OBJECTIVE To mine and analyze adverse event signals associated with inebilizumab， and to provide reference for safe and rational clinical use. METHODS Reports of adverse event related to inebilizumab were collected from the FDA adverse event reporting system （FAERS） database， from Q2 2020 to Q4 2024. Adverse events were standardized and categorized according to the preferred term （PT） and system organ class （SOC） of the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities （MedDRA） version 26.0. Signals were mined using the reporting odds ratio （ROR） method and the Bayesian confidence propagation neural network （BCPNN） method. RESULTS A total of 783 adverse event reports with inebilizumab as the primary suspected drug were identified， involving 297 patients. Most reports originated from the United States and Japan， with physicians being the primary reporters. Female patients outnumbered males， and the most common age group was 45-64 years. Using the ROR method and BCPNN method， a total of 29 valid adverse event signals were detected， involving 12 SOCs and comprising 225 adverse event reports. The five most frequently reported PTs were headache， nausea， fatigue， infectious pneumonia and arthralgia. The five PTs with the strongest signal intensity were： B-cell recovery， decreased blood immunoglobulin G， spinal compression fracture， COVID-19 and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Among the 29 valid signals for adverse event， 19 were not documented in the drug package inserts， involving 10 SOCs and comprising 107 adverse event reports. These encompassed nervous system disorders， general disorders and administration site conditions， eye disorders， among others. CONCLUSIONS Inebilizumab treatment not only causes adverse events documented in the product information， such as infections， immunoglobulin reduction and infusion-related reactions but also leads to potential signals， including B-cell recovery， spinal compression fracture. When using this drug in clinical practice， the patient’s risk of infection and baseline immune status should be assessed， relevant indicators should be closely monitored， and targeted preventive measures should be considered when necessary.

Objective This study aimed to investigate the correlation of cerebral perfusion and cognitive function status in patients with minor stroke(MS)or transient ischemic attack(TIA)complicated by severe intracranial arterial stenosis or occlusion(hereafter referred to as ICAS-MSTIA).Methods Retrospectively enrol consecutive ICAS-MSTIA patients admitted to the Department of Neurology,the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi'an Jiaotong University,from June 2023 to May 2024.In the meantime,healthy controls were openly recruited.The ICAS-MSTIA patients were divided into two groups based on the side of intracranial large artery stenosis or occlusion:the left intracranial large artery involvement group and the right intracranial large artery involvement group.All patients with intracranial large artery stenosis or occlusion underwent MR scanning within 2 weeks after the first episode of TIA or MS,while there was no specific time requirement for MR examination in the healthy control group.On the day of MR scanning,the Montreal cognitive assessment(MoCA)scale was used to evaluate the participants'global cognitive function and performance in various cognitive domains,including visuospatial/executive function,naming,attention,language,abstraction,delayed recall,and orientation.General information of all participants was collected,including age,sex,educational level,body mass index,and history of smoking and alcohol consumption.Clinical data were collected from both left and right intracranial large artery involvement groups,including cerebrovascular risk factors(such as,diabetes mellitus,hypertension,and hyperlipidemia),National Institutes of Health stroke scale(NIHSS)score at admission,responsible stenotic or occluded arteries(internal carotid artery,middle cerebral artery),degree of stenosis in the responsible vessel(severe stenosis[stenosis rate 70%-99%],occlusion[stenosis rate100%])and non-responsible vessel(no stenosis[0],mild stenosis[stenosis rate＞0-49%]),collateral circulation compensation(American Society of Interventional and Therapeutic Neuroradiology/Society of Interventional Radiology[ASTIN/SIR]collateral circulation classification),and responsible events(TIA,MS).General data and MoCA scale scores were compared across the three groups,while clinical data were compared between the left and right intracranial large artery involvement groups.Statistical parametric mapping 12(SPM 12)was used to perform voxel-wise independent samples t-tests on cerebral blood flow(CBF)differences among the left ICAS-MSTIA group,right ICAS-MSTIA group,and healthy control group,with cluster-level family-wise error(FWE)correction applied for adjustment.Multiple linear regression analysis was conducted to evaluate the relationship between global CBF values and total MoCA scores in ICAS-MSTIA patients with left or right intracranial large artery involvement.Results A total of 33 ICAS-MSTIA patients and 33 healthy controls were enrolled in the study.Among the ICAS-MSTIA patients,21 had left intracranial large artery involvement and 12 had right involvement.(1)Among the three groups,statistically significant differences were observed in the proportions of individuals with reported smoking history(P=0.024)and alcohol consumption history(P=0.011).The left intracranial large artery involvement group had a higher NIHSS score(0[0,2]vs.0[0,0],P=0.044)and a higher proportion of patients with internal carotid artery involvement(13/21 cases vs.2/12 cases,P=0.027)compared with the right side group.No statistically significant differences were observed in other general or clinical data across the three groups or between the two non-control groups(all P＞0.05).