BACKGROUND:Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation is an important treatment for malignant hematological diseases,and delayed postoperative platelet implantation is a common complication that seriously affects the quality of patient survival;however,there are no standard protocols to improve platelet implantation rates and prevent platelet implantation delays. OBJECTIVE:To compare the safety and efficacy of oral Herombopag Olamine versus subcutaneous recombinant human thrombopoietin for promoting platelet implantation in patients with malignant hematological diseases undergoing haploid hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. METHODS:Clinical data of 163 patients with malignant hematological diseases who underwent haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation from January 2016 to October 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.A total of 72 patients who started to subcutaneously inject recombinant human thrombopoietin at+2 days were categorized into the recombinant human thrombopoietin group;a total of 27 patients who started to orally take Herombopag Olamine at+2 days were categorized into the Herombopag Olamine group;and 64 patients who did not apply Herombopag Olamine or recombinant human thrombopoietin were categorized into the blank control group.The implantation status,incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease of degree II-IV within 100 days,1-year survival rate,1-year recurrence rate,and safety were analyzed in the three groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The average follow-up time was 52(12-87)months.The implantation time of neutrophils in the blank control group,recombinant human thrombopoietin group,and Herombopag Olamine group was(12.95±3.88)days,(14.04±3.71)days,and(13.89±2.74)days,respectively,with no statistically significant difference(P=0.352);the implantation time of platelets was(15.16±6.27)days,(17.67±6.52)days,and(17.00±4.75)days,with no statistically significant difference(P=0.287).(2)The complete platelet implantation rate on day 60 was 64.06%,90.28%,and 92.59%,respectively,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.001).The subgroup analysis showed that the difference between the blank control group and the recombinant human thrombopoietin group was statistically significant(P<0.001),and the difference between the blank control group and the Herombopag Olamine group was statistically significant(P=0.004).The difference was not statistically significant between the recombinant human thrombopoietin group and Herombopag Olamine group(P=0.535).(3)100-day II-IV degree acute graft-versus-host disease incidence in the blank control group,recombinant human thrombopoietin group,and Herombopag Olamine group were 25.00%,30.56%,and 25.93%,respectively,and the difference was not statistically significant(P=0.752).(4)The incidence of cytomegalovirus anemia,cytomegalovirus pneumonia,and hepatic function injury had no statistical difference among the three groups(P>0.05).(5)During the follow-up period,there was no thrombotic event in any of the three groups of patients.(6)The results showed that recombinant human thrombopoietin and Herombopag Olamine could improve the platelet implantation rate of malignant hematological disease patients after haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation,with comparable efficacy and good safety.

The activation of the P2X7 receptor as an ATP-gated ion channel,triggers the release of pro-inflammato-ry cytokines in tumor carring individuals and stimulate excitation of injury-causing neurons,thereby exacerbating the transmission of pain.In preclinical cancer pain models,it has the potential to serve as a new therapeutic target for cancer pain management.

