Abstract
Objective: To summarize the clinical features of 7 rare cases of hemolytic disease of newborn (HDN), and to improve the understanding of rare HDN. Methods: Data of clinical information, laboratory findings, treatments and outcomes were collected and analyzed for four cases with HDN due to anti-M, two cases due to anti-Kidd, and one case due to anti-Duffy. All of them were admitted to the Department of Neonatology, Beijing Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medial University from July 2007 to June 2017. Results: Among the four MN hemolytic babies, two were males and two were females. Jaundice was found in three cases. Two cases had hyperbilirubinemia, one of them had severe hyperbilirubinemia. All the four cases developed anemia, including severe anemia in three cases. Two cases of Kidd hemolytic disease and 1 case of Duffy hemolytic disease had jaundice and anemia, but did not reach the level of severe hyperbilirubinemia and severe anemia. MN hemolytic disease babies got negative results in direct antiglobulin test, whereas the Kidd and Duffy hemolytic disease babies had positive findings in direct antiglobulin test. None of the babies had blood transfusion, and they were discharged from the hospital. Conclusions: Without maternal and fetal blood group incompatibility (ABO or Rh blood-group system), for early onset of jaundice, severe jaundice or anemia, antiglobulin test to mother and child earlier should be administered, and MN, Kidd, Duffy and other rare hemolytic disease of the newborn should be pay attention to.

Evidence of a Resonant Structure in the e^{+}e^{-}→π^{+}D^{0}D^{*-} Cross Section between 4.05 and 4.60 GeV. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2019; 122:102002. [PMID: 30932669 DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.122.102002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/09/2018] [Revised: 02/10/2019] [Indexed: 06/09/2023]
Abstract
The cross section of the process e^{+}e^{-}→π^{+}D^{0}D^{*-} for center-of-mass energies from 4.05 to 4.60 GeV is measured precisely using data samples collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring. Two enhancements are clearly visible in the cross section around 4.23 and 4.40 GeV. Using several models to describe the dressed cross section yields stable parameters for the first enhancement, which has a mass of 4228.6±4.1±6.3 MeV/c^{2} and a width of 77.0±6.8±6.3 MeV, where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second ones are systematic. Our resonant mass is consistent with previous observations of the Y(4220) state and the theoretical prediction of a DD[over ¯]_{1}(2420) molecule. This result is the first observation of Y(4220) associated with an open-charm final state. Fits with three resonance functions with additional Y(4260), Y(4320), Y(4360), ψ(4415), or a new resonance do not show significant contributions from either of these resonances. The second enhancement is not from a single known resonance. It could contain contributions from ψ(4415) and other resonances, and a detailed amplitude analysis is required to better understand this enhancement.

Abstract
Based on an e^{+}e^{-} collision data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 567 pb^{-1} taken at the center-of-mass energy of sqrt[s]=4.6 GeV with the BESIII detector, we measure the absolute branching fraction of the inclusive decay Λ_{c}^{+}→Λ+X to be B(Λ_{c}^{+}→Λ+X)=(38.2_{-2.2}^{+2.8}±0.9)% using the double-tag method, where X refers to any possible final state particles. In addition, we search for direct CP violation in the charge asymmetry of this inclusive decay for the first time, and obtain A_{CP}≡[B(Λ_{c}^{+}→Λ+X)-B(Λ[over ¯]_{c}^{-}→Λ[over ¯]+X)]/[B(Λ_{c}^{+}→Λ+X)+B(Λ[over ¯]_{c}^{-}→Λ[over ¯]+X)]=(2.1_{-6.6}^{+7.0}±1.6)%, a statistically limited result with no evidence of CP violation.

Abstract
We report the first observation of a_{0}^{0}(980)-f_{0}(980) mixing in the decays of J/ψ→ϕf_{0}(980)→ϕa_{0}^{0}(980)→ϕηπ^{0} and χ_{c1}→a_{0}^{0}(980)π^{0}→f_{0}(980)π^{0}→π^{+}π^{-}π^{0}, using data samples of 1.31×10^{9} J/ψ events and 4.48×10^{8} ψ(3686) events accumulated with the BESIII detector. The signals of f_{0}(980)→a_{0}^{0}(980) and a_{0}^{0}(980)→f_{0}(980) mixing are observed at levels of statistical significance of 7.4σ and 5.5σ, respectively. The corresponding branching fractions and mixing intensities are measured and the constraint regions on the coupling constants, g_{a_{0}K^{+}K^{-}} and g_{f_{0}K^{+}K^{-}}, are estimated. The results improve the understanding of the nature of a_{0}^{0}(980) and f_{0}(980).

