Background::A phase II trial on recombinant human tenecteplase tissue-type plasminogen activator (rhTNK-tPA) has previously shown its preliminary efficacy in ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients. This study was designed as a pivotal postmarketing trial to compare its efficacy and safety with rrecombinant human tissue-type plasminogen activator alteplase (rt-PA) in Chinese patients with STEMI.Methods::In this multicenter, randomized, open-label, non-inferiority trial, patients with acute STEMI were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive an intravenous bolus of 16 mg rhTNK-tPA or an intravenous bolus of 8 mg rt-PA followed by an infusion of 42 mg in 90 min. The primary endpoint was recanalization defined by thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow grade 2 or 3. The secondary endpoint was clinically justified recanalization. Other endpoints included 30-day major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) and safety endpoints.Results::From July 2016 to September 2019, 767 eligible patients were randomly assigned to receive rhTNK-tPA ( n = 384) or rt-PA ( n = 383). Among them, 369 patients had coronary angiography data on TIMI flow, and 711 patients had data on clinically justified recanalization. Both used a –15% difference as the non-inferiority efficacy margin. In comparison to rt-PA, both the proportion of patients with TIMI grade 2 or 3 flow (78.3% [148/189] vs. 81.7% [147/180]; differences: –3.4%; 95% confidence interval [CI]: –11.5%, 4.8%) and clinically justified recanalization (85.4% [305/357] vs. 85.9% [304/354]; difference: –0.5%; 95% CI: –5.6%, 4.7%) in the rhTNK-tPA group were non-inferior. The occurrence of 30-day MACCEs (10.2% [39/384] vs. 11.0% [42/383]; hazard ratio: 0.96; 95% CI: 0.61, 1.50) did not differ significantly between groups. No safety outcomes significantly differed between groups. Conclusion::rhTNK-tPA was non-inferior to rt-PA in the effect of improving recanalization of the infarct-related artery, a validated surrogate of clinical outcomes, among Chinese patients with acute STEMI.Trial registration::www.ClinicalTrials.gov (No. NCT02835534).

Objective:To investigate the influence of maternal autoimmune diseases and anticoagulants, including low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) and aspirin, on the fetal fraction of maternal plasma cell-free DNA of non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT).Methods:A prospective cohort study was conducted on women with singleton pregnancies receiving NIPT in the Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital from March 2021 to July 2022. NIPT was carried out using a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-free amplification platform. In this study, four types of maternal autoimmune diseases, which were antiphospholipid syndrome, undifferentiated connective tissue disease, Sj?gren's syndrome, and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), and two anticoagulants, LMWH and aspirin, were studied. Univariate and multivariate linear regression models were used to analyze the factors influencing fetal fraction of maternal plasma cell-free DNA.Results:A total of 4 102 singleton pregnant women were enrolled in the prospective cohort, and 3 948 were finally included after excluding the cases with unclear dosing time of LMWH or aspirin, other autoimmune diseases, conceiving through ovulation induction alone, and having true positive or failed NIPT result. There were 96 cases with antiphospholipid syndrome, 35 with undifferentiated connective tissue disease, 34 with Sj?gren's syndrome, and 18 with SLE. A total of 108 patients only received LMWH treatment, 121 only received aspirin treatment, and 113 received both LMWH and aspirin treatment. Univariate linear regression analysis showed that maternal body mass index at blood collection ( B=-0.423), conceived by assisted reproductive technology ( B=-0.803), male fetus ( B=-0.458), undifferentiated connective tissue disease ( B=1.774), and SLE ( B=3.467) had influence on the fetal fraction (all P<0.05). Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that maternal body mass index at blood collection ( B=-0.415), conceived by assisted reproductive technology ( B=-0.585), male fetus ( B=-0.322), SLE ( B=3.347) and undifferentiated connective tissue disease ( B=1.336) were factors influencing fetal fraction (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Maternal use of LMWH or aspirin does not affect fetal fraction when performing NIPT on a PCR-free amplification platform, but undifferentiated connective tissue disease and SLE are the influencing factors. Therefore, pregnant women should be informed before the NIPT that the fetal fraction of maternal plasma cell-free DNA may be affected by maternal autoimmune diseases.

