Abstract
Background:The Janus kinase (JAK)-1 preferential inhibitor filgotinib (FIL) improved rheumatoid arthritis (RA) signs and symptoms in 3 phase (P)3 trials.1–3 Like other RA therapies, JAK inhibition is associated with increased infection rates.4Objectives:To assess long-term safety across the FIL program regarding infections, including serious infections (SI).Methods:Patients (pts) meeting 2010 ACR/EULAR RA criteria in pooled analysis of P2 DARWIN 1–2 (D1–2), P3 FINCH 1–3 (F1–3), and long-term extension studies (DARWIN 3, FINCH 4) were included. The placebo (PBO)-controlled as-randomised data set included pts receiving FIL 100 mg (FIL100), FIL 200 mg (FIL200), or PBO up to week (W)12 (D1–2, F1–2). The active-controlled as-randomised data set included pts receiving FIL100, FIL200, adalimumab (ADA), or methotrexate (MTX) up to W52 (F1, F3). The long-term as-treated data set included pts in all 7 studies receiving FIL100 or FIL200; data after rerandomisation were included and contributed to treatment received.Exposure-adjusted incidence rates (EAIRs) per 100 patient-years exposure (PYE) and differences with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated using Poisson regression; EAIRs for tuberculosis (TB) in active controlled sets were calculated using an Exact Poisson method. Kaplan-Meier (KM) event probabilities with 95% CIs were provided for SI. If pts had multiple events within the same treatment period, only the first event was counted in EAIR calculation; PYE were calculated up to the last follow-up time or day before next treatment, including after first event. For KM analysis, time to event was calculated until the first event.Results:Of 2267/1647 pts in as-treated set receiving FIL200/FIL100, 1697 had treatment-emergent infection; 118 were SI. Baseline potential risk factors for pts with SI are in Table.Table 1.Baseline characteristics of pts with/without treatment emergent SIaParameter, n (%)SIN = 92No SIN = 2491Medical history Chronic lung disease13 (14.1)125 (5.0) Chronic renal disease3 (3.3)23 (0.9) Infections and infestations29 (31.5)499 (20.0)Baseline body mass index, kg/m2 <3064 (69.6)1749 (70.2) ≥3028 (30.4)742 (29.8)Age, years <6567 (72.8)2006 (80.5) ≥6525 (27.2)485 (19.5)Former/current smoker30 (32.6)677 (27.2)Oral corticosteroids, mg <7.528 (56.0)731 (66.1) ≥7.522 (44.0)375 (33.9) Missing data421385aPhase 3 (FINCH 1-4) studies, as randomised.SI, serious infection.In 12W PBO-controlled period, infection rates were 17.9%/15.6%/13.3% for FIL200/FIL100/PBO. In 52W ADA-controlled period, infection EAIRs (95% CIs)/100 PYE were 46.9 (40.9, 53.7)/43.7 (38.0, 50.4)/43.4 (36.5, 51.5), FIL200/FIL100/ADA; and 38.5 (33.8, 43.9)/39.0 (31.1, 48.8)/42.2 (36.1, 49.3), FIL200/FIL100/MTX in 52W MTX-controlled period; 24.8 (23.1, 26.5)/34.4 (30.4, 38.8), FIL200/FIL100 in long-term analysis. In 12W PBO-controlled period, there was no active TB for FIL200/FIL100/PBO. In 52W ADA-controlled period, active TB EAIRs (95% CIs)/100 PYE were: 0 (0.0, 0.8)/0 (0.0, 0.8)/0.3 (0.0, 1.9), FIL200/FIL100/ADA and 0 (0.0, 0.6)/0 (0.0, 1.9)/0 (0.0, 1.0), FIL200/FIL100/MTX in 52W MTX-controlled period; 0/0.1 (0.0, 0.5), FIL200/FIL100 in long-term analysis.SI rate or EAIRs are in Figure. Most common infections were upper respiratory tract infection and nasopharyngitis; majority were low grade. Pneumonia was most common SI (<1%). In long-term population, event probability (95% CI) of SI was 2.2% (1.6, 2.9)/2.5% (1.8, 3.4) for FIL200/FIL100 at 52W. In F1–3 (excluding data after rerandomisation), there were no significant changes in mean neutrophil and lymphocyte counts; values remained within normal limits up to W52 for all arms.Conclusion:EAIRs of infections and SI for FIL were similar to PBO, ADA, and MTX. At 52W, incidence rates of SI were comparable for FIL100 and FIL200. Long-term SI EAIR for FIL100 was slightly higher than for FIL200.References:[1]Genovese et al.

