Objective To evaluate the efficacy,safety and economy of teriparatide in the treatment of osteoporosis.Methods PubMed,Embase,Cochrane Library,Web of Science,CNKI,WanFang Data,VIP databases and websites related to health technology evaluation were systematically searched to collect high-quality clinical evidence and economic evaluation literature of teriparatide in the treatment of osteoporosis from the inception to January 20,2023.Two researchers independently identified studies,extracted data,assessed the quality of included studies,and descriptive analyzed and summarised the results.Results A total of 25 literatures were included,involving 3 HTA reports,15 systematic review/Meta-analyses and 7 economic studies were included.In terms of effectiveness,the evaluation results showed that teriparatide could improve bone mineral density in patients with osteoporosis,reduce the incidence of vertebral/non-vertebral fractures in primary and secondary osteoporosis and prevent the fractures in postmenopausal osteoporosis compared to bisphosphonates and placebos.In terms of safety,teriparatide was proven to be safe with no elevated risk of adverse drug reactions.In terms of economic cost,teriparatide has a higher cost and economic disadvantage compared with bisphosphonates,however,for people with severe postmenopausal osteoporosis and high risk of fracture,teriparatide can be considered as a potential cost-effect treatment option.Conclusion Teriparatide is effective and safe in the treatment of osteoporosis,but it is not cost-effective advantages compared with the existing other anti-osteoporosis medications.

Background:
SM-like (LSM) genes a family of RNA-binding proteins, are involved in mRNA regulation and can function as oncogenes by altering mRNA stability. However, their roles in B-cell progression and tumorigenesis remain poorly understood.
Methods:
We analyzed gene expression profiles and overall survival data of 123 patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL). The LSM index was developed to assess its potential as a prognostic marker of MCL survival.
Results:
Five of the eight LSM genes were identified as potential prognostic markers for survival in MCL, with particular emphasis on the LSM.index. The expression levels of these LSM genes demonstrated their potential utility as classifiers of MCL. The LSM.index-high group exhibited both poorer survival rates and lower RNA levels than did the overall transcript profile. Notably, LSM1 and LSM8 were overexpressed in the LSM.index-high group, with LSM1 showing 2.5-fold increase (p < 0.001) and LSM8 depicting 1.8-fold increase (p < 0.01) than those in the LSM.index-low group.Furthermore, elevated LSM gene expression was associated with increased cell division and RNA splicing pathway activity.
Conclusions
The LSM.index demonstrates potential as a prognostic marker for survival in patients with MCL. Elevated expression of LSM genes, particularly LSM1 and LSM8, may be linked to poor survival outcomes through their involvement in cell division and RNA splicing pathways. These findings suggest that LSM genes may contribute to the aggressive behavior of MCL and represent potential targets for therapeutic interventions.

Objective To investigate the effect of different adjustment methods (occlusion) in dental implant repair. Methods 96 cases of patients with dental implant repair treated in our hospital from June 2015 to February 2017 were selected as the research object and randomly divided into the control group and the observation group with 48 cases in each group. The biting surfaces of the patients were reduced in the observation group, but the patients in the control group were treated with the original adjustment methods (occlusion). The bite balance and masticatory function of the two groups were evaluated at 3 months and 6 months after repair respectively. The occlusal balance was set up by computer to set the X and Y axes, and the X-axis and Y-axis values of the two groups were monitored. And measured the molars asymmetry index(AMOF), to calculate the ratio of each tooth occlusal force, and the larger the AMOF value, the more asymmetrical the bite force is. Chewing function score of 10 points, the higher the score that chewing better. Results Compared with the control group, the indexes of occlusal balance in the observation group at 3 months after repair were significantly increased (P<0. 05), and at 6 months after repair, the AMOF (P<0. 05). Compared with the control group, the scores of chewing function in the observation group at 3 months and 6 months after repair were significantly increased, there was statistical difference between the two groups Significance (P<0. 05). Conclusion The effect of biting surface reduced (occlusion) in dental implan.

Objective:
To review current-era palliation outcomes of patients with heterotaxy and functional single ventricle in a single institution.
Methods:
The clinical data of 70 consecutive patients with heterotaxy undergoing multistage single ventricle palliation in Guangzhou Women and Children′s Medical Center from January 2008 to December 2017 were retrospectively reviewed, and the prognosis factors for mortality were analyzed. There were 53 male and 17 female patients.The median age was 13.3 months (range: 6 days to 150 months). Single ventricle multistage palliation included 1st stage palliation surgery, 2nd bidirectional Glenn shunt, and 3rd stage modified Fontan.The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate the probability of survival. Multivariate analysis was performed by Cox regression model.
Results:
Sixty-two patients had right atrial isomerism while eight had left atrial isomerism. Eighteen patients (25.7%) required the first stage palliation. Fifty-five patients received the Glenn shunt, and the Fontan procedure was completed in 27 patients. Overall, mortality occurred in 17 patients (24.3%) including 9 after the first stage palliation, 6 after the Glenn shunt, and 2 following the Fontan procedure. Survival estimates for the entire cohort following surgery were 81% (95%

Aim To explore whether the polypeptide vaccines CKL9 and YL20 can induce immune response and anti-tumor effect on HER-2 (+) tumors in vitro and in vivo, and to provide suggestions for clinical use.Methods The proliferation of specific lymphocytes and cytotoxic T lymphocyte activity(CTL) stimulated by CKL9 and YL20 were studied with CCK-8 assay and LDH assay, and the antitumor activity of CKL9 and YL20 was evaluated in vivo.Results The lymphocyte proliferation was promoted by incubation with CKL9 and YL20, and the relative increase of cells was 11.1% and 16.7% respectively at the concentration of 50 mg·L-1 of CKL9 and YL20.The LDH assay confirmed the CTL effect induced by CKL9 and YL20 on HER2-positive tumor cells, not on HER2-negtive tumor cells.With an effector-target ratio of 80 ∶1, the inhibition of tumor cell by cytotoxic T lymphocyte stimulated by CKL9 and YL20 could reach 89.8% and 84.3%, respectively.The HER2(+) tumor cell N87 transplanted in Babes mice was inhibited by pre-immune polypeptide CKL9 and YL20.Conclusion The HER2-specific polypeptide vaccines CKL9 and YL20 could induce persistent specific CD4 and CD8 T cell immune and inhibit the growth of HER2 positive tumor cells.
