Objective To investigate the efficacies of proximal femoral nail anti-rotation(PFNA)internal fixation in traction bed supine position and non-traction bed lateral position in the treatment of elderly unstable femoral intertrochanteric fractures.Methods The clinical data of patients with unstable femoral intertrochanteric fractures treated with PFNA internal fixation in our hospital were retrospec-tively analyzed,41 patients received treatment in traction bed supine position were included in the supine position group,and 55 patients treated received treatment in non-traction bed lateral position were included in the lateral position group.The perioperative related indicators,surgical reduction,hip Harris score,and incidence of complications in the two groups were analyzed.Results The operation time and incision length of patients in the lateral position group were shorter than those in the supine position group,and the intraoperative blood loss and fluoroscopy times were less than those in the supine position group,with statistically significant differences(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the anesthesia mode,blood transfusion or hospital stay of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative complications of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).There was no significant difference in neck-shaft angle,tip-apex distance or hip Harris score of patients between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion PFNA internal fixation in traction bed supine position and non-traction bed lateral position have the same effect in the treatment of elderly unstable femoral intertrochanteric fractures,while the non-traction bed lateral position for treatment has more advantages in shortening operation time,decreasing intraoperative blood loss,and reducing radiation exposure.

The effect of preservation of mucosal ligaments in meniscal repair using arthroscopy / 中华骨科杂志

Objective:To analyze the effect of mucosal ligament preservation on the outcome of arthroscopic repair of meniscus injury.Methods:A total of 77 patients with knee meniscus tears caused by sports injuries who underwent arthroscopic meniscus repair or suture in Zhengzhou Orthopaedic Hospital from June 2022 to June 2023, were retrospectively analyzed. Including 45 males and 32 females, aged 38.57±13.54 years (range, 52-87 years), body mass index 24.72±4.01 kg/m 2 (range, 34.14-13.61 kg/m 2). All patients complained of knee pain, limited activity and walking weakness. The symptoms were not relieved after 1 month of conservative treatment, which seriously affected daily work and life. According to the intraoperative treatment of mucosal ligament, the patients were divided into mucosal ligament preservation group and mucosal ligament removal group. The visual analogue score (VAS), Lysholm score, and total blood loss were compared between the two groups. Results:All patients successfully completed the operation and were followed up for an average of 5.23±2.16 months (range, 3-9 months). The operation time was 47.59±16.81 min in mucosal ligament preservation group and 45.25±15.93 min in mucosal ligament removal group, and there was no significant difference between the two groups ( t=0.628, P=0.532). The total blood loss in the mucosal ligament preservation group was 246±193 ml, which was less than 343±211 ml in the mucosal ligament removal group, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=2.095, P=0.040). None of the patients received allogeneic blood transfusion. The hematocrit of the mucosal ligament preservation group was 42.48%±4.57% before operation and 39.42%±4.65% on the third day after operation, while that of the mucosal ligament removal group was 41.24%±4.16% and 38.95%±3.80%. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t=0.016, P=0.004; t=0.004, P=0.016). There was no significant difference between the two groups before operation and on the third day after operation ( t=0.217, P=0.545; t=0.629, P=0.159). The preoperative VAS score of mucosal ligament preservation group was 7.25±1.10, which was higher than that of 3 months after operation (0.83±1.06), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=0.062, P<0.001). The preoperative VAS score of mucosal ligament removal group was 7.16±1.21, which was higher than that of 3 months after operation (1.05±1.13), and the difference was statistically significant ( t=0.017, P<0.001). There was no significant difference in VAS scores between the two groups before operation and at 3 months after operation ( t=0.144, P=0.740; t= 0.273, P=0.603). The preoperative Lysholm score of mucosal ligament preservation group was 31.76±7.54, which was significantly lower than that of 3 months after operation 87.30±4.12 ( t=-39.329, P<0.001); The Lysholm score of the mucosal ligament removal group was 34.13±7.32 before operation, which was lower than 89.05±4.45 at 3 months after operation, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=-40.172, P<0.001); There was no significant difference in Lysholm score between the two groups before operation and 3 months after operation ( t=1.395, P=0.167; t=1.766, P=0.081). Conclusion:The preservation of mucosal ligament in arthroscopic surgery for meniscus injury does not prolong the operation time. It can reduce the total intraoperative blood loss, and the postoperative knee function recovery is similar to that of mucosal ligament removal.

