OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical value of anlotinib in third-line treatment for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) through real-world data. METHODS Clinical data of patients with advanced NSCLC who received treatment at the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Chinese Medicine from February 2021 to December 2024 were retrospectively collected. They were divided into anlotinib group (27 cases, receiving anlotinib therapy) and immunotherapy group (22 cases, receiving immunotherapy agents alone or in combination with chemotherapy drugs) according to treatment regimens. The progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) of patients were compared between the two groups, and the occurrence of adverse drug reactions during the treatment period was recorded. Using a partitioned survival model, an economic evaluation of the two treatment regimens was conducted with a cost-utility analysis approach from the perspective of the healthcare system. RESULTS The median PFS and OS of patients in the anlotinib group were 5.93 months and 11.27 months, respectively; the median PFS and OS of patients in the immunotherapy group were 5.33 months and 9.77 months, respectively; the difference was not statistically significant (P>0.05). There was no statistical difference in the total incidence of adverse drug reactions and grade 3-4 serious adverse drug reactions between the two groups (P>0.05). Compared with the immunotherapy group, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of the anlotinib group was 1 806 724.60 yuan/quality-adjusted life year (QALY), which was significantly higher than three times China’s per capita gross domestic product in 2024 (287 247 yuan/QALY). CONCLUSIONS For third-line treatment of advanced NSCLC patients, the efficacy of anlotinib is no worse than that of immunotherapy alone or in combination with chemotherapy drugs, and the safety of the two groups is comparable. However, anlotinib is not cost-effective.

Objective:To evaluate the interaction between remimazolam and propofol for sedation during hysteroscopy.Methods:American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients, aged 20-45 yr, with body mass index of 18-28 kg/m 2, scheduled for elective hysteroscopy, were included. The test was conducted in two steps. Up-and-down sequential allocation was used to determine the median effective dose (ED 50) of remimazolam (group A) and propofol (group B). The ED 50 obtained in A and B groups were then used as the standard to determine the combination regimen in group C (0.25×ED 50 of remimazolam+ 0.75×ED 50 of propofol as the initial dose), in group D (0.5×ED 50 of remimazolam+ 0.5×ED 50 of propofol as the initial dose), and in group E (0.75×ED 50 of remimazolam+ 0.25×ED 50 of propofol as the initial dose). Up-and-down sequential allocation was used to determine the ED 50 of propofol when propofol and remimazolam were combined in C, D and E groups. The interaction between the sedative effects of two drugs was analyzed using the isobolographic analysis method, and the interaction coefficient and synergistic dose ratio of two drugs were calculated. Results:The ED 50 of remimazolam was 0.180 mg/kg in group A, and the ED 50 of propofol was 1.167 mg/kg in group B. The results of isobolographic analysis showed that remimazolam and propofol had a synergistic effect. When remimazolam 0.045, 0.090 and 0.135 mg/kg were combined with propofol 0.546, 0.288 and 0.160 mg/kg, the interaction coefficients were 1.393, 1.339 and 1.127 respectively. The synergistic dosage ratio of remimazolam and propofol was 1.0∶(3.2 to 12.0). Conclusions:Remimazolam and propofol have a synergistic effect on sedation when used for hysteroscopy, and the dose ratio is 1.0∶(3.2-12.0).

