[Establishment and validation of nomogram prediction model for complicated acute appendicitis]

Objective: To establish and internally validate a nomogram model for predicting complicated acute appendicitis (CA). Methods: The clinical data from 663 acute appendicitis patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from October 2015 to October 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 411 males and 252 females, aged (M (IQR)) 41 (22) years (range: 18 to 84 years). There were 516 cases of CA and 147 cases of uncomplicated acute appendicitis. The minimum absolute contraction and selection operator regression model was used to screen the potential relative factors of CA, and the screened factors were included in the Logistic regression model for multivariate analysis. Software R was used to establish a preoperative CA nomogram prediction model, the receiver operating characteristic curve of the model was drawn, and the value of area under the curve (AUC) was compared to evaluate its identification ability, and the Bootstrap method was used for internal verification. Results: The elderly (age≥60 years) (OR=2.428, 95%CI: 1.295 to 4.549), abdominal pain time (every rise of 1 hour) (OR=1.089, 95%CI: 1.072 to 1.107), high fever (body temperature≥39 ℃) (OR=1.122, 95%CI: 1.078 to 1.168), total bilirubin (every rise of 1 μmol/L) (OR=2.629, 95%CI: 1.227 to 5.635) were independent relative factors of CA (all P<0.05). The AUC of this model was 0.935 (95%CI: 0.915 to 0.956). After internal verification using the Bootstrap method, the model still had a high discrimination ability (AUC=0.933), and the predicted CA curve was still in good agreement with the actual clinical CA curve. Conclusion: The clinical prediction model based on the elderly (age≥60 years), prolonged abdominal pain time, high fever (body temperature≥39 ℃), and increased total bilirubin can help clinicians effectively identify CA.

[One case of severe exogenous lipoid pneumonia complicated with lung abscess caused by diesel inhalation]

Exogenous lipoid pneumonia is an inflammatory response to the lungs caused by inhaled lipid substances, which is prone to secondary bacterial infection, resulting in the formation of local abscesses, which can be life-threatening in severe cases. This paper reports a case of a 55-year-old patient with diesel aspiration, secondary to Klebsiella pneumoniae (ESBL positive) and Candida glabrata infection resulting in lung abscess formation. He was treated with a variety of antibacterial drugs for anti-infection, non-invasive ventilator ventilation, bronchoalveolar lavage, glucocorticoids, phlegm and other medical treatments. Finally, he underwent middle lobectomy for improvement and was discharged from the hospital, and he recovered well with regular follow-up.

Objective: To explore the intervention effect and mechanism of Dendrobium officinale leaf fermentation liquid on alcoholic hepatitis (AH) mice. Methods: Seventy inbred C57BL/6J male mice aged 6-8 weeks were selected and randomly divided into normal group (NG), model group (MG), liquid feed control group (CG), silybum group (SI), low-dose group (DL), medium-dose group (DM), and high-dose group (DH) of Dendrobium officinale fermentation liquid, with 10 mice in each group. NG group was given common feed, CG group was given control feed (LB alcoholic liquid control feed), SI group was given LB alcoholic liquid feed and silybum by gavage, DL, DM and DH groups were given LB alcoholic liquid feed and 25%, 50% and 100% concentration of Dendrobium officinale leaf fermentation liquid by gavage. An AH model was established by feeding LB alcoholic liquid feed for 8 weeks.At week 8, alanine Transaminase (ALT), triglyceride (TG), transferrin (TRF), interleukin (IL)-6, IL-10, and IL-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), interferon-γ(IFN-γ) were detected in eye blood of mice. Liver tissues were stained with HE, Oil Red O, Prussian blue and immunofluorescence ROS. The contents of glutathione(GSH) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in liver tissue homogenate were detected. To analyze the intervention effect and mechanism of Dendrobium officinale leaf fermentation solution on AH mice, the mRNA and protein relative expression levels of adenylate activated protein kinase (AMPK), AMPKβ1, phosphorylated AMPKβ1 (p-AMPKβ1), tumor suppressor gene p53 (p53), solsolic vector family 7 member 11 (SLC7A11), glutathione peroxidase 4 (GXP4) were detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and Western blot. Results: Compared with MG group, the serum ALT and TG levels in the DL, DM, and DH groups were all reduced [ALT: (45.94±19.85), (45.73±22.62), and (41.68±7.13) vs (75.51±17.76) U/L, respectively; TG: (0.90±0.23), (0.69±0.22) and (0.41±0.20) vs (1.28±0.19) mmol/L, respectively, all P<0.05]; IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α, IFN-γ were decreased (all P<0.05). The serum TRF and IL-10 levels in the DM and DH groups were increased (all P<0.05). Compared with MG group, the liver tissue MDA of mice in DL, DM and DH groups was decreased [(0.41±0.05), (0.40±0.03), and (0.43±0.14) vs (0.64±0.06)μmol/g, respectively], GSH was increased (all P<0.05). Compared with MG, mRNA expression levels of AMPK (1.36±0.11, 1.61±0.17, 1.68±0.11 vs 0.80±0.12, respectively), SLC7A11 (0.91±0.12, 0.97±0.12, 0.99±0.13 vs 0.60±0.14, respectively) and GPX4 (0.51±0.11, 0.63±0.17, 0.83±0.15 vs 0.42±0.14, respectively) in the liver tissue of DL, DM and DH groups were all increased (all P<0.05). Compared with MG group, DL, DM and DH groups showed the relative expression levels of AMPKβ1, p-AMPKβ1, SLC7A11 and GPX4 were increased in the liver tissue of mice, while the relative expression levels of p53 protein were decreased (all P<0.05). Compared with MG group, DL, DM and DH groups reduced the degree of hepatic steatosis and inflammation in the lobules, while the iron and ROS staining in the liver tissue became lighter. Conclusion: Dendrobium officinale leaf fermentation liquid can alleviate the severity of AH in mice, and its mechanism may be related to the up-regulation of AMPK to inhibiting the p53/SLC7A11/GPX4 mediated Ferroptosis pathway.

[Research advances on improving the therapeutic efficacy of mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes in wound repair]

How to promote high-quality wound healing is a common problem for plastic surgery and burn physicians. In recent years, numerous animal studies have demonstrated that mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes promote wound repair through multiple mechanisms and are promising cell-free therapeutic agents with broad prospect of application. How to enhance the therapeutic efficacy of exosomes, optimize their drug delivery strategy, and improve their biological properties are the challenges to be overcome in order to move from basic research to clinical application of exosome therapy for wound repair. This article focuses on methods to improve the wound repair potential of mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes, and reviews the recent research advances on improving the therapeutic efficacy of mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes in wound repair from three aspects, including pretreatment of parental mesenchymal stem cells, hydrogel bio-scaffold loaded with exosomes, and engineered exosomes, to provide a reference for further clinical studies.

[Application and clinical significance of intercellular proximity labeling technique in chronic myelogenous leukemia]

Objective: This study aimed to explore the application of interaction-dependent fucosyl-biotinylation (FucoID), a chemical biology-based proximity labeling technique, in capturing tumor antigen-specific T cells and its clinical value in chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) . Methods: Flow cytometry and fluorescence microscopy were employed to evaluate the experimental parameters for FucoID in CML. Peripheral blood samples were obtained from 14 newly diagnosed CML patients in the chronic phase. These samples underwent flow cytometry-based sorting and were subsequently labeled with FucoID to facilitate the isolation of tumor cells and T cells, followed by the immunophenotypic identification of tumor antigen-specific T cells. Finally, the diagnostic and therapeutic potential of FucoID in CML was assessed. Results: Initially, the experimental parameters for FucoID in CML were established. The proportion of CD3(+) T cells in patients was (8.96±6.47) %, exhibiting a marked decrease compared with that in healthy individuals at (38.89±22.62) %. The proportion of tumor-specific antigen-reactive T cells was (3.34±4.49) %, which demonstrated interpatient variability. In addition, the proportion of tumor-specific antigen-active T cells in CD4(+) T cells was (3.95±1.72) %, which was generally lower than the proportion in CD8(+) T cells at (5.68±2.18) %. Compared with those in tumor-specific antigen-nonreactive T cells, CCR7(-)CD45RA(-) effector memory T cells and CCR7(-)CD45RA(+) effector T cells were highly enriched in tumor-specific antigen-reactive T cells. Moreover, the intensity of tumor immune reactivity in patients exhibited a significant correlation with white blood cell count (WBC) and hemoglobin (HGB) levels in peripheral blood, while no such correlation was observed with other clinical baseline characteristics. Conclusion: The combination of FucoID and flow cytometry enables the rapid identification and isolation of tumor antigen-specific T cells in CML. The successful application of this method in CML and the implications of our findings suggest its potential clinical value in the field of hematologic malignancies.

