Background: Diabetic macrovascular and microvascular complications often coexist and may share similar risk factors and pathological pathways. We aimed to investigate whether 10-year atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk, which is commonly assessed in diabetes management, can predict incident diabetic nephropathy (DN) and retinopathy (DR) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods: This prospective cohort study enrolled 2,891 patients with clinically diagnosed T2DM who were free of ASCVD, nephropathy, or retinopathy at baseline in the Guangzhou (2017–2022) and Shaoguan (2019–2021) Diabetic Eye Study in southern China. The 10-year ASCVD risk was calculated by the Prediction for ASCVD Risk in China (China-PAR) equations. Multivariable- adjusted Cox proportional hazard models were developed to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was used to evaluate predictive capability. Results: During follow-up, a total of 171 cases of DN and 532 cases of DR were documented. Each 1% increment in 10-year ASCVD risk was associated with increased risk of DN (pooled HR, 1.122; 95% CI, 1.094 to 1.150) but not DR (pooled HR, 0.996; 95% CI, 0.979 to 1.013). The model demonstrated acceptable performance in predicting new-onset DN (pooled AUC, 0.670; 95% CI, 0.628 to 0.715). These results were consistent across cohorts and subgroups, with the association appearing to be more pronounced in women. Conclusion Ten-year ASCVD risk predicts incident DN but not DR in our study population with T2DM. Regular monitoring of ASCVD risk in routine diabetes practice may add to the ability to enhance population-based prevention for both macrovascular and microvascular diseases, particularly among women.

Objective To observe the effectiveness and safety of netupitant/palonosetron in the treat-ment of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting(CINV)in hematologic tumor patients undergoing autol-ogous and allogeneic stem cell transplantation.Methods Adult hematologic tumor patients who received net-upitant/palonosetron to prevent chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting CINV during pre-transplant chemotherapy at West China Hospital of Sichuan University from January to September 2022 were collected.On the first and third day of pre-transplant chemotherapy,netupitant/palonosetron was orally administered one hour before the infusion of pre-transplant chemotherapy drugs,for a total of two doses.The nausea and CINV status of the patients from the start of pre-transplant chemotherapy to 7 days after stem cell infusion were recorded.Results As a result,a total of 125 patients with hematological tumors were included,and the complete remission rates during pre-treatment chemotherapy were 72.8%,80.0%and 66.4%in the acute phase,delayed phase,and total phase,respectively.The rates of no vomiting were 89.6%,92.0%and 72.8%,respectively.The rates of no rescue medication were 95.2%,93.6%and 73.6%,respectively.The complete remission rate of 33 plasma cell tumors and 46 leukemia and myelodysplastic syndrome patients exceeded 70%,and the complete remission rate of 46 lymphoma patients exceeded 90%.The complete response rate in the delayed phase of the pre-treatment CHiGCB regimen(chidamide+busulfan+gemcitabine+cladribine)was 93.5%,which was higher than the complete response rate of the BenMel regimen(bendamustine+mel-phalan)(72.7%)and the CHiFAB regimen(chidamide+busulfan+fludarabine+cytarabine)(71.7%).The complete remission rate during the follow-up period of the CHiGCB regimen was 91.3%,which was higher than that of the CHiFAB regimen(65.2%),with the statistically significance(P<0.05).Conclusion Netu-pitant/palonosetron can effectively control CINV in patients undergoing autologous or allogeneic hematopoiet-ic stem cell transplantation for hematologic tumors.

Objective:To investigate the clinical features,gene mutation profile,efficacy and prognostic factors of primary extranodal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(EN-DLBCL).Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed for 382 patients with primary EN-DLBCL with complete clinical data who were treated in West China Hospital from January 2013 to January 2023,and their clinical characteristics,gene mutation profile,efficacy and prognostic factors were analyzed.Results:The median age of the 382 patients with EN-DLBCL was 56 (18-89 )years old.The male-to-female ratio was 1.12∶1,and the most common primary sites were gastrointestinal tract (31.7％),Wechsler ring (19. 1％)and breast gland (7.1％).A total of 51 gene mutations were fund,and the most common frequencies of gene mutations were TP53 (32.5％),MYD88 (32.5％),and CD79B (30.0％).The median follow-up was 63 months,and the 5-year progression-free survival (PFS)rate was 74.5％ and the 5-year overall survival (OS)rate was 89.6％. The adverse factors on PFS were as follows:>1 extranodal sites involvement (P<0.001),P53≥50％(P<0.001),hyper double expression(hDEL)of C-myc>50％/Bcl-2>70％(P<0.001).The adverse factors affecting the OS of patients were as follows:>1 extranodal sites involvement (P<0.001),P53≥50％(P<0.001),hDEL(P<0.001). Chemotherapy combined with local radiotherapy could improve PFS (P=0.041)and OS (P=0.003),while R-CHOP+X (molecule agents as BTKi、HDACi、Lenalidomide)failed to show a significant difference in PFS (P=0.075)and OS (P=0.767 ).Among the 40 patients who underwent next-generation sequencing at high risk,there was no significant in PFS (P=0.849)and OS (P=0.500)of patients with positive MYD88 and/or CD79B mutations (MCD subtype)treated with BTKi and patients with negative MYD88 and CD79B mutations.Conclusion:Primary EN-DLBCL can involve multiple organs or tissue sites.TP53,MYD88,and CD79B are the most common gene mutations.The efficacy of BTKi in patients with positive MCD subtypes at intermediate and high risk is not inferior to that in MCD-negative control patients.