Abstract
PURPOSE Better tools are needed to estimate local recurrence (LR) risk after breast-conserving surgery (BCS) for DCIS. The DCIS score (DS) was validated as a predictor of LR in E5194 and Ontario DCIS cohort (ODC) after BCS. We combined data from E5194 and ODC adjusting for clinicopathological factors to provide refined estimates of the 10-year risk of LR after treatment by BCS alone. METHODS Data from E5194 and ODC were combined. Patients with positive margins or multifocality were excluded. Identical Cox regression models were fit for each study. Patient-specific meta-analysis was used to calculate precision-weighted estimates of 10-year LR risk by DS, age, tumor size and year of diagnosis. RESULTS The combined cohort includes 773 patients. The DS and age at diagnosis, tumor size and year of diagnosis provided independent prognostic information on the 10-year LR risk (p ≤ 0.009). Hazard ratios from E5194 and ODC cohorts were similar for the DS (2.48, 1.95 per 50 units), tumor size ≤ 1 versus > 1-2.5 cm (1.45, 1.47), age ≥ 50 versus < 50 year (0.61, 0.84) and year ≥ 2000 (0.67, 0.49). Utilization of DS combined with tumor size and age at diagnosis predicted more women with very low (≤ 8%) or higher (> 15%) 10-year LR risk after BCS alone compared to utilization of DS alone or clinicopathological factors alone. CONCLUSIONS The combined analysis provides refined estimates of 10-year LR risk after BCS for DCIS. Adding information on tumor size and age at diagnosis to the DS adjusting for year of diagnosis provides improved LR risk estimates to guide treatment decision making.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Ductal Carcinoma in Situ (DCIS) is a non-invasive breast cancer often treated with breast-conserving surgery (BCS) with or without radiotherapy (RT). It is unclear if the presence of microinvasion (MI) (invasion ≤1mm) is associated with an increased risk of LR (DCIS or invasive) or invasive LR compared to women with pure DCIS. In addition, the impact of multiple foci (>2) of MI compared to pure DCIS is also unknown; therefore, it is unclear if some women with MI require more aggressive treatment. We evaluated the impact of the presence of MI and the number of foci of MI on the risks of any LR and invasive LR in a population of women with DCIS with and without MI treated with BCS.
Methods: The cohort includes all women diagnosed with pure DCIS or DCIS with MI in Ontario from 1994-2003 treated with BCS +/- RT. All cases had systematic pathology review to confirm the presence and number of foci of MI. Treatment and outcomes were ascertained through administrative databases and validated by chart review. Cox proportional hazards model was used to evaluate the impact of MI and the number of foci of MI (1 vs >2 foci) on the development of any LR and invasive LR compared to cases with pure DCIS. The 10-yr local recurrence-free survival (LRFS) and invasive LRFS rates were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier approach with differences compared using the log-rank test.
Results: The population cohort includes 2,988 women with DCIS treated by BCS (N=2,721 pure DCIS, N= 267 DCIS with MI). Median follow-up (12 years; p=.23) and median age at diagnosis (58 years; p=.17) were similar in both groups. RT was given in 58% of cases with MI and 51% of cases with pure DCIS (p=.03). Hormonal therapy was utilized in 7.1% of women with MI and 5.3% of women with pure DCIS (p=.22). LR developed in 59 (22.1%) cases with MI and 530 (19.6%) cases of pure DCIS. Women with MI were more likely to have high nuclear grade (p<.001), and larger tumor size (p<.001) compared to those without MI. On multivariable analyses adjusted for age, the presence of 1 focus of MI(HR=.92, 95% CI: .64-1.33) or ≥2 foci of MI (HR=1.26, 95% CI: .85-1.85) was not associated with an increased risk of any LR compared to cases with pure DCIS. Factors associated with any LR were age <50 years at diagnosis, RT, multifocality and high nuclear grade. The presence of 1 focus of MI (HR=.86, 95% CI: .52-1.40) or > 2 foci of MI (HR=1.45, 95% CI: .90-2.32) was also not associated with an increased risk of invasive LR compared to cases of pure DCIS. Among women treated with BCS alone, the 10 year LRFS rates were 80%, 75% and 73% for women with pure DCIS, 1 focus, >2 foci of MI (p=.10). The invasive LRFS rates were 89%, 91% and 85% (p=.26). Among women treated with BCS+RT, the 10 year LRFS rates were 87%, 88% and 80% (p=0.32) for women with pure DCIS, 1 focus or ≥2 foci of MI. The invasive LRFS rates were 93%, 90% and 86% (p=.44). There was no interaction between the presence of MI and RT.
Conclusions: Women with DCIS with one or multiple foci of microinvasion (<1mm) treated by breast conserving therapy do not have an increased risk of LR or invasive LR compared to women with pure DCIS.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Most women diagnosed with DCIS will be treated by breast-conserving surgery (BCS) with or without radiotherapy (RT). Data on outcomes following breast-conserving therapy are predominantly based on women with small (<25mm) lesions. The paucity of data on outcomes of women with larger (>40mm) DCIS lesions leads to uncertainty of the appropriateness of breast-conserving therapy for women with larger lesions. Specifically, it is unclear if women with large tumors experience higher risks of local recurrence (LR) and invasive LR after BCS+/-RT that would preclude recommendations of breast-conserving therapy. We report the outcomes and evaluate the impact of large tumor size (>40mm) on recurrence risk in a population of women with pure DCIS treated by BCS alone or with RT.
Methods: The cohort includes all women diagnosed with DCIS in Ontario from 1994-2003 treated with BCS +/- RT; 82% had pathology review. Treatment and outcomes were ascertained through administrative databases and validated by chart review. Cox proportional hazards model was used to evaluate the impact of tumor size (≤10mm,11-25mm, 26-39mm, ≥40mm) on the development of any LR (DCIS or invasive) and invasive LR. The 10 and 15-year LR-free survival (LRFS) and invasive LRFS rates were calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method with differences compared using the log-rank test.
Results: The cohort includes 3262 women with DCIS treated by BCS (N=1635 had RT). Median age at diagnosis was 59 years (IQR 50-68 years). Median follow-up was 13 years (IQR 8-15 years). Distribution of tumor size: 707 (22%) ≤10mm, 524 (16%) 11-25mm, 107 (3%) 26-39mm, 84 (3%) ≥40mm, unable to determine in 1840 (56%). Women with lesions ≥ 40mm were more likely to be ≤50 years of age at diagnosis (p=.02), have high nuclear grade (p<.001), multifocality (p<.001), and positive margins (p<.001) compared to women with smaller lesions. On multivariable analyses adjusted for age and year of diagnosis, tumor size ≥40mm was significantly associated with an increased risk of LR compared to size ≤10mm (HR=2.5, 95%CI:1.64-3.81). Other factors associated with LR were age <50 years (p<.001), omission of RT (p<.001), high nuclear grade (p=.002), and multifocality (p=.0008). Tumor size ≥40mm was not significantly associated with an increased risk of invasive LR (HR=1.68, 95%CI:.94-3.04). Women with tumour size ≥40mm treated with BCS alone had lower 10 and 15 year LRFS (53% and 41%) and invasive LRFS rates (78% and 75%) compared to women with smaller lesions. However, women with larger lesions treated with RT had significantly higher LRFS and invasive LRFS rates