Abstract
Background:The Janus kinase-1 preferential inhibitor filgotinib (FIL) improved rheumatoid arthritis (RA) signs and symptoms in phase (P)3 trials.1–3 RA elevates cardiovascular disease risk; statins are used to reduce risk.Objectives:To assess safety of statin and filgotinib coadministration across the clinical program.Methods:Patients (pts) meeting 2010 ACR/EULAR RA criteria in P2 DARWIN 1–2 (D1–2; NCT01888874, NCT01894516), P3 FINCH 1–3 (F1–3; NCT02889796, NCT02873936, NCT02886728), and long-term extensions DARWIN 3 and FINCH 4 (D3, F4; NCT02065700, NCT03025308) receiving FIL 100 mg (FIL100) QD, FIL 200 mg QD (FIL200), adalimumab (ADA), methotrexate (MTX), or placebo (PBO) were included. Events related to statin use were analysed as exposed by treatment received. N and % were provided.Week (W)12 PBO-controlled safety analysis included pts receiving FIL100, FIL200, or PBO for ≤12W (D1–2, F1–2); as-treated safety analysis included pts receiving long-term FIL100 QD (n=1647), FIL200 QD (n=2267), ADA (n=325), MTX (n=416), or PBO (n=781) (D1–3, F1–4); P3 as-randomised analysis included data up to W52 (F1–3) per assigned treatment.Results:In each arm, similar proportions of pts took statins at baseline (9.4%–11.9%); initiation during study was low (1.2%–6.8%). Through W12 in PBO-controlled analysis, mean creatine phosphokinase (CPK; Figure 1), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels were similar regardless of statin use and remained within normal levels across all arms.Mean baseline ALT and AST levels were 20–23 and 20–22 U/L, respectively; at W12, ALT and AST ranged from 22–24 and 20–25 U/L, respectively.

Abstract
Background:The once daily, oral Janus kinase (JAK)-1 preferential inhibitor filgotinib (FIL) improved signs and symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in phase (P)3 trials.1-3 Patients (pts) with RA have increased herpes zoster (HZ) reactivation risk vs the general population. JAK inhibition is associated with increased infection incidence, including HZ.4Objectives:To assess long-term safety of FIL across the global clinical program with respect to HZ.Methods:Pts meeting 2010 ACR/EULAR RA criteria in a pooled analysis of P2 DARWIN 1–2 (D1–2), P3 FINCH 1–3 (F1–3), and long-term extension studies (D3, F4) were included. Placebo (PBO)-controlled as-randomised analysis included pts receiving FIL 100 mg (FIL100), FIL 200 mg (FIL200), or PBO up to week (W)12 (D1–2, F1–2); active-controlled as-randomised analysis included pts receiving FIL100, FIL200, adalimumab (ADA), or methotrexate (MTX) up to W52 (F1, F3). Long-term as-treated analysis included pts in all 7 studies receiving FIL100, FIL200, ADA, MTX, or PBO; data after re-randomisation were included and contributed to treatment received. Exposure-adjusted incidence rates (EAIR)/100 patient-years, calculated up to the last follow-up time or day, and differences with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated from the Poisson model. Logistic regression model was used for treatment-emergent (TE) HZ risk factor analysis and odds ratio (95% CI) and P value were provided.Results:Table 1 shows TE HZ EAIRs in a pooled analysis. Rates of HZ were lower for FIL200 vs PBO during the 12W PBO-controlled period. At 52W, HZ rates were higher for FIL200/100 vs active control. Long-term HZ rates increased for FIL200 vs FIL100.Table 1.EAIR of treatment-emergent herpes zosterNPatient-years exposureEAIR(95% CI)EAIR diff(95% CI vs PBO/active