RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical efficacy of oral dydrogesterone and micronized vaginal progesterone (MVP) gel during the first HRT-FET cycle. METHODS: A retrospective cohort study based on a total of 344 women undergoing their first HRT-FET cycles without Gonadotropin-Releasing Hormone agonist (GnRH-a) pretreatment was conducted. All the cycles were allocated to two groups in the reproductive medical center at the University of Hong Kong-Shenzhen Hospital. One group (n = 193) received oral dydrogesterone 30 mg/d before embryo transfer, while the other group (n = 151) received MVP gel 180 mg/d. RESULTS: The demographics and baseline characteristics of two groups were comparable. We found no statistically significant difference in live birth rate (24.35% vs. 31.13%, P = 0.16), clinical pregnancy rate (34.72% vs. 36.42%, P = 0.74), embryo implantation rate (25.09% vs. 28.36%, P = 0.43), positive pregnancy rate (42.49% vs 38.41%, P = 0.45), miscarriage rate (9.33% vs 3.97%, P = 0.05), or ectopic pregnancy rate (0.52% vs. 0.66%, P = 0.86) between the oral dydrogesterone group and MVP gel group. In the multivariate logistic regression analysis for covariates, medication used for luteal support was not associated with live birth rate (OR = 0.73, 95% CI: 0.32-1.57, P = 0.45). And the different luteal support medication did not have a significant positive association with the live birth rate in the cycles with day 2 embryo transferred (OR = 1.39, 95% CI:0.66-2.39, P = 0.39) and blastocyst transferred (OR = 1.31 95% CI:0.64-2.69, P = 0.46). CONCLUSION: 30 mg/d oral dydrogesterone and 180 mg/d MVP gel revealed similar reproductive outcomes in HRT-FET cycles in the study.

Abstract: This report summarises Australia's spontaneous (passive) surveillance data for adverse events following immunisation (AEFI) for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines in 2021 reported to the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA). The TGA strongly promoted and facilitated adverse event reporting in preparation for, and during, the COVID-19 vaccine rollout as a core component of the most intensive vaccine safety monitoring ever conducted in Australia. There were 111,348 AEFI reports for COVID-19 vaccines administered in 2021, an annual AEFI reporting rate of 271.4 per 100,000 doses of COVID-19 vaccines administered to people aged ≥ 12 years. The annual AEFI reporting rate for non-COVID-19 vaccines in 2021 was 30.6 per 100,000 doses administered to people of all ages. Overall, the most frequently reported symptoms were headache, adverse events classified as 'gastrointestinal nonspecific symptoms and therapeutic procedures', myalgia, pyrexia and fatigue, which were consistent with common expected adverse events following COVID-19 vaccines used in Australia. The most commonly reported adverse events of special interest were myocarditis and/or pericarditis, followed by thrombosis and thromboembolism, and anaphylaxis. Of all COVID-19 vaccine AEFI reports, 762 (0.7%) included a fatal outcome, of which over 80% were in people aged ≥ 60 years. Thirteen deaths reported in 2021 were assessed as likely to be causally linked to vaccination. This report confirms the value of spontaneous post-marketing vaccine pharmacovigilance, especially in the context of new vaccines using novel vaccine technologies and near whole-of-population pandemic vaccination programs. The most frequently reported AEFI for COVID-19 vaccines were common, mild and temporary (lasting 1 or 2 days), and consistent with clinical trial and active surveillance data. Ongoing safety monitoring detected rare, unexpected conditions, such as myocarditis/pericarditis and thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome (TTS), which were investigated and confirmed as safety signals, resulting in changes to vaccine recommendations and product information. The outcomes of TGA monitoring were published in weekly vaccine safety reports. Overall, COVID-19 vaccine safety monitoring provided critical information on the risks of vaccine related adverse events that enabled decisionmakers to undertake informed risk-benefit assessments.

Abstract: This report summarises Australia's spontaneous surveillance data for adverse events following immunisation (AEFI) for 2021 reported to the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) and describes reporting trends over the 22-year period 1 January 2000 to 31 December 2021. This report excludes AEFI reports featuring pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccines, which are reported separately. There were 3,452 AEFI reports for non-COVID-19 vaccines administered in 2021, an annual AEFI reporting rate of 13.4 per 100,000 population compared with 14.9 per 100,000 population in 2020. This small decrease in the AEFI reporting rate in 2021 could potentially be related to an increased focus on COVID-19 vaccines and related AEFI, which are not included in this report. AEFI reporting rates for individual vaccines in 2021 were similar to 2020, as were the most commonly reported adverse events. Of the six deaths following vaccination in 2021 reported to the TGA, none were found to have a causal relationship with vaccination.

INTRODUCTION: Glioma is the most frequent and lethal form of primary brain tumor. The molecular mechanism of oncogenesis and progression of glioma still remains unclear, rendering the therapeutic effect of conventional radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and surgical resection insufficient. In this study, we sought to explore the function of HEC1 (highly expressed in cancer 1) in glioma; a component of the NDC80 complex in glioma is crucial in the regulation of kinetochore. METHODS: Bulk RNA and scRNA-seq analyses were used to infer HEC1 function, and in vitro experiments validated its function. RESULTS: HEC1 overexpression was observed in glioma and was indicative of poor prognosis and malignant clinical features, which was confirmed in human glioma tissues. High HEC1 expression was correlated with more active cell cycle, DNA-associated activities, and the formation of immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, including interaction with immune cells, and correlated strongly with infiltrating immune cells and enhanced expression of immune checkpoints. In vitro experiments and RNA-seq further confirmed the role of HEC1 in promoting cell proliferation, and the expression of DNA replication and repair pathways in glioma. Coculture assay confirmed that HEC1 promotes microglial migration and the transformation of M1 phenotype macrophage to M2 phenotype. CONCLUSION: Altogether, these findings demonstrate that HEC1 may be a potential prognostic marker and an immunotherapeutic target in glioma.