[The value of cardiac MRI in the risk stratification in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy]

Objective: To explore the value of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) in the risk stratification of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Methods: HCM patients who underwent CMR examination in Fuwai Hospital between March 2012 and May 2013 were retrospectively enrolled. Baseline clinical and CMR data were collected and patient follow-up was performed using telephone contact and medical record. The primary composite endpoint was sudden cardiac death (SCD) or and equivalent event. The secondary composite endpoint was all-cause death and heart transplant. Patients were divided into SCD and non-SCD groups. Cox regression was used to explore risk factors of adverse events. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was used to assess the performance and the optimal cut-off of late gadolinium enhancement percentage (LGE%) for the prediction of endpoints. Kaplan-Meier and log-rank tests were used to compare survival differences between groups. Results: A total of 442 patients were enrolled. Mean age was (48.5±12.4) years and 143(32.4%) were female. At (7.6±2.5) years of follow-up, 30 (6.8%) patients met the primary endpoint including 23 SCD and 7 SCD equivalent events, and 36 (8.1%) patients met the secondary endpoint including 33 all-cause death and 3 heart transplant. In multivariate Cox regression, syncope(HR=4.531, 95%CI 2.033-10.099, P<0.001), LGE% (HR=1.075, 95%CI 1.032-1.120, P=0.001) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) (HR=0.956, 95%CI 0.923-0.991, P=0.013) were independent risk factors for primary endpoint; Age (HR=1.032, 95%CI 1.001-1.064, P=0.046), atrial fibrillation (HR=2.977, 95%CI 1.446-6.131, P=0.003),LGE% (HR=1.075, 95%CI 1.035-1.116, P<0.001) and LVEF (HR=0.968, 95%CI 0.937-1.000, P=0.047) were independent risk factors for secondary endpoint. ROC curve showed the optimal LGE% cut-offs were 5.1% and 5.8% for the prediction of primary and secondary endpoint, respectively. Patients were further divided into LGE%=0, 0<LGE%<5%, 5%≤LGE%<15% and LGE%≥15% groups. There were significant survival differences between these 4 groups whether for primary endpoint or secondary endpoint (all P<0.001) and the accumulated incidence of primary endpoint was 1.2% (2/161), 2.2% (2/89), 10.5% (16/152) and 25.0% (10/40), respectively. Conclusion: LGE is an independent risk factor for SCD events as well as all-cause death and heart transplant. LGE is of important value in the risk stratification in patients with HCM.

Metronomic capecitabine inhibits liver transplant rejection in rats by triggering recipients’ T cell ferroptosis

BACKGROUND

Capecitabine (CAP) is a classic antimetabolic drug and has shown potential antirejection effects after liver transplantation (LT) in clinical studies. Our previous study showed that metronomic CAP can cause the programmed death of T cells by inducing oxidative stress in healthy mice. Ferroptosis, a newly defined non-apoptotic cell death that occurs in response to iron overload and lethal levels of lipid peroxidation, is an important mechanism by which CAP induces cell death. Therefore, ferroptosis may also play an important role in CAP-induced T cell death and play an immunosuppressive role in acute rejection after trans-plantation.

AIM

To investigate the functions and underlying mechanisms of antirejection effects of metronomic CAP.

METHODS

A rat LT model of acute rejection was established, and the effect of metronomic CAP on splenic hematopoietic function and acute graft rejection was evaluated 7 d after LT. In vitro, primary CD3⁺ T cells were sorted from rat spleens and human peripheral blood, and co-cultured with or without 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) (active agent of CAP). The levels of ferroptosis-related proteins, ferrous ion concentration, and oxidative stress-related indicators were observed. The changes in mito-chondrial structure were observed using electron microscopy.

RESULTS

With no significant myelotoxicity, metronomic CAP alleviated graft injury (Banff score 9 vs 7.333, P < 0.001), prolonged the survival time of the recipient rats (11.5 d vs 16 d, P < 0.01), and reduced the infiltration rate of CD3⁺ T cells in peripheral blood (6.859 vs 3.735, P < 0.001), liver graft (7.459 vs 3.432, P < 0.001), and spleen (26.92 vs 12.9, P < 0.001), thereby inhibiting acute rejection after LT. In vitro, 5-FU, an end product of CAP metabolism, induced the degradation of the ferritin heavy chain by upregulating nuclear receptor coactivator 4, which caused the accumulation of ferrous ions. It also inhibited nuclear erythroid 2 p45-related factor 2, heme oxygenase-1, and glutathione peroxidase 4, eventually leading to oxidative damage and ferroptosis of T cells.

CONCLUSION

Metronomic CAP can suppress acute allograft rejection in rats by triggering CD3⁺ T cell ferroptosis, which makes it an effective immunosuppressive agent after LT.

[A case of corrosive digestive tract and lung injury caused by ingestion of pipeline dredging agent]

Ingestion of corrosive substances can severely burn the upper digestive tract leading to bleeding or perforation, and may even be life-threatening. Less commonly, damage to the trachea and bronchi is involved. In this paper, a case of corrosive digestive tract injury and lung injury after oral administration of pipeline dredging agent (the main components are hydroxide, sodium carbonate, sodium hypochlorite, etc.) was analyzed. After active rescue treatment, the patient died of massive hemoptysis. It is suggested that serious complications may occur after ingestion of corrosive substances. Timely diagnosis and reasonable medical management are needed to improve the level of recognition and treatment of such diseases.

[Establishment of leukemia cell model with inducible AML1-ETO expression and its effect on fatty acid metabolism in leukemia cells]

Objective: To investigate the effect of the AML1-ETO (AE) fusion gene on the biological function of U937 leukemia cells by establishing a leukemia cell model that induces AE fusion gene expression. Methods: The doxycycline (Dox) -dependent expression of the AE fusion gene in the U937 cell line (U937-AE) were established using a lentivirus vector system. The Cell Counting Kit 8 methods, including the PI and sidanilide induction, were used to detect cell proliferation, cell cycle-induced differentiation assays, respectively. The effect of the AE fusion gene on the biological function of U937-AE cells was preliminarily explored using transcriptome sequencing and metabonomic sequencing. Results: ①The Dox-dependent Tet-on regulatory system was successfully constructed to regulate the stable AE fusion gene expression in U937-AE cells. ②Cell proliferation slowed down and the cell proliferation rate with AE expression (3.47±0.07) was lower than AE non-expression (3.86 ± 0.05) after inducing the AE fusion gene expression for 24 h (P<0.05). The proportion of cells in the G(0)/G(1) phase in the cell cycle increased, with AE expression [ (63.45±3.10) %) ] was higher than AE non-expression [ (41.36± 9.56) %] (P<0.05). The proportion of cells expressing CD13 and CD14 decreased with the expression of AE. The AE negative group is significantly higher than the AE positive group (P<0.05). ③The enrichment analysis of the transcriptome sequencing gene set revealed significantly enriched quiescence, nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells, interferon-α/γ, and other inflammatory response and immune regulation signals after AE expression. ④Disorder of fatty acid metabolism of U937-AE cells occurred under the influence of AE. The concentration of the medium and short-chain fatty acid acylcarnitine metabolites decreased in cells with AE expressing, propionyl L-carnitine, wherein those with AE expression (0.46±0.13) were lower than those with AE non-expression (1.00±0.27) (P<0.05). The metabolite concentration of some long-chain fatty acid acylcarnitine increased in cells with AE expressing tetradecanoyl carnitine, wherein those with AE expression (1.26±0.01) were higher than those with AE non-expression (1.00±0.05) (P<0.05) . Conclusion: This study successfully established a leukemia cell model that can induce AE expression. The AE expression blocked the cell cycle and inhibited cell differentiation. The gene sets related to the inflammatory reactions was significantly enriched in U937-AE cells that express AE, and fatty acid metabolism was disordered.

