Under the trend of increasing aging, integrated elderly care and medical services is an important measure to optimize the supply of elderly care services and promote the good death of the elderly. Using the cooperative production theory and the classical grounded theory, a qualitative analysis was conducted on 38 cases of elderly palliative care and 25 cases of hospital-based palliative care under the integrated elderly care and medical services model from a hospital in Nanning City using Nvivo 20.0 software. This paper found that the integrated elderly care and medical services mode emphasized the deep integration of medical and elderly care services by integrating resources and improving service efficiency, to achieve the basic experience of comprehensive health care for the elderly. The promotion of these experiences has a positive significance for building a multi-agent cooperative production system, strengthening personnel training, perfecting the performance distribution mechanism, and further promoting the development of the national palliative care pilot.

OBJECTIVE To explore the effects of CD20 coding gene (MS4A1) polymorphism on the blood concentration and efficacy of rituximab in patients with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. METHODS A prospective observational study was conducted on 160 newly diagnosed non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma patients who received the R-CHOP regimen at the Sun Yat Sen University Cancer Center from January 2016 to December 2020, with a minimum follow-up period of approximately 5 years. The blood concentration of rituximab was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. MS4A1 tagSNPs were selected by Haploview4.2 software, including rs1051461, rs17155034, rs4939364, and rs10501385. The genotype of MS4A1 was detected by Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Univariate linear regression analysis was employed to examine the correlation between various factors(demographic, clinical, and genotypic variables) in patients and the steady-state trough concentration of rituximab during the first course of treatment, followed by multivariate linear regression analysis. Kaplan-Meier curves were drawn to evaluate progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS). Using MS4A1 genotype and tumor stage as independent variables, Cox regression model was employed to evaluate the factors influencing patient prognosis. RESULTS The blood concentration of rituximab in MS4A1 rs10501385 CC carriers was 15.20 μg/mL,which was significantly lower than 21.95 μg/mL in AA+AC carriers (P<0.05). The multivariate linear regression model incorporating tumor stage and MS4A1 rs10501385 polymorphism explained 7.3% of the interindividual variability in rituximab concentrations. Compared with MS4A1 rs1051461 CC carriers, CT+TT carriers had significantly prolonged PFS and OS (P<0.05). The Cox proportional hazards regression model showed that the MS4A1 rs1051461 CC genotype (HR=4.406, 95%CI:1.743-11.137, P<0.05) and tumor Ⅲ&Ⅳ (HR=3.233, 95%CI: 1.413-7.399, P<0.05) were independent risk factors for PFS. CONCLUSIONS The tumor staging and MS4A1 rs10501385 polymorphism are key influencing factors for blood concentration of rituximab, and MS4A1 rs1051461 polymorphism significantly affects PFS in non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma patients.

