Impact of modified-release opioid use on clinical outcomes following total hip and knee arthroplasty: a propensity score-matched cohort study

Modified-release opioids are often prescribed for the management of moderate to severe acute pain following total hip and knee arthroplasty, despite recommendations against their use due to increasing concerns regarding harm. The primary objective of this multicentre study was to examine the impact of modified-release opioid use on the incidence of opioid-related adverse events compared with immediate-release opioid use, among adult inpatients following total hip or knee arthroplasty. Data for total hip and knee arthroplasty inpatients receiving an opioid analgesic for postoperative analgesia during hospitalisation were collected from electronic medical records of three tertiary metropolitan hospitals in Australia. The primary outcome was the incidence of opioid-related adverse events during hospital admission. Patients who received modified with or without immediate-release opioids were matched to those receiving immediate-release opioids only (1:1) using nearest neighbour propensity score matching with patient and clinical characteristics as covariates. This included total opioid dose received. In the matched cohorts, patients given modified-release opioids (n = 347) experienced a higher incidence of opioid-related adverse events overall, compared with those given immediate-release opioids only (20.5%, 71/347 vs. 12.7%, 44/347; difference in proportions 7.8% [95%CI 2.3–13.3%]). Modified-release opioid use was associated with an increased risk of harm when used for acute pain during hospitalisation after total hip or knee arthroplasty.     

Synthesis and automated fluorine-18 radiolabeling of new PSMA-617 derivatives with a CuAAC radiosynthetic approach

In the last decade, the development of new radiopharmaceuticals for the imaging and therapy of prostate cancer has been a highly active and important area of research, especially focusing on the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), an antigen which is upregulated in prostate, as well as in other tumor cells. A large variety of PSMA ligands have been radiolabeled, to date. Among the various derivatives, PSMA-617 resulted to be one of the most interesting in terms of interaction with the antigen and clinical properties, and its lutetium-177 labeled version has recently been approved by regulatory agencies for therapeutic purposes. For this reasons, the radiolabeling with fluorine-18 of a PSMA-617 derivative might be of interest. Beside other methodologies to radiolabel macromolecules with fluorine-18, the “click-chemistry” approach resulted to be very useful, and the copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) is considered one of most efficient and reliable. This paper proposes the synthesis of a suitable precursor for the radiolabeling with fluorine-18 of a new PSMA-617 derivative. The whole radiosynthetic procedure has been fully automated, and the final product, which proved to be stable in plasma, has been obtained with radiochemical yield and purity suitable for subsequent preclinical studies.     

地鳖纤溶蛋白口服时间/pH依赖结肠靶向微囊的开发及评价＊

地鳖中的纤溶活性蛋白是从地鳖中提取的具有抗栓及抗肿瘤作用的有效成分，其口服易被上消化道酶分解从而限制了应用。采用恒流泵滴制法开发地鳖纤溶活性蛋白时间/pH依赖口服结肠靶向微囊（EnpolypHaga fibrinolytic protein oral colon targeting microcapsules， CTM-EFP）。采用单因素实验和正交实验相结合的方法寻找到包封率为60.17 % ± 2.72 %、载药量为15.50 % ± 0.44 % 的最佳配方。扫描电子显微镜（SEM）显示微囊呈球形、表面光滑，在人工肠液中24 h的累积释放度为99.53 % ± 0.69 %，在人工胃液中24 h累积释放度为7.43 ± 1.04 %，通过时间/pH依赖达到结肠靶向作用。CTM-EFP在人工肠液中的体外释放曲线符合Korsmeyer方程，提示地鳖纤溶活性蛋白（EnpolypHaga fibrinolytic protein， EFP）是通过扩散和侵蚀机制结合释放的。CTM-EFP为EFP的口服给药提供了一种新的剂型，为EFP应用于临床提供参考。     

