Abstract
Small mammals exhibit limited glucose use and glycogen accumulation during hypothermia. Huddling is a highly evolved cooperative behavioral strategy in social mammals, allowing adaptation to environmental cooling. However, it is not clear whether this behavior affects the utilization of glycogen in cold environments. Here, we studied the effects of huddling on myocardial glycogen content in Brandt’s voles (Lasiopodomys brandtii) under a mild cold environment (15°C). Results showed that (1) Compared to the control (22°C) group (CON), the number of glycogenosomes more than tripled in the cool separated group (CS) in both males and females; whereas the number of glycogenosomes increased in females but was maintained in males in the cool huddling group (CH). (2) Glycogen synthase (GS) activity in the CS group remained unchanged, whereas glycogen phosphorylase (GYPL) activity decreased, which mediated the accumulation of glycogen content of the CS group. (3) Both GS and GYPL activity increased which may contribute to the stability of glycogen content in CH group. (4) The expression levels of glucose transporters GLUT1 and GLUT4 increased in the CS group, accompanied by an increase in glucose metabolism. These results indicate that the reduced glycogen degradation enzyme level and enhanced glucose transport may lead to an increase in myocardial glycogen content of the separated voles under cool environment; while the up-regulation of glycogen synthesis and degradation enzyme level maintained myocardial glycogen content in the huddling vole.

Abstract
The social behavior mechanisms have not been thoroughly reported in the solitary female striped dwarf hamster (Cricetulus barabensis). In this study, the handling bag test and neutral arena measurements were used to detect the changes of aggression in the face of rivals of different genders of wild striped dwarf hamsters. We found that female hamsters had the highest aggressive performance in proestrus, followed by estrus, and the lowest in metestrus and the dioestrus, and the increased aggression during the proestrus or estrus period was low-intensity aggression such as intimidation, shock, boxing and counterattack, or even ritualized non-harmful behaviors to drive away opponents. When confronted with male individuals, aggression in females decreased significantly during estrus. The concentration of plasma estradiol was the highest in estrus and the lowest in metestrus and dioestrus. In contrast, estrogen receptor 2 relative expression in the hypothalamus is the lowest in proestrus and highest in metestrus and dioestrus. Besides, both estradiol levels in plasma and estrogen receptor 2 mRNA in the hypothalamus were associated with aggression. These results will broaden our understanding of the molecular mechanism of how breeding phenotype is an essential driver in changing the social behavior of female Cricetulus barabensis.

Abstract
Harderian gland (HG) plays an important role in the physiological adaptation to terrestrial life, however, the mechanisms underlying the changes in the structure and function of the HG during aging remain unclear. This study investigated autophagy and apoptosis in the HG of striped dwarf hamsters (Cricetulus barabensis) of different ages (sub-adult, adult and aged groups) in both males and females. The results showed that LC3II/LC3I and puncta of LC3 were significantly higher in adult and aged individuals than sub-adults, whereas P62 decreased with age. Bax/bcl2was the highest in sub-adults of male and female individuals. Caspase3 activity was the highest in sub-adults of male and female individuals, and the citrate synthase activity was highest in sub-adults of females. ATP synthase, citrate synthase, dynamin-related protein 1 and mitochondrial fission factor (Mff) were the highest in sub-adults of females. Peptidylglycine α-amidating monooxygenase were the highest in the aged group, and those of gonadotropin-releasing hormone was the highest in the adult group. LC3II/LC3I, P62, Drp1, Fis, and bax/bcl2 were higher in males than that in females. These results suggest that apoptosis mainly affects growth and development in the HG, whereas autophagy affects aging. The difference of the HG weight and mitochondrial function between sexes is mainly related to the apoptosis.

