ObjectiveTo explore the influence of excessive weight gain during pregnancy in pre-pregnancy overweight and obese women on pregnancy outcomes and neonatal conditions, and to provide scientific evidence for formulating weight management strategies before and during pregnancy and prevent adverse pregnancy outcomes. MethodsClinical data of 2 172 parturients collected from a community in Huangpu District from 2017 to 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, and they were divided into pre-pregnancy overweight and obesity group (n=530), normal pre-pregnancy weight group(n=937), and underweight pre-pregnancy group(n=705) according to maternal precursor body mass index (BMI). Based on their weight gain during pregnancy,the parturient were divided into moderate gestational weight gain (MGWG) group and excessive gestational weight gain (EGWG) group. Meanwhile, the pregnancy and neonatal outcomes such as postpartum hemorrhage, puerperal infection, placental abruption, premature rupture of membranes, mode of delivery, premature birth, stillbirth, fetal distress, admission to the intensive care unit (ICU), macrosomia, and Apgar score, were recorded. Then the differences in pregnancy and neonatal outcomes between groups were compared. The effects of pre-pregnancy BMI and gestational weight gain on pregnancy outcomes and neonatal conditions was retrospectively analyzed. ResultsThe pre-pregnancy overweight and obese group had higher proportions of placental abruption, premature rupture of membranes, cesarean section, premature birth, fetal distress, and macrosomia compared to the normal pre-pregnancy weight group and the underweight pre-pregnancy group, with Apgar scores lower than the normal pre-pregnancy weight group and the underweight pre-pregnancy group (all P<0.05). The EGWG group had higher proportions of postpartum hemorrhage, placental abruption, premature rupture of membranes, cesarean section, premature birth, fetal distress, admission to the ICU, and macrosomia than the MGWG group (all P<0.05). In the pre-pregnancy overweight and obese group, the EGWG group had higher proportions of placental abruption, premature rupture of membranes, premature birth, fetal distress, admission to the ICU, and macrosomia than the MGWG group, with lower Apgar scores than the MGWG group (all P<0.05). In the normal pre-pregnancy weight group, the EGWG group had higher proportions of placental abruption, premature rupture of membranes, premature birth, fetal distress, admission to the ICU, and macrosomia than the MGWG group (all P<0.05). In the pre-pregnancy overweight and obese group, the EGWG group had higher proportions of premature rupture of membranes, cesarean section, premature birth, fetal distress, and macrosomia than the EGWG group in the normal pre-pregnancy weight group(all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that EGWG in pre-pregnancy overweight and obese women was a risk factor for placental abruption (OR=2.971, 95%CI: 1.098‒8.042), premature rupture of membranes (OR=4.662, 95%CI: 2.798‒7.770), cesarean delivery (OR=1.375,95%CI: 1.260‒2.541), premature birth (OR=4.249, 95%CI: 2.384‒7.573), fetal distress (OR=3.238, 95%CI: 1.589‒6.598), admission to the ICU (OR=3.010, 95%CI: 1.265‒7.164), and macrosomia (OR=5.437, 95%CI: 3.392‒8.716) (all P<0.05). ConclusionExcessive gestational weight gain in pre-pregnancy overweight and obese women is a risk factors for placental abruption, premature rupture of membranes, cesarean section, premature birth, fetal distress, admission to the ICU, and macrosomia.