[Clinical and ultrasonic characteristics of male gout patients with normal serum uric acid]

The clinical data and joint ultrasound characteristics of 140 male patients aged from 18 to 70 years who were diagnosed with acute gout from June 2017 to June 2021 in Department of Rheumatology and Immunology of the Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University were selected for the retrospective analysis. According to the serum uric acid levels, the patients were divided into normal uric acid group (sUA≤420 μmol/L, 38 cases) and hyperuric acid group (sUA>420 μmol/L, 102 cases).The results suggested that the lower limb joints were the most affected in gout patients. The deposition of MSU crystal were still found in male gout patients with normal serum uric acid, and the standard urate-lowering therapy should also be carried out. Ultrasound can be used as an important supplementary tool for the diagnosis of gout. Group with high level serum uric acid may be more serious.

[Analysis of prognostic factors of pediatric kidney transplantation]

Objective: To evaluate the short-and mid-term efficacy of pediatric kidney transplantation and the risk factors for kidney graft and recipient. Methods: The baseline data and postoperative complications of pediatric donors and recipients of 284 kidney transplants were retrospectively analyzed in the Department of Kidney Transplantation in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from August 2010 to May 2021 and all subjects were followed up until December 31, 2021. According to the survival status of donors and recipients, they were divided into the graft-loss group and the graft-survival group, and the recipient death group and survival group, respectively. Univariate comparison between groups was performed by Log-rank test, and Cox proportional risk model was used to explore the independent risk factors for the graft and recipient survival. Results: Among the 284 children recipients, 184 cases (64.8%) were male and 100 cases(35.2%) were female, and 19 cases (6.7%) were living relative donor renal transplantation, 19 cases (6.7%) were preemptive transplantation, and 8 cases were secondary transplantation. The age of 284 recipients at the time of transplantation was 13.0 (9.0, 15.0) years, among whom 29 cases aged 0-6 years, 96 cases aged 7-11 years old, and 159 cases aged 12-18 years. The 1, 3, and 5 year survival rates were 92.3%, 88.9% and 84.8% for the kidney grafts, and were 97.1%, 95.6% and 94.4% for the recipients, respectively. Multivariate analysis showed postoperative acute rejection (HR=3.14, 95%CI 1.38-7.15, P=0.006) and perioperative vascular complications (HR=4.73, 95%CI 2.03-11.06, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for the survival of kidney graft. Postoperative infection (HR=14.23, 95%CI 3.45-58.72, P<0.001) was an independent risk factor for the postoperative mortality of recipients. Conclusions: Pediatric kidney transplantation shows a good short-and mid-term prognosis. Postoperative acute rejection and perioperative vascular complications are the risk factors for the survival of kidney graft, and postoperative infection is the risk factor affecting the survival of recipient.

[Development of a risk assessment scale and test of its validity and reliability for venous thromboembolism in adult burn patients]

Objective: To develop a venous thromboembolism (VTE) risk assessment scale for adult burn patients and to test its reliability and validity. Methods: The scale research method and multi-center cross-sectional survey method were used. Based on the results of literature analysis method and brain-storming method, the letter questionnaire for experts was formulated. Then 27 experts (9 doctors of burn department, 9 vascular surgeons, and 9 nurses) were performed with two rounds of correspondences by Delphi method, and the reliability of the experts was analyzed. The weight of each item was determined by optimal sequence diagram method and expert importance evaluation to form the VTE Risk Assessment Scale for Adult Burn Patients. A total of 223 adult burn inpatients, who were admitted to 5 tier Ⅲ grade A general hospitals including the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University, West China Hospital of Sichuan University, the Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College, Nanchong Central Hospital, and the Second People's Hospital of Yibin City from October 1st 2019 to January 1st 2020, were selected as respondents by convenience sampling method. The first assessment was performed with the VTE Risk Assessment Scale for Adult Burn Patients within 24 hours of admission of patients, and real-time assessment was performed as the patients' condition and treatment changed. The highest value was taken as the result. Correlation coefficient method and critical ratio method were used for item analysis; Cronbach's α coefficient was used to test the internal consistency of scale; content validity index was used to analyze the content validity of the scale, and receiver's operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to test the predictive validity of the scale. Data were statistically analyzed with chi-square test, Pearson correlation analysis, independent sample t test, and Z test. Results: As four questionnaires in the first round of correspondence were rejected as unqualified, and another 4 experts were selected for the 2 rounds of correspondence. Most of them were aged 41 to 50 years with postgraduate degrees, engaging in the current profession for 11 to 30 years, and all of them had professional titles of associate senior or above. The scale, constructed through literature analysis, group brainstorming, and two rounds of correspondence, includes 3 primary items and 50 secondary items. In the first round of correspondence, the recovery rate of valid questionnaires and the ratio with expert opinions were 85.2% (23/27) and 47.8% (11/23), respectively. In the second round of correspondence, the recovery rate of valid questionnaires and the ratio with expert opinions were 100% (27/27) and 11.1% (3/27), respectively. The average collective authority coefficients of experts were both 0.90 in the 2 rounds of correspondence. The mean values of importance assignment, full score rate, and selection rate above 4 were 4.21, 52.5%, and 77.2%, respectively, in the first round of correspondence, and 4.28, 45.2%, and 85.8%, respectively, in the second round of correspondence. The mean coefficients of variation and the mean value of Kendall's coefficient of harmony for each item were 0.21 and 0.30 in the first round of correspondence, respectively, and 0.16 and 0.36 in the second round of correspondence, respectively. In the first and second rounds of correspondence, the Kendall's coefficients of harmony of 3 primary items (age and underlying diseases, burn injury factors, and burn treatment factors) and total secondary items were statistically significant (with χ2 values of 121.46, 107.09, 116.00, 331.97, 169.97, 152.12, 141.54, and 471.70, P<0.01). The weights of primary items for age and underlying diseases, burn injury factors, and burn treatment factors were 0.04, 0.05, and 0.07, respectively. The weights of secondary items ranged from 0.71 to 0.99, with assigned values of 3 to 6. The total burn area of 223 patients ranged from 1% to 89% total body surface area, and the patients were aged from 19 to 96 years, with the risk assessment score from 0 to 98. Nine patients developed VTE, with a risk assessment score of 41 to 90. The scores of 37 items were significantly positively correlated with the total score of scale (with r values of 0.14 to 0.61, P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the items were retained. There were 36 secondary items with statistically significant differences between the patients in high-score group and low-score group (with Z values of -4.88 to -2.09, t values of -11.63 to -2.09, P<0.05 or P<0.01), and the items were retained. The total Cronbach's α coefficient of scale was 0.88. The total content validity index of scale was 0.95. The optimal threshold of the scale for the diagnosis of VTE was 40, at which the sensitivity was 88.9%, the specificity was 87.4%, the Youden index was 0.87, and the area under the ROC curve was 0.96 (with 95% confidence interval of 0.93 to 0.99, P<0.01). Conclusions: The age and underlying diseases, burn injury factors, and burn treatment factors are the risk factors for VTE in adult burn patients. The VTE risk assessment scale for adult burn patients developed based on these factors has good reliability and validity, and provide good reference value for clinical VTE risk assessment.