OBJECTIVE:To systematically evaluate the efficacy of rehabilitation exoskeleton robots on the lower limb motor function of stroke patients using Meta-analysis and to compare the efficacy of different lower limb exoskeleton robots,so as to provide a theoretical basis for the scientific selection of suitable exoskeleton robots for patients with post-stroke lower limb motor dysfunction. METHODS:Computer searches of the Cochrane Library,PubMed,Web of Science,Embase,CNKI,VIP,and WanFang Data were conducted to collect randomized controlled clinical studies on exploring lower extremity rehabilitation exoskeleton robots to improve lower limb motor function in stroke patients published from database inception to November 2022.Two researchers conducted the literature search and screening.The quality of the included literature was evaluated using the Cochrane 5.1.0 risk of bias assessment tool and the Jadad scale.Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 and Stata 17.0 software. RESULTS:(1)Finally 22 publications were included,involving 865 patients(n=436 in the test group and n=429 in the control group),and the Jadad score showed that all the included articles were of high quality.(2)Meta-analysis results showed that the exoskeleton robot significantly improved the Fugl-Meyer Assessment of Lower Extremity score(mean difference[MD]=2.63,95%confidence interval[CI]:1.87-3.38,P<0.05),Berg Balance Scale score(MD=3.62,95%CI:1.21-6.03,P<0.05),Timed Up and Go score(MD=-2.77,95%CI:-4.48 to-1.05,P<0.05)and step frequency score(MD=3.15,95%CI:1.57-4.72,P<0.05)in stroke patients compared with the control group.However,there was no significant improvement in the Functional Ambulation Category Scale score(MD=0.30,95%CI:-0.01 to 0.61,P>0.05)and 6-minute walk test score(MD=3.77,95%CI:-6.60 to 14.14,P>0.05).(3)Network Meta-analysis results showed that compared with the conventional rehabilitation therapy,both the level-walking exoskeleton(MD=10.23,95%CI:3.81-27.49,P<0.05)and the body-weight support exoskeleton(MD=33.66,95%CI:11.49-98.54,P<0.05)improved the Fugl-Meyer Assessment of Lower Extremity score.Compared with the conventional rehabilitation therapy,body-weight support exoskeleton significantly improved the Berg Balance Scale scores(MD=79.86,95%CI:2.34-2 725.99,P<0.05).In terms of Fugl-Meyer Assessment of Lower Extremity and Berg Balance Scale scores,the ranking results were body-weight support exoskeleton>level-walking exoskeleton>conventional rehabilitation therapy.Compared with the conventional rehabilitation therapy,level-walking exoskeleton significantly improved the Functional Ambulation Category Scale score(MD=1.38,95%CI:1.00-1.90,P<0.05)and body-weight support exoskeleton significantly improved the Timed Up and Go score(MD=0.07,95%CI:0.01-0.51,P<0.05).In terms of Functional Ambulation Category Scale and Timed Up and Go scores,the ranking results were level-walking exoskeleton>body-weight support exoskeleton>conventional rehabilitation therapy. CONCLUSION:Rehabilitation exoskeleton robots can improve balance,walking and activities of daily living in stroke patients,with body-weight support exoskeleton being more effective in improving lower limb motor function and balance and level walking exoskeleton being more effective in improving functional walking and transfer.

Objective To explore the drug resistance mechanism and characteristics of carbopenem-resistant pseudo-monas aeruginosa(CRPA)in our hospital.Methods BD phoenix 100 automatic bacterial identification and drug sensitivity an-alyzer was used to identify and detect the drug sensitivity of the strains.The minimum inhibitory concentration(MIC)of ceftazi-dime/acibactam was detected by micro broth dilution method.The modified carbapenem inactivation method(mCIM)and colloi-dal gold immunochromatography were used to detect the carbapenemase phenotype of the strains.The whole genome sequencing was used to detect the carbapenemase resistance gene and ST typing of the screened positive strains.Results A total of 22 strains of clinically isolated CRPA were collected,of which the antibacterial drugs with the lowest resistance rate were ceftidine/avibatan(22.7% ),followed by gentamicin and amikacin(27.3% ),pyracillin/tazobactam(59.09% ),cefuroxime(63.6% ).Ceftazide and aminotransferrane(77.27% ),ciprofloxacin(86.36% ),levofloxacin(95.45% ).There are a total of 5 strains(22.7% )of carbapenems in 22 CRPA by phenotypic detection.The whole genome sequencing results show that 4 strains of ST549 CRPA carry metal β-lactamase IMP-45 and serine β-lactamase OXA-1,OXA-50,one strain is ST245 CRPA carries metal β-lactamase NDM-1,that is,all five CRPA strains produce metal β-lactamase.Conclusion The resistance rate of CRPA to ceftazidime/avibactam is low in our hospital.Carbapenemase-producing is not the main mechanism of CRPA resistance to car-bapenems,while metal β-Lactamase-producing is the main mechanism of CRPA resistance to ceftazidime avibactam.

