We retrospectively analyzed advanced pancreatic cancer patients who received PD-1 inhibitor-based combination therapies during 2019-2021 in our institution. The clinical characteristics and peripheral blood inflammatory markers (neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio [NLR], platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio [PLR], lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio [LMR], and lactate dehydrogenase [LDH]) were collected at baseline. Chi-squared and Fisher's exact tests were used to evaluate relationships between the above parameters and tumor response. Cox regression analyses were employed to assess the effects of baseline factors on patients' survival and immune-related adverse events (irAEs). Overall, 67 patients who received at least two cycles of PD-1 inhibitor were considered evaluable. A lower NLR was independent predictor for objective response rate (38.1% vs. 15.2%, <i>P</i> = .037) and disease control rate (81.0% vs. 52.2%, <i>P</i> = .032). In our study population, patients with lower LDH had superior progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival(OS) (mPFS, 5.4 vs. 2.8 months, <i>P</i> < .001; mOS, 13.3 vs. 3.6 months, <i>P</i> < .001). Liver metastasis was verified to be a negative prognostic factor for PFS (2.4 vs. 7.8 months, <i>P </i>< .001) and OS (5.7 vs. 18.0 months, <i>P</i> < .001). The most common irAEs were hypothyroidism (13.4%) and rash (10.5%). Our study demonstrated that the pretreatment inflammatory markers were independent predictors for tumor response, and the baseline LDH level and liver metastasis were potential prognostic markers of survival in patients with pancreatic cancer treated with PD-1 inhibitors.</p>","PeriodicalId":13058,"journal":{"name":"Human Vaccines & Immunotherapeutics","volume":"19 1","pages":"2178791"},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2023-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pub/pmc/oa_pdf/dc/54/KHVI_19_2178791.PMC10026926.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9203465","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Rotavirus surveillance is conducted at Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Yopougon in Abidjan, the capital city.

We used sentinel surveillance data from 2014 through mid-2019 to compare trends in rotavirus pediatric gastroenteritis hospitalizations before and after rotavirus vaccine introduction. We used Poisson regression to analyze changes in rotavirus prevalence, adjusting for calendar month and accounting for total monthly admissions; January 2014 - December 2016 was considered \"pre-vaccine,\" and January 2017 - June 2019 was considered \"post-vaccine.\" Age distribution and severity were compared between periods using the Mann-Whitney U test. Rotavirus-positive admissions declined 51% (95% CI: 28%-67%), from 31.5% pre-vaccine to 14.9% afterward. The median age of rotavirus-positive children increased from 7 months (interquartile range [IQR]: 5-11) in the pre-vaccine period to 11 months (IQR: 7-18, <i>p</i> = .005) in the post-vaccine period.
