Objective:To investigate the risk factors for kidney injury during anti-retroviral therapy (ART) with zidovudine (AZT) or tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) in human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) patients, and to construct and validate a prediction model for the risk of kidney injury in HIV/AIDS patients based on a nomogram.Methods:A total of 923 HIV/AIDS patients admitted to Liuzhou People′s Hospital between January 1st, 2004 and December 31st, 2020 were included in this study. The modeling set (647 cases) and the validation set (276 cases) were divided in a 7∶3 ratio. Risk factors were screened using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression analysis, and a nomogram prediction model for renal impairment risk in HIV/AIDS patients was constructed based on the selected variables. The model′s predictive performance was assessed by calculating the area under the curve (AUC) using the receiver operating characteristics curve (ROC curve). The performance of this model was evaluated using calibration curves. The clinical utility of the model was assessed using decision curve analysis (DCA).Results:Among 923 HIV/AIDS patients, there were 91 cases with kidney injury, including 67 in the modeling set and 24 in the validation set. AZT was used in 29 cases, and TDF was used in 62 cases. LASSO regression analysis was employed to screen seven non-zero variables, including age, ART regimen, baseline estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), baseline CD4 + T lymphocyte count, baseline human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) RNA, baseline hemoglobin, and baseline aspartate aminotransferase (AST), their LASSO regression coefficient were 1.296, 0.250, 1.443, 0.240, 0.120, 0.395, and 0.002, respectively. Based on these variables, a visual nomogram model was constructed and subsequently validated. Through ROC curve analysis, the AUC for the modeling set was 0.826 (95% confidence interval ( CI) 0.767 to 0.884), with a sensitivity of 0.731 and a specificity of 0.809. For the validation set, the AUC was 0.872 (95% CI 0.807 to 0.956), with a sensitivity of 0.875 and a specificity of 0.778. The calibration curve results for the modeling set showed a mean absolute error (MAE) of 0.012 and a consistency index of 0.826, while the validation set had an MAE of 0.021 and a consistency index of 0.872. These results indicated that the model had a high goodness-of-fit, excellent calibration performance, and was reliable and stable. When the risk threshold for the modeling set ranged from 2% to 73%, the model demonstrated favorable net benefits, indicating its excellent clinical utility. Conclusion:The nomogram-based risk prediction model for kidney injury in HIV/AIDS patients is constructed using seven variables including age, ART regimen, baseline eGFR, baseline CD4 + T lymphocyte count, baseline HIV RNA, baseline hemoglobin, and baseline AST, which provides a valuable tool for early identification of individuals at risk of kidney injury and supports timely clinical interventions.

OBJECTIVETo explore the effects of early intervention of acupuncture on urinary function reconstruction of neurogenic bladder after spinal cord injury, so as to find the optimal treatment timing of acupuncture.
METHODSFifty-three patients of neurogenic bladder after spinal cord injury were randomly divided into a prior-to-catheter group (25 cases) and a posterior-to-catheter group (28 cases). For the prior-to-catheter group, one week before the removal of catheter, acupoints on the abdomen and back such as Guanyuan (CV 4), Zhongji (CV 3), Baliao (Shangliao (BL 31), Ciliao (BL 32), Zhongliao (BL 33), Xialiao (BL 34), Jiaji (EX-B 2) and acupoints at distal end such as Zusanli (ST 36) and Sanyinjiao (SP 6) were selected; after the catheter removal, simple method. of water column was used to measure bladder capacity pressure to classify the type of bladder, and then different acupuncture manipulations were given; intermittent catheterization was performed if condition was allowed. The posterior-to-catheter group applied identical treatment after removal of catheter as the prior-to-catheter group. The treatment was given 5 times per week; after one-month treatment, five aspects including the time of first effective urination, time of establishing reflex urination, average residual volume of urine, time of residual urine less than 100 mL and quality of life (QOL) were evaluated.
RESULTSAfter treatment, the time of first effective urination, time of establishing reflex urination, average residual volume of urine and time of residual urineless than 100 mL in the prior-to-catheter group were all superior to those in the posterior-to-catheter group (all P<0. 05) ; the score of QOL was improved in two groups after treatment (both P<0. 01), but the difference between two groups was not statistically significant (P>0. 05); each index of urination function was not significant among patients with different injured segments of spinal cord (all P>0. 05).
