OBJECTIVE To provide reference for optimizing or formulating unified evaluation methods for evidence and recommendation in expert consensus on off-label use of drugs. METHODS Retrieved from CNKI， Wanfang data， VIP， CBM， PubMed and Web of Science， Chinese expert consensuses on off-label use of drugs involving evaluation methods for evidence and recommendations were collected from the inception to August 1， 2024. After screening the literature and extracting relevant data， descriptive statistical analysis was conducted. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS Among the 32 articles included， 14 articles （43.8%） used Micromedex’s Thomson grading system， only 7 articles （21.9%） considered economic factors when forming recommendations， 10 articles （31.3%） reported the conflicts of interest； only 2 articles （6.3%） involved experts in the field of evidence-based medicine methodology. There were differences in the sources of evidence， factors considered in forming recommendations， and the grading standards for evidence and recommendations among different expert consensus evidence evaluation methods. There were also differences in evidence levels and recommendation strength of the same drug off-label use in different expert consensus. It is recommended that in future consensus-building processes， greater attention should be paid to potential conflicts of interest among participants， collaboration with methodological experts should be enhanced， and efforts should be expedited to establish unified standards for evaluating evidence and recommendation methodologies.

Objective To conduct preliminary evaluation of the reliability and safety of pancreatic duct-to-jejunum stent-bridging internal drainage as a supplementary approach to pancreaticojejunostomy in central pancreatectomy.Methods The clinical data of 28 patients who underwent robotic central pancreatectomy performed by our team between January 2021 and November 2024 were retrospectively collected,and and follow-up of postoperative endocrine and exocrine functions was performed.Based on the methods of digestive tract reconstruction adopted,the patients were divided into a conventional pancreaticojejunostomy group and a pancreatic duct-to-jejunum stent-bridging internal drainage group(PancreaticoJejunal-Stent bridge group).The operative time,digestive tract reconstruction time,and short-term complications were compared between the two groups.Results Among patients undergoing robotic central pancreatectomy,the digestive tract reconstruction time was shorter(t=5.168,P<0.001)in the PancreaticoJejunal-Stent bridge group([31.1±6.3]min)than that in the conventional pancreaticojejunostomy group([49.7±8.9]min)(t=5.168,P<0.001).The total operative time was(172.7±64.6)min in the PancreaticoJejunal-Stent bridge group and(200.1±52.7)min in the conventional pancreaticojejunostomy group,showing no statistically significant difference(t=1.215,P=0.235).In the PancreaticoJejunal-Stent bridge group,one patient developed a postoperative biochemical fistula,and 14 patients developed grade B pancreatic fistulas.Among the 14 patients with grade B pancreatic fistulas,1 case was complicated by fistula-related intra-abdominal infection,and 13 cases had drainage tube retention time of more than 21 days.In the conventional pancreaticojejunostomy group,2 patients developed postoperative biochemical fistulas,and 11 patients developed grade B pancreatic fistulas.Among the 11 patients with grade B pancreatic fistulas,1 case was complicated by fistula-related intra-abdominal infection,and 1 case was complicated by fistula-related intra-abdominal bleeding and infection.No postoperative gastroparesis,pancreatitis,or grade C pancreatic fistulas occurred in either group.There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in overall postoperative complication rate(P=0.522),postoperative pancreatic fistula rate(P=0.583),intra-abdominal infection rate(P=0.583),or bleeding rate(P=0.464).Conclusion Pancreatic duct-to-jejunum stent-bridging internal drainage optimizes the anastomosis between the distal end of the pancreas and the jejunum during central pancreatectomy,shortens digestive tract reconstruction time,and reduces surgical complexity without increasing the risk of short-term severe postoperative complications.This approach is safe and feasible.