Objective:To perform adenovirus detection and genetic evolutionary analysis on specimens from a fever outbreak in Kunming city.Methods:Pharyngeal swabs from typical febrile patients were collected and tested for nucleic acids of 30 common respiratory pathogens using TaqMan Array Card technology. The full-length sequences of three important genes of adenovirus, Penton base, Hexon and Fiber, were amplified, sequenced and typed using Nanopore high-throughput sequencing. A phylogenetic tree was constructed. Molecular variations and genetic evolution of the three genes were analyzed.Results:Five specimens were collected and all of them tested positive for adenovirus and Haemophilus influenzae. The sequences of the full-length coding regions of the Penton base, Hexon and Fiber genes were obtained by Nanopore sequencing. The homology of the three gene sequences in the five specimens was 100.0%, 99.9%-100.0% and 100.0% in nucleotide sequences, and 100.0% in amino acid sequences. The three genes in the specimens had the highest homology with those of the reference strain of human adenovirus type 3 (HAdV3, accession number: AY599834) in nucleotide sequences, which was 98.6%, 98.7% and 98.9%, respectively. Results of the phylogenetic analysis of the three genes were basically consistent. These Kunming strains were clustered into an independent clade with the reference HAdV3 strain and had a distant relationship with the strains isolated in foreign countries and Taiwan, China in the early years. They were closely related to the domestic and foreign strains in recent years and highly homologous to the 2019 Japanese strain (accession: LC703523) and the Guangzhou strain (accession: MZ540961). Compared with the reference strain, these Kunming strains had five amino acid variations in Penton base, 10 in Hexon and 11 in Fiber. Conclusions:All of the adenovirus strains isolated in this outbreak belong to P3H3F3 type based on the full-length sequences of Penton base, Hexon and Fiber genes. They share high homology with the domestic and foreign HAdV3 strains, including the reference strain. Compared with the reference strain, several amino acid mutations are identified in these Kunming strains, and most of them are in the high variability region or functional regions. M7L in the Hexon protein is an unique amino acid mutation site of Kunming strains.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of probiotics supplementation on the natural killer T cell (NKT cell) and inflammatory factors in children with sepsis and its protective effect on long-term lung function. METHODS: A total of 100 children with sepsis admitted to the department of pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) of Henan Provincial People's Hospital from March 2021 to May 2022 were selected as the research objects. The children were randomly divided into placebo group and probiotic group, 50 cases in each group. In addition to the conventional treatment, the probiotic group was given oral or nasal administration of 0.5 g probiotics, three times a day for 30 days, and the placebo group received oral placebo. 40 healthy children were selected as the healthy control group. The levels of interleukins (IL-4, IL-10), interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and immunoglobulin E (IgE), percentages of NKT cell in blood and induced sputum, lung function of the two groups of children with sepsis were measured before treatment, 7 days after treatment, and during follow-up. All these data were compared with those of healthy children. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to compare the incidence of cough varied cough (CVA) between the two septic groups. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to explore the influence of various factors on the proportion of NKT cells in induced sputum. RESULTS: In the placebo group, 2 cases died and 4 cases were lost to follow-up. In the probiotics group, 3 cases died and 5 cases were lost to follow-up. All the inflammatory factors of two groups decreased slowly after 7 day after treatment. There was no significance in the parameters of the two groups, but the levels of probiotic group declined more evidently. During the follow-up, a further decrease of inflammatory factors in probiotic group could be found, the levels of IL-4 and IL-10 were significantly different from those in the placebo group [IL-4 (ng/L): 20.3±9.3 vs. 27.6±11.9, IL-10 (ng/L): 23.1±6.8 vs. 14.4±4.4, both P < 0.05], with a significant decrease in IgE level (μg/L: 53.0±15.6 