Objective To mine and analyze the adverse event data of polatuzumab vedotin(Pola)and fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan-nxki(T-Dxd),so as to provide reference for clinical medication safety.Methods The adverse events reported from January 1,2004 to June 7,2023 were extracted based on openFDA database.The suspicious risk signals were screened by the Open Vigil 2.1 data platform and ranked by signal strength and frequency of occurrence;then ADEs were classified by reference to the MedDRA 26.0.Results A total of 7 164 and 22 870 ADE reports related to Pola and T-Dxd were obtained,and 104 and 95 suspicious ADE signals were detected,respectively.According to the signal intensity,cytomegalovirus enterocolitis(ROR=416.94)for Pola and interstitial lung disease[reporting odds ratio(ROR)=82.55]for T-Dxd ranked first,both of which were recorded in the drug instructions.According to the frequency of occurrence,the two drugs were most frequently associated with death(n=111)and nausea(n=285),respectively.The risk of Pola was associated with 12 systems/organs,of which 26 risk signals were not documented in the drug instruction,and the risk of T-Dxd was associated with 13 systems/organs,of which 18 risk signals were not documented in the drug instruction.Conclusion By tapping the ADE after real-world administration of Pola and T-Dxd,physicians are prompted to pay attention to the risk of adverse reactions in clinical use and actively take preventive and therapeutic measures to ensure the safety of patients'medication.

ObjectiveTo explore the syndrome elements and evolving patterns of patients with hepatitis B virus-related acute on chronic liver failure （HBV-ACLF） at different stages. MethodsClinical information of 1,058 hospitalized HBV-ACLF patients， including 618 in the early stage， 355 in the middle stage， and 85 in the late stage， were collected from 18 clinical centers across 12 regions nationwide from January 1， 2012 to February 28， 2015. The “Hepatitis B-related Chronic and Acute Liver Failure Chinese Medicine Clinical Questionnaire” were designed to investigate the basic information of the patients， like the four diagnostic information （including symptoms， tongue， pulse） of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM）， and to count the frequency of the appearance of the four diagnostic information. Factor analysis and cluster analysis were employed to determine and statistically analyze the syndrome elements and patterns of HBV-ACLF patients at different stages. ResultsThere were 76 four diagnostic information from 1058 HBV-ACLF patients， and 53 four diagnostic information with a frequency of occurrence ≥ 5% were used as factor analysis entries， including 36 symptom information， 12 tongue information， and 5 pulse information. Four types of TCM patterns were identified in HBV-ACLF， which were liver-gallbladder damp-heat pattern， qi deficiency and blood stasis pattern， liver-kidney yin deficiency pattern， and spleen-kidney yang-deficiency pattern. In the early stage， heat （39.4%， 359/912） and dampness （27.5%， 251/912） were most common， and the pattern of the disease was dominated by liver-gallbladder damp-heat pattern （74.6%， 461/618）； in the middle stage， dampness （30.2%， 187/619） and blood stasis （20.7%， 128/619） were most common， and the patterns of the disease were dominated by liver-gallbladder damp-heat pattern （53.2%， 189/355）， and qi deficiency and blood stasis pattern （27.6%， 98/355）； and in the late stage， the pattern of the disease was dominated by qi deficiency （26.3%， 40/152） and yin deficiency （20.4%， 31/152）， and the patterns were dominated by qi deficiency and blood stasis pattern （36.5%， 31/85）， and liver-gallbladder damp-heat pattern （25.9%， 22/85）. ConclusionThere are significant differences in the distribution of syndrome elements and patterns at different stages of HBV-ACLF， presenting an overall trend of evolving patterns as "from excess to deficiency， transforming from excess to deficiency"， which is damp-heat → blood stasis → qi-blood yin-yang deficiency.

DNA is a biological polymer that encodes and stores genetic information in all living organism. Particularly, the precise nucleobase pairing inside DNA is exploited for the self-assembling of nanostructures with defined size, shape and functionality. These DNA nanostructures are known as framework nucleic acids (FNAs) for their skeleton-like features. Recently, FNAs have been explored in various fields ranging from physics, chemistry to biology. In this review, we mainly focus on the recent progress of FNAs in a pharmaceutical perspective. We summarize the advantages and applications of FNAs for drug discovery, drug delivery and drug analysis. We further discuss the drawbacks of FNAs and provide an outlook on the pharmaceutical research direction of FNAs in the future.

