Objective To evaluate the reporting quality and influencing factors of patient-reported outcome (PRO) data in randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of lung cancer. Methods RCTs of lung cancer with PRO as either primary or secondary endpoints were searched from PubMed, EMbase, Medline, CNKI, Wanfang Data, and VIP databases between January 1, 2010 and April 20, 2024. Reporting quality of included RCTs were assessed based on the CONSORT-PRO extension. Descriptive statistics and bivariate regression analysis were used to describe the reporting quality and analyze the factors influencing the reporting quality. Results A total of 740 articles were retrieved. After screening, 53 eligible RCTs of lung cancer with 22 780 patients were included. The patients were mainly with non-small cell lung cancer (84.91%), with the median sample size of the included studies was 364.0 (160.5, 599.5) patients. The primary PRO tool used was the EORTC QLQ-C30 (60.38%). There were 52 (98.11%) studies whose PRO measured the domain of "symptom management of cough, dyspnea, fatigue, pain, etc.", and 45 (84.91%) studies measured "health-related quality of life". Multicenter studies accounted for 84.91%, and randomized non-blind trials accounted for 62.26%. PRO was used as the primary endpoint in 33.96% of the studies and as secondary endpoints in 66.04%. The reliability and validity of the PRO tools were explicitly mentioned in 11.32% and 7.55% of the studies, respectively. The average completeness of reporting according to the CONSORT-PRO guidelines was 60.00%, ranging from 25.00% to 93.00%. The main factors affecting the completeness of CONSORT-PRO reporting included sample size and publication year. For every increment in sample size, the completeness of reporting increased by 27.5% (SE=0.00, t=2.040, P=0.046). Additionally, studies published after 2018 had a 67.2% higher completeness of reporting compared to those published in or before 2018 (SE=17.8, t=–3.273, P=0.006). Conclusion The study reveals that the overall reporting quality of PRO in lung cancer RCTs is poor. Particularly, the reporting of PRO measures reliability and validity, PRO assumptions, applicability, and handling of missing data need further improvement. Future research should emphasize comprehensive adherence to the CONSORT-PRO guidelines.

BACKGROUND:Previous research by the research team found that domestically produced porous tantalum is beneficial for early adhesion and proliferation of MG63 cells,and can be used as a scaffold material for bone tissue engineering. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of domestic porous tantalum modified by osteogenic induction factor slow-release system on the adhesion,proliferation,and differentiation of MG63 cells. METHODS:Osteogenic induction factor slow-release system was constructed by adding 15%volume fraction of osteogenic factor solution to poly(lactic-co-glycolic-acid)gel.The passage 3 MG63 cells were inoculated on a porous tantalum surface(control group),porous tantalum surface coated with poly(lactic-co-glycolic-acid)copolymer gel(gel group),and porous tantalum surface coated with osteoblastic induction factor slow-release system(slow-release system group),and co-cultured for 5 days.The surface cytoskeleton of the material was observed by phalloidine staining.Cell proliferation was detected by flow cytometry.Western blot assay and RT-qPCR were used to detect the protein and mRNA expressions of type Ⅰ collagen,osteopontin,and RUNX-2 on the surface cells of the material. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Phalloidine staining showed that MG63 cells adhered to and grew on the surface and inside of the three groups of porous tantalum,and the matrix secreted by the cells covered the surface of the material.(2)Flow cytometry showed that the cell proliferation in the slow-release system group was faster than that in the control group and the gel group(P<0.05).(3)Western blot assay and RT-qPCR showed that the protein and mRNA expressions of type Ⅰ collagen,osteopontin,and RUNX-2 in the slow-release system group were higher than those in the control group and gel group(P<0.05).(4)The results showed that the domestic porous tantalum modified by the osteogenic induction factor slow-release system was beneficial to the adhesion,proliferation,and differentiation of MG63 osteoblasts.

