This is a prospective, open-label, single-arm, investigator-initiated study designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of NRT6003 Injection, a yttrium-90 carbon microsphere product, administered by selective internal radiation therapy in previously treated patients with hepatocellular carcinoma. Eligible participants will undergo protocol-specified screening assessments, hepatic vascular evaluation, 99mTc-MAA hepatic arterial perfusion imaging, and dosimetry assessment before treatment. Participants who meet the eligibility criteria and are considered suitable for selective internal radiation therapy will receive a single transarterial administration of NRT6003 Injection. Safety follow-up will be conducted for 12 months after treatment, and tumor response will be assessed using mRECIST and RECIST v1.1.

Sepsis, a life-threatening syndrome, is often accompanied by tachycardia in spite of adequate volume resuscitation to correct hypovolemia and vasopressor medication to correct hypotension. Recently, relevant studies have shown that sustained tachycardia in sepsis was also related to high mortality, and appropriate control of heart rate could improve prognosis. Ivabradine reduces heart rate directly without a negative inotropic effect through inhibition of the If ionic current，which is absent from the traditional rate control drug (beta-blockers). This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, open label study designed to compare ivabradine with placebo on the difference of heart rate and haemodynamics in patients with sepsis.

This study is a multicenter, randomized, controlled study. A sample size of 240 cases is proposed to be included. The inclusion criteria are: (1) patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes; (2) age between 18 and 65 years old; (3) HbA1c ≥ 9.0%. The exclusion criteria include: (1) type 1 diabetes; (2) elevated creatinine or urinary albumin/creatinine; (3) combined with coronary heart disease, tumor or pregnancy; (4) receiving glucocorticoids. The selected participants are randomly divided into two groups: one group is the semaglutide group, and the other isthe oral medication group. The treatment plan is as follows. Semaglutide group: 0.25 mg per week in the first month, 0.5 mg per week in the second month, and 1.0mg per week from the 3rd to the 8th month of semaglutide. Oral medication group: Sitagliptin 0.1g per day. Both groups were simultaneously treated with metformin (1.0g daily, divided into two doses) and empagliflozin (10mg daily). The first phase of the study was as follows: Semaglutide group: Treatment was initiated until 6 months after the titration dose of 1mg was reached; Oral medication group: Initiate treatment until 6 months after reaching a fixed dose. At the end of the first stage of the study, for the selected participants with HbA1c\<6.5%, the hypoglycemic drugs were discontinued and they entered the second stage of the study. The study was concluded after a 3-month follow-up. The evaluation indicators include: effectiveness indicators (HbA1c, diabetes remission rate, continuous glucose monitoring), safety indicators (hypoglycemia, adverse reactions, etc.).

Status epilepticus (SE) is an acute and critical form of neurological and systemic diseases involving multiple clinical disciplines, with an annual incidence of (20-73) per 100,000 people and a clinical case fatality rate of 20%. Although there are many causes of SE, the primary goal of treatment is to terminate the seizures quickly, and timely and standardized treatment can reduce mortality and improve prognosis. The prognosis is closely related to the duration of the episode, and the longer the episode, the worse the prognosis. If seizures of convulsive status epilepticus persist for more than 10 minutes and are not provided with optimal therapeutic intervention, serious adverse outcomes and even death are likely to occur. How to effectively terminate status epilepticus and actively find effective, reliable and safe treatment options is a key research problem at present. Due to critical illness, limited treatment options, and poor prognosis, new treatments are urgently needed to terminate persistent epileptic activity. Lacosamide (LCM) is a third-generation new antiepileptic drug, which was approved in 2008 for the additive treatment of patients aged 16 years and older with focal seizures, with or without generalized seizures. In 2017, it was extended to patients over 4 years of age. Lacosamide is an anticonvulsant drug with a new dual mechanism of action: first, lacosamide antagonizes the glycine site of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor; Second, lacosamide selectively acts on the slow inactivation of sodium channels and prolongs the inactivation time of sodium channels, which can more effectively reduce sodium influx and reduce the excitability of neurons, so as to achieve the purpose of treating epilepsy. Lacosamide exhibits linear pharmacokinetics, high oral bioavailability, protein binding of \< 15%, rapid and almost complete absorption in a single oral dose, and maximum plasma concentrations within 1 to 4 hours. A number of randomized controlled clinical studies and real-world studies abroad have shown that lacosamide can significantly improve the effective rate and seizure-free rate of epilepsy control, and it is well tolerated and has fewer adverse reactions. The 2022 Chinese Expert Consensus on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Post-stroke Epilepsy recommended lacosamide injection as a first-line drug for non-convulsive status epilepticus after stroke, and the Chinese Expert Consensus on the Diagnosis and Treatment of Status Epilepticus in Children (2022) recommended that lacosamide be considered as an additive treatment for refractory convulsive status epilepticus in children \> 60 minutes . There is a lack of clinical research data on the efficacy and safety of intravenous bolus lacosamide for status epilepticus, including convulsive status epilepticus and non-convulsive epilepticus.

This study is conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lenvatinib plus SIRT (LEN+SIRT) compared with lenvatinib (LEN) alone for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) refractory to transarterial chemoembolization (TACE).

Severe pneumonia(SP) is a one of the main causes of death for critically ill patients.Samples of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) from SP patients often report positive for herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) DNA. However, to date, it is unclear the impact and significance of this positive result on SP patients. This study will evaluate the prognostic impact of lower respiratory tract HSV-1 infection/reactivation on ICU severe pneumonia patients.At the same time, by analyzing the risk factors that affect prognosis, we will identify populations with the potential for intervention benefits and provide a basis for further intervention treatment.

This study is conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of transarterial chemoembolization with drug-eluting beads (DEB-TACE) combined with hepatic artery infusion chemotherapy (HAIC) with oxaliplatin and raltitrexed (RALOX-HAIC) versus DEB-TACE alone for unresectable large hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).

This phase II trial studies how well intra-tumor injection of double checkpoint inhibitors work when given alone and in combination with chemotherapy or/and bevacizumab in treating patients with previously untreated stage I-IIIA non-small cell lung cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as ipilimumab, pembrolizumab or durvalumab, may help the body's immune system attack the tumor, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Drugs used in interventional radiological chemotherapy, such as idabubicin, can directly kill the cancer cell and release tumor antigens to activate DC function in situ. Giving intra-tumor injection of checkpoints inhibitors with or without chemotherapy and/or bevecizumab may work better than in vein infusion of the drugs in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer.
