Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of avatrombopag in promoting hematopoietic reconstitution after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).Method:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 60 recipients with hematological malignancies who underwent allo-HSCT at the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from January 2022 to August 2023. Recipients with hepatic or renal insufficiency before conditioning, those who received other thrombopoietic agents after allo-HSCT, those with severe respiratory or circulatory system diseases, and those with a history of thromboembolic events were excluded. Among them, 30 recipients who received avatrombopag within 14 days post-transplantation were assigned to the avatrombopag group, while the remaining 30 recipients who did not receive any thrombopoietic agents served as the control group. Clinical characteristics, hematopoietic stem cell engraftment, bone marrow proliferation, transfusion requirements, transplant-related complications, and laboratory adverse events were compared between the two groups.Result:The median platelet engraftment time in the avatrombopag group was 13 days (range: 9~25 days), and the neutrophil engraftment time was 13 days (range: 11~21 days). In the control group, he platelet engraftment time was 15 days (range: 10~51 days), and neutrophil engraftment time was 14 days (range: 10~30 days). The difference in platelet engraftment time between the two groups was statistically significant ( P=0.039). Bone marrow analysis on day 28 post-transplant showed that the proportion of recipients with active bone marrow hyperplasia was 96.7% in the avatrombopag group and 73.3% in the control group ( P=0.030); the median number of megakaryocytes was 30 vs. 6, respectively ( P<0.001); and the proportion of mature platelet-producing megakaryocytes was 44% vs. 26.3% ( P<0.001). Regarding transfusion requirements, the median platelet transfusion volume within 28 days post-transplantation was 4.5 U (range: 2~16 U) in the avatrombopag group and 6.5 U (range: 3~32 U) in the control group ( P=0.007). The time to achieve platelet transfusion independence was 13 days (range: 8~25 days) in the avatrombopag group and 14 days (range: 10~36 days) in the control group ( P=0.026). The median red blood cell transfusion volume in both groups was 4 U, with no significant difference ( P=0.354). Medication adherence in the avatrombopag group was 100%. There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of incidence of post-transplant infections (70% vs. 83.3%), bleeding (50% vs. 60%), graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) (30% vs. 40%), or abnormal laboratory tests (86.7% vs. 90%) (all P>0.05). Conclusion:The use of avatrombopag after allo-HSCT in patients with hematologic malignancies can promote bone marrow hematopoiesis and platelet engraftment, reduce platelet transfusion volume, and shorten the duration of platelet transfusion dependence. Avatrombopag is well tolerated, and no serious adverse reactions were observed during treatment.

Objective:To explore the associations of temperature, relative humidity, and their interaction effect with fall risk.Methods:Data on fall cases were collected using the national injury surveillance system from May to September, in 2006-2022 in Hubei Province. Combined with the meteorological and air pollution data, we conducted a time-stratified case-crossover design and used conditional logistic regression models and distributed lag nonlinear models to examine the exposure-response relationships between temperature, humidity, and fall risk. We further divided the low and the high temperature groups and the low and the high relative humidity groups and analyzed the excess risk ( ER) of falls attributed to dry-hot or wet-hot events. Finally, we calculated the additive interactions of temperature and humidity on fall risk. Results:A total of 55 401 fall cases were included. With the increase in temperature and relative humidity decrease, the exposure-response curves of fall showed nonlinear upward trends among all populations. Gender and age differences were found in temperature-fall and relative humidity-fall risk relationships. Compared with wet-non-hot (normal temperature and high relative humidity) events, the ER of fall in dry-hot (high temperature and low relative humidity) events was 14.80% (95% CI: 9.69%- 20.15%), and the ER of wet-hot (high temperature and high relative humidity) events was 9.59% (95% CI: 2.52%-17.13%). However, there was no statistically significant difference between dry-hot and wet-hot events in the fall, and no statistically significant difference between different genders, ages, occupations, and fall occurred place (all P>0.05). No significant synergistic additive interaction was found between temperature and relative humidity on fall risk (relative excess risk due to interaction=-0.08, 95% CI: -0.19-0.02). Conclusions:Higher temperatures and lower relative humidity were associated with increased fall risk. Both dry-hot and wet-hot events had a higher risk of fall, while high temperature and low humidity have no synergistic effect on fall risk.

Objective:To construct a machine-learning model for predicting the progression of pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) based on clinical and CT features, and to evaluate its predictive performance in internal/external testing cohorts.Methods:Baseline clinical and radiological data of 200 PCLs in 177 patients undergoing abdominal thin slice enhanced CT examination at Peking Union Medical College Hospital from July 2014 to December 2022 were retrospectively collected. PCLs were divided into progressive and non-progressive groups according to whether the signs indicated for surgery by the guidelines of the European study group on PCLs were present during three-year follow-up. 200 PCLs were randomly divided into training (150 PCLs) and internal testing cohorts (50 PCLs) at the ratio of 1∶3. 15 PCLs in 14 patients at Jinling Affiliated Hospital of Medical School of Nanjing University from October 2011 to May 2020 were enrolled as external testing cohort. The clinical and CT radiological features were recorded. Multiple feature selection methods and machine-learning models were implemented and combined to identify the optimal machine-learning model based on the 10-fold cross-validation method. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve was drawn and area under curve (AUC) was calculated. The model with the highest AUC was determined as the optimal model. The optimal model's predictive performance was evaluated on testing cohort by calculating AUC, sensitivity, specificity and accuracy. Permutation importance was used to assess the importance of optimal model features. Calibration curves of the optimal model were established to evaluate the model's clinical applicability by Hosmer-Lemeshow test.Results:In training and internal testing cohorts, the progressive and non-progressive groups were significantly different on history of pancreatitis, lesions size, main pancreatic duct diameter and dilation, thick cyst wall, presence of septation and thick septation (all P value <0.05) In internal testing cohort, the two groups were significantly different on gender, lesion calcification and pancreatic atrophy (all P value <0.05). In external testing cohort, the two groups were significantly different on lesions size and pancreatic duct dilation (both P<0.05). The support vector machine (SVM) model based on five features selected by F test (lesion size, thick cyst wall, history of pancreatitis, main pancreatic duct diameter and dilation) achieved the highest AUC of 0.899 during cross-validation. SVM model for predicting the progression of PCLs demonstrated an AUC of 0.909, sensitivity of 82.4%, specificity of 72.7%, and accuracy of 76.0% in the internal testing cohort, and 0.944, 100%, 77.8%, and 86.7% in the external testing cohort. Calibration curved showed that the predicted probability by the model was comparable to the real progression of PCLs. Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test affirmed the model's consistency with actual PCLs progression in testing cohorts. Conclusions:The SVM model based on clinical and CT features can help doctors predict the PCLs progression within three-year follow-up, thus achieving efficient patient management and rational allocation of medical resource.

