OBJECTIVE To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of lecanemab for early Alzheimer disease （AD） from a whole-society perspective. METHODS Based on data from the Clarity AD study， a global multicenter， randomized， double-blind， placebo-controlled study of lecanemab for early AD， a Markov model was developed according to the disease progression of AD， with a monthly cycle and a time horizon extending to 99% patient mortality. Quality-adjusted life year （QALY） and incremental cost-effectiveness ratio （ICER） were used as outcome indicators， with a willingness-to-pay （WTP） threshold set at twice China’s per capita gross domestic product （GDP） for 2025 （199 330.00 yuan/QALY）. The model simulated the cost-effectiveness of lecanemab plus standard of care （SoC） versus placebo plus SoC for early AD. One-way sensitivity analysis， probabilistic sensitivity analysis， and scenario analysis were employed to test the robustness of the results. RESULTS Compared with placebo plus SoC， the ICER for lecanemab plus SoC was 4 364 711.54 yuan/QALY. One-way sensitivity analysis showed that the hazard ratio for disease progression， the price of lecanemab， body weight， the monthly progression probability of mild cognitive impairment， and the discount rate were key parameters affecting model robustness. Results of the probabilistic sensitivity analysis showed that the probability of lecanemab being cost-effective was 0 at the current WTP threshold. Scenario analysis indicated that a price reduction of at least 94.88% would be required for lecanemab to fall below the WTP threshold. CONCLUSIONS At the current WTP threshold， lecanemab plus SoC is not cost-effective compared with placebo plus SoC for early AD.

AIM To prepare the oral lyophilized tablets of gastrodin-coated micropowder.METHODS Fluidized bed bottom spray method was adopted in the preparation of coated micropowder,after which the oral lyophilized tablets were further prepared.With mannitol consumption,pullulan consumption and xanthan gum consumption as influencing factors,comprehensive score for appearance traits,moisture,disintegration time and the sedimentation volume ratio as an evaluation index,the formulation was optimized by Box-Behnken method,then the taste-masking effect,appearance traits,moisture,disintegration time,content uniformity and dissolution rate were investigated.RESULTS The optimal formulation was determined to be 44.20 mg/tablet for mannitol consumption,3.70 mg/tablet for pullulan consumption,1.30 mg/tablet for xanthan gum consumption,66.67 mg/tablet for coated micropowder,and 1.5 mg/tablet for sucralose micropowder,the comprehensive score was 17.43.The obtained oral lyophilized tablets demonstrated good taste-masking effect,appearance traits and content uniformity with the disintegration time of 3-5 s,whose dissolution rates were less than 5％within 3 min in the simulated oral environment(phosphate buffer solution at pH 6.8)and more than 85％within 15 min in the simulated gastric environment(hydrochloric acid solution at pH 1.2).CONCLUSION The oral lyophilized tablets of gastrodin-coated micropowder display good taste,ease of swallowing and simple and feasible preparation process,which can provide a new idea for the taste improvement of other oral lyophilized tablets and unpleasant-smelling raw medicines.

Objective: To understand the current situation and related factors of screening myopia among students in special education schools, so as to provide evidence for promoting the health level of this population. Methods: From November 2021 to December 2023, a total of 281 students from 6 special education schools in 5 districts of Tianjin were selected by cluster random sampling method for computer optometry visual acuity examination for non ciliary paralysis and questionnaire survey. Multiple Logistic regression was performed to analyze the influencing factors of screening myopia among special education students. Results: The screening myopia detection rate among these special education students in Tianjin was 27.0%, and the screening myopia detection rates of students with autism, developmental delays, and intellectual disabilities were 22.4%, 12.5%, and 33.0%, respectively. The degree of myopia increased with age ( χ 2 trend =22.65, P <0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that age(10-13 years old: OR =5.40, 14-17 years old: OR =8.40, 18-23 years old: OR =6.02), accommodation(non resident: OR =0.29), daily mobile phone usage ≥2 hours ( OR =2.37), and daily computer/tablet usage ≥2 hours ( OR =2.70) were the risk factors for screening myopia among special education students ( P <0.05). Conclusions The detection rate and degree of screening myopia increase with age in special education students. Prolonged screen time exposure is a primary risk factor for screening myopia in special education students. Effective myopia prevention and control strategies should be designed according to the characteristics of special education students.