Abstract
This retrospective study aims to compare differences in the medical costs between inpatients infected/colonised with carbapenem-resistant (CRAB) and carbapenem-susceptible (CSAB) Acinetobacter baumannii in a hospital in Zhejiang province, China. Because the patient population was large, we randomly selected 60% of all inpatients with clinical specimens between 2013 and 2015. We classified the A. baumannii cases as CRAB or CSAB based on antibiotic susceptibility testing. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to identify factors associated with the total medical cost (TMC). Those included in the study totalled 2980 inpatients, 71.3% of whom had CRAB infection/colonisation. Differences in the TMC between the CRAB and CSAB groups were lower by multivariate analyses than the differences obtained by univariate analyses. Carbapenem resistance was significantly associated with an approximately 1.5-fold increase in the TMC after accounting for confounding factors. Our study highlights the heavy financial burden imposed by A. baumannii and carbapenem resistance on the Chinese healthcare system.

Abstract
BCR-ABL1-targeting tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) have revolutionized treatment of Philadelphia chromosome-positive (Ph+) hematologic neoplasms. Nevertheless, acquired TKI resistance remains a major problem in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML), and TKIs are less effective against Ph+ B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). GAB2, a scaffolding adaptor that binds and activates SHP2, is essential for leukemogenesis by BCR-ABL1, and a GAB2 mutant lacking SHP2 binding cannot mediate leukemogenesis. Using a genetic loss-of-function approach and bone marrow transplantation (BMT) models for CML and BCR-ABL1+ B-ALL, we show that SHP2 is required for BCR-ABL1-evoked myeloid and lymphoid neoplasia. Ptpn11 deletion impairs initiation and maintenance of CML-like myeloproliferative neoplasm, and compromises induction of BCR-ABL1+ B-ALL. SHP2, and specifically, its SH2 domains, PTP activity and C-terminal tyrosines, is essential for BCR-ABL1+, but not WT, pre-B cell proliferation. The MEK/ERK pathway is regulated by SHP2 in WT and BCR-ABL1+ pre-B cells, but is only required for the proliferation of BCR-ABL1+ cells. SHP2 is required for SRC family kinase (SFK) activation only in BCR-ABL1+ pre-B cells. RNAseq reveals distinct SHP2-dependent transcriptional programs in BCR-ABL1+ and WT pre-B cells. Our results suggest that SHP2, via SFKs and ERK, represses MXD3/4 to facilitate a MYC-dependent proliferation program in BCR-ABL1-transformed pre-B cells.

Abstract
Abstract
Background: Despite evidence that radiotherapy (RT) after breast-conserving surgery (BCS) for ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) halves the risk of recurrence, the benefit of RT in the management of DCIS continues to be a matter of controversy. One argument against the use of RT after BCS is that patients who develop ipsilateral local recurrence (LR) can be salvaged with further breast-conserving surgery such that the omission of RT will lead to high rates of breast preservation while minimizing exposure to RT. Breast preservation is an important determinant of quality of life for women with early stage breast cancer and DCIS. Yet the management of LR and the impact of RT on the resultant long-term risks of bilateral breast preservation in a population of women with DCIS are unclear. We assessed the treatment of LR, the impact of RT on the use of salvage mastectomy and the long-term risks of bilateral breast preservation achieved in a population of women with DCIS treated with BCS alone or BCS+RT.
Methods: A population-based analysis of women diagnosed with DCIS from 1994-2003 treated with BCS alone or BCS+RT with pathology review. Treatment and outcomes, including the development of LR and contralateral breast events, were determined by administrative databases with validation by review of operative or pathology reports. Median follow-up was 10.2 years for cases treated by BCS alone, 11.6 years for those treated by BCS+RT. We used a propensity-adjusted Cox proportional hazards model to evaluate factors associated with the use of salvage mastectomy for LR and to evaluate factors associated with any mastectomy. We assessed the risk of long-term breast preservation by calculating the KM 10-year risk of ipsilateral mastectomy and any mastectomy.
Results: The population cohort includes 3303 women with pure DCIS;1649 (50%) were treated by BCS alone, 1654 (50%) received BCS+RT. Women treated with RT had more high risk features of DCIS than those treated by BCS alone. LR developed in 343 (21%) women treated by BCS alone and in 257 (15.5%) women treated by BCS+RT (p<0.01). Most women who developed LR received salvage mastectomy, irrespective of age at diagnosis and histology. Salvage mastectomy was used in 57.4% (197/343) of cases that recurred after BCS alone and in 67.6% (173/257) that recurred after BCS+RT. The likelihood of receiving salvage mastectomy for LR was similar in patients initially treated by BCS+RT vs. those initially treated BCS alone. Most (90%) of mastectomies were performed for a LR. Overall, individuals initially treated by BCS+RT had a 29% lower probability of having a mastectomy at 10 years compared to those treated by BCS alone (HR=0.71, 95%CI: 0.60,0.84,p<0.0001). The 10 year mastectomy-free survival rates are 82.7% for women initially treated by BCS alone and 87.3% for those treated by BCS+RT (p=0.0096).
Conclusion: Women who received RT after BCS for DCIS experience a greater likelihood of long-term bilateral breast preservation. This is attributable to the lower risks of LR and that most local recurrences after breast-conserving therapy are treated by salvage mastectomy. Long-term breast preservation should be considered in discussions weighing the benefits and risks of RT after conservative surgery for DCIS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is associated with colorectal neoplasia. Yet, NAFLD ranges from simple steatosis to steatohepatitis with advanced fibrosis. AIM To investigate the risk of colorectal neoplasia according to the presence and severity of NAFLD. METHODS A total of 26 540 asymptomatic adults who underwent same day first-time colonoscopy and abdominal ultrasonography as a health check-up programme were analysed. NAFLD was diagnosed by ultrasonography. Advanced colorectal neoplasia was defined as an invasive cancer or adenoma that was at least 10 mm in diameter, had high-grade dysplasia, or had villous histological characteristics or any combination thereof. RESULTS NAFLD patients had a higher prevalence of any colorectal neoplasia (38.0% vs. 28.9%) and advanced colorectal neoplasia (2.8% vs. 1.9%) compared to those without NAFLD. In a multivariable model adjusted for age, sex, smoking, alcohol, body mass index, first-degree family history of colorectal cancer, aspirin use and metabolic factors, the odd ratios comparing patients with NAFLD to those without were 1.10 [95% confidence interval (CI): 1.03-1.17] for any colorectal neoplasia and 1.21 (95% CI: 0.99-1.47) for advanced colorectal neoplasia. When NAFLD patients were further stratified according to the non-invasive parameters of liver disease severity, the risk of any colorectal neoplasia or advanced colorectal neoplasia was higher for those with severe liver diseases than those with mild liver diseases. CONCLUSIONS The presence and severity of NAFLD were closely associated with any colorectal neoplasia and advanced colorectal neoplasia, suggesting that clinicians should be aware of the increased risk of colorectal neoplasia in patients with NAFLD.