Objective: To retrospectively analyze the data of Chinese patients with newly diagnosed acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) to preliminarily discuss the clinical and cytogenetic characteristics. Methods: From February 2004 to June 2020, patients with newly diagnosed APL aged ≥ 15 years who were admitted to the Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Science & Peking Union Medical College were chosen. Clinical and laboratory features were retrospectively analyzed. Results: A total of 790 cases were included, with a male to female ratio of 1.22. The median age of the patients was 41 (15-76) years. Patients aged between 20 and 59 predominated, with 632 patients (80%) of 790 patients classified as low and intermediate risk and 158 patients (20%) of 790 patients classified as high risk. The white blood cell, platelet, and hemoglobin levels at diagnosis were 2.3 (0.1-176.1) ×10(9)/L, 29.5 (2.0-1220.8) ×10(9)/L, and 89 (15-169) g/L, respectively, and 4.8% of patients were complicated with psoriasis. The long-form type of PML-RARα was most commonly seen in APL, accounting for 58%. Both APTT extension (10.3%) and creatinine>14 mg/L (1%) are rarely seen in patients at diagnosis. Cytogenetics was performed in 715 patients with newly diagnosed APL. t (15;17) with additional chromosomal abnormalities were found in 155 patients, accounting for 21.7%; among which, +8 was most frequently seen. A complex karyotype was found in 64 (9.0%) patients. Next-generation sequencing was performed in 178 patients, and 113 mutated genes were discovered; 75 genes had an incidence rate>1%. FLT3 was the most frequently seen, which accounted for 44.9%, and 20.8% of the 178 patients present with FLT3-ITD. Conclusions: Patients aged 20-59 years are the most common group with newly diagnosed APL. No obvious difference was found in the ratio of males to females. In terms of risk stratification, patients divided into low and intermediate risk predominate. t (15;17) with additional chromosomal abnormalities accounted for 21% of 715 patients, in which +8 was most commonly seen. The long-form subtype was most frequently seen in PML-RARα-positive patients, and FLT3 was most commonly seen in the mutation spectrum of APL.

[The incidence of myopia and myopic progression from 2019 to 2020 in school-age children in Zhuozhou]

Objective: To analyze the changes in refractive status and prevalence of myopia in 6-to 14-year-old children at 2 time points in Zhuozhou, Hebei Province. Methods: In the current cohort study, the visual acuity and refractive status of primary and secondary school students aged 6 to 14 years were examined from June to August 2019 and reexamined from June to August 2020. A total of 30 412 subjects with examination data were enrolled, including 15 861 males (52.2%) and 14 551 females (47.8%), with an average age of (10.0±2.7) years. The participants underwent autorefraction without cycloplegia and a naked eye visual acuity test with a standard logarithmic visual acuity chart. Myopia was screened by the standard of equivalent spherical refraction less than -0.75 diopter (D). The categorical data were analyzed by the Chi-square or Fisher's exact test. Clopper-Pearson was used to estimate the 95% confidence intervals for the incidence of myopia. Results: After the 1-year interval, the change of equivalent spherical refraction was(-0.67±1.11) D and(-0.76±1.11) D, respectively, in male and female participants, and their visual acuity decreased by 0.11±0.19 and 0.12±0.21, respectively. There were significant inter-group differences in the annual change of spherical power in different age groups (χ²=276.23, P<0.001). The naked eye visual acuity reduction was greatest in the 10-year-old students. The incidence of myopia was 42.2% (95% confidence intervals of 41.47% to 42.93%) during the 1-year follow-up period. The incidence of myopia was highest at the age of 14 (52.0% in males and 54.2% in females) and lowest at the age of 6 (31.0% in males and 33.1% in females). Conclusions: The 1-year follow-up revealed an obvious myopic shift in the refractive status of school students in Zhuozhou, with their naked eye visual acuity decreased. The incidence of myopia was higher in females than that in males.

[Incidence of leptospirosis in Fujian province, 2015-2020]

Objective: To analyze the incidence of leptospirosis in Fujian province from 2015 to 2020 and provide the scientific evidences for the risk assessment, prevention and control of leptospirosis. Methods: The incidence data of leptospirosis in Fujian during 2015-2020 were collected from China Information System for Disease Control and Prevention for a descriptive analysis, and software ArcGIS 10.3.1 was used for spatial autocorrelation analysis, and rats were captured in 17 surveillance areas during the same period, and the rat organs were collected for pathogen culture, the level of Leptospira antibody was detected in serum samples of rats, healthy population and the serum samples of patients sent by the hospitals. The infection status of Leptospira in human and rats were analyzed. Results: The incidence of leptospirosis in Fujian showed a downward trend from 2015 to 2020. A total of 176 cases of leptospirosis were reported. There were obvious seasonality and bimodal distribution. The majority of cases were farmers, accounting for 49.43% (87/176). Most cases were aged 30-69 years (85.80%, 151/176). The male to female ratio of the cases was 3.51∶1 (137∶39). Spatial autocorrelation analysis showed that leptospirosis had high or low clustering areas. From 2015 to 2020, the average capture rate of rats in 17 surveillance areas was 6.96% (1 519/21 838), Rattus losea, Rattus flavipectus and Niviventer fulvescens were the main species. The average positive rate of Leptospira antibody in rats was 28.64% (252/880). Java and Autumnalis were the predominant serogroups, accounting for 56.75% (143/252) and 17.46% (44/252), respectively. The average positive rate of Leptospira antibody in healthy population was 16.13% (254/1 575), and Autumnalis and Australis were the predominant serogroups, accounting for 71.65% (182/254). The confirmation rate of leptospirosis in patient serum samples sent by the hospitals was 2.23% (188/8 431), Autumnalis (56.38%, 106/188) and Hebdomadis (19.68%, 37/188) were the major serogroups. Conclusions: The incidence of leptospirosis in Fujian showed a downward trend from 2015 to 2020, there were obvious area clustering and seasonality. The high clustering areas were mainly distributed in northern, western and central Fujian. Java and Autumnalis were the predominant serogroups in rats. The infection rate in healthy population decreased year by year. Autumnalis and Hebdomadis were the main serogroups in population in Fujian.

This article introduces the high risk factors, pathogen spectrum and laboratory indicators that cause CNS fungal infection. As patients with CNS fungal infections are often accompanied by immunodeficiency, it is especially necessary for clinical early detection, early prevention, and early diagnosis, and timely and effective implementation of optimized diagnosis and treatment programs to prevent further deterioration of the disease.

