OBJECTIVE To evaluate the cost-effectiveness of cefiderocol versus best available therapy （BAT） or standard-of- care （SOC） for the treatment of confirmed or suspected carbapenem-resistant Gram-negative bacterial （CRGNB） serious infections from the perspective of the Chinese healthcare system， and to explore its reasonable pricing. METHODS A decision tree model was constructed based on data from two phase Ⅲ clinical trials （CREDIBLE-CR and GAME CHANGER） to simulate the cost- effectiveness of cefiderocol in two scenarios： salvage therapy for confirmed CRGNB infection （scenario 1） and empirical therapy for suspected CRGNB infection （scenario 2）. The primary outcome measure was the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio （ICER）. The willingness-to-pay （WTP） was set at 1 to 3 times China’s per capita GDP in 2024. To verify the robustness of the results， one- way and probabilistic sensitivity analyses were conducted， and based on these， a reasonable price range for cefiderocol in the Chinese market was explored. RESULTS The results for scenario 1 showed that the clinical cure rate in the cefiderocol group was higher than that in the BAT group （47.50% vs. 34.21%）， but its ICER was 415 065.03 yuan per cured case， exceeding three times China’s GDP per capita. Scenario 2 revealed that the ICER for cefiderocol relative to SOC was as high as 1 362 446.16 yuan per cured case， far exceeding the WTP. Sensitivity analysis indicated that the treatment duration and price of cefiderocol were key factors affecting its cost-effectiveness. In the two scenarios described above， the unit price of cefiderocol must fall below 683.47 and 242.00 yuan/g， respectively， to be considered cost-effective. CONCLUSIONS Based on the current market price， cefiderocol lacks sufficient cost-effectiveness for treating confirmed or suspected CRGNB serious infections within China’s healthcare system. To improve its accessibility， price negotiations or a tiered medical insurance payment strategy are required.

ObjectivePost-ischemic acute inflammation and the subsequent persistent dysregulation of the immune microenvironment represent major pathological drivers that aggravate neuronal injury and severely restrict functional recovery following ischemic stroke. Although current reperfusion therapies partially restore blood flow, they fail to effectively modulate the secondary inflammatory cascade and oxidative stress, which remain critical barriers to neurological restoration. To address this challenge, this study aimed to engineer and systematically evaluate a biomimetic nanosystem composed of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1)-loaded platelet membrane-camouflaged lipid nanoparticles (PLP). This nanosystem was designed to achieve dual lesion-targeted delivery and immune microenvironment remodeling. By verifying its spatiotemporal accumulation, anti-inflammatory activity, and neuroprotective efficacy, we sought to establish an integrated therapeutic strategy that simultaneously enables lesion targeting, immune regulation, and functional recovery after ischemic injury. MethodsThe physicochemical properties of PLP, including hydrodynamic particle size, zeta potential, structural stability, and morphology, were characterized using dynamic light scattering, zeta potential analysis, and transmission electron microscopy. The preservation of platelet membrane-derived adhesion and immunoregulatory proteins was confirmed by SDS-PAGE through comparative analysis of protein band profiles between PLP and native platelet membranes. The in vitro biological activities of PLP were evaluated using two complementary cellular models. LPS-induced M1-polarized RAW264.7 macrophages were employed to assess inflammatory modulation, while oxygen glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R)-induced BV2 microglial cells and SH-SY5Y neuronal cells were utilized to investigate neuroinflammatory regulation and neuronal protection. For in vivo validation, a transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) mouse model was established to mimic ischemia-reperfusion injury. The spatiotemporal biodistribution and lesion-targeting capability of the PLP were monitored