OBJECTIVE To assess the bleeding risk signals associated with the concomitant use of direct oral anticoagulants （DOACs） and triazole antifungals， and to provide pharmacovigilance evidence for the safety evaluation and monitoring of combined clinical use. METHODS Adverse event reports involving the concomitant use of DOACs and triazole antifungals were extracted from the US FDA Adverse Event Reporting System （FAERS） from the first quarter of 2004 to the third quarter of 2025. Nine bleeding-related preferred terms （PTs） were selected. The Ω shrinkage measure， additive model， multiplicative model， and combined risk ratio method were employed to detect drug-drug interaction signals. The strength of positive signals was further analyzed based on the Ω shrinkage measure. RESULTS A total of 790 adverse event reports involving the concomitant use of DOACs and triazole antifungals were included， among which 229 reports involved nine bleeding-related PTs. A total of 13 signals were consistently identified as posit ive by all four methods. These signals involved six drug combinations： apixaban-fluconazole， apixaban-posaconazole， rivaroxaban-itraconazole， dabigatran etexilate-fluconazole， apixaban-voriconazole， and dabigatran etexilate-itraconazole. The Ω shrinkage measure showed that the apixaban-posaconazole combination exhibited stronger signals for bleeding （ Ω ＝2.73， Ω 025 ＝2.05） and hemoptysis （ Ω ＝2.17， Ω 025 ＝0.83）； the apixaban-fluconazole combination exhibited stronger signals for hematoma （ Ω ＝2.30， Ω 025 ＝1.47） and hematuria （ Ω ＝1.71， Ω 025 ＝0.74）； the rivaroxaban-itraconazole combination exhibited stronger signals for epistaxis （ Ω ＝2.01， Ω 025 ＝0.90） and hematoma （ Ω ＝1.93， Ω 025 ＝0.42）； no positive Ω signals were observed for intracranial hemorrhage or upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage. CONCLUSION S This study suggests that the concomitant use of DOACs and triazole antifungals may increase the risk of bleeding-related events， with differences in signal strength and signal distribution across various drug combinations. In clinical practice， particular attention should be paid to the concomitant use of apixaban or rivaroxaban with strong cytochrome P450 3A4 or P-glycoprotein inhibitors such as posaconazole and itraconazole. For other DOAC-triazole antifungal combinations， close monitoring for bleeding-related manifestations and timely adjustment of anticoagulation or antifungal regimens are also warranted.

Objective: To analyze the serotypes and VP1 coding region genetic characteristics of poliovirus (PV) isolated from Acute Flaccid Paralysis (AFP) Surveillance System and environmental sewage surveillance samples in Anhui Province. Methods: PV was isolated from fecal samples of polio cases and their close contacts in the AFP Surveillance System and environmental sewage surveillance samples in Anhui Province in 2023. Intratype identification was performed by rRT-PCR method. The nucleotide sequence variation sites and variation numbers in the VP1 coding region were amplified and determined. The mutation hotspots, neurovirulence determinants, and antigenic determinant site changes were analyzed. A PV phylogenetic tree was constructed based on the VP1 coding region gene, and the genetic association between PV in Anhui Province and other foreign vaccine-derived PV (VDPV) was analyzed. Results: A total of 35 PV strains were isolated in Anhui Province in 2023, including 10 strains from AFP Surveillance System samples and 25 strains from environmental sewage surveillance samples. By intratype identification, there were 14 type Ⅰ PV strains and 21 type Ⅲ PV strains. By VDPV screening, there were 2 type Ⅰ VDPV strains, with VP1 coding region nucleotide sequence variation numbers of 10-<150; all others were vaccine-like strains. The mutation rates of nt2747 and nt2795 sites in type Ⅰ PV were higher, which were 78.57% and 21.43%, respectively. Three strains had revertant mutations at the attenuated site nt2795. Twelve strains had mutations at antigenic determinant site 1. The mutation rates of nt3353, nt3346, and nt3357 sites in type Ⅲ PV were higher, which were 42.86%, 28.57%, and 28.57%, respectively. No revertant mutations were found at attenuated sites. Four strains had mutations at antigenic determinant site 2, and 6 strains had mutations at antigenic determinant site 3. Phylogenetic tree analysis showed that the isolated 2 type Ⅰ VDPV strains were on the same independent main branch, which was different from other isolated type Ⅰ PV strains, and had a distant genetic relationship with other VDPV monitored abroad. Conclusions In 2023, the VP1 coding regions of type Ⅰ and type Ⅲ PV isolated in Anhui Province had mutation hotspots, and revertant mutations occurred at attenuated sites. Type Ⅰ VDPV had no genetic association with previously discovered VDPV. It is recommended to strengthen PV surveillance and sequence analysis capabilities to reduce the risk of circulating VDPV.

