Abnormal activation of the Janus kinase/signal transducer and activator of transcription （JAK/STAT） signaling pathway is involved in the pathogenesis of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma （DLBCL）. In recent years， inhibitors targeting JAK2 and STAT3 have emerged as promising therapeutic candidates in DLBCL. This review summarizes the efficacy and safety profiles of JAK2 inhibitors （e.g.， ruxolitinib） and STAT3 inhibitors （direct small-molecule inhibitors， the antisense oligonucleotide， and proteolysis targeting chimeras， etc.） in preclinical models and clinical trials. Accumulating evidence indicates that JAK2 and STAT3 inhibitors exhibit antitumor activity and are generally well tolerated in a subset of DLBCL patients. Meanwhile， the development of novel drug delivery systems has significantly enhanced the stability， bioavailability， and targeting ability of the compounds. Furthermore， JAK2 and STAT3 inhibitors may exhibit synergistic effects when combined with other therapy strategies （such as combinations with B-cell receptor signaling pathway inhibitors， immunomodulators， or other targeted drugs）. However， current clinical applications are still in their early stages. Future research should concentrate on precision treatment strategies based on the genetic subtyping of DLBCL， and further refine the delivery systems for inhibitors as well as combination drug regimens to improve clinical outcomes.

ObjectiveTo explore the 28-day mortality risk of Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) bloodstream infections (BSI) and its related influencing factors, thereby providing a scientific basis for the effective control of KP-BSI and improvement of patient prognosis. MethodsFrom January 2018 to December 2024, a retrospective review was conducted on hospitalized patients aged >18 years old treated for KP-BSI at a tertiary hospital in Hangzhou. Logistic and Cox regression analyses were performed to identify the epidemiological characteristics and the risk factors for the 28-day mortality associated with KP-BSI. ResultsA total of 123 patients with KP-BSI were included in this study, comprising 64 cases infected with carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) and 59 cases infected with carbapenem-susceptible Klebsiella pneumoniae (CSKP). Compared with CSKP-BSI, patients with CRKP-BSI more frequently presented with chronic pulmonary disease (χ²=4.29, P=0.038), concomitant infections at other sites (χ²=10.90, P=0.001), and a higher frequency of invasive procedures prior to infection (central venous catheterization, mechanical ventilation, and indwelling urinary catheter), as well as glucocorticoid use, hemodialysis, and blood transfusion (all P<0.05). The 28-day mortality was significantly higher in BSI cases caused by CRKP compared to that caused by CSKP (37.50% vs 5.08%, P<0.001). Cox regression analyses revealed that carbapenem resistance (HR=6.67, 95%CI: 1.48‒30.08, P=0.014) and blood transfusion (HR=3.58, 95%CI: 1.15‒11.19, P=0.028) were risk factors for the 28-day mortality in KP-BSI, while removal of central venous catheters after infection (HR=0.24, 95%CI: 0.08‒0.67, P=0.006) was associated with a reduced risk for the 28-day mortality. ConclusionCarbapenem resistance is associated with mortality outcomes in patients with KP-BSI. Strengthening infection control measures targeting the identified risk factors for CRKP-BSI may improve patient prognosis.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and short-term prognosis of postoperative acute myocardial infarction (PAMI) after cardiac surgery. Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 45 PAMI patients who underwent coronary angiography after cardiac surgery at Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University, from February 2015 to February 2025. General information, type of surgery, onset time and causes of PAMI, and in-hospital recovery condition were collected. Univariate logistic regression was used to analyze factors related to in-hospital survival. Results The patients’ age was (62.40±11.72) years, 31 cases (68.89%) were male, 21 cases (46.67%) had hypertension. Twenty-six patients (57.78%) underwent cardiac valve surgery, and 16 patients (35.56%) received coronary artery bypass grafting. The onset time of PAMI was 24 (0, 48) hours, with 38 cases (84.44%) developing within 48 hours after surgery. Twenty-eight patients (62.22%) presented with new lesions in coronary arteries/bypass grafts, and 20 patients (44.44%) were considered to have thrombus-induced PAMI. Nine patients died in hospital, 13 patients failed to recover and were discharged automatically, and 23 patients were discharged after recovery. Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that new lesion in coronary arteries/bypass grafts was risk factor for in-hospital survival (OR=0.235, P=0.036). Conclusions PAMI frequently occurs within 48 hours post-cardiac surgery, and thrombosis is the most common cause of PAMI. New lesions in coronary arteries/bypass grafts are closely correlated with poor short-term prognosis.

