    Abstract Distal renal tubular acidosis (RTA) is a rare adverse reaction to immune checkpoint inhibitors, which only occurs in a small number of cases. To the best of our knowledge, distal RTA caused by sintilimab, a programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) inhibitor, has not been previously reported. In the present study, the case of a 62-year-old man with metastatic cardiac carcinoma treated with sintilimab anti-PD-1 therapy was reported. After the fourth administration of sintilimab, the treatment course was interrupted by metabolic hyperchloraemic acidosis with hypokalaemia. Following urine and blood tests, immunotherapy-induced distal RTA was suspected. Treatment with sintilimab and chemotherapy was stopped, and treatment with sodium bicarbonate and potassium citrate was started, which resulted in an adequate response. The present study provides the first case of distal RTA secondary to sintilimab treatment.

    Abstract Objective: To compare the neonatal outcomes of progestin-primed ovarian stimulation (PPOS) and flexible gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist protocols.
    Methods: This was a retrospective propensity score-matched (PSM) cohort study. Women who underwent their first frozen embryo transfer (FET) cycle with freezing of all embryos followed by PPOS or GnRH antagonist protocols between January 2016 and January 2022 were included. Patients using PPOS were matched with the patients using GnRH antagonist at a 1:1 ratio. The main focus of this study was the neonatal outcomes of singleton live births, including preterm birth (PTB), low birth weight (LBW), small for gestational age (SGA), macrosomia and large for gestational age (LGA).
    Results: After 1:1 PSM, a total of 457 PPOS and 457 GnRH antagonist protocols were included for analysis. The average starting dose of gonadotropin (275.1 ± 68.1 vs. 249.3 ± 71.3, P<0.01) and total dose of gonadotropin (2799.6 ± 579.9 vs. 2634.4 ± 729.1, P<0.01) were significantly higher in the PPOS protocol than in the GnRH antagonist protocol. The other baseline and cycle characteristics were comparable between the two protocols. The rates of PTB (P=0.14), LBW (P=0.11), SGA (P=0.31), macrosomia (P=0.11) and LGA (P=0.49) did not differ significantly between the two groups. A total of 4 patients in the PPOS group and 3 patients in the GnRH antagonist group qualified as having congenital malformations.
    Conclusion: PPOS resulted in singleton neonatal outcomes similar to those of a GnRH antagonist protocol. The application of the PPOS protocol is a safe option for infertility patients.

    Abstract The occurrence, distribution, and risk of 11 typical pharmaceutical and personal care products(PPCPs) were investigated in the major rivers and bay areas of Sanya City. The results showed that the significant seasonal variations in eleven PPCPs in major rivers of the city were affected by intense tourism alongside reduced annual runoff. In winter, all 11 PPCPs had 100% detection frequencies, of which CFI had the highest concentration at 1449.10 ng·L

    Abstract The construction of low-carbon cities is an optimal means to balance the competing interests of economic growth and carbon emission reduction. This study focuses on the optimization of land use patterns with a low carbon orientation, taking the Chengdu-Chongqing Economic Circle (CCEC), the fourth-largest economic growth pole in China, as an example. The panel data regression analysis is carried out to identify the dynamic correlations between the landscape changes and the carbon emission induced by land use and land cover change (LICE) of each city, each year, for the last 20 years. The results show that the CCEC has witnessed a 142.85% increase in carbon emissions during the period studied, with the growth of built-up land contributing 94% of total carbon emissions from 2000 to 2020. By constructing the panel regression model, this study finds that the intensity of carbon emissions increases significantly as the urban built-up land area and the agglomeration of artificial structures increase. The conversion of cropland, which dominates the landscape pattern, to built-up land has led to further fragmentation of the landscape pattern and a reduction in LPI, thus increasing carbon emissions. And a more complex regional landscape pattern will have a positive impact on carbon emission reduction. Based on the above findings, suggestions are articulated for carbon emission reduction.

    Abstract In recent years, concern around the impact of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) on the environment has grown. In order to investigate the influence of tourists on emissions and ecological risk of PPCPs, the concentrations of thirty PPCPs were measured in influent and effluent from the four largest wastewater treatment plants, as well as surface river water at six sites in a famous tourist city (Sanya City, China). Substantial increasing trends on PPCPs levels were observed from low to high tourist season (ng/L to µg/L, or µg/L to mg/L). Caffeine (CAF) was dominant with concentrations as high as 185 µg/L. Emission load per capita was estimated to explore the contribution of different populations. Tourist migrant population might be a dominant contributor, as they were mostly elderly people who took long-term medication. The predicted no-effect concentration was derived using the species sensitivity distribution method to calculate the ecological risk quotient (RQ) of the dominant PPCPs. Additionally, RQs of seven dominant PPCPs in rivers were > 1, indicating high chronic ecological risk for freshwater ecosystems. The results of this study will assist in raising the awareness and improving management of emerging pollutants in less industrialized regions.

