Research progress in immunosuppressive therapy for myasthenia gravis
[Journal Article]Duan Yi, Chen Yao, Liu Min et al.-China Medicine2024, No.07

Abstract:Myasthenia gravis(MG)is an autoimmune-related neuromuscular disease characterized by muscle weakness and rapid fatigue.There are various treatment strategies for MG,including symptomatic treatment,immunomodulatory therapy,biological drug therapy,and the emerging neonatal Fc receptor antagonist intervention.The goal of treatment is to control symptoms and signs and achieve clinical remission or a minimally symptomatic state.This article reviews the various approaches to the current treatment of MG,including traditional immunosuppressive therapies such as steroids,antimetabolites,and calcineurin inhibitors,as well as biologic drugs that target specific targets,such as rituximab for B cells and eculizumab for the complement system.Although a variety of treatment modalities have been shown to be effective,there are still challenges in the treatment of MG,including the diversity of treatment evaluation methods,the uncertainty of long-term treatment outcomes,and the definition of the applicability of emerging drugs.At present,neonatal Fc receptor antagonists,as an emerging treatment method,have shown good clinical efficacy in the short term,but their long-term efficacy and safety still need to be further studied.In addition,the importance of individualized treatment strategies is becoming increasingly prominent when dealing with MG subtypes with specific autoantibodies.Emerging treatment methods are based on biological drugs and research on new targets of immune pathways in order to better meet the treatment needs of different patients.

Abstract:Objective To investigate the diagnostic and prognostic evaluation value of lung ultrasound combined with interleukin-23(IL-23)and interleukin-17 in neonatal infectious pneumonia.Methods A total of 124 neonates with infectious pneumonia admitted to Shijiazhuang People's Hospital,Hebei Province from June 2020 to August 2023 were selected as the pneumonia group.According to the neonatal critical illness score,they were divided into non-critical group(>90,72 cases)and critical group(≤90,52 cases).Another 124 neonates hospitalized for jaundice without pulmonary complications during the same period were selected as the control group.According to the ultrasound examination and symptoms after 7 d of treatment,the neonates with infectious pneumonia were divided into good prognosis group and poor prognosis group.All children underwent lung ultrasound examination after admission to evaluate the lung ultrasound score,and the serum levels of IL-23 and IL-17 were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The lung ultrasound scores and serum levels of IL-23 and IL-17 in each group were compared.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the value of the above indexes in the diagnostic and prognostic evaluation of neonatal infectious pneumonia.Results The lung ultrasound score and serum levels of IL-23 and IL-17 in the pneumonia group were higher than those in the control group(all P<0.05).The lung ultrasound score and serum levels of IL-23 and IL-17 in the critical group were significantly higher than those in the non-critical group(all P<0.05).The lung ultrasound score and serum levels of IL-23 and IL-17 in the good prognosis group were significantly lower than those in the poor prognosis group(all P<0.05).ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of lung ultrasound score combined with IL-23 and IL-17 in the diagnosis of neonatal infectious pneumonia was 0.901,which was significantly larger than that of each index alone(Z=4.209,3.492,3.748,all P<0.05).The AUC of the combination of the three indicators in evaluating the prognosis of neonatal infectious pneumonia was 0.954,which was significantly larger than that of each indicator alone(Z=2.472,2.048,2.839,all P<0.05).Conclusion The lung ultrasound scores and serum levels of IL-23 and IL-17 were significantly increased in the neonates with infectious pneumonia,and the levels of them were closely related to the severity and prognosis of the disease.The combination of the three methods has better efficacy in the diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of neonatal infectious pneumonia.
