OBJECTIVE To analyze the impact of intergenerational substitution effect of the drugs with the same indication on fund expenditures for national medical insurance for this indication in China, taking national medical insurance negotiated drugs for non-small cell lung cancer (hereinafter referred to as “NSCLC national negotiation drugs”) as an example. METHODS The sales amounts of 15 types of NSCLC national negotiated drugs in secondary and tertiary public hospitals across seven sample provinces from 2017 to 2023 were collected from the Pharmaceutical Drug Database of the China National Pharmaceutical Industry Information Center. A sliding t-test and Mann-Kendall trend test were used to evaluate the trends in sales amounts and DDDs. Taking epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-TKIs as examples, the generational substitution characteristics of these drugs were analyzed. RESULTS The change points of sales amounts and DDDs differed slightly across provinces; the change points of sales amount were mostly concentrated between the first quarter of 2019 and the second quarter of 2020, while those for DDDs were primarily concentrated in the first to second quarters of 2021. In five provinces, i.e. Beijing, Heilongjiang, Jiangsu, Sichuan and Shaanxi, sales amounts showed no significant upward trend after the breakpoints (P>0.05), whereas in Guangdong and Hubei, both sales amounts and DDDs continued to rise significantly following the breakpoints (P<0.05). Since 2020, the growth in sales amounts of EGFR-TKIs had slowed. After 2021, the sales amounts and DDDs of first- and second-generation EGFR-TKIs declined, while third-generation EGFR-TKIs showed clear substitution effects. The sales amounts of ALK-TKIs continuedto grow. However, the sales amounts and DDDs of first-generation ALK-TKIs had declined year by year, with second-generation ALK-TKIs demonstrating a significant substitution effect on first-generation ones, while third-generation ALK-TKIs had not yet shown a clear substitution trend. CONCLUSIONS With the annual access to and renewal of drugs in national medical insurance negotiations, the overall expenditure trend for NSCLC negotiated drugs comes to a plateau. The intergenerational substitution relationships of drugs with the same indication achieve a relative balance in fund expenditures for negotiated drugs with the same indication. It is recommended that pharmaceutical companies carefully consider their research pipelines, and that medical insurance authorities, during the renewal management process, pay attention to the impact of drug substitution effects on the overall actual expenditure of medical insurance funds for that specific target or the same indication, and scientifically evaluate the extent of price reductions during contract renewals.

ObjectiveBased on functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), we investigated the brain activity characteristics of gross motor tasks in children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and motor dysfunctions (MDs) to provide a theoretical basis for further understanding the mechanism of MDs in children with ASD and designing targeted intervention programs from a central perspective. MethodsAccording to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 48 children with ASD accompanied by MDs were recruited into the ASD group and 40 children with typically developing (TD) into the TD group. The fNIRS device was used to collect the information of blood oxygen changes in the cortical motor-related brain regions during single-handed bag throwing and tiptoe walking, and the differences in brain activation and functional connectivity between the two groups of children were analyzed from the perspective of brain activation and functional connectivity. ResultsCompared to the TD group, in the object manipulative motor task (one-handed bag throwing), the ASD group showed significantly reduced activation in both left sensorimotor cortex (SMC) and right secondary visual cortex (V2) (P<0.05), whereas the right pre-motor and supplementary motor cortex (PMC&SMA) had significantly higher activation (P<0.01) and showed bilateral brain region activity; in terms of brain functional integration, there was a significant decrease in the strength of brain functional connectivity (P<0.05) and was mainly associated with dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and V2. In the body stability motor task (tiptoe walking), the ASD group had significantly higher activation in motor-related brain regions such as the DLPFC, SMC, and PMC&SMA (P<0.05) and showed bilateral brain region activity; in terms of brain functional integration, the ASD group had lower strength of brain functional connectivity (P<0.05) and was mainly associated with PMC&SMA and V2. ConclusionChildren with ASD exhibit abnormal brain functional activity characteristics specific to different gross motor tasks in object manipulative and body stability, reflecting insufficient or excessive compensatory activation of local brain regions and impaired cross-regions integration, which may be a potential reason for the poorer gross motor performance of children with ASD, and meanwhile provides data support for further unraveling the mechanisms underlying the occurrence of MDs in the context of ASD and designing targeted intervention programs from a central perspective.

