Background::There is a need for effective and safe therapies for psoriasis that provide sustained benefits. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of tildrakizumab, an anti-interleukin-23p19 monoclonal antibody, for treating moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis in Chinese patients.Methods::In this multi-center, double-blind, phase III trial, patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis were enrolled and randomly assigned (1:1) to receive subcutaneous tildrakizumab 100 mg or placebo at weeks 0 and 4. Patients initially assigned to placebo were switched to receive tildrakizumab at weeks 12, 16, and every 12 weeks thereafter. Patients in the tildrakizumab group continued with tildrakizumab at week 16, and every 12 weeks until week 52. The primary endpoint was the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI 75) response rate at week 12.Results::At week 12, tildrakizumab demonstrated significantly higher PASI 75 response rates (66.4% [73/110] vs. 12.7% [14/110]; difference, 51.4% [95% confidence interval (CI), 40.72, 62.13]; P <0.001) and Physician’s Global Assessment (60.9% [67/110] vs. 10.0% [11/110]; difference, 49.1% [95% CI, 38.64, 59.62]; P <0.001) compared to placebo. PASI 75 response continued to improve over time in both tildrakizumab and placebo-switching to tildrakizumab groups, reaching maximal efficacy after 28 weeks (86.8% [92/106] vs. 82.4% [89/108]) and maintained up to 52 weeks (91.3% [95/104] vs. 87.4% [90/103]). Most treatment-emergent adverse events were mild and not related to tildrakizumab. Conclusion::Tildrakizumab demonstrated durable efficacy through week 52 and was well tolerated in Chinese patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis.Trial registration::ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT05108766.

Objective:To investigate the prognostic value of infarct size (IS) in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).Methods:A total of 104 patients with acute STEMI who underwent primary PCI treatment in Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University from February 2017 to November 2018 were included in the present study. All patients underwent cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) within one week after primary PCI treatment. The subjects were followed up for two years. Major adverse cardiac events (MACE) included new onset congestive heart failure and/or recurrent nonfatal myocardial infarction and/orcardiac death. The optimal IS cutoff value for MACE was determined by receiver operating character (ROC) curve. Based on the IS cutoff value, the patients were divided into the high IS group and the low IS group. Clinical characteristics between the two groups were compared. A cox regression model was used to analyze the prognostic value of IS in acute STEMI patients treated with primary PCI for the adverse events.Results:The IS cutoff value determined by ROC curve was 13.55%. 50 patients were in the high IS group (IS≥13.55%) and 54 patients were in the low IS group (IS<13.55%). More female patients [14 cases (28.0%) vs. 6 cases (11.1%)] were in the IS group, and a higher proportion of patients in the high IS group had anterior myocardial infarction [27 cases (54.0%) vs. 16 cases (29.6%)] or microvascular obstruction [32 cases (64.0%) vs. 16 cases (29.6%)]. White blood cell counts [11.25(8.90, 13.38) ×10 9/L vs. 9.25(7.58, 11.00) ×10 9/L], troponin I levels [50.63(16.56, 76.30)μg/L vs. 16.58(2.66, 38.42)μg/L] and brain natriuretic peptide levels [178.10(79.70, 281.95)μg/L vs. 79.60(42.83, 183.90)μg/L] in the high IS group were higher than those in the low IS group ( P<0.05), and left ventricular ejection fraction [(45.15±10.65)% vs. (51.95±12.91)%] in the high IS group was lower than that in the low IS group ( P<0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analyses showed that IS was independently associated with the risk of cardiac death in patients with acute STEMI two years after primary PCI( P=0.033, HR=1.075, 95% CI1.006-1.148). Every 1% increase in IS was associated with a 7.5% increase in cardiac death. Conclusions:Infarct size, measured by CMR within one week after primary PCI, is strongly associated with cardiac death in patients with acute STEMI two years after primary PCI. IS could be used as an index for the prognosis of patients with acute STEMI.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of short-term prognostic factors in very elderly patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Methods:A total of 2 912 ACS patients admitted to Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University from January 1, 2010 to October 31, 2014 and treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were enrolled and divided into two groups according to age: very elderly group (≥75 years, 480 cases) and control group (< 75 years, 2 432 cases). The clinical data and coronary artery lesions of the included patients were detected. Major cardiovascular adverse events (MACE) occurred within 30 d after discharge were followed up and recorded. The short-term prognostic factors in very elderly patients with ACS were analyzed by Logistic regression.Results:Compared with control group, the percentage of hypertension, global registry of acute coronary events (GRACE) score, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide, the left main lesion ratio and Gensini score in very elderly group were higher, while the percentage of men, number of smoking, hyperlipidemia proportion, red blood cell count, white blood cell count, blood platelet count, albumin, and long term oral administration of aspirin, clopidogrel, statins, angiotensin receptor inhibitor after discharge were lower, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01 or<0.05). During the follow-up period, the all-cause mortality in very elderly group was higher than that in control group: 2.5%(12/480) vs. 0.9% (21/2 432), and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). Multivariate analysis showed that oral angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor was a protective factor for elderly ACS patients after discharge ( OR = 0.046, 95% CI 0.006 to 0.383, P = 0.004). The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis showed that Gensini score ≥ 87.75 scores was a threshold value for all-cause mortality. The all-cause mortality ratio in high Gensini score (≥ 87.75 scores) group was higher than that in low Gensini score (<87.75 scores) group: 6.6% (9/137) vs. 0.9% (3/343), and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). Conclusions:Very elderly patients with ACS have their own characteristics from both clinical history and prognostic factors. Patients with Gensini score of ≥ 87.75 scores should be closely observed, and drug treatment during hospitalization should be intensified if necessary. Follow-up should be strengthened for such patients, and oral drug treatment should be continued after discharge.