Objective:To observe the 95% effective dose (ED95) of Propofol mono-sedation for successfully inserting the gastroscope in healthy adults by biased coin design up-and-down sequential method.Methods:Using prospective study method, a total of 40 patients proposed for painless gastroscopy in Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from April to May 2021 were selected. There were 15 males and 25 females. American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) classification: grade I 26 cases, grade Ⅱ 14 cases. The mean age was (50.80±9.14) years, and the mean body mass index was (24.08±2.65) kg/m 2. Propofol mono-sedation was used in all patients. The initial dose of Propofol was set as 1.6 mg/kg, adjusted with 0.1 mg/kg as a step size. The biased coin design up-and-down sequential method was used in this study. The Propofol dose of subsequent patients was determined by the response to gastroscope insertion of the previous patient. If the gastroscopy insertion reaction of the previous patient was positive, the Propofol dose of the next patient was increased by one level (0.1 mg/kg); if the gastroscopy insertion reaction of the previous patient was negative, the biased coin random was performed, and the Propofol dose used by the next patient was reduced by one level (0.1 mg/kg) with 5% probability and remained unchanged with 95% probability. Changes of mean arterial pressure, heart rate and pulse oxygen saturation were recorded at different time points, and adverse reactions such as perioperative hypotension, bradycardia, tachycardia and hypoxemia were recorded. Measurement data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation ( ± s), and t-test was used for comparison between different time points. The ED95 and 95% CI of Propofol in inhibiting the response to gastroscope insertion was calculated by Probit regression analysis. Results:All 40 patients successfully completed the gastroscopy. The calculated ED95 of Propofol mono-sedation for successfully inserting the gastroscope was 2.58 mg/kg with 95% CI of 2.40-3.31 mg/kg. The mean arterial pressure before anesthesia, after propofol injection, at the time of gastroscopy going through throat and immediately after examination was (97.33±13.34) mmHg, (93.15±11.35) mmHg, (78.95±9.30) mmHg, (79.38±9.94) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), respectively. The mean arterial pressure at the time of gastroscopy going through throat and immediately after examination decreased significantly, the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). There were no significant differences in heart rate and pulse oxygen saturation compared with those before anesthesia ( P>0.05). Conclusion:The ED95 of Propofol mono-sedation for successfully inserting the gastroscope is determined as 2.58 mg/kg (95% CI: 2.40-3.31 mg/kg) by biased coin design up-and-down sequential method.

ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect and underlying mechanism of Gandou Fumu decoction (GDFMT) on renal fibrosis in a mouse model of Wilson's disease. MethodSixty adult male toxic milk (TX) mice were randomly divided into a model group, high-, medium-, and low-dose GDFMT groups, and a positive control (penicillamine) group, and another 12 wild-type mice were assigned to the normal group. The high-, medium-, and low-dose GDFMT groups were administered GDFMT at 13.92, 6.96, 3.48 g·kg-1, respectively, and the positive control group received penicillamine at 0.1 g·kg-1, while the model and normal groups were given an equal volume of 0.9% saline solution by gavage once a day for 4 consecutive weeks. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure the levels of blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (CRE), type Ⅲ procollagen (PC-Ⅲ), and type Ⅳ collagen (C-Ⅳ) in the serum. Histological changes in the mouse kidneys were examined by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and Masson's trichrome staining. Immunofluorescence was used to assess the protein expression of leptin, Janus kinase 2 (JAK2), and signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) in renal cells. Real-time polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) was performed to analyze the mRNA expression levels of leptin, leptin receptor(OB-R), JAK2, and STAT. Western blot was used to detect the expression of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1). ResultCompared with the normal group, the model mice exhibited a significant increase in BUN, CRE, PC-Ⅲ, and C-Ⅳ levels (P<0.01). Compared with the model group, the high- and medium-dose GDFMT groups and the penicillamine groups showed significant decreases in these parameters (P<0.05, P<0.01), with the high-dose GDFMT group demonstrating the most significant reduction (P<0.01). The histological examination of renal tissue revealed fibrosis in the model group, while the fibrotic damage was mitigated to varying degrees after drug intervention, with improvement in fibrosis. Immunofluorescence results showed that leptin, JAK2, and STAT3 protein expression levels were significantly upregulated in the renal fibrosis of the model group. After GDFMT intervention, the fluorescence intensity decreased, with the high-dose GDFMT group showing the lowest intensity. Real-time PCR results demonstrated that leptin, OB-R, JAK2, and STAT3 mRNA expression levels were significantly elevated in the model group compared with those in the normal group, while the high- and medium-dose GDFMT groups and the penicillamine group showed significant reductions in their expression levels (P<0.05, P<0.01). Western blot analysis revealed that TGF-β1 and MCP-1 expression levels were significantly increased in the model group (P<0.01), and the high- and medium-dose GDFMT groups exhibited significant reductions in their expression levels (P<0.01). ConclusionGDFMT can alleviate renal fibrosis damage in TX mice, and its mechanism of action may be related to the regulation of leptin and the JAK/STAT signaling pathway.

