Objective To explore the risk factors for medium-and long-term mortality in patients with severe community-acquired pneumonia(SCAP)based on the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care Ⅳ(MIMIC-Ⅳ),construct a prognostic model and evaluate its predictive efficacy.Methods In this retrospective cohort study,1943 SCAP patients from the U.S.MIMIC-Ⅳdatabase(2008-2019)were randomly divided into training(n=1363)and validation(n=580)sets(7:3 ratio).Primary and secondary endpoints were 1-year and 30-/90-day all-cause mortality,respectively.Prognostic factors were selected using LASSO regression and multivariable Cox proportional hazards modeling,and a visual nomogram model was built.Model performance was assessed via C-index,receiver operator characteristic(ROC)curves,and calibration curves,and compared with the CURB-65 score.Risk stratification was validated using Kaplan-Meier analysis.Results The 30-day,90-day,and 1-year all-cause mortality rates for SCAP patients were 25.9％,34.5％,and 42.6％,respectively.Seven independent risk factors were identified:age(HR=1.037),heart rate(HR=1.007),red blood cell distribution width(RDW,HR=1.092),Acute Physiology Score Ⅲ(APS-Ⅲ,HR=1.013),cerebrovascular disease(HR=1.453),liver disease(HR=1.272),and malignancy(HR=2.007).Based on these factors,Cox regression model was constructed and nomogram was drawn,C-indices of training set and validation set were 0.710 and 0.688,respectively.For 1-year mortality prediction,the model achieved superior area under the ROC curve(AUC)values(training set:0.768;validation set:0.738)compared with CURB-65 score(training set:0.648;validation set:0.616).Kaplan-Meier survival analysis revealed significantly worse survival in high-risk group than low-risk group(P<0.0001).Conclusions Age,heart rate,RDW,APS-Ⅲ,cerebrovascular disease,liver disease,and malignant tumor were medium-and long-term mortality risk factors in SCAP patients.The prognostic model constructed based on these factors has high predictive power and provides an important clinical diagnosis and treatment reference.

As activated hepatic stellate cells (aHSCs) play a central role in fibrogenesis, they have become key target cells for anti-fibrotic treatment. Nevertheless, the therapeutic efficiency is constrained by the exosomes they secrete, which are linked to energy metabolism and continuously stimulate the activation of neighboring quiescent hepatic stellate cells (qHSCs). Herein, an intercellular communication interference strategy is designed utilizing paeoniflorin (PF) loaded and hyaluronic acid (HA) coated copper-doped ZIF-8 (PF@HA-Cu/ZIF-8, PF@HCZ) to reduce energy-related exosome secretion from aHSCs, thus preserving neighboring qHSCs in a quiescent state. Simultaneously, the released copper and zinc ions disrupt key enzymes involved in glycolysis to reduce bioenergy synthesis in aHSCs, thereby promoting the reversion of aHSCs to a quiescent state and further decreasing exosome secretion. Therefore, PF@HCZ can effectively sustain both aHSCs and qHSCs in a metabolically dormant state to ultimately alleviate liver fibrosis. The study provides an enlightening strategy for interrupting exosome-mediated intercellular communication and remodeling the energy metabolic status of HSCs with boosted antifibrogenic activity.