    Abstract We previously explored the associations between β-hCG on the 14th day post-embryo transfer (ET) and reproductive outcomes and established a series of cutoff values to predict different outcomes. The aim of this study was to explore the parameters associated with β-hCG levels and establish β-hCG cutoff values in women undergoing single blastocyst transfer. The patients were transferred with either fresh or frozen-thawed blastocysts. Serum β-hCG levels were compared among different groups. Cutoff values of β-hCG were established and applied to divide the patients into different groups, among which the β-hCG groups were compared. Develop day negatively affected β-HCG levels in those who were pregnant or gave live birth (P < 0.001, 0.008). Inner cell mass significantly affected β-hCG levels in women who were pregnant or gave live birth (P = 0.013, 0.044). Trophectoderm significantly affected β-hCG levels in women with most reproductive outcomes, except biochemical pregnancy (BP) (P = 0.184). The cutoff values of β-hCG for predicting positive outcomes were 194.1, 503.0, 1048.0, and 2590.5 mIU/L. BP rates and adverse pregnancy outcome rates were significantly lower in the higher β-hCG groups (P < 0.001). Shorter gestational age and lower birth weight and length (P = 0.005, 0.041, 0.003) were observed in the lowest-concentration β-hCG group. The application of a single β-hCG measurement was sufficient to predict reproductive outcome in women undergoing blastocyst transfer, under the full consideration of blastocyst parameters. However, the association between β-hCG and obstetric outcomes remains to be investigated and fully explained.

    Abstract Introduction: In recent years, oral antineoplastic agents are commonly used in antitumor therapy. The interaction between drugs may affect the efficacy of drugs or lead to adverse reactions. We describe the case of a patient who presented acute liver injury, possibly induced by the concomitant use of metoprolol and dacomitinib.
    Case report: A 62-year-old male patient with non-small cell lung cancer was admitted for anti-cancer treatment. He regularly took metoprolol tartrate 12.5 mg, 2/day for hypertension. He was treated with dacomitinib according to EGFR Exon21 L858R positive. After 3 days of dacomitinib, the patient's alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and glutathione aminotransferase (AST) increased, and the heart rate and systolic blood pressure of the patient decreased significantly. The patient was diagnosed with acute liver injury.
    Management and outcomes: Dacomitinib was discontinued and glutathione, magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate were given to treat acute liver injury. Two days after discontinued dacomitinib, the patient's heart rate increased, but the ALT and AST of the patient elevated again. Metoprolol tartrate was subsequently discontinued and the ALT and AST gradually decreased and the patient discharged from the hospital eight days later with his liver function improved.
    Discussion: To our knowledge, this is the first case in the literature of acute liver injury possibly induced by the interaction between metoprolol and dacomitinib. The interaction most likely arose because dacomitinib is a CYP2D6 strong inhibitor and could therefore impair the metabolism of metoprolol (a CYP2D6 substrate) and increase its serum concentration. Therefore, hepatic function should be carefully monitored in patients treated with dacomitinib and metoprolol and other inhibitors or inducers of CYP2D6.

    Abstract The present study aimed to explore the biological characteristics of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells and the mechanism of chemosensitivity through the role of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway mediated by BRAF gene silencing. Following cell transfection and grouping, an MTT assay detected the activity of NSCLC cells, a scratch wound test assessed the migration ability, flow cytometry using PI staining detected the cell cycle phase, TUNEL and flow cytometry through Annexin V-PI staining assessed the apoptosis, and colony formation was used to detect the sensitivity of lung cancer cells to cisplatin chemotherapy. Furthermore, the relative expression levels of BRAF, PTEN, PI3K, mTOR mRNA were assessed by RT-qPCR, and the protein expression levels of BRAF, PTEN, PI3K, phosphorylated (p)-PI3K, Akt, p-Akt, mTOR, p-mTOR, cisplatin resistance-related enzymes ERCC1 and BRCA1, apoptotic proteins Bax and Bcl-2 were assessed by western blotting. Compared with the control group and NC group, there were differences in decreased BRAF mRNA expression levels in the small interfering (si)BRAF group and siBRAF + IGF-1 group (both P<0.05). In addition, compared with the control group, the siBRAF, NVP-BEZ235 and siBRAF + NVP-BEZ235 groups had significant decreased cell viability at 2-6 days, decreased migration ability, shortened proportion of S-phase cells, increased proportion of G

    Abstract Because traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is a complex mixture of multiple components, the application of methodologies for evaluating single-component Western medicine in TCM studies may have certain limitations. Appropriate strategies that recognize the integrality of TCM and connect to TCM theories remain to be developed. Yang-Xin-Ding-Ji (YXDJ) capsule is originally from a classical TCM formula used for the treatment of arrhythmia. In this study, we used UPLC-Q-TOF-MS detection method, coupled with the metabolic research and network pharmacology analysis, to study the scientific connotation of the YXDJ capsule. A total of 33 absorbed constituents and 23 metabolites were identified or tentatively characterized in dosed plasma and urine, and the possible metabolic pathways were mainly methylation, oxidation, sulfation, glucuronidation, and deglucosylation. We optimized the conventional process ways of network pharmacology by collecting targets based on absorbed constituents into the blood. The constituents-target disease and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes pathway analysis revealed that 24 absorbed constituents, 32 target genes, and 10 key pathways were probably related to the efficacy of the YXDJ capsule against arrhythmia. The results provided a scientific basis for understanding the bioactive compounds and the pharmacological mechanism of the YXDJ capsule.