(2)Statistically significant differences were found across the three groups in the MoCA scale total score and scores of visuospatial/executive function,attention,language,abstraction,delayed recall,and orientation cognitive domains(all P＜0.05),while no significant difference was noted in the naming score(P=0.063).The left intracranial large artery involvement group had lower total MoCA score and lower scores in visuospatial/executive function,attention,language,abstraction,delayed recall,and orientation in comparison to the healthy control group(all P＜0.016 7).The right intracranial large artery involvement group had significantly lower scores in language,abstraction,and orientation domains than the healthy control group(all P＜0.016 7).Additionally,the left side group had a lower attention domain score than the right side group(P＜0.016 7).No other statistically significant differences were found in pairwise comparisons(all P＞0.016 7).(3)Patients in both the left and right intracranial large artery involvement groups exhibited a significant decrease in CBF in extensive regions on the affected side,including the temporal lobe,dorsolateral prefrontal cortex,and occipital lobe.Furthermore,after correction,in the left involvement group CBF was higher in the contralateral lingual gyrus,cuneus,and calcarine sulcus compared with the healthy control group(P＜0.05).While in the right involvement group,no regions had increased CBF compared to the healthy control group.(4)Multiple linear regression showed positive correlation between CBF in ipsilateral precentral gyrus and superior temporal gyrus,and the total MoCA score in patients with left intracranial large artery involvement(FWE-corrected,P＜0.05).In contrast,there was no correlation between CBF and total MoCA score in patients with right intracranial large artery involvement.Conclusions ICAS-MSTIA patients exhibited various degrees of impairment in cerebral perfusion and cognitive function.A significant positive correlation is observed between these two impairments in patients with left intracranial large artery involvement.

Objective:To translate the quality of life tool for patients with aplastic anaemia and paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria (QLQ-AA/PNH) into Chinese, and to test its reliability and validity.Methods:According to the scale translation principle, the Chinese version of QLQ-AA/PNH was formed through translation, back translation and cross-cultural adaptation. A cross-sectional survey method was used to conveniently select 58 patients with aplastic anemia who were treated in the hematology department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Dalian Medical University from January 2018 to September 2023 for investigation, and to evaluate the reliability and validity of the scale.Results:The Chinese version of QLQ-AA/PNH retains 36 items, and 5 common factors (psychological status dimension, life burden dimension, physical condition dimension, illness anxiety dimension and other symptom dimension) were extracted through exploratory factor analysis. The cumulative variance contribution rate reached 71.33%, and the factor load of each entry was greater than 0.5 on corresponding common factors. The Cronbach α coefficient of the scale as a whole was 0.971, the broken half reliability coefficient was 0.985, the Cronbach α coefficient of each common factor was 0.637 to 0.954, and the broken half reliability coefficient was 0.637 to 0.930. Conclusions:The Chinese version of QLQ-AA/PNH has been proved to be valid and reliable. It is a valuable tool for evaluating the quality of life among patients with aplastic anaemia.

Purpose To investigate the relationship between SERPINA4 expression and clinicopathological fea-tures and prognosis in metastatic colorectal cancer(CRC).Methods EnVision two-step immunohistochemical method was used to detect the expression of SERPINA4 protein in 104 cases of primary and metastatic tumor paraffin tissues of metastatic colorectal cancer and adjacent intestinal normal mucosa,and its relationship with clinicopathological features of patients was analyzed.qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of SERPINA4 mRNA in 11 pairs of metastatic CRC metastases and paired primary tumor paraffin-embedded tissue samples.The survival of patients was followed up,and the relationship between SERPINA4 expression and patient prognosis was analyzed by Kaplan-Meier method.Re-sults Immunohistochemical results showed that the strong positive expression rate of SERPINA4 was 97.10％in nor-mal mucosa,71.20％in primary lesions,and 39.40％in metastatic lesions.The difference between the three groups was statistically significant(P＜0.001).qRT-PCR results showed that SERPINA4 mRNA was lowly expressed in me-tastatic lesions of metastatic CRC(P＜0.05).The expression of SERPINA4 in metastatic lesions was significantly cor-related with histological grade,N stage and M stage of the tumor(P＜0.05),but not significantly correlated with age,gender,tumor location and T stage of patients(P＞0.05).The survival time of patients with metastatic colorectal cancer with high expression of SERPINA4 was longer than that of patients with low expression.Conclusion The ex-pression of SERPINA4 is of great significance in the survival and prognosis of patients with metastatic CRC.

