Objective:To investigate the mechanism of the synergistic anti-leukemia effect of the combination of Bcl-2 inhibitor venetoclax(VEN)and histone deacetylase(HDAC)inhibitor chidamide(CDM)in T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia(T-ALL).Methods:The effect of VEN combined with CDM on the proliferation of T-ALL CEM and MOLT-4 cell lines was detected by CCK-8 assay.And the effects on the cell cycle and apoptosis were detected by flow cytometry.Cell cycle protein and apoptosis-related protein expression were detected by Western blot.The key pathways of VEN combined with CDM in T-ALL were screened through network pharmacology analysis,and verifying them in T-ALL cell lines,T-ALL patient cells and public databases.Results:VEN combined with CDM displayed a synergistic effect on cell proliferation of CEM and MOLT-4 cells.In cell cycle experiment,VEN combined with CDM induced G0/G1 phase arrest in CEM and MOLT-4 cells.Western blot experiment showed that VEN combined with CDM could significantly downregulate the expression of cyclin E2 and CDK2 and upregulate the expression of p21Waf1/Cip1.In the apoptosis experiment,VEN combined with CDM could significantly induce the apoptosis of CEM and MOLT-4 cells.Western blot experiment demonstrated that VEN combined with CDM promoted endogenous apoptosis by downregulating Mcl-1 and upregulating Bax and cleaved caspase-3 protein levels.Network pharmacology analysis identified 10 hub genes.KEGG enrichment analysis revealed the cell cycle,PI3K-AKT signaling pathway,and its downstream FoxO signaling pathway were significantly enriched.GO enrichment analysis revealed the G1/S transition of mitotic cell cycle,cyclin-dependent protein kinase holoenzyme complex,and kinase activity were significantly enriched.Western blot experiment showed that VEN combined with CDM could significantly downregulate the protein level of PI3K,AKT,and p-AKT,and upregulate FoxO1 in CEM and MOLT-4 cells.In T-ALL patients,FoxO1 showed significantly lower expression compared to the normal donors,and the same result was verified in the GSE13159 and GSE26713 datasets.Conclusion:The combination of VEN and CDM exerts synergistic anti-leukemia effects by inhibiting cellular proliferation,inducing G0/G1,phase arrest and promoting apoptosis through PI3K/AKT/FoxO1 axis in T-ALL.

Background: Traditionally, dental implants require a healing period of 4 to 9 months for osseointegration, with longer recovery times considered when bone grafting is needed. This retrospective study evaluates the clinical efficacy of demineralized dentin matrix (DDM) combined with recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) during dental implant placement to expedite the osseointegration period for early loading. Methods: Thirty patients (17 male, 13 female; mean age 55.0 ± 8.8 years) requiring bone grafts due to implant fixture exposure (more than four threads; ≥ 3.2 mm) were included, with a total of 96 implants placed. Implants were inserted using a two-stage protocol with DDM/rhBMP-2 grafts. Early loading was initiated at two months postoperatively in the mandible and three months in the maxilla. Clinical outcomes evaluated included primary and secondary stability (implant stability quotient values), healing period, bone width, and marginal bone level assessed via cone-beam computed tomography. Results: All implants successfully supported final prosthetics with a torque of 50Ncm, without any osseointegration failures. The average healing period was 69.6 days in the mandible and 90.5 days in the maxilla, with significantly higher secondary stability in the mandible (80.7 ± 6.7) compared to the maxilla (73.0 ± 9.2, p < 0.001). Histological analysis confirmed new bone formation and vascularization. Conclusion DDM/rhBMP-2 grafting appears to significantly reduce the healing period, enabling early loading with stable and favorable clinical outcomes.

Basket trial, as an innovative clinical trial design concept, marks the transformation of medical research from the traditional large-scale and single-disease treatment to the precise and individualized treatment. By gradually incorporating the Bayesian method during development, the trial design becomes more scientific and reasonable and increases its efficiency. The fundamental principle of the Bayesian method is the utilization of prior knowledge in conjunction with new observational data to dynamically update the posterior probability. This flexibility enhances the basket trial's capacity to effectively adapt to variations during the research process. Consequently, it enables researchers to dynamically adjust research strategies based on accumulated data and improve the predictive accuracy regarding treatment responses. In addition, the design concept of the basket trial aligns with the traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) principle of "homotherapy for heteropathy". The principle of "homotherapy for heteropathy" emphasizes that under certain conditions, different diseases may have the same treatment. Similarly, basket trials allow using a uniform trial design across multiple diseases, offering enhanced operational and significant practical value in the realm of TCM, particularly within the context of syndrome-based disease research. By introducing basket trials, the design of TCM clinical studies will be more scientific and yield higher-quality evidence. This study systematically categorized various Bayesian methods and models utilized in basket trials, evaluated their strengths and weaknesses, and identified their appropriate application contexts, so as to offer a practical guide for designing basket trials in the realm of TCM.

ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility and safety of endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography （ERCP） combined with oral cholangiopancreatography in the treatment of major duodenal papilla gallbladder polyps. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of eight patients with choledocholithiasis and gallbladder polyps who underwent ERCP and combined with oral cholangiopancreatography for major duodenal papilla cholecystectomy in Center of Digestive Endoscopy， Jilin People’s Hospital， from May 2022 to June 2024， and related data were collected， including the success rate of surgery， the technical success rate of gallbladder polyp removal， the superselective method of cystic duct， the time of operation， the time of gallbladder polyp removal， and surgical complications. ResultsBoth the success rate of surgery and the technical success rate of gallbladder polyp removal reached 100%， and of all eight patients， three patients used guide wire to enter the gallbladder under direct view， while five patients received oral cholangiopancreatography to directly enter the gallbladder. The time of operation was 51.88±12.34 minutes， and the time of gallbladder polyp removal was 23.13±10.94 minutes. The diameter of gallbladder polyp was 2‍ ‍—‍ ‍8 mm， and pathological examination showed inflammatory polyps in three patients， adenomatous polyps in one patient， and cholesterol polyps in four patients. There were no complications during or after surgery. The patients were followed up for 2‍ ‍—‍ ‍27 months after surgery， and no recurrence of gallbladder polyp was observed. ConclusionOral cholangiopancreatography is technically safe and feasible in endoscopic major duodenal papilla cholecystectomy.
