Background::There is a need for effective and safe therapies for psoriasis that provide sustained benefits. The aim of this study was to assess the efficacy and safety of tildrakizumab, an anti-interleukin-23p19 monoclonal antibody, for treating moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis in Chinese patients.Methods::In this multi-center, double-blind, phase III trial, patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis were enrolled and randomly assigned (1:1) to receive subcutaneous tildrakizumab 100 mg or placebo at weeks 0 and 4. Patients initially assigned to placebo were switched to receive tildrakizumab at weeks 12, 16, and every 12 weeks thereafter. Patients in the tildrakizumab group continued with tildrakizumab at week 16, and every 12 weeks until week 52. The primary endpoint was the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI 75) response rate at week 12.Results::At week 12, tildrakizumab demonstrated significantly higher PASI 75 response rates (66.4% [73/110] vs. 12.7% [14/110]; difference, 51.4% [95% confidence interval (CI), 40.72, 62.13]; P <0.001) and Physician’s Global Assessment (60.9% [67/110] vs. 10.0% [11/110]; difference, 49.1% [95% CI, 38.64, 59.62]; P <0.001) compared to placebo. PASI 75 response continued to improve over time in both tildrakizumab and placebo-switching to tildrakizumab groups, reaching maximal efficacy after 28 weeks (86.8% [92/106] vs. 82.4% [89/108]) and maintained up to 52 weeks (91.3% [95/104] vs. 87.4% [90/103]). Most treatment-emergent adverse events were mild and not related to tildrakizumab. Conclusion::Tildrakizumab demonstrated durable efficacy through week 52 and was well tolerated in Chinese patients with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis.Trial registration::ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT05108766.

Hip fractures are among the most common fractures in the elderly, presenting to be a leading cause of disability and mortality. Surgical treatment is currently the main treatment method for hip fractures. The incidence of perioperative malnutrition is increased after hip fractures in the elderly due to the comorbidities, decreased basal metabolic rate, accelerated protein breakdown, weakened anabolism and surgical stress. However, malnutrition not only increases the incidence of postoperative complications, but also leads to increased mortality, indicating an important role of perioperative nursing management of nutrition for the elderly patients with hip fractures. At present, there still lacks scientific guidance and application standards on perioperative nursing management of nutrition for the elderly patients with hip fractures. Therefore, the Orthopedic Nursing Committee of Chinese Nursing Association and the Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate the Expert consensus on perioperative nursing management of nutrition for elderly patients with hip fractures ( version 2023) according to evidence-based medical evidences and their clinical experiences. Fourteen recommendations were made from aspects of nutrition screening, nutrition assessment, nutrition diagnosis, nutrition intervention and nutrition monitoring to provide guidance for perioperative nursing management of nutrition in elderly patients with hip fractures.

Objective Our preliminary study demonstrates that quercetin can inhibit the proliferation of HL-60 cells. This sudy aimed to find some drugs which could have synergistic effects with quercetin on apoptosis of HL-60 cells. Methods HL-60 cells were cultured with bortezomib at different concentrations (1, 2, 4, 8, 16, and 32μmol/L) alone or combined with quercetin at different concentrations for 48 h. HL-60 cells were cultured with lenalidomide at different concentrations (5, 10, 20, 40, 80, 160, and 320 μmol/L) alone or in combination with quercetin at different concentrations for 48 h. The CCK-8 assay was used to determine the effects on proliferation of HL-60 cells. Results Bortezomib significantly inhibited the proliferation of HL-60 cells (P<0.01). IC50 of quercetin was 49.24μmol/L after cells treated by quercetin combined with bortezomib, which was 13.44μmol/L lower than that treated by quercetin alone. Isobolographic analysis revealed the two drugs had synergistic effect. The results of cell viability of HL-60 cells treated by lenalidomide at lower concentrations (5, 10, 20, 40, and 80μmol/L)were not different from those of the control group (P > 0.05). The results of cell viability of HL-60 cells treated by lenalidomide at higher concentrations (160 and 320μmol/L) were lower than those of the control group (P<0.05). IC50 of quercetin after cells treated by quercetin combined with bortezomib was not different from that treated by quercetin alone. Isobolographic analysis revealed the two drugs had no synergistic effect. Conclusions Bortezomib can inhibit the proliferation of HL-60 cells and it has a synergistic effect with quercetin on HL-60 cells. Lenalidomide has a weaker role in inhibition of the proliferation of HL-60 cells, and it has no synergistic effect with quercetin on HL-60 cells.

