Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of ruxolitinib combined with low-dose hormone for patients with acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Methods: Thirty patients with aGVHD after allo-HSCT admitted to the Department of Hematology of the General Hospital of Western Theater Command from November 2021 to November 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated with low-dose hormone (methylprednisolone 0.3-1 mg kg
-d
) combined with ruxolitinib 5-10 mg d
. The efficacy and adverse reactions were observed during the follow-up period to analyze the survival outcomes of the patients. Results: A total of 30 patients with aGVHD after allo-HSCT were included in this study, consisting of 15 (50%) males and 15 (50%) females with a median age of 34 year-old (ranging from 14 to 62). Classification by disease type: there were 18 cases of acute myeloid leukemia, 4 cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia, 4 cases of aplastic anemia, and 4 cases of myelodysplastic syndrome. Classification by aGVHD severity: there were 27 cases (90%) of Ⅱ-Ⅳ degree aGVHD and 11 cases (36.7%) of Ⅲ-Ⅳ degree aGVHD. Ruxolitinib in combination with low-dose glucocorticoid treatment yield responses in 28 (93.3%) patients, of which 27 (90%) achieved complete remission (CR), while 1 (3.3%) showed partial remission (PR). One patient (3.3%) had no response (NR), and 1 patient (3.3%) exhibited progressed disease (PD). Overall survival (OS) at 1 year of transplantation was 73.9% (95%CI 49.5% to 87.7%), progression-free survival (PFS) was 93.3% (95%CI 75.9% to 98.3%), non-relapse mortality (NRM) was 20.6% (95%CI 7.9% to 47.4%), and median survival time was 27.6 months. Conclusion: Ruxolitinib combined with low-dose hormones is safe and effective in the treatment of aGVHD after allo-HSCT.

According to traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) theory, impaired spleen transportation function disrupts nutrient distribution, causing metabolic accumulation of lipids that transform into pathogenic phlegm-dampness. These pathological factors disseminate through the San Jiao and obstruct meridian pathways, ultimately forming the pathogenesis described as "all disorders involve phlegm". Phlegm and dampness share common pathogenic origins but manifest distinct clinical manifestations. Dampness, as the precursor, may congeal into phlegm, while existing phlegm accumulation can further exacerbate dampness stagnation, thereby establishing a self-perpetuating pathological cycle. Modern medical research has confirmed that the essence of "phlegm-dampness" syndrome is closely associated with energy metabolism disorders, serving as a common pathological basis for metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes mellitus, atherosclerosis, and other major chronic diseases. As a crucial vehicle for medical experimental research, disease-syndrome combination animal models serve as an indispensable means to advance the modernization of TCM. Currently, based on classical theories such as "rich and greasy foods produce phlegm" and "physical coldness combined with cold consumption causes external pathogens to invade the skin and hair, thereby generating internal dampness", researchers primarily employ two paradigms to construct animal models of phlegm-turbidity, dampness obstruction, and phlegm-dampness syndromes: the first involves simulating TCM etiological factors (through methods like dietary irregularities, imblanace between work and rest, and combined internal-external dampness exposure), while the second combines disease with syndrome differentiation (inducing pathological changes through physical, chemical, or biological interventions). Through comprehensive evaluation incorporating macroscopic observation and microscopic index detection, model animals undergo systematic biological and pathological assessment, with further syndrome type verification achieved via the "prescription-based syndrome detection" approach. However, existing models still exhibit significant deficiencies in both the standardization of modeling methodologies and the systematization of evaluation criteria. This paper reviews the strategies for constructing "phlegm-dampness" syndrome animal models and their corresponding evaluation indices, focusing on the pathological correlations among different modeling approaches. The aim is to provide methodological guidance for research on TCM syndromes related to "phlegm-dampness" syndrome and to support the development of TCM therapies for resolving phlegm and eliminating dampness. This study not only contributes to advancing the standardization of TCM syndrome research but also provides crucial technical support for the modernization of TCM.