Objective To systematically analyze the changes in clinical indicators including blood leukocytes and neutrophils,liver and kidney functions,coagulation function,lipids,and levels of thyroid hormones and antibodies in Graves'ophthalmopathy(GO)patients who had undergone effective treatment with tocilizumab(TCZ)and to explore their clinical significance.Methods Eighty-five patients with moderately or severely active GO who were effectively treated with TCZ were enrolled.Early morning fasting blood was collected and tested for routine blood,biochemical routine,coagulation function,thyroid hormone and antibodies,and basic information such as gender,age,duration of the disease,history of smoking,comorbidities,and medications were also collected from all patients,so changes in the clinical indicators before and after the treatment could be analyzed and correlation analyses could be carried out.Results Patients with moderately to severely active GO treated with TCZ showed a significant decrease in absolute blood leukocyte and neutrophil values compared with before,and a significant decrease in liver function(alanine transaminase,aspartate aminotransferase,creatinine),cholesterol(total cholesterol,high-density lipoprotein and low-density lipoprotein)levels were significantly higher than before,and concentrations of coagulation parameters[prothrombin time,activated partial thromboplastin time,fibrinogen(FIB)and D-dimer]were significantly decreased.The concentrations of thyroid hormone and thyroid-stimulating hormone levels increased significantly,and the antibody titer of thyrotropin receptor antibody(TRAB)was significantly down-regulated after treatment.TRAB levels were significantly correlated with FIB before treatment.Conclusion Thyroid function and antibody levels improved after TCZ treatment in patients with moderately to severely active GO,but blood leukocytes,liver function and coagulation function changed significantly compared with before.The results of this study confirm the therapeutic effect of TCZ on immune disorders in GO ophthalmopathy,while underscoring the importance of monitoring potential adverse effects in clinical treatment.

Objective:To explore the association between circadian syndrome (CircS), metabolic syndrome (MetS) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) in elderly rural adults in China.Methods:From March to September 2018, totally 5 765 participants aged 60 years or older from 52 villages in Yanlou Town, Yanggu County, Shandong Province were selected. The data included demographic, underlying disease and neuropsychological data were collected by questionaire survey. Having ≥3 of the following components was defined as MetS: elevated waist circumference, high triglycerides, low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, elevated blood pressure and elevated fasting glucose. Having ≥4 of the following components was defined as CircS: short sleep (<6 h/d), depression and five other components which were used to define MetS, with elevated waist circumference as a mandatory item. MCI was diagnosed according to Petersen's criteria and further classified into amnestic MCI (aMCI) and non-amnestic MCI (naMCI) based on whether the memory domains impaired.Data were analyzed using multivariable Logistic regression and general linear regression models by R statistical software.Results:In the total sample ( n=4 898), 1 280 participants were diagnosed with MCI, of which 1 075 were aMCI and 205 were naMCI.Compared to the normal group, CircS alone was significantly associated with increased risks of MCI ( B=0.695, P=0.039) and aMCI ( B=0.782, P=0.024), as well as lower verbal fluency scores ( B=-0.244, P=0.045). No significant associations were found between MetS alone or both MetS and CircS and cognitive impairment( P>0.05). At the component level, short sleep and depression were associated with increased risks of MCI ( B=0.167, P=0.025; B=0.605, P<0.001) and aMCI ( B=0.185, P=0.020; B=0.600, P<0.001). Conclusion:Individuals with CircS are at a higher risk of cognitive impairment, CircS is more strongly associated with cognitive impairment than MetS, with short sleep duration and depressive symptoms potentially playing key roles.

