Background::Atopic dermatitis (AD) affects approximately 10% of adults worldwide. CM310 is a humanized monoclonal antibody targeting interleukin-4 receptor alpha that blocks interleukin-4 and interleukin-13 signaling. This trial aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of CM310 in Chinese adults with moderate-to-severe AD.Methods::This multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 2b trial was conducted in 21 medical institutions in China from February to November 2021. Totally 120 eligible patients were enrolled and randomized (1:1:1) to receive subcutaneous injections of 300 mg CM310, 150 mg CM310, or placebo every 2 weeks for 16 weeks, followed by an 8-week follow-up period. The primary endpoint was the proportion of patients achieving ≥75% improvement in the Eczema Area and Severity Index (EASI-75) score from baseline at week 16. Safety and pharmacodynamics were also studied.Results::At week 16, the proportion of EASI-75 responders from baseline was significantly higher in the CM310 groups (70% [28/40] for high-dose and 65% [26/40] for low-dose) than that in the placebo group (20%[8/40]). The differences in EASI-75 response rate were 50% (high vs. placebo, 95% CI 31%–69%) and 45% (low vs. placebo, 95% CI 26%–64%), with both P values <0.0001. CM310 at both doses also significantly improved the EASI score, Investigator’s Global Assessment score, daily peak pruritus Numerical Rating Scale, AD-affected body surface area, and Dermatology Life Quality Index compared with placebo. CM310 treatment reduced levels of thymus and activation-regulated chemokine, total immunoglobulin E, lactate dehydrogenase, and blood eosinophils. The incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) was similar among all three groups, with the most common TEAEs reported being upper respiratory tract infection, atopic dermatitis, hyperlipidemia, and hyperuricemia. No severe adverse events were deemed to be attributed to CM310. Conclusion::CM310 at 150 mg and 300 mg every 2 weeks demonstrated significant efficacy and was well-tolerated in adults with moderate-to-severe AD.Trial Registration::ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04805411.

Objective To observe the application effect of magnetic resonance imaging technology in evaluating the brain structure and function of patients with type 2 diabetic painful neuropathy (PDN). Methods Forty patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus hospitalized in our hospital were selected as the study objects, and were divided into diabetes mellitus (DM) group (n=12), peripheral neuropathy (DPN) group (n=14) and PDN group (n=14). General clinical biochemical indexes of three groups were analyzed. The structural brain and function of brain area in three groups were compared. Results Age, duration of diabetes, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose (FBG), glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), free fatty acid (FFA), albumin (ALB), creatinine (Cr), uric acid (UA), estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), cystatin C (Cys-C), total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG) of the three groups were compared, high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4), thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), thyroglobulin antibody (TGAb), thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPO-Ab) and serum calcium (Ca) in the three groups showed no significant differences (P > 0.05). Compared with the DM group, the gray matter volume (GMV) in the DPN group was significantly decreased (P < 0.05). Compared with the DM group, amplitude of low frequency fluctuation (ALFF) and fractional amplitude of low frequency fluctuation (fALFF) of left medial superiorfrontal gyrus in the PDN group were significantly decreased (P < 0.05). Conclusion Abnormal GMV in the left angular gyrus in DPN patients may be associated with a higher risk of concomitant cognitive impairment. The decrease of ALFF in the right cerebellar vermis and fALFF in the left medial superior frontal gyrus in PDN patients may be related to the pathogenesis of pain.

Objective : To explore the association of time in range(TIR) and glucose management indicator ( GMI) with the risk of type 2 diabetic nephropathy (DN) ． Methods : The clinical data of 215 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) were collected and analyzed．According to the results of estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and urinary albumin to creatinine ratio( UACR) ，they were divided into 117 patients with T2DM and 98 patients with DN．The clinical data，biochemical indicators and continuous glucose monitoring ( CGM) indicators of the two groups were compared．Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of DN risk．The predictive value of TIR and GMI on the risk of DN was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.