[Effect of splenectomy on the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma development among patients with liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension: a multi-institutional cohort study]

Objective: To identify whether splenectomy for treatment of hypersplenism has any impact on development of hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) among patients with liver cirrhosis and hepatitis. Methods: Patients who underwent splenectomy for hypersplenism secondary to liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension between January 2008 and December 2012 were included from seven hospitals in China, whereas patients receiving medication treatments for liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension (non-splenectomy) at the same time period among the seven hospitals were included as control groups. In the splenectomy group, all the patients received open or laparoscopic splenectomy with or without pericardial devascularization. In contrast, patients in the control group were treated conservatively for liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension with medicines (non-splenectomy) with no invasive treatments, such as transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt, splenectomy or liver transplantation before HCC development. All the patients were routinely screened for HCC development with abdominal ultrasound, liver function and alpha-fetoprotein every 3 to 6 months. To minimize the selection bias, propensity score matching (PSM) was used to match the baseline data of patients among splenectomy versus non-splenectomy groups. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to calculate the overall survival and cumulative incidence of HCC development, and the Log-rank test was used to compare the survival or disease rates between the two groups. Univariate and Cox proportional hazard regression models were used to analyze the potential risk factors associated with development of HCC. Results: A total of 871 patients with liver cirrhosis and hypertension were included synchronously from 7 tertiary hospitals. Among them, 407 patients had a history of splenectomy for hypersplenism (splenectomy group), whereas 464 patients who received medical treatment but not splenectomy (non-splenectomy group). After PSM,233 pairs of patients were matched in adjusted cohorts. The cumulative incidence of HCC diagnosis at 1,3,5 and 7 years were 1%,6%,7% and 15% in the splenectomy group, which was significantly lower than 1%,6%,15% and 23% in the non-splenectomy group (HR=0.53,95%CI:0.31 to 0.91,P=0.028). On multivariable analysis, splenectomy was independently associated with decreased risk of HCC development (HR=0.55,95%CI:0.32 to 0.95,P=0.031). The cumulative survival rates of all the patients at 1,3,5,and 7 years were 100%,97%,91%,86% in the splenectomy group,which was similar with that of 100%,97%,92%,84% in the non-splenectomy group (P=0.899). In total,49 patients (12.0%) among splenectomy group and 75 patients (16.2%) in non-splenectomy group developed HCC during the study period, respectively. Compared to patients in non-splenectomy group, patients who developed HCC after splenectomy were unlikely to receive curative resection for HCC (12.2% vs. 33.3%,χ²=7.029, P=0.008). Conclusion: Splenectomy for treatment of hypersplenism may decrease the risk of HCC development among patients with liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension.

[Research progress on non-steady state noise-induced hearing loss]

Non-steady state noise has become the main type of workplace noise. Compared with steady state noise, non-steady state noise may cause more serious hearing loss. This paper reviews the new situation of occupational hearing loss caused by non-steady state noise exposure, the overview of international noise exposure assessment standards and new challenges, and the new evidence of non-steady state noise induced hearing loss, so as to provide the basis for the future research of non-steady state noise induced hearing loss.

MicroRNA-20a suppresses RANKL-modulated osteoclastogenesis and prevents bone erosion in mice with rheumatoid arthritis through the TLR4/p38 pathway

Abnormal osteoclast formation plays a significant part in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). As potent therapeutic biomarkers, microRNAs (miRNAs) have obtained increasing attention. Recently, treatment regimens regarding miRNAs have been implicated in skeletal diseases. The aim of this study is to assess the expression and function of miR-20a during osteoclast proliferation and differentiation and its correlation with bone erosion in RA mice. The expression of miR-20a was observed to be diminished in the ankle tissues of RA mice relative to that in normal controls evaluated by RT-qPCR. Hematoxylin and eosin staining, Safranin O-fast green staining, and tartrateresistant acid phosphatase staining were used to evaluate the effects of miR-20a on RA symptoms. The proliferation and differentiation of osteoclasts, and bone erosion were repressed by agomiR-20a injection. 3'UTR luciferase reporter assays were conducted to validate the putative binding between miR-20a and receptor activation of nuclear factor-κB ligand (RANKL). The protein expression and phosphorylation level of toll-like receptor4 (TLR4)/p38 pathway-related factors were detected by Western blot. miR-20a inhibited proliferation and differentiation potentials to osteoclasts partly through the TLR4/p38 pathway. The current work provides evidence that miR-20a hinders proliferation and differentiation of osteoclasts by targeting RANKL through the TLR4/p38 pathway.

[Venetoclax with low-dose cytarabine for patients with untreated acute myeloid leukemia ineligible for intensive chemotherapy: results from the Chinese cohort of a phase three randomized placebo-controlled trial]

Objective: To investigate the safety and efficacy of venetoclax with low-dose cytarabine (LDAC) in Chinese patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) who are unable to tolerate intensive induction chemotherapy. Methods: Adults ≥ 18 years with newly diagnosed AML who were ineligible for intensive chemotherapy were enrolled in this international, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Globally, patients (n=211) were randomized 2∶1 to either venetoclax with LDAC or placebo with LDAC in 28-d cycles, with LDAC on days 1-10. The primary endpoint was OS; the secondary endpoints included response rates, event-free survival, and adverse events. Results: A total of 15 Chinese patients were enrolled (venetoclax arm, n=9; placebo arm, n=6) . The median age was 72 years (range, 61-86) . For the primary analysis, the venetoclax arm provided a 38% reduction in death risk compared with the placebo[hazard ratio (HR) , 0.62 (95%CI 0.12-3.07) ]. An unplanned analysis with an additional 6 months of follow-up demonstrated a median OS of 9.0 months for venetoclax compared with 4.1 months for placebo. The complete remission (CR) rates with CR with incomplete blood count recovery (CRi) were 3/9 (33%) and 0/6 (0%) , respectively. The most common non-hematologic adverse effects (venetoclax vs placebo) were hypokalemia[5/9 (56%) vs 4/6 (67%) ], vomiting[4/9 (44%) vs 3/6 (50%) ], constipation[2/9 (22%) vs 4/6 (67%) ], and hypoalbuminemia[1/9 (11%) vs 4/6 (67%) ]. Conclusion: Venetoclax with LDAC demonstrated meaningful efficacy and a manageable safety profile in Chinese patients consistent with the observations from the global VIALE-C population, making it an important treatment option for patients with newly diagnosed AML who are otherwise ineligible for intensive chemotherapy.

[Clinical value of emergency endovascular embolization in the interventional treatment for oral hemorrhage caused by carcinoma]

To evaluate the clinical value of emergency endovascular embolization in the interventional treatment for oral hemorrhage caused by carcinoma, 32 patients with oral hemorrhage caused by carcinoma, who received emergency endovascular embolization due to unsatisfactory hemostatic effect of conventional conservative treatment in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2014 to December 2019, were included in this study and their clinical data, laboratory data and imaging information were retrospectively analyzed. There were 16 males and 16 females, aged (60.6±13.6) years (34-88 years). Technical successful rate of emergency endovascular embolization, immediate successful rate of controlling hemorrhage, blood pressure before and after operation, hemoglobin before and after operation, postoperative complications and recurrence rate of oral hemorrhage were statistically analyzed. Results showed that technical successful rate of operation and immediate successful rate of controlling oral hemorrhage are both 100% (32/32). Recurrent oral hemorrhage occurred in 4 patients (13%). The hemorrhagic shock symptoms of all patients were significantly improved after interventional therapy. After operation, local swelling happened in 34% (11/32) patients and intermittent local pain happened in 22% (7/32) within 24 hours; the swelling and the pain gradually disappeared from 2nd to 5th days. Mild complications of transient fever happened in 9% (3/32) patients and disappeared spontaneously in the short term. No serious complications such as blindness, cerebrovascular accident or central nervous system disturbance occurred in all patients after operations. During the whole follow-up period (1 to 12 months), a total of 8 patients died. The causes of death were progression and metastasis of carcinoma (n=4), heart failure (n=2), severe pneumonia (n=1) and respiratory failure caused by recurrent oral hemorrhage (n=1). Owing to the remarkable short-term curative effect, repeatable operation, low recurrence rate of oral hemorrhage and low incidence of complications, emergency endovascular embolization can be used in the clinical therapy and application of oral hemorrhage caused by carcinoma.

