Yang F, Yang L, Ning X, Liu J, Wang J. Effect of dry eye on the reliability of keratometry for cataract surgery planning. J Fr Ophtalmol 2024; 47:103999. [PMID: 37919153 DOI: 10.1016/j.jfo.2023.04.016] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2023] [Revised: 04/04/2023] [Accepted: 04/05/2023] [Indexed: 11/04/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE This study aimed to evaluate the effects of dry eye on the reproducibility of keratometry (K) measurements in patients presenting for cataract surgery. METHODS A non-randomized controlled clinical study was performed. Eighty-three eyes of eighty-three patients with cataracts who were enrolled in our hospital from March 2020 to July 2020 were studied. The mean non-invasive tear film break-up time (NIBUT), corneal fluorescein staining score, and ocular surface disease (OSD) SPEED II questionnaire were measured and recorded prior to surgery, and the patients were assigned to a "dry eye" group (n=35) or a "non-dry eye" group (n=48). The K of the patients was measured twice by a Tomey OA-2000 (an average of three times each). The difference of the mean K (ΔKm) and astigmatism vector (ΔKvector) between the two measurements was calculated. The ΔKm and ΔKvector between the two groups were compared. The relationship between the measurement parameters of dry eyes and the accuracy of the preoperative K values was analyzed. RESULTS ΔKm was 0.09 D [0.03; 0.19] in the non-dry eye control group and 0.28 D [0.18; 0.50] in the dry eye group, with a statistical difference between the two groups (P=0.005). The ΔKvector of the non-dry eye control group was 0.22 D [0.14; 0.42], and that of the dry eye group was 0.50 D [0.28; 1.06]. There was a significant difference between the two groups (P=0.010). Between the two groups, the percentage of the ΔKm and ΔKvector values greater than 0.5 D were statistically different (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in ΔKm between the groups with NIBUT>5s and NIBUT≤5s (P=0.537). There was no significant difference in ΔKm between groups≥2 and<2 on the OSD SPEED II questionnaire scores (P=0.442). CONCLUSION Dry eye can affect the reliability of keratometry measurements before cataract surgery, thereby affecting the accuracy of intraocular lens power calculations. In cataract surgery planning, it is necessary to detect subjective and objective indicators of dry eye in patients and carry out effective intervention so as to avoid refractive errors caused by inaccurate keratometry measurements.

Abstract
Autophagy is a lysosome-dependent degradation pathway essential for cellular homeostasis, which decreases with age. However, it is unclear how aging induces autophagy decline. Here we show the role of protein S-palmitoylation in autophagy. We identify the palmitoyl acyltransferase DHHC5 as a regulator of autophagy by mediating the palmitoylation of beclin 1, which in turn promotes the formation of ATG14L-containing class III phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase complex I and its lipid kinase activity by promoting the hydrophobic interactions between beclin 1 and adapter proteins ATG14L and VPS15. In aging brains of human and nonhuman primate, the levels of DHHC5 exhibit a marked decrease in expression. We show that DHHC5 deficiency in neurons leads to reduced cellular protein homeostasis in two established murine models of Alzheimer's disease, which exaggerates neurodegeneration in an autophagy-dependent manner. These findings identify reduction of DHHC5-mediated beclin 1 S-palmitoylation as an underlying mechanism by which aging induces autophagy decline.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE In recent years, cell therapy has emerged as a new research direction in the treatment of diabetes. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) differentiation necessary to form such treatment have not been clarified. METHODS In this study, human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (HUC-MSCs) isolated from newborns were progressively induced into insulin-producing cells (IPCs) using small molecules. HUC-MSC (S0) and four induced stage (S1-S4) samples were prepared. We then performed transcriptome sequencing experiments to obtain the dynamic expression profiles of both mRNAs and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs). RESULTS We found that the number of differentially expressed lncRNAs and mRNAs trended downwards during differentiation. Gene Ontology (GO) analysis showed that the target genes of differentially expressed lncRNAs were associated with translation, cell adhesion, and cell connection. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis revealed that the NF-KB signalling pathway, MAPK signalling pathway, HIPPO signalling pathway, PI3K-Akt signalling pathway, and p53 signalling pathway were enriched in these differentially expressed lncRNA-targeting genes. We also found that the coexpression of the lncRNA CTBP1-AS2 with PROX1 and the lncRNAs AC009014.3 and GS1-72M22.1 with JARID2 mRNA was related to the development of pancreatic beta cells. Moreover, the coexpression of the lncRNAs: XLOC_ 050969, LINC00883, XLOC_050981, XLOC_050925, MAP3K14- AS1, RP11-148K1.12, and CTD2020K17.3 with p53, regulated insulin secretion by pancreatic beta cells. CONCLUSION In this study, HUC-MSCs combined with small molecule compounds were successfully induced into IPCs. Differentially expressed lncRNAs may regulate the insulin secretion of pancreatic beta cells by regulating multiple signalling pathways. The lncRNAs AC009014.3, Gs1-72m21.1, and CTBP1-AS2 may be involved in the development of pancreatic beta cells, and the lncRNAs: XLOC_050969, LINC00883, XLOC_050981, XLOC_050925, MAP3K14-AS1, RP11-148K1.12, and CTD2020K17.3 may be involved in regulating the insulin secretion of pancreatic beta cells, thus providing a lncRNA catalogue for future research regarding the mechanism of the transdifferentiation of HUC-MSCs into IPCs. It also provides a new theoretical basis for the transplantation of insulin-producing cells into diabetic patients in the future.

