OBJECTIVE To conduct a comprehensive clinical evaluation of four nucleoside （acid） analogues that have been approved and marketed in China， such as entecavir， tenofovir disoproxil fumarate， tenofovir alafenamide fumarate， and tenofovir amibufenamide. METHODS According to the Guideline for the Administration of Clinical Comprehensive Evaluation of Drugs （2021 edition， trial implementation）， a comprehensive search was conducted across databases including CNKI， Wanfang Data， VIP， PubMed， the Cochrane Library， Embase， as well as relevant official websites. Drug package inserts， guidelines， consensus statements， and relevant literature for the four drugs were collected and subjected to a comprehensive evaluation across six dimensions： safety， efficacy， cost-effectiveness， innovativeness， suitability， and accessibility. RESULTS The scores for entecavir in terms of safety， efficacy， cost-effectiveness， innovativeness， suitability， and accessibility-along with its comprehensive score-were 13， 14， 13， 10， 18， and 6， totaling 74 points. For tenofovir disoproxil fumarate， the respective scores were 13， 17， 18， 8， 18， and 7， totaling 81 points. For tenofovir alafenamide fumarate， the scores were 14， 20， 12， 8， 18， and 5， totaling 77 points. Finally， for tenofovir amibufenamide， the scores were 10.5， 17， 10， 6， 15， and 4， totaling 62.5 points. CONCLUSIONS Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate， with the highest score， is recommended as the first-line option， suitable for adults， children， and pregnant women. However， caution is warranted for potential renal impairment. Tenofovir alafenamide fumarate is recommended as a second-line alternative， particularly for individuals at high risk for bone and renal damage. Entecavir has a score similar to tenofovir alafenamide fumarate but requires dosing on an empty stomach and dose adjustment based on renal function of patients. Tenofovir amibufenamide received the lowest score and is considered a weak recommendation. The clinical application of these nucleoside （acid） analogues should be individualized based on the patient’s age， physiological status， and risk factors.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficacy of Shenqi Yangxin decoction in the treatment of ischemic cardiomyopathy （ICM） with Qi and Yin deficiency and blood stasis syndrome and its effect on serum hydrogen sulfide （H₂S） and calcium ion （Ca²⁺）. MethodsA total of 64 ICM patients with Qi and Yin deficiency and blood stasis syndrome who met the inclusion criteria were randomly divided into a control group （n=32） and a treatment group （n=32）. All patients received conventional Western medicine treatment. The treatment group was additionally given Shenqi Yangxin decoction. The TCM syndrome score， Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire （MLHFQ） score， left ventricular ejection fraction （LVEF）， N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide （NT-proBNP）， 6-minute walk test （6MWT）， New York Heart Association （NYHA） cardiac function classification， and serum H₂S and Ca²⁺ levels were compared between the two groups pre- and post-treatment. ResultsTwo cases dropped out from each group during the study. Finally， 30 patients in each group were included in the analysis. There were no significant differences in age， gender， course of coronary heart disease， underlying diseases， and laboratory tests between the two groups. Compared with baseline， the TCM syndrome score， MLHFQ score， and NT-proBNP in both treatment group and control group decreased significantly （P<0.01）， LVEF， 6MWT， and H₂S increased significantly （P<0.01）， and serum Ca²⁺ increased （P<0.05）. Compared with the control group after treatment， the MLHFQ score and NT-proBNP in the treatment group decreased （P<0.05）， the TCM syndrome score decreased significantly （P<0.01）， LVEF， 6MWT， and serum Ca²⁺ increased （P<0.05）， and H₂S increased significantly （P<0.01）. The improvement degree of the NYHA cardiac function classification in the treatment group was higher than that in the control group， but there was no significant difference. ConclusionShenqi Yangxin decoction is effective in treating ICM patients with Qi and Yin deficiency and blood stasis， which could significantly improve cardiac function and quality of life， and its therapeutic effect may be related to the regulation of serum H₂S and Ca²⁺ levels.

