Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of recombinant staphylokinase in patients with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI)by a multi-center,randomized,position-controlled,parallel post-marketing clinical trial.Methods This study was a multi-center,randomized,positive drug parallel control,non-inferiority clinical trial.From July 2019 to June 2022,a total of 251 patients with STEMI were enrolled in 31 hospitals.Patients were randomly assigned to receive intravenous staphylokinase or alteplase in a ratio of 1∶1.Vascular recanalization was evaluated by clinical indicators 30 minutes,60 minutes and 120 minutes after the initiation of thrombolysis.Coronary angiography was performed 90 to 120 minutes after the initiation of thrombolysis.The proportion of infarct-related artery(IRA)with thrombolysis in myocardial infarction(TIMI)grade Ⅱ and Ⅲ,corrected TIMI frame count(CTFC)and TIMI myocardial perfusion grade(TMPG)were analyzed Major adverse cardiac events(MACE,including all-cause death,rehospitalization,reinfarction,urgent target vessel revascularization)and bleeding events were followed up at 30 days(±2 days)after thrombolysis.Results After excluding 7 subjects who did not use thrombolytic drugs,244 subjects were finally eligibled from 31 hospitals(117 in trial group and 127 in control group),and 232 subjects completed the follow-up(111 in trial group and 121 in control group).The vascular recanalization rate evaluated by clinical indicators at 120 minutes after thrombolysis was 85.6％ in trial group and 83.5％ in control group(P=0.657).The difference between the two groups was 2.11(95％CI-7.19-11.41).Given that the lower confidence limit of the 95％CI was greater than-12％,the non-inferiority of the vascular recanalization rate was established based on clinical judgment.Coronary angiography showed that the total patency rate of IRA(TIMIⅡ-Ⅲ)was 77.5％ in trial group and 77.7％ in control group(P=0.970).The difference between the two groups was-0.21(95％CI-10.95-10.54),with the lower bound of the 95％CI exceeding-12％.Therefore,the non-inferiority of the TIMI blood flow grade was confirmed,indicating that the total patency rate of IRA in the trial group was not inferior to that in the control group.The CTFC was(32.7±17.6)frames in trial group and(37.6±16.6)frames in control group,with no statistically significant difference between the two groups(P=0.054).The difference between the two groups was-4.9(95％CI-10.0-0.1).As the lower limit of the 95％CI exceeded-12％,the noninferiority of CTFC was successfully demonstrated.The proportions of TMPG 0-Ⅲ were 20.7％,6.3％,2.7％and 69.4％in trial group,and 22.3％,4.1％,6.6％ and 66.9％ in control group,respectively.There was no significant difference in TIMI myocardial perfusion grade between the two groups(P=0.086).The incidence of MACE was 7.7％ in trial group and 7.1％ in control group within 30 days after the initiation of thrombolysis,and there was no significant difference between the two groups(P=0.857).Further analysis showed that there was no significant difference in cardiovascular mortality(3.4％ vs.4.7％,P=0.751).All 244 subjects were included in the safety analysis set.There was no significant difference in the total incidence of bleeding events between the two groups(22.2％ vs.15.0％,P=0.144).There was no significant difference in the incidence of major bleeding(1.7％ vs.0.8％,P=0.609).Conclusions Recombinant staphylokinase is simple to use and has a rapid onset of action.The efficacy and safety of recombinant staphylokinase are not inferior to alteplase in the treatment of acute STEMI.

Adipocytic tumors are the most common type of soft tissue tumors,which can be divided into lipomas and liposarcomas.Studies have found that benign lipomas resected from the same site can transform into liposarcomas,especially atypical lipomatous tumors(ALT),suggesting an underlying biological association.In this case,the patient underwent resection of a right neck mass in our hospital in 2017,and the pathology showed fibrolipoma.One year later,the mass recurred at the original site but was not treated.By 2023,the mass had significantly enlarged and extended deeply.MRI showed that the lesion had an unclear boundary with the surrounding fat,suggesting liposarcoma.Puncture and molecular pathology showed MDM2 gene amplification,and the diagnosis of ALT was made,which was confirmed by pathology after complete surgical resection.It can be seen that adipocytic tumors have great differences in biological behavior,and benign lipomas can transform into liposarcomas(especially ALT).Clinically,it is necessary to combine imaging,pathology and molecular detection(such as MDM2/CDK4)for differentiation to formulate treatment plans.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the genetic etiology of a Chinese pedigree with recurrent Joubert syndrome with negative results by whole-exome sequencing in the prior proband. METHODS: Chinese pedigree which opted elective abortion at the Women and Children's Hospital Affiliated to Chongqing Medical University in December 2024 was selected as the study subject. Whole-genome sequencing was carried out on fetal tissue after termination of pregnancy. Candidate variants were validated by Sanger sequencing and interpreted, while non-coding variant was analyzed using in silico prediction tools. RNA sequencing and cDNA sequencing were conducted on fetal brain tissue. This study was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Hospital (Ethics No.2024YL045-02). RESULTS: Both the fetus and the affected child were found to harbor compound heterozygous variants of the CEP290 gene, namely c.7341dup (p.Leu2448fs*8) (pathogenic, maternally inherited) and c.1523-408G>A (likely pathogenic, paternally inherited). Both in silico analysis and fetal brain RNA sequencing confirmed aberrant RNA splicing caused by the intronic variant. CONCLUSION This case has highlighted the value of combining whole-genome sequencing with RNA functional validation. Above results not only enriched the spectrum of CEP290 gene mutations but also underscored its diagnostic value in resolving complex prenatal cases, providing critical clues for the prenatal diagnosis and recurrence risk assessment in genetic counseling.