ObjectiveTo investigate the therapeutic effect of Siegesbeckiae Herba water decoction （SWD） at different doses on atherosclerosis （AS） in a mouse model induced by a high-fat diet and analyze its potential mechanism of action. MethodsThirty-six male ApoE^-/- mice were randomly divided into six groups： blank control group， model group， low-dose， medium-dose， and high-dose SWD groups， and positive control group. Firstly， the AS mouse model was created by feeding mice a high-fat diet. After successful modeling， the low-， medium-， and high-dose SWD groups were intragastrically administered with SWD at 0.65， 1.3， 2.6 g·kg^-1， respectively. The positive control group was intragastrically administered with 30 mg·kg^-1 of atorvastatin calcium aqueous solution， while the blank and model groups received an equal volume of 0.9% sodium chloride solution via oral gavage， all administered for 12 weeks. During the administration period， the general condition of the mice was observed and recorded daily. Before sampling， color Doppler ultrasound was performed to observe the pathological changes in atherosclerotic plaques in the aortic wall of mice. Hematoxylin-eosin （HE） staining was used to observe the pathological changes in aortic tissue in mice， and oil red O staining was used to detect the atherosclerotic plaque area in the aorta. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） was used to detect the serum lipid indices and the levels of interleukins （IL-1β， IL-4， IL-6， and IL-10） and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） in mice. Protein expression levels of IKKα， IKKβ， and NF-κB p65 in mouse aortic tissue were detected by Western blot. ResultsCompared with the blank control group， the model group showed a significant increase in body weight. The results of color Doppler ultrasound showed enhanced vascular wall echo， suggesting the presence of atherosclerotic plaques. HE staining showed foam cell aggregation， fibrous connective tissue proliferation， and vascular intima injury in the aortic tissue. Oil red O staining showed a significant increase in the plaque area in the aortic tissue （P<0.01）. ELISA results indicated significantly elevated levels of IL-1β， IL-6， TNF-α， total cholesterol （TC）， triglyceride （TG）， and low-density lipoprotein （LDL） in mouse serum （P<0.01）， as well as significantly decreased levels of IL-4， IL-10， and high-density lipoprotein （HDL） （P<0.01）. Western blot results showed that the expression of IKKα， IKKβ， and NF-κB p65 in mouse aortic tissue increased significantly （P<0.01）. Compared with those in the model group， mice in the middle- and high-dose SWD groups showed significant weight loss. In the high-dose group， the aortic vascular wall echoes were weakened， and the atherosclerotic plaques were reduced. The aortic lesions of mice in the medium- and high-dose SWD groups were significantly alleviated. The plaque area percentage showed an inverse correlation with the administered dose in all groups treated with SWD （P<0.05）. In the medium-dose SWD group， serum levels of IL-1β， IL-6， TNF-α， TC， TG， and LDL were significantly decreased （P<0.05， P<0.01）， while those of IL-4 and IL-10 were significantly increased （P<0.01）. In the high-dose SWD group， levels of IL-1β， IL-6， TNF-α， TC， TG， and LDL were significantly decreased （P<0.01）， while IL-4， IL-10， and HDL were significantly increased （P<0.01）. The IKKα and IKKβ expression was significantly decreased in the low-dose SWD group （P<0.05）， and IKKα， IKKβ， and NF-κB p65 were significantly decreased in the medium- and high-dose SWD groups （P<0.05， P<0.01）. ConclusionSWD may exert therapeutic effects on AS by regulating the expression of related inflammatory factors through the NF-κB signaling pathway， thereby reducing inflammation， plaque area， and lipid content in the body.