CONCLUSIONThe early intervention of acupuncture (prior to catheter) has obvious improving function on establishing balanced bladder in patients with neurogenic bladder after spinal cord injury, which is superior to acupuncture intervention after removal of catheter, however, the effects of different injured segments on establishing balanced bladder are not different.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and drug resistance profiles of nucleosides (NA) retreatment in NA experienced chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients. Methods Totally 104 NA experienced CHB subjects were enrolled in this study.All these subjects had received at least 3 months NA monotherapy and stopped the treatment,and then received NA retreatment for at least one year.The subjects were divided into three groups according to the following criteria:reached the therapy endpoint of China guideline when they stopped NA-naive treatment (group A,n =39); did not reach the therapy endpoint when they stopped NA-naive treatment but hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA<1.0× 103 copy/mL (group B,n=33); and with HBV DNA>1.0× 103 copy/mL (group C,n=32).The efficacy and drug resistance profiles of retreatment were compared among three groups. The effects of baseline alanine aminotransferase (ALT) levels,HBV DNA levels and HBeAg titers on the retreatment efficacies were analyzed. The mutations of HBV P gene were detected by nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and direct sequencing.The data were analyzd by Wilcoxon test and x2 test.Results The time to ALT normalization in patients with baseline ALT< 1.3 × upper limit normal (ULN) was shorter than that in patients with ALT≥1.3×ULN (2 months vs 4 months; Z=2.281,P=0.023).The time to virological response in patients with baseline HBV DNA<5 lg copy/mL was shorter than that in patients with HBV DNA≥5 lg copy/mL (1 month vs 2 months; Z=2.054,P =0.040). The time to virological response and ALT normalization in baseline HBeAg negative were both shorter than those in patients with baseline HBeAg positive patents ( 1 month vs 3 months and 2 months vs 4.5 months,respectively; Z=2.580 and 2.304,respectively; both P<0.05). The subjects in group A achieved virological response and HBeAg seroconversion after retreatment earlier compared to previous NA-naive therapy ([1.61 ± 1.76] months vs [3.48±4.066]months and [3.38 ± 3.34] months vs [9.92-11.22] months,respectively; Z=-2.854 and-1.094,respectively; both P<0.05).The cumulative HBeAg seroconversion rate in group A was higher compared to those in group B and group C (80.0% vs 36.8% and 37.5%,respectively; x2 =4.368 and 5.100,respectively; both P<0.05).Thirteen patients developed clinical resistance and four of them developed genotypic resistance proved by PCR direct sequencing.Among the patients retreated with the same regimen as previous in the C group,the cumulative resistance rate was highest compared to group A and B (44% vs 9% and 0,respectively; x2 =5.019 and 6.588,respectively;both P<0.05).No resistance was detected in the 14 patients retreated with combined NA treatment without cross resistance.Conclusions For NA experienced CHB patients who fulfill the indication of antiviral therapy,the retreatment should be started as earlier as possible. Retreatment with NA combination without cross resistance can prevent (reduce) the risk of developing drug resistance.

Objective To explore the influence factors on hepatitis B virus (HBV) relapse after nucleos(t)ide analogues (NA) withdrawal in the chronic hepatitis B (CHB) patients who met NA cessation criteria. Methods Eighty-one consecutive CHB patients were treated with NA, 38 with lamivudine (LAM), 25 with adefovir dipivoxil (ADV), 12 with entecavir (ETV), 6 with LAM +ADV. Among recruited patients, 40 were hepatitis B virus e antigen (HBeAg) positive, 41 were HBeAg negative, 67 of them were initial treatment, 14 were retreatment due to resistance to NA at baseline. The treatment was discontinued after meeting China therapeutic end-point criteria. HBV DNA, HBV serological markers, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) were measured respectively at baseline, every month before virological response, every 3 months after virological response, every month within first 6 months and every 2 months over 6 months after drugs withdrawal. Twelve probable influence factors on relapse which were sex, age, HBV family history, baseline HBV DNA,baseline HBeAg status, baseline ALT, virological response time, total duration of treatment, duration of additional treatment, the level of hepatitis B virus surface antigen (HBsAg) at cessation therapy,initial treatment or retreatment, drug category were analyzed with univariate, multivariate Cox regression modle and stratified analysis. The cumulative relapse was calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method. Results A total of 36 patients (44. 4%) relapsed within 1 year. Initial treatment or retreatment, HBV family history, virological response time, the level of HBsAg at cessation therapy were independent risk factors. The relapse rate of retreatment was higher than that of initial treatment (78.6% vs 37. 3% , χ2 = 7. 983, P = 0. 005) , those of patients with HBV family history higher than without family history (64. 5% vs 15.0%, χ2 =12. 096,P = 0.002), those of patients obtained virological response within 3 months lower than after 3 months(34. 0% vs 64. 3% , χ2 =6. 823,P=0. 009) , those of patients with HBsAg≤150 μg/L at cessation therapy lower than >150 μg/L(27. 6% vs 53. 8%, χ2=5. 199,P=0. 023). Conclusions Retreatment, HBV family history, later virological response and higher HBsAg level at cessation therapy are risk factors of relapse after NA withdrawal. Such patients should be treated with prolonged duration after meeting end-point criteria to strengthen the efficacy.