ObjectiveThe human angiotensin converting enzyme2 (hACE2) transgenic mouse model was used to clarify the antiviral efficacy of BD-77 against a novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 and explore the action mechanism of BD-77 against SARS-CoV-2. MethodSARS-CoV-2 Omicron and Delta variant strains-infected VeroE6 cell models were established and administered with BD-77 to observe the antiviral effect of BD-77 in vitro. A kit was used to detect the effect of BD-77 in vitro on the binding of spike S protein of SARS-CoV-2 virus (Delta/Omicron) to angiotensin converting enzyme2 (ACE2). Chromatography was adopted to detect the binding of BD-77 to the S protein and N protein of the novel coronavirus. hACE2 transgenic C57BL/6 mice were divided into a blank control group, SARS-CoV-2 infection group, BD-77 administration groups of 37.5 mg·kg-1 and 75 mg·kg-1, with eight mice in each group. The pneumonia model of SARS-CoV-2-infected hACE2 transgenic mice was built to observe the survival of the mice, detect the virus titer of the lung tissue of the mice, and observe the lesions in the lung tissue. ResultBD-77 had a certain inhibitory effect on Omicron and Delta variant strains in vitro, with median inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 526.3 mg·L-1 and 653.0 mg·L-1, respectively. BD-77 had no significant inhibitory effect on the binding of the S protein of WT, Omicron, and Delta variant strains of SARS-CoV-2 to ACE2 and had no binding effect with the S protein and N protein of the novel coronavirus. No mice in the blank group died, while the mortality rate of SARS-CoV-2-infected mice was 75%. There was a large amount of virus replication in the lung tissue of the mice and large areas of inflammatory infiltration in the lung tissue and interstitium. Compared with the model group, BD-77 administration groups of 37.5 mg·kg-1 and 75 mg·kg-1 could reduce the mortality of mice, significantly lower the virus titer in the lung tissue of mice (P<0.05), and improve lung lesions. ConclusionBD-77 demonstrated significant inhibitory effects against SARS-CoV-2 virus in vitro and in vivo. However, its mechanism of action did not involve direct inhibition of the virus itself or intervention in the virus-host binding process. This finding suggests that the mechanism of action of BD-77 needs to be thoroughly investigated and elucidated by further experiments.

Objective:To study the current status of longitudinal extrauterine growth restriction (EUGR) in extremely preterm infants (EPIs) and to develop a prediction model based on clinical data from multiple NICUs.Methods:From January 2017 to December 2018, EPIs admitted to 32 NICUs in North China were retrospectively studied. Their general conditions, nutritional support, complications during hospitalization and weight changes were reviewed. Weight loss between birth and discharge > 1SD was defined as longitudinal EUGR. The EPIs were assigned into longitudinal EUGR group and non-EUGR group and their nutritional support and weight changes were compared. The EPIs were randomly assigned into the training dataset and the validation dataset with a ratio of 7∶3. Univariate Cox regression analysis and multiple regression analysis were used in the training dataset to select the independent predictive factors. The best-fitting Nomogram model predicting longitudinal EUGR was established based on Akaike Information Criterion. The model was evaluated for discrimination efficacy, calibration and clinical decision curve analysis.Results:A total of 436 EPIs were included in this study, with a mean gestational age of (26.9±0.9) weeks and a birth weight of (989±171) g. The incidence of longitudinal EUGR was 82.3%(359/436). Seven variables (birth weight Z-score, weight loss, weight growth velocity, the proportion of breast milk ≥75% within 3 d before discharge, invasive mechanical ventilation ≥7 d, maternal antenatal corticosteroids use and bronchopulmonary dysplasia) were selected to establish the prediction model. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of the training dataset and the validation dataset were 0.870 (95% CI 0.820-0.920) and 0.879 (95% CI 0.815-0.942), suggesting good discrimination efficacy. The calibration curve indicated a good fit of the model ( P>0.05). The decision curve analysis showed positive net benefits at all thresholds. Conclusions:Currently, EPIs have a high incidence of longitudinal EUGR. The prediction model is helpful for early identification and intervention for EPIs with higher risks of longitudinal EUGR. It is necessary to expand the sample size and conduct prospective studies to optimize and validate the prediction model in the future.