Abstract
Objective: To assess the association between body mass index (BMI) and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events (MACCE) among patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Methods: This was a multicenter prospective cohort study, which was based on the Improving Care for Cardiovascular Disease in China (CCC) project. The hospitalized patients with ACS aged between 18 and 80 years, registered in CCC project from November 1, 2014 to December 31, 2019 were included. The included patients were categorized into four groups based on their BMI at the time of admission: underweight (BMI<18.5 kg/m2), normal weight (BMI between 18.5 and 24.9 kg/m2), overweight (BMI between 25.0 and 29.9 kg/m2), and obese (BMI≥30.0 kg/m2). Multivariate logistic regression models was used to analyze the relationship between BMI and the risk of in-hospital MACCE. Results: A total of 71 681 ACS inpatients were included in the study. The age was (63.4±14.7) years, and 26.5% (18 979/71 681) were female. And the incidence of MACCE for the underweight, normal weight, overweight, and obese groups were 14.9% (322/2 154), 9.5% (3 997/41 960), 7.9% (1 908/24 140) and 7.0% (240/3 427), respectively (P<0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed a higher incidence of MACCE in the underweight group compared to the normal weight group (OR=1.30, 95%CI 1.13-1.49, P<0.001), while the overweight and obese groups exhibited no statistically significant difference in the incidence of MACCE compared to the normal weight group (both P>0.05). Conclusion: ACS patients with BMI below normal have a higher risk of in-hospital MACCE, suggesting that BMI may be an indicator for evaluating short-term prognosis in ACS patients.

Abstract
Dysregulation of the alternative pathway (AP) of the complement system is a significant contributor to age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a primary cause of irreversible vision loss worldwide. Here, we assess the contribution of the liver-produced complement factor H-related 4 protein (FHR-4) to AMD initiation and course of progression. We show that FHR-4 variation in plasma and at the primary location of AMD-associated pathology, the retinal pigment epithelium/Bruch's membrane/choroid interface, is entirely explained by three independent quantitative trait loci (QTL). Using two distinct cohorts composed of a combined 14,965 controls and 20,741 cases, we ascertain that independent QTLs for FHR-4 are distinct from variants causally associated with AMD, and that FHR-4 variation is not independently associated with disease. Additionally, FHR-4 does not appear to influence AMD progression course among patients with disease driven predominantly by AP dysregulation. Modulation of FHR-4 is therefore unlikely to be an effective therapeutic strategy for AMD.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of intravascular large B-cell lymphoma (IVLBCL) and its collision tumors. Methods: Five cases of IVLBCL were collected, including 2 cases of collision tumors, and 1 case complicated with liver cirrhosis. The morphology and immunophenotype were analyzed. The related literature was reviewed. Results: There were 2 females and 3 males, aged from 53 to 73 years, with a median age of 65 years. The tumors were located in the lower extremities, right cerebellar hemisphere, left kidney, bilateral nasal cavity, and liver, respectively. Cases 2 and 3 were incidentally found in meningioma and renal cell carcinoma tissues, respectively. Case 5 had a background of liver cirrhosis. Morphologically, atypical large lymphoid cells were located in small blood vessels and capillary lumen, with little cytoplasm, hyperchromasia, prominent nucleoli, and obvious mitotic figures. Immunohistochemically, the IVLBCL tumor cells expressed CD20 and PAX5; 2 cases were CD5 positive. One of the 5 cases was GCB phenotype, and 4 cases were non-GCB phenotype. All cases expressed C-MYC (positive rate was 10%-40%). PD-L1 was positive in 4 cases (positive rate was 60%-90%). Ki-67 proliferation index was 70%-90%. CKpan, CD3, TDT, and CD34 were negative. In case 2, meningioma cells were positive for PR, EMA, and vimentin, but negative for CKpan and PD-L1. In case 3, renal carcinoma cells were positive for CKpan, PAX8, EMA, vimentin, CAⅨ and CD10, while PD-L1 was negative. No EBER expression (by in situ hybridization) or C-MYC gene translocation (FISH, break-apart probe) was detected in any of the 5 cases. Three patients were followed up, and all died within 1-13 months. Conclusions: IVLBCL is a highly aggressive lymphoma, with occult clinical manifestations and poor prognosis. Collision tumors of IVLBCL are extremely rare. A better understanding of IVLBCL would help pathologists avoid misdiagnoses.