Health risk assessment of inhalation exposure to metallic elements in PM2.5 in four cities of the Pearl River Delta in 2022 / 上海预防医学

ObjectiveTo understand the characteristics of PM2.5 pollution in the air of Pearl River Delta city in Guangdong Province under the COVID-19 epidemic and the health risks of inhaling elements in PM2.5. MethodsIn 2022， 10 PM2.5 monitoring points were set up in 10 districts in Guangzhou， Shenzhen， Foshan and Zhuhai， and air samples were collected for 7 consecutive days every month to analyze the concentration of PM2.5 and the 12 elements in PM2.5. The classic "four-step" method was used to evaluate the carcinogenic risk and chronic non-carcinogenic risk of the elements in air PM2.5 on health. The age-sensitive characteristics of metal elements were combined in the carcinogenic risk assessment， and age-sensitive factors were introduced to analyze the impact of air pollution on population health. ResultsA total of818 samples were collected. and the average annual PM2.5 concentration in the four cities of the Pearl River Delta was 30.17 （1.00-166.00， s=21.06） μg·m-3， which was lower than the concentration limit of the secondary standard of the Ambient Air Quality Standard （GB 3095-2012）. The difference of PM2.5 concentration in the four cities was statistically significant. The PM2.5 concentrations in Zhuhai and Shenzhen， which were located near the sea， were lower than those in Guangzhou and Foshan. The monthly mean concentration of PM2.5 in the four cities was the lowest at 13.70 （4.00-34.00， s=5.93） μg·m-3 in July and the highest at 57.73 （14.00-146.00， s=27.96） μg·m-3 in January， showing a low concentration from May to October and a high concentration from November to April of the following year. The average daily PM2.5 concentration exceeded the secondary standard for 29 days， mainly distributed in January and November. The average annual mass concentration of elements in PM2.5 in the four cities was Al>Mn>Pb>As>Ni>Cr>Se>Sb>Cd>Tl>Be>Hg. AS and Mn have chronic non-carcinogenic risk in population， while Cr， AS， Cd， Be and Ni have carcinogenic risk in population. ConclusionThe PM2.5 pollution levels of the four cities in the Pearl River Delta are low and variable. Coastal cities are lower than non-coastal cities， which shows the characteristics of first decreasing and then increasing throughout the year. The order of mass concentration of metal elements of PM2.5 in four cities is basically the same except Be and Ni. As and Mn in PM2.5 show a certain degree of chronic non-carcinogenic risk， and As， Cr， Cd， Ni and Be have a certain degree of carcinogenic risk. The four cities need to take effective intervention measures to continue to strengthen the pollution control and health protection of Cr， As， Cd and Mn in the air， and control the health burden caused by air pollution.

Construction of porous structure on the surface of PLLA/β-tricalcium scaffold and its effect on cell adhesion / 西安交通大学学报(医学版)

【Objective】 To construct a 3D printed PLLA/β-tricalcium (PLLA/β-TCP) bone tissue engineering scaffold surface porous structure through simple treatment with NaOH solution, increase the roughness and hydrophilicity of the scaffold, and promote cell adhesion on the scaffold surface. 【Methods】 The PLLA/β-TCP mesh scaffold was prepared by 3D printing melt deposition molding technology, and the scaffold was roughed by NaOH etching. The effects of NaOH concentration and time on the scaffold were observed according to the microstructure, energy spectrum, contact angle, mechanics, and cell adhesion of the scaffold. 【Results】 The PLLA/β-TCP composite scaffold constructed by melt deposition technology had a pre-set porous structure, and the pores were interconnected. After NaOH etching, a porous structure with both macroscopic and microscopic pores was formed. The increase in any of the NaOH concentration and time parameters would lead to the increase of pore diameter and surface roughness. When the NaOH treatment parameter was 0.1 mol/L (9 h), it could significantly reduce the water contact angle on the surface of the scaffold, and had no significant effect on the compressive strength of the scaffold. In vitro cell testing showed that the surface porous composite scaffold etched with NaOH had more advantages in the adhesion and proliferation of BMSCs. 【Conclusion】 Using NaOH to process 3D printing of PLLA/β-TCP bone tissue engineering scaffolds can effectively improve the surface morphology of the scaffold, and optimize its hydrophilicity and cell adhesion.