Objective     To evaluate the robustness of cardiovascular meta-analysis with use of fragility index. Methods     By searching PubMed, EMbase, and Web of Science databases from 2018 to 2022, relevant literature on cardiovascular meta-analysis was systematically collected and the fragility indexes were calculated; Spearman correlation analysis was used to explore the relationship between fragility index and sample size, total number of events, effect size and its confidence interval width. Results     A total of 212 meta-analyses from 29 articles were included, with a median fragility index of 11 (5, 25), a median sample size of 10 301 (3 384, 48 330), and a median total number of events of 360 (129, 1 309). Most meta-analyses chose relative risk as the effect measure (179/212), and chose Mantel-Haenszel method (102/212) and random effects model (153/212). The fragility index was positively correlated with the sample size (rs=0.56, P<0.05) and the total number of events (rs=0.61, P<0.05), and negatively correlated with confidence interval width of the effect size (rs=−0.52, P<0.05). No statistically significant results were obtained in the correlation between the fragility index and effect size. Conclusion     The fragility indexes of cardiovascular meta-analyses published in comprehensive journals of high impact factors and professional cardiovascular journals are generally low, and therefore lack robustness. Fragility index is suggested to be reported in medical researches, assisting in explaining the P-value.

【Objective】 Corin, a transmembrane serine protease that can cleave atrial natriuretic peptide precursor (pro-ANP) into atrial natriuretic peptide with smaller bioactive molecules, participates in the pathophysiological process of hypertension and cardiac hypertrophy. The purpose of this study was to explore the relationship of Corin gene variation with blood pressure responses to sodium and potassium dietary interventions. 【Methods】 In 2004, we recruited 514 participants from 124 families in 7 villages of Baoji, Shaanxi Province, China. All the subjects received a 3-day normal diet, a 7-day low-salt diet, a 7-day high-salt diet, and finally a 7-day high-salt and potassium supplementation. Fifteen single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of Corin gene were selected for final analysis. 【Results】 SNPs rs12509275 were significantly associated with diastolic blood pressure (DBP) response to low-salt diet, while rs3749584 was associated with pulse pressure (PP) response to low-salt diet.SNP rs3749584 and rs10517195 were significantly associated with PP response to high-salt diet. In addition,rs17654278 were significantly associated with systolic blood pressure (SBP) response to high-salt and potassium supplementation, rs2271037 was significantly correlated with DBP responses to high-salt and potassium supplementation, and rs4695253, rs12509275, rs2351783, rs36090894 were significantly associated with PP response to high-salt and potassium supplementation. 【Conclusion】 Corin gene polymorphisms were associated with blood pressure response to sodium and potassium, suggesting that Corin gene may be involved in pathophysiological process of salt sensitivity and potassium sensitivity.

Objective:To study the clinical characteristics and differences of severe hyperbilirubinemia caused by hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN) and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency.Methods:From January 2014 to December 2021, newborns (gestational age ≥ 35 weeks and postnatal age ≤ 28 d) admitted to the Department of Neonatology of Hunan Children's Hospital with severe hyperbilirubinemia caused by HDN or G6PD deficiency were retrospectively analyzed. According to the etiology of hyperbilirubinemia, they were assigned into HDN group and G6PD deficiency group. The general conditions, clinical manifestations, laboratory results, treatment and prognosis of the two groups were compared using SPSS 26.0 software.Results:A total of 532 cases were in the HDN group and 413 cases in the G6PD deficiency group. The HDN group reached peak hyperbilirubinemia earlier than the G6PD deficiency group [3(2,5) d vs. 6(4,8)d, P<0.05]. The HDN group had lower peak value of total serum bilirubin [379.5(345.6,426.7) μmol/L vs. 486.4 (413.5,577.4) μmol/L] and lower incidence of anemia [37.4% (199/532) vs. 55.0% (227/413)]than the G6PD deficiency group.The incidence of anemia with elevated reticulocyte percent(Ret%) in the HDN group was higher than the G6PD deficiency group[66.3%(132/199) vs. 5.7%(13/227), P<0.05]. Compared with the G6PD deficiency group, the incidences of exchange transfusion and repeated (≥2 times) exchange transfusion, acute bilirubin encephalopathy(ABE) and the mortality rate after withdrawal of treatment in the HDN group were significantly lower ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Neonatal severe hyperbilirubinemia caused by HDN has early onset. G6PD deficiency caused hyperbilirubinemia has higher incidences of anemia, more severe jaundice and ABE, without increased Ret%.