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effect of superoxide dismutase （SOD） administration on the malignant behavior of PLC/PRF/5 liver cancer cells， and analyze the correlation between SOD and alpha-fetoprotein （AFP） expression， to provide new ideas for targeting AFP with SOD as a drug for hepatocellular carcinoma. METHODS Normal human liver cells L-02， AFP- negative human liver cancer cells HLE， and AFP-positive human liver cancer cells PLC/PRF/5 were used as experimental cells. Western blot assay and SOD activity detection kit were used to detect the expression of AFP， SOD and activity of SOD in cells before and after changing AFP expression； the effects of different concentrations of SOD [0 （control）， 0.188， 0.375， 0.75， 1.5， 3 U/mL] administration on the migration and proliferation of PLC/PRF/5 cells were detected using cell scratch assay and CCK-8 assay. The effects of SOD overexpression on the expression of malignant biological behavior-related proteins AFP and sarcoma virus protein （Src） in PLC/PRF/5 cells were detected using Western blot. RESULTS Compared with L-02 group and HLE group， the expression levels of SOD1 and SOD2， and SOD activity in PLC/PRF/5 cells were significantly reduced （P＜0.05）. After down-regulating AFP expression in PLC/PRF/ 5 cells， compared with PLC/PRF/5 group， the expression levels of SOD1 and SOD2， as well as SOD activity， were significantly increased in the PLC/PRF/5-shAFP group （low-expression） （P＜0.05）. After 48 hours of SOD treatment， compared with control group， the scratch healing rates of PLC/PRF/5 cells in the 0.375， 0.75， 1.5 and 3 U/mL SOD groups were significantly reduced （P＜0.05）； after 72 hours of SOD treatment， compared with control group， the scratch healing rates of PLC/PRF/5 cells in the 0.375， 0.75， and 1.5 U/mL SOD groups were significantly reduced （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with control group， proliferation rates of PLC/PRF/5 cells were significantly reduced in the 0.375， 0.75， 1.5 and 3 U/mL SOD groups （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with the PLC/PRF/5 group before up-regulating SOD1 and SOD2 expression， the expression levels of AFP and Src in the PLC/PRF/5-oeSOD1 and PLC/PRF/5-oeSOD2 groups （over-expression） after up-regulating SOD1 and SOD2 expression were significantly reduced （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS A certain concentration of SOD can inhibit malignant behavior such as migration and proliferation of PLC/PRF/5 cells， and the expression level and activity of SOD are negatively correlated with AFP.

OBJECTIVES: This study investigated the effects of a polycaprolactone (PCL)-polyethylene glycol (PEG) scaffold incorporated with concentrated growth factor (CGF) on the adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs). METHODS: The PCL-PEG-CGF composite scaffold was fabricated using an immersion and freeze-drying technique. Its microstructure, mechanical properties, and biocompatibility were systematically characterized. The hPDLSCs were isolated through enzymatic digestion, and the hPDLSCs were identified through flow cytometry. Third-passage hPDLSCs were seeded onto the composite scaffolds, and their adhesion, proliferation and osteogenic differentiation were assessed using CCK-8 assays, 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) staining, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining, alizarin red staining, and Western blot analysis of osteogenesis-related proteins [Runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), ALP, and morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2)]. RESULTS: Scanning electron microscopy revealed that the PCL-PEG-CGF composite scaffold exhibited a honeycomb-like structure with heterogeneous pore sizes. The composite scaffold exhibited excellent hydrophilicity, as evidenced by a contact angle (θ) approaching 0° within 6 s. Its elastic modulus was measured at (4.590 0±0.149 3) MPa, with comparable hydrophilicity, fracture tensile strength, and fracture elongation to PCL-PEG scaffold. The hPDLSCs exhibited significantly improved adhesion to the PCL-PEG-CGF composite scaffold compared with the PCL-PEG scaffold (P<0.01). Additionally, cell proliferation was markedly improved in all the experimental groups on days 3, 5, and 7 (P<0.01), and statistically significant differences were found between the PCL-PEG-CGF group and other groups (P<0.01). The PCL-PEG-CGF group showed significantly elevated ALP activity (P<0.05), increased mineralization nodule formation, and upregulated expression of osteogenic-related proteins (Runx2, BMP2 and ALP; P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The PCL-PEG-CGF composite scaffold exhibited excellent mechanical properties and biocompatibility, enhancing the adhesion and proliferation of hPDLSCs and promoting their osteogenic differentiation by upregulating osteogenic-related proteins.