[The effect of different diagnostic standards on the diagnosis of suspected occupational noise-induced deafness]

Objective: To explore the effect of different diagnostic criteria on occupational noise-induced deafness (Onid) , and to provide theoretical basis for the revision of ONID diagnostic criteria. Methods: From January 2016 to January 2018, the physical examination results of noise-exposed workers during occupational health examination in Qingyuan Occupational Disease Prevention and Treatment Hospital were retrospectively investigated in September 2019, with Gbz 49-2014《diagnosis of occupational noise deafness》as the study object, 471 workers suspected of Onid were weighted with different combinations of high frequency hearing threshold, and the better ear weight was calculated, compared with the diagnostic criteria of 2007 and 2014, the degree of hearing loss was evaluated. SPSS 22.0 was used for statistical analysis, χ(2) test was used for counting data, and non-parametric test was used for measuring bias data. Results: The average age of 471 subjects was (40.32±7.01) years, and the average age of exposure to noise was (7.11±3.44) years. On the basis of the 2007 edition diagnostic standard, the suspected ONID diagnostic rate of different high frequency auditory threshold was increased by 16.35% and 30.15% at 3.0 kHz, 6.0 kHz increased by 20.17%, 3.0 kHz+4.0 kHz increased by 22.29%, 3.0 kHz+6.0 kHz increased by 17.20%, 4.0 kHz+6.0 kHz increased by 25.27%, the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05) , the frequency of 3.0 kHz+4.0 kHz+6.0 kHz increased by 22.29%. Using the 2014 edition diagnostic standard, the diagnostic rate of Onid was reduced by 30.15% and 13.80%, 6 kHz is 9.98% lower, 3.0 kHz+4.0 kHz is 7.86% lower, 3.0 kHz+6.0 kHz is 12.95% lower, 4.0 kHz+6.0 is 4.88% lower, the high frequency of 3.0 kHz+4.0 kHz+6.0 kHz decreased by 7.86%, the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05) . Conclusion: The diagnosis rate of suspected Onid is increased by weighting different high frequency hearing threshold, in which the weighted 4kHz high frequency has the greatest influence on the result, and the weighted 3 kHz high frequency has the least.

[Preparation of a novel tri-specific T cell engager targeting CD19 antigen and its anti-leukemia effect exploration]

Objective: To prepare a novel tri-specific T cell engager (19TriTE) targeting CD19 antigen, and to investigate its immunotherapeutic effect on CD19-positive hematological malignancies. Methods: 19TriTE was constructed by molecular cloning technology and successfully expressed through the eukaryotic expressing system. The effects of 19TriTE on the proliferation and activation of T cells, as well as the specific cytotoxicity against CD19 positive tumor cell lines were verified. Results: ①19TriTE expressing plasmid was constructed and successfully expressed through the eukaryotic expressing system. ②19TriTE can specifically bind to T cells and Nalm6 cells, with equilibrium dissociation constants of 19.21 nmol/L and 11.67 nmol/L, respectively. ③The expression rates of CD69 positive T cells and CD25 positive T cells were 35.4% and 49.8% respectively, when 2 nmol/L 19TriTE were added in the co-culture system, which were significantly higher than those in the control group. ④19TriTE can significantly promote the proliferation of T cells. The absolute count of T cells expanded from the initial one million to 74 million with an 74 fold increase at the concentration of 1 nmol/L on day 12. ⑤19TriTE can significantly mediate T cells killing of CD19 positive target cells in a dose-dependent manner. At the concentration of 10 nmol/L, the target cells lysis reached 50%. ⑥Degranulation experiment verified that 19TriTE can activate T cells in the presence of CD19 positive target cells, and the activation of T cells positively correlated with the dose of 19TriTE. ⑦When 19TriTE fusion protein co-cultured with T cells and target cells overexpression RFP and luciferase genes respectively, 19TriTE can notably mediate T cells killing of CD19 positive target cells through fluorescent microscope or bioluminescence imaging technology. Conclusion: In this study, we successfully constructed and expressed 19TriTE fusion protein and verified that it can effectively activate T cells and promote their proliferation in vitro. At the same time, it can bind to CD19 positive target cells and T cells, as well as enhance T cells anti-leukemia effect in vitro, providing the foundation for further clinical research.

Tumor Cell-Derived Exosomal Circ-0072088 Suppresses Migration and Invasion of Hepatic Carcinoma Cells Through Regulating MMP-16

Background: Tumor-derived exosomes (EXOs), commonly differentially expressed in circular RNAs, have been shown to be crucial determinants of tumor progression and may regulate the development and metastasis of hepatic carcinoma (HCC). Methods: Possibly differentially expressed circRNAs in patients with HCC were screened out from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). EXOs were isolated from the culture medium of HCC cells and plasma of patients with HCC, followed by characterization by transmission electron microscope, NanHCCight, and western blotting. Additionally, RNA immunoprecipitation and luciferase reporter gene assays were carried out to explore the molecular mechanism of hsa_circRNA_103809 (circ-0072088) in HCC cells. Results: The screening results showed that circ-0072088 was highly expressed in patients with HCC, and its increase indicated unfavorable prognosis of patients according to quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Additionally, circ-0072088 was mainly secreted by HCC cells via EXOs in plasma of such patients, and its high level in plasma EXOs was closely associated with tumor node metastasis (TNM) staging and tumor size. Moreover, HCC-secreted EXOs mediated the degradation of miR-375 via circ-0072088 and upregulated MMP-16, thus suppressing the metastasis of HCC. Conclusion: Upregulated in patients with HCC, circ-0072088 may be an index for diagnosis and prognosis of HCC. In addition, HCC-derived EXOs coated with circ-0072088 might be a treatment for HCC, with the ability to inhibit the metastasis of HCC cells.

MiR-20a Promotes kidney injury in sepsis rats through autophagy

The aim of this work was to study the effects of micro ribonucleic acid (miR)-20a on acute kidney injury (AKI) in sepsis rats and its key molecular mechanism. Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into healthy rat group (H group, n=3), sham group (S group, n=3), sepsis rat group (D group, n=3), sepsis rat + negative control transfection group (N group, n=3) and sepsis rat + miR-20a inhibitor transfection group (M group, n=3). At 6 h, 12 h and 24 h, serum creatinine (Scr) and blood urea nitrogen (BUN) were detected, the changes in miR-20a expression in kidney tissues were determined via reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), the expression of autophagy marker protein microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3) was measured via Western blotting, and the inflammatory cell infiltration in kidney tissues was detected using hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. There was no obvious change in each index in S group compared with H group. D group, N group and M group had higher levels of Scr, BUN and LC3 in kidney tissues than S group. The levels of Scr, BUN and LC3 in kidney tissues were lower in M group than those in N group. MiR-20a may cause AKI in sepsis rats via activating autophagy.

[CD19 antigen loss after treatment of Bispecific T-cell Engager and effective response to salvage bispecific CAR-T therapy in B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia: a case report and literature review]

Objective: To analyze the influence of CD19 isoforms to the efficacy of CD19/CD3 Bispecific T-cell Engager (BiTE) antibody, and explore the resistance mechanism of BiTE immunotherapy. Methods: Semi-quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of CD19 mRNA isoforms before and after BiTE treatment in a patient with CD19(+) B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) . CD19 isoforms were analyzed by Sanger sequencing. Flow cytometry and transcriptome sequencing were performed to analyze the expression of cell lineage specific molecules before and after BiTE treatment. Results: The expression of CD19 isoform with exon 2 deletion was identified at diagnosis. After relapsed and treatment of BiTE antibody, the patient did not achieve remission and CD19 antigen on leukemic cells turned negative detected by flow cytometry after BiTE treatment. However the expression ratio of CD19 isoform with exon 2 deletion was not increased. Flow cytometry phenotype and transcriptome sequencing confirmed that no linage switching developed, which suggested the expression of CD19 isoform caused by exon alternative splicing and lineage switching was not related to CD19 epitope loss in this patient. This patient achieved complete remission by sequential administration of self-developed CD22 CAR-T and CD19 CAR-T after disease progression. Conclusion: Targeting or combining an alternative antigen specific CAR-T may be a promising treatment option after losing CD19 expression in relapsed ALL.