ObjectiveTo investigate the association of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) with the prognosis of patients with alcohol-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after radical treatment. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 43 patients with alcohol-related HCC who were admitted to The Fifth Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital and underwent radical treatment from January 2008 to July 2015, and according to HDL-C level, the patients were divided into normal group with 26 patients and abnormal group with 17 patients. The two groups were compared in terms of basic information, laboratory markers, imaging indices, Barcelona Clinic Liver Cancer tumor stage, and Child-Pugh class of liver function. The t-test test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between two groups, and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between two groups; the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to plot survival curves and the log-rank test was used for comparison between groups. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazards models were used to analyze independent risk factors for prognosis. ResultsThere was a significant difference in prealbumin between the two groups (162.38±60.86 mg/L vs 120.06±64.08 mg/L, t=2.184, P=0.035). Number of tumors (hazard ratio ［HR］=2.839, 95%confidence interval ［CI］: 1.120~7.200,P=0.028), tumor size (HR=2.634, 95%CI: 1.062~6.529,P=0037), and HDL-C level (HR=2.400, 95%CI: 1.040~5.537,P=0.040) were independent risk factors for the overall survival of patients with alcohol-related HCC. There were significant differences in 1-, 3-, and 5-year cumulative survival rates between the normal group and the abnormal group (88.5%/72.4%/55.7% vs 70.6%/43.7%/17.5%, χ2=5.881, P=0.015). ConclusionThe reduction in HDL-C level might indicate poor prognosis of patients with alcohol-related HCC.

Background: Epidemiological evidence revealed that stress is the causative factor of dyspeptic symptoms. It has been documented that duodenal inflammation is one of the key mechanisms of dyspepsia, and macrophage is crucial for inflammation. Aims: To determine whether patients with functional dyspepsia (FD) comorbid psychological stress have duodenal inflammation. Furthermore, to identify whether macrophage is involved in the mechanisms of stress-related duodenal inflammation by using water avoidance stress (WAS)animal model. Methods: Duodenal inflammation was observed and compared between FD patients with psychological factors and asymptomatic healthy controls. WAS mouse model with 1 h stress daily for 10 days was used to evaluate the duodenal inflammation at different time points to describe its dynamic changes. The role of macrophage in the development of duodenal inflammation was determined in an interventional study, in which the resident macrophages were depleted by clodronate liposomes. In both clinical and animal studies, the severity of duodenal inflammation was assessed by HE staining and immunocyte counts, the macrophage infiltration was detected by immunohistochemistry, and the expression of inflammatory cytokines was detected by real-time PCR. Results: FD patients with psychological factors developed severe duodenal inflammation in comparison with the healthy controls (immunocytes/HPF: 138.91±7.13 vs. 81.44±23.60, P<0.000 1). At the same time, the expressions of proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-17A) were increased, while the expressions of anti-inflammatory cytokines (IL-10 and TGF-β) were decreased (all P<0.05). In WAS mouse model, a dynamic change in duodenal inflammation which peaked on day 5 was observed, and the changes of macrophage infiltrating in the duodenal tissue were consistent with the duodenal inflammation. Clodronate liposomes pretreatment could effectively deplete macrophages, protected the WAS mouse model against duodenal inflammation (immunocytes/HPF: 75.10±4.08 vs. 202.43±5.18, P<0.001), with a marked reduction of the expressions of proinflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-8), and a marked elevation of the expression of anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 (all P<0.05). Conclusions: Psychological stress may lead to dyspeptic symptoms via macrophage-mediated duodenal inflammation.

BACKGROUND:Apoptosis of islet cel s is closely related to the long-term hyperglycemia-and hyperlipemia-induced injuries. OBJECTIVE:To observe the effect of Shizidaiping formula on the apoptosis and insulin secretion in MIN6 cel s under the high glucose and lipid environment, and to explore the protective effect of Shizidaiping formula and the related apoptosis mechanism. METHODS:MIN6 cel s were divided into normal, model, melbine, low-, medium-and high-dose Shizidaiping formula groups. The cel activity was examined by cel counting kit-8, the insulin secretion was measured by ELISA, the rate of apoptosis was measured by Annexin V-FITC&PI and the expression levels of MEK1/2, ERK1/2 and p-ERK1/2 were examined by western blot assay. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Shizidaiping formula significantly improved MIN6 cel activity under high glucose and lipid condition (P<0.05), decreased early cel apoptosis, increased the level of insulin stimulated by low glucose in cel supernatant (P<0.05), and improved the expression levels of MEK1/2, ERK1/2 and p-ERK1/2 (P<0.05). These results suggest that Shizidaiping formula can protect islet cel s from hyperglycemia and hyperlipemia damage by improving the activity of MIN6 cel s, reducing the insulin secretion and inhibiting the apoptosis of pancreaticβcel s in MIN6 cel s.