Improving the surface hydrophilicity and performance of 3D printed PCL/β-TCP mesh support by sodium hydroxide alkali etching method / 西安交通大学学报(医学版)

【Objective】 To solve the problem of insufficient hydrophilicity on the surface of polycaprolactone (PCL)/β-TCP bone tissue engineering scaffolds, NaOH etching method was used to improve the surface microstructure of 3D printed PCL/β-TCP scaffolds, further affecting their hydrophilicity and cell response. 【Methods】 PCL/β-TCP mesh scaffolds were prepared using 3D printing melt deposition molding technology, and the surface roughness of the scaffolds was modified by NaOH etching. The effects of two reaction parameters, NaOH concentration and time, on the microstructure, spectral elements, contact angle, compressive strength, and cell adhesion of the scaffolds before and after modification were observed. 【Results】 After NaOH etching, the surface microporous structure of the mesh scaffold was successfully prepared. With the increase of either NaOH concentration or time, the surface micropores of the scaffold increased while the contact angle of the material surface decreased. However, the compression strength of the etched scaffold treated with NaOH for 1 mol/L (24 h) or 10 mol/L (6 h) was not statistically significant compared to the untreated group (P>0.05). The number of cells on the etched scaffold increased, with a larger spreading area of individual cells, making it more advantageous in the adhesion and proliferation of BMSCs. 【Conclusion】 The use of NaOH etching to improve the hydrophilicity of 3D printed PCL/β-TCP bone tissue engineering scaffolds is a low-cost and effective strategy which can effectively improve the wettability and cell adhesion of the scaffolds.

Colorimetric Determination of Antioxidant Capacity by Peroxidase Mimics Based on Ruthenium Nanoparticles Supported on Carbon Nanosheets / 分析化学

Lattice strain ruthenium nanoparticles uniformly and stably supported on nitrogen-modified carbon nanosheets(RuNPs/NC)were prepared via simple wet-chemical and subsequent pyrolysis method.The nitrogen doped NC could effectively improve their uniform dispersion and lattice compression of RuNPs.Through changing the pyrolysis temperature,the nitrogen content,types and degree of lattice strain of RuNPs could be effectively tuned,which could be used to adjust and control their peroxidase-like activity.The as-prepared RuNPs/NC-900 exhibited highest peroxidase-like activity,and could catalyze the oxidation of 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine(TMB)to produce a blue product with the maximum absorption at 652 nm in the presence of H2O2.The steady-state kinetic analysis indicated that the reaction catalyzed by RuNPs/NC followed the Michaelis-Menten kinetic model.Tannic acid(TA),gallic acid(GA)and ascorbic acid(AA)could effectively inhibit the RuNPs/NC-H2O2-triggered chromogenic reaction of TMB,resulting in color fading and decrease in absorbance.Based on this,a sensitive and accurate system was constructed for detection of TA,GA and AA.The detection limits(3σ/S)for TA,GA and AA were 0.014,0.014 and 0.29 μmol/L,respectively.This study not only developed a colorimetric sensing method based on RuNPs/NC nanozyme but also offered a new approach for the sensitive detection of antioxidants in food.

Study on transcriptome characteristics of respiratory syncytial virus bronchiolitis in children by RNA sequencing / 中华预防医学杂志