Abstract
Defects in adipocyte lipolysis drive multiple aspects of cardiometabolic disease, but the transcriptional framework controlling this process has not been established. To address this, we performed a targeted perturbation screen in primary human adipocytes. Our analyses identified 37 transcriptional regulators of lipid mobilization, which we classified as (i) transcription factors, (ii) histone chaperones, and (iii) mRNA processing proteins. On the basis of its strong relationship with multiple readouts of lipolysis in patient samples, we performed mechanistic studies on one hit, ZNF189, which encodes the zinc finger protein 189. Using mass spectrometry and chromatin profiling techniques, we show that ZNF189 interacts with the tripartite motif family member TRIM28 and represses the transcription of an adipocyte-specific isoform of phosphodiesterase 1B (PDE1B2). The regulation of lipid mobilization by ZNF189 requires PDE1B2, and the overexpression of PDE1B2 is sufficient to attenuate hormone-stimulated lipolysis. Thus, our work identifies the ZNF189-PDE1B2 axis as a determinant of human adipocyte lipolysis and highlights a link between chromatin architecture and lipid mobilization.

Abstract
Adding dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) to vascular endothelial cell-formed vessel-like structures can increase the longevity of these vessel networks. DPSCs display pericyte-like cell functions and closely assemble endothelial cells (ECs). However, the mechanisms of DPSC-derived pericyte-like cells in stabilizing the vessel networks are not fully understood. In this study, we investigated the functions of E-DPSCs, which were DPSCs isolated from the direct coculture of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and DPSCs, and T-DPSCs, which were DPSCs treated by transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1), in stabilizing blood vessels in vitro and in vivo. A 3-dimensional coculture spheroid sprouting assay was conducted to compare the functions of E-DPSCs and T-DPSCs in vitro. Dental pulp angiogenesis in the severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) mouse model was used to explore the roles of E-DPSCs and T-DPSCs in vascularization in vivo. The results demonstrated that both E-DPSCs and T-DPSCs possess smooth muscle cell-like cell properties, exhibiting higher expression of the mural cell-specific markers and the suppression of HUVEC sprouting. E-DPSCs and T-DPSCs inhibited HUVEC sprouting by activating TEK tyrosine kinase (Tie2) signaling, upregulating vascular endothelial (VE)-cadherin, and downregulating vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 (VEGFR2). In vivo study revealed more perfused and total blood vessels in the HUVEC + E-DPSC group, HUVEC + T-DPSC group, angiopoietin 1 (Ang1) pretreated group, and vascular endothelial protein tyrosine phosphatase (VE-PTP) inhibitor pretreated group, compared to HUVEC + DPSC group. In conclusion, these data indicated that E-DPSCs and T-DPSCs could stabilize the newly formed blood vessels and accelerate their perfusion. The critical regulating pathways are Ang1/Tie2/VE-cadherin and VEGF/VEGFR2 signaling.

Abstract
Surgical resection remains the prefer option for bladder cancer treatment. However, the effectiveness of surgery is usually limited for the high recurrence rate and poor prognosis. Consequently, intravesical chemotherapy synergize with immunotherapy in situ is an attractive way to improve therapeutic effect. Herein, a combined strategy based on thermo-sensitive PLEL hydrogel drug delivery system was developed. GEM loaded PLEL hydrogel was intravesical instilled to kill tumor cells directly, then PLEL hydrogel incorporated with CpG was injected into both groins subcutaneously to promote immune responses synergize with GEM. The results demonstrated that drug loaded PLEL hydrogel had a sol-gel phase transition behavior in response to physiological temperature and presented sustained drug release, and the PLEL-assisted combination therapy could have better tumor suppression effect and stronger immunostimulating effect in vivo. Hence, this combined treatment with PLEL hydrogel system has great potential and suggests a clinically-relevant and valuable option for bladder cancer.

