Debates persist regarding the efficacy and safety of azvudine, particularly its real-world outcomes. This study involved patients aged ≥60 years who were admitted to 25 hospitals in mainland China with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection between December 1, 2022, and February 28, 2023. Efficacy outcomes were all-cause mortality during hospitalization, the proportion of patients discharged with recovery, time to nucleic acid-negative conversion (T _NANC), time to symptom improvement (T _SI), and time of hospital stay (T _HS). Safety was also assessed. Among the 5884 participants identified, 1999 received azvudine, and 1999 matched controls were included after exclusion and propensity score matching. Azvudine recipients exhibited lower all-cause mortality compared with controls in the overall population (13.3% vs. 17.1%, RR, 0.78; 95% CI, 0.67-0.90; P = 0.001) and in the severe subgroup (25.7% vs. 33.7%; RR, 0.76; 95% CI, 0.66-0.88; P < 0.001). A higher proportion of patients discharged with recovery, and a shorter T _NANC were associated with azvudine recipients, especially in the severe subgroup. The incidence of adverse events in azvudine recipients was comparable to that in the control group (2.3% vs. 1.7%, P = 0.170). In conclusion, azvudine showed efficacy and safety in older patients hospitalized with COVID-19 during the SARS-CoV-2 omicron wave in China.

Objectives:To investigate the association between normal-weight central obesity with new-onset cardiovascular disease and all-cause mortality risk. Methods:A prospective cohort study was conducted,selecting a total of 93885 participants from the Kailuan Study who had their first physical examination in 2006-2007.According to waist circumference (central obesity:male waist circumference ≥90 cm,female waist circumference ≥85 cm;no central obesity:male waist circumference<90 cm,female waist circumference<85 cm) and body mass index (BMI,normal weight:18.5 kg/m2≤BMI<24.0 kg/m2;overweight/obesity:BMI ≥24.0 kg/m2),the participants were divided into 4 groups:normal weight no central obesity group (G1 group),normal weight central obesity group (G2 group),overweight/obesity no central obesity group (G3 group) and overweight/central obesity group (G4 group);Using the Kaplan-Meier method,the cumulative incidence of new-onset cardiovascular diseases (including hemorrhagic stroke,ischemic stroke and myocardial infarction) and all-cause mortality in different groups was calculated,and the Log-rank test was used for intergroup comparisons.Furthermore,the associations between the different groups and the risk of new-onset cardiovascular diseases and all-cause mortality were analyzed using the multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression model. Results:After a median follow-up of 14.97 (14.55,15.17) years,the cumulative incidence of new-onset cardiovascular diseases in G1 group,G2 group,G3 group and G4 group was 7.62％,10.84％,8.67％,12.91％ respectively (log-rank P<0.05) and the cumulative incidence of all-cause mortality was 12.83％,19.72％,10.65％,16.33％ respectively (log-rank P<0.01).After adjusting for confounding factors,Cox regression analysis showed that the HR (95％CI) of new-onset cardiovascular diseases in G2 group,G3 group and G4 group were 1.14 (1.04-1.25),1.07 (1.01-1.14),1.27 (1.21-1.34),respectively compared with G1 group (all P<0.05).The HR (95％CI) of all-cause mortality were 1.06 (1.00-1.14),0.90 (0.85-0.95),0.97 (0.93-1.01) compared with G1 group,and P values were 0.07,<0.01,0.15,respectively.The results of sensitivity analysis were consistent with the above major studies after excluding overweight/obesity and cancer participants during follow-up. Conclusions:Normal-weight central obesity increases the risk of new-onset cardiovascular diseases and all-cause mortality.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between the number of removed lymph nodes(RLN)and patient prognosis during radical surgery for extensive cervical cancer(CC).Methods:Clinical data of 21416 pa-tients with CC who underwent radical hysterectomy between January 1,2004 to August 31,2018 in the Chinese Cervical Cancer Clinical Study was retrospectively reviewed.Restricted cubic spline(RCS)was used to analyze the dose-response relationship between the number of RLN and prognosis.The patients were divided into three groups according to the RCS and RLN number:1-17 group(8733 cases),18-26 group(8189 cases),and≥ 27 group(4494 cases).Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Log-Rank tests were used to compare the OS rates and DFS rates between groups at 3 and 5 years.Multivariate Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze the prognostic mortality risk.Results:① RCS results showed a U-shaped nonlinear dose-response relationship be-tween the number of RLN and prognosis(P＜0.01).When the number of RLN was less than 26,the risk of death decreased as the number of RLN increased,and the risk was lowest when the number of RLN was 26.②There were statistically significant differences(P＜0.05)in age,histological type,tumor diameter,nerve invasion,uterine invasion,vaso-lymph node space invasion,cervical invasion,number of lymph node metastasis,whether preopera-tive adjuvant therapy was received,postoperative adjuvant therapy,and whether postoperative adjuvant therapy was standardized among the 3 groups(P＜0.05).③Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis showed that the 5-year OS of the 1-17 group,18-26 group,and ≥ 27 group were 90.23％,92.28％,and 91.61％,respectively,and the 5-year DFS were 85.32％,87.90％,and 87.18％,respectively.The differences between the three groups were sta-tistically significant(P＜0.01).④The results of multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that RLN number in the range of 1-17 was a significant risk factor for the 3-and 5-year OS and DFS,when compared to the 18-26 RLN group(HR＞1,P＜0.05).Conclusions:RLN number may be one of the prognostic indicators of CC.When the number of RLNs is between 18-26,the prognosis of the patient may be better.The number of RLN in the range of 1-17 may increase the risk of recurrence or death in CC patients.