To explore the biological characteristics related to the pathogenesis and severity of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) bronchiolitis by RNA sequencing of white blood cells in children with RSV bronchiolitis. This study is a case-control study. A total of 87 children diagnosed with bronchiolitis and RSV antigen positive and/or RSV nucleic acid positive in the pediatric respiratory department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University from October 2019 to April 2022 were selected as the case group. The case group was divided into three groups based on the condition: mild, moderate, and severe, and there were two groups according to the presence or absence of atopic symptoms: the atopic group and the non-atopic group, forty healthy children in the same period were selected as the control group. The whole blood leukocyte RNA of the children in the case group and the control group was extracted for RNA sequencing, and the data were analyzed to obtain differentially expressed genes (DEGs). Then, the immunobiological pathways and genes related to the pathogenesis, disease condition, and atopy were screened through Gene Ontology (GO) annotation, Kyoto Gene and Genome Encyclopedia (KEGG) annotation, and protein interaction network (PPI) construction methods. Construct the weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) module to identify potential biological indicators related to disease severity.Compared with the control group, the case group had a total of 1 782 DEGs, including 1 586 upregulated genes and 196 downregulated genes. The GO pathway enrichment of DEGs is mainly enriched in molecular functions such as peroxidase activity and oxidoreductase activity. In the cytological components, it is mainly enriched in cytoplasmic vesicle lumen and secretory granule lumen. In biological processes, it is mainly enriched in processes such as neutrophil activation involved in immune responses, neutrophil degranulation, and neutrophil activation. KEGG analysis is mainly concentrated in the signal pathway of the viral protein interaction with cytokine and cytokine receptor. A PPI network was constructed to screen four genes at the core position, including CCL2, IL-10, MMP9 and JUN. The DEGs obtained by comparing different disease groups with the control group are mainly enriched in retrograde endocannabinoid signaling and cell apoptosis pathways. WGCNA analysis showed that the brown module related to oxygen saturation was most closely related to the disease, and its gene was mainly enriched in the RNA helicase retinoic acid inducible gene-I (RIG-I) like receptor signal pathway. There are 230 specific DEGs in the atopic group and 444 in the non-atopic group. KEGG enrichment analysis results show that both groups are enriched to NF-κB signaling pathway, the characteristic does not cause significant changes in immune response and transcriptome characteristics in children with RSV bronchiolitis. In conclusion, neutrophil activation, degranulation pathway and signal pathway of interaction between viral protein and cytokine and cytokine receptor are involved in the immune response of RSV bronchiolitis host. CCL2, IL-10, MMP9 and JUN genes may be associated with the pathogenesis. They might be potential biomarkers related to disease severity in RIG-I like receptors, cell apoptosis, and endogenous cannabinoid related signaling pathways.

Data mining and analysis of oxaliplatin-related adverse events of nervous system / 中国药房

OBJECTIVE To provide reference for clinically safe drug use by mining oxaliplatin-related adverse drug events （ADE） of the nervous system. METHODS Oxaliplatin-related neurologic ADE data reported by the FDA adverse event reporting system （FAERS） between January 1st， 2004 and December 31st， 2022 were collected. The reporting odds ratio and proportional reporting ratio were used for data mining. The data were classified statistically by using systematic organ classification， high-level group term （HLGT） and preferred term （PT） in the MedDRA （version 26.0）. RESULTS A total of 7 266 cases of oxaliplatin- related ADE， which were classified as various neurological， were retrieved， and 100 PT were identified. Of these， fifty-seven PT were unspecified adverse reaction signals in the manual. Among these reports， males （46.85%） were more than females （42.98%）， the age of patients was 45-＜75 years （65.22%）， the number of reports was highest in Italy （16.32%）， and the severe type was hospitalization or prolonged hospitalization （38.16%）. The top 5 PT reports in the list of case number were peripheral neuropathy， paresthesia， neurotoxicity， loss of consciousness and dysarthria. The top 5 PT reports in the list of signal intensities were cold- induced paresthesia， neuromuscular rigidity， acute polyneuropathy， neuronal neuropathy， axonal and demyelinating polyneuropathy. A total of 13 HLGT were involved， with neurological diseases （not classified separately） having the highest number of signals （29）. CONCLUSIONS When using oxaliplatin in clinical practice， it is not only necessary to monitor the high incidence of acute and chronic peripheral neuropathy， but also to pay attention to the patient’s consciousness state and neurological symptoms. We should pay attention to the rare types of adverse reactions， such as guillain-barre syndrome， Lhermitte sign， posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome， and hyperammoniacal encephalopathy， so as to ensure the safety of medication.

Progress on study of factors influencing the prognosis and complications of surgery for discoid meniscus injury in children / 中国骨伤

The discoid meniscus is a common congenital meniscal malformation that is prevalent mainly in Asians and often occurs in the lateral discoid meniscus. Patients with asymptomatic discoid meniscus are usually treated by conservative methods such as observation and injury avoidance, while patients with symptoms and tears need to be treated surgically. Arthroscopic saucerization combined with partial meniscectomy and meniscus repair is the most common surgical approach., and early to mid-term reports are good. The prognostic factors are the patient's age at surgery、follow-up time and type of surgery. Some patients experience complications such as prolonged postoperative knee pain, early osteoarthritis, retears and Osteochondritis dissecans. The incidence of prolonged postoperative knee pain was higher and the incidence of Osteochondritis dissecans was the lowest. Retears of the lateral meniscus is the main reason for reoperation.

Demonstration of an 800G CDM-SDM coherent PON utilizing weakly coupled multicore fibers with CDM tributary manipulation.