BACKGROUND:Total knee arthroplasty is one of the effective methods to treat end-stage knee osteoarthritis.However,some patients still experience chronic post-surgical pain.It is significant to find out the influencing factors of chronic post-surgical pain.Demographic factors,social psychological factors and perioperative pain were the focus of previous studies,but muscle factors closely related to the occurrence and development of knee osteoarthritis were rarely reported. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the value of preoperative quantitative ultrasound analysis of quadriceps femoris in predicting chronic post-surgical pain after total knee arthroplasty. METHODS:A total of 250 patients with knee osteoarthritis who underwent the first unilateral total knee arthroplasty under elective general anesthesia from January to August 2022 in the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University were selected.All patients were treated with the same anesthesia and operative methods.Before the surgery,clinical data were recorded,and the thickness and echo intensity of quadriceps femoris on the operated side were measured by ultrasound imaging,which could quantify the degree of quadriceps femoris atrophy.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the independent factors affecting the occurrence of chronic post-surgical pain,and receiver operating characteristic curves were used to evaluate its predictive value. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)250 subjects were involved in the result analysis,and 91 of them had chronic post-surgical pain,with an incidence of 36.4%.(2)There were significant differences between the chronic pain and non-chronic pain groups in preoperative pain score during movement,preoperative Western Ontario and McMaster University Osteoarthritis Index,preoperative anxiety and depression scale score,preoperative muscle thickness and echo intensity of quadriceps femoris,and postoperative acute pain score(P<0.05).(3)Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative thickness of quadriceps femoris was an independent protective factor for chronic post-surgical pain and preoperative pain score during movement was an independent risk factor for chronic post-surgical pain.(4)Receiver operating characteristic curves showed that the area under the curve of the preoperative thickness of quadriceps femoris was 0.625(95%CI:0.555-0.695),and the critical value was 2.78 cm,sensitivity was 0.802,specificity was 0.415.(5)It is concluded that the preoperative thickness of quadriceps femoris is an independent protective factor for chronic post-surgical pain,but its predictive efficacy is low,and its clinical application needs to be further verified or modified.

Objective:To compare the efficacy, dosage, and safety of dupilumab combined with minocycline or with minocycline and systemic glucocorticoids (sGC) versus minocycline alone or in combination with sGC in patients with bullous pemphigoid (BP) .Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted on BP patients who visited the Department of Dermatology, Peking University First Hospital from March 2021 to June 2022 and were treated with one of the following two therapeutic regimens: minocycline alone or in combination with sGC (M-MG group), and dupilumab combined with minocycline or with minocycline and sGC (MD-MGD group). Disease control rates, time to disease control, complete remission rates, time to complete remission, BP disease area index (BPDAI) scores, drug usage, time to pruritus relief, relapse rates, and occurrence rates of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups. Survival analysis was performed using Kaplan-Meier (KM) curves and Log-rank test. Confounders were controlled by 1∶1 matching on the propensity score in the two groups.Results:A total of 164 patients were collected, including 110 in the M-MG group (62 males and 48 females, aged 74.6 ± 12.8 years) and 54 in the MD-MGD group (33 males and 21 females, aged 74.6 ± 13.3 years). After two-week follow-up, there was no significant difference in the disease control rate between the two groups ( P = 0.341); however, the minocycline dose, proportion of patients using sGC, sGC dose, and cumulative sGC dose were all significantly higher in the M-MG group than in the MD-MGD group (all P < 0.05). A total of 152 patients (92.7%) achieved disease control in the two groups during the follow-up, while the disease control rate and time to disease control did not differ between the two groups (both P > 0.05); 52 patients (31.7%) achieved complete remission, there was no significant difference in the complete remission rate between the MD-MGD group (16/54, 29.6%) and M-MG group (36/110, 32.7%; χ2 = 0.16, P = 0.689), but the time to complete remission ( M[ Q1, Q3]) was significantly shorter in the MD-MGD group (98.5[78.0, 185.2] days) than in the M-MG group (223.5 [175.2, 277.0] days, P = 0.001). KM survival curve analysis showed that the cumulative complete remission rate was significantly higher in the MD-MGD group than in the M-MG group ( P = 0.024). A total of 73 patients (44.5%) recorded the time to pruritus relief during the follow-up, and the MD-MGD group showed significantly shorter time to pruritus relief (54 patients, 14.0 [3.0, 14.0] days) compared with the M-MG group (19 patients, 14.0 [7.0, 19.0] days; P = 0.015). After propensity score matching, each group included 42 patients; during the follow-up, there was no significant difference in the complete remission rate between the M-MG group and MD-MGD group ( P > 0.05), but the time to complete remission was significantly longer in the M-MG group than in the MD-MGD group ( P = 0.019); KM survival curve analysis showed that the cumulative complete remission rate was significantly higher in the MD-MGD group than in the M-MG group ( P = 0.041). Among the 164 patients, adverse reactions occurred in 58 (35.4%), grade 3 or more severe adverse reactions occurred in 11 (6.70%), but no dupilumab-related adverse reactions were reported. Conclusions:Compared with minocycline alone or in combination with sGC in the treatment of BP, the dupilumab combination therapy could relieve pruritus and result in complete remission in a shorter time. Additionally, dupilumab could help to accelerate the reduction in dosages of sGC and minocycline, with few adverse reactions and favorable safety.