OBJECTIVE To provide references for optimizing the review and approval system of clinically urgent overseas-marketed drugs in China. METHODS The characteristics of the review and approval system for clinically urgent overseas-marketed drugs were analyzed. A comparative research method was employed to examine differences between China and Australia, Switzerland, and Canada in three dimensions: qualification determination for clinical urgency (i.e., access qualification), review methods, and approval modalities. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS In China’s current system, the legal nature of communication and consultation meetings is ambiguous, as the qualification determination function is embedded within technical consultation procedures without remedy channels. The pre-marketing clinical trial exemption for drugs is disconnected from the post-marketing confirmation obligation, and insufficient access to complete overseas review information weakens risk control effectiveness. A differentiated triage mechanism based on the timing of global approval has not been established, providing insufficient incentives for global simultaneous research and development. International typical regulatory models set access qualification, review methods, and approval modalities as independent modules, forming a quid pro quo relationship by relaxing pre-marketing access conditions and establishing post-marketing conditional approval mechanisms. It is recommended to formulate technical guidelines for the determination of clinically urgent drugs to clarify objective discretionary benchmarks, clarify the legal nature of communication and consultation meetings and allocate remedy channels, mandatorily include clinical trial-exempted varieties in the conditional approval procedure and establish a negative signal linkage mechanism, and implement differentiated triage based on approval timing, so as to improve China’s review and approval system.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety and efficacy of oxycodone versus sufentanil for postoperative analgesia in patients with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) undergoing uvulopalatopharyngoplasty (UPPP). MethodsWe enrolled 73 consecutive patients with moderate-to-severe OSA (confirmed by polysomnography) scheduled for elective UPPP under general anesthesia at our institution between August 2023 and August 2025. Patients were randomly assigned to receive oxycodone (n = 37) or sufentanil (n = 36) using a random number table . The sufentanil group received 1.5 μg per kilogram of body weight, and the oxycodone group received 0.9 mg per kilogram; both groups used patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) pumps with a total volume of 100 mL. A 2 mL loading dose was administered 10 minutes before the end of surgery, followed by a background infusion of 2 mL per hour, 2 mL bolus doses on demand, an 8-minute lockout interval, and a maximum hourly volume of 10 mL. We assessed pain scores (Numerical Rating Scale) at rest and during swallowing, Ramsay sedation scores, morphine-equivalent opioid consumption, PCIA bolus demands, patient satisfaction, time to first oral intake, and adverse events (including respiratory depression, nausea, and vomiting) at 4, 12, 24, and 48 hours postoperatively. ResultsBaseline characteristics were well balanced between the two groups (all P>0.05). No significant between-group differences were observed in resting and swallowing NRS scores or Ramsay sedation scores at each postoperative time point, PCIA satisfaction, time to first oral intake, or adverse event incidence across all postoperative time points (all P>0.05). Morphine-equivalent opioid consumption was significantly lower in the oxycodone group at all time points, as were unsuccessful PCIA bolus demands at 24 and 48 hours postoperatively (both P<0.05). ConclusionsLow-dose oxycodone provided analgesic efficacy similar to that of sufentanil for PCIA after UPPP in patients with moderate-to-severe OSA, with no significant between-group differences in adverse events, time to first oral intake, or satisfaction .The oxycodone group had numerically lower adverse event rates and a shorter time to first oral intake, suggesting a favorable safety profile and potential benefits for reducing opioid-related events and facilitating earlier recovery in this patient population.

ObjectiveTo investigate the association and translational mechanism between the hepatotoxicity of Xianling Gubao (XLGB) and its treatment of osteoporosis based on a zebrafish model. MethodsZebrafish were randomly selected four days after fertilization (4 dpf) and exposed to different concentrations of XLGB (0.7,0.35 mg·L-1) for 96 h. At the endpoint of the exposure, the mortality rates of zebrafish in the treatment groups of different concentrations were counted, and the "dose-toxicity" curves were plotted. The 10% sublethal concentration (LC10) was calculated. The liver area, acridine orange staining, and pathological tissue sections of transgenic zebrafish [CZ16 (gz15Tg.Tg (fabp 10a: ds Red; ela31: EGFP)] were used as indicators to confirm the hepatic damage caused by the sublethal concentration of XLGB. By using the prednisolone (PNSL)-induced osteoporosis model of zebrafish, the anti-osteoporosis activity of XLGB was evaluated by using the area of skull stained by alizarin red and the cumulative optical density value as indicators. Then, the toxicity difference of XLGB on the liver of zebrafish in healthy and osteoporotic states was compared, and the mechanism of the translational action of the toxicity of XLGB was predicted based on network pharmacology and real-time polymerase chain reaction(Real-time PCR). ResultsThe LC10 of XLGB on zebrafish (8 dpf) was 0.7 mg·L-1. Compared with the blank group, the sublethal concentration (LC10=0.7 mg·L-1, 1/2 LC10=0.35 mg·L-1) of XLGB induced an increase in the number of apoptosis of hepatocytes in a dose-dependent manner, and the tissue arrangement of the liver was disordered and loose. The vacuoles were obvious, and the fluorescence area of the liver was significantly reduced (P<0.01). Compared with the blank group, the mineralized area and cumulative optical density value of zebrafish skull in the PNSL model group were significantly reduced (P<0.01), and those in the 0.7,0.35 mg·L-1 XLGB treatment group were significantly increased compared with the model group (P<0.01). Most importantly, 0.7 mg·L-1 XLGB had no significant effect on the liver of zebrafish in the osteoporosis disease model compared with the blank group. The results of network pharmacology and real-time PCR experiments showed that the toxic transformation of XLGB might be related to the differences in the expression levels of key targets, such as tumor protein 53 (TP53), cysteine aspartic acid specific protease-3(Caspase-3), interleukin(IL)-6, and alkaline phosphatase(ALP) in different organismal states. ConclusionUnder certain conditions, XLGB has hepatotoxicity in normal zebrafish, but under osteoporotic conditions, XLGB not only exerts significant anti-osteoporosis activity but also alleviates hepatotoxicity significantly, which provides a reference for the safe clinical use of XLGB and real evidence for the theories of traditional Chinese medicine of attacking poison with poison and of treating disease with corresponding drugs without damage to the body.

