RESUMEN
Compared with acute pancreatitis caused by other factors， hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis often has a higher rate of severe conditions， greater difficulties in predicting prognosis， and a more complex and unclear pathogenesis. At present， the pathogenesis of hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis may be associated with the elevation of serum free fatty acids， but the lipid-lowering treatment regimens do not reduce the incidence rate of this disease. Recent studies have further confirmed that pancreatic duct hypertension is an important pathogenesis of acute pancreatitis. The latest research advances have shown that hyperlipidemia can lead to pancreatic duct obstruction by causing pancreatic duct hyperplasia， forming protein embolism at the biliary-pancreatic junction， and damaging the secretory function of the pancreatic duct， while pancreatic duct obstruction can in turn cause pancreatic duct obstruction. This article reviews the latest research advances in hyperlipidemia in causing pancreatic duct obstruction and emphasizes that pancreatic duct hypertension is one of the important pathogeneses of hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis， which will provide new ideas for exploring the pathogenesis of hyperlipidemic acute pancreatitis.
RESUMEN
Fraction absorbed (Fa) is an important parameter to describe the absorption level of oral drugs, and an important basis for the development and optimization of the formulation process. Because it is easily confused with the concept of absolute bioavailability, it has not received enough attention from the industry. There are many complex factors affecting Fa. There are three time-related factors that directly affect the extent of Fa: the release time, the absorption time, and the residence time. The relationship between these three time-related factors determines the extent of Fa. Generally, we are more concerned about the apparent factors that affect the extent of Fa, including independent variables and covariates; The independent variables include administered dose, route, dosage form, etc. The covariates are divided into internal and external factors, and external factors include food factors, drug interactions, etc. Internal causes include age, sex, disease, etc. This paper analyzes and systematically combs how independent variables and covariates directly or indirectly affect the three time-related factors by affecting the body's physiology and internal environment, thus changing the complex process of Fa. Understanding this theoretical framework can better optimize the independent variables to reduce the impact of covariates on Fa. In addition, this paper also introduces the latest progress of prediction and evaluation of Fa, including the progress of complex dissolution device and the status of software prediction.
RESUMEN
Aim To explore the effect of kaempferol-7- 0-neohesperidoside (K70N) against prostate cancer (PCa) and the underlying mechanism. Methods The effect of K70N on the proliferation of PCa cell lines PC3, DU145, C4-2 and LNCaP was detected using CCK8 assay. The effect of K70N on migration ability of DU145 cells was determined by wound healing assay. The targets of K70N and PCa were screened from SuperPred and other databases. The common targets both related to K70N and PCa were obtained from the Venny online platform, a protein-protein interaction network (PPI) was constructed by the String and Cyto- scape. Meanwhile, the GO and KEGG functional enrichment were analyzed by David database. Then, a "drug-target-disease-pathway" network model was constructed. Cell cycle of PCa cells treated with K70N was analyzed by flow cytometry. The expressions of cycle-associated proteins including Skp2, p27 and p21 protein were detected by Western blot. Molecular docking between Skp2 and K70N was conducted by Sybyl X2. 0. Results K70N significantly inhibited the proliferation and migration of PCa cells. A total number of 34 drug-disease intersection targets were screened. The String results showed that Skp2 and p27, among the common targets, were the key targets of K70N for PCa treatment. Furthermore, GO and KEGG functional en-richment indicated that the mechanism was mainly related to the cell cycle. Flow cytometry showed that K70N treatment induced cell cycle arrest at the S phase. Compared with the control group, the protein expression level of Skp2 was significantly down-regulated, while the protein expression levels of p27 and p21 were up-regulated. The network molecular docking indicated that the ligand K70N had a good binding ability with the receptor Skp2. Conclusions K70N could inhibit the proliferation and migration of PCa cells, block the cell cycle in the S phase, which may be related to the regulation of cell cycle through the Skp2- p27/p21 signaling pathway.