外伤性晶状体脱位合并周边隐匿性视网膜病变的临床特征及预后分析

目的观察分析眼球钝挫伤合并外伤性晶状体脱位患者周边隐匿性视网膜病变的临床特点及预后。 方法本研究纳入2013年1月至2020年1月在柳州市人民医院眼科住院诊断为眼球钝挫伤合并外伤性晶状体脱位，并行23G微创玻璃体切割联合白内障摘除手术的72例（72眼）患者。根据裂隙灯和超声生物显微镜（UBM）检查，将患者分为晶状体不全脱位组和全脱位组，详细记录2组患者的术中周边视网膜病变情况，并分析其临床特征及疗效。 结果眼球钝挫伤合并外伤性晶状体脱位患者中有周边隐匿性视网膜病变的占72.22%，其中晶状体不全脱位组发生率高达80.95%，显著大于晶状体全脱位组的60.00%（P＜0.05）。2组患者的周边隐匿性视网膜病变均以隐匿性视网膜裂孔、变性和出血为最常见。所有患者术后视网膜情况稳定，视力预后较好。 结论眼球钝挫伤合并外伤性晶状体脱位患者常出现周边隐匿性视网膜病变，最常见的是视网膜裂孔、出血、变性。23G微创玻璃体切割联合白内障摘除手术是有效治疗手段，具有创伤小、并发症少的优势。

CD19+CD24hiCD38hi B细胞比例预测肝移植术后急性细胞性排斥反应发生的临床研究

目的分析肝移植术后受者外周血CD19⁺CD24^hiCD38^hi B细胞占单个核细胞比例变化情况及其与急性细胞性排斥反应(ACR)之间的关系。 方法回顾性分析2013年12月至2015年12月在浙江大学医学院附属第一医院接受心脏死亡器官捐献肝移植的80例成人受者临床资料，根据术后是否发生ACR，将受者分为ACR组(25例)和非ACR组(55例)。术前、术后各个时间点抽取参加研究者静脉血并分离外周血单个核细胞，加入异硫氰酸荧光素-单克隆鼠抗人CD19抗体、藻红蛋白-单克隆鼠抗人CD24抗体和别藻蓝蛋白-单克隆鼠抗人CD38抗体，流式细胞仪检测各组CD19⁺CD24^hiCD38^hi B细胞百分比。采用t检验和单因素方差分析比较正态分布计量资料，采用χ²检验比较计数资料，采用Kaplan-Meier法绘制受试者工作特征曲线(ROC曲线)。P<0.05为差异有统计学意义。 结果ACR组、非ACR组受者术前外周血平均CD19⁺CD24^hiCD38^hi B细胞比例分别为(3.13±0.91)%、(3.49±0.83)%，差异无统计学意义(t＝1.636，P>0.05)。ACR组术后发生ACR前外周血平均CD19⁺CD24^hiCD38^hi B细胞比例为(1.87±0.70)%。非ACR组受者术后3个月、6个月和1年外周血平均CD19⁺CD24^hiCD38^hi B细胞比例分别为(1.64±0.52)%、(1.63±0.56)%和(2.04±1.24)%，术后3、6个月平均值均低于术前和术后1年，差异均有统计学意义(P均<0.05)。ACR组受者发生ACR时外周血平均CD19⁺CD24^hiCD38^hi B细胞比例为(0.8±0.5)%，低于发生ACR前的平均水平(t＝5.752，P<0.05)，且低于非ACR组术后3个月、6个月和1年的平均水平(P<0.05)。ACR组受者接受抗排斥反应治疗后，CD19⁺CD24^hiCD38^hi B细胞比例也逐渐增加，ACR发生后7 d为(0.84±0.08)%，与ACR发生时相比差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)；而发生30 d后达(1.65±0.18)%，与ACR发生时相比差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。当截断值为1.015%时，CD19⁺CD24^hiCD38^hi B细胞比例预测ACR发生的敏感度和特异度分别为0.786和0.702，ROC曲线下面积为0.775(95%CI: 0.671~0.879，P<0.05)。 结论CD19⁺CD24^hiCD38^hi B细胞比例下降与肝移植术后ACR反应发生有关，并可作为预测ACR发生的细胞标志物。