OBJECTIVE:
To observe the effects of Yisui Yangxin moxibustion (moxibustion for benefiting the marrow and nourishing the heart) in sequential trial on blood pressure (BP), perimenopausal symptoms, cardiovascular function and heart rate variability (HRV) in prehypertension in perimenopausal women.
METHODS:
The eligible female patients of prehypertension of perimenopausal period were collected according to the inclusion criteria. Based on the requirements of open two-way qualitative response sequential trial, the sample size was not set in advance, and the matched pair design was used for random division into a moxibustion group and a health education group. The patients of the two groups were treated in pairs, and the analysis was immediately performed after the end of treatment for each pair, and the sequential trial analysis (STA) was diagrammed. The health education group provided the health education for prehypertension to the patients according to 2018 Revised Chinese Hypertension Prevention and Treatment Guidelines. In the moxibustion group, beside the health education for prehypertension, the non-suppurative moxibustion was delivered at Baihui (GV20), Guanyuan (CV4) and bilateral Neiguan (PC6) and Zusanli (ST36), once every two days, 3 treatments per week and for 4 consecutive weeks. Before treatment, in 2 and 4 weeks of treatment, as well as in 1-month follow-up after treatment, BP was measured in each group, separately. Before treatment and in 4 weeks of treatment, the observation was performed in the score of the modified Kupperman scale, and Pittsburgh sleep quality index (PSQI) score, the indexes of cardiovascular function (stroke volume [SV], cardiac output per minute [CO], stroke index [SI], cardiac index [CI], left ventricular effective pumping force [VPE], left ventricular energy efficiency [EWK], arterial compliance [AC], left ventricular ejection resistance [VER], blood viscosity (N), and microcirculation half update rate [MHR]), and heart rate variability (HRV) indexes (low frequency [LF], high frequency [HF], LF/HF, standard deviation of NN interval [SDNN], root mean square of successive differences in adjacent NN intervals [RMSSD]).
RESULTS:
Based on sequential test line, when the trial was performed to the 17th pair, and the test line touched the upper limit U, meaning the results of the moxibustion group was superior to the health education group, thus, the trial stopped immediately. In 2 and 4 weeks of treatment and in follow-up, the systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) were lower when compared with those before treatment in the moxibustion group (P<0.05); SBP at each time point and DBP in 2 and 4 weeks of treatment in the moxibustion group were lower than those of the health education group (P<0.05). After treatment, the score of the modified Kupperman scale was reduced when compared with that before treatment in the moxibustion group (P<0.05). The score of the modified Kupperman scale and PSQI in the moxibustion group were lower than those of the health education group after treatment (P<0.05). After treatment, SV, CO, SI, CI and EWK were increased in comparison with the indexes before treatment in the moxibustion group (P<0.05), and VER and N were dropped (P<0.05). After treatment, SV, CO, SI, CI and EWK in the moxibustion group were higher than those of the health education group (P<0.05), and VER and N were lower (P<0.05). After treatment, in the moxibustion group, LF, HF, SDNN and RMSSD were increased in comparison with those before treatment (P<0.05), and LF/HF was declined (P<0.05). In the health education group, after treatment, LF, HF, SDNN and RMSSD decreased when compared with those before treatment (P<0.05). After treatment, LF, HF, SDNN and RMSSD in the moxibustion group were higher than those of the health education group (P<0.05), and LF/HF was lower (P<0.05). The total effective rate was 94.1% (16/17) in the moxibustion group, higher than that (41.2%, 7/17) in the health education group (P<0.05).
CONCLUSION
Moxibustion can reduce SBP and DBP in prehypertension of perimenopausal women, alleviate perimenopausal symptoms, improve cardiac function and adjust the overall balance of cardiac autonomic nerves.

INTRODUCTION:
Lecanemab has shown promise in treating early Alzheimer's disease (AD), but its safety and efficacy in Chinese populations remain unexplored. This study aimed to evaluate the safety and 6-month clinical outcomes of lecanemab in Chinese patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or mild AD.
METHODS:
In this single-arm, real-world study, participants with MCI due to AD or mild AD received biweekly intravenous lecanemab (10 mg/kg). The study was conducted at Hainan Branch, Ruijin Hospital Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine. Patient enrollment and baseline assessments commenced in November 2023. Safety assessments included monitoring for amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA) and other adverse events. Clinical and biomarker changes from baseline to 6 months were evaluated using cognitive scales (mini-mental state examination [MMSE], montreal cognitive assessment [MoCA], clinical dementia rating-sum of boxes [CDR-SB]), plasma biomarker analysis, and advanced neuroimaging.
RESULTS:
A total of 64 patients were enrolled in this ongoing real-world study. Safety analysis revealed predominantly mild adverse events, with infusion-related reactions (20.3%, 13/64) being the most common. Of these, 69.2% (9/13) occurred during the initial infusion and 84.6% (11/13) did not recur. ARIA-H (microhemorrhages/superficial siderosis) and ARIA-E (edema/effusion) were observed in 9.4% (6/64) and 3.1% (2/64) of participants, respectively, with only two symptomatic cases (one ARIA-E presenting with headache and one ARIA-H with visual disturbances). After 6 months of treatment, cognitive scores remained stable compared to baseline (MMSE: 22.33 ± 5.58 vs . 21.27 ± 4.30, P = 0.733; MoCA: 16.38 ± 6.67 vs . 15.90 ± 4.78, P = 0.785; CDR-SB: 2.30 ± 1.65 vs . 3.16 ± 1.72, P = 0.357), while significantly increasing plasma amyloid-β 42 (Aβ42) (+21.42%) and Aβ40 (+23.53%) levels compared to baseline.
CONCLUSIONS:
Lecanemab demonstrated a favorable safety profile in Chinese patients with early AD. Cognitive stability and biomarker changes over 6 months suggest potential efficacy, though high dropout rates and absence of a control group warrant cautious interpretation. These findings provide preliminary real-world evidence for lecanemab's use in China, supporting further investigation in larger controlled studies.
