Objective To investigate the application value of single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP)linkage analysis based on next-generation sequencing(NGS)technology in preimplantation genetic testing(PGT)of families with autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease(ARPKD).Methods A family with ARPKD was selected,where the female member had a pregnancy ultrasound revealing polycystic kidney in the fetus.Genetic testing showed compound heterozygous mutations of the polycystic kidney/polycystic liver disease 1 gene(PKHD1),c.10444C>T(paternal)and c.4303del(maternal),with the c.4303del mutation being reported for the first time.Targeting the coding region of the PKHD1 gene,335 high-density tightly linked SNP sites were selected in the upstream and downstream 2M regions using multiplex polymerase chain reaction(PCR)and NGS.The couple′s SNP risk haplotypes carrying gene mutations were constructed.After in vitro fertilization,blastocyst culture was performed.Trophoblastic cells obtained from the biopsy were subjected to whole-genome amplification,and NGS was used for linkage analysis and low-depth chromosomal aneuploidy screening of the embryos.Sanger sequencing was used to verify the results of embryo linkage analysis.Results Among the 6 biopsied embryos,4 were mutation-free and euploid,1 exhibited heterozygous for the mutation and mosaic while another unstable sequencing data,making it impossible to judge.One of the mutation-free and developmentally healthy euploid embryos was implanted into the maternal uterus,resulting in the full-term delivery of a healthy baby.Conclusion Application of NGS-based SNP linkage analysis in PGT can effectively blocking the vertical transmission of ARPKD within families,while avoiding abortion issues caused by aneuploid embryos.This study is also the first PGT report target-ing the PKHD1 gene c.4303del mutation.

Objective:To analyze the international status and level of clinical trial quality in China, and explore the advantages and value of scientific regulation of clinical research quality in China.Methods:The data is sourced from the relevant reports publicly released by the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA), the inspection reports and announcements published by the Center for Food and Drug Inspection of the NMPA, the inspection data displayed on the official website of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), as well as clinical diagnosis and treatment guidelines issued by the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) of United States and the Chinese Society of Clinical Oncology (CSCO) (data as of July 21, 2023). This data provides an analysis of the regulatory status of the implementation of clinical drug trials in China, inspection data, and the approval and market entry of new oncology drugs and feedback from their practical application.Results:The clinical trial quality inspection systems of China and the United States are generally aligned, with similar inspection subjects, focus areas, and public disclosure pathways. However, each has its characteristics in terms of inspection targets and types. The quality of clinical trial data in China has been continuously improving. Between 2009-2015 and 2016-July 2023, China underwent 25 and 20 FDA Bioresearch Monitoring (BIMO) inspections, respectively. The inspection results showing "No Action Indicated" (NAI) improved from 48.0% to 85.0%, while "Voluntary Action Indicated" (VAI) decreased from 44.0% to 15.0%. Official Action Indicated (OAI) measures were required in 2009 and 2012. Compared to the 2009-2015 period, there has been a clear upward trend in the quality of clinical trial data since 2016. From 2016 to July 2023, the number of new oncology drugs developed by Chinese pharmaceutical companies and included in professional guidelines has steadily increased. Specifically, 37 drugs (58.7%) were included in the 2022 edition of the CSCO guidelines, and 15 drugs (23.8%) were included in the 2023 edition of the NCCN guidelines, with 10 of these drugs featured in both guidelines.Conclusions:The implementation quality of clinical trials in China has gained a certain level of international recognition and competitiveness. This progress is attributed to national macro-level guidance, a unique institutional model, and clinical practices aligned with international standards. In the future, it will be necessary to further strengthen the scientific regulatory system and enhance clinical research capabilities to continue advancing the high-quality development of clinical trials.

Femoral neck fracture (FNF) in the elderly patients is currently a major health challenge worldwide, with excessive consumption of medical resources, high incidence of complications as well as suboptimal outcome and prognosis. Hip joint arthroplasty (HJA) has been the mainstream treatment for FNF in the elderly, but the conventional surgical approaches and techniques are still confronted with a series of bottlenecks such as dislocation, limp and limb length discrepancy. In recent years, direct anterior approach (DAA) for HJA (DAA-HJA) has been a major new choice in the field of joint replacement, which achieves improved clinical effectiveness of HJA in the treatment of elderly FNF, due to the fact that DAA approach involves the neuromuscular interface and accords with the idea of soft tissue retention and enhanced recovery after surgery. However, there is still a lack of unified understanding of standard technique and procedure of DAA-HJA in the treatment of elderly FNF. Therefore, relevant experts from the Hip Joint Group of Chinese Orthopedics Association of Chinese Medical Association, Youth Arthrology Group of Orthopedic Committee of PLA, Orthopedic Committee of Chongqing Medical Association, Branch of Orthopedic Surgeons of Chongqing Medical Doctor Association and Sport Medicine Committee of Chongqing Medical Association were organized to formulate the " Chinese expert consensus on the technical standard of direct anterior hip arthroplasty for elderly femoral neck fracture ( version 2023)" based on evidence-based medicine. This consensus mainly proposed 13 recommendations covering indications, surgical plans, prosthesis selections, surgical techniques and processes, and postoperative management of DAA-HJA in elderly patients with FNF, aiming to promote standardized, systematic and patient-specific diagnosis and treatment to improve the functional prognosis of the patients.
