Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of hydroxychloroquine sulfate (HCQ) on pregnancy outcomes in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods One hundred and sixty-six pregnant patients with SLE from Janurary 2010 to December 2015 were studied retrospectively . Fifty-two patients were excluded due to new-onset during pregnancy, active disease or termination of pregnancy as a result of continuous intaking of immunosuppressant. The remaining 114 SLE patients in stable condition before pregnancy were divided into the following two groups: prednisone combined with HCQ and prednisone alone. The effects of HCQ on disease activity and pregnancy outcome were analyzed. Differences between groups were analyzed by chi-square test. Results A total of 90 patients (78.9%) had successful pregnancy. Among 71 patients treated with prednisone combined with HCQ, 60 patients (84.5%) had no disease flare and 62 cases (87.3%) had successful pregnancy. Among 43 patients treated with prednisone alone, 28 patients (65.1%) had no disease flare and 28 cases (65.1%) had successful pregnancy. No abnormality of neither visual field nor fundus was observed among patients treated with HCQ. No congenital abnormalities were found among new born infants. Conclusion HCQ intake during pregnancy in SLE patients can reduce disease flare and improve the pregnancy outcome, indicating that HCQ is safe for SLE patients during pregnancy.

Objective:To search the best evidence for perioperative nutrition management in pancreatic cancer patients, so as to provide evidence basis for optimization of perioperative nutrition management in pancreatic cancer patients.Methods:Evidence on perioperative nutrition management for pancreatic cancer patients was systematically searched in Cochrane Library, British Medical Journal (BMJ) Best Practice, UpToDate, National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence, PubMed, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, WanFang Data, VIP, Chinese Medical Association Network and other domestic and foreign databases and nutrition related websites. The search types included clinical decision-making, guidelines, expert consensus, evidence summary, and systematic review. The search period was from database establishment to February 10, 2023.Results:A total of 17 articles were included, including 8 guidelines, 6 expert consensus, and 3 systematic reviews. A total of 26 pieces of evidence were summarized from 6 aspects, including management general principles, energy and protein requirements, nutritional risk screening and assessment, nutritional support, complication management, and post discharge management.Conclusions:The process of extracting the best evidence of perioperative nutrition management for pancreatic cancer patients is scientific and rigorous. Medical and nursing staff can improve the quality of nutrition management for patients with pancreatic cancer and promote the recovery of patients according to the actual clinical situation.