Effects of empagliflozin on progression of chronic kidney disease: a prespecified secondary analysis from the empa-kidney trial. Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol 2024; 12:39-50. [PMID: 38061371 PMCID: PMC7615591 DOI: 10.1016/s2213-8587(23)00321-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2023] [Revised: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 10/25/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors reduce progression of chronic kidney disease and the risk of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality in a wide range of patients. However, their effects on kidney disease progression in some patients with chronic kidney disease are unclear because few clinical kidney outcomes occurred among such patients in the completed trials. In particular, some guidelines stratify their level of recommendation about who should be treated with SGLT2 inhibitors based on diabetes status and albuminuria. We aimed to assess the effects of empagliflozin on progression of chronic kidney disease both overall and among specific types of participants in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA), and included individuals aged 18 years or older with an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or with an eGFR of 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher. We explored the effects of 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily versus placebo on the annualised rate of change in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR slope), a tertiary outcome. We studied the acute slope (from randomisation to 2 months) and chronic slope (from 2 months onwards) separately, using shared parameter models to estimate the latter. Analyses were done in all randomly assigned participants by intention to treat. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered at ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and then followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroups of eGFR included 2282 (34·5%) participants with an eGFR of less than 30 mL/min per 1·73 m2, 2928 (44·3%) with an eGFR of 30 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, and 1399 (21·2%) with an eGFR 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2 or higher. Prespecified subgroups of uACR included 1328 (20·1%) with a uACR of less than 30 mg/g, 1864 (28·2%) with a uACR of 30 to 300 mg/g, and 3417 (51·7%) with a uACR of more than 300 mg/g. Overall, allocation to empagliflozin caused an acute 2·12 mL/min per 1·73 m2 (95% CI 1·83-2·41) reduction in eGFR, equivalent to a 6% (5-6) dip in the first 2 months. After this, it halved the chronic slope from -2·75 to -1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (relative difference 50%, 95% CI 42-58). The absolute and relative benefits of empagliflozin on the magnitude of the chronic slope varied significantly depending on diabetes status and baseline levels of eGFR and uACR. In particular, the absolute difference in chronic slopes was lower in patients with lower baseline uACR, but because this group progressed more slowly than those with higher uACR, this translated to a larger relative difference in chronic slopes in this group (86% [36-136] reduction in the chronic slope among those with baseline uACR <30 mg/g compared with a 29% [19-38] reduction for those with baseline uACR ≥2000 mg/g; ptrend<0·0001). INTERPRETATION Empagliflozin slowed the rate of progression of chronic kidney disease among all types of participant in the EMPA-KIDNEY trial, including those with little albuminuria. Albuminuria alone should not be used to determine whether to treat with an SGLT2 inhibitor. FUNDING Boehringer Ingelheim and Eli Lilly.

Multimodel habitats constructed by perfusion and/or diffusion MRI predict isocitrate dehydrogenase mutation status and prognosis in high-grade gliomas. Clin Radiol 2024; 79:e127-e136. [PMID: 37923627 DOI: 10.1016/j.crad.2023.09.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2023] [Revised: 08/15/2023] [Accepted: 09/22/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023]
Abstract
AIM To determine whether tumour vascular and cellular heterogeneity of high-grade glioma (HGG) is predictive of isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutation status and overall survival (OS) by using tumour habitat-based analysis constructed by perfusion and/or diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventy-eight HGG patients that met the 2021 World Health Organization WHO Classification of Tumors of the Central Nervous System, 5th edition (WHO CNS5), were enrolled to predict IDH mutation status, of which 32 grade 4 patients with unmethylated O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) promoter were enrolled for prognostic analysis. The deep-learning-based model nnU-Net and K-means clustering algorithm were applied to construct the Traditional Habitat, Vascular Habitat (VH), Cellular Density Habitat (DH), and their Combined Habitat (CH). Quantitative parameters were extracted and compared between IDH-mutant and IDH-wild-type patients, respectively, and the prediction potential was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. OS was analysed using Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and the log-rank test. RESULTS Compared with IDH-mutants, median relative cerebral blood volume (rCBVmedian) values in the whole enhancing tumour (WET), VH1, VH3, CH1-4 habitats were significantly increased in IDH-wild-type HGGs (all p<0.05). Additionally, the accuracy of rCBVmedian values in CH1 outperformed other habitats in identifying IDH mutation status (p<0.001) at a cut-off value of 4.83 with AUC of 0.815. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis highlighted significant differences in OS between the populations dichotomised by the median of rCBVmedian in WET, VH1, CH1-3 habitats (all p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The habitat imaging technique may improve the accuracy of predicting IDH mutation status and prognosis, and even provide a new direction for subsequent personalised precision treatment.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are no drugs on the market that can reverse or slow Alzheimer's disease (AD) progression. A protease-resistant Cholecystokinin (CCK) analogue used in this study is based on the basic structure of CCK, which further increases the stability of the peptide fragment and prolongs its half-life in vivo. We observed a neuroprotective effect of CCK-8L in APPswe/PS1dE9 (APP/PS1) AD mice. However, its corresponding mechanisms still need to be elucidated. OBJECTIVE This study examined CCK-8L's neuroprotective effects in enhancing cognitive impairment by regulating mitochondrial dynamics through AMPK/Drp1 pathway in the APP/PS1 AD mice. METHODS Behavioural tests are applied to assess competence in cognitive functions. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was performed to observe the ultrastructure of mitochondria of hippocampal neurons, Immunofluorescent staining was employed to assay for Aβ1-42, APP, Adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and dynamin-related protein1 (Drp1). CRISPR/Cas9 was utilized for targeted knockout of the CCKB receptor (CCKBR) in the mouse APP/PS1 hippocampal CA1 region. A model of lentiviral vector-mediated overexpression of APP in N2a cells was constructed. RESULTS In vivo, experiments revealed that CCK analogue and liraglutide significantly alleviated cognitive deficits in APP/PS1 mice, reduced Aβ1-42 expression, and ameliorated l damage, which is associated with CCKBR activation in the hippocampal CA1 region of mice. In vitro tests showed that CCK inhibited mitochondrial fission and promoted fusion through AMPK/Drp1 pathway. CONCLUSIONS CCK analogue ameliorates cognitive deficits and regulates mitochondrial dynamics by activating the CCKB receptor and the AMPK/Drp1 pathway in AD mice.

