Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of reduced-dose tacrolimus (FK506 )in combination with increased-dose mycophenolate mofetil (MMF)after renal transplantation.Methods In this prospective study,52 patients undergoing renal transplantation for over 1 2 months in the Department of Organ Transplantation,Anhui Provincial Hospital from January 201 1 to January 201 3 were recruited.All participants were randomly divided into the intervention group and control group (n =26 in each group).In the intervention group,blood trough concentration of FK506 was adjusted to 2.0-4.5 ng/ml and oral dose of MMF was adjusted to 1 .5 g/d during 1 5 d after study.And in control group, blood trough concentration of FK506 was kept in 5.5-1 0.0 ng/ml and oral dose of MMF was 1 .0 g/d constantly.The changes of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR)and serum creatinine (Scr)at 0 d,1 5 d,and 2-,4-,6-,8-,1 0-,1 2-month after corresponding treatment were statistically compared between two groups.At 1 year after therapy,triglyceride, total cholesterol and 24 h urinary protein levels were measured and compared between two groups.Moreover,the incidence of adverse reactions was also statistically compared.Results During the period from 0 d to 1 2 months after treatment,GFR did not significantly change in the control group (P >0.05),whereas the value in the intervention group was considerably elevated (P <0.05).The changes in terms of the GFR at 8-,1 0-and 1 2-month after treatment significantly differed between two groups (all in P <0.05).From 0 d to 1 2 months after therapy,the levels of Scr were significantly decreased in two groups (both in P <0.05),and more apparent decline was noted in the intervention group.The changes in the Scr levels at 1 0 and 1 2 months after corresponding treatment significantly differed between two groups (both in P <0.05).At 1 2 months after therapy,there was no significant difference in the levels of total cholesterol,triglyceride and mean 24 h urinary protein between the control and intervention groups (all in P >0.05).No acute rejection or renal allograft dysfunction occurred in two groups.And there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the intervention and control groups (P >0.05).Conclusions Combined therapy of reduced-dose FK506 and increased-dose MMF is an efficacious and safe immunosuppressive therapy.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of tenofovir amibufenamide in patients over 65 years old with chronic hepatitis B and liver cirrhosis.Methods:We recruited 45 patients in Linyi People's Hospital with chronic hepatitis B and liver cirrhosis who were treated with TMF antiviral therapy for 48 weeks, compared the virologic response rate and HBV DNA decrease level at 12, 24 and 48 weeks, and the changes in hepatitis B surface antigen, alanine aminotransferase, glomerular filtration rate, creatinine, triglycerides, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, serum phosphorus and blood lipids, and the changes in ALT normalization rate at 48 weeks. P<0.05 was statistically significant. Results:The age of the enrolled patients was 69.0 (67.0, 72.5) years. At 12, 24, and 48 weeks of treatment, the complete virological response rates were 32.4% (12/37), 70.0% (28/40), and 84.6% (33/39) respectively, and the level of HBV DNA decreased from baseline ( P＜0.05). After 48 weeks of treatment, the level of HBsAg decreased ( P<0.05), and there was no negative HBsAg conversion and seroconversion. After 48 weeks of treatment, the level of ALT decreased ( P<0.05). At 48 weeks of treatment, the rates of ALT reverted to normality were 88.9% (16/18) and 70.4% (19/27), respectively. There was no significant difference in the levels of glomerular filtration rate, creatinine, phosphorus, triglycerides, total cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol estimated at baseline before and after treatment ( P＞0.05), and no serious adverse events were observed. Conclusions:For patients over 65 years old with chronic hepatitis B and liver cirrhosis, TMF can significantly inhibit HBV DNA replication, and the ALT normalization rate is high and well tolerated.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of kidney transplantation(KT)from senile living-related donors aged over 70 years.Methods:Between 2017 and 2019, perioperative and follow-up data from 18 pairs of donors and recipients were retrospectively reviewed.Results:Operations of all 18 pairs of recipients and donors were conducted successfully without serious perioperative complications.No delayed graft function occurred.There was 1 episode(5.6%)of acute rejection.The mean level of serum creatinine(SCr)at Day 3 post-KT and at discharge was(155.7±63.5)and(97.6±28.7)μmol/L.The median follow-up period was 37.5 months.All 18 donors survived with normal renal function.And no proteinuria or kidney donation related hospitalization events occurred.SCr was(84.4±15.0)μmol/L at the last follow-up and there was no statistical significance as compared with SCr level at discharge( P=0.610). No recipient mortality or graft loss occurred.Levels of SCr were(92.1±18.3), (95.5±21.9)and(100.1±21.2)μmol/L at Month 12/24 and the last follow-up.No statistical difference existed in posttransplant SCr level at these follow-up timepoints( P=0.507). Posttransplant proteinuria occurred in 3 recipients(16.7%). In 8 donors, donated kidney glomerular filtration rate(GFR)was lower than 40 ml/(min·1.73m 2). No statistical difference existed in posttransplant SCr level between this group and higher GFR group( P>0.05). Conclusions:After thorough preoperative assessments, satisfactory short-term outcomes may be achieved for KT from living-related donors aged over 70 years.The long-term outcome should be further explored.