Abstract
Photoperiod is an important factor of mammalian seasonal rhythm. Here, we studied morphological differences in the Harderian gland (HG), a vital photosensitive organ, in male striped dwarf hamsters (Cricetulus barabensis) under different photoperiods (short photoperiod, SP; moderate photoperiod, MP; long photoperiod, LP), and investigated the underlying molecular mechanisms related to these morphological differences. Results showed that carcass weight and HG weight were lower under SP and LP conditions. There was an inverse correlation between blood melatonin levels and photoperiod in the order SP > MP > LP. Protein expression of hydroxyindole-O-methyltransferase (HIOMT), a MT synthesis-related enzyme, was highest in the SP group. Protein expression of bax/bcl2 showed no significant differences, indicating that the level of apoptosis remained stable. Protein expression of LC3II/LC3I was higher in the SP group than that in the MP group. Furthermore, comparison of changes in the HG ultrastructure demonstrated autolysosome formation in the LP, suggesting the lowest autophagy level in under MP. Furthermore, the protein expression levels of ATP synthase and mitochondrial fission factor were highest in the MP group, whereas citrate synthase, dynamin-related protein1, and fission1 remained unchanged in the three groups. The change trends of ATP synthase and citrate synthase activity were similar to that of protein expression among the three groups. In summary, the up-regulation of autophagy under SP and LP may be a primary factor leading to loss of HG weight and reduced mitochondrial energy supply capacity.

Abstract
Photoperiod is an important factor of mammalian seasonal rhythm. The Harderian gland (HG) appears to act as a “standby” structure of the retinal-pineal axis, mediating light signals in vitro and neuroendocrine regulation in vivo; however, the effect of photoperiod on the HG is not clear. Here, we studied morphological differences in the HG of female striped dwarf hamsters (Cricetulus barabensis), a small mammal that experiences an annual rhythm, under different photoperiods (i.e., SP, short photoperiod; MP, moderate photoperiod; LP, long photoperiod), and further investigated the molecular mechanisms related to these morphological differences. Results showed that body weight, carcass weight, and HG weight were higher in the SP and LP groups than that in the MP group. Protein expression of hydroxyindole-o-methyltransferase, a key enzyme in melatonin synthesis, was higher in the SP group than in the other two groups. Somatostatin showed highest expression in the LP group. Furthermore, comparison of changes in the HG ultrastructure demonstrated autolysosome formation in the SP group. Protein aggregation and mRNA expression of LC3 and protein expression of LC3II/LC3I were higher in the SP group than in the MP group, indicating elevated autophagy under SP. Chromatin agglutination and mitochondrial damage were observed and bax/bcl2 and cytochrome C expression increased at the protein and mRNA levels in the SP and LP groups, suggesting increased apoptosis. Protein expression of dynamin-related protein 1 and mitochondrial fission factor (Mff) were highest in the SP group, suggesting elevated mitochondrial fission. Protein expression levels of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthase and citrate synthase were lower in the LP group than in the SP and MP groups. These results indicated that autophagy and apoptosis imbalance under SP and LP conditions may have led to HG weight loss and up-regulation of mitochondrial apoptosis may have weakened mitochondrial function under LP conditions. Finally, melatonin synthesis appeared to be positively correlated with the time hamsters entered darkness.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the clinical effect of the SCMC APL-2010 regimen in the treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) in children. METHODS A retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 44 children with APL who received treatment with the SCMC APL-2010 regimen between April 2010 and July 2016. The Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was used to evaluate event-free survival (EFS) rate and overall survival (OS) rate. RESULTS Of the 44 children with APL, 42 (95%) achieved a complete remission (CR) after one course of treatment and 1 achieved CR after two courses of treatment, with an overall CR rate of 98%. The 9-year EFS and OS rates were 96%±3% and 97.7%±2.2% respectively. As for adverse events, 41 (93%) had infection, 29 (66%) had granulocyte reduction, 12 (27%, 1 died) had differentiation syndrome, 16 (36%) had liver dysfunction, 12 (27%) had adverse gastrointestinal reactions, and 7 (16%) had QT prolongation, 1 (2%) had orchitis, and no secondary neoplasm was observed. CONCLUSIONS Children with APL receiving the SCMC APL-2010 regimen have a good prognosis and can achieve a long-term survival, while treatment-related infection is commonly seen.

Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the long-term efficacy and prognostic factors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) enrolled in Shanghai Children's Medical Center-Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia-2005(SCMC-ALL-2005) multicenter study. Methods: Between May 2005 and December 2014, 1 497 newly diagnosed ALL patients were enrolled and treated in 5 hospitals of SCMC-ALL-2005 study group, using risk-stratified SCMC-ALL-2005 protocol. Risk group classification and treatment intensity were based on clinical features, genetic abnormalities, early response to treatment and levels of minimal residual disease (MRD). Kaplan-Meier method was used to generate overall survival (OS) and event-free survival(EFS) curves. Cox proportional hazards models were used for multivariate analyses. Results: The patients were followed up to December 31, 2016, the median follow-up time was 69 months (24-141 months). The 5-year and 10-year OS rates were (80.0±1.0)% and (76.0±2.0)%. The 5-year and 10-year EFS rates were (69.0±1.0)% and (66.0±2.0)%. The 5-year and 10-year relapse rates were (23.0±1.0)% and (25.0±2.0)%. The 5-year OS and EFS for low risk (LR), intermediate risk (IR) and high risk (HR) were (91.1±1.4)% and (83.3±1.8)%, (79.2±1.5)% and (68.9±1.7)%, (52.9±4.4)% and (30.0±3.8)%, respectively. MRD negative status (<0.01%) on day 55 was seen in 792 patients (82.8%) and positive MRD on day 55 was associated with poor prognosis (OR=1.9, 95%CI: 1.3-2.7, P=0.001). Twenty-four HR patients received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and 17(70.8%) of them were alive and in remission. A total of 164 severe adverse events occurred, 46 of them died, treatment-related mortality was 3.1%. Conclusions: In this large sample research, the overall outcome for multi-center SCMC-ALL-2005 study was favorable. This helps to promote the standardized treatment of childhood ALL to the whole country. MRD results on day 55 of induction therapy have important prognostic and therapeutic implications.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the prevalence of metabolic syndrome (MS) among adults in rural areas of Ningxia Hui autonomous region. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in 10 639 adults enrolled with a multistage method from Jingyuan County. The MS was identified according to Chinese type 2 diabetes prevention guide (2013). Results: Among all the subjects, 17.4% of them met the MS definition with the standardized prevalence of 14.7% after adjustment of sex and age. The prevalence and standardized rate of MS in men were 19.9% and 17.3%, and in women were 15.3% and 13.5%.The prevalence of MS in men was higher than that in women(P<0.001) and increased with aging in both genders. The prevalence and standardized rate of abdominal obesity, hyperglycemia, hypertension, high triglycerides, and low HDL-C were 19.5% and 16.7%, 15.0% and 12.9%, 42.0% and 37.1%, 25.8% and 23.1%, 28.5% and 27.7%, respectively. The rate of abdominal obesity was higher in women than in men (20.5% vs 18.2%, P=0.004), whereas the rate of hypertension, high triglycerides, and low HDL-C were higher in men than in women (all P<0.01). The prevalence of having one parameter of the MS was 68.4%. Conclusion: The prevalence of MS is higher in rural areas of Ningxia Hui autonomous region, suggesting that a series of comprehensive prevention measures should be carried out to prevent and control the MS so as to improve the public health conditions in rural areas.

Abstract
Objective:The aim of this study is to retrospective analysis the clinic features of 118 cases of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo after trauma. Method:Analyzes clinic features of injury in 118 cases of benign paroxysmal positional vertigo after trauma, and classified and localized the craniocerebral trauma. The 118 cases were tested with different positioning tests in the sequence of Dix hallpike test and rolling test. Then, proper otolith manual reduction was given. Result:In 118 cases of BPPV after trauma including 35 cases of skull fracture, 6 cases of concussion, 17 cases of scalp hematoma, 28 cases of scalp laceration, 14 cases of mild brain contusion and 18 cases of head combined injury. The distributions of head injury were 57 at front temporal, 24 at top, 22 at occipital and 15 at maxillofacial region. The latency of BPPV after head injury varies from 1day to 1month. The incidence of 3-7 day after head injury was the highest, followed by 7-14 days, 0-3 days, and the lowest incidence rate of 14 day to 1 month. Canal type 118 BPPV patients after head injury accounting for up to 57.6% of the horizontal semicircular canal accounted for 33.1%, mixed 9.3%. Conclusion:The patients with front temporal trauma and skull fracture were prone to have BPPV. The peak incidence of BPPV was 3-14 days after head injury. The most common type of BPPV was PC BPPV, and the HC BPPV was the second type. A good curative effect can be manipulative reduction after trauma BPPV..