Aim To explore the in vitro anti-human triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC)effect and mech-anism of Austocystin R.Methods MTT assay was used to evaluate the anti-tumor potential of Austocystin R for various human tumor cells and normal cells.Flow cytometry was employed to evaluate the influence on cell cycle progression.mRFP-GFP-LC3 adenovirus transfection was used to evaluate the autophagic flux process.Western blot assay was used to verify the effect of Austocystin R on the expression of related pro-teins.Results The results showed that Austocystin R significantly inhibited the proliferation of multiple tumor cells in a dose-dependent manner,especially for the MDA-MB-231 cells with an IC50 of 1.45μmol·L-1.In addition,Austocystin R increased the protein expression of PTEN,p53,p-p53,p27,p21,and down-regulated the expression of p-PI3K,p-AKT and p-mTOR.Austocystin R can significantly increase the proportion of S-phase MDA-MB-231 cells,inhibit the expression of Cyclin D1,CDK4,CDK6,Rb,Cyclin B1 and CDK1,and promote the expression of Cyclin E1 and CDK2.Austocystin R can promote the autophagic flux process of MDA-MB-231 cells,promote the expres-sion of LC3 Ⅰ/Ⅱ,p-Beclin-1,p-ULK1,HMGB-1 and Atg 14 proteins,and inhibit the expression of Beclin-1,ULK1,p62,ATG 3,ATG 4B,ATG 5,ATG 7,ATG 12,ATG 13 and ATG 16L1 proteins.Conclusion Austo-cystin R can exhibit its anti-TNBC activity by inhibi-ting the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway,blocking the cell cycle at the S phase and inducing autophagic cell death.

Objective:To validate the diagnostic value of soluble scavenger receptor class A (sSRA) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and evaluate the clinical utility of enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and chemiluminescence immunoassay (CLIA) for sSR-A detection.Methods:A total of 200 RA patients (including 37 seronegative RA cases), 19 osteoarthritis (OA) patients, 45 gouty arthritis (GA) patients, and 86 healthy controls (HC) were enrolled from the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology, Northern Jiangsu People′s Hospital, between July 2023 and December 2023. Serum sSR-A levels were measured using ELISA and CLIA, and clinical data were collected. Statistical analyses included t-tests, Mann-Whitney U tests, chi-square tests, Fisher′s exact tests, Kruskal-Wallis tests with Dunn′s post hoc analysis, Spearman correlation, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Results:ELISA Detection of sSR-A, RA patients exhibited significantly higher sSR-A levels [0.46(0.25, 0.78) ng/ml] than OA [0.15(0.08, 0.30) ng/ml; Z=4.11, P<0.001], GA [0.22(0.14, 0.44) ng/ml; Z=3.51, P<0.01], and HC [0.15(0.06, 0.24) ng/ml; Z=9.10, P<0.001]. ROC curve analysis revealed that sSR-A had a sensitivity of 68.00% and specificity of 89.41% for diagnosing RA, with an area under the curve (AUC)(95% CI) of 0.834 2(0.787 5, 0.880 8) ( P<0.001), and an optimal cut-off value of 0.291 7 ng/ml. The sSR-A positivity rates in RF/ACPA double-positive RA, RF/ACPA single-negative RA, and seronegative RA subgroups were 74.4% (99/133), 56.7% (17/30), and 54.1% (20/37), respectively, with all subgroups showing significantly higher sSR-A levels than HC ( P<0.001). sSR-A correlated positively with DAS28 ( r=0.60, P<0.001), ESR ( r=0.29, P<0.001), globulin ( r=0.25, P<0.001), IgM ( r=0.26, P=0.044), IgG ( r=0.39, P=0.002), IgA ( r=0.31, P=0.017), RF-IgG ( r=0.47, P<0.001), RF-IgA ( r=0.46, P<0.001), RF-IgM ( r=0.50, P <0.001), and ACPA ( r=0.26, P <0.001). sSR-A levels in high-activity [0.85 (0.65, 1.33) ng/ml], moderate-activity [0.46 (0.27, 0.68) ng/ml], and low-activity RA groups [0.24 (0.11, 0.40) ng/ml] were significantly higher than HC [0.15(0.06, 0.24) ng/ml, Z=7.08, P<0.001; Z=7.45, P<0.001; Z=2.68, P<0.001], with levels increasing with disease activity. RA patients were divided into three groups based on ESR and CRP levels including ESR +CRP + [0.54(0.26, 0.87) ng/ml], ESR/CRP - [0.53(0.25, 0.89) ng/ml], and ESR -/CRP - [0.36(0.18, 0.53) ng/ml], All three groups showed significantly higher sSR-A levels compared to the HC group [0.15(0.06, 0.24) ng/ml, Z=8.02, P<0.001; Z=7.61, P<0.001; Z=5.06, P<0.001]. Moreover, sSR-A levels were significantly positively correlated with grayscale synovitis scores ( r=0.30, P<0.001), power Doppler blood flow scores ( r=0.26, P<0.001), and total semi-quantitative ultrasound scores ( r=0.32, P<0.001), patients who were tested positive for sSR-A exhibited significantly higher grayscale synovitis, power Doppler blood flow, and total ultrasound scores compared to those who were negative for sSR-A ( Z=-2.90, P=0.004; Z=-2.37, P=0.018; Z=-3.09, P=0.002). CLIA detection of sSR-A, the RA group [6.83(3.22, 10.65) ng/ml] demonstrated significantly elevated sSR-A concentrations compared to both the OA+GA [1.99(1.27, 4.18) ng/ml] and HC groups [1.03 (0.50, 1.73) ng/ml] ( Z=4.20, P<0.001; Z=9.62, P<0.001). ROC curve analysis revealed AUC (95% CI) of 0.924 6(0.787 5, 0.880 8), with a sensitivity of 86.92% and a specificity of 93.10% for the diagnosis of RA. Conclusion:sSR-A is a reliable biomarker for diagnosing RA, particularly in seronegative patients, and is closely associated with disease activity. CLIA offers superior diagnostic performance over ELISA in detecting sSR-A in RA patients.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