In this Letter, we present an experimental demonstration of downstream signaling in a 16 × 50 Gbit/s coherent passive optical network (CPON) using the code and space division multiplexing (CDM-SDM) approach. We realize optical SDM through the utilization of a 4-core weakly coupled multicore fiber (WC-MCF), enhancing the total available optical launch power at the optical line terminal (OLT). This enhancement significantly improves the power budget for CPONs that connect with a large number of optical network units (ONUs). At the second stage of the CPON, four CDM-assigned ONUs are connected to individual cores of the WC-MCF, thereby supporting the connectivity of up to 16 ONUs. Through experiments, we have noted substantial disparities in the downstream signaling performance among individual CDM-assigned ONUs, particularly as the capacity is increased to 800 Gbit/s. To address this issue, we have employed an innovative approach by leveraging space-time coding techniques to manipulate the CDM tributaries, to achieve a balanced reception performance for all ONUs within the CPON. We believe that the proposed CDM-SDM CPON scheme, complemented by the advanced DSP flow chart, holds significant promise for future PON systems characterized by substantial capacity and extensive connectivity.

Status of irrational drug use in the outpatient department of a Beijing hospital from 2018 to 2021 and evaluation of the effect of intervention measures.

To explore the status of irrational drug use in a hospital between the pre-intervention (2018 to 2019) and post-intervention (2020 to 2021) in Beijing and evaluate the effects of relevant interventions. Prescriptions were evaluated manually with reference to the management rules of the china prescription administrative policy, standard management of hospital prescription comments, standards for prescription examination in medical institutions, regulations on pharmaceutical administration in medical institutions and the administrative measures for the clinical application of antibiotics. There were 5,584 irrational outpatient electronic prescriptions, with 1,681, 1,554, 1,234 and 1,115 made annually from 2018 to 2021, respectively. Among the all irrational prescriptions, high proportions were filled by patients aged 15 to 34 years (55.62%), female patients (50.90%), patients with complications (77.42%) or chronic diseases (65.45%). The top-three types of irrational electronic prescriptions were incomplete prescription postscript (24.05%), excessive dosage (19.75%) and inappropriate medication frequency (16.42%). Among all the physicians who prescribed, the most common was physicians aged from 25 to 30 years (45.61%) and with a junior title (64.83%). Although irrational drug use interventions could significantly improve the prescribing of irrational electronic prescriptions, the situation of irrational prescribing still exists. Related interventions should be taken in future clinical work.

Construction of a Nomogram predictive model for post-discharge psychosomatic review of psychiatric liaison consultation patients based on medical record data.

Epidemiological studies have shown that almost all physical illnesses coexist with psychiatric disorders or psychological problems, and the severity of mental illness is positively correlated with the duration and severity of physical illness. Liaison consultations are valuable in identifying and treating psychiatric disorders, but the rate of psychiatric follow-up after consultation is low in outpatients. This study aimed to investigate the factors influencing post-discharge psychosomatic follow-up visits in patients undergoing psychiatric liaison consultation in general hospitals and construct a Nomogram prediction model for patients' post-discharge psychosomatic follow-up visits. Medical record data of inpatients who received psychiatric liaison consultations at Xi'an International Medical Center Hospital in China from September 2019 to September 2020 were analyzed. Lasso regression and multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to screen independent influences on the occurrence of post-discharge psychosomatic follow-ups in patients undergoing psychiatric liaison consultations. Risk prediction column line graphs were constructed using R software, and the models were evaluated. Of the 494 inpatients who received psychiatric liaison consultations, 115 patients (23.279%) (mean age = 54.8 years) went for post-discharge psychosomatic follow-up, while 379 patients (mean age = 59.3 years) had no record of psychosomatic follow-up. Furthermore, occupation, interval.time, diagnosis, out.antipsychotics, and recommendations.followup were independent factors influencing post-discharge psychosomatic follow-up. The model accurately predicted post-discharge psychosomatic follow-up behavior of inpatients who received psychiatric liaison consultations. Lastly, the clinical decision curve analysis showed that the model had good validity for clinical application. Patients who received a psychiatric liaison consultation with a ≤ 10-day interval between admission to the hospital and application for consultation, were discharged with prescribed medication, and had a clear written medical order for a follow-up consultation had an increased probability of psychosomatic follow-up after discharge.

Analyzing the role of green innovation and public-private partnerships in achieving sustainable development goals: a novel policy framework.