Objective : To investigate the prevalence and distribution of skeletal malocclusion and axial inclination of the maxillary central incisors in short root anomaly (SRA) patients in Kunming city, to provide some reference and guidance for SRA patients′ clinical diagnosis and treatment and prevention in SRA patients. Methods: A total of 1 000 cases were randomly selected from the CBCT database of patients admitted to the author′s hospital from January 2011 to July 2019, and a retrospective analysis was performed. A total of 27 patients with SRA were diagnosed (SRA group).The control group, consisted of 100 randomly selected patients from non-SRA patients. According to the clinical data and cephalometric data, skeletal malocclusion was divided into three subgroups: Class I skeletal malocclusion, Class II skeletal malocclusion and Class Ⅲ skeletal malocclusion. Additionally, the axial inclination of the central incisors was divided into three subgroups: the lingual inclination group, labial inclination group and normal inclination group. The two groups each according to sex, skeletal malocclusion and types of axial inclination of the maxillary central incisors were discussed. Results : The prevalence rate of SRA in the selected population was 2.7%, and the prevalence of SRA in females was 3.67% (21/572) , which was higher than that in males by 1.4% (6/428), and was significantly different between sexes (χ2=4.562, P=0.033). There was a significant difference between SRA patients and control group in terms of skeletal malocclusion (χ2=8.710, P=0.013). Class Ⅲ skeletal malocclusion was the main type of skeletal malocclusion in SRA. There was a significant difference between SRA patients and control group in terms of the axial inclination of the maxillary central incisors (χ2=16.75,P<0.001). Lingual inclination of the maxillary central incisors was the main type of axial inclination of the maxillary central incisors in SRA. Conclusion There is a certain correlation between class Ⅲ skeletal malocclusion and lingual inclination of the maxillary central incisors and SRA, and the root-crown ratio and root shape of these patients should be evaluated before orthodontics are implemented.

Objective:To evaluate the effectiveness and feasibility of health management based on cloud platform for population with high-risk of coronary heart disease (CHD).Methods:In this study, self-control method was used to study the high-risk group of CHD in two community outpatient clinics in Jinshui District, Zhengzhou through cloud platform. One year later, the clinical indicators, the degree of mastering CHD prevention knowledge andthe medicine compliance of the group were evaluated. Finally, the feasibility and acceptance of cloud platform management were evaluated through questionnaire survey.Results:A total of 272 people were enrolled intothe group. After one year of cloud platform management, the blood lipid, uric acid, homocysteine and fasting blood glucose in the group weresignificantly improved (all P<0.05), but the glycosylated hemoglobin was not significantly reduced [(6.4±1.2)% vs.(6.3±1.1)%, P>0.05]. The degree of mastering CHD prevention knowledgewas significantly improved, and the medicine compliance was not significantly improved [(5.0±1.6) vs. (5.0±1.5), P>0.05]. Questionnaire survey showed that 228 (83.8%) of the patients had a high acceptance of cloud platform management, and 208 (76.5%) of the group wanted to continue to use cloud platform for health management. Conclusions:Health management based on cloud platform can improve the clinical index control of the high-risk population of CHD, and help the high-risk population to master the relevant knowledge of CHD prevention. Some functions of cloud platform need to be further improved.

