Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of recombinant human anti-severe acute respiratory syn-drome coronavirus 2(anti-SARS-CoV-2)monoclonal antibody injection(F61 injection)in the treatment of patients with coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)combined with renal damage.Methods Patients with COVID-19 and renal damage who visited the PLA General Hospital from January to February 2023 were selected.Subjects were randomly divided into two groups.Control group was treated with conventional anti-COVID-19 therapy,while trial group was treated with conventional anti-COVID-19 therapy combined with F61 injection.A 15-day follow-up was conducted after drug administration.Clinical symptoms,laboratory tests,electrocardiogram,and chest CT of pa-tients were performed to analyze the efficacy and safety of F61 injection.Results Twelve subjects(7 in trial group and 5 in control group)were included in study.Neither group had any clinical progression or death cases.The ave-rage time for negative conversion of nucleic acid of SARS-CoV-2 in control group and trial group were 3.2 days and 1.57 days(P=0.046),respectively.The scores of COVID-19 related target symptom in the trial group on the 3rd and 5th day after medication were both lower than those of the control group(both P＜0.05).According to the clinical staging and World Health Organization 10-point graded disease progression scale,both groups of subjects improved but didn't show statistical differences(P＞0.05).For safety,trial group didn't present any infusion-re-lated adverse event.Subjects in both groups demonstrated varying degrees of elevated blood glucose,elevated urine glucose,elevated urobilinogen,positive urine casts,and cardiac arrhythmia,but the differences were not statistica-lly significant(all P＞0.05).Conclusion F61 injection has initially demonstrated safety and clinical benefit in trea-ting patients with COVID-19 combined with renal damage.As the domestically produced drug,it has good clinical accessibility and may provide more options for clinical practice.

Transcatheter aortic valve replacement(TAVR)has become one of the effective methods for treating patients with aortic valve disease.With the continuous maturity of technology,innovation of instruments and increasing experience,the indications for TAVR has been expanded.Following international trends,the number of TAVR in China has steadily increased with each passing year.In 2023,the long-term follow-up results of TAVR in low-risk AS patients further confirm the long-term benefits of TAVR.The relevant research on TAVR for patients with aortic regurgitation and patients with bicuspid aortic stenosis provide evidence support for the expansion of TAVR indications.At the same time,the development of valve devices and new technological innovations are emerging in an endless stream,and the new concept of full life cycle management is increasingly being valued.Especially in China,the development of local devices is progressing rapidly,and multiple devices have entered the clinical research stage.The clinical manifestations and research results are worth pursuing.

Objective To explore the predictive value of novel anthropometric indicators for the long-term prognosis in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI).Methods A total of 712 patients diagnosed with AMI in the People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region from January 2018 to December 2019 were selected as research subjects,and divided into an event group and a non-event group according to whether major cardiovascular adverse events(MACEs)occurred during the period of follow-up.Gensini score was used to quanti-tatively assess the degree of coronary artery stenosis.Spearman correlation analysis was used to explore the correla-tion between the new anthropometric indicators and Gensini score.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to evaluate the ability of new anthropometric indicators to predict MACEs,and the patients were grouped according to the optimal cut-off value.Kaplan-Meier curve was used to analyze the survival difference between the groups.Multivariate Cox regression was used to analyze the independent risk factors of MACEs.Results During a median follow-up of 27(20,39)months,a total of 125 patients developed MACEs.As compared with those in the non-event group,the patients in the event group had a higher proportion of hypertension,diabetes and abdominal obesity,higher HbA1c and FBG levels,and longer body weight and waist circumference.The LAP index,CMI index,BRI index and Gensini score were significantly increased,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Spearman correlation analysis showed that LAP index,CMI index and BRI index were positively corre-lated with Gensini score(r=0.233,0.126,0.272,P<0.001).ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC of LAP index,CMI index,VAI index,BRI index and ABSI index were 0.745,0.640,0.490,0.874 and 0.506 respec-tively;Kaplan-Meier curve analysis showed that the cumulative incidence of MACEs in LAP index,CMI index and BRI index was significantly increased in the high-value group(Log-rank test,P＜0.05).The results of multivariate Cox regression analysis after adjusting confounding showed that CMI index(HR=1.430,95%CI:1.049～1.952,P=0.024)and BRI index(HR=1.332,95%CI:1.234～1.439,P＜0.001)were independent risk factors for MACEs.Conclusions CMI index and BRI index of new anthropometric indicators are independent risk factors for long-term prognosis in patients with AMI.