Objective:To establish a practical and systematic pre-deployment base-based training course for medical units in peacekeeping level-II hospitals.Methods:We surveyed the current status of pre-deployment training of medical teams in peacekeeping level-II hospitals, and organized expert discussions to preliminarily construct centralized training course contents. At the same time, the Delphi method was used to conduct two rounds of questionnaire-based consultation to evaluate the overall framework design of the course and the rationality and importance scores of each module. The contents of the pre-deployment training course were further selected and optimized based on the positive coefficient (%), authority coefficient (Cr), coefficient of concordance ( W), and coefficient of variation (Cv). Results:The contents of the pre-deployment training course for the medical units of peacekeeping level-II hospitals were preliminarily established. The experts scored high for the combat onsite first-aid skills module [rationality score, (9.32±0.75) points; importance score, (9.45±0.65) points] and the combat wound treatment module [rationality score, (9.33±0.75) points; importance score, (9.28±0.74) points], and scored lowest for the field survival module [rationality score, (7.95±2.28) points; importance score, (7.87±2.16) points].Conclusions:The established contents of the pre-deployment base-based training course for the medical units of peacekeeping level-II hospitals are reasonable and practical, which lays the foundation for perfecting the pre-deployment training system of peacekeeping medical teams.

Interleukin-35(IL-35)is an important immunosuppressive cytokine that has been shown to play a role in the immune response of various diseases.In this study,we cloned the coding sequence of human IL-35 gene,constructed single subunit expression vectors pXC17.4-p35 and pcDNA3.1(+)-EBI3,and co-transfected CHO-K1 cells to express IL-35 in vitro.No binding was found between subunits of p35 and EBI3.Knobs-into-Holes(KIH)can solve the problem of heavy chain mismatch of heterolo-gous antibodies.Therefore,expression vectors pXC17.4-p35-Fch and pcDNA3.1(+)-EBI3-Fck were constructed by fusing KIH structures on the basis of the original sequences to express the recombinant fu-sion protein of KIH-IL-35.The expression vectors of two subunits were exchanged at the same time to verify the influence of different vectors on the expression level of KIH-IL-35.The analysis of various pro-tein detection methods showed that the correct expression rate of KIH-IL-35 structure was significantly im-proved.Affinity purification of KIH-IL-35 was performed after large amount of expression,and the bind-ing activity of KIH-IL-35 to glycoprotein 130(gp130)was detected by ELISA.The results showed that the binding of KIH-IL-35 to gp130 was concentration dependent.The indirect activity of KIH-IL-35 and M1 cells was detected by cell activity assay.Further results showed that the inhibition rate of M1 cells in-creased in a dose-dependent manner with the concentration of KIH-IL-35.In addition,a method for de-termining IL-35 activity by activated human peripheral blood mononuclear cells was successfully estab-lished.Activated PBMCs increased in a dose-dependent manner with KIH-IL-35 concentration.In sum-mary,this study utilized the KIH-IL-35 model to enhance the expression of recombinant human IL-35 and validated its high activity in vitro,providing new ideas for the study of IL-35 and the recombinant expres-sion of similar heterodimeric cytokines.

Objective:To investigate the effect of different isoforms of RBBP6 on the proliferation of multiple myeloma (MM) cells after alternative splicing mediated by splicing factor SRSF1. Methods:RT-PCR was used to detect the expression levels of RBBP6 mRNA splicing isoforms regulated by SRSF1. The GEO database was used to analyze the changes of RBBP6 isoform 1 in the progression of plasma cell disease,and survival analysis was used to evaluate the value of this gene in the prognosis of MM patients. In vitro loss-of-function and gain-of-function experiments were conducted by transfecting control siRNA,RBBP6 isoform 1 siRNA,empty vector (EV),OE-RBBP6 isoform 3 into MM.1S cells,then the expression levels of RBBP6 isoform 1 and RBBP6 isoform 3 were detected by real-time PCR and Western blot. CCK-8 assay was performed to detect the cell proliferation ability. Results:Knockdown of SRSF1 increased the expression of RBBP6 isoform 3 and decreased the expression of RBBP6 isoform 1. RBBP6 isoform 1 was closely related to the progression of plasma cell disease,and the high expression of RBBP6 isoform 1 was associated with poor prognosis in patients with MM. Downregulation of RBBP6 isoform 1 expression and overexpression of RBBP6 isoform 3 both reduced the proliferation ability of MM cells. And after downregulating the expression of RBBP6 isoform 1,the level of p53 protein in MM cells was significantly increased (P<0.05). Conclusion:In MM,splicing factor SRSF1 can cause alternative splicing abnormalities in RBBP6. The RBBP6 isoform 1 promotes MM cell proliferation,while the RBBP6 isoform 3 inhibits MM cell proliferation,and the mechanism may be related to regulating the p53 pathway.