Coronary chronic total occlusion(CTO)remains a significant challenge in the field of interventional therapy for coronary artery disease.With advancements in interventional techniques,particularly retrograde approaches,the success rate of CTO interventions has improved.The key steps of retrograde intervention include traversing collateral channels with the retrograde guidewire,wiring the occlusion segment,and establishing antegrade access.In this case,the patient had a heavily calcified occlusion at the left circumflex artery(LCX)ostium jailed by the prior stent implanted in the left main and anterior descending arteries,making it difficult to establish antegrade access using conventional methods after retrograde guidewire crossing.The procedure was successfully completed by employing a domestically developed intravascular snare system combined with a pre-assembled extension catheter technique to capture the retrograde guidewire and establish antegrade access,followed by stent implantation at the LCX ostium.This innovative approach provides a new strategy for complex CTO retrograde interventions,particularly in cases where retrograde guidewire entry into the antegrade guiding catheter is challenging.

Objective:To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and influencing factors of single-cigarette use and dual cigarette-cigar use in China.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional study that selected 85 638 urban and rural residents who met the inclusion criteria from the 2018 China Health Literacy Survey as research subjects. An analysis was conducted on 21 849 users of cigarettes and cigars among them. Due to the small number of individuals who exclusively used cigars (247 cases), the research subjects were divided into two categories: exclusive cigarette users and dual users of cigarettes and cigars. The groups were categorized by age (18-34 years, 35-54 years, ≥55 years), gender (male, female), education level (primary school and below, junior high school and high school, university and above) and annual household income (<20 000 yuan, 20 000-<80 000 yuan, ≥80 000 yuan) to compare the tobacco usage rate and conduct subgroup analyses for each subgroup. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was employed, incorporating general demographic characteristic information to explore the influencing factors of exclusive cigarette use and dual use of cigarettes and cigars, respectively.Results:The rate of exclusive cigarette use in our country was 24.3%, while the dual use rate of cigarettes and cigars was 0.9%. The exclusive cigarette use rate and the dual use rate of cigarettes and cigars among males were significantly higher than those among females (48.25% vs 2.48%, and 1.84% vs 0.06%) (both P<0.001). For males, the high-risk factors for exclusive cigarette use included living in urban areas ( OR: 1.37, 95% CI: 1.23-1.54), being Han ethnicity ( OR: 1.73, 95% CI: 1.51-1.98), and having an annual household income ≥20 000 yuan ( OR: 1.54, 95% CI: 1.38-1.82) while having a junior high school education or higher was a protective factor ( OR: 0.68, 95% CI: 0.52-0.90). Age≥35 years ( OR: 3.36, 95% CI: 2.62-4.32) and having a junior high school education or higher ( OR: 1.30, 95% CI: 1.02-1.67) were risk factors for dual use of cigarettes and cigars in males. Among females, living in urban areas ( OR: 1.53, 95% CI: 1.19-1.97) and being Han ethnicity ( OR: 5.96, 95% CI: 4.47-7.96) were risk factors for exclusive cigarette use, while having a university education or higher was a protective factor ( OR: 0.28, 95% CI: 0.18-0.42). However, for female dual use of cigarettes and cigars, no significant effects were observed for any demographic characteristics. Conclusions:The use rate of cigarettes alone in China is significantly higher than that of cigarette-cigar dual use, and the rates of cigarette use alone and cigarette-cigar dual use in men are significantly higher than those in women. Tobacco use is being affected by sociodemographic factors, among which place of residence, ethnicity and education level are the main influencing factors of cigarette use alone, and gender, age and education level are the main influencing factors of cigarette-cigar dual use.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

The aim of this updated guideline is to provide comprehensive recommendations for the management of gout in patients with common comorbidities, such as chronic kidney disease(CKD), cardiovascular disease(CVD), diabetes, osteoarthritis(OA), and gastrointestinal disorders. This guideline was developed by a multidisciplinary expert panel consisting of specialists in endocrinology, rheumatology, nephrology, cardiology, gastroenterology, and methodology. The development process adhered to standard methodologies, including PICO(population, intervention, comparator, and outcomes) question deconstruction, systematic literature review, the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation(GRADE) for evidence and recommendation evaluation, Delphi voting, and expert consensus. The guideline presents 26 evidence-based recommendations addressing 7 clinical questions for patients with hyperuricemia and gout in the context of comorbidities. Key recommendations include the maintenance of strict serum urate targets, particularly for patients with CKD stage≥3, chronic gouty arthritis, and OA, in order to prevent disease progression. In patients with CVD or diabetes, intra-articular triamcinolone is preferred over systemic glucocorticoids. Prioritized anti-inflammatory treatments for patients with CKD, gastrointestinal diseases and OA are recommended. The guideline also introduces emerging therapies, such as interleukin-1 inhibitors and selective urate transport inhibitors, as potential treatment options for refractory cases. The update offers a comprehensive, patient-centered approach to managing gout, particularly in individuals with associated comorbidities. Multidisciplinary collaboration and emerging new treatments and evidence ensure the optimization of the recommendations.

