As a new type of immunosuppressant,iguratimod can mediate the anti-inflammatory signaling pathway by inhibiting the proliferation of inflammatory cells and reducing the release of inflammatory cytokines, and play the role of anti-inflammatory. It can affect the proliferation of immune cells and the expression of immune factors,reduce the production and deposition of immune complexes in the body,and play the role of immune regulation. It can regulate bone metabolism by mediating signaling pathways such as Wnt/β-catenin,Toll-like receptor 4/nuclear factor-κB and osteoprotegerin/nuclear factor-κB receptor activating factor ligand, and play a role in bone protection. It can inhibit pulmonary fibrosis by inhibiting the expression of transforming growth factor β1/ Smad2/3 signaling pathway,tumor necrosis factor-α,interleukin-1,interleukin-6,matrix metalloproteinase-9 and other inflammatory cytokines in lung tissue,and inhibiting the expression of collagen and fibronectin. Its efficacy and safety have been confirmed in the clinical application of rheumatoid arthritis and primary Sjogren syndrome and included in the diagnosis and treatment of the disease. It has also shown good efficacy in the clinical application of other connective tissue diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus and ankylosing spondylitis,and no obvious safety risks have been found.

Objective:To retrospectively analyze the treatment status of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) in newly diagnosed patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in China.Methods:Data of chronic phase (CP) and accelerated phase (AP) CML patients diagnosed from January 2006 to December 2022 from 77 centers, ≥18 years old, and receiving initial imatinib, nilotinib, dasatinib or flumatinib-therapy within 6 months after diagnosis in China with complete data were retrospectively interrogated. The choice of initial TKI, current TKI medications, treatment switch and reasons, treatment responses and outcomes as well as the variables associated with them were analyzed.Results:6 893 patients in CP ( n=6 453, 93.6%) or AP ( n=440, 6.4%) receiving initial imatinib ( n=4 906, 71.2%), nilotinib ( n=1 157, 16.8%), dasatinib ( n=298, 4.3%) or flumatinib ( n=532, 7.2%) -therapy. With the median follow-up of 43 ( IQR 22-75) months, 1 581 (22.9%) patients switched TKI due to resistance ( n=1 055, 15.3%), intolerance ( n=248, 3.6%), pursuit of better efficacy ( n=168, 2.4%), economic or other reasons ( n=110, 1.6%). The frequency of switching TKI in AP patients was significantly-higher than that in CP patients (44.1% vs 21.5%, P<0.001), and more AP patients switched TKI due to resistance than CP patients (75.3% vs 66.1%, P=0.011). Multi-variable analyses showed that male, lower HGB concentration and ELTS intermediate/high-risk cohort were associated with lower cytogenetic and molecular responses rate and poor outcomes in CP patients; higher WBC count and initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher response rates; Ph + ACA at diagnosis, poor PFS. However, Sokal intermediate/high-risk cohort was only significantly-associated with lower CCyR and MMR rates and the poor PFS. Lower HGB concentration and larger spleen size were significantly-associated with the lower cytogenetic and molecular response rates in AP patients; initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher treatment response rates; lower PLT count, higher blasts and Ph + ACA, poorer TFS; Ph + ACA, poorer OS. Conclusion:At present, the vast majority of newly-diagnosed CML-CP or AP patients could benefit from TKI treatment in the long term with the good treatment responses and survival outcomes.

Objective:To analyze the differential expressions of proteins in aqueous humor in patients with exfoliation syndrome (XFS).Methods:A total of 20 patients were enrolled in the Department of Ophthalmology, People's Hospital of Hotan District from June 2020 to January 2021, including 10 patients with age-related cataract and 10 XFS patients combined with cataract, which were classified as cataract group and XFS group, respectively.A total of 50 to 100 μl aqueous humor was obtained in the middle of the anterior chamber through the intraoperative phacoemulsification channel.The proteins extracted from aqueous humor were analyzed by label-free quantitative proteomics technology.The cataract group was set as the control group, and the differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in XFS group were screened according to P<0.05 and fold change >1.5.Gene ontology (GO) function analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) signaling pathway analysis were used to explore the function and regulatory signaling pathways of DEPs in the XFS group.This study adhered to the Declaration of Helsinki.The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of Tianjin Medical University Eye Hospital (No.2020KY[L]-21).Written informed consent was obtained from each subject. Results:In comparison with the cataract group, 25 DEPs were identified in the XFS group, primarily involved in cell adhesion, receptor, hydrolase, and molecular transport.Specifically, there were 14 down-regulated proteins including complement factor H-related protein 1 (CFHR1), endoplasmic reticulum chaperone BiP (HSPA5), biglycan (BGN), FRAS1-related extracellular matrix protein 2 (FREM2), hemoglobin subunit delta (HBD), hemoglobin subunit gamma-1 (HBG1), lysosomal thioesterase PPT2 (PPT2) etc., and 11 up-regulated proteins including latent-transforming growth factor beta-binding protein 2 (LTBP2), very low-density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR), laminin subunit alpha-2 (LAMA2), coagulation factor Ⅸ (F9).Among them, FREM2 was the most significantly differentially expressed protein in XFS group with consistent expression levels across individual samples.GO analysis revealed that these DEPs mainly localized to the extracellular matrix of collagen, bound globin-hemoglobin complex, plasma lipoprotein particles and lysosomes.Molecular functions and biological processes showed that HBD and HBG1 were involved in cellular detoxification, PPT2 in hydrolase activity, and BGN and LTBP2 in glycosaminoglycan binding.KEGG signaling pathway analysis indicated that CFHR1 and F9 were associated with complement and coagulation cascade pathways, and FREM2 and LAMA2 were linked to the extracellular matrix interaction pathway.Conclusions:Disease progression of XFS may be associated with changes in extracellular matrix proteins, disruption of the blood-aqueous humor barrier, and potential inflammatory responses.The significant down-regulation of FREM2 protein may be a potential biomarker for XFS.

Objective:To compare the effect of a 3D-printed ankle and foot orthosis (AFO) with that of a traditional AFO on the recovery of walking function after a stroke.Methods:Thirty-four hemiplegic stroke survivors were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group, each of 17. Both groups were taught good limb placement and given joint mobility, standing and walking training for 4 weeks wearing either a 3D-printed or a conventional AFO. Walking speed, walking endurance, and dynamic balance were evaluated before and after the experiment using the 10-metre walk test (10MWT), the 6-minute walk test (6MWT), and the timed up and go test (TUGT). Integrated electromyography (iEMG) was also performed on each subject′s bilateral rectus femoris, anterior tibialis, and gastrocnemius muscles during walking, and their healthy and affected side iEMG results were compared to assess the activation of the affected lower limb muscles.Results:After treatment, the 10MWT, 6MWT, and TUGT results of both groups had improved significantly, but the observation group′s average results were then significantly better than those in the control group. The iEMG disparities between the healthy and affected sides had also decreased significantly, but on average the disparities in the observation group were significantly smaller than in the control group.Conclusion:Both types of AFO can effectively improve the walking speed, walking endurance, and dynamic balance of hemiplegic stroke survivors and promote muscle activation in the affected lower limb. A 3D-printed AFO is relatively more effective.
