    Abstract: Obesity often initiates or coexists with metabolic abnormalities. This study aimed to investigate the pathological characteristics and the independent or mutual relations of obesity and metabolic abnormalities with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) and associated diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Methods A total of 495 Chinese patients with T2D and biopsy-confirmed DKD between 2003 and 2020 were enrolled in this retrospective study. The metabolic phenotypes were based on the body weight index (BMI)-based categories (obesity, BMI ≥ 25.0 kg/m 2 ) and metabolic status (metabolically unhealthy status, ≥ 1 criterion National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III (NCEP/ATP III) excluding waist circumference and hyperglycemia) and were categorized into four types: metabolically healthy non-obesity (MHNO), metabolically healthy obesity (MHO), metabolically unhealthy non-obesity (MUNO), and metabolically unhealthy obesity (MUO). The pathological findings were defined by the Renal Pathology Society classification. Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) for ESKD. Results There are 56 (11.3%) MHNO patients, 28 (5.7%) MHO patients, 176 (35.6%) MUNO patients, and 235 (47.5%) MUO patients. The high prevalence of the Kimmelstiel–Wilson nodule and severe mesangial expansion were associated with obesity, whereas severe IFTA was related to metabolically unhealthy status. In the multivariate analysis, the adjusted HR (aHR) was 2.09 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.99–4.88] in the MHO group, 2.16 (95% CI 1.20–3.88) in the MUNO group, and 2.31 (95% CI 1.27–4.20) in the MUO group compared with the MHNO group. Furthermore, the presence of obesity was insignificantly associated with ESKD compared with non-obese patients (aHR 1.22, 95% CI 0.88–1.68), while the metabolically unhealthy status was significantly associated with ESKD compared to the metabolically healthy status in the multivariate analysis (aHR 1.69, 95% CI 1.10–2.60). Conclusion Obesity itself was insignificantly associated with ESKD; however, adding a metabolically unhealthy status to obesity increased the risk for progression to ESKD in T2D and biopsy-proven DKD.

    Abstract: To investigate the relationship between serum uric acid (SUA) level and renal outcome in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and diabetic nephropathy (DN). Methods A total of 393 Chinese patients with T2DM and biopsy-proven DN and followed at least 1 year were enrolled in this study. Patients were stratified by the quartiles of baseline level of SUA: Q1 group: 286.02 ± 46.66 μmol/L ( n  = 98); Q2 group: 358.23 ± 14.03 μmol/L ( n  = 99); Q3 group: 405.50 ± 14.59 μmol/L ( n  = 98) and Q4 group: 499.14 ± 56.97μmol/L ( n  = 98). Renal outcome was defined by progression to end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Kaplan–Meier survival analysis and Cox proportional hazards model were used to analyze the association between SUA quartiles and the renal outcomes. Results During the median 3-year follow-up period, there were 173 ESRD outcome events (44.02%). No significant difference between SUA level and the risk of progression of DN ( P  = 0.747) was shown in the Kaplan–Meier survival analysis. In multivariable-adjusted model, hazard ratios for developing ESRD were 1.364 (0.621–2.992; P  = 0.439), 1.518 (0.768–3.002; P  = 0.230) and 1.411 (0.706–2.821; P  = 0.330) for the Q2, Q3 and Q4, respectively, in comparison with the Q1 ( P  = 0.652). Conclusions No significant association between SUA level and renal outcome of ESRD in Chinese patients with T2DM and DN was found in our study. Besides, the role of uric acid-lowering therapy in delaying DN progression and improving ESRD outcome had not yet been proven. Further study was needed to clarify the renal benefit of the uric acid-lowering therapy in the treatment of DN.

    Abstract: Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the effects of intravitreal (IVT) VEGFi on long-term renal outcomes in patients with biopsy-proven diabetic kidney disease (DKD). Patients and methods: Patients prescribed IVT VEGFi (VEGFi group) were enrolled from a retrospective cohort with biopsy-proven DKD, and those not prescribed VEGFi (non-VEGFi group) were enrolled by 1:3 propensity score matching, adjusted for clinical and pathological baseline indicators. The primary endpoint is defined as end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and the secondary endpoint is defined as all-cause mortality. Results: Compared with patients in non-VEGFi group, patients with VEGFi had a higher proportion of diabetic retinopathy (DR) (50.9% vs 100%, p & lt; 0.001) before matching. Standardized mean difference (SMD) of age, DR, duration of diabetes, the proportion of hypertension, eGFR, initial proteinuria, serum albumin, hemoglobin, the proportion of RAAS inhibitor and interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy (IFTA) were & gt;10%. After matching, there was no significant difference in clinical pathology between the two groups. Except for the proportion of hypertension, the SMD of other indicators was & lt;10%. Endpoints such as ESRD (Log-Rank p = 0.772) and all-cause mortality (Log-Rank p = 0.834) were not significantly different between the two groups. Conclusion: Our data suggested that IVT VEGFi did not increase the incidence of ESRD and all-cause mortality in patients with DKD.