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE To explore the potential targets and mechanisms of the modified Baihe dihuang decoction （MBD/ BDD） applied in post-stroke depression （PSD）. METHODS Network pharmacology was used to mine the potential targets and key pathways of MBD/BDD in the treatment of PSD. PSD model rats were induced by focal cerebral ischemia surgery combined with chronic unforeseen mild stress， and then were randomly divided into PSD model group， MBD/BDD group （12.6 g/kg， by raw drug）， and fluoxetine hydrochloride （FLX） group （positive control， 2.3 mg/kg）； a blank control group was also set up， with 8 rats in each group. Each administration group was given a corresponding medication solution by gavage once a day for 21 consecutive days. The intervention effect of MBD/BDD on depression-like symptoms in model rats was evaluated by open field and forced swimming tests. The brain tissues of rats in each group were dissected and total RNA was extracted for transcriptome sequencing and bioinformatics analysis. The mRNA and protein expressions of genes with significant changes and common neurotrophic factors were verified based on the above results. RESULTS A total of 131 MBD/BDD antidepressant-related target genes were obtained （such as IL1B and AKT1， etc.）， which were closely related to neural active ligand-receptor interactions and cyclic adenosine monophosphate signaling pathway. MBD/BDD could significantly prolong or increase the total time spent and distance traveled in the central grid of qiangzhe@cqtcm.edu.cn PSD model rats， and significantly shorten the cumulative immobility time （P＜0.05）. After treatment with MBD/BDD， the number of genes that changed in rat brain tissue was much higher than that in the FLX group， and there were significant differences in gene profiles among the PSD model group， MBD/BDD group， and FLX group. There were 1 351 differentially expressed genes （DEGs） between the MBD/BDD group and the PSD model group， of which 178 were significantly down-regulated and 1 173 were significantly up-regulated （P＜0.05）. Above 1 351 DEGs were involved in neuronal differentiation， chemical synaptic transmission regulation. They were significantly enriched in axonal guidance， cholinergic synapses and neuroactive ligand-receptor interactions. The top 30 genes in terms of up-regulation in the brain tissue of rats of MBD/BDD group were all associated with neuronal proliferation， development， differentiation， and migration. After MBD/BDD intervention， the expressions of Fezf2， Arx， Ostn， Nrgn genes， brain-derived neurotrophic factor and tyrosine kinase receptor B protein in brain tissue of rats were significantly increased （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS The anti-PSD effect of MBD/BDD may be related to the up-regulation of the expression of genes related to neuronal proliferation， development， differentiation and migration， as well as the promotion of neural structural and functional repair.

RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the changes of bone turnover markers and geometric parameters of hip bone in overweight postmenopausal women with metabolic syndrome(MS), as well as the influence of MS components. To analyze the association of these factors with the risk of fracture.Methods:A total of 505 overweight postmenopausal female patients who underwent health check-up in Lianhu Community Service Center, Danyang City, Jiangsu Province from January to December 2017 were selected. According to the MS diagnostic criteria of the International Diabetes Federation(2009), the patients were divided into MS group( n=331)and non-MS group( n=174). Blood samples were collected to determine the level of procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide(P1NP)and carboxy-terminal cross-linked telopeptide of type 1 collagen(CTX). Bone mineral density and hip bone geometry parameters were tested with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and hip structural analysis software. Results:The incidence of osteoporotic fracture and hip fracture in MS group was significantly higher than that in non-MS group(21.1% vs 13.8%, 4.8% vs 1. 1%, P<0.05). However, the bone mineral density of lumbar vertebra 1-4, femoral neck, and total hip in MS group was significantly higher than that in non-MS group, which remained after adjusting for age( P<0.05), but the difference disappeared after further adjustment for body mass index( P>0.05). The P1NP, CTX, femur strength index(FSI), section modulus(SM), and cross-sectional area(CSA)of MS group were significantly lower than those of non-MS group, the buckling ration(BR)was significantly higher than that in non-MS group, and the differences were still statistically significant after adjusting for age and body mass index( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in bone mineral density of lumbar vertebra 1-4, femoral neck, total hip, P1NP, and CTX between fracture group and non-fracture group in patients with MS. But FSI, SM, cross-sectional moment of inertia(CSMI), and CSA were significantly lower, BR was significantly higher( P<0.05) and femur strength decreased in patients with fracture. Regression analysis showed that high BR was an independent risk factor for fracture risk, while high FSI, SM, CSMI, and CSA were protective factors. Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that wasit circumference, diastolic blood pressure, and fasting plasma glucose were the main MS components affecting bone mineral density, bone turnover indexes, and hip bone geometry parameters. Conclusions:Overweight postmenopausal MS patients had decreased bone turnover rate, femoral strength, and relatively poor bone quality. Hip bone geometry parameters can be used as one of the methods to assess fracture risk in MS patients. Waist circumference, diastolic blood pressure, and fasting blood glucose are the important MS components affecting bone mass and bone quality.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the predictive value of the epithelial cell proliferation(ECP)pathway genes for the prognosis of elderly non-small cell lung cancer patients treated with immunotherapy.Methods:A total of 106 elderly patients aged 70 years and over receiving immunotherapy in the POPLAR and OAK clinical trials were retrospectively analyzed in October 2022.According to the mutation status, patients were divided into an ECP pathway-related gene mutation group(ECP mutation group, n=25)and an ECP pathway-related gene non-mutation group(ECP non-mutation group, n=81). The primary endpoints were overall survival(OS)and progression-free survival(PFS). Differences in survival and efficacy between the two groups were compared, and subgroup analysis was performed on clinical factors and genes involved in the pathway.Pyclone was used to calculate the distribution of major clones and subclones in each patient, and differences in survival were compared.Results:Survival outcomes were worse in the ECP(+ )group than in the ECP(-)group(mOS: 10.9 months vs.17.1 months, HR=1.84, 95% CI: 1.09-3.08, P<0.05; mPFS: 2.8 months vs.4.2 months, HR=1.58, 95% CI: 1.00-2.51, P<0.05). Of all mutations in ECP pathway-related genes, mutations in the RB1 gene had a significant prognostic effect on all patients, with the negative prognostic effect especially prominent in ECP(+ )patients.Compared with ECP(-)patients, ECP(+ )patients had a shorter mOS(6.9 months vs.12.6 months, HR=3.14, 95% CI: 1.10-8.97, P=0.024). Ten patients had clonal mutations and 15 patients had sub-clonal mutations in ECP pathway-related genes and the former had a shorter mPFS than the latter(1.3 months vs.5.3 months, HR=3.23, 95% CI: 1.25-8.37, P=0.011). Conclusions:Gene mutations in the epithelial cell proliferation pathway are a negative prognostic factor in elderly non-small cell lung cancer patients receiving immunotherapy, and mutations located in the clonal cluster have a stronger impact on the prognosis.
RESUMEN
Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Osimertinib in the second-line and above treatment of elderly patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma with epidermal grouth factor receptor(EGFR)mutation.Methods:A retrospective analysis of 51 elderly patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma aged 65 years and over was performed.EGFR gene mutations were detected at baseline.The patients were treated with Osimertinib as second or later-line treatment after disease progression on prior epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor(EGFR-TKI)therapy.Results:The median age of the patients was 72 years old, and the median progression-free survival(PFS)with Osimertinib was 13 months(95% CI: 10.8-15.2 months). Patients with exon 19 deletion(19del)treated with Osimertinib had longer PFS than patients with EGFR 21 exon L858R mutation(12 vs.24 month, P=0.028). In patients with EGFR resistance mutation T790M(T790M-positive), the PFS of patients with 19del combined with T790M(19del / T790M-positive)was better than that of patients with L858R combined with T790M(L858R / T790M-positive)(10 vs.28 months, P=0.029). After Osimertinib treatment, 43.8% of patients had brain or meningeal progression.The most commonly used agents for treatment after resistance to Osimertinib are antiangiogenic drugs.The common adverse reactions of Osimertinib were diarrhea(31.4 %), followed by dry skin with itching(29.4%)and rash(25.5 %). Most adverse reactions were grade 1 to 2, and one patient discontinued the drug intermittently due to grade 3 hematological adverse reactions. Conclusions:Osimertinib is effective and well tolerated in elderly patients with advanced EGFR-mutant lung adenocarcinoma.