Background::Breast cancer (BC) risk-stratification tools for Asian women that are highly accurate and can provide improved interpretation ability are lacking. We aimed to develop risk-stratification models to predict long- and short-term BC risk among Chinese women and to simultaneously rank potential non-experimental risk factors.Methods::The Breast Cancer Cohort Study in Chinese Women, a large ongoing prospective dynamic cohort study, includes 122,058 women aged 25-70 years old from the eastern part of China. We developed multiple machine-learning risk prediction models using parametric models (penalized logistic regression, bootstrap, and ensemble learning), which were the short-term ensemble penalized logistic regression (EPLR) risk prediction model and the ensemble penalized long-term (EPLT) risk prediction model to estimate BC risk. The models were assessed based on calibration and discrimination, and following this assessment, they were externally validated in new study participants from 2017 to 2020.Results::The AUC values of the short-term EPLR risk prediction model were 0.800 for the internal validation and 0.751 for the external validation set. For the long-term EPLT risk prediction model, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.692 and 0.760 in internal and external validations, respectively. The net reclassification improvement index of the EPLT relative to the Gail and the Han Chinese Breast Cancer Prediction Model (HCBCP) models for external validation was 0.193 and 0.233, respectively, indicating that the EPLT model has higher classification accuracy.Conclusions::We developed the EPLR and EPLT models to screen populations with a high risk of developing BC. These can serve as useful tools to aid in risk-stratified screening and BC prevention.

Chronic kidney disease(CKD)commonly used dietary assessments including 24-hour dietary recall(24 h DR)/3-day dietary recall(3DDR),food frequency questionnaire(FFQ),dietary records,and estimation of dietary protein intake based on nitrogen balance.Given the high prevalence of CKD patients in Asian population and the scarcity of research using FFQ method,it is crucial to develop an FFQ suitable for Chinese CKD patients.This review summarizes the advantages and disadvantages of dietary assessment methods for CKD,the current research status,and the content and steps involved in establishing an FFQ,with the aim of providing reference for the modification of FFQ for Chinese CKD patients.

The use of vasoactive medications makes enteral nutrition decisions more challenging for these patients. This review systematically examines the pathophysiological effects of vasoactive medications on gastrointestinal tract of critically ill patients,the current value and safety of enteral nutrition in this patient's population,summarizes the optimal strategies for implementing enteral nutrition in these patients for clinical reference.

Objective This study aimed to investigate the potential relationship between urinary metals copper (Cu), arsenic (As), strontium (Sr), barium (Ba), iron (Fe), lead (Pb) and manganese (Mn) and grip strength. Methods We used linear regression models, quantile g-computation and Bayesian kernel machine regression (BKMR) to assess the relationship between metals and grip strength.Results In the multimetal linear regression, Cu (β=-2.119), As (β=-1.318), Sr (β=-2.480), Ba (β=0.781), Fe (β= 1.130) and Mn (β=-0.404) were significantly correlated with grip strength (P < 0.05). The results of the quantile g-computation showed that the risk of occurrence of grip strength reduction was -1.007 (95％ confidence interval:-1.362, -0.652; P < 0.001) when each quartile of the mixture of the seven metals was increased. Bayesian kernel function regression model analysis showed that mixtures of the seven metals had a negative overall effect on grip strength, with Cu, As and Sr being negatively associated with grip strength levels. In the total population, potential interactions were observed between As and Mn and between Cu and Mn (Pinteractions of 0.003 and 0.018, respectively).Conclusion In summary, this study suggests that combined exposure to metal mixtures is negatively associated with grip strength. Cu, Sr and As were negatively correlated with grip strength levels, and there were potential interactions between As and Mn and between Cu and Mn.

【Objective】 To investigate the correlation between heart rate variability (HRV) and the degree of nervousness before blood donation. 【Methods】 The psychological state of 253 blood donors before blood donation was assessed by the self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and the degree of nervousness and their HRV were measured. The correlation between the SAS score, the degree of nervousness and the HRV parameters was analyzed, and the differences were compared among different types of donors by multivariate linear regression. 【Results】 A total of 247 blood donors were included in the study. Five HRV parameters in blood donors aged 18-24 were higher than in those aged 25 years and above(all P<0.05), and the anxiety level was higher in female donors(SAS score 41-46) than in males(SAS score 35-43)(P<0.001); the pre-donation SAS score was consistent with the assessment of the tension level (r=0.970, P<0.001); the pre-donation tension level and the SAS score were all significantly negatively correlated with VLF in HRV parameters(r=0.179, P=0.005), and the associations were independent of confounders such as age, body mass index and gender (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Compared with SAS and tension assessment, HRV is more objective, and can be used as one of the tests for assessing the tension level of blood donors. The inclusion of HRV in the routine screening of blood donors deserves further study for its application in assessing the anxiety level of blood donors before blood donation, identifying people prone to blood donation-related vasovagal reaction (DRVR), preventing and reducing the risk of DRVR, and improving the safety of blood donation.