control)12W PBO-controlled FIL200777179.80.6 (0.1, 3.9)−0.56 (−2.5, 1.3) FIL100788181.61.1 (0.3, 4.4)−0.02 (−2.2, 2.2) PBO781178.41.1 (0.3, 4.5)Active-controlled, as-randomiseda FIL200475439.71.4 (0.6, 3.0)0.69 (−0.7, 2.1) FIL100480443.40.9 (0.3, 2.4)0.23 (−1.1, 1.5) ADA325297.60.7 (0.2, 2.7)Active-controlled, as-randomiseda FIL200626578.01.7 (0.9, 3.2)0.65 (−0.8, 2.2) FIL100207195.01.5 (0.5, 4.8)0.46 (−1.6, 2.5) MTX416372.21.1 (0.4, 2.9)Long-term as-treatedb FIL20022674047.71.8 (1.4, 2.3)NC FIL10016472032.91.1 (0.8, 1.7)NCaup to W52. bdata cut for LTE FINCH 4, Sept 19, 2019; DARWIN 3, April 26 2019.ADA, adalimumab; CI, confidence interval; EAIR, exposure-adjusted incidence rate; FIL, filgotinib; MTX, methotrexate; NC, not calculated; PBO, placebo; W week.Figure 1 shows multivariate logistic regression model of TE risk factors.Of 104 pts with TE HZ in long-term as-treated analysis set, 5 receiving FIL200 had history of HZ; EAIR (95% CI) was 8.7 (3.6–21.0). Of 8 pts with multiple events, 3 had events of differing severity for the same HZ episode.EAIRs (95% CI) of TE HZ in Asia were: 3.7 (1.7–8.1) FIL200, n=197; 2.8 (1.3–6.3) FIL100, n=158; 0 ADA, n=40; 2.8 (0.4–19.6) MTX, n=43; and 3.4 (0.5–23.8) PBO, n=77 in long-term as-treated population. EAIRs (95% CI) in rest of the world were: 1.6 (1.2–2.1) FIL200, n=2070; 0.9 (0.6–1.5) FIL100, n=1489; 0.8 (0.2–3.1) ADA, n=285; 0.9 (0.3–2.9) MTX, n=373; and 0.7 (0.2–2.9) PBO, n=704 for all pts as-treated.Most TE HZ infections were mild to moderate and non-serious; 6 were serious; 2 were recurrences. No visceral TE HZ occurred across the FIL RA program; there was 1 case each of genital, disseminated, and ophthalmic HZ. The disseminated HZ occurred in a pt with prior HZ history. Lymphopenia was not associated with HZ during the PBO-controlled W12 period.Conclusion:HZ was more common in both FIL groups vs ADA or MTX up to 52 weeks but comparable vs PBO during the 12-week placebo-controlled period. In multivariate analyses, prior history of HZ, Asian region, and age ≥50 years were associated with increased HZ risk.References:[1]Genovese et al. JAMA. 2019;322:315–25.[2]Westhovens et al.

Abstract
The high comorbidity between cardiovascular and metabolic diseases (CVMD) and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and the consequent high mortality and the potential risk of cardiovascular damage have brought great challenges to the clinical diagnosis and treatment of the condition. The latest studies found that advanced age, immune function defects, inflammatory factor storms and oxidative stress damage all potentially contribute to the high comorbidity of the two. Direct virus invasion, myocardial oxygen supply and demand imbalance and vascular endothelial and coagulation dysfunction may be important mechanisms for cardiovascular injury in COVID-19 patients. In addition, the expression level of ACE2 (the cell membrane receptor of SARS-CoV-2) in various organs and the peripheral blood not only mediates the direct invasion and damage of the organs, but also participates in regulation of the balance of systematic inflammation and oxidative stress, thus affecting the susceptibility and outcomes of the patients. Herein we review the recent research progress in the comorbidity between COVID-19 and CVMD and explore the mechanisms of cardiovascular damage caused by SARS-CoV-2, thus to provide a theoretical basis for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19 with underlying CVMD.