Aim To investigate the changes in the proliferation and apoptosis of Siha cells after knocking down Rho GTPase-activating protein 30(ARHGAP30).Methods After designing specific shARHGAP30 primers and connecting them to the pLKO.1 vector,we transformed them into Escherichia coli competent cells,then co-transfecting them with lentiviral helper plasmids into HEK-293T cells.We collected and filtered cell supernatant to obtain the vi-rus to infect Siha cells.RT-qPCR and Western blot were used to detect knockdown efficiency,as well as changes in the expression of Bax and Bcl-2 after trans-fection.The CCK-8 method was employed to measure the proliferation level of cells after knockdown.Results After successful construction of a lentiviral plasmid with knockdown of the ARHGAP30 gene and establish-ment of stably transfected Siha cells,ARHGAP30 tran-scription and translation(P＜0.01)in Siha cells de-creased,Bax/Bcl-2 significantly decreased(P＜0.01),indicating decreased apoptosis and increased cell proliferation(P＜0.01).Conclusions This study suggests the involvement of ARHGAP30 in the proliferation and apoptosis of Siha cells,and regulating the ARHGAP30 gene may interfere with the occurrence and development of cervical cancer.

Objective To investigate the effect of sakubatrotril and valsartan in the treatment of heart failure after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)for acute myocardial infarction(AMI).Methods AMI patients who received PCI were randomly divided into treatment group and control group.Both groups were given routine basic treatment such as anti-platelet aggregation,lipidregulation,β-blocker and diuretic tolasemide,while the control group was given enalapril maleate tablet(5 mg,bid).The treatment group was given sacubactril valsartan sodium tablets(5 mg,bid)in addition to basic treatment.The clinical efficacy,myocardial injury markers,cardiac function,ventricular remodeling indexes,vascular endothelial function and cardiovascular adverse events(MACEs)were compared between the two groups.Results The treatment group and the control group were enrolled in 40 patients.After 3 months of treatment,the total effective rate of the treatment group was 95.00％and that of the control group was 80.00％.The difference between the total effective rate of the treatment group and the control group was statistically significant(P＜0.05).After 3 months of treatment,the levels of creatine kinase isoenzyme(CK-MB)in treatment group and control group were(30.23±5.28)and(36.58±7.05)U·L-1,respectively;cardiac troponin Ⅰ(cTnⅠ)were(1.04±0.18)and(1.25±0.31)ng·mL-1,respectively;left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF)were(40.29±6.32)％and(34.39±5.62)％,and endothelium-dependent diastolic function(FMD)were(15.72±2.83)％and(9.55±2.05)％,respectively;nitric oxide(NO)levels were(47.41±5.85)and(41.28±3.37)μmol·L-1;endothelin-1(ET-1)was(70.53±8.29)and(83.62±10.11)ng·L-1,respectively.Compared with the control group,the above indexes in treatment groups were statistically significant(all P＜0.05).The incidence of MACEs was 10.00％in treatment group and 25.00％in control group,with no statistical significance(P＞0.05).After 3 months of treatment,the incidence of adverse drug reactions in AMI patients in treatment group was 12.50％,and that in control group was 17.50％.There was no statistical significance in the incidence of adverse drug reactions in treatment group compared with control group(P＞0.05).Conclusion Sacubactril valsartan can effectively prevent ventricular remodeling and improve vascular endothelial function in patients with heart failure after PCI.

