To systematically analyzed the reporting status of core elements in publicly available clinical practice guideline(hereafter referred to as "guideline") protocols published domestically and internationally over the past decade, identified existing problems, and provided evidence to inform the standardized writing and publication of future guideline protocols.

Objective To explore the relationship between levels of retinol binding protein (RBP) and lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)], and obesity and the occurrence risk of cardiovascular disease in population with prehypertension (PH). Methods A total of 301 patients with PH who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Science and Technology for physical examination from July 2021 to July 2024 were selected as the study subjects. The levels of serum RBP and Lp(a) were determined, and the waist circumference (WC) and body mass index (BMI) were measured to evaluate the obesity of patients. All patients were followed up. According to whether cardiovascular disease occurred during the follow-up period, they were classified into a study group (with cardiovascular disease) and a control group (without cardiovascular disease). The effects of serum RBP and Lp(a) levels, WC and BMI on the risk of cardiovascular disease were analyzed. Results The follow-up results showed that 53 out of 301 cases developed cardiovascular disease. The levels of RBP, Lp(a), WC, and BMI in the study group were higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). Receiver operating characteristic curve revealed that the areas under the curves of RBP, Lp(a), WC, and BMI for predicting the cardiovascular disease were 0.823, 0.741, 0.768, and 0.841, respectively. Serum RBP, Lp(a), WC, and BMI were influencing factors of the occurrence of cardiovascular disease (P<0.05). Conclusion RBP, Lp(a), WC, and BMI are the influencing factors for the occurrence of cardiovascular disease in patients with prehypertension. These four indicators have certain predictive value on the occurrence of cardiovascular disease.

Radiotherapy is a crucial component of the treatment of tumors. In addition to directly causing DNA damage in tumor cells and inducing cell apoptosis, radiotherapy is also involved in the regulation of systemic immune status. Increasing evidence indicates that radiotherapy can remodel the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) and reverse the immunosuppressive state, thereby enhancing anti-tumor effects and demonstrating stronger immune responses and therapeutic benefits when combined with immune checkpoint inhibitors. Taking lung cancer as an example to explore the impacts and potential mechanisms of radiotherapy on the TIME and anti-tumor immunity, which can provide a scientific basis for optimizing the treatment strategies of lung cancer.

Objective To investigate the impact of blood sampling from different sites on coagula-tion results during systemic heparin anticoagulation period treated by continuous renal replacement therapy(CRRT).Methods Seventy-eight patients undergoing CRRT with systemic heparin anticoag-ulation were selected.Using a self-control method,blood samples were simultaneously collected from sampling port at input end of the CRRT extracorporeal circuit,the arterial pressure monitoring cathe-ter,and the peripheral vein of the patients.The four coagulation parameters were tested,and the differences in coagulation results among the blood sampling sites were compared.Results During CRRT with systemic heparin anticoagulation,the four coagulation parameters using blood samples col-lected from the sampling port at the input end of the CRRT extracorporeal circuit,the arterial pressure monitoring catheter,and the peripheral vein showed no statistically significant differences(P＞0.05).Subgroup analyses based on different hemofiltration machines and heparin doses also showed no statisti-cally significant differences(P＞0.05).Conclusion During CRRT,blood sampling from the sam-pling port at the input end of the circuit or the arterial pressure monitoring catheter can be used as an alternative to peripheral venous blood sampling,with no impact on coagulation results.