Abstract
Intracorporeal classic gastrointestinal anastomosis using circular stapler in totally laparoscopic gastrectomy (TLG) for gastric cancer requires intracorporeal anvil placement and suitable access for introduction of the circular stapler to the abdominal cavity without gas leak. The novel techniques for anvil placement have been updated, but there is no progress for proper access for circular stapler. In the study, intracorporeal circular-stapled gastrointestinal anastomosis were successfully accomplished using a novel device of sealed cap access with a central hole (WLB-60/70-60/100, Wuhan Widerep Medical Instrument Co.,Ltd, China) customized to the incision protection retractor for the simple and accessible introduction of the circular stapler and anvil under the optimal maintenance of pneumoperitoneum pressure in TLG. In these 3 cases, there was no gas leakage and the pneumoperitoneum was well maintained when performing the gastrointestinal anastomosis, and there was no transition to laparotomy or other anastomosis techniques. The result suggests that the sealed cap access could be a novel choice for introduction of the circular stapler to the abdominal cavity in order to obtain laparoscopic circular-stapled gastroin-testinal anastomosis in TLG.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effect of peri-prostatic adipose tissue (PPAT) measurements using preoperative MRI on the prediction of prostate cancer (PCa) aggressiveness in men undergoing radical prostatectomy (RP). METHODS We performed a retrospective study on 179 consecutive patients receiving RP from June 2016 to October 2018. Clinical characteristics were collected. PPAT measurements including peri-prostatic fat area (PPFA) and peri-prostatic fat area to prostate area (PA) ratio (PPFA/PA) were calculated by MRI. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to identify independent predictors of PCa lymph node metastasis (LNM). The predictive performance was estimated through ROC curves. Nomograms were created based on the predictors. RESULTS Pathologic Gleason score positively correlated with digital rectal examination (DRE), PSA, PPFA/PA, P504S, and Ki-67 (all P < 0.05). ROC curves revealed that high PPFA and high PPFA/PA were associated with LNM (both P < 0.05). Multivariate analysis revealed that high PPFA/PA, pathologic Gleason score, pT stage, and Ki-67 were independently predictive of LNM. The nomograms were created and the C-index was 0.945. CONCLUSIONS PPFA/PA is an independent predictor for LNM along with Gleason score, pT stage, and Ki-67. PPFA/PA may help predict LNM in men undergoing RP, thus providing adjunctive information for therapeutic strategy and prognosis.

Wnt antagonist secreted frizzled-related protein I (sFRP1) may be involved in the osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament cells in chronic apical periodontitis. Int Endod J 2021; 54:768-779. [PMID: 33290588 DOI: 10.1111/iej.13461] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2020] [Revised: 12/02/2020] [Accepted: 12/04/2020] [Indexed: 02/05/2023]
Abstract
AIM To explore the mechanism of secreted frizzled-related protein I (sFRP1) involvement in the osteogenic differentiation of human periodontal ligament cells (hPDLCs) under inflammatory conditions. METHODOLOGY hPDLCs were cultured in an osteogenic differentiation-inducing medium (odi) and subjected to the stimulation of Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide (P. gingivalis LPS) with or without the inhibition of sFRP1. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, Western blot and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were carried out to evaluate the expression of osteogenic markers as well as the classic Wnt signalling pathway. Periapical periodontitis was induced in Wistar rats to further confirm the effect of sFRP1 inhibitor on bone loss in vivo. After the Shapiro-Wilk normality test, data were analysed by Student's paired t-test or one-way Anova test with a P value less than 0.05 as the level of statistical significance. RESULTS Significantly decreased mRNA and protein expression of osteogenic markers were detected in hPDLCs treated with P. gingivalis LPS during osteogenic induction (P < 0.001). Increased expression of sFRP1 was observed (P < 0.01), whilst Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway was inhibited by the addition of P. gingivalis LPS (P < 0.01). After the addition of the sFRP1 inhibitor, the decrease of osteogenic markers (P < 0.05) and the inhibition of Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway (P < 0.05) were reversed significantly. The animal experiment further confirmed that the sFRP1 inhibitor significantly reduced bone loss of periapical lesions in vivo (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS Wnt antagonist sFRP1 was involved in the