Purpose To investigate the correlation between tumor budding in penile squamous cell carcinoma(SCC)and its clinicopathological features.Methods Clinical data and pathological slides from 69 cases of penile SCC were collected.Tumor budding was examined microscopically,and statistical analyses were performed to assess the relationship between tumor budding and various clinicopathological features.Results Among the 69 cases of pe-nile SCC,41 cases exhibited low-grade tumor budding and 28 cases displayed high-grade tumor budding.Tumor bud-ding was significantly correlated with tumor size,urethral invasion,invasion of the urethral corpus spongiosum,inva-sion of the penile corpus cavernosum,tumor necrosis,nerve invasion,vascular tumor thrombus,and pathological T stage(all P＜0.05).In contrast,no significant association was found between tumor budding and HPV-related versus non-HPV-related penile SCC(P＞0.05).Log-rank survival analysis indicated that patients with high-grade tumor bud-ding had a significantly lower survival rate compared to those with low-grade tumor budding(P＜0.05).Conclusion Tumor budding is a distinct pathological feature of penile SCC,and high-grade tumor budding is associated with a more aggressive biological behavior.

Objective On the basis of the"dual improvement and dual enhancement"of medical services,analyze the results of the patient satisfaction evaluation questionnaire survey report,in order to provide suggestions and reference value for hospital satisfaction management work,improve patient satisfaction in hospitals,and enhance the medical experience.Methods Analyze the hospital management situation based on the results of 460 reports from a satisfaction questionnaire survey conducted in the third quarter of 2024 at a certain hospital.Results The overall satisfaction score of patients in the third quarter of 2024 was 92.26 points;Patients have higher satisfaction with the convenient process and doctors,but lower satisfaction with the envi-ronment and medical technology;Patients have higher satisfaction with nursing and doctors,but lower satisfaction with the envi-ronment and cafeteria.The main problems in hospitals are outpatient medical technology services,inpatient environment,and doctor-patient communication.0.77% of patients believe that hospitals need to strengthen convenient facilities,and 8.46% of patients believe that environmental sanitation needs to be strengthened.Conclusion Hospitals need to further improve the pa-tient's medical environment,optimize the examination process,shorten the waiting time for examinations,enhance the quality of medical technology,improve the quality of medical services,strengthen the notification of precautions,and promote harmonious doctor-patient relationships,in order to comprehensively achieve the"dual improvement"plan,improve patient satisfaction,and enhance the medical experience.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effects of a combined pelvic floor rehabilitation magneto-electric therapy approach in women with postpartum pelvic floor dysfunction(PFD).Method:Sixty patients with PFD were randomly divided into three groups:an electrical stimulation group,a magnetic stimulation group,and a combined group,with 20 patients in each group.The evaluation indexes were pelvic floor surface electromyography(sEMG)Glazer assessment,four-dimensional ultrasound of the pel-vic floor,MOS rating,PFDI-20,and PISQ-12 scores.All indexes were evaluated at baseline and after 6 weeks of treatment.Result:After 6 weeks of treatment,the pelvic floor sEMG Glazer assessment,MOS ratings,PISQ-12,PFDI-20 scores,and pelvic floor four-dimensional ultrasound indexes of the patients in all three groups were im-proved compared with those of the pre-treatment period(P＜0.05).Compared with the electrical stimulation group,the combined group showed superior improvement for pelvic floor sEMG Glazer assessment(except for rapid contraction maxima),PFDI-20 scores,and pelvic floor four-dimensional ultrasound(except for area of levator hiatus)(P＜0.05).Compared to the magnetic stimulation group,the combined group showed superior improvement in pelvic floor sEMG Glazer assessment,MOS ratings,PISQ-12 scores,PFDI-20 scores,blad-der neck mobility,and area of levator hiatus(P＜0.05).None of the differences were statistically significant in the electrical stimulation group compared to the magnetic stimulation group(P＞0.05).Conclusion:Magneto-electricity therapy can significantly improve the pelvic floor structure and function of pa-tients with postpartum pelvic floor dysfunction and improve the quality of life,making it worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective:To investigate the effect of altitude on the risk of pre-eclampsia (PE).Methods:This cross-sectional study included 19 246 pregnant women who delivered in Gansu Provincial Hospital from January 2016 to December 2020. General clinical data, pregnancy outcomes and neonatal outcomes were collected. The diagnosis of PE was based on the disease diagnosis coding of medical record information system and the Chinese guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of hypertensive disorders in pregnancy (2020). According to the altitude of residence, the subjects were divided into low altitude group (9 931 cases), middle altitude group (9 068 cases) and high altitude group (247 cases). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to evaluate the relationship between altitude and the risk of PE, after adjusting for confounding factors such as age, ethnicity, mode of conception, gestational diabetes mellitus, and hemoglobin level.Results:(1) Among the 19 246 pregnant women, 752 (3.91%, 752/19 246) were diagnosed with PE. The incidence of PE in the low altitude group, middle altitude group and high altitude group was 2.95% (293/9 931), 4.91% (445/9 068) and 5.67% (14/247), respectively. With the increase of living altitude, the incidence of PE increased significantly ( P<0.001). (2) The results of univariate logistic analysis showed that compared with the low altitude area, the risk of PE in pregnant women living in the middle altitude area and high altitude area increased by 70% ( OR=1.70, 95% CI: 1.46-1.97; P<0.001) and 98% ( OR=1.98, 95% CI: 1.14-3.43; P=0.016). (3) The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after fully adjusting for confounding factors, the risk of PE increased by 40% for every 500 meters of elevation ( OR=1.40, 95% CI: 1.25-1.57; P<0.001). Compared with those living in low altitude areas, the risk of PE in pregnant women living in middle altitude and high altitude areas increased by 72% ( OR=1.72, 95% CI: 1.47-2.00; P<0.001) and 100% ( OR=2.00, 95% CI: 1.07-3.74; P=0.030). Conclusion:In the high-altitude environment of Gansu Province, the risk of PE gradually increases with the increase of altitude.

Objective:To evaluate potentially inappropriate medication (PIM) in hospitalized elderly patients with bacterial pneumonia, and explore its influencing factors.Methods:It was a single-center cross-sectional study. The study focused on elderly patients with bacterial pneumonia who were admitted to Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2018 to November 2022. Patients′ gender, age, weight, length of hospital stay, diagnosis at admission, physical examination, diagnosis at discharge, comorbidities, medications, and laboratory test results were extracted from hospital information system and electronic medical records. Medication use of patients included in the analysis during their hospitalization were evaluated according to the classification of PIMs in the 5 lists of the Beer′s criteria of American Geriatrics Society. Based on whether PIM occurred, the patients were divided into with PIM group and without PIM group. The clinical features between the 2 groups were compared and the influencing factors of PIM were analyzed using multivariable logistic regression.Results:A total of 2 720 patients were included, in which 1 734 (63.75%) were male. The median age was 78 (70, 85) years and their ages ranged from 65 to 103 years. The number of drugs used per patient was 14 (10, 18) kinds, ranging from 1 to 57 kinds. The length of hospital stay was 12 (9, 17) days, ranging from 1 to 162 days. Charlson comorbidity index (CCI) was 6 (5, 8) points. Among the 2 720 patients, 1 894 (69.63%) experienced PIM, with a total of 6 166 cases of PIM. The top 3 drugs ranked by the number of PIM occurrence were antiplatelet agents (1 357 cases), benzodiazapine receptor agonists (956 cases), and antipsychotics (884 cases). The comparison of clinical characteristics between the 2 groups showed that differences in age, CCI, length of hospital stay, and number of medications between with PIM and without PIM patients were statistically significant (all P<0.001). Multivariable logistic regression results showed that CCI, length of hospital stay, and number of medications were independent influencing factors for PIM. The risk increased by 8% and 1% with one point increase in CCI and one day extension in length of hospital stay [odds ratio ( OR)=1.08, 95% confidence interval ( CI): 1.04-1.13, P<0.001; OR=1.01, 95% CI: 1.00-1.03, P=0.03]. PIM risk of patients with more than 15 concurrent medications had a 22.16 times higher PIM risk than those with less than 5 concurrent medications ( OR=22.16, 95% CI: 14.15-34.72, P<0.001). Conclusions:Hospitalized eldery patients with bacterial pneumonia who have more severe comorbidities, longer hospital stay, and multiple concomitant medications are at a higher risk of PIM occurrence. Rational medication use among these patients should be paid attention to in clinical practice.