RESUMEN
Hip fracture is considered as the most severe osteoporotic fracture characterized by high disability and mortality in the elderly. Improved surgical techniques and multidisciplinary team play an active role in alleviating prognosis, which places higher demands on perioperative nursing. Dysfunction, complications, and secondary impact of anaesthesia and surgery add more difficulties to clinical nursing. Besides, there still lack clinical practices in perioperative nursing for elderly patients with hip fracture in China. In this context, led by the Orthopedic Nursing Committee of Chinese Nursing Association, the Expert consensus on clinical practice in perioperative nursing for elderly patients with hip fracture ( version 2023) is developed based on the evidence-based medicine. This consensus provides 11 recommendations on elderly patients with hip fracture from aspects of perioperative health education, condition monitoring and inspection, complication risk assessment and prevention, and rehabilitation, in order to provide guiding advices for clinical practice, improve the quality of nursing and ameliorate the prognosis of elderly patients with hip fracture.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the neurobiochemical metabolites of caudate nucleus and thalamus in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder and their relationship with obsessive-compulsive symptoms.Methods:From April 2019 to January 2022 in Beijing Anding Hospital, totally 25 untreated patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder were recruited, and 20 healthy controls matched with gender, age and educational background were recruited for the study.The maps of neurobiochemical metabolites of patients and normal controls were collected by hydrogen proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy.With bilateral caudate nucleus and thalamus as brain regions of interest.The relative concentrations of N-acetylaspartic acid (NAA), glutamic acid (Glu) and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) were fitted by LCModel software.At the same time, the clinical symptoms of patients were evaluated with Yale-Brown obsessive-compulsive scale (Y-BOCS) and Hamilton anxiety scale (HAMA). SPSS 20.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Independent double sample t-test was used to compare the differences of different nerve biochemical metabolite concentrations between patients with obsessive-compulsive disorders and healthy controls.Pearson correlation analysis was used to explore the correlation between biochemical metabolite concentrations and clinical symptoms. Results:The Glu concentration in the left thalamus of patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (3.97±0.41) was higher than that of the control group (3.66±0.55)( t=-2.11, P<0.05), while the NAA concentration was (4.87±0.47)lower than that of the control group (5.15±0.44)( t=2.05, P<0.05). The GABA concentrations in the right caudate nucleus (0.50±0.18) and thalamus (0.80±0.19) were lower than those in the control group ((0.63±0.23), (0.96±0.24))( t=2.08, 2.36, both P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the Glu concentration in the left caudate nucleus of patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder was positively correlated with the total score of Y-BOCS( r=0.46, P<0.05). Spearman correlation analysis showed that Glu concentration in the right caudate nucleus was positively correlated with the total score of HAMA in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder ( r=0.46, P<0.05). Conclusion:NAA, Glu and GABA metabolism in caudate nucleus and thalamus are abnormal in patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder, and Glu concentration is positively correlated with the severity of obsessive-compulsive and anxiety symptoms.
RESUMEN
Objective:To clarify the elements of post competency of public health professionals and technical personnel, and construct a post competency index system of public health professionals and technical personnel.Methods:Referring to the Hay Group Competency Dictionary and literature review method, the post competency information elements of public health professional and technical personnel were constructed, and were revised through the expert consultation method. Unit-level stratified sampling was used, and 120 public health professionals were invited to evaluate the importance of the elements. SPSS 26.0 was used for data analysis, the continuous data were expressed in ( x ± s) mode, and Pearson was used to study the degree of correlation of each dimension.

Its weight coefficients (%) were 20.03, 17.48, 15.89, 15.68, 13.98, 12.82 and 4.11, respectively. The elements with the highest materiality scores were personal protection, responsibility and professionalism.Conclusion:Personal protection and other public health practical skills and personal professional qualities such as sense of responsibility and professionalism are the core elements of public health positions, and it is recommended to strengthen the training of public health professionals' public health practical skills in actual work, and pay attention to the cultivation of personal professional qualities, so as to establish a better team of public health talents.