Objective:To analyze the short-term efficacy and safety of robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy（RAPN）for non-metastatic pathological stage T 3a renal cell carcinoma. Methods:The clinical and pathological data of 45 patients with pathologically confirmed non-metastatic T 3a renal cell carcinoma who underwent RAPN at Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center between January 2016 and December 2023 were retrospectively reviewed. There were 30 males and 15 females. The average age of the cohort was（54.3±10.7）years，and the average clinical tumor diameter was（4.9±1.8）cm. Of all the patients，35（77.8%）were asymptomatic，7（15.6%）presented with hematuria，and 3（6.7%）presented with lumbar pain. Preoperative imaging assessed 34 patients（75.6%）as having clinical stage T 3a，all suspected of involving the collecting system or perirenal fat invasion；the remaining 11 patients（24.4%）were assessed as having stage T 1-2 disease. The median R.E.N.A.L. nephrectomy score was 8.0（7.0，10.0）. A history of hypertension，diabetes，or chronic kidney disease was present in 18 patients（40.0%）. The primary endpoint was progression-free survival，and the secondary endpoints included postoperative complications and short-term renal function outcomes. Survival curve was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method，and renal function comparisons were made using the paired t-test. Results:The RAPN was performed through a transabdominal approach in 32 patients（71.1%），with a median estimated blood loss of 150.0（50.0，300.0）ml. Seven（15.6%）patients required intraoperative blood transfusion. The median length of postoperative hospital stay was 4.0（4.0，6.0）days. Postoperative complications occurred in 6 patients（13.3%），including 5（11.1%）with mild complications and 1（2.2%）with a severe complication. Renal function returned to baseline in 24 of 39 evaluable patients（61.5%），while 3 patients（7.7%）developed surgery-related chronic kidney disease 3 to 12 months postoperatively，but none required dialysis. The median follow-up time was 31.8（22.7，50.9）months，12（26.7%）patients received programmed cell death protein 1 inhibitor adjuvant therapy postoperatively. During follow-up，3 patients experienced tumor recurrence，the 3-year progression-free survival rate of the entire cohort was 95.4%.Conclusions:For some carefully selected patients with T 3a renal cell carcinoma，RAPN performed by experienced surgeons is a feasible and safe option，providing excellent short-term oncological outcomes，complication control，and renal function recovery. The long-term efficacy remains to be seen.
