Objective To analyze the clinical and therapeutic characteristics of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-negative posttransplant lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD) with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in the context of specific cases and literature. Methods A case of EBV-negative DLBCL (GCB type) after kidney transplantation is reported. The patient was a 45-year-old male who underwent living-related kidney transplantation in 2016 and has been receiving triple immunosuppressive therapy with tacrolimus, mycophenolate mofetil and methylprednisolone since then. In 2024, the patient presented with intermittent fever, night sweats and gastrointestinal symptoms. The diagnosis was confirmed by endoscopic pathology, immunohistochemical staining and positron emission tomography/computed tomography. The R-CDOP regimen (rituximab + cyclophosphamide + liposomal doxorubicin + vincristine + dexamethasone) was used for treatment. Results The patient was diagnosed with EBV-negative DLBCL (GCB type, Ann Arbor stage Ⅳ B). After 4 cycles of R-CDOP chemotherapy, the efficacy assessment was partial remission, and the transplant kidney function remained stable. Conclusions For EBV-negative PTLD after kidney transplantation, it is necessary to break through the "virus-dependent" diagnostic thinking. In clinical practice, the focus should be on protecting the transplant kidney, and individualized treatment plans should be developed for patients.

Neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM) is a rare monogenic disorder primarily caused by insufficient insulin secretion resulting from mutations in the KCNJ11 and ABCC8 genes. Sulfonylureas, represented by glibenclamide, have become the standard therapy for this type of NDM by precisely closing the mutated ATP-sensitive potassium channels in pancreatic β cells, thereby restoring insulin secretion. Clinical studies confirm that sulfonylureas enable over 90% of patients to successfully transition from insulin to oral treatment, achieving long-term stable glycemic control and improving neurological outcomes to a certain extent. In terms of safety, severe hypoglycemia induced by sulfonylureas is relatively rare and gastrointestinal reactions are mild; moreover, sulfonylureas show good long-term tolerability, and have no adverse effects on child growth and development. In the future, by further refining the full-chain management pathway of “rapid genetic diagnosis-early intervention-specialized dosage forms-long-term follow-up”, the clinical application of sulfonylureas is expected to provide NDM patients with an optimized treatment regimen and maximize their health benefits.

Anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies for the treatment of refractory nephrotic syndrome (RNS) in children. The first- generation rituximab is the most widely used in clinical practice; it shows definite efficacy in children with RNS, is recommended by guidelines, particularly for achieving a high remission rate in minimal change nephrosis, and can significantly reduce the cumulative use of glucocorticoids and immunosuppressants. The second-generation ofatumumab has potential as an alternative treatment for patients who are intolerant or resistant to rituximab, while the third-generation obinutuzumab has shown efficacy in complex cases such as rituximab resistance or post-transplant recurrence. However, there is still controversy regarding the optimization of rituximab treatment dosage and whether ofatumumab and obinutuzumab offer greater advantages than rituximab for the treatment of RNS in children. The most common adverse reaction induced by anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies is infusion reactions, and long-term adverse events mainly include increased risks of sustained immunosuppression and infections. Rituximab has significant economic advantages for the treatment of RNS, but additional pharmacoeconomic research based on China’s healthcare environment is needed to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of ofatumumab and obinutuzumab in this population. Given that the current use of ofatumumab and obinutuzumab in this field is considered off-label use, clinical application should only proceed after a rigorous evaluation of the patient’s benefits and risks.

OBJECTIVE To comprehensively evaluate the efficacy, safety and cost-effectiveness of insulin icodec in treating type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), providing evidence-based guidance for new drug selection in hospital and clinical medication decision-making. METHODS PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, CNKI, Wanfang, VIP and foreign health technology assessment (HTA) websites were searched by using rapid health technology assessment from inception to 15 July 2025 for systematic reviews/meta-analyses, pharmacoeconomic studies, and HTA reports on insulin icodec in the treatment of T2DM. After data extraction and quality assessment, the findings of the included studies were analyzed descriptively. RESULTS Ten systematic reviews/meta-analyses and three pharmacoeconomic studies were included. Among them, 4 systematic reviews/meta-analyses were of high quality; the overall quality of the 3 pharmacoeconomic studies was relatively good. Regarding efficacy, insulin icodec was superior to once-daily basal insulin in reducing glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and in achieving the target of HbA1c<7% (P<0.05). No significant differences were observed between icodec insulin and comparators in lowering fasting plasma glucose (P>0.05). For safety, insulin icodec did not increase the incidence of any adverse events (AEs), serious AEs, clinically significant hypoglycemia (random glucose<3 mmol/L), injection-site reactions, or allergic reactions, compared with once-daily basal insulin overall (P> 0.05); however, insulin icodec was associated with a significant increase in body weight (P<0.05). Domestic economic evaluations indicated that insulin icodec was more cost-effective than insulin glargine and insulin degludec when its annual costs were in the range of 784.90-1 145.96 and 597.66-736.34 US dollars, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Insulin icodec demonstrates favorable efficacy and safety profiles in the treatment of T2DM; however, attention should be paid to the risk of weight gain. Under China’s healthcare system, insulin icodec demonstrates greater economic value only when the patient’s weekly required basal insulin dose falls within a specific range,and clinical practice requires individualization.
