Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic, relapsing, inflammatory dermatosis with a variety of clinical manifestations and difficult to cure. Currently, many AD drug candidates have entered the research and development pipeline. In order to provide technical specifications for the clinical development of AD drugs, the Center for Drug Evaluation of National Medical Products Administration released the "Technical Guidelines for Clinical Trials of Drugs for AD Treatment" (Draft for Comments) in November 2022. Non-clinical pharmacodynamics evaluation is an important research before the drug enters clinical trials. Oxazolone (OXA)- and 2,4-dinitro-fluorobenzene (DNFB)-induced models are the most popular classical hapten-induced AD murine models, but variations of modeling are existing in the methods from different studies, including sensitization sites, haptens' dosages, the period of challenges, and the skin lesions severity evaluation as well. In this study, the investigation of OXA- and DNFB-induced AD murine models with various conditions of modeling was performed to compare the characteristics of hapten-induced AD murine models in the pathological process and severity according to the appearance of AD patients, and the guidance of pharmacodynamics evaluation of AD-therapeutic drugs in clinical trials as well, which may provide a proposal for AD treatment drug candidates in the non-clinical pharmacodynamics evaluation. All animal experiments were approved by the Animal Care & Welfare Committee of Institute of Materia Medica, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College (approval No.: 00007782 and 00007784).

Objective To evaluate the safety and feasibility of laparoscopic left hepatectomy in patients with primary hepatic carcinoma. Methods Retrospective analysis was conducted in clinical data of left hepatectomy from 2007 to 2014,including 47 cases of laparoscopic hepatectomy and 46 cases of open hepatectomy. The intraoperative and postoperative data of the two surgical methods were compared to evalu-ate whether laparoscopic left hepatectomy is safe and feasible. Results The tumor size were bigger in the open hepatectomy [(56. 57 ± 24. 56) mm vs. (64. 11 ± 33. 39) mm,P=0. 218]. The laparoscopic left hepatectomy resulted in shorter operation time [(217. 53 ± 60. 22) min vs.(306.80±119.91)min],andtherewasasignificantlydifference(P<0.05).Theintraoperativebloodlosswerelesserinthelaparo-scopic left hepatectomy [(350. 21 ± 197. 98) mL vs. (556. 74 ± 471. 41) mL],and there was a significantly difference (P<0. 05). The lap-aroscopic left hepatectomy had a smaller intraoperative blood transfusion rate (12. 8% vs. 32. 6%,P<0. 05). The length of ICU stay,time for gastroentestinal function recovery, postopetative hospital stay were shorter than those of open left hepatectomy (P<0. 05). There was no significant difference of postoperative complication rate between them (14. 9% vs. 23. 9%,P=0. 271). The survival rates of 1-and 3-year after operation in patients with laparoscopic left hepatectomy were 91. 5% and 83. 0% respectively,while 84. 8% and 76. 1% in patients un-derwent open hepatectomy. The tumor-free survival rates 1-and 3-year after operation were 74. 5% and 59. 6% in patients with laparoscopic left hepatectomy respectively,while 65. 2% and 54. 3% in patients underwent open hepatectomy. Conclusion Laparoscopic left hepatectomy for primary hepatic carcinoma is safe and feasible. Laparoscopic left hepatectomy could be a consideration as the standard surgical methods for hepatic carcinoma.