RESUMEN
Objective:To establish a risk prediction model of acute kidney injury in paraquat (PQ) poisoning patients.Methods:A retrospective observational cohort of adult patients with acute PQ poisoning between September 10, 2010 and January 16, 2020 from the Emergency Department of West China Hospital, Sichuan University were conducted. Data on demographics, clinical records, and laboratory results were collected from electronic medical record. The patients were divided into the AKI group and the non-AKI group according to whether AKI occurred during hospitalization. The patients were randomly divided into the training and validation groups (7:3). Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to screen the independent risk factors of AKI and the nomogram was used to establish a prediction model. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and calibration curve were used to evaluate the differentiation and calibration of the prediction model. Decision curve analysis (DCA) was used to evaluate the clinical validity of the prediction model.Results:A total of 718 patients were included in this study. AKI occurred in 323 (45%) patients in hospital and 378 (52.6%) patients died. The mortality rate of the AKI group was higher than that of the non-AKI group (72.8% vs. 36.2%, P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the time from poisoning to treatment ( OR=1.018, 95% CI:1.006-1.030), white blood cell count ( OR=1.128, 95% CI: 1.084-1.173), aspartate aminotransferase ( OR=1.017, 95% CI:1.006-1.027), cystatin C ( OR=516.753, 95% CI: 99.337-2688.172), and PQ concentration ( OR=1.064, 95% CI:1.044-1.085) in blood on admission were independent risk factors of AKI in patients with PQ poisoning ( P<0.01). The area under the ROC curve was 0.943 (95% CI: 0.923-0.962) in the training cohort, and the sensitivity and specificity were 82.4% and 93.6%, respectively. The calibration curve showed optimal agreement between prediction by nomogram and actual observation. Decision curve and clinical impact curve analysis indicated that the nomogram conferred high clinical net benefit. Conclusions:The time from poisoning to treatment, white blood cell count, aspartate aminotransferase, cystatin C, and PQ concentration in blood on admission were independent risk factors of AKI. The predictive model based on the above indicators has high sensitivity and specificity in evaluating AKI after PQ poisoning. Whether this prediction model can be applied to other PQ poisoning patients needs to be further expanded for verification.
RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the inhibitory effect and killing mechanism of Bcl-2 BH4 selective inhibitor BDA-366 on NK/T cell lymphoma (NK/TCL) .Methods:Human NK cell leukemia cell line YT and human NK/TCL cell line NK92 cells were treated with 0, 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, 0.30, 0.40, 0.50 μmol/L BDA-366. CCK-8 assay was used to calculate the half inhibitory concentration (IC 50) value of BDA-366 on these cells. The apoptosis levels of cells in control group and IC 50 BDA-366 treated group were detected by flow cytometry. Western blotting was used to detect the expression levels of apoptosis-related proteins in cells of control group and 1/2 IC 50, IC 50, 2× IC 50 BDA-366 treated groups. TMRE and Fluo-3 fluorescent probe were used to detect mitochondrial membrane potential of control group and IC 50 BDA-366 treated group, and the intracellular Ca 2+ concentration of control group, IC 50, 2× IC 50 BDA-366 treated groups. NOD-SCID mice in control group and 10 mg/kg BDA-366 intraperitoneal injection group were weighed and HE staining was performed to evaluate the toxicity of BDA-366 in vivo. Results:The IC 50 of BDA-366 for YT and NK92 cells were 0.065 and 0.086 μmol/L respectively. The apoptosis rates of YT cells in the control group and 0.065 μmol/L BDA-366 group were (6.62±1.59) % and (34.60±3.06) % respectively. The apoptosis rates of NK92 cells in the control group and 0.086 μmol/L BDA-366 group were (5.57±0.88) % and (29.18±0.90) % respectively, both with statistically significant differences ( t=14.05, P<0.001; t=32.58, P<0.001). The relative expression of Bax in NK92 cells of the control group, 0.043, 0.086 and 0.172 μmol/L BDA-366 groups were 0.85±0.00, 1.26±0.04, 1.51±0.18, 1.15±0.10 ( F=20.70, P<0.001), the relative expression of Bax in BDA-366 groups were higher than that in the control group (all P<0.05). The fluorescence intensity of TMRE of YT cells in the control group and 0.065 μmol/L BDA-366 group were 8 372.00±330.47 and 6 419.67±311.34, and that of NK92 cells in the control group and 0.086 μmol/L BDA-366 group were 9 169.00±535.72 and 7 311.67±295.52 respectively, and there were statistically significant differences ( t=7.45, P=0.002; t=5.26, P=0.006). In YT cells, the intracellular Ca 2+ concentrations of 0.065 and 0.130 μmol/L BDA-366 groups were significantly higher than that of the control group (5 791.67±220.45, 6 729.33±585.39, 4 874.67±112.61, F=19.16, P=0.003) ( P=0.039; P=0.002). In NK92 cells, the intracellular Ca 2+ concentrations of 0.086 and 0.172 μmol/L BDA-366 groups were significantly higher than that of the control group (4 553.67±17.62, 4 740.33±254.50, 4 185.67±17.67, F=10.96, P=0.010) ( P=0.039; P=0.007). There was no statistically significant difference in body weight change on day 12 compared with day 0 of NOD-SCID mice between BDA-366 group and control group [ (3.18±0.01) g vs. (2.73±0.58) g, t=0.60, P=0.570], and HE staining showed no abnormal morphology of heart, liver, spleen, lung and kidney in BDA-366 group. Conclusion:BDA-366 promotes NK/TCL cells apoptosis in vitro, but does not cause weight loss and morphological changes of organs by HE staining in vivo. The inhibitory effect of BDA-366 on NK/TCL cells may be achieved by increasing Bax expression, inducing Ca 2+ release and reducing mitochondrial membrane potential.