ObjectiveTo analyze the incidence and spatiotemporal distribution of typhus fever in Baoshan City, Yunnan Province from 2005 to 2023, to identify high-risk populations and regions, so as to provide a scientific basis for optimizing the allocation of local prevention and control resources and developing targeted intervention measures. MethodsData of typhus fever cases in Baoshan City from 2005 to 2023 were obtained from the Infectious Disease Information Management System of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Descriptive epidemiological methods were used to analyze the temporal, spatial and demographic distribution of typhus fever cases. Spatial clustering was assessed using spatial dynamic window scan statistics (circular and elliptical windows), flexible spatial scan statistics, and local spatial autocorrelation methods (including local Moran’s I, local Geary’s C, and Getis-Ord G_i*). Retrospective spatiotemporal scan statistics were employed to detect spatiotemporal clusters. ResultsA total of 1 099 typhus fever cases were reported in Baoshan City from 2005 to 2023. The incidence rate peaked at 6.31/ 100 000 in 2007, followed by a decline until reaching its lowest level at 0.21/100 000 in 2015 , and subsequently rebounded during 2016‒2023. The highest proportion of cases was among children under 10 years of age (31.12%), and the top three occupations of cases were farmers, students, and children, accounting for 88.62% of all cases. Cases occurred predominantly between June and September each year. The incidence was relatively high in Jiucheng Town (62.58/100 000), Yaoguan Town (57.15/100 000), and Dianyang Town (46.81/100 000) of Shidian County. Spatial clustering analyses indicated that high-risk areas were mainly located in the southern part of Baoshan City, showing a south-to-north trend. Spatiotemporal scan analyses identified five clusters, with the most likely cluster centered around Yaoguan Town, covering ten towns (subdistricts) during the period 2007‒2010. ConclusionThe incidence of typhus fever in Baoshan City exhibits a clear seasonal and spatial clustering pattern, with peak incidence occurring in summer and autumn. Spatially, cases are primarily distributed in the southern part of Baoshan City, and high-risk clusters exhibit a south-to-north trend. Farmers, students, and children are the high-risk groups.

Objective The present study aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy of hydraulic sinus floor elevation for the treatment of insufficient bone height in the posterior maxilla through a systematic review and Meta-analysis, so as to provide evidence for clinical practice. Methods Databases including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Clinical Trials.gov were searched up to May 2025. Randomized controlled trials, non-randomized controlled trials, cohort studies, cross-sectional studies, and case-control studies that involved patients receiving hydraulic sinus floor elevation with simultaneous or delayed implant placement were included. Exclusion criteria comprised in vitro studies, animal experiments, narrative reviews, unpublished data, commentaries or expert opinions, studies with unclear sample sizes, and publications without full-text access or unavailable outcome data. Three investigators independently performed literature screening and quality assessment. A single-arm Meta-analysis was conducted using Stata 18.0 for studies meeting the inclusion criteria. The outcome measures were the incidence of sinus membrane perforation, implant survival rate, and endo-sinus bone gain. The Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 (RoB2) tool and the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) critical appraisal checklist were used to assess the methodological quality of randomized controlled trials and non-randomized controlled trials, respectively. The overall certainty of evidence was assessed using the GRADE（Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation）system. Results Nineteen studies with 982 patients, 1 151 elevated sites, and 1 263 implants were finally included. The Meta-analysis showed that the intraoperative sinus membrane perforation rate of hydraulic sinus floor elevation was 2.0% [ES = 0.02, 95% CI (0.00, 0.04)] (18 studies, 1 061 sites); the implant survival rate was 99.0% [ES = 0.99, 95% CI (0.97, 1.00)] (17 studies, 1 253 implants); and the mean vertical bone gain was 7.80 mm. For this outcome, heterogeneity among studies was extremely high (I2 = 98.6%), thus only descriptive analysis was performed. Egger's test revealed no significant publication bias for the three outcomes. GRADE grading indicated very low certainty of evidence for mucosal perforation, implant survival rate, and endo sinus bone gain. Conclusion Current preliminary evidence suggests that hydraulic sinus lift may be a safe minimally invasive technique, but the evidence is very low, and more high quality, long term follow up randomized controlled clinical trials are still needed for further verification.