osteogenic differentiation of hPDLCs under inflammation. Modulation of the Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathway through the inhibition of sFRP1 may offer a new perspective on the treatment of chronic apical periodontitis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the epidemic situation and epidemiological characteristics of malaria in Lishui City from 2013 to 2018, so as to provide the evidence for formulating the malaria control strategy. METHODS The data pertaining malaria cases in Lishui City from 2013 to 2018 were captured from National Notifiable Communicable Disease Reporting System and the Information System for Parasitic Diseases Control and Prevention, and the epidemiological features of malaria cases were analyzed. RESULTS A total of 119 malaria cases were reported in Lishui City from 2013 to 2018, including 101 cases with falciparum malaria (84.87%), 6 cases with vivax malaria (5.04%), 8 cases with ovale malaria (6.72%), and 4 cases with mixed infection (3.36%). Among the 119 cases, there were one local case with blood transfusion-induced malaria and 118 cases with over- seas imported malaria. There were 98.32% of the imported malaria cases acquiring infection in African countries, and most cases were reported in Qingtian County (60.50%) and Liandu District (22.69%). In addition, 86.55% of the malaria cases were detected in individuals at ages of 20 to 50 years, and most cases were found in oversea workers (52.94%) and businessmen (38.65%). CONCLUSIONS Most of the malaria cases in Lishui City are imported from Africa, and the monitoring and health education pertaining to malaria control knowledge requires to be intensified among high-risk populations.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating cerebrovascular disease of the central nervous system. In this study, we aimed to investigate plasma ZCCHC14 expression and its correlation with the diagnosis, prognosis, and clinical features of ICH. PATIENTS AND METHODS The plasma levels of ZCCHC14, TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-10 were dynamically detected among 130 ICH patients and 60 corresponding healthy subjects. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used for the statistical analysis of the diagnostic and prognostic efficacy of ICH. RESULTS Hypertension (p = 0.005), ARB application (p = 0.014), ZCCHC14 level (p < 0.001), TNF-α (p < 0.001), IL-6 (p < 0.001), and IL-10 (p < 0.001) were found to be different between ICH patients and healthy controls. Multiple logistic regression analysis indicated that ZCCHC14 levels at admission were significantly different between the two groups (p = 0.002, OR = 0.440, 95% CI 0.290-0.718). Plasma ZCCHC14 levels dynamically changed, increasing at admission, and peaking on day 7. ZCCHC14 was a potential diagnostic marker for ICH (AUC = 0.953, p < 0.0001, 95% CI: 0.901-1.004) with a specificity and sensitivity of 84.6% and 95.5%, respectively. The plasma ZCCHC14 level was negatively correlated with IL-6 concentration (p = 0.024, r = -0.311) but was positively correlated with IL-10 concentration (p = 0.041, r = 0.298). Furthermore, the plasma ZCCHC14 level was correlated with hypertension (p = 0.005), GOS (p = 0.025), bleeding volume (p < 0.001), midline shift (p = 0.003), and poor outcome (p = 0.006). The low ZCCHC14 expression group had poorer outcomes (death or severe disability) than high ZCCHC14 expression group (Breslow, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS We found that the plasma ZCCHC14 level might be a potential biomarker for both the early diagnosis of and prediction of outcomes in ICH.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE SARS-CoV-2 is currently affecting millions of humans worldwide, thus contributing to the COVID-19 pandemic. Thromboembolic events have a higher incidence among patients with COVID-19, but there are few reports on the relationship between the prognosis of COVID-19 patients and thromboembolic events. The objectives of this meta-analysis were to explore the relationship between the prognosis of COVID-19 patients and thromboembolic events. MATERIALS AND METHODS Medline (PubMed), the Web of Science, Embase, and the Cochrane Library were searched for case-control studies that included data on vein thrombosis in patients with COVID-19 and were published in English, between January 1 and July 25, 2020. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, the included data were confirmed, the prognoses of patients with and without concurrent thromboembolic events were compared, and the odds ratio (OR) was used as the effect size. RESULTS Eighteen studies (2,030 patients) were included. Thromboembolic events complicated a total of 609 COVID-19 patients. The combined OR of the mortality of COVID-19 patients with thromboembolic events was 1.93 (95% CI: 1.13-3.27), that of ICU treatment rate was 2.63 (95% CI: 1.49-4.67), and that of treatment with invasive mechanical ventilation was 3.14 (95% CI: 1.97-5.02). CONCLUSIONS As compared with COVID-19 patients with and without thromboembolism, the mortality, ICU treatment rate, and invasive mechanical ventilation treatment rate of COVID-19 patients with thromboembolism were found to be increased significantly, and the prognosis was worse.