vs. 64.2±16.9, P < 0.05]. The results of flow cytometry showed that the percentage of NKT cell in peripheral blood in two septic groups decreased gradually, and the proportion of peripheral blood NKT cells in the probiotics group was significantly lower than that in the placebo group after 7 days of treatment [(4.2±0.9)% vs. (5.3±1.2)%, P < 0.05]. In the follow-up, the level of NKT cell in peripheral blood and induced sputum in probiotic group were lower than the placebo group [peripheral blood: (0.024±0.009)% vs. (0.029±0.008)%, induced sputum: (0.025±0.008)% vs. (0.035±0.01)%, both P < 0.05], which were similar to those in the healthy control group. Meanwhile, the percentage of predicted peak expiratory (PEF%) and ratio of forced expiratory volume in one second/forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC) of probiotic group were higher than those in the placebo group [PEF%: (91.3±4.8)% vs. (85.8±8.6)%, FEV1/FVC ratio: (91.8±4.7)% vs. (87.2±7.4)%, both P < 0.05]. Although there was no significance in the incidence of CVA between two septic groups according to the Kaplan-Meier curve analysis, multiple linear regression analysis showed mechanical ventilation and allergic history were the risk factors for the increase of NKT cells [β values were 0.584, 0.601, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) were 0.069 to 1.099, 0.011 to 1.192, P = 0.027, 0.046], and probiotics was an independent protective factor for the relieve of increase in NKT cells (β value was -0.984,95%CI was -1.378 to -0.591, P = 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Application of probiotics to septic children early could promote the recovery of NKT cell and inflammatory factors, and alleviate the lung function injury induced by them during follow-up, which is helpful to improve the long-term prognosis of the patients.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficacy and safety of topical Bisaitong （鼻塞通） in treating moderate-to-severe allergic rhinitis （AR）. MethodsA randomized， positive-controlled， non-inferiority clinical trial design was adopted. Totally， 108 cases of moderate-to-severe AR were randomly divided into Bisaitong group and mometasone furoate group，with 54 cases in each group. The Bisaitong group was treated with Bisaitong smeared at the nasal cavity twice a day， and the mometasone furoate group received inhalation of mometasone furoate nasal spray 100 μg in each nostril， once a day. Both groups were treated for 4 weeks and followed up after additional 4 weeks. Both groups were compared on the rhinoconjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire （RQLQ）， rhinoconjunctivitis total symptom score （RTSS）， visual analogue score （VAS） of sneezing， runny nose， nasal itching， nasal congestion degree， days of AR episodes at enrollment， after 2- and 4-week， and at follow-up. The peripheral blood eosinophil （EOS） count and percentage （EOS%）， serum eosinophil cationic protein （ECP）， serum dust mite， dermatophagoides farinae， and cockroach allergen-specific IgE （sIgE） levels were compared between groups at enrollment and after 4-week treatment. Drug overuse rate was calculated， and the safety was evaluated. The analysis of all efficacy outcomes was based on both full analysis set （FAS） and per-protocol set （PPS）. ResultsThe lower limit of the 95% confidence interval for the differences in RQLQ scores were greater than -0.6 measured after 2- and 4-week treatment and at follow-up compared to that measured at the enrollment in both groups， indicating of the Bisaitong group being non-inferior to the mometasone furoate group. There was no statistically significant difference between groups on RTSS score， VAS scores of sneezing， runny nose， nasal itching， nasal congestion degree and days of episodes at all timepoints （P＞0.05）， but each outcome changed significantly over time in both groups （P＜0.01）. The differences between groups in EOS count， EOS%， ECP levels， serum dust mite， dermatophagoides farinae， cockroach sIgE levels， and drug overuse rate were not statistically significant at enrollment and after 4-week treatment （P＞0.05）. Adverse events occurred in eight cases （15.10%） in the Bisaitong group and five cases （9.30%） in the mometasone furoate group， showing no significant difference between groups （P＞0.05）. ConclusionTopical Bisaitong is non-inferior to mometasone furoate nasal spray in the treatment of moderate to severe AR in terms of clinical symptom relief，reduction in the episodes， improvement of quality of life， and sound safety.

