OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy and safety of 2 kinds of selective Janus kinase 1 (JAK-1) inhibitor Upadacitinib and Filgotinibfor in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, and to provide evidence-based reference for clinical treatment. METHODS: Retrieved from PubMed, Medline, Embase, the Cochrane library, CBM, CJFD, Wanfang database and VIP, RCTs about placebo (control group) versus Upadacitinib or Filgotinibfor (trial group) in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis on the basis of methotrexate or other antirheumatic drugs were collected during the establishment of the database to Jan. 2019. Meta-analysis of therapeutic efficacy [the proportion of patients with remission rate of 20% (ACR20), ACR50, ACR70 according to the criteria of American Rheumatism Association, the proportion of patients with 28-joint disease activity score (DAS28)<3.2] and safety [the incidence of adverse event (AE), severe adverse event (SAE), infection, severe infection, herpes zoster, liver injury] were conducted by using Rev Man 5.3 software after data extraction and quality evaluation with Cochrane system evaluator manual 5.1.0. RESULTS: A total of 8 RCTs were included, involving 2 738 patients. Meta-analysis showed that the proportion of patients with ACR20 [OR=3.37,95%CI(2.80,4.05),P<0.001], ACR50 [OR=3.78,95%CI(2.98,4.78),P<0.001] and ACR70 [OR=4.31,95%CI(3.05,6.09),P<0.001], the proportion of patients with DAS28<3.2 [OR=3.86,95%CI(2.98,5.00),P<0.001], the incidence of AE [OR=1.33,95%CI(1.11,1.61), P=0.002], the incidence of infection [OR=1.43,95%CI(1.12,1.81),P=0.004] in trial group were significantly higher than control group; there was no statistical significance in other indexes (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS: JAK-1 inhibitors Upadacitinib and Filgotinib can improve the effect indexes of ACR20, ACR50 and ACR70 and the proportion of patients with DAS28<3.2 of rheumatoid arthritis patients; it can not increase the incidence of SAE, severe infection, herpes zoster, liver injury, but can increase the risk of AE and infection.

【Objective】 To investigate the effects and mechanisms of different doses of fingolimod (FTY720) on non-antibody-mediated transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI). 【Methods】 A TRALI mouse model was constructed using lipopolysaccharide (LPS) pre-stimulation and platelets (Plt) of different storage days for second strike. The success of the modeling was determined by protein concentration in lung tissue homogenates, myeloperoxidase (MPo) activity, lung wet/dry weight ratio (W/D ratio), lung tissue damage score and pathological sections. Ceramide and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) contents in platelets of different storage days were detected. FTY720 was administered 1 h after LPS injection to investigate the role of FTY720 in TRALI. The expression levels of vascular endothelial cadherin (VE-cadherin) and zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) were analyzed by WB. 【Results】 Mice infused with stored 5-day Plt (d5Plt group) exhibited typical signs of TRALI, and the differences in lung tissue homogenate protein concentration (6 546.38±409.50) μg/mL, MPO activity (49.38±4.43) U/L, W/D ratio 4.79±0.21, and lung tissue damage score 7.24±0.38 from the rest of the groups were statistically significant (P<0.05). With the increase of platelet storage time, the ceramide content gradually increased and S1P content gradually decreased, and the ratio of the two was imbalanced. d5Plt showed statistically significant differences (P<0.01) in ceramide content (58.37±5.69) μmol/L and S1P content (149.81±4.86) nmol/L from the rest of the groups. After preventive administration of FTY720, 1 mg/kg FTY720 had no significant effect on TRALI mice, whose lung tissue homogenate protein concentration (6 170.26±545.50) μg/mL, MPO activity (45.97±4.79) U/L, W/D ratio 4.88±0.25, and lung tissue damage score 7.92±0.65 were significantly higher than those of the normal and LPS control groups (P<0.01). The low-dose (0.5, 0.2, and 0.1 mg/kg) FTY720 group alleviated lung injury, and its protein concentration, MPO activity, W/D ratio, and lung tissue injury score were significantly lower than those of the d5Plt group (P<0.05). Pathological sections also showed similar results. In terms of endothelial intercellular junction protein expression, the VE-cadherin expression levels in the 1 mg/kg FTY720 group were significantly lower than those in the normal and LPS control groups (P<0.05), and the VE-cadherin and ZO-1 expression levels in the low-dose (0.5, 0.2, and 0.1 mg/kg) FTY720 group were significantly higher than those in the d5Plt group (P<0.05), which tended to be normalized. 【Conclusion】 In this study, a TRALI mouse model was successfully established by one strike of LPS and two strikes of d5Plt. Low doses of FTY720 (0.5, 0.2, 0.1 mg/kg) were protective against TRALI, while high doses of FTY720 (1 mg/kg) may aggravate the symptoms of TRALI. This protective effect may be somewhat dependent on the expression of VE-cadherin and ZO-1.

【Objective】 To investigate the risk factors of vasovagal reactions(VVR) related to plasma donation, so as to put forward clinical suggestions for early identification and accurate intervention of high-risk groups to ensure the safety of plasma donation. 【Methods】 The demographic characteristics(i.e. gender, age, weight) and records of plasma donors(donation history, pulse before plasma donation, duration of collection, etc.) were collected from July to December 2019 in a region of Sichuan. Based on logistic regression analysis, the correlation between these factors and the risk of VVR was explored. 【Results】 The information of 69 172 donors was collected, and the incidence of VVR was 7.04‰. The risk of VVR was reduced by 99% in the group with plasma collection duration less than 30 minutes compared with the group with plasma collection duration more than 50 minutes(OR, 0.01; 95% CI, 0.00~0.01; P<0.001). The risk of male group was 94 % lower than that of female group(OR, 0.06; 95% CI, 0.04~0.10; P<0.001). Compared with the 45~50 kg group, the risk of weight greater than 80 kg group decreased by 80%(OR, 0.20; 95% CI, 0.09~0.42; P<0.001). The risk of repeated donation group was 34 % lower than that of the first time donation group(OR, 0.66; 95% CI, 0.47~0.91; P<0.001). The risk of VVR in the group with pulse greater than 90 bpm before plasma donation was 2.43 times that in the 60~69 bmp group(OR, 2.43; 95% CI, 1.75~3.36; P<0.001). 【Conclusion】 Duration of plasma collection, gender, weight, frequency of plasma donation, pulse before plasma donation and donor status are independent risk factors for plasma donation-related VVR. Among them, plasma collection duration, gender and weight were the main independent risk factors for plasma donation-related VVR. For donors with plasma collection duration more than 50 minutes, female and low weight, higher risk of VVR was presented and more preventive intervention should be given.