Objective:To analyze the short- and medium-term efficacy, factors influencing the efficacy, and safety of dupilumab alone or in combination for the treatment of bullous pemphigoid (BP) .Methods:A single-center retrospective cohort study was conducted. Clinical data were collected from adult BP patients, who were regularly followed up and treated with dupilumab at the Department of Dermatology, Peking University First Hospital between March 2021 and June 2022. Dupilumab was administered subcutaneously every 2 weeks at a dose of 300 mg (except for the initial dose being 600 mg). Previous medications included glucocorticoids, minocycline, immunosuppressants, etc., and their dose remained unchanged or decreased according to patient condition. The short- and medium-term response rates were evaluated at weeks 2 and 16 after the first injection of dupilumab, respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was conducted to identify factors influencing the disease control rate at week 2, and odds ratios ( ORs) were calculated; a multivariate Cox regression model was employed to analyze factors influencing the disease control rate within 16 weeks of follow-up, and hazard ratios ( HRs) were calculated; multiple linear regression analysis was performed to determine factors associated with the time to pruritus relief. Results:A total of 104 BP patients were eligible, including 60 males and 44 females; they were aged 75.6 ± 12.8 years, and the disease duration ( M [ Q1, Q3]) was 4.0 (2.0, 17.0) months. According to the percentage of the lesion area to the total body surface area, the disease severity was graded, and there were 17 mild cases, 30 moderate cases, 31 severe cases, and 26 extremely severe cases; 56 patients (53.9%) were treated with dupilumab combined with oral glucocorticoids at doses of 20.0 (15.0, 30.0) mg/d. At week 2 after the start of treatment, 63 patients (60.6%) achieved disease control, and 37 (35.6%) achieved marked disease control, resulting in a short-term response rate of 96.2%. Fifty-five patients were followed up for 16 weeks, 54 (98.2%) achieved improvement, and the systemic glucocorticoid dose was reduced to 10.0 (10.0, 17.5) mg/d. Disease control was achieved in 92 of 104 patients (88.5%) within 16 weeks, with the time to disease control being 14.0 (13.0, 26.0) days and the time to pruritus relief being 12.0 (3.0, 14.0) days. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the higher the baseline disease severity, the lower the disease control rate at week 2 (compared with extremely severe cases, mild cases: OR = 37.655, 95% CI: 3.664, 386.981; moderate cases: OR = 12.143, 95% CI: 2.609, 56.528; severe cases: OR = 4.014, 95% CI: 1.121, 14.369, all P < 0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that compared with severe BP patients, mild ( HR = 2.478, 95% CI: 1.200, 5.114, P = 0.014) and moderate BP patients ( HR = 2.076, 95% CI: 1.067, 4.038, P = 0.031) were more likely to achieve disease control during the 16-week treatment and follow-up. Multiple linear regression analysis revealed that the disease duration significantly influenced the time to pruritus relief ( P = 0.006), and the longer the disease duration, the longer the time to pruritus relief. During the follow-up, 13 adverse events occurred in 11 patients (10.6%), including 6 with pulmonary infections, 2 with heart failures, 1 with scabies, 1 with viral conjunctivitis, 1 with pericardial effusion (with a high likelihood of idiopathic pericarditis), 1 with organ failure, and 1 with intracerebral hemorrhage, but none of them were clearly related to dupilumab and most of them did not affect the treatment continuation; 3 deaths were reported, including 2 due to organ failures and 1 due to lung infection, which were all unrelated to dupilumab as determined by specialists. Conclusion:Dupilumab combination therapy for BP could result in rapid disease control, relieve pruritus, and reduce systemic glucocorticoid dosage, with a good safety profile.