    Abstract: Introduction: Nemonoxacin is an innovative quinolone antibiotic for treatment of community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). As more data are available from clinical studies, it is necessary to perform an integrative pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) analysis to support and justify the optimal dosing regimen of nemonoxacin in clinical practice. Methods and Results: We developed a population PK model using non-linear mixed effect model based on the data of 195 Chinese subjects receiving nemonoxacin in phase I to III clinical trials. The base model was a standard two-compartment PK model defined by clearance (12 L/h) and central volume of distribution (86 L). Covariates included creatinine clearance (CL cr ), body weight (BW), sex, disease status and food. Compared to the subject with BW 60 kg, C max and A U C 0 ‐ 24 ,   ss reduced by 24% and 19% in the subject with BW 80 kg, respectively. Compared to the subject with CL cr 150 ml/min, A U C 0 ‐ 24 ,   ss and T 1/2 increased by 28% and 24%, respectively in the subject with CL cr 30 ml/min. Compared to the fasted status, T max of nemonoxacin increased by 1.2 h in the subject with fed status. Effects of sex and disease status on PK parameters were small (change of PK parameters ≤19%). AUC 0–24 /MIC and %T & gt; MIC were identified as the optimal PK/PD indices for predicting clinical efficacy. The AUC 0-24 /MIC target was 63.3, 97.8, and 115.7 against Streptococcus pneumoniae , Staphylococcus aureus , and Haemophilus influenzae , respectively. The %T & gt; MIC target was 7.96% against Klebsiella pneumoniae . Monte Carlo simulation showed that treatment with nemonoxacin 500 mg q24 h could attain a PK/PD cutoff value higher than the MIC 90 against S. pneumoniae and S. aureus . The corresponding cumulative fraction of response (CFR) was greater than 93%, while nemonoxacin 750 mg q24 h would provide higher PK/PD cutoff value against Haemophilus parainfluenzae , and higher CFR (83%) than 500 mg q24 h. Conclusion: Integrative PK/PD analysis justifies the reliable clinical and microbiological efficacy of nemonoxacin 500 mg q24 h in treating CAP caused by S. pneumoniae , S. aureus , and K. pneumoniae , irrespective of patient sex, mild renal impairment, empty stomach or not. However, nemonoxacin 750 mg q24 h would provide better efficacy than 500 mg q24 h for the CAP caused by H. parainfluenzae in terms of CFR.

    Abstract: Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome (PRRS) and pseudorabies (PR) are highly infectious swine diseases and cause significant financial loss in China. The respiratory system and reproductive system are the main target systems. Previous studies showed that the existing PR virus (PRV) and PRRS virus (PRRSV) commercial vaccines could not provide complete protection against PRV variant strains and NADC30-like PRRSV strains in China. In this study, the PRV variant strain XJ and NADC30-like PRRSV strain CHSCDJY-2019 are used as the parent for constructing a recombinant pseudorabies virus (rPRV)-NC56 with gE/gI/TK gene deletion and co-expressing NADC30-like PRRSV GP5 and M protein. The rPRV-NC56 proliferated stably in BHK-21 cells, and it could stably express GP5 and M protein. Due to the introduction of the self-cleaving 2A peptide, GP5 and M protein were able to express independently and form virus-like particles (VLPs) of PRRSV in rPRV-NC56-infected BHK-21 cells. The rPRV-NC56 is safe for use in mice; it can colonize and express the target protein in mouse lungs for a long time. Vaccination with rPRV-NC56 induces PRV and NADC30-like PRRSV specific humoral and cellular immune responses in mice, and protects 100% of mice from virulent PRV XJ strain. Furthermore, the virus-neutralizing antibody (VNA) elicited by rPRV-NC56 showed significantly lower titer against SCNJ-2016 (HP-PRRSV) than that against CHSCDJY-2019 (NADC30-like PRRSV). Thus, rPRV-NC56 appears to be a promising candidate vaccine against NADC30-like PRRSV and PRV for the control and eradication of the variant PRV and NADC30-like PRRSV.