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the incidence, clinical characteristics and prognosis of childhood T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) enrolled in protocol ALL-2005. METHOD Retrospective reviews of patients diagnosed as having T-ALL were studied in the period between May 2005 and August 2013 in Shanghai Children's Medical Center. Predictive values of early treatment responses, including prednisone response, bone marrow morphology on day 35 during induction chemotherapy, and minimal residual disease (MRD) monitored by flow cytometry on day 35 and 55, were analyzed. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to assess the survival rates. RESULT Ninety-nine evaluable patients aged 1-18 years with newly diagnosed T-ALL were enrolled in protocol ALL-2005. The median follow-up period for patients remaining alive in continuous remission was 60 months (24-109 months). The 5-year event free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) rates for these patients were 65% and 69%, respectively. Forty-three (43%) patients were older than 10 years at diagnosis. A total of 61 patients presented with initial white blood cell count (WBC)≥50×10(9)/L. Thirty-seven patients with mediastinal mass were found in this study. Seventy-one patients were defined as prednisone good responders (PGR) on day 8 of prednisone therapy. Ninty-four patients achieved complete remission (CR) on day 35 of induction therapy. MRD negative status (<0.01%) on day 35 were seen in 55% of the 42 assessed patients. MRD negative status on day 55 was seen in 78% of the 52 assessed patients. Patients with high MRD (>1%) on day 55 5-year EFS was 40% were associated with poor prognosis (P=0.03). Early T-cell precursor (ETP) subtype was not associated with treatment outcome in this study. Six patients abandoned therapy, 10 lost to follow-up, 22 had relapsed disease, 1 was diagnosed as having a second tumor and 20 patients died. CONCLUSION Overall outcome for T-ALL on protocol ALL-2005 is favorable. MRD results on day 55 of induction therapy have important prognostic and therapeutic implications.

Abstract
Abstract
Background
BOLERO-2 phase III trial established the efficacy of everolimus (EVE) plus exemestane (EXE) for the treatment of postmenopausal patients with hormone receptor (HR)-positive, HER2-negative, advanced breast cancer (aBC). However, in this study only a minority (<10%) of patients were recruited from African and Asia Pacific countries. Considering the potential effects of ethnic and cultural differences on treatment effectiveness, it remains compelling to confirm the safety and efficacy profile of EVE+EXE in these populations.
Methods
EVEREXES is an open-label phase IIIb, single arm, multi-center trial, which from March 2013 to October 2014 enrolled 232 post-menopausal, HR-positive and HER2-negative, aBC patients previously treated with aromatase inhibitors, across 13 countries in Asia Pacific, Middle East, North and South Africa, with a significant majority of patients being of Asian ethnicity (196, 84.5%). Its primary objective was to investigate the safety and tolerability profile of EVE+EXE. Secondary objectives were the evaluation of efficacy (assessed by PFS, ORR, and CBR based on RECIST 1.1 criteria) and change in ECOG performance status.
Results
At data cut off of 31st of January 2015, at a median follow up of 11.7 months, median PFS for the ITT population was 9.5 months [9.2-11.6 months], based on local assessment, with the observation of 1 (0.4%) CR and 35 (15.4%) PR. Regarding safety and tolerability, a majority (81.1%) of grade (G) 1/2 adverse events (AEs) was reported. In particular, the following pattern was observed in terms of % of patients who developed G1/G2/G3 mTOR-inhibition induced AEs: stomatitis (36.1, 13.7, 10.6), rash (21.6/6.2/0), fatigue (10.6, 4.4, 2.2), hyperglycemia (6.2, 11.5, 7.0), weight decrease (7.5, 7, 0.9), pneumonitis (5.7, 7, 0.9). No Grade 4 AEs related to EVE+EXE treatment were observed, with exception of one case of non infectious pneumonitis (0.4%). Median dose intensity of everolimus was 9.2 mg/day.
Conclusions
Efficacy and safety results from EVEREXES trial further confirm the role of EVE+EXE for the treatment of HR+/Her2- advanced BC patients in Eastern countries. Results were consistent with data previously reported in BOLERO-2 trial.