Abstract
AIMS To develop real-time PCR assays for quantification of shoot infection levels of canker disease of stone fruits and nut crops caused by six fungal pathogen groups. METHODS AND RESULTS This study focused on six major canker-causing fungal pathogen groups: Phomopsis sp., Botryosphaeria dothidea, Lasiodiplodia sp., Cytospora sp., Neofusicoccum sp. and Diplodia sp., occurring in stone fruits and nut crops in California. DNA primers were designed to specifically target each of the six pathogen groups after the specificity tests using canker-causing and non-canker-causing pathogens and by using DNA sequences of other species from GenBank using blast. The quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) systems were developed and used to quantify the infection levels of inoculated dried plum shoots. CONCLUSIONS For Neofusicoccum sp. and Phomopsis sp., which were used in inoculation of walnut shoots, the values of the molecular severity ranged from 5·60 to 6·94 during the 16 days of latent infection period. The qPCR assays were more efficient, accurate and precise to quantify latent infections caused by canker-causing pathogens as compared to the traditional plating methods. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY This study demonstrated the potential of using the developed qPCR systems for epidemiological studies on canker diseases of woody plants.

Abstract
BACKGROUND After treatment for early-stage breast cancer (bca), annual surveillance mammography (asm) is recommended based on the assumption that early detection of an invasive ipsilateral breast tumour recurrence or subsequent invasive contralateral primary bca reduces bca mortality. METHODS We studied women with unilateral early-stage bca treated by breast-conserving surgery from 1994 to 1997 who subsequently developed an ipsilateral recurrence or contralateral primary more than 24 months after initial diagnosis, without prior regional or distant metastases. Annual surveillance mammography was defined as 2 episodes of bilateral mammography 11-18 months apart during the 2 years preceding the ipsilateral recurrence or contralateral primary. The association between asm and bca death was evaluated using a Cox proportional hazards model. RESULTS We identified 669 women who experienced invasive ipsilateral recurrence (n = 455) or a contralateral primary (n = 214) at a median interval of 53 months [interquartile range (iqr): 37-72 months] after initial diagnosis, 64.7% of whom had received asm during the preceding 2 years. The median interval between the 2 bilateral mammograms was 12.3 months (iqr: 11.9-13.0 months), and the median interval between the 2nd mammogram and histopathologic confirmation of ipsilateral recurrence or contralateral primary was 1.5 months (iqr: 0.8-3.9 months). Median followup after ipsilateral recurrence or contralateral primary was 7.76 years (iqr: 3.68-9.81 years). The adjusted hazard ratio for bca death associated with asm was 0.86 (95% confidence limits: 0.63, 1.16). CONCLUSIONS Annual surveillance mammography was associated with a modestly lowered hazard ratio for bca death.
