Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma(NDMM)with thrombocytopenia.Methods:Clinical data of 529 patients with NDMM admitted to The Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University between January 2012 and December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were categorized into thrombocytopenia and nor-mal platelet count groups based on their platelet count levels.Results:A total of 529 patients with NDMM were included in this study,with 108(20.42%)patients in the thrombocytopenia group.The median progression-free survival(mPFS)was 30.64 months(95%confidence in-terval[CI]:23.43-37.85)in the thrombocytopenia group,which was shorter than that in the normal platelet count group(41.39 months[95%CI:37.37-45.39],P=0.002).The median overall survival(mOS)was 40.59 months(95%CI:30.61-50.57)in the thrombocytopenia group,which was shorter than that in the normal platelet count group(60.92 months[95%CI:54.54-67.29],P<0.001).Multivariate Cox regression analysis identified thrombocytopenia as a risk factor for OS in patients with NDMM(HR=1.238[95%CI:1.16-1.952],P=0.03).Conclusions:The prognosis of patients with NDMM with thrombocytopenia was worse than that of patients with NDMM who had normal platelet levels.Thrombocytopenia may serve as a poor prognostic indicator for NDMM.

OBJECTIVE To study the pharmacokinetic characteristics of ciprofol in pregnant and fetal rats， and provide reference for the application of ciprofol in cesarean section. METHODS Eight pregnant rats were selected. A single dose of 2.4 mg/kg of ciprofol was administered via the tail vein. One fetal rat was selected at 2， 4， 8， 12， 16， 25， 35， 45， 60， and 90 minutes respectively after ciprofol administration. Subsequently， whole blood samples were collected simultaneously from both the pregnant rats and fetal rats. HPLC-MS/MS method was used to determine the concentration of ciprofol in the bodies of pregnant and fetal rats. The ratios of fetal-to-maternal blood concentrations （F/M ratios） at each time point were calculated， and the F/M-time curves were plotted. Subsequently， non-compartmental pharmacokinetic parameters were computed using DAS 2.0 software. RESULTS Compared with pregnant rats， cmax， AUC0-90 min and AUC0-∞ of ciprofol in fetal rats were decreased significantly， while MRT was increased significantly （P＜0.05）. The F/M curve of ciprofol initially increased and then decreased， and between 0.16- 0.84， reaching a maximum value of 0.84 at 45 minutes. CONCLUSIONS Ciprofol can penetrate the placental barrier， and there are significant differences in pharmacokinetic parameters between pregnant and fetal rats. Moreover， the exposure level of ciprofol in fetal rats is much lower than that in pregnant rats. Therefore， ciprofol shows promise as an ideal anesthetic agent for cesarean section delivery.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the impact of Netupitant and palonosetron hydrochloride capsules （NEPA） on the pharmacokinetics of Paclitaxel for injection （albumin bound） （i. e. albumin-bound paclitaxel） under different intestinal microenvironment conditions. METHODS Male SD rats were divided into a normal group and a model group （n＝16）. Rats in the model group were intragastrically administered vancomycin solution to establish an intestinal disorder model. The next day after modeling， intestinal microbiota diversity was analyzed， and the mRNA expressions of cytochrome P450 3A1 （CYP3A1） and CYP2C11 in small intestine and liver tissues as well as those protein expressions in liver tissue were measured. Male SD rats were grouped as described above （n＝16）. The normal group was subdivided into the TP chemotherapy group （TP-1 group） and the TP chemotherapy+NEPA group （TP+NEPA-1 group）； the model group was subdivided into the TP chemotherapy group （TP-2 group） and the TP chemotherapy+NEPA group （TP+NEPA-2 group） （n＝8）. Rats in the TP+NEPA-1 and TP+NEPA-2 groups received a single intragastric dose of NEPA suspension （25.8 mg/kg， calculated by netupitant）. One hour later， all four groups received a single tail vein injection of albumin-bound paclitaxel and cisplatin. Blood samples were collected at different time points after the last administration. Using azithromycin as the internal standard， plasma paclitaxel concentrations were determined by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The main pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using DAS 2.0 software and compared between groups. RESULTS Compared with the normal group， the model group showed significantly decreased Chao1 and Shannon indexes （P＜0.05）， significant alterations in microbiota composition and relative abundance， and significantly downregulated expressions of CYP3A1 mRNA in liver tissue and CYP2C11 mRNA in both small intestine and liver tissues （P＜0.05）. Compared with the TP-1 group， the AUC0－t， AUC0－∞， MRT0－t of paclitaxel in the TP-2 group， the cmax， AUC0－t， AUC0－∞ of paclitaxel in the TP+NEPA-1 group and TP+NEPA-2 group were significantly increased or prolonged； CL of paclitaxel in the TP-2 group， Vd and CL of paclitaxel in the TP+NEPA-1 group and the TP+NEPA-2 group were significantly decreased or shortened （P＜0.05）. Compared with the TP-2 group， cmax of paclitaxel in the TP+NEPA-2 group was significantly increased， and Vd and MRT0－t were significantly decreased or shortened （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Intestinal microbiota disorder affects the mRNA expressions of CYP3A1 and CYP2C11， leading to decreased clearance and increased systemic exposure of paclitaxel. Concomitant administration of NEPA under normal intestinal microbiota condition increases paclitaxel exposure. However， under conditions of intestinal microbiota disorder， concomitant administration of NEPA has a limited impact on paclitaxel systemic exposure.