Objective:To investigate changes in behavior and hippocampal and prefrontal cortical myelin basic protein(MBP) in model mice with post-traumatic stress disorder(PTSD).Methods:Thirty-two clean-grade male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into control group, PTSD 3 d group, PTSD 7 d group and PTSD 14 d group based on matching body mass, with 8 mice in each group. The mice in PTSD 3 d, 7 d and 14 d groups were decapitated at 3 d, 7 d, and 14 d after modeling.The PTSD mouse model was established through conditioned foot shock and single prolonged stress. Anxious- and depressive-like behaviors of mice were assessed by the open field test(OFT). The mouse step-through passive avoidance experiment was used for electric shock training and learning and memory retention. Myelin morphology alterations in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex of the mouse were examined via myelin staining.The expression levels of MBP were quantified using Western blot and immunohistochemical staining techniques. All experimental data were analyzed and visualized using GraphPad Prism 8.0.2 and SPSS 25.0, the multi groups comparison of behavioral and molecular indicator data was conducted by one-way ANOVA, and the correlation between MBP relative protein expression level and behavioral indicators was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis.Results:(1) Behavioral results: in OFT, there were significant differences in total distance, average speed, time of stationary and times of entering the central area among all groups( F=16.72, 16.74, 7.37, 5.93, all P<0.05).The total distance and the average speed time of PTSD 3 d, 7 d, 14 d group were all lower than those in control group(all P<0.05).In the mouse step-through passive avoidance experiment, significant differences were observed across all groups in terms of total distance traveled, average speed, dark box entries, and activity time( F=52.78, 55.47, 9.07, 24.88, all P<0.05).All the indexes of PTSD 3 d group and PTSD 7 d group were all higher than those in control group and PTSD 14 d group(all P<0.05).(2)Myelin staining revealed statistically significant differences in the myelin staining areas of the hippocampal CA1 region and the prefrontal cortex across all groups( F=6.67, 5.77, all P<0.05). The stained myelin area in the CA1 region of the hippocampus in the PTSD 3 d group((123.30±11.62)μm 2)was significantly lower compared to the control group((153.00±2.61)μm 2)( P<0.05). The stained myelin area in the prefrontal cortex of the PTSD 3 d group((119.50±9.26)μm 2)was significantly lower compared to that in the control group((154.80±12.40)μm 2)( P<0.05). (3) Western blot results demonstrated significant variations in the expression levels of myelin basic protein (MBP) within the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex across all experimental groups ( F=10.15, 5.28, all P<0.05). The expression levels of MBP in the hippocampal tissue of the PTSD 3 d group (0.89±0.07), PTSD 7 d group (0.90±0.14), and PTSD 14 d group (0.85±0.13) were significantly lower compared to those in the control group(1.17±0.02)(all P<0.05). The expression levels of MBP protein in the prefrontal cortex of the PTSD 3 d group(0.73±0.16) and PTSD 7 d group (0.70±0.12)were significantly lower compared to those in the control group (0.94±0.04)(all P<0.05). (4) Immunohistochemical staining revealed significant variations in the number of MBP-positive cells within the hippocampal CA1 region and the prefrontal cortex across all groups ( F=39.32, 21.81, both P<0.05). The quantity of MBP-positive cells in the hippocampal tissue of mice in the PTSD 3 d group((187.10±1.12)/mm 2)and PTSD 7 d group((193.10±2.18) /mm 2)was significantly reduced compared to the control group((204.80±3.25)/mm 2)(all P<0.05). The quantity of MBP-positive cells in the prefrontal cortex of the PTSD 7 d group((183.90±1.71)/mm 2) was significantly reduced compared to the control group((191.60±1.04) /mm 2)( P<0.05). Conclusion:The PTSD model mice showed anxious- and depression-like behavior, impaired learning and memory ability, and myelin damage in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex.

