Objective To investigate the independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of chronic active antibody-mediated rejection (caAMR) after kidney transplantation. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 61 patients who underwent renal biopsy and were diagnosed with caAMR. The patients were divided into caAMR group (n=41) and caAMR+TCMR group (n=20) based on the presence or absence of concurrent acute T cell-mediated rejection (TCMR). The patients were followed up for 3 years. The value of 24-hour urinary protein and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at the time of biopsy in predicting graft loss was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. The independent risk factors affecting caAMR prognosis were analyzed using the LASSO-Cox regression model. The correlation between grouping, outcomes, and Banff scores was compared using Spearman rank correlation matrix analysis. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to evaluate the renal allograft survival rates of each subgroup. Results The 3-year renal allograft survival rates for the caAMR group and the caAMR+TCMR group were 83% and 79%, respectively. The area under the ROC curve (AUC) for predicting 3-year renal allograft loss was 0.83 ［95% confidence interval (CI) 0.70-0.97］ for eGFR and 0.78 (95% CI 0.61-0.96) for 24-hour urinary protein at the time of biopsy. LASSO-Cox regression analysis and Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that eGFR≤25.23 mL/(min·1.73 m²) and the presence of donor-specific antibody (DSA) against human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I might be independent risk factors affecting renal allograft prognosis, with hazard ratios of 7.67 (95% CI 2.18-27.02) and 5.13 (95% CI 1.33-19.80), respectively. A strong correlation was found between the Banff chronic lesion indicators of renal interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy (P<0.05). Conclusions The presence of HLA class I DSA and eGFR≤25.23 mL/(min·1.73 m²) at the time of biopsy may be independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of caAMR.

Objective: To investigate the association between plant-based dietary patterns and gestational weight gain (GWG) among pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), so as to provide the evidence for guiding the reasonable diet during pregnancy. Methods: GDM pregnant women who participated in the WeBirth project in Hangzhou Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital were selected. Maternal age and pre-pregnancy body mass index (BMI) were collected. The Chinese version of Pregnancy Physical Activity questionnaire was used to assess the daily activity equivalent. The food frequency questionnaire was used to collect the frequency and amount of food intake in the last month before enrollment. The overall plant-based diet index (PDI), healthy plant-based diet index (HPDI), and unhealthy plant-based diet index (UPDI) were constructed based on food intake and grouped by quartiles. Multiple linear regression models were used to analyze the association between plant-based dietary patterns and GWG. Results: A total of 1 943 pregnant women with GDM, with a median age of 30.91 (interquartile range, 4.92) years. The median BMI of pre-pregnancy was 21.51 (interquartile range, 4.06) kg/m2. The medians of PDI, HPDI and UPDI were 32.42 (interquartile range, 4.60), 32.48 (interquartile range, 4.41) and 32.40 (interquartile range, 5.36), respectively. The median of GWG was 11.30 (interquartile range, 4.52) kg. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that PDI (Q3 group, β=0.674, 95%CI: 0.064-1.285; Q4 group, β=0.702, 95%CI: 0.098-1.306), UPDI (Q3 group, β=1.332, 95%CI: 0.771-1.894; Q4 group, β=1.115, 95%CI: 0.550-1.681) were positively associated with GWG after adjusting for age, pre-pregnancy BMI, daily activity equivalent and daily energy intake. No significant association was found between HPDI and GWG (all P>0.05). Conclusion UPDI was associated with a higher risk of GWG in pregnant women with GDM.

