OBJECTIVE: To investigate the efficacy and safety of combination regimen containing daratumumab in multiple myeloma (MM) patients. METHODS: The clinical data of 14 newly diagnosed MM patients and 58 relapsed refractory MM patients treated with combination regimen containing daratumumab from November 2020 to March 2023 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University were retrospectively analyzed. The efficacy and safety of combination regimen were analyzed. RESULTS: The median age of the 72 patients was 62 (38-78) years, including 35 males and 37 females. The overall response rate (ORR) of patients receiving first-line, second-line, and third-line or above treatment was 92.9% (13/14), 68.2% (30/44), and 42.9% (6/14), respectively. The median progression-free survival (PFS) was not reached, 15.4 months, and 9.7 months in three groups, respectively (all P <0.05), while the median overall survival (OS) was all not reached. Among relapsed refractory patients, the ORR of those treated with DVd, DPd and DRd regimen was 50.0% (12/24), 40.0% (4/10) and 100% (10/10), the median PFS was 2.8 months, 10.3 months and not reached, and the median OS was 15.4 months, not reached and not reached, respectively. Furthermore, the PFS and OS in the DRd group were superior to those in the other two groups (all P <0.05). Cox univariate and multivariate analysis showed that lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) ≥250 U/L and extramedullary disease were independent adverse prognostic factors for PFS, and LDH ≥250 U/L was also an independent adverse prognostic factor for OS. Hematologic adverse reactions were mainly lymphopenia (87.5%) and thrombocytopenia (52.8%), while non-hematologic adverse reactions were mainly infusion-related reactions (19.4%) and infections (11.1%). CONCLUSIONS The combination regimens containing daratumumab can be used as first-line treatment for patients with newly diagnosed MM. In patients with relapsed refractory MM, early use of regimens containing daratumumab may improve treatment response rate and prolong PFS. The DRd regimen has better therapeutic response and survival advantages. LDH is an independent prognostic factor affecting PFS and OS in MM patients.

BACKGROUND: The association of systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) with prognosis of coronary artery disease (CAD) patients has never been investigated in a large sample with long-term follow-up. This study aimed to explore the association of SIRI with all-cause and cause-specific mortality in a nationally representative sample of CAD patients from United States. METHODS: A total of 3386 participants with CAD from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999-2018 were included in this study. Cox proportional hazards model, restricted cubic spline (RCS), and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) were performed to investigate the association of SIRI with all-cause and cause-specific mortality. Piece-wise linear regression and sensitivity analyses were also performed. RESULTS: During a median follow-up of 7.7 years, 1454 all-cause mortality occurred. After adjusting for confounding factors, higher lnSIRI was significantly associated with higher risk of all-cause (HR = 1.16, 95% CI: 1.09-1.23) and CVD mortality (HR = 1.17, 95% CI: 1.05-1.30) but not cancer mortality (HR = 1.17, 95% CI: 0.99-1.38). The associations of SIRI with all-cause and CVD mortality were detected as J-shaped with threshold values of 1.05935 and 1.122946 for SIRI, respectively. ROC curves showed that lnSIRI had robust predictive effect both in short and long terms. CONCLUSIONS SIRI was independently associated with all-cause and CVD mortality, and the dose-response relationship was J-shaped. SIRI might serve as a valid predictor for all-cause and CVD mortality both in the short and long terms.

Functional dyspepsia (FD), characterized by persistent or recurrent dyspeptic symptoms without identifiable organic, systemic or metabolic causes, is an increasingly recognized global health issue. The objective of this guideline is to equip clinicians and nursing professionals with evidence-based strategies for the management and treatment of adult patients with FD using traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). The Guideline Development Group consulted existing TCM consensus documents on FD and convened a panel of 35 clinicians to generate initial clinical queries. To address these queries, a systematic literature search was conducted across PubMed, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP Database, China Biology Medicine (SinoMed) Database, Wanfang Database, Traditional Medicine Research Data Expanded (TMRDE), and the Traditional Chinese Medical Literature Analysis and Retrieval System (TCMLARS). The evidence from the literature was critically appraised using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development, and Evaluation (GRADE) approach. The strength of the recommendations was ascertained through a consensus-building process involving TCM and allopathic medicine experts, methodologists, pharmacologists, nursing specialists, and health economists, leveraging their collective expertise and empirical knowledge. The guideline comprises a total of 43 evidence-informed recommendations that span a range of clinical aspects, including the pathogenesis according to TCM, diagnostic approaches, therapeutic interventions, efficacy assessments, and prognostic considerations.

Processing for deodorization is widely used in the production of animal-derived Chinese medicinal materials. In this study, Heracles Neo ultra-fast gas-phase electronic nose combined with chemometrics was employed to analyze the overall odor difference of Cervi Cornu Pantotrichum(focusing on that derived from Cervus nippon Temminck in this study) before and after processing. The results showed that the electronic nose effectively distinguished between the medicinal materials and decoction pieces of Cervi Cornu Pantotrichum. HS-GC-MS was used to identify and quantify the volatile components in the medicinal materials and decoction pieces of Cervi Cornu Pantotrichum, and 35 and 37 volatile components were detected in the medicinal materials and decoction pieces, respectively. The medicinal materials and decoction pieces contained 28 common volatile components contributing to the odor of Cervi Cornu Pantotrichum. The odor activity value(OAV) of each volatile component was calculated based on the olfactory threshold and relative content. The results showed that there were 17 key odor substances such as isovaleraldehyde, 2-methylbutanal, isobutyraldehyde, hexanal, and methanethiol in the medicinal materials and decoction pieces of Cervi Cornu Pantotrichum. All of them had bad odor and were the main source of the odor of Cervi Cornu Pantotrichum. The results of principal component analysis(PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA) showed that there were significant differences in volatile components between the medicinal materials and decoction pieces of Cervi Cornu Pantotrichum. Based on the thresholds of P<0.05 and Variable Importance in Projection(VIP)>1, 21 differential volatile odor components were screened out. Among them, isopentanol, isovaleraldehyde, 2-methylbutanal, n-nonanal, and dimethylamine were the key differential odor compounds between the medicinal materials and decoction pieces of Cervi Cornu Pantotrichum. The odor compounds and their relative content reduced, and some flavor substances such as esters were produced after processing with wine, which was the main reason for the reduction of the odor after processing of Cervi Cornu Pantotrichum.