Abstract
In this retrospective study involving 112 patients with clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), we analyzed clinical significance and prognostic value of the expression of BCCIP protein interacting with BRCA2 and CDKN1A and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4). The expressions of mRNA and the corresponding proteins were evaluated using reverse transcription PCR and immunohistochemistry. In comparison with control samples of renal peritumoral tissue, the expressions of BCCIP and its mRNA in the tumor tissues were significantly down-regulated, while the expressions of GPX4 and the corresponding mRNA were significantly up-regulated. The down-regulation of BCCIP expression was closely related to histological grade, TNM stage, and lymph node metastasis (p<0.05). The GPX4 overexpression was closely related to tumor size, TNM stage, and the presence of distant metastasis. The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that tumor size, TNM stage, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis, expressions of BCCIP and GPX4 correlated with progression-free survival (p<0.05). Multivariate Cox regression showed that down-regulation of BCCIP expression and overexpression of GPX4, TNM stage, and distant metastasis were independent prognostic factors of progression-free survival. Thus, down-regulation of BCCIP expression and overexpression of GPX4 are indicatives of progression of ccRCC with poor prognosis. Hence, the control of expression of these proteins can be considered as a novel target for the treatment of ccRCC.

Abstract
The development of cerium (Ce) single-atom (SA) electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) with high active-site utilization and intrinsic activity has become popular recently but remains challenging. Inspired by an interesting phenomenon that pore-coupling with single-metal cerium sites can accelerate the electron transfer predicted by density functional theory calculations, here, a facile strategy is reported for directional design of a highly active and stable Ce SA catalyst (Ce SA/MC) by the coupling of single-metal Ce-N4 sites and mesopores in nanocarbon via pore-confinement-pyrolysis of Ce/phenanthroline complexes combined with controlling the formation of Ce oxides. This catalyst delivers a comparable ORR catalytic activity with a half-wave potential of 0.845 V versus RHE to the Pt/C catalyst. Also, a Ce SA/MC-based zinc-air battery (ZAB) has exhibited a higher energy density (924 Wh kgZn -1 ) and better long-term cycling durability than a Pt/C-based ZAB. This proposed strategy may open a door for designing efficient rare-earth metal catalysts with single-metal sites coupling with porous structures for next-generation energy devices.

