多功能套针浮刺疗法治疗神经根型颈椎病——一项随机对照观察研究＊

目的 评价多功能套针浮刺疗法对神经根型颈椎病的临床疗效。方法 选取256例神经根型颈椎病患者，按随机数字表法分为观察组与对照组各128例。观察组应用多功能套针浮刺疗法进行干预，对照组为常规针刺治疗。两组患者均治疗7天。分别于治疗前后观察两组患者的简化McGill疼痛问卷（SF-MPQ）、国际标准颈椎功能障碍指数（NDI）和田中靖久颈椎病症状20分法量表评分，并于治疗结束后3个月观察复发率。结果 两组患者治疗后的SF-MPQ量表评分、NDI量表评分及田中靖久颈椎病症状20分法评分与治疗前相比均有改善（P<0.05），且观察组优于对照组（P<0.05）；两组患者于治疗后3个月随访，SF-MPQ量表评分与治疗后相比均有改善，且观察组优于对照组（P<0.05）；观察组临床疗效总有效率为96.88%，愈显率为81.25%；对照组总有效率为78.13%，愈显率为46.88%，观察组优于对照组（P<0.05）。结论 应用多功能套针浮刺疗法治疗神经根型颈椎病临床疗效显著，见效较快，可有效降低其复发率，且作用稳定，效果持久，值得临床推广应用。

不同针灸疗法治疗寻常痤疮的网状Meta分析＊

目的 采用网状Meta分析方法，评价针刺、火针、艾灸等不同针灸疗法对寻常痤疮（acne vulgaris， AC）临床有效率及复发率的影响。方法 计算机检索PubMed、Embase、Cochrane、Web of Science、CINAHL、中国知网（China National Knowledge Infrastructure， CNKI）、万方数据库（WanFang Data）、中国生物医学文献数据库（China Biology Medicine disc， CBM）和维普中文期刊服务平台（VIP Database），搜集针灸疗法治疗寻常痤疮的随机对照试验（randomized controlled trail， RCT），检索时间均为建库至2021年3月，文献筛选、资料提取及偏倚风险评价均由两名研究者独立进行。数据分析使用Stata16.0软件。结果 纳入42项RCT，共3911例寻常痤疮患者。数据分析结果显示，临床总有效率：艾灸、放血、放血+穴位注射、放血+针刺、火针优于西药（P<0.05），放血、放血+穴位注射、放血+针刺、火针、穴位埋线优于针刺疗法（P<0.05），放血+针刺疗法优于自血疗法（P<0.05），累计排序概率曲线下面积（surface under the cumulative，SUCRA）显示放血+针刺治疗寻常痤疮总有效率最高；复发率：放血疗法+穴位注射优于电针（P<0.05），SUCRA结果显示针刺+自血疗法治疗寻常痤疮复发率最低。结论 放血联合针刺疗法在提高总有效率上具有最好的疗效，针刺联合自血疗法可有效降低复发率，受纳入研究所限，以上结论尚需更多大样本、高质量RCT进一步验证。     

多维价值框架推动思政教学——药事法规课程思政建设探索

目的： 探究药事法规课程思政建设的思路与实施路径，为高等学校药学相关专业本科药事法规课程思政建设提供参考方法： 基于《高等学校课程思政建设指导纲要》的文件要求，汇总分析药事法规课程思政建设要点与思政元素，结合课堂内外资源，提出课程思政建设多维价值框架，并应用于药事法规课程思政教学中。结果与结论： 在课程思政教学中，可遵循“三结合，两巩固，一推动”的多维价值框架，将社会主义核心价值观、职业使命感、民族自豪感、中医药文化自信、家国情怀等思政元素融入其中。专业课程需起到良好的思政教学作用，但应注意坚持以学生为中心，做到“润物细无声”，有效把握不同课程思政元素的应用，并重视任课教师的言传身教，还需要对课程思政建设效果进行评价与反思，以使课程建设不断完善。     

Comment on “Outcomes of curative liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with cirrhosis”

The present letter to the editor is in response to the research “Outcomes of curative liver resection for hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with cirrhosis” by Elshaarawy et al in World J Gastroenterol 2021; 13(5): 424–439. The preoperative assessment of the liver reserve function in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients with cirrhosis is crucial, and there is no universal consensus on how to assess it. Based on a retrospective study, Elshaarawy et al investigated the impact of various classical clinical indicators on liver failure and the prognosis after hepatectomy in HCC patients with cirrhosis. We recommend that we should strive to explore new appraisal indicators, such as the indocyanine green retention rate at 15 min.     

First-line nivolumab plus chemotherapy vs chemotherapy in patients with advanced gastric,gastroesophageal junction and esophageal adenocarcinoma: CheckMate 649 Chinese subgroup analysis

First-line chemotherapy for advanced/metastatic human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative gastric/gastroesophageal junction cancer (GC/GEJC) has poor median overall survival (OS; <1 year). We report efficacy and safety results from Chinese patients in the phase III global CheckMate 649 study of nivolumab plus chemotherapy vs chemotherapy for the first-line treatment of GC/GEJC/esophageal adenocarcinoma (EAC). Chinese patients with previously untreated advanced or metastatic GC/GEJC/EAC were randomized to receive nivolumab (360 mg Q3W or 240 mg Q2W) plus chemotherapy (XELOX [capecitabine and oxaliplatin] Q3W or FOLFOX [oxaliplatin, leucovorin and 5-fluorouracil] Q2W), nivolumab plus ipilimumab (not reported) or chemotherapy alone. OS, blinded independent central review-assessed progression-free survival (PFS), objective response rate (ORR), duration of response (DOR) and safety are reported. Of 1581 patients enrolled and randomized, 208 were Chinese. In these patients, nivolumab plus chemotherapy resulted in clinically meaningful improvement in median OS (14.3 vs 10.2 months; HR 0.61 [95% CI: 0.44-0.85]), median PFS (8.3 vs 5.6 months; HR 0.57 [95% CI: 0.40-0.80]), ORR (66% vs 45%) and median DOR (12.2 vs 5.6 months) vs chemotherapy, respectively. The safety profile was acceptable, with no new safety signals observed. Consistent with results from the global primary analysis of CheckMate 649, nivolumab plus chemotherapy demonstrated a clinically meaningful improvement in OS and PFS and higher response rate vs chemotherapy and an acceptable safety profile in Chinese patients. Nivolumab plus chemotherapy represents a new standard first-line treatment for Chinese patients with non-HER2-positive advanced GC/GEJC/EAC.