[Clinical and laboratory characteristics in patients with myeloid neoplasms complicated with clonal T large granular lymphocyte proliferation]

Objective: To analyze the clinical manifestations and laboratory features in patients with myeloid neoplasms complicated with clonal T large granular lymphocyte (T-LGL) proliferation. Methods: The clinical data of 5 patients with myeloid neoplasms complicated with clonal T-LGL proliferation from November 2017 to November 2018 in Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College were analyzed retrospectively. Results: The median age was 60 years old. All patients had a history of abnormal peripheral blood cell counts for over 6 months. The absolute lymphocyte count in peripheral blood was less than 1.0×10(9)/L. In addition to the typical T-LGL phenotype, the immunophenotype was heterogenous including CD4(+)CD8(-) in 2 patients, the other 3 CD4(-)CD8(+). Four patients were αβ type T cells, the other one was γδ type. STAT3 mutation was detected in 1 patient by next-generation sequencing, the other 4 cases were negative. Conclusions: Clonal T-LGL proliferation with myeloid neoplasm develops in an indolent manner, mainly in elderly patients. Hemocytopenia is the most common manifestation. The diagnosis of T-LGL proliferation does not have specific criteria, that it should be differentiated from other T cell proliferative disorders, such as T-cell clones of undetermined significance. STAT3 or STAT5b mutation may help distinguish.

[Construction of a new anti-CD123 chimeric antigen receptor T cells and effect of anti-acute myeloid leukemia]

目的

构建一种新的靶向CD123的嵌合抗原受体T细胞(CAR-T细胞)，为CD123阳性白血病的免疫治疗提供实验参考。

方法

通过单克隆筛选技术获得能稳定分泌CD123抗体的杂交瘤细胞株6E11，将杂交瘤细胞扩增后腹腔注射至Balb/c小鼠腹腔内，收集腹水并处理、纯化得到单克隆抗体，测定抗体效价并对其特异性进行验证；RT-PCR法获得轻链和重链可变区序列，并以此为基础利用分子克隆技术构建一种新的靶向CD123嵌合抗原受体，包装病毒后感染T细胞制备CD123CAR-T细胞，通过功能实验初步探讨6E11CAR-T细胞体外抗白血病的能力。

结果

Thoracic de-kyphosis for revision surgery of a failure case of endoscopic discectomy: a case report and literature review

BACKGROUND

Indications and clinical outcomes of percutaneous endoscopic thoracic discectomy(PETD) in treating thoracic disc herniation is rarely reported and still controversial. We reported an unsatisfied recovery of thoracic disc herniation with PETD, treated by a second posterior thoracic laminectomy and Ponte osteotomy.

CASE DESCRIPTION

A male presented with lower extremity weakness and stagger caused by T3/4 intervertebral disc herniation. The upper thoracic curve was in excessive kyphosis with T2-5 Cobb angle of 34.3 degrees. The preoperative ODI score was 34 and Roelzs's JOA score was 14. Percutaneous transforaminal endoscopic thoracic discectomy (PETD) from a posterior lateral approach was performed. At five-month follow-up, his thoracic back pain and staggering gait did not improve. The postoperative T2-5 Cobb angle was 32.1 degrees, the ODI score was 24 and Roelzs's JOA score was 14. A second posterior thoracic decompression this time with fixation was performed, but no disc herniation was detected. A Ponte osteotomy was performed to correct the kyphosis. One month after the second surgery, muscle strength of the lower limbs was improving with the T2-5 Cobb angle decreased to 19.4 degrees, the ODI score decreased to 10 and Roelzs's JOA score increase to 16. Six month later, the ODI score decreased to 0 and Roelzs's JOA score improved to 18. In review of the literature, PETD doesn't guarantee the patient a satisfactory neurological recovery for kyphotic thoracic disc herniation. Posterior decompression with Ponte osteotomy may be beneficial to release the tension and decompression of the spinal cord tension.

CONCLUSIONS

Thoracic disc herniation with kyphosis angle >20 degrees (T2-5), percutaneous endoscopic thoracic discectomy is not likely to get good neurologic results. Posterior laminectomy with ponte osteotomy might be beneficial for these patients to induce dorsal drifting of the spinal cord from anterior herniation.

[Therapy-related myeloid neoplasms after successful treatment for acute promyelocytic leukemia: a report of four cases and literature review]

目的

探讨急性早幼粒细胞白血病（APL）患者继发治疗相关性髓系肿瘤（t-MN）的临床特点、诊断、治疗及预后。

方法

回顾性分析中国医学科学院血液病医院2012年10月至2019年1月收治的4例APL继发t-MN患者的临床资料，并进行相关文献复习。

结果

4例APL继发t-MN患者均为女性，中位年龄42（40~53）岁，3例接受了以维甲酸（ATRA）+亚砷酸（ATO）为基础联合蒽环/蒽醌类药物±阿糖胞苷的前期诱导缓解及巩固治疗方案，1例采用了ATRA联合蒽环/蒽醌类药物±阿糖胞苷的治疗方案，均没有使用烷化剂。在APL获得完全缓解（CR）后40~43个月出现t-MN，其中治疗相关性骨髓增生异常综合征（t-MDS）1例，治疗相关性急性髓系白血病（t-AML）3例，出现t-MN时PML-RARα融合基因均为阴性。3例t-AML患者接受了2~4个疗程再诱导治疗，其中有1例t-AML患者在获得CR后行异基因造血干细胞移植（allo-HSCT），1例t-MDS患者接受了去甲基化治疗。中位随访54.5（48~62）个月，2例t-AML患者死亡，出现t-MN后中位生存期为12（5~18）个月。1989至2018年文献共报道63例APL继发t-MN病例，与本次报道的4例汇总分析，67例患者中男27例，女40例；中位年龄为52.5（15~76）岁；中位潜伏期39（12~168）个月，确诊t-MN后中位生存时间为10（1~39）个月。

结论

APL继发t-MN较为少见，目前缺乏有效的防治措施，预后不佳，在随访过程中（尤其是获得CR后39个月左右）若出现病情变化，应警惕t-MN的发生，对此类患者应尽快明确疾病的变化，给予合理的治疗。

[Long-term efficacy analysis of laparoscopic-assisted anorectoplasty for high and middle imperforate anus]

Objective: To explore the long-term efficacy of laparoscopic-assisted anorectoplasty and conventional anorectoplasty in the treatment of children with high and middle anal atresia. Methods: A retrospective cohort study was used. Inclusion criteria: (1) children with high and middle anal atresia; (2) complicated with rectourethral or rectovesical fistula; (3) complete follow-up data. Exclusion criteria: (1) complicated with 21-trisomy; (2) cerebral palsy and other mentaldisabilities; (3) Currarino syndrome; (4) FG syndrome. Clinical data of 88 patients with middle and high anal atresia, who complicated with rectourethral fistula or rectovesical fistula, and underwent anoplasty at Department of Pediatric Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2009 to June 2014 were enrolled in the study and analyzed. There were 24 cases with middle atresia and 64 cases with high atresia. All the cases were divided into 2 groups based on the operative method: laparoscopic group (laparoscopic-assisted anorectoplasty, 49 cases), pena group (posterior sagittal anorectoplasty, 39 cases). The demographic features of two groups were comparable. There were no statistically significant differences in gender, age, body mass, classification of anomaly types and sacral ratio (all P>0.05). Student t test and Chi square tests were used to compare the surgical conditions (operative time, postoperative hospital stay and complications), anal function (Kelly score), constipation (Krickenbeck constipation score) and anorectal pressure. Results: Children of both groups all completed operation ssuccessfully. There were no statistically significant differences between laparoscopic group and pena group in the operative time [(120±31) minutes vs. (112±23) minutes, t=1.343, P=0.091] and postoperative hospital stay [(7.1±2.3) days vs. (10.7±3.3) days, t=6.021, P=1.000]. Complications were more common in the pena group [16.3% (8/49) vs. 35.9% (14/39), χ(2)=4.436, P=0.035]. The main complications in laparoscopic group were anal prolapse (8.2%, 4/49) and anal stenosis (6.2%, 3/49), while in pena group were anal stenosis (12.8%, 5/39) and perioperative perianal skin erosion (10.3%, 4/39). As for the anal function, the degree of feces, defecation control and sphincter contractility, the single scoring differences of Kelly scoring system were not statistically significant between the two groups, but the proportion of good function in the laparoscopic group was higher than that in the pena group [67.3% (8/49) vs. 38.5% (15/39), χ(2)=7.308, P=0.007]. Constipation occurred in 6 (12.2%) patients in the laparoscopic group, of whom 5 were improved by diet regulation and 1 required laxatives, while 9 (23.1%) patients developed constipation in the pena group, of whom 4 were improved by diet regulation and 5 required long-term laxatives. The difference of constipation ratio was not statistically significant (χ(2)=1.802, P=0.180). There were no cases of Krickenbeck constipation grade 3. Compared to the pena group, the laparoscopic group had higher anal resting pressure [(33.35±9.69) mmHg vs. (27.68±10.74) mmHg, t=2.599, P=0.011], higher dilating pressure [(9.00±5.61) mmHg vs.(6.51±3.24) mmHg, t=2.462, P=0.016], higher maximal squeeze pressure [(65.80±17.23) mmHg vs. (56.74±18.93) mmHg, t=2.389, P=0.019] and longer maximal contraction time [(21.16±5.02) seconds vs. (18.44±7.24) seconds, t=2.079, P=0.041]. The rectal resting pressure [(5.36±3.00) mmHg vs. (4.61±3.93) mmHg, t=1.015, P=0.312] was not statistically significantly different. Conclusions: Compared with posterior sagittal anorectoplasty, laparoscopic-assisted anorectoplasty in the treatment of high and middle anal atresia has better long-term efficacy with less perioperative complications.