Abstract
In order to investigate how photoperiod affects the expression of KiSS-1/G-protein-coupled receptor 54 (GPR54), the hypothalamus, the ovaries and testicles of the striped hamster were studied following photoperiod treatment and melatonin injection. We found that the melatonin concentration in the blood of the striped hamster was consistent with the treated photoperiods and that the photoperiod had significant effects on KiSS-1 expression, but the effect of photoperiod on GPR54 expression differed among tissues and sexes. The relative expression of KiSS-1 in the gonads of the male and female striped hamster was significantly higher than that in the hypothalamus, while the difference in GPR54 between the gonads and hypothalamus was inconsistent between the male and female striped hamster. In the striped hamster injected with melatonin, the expression level of KiSS-1 in the gonads and hypothalamus of the male and female striped hamster was significantly decreased; the expression level of GnRH in the gonads was also significantly decreased; the expression of GPR54 in the hypothalamus was increased. In the hypothalamus, a significant positive correlation existed between KiSS-1 and GnRH expression, while a negative correlation was observed between GPR54 and GnRH expression. These results suggest that the photoperiod-melatonin-KiSS-1-GnRH pathway plays an important role in the seasonal reproduction mechanism of the striped hamster. Additionally, photoperiod or melatonin may not be a direct regulatory factor of GPR54 expression.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This retrospective cohort study analysed the clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with childhood lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL) treated in Shanghai, China. PROCEDURE From 2001 to 2010, 108 evaluable patients ≤16 years of age who were newly diagnosed with biopsy-proven LBL were treated with one of three treatment protocols: CCCG-99, SCMC-T-NHL-2002, or LBL-CHOF-2006. RESULTS Two patients had Stage I disease, 5 had Stage II, 55 had Stage III, and 46 had Stage IV. The immunophenotype was T-cell LBL in 92 patients (85.2%) and precursor B-cell LBL in 16 (14.8%). The abandonment rate was 11.5%. Twenty-five patients (23.2%) suffered from resistant disease, including 1 with isolated central nervous system (CNS) relapse. At a median follow-up of 40.4 months (range, 0-114 months), the 5-year probability of event-free survival (pEFS) was 63.9 ± 4.6% in all patients. The 5-year pEFS for patients with pB-LBL was better than for patients with T-LBL (100% vs. 61.3 ± 5.1%, P = 0.007). Patients who had achieved complete remission on day 33 of induction had significantly better pEFS than those who had not (78.8 ± 4.6% vs. 28.2 ± 9.0%, P = 0.000). Three of 25 patients who experienced resistant disease were alive at the end of the study period. CONCLUSIONS The abandonment rate was lower for patients with LBL than for patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Prophylactic cranial radiation can be omitted for patients with LBL even when advanced-stage disease is present, as intensive systemic chemotherapy with intrathecal therapy is sufficient to prevent CNS relapse. The survival of patients with resistant disease was very poor.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To reduce the risk of therapy related complication during the treatment and keeps the long term event free survival, and to evaluate the results and risk factors of SCMC-lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL)-2005 protocol. METHODS Designed the new protocol SCMC-ALL-2005 based on the previous protocol XH-99 for ALL. Divided the patients into low, median and high risk groups depends on risk factors including day 33 and 55 minimal residual disease (MRD) level. The higher risk group, the more intensive therapy was given. All the cases were registed on pediatric oncology network database (POND). All the abandonment patients were counted as event. From May 1(st) 2005 to April 30(th) 2009, 351 children who were newly diagnosed as B lineage ALL were enrolled in this study. The prognoses relating to risk grouping, age, mutation gene and MRD level were analyzed. RESULTS Up to June 30, 2011, 273 patients were followed up with median time 49 months (range 26 to 74 months). Three hundred and forty-five patients (98.29%) achieved complete remission on day 35 induction. 