BACKGROUND: Treatment with chimeric antigen receptor-T (CAR-T) cells has shown promising effectiveness in patients with relapsed/refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (R/R B-ALL), although the process of preparing for this therapy usually takes a long time. We have recently created CD19 Fast-CAR-T (F-CAR-T) cells, which can be produced within a single day. The objective of this study was to evaluate and contrast the effectiveness and safety of CD19 F-CAR-T cells with those of CD19 conventional CAR-T cells in the management of R/R B-ALL. METHODS: A multicenter, retrospective analysis of the clinical data of 44 patients with R/R B-ALL was conducted. Overall, 23 patients were administered with innovative CD19 F-CAR-T cells (F-CAR-T group), whereas 21 patients were given CD19 conventional CAR-T cells (C-CAR-T group). We compared the rates of complete remission (CR), minimal residual disease (MRD)-negative CR, leukemia-free survival (LFS), overall survival (OS), and the incidence of cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome (ICANS) between the two groups. RESULTS: Compared with the C-CAR-T group, the F-CAR-T group had significantly higher CR and MRD-negative rates (95.7% and 91.3%, respectively; 71.4% and 66.7%, respectively; P = 0.036 and P = 0.044). No significant differences were observed in the 1-year or 2-year LFS or OS rates between the two groups: the 1-year and 2-year LFS for the F-CAR-T group vs.C-CAR-T group were 47.8% and 43.5% vs. 38.1% and 23.8% (P = 0.384 and P = 0.216), while the 1-year and 2-year OS rates were 65.2% and 56.5% vs. 52.4% and 47.6% (P = 0.395 and P = 0.540). Additionally, among CR patients who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) following CAR-T-cell therapy, there were no significant differences in the 1-year or 2-year LFS or OS rates: 57.1% and 50.0% vs. 47.8% and 34.8% (P = 0.506 and P = 0.356), 64.3% and 57.1% vs. 65.2% and 56.5% (P = 0.985 and P = 0.883), respectively. The incidence of CRS was greater in the F-CAR-T group (91.3%) than in the C-CAR-T group (66.7%) (P = 0.044). The incidence of ICANS was also greater in the F-CAR-T group (30.4%) than in the C-CAR-T group (9.5%) (P = 0.085), but no treatment-related deaths occurred in the two groups. CONCLUSION Compared with C-CAR-T-cell therapy, F-CAR-T-cell therapy has a superior remission rate but also leads to a tolerably increased incidence of CRS/ICANS. Further research is needed to explore the function of allo-HSCT as an intermediary therapy after CAR-T-cell therapy.

Objective·To explore the correlation between comorbidities of chronic non-communicable diseases(chronic diseases),phase angle(PhA),and muscle mass decline associated with sarcopenia in the elderly,and the predictive value of chronic disease comorbidities and PhA in muscle mass decline in the elderly.Methods·By retrospectively screening inpatients aged≥60 years who were admitted to the Department of Geriatrics,Renji Hospital,Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from August 1,2018 to July 31,2019,basic information and medical history of the patients(gender,age,number of medications used,number of comorbidities,presence of osteoporosis,smoking history,etc.)were collected,as well as laboratory examination indicators(hemoglobin,albumin,serum creatinine,serum uric acid,ferritin,vitamin D,triacylglycerol,total cholesterol,high-density lipoprotein,low-density lipoprotein,etc.).The age-adjusted Charlson comorbidity index(aCCI)was calculated.The InBody S10 bioelectrical impedance body composition detector was used to test the body composition.Body mass index(BMI),skeletal muscle mass index(SMI),and PhA were collected.Some patients underwent measurement of grip strength.Muscle mass decline was diagnosed by using the SMI values recommended by the 2019 Asian Working Group for Sarcopenia(AWGS)(≤7.0 kg/m2 for males and≤5.7 kg/m2 for females).According to the measured SMI values,patients were divided into a group with normal muscle mass and a group with muscle mass decline.Univariate and multivariate Logistic analyses were employed to investigate the risk factors associated with muscle mass decline related to sarcopenia in the elderly.Additionally,the receiver operator characteristic(ROC)curve and the area under the curve were utilized to predict the significance of these factors in muscle mass decline.Results·A total of 359 chronic disease patients were enrolled,including 226 males and 133 females.There were 241 cases in the normal muscle mass group and 118 cases in the muscle mass decline group.The incidence of muscle mass decline related to sarcopenia in the elderly was 32.9%.The univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age(OR=1.036,95%CI 1.013?1.060),comorbidities(OR=1.117,95%CI 1.025?1.217),aCCI(OR=1.123,95%CI 1.031?1.222),and high-density