Aim To investigate the therapeutic effects of a newly developed Tadalafil tablet on pulmonary fi-brosis induced by paraquat(PQ)in rats,as well as its impact on histone acetylation levels in epithelial cells.Methods SD rats were randomly divided into four groups:the control group(control),the model group(PQ),the Tadalafil new tablet treatment group(N-Tad,1 mg·kg-1),and the positive control drug treatment group(Cialis,5 mg·kg-1).The model group and treatment group rats were intraperitoneally injected with PQ(30 mg·kg-1).Two hours after the initial treatment,the rats in the treatment group re-ceived N-Tad or Cialis via gavage,while the control and model groups were administered an equal volume of physiological saline by gavage once daily for 28 days.The weight gain rate and lung tissue index for each group of rats were calculated.Additionally,the effects of N-Tad treatment on lung tissue structural damage and collagen deposition in rats with PQ-in-duced pulmonary fibrosis were observed using HE stai-ning,Masson trichrome staining,and immunohisto-chemical techniques.By employing the Western blot technique,the effects of Tadalafil intervention on the expression of the epithelial marker E-cadherin(E-Cad),the stromal marker fibronectin(Fn),and the histone acetylation marker acetylated histones(Ac-his-tones)in A549 cells were observed.Results Com-pared to the control group,rats with PQ-induced pul-monary fibrosis exhibited a significant decrease in the rate of body weight growth,an increase in lung tissue index(P＜0.05),and a notable increase in the expression and distribution of the fibrosis marker alpha-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA)in lung tissue.The structure of the lung tissue was disrupted,accompanied by the deposition of interstitial collagen fibers.Both N-Tad and Cialis treatments could significantly enhance the rate of weight gain,decrease the lung tissue index,inhibit the expression of α-SMA,and reduce the depo-sition of interstitial collagen in the lung tissue of rats with pulmonary fibrosis.Notably,low-dose N-Tad treatment was comparable to high-dose Cialis treat-ment.At the cellular level,Tadalafil significantly in-hibited the high expression of Fn induced by transfor-ming growth factor beta 1(TGF-β1)in A549 cells.It also upregulated the expression of E-cadherin and sig-nificantly increased the levels of acetylated histones(P＜0.05).Conclusions N-Tad promotes histone acetylation in alveolar epithelial cells,significantly in-hibits epithelial-mesenchymal transition,increases E-cadherin expression,and improves lung tissue structur-al damage and collagen deposition caused by PQ.Ad-ditionally,it offers the advantage of a lower effective dose compared to Cialis,providing a new option for the treatment of pulmonary fibrosis.

Objective To investigate the influence and threshold effect of preoperative intraocular pressure(IOP)on secondary glaucoma(SG)after pars plana vitrectomy(PPV).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 88 patients with retinal detachment who developed SG after PPV(SG group)treatment at Hebei Eye Hospital from January 2020 to January 2024.Meanwhile,88 patients with retinal detachment who underwent PPV at the same hospital during the same period but did not develop SG postoperatively were selected as non-SG group in a 1:1 ratio.Univariate analysis was used to compare the differences in clinical data between the two groups.A stratified regression model was applied to analyze the correlation between postoperative characteristics and preoperative IOP.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the factors affecting the occurrence of SG after PPV,with multicollinearity diagnosis and sensitivity analysis performed for the parameters.Additionally,the threshold effect of preoperative IOP on the risk of postoperative SG was analyzed.A predictive model was constructed based on the results of multivariate logistic regression.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was employed to evaluate the efficacy and accuracy of the predictive model,while the calibration curve and clinical decision curve were utilized to assess the consistency between the predictive model and actual conditions as well as the clinical practicality of the model.Results Compared with non-SG group,SG group had a higher proportion of patients with a history of diabetes,family history of glaucoma,a higher preoperative IOP,higher proportion of postoperative closed anterior chamber angle status,longer silicone oil tamponade duration(≥6 months),higher incidence of silicone oil emulsification(P<0.05).Postoperative anterior chamber angle status(closed)was significantly positively correlated with preoperative IOP levels(P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that history of diabetes,family history of glaucoma,silicone oil emulsification,postoperative anterior chamber angle closure,silicone oil tamponade duration≥6 months,and preoperative IOP≥21 mmHg were independent risk factors for SG after PPV(P<0.05).Multicollinearity diagnosis indicated no significant collinearity among the above variables.Sensitivity analysis showed that the association tended to be null when E=5.014.With the increase of preoperative IOP,the probability of SG after PPV in patients showed an upward trend.The threshold effect analysis revealed that when preoperative IOP≥19 mmHg,the probability of SG after PPV increased significantly with the elevation of preoperative IOP(OR=2.942,95%CI 1.794-4.826,P<0.001).After adjusting for covariates,preoperative IOP remained an independent influencing factor for different degrees of SG after PPV(OR=7.392,95%CI 1.379-12.510,P=0.001).Before and after validation,the area under the ROC curves(AUCs)of the model for predicting SG after PPV were 0.987(95%CI 0.974-1.000,P<0.001)and 0.989(95%CI 0.969-1.000,P<0.001),with sensitivities of 0.9332 and 0.9545,and specificities of 0.9981 and 0.9773,respectively.Both the calibration curve and decision curve analysis demonstrated that the predictive model had good discrimination and accuracy.Conclusion Preoperative IOP is an influencing factor and a sensitive indicator for the development of SG after PPV in patients with retinal detachment.