BACKGROUND: LY01005 (Goserelin acetate sustained-release microsphere injection) is a modified gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist injected monthly. This phase III trial study aimed to evaluated the efficacy and safety of LY01005 in Chinese patients with prostate cancer. METHODS: We conducted a randomized controlled, open-label, non-inferiority trial across 49 sites in China. This study included 290 patients with prostate cancer who received either LY01005 or goserelin implants every 28 days for three injections. The primary efficacy endpoints were the percentage of patients with testosterone suppression ≤50 ng/dL at day 29 and the cumulative probability of testosterone ≤50 ng/dL from day 29 to 85. Non-inferiority was prespecified at a margin of -10%. Secondary endpoints included significant castration (≤20 ng/dL), testosterone surge within 72 h following repeated dosing, and changes in luteinizing hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone, and prostate specific antigen levels. RESULTS: On day 29, in the LY01005 and goserelin implant groups, testosterone concentrations fell below medical-castration levels in 99.3% (142/143) and 100% (140/140) of patients, respectively, with a difference of -0.7% (95% confidence interval [CI], -3.9% to 2.0%) between the two groups. The cumulative probabilities of maintaining castration from days 29 to 85 were 99.3% and 97.8%, respectively, with a between-group difference of 1.5% (95% CI, -1.3% to 4.4%). Both results met the criterion for non-inferiority. Secondary endpoints were similar between groups. Both treatments were well-tolerated. LY01005 was associated with fewer injection-site reactions than the goserelin implant (0% vs . 1.4% [2/145]). CONCLUSION: LY01005 is as effective as goserelin implants in reducing testosterone to castration levels, with a similar safety profile. TRIAL REGISTRATION ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT04563936.

Objective:To investigate the effects of laparoscopic total extraperitoneal hernia repair (TEP) on respiratory function and motilin (MOL) in elderly patients with inguinal hernia.Methods:One hundred and twenty elderly patients with inguinal hernia admitted in Chongqing Fengdu People′s Hospital from January 2020 to December 2021 were divided into two groups according to the method of operation, 60 patients who performed laparoscopic preperitoneal hernia repair (TAPP) was enrolled in control group, and 60 patients who performed TEP was enrolled in the study group. The operation index, visual analogue scale (VAS) scores at different time, respiratory function index and gastrin (GAS), MOL levels and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups.Results:Compared with the control group, the operation time in the study group was longer, the recovery time was shorter and the VAS scores were lower on the 1st, 3rd and 7th day after operation: (66.36 ± 10.05) min vs. (53.69 ± 8.59) min, (4.09 ± 0.59) d vs. (5.15 ± 1.06) d, (4.49 ± 1.26) scores vs. (5.46 ± 1.48) scores, (3.65 ± 0.58) scores vs. (4.52 ± 0.95) scores, (2.42 ± 0.41) scores vs. (3.54 ± 0.48) scores, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). The levels of end-expiratory carbon dioxide pressure (P ETCO 2) and airway pressure (Paw) in the study group at 10, 30 and 90 min postoperatively were higher than those in the control group: (40.66 ± 4.52)mmHg(1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa) vs. (37.48 ± 5.26) mmHg, (19.88 ± 1.63) cmH 2O (1 cmH 2O = 0.098 kPa) vs. (16.59 ± 2.15) cmH 2O; (44.65 ± 4.18) mmHg vs. (41.58 ± 4.58) mmHg, (20.49 ± 1.65) cmH 2O vs. (16.95 ± 2.84) cmH 2O; (50.16 ± 3.54) mmHg vs. (45.59 ± 4.65)mmHg, (21.69 ± 1.78) cmH 2O vs. (17.49 ± 2.15) cmH 2O, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). The levels of MOL and GAS in the study group at 3 d postoperatively were higher than those in the control group: (396.54 ± 13.58) ng/L vs. (332.52 ± 16.95) ng/L, (118.95 ± 8.95) ng/L vs. (102.58 ± 10.65) ng/L, there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Both TEP and TAPP have certain therapeutic effects on the inguinal hernia, but TEP has shorter postoperative recovery time, less pain, less impact on gastrointestinal function, but it will have a certain impact on respiratory function.