12 cases were younger than 1 year old (3.42%), 285 cases between 1 and 9 years old (81.20%), 54 cases 10 to 18 years old (15.38%). Five year event-free survival (EFS) was 34%, 72% and 63%, respectively. One hundred and fifty-six cases belonged to lowered risk (44.44%), 177 to middle risk (50.43%) and 18 to higher risk (5.13%). Five year EFS was 78%, 64% and 30%, respectively. In this study, 18 patients were detected positive for BCR/ABL, 3 for MLL/AF4, 16 for PBX/E2A, and 36 for TEL/AML. The 5 year EFS were 11%, 66%, 75% and 74%, respectively. A total of 300 cases were tested for MRD levels on day 35. Of them, 241 cases were with MRD ≤ 0.01% (negative), and 59 cases > 0.01% (positive). The 5 year relapse free survival (RFS) was 79% and 58%, respectively. Total 6 patients died of complication (1.71%). 18 patients were abundant treatment with no disease progress. 70 patients relapsed (19.94%), including 52 bone marrow, 8 central nerve system (CNS), 1 both in bone marrow and CNS, 1 second cancer (M(4)) and 8 testis. Five year overall survival (OS) and EFS are 84% and 69%. CONCLUSIONS The risk of therapy related death is low with the protocol SCMC-ALL-2005. MRD affects the prognosis. The long term prognosis is poor for high risk group, with BCR/ABL and positive MRD.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This study quantitatively examined signal joint T-cell receptor rearrangement excision circles (sjTRECs) levels in peripheral blood of children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) at different stages in order to evaluate the role of sjTRECs in predicting severe infection postchemotherapy. METHODS sjTRECs levels in peripheral blood were measured by fluorescent quantitation-polymerase chain reaction in 30 children with newly diagnosed ALL, 36 children with ALL who accepted chemotherapy but were not infected, 30 children with ALL who had severe infection after chemotherapy, and 50 normal children. RESULTS Blood sjTRECs levels in the normal group (394 ± 270 copies/103 MNC) were significantly higher than those in the other three groups (P<0.05). Blood sjTRECs levels in the chemotherapy group without infection (96 ± 78 copies/103 MNC) were significantly lower than those in the newly diagnosed ALL group (210 ± 219 copies/103 MNC) (P<0.05). The chemotherapy group with severe infection showed the lowest blood sjTRECs levels (48 ± 40 copies/103 MNC) in the four groups. CONCLUSIONS The measurement of blood sjTRECs levels might be helpful for predicting the occurrence of severe infection postchemotherapy in children with ALL.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the outcomes of childhood acute monocytic leukemia (AML-M5) and explore the indications of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) for children with AML-M5. METHOD Seventy-five AML-M5 patients and 201 non-AML-M5 AML patients were enrolled in this retrospective analysis. Event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were estimated by Kaplan-Meier method and prognostic factors were evaluated by COX regression with SPSS. RESULT (1) Twelve patients gave up treatment after confirmed diagnosis. Two patients died on the second day after chemotherapy. Of the 61 patients, 73.8% (45/61) achieved complete remission (CR) after two courses of chemotherapy. The 5-year EFS rate was 34.5% ± 6.8%. But of the 117 non-AML-M5/M3 AML patients, the 5-year EFS rate was 51.0% ± 4.9%. (2) Multivariate analysis showed that age ≥ 10 y, the proportion of bone marrow blast cell counts ≥ 15% after the first induction therapy, not CR after two courses of chemotherapy were risk factors for the long-term prognosis. (3) Of the 20 patients whose bone marrow blast cell counts ≥ 15% after the first induction therapy, 5 patients who choose allo-HSCT had a better OS than the other 15 patients who choose chemotherapy only (60.0% ± 21.9% vs. 7.3% ± 7.1%, P = 0.024). CONCLUSION Children with AML-M5 had a poorer prognosis than the other AML patients; patients whose bone marrow blast cell counts ≥ 15% after the first induction therapy chose allo-HSCT had a better prognosis. At present, there is no enough evidence to support that patients whose bone marrow blast cell counts < 15% after the first induction therapy should choose unrelated donor for allo-HSCT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To analyze the outcome of childhood aplastic anemia received allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and immunosuppressive therapy (IST). METHODS The clinical data of 125 consecutive children with aplastic anemia (AA) in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS According to the clinical manifestations, the 125 AA children were divided into two groups: SAA (n = 79) and NSAA (n = 46). There was no significant difference between the two groups in sex, age and follow-up duration (P > 0.05). The median follow-up was 25 (6 - 89) months. 