lipoprotein(OR=3.688,95%CI 2.065?6.622)were positively correlated with the risk of muscle mass decline in the elderly.BMI(OR=0.514,95%CI 0.443?0.597),PhA(OR=0.195,95%CI 0.126?0.303),hemoglobin(OR=0.984,95%CI 0.972?0.996)and triacylglycerol(OR=0.606,95%CI 0.424?0.866)were negatively correlated with the risk of muscle mass decline in the elderly.Multivariate Logistic regression model indicated that PhA(OR=0.338,95%CI 0.119?0.959)and BMI(OR=0.634,95%CI 0.476?0.844)were negatively correlated with the risk of muscle mass decline in elderly.The area under the ROC curve for predicting muscle mass decline related to sarcopenia in elderly by using BMI and PhA was 0.893(95%CI 0.855?0.931)and 0.786(95%CI 0.736?0.837),respectively.The sensitivity was 0.724 and 0.676,respectively.The specificity was 0.916 and 0.762,respectively.When BMI combined with PhA predicted muscle mass decline in the elderly,the area under the ROC curve was 0.917(95%CI 0.883?0.951).The sensitivity was 0.867,and the specificity was 0.860.Conclusion·aCCI is correlated with muscle mass decline associated with sarcopenia in the elderly.As BMI and PhA decrease,the risk of muscle mass decline in the elderly increases.The combination of BMI and PhA has a high predictive value in muscle mass decline in the elderly.No predictive value of chronic diseases comorbidities in muscle mass decline related to sarcopenia in the elderly is found.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of neural mobilization based on shoulder control training on shoulder pain and upper limb function in stroke patients with hemiplegia. MethodsFrom January, 2020 to November, 2021, 43 patients with hemiplegia after stroke in the Second People's Hospital of Nantong were randomly divided into control group (n = 21) and treatment group (n = 22). The control group received shoulder control training, while the treatment group received neural mobilization in addition. Before and after four weeks of treatment, they were evaluated with the Numeric Rating Scale (NRS) of pain and Fugl-Meyer Assessment-Upper Extremities (FMA-UE). ResultsOne case dropped off in the control group and two cases dropped off in the treatment group. After treatment, the NRS score and FMA-UE score improved in both groups (|t| >7.898, P < 0.001), and they were better in the treatment group than in the control group (|t| >2.337, P < 0.05). ConclusionNeural mobilization based on shoulder control training can significantly alleviate shoulder pain and improve upper limb motor function in stroke patients with hemiplegia.

Objective Explore the impact of long-term blood glucose fluctuations and blood glucose control on the stroke incidence in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods An observa-tional cohort of patients with T2DM was established based on"Shanghai Community Chronic Disease Health Management Service Objects"on October 1st,2018.Follow-ups were conducted every three months,and fasting blood glucose(FBG)were tested at each visit.Basic epidemiological data were collected via the Shanghai Community Health Management Information Platform or survey questionnaires,and stroke incidents were gathered via the"Shanghai Cardio-Cerebrovascular Event Monitoring System".The first reported stroke incident within the observation period was considered.The observational deadline was December 31st,2021.Standard deviation of FBG was used to evaluate blood glucose fluctuation and FBG control rate was used to reflect blood glucose control status.Cox Proportional Hazards Model was utilized to analyze the impacts.Results The cumulative observation time was 91,826.1 person-years for the study,in which there were 1785 cases of stroke events observed,implying a cumulative incidence of 5.73%and incidence rate of 1943.9/100000 person-years.The mean number of follow-ups(10.29±3.07)per patient was recorded.The details of the stroke cases were as follows:transient ischemic attacks(n=111,6.22%),non-lacunar brain infarctions(n=754,42.24%),lacunar brain infarctions(n=798,44.71%),intracerebral hemorrhages(n=80,4.48%),non-intracerebral hemorrhages(n=8,0.45%),subarachnoid hemorrhages(n=12,0.67%),and unclassified strokes(n=22,1.23%).After excluding subjects with less than five follow-ups,the Cox Proportional Hazards Model suggested that increased standard deviation of FBG was an independent risk factor for the first stroke incident,and an increased blood glucose control rate was an independent protective factor.Both the standard deviation of FBG and the blood glucose control rate were not correlated with stroke recurrence.Conclusion Long-term blood glucose fluctuations and blood glucose control can predict the risk of a first stroke in patients with T2DM.The relationship between blood glucose fluctuations,blood glucose management,and stroke recurrence requires further studies.

