In recent decades, the global community has encountered several significant viral outbreaks, including the Ebola epidemic in West Africa, the Zika virus epidemic in South America, and the recent worldwide COVID-19 pandemic. In these instances, the deployment of effective vaccines has been instrumental in protecting public health. Nevertheless, as new challenges emerge in the prevention and management of infectious diseases, the traditional model of global vaccine development confronts both unprecedented opportunities and challenges. These circumstances underscore the limitations inherent in conventional vaccine development, particularly the protracted timelines and substantial costs involved. This article examines innovative approaches in contemporary vaccine clinical trials, investigates randomization techniques specific to vaccine studies, and delineates essential statistical considerations pertinent to vaccine trial design. The objective is to provide scientific support for vaccine development and to foster ongoing innovation and optimization within the realm of vaccine research and development.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic performance of resting echocardiography in detecting severe coronary artery stenosis.Methods:A total of 136 patients with suspected coronary artery disease(CAD)who presented to Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital between January 2021 and December 2024 were prospectively enrolled. All patients underwent both coronary computed tomography angiography(CCTA)and transthoracic echocardiography within one week. Based on CCTA results,the patients were divided into non-severe stenosis group( n=78)and severe stenosis group( n=58). Echocardiographic parameters including left atrial maximum volume(LAVmax),left ventricular global longitudinal strain(GLS),left ventricular longitudinal strain of endo-myocardium,mid-myocardium,epi-myocardium(LSendo,LSmid,LSepi),early diastolic mitral inflow velocity(E),early diastolic mitral annular velocity of the lateral and septal walls(e'),and E/e' were measured. Predictive factors for severe coronary stenosis were identified using LASSO regression,and a nomogram model was developed via multivariate Logistic regression. Model performance was evaluated using ROC curves,calibration curves,and decision curve analysis. Results:Multivariate Logistic regression analysis revealed LSendo,LAVmax,and E/e' as independent predictors of severe coronary artery stenosis. The nomogram constructed based on these predictors achieved an area under the curve of 0.798(95% CI=0.723-0.873),with sensitivity and specificity of 0.756 and 0.759,respectively. Conclusions:The resting echocardiography-based nomogram model demonstrates good diagnostic efficacy for severe coronary artery stenosis. It may serve as a noninvasive tool to assist in risk stratification and clinical decision-making in patients with suspected CAD.
5.Advances in BCMA-CAR-T therapy of multiple myeloma and management after relapse
The Journal of Practical Medicine 2025;41(7):929-935
Multiple myeloma(MM)is a prevalent hematological malignancy.Despite the availability of various therapeutic agents,disease relapse remains inevitable.In recent years,B cell maturation antigen(BCMA)-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T(CAR-T)cell therapy has demonstrated remarkable success in treating relapsed/refractory(R/R)MM,offering new hope for RRMM patients.Currently,four types of BCMA-CAR-T products are available on the global market,and their application in RRMM is becoming increasingly widespread.However,RRMM patients who receive BCMA-CAR-T treatment still exhibit a high relapse rate.Research on maintenance therapy following BCMA-CAR-T treatment is currently limited,and multiple strategies exist for managing post-relapse RRMM after BCMA-CAR-T therapy.

Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2025;32(2):234-238
Objective:To analyze the risk factors for dysphagia in older adult patients with Parkinson's disease.Methods:The clinical data of 100 older adult patients with Parkinson's disease admitted to Zhejiang Xin'an International Hospital between January 2022 and December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into two groups based on the presence of dysphagia: an occurrence group ( n = 40) and a non-occurrence group ( n = 60). General data and clinical characteristics of both groups were compared. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the risk factors associated with the occurrence of dysphagia in older adult patients with Parkinson's disease. Results:In the cohort of 100 patients, the percentages of those aged 70 years and above, those with a Parkinson's disease H-Y classification greater than 3, those with an Eating Assessment Tool-10 (EAT-10) score of 3 or higher, and the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) score in the occurrence group were 75.00% (30/40), 75.00% (30/40), 80.00% (32/40), and (17.23 ± 1.02), respectively. These measurements were higher than those in the non-occurrence group [16.67% (28/60), 43.33% (26/60), 33.33% (20/60), (13.23 ± 0.48), χ2 = 7.91, 9.77, 20.94, t = 22.44, P < 0.05]. The level of uric acid in the occurrence group was significantly lower than that in the non-occurrence group [(345.63 ± 11.35) μmol/L vs. (375.62 ± 10.24) μmol/L, t = 12.41, P < 0.05]. The results of the multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that age of 70 years and older, H-Y classification greater than 3, Eating Assessment Tool-10 score of 3 or higher, Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale score, and uric acid level were relevant risk factors for dysphagia in older adult patients with Parkinson's disease ( OR = 3.44, 3.82, 3.86, 3.60, 3.71, all P < 0.05). Conclusions:Age of 70 years and older, H-Y classification greater than 3, Eating Assessment Tool-10 score of 3 or higher, Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale score, and uric acid level are relevant risk factors for dysphagia in older adult patients with Parkinson's disease.