Objective: To establish a prenatal non-invasive method for combined detection of fetal ABO, RhD, and RhCE blood group genotypes based on fluorescence quantitative PCR (FQ-PCR) technology, and to evaluate its clinical value in the early prenatal diagnosis of hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN). Methods: A total of 200 high-risk singleton pregnant women who underwent prenatal examinations in our hospital from January 2022 to December 2024 were prospectively enrolled. They were divided into four groups: the ABO incompatibility group (n=100), the RhD incompatibility group (n=50), the RhCE incompatibility group (n=50), and the control group (n=200). FQ-PCR technology was used to detect cell-free fetal DNA (cff-DNA) in maternal plasma, targeting the ABO system (261delG, 796C>A), exons 5/7 of the RHD gene, and the key loci of RhCE system (C/c, E/e). After delivery, the blood group of newborn was verified by serological testing of umbilical cord blood., and the hemolysis panel tests (direct antiglobulin test, free antibody test, and antibody release test) were performed to evaluate the detection consistency and identify high-risk factors. Results: The detection coincidence rates for ABO, RhD, and RhCE blood groups were 98.0% (98/100), 100.0% (50/50), and 96.0% (48/50), respectively. The incidence of HDFN in the ABO incompatibility group was 69.0% (69/100), which is significantly higher than that in the RhD incompatibility group (10.0%, 5/50) and the RhCE incompatibility group (2.0%, 1/50). Multivariate analysis identified maternal blood type O (OR=3.021), maternal RhD-negative (OR=5.253), and maternal age ≥35 years (OR=1.950) as independent risk factors for HDFN (all P<0.05). Conclusion: Prenatal non-invasive combined detection of multiple blood group antigen genotypes can significantly improve the efficiency of early diagnosis of HDFN and provide accurate early warning for high-risk pregnant women.

Gallbladder cancer with delayed diagnoses, as a malignant tumor diagnosed intraoperatively or postoperatively incidentally in benign gallbladder diseases, radical surgical treatment is its core treatment, and the necessity of re-operation, timing of surgery, choice of surgical procedure, definition of resection extent, and preoperative neoadjuvant therapy still remain controversial. Re-operation for gallbladder cancer with delayed diagnoses needs to balance tumor radicalization, postoperative risk, and survival benefit, and combining neoadjuvant therapy to facilitate radical treatment, and develop individualized protocols. The multidisciplinary team should integrate innovative technologies and multi-center prospective studies to promote the development of precise treatment strategies for gallbladder cancer with delayed diagnoses and optimize the survival of patients.

Objective To investigate the interaction between a novel antimicrobial compound,HL-J6,and penicillin-binding protein 1(PBP1)of Staphylococcus aureus.Methods With MRSA252 genomic DNA as the template and PBP1F and PBP1R as primers,the expression plasmid pET30a-pbp1-39-608 was constructed by amplifying the target gene fragment followed by cloning into the Nde I/Xho I restriction sites of the pET30a vector.Then the obtained plasmids were transformed into Escherichia coli for the expression of PBP1-39-608 protein,and the product was purified by affinity chromatography.The inhibitory effect of HL-J6 on the transpeptidase activity of PBP1-39-608 was measured using peptidoglycan side chain backbone peptide,with thiol ester analog S2d as the substrate.The affinity between HL-J6 and PBP1-39-608 was detected using microscale thermophoresis(MST),and the binding interaction was confirmed by cellular thermal shift assay(CETSA).Molecular docking and dynamics simulation were performed using AutoDock Vina and Desmond software,respectively,to elucidate the binding mode of HL-J6 with the PBP1-39-608 protein and the key amino acid residues involved.Results The recombinant plasmid pET30a-pbp1-39-608 was successfully constructed,and PBP1-39-608 protein was produced after induction and purified,yielding a protein with an approximate molecular mass of 65×103.HL-J6 inhibited the transpeptidase activity of PBP1-39-608 in a time-dependent manner(P<0.001).The dissociation constant Kd of the binding between HL-J6 and PBP1-39-608 was 64.92 μmol/L.Molecular docking results showed that HL-J6 bound to the active pocket of PBP1-39-608 by interacting with key residues such as ILE-348,ASN-370,THR-516 and PHE-423,with a binding score of-8.38 kcal/mol(<-5.00 kcal/mol).Dynamics simulation results indicated that the complex became stable after 50 ns.Conclusion HL-J6 effectively inhibits the transpeptidase activity of Staphylococcus aureus PBP1,and shows stable interaction with the protein.