BACKGROUND:Heterotopic ossification is a dynamic growth process.Diverse heterotopic ossification subtypes have diverse etiologies or induction factors,but they exhibit a similar clinical process in the intermediate and later phases of the disease.Acquired heterotopic ossification produced by trauma and other circumstances has a high incidence. OBJECTIVE:To summarize the molecular biological mechanisms linked to the occurrence and progression of acquired heterotopic ossification in recent years. METHODS:The keywords"molecular biology,heterotopic ossification,mechanisms"were searched in CNKI,Wanfang,PubMed,Embase,Web of Science,and Google Scholar databases for articles published from January 2016 to August 2022.Supplementary searches were conducted based on the obtained articles.After the collected literature was screened,131 articles were finally included and summarized. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The occurrence and development of acquired heterotopic ossification is a dynamic process with certain concealment,making diagnosis and treatment of the disease difficult.(2)By reviewing relevant literature,it was found that acquired heterotopic ossification involves signaling pathways such as bone morphogenetic protein,transforming growth factor-β,Hedgehog,Wnt,and mTOR,as well as core factors such as Runx-2,vascular endothelial growth factor,hypoxia-inducing factor,fibroblast growth factor,and Sox9.The core mechanism may be the interaction between different signaling pathways,affecting the body's osteoblast precursor cells,osteoblast microenvironment,and related cytokines,thereby affecting the body's bone metabolism and leading to the occurrence of acquired heterotopic ossification.(3)In the future,it is possible to take the heterotopic ossification-related single-cell osteogenic homeostasis as the research direction,take the osteoblast precursor cells-osteogenic microenvironment-signaling pathways and cytokines as the research elements,explore the characteristics of each element under different temporal and spatial conditions,compare the similarities and differences of the osteogenic homeostasis of different types and individuals,observe the regulatory mechanism of the molecular signaling network of heterotopic ossification from a holistic perspective.It is beneficial to the exploration of new methods for the future clinical prevention and treatment of heterotopic ossification.(4)Meanwhile,the treatment methods represented by traditional Chinese medicine and targeted therapy have become research hotspots in recent years.How to link traditional Chinese medicine with the osteogenic homeostasis in the body and combine it with targeted therapy is also one of the future research directions.(5)At present,the research on acquired heterotopic ossification is still limited to basic experimental research and the clinical prevention and treatment methods still have defects such as uncertain efficacy and obvious side effects.The safety and effectiveness of relevant targeted prevention and treatment drugs in clinical application still need to be verified.Future research should focus on clinical prevention and treatment based on basic experimental research combined with the mechanism of occurrence and development.

Objective: To investigate the correlation between magnetic resonance imaging-based vertebral bone quality (VBQ) score and screw loosening after dynamic pedicle screw fixation with polyetheretherketone (PEEK) rods, and evaluate its predictive value. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the patients who underwent dynamic pedicle screw fixation with PEEK rods from March 2017 to June 2022. Data on age, sex, body mass index, hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia history, long-term smoking, alcohol consumption, VBQ score, L1–4 average Hounsfield unit (HU) value, surgical fixation length, and the lowest instrumented vertebra were collected. Logistic regression analysis was employed to assess the relationship between VBQ score and pedicle screw loosening (PSL). Results: A total of 24 patients experienced PSL after surgery (20.5%). PSL group and non-PSL group showed statistical differences in age, number of fixed segments, fixation to the sacrum, L1–4 average HU value, and VBQ score (p < 0.05). The VBQ score in the PSL group was higher than that in the non-PSL group (3.56 ± 0.45 vs. 2.77 ± 0.31, p < 0.001). In logistic regression analysis, VBQ score (odds ratio, 3.425; 95% confidence interval, 1.552–8.279) were identified as independent risk factors for screw loosening. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for VBQ score predicting PSL was 0.819 (p < 0.05), with the optimal threshold of 3.15 (sensitivity, 83.1%; specificity, 80.5%). Conclusion The VBQ score can independently predict postoperative screw loosening in patients undergoing lumbar dynamic pedicle screw fixation with PEEK rods, and its predictive value is comparable to HU value.