Objective:To summarize the clinical characteristics of congenital chylothorax (CC) in neonates, and to analyze the effects of conservative treatment and the prognosis.Methods:A case control study was conducted.Clinical data of neonates with CC treated in the Department of Neonatal Surgical Intensive Care Unit, Guangzhou Women and Children′s Medical Center Guangzhou Medical University, from January 2015 to April 2023 were collected.The patients were divided into a survival group and a death group according to the outcome.SPSS 26.0 software was used for statistical analysis, and binary Logistic regression was used for the analysis of risk factors for death.Results:A total of 55 patients were included in this study, including 35 males and 20 females.The gestational age at birth and birth weight were 37.1 (34.7, 38.7) weeks and 3 250 (2 640, 3 540) g, respectively.Among the patients included, 30 cases had bilateral pleural effusion, 25 cases had unilateral pleural effusion, and 22 cases had hydrops fetalis; 50 cases were prenatally diagnosed with pleural effusion, with the mean gestational age at diagnosis being 31.0(26.0, 34.6) weeks.Additionally, 21 cases had polyhydramnios, and 18 cases had mediastinal displacement.Ten cases received intrauterine treatment and 17 cases were treated with octreotide.The maximum daily amount of pleural effusion was 31.7(12.0, 62.5) mL/kg, and pleural effusion resolved within 14 (6, 22) days.The length of hospital stay was 23 (12, 36) days.Forty-four cases survived, while 11 cases died.The differences in polyhydramnios, gestational age, bilateral pleural effusion, hydrops fetalis and Apgar score were significant between the survival and death groups (all P<0.05).Binary Logistic regression analysis revealed that bilateral pleural effusion and a low 5-minute Apgar score were independent risk factors for early death in neonates with CC (all P<0.05).A total of 38 children were followed up at the age of 2.30 (1.24, 3.46) years.There was 1 case of recurrence, and none of the patients experienced recurrent respiratory infections. Conclusions:CC is most common in full-term infants and has a predominantly bilateral effusion, its long-term prognosis with conservative treatment is promising.However, neonates with CC who present with bilateral pleural effusion or low 5-minute Apgar scores have an increased risk of early mortality.

Objective:To analyze the effect of joint management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) between specialty and community under the model of National Diabetes Prevention and Control Center (DPCC).Methods:A total of 2 527 T2DM patients managed by DPCC Pingshan Center of Shenzhen from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2024 were retrospectively included. After management, the rate of downturn, reexamination rate, blood pressure compliance rate, metabolic indicators (waist circumference, body mass index, fasting blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, blood lipids) and screening rate of chronic complications of diabetes (atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, microvascular disease, diabetic peripheral neuropathy) were analyzed. Those included 2022 ( n=564), 2023 ( n=1 477), and 2024 ( n=2 527). Results:The downturn rate in 2022, 2023 and 2024 increased year by year (22.8% vs 67.2% vs 89.9%, P<0.01), and the review rate (41.1% vs 62.2% vs 52.7%, P<0.01), complication screening rate (51.6% vs 85.3% vs 62.2%, P<0.01), blood pressure compliance rate (53.1% vs 78.0% vs 67.2%, P<0.01), body mass index compliance rate (13.2% vs 17.3% vs 28.6%, P<0.01), fasting blood glucose meeting rate (46.4% vs 60.2% vs 68.5%, P<0.01), glycated hemoglobin meeting rate (58.4% vs 63.2% vs 45.6%, P<0.01) were relatively improved. Waist circumference compliance rate (30.6% vs 27.7% vs 21.6%) and blood lipid compliance rate (33.6% vs 35.5% vs 31.9%) were not significantly improved, and the review rate, blood pressure compliance rate and complication screening rate in 2024 were lower than those in 2023 and higher than those in 2022. Conclusions:The combined management of type 2 diabetes under the DPCC model has significant effects on improving the down-conversion rate, rediagnosis rate, blood pressure compliance rate, metabolic index compliance rate and the screening rate of diabetes-related chronic complications in patients with diabetes. At the same time, it was also found that with the progress of hierarchical diagnosis and treatment, the review rate, complication screening rate, blood pressure, waist circumference, blood lipid and glycosylated hemoglobin reached the standard of patients decreased compared with the previous situation, which needs to be further analyzed and improved.