Impact of primary kidney disease on the effects of empagliflozin in patients with chronic kidney disease: secondary analyses of the EMPA-KIDNEY trial. Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol 2024; 12:51-60. [PMID: 38061372 DOI: 10.1016/s2213-8587(23)00322-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/05/2023] [Revised: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 10/25/2023] [Indexed: 12/23/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The EMPA-KIDNEY trial showed that empagliflozin reduced the risk of the primary composite outcome of kidney disease progression or cardiovascular death in patients with chronic kidney disease mainly through slowing progression. We aimed to assess how effects of empagliflozin might differ by primary kidney disease across its broad population. METHODS EMPA-KIDNEY, a randomised, controlled, phase 3 trial, was conducted at 241 centres in eight countries (Canada, China, Germany, Italy, Japan, Malaysia, the UK, and the USA). Patients were eligible if their estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) was 20 to less than 45 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or 45 to less than 90 mL/min per 1·73 m2 with a urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio (uACR) of 200 mg/g or higher at screening. They were randomly assigned (1:1) to 10 mg oral empagliflozin once daily or matching placebo. Effects on kidney disease progression (defined as a sustained ≥40% eGFR decline from randomisation, end-stage kidney disease, a sustained eGFR below 10 mL/min per 1·73 m2, or death from kidney failure) were assessed using prespecified Cox models, and eGFR slope analyses used shared parameter models. Subgroup comparisons were performed by including relevant interaction terms in models. EMPA-KIDNEY is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, NCT03594110. FINDINGS Between May 15, 2019, and April 16, 2021, 6609 participants were randomly assigned and followed up for a median of 2·0 years (IQR 1·5-2·4). Prespecified subgroupings by primary kidney disease included 2057 (31·1%) participants with diabetic kidney disease, 1669 (25·3%) with glomerular disease, 1445 (21·9%) with hypertensive or renovascular disease, and 1438 (21·8%) with other or unknown causes. Kidney disease progression occurred in 384 (11·6%) of 3304 patients in the empagliflozin group and 504 (15·2%) of 3305 patients in the placebo group (hazard ratio 0·71 [95% CI 0·62-0·81]), with no evidence that the relative effect size varied significantly by primary kidney disease (pheterogeneity=0·62). The between-group difference in chronic eGFR slopes (ie, from 2 months to final follow-up) was 1·37 mL/min per 1·73 m2 per year (95% CI 1·16-1·59), representing a 50% (42-58) reduction in the rate of chronic eGFR decline. This relative effect of empagliflozin on chronic eGFR slope was similar in analyses by different primary kidney diseases, including in explorations by type of glomerular disease and diabetes (p values for heterogeneity all >0·1). INTERPRETATION In a broad range of patients with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression, including a wide range of non-diabetic causes of chronic kidney disease, empagliflozin reduced risk of kidney disease progression. Relative effect sizes were broadly similar irrespective of the cause of primary kidney disease, suggesting that SGLT2 inhibitors should be part of a standard of care to minimise risk of kidney failure in chronic kidney disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Alzheimer's disease (AD), the most common type of irreversible dementia, is predicted to affect 152 million people by 2050. Evidence from large-scale preventive randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on modifiable risk variables in Europe has shown that multi-domain lifestyle treatments for older persons at high risk of dementia may be practical and effective. Given the substantial differences between the Chinese and European populations in terms of demographics and living conditions, direct adoption of the European program in China remains unfeasible. Although a RCT has been conducted in China previously, its participants were mainly from rural areas in northern China and, thus, are not representative of the entire nation.There is an urgent need to establish cohorts that represent different economic, cultural, and geographical situations in order to explore implementation strategies and evaluate the effects of early multi-domain interventions more comprehensively and accurately. MEDTODS We developed an integrated intervention procedure implemented in urban neighborhood settings, namely China Initiative for Multi-Domain Intervention (CHINA-IN-MUDI). CHINA-IN-MUDI is a 2-year multicenter open-label cluster-randomised controlled trial centered around a Chinese-style multi-domain intervention to prevent cognitive decline. Participants aged 60-80 years were recruited from a nationally representative study, i.e. China Healthy Aging and Dementia Study cohort. An external harmonization process was carried out to preserve the original FINGER design. Subsequently, we standardized a series of Chinese-style intervention programs to align with cultural and socioeconomic status. Additionally, we expanded the secondary outcome list to include genomic and proteomic analyses. To enhance adherence and facilitate implementation, we leveraged an e-health application. RESULTS Screening commenced in July 2022. Currently, 1,965 participants have been randomized into lifestyle intervention (n = 772) and control groups (n = 1,193). Both the intervention and control groups exhibited similar baseline characteristics. Several lifestyle and vascular risk factors were present, indicating a potential window of opportunity for intervention. The intervention will be completed by 2025. CONCLUSIONS This project will contribute to the evaluation of the effectiveness and safety of intervention strategies in controlling AD risk and reducing clinical events, providing a basis for public health decision-making in China.