Objective:To summarize the ultrasound manifestations of submucosal cleft palate, and explore the diagnostic value of prenatal ultrasound for submucosal cleft palate.Methods:A total of 21 146 pregnant women who underwent fetal ultrasound examination in the second and third trimesters in the Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from January 2013 to May 2018 were collected. They were all singleton pregnancy. The ultrasound image which was the horizontal plate of the palatine bone at the posterior border of the fetal hard palate was routinely obtained. The presence of bone loss at the posterior border of the hard palate was defined as a positive case. Then the palate targeted ultrasound examinations of the positive cases were performed to observe the continuity of the soft palate. The ultrasound images of positive cases were compared with the results of induction or delivery, and their postpartum diagnosis and treatment were tracked.Results:A total of 44 simple cleft palate were detected in 21 146 fetuses, including 23 dominant cleft palate and 21 submucosal cleft palate. Two cases of 21 submucosal cleft palate were induced because of other deformities, the other 19 cases were born. The follow-up of the 19 submucosal cleft palate cases showed that 15 cases visited to stomatology department before 3 years of age, and 2 cases of newborns with dominant cleft palate were misdiagnosed as submucosal cleft palate by prenatal ultrasound, and the other13 of them were clinically diagnosed as submucosal cleft palate. The ultrasound of the submucosal cleft palate showed there was no inverted "V" -shaped bone in the posterior edge of the hard palate which was connected by a membranous connection, and the soft palate was complete, but the center of soft palate was thinner or even present membranous hyperechoic in ultrasound.Conclusions:Submucosal cleft palate has characteristic ultrasound features, and prenatal ultrasound make a diagnosis and provide some basis for obtaining early diagnosis and treatment after birth.

Stimulator of interferon genes (STING) is a cytosolic DNA sensor which is regarded as a potential target for antitumor immunotherapy. However, clinical trials of STING agonists display limited anti-tumor effects and dose-dependent side-effects like inflammatory damage and cell toxicity. Here, we showed that tetrahedral DNA nanostructures (TDNs) actively enter macrophages to promote STING activation and M1 polarization in a size-dependent manner, and synergized with Mn²⁺ to enhance the expressions of IFN-β and iNOS, as well as the co-stimulatory molecules for antigen presentation. Moreover, to reduce the cytotoxicity of Mn²⁺, we constructed a TDN-MnO₂ complex and found that it displayed a much higher efficacy than TDN plus Mn²⁺ to initiate macrophage activation and anti-tumor response both in vitro and in vivo. Together, our studies explored a novel immune activation effect of TDN in cancer therapy and its synergistic therapeutic outcomes with MnO₂. These findings provide new therapeutic opportunities for cancer therapy.

OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to assess the associations between maternal drug use, cytochrome P450 ( CYP450) genetic polymorphisms, and their interactions with the risk of congenital heart defects (CHDs) in offspring. METHODS: A case-control study involving 569 mothers of CHD cases and 652 controls was conducted from November 2017 to January 2020. RESULTS: After adjusting for potential confounding factors, the results show that mothers who used ovulatory drugs (adjusted odds ratio [a OR] = 2.12; 95% confidence interval [ CI]: 1.08-4.16), antidepressants (a OR = 2.56; 95% CI: 1.36-4.82), antiabortifacients (a OR = 1.55; 95% CI: 1.00-2.40), or traditional Chinese drugs (a OR = 1.97; 95% CI: 1.26-3.09) during pregnancy were at a significantly higher risk of CHDs in offspring. Maternal CYP450 genetic polymorphisms at rs1065852 (A/T vs. A/A: OR = 1.53, 95% CI: 1.10-2.14; T/T vs. A/A: OR = 1.57, 95% CI: 1.07-2.31) and rs16947 (G/G vs. C/C: OR = 3.41, 95% CI: 1.82-6.39) were also significantly associated with the risk of CHDs in offspring. Additionally, significant interactions were observed between the CYP450genetic variants and drug use on the development of CHDs. CONCLUSIONS In those of Chinese descent, ovulatory drugs, antidepressants, antiabortifacients, and traditional Chinese medicines may be associated with the risk of CHDs in offspring. Maternal CYP450 genes may regulate the effects of maternal drug exposure on fetal heart development.