This study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effect of Yunkang Oral Solution on the improvement of spleen deficiency and pregnancy outcomes in pregnant mice with spleen deficiency syndrome induced by irregular diet and over consumption of cold and bitter foods. To simulate human irregular diet and over consumption of cold and bitter foods leading to spleen deficiency, the pregnant mice with spleen deficiency syndrome were prepared using an alternate-day fasting and high-fat diet combined with oral administration of Sennae Folium. During the experiment, spleen deficiency-related indicators and diarrhea-related parameters were measured. Gastric and intestinal motility(gastric emptying rate and intestinal propulsion rate) were evaluated. The levels of serum ghrelin, growth hormone(GH), gastrin(Gas), total cholesterol(TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-c), chorionic gonadotropin β(β-CG), progesterone(P), and estradiol(E_2) were measured. Intestinal barrier function in pregnant mice with spleen deficiency syndrome was assessed. Conception rate, ovarian coefficient, litter-bearing uterine coefficient, number of live fetuses, average fetal weight, and fetal length were calculated. The results showed that Yunkang Oral Solution significantly improved spleen deficiency-related indicators and diarrhea in pregnant mice with spleen deficiency syndrome, increased gastric emptying rate and intestinal propulsion rate, elevated the levels of gastrointestinal hormones(ghrelin, GH, and Gas) in the serum, and reduced lipid levels(TC and LDL-c), thereby improving lipid metabolism disorders. It also improved colonic tissue morphology, increased the number of goblet cells, and promoted the mRNA and protein expression of occludin and claudin-1 in colonic tissues, thereby alleviating intestinal barrier damage. Yunkang Oral Solution also regulated the levels of pregnancy hormones(β-CG, P, and E_2) in the serum of pregnant mice with spleen deficiency syndrome. Moreover, it increased the conception rate, ovarian coefficient, litter-bearing uterine coefficient, number of live fetuses, average fetal weight, and fetal length. These findings suggest that Yunkang Oral Solution can improve spleen deficiency-related symptoms in pregnant mice before and during pregnancy, regulate pregnancy-related hormones, and improve pregnancy outcomes.

Objective: To investigate the clinical characteristics, cytogenetics, molecular biology, treatment, and prognosis of patients with therapy-related myelodysplastic syndrome and acute myeloid leukemia (t-MDS/AML) secondary to malignancies. Methods: The clinical data of 86 patients with t-MDS/AML in West China Hospital of Sichuan University between January 2010 and April 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical characteristics, primary tumor types, and tumor-related therapies were analyzed. Results: The study enrolled a total of 86 patients with t-MDS/AML, including 67 patients with t-AML, including 1 patient with M(0), 6 with M(1), 27 with M(2), 9 with M(3), 12 with M(4), 10 with M(5), 1 with M(6), and 1 with M(7). Sixty-two patients could be genetically stratified, with a median overall survival (OS) of 36 (95% CI 22-52) months for 20 (29.9%) patients in the low-risk group and 6 (95% CI 3-9) months for 10 (14.9%) in the intermediate-risk group. The median OS time was 8 (95% CI 1-15) months in 32 (47.8%) patients in the high-risk group. For patients with non-acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) and AML, the median OS of the low-risk group was 27 (95% CI 18-36) months, which was significantly longer than that of the non-low-risk group (χ(2)=5.534, P=0.019). All 9 APL cases were treated according to the initial treatment, and the median OS was not reached, and the 1-, 2-, and 3-year OS rates were 100.0%, (75.0±6.2) %, and (75.0±6.2) % respectively. Of the 58 patients with non-APL t-AML (89.7%), 52 received chemotherapy, and 16 achieved complete remission (30.8%) after the first induction chemotherapy. The 1-, 2-, and 3-year OS rates of the non-APL t-AML group were (42.0 ± 6.6) %, (22.9±5.7) %, and (13.4±4.7) %, respectively. The median OS of patients who achieved remission was 24 (95% CI 18-30) months, and the median OS of those who did not achieve remission was 6 (95% CI 3-9) months (χ(2)=10.170, P=0.001). Bone marrow CR was achieved in 7 (53.8%) of 13 patients treated with vineclar-containing chemotherapy, with a median OS of 12 (95% CI 9-15) months, which was not significantly different from that of vineclar-containing chemotherapy (χ(2)=0.600, P=0.437). In 19 patients with t-MDS, the 1-, 2-, and 3-year OS rates were (46.8±11.6) %, (17.5±9.1) %, and (11.7±9.1) % with a median OS of 12 (95% CI 7-17) months, which was not significantly different from that in t-AML (χ(2)=0.232, P=0.630) . Conclusions: Breast cancer, bowel cancer, and other primary tumors are common in patients with t-MDS/AML, which have a higher risk of adverse genetics. Patients with APL had a high induction remission rate and a good long-term prognosis, whereas patients without APL had a low remission rate and a poor long-term prognosis.
