Objective To elucidate the impact of chronic kidney disease(CKD)on the clinical outcomes of patients with left main coronary artery disease(LMCAD)undergoing intravascular ultrasound(IVUS)-guided percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods This retrospective study enrolled consecutive patients with LMCAD who underwent IVUS-guided PCI at Wuhan Asia Heart Hospital between January 2017 and December 2020.Patients were stratified into CKD and non-CKD groups according to the presence of CKD.Clinical data were systematically retrieved from the electronic health record system.Demographic,clinical,and angiographic characteristics were compared between groups.The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiovascular events(MACE),defined as a composite of all-cause mortality,myocardial infarction,and ischemic stroke.Results A total of 325 LMCAD patients[mean age(62.56±9.86)years;73.54%male]were included,with 31 patients(9.54%)in the CKD group.During a median follow-up of 5 years,CKD patients exhibited significantly older age[(70.13±9.77)years vs.(61.77±9.54)years,P<0.001],higher prevalence of three-vessel disease(64.52%vs.38.10%;P=0.040)and left main bifurcation lesion(45.16%vs.37.76%,P=0.011),greater IVUS-detected calcification burden(P=0.029),and higher median SYNTAXⅡ scores[(34.10(30.30,39.25)vs.26.75(22.42,31.58),P<0.001)].The cumulative incidence of MACE was significantly higher in the CKD group compared to the non-CKD group(32.26%vs.9.18%,P<0.001).Univariate Cox regression analysis and Kaplan-Meier survival curves confirmed a 5.877-fold increased risk of MACE in CKD patients(95%CI 2.765-12.494).After adjusting for age and cardiac function,CKD remained an independent predictor of MACE(HR 3.611,95%CI 1.634-7.978).Conclusions LMCAD patients with concomitant CKD present with advanced age,impaired cardiac function,more extensive coronary disease,and severe calcification.The presence of CKD is associated with a significantly worse long-term prognosis.

BACKGROUND:
Disease-modifying therapies have been approved for the treatment of relapsing multiple sclerosis (RMS). The present study aims to examine the safety of teriflunomide in Chinese patients with RMS.
METHODS:
This non-randomized, multi-center, 24-week, prospective study enrolled RMS patients with variant (c.421C>A) or wild type ABCG2 who received once-daily oral teriflunomide 14 mg. The primary endpoint was the relationship between ABCG2 polymorphisms and teriflunomide exposure over 24 weeks. Safety was assessed over the 24-week treatment with teriflunomide.
RESULTS:
Eighty-two patients were assigned to variant ( n = 42) and wild type groups ( n = 40), respectively. Geometric mean and geometric standard deviation (SD) of pre-dose concentration (variant, 54.9 [38.0] μg/mL; wild type, 49.1 [32.0] μg/mL) and area under plasma concentration-time curve over a dosing interval (AUC tau ) (variant, 1731.3 [769.0] μg∙h/mL; wild type, 1564.5 [1053.0] μg∙h/mL) values at steady state were approximately similar between the two groups. Safety profile was similar and well tolerated across variant and wild type groups in terms of rates of treatment emergent adverse events (TEAE), treatment-related TEAE, grade ≥3 TEAE, and serious adverse events (AEs). No new specific safety concerns or deaths were reported in the study.
CONCLUSION:
ABCG2 polymorphisms did not affect the steady-state exposure of teriflunomide, suggesting a similar efficacy and safety profile between variant and wild type RMS patients.

Acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fracture (ASOTLF) can lead to chronic low back pain, kyphosis deformity, pulmonary dysfunction, loss of mobility, and even life-threatening complications. Vertebral augmentation is currently the mainstream treatment method for this condition. In 2019, the Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Trauma and the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedic Surgeons Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association collaboratively led the development of Clinical guideline for vertebral augmentation for acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures. Six years later, with advances in clinical diagnosis and treatment techniques as well as accumulating evidence in related fields, the 2019 guideline requires updating. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedic Surgeons Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, the Spinal Health Professional Committee of China Human Health Science and Technology Promotion Association, and the Minimally Invasive Orthopedics Professional Committee of Shaanxi Medical Doctor Association have organized experts in the field to develop the Clinical guideline for vertebral augmentation of acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures ( version 2025) , based on the latest evidence-based medical researches. This guideline incorporates 3 recommendations retained from the 2019 version with updated strength of evidence, along with 12 new recommendations. It provides recommendations from six aspects of diagnosis, pain management, treatment option selection, prevention of postoperative complications, anti-osteoporosis therapy, and postoperative rehabilitation, aiming to provide a reference for standard treatment of vertebral augmentation for ASOTLF in hospitals at all levels.
