AIMEvaluate the cost utility of menopausal hormone therapy for women in China.MATERIALS AND METHODSA bespoke Markov cost utility model was developed to evaluate a cohort of symptomatic perimenopausal women (>45 years) with intact uterus in China in accordance with China's Pharmacoeconomic guideline. Short (5-year) and long (10-year) treatment durations were evaluated over a lifetime model time horizon with 12-month cycle duration. Societal and healthcare payer perspectives were evaluated in the context of a primary care provider/prescriber, outpatient setting with inpatient care for patients with chronic conditions. Disease risk and mortality parameters were derived from focused literature searches, and China Diagnosis-related Group cost data was included. Comprehensive scenario, univariate and probabilistic sensitivity analysis were undertaken along with independent validation. This is the first model to include MHT-related disease risks.RESULTSAccording to base case results, the total cost for MHT was 22,516$ (150,106¥) and total quality adjusted life years 12.32 versus total cost of no MHT 30,824$ (205,495¥) and total quality adjusted life years 11.16 resulting in a dominant incremental cost effectiveness ratio of -7,184$ (-47,898¥) per QALY. Results hold true over a range of univariate deterministic sensitivity and scenario analyses. Probabilistic analysis showed a 91% probability of being cost effective at a willingness to pay threshold of three times Gross Domestic Product per capita in China.CONCLUSIONContingent on the structure and assumptions of the model, combination of estradiol plus dydrogesterone MHT is potentially cost saving in symptomatic women over the age of 45 years in China.

Background:Type 2 diabetes-associated cognitive dysfunction (DCD) is a chronic complication of diabetes that has gained international attention. The medicinal compound Banxia Xiexin Decoction (BXXXD) from traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has shown potential in improving insulin resistance, regulating endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS), and inhibiting cell apoptosis through various pathways. However, the specific mechanism of action and medical value of BXXXD remain unclear.Methods:We utilized TCMSP databases to screen the chemical constituents of BXXXD and identified DCD disease targets through relevant databases. By using Stitch and String databases, we imported the data into Cytoscape 3.8.0 software to construct a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network and subsequently identified core targets through network topology analysis. The core targets were subjected to Gene Ontology (GO) functional enrichment and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analyses. The results were further validated through in vitro experiments.Results:Network pharmacology analysis revealed the screening of 1490 DCD-related targets and 190 agents present in BXXXD. The topological analysis and enrichment analysis conducted using Cytoscape software identified 34 core targets. Additionally, GO and KEGG pathway analyses yielded 104 biological targets and 97 pathways, respectively. BXXXD exhibited its potential in treating DCD by controlling synaptic plasticity and conduction, suppressing apoptosis, reducing inflammation, and acting as an antioxidant. In a high glucose (HG) environment, the expression of JNK, Foxo3a, SIRT1, ATG7, Lamp2, and LC3 was downregulated. BXXXD intervention on HT22 cells potentially involved inhibiting excessive oxidative stress, promoting neuronal autophagy, and increasing the expression levels of JNK, SIRT1, Foxo3a, ATG7, Lamp2, and LC3. Furthermore, the neuroprotective effect of BXXXD was partially blocked by SP600125, while quercetin enhanced the favorable role of BXXXD in the HG environment.Conclusion:BXXXD exerts its effects on DCD through multiple components, targets, levels, and pathways. It modulates the JNK/SIRT1/Foxo3a signaling pathway to mitigate autophagy inhibition and apoptotic damage in HT22 cells induced by HG. These findings provide valuable perspectives and concepts for future clinical trials and fundamental research.

Association Between Inflammatory Biomarkers and Contrast-induced Acute Kidney Injury in ACS Patients Undergoing Percutaneous Coronary Intervention: A Cross-sectional Study

Article

Author: Wang, Dong ; Qiao, Yong ; Yang, Zhanneng ; Yan, Gaoliang ; Tang, Chengchun

The present study aimed to evaluate the predictive role of inflammatory biomarkers in the development of contrast-induced acute kidney injury (CI-AKI) in acute coronary syndrome (ACS) patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The inflammatory biomarkers assessed were: platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), derived neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (dNLR), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte*platelet ratio (NLPR), systemic inflammatory index (SII), and systemic inflammation response index (SIRI). Overall, 950 patients undergoing PCI were enrolled. The frequency of CI-AKI was 15.2% (n = 144). The levels of NLR, MLR, NLPR, SII, and SIRI were higher in the CI-AKI group than in the Non–CI-AKI group (P < .05). The addition of NLR ≥2.96, dNLR ≥2.08, NLPR ≥.012, SII ≥558.04, and SIRI ≥1.13 to the Mehran score model significantly increased the area under the curve (P < .05). Multivariable logistic regression analyses indicated that inflammatory biomarkers were significantly associated with CI-AKI, including NLR ≥2.96 (OR = 1.588, P = .017), dNLR ≥2.08 (OR = 1.686, P = .007), SII ≥558.04 (OR = 1.521, P = .030), and SIRI ≥1.13 (OR = 1.601, P = .017). Therefore, inflammation is associated with the development of CI-AKI, and preoperative hematological inflammatory markers could predict the risk of CI-AKI in ACS patients undergoing PCI.
