OBJECTIVE To analyze the selection and rationales of comparators for pharmaceutical enterprises in their medical insurance access application， so as to provide a reference for promoting communication and consensus between enterprises and medical insurance authorities in this process. METHODS The application materials for drugs outside the catalogue that passed formal review published by the National Healthcare Security Administration from 2021 to 2025 were extracted， and then content analysis was used to systematically sort out relevant information of the declared drugs and comparators； the specific situations and rationales of pharmaceutical enterprises’ selection of comparators were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 1 341 declared drug documents were collected. Data analysis showed that 1 035 （77.18%） were submitted with positive comparators and 306 （22.82%） used blank comparators； 58 drugs （4.33%） took combination therapy as the reference， and 5 drugs （0.37%） referred to non-pharmacological （or non-single pharmacological） treatment regimens. Among competitive drugs declared by multiple enterprises， 50.00% of the enterprises submitted different comparators. A total of 4 basic conditions and 39 additional conditions were extracted as the rationales for selecting positive comparators. For blank comparators， 12 drug-related factors， 2 administrative factors， and 1 other factor were identified. More than 10% of the drugs did not state the rationale for comparator selection， and over 44% of drugs using blank comparators provided only one justification. CONCLUSIONS Pharmaceutical enterprises mainly select comparators based on their own interests in the medical insurance access application， and there are deficiencies in the adequacy and standardization of their selection basis and reasoning. It is recommended that enterprises follow the principled requirements of medical insurance authorities， and fully and normatively explain the reasons for selecting comparators in combination with the characteristics of their own products. Meanwhile， it is advisable to change the current open-ended statement form of selection reasons into a closed-ended answering mode， so as to highlight the priority of selection， standardize the declaration behavior of enterprises， and reduce communication divergences between the two parties.

Objective:To construct a prognostic model for ovarian cancer based on programmed cell death receptor-1(PD-1)and B lymphocyte infiltration.Methods:A total of 102 patients with ovarian cancer admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Gannan Medical College from February 2019 to February 2022 were selected.PD-1 expression and CD20+B cell infiltration degree in cancer tissues were detected,relationship between them and pathological characteristics were analyzed,and correlation between PD-1 expres-sion with B lymphocyte infiltration degree and survival rate of patients were analyzed.Independent influencing factors of poor prognosis of ovarian cancer patients were analyzed,prediction model was built and validated according to independent factors.Results:PD-1 expression and CD20+B cell infiltration degree were closely related to tumor size,FIGO stage,tumor differentiation and lymph node metastasis(P<0.05).PD-1 expression was negatively correlated with B-lymphocyte infiltration degree(P<0.05).Patients with high PD-1 expression and low B-lymphocyte infiltration had higher mortality(P<0.05).FIGO stage,lymph node metastasis,PD-1 expres-sion and CD20+B cell infiltration were independent factors affecting poor prognosis of ovarian cancer patients.Prediction model was constructed by independent influencing factors,which had good differentiation and accuracy.Conclusion:PD-1 expression is closely related to CD20+B cell infiltration degree.There is a close relationship between PD-1 and CD20+B cell infiltration with clinico-pathological characteristics and prognosis of ovarian cancer patients,which are independent influencing factors for poor prognosis of ovarian cancer patients.

Objective To explore the longitudinal changes of symptoms after discharge in patients with daytime lung cancer surgery by factor analysis,in order to strengthen nursing countermeasures and improve the quality of life of patients.Methods Patients who underwent day surgery in the thoracic surgery department of a tertiary general hospital in Zhejiang Province from October 2023 to January 2024 were selected using convenience sampling.On the 1st,3rd,14th and 30th day after discharge,the general information questionnaire and the postoperative symptom inventory for patients with lung cancer were used for investigation.Exploratory factor analysis was performed to extract the symptom clusters.Results A total of 227 patients were followed up in this study,including 19 shed cases and 2 excluded cases,and 206 patients were finally included.The percentage of the 9 major symptoms of patients with daytime lung cancer surgery after discharge showed dynamic changes.The highest percentage symptom on the 1st day after discharge was pain in 197 cases(95.63％).The highest percentage on the 30th day after discharge was cough in 129 cases(62.62％).The results of exploratory factor analysis were P＜0.001 and KMO＞0.500 for Bartlett's test of sphericity on days 1,3,and 14 after discharge,except for P=0.874 and KMO=0.495 on day 30,with digestive and respiratory symptom clusters on day 1;respiratory,digestive,and fatigue symptom clusters on day 3;fatigue and respiratory symptom clusters on day 14.Conclusion The single symptom and symptom clusters of patients with daytime lung cancer surgery after discharge showed dynamic changes at different time points.Therefore,in clinical work,targeted intervention strategies should be adopted,and precise symptom management should be implemented according to the characteristics of symptom clusters in different periods of discharge of patients undergoing daytime lung cancer surgery,so as to reduce the symptom burden of patients.