Objective:To evaluate the therapeutic effect of hemopurification on acute chlorfenapyr poisoning according to the blood concentration of chlorfenapyr and to provide experience for clinical treatment.Methods:Two patients who presented to our Emergency Department following an ingestion of chlorfenapyr and then were treated with hemopurification in 2022 were included. The concentrations of chlorfenapyr and its highly toxic metabolite tralopyril were dynamically monitored, and the clinical data of the patients were collected.Results:Case 1 was given hemoperfusion for the first time 13 hours after ingestion. During l hour hemoperfusion, the tralopyril decreased by 28.82%. The concentration increased and exceeded the pre-perfusion level after 2 hours of hemoperfusion. After three times of hemoperfusion, the concentrations of chlorfenapyr and tralopyril were still higher than those before the first time, reaching 248 ng/mL and 1 307 ng/mL respectively. The concentration of chlorfenapyr showed a downward trend after 130 h, and the tralopyril in blood reached the peak 3 164 ng/mL at 130 h and decreased to 2 707 ng/mL at 178 h. In case 2, the blood chlorfenapyr and tralopyril concentration was 392 ng/mL and 7 598 ng/mL respectively 150 hours after ingestion. The blood chlorfenapyr concentration decreased by 37.75% respectively after first hemoperfusion, and the tralopyril concentration decreased by 38.02% respectively. During 85 hours of continuous veno-venous hemodiafiltration (CVVHDF), the concentration of tralopyril was maintained at 4 234~6 410 ng/mL. Case 1 was followed up to 12 days and lost follow-up. Case 2 died and the survival time was 247 hours.Conclusions:Hemoperfusion can scavenge tralopyril, but CVVHDF has poor scavenging ability for tralopyril. And the apparent volume of distribution (Vd) of chlorfenapyr and tralopyril are large. After ingestion, chlorfenapyr spreads to various tissues quickly, and it is easy to accumulate in the adipose tissue. The chlorfenapyr in the tissue slowly is released back to the blood and stays in the blood for a long time. The peak concentration of chlorfenapyr appeared earlier than that of tralopyril. Clinicians should pay attention to the early removal of toxins from the digestive tract.

Objective:To describe the current situation of gastric lavage operation and put forward measures for improvement by analyzing the clinical characteristics of 294 patients with gastric lavage in Poisoning Treatment Center of The First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University.Methods:The clinical data of 294 patients with acute poisoning and gastric lavage from 2019 to 2021 were collected and analyzed retrospectively, and the related parameters (poison type, gastric lavage volume, poisoning to gastric lavage time, etc.) of each year were compared.Results:A total of 653 poisoning patients underwent gastric lavage from 2019 to 2021, with an average age of (44.2 ±20.1) years, and 134 (45.6%) were male. The main causes of gastric lavage were pesticide poisoning (52.72%) and drug poisoning (42.86%). The volume of gastric lavage was less than 10 L for 43.8% of patients and 10-20 L for 32.7% of patients. Patients with gastric lavage within 60 min after ingestion of poison accounted for 45.3%, followed by 25.8% within 61-120 min. The in-hospital mortality rate was 17.7%. The common complications of gastric lavage were: the incidence of gastrointestinal bleeding (55/121, 45.5%), the incidence of aspiration pneumonia (54/140, 38.6%), and the incidences of electrolyte disorder (21% of low potassium, 29% low calcium, and 10.0% low sodium). Compared with the groups in different years, the proportion of gastric lavage in poisoning was 58.85% vs. 46.60% vs. 32.41%, which decreased year by year, with statistical difference ( P <0.05). And there was no difference in the period from ingestion to gastric lavage and gastric lavage fluid volume. There was an increasing trend in poison types between diquat and other insecticides, but there was no statistical difference. Conclusions:From 2019 to 2021, the most common causes of acute gastric lavage were pesticide poisoning and drug poisoning, and the proportion of diquat and other pesticides showed an overall upward trend. A majority of the patients (71.1%) had gastric lavage within 2 h, and 76.5% of the patients had less than 20 L gastric lavage fluid. In the future, we will further control the amount of gastric lavage fluid and pay attention to the gastric lavage operation of new insecticide poisoning.