Objective:To investigate the effects of different BMI classifications on rehabilitation outcomes and complications after total knee arthroplasty(TKA).Methods:Clinical data of 88 patients who underwent TKA in our hospital from January 2022 to June 2024 were retrospectively analyzed.According to the World Health Organization(WHO)BMI standards,patients were divided into normal weight group(18.5 ≤BMI＜24.9 kg/m2),overweight group(25.0≤BMI＜29.9 kg/m2),mild obesity group(30.0≤BMI＜34.9 kg/m2),and severe obesity group(BMI≥35.0 kg/m2).Baseline data,operation time,intraoperative blood loss,hospital stay,postoperative knee function scores,pain scores,range of motion(ROM),and incidence of complications were compared among groups.Results:With the increase of BMI,operation time was prolonged,intraoperative blood loss increased,and hospital stay extended,with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).At 3-month and 6-month follow-ups,Knee Society Score(KSS)and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index(WOMAC)showed that functional recovery decreased with increasing BMI(P＜0.05).Regarding postoperative complications,the incidence of poor incision healing,infection,and deep vein thrombosis(DVT)in the obese groups was significantly higher than in the normal weight and overweight groups(P＜0.05).Conclusion:BMI is an important factor affecting rehabilitation outcomes and complications after TKA.Patients with high BMI have slower functional recovery and higher complication rates.For patients with high BMI,preoperative weight loss and individualized rehabilitation programs should be considered to improve TKA prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics of Mycoplasma pneumonia infection in children of different ages, and to provide a basis for precise treatment. Methods:A total of 216 children with Mycoplasma pneumonia infection who were admitted to the Xi 'an Children's Hospital from January 2019 to December 2021 were included in this study. These children consisted of 117 males and 99 females. These children were divided into school-age group (> 6 years old, n = 75), preschool group (3-6 years old, n = 72) and infant and toddler group (< 3 years old, n = 69) according to age. Data on general demographics, clinical manifestations, complications, laboratory indicators, imaging findings, and bronchoscopic results, as well as treatment efficacy and outcomes, were collected and compared among the three groups. Results:There were statistically significant differences among the school-age, preschool, and infant and toddler groups in terms of dry cough [45 (60.00%), 34 (47.22%), 18 (26.08%)], wheezing [13 (17.33%), 19 (26.39%), 41 (59.42%)], concurrent pleural effusion [26 (34.67%), 20 (27.78%), 11 (15.94%)], pulmonary necrosis [12 (16.00%), 3 (4.17%), 0 (0)], pulmonary imaging findings (patchy shadows [12 (16.00%), 22 (30.56%), 46 (66.67%)], ground-glass opacities [11 (14.67%), 18 (25.00%), 40 (57.97%)], consolidation shadows [58 (77.33%), 42 (58.33%), 8 (11.59%)]), fever duration [(9.58 ± 4.85) days, (9.48 ± 4.89) days, (6.58 ± 3.64) days], and cough relief time [9 (8,12) days, 9 (8,11) days, 8 (7,11) days] ( χ2 = 16.94, 31.10, 6.59, 15.53, 41.51, 33.40, 65.12, F = 11.97, H = 6.05, all P < 0.05). However, there were no statistically significant differences in fever, dyspnea, concurrent atelectasis, or prognosis ( χ2 = 0.21, 0.27, 0.61, 1.74, all P > 0.05). The percentage of neutrophils [(63.91 ± 10.96)%, (58.26 ± 13.79)%, (50.98 ± 13.79)%], platelet count [(305.01 ± 96.13) × 10 9/L, (324.91 ± 108.05) × 10 9/L, (342.41 ± 120.50) × 10 9/L], erythrocyte sedimentation rate [(47.07 ± 26.46) mm/h, (48.29 ± 26.33) mm/h, (38.16 ± 18.23) mm/h], creatinine [(39.10 ± 7.02) μmol/L, (31.50 ± 5.43) μmol/L, (25.85 ± 4.57) μmol/L], alanine aminotransferase [14 (11, 21) U/L, 12 (9, 20) U/L, 15 (11, 19) U/L], creatine kinase isoenzyme [17 (14, 21) U/L, 20 (16, 24) U/L, 23 (19, 27) U/L], and lactate dehydrogenase [260.0 (224.5, 343.5) U/L, 294.5 (252.0, 379.3) U/L, 317.0 (266.5, 384.5) U/L] levels in the peripheral blood differed significantly among the school-age, preschool, and infant and toddler groups ( F = 37.07, 4.91, 3.55, 167.22, H = 7.54, 57.34, 33.58, all P < 0.05). However, there were no statistically significant differences in peripheral blood white blood cell count, C-reactive protein, or procalcitonin levels ( H = 1.09, 2.49, 2.21, all P > 0.05). The bronchoscopic examinations revealed mucosal congestion and edema in all three groups ( χ2 = 0.51, P > 0.05). However, the detection of lymphoid follicles [43 (57.33%), 28 (38.89%), 18 (26.09%)], longitudinal folds [58 (77.33%), 34 (47.22%), 10 (14.49%)], mucus plugs [46 (61.33%), 32 (44.44%), 6 (8.70%)], and airway shaping [16 (21.33%), 5 (6.94%), 0 (0.00%)] increased with age, showing statistically significant differences among the three groups ( χ2 = 14.72, 56.94, 43.30, 19.58, all P < 0.05). Conclusions:The clinical characteristics of children with Mycoplasma pneumonia infection vary among children of different ages. In infants and young children, wheezing symptoms are more common, and they are prone to multiple organ dysfunction. Lung imaging primarily shows scattered patchy shadows and ground-glass opacities. In contrast, older children mainly present with dry cough, and lung imaging typically reveals large areas of consolidation. Bronchoscopic examinations reveal characteristic findings such as lymphoid follicles, longitudinal folds, mucus plugs, and airway shaping, with longer durations of fever and cough relief.

Objective:To investigate the treatment regimens, therapeutic effects, and adverse events of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) in the treatment of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML).Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on patients with PML who received ICI treatment at the Department of Neurology of Peking Union Medical College Hospital from October 2020 to September 2024. The patients′ demographic characteristics, baseline immune status, clinical manifestations, laboratory tests, treatment regimens, and clinical outcomes were analyzed.Results:A total of 2 male patients with PML, aged 40 and 59 years, received ICI treatment. One patient had underlying combined immunodeficiency, while the other had acute myeloid leukemia subtype M2 and had previously undergone umbilical cord blood stem cell transplantation. Both patients were treated with pembrolizumab (dosage range: 2-3 mg/kg, administered every 3-4 weeks), receiving a total of 2-4 courses of treatment. In terms of therapeutic effects, both patients showed significant improvement. Regarding adverse events, 1 patient experienced immune-related adverse event (irAE) of immune-related pneumonia combined with immune-related hypophysitis.Conclusions:ICI may be an effective treatment option for PML. However, the use of ICI may be accompanied by the occurrence of irAE, necessitating close monitoring during treatment.