[A single-center, randomized controlled trial of PEG-rhG-CSF and common rhG-CSF to promote neutrophil recovery after induction chemotherapy in newly diagnosed acute myeloid leukemia]

目的

比较初诊急性髓系白血病（AML）患者诱导化疗后骨髓抑制期应用聚乙二醇化重组人G-CSF（PEG-rhG-CSF）与普通重组人G-CSF（rhG-CSF）促进中性粒细胞或白细胞恢复的时间。同时比较两种药物对患者感染发生率、住院时间的影响。

方法

采用前瞻性随机对照研究方法，将2014年8月至2017年12月间符合入组条件的初诊AML患者诱导治疗后按1∶1比例随机分成两组：PEG-rhG-CSF组和rhG-CSF组。对比分析两组患者中性粒细胞计数（ANC）或WBC恢复时间、感染发生率和住院时间。

结果

共入组初诊AML患者60例，PEG-rhG-CSF组30例，rhG-CSF组30例。两组患者除性别构成外，在年龄、化疗方案、化疗前ANC、WBC、诱导化疗疗效方面差异均无统计学意义（P值均>0.05）。PEG-rhG-CSF组患者与rhG-CSF组患者的ANC、WBC恢复中位时间分别为19（14~35）d、19（15~26）d，差异无统计学意义（t=0.580，P=0.566）。PEG-rhG-CSF组、rhG-CSF组患者骨髓抑制期感染的发生率分别为90.0%、93.3%，差异无统计学意义（P=1.000）。两组患者的中位住院时间分别为20.5（17~49）d、21（19~43）d，差异无统计学意义（P=0.530）。

结论

AML患者诱导治疗后应用PEG-rhG-CSF与rhG-CSF无论在ANC或WBC恢复时间，还是在感染的发生率及住院时间均相当。

[Application of immunophenotypic analysis and molecular genetics in the diagnosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia]

目的

研究免疫表型分析及分子遗传学在急性早幼粒细胞白血病（APL）诊断中的应用价值。

方法

对2012年5月–2017年12月门诊或住院的798例APL患者的流式细胞术（FCM）免疫分型、染色体核型及染色体荧光原位杂交（FISH）进行回顾性分析，并深入研究FCM免疫表型及分子遗传学在APL诊断中的应用价值。

结果

FCM诊断APL敏感性为91.9%，特异性为98.7%。APL具有独特免疫表型特点：典型APL的表型为侧向（SSC）偏大，CD34和HLA-DR表达缺失，表达或强表达CD33，均一表达CD13、CD9、CD123，可伴有CD56、CD7、CD2的表达。约10%的患者为非典型APL表型，一般伴有CD34和（或）HLA-DR表达，SSC减小，经常伴有CD2表达，而FCM免疫分型很难明确诊断为APL，需要依赖遗传学或者分子生物学检查结果。约1/3的患者除存在t（15;17）（q22;q21）外，还存在额外染色体异常；伴有t（15；17）的复杂核型、变异易位或者t（11;17）、t（5;17）等变异型的APL，FCM表型与单纯t（15；17）APL差异无统计学意义（P>0.05）。

结论

FCM能够快速诊断APL，伴有额外染色体异常患者和单纯t（15；17）患者FCM免疫表型没有明显差异。遗传学是诊断APL的金标准，免疫分型中约10%的患者依赖于分子遗传学来确诊。

[Impact of duration of antibiotic therapy on the prognosis of patients with acute myeloid leukemia who had Gram-negative bloodstream infection in consolidation chemotherapy]

目的

分析巩固化疗期间伴发革兰阴性菌（G⁻菌）血流感染的急性髓系白血病（AML）患者抗感染疗程对感染转归的影响。

方法

回顾性分析2010年9月至2016年1月入组“依据危险度分层对急性髓系白血病优化治疗的研究”临床试验的591例AML（非急性早幼粒细胞白血病）患者的血流感染资料，将其中巩固化疗期间发生G⁻菌血流感染且持续发热时间<7 d的114例次血流感染（89例患者）纳入研究，分析抗感染疗程对感染转归的影响。

结果

114例次血流感染发生时，患者中位ANC为0（0~5.62）×10⁹/L，中性粒细胞缺乏（粒缺）持续的中位时间为9（3~26）d，抗感染治疗的中位时间为7（4~14）d。抗感染疗程≤7 d与>7 d组比较，停药后3 d内再发热比例、再次发生相同菌株血流感染比例分别为1.2%对3.0%、18.5%对21.2%，差异均无统计学意义（P=0.522，OR=0.400，95%CI 0.024~6.591；P=0.741，OR=0.844，95%CI 0.309~2.307）。同时，两组患者均未发生7 d及30 d内感染相关死亡。且倾向性评分平衡患者特征及用药差异因素后，抗感染疗程≤7 d较>7 d组再次发生相同菌株血流感染比例仍无明显增高（P=0.525，OR=0.663，95%CI 0.187~2.352）。

结论

对于巩固化疗期间伴发G⁻菌血流感染的AML患者，若发热时间<7 d，敏感抗菌药物治疗7 d后停药并不增加停药后3 d内再发热，粒缺期再次出现相同菌株血流感染及感染相关7 d、30 d内死亡风险。提示短疗程抗感染方案可以成为巩固化疗伴发G⁻菌血流感染AML患者感染控制情况下合理的治疗选择。

Deep ultraviolet light-emitting diodes with improved performance via nanoporous AlGaN template

We report the performance enhancement of AlGaN-based deep ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (DUV LEDs) using AlGaN nanoporous template (NPT). The NPT was fabricated by the electrochemical etching method and served as the dislocation filtering layer and strain relieving layer. The n-AlGaN laterally regrown on NPT showed reduced dislocation density and mitigated compressive strain comparing with that on the as-grown template (AGT). A 23% improvement of internal quantum efficiency was achieved for the multiple quantum wells thereon. Moreover, the nanopores in the NPT transformed into elongated air voids during high temperature growth process, which could facilitate the escaping of photons by scattering and thus improve the light extraction efficiency. As a consequence, the DUV LED based on NPT demonstrated an increase of the light outpower by 50% at 20 mA than that on AGT.