Objective To explore the mechanism of Yizhu Wendan Decoction in treating eczema through GEO database combined with network pharmacology and experimental verification.Methods TCMSP,BATMAN-TCM and ETCM databases were used to screen the active components of Yizhu Wendan Decoction.Disease target information related to eczema was collected through GEO database.The drug-component-target network and PPI network were constructed by intersections of active component targets and disease targets.GO and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses were performed using DAVID database.CCK-8 method was used to screen out the optimal intervention concentration of freeze-dried powder of Yizhu Wendan Decoction.HaCaT cells were divided into control group,model group,Yizhu Wendan Decoction low concentration group,Yizhu Wendan Decoction high concentration group,si-IL-17RA group,si-IL-17RA+Yizhu Wendan Decoction low concentration group,si-IL-17RA+Yizhu Wendan Decoction high concentration group,Dexamethasone group,si-IL-17RA+Dexamethasone group.Each group was given relevant intervention.The expressions of chemokines and inflammatory factors were detected by qPCR.EdU and Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining were used to detect cell proliferation and apoptosis.Western blot was performed to detect the expressions of proteins related to apoptosis,skin barrier and IL-17 signaling pathway.Results By using databases,180 active components of Yizhu Wendan Decoction were obtained.Combined with GEO database microarrays related to eczema(GSE6012 and GSE57225),8 potential targets of Yizhu Wendan Decoction in the treatment of eczema were obtained.KEGG enrichment pathway mainly involved IL-17 signaling pathway,lipid and atherosclerotic,TNF signaling pathway,fluid shear stress and atherosclerotic,etc.When Yizhu Wendan Decoction freeze-dried powder concentration was 100 μg/mL,cell viability was the strongest.Yizhu Wendan Decoction could significantly inhibit the mRNA expressions of chemokines and inflammatory factors CCL17,CCL22,IL-1β,TNF-α,IL-6,IFN-γ,and increase the mRNA expression of IL-4 in eczema.It promoted the proliferation of HaCaT cells,increased the protein expression of Bcl-2,and reduced the protein expressions of Bad and Cleaved Caspase-3,thus inhibiting HaCaT cells apoptosis;promoted the protein expressions of FLG and LOR,and reduced the expression of MMP9,MMP1,CCL2,FOSL1,IL-17RA proteins in IL-17 signaling pathway.Conclusion Yizhu Wendan Decoction can treat eczema with multiple components,multiple pathways and multiple targets,promote the proliferation of HaCaT cells,inhibit their apoptosis,and restore the skin barrier.Its mechanism may be related to inhibiting the activation of IL-17 signaling pathway.

Objective:To investigate the incidence of osteoporosis (OP) in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients at the blood purification center in Gaochun district, and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 3 622 patients who received regular MHD treatment at Nanjing Gaochun People′s Hospital and Nanjing Gaochun Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital from January 2019 to December 2023. The demographic characteristics, comorbidities, and clinical data such as blood calcium and creatinine of patients were collected. The ultivariate Logistic regression model was applied to analyze the influencing factors of OP in MHD patients.Results:The survey revealed that 33.63% of MHD patients had decreased bone mass, and 37.24% of MHD patients experienced osteoporosis. According to the occurrence of OP, 3 622 patients were separated into the OP group (1 349 cases) and the non-OP group (2 273 cases). Univariate analysis showed that compared with the non-OP group, the albumin (ALB) level in the OP group was lower: (38.95 ± 5.17) g/L vs. (40.32 ± 5.84) g/L, there was statistical difference( P<0.05). Compared with the non-OP group, the levels of immunoreactive parathyroid hormone (iPTH) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) in the OP group were higher: (262.29 ± 36.76) ng/L vs. (249.55 ± 32.73) ng/L, (114.74 ± 18.01) U/L vs. (109.63 ± 17.25) U/L, the proportion of patients aged≥60 years old, female and dialysis duration≥5 years was higher: 61.75%(833/1 349) vs. 47.87%(1 088/2 273), 66.35%(895/1 349) vs. 54.86%(1 247/2 273), 52.34%(706/1 349) vs. 34.36%(781/2 273), there were statistical differences( P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression revealed ALB ( OR = 0.724, 95% CI 0.568 - 0.920), iPTH ( OR = 1.374, 95% CI 1.095 - 1.725), ALP ( OR = 1.325, 95% CI 1.070 - 1.641), age ( OR = 2.753, 95% CI 1.664 - 4.556), gender ( OR = 2.993, 95% CI 1.611 - 5.560), and dialysis time ( OR = 4.216, 95% CI 2.365 - 7.516) were all influencing factors for the occurrence of OP in MHD patients ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The incidence of OP in MHD patients in Gaochun district is high, and its occurrence is closely related to ALB, iPTH, ALP, age, gender and dialysis time. Clinical attention should be focused on this.