The incidence rate of metabolic associated fatty liver disease(MAFLD)is gradually increasing,and it has become a common chronic liver disease globally.MAFLD is closely associated with metabolic dysfunction,with dietary and exercise interventions as the primary treatment method,among which dietary control is of particular importance.This article summarizes related articles on the prevention and treatment of MAFLD through different fasting patterns in recent years,and the analysis showed that by restricting food intake and controlling calorie consumption,fasting therapy can help to reduce body weight and improve metabolic disorders.Further studies and clinical practice are needed to explore and validate the value of different fasting patterns in the prevention and treatment of MAFLD.

Objective To explore the value of amide proton transfer(APT)imaging combined with diffusion weighted imaging(DWI)in the assessment of neurovascular invasion(NVI)of stage T3/T4 rectal cancer.Methods The clinical and MR imaging data of 46 patients with rectal cancer were analyzed retrospectively and divided into NVI positive group and NVI negative group according to the pathological results of NVI.The differences of APT values[maximum APT(APTmax)value,minimum APT(APTmin)value,mean APT(APTmean)value]and apparent diffusion coefficient(ADC)value between the two groups were compared,and the diagnostic efficiency was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results The APTmax and APTmean values in the NVI positive group were significantly higher than those in the NVI negative group,while the ADC value in the NVI positive group was significantly lower than that in the NVI negative group(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of APTmax,APTmean and ADC values for NVI identification were 0.717,0.722 and 0.751,respectively.The AUC of the three indexes combined to identify NVI was 0.858.The combined AUC of the three indexes was larger than that of APTmax,APTmean and ADC alone(P＜0.05).Conclusion APT imaging combined with DWI has a high value in the evaluation of NVI of stage T3/T4 rectal cancer,which can provide guidance for clinical treatment.

Objective To investigate the decolorization performance and key influencing factors of a novel low temperature plasma(LTP)on crystal violet(CV)simulated wastewater.Methods In this experiment,CV was used as the target pollutant and treated with LTP generated by argon atmospheric pressure plasma jet;the absorbance(A590)and chemical oxygen demand(COD)of CV solution were systematically evaluated before and after LTP treatment by adjusting the treatment volume,initial pH value,NaCl concentration,addition of Fe 2+and other parameters.The dynamic changes of active particles in the liquid were monitored.Results Compared with those of the control group,the A590 and COD values of LTP treatment groups were significantly reduced(P＜0.05).At the treatment time of 180 s,the decolorization rate and COD removal rate of CV solution reached 62.34％and 50.22％,respectively.Under the same treatment time(＞90 s),the A590 values in the 0.1 mol/L NaCl group,pH=9 or 11 group,and Fe2+group were lower than those in LTP-only treatment group,but the A590 values in the n-butanol group were higher(P＜0.05).The A590 values in 2 mL or 3 mL group were higher than those in 1 mL group(P＜0.05).Compared with CV solution treated with LTP,the H2O2 content in the activated water was higher while the NO3content was significantly lower than those in CV solutions(P＜0.05).Conclusion LTP has an efficient decolorization ability for CV solution.The decolorization of CV solution could be promoted by NaCl addition,Fe2+inclusion or high pH values,but was inhibited by the increase in treatment volume or the addition of n-butanol.The?OH and H2O2 generated by LTP played a key role in the decolorization process.