Objective:To investigate the prognostic value of circulating plasma cell (CPC) in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) undergoing induction therapy with bortezomib, lenalidomide, and dexamethasone (VRD) regimen.Methods:This study retrospectively analyzed clinical data of 152 patients with NDMM treated with the VRD regimen as induction therapy in the Hematology Department of Jiangsu Provincial People’s Hospital from January 2019 to March 2024. The clinical characteristics, efficacy, and prognosis of patients with high and low CPC proportions are compared. The prognosis of patients in the CPC-positive group, CPC-negative conversion group, and CPC-negative group was analyzed.Results:This study included 152 patients with NDMM, comprising 76 males and 76 females, with a median age at onset of 62 (40–77) years. Compared with the group with CPC proportion of <0.105%, patients with CPC proportion of ≥0.105% demonstrated a higher proportion of International Staging System (ISS) stage Ⅲ ( P<0.001), Revised ISS stage Ⅲ ( P=0.023), HGB≤100 g/L ( P=0.015), β 2-microglobulin ≥3.5 g/L ( P<0.001), shorter median progression-free survival (PFS) period (24 months vs 52 months, P<0.001), and shorter median overall survival (OS) period (52 months vs not achieved, P=0.005). Patients in the CPC-negative group demonstrated a longer median PFS period (not reached vs 41 months vs 19 months, P<0.001) and median OS period (not reached vs not reached vs 26 months, P<0.001) compared with patients in the CPC-negative conversion group and CPC-positive group. Multivariate analysis revealed CPC proportion of ≥0.105% ( HR=3.79, 95% CI: 1.95–7.38, P<0.001), positive CPC after induction therapy ( HR=3.54, 95% CI: 1.41–8.87, P=0.007), and cytogenetic high risk ( HR=3.69, 95% CI: 1.85–7.37, P<0.001) as independent risk factors affecting the PFS of patients. Meanwhile, CPC of ≥0.105% ( HR=3.50, 95% CI: 1.29–9.48, P=0.014) and positive CPC after induction therapy ( HR=4.12, 95% CI: 1.13–15.03, P=0.032) are independent risk factors affecting the OS of patients. Conclusion:Patients with NDMM demonstrating high CPC expression have a worse prognosis, with CPC level as an independent prognostic factor.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and efficacy of donor-purified CD34 + stem cell boosts in patients with poor hematopoietic reconstruction (PHR) after haploid hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) for aplastic anemia (AA) . Method:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 11 patients with AA and PHR who underwent haplo-HSCT and received donor-purified CD34 + stem cell boosts at Peking University People’s Hospital. Recovery of blood cell counts, incidence of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), and overall survival (OS) were assessed. Results:Of the 11 patients with PHR, two were diagnosed with prolonged isolated thrombocytopenia (PT), one was primary poor graft function (PGF), and eight were diagnosed with secondary PGF. The median time to PHR diagnosis was 110 days (range: 60-330 days), and the median interval from transplantation to purified CD34 + hematopoietic stem cell infusion was 194 days (range: 125-456 days). The two patients with PT achieved complete platelet recovery at 22 and 13 days after CD34 + stem cell infusion, respectively. Among the remaining nine patients with PGF, six achieved complete hematopoietic recovery, with a median absolute neutrophil count recovery time of 19 days (8-158 days), HGB recovery time of 32.5 days (range: 13-158 days), and platelet recovery time of 31.5 days (range: 7-171 days). The incidence of chronic GVHD after infusion was 18.2%, with no cases of acute GVHD observed. The OS rate was 90.9% (10/11) in the 11 patients, with a median follow-up of 614 days (range: 153-1 765 days) . Conclusion:Donor-purified CD34 + stem cell boost may be an effective therapeutic strategy for PHR in patients with AA after haplo-HSCT.

Objective:To construct four recombinant hemagglutinin (HA) antigens from seasonal influenza viruses and evaluate their immunogenicity in mouse models.Methods:HA coding sequences from four seasonal influenza virus strains Wisconsin (H1N1), Darwin (H3N2), Austria (B/Victoria lineage, BV) and Phuket (B/Yamagata lineage, BY) were optimized and synthesized, and then used to construct four recombinant plasmids. Recombinant baculoviruses were obtained through transformation and transfection. The expression of recombinant HA antigens was identified by SDS-PAGE and Western blot. The recombinant HA antigens were purified by nickel column affinity chromatography and intramuscularly administered to BALB/c mice after formulation with Al(OH) 3 or AddaVax adjuvant. Humoral immune responses were assessed by indirect ELISA and hemagglutination inhibition test, while cellular immune responses were evaluated by ELISPOT. Microneutralization test was used to detect the titers of serum antibodies in mice. Statistical analysis was performed using t test or non-parametric rank sum test. Results:PCR amplification and agarose gel electrophoresis confirmed the correct construction of the recombinant bacmids. Western blot showed verified the successful expression of the four recombinant antigens (H1-HA, H3N2-HA, BV-HA, and BY-HA). SDS-PAGE results showed that the purity of all four recombinant HA antigens exceeded 95%. After three-dose immunization, the total IgG levels in mice immunized with the recombinant H1N1-HA, H3N2-HA, or BV-HA formulated with AddaVax adjuvant were higher than those in the corresponding groups immunized with the same recombinant antigen alone (all P<0.05). The secretion levels of IFN-γ, IL-2, and IL-4 in the group receiving the mixture of all four recombinant HA antigens formulated with AddaVax adjuvant were higher than those in the group immunized with a commercial quadrivalent split influenza vaccine (all P<0.01). Results of the microneutralization test showed that the antibody titer in the quadrivalent split influenza vaccine group was 1∶225, whereas the titer in the group immunized with the mixture of four recombinant HA antigens formulated with AddaVax adjuvant could reach up to 1∶1 200. Conclusions:In this study, four recombinant seasonal influenza virus HA antigens are successfully expressed and demonstrated good immunogenicity in mice when formulated AddaVax adjuvant.
