Background:To compare the efficacy and safety of monthly administrations of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists LY01005 and Zoladex ? in Chinese patients with premenopausal breast cancer. Methods:From October 2020 to November 2021, 188 premenopausal breast cancer patients were enrolled in 34 hospitals and randomized 1:1 to receive either LY01005 or Zoladex ? every 28 days for a total of three injections. All patients concomitantly received oral tamoxifen (TAM). The primary efficacy endpoint was cumulative probability of maintaining menopausal level [oestradiol (E2) ≤30 pg/ml] from day 29 to day 85. The second efficacy endpoint included changes in E2, luteinizing hormone (LH), and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) compared with the baseline. Pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and safety were analyzed. The study also evaluated the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics of LY01005. Results:A total of 188 patients were randomised and 187 patients received either LY01005 or Zoladex ?. Cumulative probabilities of maintaining menopausal level (E2≤30 pg/ml) from day 29 to day 85 were 93.1% for LY01005 and 86.3% for Zoladex ?. The between-group difference was 6.8% (95% CI: -2.3%, 15.9%) and primary efficacy in the LY01005 group was not inferior to that in the Zoladex ? group. Changes in E2, LH, and FSH levels compared with the baseline were equivalent between the two groups (E2: 89.34% to 90.23% vs. 82.11% to 85.02%; LH: 88.89% to 95.52% vs. 89.70% to 97.02%; FSH: 75.36% to 80.85% vs.73.07% to 80.24%, respectively). After three consecutive doses of LY01005, the LH and FSH levels of the subjects showed a transient increase after the first dose, reached a peak on the second day and then started to decrease. The LH and FSH reached a lower level and remained at or below that level until the 85th day. Both treatments were well-tolerated. Conclusion:LY01005 is as effective as Zoladex ? in suppressing E2 to menopausal levels in Chinese patients with premenopausal breast cancer, with a similar safety profile.

Objective:To analyze the clinical features and risk factors for renal injury in children with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-positive IgA vasculitis (IgAV).Methods:A case-control study was conducted. Seventy-two ANCA-positive IgAV children hospitalized at the Children′s Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2017 to October 2022 were enrolled as the ANCA-positive group. Propensity score matching (1∶4) using the nearest neighbor was performed with age and gender as covariate, and 288 cases ANCA-negative IgAV children were included as the ANCA-negative group. Patients with renal injury were named ANCA-positive IgAV nephritis (IgAVN) group and ANCA-negative IgAVN group, respectively. The ANCA-positive IgAVN group was further divided into myeloperoxidase (MPO) group and proteinase 3 (PR3) group based on the type of ANCA. Clinical data including manifestations, laboratory tests, renal injury, and prognosis were collected. Comparisons between groups were performed using independent sample t-tests, Mann-Whitney U tests, χ2 tests, or Fisher′s exact tests. Kaplan-Meier curves were used to assess differences in the time to renal injury onset, and multivariate logistic regression was performed to identify independent risk factors for renal injury. Results:Among the 72 ANCA-positive IgAV children (41 males, 31 females, age of 7.7 (5.3, 11.2) years), no significant difference in age or gender was observed compared to the ANCA-negative group (both P>0.05). The ANCA-positive group had higher IgM levels, a higher incidence of recurrent rash, and shorter thrombin time (all P<0.05). Among children with renal injury, the ANCA-positive group showed significant differences in the incidence of hematuria, clinical classification, and grade A prognosis compared to the ANCA-negative group (all P<0.05), but no difference was found in the time to renal involvement onest or renal pathology (all P>0.05). The MPO group had higher rates of microscopic hematuria, gross hematuria, acute renal insufficiency, glomerular sclerosis, and grade B prognosis compared to the ANCA-negative IgAVN group (all P<0.05), with a later onset of renal involvement ( P<0.05). Elevated serum creatinine ( OR=1.08, 95% CI 1.03-1.14) and shortened thrombin time ( OR=0.71, 95% CI 0.55-0.92) were independent risk factors for renal injury in ANCA-positive IgAV children (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Children with ANCA-positive IgAV are more likely to experience recurrent rash. MPO-ANCA-positive IgAVN children have higher risks of hematuria, acute kidney injury and glomerular sclerosis, with later-onset but poorer renal prognosis compared to ANCA-negative IgAVN children. Higher serum creatinine levels and shorter thrombin time may be associated with renal injury in children with ANCA-positive IgAV.

Thoracolumbar spine fracture often leads to severe pain, functional impairments, and neurological deficits, for which open reduction and internal fixation can effectively restore the spinal structural stability. Open decompression and reduction with internal fixation can help relieve spinal cord compression and improve spinal function in cases of concomitant cord injury. Although spinal stability can be restored through surgery, patients often face chronic pain and functional impairments postoperatively. A postoperative rehabilitation program is critical in optimizing therapeutic outcomes, reducing complications, and minimizing the risk of secondary injuries. However, current rehabilitation methods, such as physical therapy, functional training, and pain management, are confronted with problems in clinical practice, including significant variation in efficacy, poor patient adherence, and prolonged rehabilitation period. There is an urgent need for a unified rehabilitation strategy to address these problems. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Physicians Branch of the Chinese Medical Association and the Spine Health Professional Committee of the Chinese Human Health Technology Promotion Association organized experts from relevant fields to formulate Evidence-based guidelines for rehabilitation treatment after internal fixation of thoracolumbar spine fracture in adults ( version 2025) by integrating evidences from clinical researches and advanced rehabilitation concepts at home and abroad. A total number of 14 recommendations concerning the rehabilitation treatment with multimodal analgesia, psychological intervention, deep vein thrombosis prevention, core muscle and extremity exercise, appropriate use of braces, early weight-bearing, device-aided rehabilitation exercise, neuroregulatory therapy, rehabilitation team were put forward, aiming to standardize the post-operative rehabilitation process following internal fixation, promote the functional recovery, and enhance patients′ quality of life.