Effect of Baimai ointment on lumbar disc herniation: A multicentre, prospective, randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. PHYTOMEDICINE : INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF PHYTOTHERAPY AND PHYTOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 122:155138. [PMID: 37922792 DOI: 10.1016/j.phymed.2023.155138] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/10/2023] [Revised: 09/21/2023] [Accepted: 10/04/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Baimai ointment is a traditional Tibetan topical ointment, which is widely used for various diseases related to the skeletal muscular system and neurological rehabilitation. It has demonstrated good clinical effectiveness. However, there is currently a lack of high-quality evidence regarding the clinical effectiveness of Baimai ointment in treating lumbar disc herniation (LDH). PURPOSE In this study, we conducted a prospective, multicenter, double-blind, randomized controlled trial at eight hospitals in China to investigate the clinical effectiveness of Baimai ointment in the treatment of LDH. METHODS Participants aged 18-65 years were diagnosed as LDH and were randomly assigned to receive either Baimai ointment or placebo. The treatment duration was 2 weeks, with 1-week follow-up after treatment. The primary outcome measures included VAS and JOA score. The secondary outcome measures included Likert scale, compliance with health education and the incidence of rescue therapy. The intervention effects on these outcomes were examined by generalized estimating equations (GEE) with baseline measurement as the covariates. All statistical analysis were performed using SPSS 25.0 and Python 3.11. RESULTS In total, 228 participants were screened from August 25, 2021 to January 31, 2022 at 8 Grade-A tertiary hospitals in China. Finally, 194 eligible participants were randomly assigned to the Baimai ointment group and placebo group in a 1:1 ratio. At the end of 2-week treatment (14th day) and 1-week follow-up after treatment (21st day), the decrease of VAS reached 39.57% (95% CI: 34.29, 44.86) and 36.85% (95% CI: 32.04, 41.66), the decrease in JOA score reached 27.74% (95% CI: 23.05, 32.43) and 26.25 % (95% CI: 20.82, 31.69) in Baimai ointment group. A significant group-by-time interaction indicated a difference for VAS between intervention over time (χ2 = 26.81, p = 0.020), but JOA score and Likert scale did not reach statistical significance. The adjusted net difference of VAS was statistically significant from 10th day of treatment (p < 0.05). After 2-week treatment, the relief rate of VAS was 30.85% (21.95, 41.34) in Baimai ointment group and 22.73% (14.75, 33.13) in placebo group (χ2 = 1.53, p = 0.217). It demonstrated Baimai ointment in improving VAS and JOA score was valuable from a clinical view by measuring MCID. Moreover, the Likert scale, the incidence of rescue therapy and compliance with health education did not reach statistical significance. There was no evidence showing that Baimai ointment could cause serious adverse reactions in treating patients with LDH. CONCLUSION Baimai ointment demonstrated significantly higher rates of symptom relief compared to the placebo for LDH patients, particularly in terms of relieving pain. Moreover, further high-quality randomized controlled trials were necessary to confirm these positive results. The study protocol is registered with the Clinical Trials Registry (registration number: ISRCTN11912818).

Abstract
Objective: To explore the trend and influencing factors of serum lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)) concentration over time in Chinese community populations. Methods: This study is a prospective cohort study. The participants were enrolled from Chinese Multi-provincial Cohort Study- Beijing projects, completed the cardiovascular disease risk factor surveys in 2002 and 2007, and the serum Lp (a) concentration were measured. Based on the Lp(a) concentration at baseline (2002) and follow-up (2007), the participants were classified into subgroups of <30.0 mg/dl (1 mg/dl=0.01 g/L) group, 30.0 to 49.9 mg/dl group, and ≥50.0 mg/dl group, respectively. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to identify influencing factors associated with Lp (a) absolute change (≥20 mg/dl) and relative change (≥20%) within 5 years. Results: Among 1 955 participants with age of (56.5±8.0) years old and 821 male (42.0%) at baseline, there were 1 657 (84.8%), 184 (9.4%) and 114 (5.8%) participants in Lp(a)<30.0 mg/dl group, 30.0 to 49.9 mg/dl group and ≥50.0 mg/dl group, respectively. Among the baseline Lp(a) concentration of 30.0-49.9 mg/dl group, 68 (37.0%) participants progressed to Lp(a) ≥50.0 mg/dl after 5 years follow-up, and 102 (55.4%) remained at this level. Participants with baseline Lp(a)<30.0 mg/dl (92%, 1 524/1 657) or Lp(a)≥50.0 mg/dl (94.7%, 108/114) tended to be maintained at their respective levels. The results of the multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that, in addition to the high level of baseline Lp(a) concentration, family history of cardiovascular disease, elevated fasting blood glucose and usage of oral lipid-lowering drugs were the influencing factors of Lp(a) changes over time (P<0.05). Conclusions: Adults with borderline-high Lp(a) concentrations (30.0 to 49.9 mg/dl) could be considered for repeated testing, especially for those with a family history of cardiovascular disease, elevated fasting blood glucose and usage of statins.