A 75-year-old female patient with postoperative colon cancer received fruquintinib (5 mg once daily, 3 weeks on and 1 week off per 4-week cycle). The patient had normal blood pressure in the past, and approximately one week after medication, she developed hypertension with systolic blood pressure 180-190 mmHg and unknown diastolic pressure. The patient′s blood pressure was with adequate control after self-administration of nifedipine sustained-release tablets twice (20 mg/dose). After 3 weeks of fruquintinib treatment, bilateral lower limb edema occurred in the patient, leading to a 1-week drug discontinuation. Upon resuming the medication for 1 day, the patient suddenly developed dyspnea and loss of consciousness. Chest CT revealed signs of heart failure. Laboratory tests showed high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) 0.27 μg/L, creatine kinase (CK)-MB 7.13 μg/L, myoglobin 132.88 μg/L, and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) 4 039.8 ng/L. Fruquintinib was discontinued, and the patient received myocardial nutritional support, diuretics, anticoagulants, hepatoprotective agents, and potassium supplementation, etc. On day 2, the patient regained consciousness with hs-cTnI 0.28 μg/L, CK-MB 4.63 μg/L, myoglobin 34.25 μg/L, and NT-proBNP 10 181.3 ng/L. Antiplatelet therapy, diuretics, lipid-lowering agents, and antihypertensive treatment were initiated. On day 3, color doppler echocardiography confirmed myocardial infarction complicated by heart failure. Fruquintinib-induced acute non-ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction with acute heart failure was considered. On day 6 of fruquintinib discontinuation, NT-proBNP decreased to 295.8 ng/L, and all laboratory test parameters normalized on day 9. One month later, repeated tests showed no abnormalities in the myocardial enzyme.

Objective:To analyze the prevalence of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and influencing factors of adults in Hebei Province, and provide scientific evidence for the development of comprehensive CKD prevention and control strategies.Methods:In China Adult Chronic Disease and Nutrition Surveillance in Hebei in 2018, a total of 7 562 permanent residents aged ≥18 years were selected by multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling from 13 surveillance points in Hebei for questionnaire survey, medical examination and laboratory test.Results:A total of 1 067 CKD patients were detected in the adults aged ≥18 years in this survey, with a weighted prevalence rate of 12.10%. The results of multivariate analysis showed that the daily total static behavior time ( OR=1.07, 95% CI: 1.04-1.09), living in rural area ( OR=1.50, 95% CI: 1.14-1.97), coal use ( OR=1.37, 95% CI: 1.16-1.61), coal gas/liquefied gas/natural gas/biogas use ( OR=2.92, 95% CI: 2.40-3.54) and solar energy/electricity use ( OR=1.75, 95% CI: 1.36-2.25), insufficient fruit intake ( OR=1.39, 95% CI: 1.06-1.83), insufficient physical activity ( OR=1.35, 95% CI: 1.11-1.64), suffering from hypertension ( OR=1.80, 95% CI: 1.44-2.24) and suffering from diabetes ( OR=1.77, 95% CI: 1.27-2.45) were risk factors for CKD in adults in Hebei. High education level ( OR=0.41, 95% CI: 0.19-0.91), excessive drinking ( OR=0.53, 95% CI: 0.28-0.99), central obesity ( OR=0.75, 95% CI: 0.58-0.97), history of allergic diseases ( OR=0.44, 95% CI: 0.27-0.72) were protective factors for CKD. Conclusions:The prevalence of CKD in adults in Hebei was relatively high, especially in those who had too long average daily static behavior, lived in rural area, used coal, gas/liquefied gas/natural gas/biogas, solar energy/electricity, had inadequate intake of fruits, lacked physical activity and suffered from hypertension and diabetes. It is necessary to pay attention to the early prevention and treatment of CKD, strengthen the health education about healthy lifestyle and improve the management of patients with chronic disease, such as hypertension and diabetes, to further reduce the risk for CKD.

Objective:To explore the surgical efficacy of cervical cerclage with cervical length (CL) <10 mm and emergency cerclage.Methods:From January 2013 to June 2022, a total of 98 singleton pregnant women who underwent ultrasound-indicated cervical cerclage because of CL<10 mm in the second trimester and underwent emergency cervical cerclage because of cervical dilation found by physical examination in Peking University First Hospital were enrolled. The differences in clinical data between the <34 weeks delivery group (25 cases) and the ≥34 weeks delivery group (73 cases) were compared. Meanwhile, according to different cervical status, they were divided into CL<10 mm group (43 cases) and cervical dilatation group (55 cases), and the cervical dilatation group was further divided into cervical dilatation <4 cm group and cervical dilatation ≥4 cm group. The clinical data and pregnancy outcomes of pregnant women with different cervical status were compared.Results:(1) There were significant differences in the proportion of preoperative CL<10 mm and the degree of preoperative cervical dilation between the <34 weeks delivery group and the ≥34 weeks delivery group (all P<0.05). (2) After cervical cerclage, compared with women in the cervical dilatation group, the prolonged gestational age in the CL<10 mm group was longer [(10.5±4.6) vs (14.3±3.4) weeks], the gestational age at delivery was later (median: 35.7 vs 38.0 weeks), the preterm birth rates before 37 and 34 weeks were lower, the late abortion rate was lower [9% (5/55) vs 0 (0/43)], and the newborn birth weight was higher, the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). (3) Compared with the cervical dilation ≥4 cm group, the prolonged gestational age of the cervical dilatation <4 cm group was longer [(7.5±5.3) vs (11.1±4.2) weeks], the gestational age at delivery was later (median: 29.2 vs 36.0 weeks), and the birth weight of the newborn was higher (all P<0.05). The late abortion rate of cervical dilatation <4 cm group was lower than that of cervical dilatation ≥4 cm group [7% (3/45) vs 2/10; P=0.220]. Conclusions:Timely cervical cerclage in individuals with CL<10 mm could reduce preterm birth rate before 34 weeks gestation, and the pregnancy outcome is better than that of individuals with cervical dilation. Moreover, the pregnancy outcome of cervical cerclage in women with cervical dilation <4 cm is significantly better than that in women with cervical dilatation ≥4 cm.