through live fluorescence imaging. Therapeutic efficacy was comprehensively evaluated by triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) immunofluorescence analysis, body weight monitoring, and neurological severity score (NSS) assessment. ResultsPLP nanoparticles displayed a uniform spherical morphology, nanoscale particle size distribution, and stable negative surface charge, indicating favorable colloidal stability and circulation potential. SDS-PAGE results confirmed the effective retention of key platelet membrane proteins associated with endothelial adhesion, immune evasion, and inflammatory regulation, demonstrating the successful biomimetic construction. Optimal therapeutic concentrations were determined in OGD/R-induced BV2 cells, where PLP exhibited excellent cytocompatibility and anti-inflammatory activity.In vitro experiments demonstrated that PLP significantly inhibited the polarization of RAW264.7 macrophages toward the pro-inflammatory M1 phenotype and markedly reduced neuronal apoptosis under ischemia-reperfusion conditions. In vivo fluorescence imaging revealed that PLP rapidly accumulated in the ischemic brain hemisphere and maintained prolonged retention for up to 7 d, suggesting enhanced lesion-specific targeting and sustained drug release. Compared with control group, PLP treatment significantly reduced cerebral infarct volume, attenuated reactive astrogliosis, improved weight recovery, and accelerated neurological functional restoration, as reflected by significantly improved NSS scores. ConclusionThis study establishes a multifunctional biomimetic nanoplatform that integrates platelet membrane-mediated active targeting with the anti-inflammatory, antioxidative, and neuroprotective properties of TGF-β1. The PLP system enables rapid lesion homing and long-term retention while synergistically regulating the post-stroke inflammatory microenvironment by suppressing pro-inflammatory immune activation, reducing neuronal apoptosis, and limiting excessive astrocyte reactivity. Importantly, this study proposes a conceptually therapeutic paradigm that combines targeted delivery with immune microenvironment remodeling to achieve comprehensive neurovascular protection. These findings provide strong experimental evidence supporting the translational potential of biomimetic nanotherapeutics as next-generation precision interventions for ischemic stroke.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy,safety,and economic efficiency of toripalimab therapy for advanced esophageal cancer by rapid health technology assessment(rHTA),so as to provide clinical reference for drug use.Methods PubMed,Embase,Cochrane Library,CNKI,WanFang Data,VIP databases and official websites of health technology assessment institutions were electronically searched to collect high-quality clinical evidence and economic evaluation literature of toripalimab therapy for advanced esophageal cancer from inception to September 30,2025.Two reviewers independently identified studies,extracted data,assessed the quality of included studies,then the results were summarised and analysed using qualitative descriptive methods.Results A total of 18 articles were included,including 9 systematic reviews/Meta-analysis and 9 economic studies.In terms of efficacy,compared with the simple chemotherapy regimen,the combination chemotherapy regimen of toripalimab could significantly prolong the overall survival(OS)and progression free survival(PFS)of patients with advanced esophageal cancer,while improving the objective response rate(ORR)of patients.In terms of safety,there was no significant difference in the incidence of serious adverse events and overall adverse events between combination chemotherapy with toripalimab and chemotherapy alone.Moreover,compared with other immunotherapy combination therapies,the incidence of adverse events in combination chemotherapy with toripalimab was lower.In terms of economy,the combination of toripalimab and chemotherapy not only improves the clinical symptoms of advanced esophageal cancer patients,but also offers economic advantages.Conclusion Toripalimab is effective,safe and economical in the treatment of advanced esophageal cancer.