Abstract
m6A modification is the most abundant mRNA modifications and plays an integral role in various biological processes in eukaryotes. However, the role of m6A regulators in rheumatoid arthritis remains unknown. To determine the expression of m6A RNA methylation regulators in rheumatoid arthritis and their possible functional and prognostic value. In this study, we performed differential analysis in the comprehensive gene expression database GSE93272 dataset between non-rheumatoid arthritis patients and rheumatoid arthritis patients to obtain 15 important m6A regulators. A random forest model and lasso regression were used to screen the five most important m6A regulators to predict the risk of developing rheumatoid arthritis. After further validation using in vitro qPCR experiments, a nomogram model was developed based on the four most important m6A regulators (ELAVL1, WTAP, YTHDF1, and ALKBH5). Immuno-infiltration analysis and consensus clustering analysis were then performed. An analysis of the decision curve showed that the nomogram model could be beneficial to patients. According to selected important m6A regulators, patients with rheumatoid arthritis were classified into two m6A models (ClusterA and ClusterB) via consensus approach. Activated B cells, CD56dim natural killer cells, immature B cells, monocytes, natural killer T cells, and T lymphocytes were associated with ClusterA in immune infiltration analysis. Importantly, immune infiltration in patients with high ELAVL1 expression was strikingly similar to ClusterA. m6A regulators play a non-negligible role in the development of rheumatoid arthritis. A study of m6A patterns may provide future therapeutic options for rheumatoid arthritis.

Abstract
Pathogenic mutations in the OTOF gene cause autosomal recessive hearing loss (DFNB9), one of the most common forms of auditory neuropathy. There is no biological treatment for DFNB9. Here, we designed an OTOF gene therapy agent by dual-adeno-associated virus 1 (AAV1) carrying human OTOF coding sequences with the expression driven by the hair cell-specific promoter Myo15, AAV1-hOTOF. To develop a clinical application of AAV1-hOTOF gene therapy, we evaluated its efficacy and safety in animal models using pharmacodynamics, behavior, and histopathology. AAV1-hOTOF inner ear delivery significantly improved hearing in Otof-/- mice without affecting normal hearing in wild-type mice. AAV1 was predominately distributed to the cochlea, although it was detected in other organs such as the CNS and the liver, and no obvious toxic effects of AAV1-hOTOF were observed in mice. To further evaluate the safety of Myo15 promoter-driven AAV1-transgene, AAV1-GFP was delivered into the inner ear of Macaca fascicularis via the round window membrane. AAV1-GFP transduced 60%-94% of the inner hair cells along the cochlear turns. AAV1-GFP was detected in isolated organs and no significant adverse effects were detected. These results suggest that AAV1-hOTOF is well tolerated and effective in animals, providing critical support for its clinical translation.

Comparison of Monotherapies and Combination Therapy of Tamsulosin and Tadalafil for Treating Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms Caused by Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia with or without Erectile Dysfunction: A Meta-Analysis. Urol Int 2023; 108:89-99. [PMID: 38081154 DOI: 10.1159/000535606] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2023] [Accepted: 11/29/2023] [Indexed: 04/04/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND There is limited research into the efficacy and safety of tadalafil combined with tamsulosin for the treatment of lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) caused by benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), with or without erectile dysfunction (ED). Therefore, we aimed to investigate the efficacy and safety of combination therapy compared to that of monotherapy. METHODS We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, SinoMed, CNKI, WanFang Data Service Platform, and ClinicalTrials.gov to identify eligible studies. A total of 639 articles were retrieved, of which 12 were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) published as of February 2023 and included in this meta-analysis. RESULTS After screening 639 articles, 12 RCTs including 1,531 subjects were considered eligible for the meta-analysis. The results showed that the total International Prostate System Score (total IPSS), maximum flow rate (Qmax), and quality of life (QoL) in tadalafil combined with tamsulosin were significantly better than those in monotherapy. Compared with tadalafil monotherapy, combination therapy mainly improved IPSS voiding. As for postvoid residual urine (PVR), the combination therapy did not improve PVR compared to the tadalafil group, but significantly improved PVR compared to the tamsulosin group. For the International Index of Erectile Function (IIEF), the curative effect of the combined group was better than that of the tamsulosin group but not better than that of the tadalafil group. In terms of safety, the adverse reactions (AEs) in the combined treatment group were significantly higher than those in the monotherapy group. None of the 12 RCTs reported serious adverse events. CONCLUSIONS Tadalafil combined with tamsulosin was more effective in the treatment of male LUTS/BPH, with or without ED, on the improvement of total IPSS, QoL, and Qmax. However, the benefits of combination therapy for ED remain unclear. However, combination therapy seemed to have a higher incidence of adverse reactions.

Abstract
Cohort studies have unique advantages such as good representation of subjects, large sample size, and long follow-up time, but the difficulty in controlling confounders is the main obstacle to their insufficient causal inference. On the contrary, randomized controlled trial (RCT) research has absolute advantages in controlling confounding factors, but human, material, and ethical aspects limit its organizational implementation. With the accumulation of real-world cohort research data in recent years, emulated target trial (ETT) following the design principles of RCT research in large cohort studies has attracted more attention. ETT research based on cohort data produces more accurate research conclusions and provides new ideas for real-world cohort data analysis. This paper aims to introduce the basic principles, design elements, and advantages and challenges of ETT research to provide a reference for medical researchers to carry out ETT.