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Many studies have reported arrhythmia to be associated with coronavirus disease (COVID-19), but no meta-analysis has explored whether arrhythmia is related to COVID-19 severity. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate arrhythmia in patients with severe and non-severe COVID-19 during the current COVID-19 pandemic. MATERIALS AND METHODS We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library for case control studies that were published between January 1 and July 25, 2020, and that had data on arrhythmia in patients with COVID-19. Random effects model was used with the odds ratio as the effect size. The frequency of arrhythmia was compared between COVID-19 patients with and without the composite endpoint of severity. We also determined the pooled prevalence of arrhythmia in patients with COVID-19. Publication bias and heterogeneity were considered by using subgroup analyses, meta-regression, and the trim and fill method. RESULTS A total of 1553 patients with COVID-19 were included in the 5 articles we obtained. Of these, 349 cases (22.47%) and 1204 cases (77.53%) were severely ill and non-severely ill inpatients with COVID-19 pneumonia, respectively. There were 790 (50.87%) male patients. A total of 105 cases (30.09%) of severely ill inpatients with COVID-19 pneumonia had arrhythmia complications, and 34 cases (2.82%) of non-severely ill inpatients with COVID-19 pneumonia had arrhythmia complications. We found arrhythmia to be significantly associated with severely ill inpatients with COVID-19 pneumonia, with a pooled odds ratio of 17.97 (95% CI (11.30, 28.55), p<0.00001). CONCLUSIONS This study showed that the incidence of arrhythmia in patients with severe COVID-19 was greater than that of those with non-severe COVID-19. Patients with severe COVID-19 had a higher risk of arrhythmia complications, which further showed that COVID-19 may be a risk factor for arrhythmia and that the incidence of arrhythmia may increase with the progression of the disease. More importantly, this meta-analysis graded the reliability of evidence for further basic and clinical research into arrhythmia in patients with COVID-19.

Abstract
CLINICAL RELEVANCE Using the deep margin elevation technique in preparations extending beyond the cemento-enamel junction appears to be beneficial in maintaining structural integrity of CAD/CAM-fabricated feldspathic ceramic inlays. SUMMARY Objective: To evaluate the effect of deep margin elevation on structural and marginal integrity of ceramic inlays.Methods and Materials: Forty extracted human third molars were collected and randomly separated into four groups (n=10/group). In group 1 (enamel margin group), the gingival margin was placed 1 mm supragingival to the cemento-enamel junction (CEJ). In group 2 (cementum margin group), the gingival margin was placed 2 mm below the CEJ. In group 3 (glass ionomer [GI] margin group), the gingival margin was placed 2 mm below the CEJ, and then the margin elevated with GI to the CEJ. In group 4 (resin-modified glass ionomer [RMGI] margin group), the gingival margin was placed 2 mm below the CEJ, and then the margin elevated with RMGI to the CEJ. Standardized ceramic class II inlays were fabricated with computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing and bonded to all teeth, and ceramic proximal box heights were measured. All teeth were subjected to 10,000 cycles of thermocycling (5°C/55°C) and then underwent 1,200,000 cycles of vertical chewing simulation at 50 N of force. Ceramic restorations and marginal integrity were assessed with a Hirox digital microscope. The Fisher exact test (two-tailed) with adjusted p-values (α=0.05) and logistic regression were used for statistical analysis.Results: The cementum margin group had a significantly higher ceramic fracture rate (90%) compared to other groups (10% in enamel margin and GI margin groups, p=0.007; 0% in RMGI group, p<0.001). Logistic regression showed that with increased ceramic proximal box heights, the probability of ceramic fracture increased dramatically.Conclusion: Deep marginal elevation resulted in decreased ceramic fracture when preparation margins were located below the CEJ. There was no difference found between margin elevation with GI or RMGI. Increased heights of ceramic proximal box may lead to an increased probability of ceramic fracture.