ObjectiveTo explore the carcinogenic mechanism of Campylobacter jejuni. MethodsEighteen female C57BL/6 Apc^Min/+ mice were randomly divided into the C. jejuni-infected group and the non-infection control group， each group with nine mice. Colorectal cancer of Apc^Min/+ mice was induced by dextran sulfate sodium and gavage of C. jejuni （or PBS as a control）. At the end of the experiment， the number of tumors in colorectal tissues of mice in each group was counted， and RNA was extracted from colorectal tumors， along with para-cancer tissues as controls. Transcriptome sequencing was performed by RNA-Seq technology， and data were analyzed for differentially expressed genes （DEGs）. Further， selected DEGs were subjected to GO （gene ontology） enrichment analysis and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis. ResultsCompared with that of the non-infection control group， the incidence of tumor in C. jejuni-infected group was significantly higher （P < 0.01）， which indicated the success of recreating the C. jejuni-induced CRC model. RNA-seq results showed that there were 394 and 501 DEGs （fold change > 4 and P < 0.05） in the C. jejuni-infected group compared with the two control groups， respectively. In GO enrichment analysis， DEGs were mainly enriched in immune response regulation and activation pathways， multiple protein transport pathways and receptor binding pathways. Cancer-related pathways and metabolic pathways were significant enriched in KEGG pathway enrichment analysis. Among these DEGs， 17 genes were found in comparisons with both control groups. The 17 genes were further selected， resulting in 14 “core” DEGs. In further validation of qRT-PCR， 9 genes were significantly differentially expressed， among which 3 genes were up-regulated （Gm1987， Saxo1 and Plekhs1） and 6 were down-regulated （Lrp2， Serpina3c， Fabp4， Tmem52， Lrrn4 and Upk3b）. ConclusionThis study emphasizes 9 host genes that may play important and unique roles in the occurrence and development of colorectal cancer induced by C. jejuni， which provides new insights for further studies on the carcinogenic mechanism of C. jejuni.

Objective: To establish a survival prediction model based on the independent prognostic factors of long-term prognosis after laparoscopic liver resection(LLR) for intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma(ICC). Methods: The clinical and pathological data of 351 consecutive patients with ICC who received radical LLR in 13 Chinese medical centers from August 2010 to May 2021 were collected retrospectively. There were 190 males and 161 females,aged(M(IQR)) 61(14)years(range:23 to 93 years). The total cohort was randomly divided into a training dataset(264 cases) and a validation dataset(87 cases). The patients were followed up by outpatient service or telephone,and the deadline for follow-up was October 2021. Based on the training dataset,the multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to screen the independent influencing factors of long-term prognosis to construct a Nomogram model. The Nomogram model's discrimination,calibration,and clinical benefit were evaluated through internal and external validation,and an assessment of the overall value of two groups was made through the use of a receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve. Results: There was no significant difference in clinical and pathological characteristics and long-term survival results between the training and validation datasets(all P>0.05). The multivariate Cox analysis showed that CA19-9,CA125,conversion to laparotomy during laparoscopic surgery,and lymph node metastasis were independent prognostic factors for ICC patients after LLR(all P<0.05). The survival Nomogram was established based on the independent prognostic factors obtained from the above screening. The ROC curve showed that the area under the curve of 1, 3 and 5-year overall survival rates of patients in the training dataset were 0.794(95%CI:0.721 to 0.867),0.728(95%CI:0.618 to 0.839) and 0.799(95%CI:0.670 to 0.928),and those in the validation dataset were 0.787(95%CI:0.660 to 0.915),0.831(95%CI:0.678 to 0.983) and 0.810(95%CI:0.639 to 0.982). Internal and external validation proved that the model exhibited a certain discrimination,calibration,and clinical applicability. Conclusion: The survival Nomogram model based on the independent influencing factors of long-term prognosis after LLR for ICC(including CA19-9,CA125,conversion to laparotomy during laparoscopic surgery,and lymph node metastasis) exhibites a certain differentiation,calibration,and clinical practicability.