Objective To understand the molecular epidemiological characteristics and hypervirulence evolution trend of ST11 carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP)isolated from medical institutions in Shanghai,and provide scientific basis for formulating the prevention and control measures of drug-resistant organisms.Methods A total of 201 strains of CRKP isolated from 12 medical institutions in Shanghai from 2021 to 2022 were collected.Antimicrobial susceptibility testing and whole genome sequencing were performed.The concatenated data was used for multilocus sequencing typing(MLST),serum typing(wzi typing),as well as analysis of resistance and viru-lence genes.Results All 201 CRKP strains were multidrug-resistant organisms(MDROs).These strains were al-most completely resistant to carbapenems,cephalosporins,and quinolones.Drug resistance gene analysis showed that 93.03％of CRKP strains carried KPC gene.201 CRKP strains were divided into 6 ST types and 10 capsule wzi types,with ST11-KL64(n=104)being the dominant type,followed by ST15-KL19(n=54).52.24％(n=105)of CRKP carried rpmA/rpmA2+iucA+iutA+iroN genes.Conclusion CRKP isolated from medical institutions in Shanghai is mainly ST11-KL64 type with severe multidrug resistance,and more than half of the strains are hyper-virulent carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(hv-CRKP).It is necessary to continuously strengthen the monitoring of the molecular characteristics of CRKP,so as to prevent outbreaks of healthcare-associated infection.

Purpose To investigate the independent risk factors for early recurrence of solitary hepatocellular carcinoma after radiofrequency ablation based on gadoxetic acid disodium(Gd-EOB-DTPA)-enhanced MRI combined with clinical features.Materials and Methods Clinical and imaging data of hepatocellular carcinoma patients who underwent radiofrequency ablation at the First Affiliated Hospital of Henan University of Chinese Medicine from January 2019 to June 2022 were retrospectively collected.All patients underwent preoperative Gd-EOB-DTPA-enhanced MRI and were followed up for up to two years post-surgery.Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression were performed to identify independent risk factors for recurrence after radiofrequency ablation.Results A total of 58 patients were finally included,including early recurrence group(n=22)and non-early recurrence group(n=36).Multivariate Cox regression analysis revealed that preoperative alpha-fetoprotein(AFP)levels(HR=1.103,95%CI 1.008-1.206,P=0.033),arterial-phase irregular margin enhancement(HR=4.647,95%CI 1.527-14.110,P=0.007),peritumoral arterial-phase enhancement(HR=11.575,95%CI 3.575-37.478,P=0.001)and peritumoral hepatobiliary phase hypointensity(HR=5.058,95%CI 1.129-22.668,P=0.034)were independent risk factors for early recurrence.The area under the curve for AFP combined with arterial-phase irregular margin enhancement,peritumoral arterial-phase enhancement and peritumoral hepatobiliary phase hypointensity were 0.896,0.842 and 0.860,with accuracy rates of 81.0%,84.5%and 82.8%,respectively.Conclusion Preoperative serum AFP levels,arterial-phase irregular margin enhancement,peritumoral arterial-phase enhancement and peritumoral hepatobiliary phase hypointensity are independent risk factors for early recurrence after radiofrequency ablation in hepatocellular carcinoma patients.The combination of AFP and any of these MRI features significantly improves predictive efficacy.