Objective To investigate the application of a 3-D printed femoral locator designed based on the modified quadrant method,combined with patient imaging data,then assist in femoral positioning for anterior cruciate ligament(ACL)reconstruction.Methods From January 2023 to January 2024,60 patients with primary ACL rupture who met the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned to either the 3-D printed guide group(using a 3-D printed femoral positioning guide to assist ACL reconstruction with nylon material)or the traditional surgery group(traditional surgery with direct visualization ACL reconstruction),with 30 patients in each group.Preoperative and postoperative knee CT scans and three-dimensional reconstructions were performed.The modified quadrant method was used to analyze and compare the percentage coordinates(Fx and Fy)of the femoral tunnel center point pre-and postoperatively within the same group and between different groups.Results The guides were made using nylon material.The surgery duration was significantly shorter in the 3D-printed guide group(53.8±6.0)min compared to the traditional surgery group(62.4±7.8)min,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Analysis using the modified quadrant method showed that the postoperative relative coordinate position percentages of the femoral tunnel center in the 3D-printed guide group(28.4±2.0)％and(35.5±2.3)％were not significantly different from the preoperative planned values(28.4±0.0)％and(35.7±0.0)％,the differences were not statistically significant(P＞0.05).Similarly,in the traditional surgery group,the postoperative coordinate percentages(28.1±2.9)％and(35.2±3.2)％showed no significant difference compared to the preoperative planned values(28.4±0.0)％and(35.7±0.0)％,the differences were not statistically significant(P＞0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the postoperative femoral tunnel center position percentages between the two groups(P＞0.05).The Lysholm score and International Knee Documentation Committee(IKDC)score of the two groups showed an increasing trend after surgery,and the differences between Lysholm score and IKDC score at each time point were statistically significant(P＜0.05).However,no statistical differences were found between the two groups at each postoperative time point(P＞0.05).Conclusion Both intra-articular 3D-printed guide-assisted and traditional surgery-assisted femoral positioning for ACL reconstruction can achieve anatomical reconstruction,with no significant difference in bone tunnel positioning.However,the use of intra-articular 3D-printed guide technology has a more centralized distribution of the femoral tunnel center point and a shorter surgery duration.This study provides proof of concept for the creation of personalized femoral tunnel locators for patients undergoing ACL reconstruction.

Objective:To investigate the possible mechanism of Zaogong Erteng decoction (ZGETD) in the treatment of endometritis.Methods:Femal mice were injected 2.5 mg/mL lipopolysaccharide into uterine horn to induce endometritis model. After modelling, low-dose ZGETD, high-dose ZGETD or amoxicillin was given once a day for 7 d. The appearance of the uterus and pathological changes of uterine tissue were observed 7 d later, and the uterine index was calculated. The expression of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-6 in mouse uterine tissue was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The activity of myeloperoxidase (MPO) in mouse uterine tissue was measured by redox reaction. The active ingredients of ZGETD and the target and signal pathway of treatment of endometritis were analyzed by network pharmacology. Western blotting and qRT-PCR were used to detect the expressions of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), P65, p-P65, interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) and p-IRF3 proteins and chemokines CXCL5 and CXCL8 in the mouse uterus, respectively. Terminal dUTP nick end labeling detected endometrial cell apoptosis and endometrial thickness was measured. After treatment, the female rats were mated with the male rats, and the mating rate, the pregnancy rate and the number of implantation sits in the injected uterine horn on day 8 of gestation were counted. Results:Both ZGETD and amoxicillin have atherapeutic effect on endometritis, but compared with low-dose ZGETD and amoxicillin, high-dose ZGETD can significantly alleviate the edema and congestion of uterine tissue and reduce the uterine index (all P=0.001). After treatment, the uterine cavity epithelium of mice was smooth and complete, the uterine gland structure was normal, and no bleeding area and inflammatory cell aggregation were observed. Compared with amoxicillin, high-dose ZGETD significantly decreased the expression of inflammatory factors (TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6) and MPO activity (all P<0.001). The expression of chemokines ( CXCL5 and CXCL8) was significantly reduced (all P<0.05). The signaling pathways TLR4, nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) and TNF related to the treatment of endometritis by ZGETD were screened by network pharmacology, and their action targets (TLR4, NF-κB and IRF3) were verified. Quercetin, fisetin and luteolin were found to be the most active ingredients acting on these targets. High-dose ZGETD significantly inhibited the activation of TLR4/NF-κB and TLR4/IRF3 pathways ( P<0.05), decreased endometrial cell apoptosis ( P<0.05), and increased endometrial thickness ( P<0.001), mating rate ( P<0.001), pregnancy rate ( P<0.001) and implantation site number of uterine horn on the injection side of LPS after treatment ( P=0.001). Conclusion:High-dose ZGETD has a significant therapeutic effect on endometritis, which may be closely related to the down-regulation of TLR4 signaling pathway.