Objective To systematically evaluate and sequentially analyze the clinical efficacy and safety of Baogong Zhixue Granules for the treatment of abnormal uterine bleeding due to ovulation disorder.Methods The randomized controlled trials(RCTs)of Baogong Zhixue Granules for the treatment of abnormal uterine bleeding due to ovulation disorder were retrieved from the databases of CNKI,Wanfang Data,VIP,China Biology Medicine,PubMed,Embase,and Cochrane Library from the establishment of the databases to January 5th,2023.Literature screening and data extraction were conducted according to Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions,and Meta-analysis was performed by RevMan 5.4.Results Totally 15 articles were included,involving 1 425 patients.Meta-analysis results showed that Baogong Zhixue Granules could effectively improve the clinical efficacy of abnormal uterine bleeding due to ovulatory disorder(RR=1.17,95%CI[1.13,1.23],P<0.000 01),shorten hemostasis time[bleeding control time(MD=-6.35,95%CI[-8.89,-3.81],P<0.000 01),complete hemostasis time(MD=-12.56,95%CI[-16.22,-8.89],P<0.000 01)],reduce endometrial thickness(MD=-1.26,95%CI[-1.71,-0.80],P<0.000 01),reduce hemoglobin loss(MD=13.35,95%CI[11.41,15.29],P<0.000 01),improve the score of uterine bleeding(MD=-2.22,95%CI[-2.43,-2.01],P<0.000 01),and reduce the recurrence of disease(RR=0.37,95%CI[0.19,0.72],P=0.004).There was no statistical significance between the test group and the control group in terms of adverse reactions(P=0.82).The trial sequential analysis of the total efficiency was carried out,and the cumulative included research passed the traditional threshold and trail sequential analysis threshold.Conclusion Baogong Zhixue Granules have a certain clinical efficacy in the treatment of abnormal uterine bleeding due to ovulation disorder,but there may be publication bias in the study,and higher quality clinical RCTs need to be carried out.

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of Naples prognostic score (NPS) in assessing the overall survival of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) patients after receiving hepatectomy treatment.Methods:Clinicopathological characteristics and follow-up data of 164 ICC patients who underwent curative hepatectomy at Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from Jan 2010 to Aug 2022 were retrospectively collected. NPS was calculated basing on preoperative serum albumin concentration, total cholesterol concentration, the neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio, and lymphocyte-monocyte ratio. The relationship between NPS and overall survival was analyzed, and the efficacy of NPS in predicting long-term survival was compared to TNM staging system and other independent risk factors.Results:Multivariate analysis identified the NPS [Score 1 versus 0: 1.864 (1.011-3.437), P=0.046; Score 2 versus 0: 3.013 (1.465-6.199), P=0.003] as an independent risk factor for overall survival. The area under curve (AUC) of the rece中iver operating characteristic (ROC) curve for predicting 5-year OS based on NPS is 0.75, which is higher than TNM staging (0.59) and other independent risk factors (CA19-9:0.71, lymph node metastasis: 0.66, tumor size: 0.62, microvascular invasion: 0.56). Conclusion:NPS as an independent predictor of overall survival for ICC patients, is more accurate than TNM staging system and other clinicopathological factors.