RESUMEN
Objective To analyze the relationship between diurnal temperature range (DTR) and the hospitalization of stroke in Lanzhou,so as to provide a scientific basis for probing into the mechanism of temperature changes in inducing stroke and formulating comprehensive prevention and control measures for stroke by relevant departments.Methods The information of the patients hospitalized due to stroke in Lanzhou during January 2014 to December 2019 and the air pollutants (PM10,SO2,and NO2) and meteorological data in the same period were collected for statistical analysis.Spearman rank correlation analysis was performed to analyze the correlations between air pollutants and meteorological factors.The distributed lag nonlinear model was adopted to fit the relationship between DTR and the number of stroke inpatients,and three-dimensional diagrams and the correlation diagrams of DTR against stroke risk were established.The stratified analysis was performed according to gender and age (< 65 years and ≥65 years).Results From 2014 to 2019,a total of 92 812 stroke patients were hospitalized in Lanzhou,with a male-to-female ratio of 1.35:1.There was a nonlinear relationship between DTR and the number of stroke inpatients in Lanzhou,which presented a lag effect.The low DTR at 4.5 ℃ had the largest RR value of 1.25 (95%CI=1.16-1.35) for stroke inpatients at a cumulative lag of 18 d.The effect of high DTR (18.5 ℃) on the hospitalization of stroke patients peaked at a cumulative lag of 21 d,with an RR value of 1.09 (95%CI=1.01-1.18).The stratified analysis results suggested that low levels of DTR had greater effects on the hospitalization of male stroke patients and stroke patients <65 years.Conclusions Short-term exposure to different levels of DTR had an impact on the number of stroke inpatients,and low levels of DTR had a slightly greater impact on stroke inpatients than high levels of DTR.Importance should be attached to the protection of males and people aged <65 years at low levels of DTR.

The paper summarizes the academic thought and clinical experience of professor LI De-hua in treatment of facial nerve injury after total parotidectomy with blade needle based on jingjin (muscle region of meridian, sinew/fascia) theory. This disease is located at muscle regions of hand-/foot-three yang meridians; and the sinew/fascia adhesion is its basic pathogenesis, manifested by "transversely-distributed collaterals" and "knotted tendons". In treatment, the knotted tendons are taken as the points. Using the relaxation technique of blade needle, the lesions of sinews/fascia are dissected and removed to release the stimulation or compression to the nerves and vessels so that the normal function of sinews/fascia can be restored.

RESUMEN
Background@#and Purpose Intravenous tenecteplase (TNK) efficacy has not been well demonstrated in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) beyond 4.5 hours after onset. This study aimed to determine the effect of intravenous TNK for AIS within 4.5 to 24 hours of onset. @*Methods@#In this pilot trial, eligible AIS patients with diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI)-fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) mismatch were randomly allocated to intravenous TNK (0.25 mg/kg) or standard care within 4.5–24 hours of onset. The primary endpoint was excellent functional outcome at 90 days (modified Rankin Scale [mRS] score of 0–1). The primary safety endpoint was symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH). @*Results@#Of the randomly assigned 80 patients, the primary endpoint occurred in 52.5% (21/40) of TNK group and 50.0% (20/40) of control group, with no significant difference (unadjusted odds ratio, 1.11; 95% confidence interval 0.46–2.66; P=0.82). More early neurological improvement occurred in TNK group than in control group (11 vs. 3, P=0.03), but no significant differences were found in other secondary endpoints, such as mRS 0–2 at 90 days, shift analysis of mRS at 90 days, and change in National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score at 24 hours and 7 days. There were no cases of sICH in this trial; however, asymptomatic intracranial hemorrhage occurred in 3 of the 40 patients (7.5%) in the TNK group. @*Conclusion@#This phase 2, randomized, multicenter study suggests that intravenous TNK within 4.5–24 hours of onset may be safe and feasible in AIS patients with a DWI-FLAIR mismatch.