OBJECTIVE To study the anti-inflammatory immune response effects of lactoferrin in the treatment of periodontitis and its mechanism. METHODS One hundred SD rats were randomly divided into blank control group, model group, lactoferrin administration group low, medium, high dose group(1, 2, 3 g·kg-1), metronidazole positive control group (0.02 g·kg-1), PDTC group(200 mg·kg-1), lactoferrin+PDTC group(2 g·kg-1, 200 mg·kg-1), MCC950 group(1 mg·kg-1) and lactoferrin+MCC950 group(2 g·kg-1, 1 mg·kg-1), 10 rats in each group. Silk thread ligation combined with 10% sucrose drinking water was used to establish the model, and then the drug was administered orally once a day. The blank control group and the model group were administered orally with 0.9% NaCl. The rats in each group were sacrificed after one month of continuous administration. The contents of IL-1b, IL-8 and IL-10 were detected by ELISA kit, and the expressions of TLR2-NF-κB pathway and NLRP3 inflammasome related proteins were detected by Western blotting. HE staining was used to observe the pathological changes of the periodontal tissues of the rats in each group. RESULTS Compared with the model group, the symptoms of periodontitis in each dose group of lactoferrin were significantly improved. HE staining showed that the infiltration of inflammatory cells was reduced, and the proliferation of fibroblasts was active. The protein expressions of TLR2, NF-κB, NLRP3, Caspase-1 p20 and GSDMD-N decreased, the content of pro-inflammatory factor IL-8 and IL-1b decreased, and the content of anti-inflammatory factor IL-10 increased. CONCLUSION Lactoferrin may play a role in the regulation of inflammatory immune response in the treatment of periodontitis by down-regulating the protein expression of TLR2-NF-κB-NLRP3 pathway, reducing the initiation of inflammatory response and the release of inflammatory factors, so as to achieve the purpose of anti-inflammatory.

Objective:To analyze the trends and related factors of HIV self-testing willingness in young students in Zhejiang Province, and provide evidence for the development of AIDS prevention and control measures in young students.Methods:From 2017 to 2021, HIV/AIDS sentinel surveillance was carried out in students of colleges and universities in all 11 cities of Zhejiang Province. One university or vocational and technical college in each city was selected as a sentinel school. An anonymous questionnaire survey was conducted among 800 students aged ≥16 years and selected by phased cluster sampling in each university or college from April to June in each year to collect information about their social demographic characteristics, sexual behavior, HIV prevention and test services acceptance. The HIV self-testing willingness and the influencing factors were analyzed.Results:A total of 45 483 students were surveyed from 2017 to 2021, and the proportions of those with willingness of HIV self-testing were 0.4% (35/9 107), 3.7% (334/9 150), 5.2% (475/9 203), 6.3% (563/8 962)and 7.4% (674/9 061) respectively (trend χ2=582.74, P< 0.001). Among young students who had sexual contact history, the multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that factors related with higher willingness of HIV self-testing included those majoring in medicine ( OR=1.57, 95% CI:1.06-2.33), seeking sexual partners through internet or social-dating application ( OR=1.96, 95% CI:1.33-2.89), receiving HIV prevention services in the last year ( OR=1.33, 95% CI:1.02-1.74), and being heard of vending machines selling HIV test kits ( OR=1.80, 95% CI:1.34-2.41). The factors related with lower willingness of HIV self-testing inclued those who had multiple heterosexual partners ( OR=0.57, 95% CI: 0.36-0.89). Conclusions:The willingness of HIV self-testing in young students increased in Zhejiang during 2017-2021, the young students who had sex were more willing to self-test among them but the level was still low. It is necessary to further strengthen the health education of HIV/AIDS prevention and control and provide better testing services to promote HIV self-testing.