Abstract
Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a common late complication in liver-transplanted patients who have received long-term therapy with calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs). Aims: To analyze kidney disease progression after liver transplantation. Methods We analysed the clinical data of adult single-organ liver transplant recipients performed at our centre between October 2003 and September 2009. The patients with the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) greater than 60 ml/min/1.73 m2 before surgery were included in the study. Results 69 patients with complete follow-up data were analysed. We found that eGFR at 1 or 2 years after liver transplantation correlated well with eGFR at 5 years. In addition, our results showed that patients whose eGFR declined below 60 at 2 years after liver transplantation would develop an irreversible renal injury in the following years. At 2 years, 12 patients had an eGFR less than 60, which were maintained in 11 patients at 5 years (Sensitivity = 11/12, 91.67%; Specificity = 57/58, 98.28%, Youden's index = 89.95%). The annual rate of eGFR reduction of the tacrolimus group was greater than that of the tacrolimus sparing group based on the value-time variation curve in our study. Moreover, the tacrolimus concentration influenced the CKD progression at 1 and 2 years with an under the ROC curve of 0.73 and 0.78 when Youden's index was at its maximum and the tacrolimus concentrations were 8.55 and 5.96 ng/ml, respectively. Conclusion We confirmed that eGFR at 2 years after liver transplantation is useful for observing a meaningful change in eGFR and renal damage. Obtaining the appropriate serum concentration of an early decrease of the dose of CNIs and transforming non-nephrotoxic immunosuppressants would help improve renal function to prevent CKD progression and end-stage renal disease (ESRD).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies have demonstrated the possibility of negative associations between prior influenza vaccines and subsequent influenza vaccine effectiveness (VE), depending on season and strain. We investigated this association over 4 consecutive influenza seasons (2011-2012 through 2014-2015) in Canada. METHODS Using a matched test-negative design, laboratory-confirmed influenza cases and matched test-negative controls admitted to hospitals were enrolled. Patients were stratified into 4 groups according to influenza vaccine history (not vaccinated current and prior season [referent], vaccinated prior season only, vaccinated current season only, and vaccinated both current and prior season). Conditional logistic regression was used to estimate VE; prior vaccine impact was assessed each season for overall effect and effect stratified by age (<65 years, ≥65 years) and type/subtype (A/H1N1, A/H3N2, influenza B). RESULTS Overall, mainly nonsignificant associations were observed. Trends of nonsignificant decreased VE among patients repeatedly vaccinated in both prior and current season relative to the current season only were observed in the A/H3N2-dominant seasons of 2012-2013 and 2014-2015. Conversely, in 2011-2012, during which B viruses circulated, and in 2013-2014, when A/H1N1 circulated, being vaccinated in both seasons tended to result in a high VE in the current season against the dominant circulating subtype. CONCLUSIONS Prior vaccine impact on subsequent VE among Canadian inpatients was mainly nonsignificant. Even in circumstances where we observed a trend of negative impact, being repeatedly vaccinated was still more effective than not receiving the current season's vaccine. These findings favor continuation of annual influenza vaccination recommendations, particularly in older adults. CLINICAL TRIALS REGISTRATION NCT01517191.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The World Health Organization reported a cluster of cases of pneumonia of unknown cause detected on December 31, 2019 in China. Unfortunately, a 34-year-old Italian nurse has committed suicide after testing positive for coronavirus. It was the second case of suicide by a nurse in an Italian hospital and occurred only a few days after the first suicide. These consecutive suicides have aroused concern, and it is necessary to investigate the psychological issues of the medical staff in Italy regarding the COVID-19.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of iron supplement in patients who have paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) with iron deficiency. Methods: We performed analyses on the clinical data of 48 patients who accepted oral and/or intravenous iron treatment. Forty-eight consecutive PNH patients with iron deficiency who visited our hospital between November 2011 and August 2018 were enrolled in the study. Results: Total 30 patients received oral iron; 18 patients received intravenous iron supplements, including 6 who did not respond to oral iron. The median PNH clone size was 90.2% (38.5%-99.9%) in the granulocytes and 69.7% (27.6%-98.1%) in the red blood cells. The response rate was 56% (20/36) in patients who received oral iron, and the hemoglobin concentration increased 21 (10-52) g/L compared to that at baseline. Sixteen out of eighteen (89%) patients responded to intravenous iron; 6 patients who did not respond to oral iron received intravenous iron, and the hemoglobin level of 5 patients increased. Patients exhibited increased LDH levels and deepen urine after iron supplementation; however, no severe adverse events, such as thrombosis and iron-related adverse effects, were noted. Conclusion: Iron treatment is safe and effective in increasing the hemoglobin level in PNH patients with iron deficiency; those who did not respond to oral iron could benefit from intravenous iron supplement.