Background::A phase II trial on recombinant human tenecteplase tissue-type plasminogen activator (rhTNK-tPA) has previously shown its preliminary efficacy in ST elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients. This study was designed as a pivotal postmarketing trial to compare its efficacy and safety with rrecombinant human tissue-type plasminogen activator alteplase (rt-PA) in Chinese patients with STEMI.Methods::In this multicenter, randomized, open-label, non-inferiority trial, patients with acute STEMI were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive an intravenous bolus of 16 mg rhTNK-tPA or an intravenous bolus of 8 mg rt-PA followed by an infusion of 42 mg in 90 min. The primary endpoint was recanalization defined by thrombolysis in myocardial infarction (TIMI) flow grade 2 or 3. The secondary endpoint was clinically justified recanalization. Other endpoints included 30-day major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCEs) and safety endpoints.Results::From July 2016 to September 2019, 767 eligible patients were randomly assigned to receive rhTNK-tPA ( n = 384) or rt-PA ( n = 383). Among them, 369 patients had coronary angiography data on TIMI flow, and 711 patients had data on clinically justified recanalization. Both used a –15% difference as the non-inferiority efficacy margin. In comparison to rt-PA, both the proportion of patients with TIMI grade 2 or 3 flow (78.3% [148/189] vs. 81.7% [147/180]; differences: –3.4%; 95% confidence interval [CI]: –11.5%, 4.8%) and clinically justified recanalization (85.4% [305/357] vs. 85.9% [304/354]; difference: –0.5%; 95% CI: –5.6%, 4.7%) in the rhTNK-tPA group were non-inferior. The occurrence of 30-day MACCEs (10.2% [39/384] vs. 11.0% [42/383]; hazard ratio: 0.96; 95% CI: 0.61, 1.50) did not differ significantly between groups. No safety outcomes significantly differed between groups. Conclusion::rhTNK-tPA was non-inferior to rt-PA in the effect of improving recanalization of the infarct-related artery, a validated surrogate of clinical outcomes, among Chinese patients with acute STEMI.Trial registration::www.ClinicalTrials.gov (No. NCT02835534).

Objective:To analyze the incidence and progression of overactive bladder(OAB)symp-toms following radical prostatectomy for prostate cancer patients and to identify related risk factors.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 263 local stage prostate cancer patients who underwent radical prostatectomy at Peking University Third Hospital from January 2013 to May 2017.Clinical base-line information,comprehensive imaging features,perioperative parameters,preoperative urinary control status,pathological diagnosis,and the incidence of OAB within one year postoperatively were collected and analyzed.In the imaging features,two parameters were defined:Bladder wall thickness(BWT)and bladder mucosal smoothness(BMS),which were used to predict the occurrence of OAB.Patients were evaluated based on their clinical baseline characteristics,including age,body mass index(BMI),co-morbidities,and prostate-specific antigen(PSA)levels.The imaging characteristics were assessed using preoperative MRI,focusing on BWT and BMS.Perioperative parameters included operative time,blood loss,and length of hospital stay.The OAB symptoms were assessed using the overactive bladder symptom score(OABSS)and the international prostate symptom score(IPSS).These scores were correlated with the postoperative incidence of OAB.Results:Among the 263 patients who underwent radical prostatecto-my,52(19.8%)exhibited OAB within one year postoperatively.Of the 40 patients with preoperative OAB symptoms,17(42.5%)showed remission postoperatively,while 23(57.5%)had persistent symptoms.Additionally,29 patients developed new-onset OAB,accounting for 55.77%of all postopera-tive OAB cases.Univariate analysis indicated that BWT,BMS,OABSS,and IPSS score were all associ-ated with the occurrence of postoperative OAB.Further multivariate analysis identified BMS as an inde-pendent risk factor for long-term OAB(P<0.001).Conclusion:Long-term postoperative overactive bladder is a common complication following radical prostatectomy.The findings suggest that preoperative MRI measurements of bladder wall thickness and bladder mucosal smoothness during bladder filling phase can predict the risk of OAB occurrence postoperatively.Identifying these risk factors preoperatively can help in counseling patients about potential complications and in developing strategies to mitigate the risk of developing OAB after surgery.Early detection and management of these parameters might improve the quality of life for patients undergoing radical prostatectomy.