Alzheimer's disease(AD)is an age-related neurodegenerative disease with an increasing incidence worldwide.A large number of studies have shown that the incidence rates of hearing loss is high in patients with mild cognitive impairment and Alzheimer's disease,and may be a risk factor for the occurrence and development of cognitive impairment.There is an interaction between the two,but the causal mechanism is still unclear.Early screening and management of hearing impairment may play an important role in the early diagnosis,symptom im-provement and disease progression of Alzheimer's disease.This paper reviews relevant clinical and basic research to discuss the correlation between hearing loss and Alzheimer's disease,and the possible causal mechanism between them.

Objective:To summarize and analyze the clinical characteristics of patients with antibody mediated rejection (AMR) after lung transplantation at China-Japan Friendship Hospital, thereby providing references for clinical management.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted by collecting clinical data of 34 lung transplant recipients (LTRs) diagnosed with AMR between March 2017 and September 2023. The diagnosis of AMR was based on the 2019 International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation (ISHLT) consensus. Baseline characteristics, primary diseases, pre-diagnostic events, diagnosis, treatment regimens, and outcomes were summarized and analyzed. According to outcomes at the final follow-up (March 31, 2024), patients were divided into survival group (22 cases) and death group (12 cases), and the differences in clinical characteristics and treatments were compared.Results:The incidence of AMR among 551 LTRs was 6.2% (34/551). Among the 34 AMR recipients, 79.4% (27/34) were male, and the median age was 64.0 (54.5, 67.3) years. The primary underlying disease was interstitial lung disease (79.4%). Based on diagnostic classification, 73.5%(25/34) were clinical AMR and 26.5% (9/34) were subclinical AMR. Regarding diagnostic levels, 11.8%(4/34) were proven AMR, 50.0% (17/34) probable AMR, and 38.2%(13/34) possible AMR. Pre-transplant sensitization was detected in 2 patients (5.9%). Post-transplant HLA antibody testing revealed 79.4%(27/34) positive for HLA class Ⅱ antibodies (most commonly DQ7) and 85.3%(29/34) had newly developed HLA antibodies, of which 82.4%(28/34) were de novo donor-specific antibodies (DSA). The most common clinical manifestations were exertional dyspnea(67.6%) and decreased pulse oxygen saturation(47.1%). Chest imaging mainly showed new consolidations or patchy opacities (55.9%), followed by ground-glass opacities (32.4%) and pleural effusion (20.6%). Regarding treatment, 94.1% (32/34) received intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG), 88.2%(30/34) underwent plasma exchange, and 41.2%(14/34) received intravenous glucocorticoid (IVGC). The most common regimens were "plasma exchange+IVIG" and "IVGC+plasma exchange+IVIG+rituximab", each used in 23.5%(8/34) of cases. The complete HLA antibody clearance rate after treatment was 38.2%. The mortality rates at 3 months, 1 year, and final follow-up after AMR diagnosis were 8.8%, 23.5%, and 35.3%, respectively, with a median survival time of 243.0(96.3, 572.3) days. The survival group had a significantly higher rate of tacrolimus-based triple immunosuppressive therapy (glucocorticoid+tacrolimus+mycophenolate moftil) compared to the death group [86.4% (19/22) vs 50.0% (6/12), P=0.040], while rituximab usage was higher in the death group [75.0% (9/12) vs 13.6% (3/22), P=0.008]. Conclusions:Although AMR after lung transplantation is relatively rare, its diagnosis is challenging, antibody clearance rate after treatment is low, and clinical outcomes are poor, requiring heightened clinical vigilance.