With the rapid development of competitive sports, the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is on the rise. Such injuries may shorten athletes′ career and lead to other long-term adverse consequences. Although athletes generally recover well after ACL reconstruction, many still struggle to return to their pre-injury performance levels. Advances in the understanding of ACL anatomy and injury mechanisms, along with the evolution of surgical techniques and rehabilitation methods, have provided more individualized and tailored options for athletes following ACL injuries. However, there is currently no consensus in China regarding surgical and rehabilitation strategies for competitive athletes aiming to return to sports after ACL injuries. To this end, the Sports Medicine Committee of the Chinese Research Hospital Association and the Editorial Board of the Chinese Journal of Trauma jointly formulated the Expert consensus on surgical treatment and rehabilitation for competitive sports athletes returning to sports after anterior cruciate ligament injury ( version 2025), and presented 14 recommendations covering surgical indications, preoperative rehabilitation, surgical timing, surgical strategies and postoperative rehabilitation strategies, aiming to improve the surgical treatment and rehabilitation system for ACL injuries in competitive athletes and facilitate their return to high-level sports performance after injury.

Objective:To integrate implicit templates with deep learning techniques, a novel neural network, the tooth-deformable deep implicit network (T-DDIN), was constructed to achieve high-precision shape completion of tooth defects in a personalized manner.Methods:A total of 550 intraoral scan models were collected from patients treated at the Department of Orthodontics and Department of Prosthodontics, West China Hospital of Stomatology, Sichuan University (500 for training and 50 for testing), between March 2022 and March 2024. T-DDIN reconstructed defective tooth morphology using an implicit template and a latent encoding prediction network. During model evaluation, Class Ⅱ cavity defects and occlusal wear defects were simulated in the test set. Morphological restoration was performed using both traditional computer aided design (CAD) methods and the T-DDIN deep learning approach. The two methods were compared based on three-dimensional deviation, occlusal adjustment volumes, cusp angle deviation, and restoration time.Results:The T-DDIN group demonstrated significantly lower three-dimensional deviation for Class Ⅱ cavity defects and occlusal wear restoration [(0.14±0.05) and (0.16±0.09) mm], occlusal adjustment volumes [(0.44±0.03) and (0.49±0.03) mm 3], and difference value of the tooth cusp angles (5.69°±1.90° and 6.04°±0.53°) compared to the traditional CAD group (both P<0.001). No significant differences were observed within the T-DDIN group between the two defect types in terms of three-dimensional deviation ( P=0.098) or occlusal adjustment volume ( P=0.154) or difference value of the tooth cusp angles ( P=0.196). However, in the traditional CAD group, three-dimensional deviation, occlusal adjustment volume and difference value of the tooth cusp angles was significantly higher in occlusal wear restorations than in Class Ⅱ cavity defects restorations ( P<0.001). The T-DDIN group, which involved Class Ⅱ cavity defects and occlusal wear, demonstrated significantly less recovery time of morphology (37.2±7.7) and (39.4±6.2) s compared to the traditional CAD group ( P<0.001). Conclusions:T-DDIN demonstrated superior stability and accuracy in morphological reconstruction for various types of dental defects while significantly reducing restoration time.

[Purpose]To analyze the survival of lung cancer,liver cancer and stomach cancer in Jiashan County,Zhejiang Province from 2006 to 2020.[Methods]From January 1,2006 to De-cember 31,2020,new cases of lung cancer,liver cancer and stomach cancer were collected in Jiashan County,Zhejiang Province.The 5-year observed survival rate(OSR),relative survival rate(RSR)and age-standardized relative survival rate(ARSR)by sex and age were calculated from 2006-2010,2011-2015 and 2016-2020.The observed and relative survivals were calculated using the lifetime table and Ederer Ⅱ methods,respectively,and age standardized using the Inter-national Cancer Survival Standard.Joinpoint software was utilized to compute the average annual percentage change(AAPC)for analyzing trends in various survival rates from 2006 to 2020.[Re-sults]The 5-year RSR of lung cancer,liver cancer and stomach cancer increased from 8.1％,4.8％and 23.2％(2006-2010)to 36.0％,17.6％and 48.2％(2016-2020),showing an increasing trend(AAPC=14.4％,AAPC=11.4％,AAPC=6.4％,respectively,all P＜0.05).Accordingly,the 5-year RSR of three types of malignant tumors showed an increasing trend in both men and women(all P＜0.05)except liver cancer in women(P＞0.05).The 5-year RSR of three types of malignant tu-mors in the age groups of 0～64 and 65+years old showed a significant increasing trend(all P＜0.05).The increase of lung cancer and liver cancer was greater in the age group of 0～64 years old,and the increase of gastric cancer was greater in the age group of 65+years old.[Conclusion]The 5-year survival rates of the three types of malignant tumors with the highest mortality risk in Jiashan County,Zhejiang Province all increased significantly from 2006 to 2020,indicating that the pre-vention and treatment effect of malignant tumors is significant,but the survival rate of malignant tumors varied significantly among different populations,so targeted intervention should be carried out.