Objective:To explore the feasibility and safety of minimally invasive surfactant administration (MISA) in preterm neonates with respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS).Methods:In this multicenter prospective randomized controlled trial, 92 preterm infants with gestation age ≤30 weeks and diagnosed with NRDS were enrolled in 8 level Ⅲ neonatal intensive care units (NICU) in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region from 1 st July 2017 to 31 st December 2018. They were randomly assigned to minimally invasive surfactant administration (MISA) group or endotracheal intubation surfactant administration (EISA) group according to random number generated by computer. Infants in both groups received calf pulmonary surfactant preparation at a dose of 70-100 mg/kg. The data of demography, perinatal situation, medication administration, complications, clinical outcomes in the two groups were compared with Chi-square test, Student′s t-test, Mann-Whitney U test or Fisher′s exact test. Results:Among the 92 preterm infants, 53 were males, 39 were females; 47 were in the MISA group (25 males), and 45 were in the EISA group (28 males). The gestational age and birth weight were (29.5±1.2) weeks and (1 271±242) g in all patients, (29.5±1.4) weeks and (1 285±256) g in the MISA group, and (29.6±0.9) weeks and (1 255±227) g in the EISA group. The duration of surfactant infusion and the length of whole procedure in the MISA group were significantly longer than that in the EISA group (60 (18, 270) s vs. 50 (30, 60) s, Z=3.009, P=0.003; 90 (60, 300) s vs. 60 (44, 270) s, Z=3.365, P=0.001). For the outcomes, the incidence of hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus (hsPDA) and bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) were lower in the MISA group than in the EISA group (36% (17/47) vs. 67% (30/45), χ 2=8.556, P=0.003; 26% (12/47) vs. 47% (21/45), χ 2=4.464, P=0.035). Conclusions:Minimally invasive surfactant administration is applicable in preterm infants ≤30 weeks gestational age with NRDS. Although the length of whole procedure is longer than route endotracheal administration, the benefit of decreasing the incidences of hsPDA and BPD outweighs this demerit.

Yersiniosis is one of the "other infectious diarrhea" of the notifiable infectious diseases and also an important food-borne disease. However, it lacked the basis or standard for diagnosis. The Chinese Preventive Medicine Association coordinated experienced researchers from National Institute for Communicable Disease Control and Prevention, China CDC and other institutes to produce the group standard entitled "Diagnosis of Yersiniosis" (T/CPMA 005-2019). Based on the principle of "legality, scientificity, advancement, and feasibility" , the standard gives a clear definition for Yerisiniosis, stipulates diagnosis basis, principles and main differential diagnosis and provides two informative appendixes for epidemiological and clinical characteristics and a normative appendix for laboratory detection. The standard provides accurate basis and methods of Yersiniosis diagnosis for hospitals and CDCs at all levels in China. It will solve the problems that Yersiniosis cannot be clearly diagnosed for clinical cases and in the outbreaks.

Objective: To evaluate the impact of intracoronary administration of eptifibatide oncoronary no-reflow and myocardium perfusion in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) at percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Methods: A total of 80 STEMI patients with emergent PCI were randomly divided into 2 groups: Eptifibatide group, the patients received intracoronary administration of eptiifbatide and Control group, the patients received the same volume of normal saline.n=40 in each group. The baseline condition, post-operative vascular recanalization, changes of platelet aggression at pre- and post-medication were compared between 2 groups. Echocardiography was examined at immediately and 24 weeks after operation;myocardial infusion imaging was examined at l week after operation. All patients were followed-up for 24 weeks to observe the incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE). Results: Compared with Control group, Eptifibatide group showed increased ratios of post-operative TIMI grade 3 (72.5%vs 92.5%) and myocardium perfusion (70.0% vs 90.0%), bothP<0.05; decreased post-operative and 2h post-medicinal platelet aggression and they were both lower than Control group at the same period, allP<0.05. Eptiifbatide group had obviously improved LVEDD and LVEF at 24-week than 1-week after PCI and they were both superior to Control group, allP<0.05. There were 7 (17.5%) patients in Eptiifbatide group and 7 (7.5%) in Control group suffering from small bleeding events, P>0.05; no severe bleeding eventand no in-hospital thrombocytopeniaoccurred. MACE occurrence rates during 24-week follow-up period were 12.5% vs 22.5%, P>0.05. Conclusion: Intracoronary administration of eptiifbatide in STEMI patients at emergent PCI could effectively improve coronary blood lfow,increase myocardium perfusion and enhance cardiac function without severe bleeding events.