Abstract
目的 调查影响环孢素A(CsA)联合雄激素方案治疗输血依赖非重型再生障碍性贫血(TD-NSAA)获得血液学反应的因素。 方法 回顾性分析2010–2013年连续收治的77例TD-NSAA患者临床资料,单因素和多因素分析影响CsA联合雄激素治疗方案获得血液学反应患者的基线临床和血液学特征。 结果 77例TD-NSAA患者治疗后6个月和12个月获得血液学反应分别为43例(55.8%)和53例(68.8%),单因素分析基线血小板计数[19(6~61)×109/L对13.5(5~45)×109/L,P=0.001]是影响6个月获得血液学反应的唯一因素;基线血小板计数[18(6~61)×109/L对10.5(5~45)×109/L,P<0.001]、网织红细胞绝对值[0.03(0.01~0.06)×1012/L对0.03(0.02~0.06)×1012/L,P=0.043]、血小板输注依赖(P=0.007)和红细胞及血小板输注依赖(P=0.012)为治疗后12个月能否获得血液学反应相关因素。多因素分析显示基线血小板水平为获得血液学反应独立影响因素(P值分别为0.010和0.009)。受试者工作特征曲线(ROC曲线)方法显示基线PLT界值为15.5×109/L。 结论 TD-NSAA患者初诊时较高的血小板基线水平、网织红细胞基线水平和不伴血小板输注依赖均提示预后较好,血小板水平≥15.5×109/L时可以考虑采用CsA联合雄激素治疗。

Abstract
Background:Filgotinib (FIL), an oral, potent, selective JAK-1 inhibitor, provided statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) signs and symptoms, physical function, radiographic progression, and quality of life in a comprehensive clinical program of 4 phase 3 (FINCH 1–4;NCT02889796,NCT02873936,NCT02886728,NCT03025308) and 3 phase 2 (DARWIN 1–3;NCT01668641,NCT01894516,NCT02065700) trials in patients (pts) with early and biologic-refractory RA.1–3Objectives:To assess long-term safety of FIL.Methods:Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) from the FIL clinical program were integrated and presented for pts receiving FIL 200 mg or FIL 100 mg QD (including pts who transitioned to FIL from placebo [PBO], methotrexate [MTX], adalimumab [ADA], or another dose of FIL) as well as pts receiving PBO, MTX, and ADA across all 7 studies. Exposure-adjusted incidence rates (EAIRs) per 100 patient-years (PY) were calculated for adverse events (AEs) of interest per treatment. Incidence was total number of pts with events, and PY exposure was time between first and last doses. Major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) and venous thromboembolism (VTE) were centrally adjudicated by an independent committee.Results:Across the 7 trials, 4057 pts with RA (2227 pts FIL 200 mg; 1600 pts FIL 100 mg) received >1 dose of treatment for 5493 total PY of exposure (3079.2 PY FIL 200 mg; 1465.3 PY FIL 100 mg) (Table). EAIRs of serious AEs and TEAEs leading to death in pts receiving FIL were comparable to those for PBO, ADA, or MTX, with no dose-dependent effect (Figure 1). EAIR for herpes zoster (HZ), serious, and opportunistic infections are shown in Figure 2. EAIR for HZ were low overall, but numerically slightly higher for FIL relative to PBO, ADA, and similar to MTX. Serious infection EAIRs were comparable between pts receiving FIL 100 mg and ADA, and numerically slightly lower for FIL 200 mg and MTX. Rates of opportunistic infections (including active tuberculosis) were low overall; EAIR for FIL doses were comparable to placebo and numerically lower than ADA or MTX. Rates of MACE and VTE were numerically lower for FIL relative to PBO (Figure 1). Malignancies, including nonmelanoma skin cancer, were rare overall, and rates were low in pts receiving FIL (Figure 1).Table.Total exposure to study treatments pooled from 7 studiesNumber of patientsPatient-years of exposureFIL 200 mg22273079.2FIL 100 mg16001465.3ADA325290.1MTX416356.2PBO781302.4Patients could contribute to >1 treatment group.ADA, adalimumab; FIL, filgotinib; MTX, methotrexate; PBO, placebo.Conclusion:In this integrated analysis, FIL was well-tolerated, and no new safety concerns were identified. No clinically meaningful dose-dependent safety effects were observed. MACE and VTE were uncommon. Serious infections rates were low; HZ reactivation was infrequent. Safety results were consistent with selective JAK-1 inhibition and highlight the favourable safety and tolerability of FIL in patients with RA.References:[1]Genovese, et al.JAMA2019;322(4):315–25.[2]Westhovens, et al.Ann Rheum Dis2017;76:998–1008.[3]Kavanaugh, et al.Ann Rheum Dis2017;76:1009–19.Disclosure of Interests:Mark C.