Objective:To investigate the therapeutic effects of adeno-associated virus vector 5 (AAV5)-mediated hepatic lipoprotein lipase (LPL) expression on serum triglyceride (TG) metabolism and hypertriglyceridemic acute pancreatitis (HTG-AP) in mice.Methods:Ten male C57BL/6 Lpl+/- mice were randomly divided into two groups by a random number table: the Lpl+/- control group and the Lpl+/- gene therapy group, with five mice in each group. The Lpl+/- control group received a tail vein injection of AAV5 vector carrying the enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) gene (AAV5-EGFP), while the Lpl+/- gene therapy group received a tail vein injection of AAV5 vector carrying the human LPLS447X gene (AAV5-LPLS447X). Oral fat tolerance tests were performed at 14, 28, and 56 days post-injection. Twenty wild-type ICR mice were randomly divided into a control group and a gene therapy group, with ten mice in each group. The ICR control group was injected with AAV5-EGFP, and the ICR gene therapy group was injected with AAV5-LPLS447X. Fourteen days after injection, the mice underwent intraperitoneal injection of P407 solution (0.5 g/kg) and caerulein (200 μg/kg) to induce HTG-AP. Serum TG, total cholesterol (TC), amylase, lipase levels, and plasma LPL activity after heparin injection were measured by microplate reader. Plasma LPL concentration was measured using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). LPL mRNA expression levels in the liver, heart, and adipose tissue of Lpl+/- mice were determined by quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). LPL protein expression in the liver tissue of ICR mice was detected by immunohistochemistry at 28 days after gene therapy. Histopathological changes in the pancreas were observed using hematoxylin-eosin staining. Results:Compared to the Lpl+/- control group, the Lpl+/- gene therapy group showed a significant decrease in serum TG levels starting from day 21. After oral administration of olive oil, the increase and peak of serum TG levels were significantly lower than those in the control group. Furthermore, hepatic LPL mRNA expression levels were significantly higher (1.96±0.11 vs 1.02±0.12) with statistical significance ( P<0.05). Compared to the ICR control group, the ICR gene therapy group showed a significant decrease in serum TG and TC levels, and plasma LPL activity (0.17±0.05 mEq/L·h -1vs 0.06±0.02 mEq/L·h -1) was significantly higher at 28 days after heparin injection with statistical significance (all P value <0.05). Immunohistochemical results showed high expression of LPL protein on the hepatocyte membrane in the liver of ICR gene therapy group mice. Moreover, pancreatic edema, inflammatory infiltration, and acinar cell necrosis were significantly alleviated compared to the control group. Conclusions:LPLS447X treatment can promote LPL expression in the liver of mice, significantly reduce TG levels, and alleviate the severity of HTG-AP.

Objective:To investigate factors influencing frequent episodes (≥ 4 episodes within 1 year) in children with moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD) in China.Methods:A national multicenter cross-sectional study was conducted. Patients under the age of 18 years diagnosed with moderate-to-severe AD were enrolled at dermatology clinics in 18 medical institutions across 12 provinces and municipalities in China between June 12 and August 8, 2023. At the time of the visit, their guardians completed a structured questionnaire covering demographic characteristics, clinical features of AD, personal and family history, factors associated with frequent episodes of moderate-to-severe AD, compliance with treatment, and disease awareness. Statistical analyses included t tests, one-way analysis of variance, rank-sum tests, and chi-square tests, with multiple-response analysis applied for multiple-choice questions. Results:A total of 965 valid questionnaires were collected, and 965 children with moderate-to-severe AD were included. Among them, there were 531 males and 434 females, 678 (70.3%) were aged 2 - < 12 years, 837 (86.7%) were from urban areas, the age at onset was 2.47 ± 3.03 years, and the median frequency of AD episodes in the past year was 4 times. These children were divided into 2 groups based on the median episode frequency: < 4-episode group (439 cases, 45.5%) and ≥ 4-episode group (526 cases, 54.5%). Compared with the < 4-episode group, children in the ≥ 4-episode group showed younger ages at onset (2.22 ± 2.98 years vs. 2.76 ± 3.06 years, P = 0.006) and higher proportions of patients with comorbid allergic diseases in both the children themselves (82.9% [436/526] vs. 69.7% [306/439], χ2 = 23.42, P < 0.001) and their relatives (66.0% [347/526] vs. 57.4% [252/439], χ2 = 7.46, P = 0.006). Children in the ≥ 4- episode group also had higher monthly usage of moisturizers (150 [30, 300] g vs. 60 [6, 200] g) and daily frequency of moisturizer use, greater disease awareness, but more severe fear of medication use (all P < 0.05). The region and the human development index level were both significantly associated with the episode frequency (both P < 0.001), with the highest proportion of children from South China in the ≥ 4- episode group (36.3%, 191/526). Children in the ≥ 4-episode group also had a longer duration of topical glucocorticoid use than those in the < 4-episode group ( Z = -2.21, P = 0.027). External triggers associated with AD episodes mainly included heat exposure (50.36%, 486/965), hot water bathing (40.73%, 393/965), seafood (23.52%, 227/965), and dust mites (33.37%, 322/965) . Conclusion:In children with moderate-to-severe AD in China, factors influencing frequent episodes may include residence in southern or economically developed regions, earlier age at onset, having a personal or family history of allergic diseases, and fear of medication use.
