and Hcy levels are risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes in advanced age pregnant women with gestational anemia, and may be involved in the occurrence and development of gestational anemia in advanced age pregnant women.