Objective:To establish and explore a novel model and its clinical application value based on abnormal des-gamma-carboxy prothrombin (DCP) for the early-stage diagnosis of hepatitis B virus (HBV)-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:A total of 420 cases with chronic HBV infection with nodular liver lesions examined by imaging at the Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2021 to June 2024 were retrospectively selected. They were divided into the HBV-HCC group (182 cases) and the control group (238 cases) according to the current HCC diagnostic criteria. The basic information of patients, liver-related biochemical indicators, serum DCP, alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) levels, and the efficacy of combined detection in diagnosing early-stage HCC were collected and analyzed. A DSGAA model based on DCP (D) combined with gender (S), γ-glutamyl transferase (GGT, G), AFP (A) and age (A) as independent variables was constructed. The diagnostic performance of the novel model was compared with that of the traditional model through nomogram visualization output and calibration curve.Results:The age, sex, hemoglobin, albumin, alanine aminotransferase, alkaline phosphatase, and GGT levels were significantly higher in patients with HCC than those of the control group ( P<0.05). The positivity detection rate in patients with HBV-HCC was significantly higher in DCP than that of AFP (85.71% vs. 59.89%, P<0.05). The abnormal detection rate of DCP in patients with AFP-negative was 76.7%. The sensitivity for diagnosing HCC was significantly higher in DCP than AFP (73.63% vs. 64.29%, P<0.05), with specificity of 83.6% in all. The specificity for diagnosing early-stage HCC was 89.09%, surpassing that of AFP at 68.06% ( P<0.05). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) for the constructed DSGAA diagnostic model was 0.8841, with an optimal cutoff value of 0.377, a sensitivity of 80.22%, and a specificity of 86.13%. The AUC for diagnosing early-stage HCC was 0.8122, with a sensitivity of 66.18%, and a specificity of 86.13%, and the diagnostic efficacy was higher than other models ( P<0.05). Conclusion:DCP has superior diagnostic efficacy for HBV-related HCC, and the DSGAA model is expected to be used as a new method for screening and diagnosing early-stage HBV-related HCC.

Objective To improve and refine the relevant regulations and guiding principles of warnings on drug instructions and labels in China.Methods This paper sorted out the drug instructions of small molecule anti-tumor drugs listed by the U.S.Food and Drug Administration(FDA)from 2005 to 2022,included the drugs mentioned in the QT interval prolongation risk,analyzed the clinical research and QT research results,and sorted out the identification and warning rules of the instructions.Results A total of 35 drugs were included,4 drugs wrote the risk of QT interval prolongation in the black box warning,21 drugs were wrote in the warning and precautions position,6 drugs were wrote in the adverse reaction section,and 2 drugs were only described under clinical pharmacology section.According to the severity of the QT interval prolongation caused by the drug and whether there were serious clinical consequences,they were displayed in the warnings(black box warnings),precautions(warnings and precautions)and adverse reactions in the instructions.Conclusion The aim of this article is to provide a reference for the writing of QT risk warning information of the instructions of domestic drug production enterprises and regulatory departments.It is recommended to clarify the severity of drug safety and the location of the instructions in clinical research,and continue to carry out safety monitoring and update the instructions in time after listing.

Objective To analyze the changing trends of the burden of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD)in China from 1990 to 2021 and provide a basis for formulating prevention and treatment strategies.Methods The standardized incidence rate,prevalence,mortality,and disability-adjusted life year(DALY)rate of NAFLD in China from 1990 to 2021 were extracted from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021.The average annual percentage change of rate data was calculated by Joinpoint 4.2 and the age,period,and birth cohort effects of the prevalence and DALY rate were analyzed by the age-period-cohort model.Results Compared to 1990,the incidence rate and prevalence of NAFLD have been on the rise,while the mortality and DALY rate have been declining.The age effect curves of prevalence and DALY rate showed an upward trend followed by a downward trend for both males and females.With the period from 1992 to 1996 as the reference group,the period effect curve of prevalence showed a downward trend followed by an upward trend,being the lowest in the period from 2002 to 2006(RR=0.93).The period effect curve of DALY rate showed a downward trend from 1992 to 2011 and then tended to flatten out.With the period from 1972 to 1981 as the reference group,the birth cohort effect curve of prevalence showed a steady upward trend in the general population and both male and female populations.The birth cohort effect curve of DALY rate showed an overall upward trend followed by a downward trend,with the peak occurring in the birth cohort group between 1922 and 1931.The DALY rate of NAFLD caused by smoking and high fasting blood glucose has shown a downward trend since 2014,and fasting blood glucose gradually became the dominant factor as age increased.Conclusions From 1990 to 2021,NAFLD in China has shown a rising prevalence but a significantly declining DALY rate.This suggests that current prevention and control strategies are effective,and further efforts should be made to raise residents' health awareness in controlling the occurrence and development of NAFLD.