The environment's quality is the cornerstone for every country's long-term growth. Pakistan, like other countries, is embracing modern, efficient technologies to build a sustainable environment following the SDGs. In this situation, policymakers and experts have emphasized more on environmental factors. To do this, the study explores the impact of green innovation (GI), public-private partnerships in energy (PPP), energy use (EU), economic development (ED), and power prices (PP) on CO2 emissions in Pakistan from 1980 to 2019. The research uses a novel econometric technique for estimating environmental factors, notably the dynamic autoregressive distributed lag simulations (ARDLS) model and spectral frequency domain causality (SFDC), to examine positive and negative shocks for the prediction of the short-, medium-, and long-run impact of selected determinants, respectively. Additionally, robustness checks were performed using the fully modified OLS (FMOLS), dynamic OLS (DOLS), and canonical cointegrating regression (CCR) estimations. The short and long-term empirical findings indicate that GI lowers emissions; nevertheless, PPP, EU, and ED have a significant impact on emissions in the short run, while the EU increases emissions in the long run. PP, on the other hand, reduces emissions both short and long-term. The FMOLS, DOLS, and CCR estimations indicate significant discoveries. Additionally, the SFDC finding supports the long, medium, and short-term causation theories.

A framework for the implementation of consultation-liaison psychiatry from the characteristics of psychosomatic consultations at a general hospital in China.

OBJECTIVE: To describe the characteristics of a consultation-liaison psychiatry (CLP) service at a general hospital in China, compare the literature on CLP in other hospitals in China and abroad, and identify reasons for the differences. METHODS: The medical records of all inpatients who received liaison consultations in the first year of the establishment of Xi'an International Medical Center Hospital were reviewed. Demographic data, specific department, number of consultations, reasons for consultation, outcome of consultation, and follow-up information on patients was collected. RESULTS: A total of 630 patients were enrolled during the first year of the hospital's opening, of which 45.2% were male and 54.8% were female. A total of 89.2% of non-psychiatric departments requested a psychosomatic consultation. The percentage of middle-aged and elderly patients was 75.6%, of whom 61.6% were aged 45 to 74 years. The internal medicine department requested the highest number of consultations (48.2%), including those from respiratory medicine (12.1%), neurology (12.1%), gastroenterology (12.1%), and cardiology (12.1%). Among surgical patients, orthopedic patients (6.5%) comprised the majority of consults. The main reasons for requesting a psychosomatic consultation were depressive symptoms (139 cases, 22.8%), anxiety symptoms (137 cases, 22.5%), sleep problems (111 cases, 18.2%), and hallucinations, delusions, or behavioral problems (68 cases, 11.2%), accounting for a total of 74.6% of consultations (455/630). CONCLUSION: A significant gap exists between the level of CLP services in China and developed regions in Europe and the United States, mainly due to low psychiatric consultation rates and poor quality CLP services.

Outcome of COVID-19 Infection in Patients With Multiple Sclerosis Who Received Disease-Modifying Therapies: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Background@#and Purpose A systematic review and meta-analysis was performed of the outcome of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) who received disease-modifying therapies (DMTs). @*Methods@#Relevant studies published before November 2022 in the PubMed, Cochrane Library, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Web of Science databases were retrieved using the following search expression: (“multiple sclerosis” OR “MS”) AND (“DMT” OR “disease modifying therapies”) AND (“COVID-19”). Two authors independently screened the articles and extracted the data. Qualitative analyses and a meta-analysis constituted 22 of the 794 retrieved articles. Differences in the hospitalization and mortality rates were used as the main measures of efficacy, and the meta-analysis was performed using RevMan software. @*Results@#22 clinical trials were selected. The hospitalization rate was lower in the 3,216 patients who received DMTs than in the 774 patients who did not receive any treatment, with a moderate effect size of 0.43 (p<0.00001). The mortality rate was also lower among patients with MS treated using DMTs than in controls (odds ratio [OR]=0.19, 95% confidence interval [CI]=0.13–0.27, p<0.00001). The hospitalization rates for COVID-19 infection in patients with MS treated with anti-CD20 therapy also increased markedly (OR=3.32, 95% CI=2.63–4.20, p<0.00001). However, there was no significant difference between patients with MS who did and did not receive DMTs. @*Conclusions@#In summary, the application of DMTs was found to be valuable for patients with MS infected with COVID-19. However, more clinical studies are needed to determine the use of anti-CD20 drugs in patients with MS during the COVID-19 pandemic.