Objective:To compare the efficacy and safety of Dienogest(DNG)with other drugs in non-surgi-cal pharmacologic treatment and long-term management of drugs after conservative surgery for endometriosis(EMT).Methods:We searched PubMed,Embase,Medline,Google Scholar,Cochrane Library,China National Knowledge Infrastructure,Wanfang,and Weipu databases from the establishment of the database until December 31,2023 for relevant literature on EMT pharmacotherapy.Meta-analysis was performed using Stata 18.0 software to assess the efficacy of DNG,gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist(GnRH-a),compound short-acting oral contraceptive(COC)and levonorgestrel intrauterine sustained-release system(LNG-IUS)in reducing the diameter of ovarian endometrioma(OMA),relieving pelvic pain and preventing EMT postoperative recurrence in EMT pa-tients after non-surgical drug treatment and conservative surgery,as well as the adverse reactions of drugs.Re-sults:①During non-surgical medication treatment of EMT,there was no statistically significant difference(P＞0.05)between DNG and GnRH-a in reducing OMA diameter and relieving pelvic pain.Compared with COC,DNG was superior to COC in reducing the diameter of OMA(WMD 10.44 mm,P=0.017)and relieving pelvic pain(WMD 12.20 mm,P＜0.001).②During long-term medication management after conservative EMT surger-y:there was no statistically significant difference(P＞0.05)between DNG,GnRH-a,COC and LNG-IUS in re-ducing postoperative recurrence and controlling pelvic pain significant(P＞0.05).③Adverse drug reactions:com-pared with GnRH-a,DNG had a reduced risk of bone loss(bone density WMD2.78 g/cm3,P=0.038),hot fla-shes(OR 0.07,P＜0.001),and an increased risk of irregular vaginal bleeding(OR 19.10,P＜0.001);com-pared with COC,the risk of weight gain,mood abnormalities,and breast tenderness,nausea and vomiting,and sleep disorders in DNG were reduced(OR＜1,P＜0.05);compared with LNG-IUS,the risk of abnormalities of mood in DNG was increased(OR 9.87,P=0.033).Conclusions:DNG treatment is more effective than COC in non-surgical drug therapy for EMT.When supplemental medication was given after conservative EMT surgery,DNG,like other drugs,can effectively prevent postoperative recurrence and control pelvic pain.The safety of DNG is superior to GnRH-a and COC,slightly inferior to LNG-IUS.

Objective　To explore the effect of Mp1p on host macrophages through transcriptomics combined with metabolomics. Methods Firstly, a THP-1 macrophage strain (THP-1-Mp1p+) stably expressing Mp1p was constructed using lentivirus. Secondly, using high-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA Seq) technology, the expression level of intracellular mRNA was detected in transcriptomics analysis to determine differentially expressed genes; In metabolomics analysis, metabolite identification was performed through database comparison, and pathway analysis was performed on differential metabolites to reveal potential mechanisms of action. Finally, the results of metabolomics and transcriptomics were combined for analysis, and differential metabolites and genes were analyzed to further elucidate the mechanism of action of Mp1p on macrophages. Results Transcriptome analysis showed that, compared with the negative control group, the THP-1-Mp1p+ group had a total of 1 180 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), with 345 upregulated genes and 835 downregulated genes. GO enrichment analysis of DEGs showed that there were 135 differentially expressed genes, including 105 in biological processes (BP), 28 in cellular components (CC), and 2 in molecular functions (MF). The KEGG analysis results showed that the effect of Mp1p on THP-1 macrophages was highly correlated with the TNF pathway. The metabolomic analysis found that both the blank control group and the THP-1-Mp1p+ macrophage group achieved good separation between QC samples in both positive and negative ion modes. The threshold for significant differential metabolites was set at: VIP≥1 and T-test P<0.05, resulting in the identification of 488 differential metabolites, with 230 in the positive ion mode and 258 in the negative ion mode. Pathway enrichment analysis of the identified metabolites pointed to significant enrichment in metabolic pathways. The combined analysis confirmed that the tumor necrosis factor signaling pathway, interleukin-17 signaling pathway, and NF-kappaB signaling pathway were important metabolic pathways involved. Conclusions The virulence factor Mp1p may affect host macrophages by modulating the tumor necrosis factor signaling pathway, interleukin-17 signaling pathway, and NF-kappaB signaling pathway. The findings contribute to a better understanding of the mechanisms of action of Mp1p and may offer potential directions for the selection of relevant diagnostic and therapeutic targets in the future.