Objectiye To investigate the effect of selective COX-2 inhibitor, nimesulide, on inhibiting proliferation of the human acute myeloid leukemia HL-60 cells. Methods HL-60 cells were treated with different concentration of nimesulide. HL-60 cell proliferation was examined by CCK-8 method. Flow cytometry, Western blotting and ELISA were used to measure the effect of nimesulide on apoptosis, cell cycle,COX-2, PGE2, bax, bcl-2 and c-myc. Results Nimesulide inhibited HL-60 cells proliferation in a dose and time dependence manner. Nimesulide induced cell apoptosis and arrested cell cycle in G0-G1 phase. The expression of COX-2 protein declined after treated with nimesulide 48 h, the total apoptosis in 100, 200,400 μmol/L nimesulide-treated group and control group were (24.97 ± 6.36) %, (34.22 ± 5.76) %, (44.59 ±6.69) % and (4.11 ± 1.26) %, there were significant differences (P < 0.05). Nimesulide inhibited the synthesis of PGE2, the expressions of bcl-2 and c-myc protein and upregulated the expression of bax protein simultaneity.Conclusion Nimesulide significantly inhibited the proliferation of HL-60 cells and induced cell apoptosis,which may be associated with the downregulation of COX-2 expression, reduction of PGE2 synthesis, arrest of cell cycle and regulation bcl-2, c-myc and bax protein expression.

Objective To explore the correlation of atheroselerosis progression and the expression of platelet derived endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) in rabbits. Methods A total of 24 male New Zealand white rabbits were used in this study. Six of the animals were fed with normal food (control group). Eighteen rabbits were fed with cholesterol-rich food (1 g/d) for 12 weeks to establish the atherosclerosis model. Among 18 models, 6 rabbits were executed immediately and their aorta and platelet samples were collected for further analysis (model group), 6 rabbits were orally administered with pravastatin (10 rag/d) for additional 12 weeks (treated group), and the remaining 6 rabbits were left untreated until the end of the study (untreated group). The control, treated and untreated animals were then killed, and the aorta and platelet samples were collected for eNOS expression analysis (RT-PCR). Results The aorta samples in model and untreated group exhibited rough intima and a lot of longitudinal fatty streaks, which indicated that atherosclerosis models were established successfully. While in treated group, the degree of atherosclerosis was decreased. The average percent of thickness of fatty streaks or atheroselerotic plaques relative to the whole thickness of vessel walls was 0. 04±0. 02, 0. 82±0. 16, 0. 33±0. 18,0. 77±0. 14 in control, model, treated and untreated group, respectively. The thickness of fatty streaks or atherosclerotic plaques was significantly increased in the model and untreated groups and decreased in treated group compared with the control group (both P<0. 05). The expressions of platelet derived eNOS/mRNA were 1. 02± 0. 28, 0. 41± 0. 27, 1.00 ± 0. 77, 0. 40±0. 29 in control, model, treated and untreated group, respectively. The expression of eNOS/mRNA was markedly decreased in model group and untreated group compared with the control group, but was increased in treated group compared with untreated and model groups (F=3. 544, P = 0. 024). Conclusions There is a negative correlation between eNOS expression and atherosclerosis development, which suggests that the reversal effect of pravastatin on atheroselerosis progression and plaque formation may relate to the expression of platelet derived eNOS.