103 cases received IST and 22 received allogenic HSCT. In SAA group, the response rate was better in patients received allogenic HSCT (n = 21) than in those received IST (n = 58) (85.7% vs 53.4%, P < 0.01). SAA patients received IST were further divided into two groups: 47 received antithymocyte globulin (ATG) and cyclosporine-A (CsA) combined therapy, 11 received CsA alone. There was no significant difference in total response rates (55.3% vs 45.5%, P = 0.555) and cure rates (42.6% vs 27.3%, P = 0.499) between the two groups. In NSAA group, 45 patients received IST and 1 received allogenic HSCT. In the IST treated NSAA patients, there was also no statistic significance in cure rates (36.4% vs 32.4%, P = 0.806) and total effective rates (63.6% vs 64.7%, P = 0.949) between ATG and CsA combined therapy (n = 11) and CsA alone therapy (n = 34). CONCLUSION The outcome of children with AA received allogenic HSCT was obviously better than those received IST. IST is still the choice for patients without suitable donors for HSCT.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To examine the incidence and clinical significance of NPM1 mutations in childhood acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients. METHODS NPM1 mutations of 70 newly diagnosed childhood AML were detected by high resolution melting (HRM) analysis on the LightCycler 480. The incidence and clinical significance were analyzed. RESULTS NPM1 mutations were identified in 32 (45.7%) of the 70 AML children. There was no significant difference in clinical characteristics between patients with or without NPM1 mutation, but patients with NPM1 mutation had a higher platelet count (P = 0.013). There was also no significant difference in NPM1 mutation between normal and abnormal karyotype groups. In AML-ETO or PML-RARα positive groups, the incidence of NPM1 mutations was significant lower (P = 0.048). There was no significant difference in response rates after induction therapy (P = 0.217), but the complete remission (CR) rate was higher in the NPM1-mutated group (81.3%). There was a trend toward higher event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival (OS) rates in the NPM1 mutated patients than that in wild NPM1 patients (EFS = 53.8% vs 41.4%, OS = 52.7% vs 39.2%), but the difference was not statistically significant (P = 0.374 and 0.380). CONCLUSION NPM1 mutations were relatively common in our cohort of AML patients. There was no significant difference in clinical characteristics between patients with and without NPM1 mutation. The NPM1 mutation patients group seemed to have better therapy response, but the difference was not statistically significant.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To improve the long-term prognosis of childhood Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) by standard treatment protocol HL-98. METHODS Patients were divided into low (R(1)), middle (R(2)) and high-risk (R(3)) groups based on staging, tumor size and with or without B symptoms. Patients of R(1), R(2) and R(3) groups were given 4, 6, and 9 courses of chemotherapy, respectively. Low dose radiotherapy to involved area was given to patients with residual disease at the end of chemotherapy. All patients diagnosed between 1998 and Dec. 2008 were enrolled. The software of SPSS 11.0 was used and the event free survival (EFS) was generated by Kaplan-Meier. RESULTS There was a total of 26 patients with male 20 and female 6. The average age was 97 (30 to 179) months and median age 94.5 months. Three patients were in stage I, 4 in stage II, 9 in stage III and 10 in stage IV. Of 26 patients, 24 were found with neck tumor, 12 with mediastinum tumor, 11 with spleen infiltration and 5 with B symptom. Four patients were allocated into R(1) group, 12 R(2) group and 10 R(3) group. Eight of 26 with residual disease received radiotherapy, 7 received 20-26 Gy and 1 received 36 Gy. To Jun 2009, 21 (80.76%) of them kept in complete remission (CR) at 10 to 120 months follow-up (average 36 months, and median 31 months). Five cases relapsed (1 of stage III and 4 of stage IV) within 5 to 12 months. Three out of 4 in stage IV with B symptom relapsed. The estimated 5-year overall survival (OS) was 85.9% and EFS was 73.7%. CONCLUSION The estimated 5-year EFS indicated that protocol HL-98 is reasonable good. Patients of stage I and II can obtain a good prognosis without radiotherapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The safety and efficacy of early acetylcholinesterase inhibitors therapy in patients with cognitive impairment no dementia (CIND) after a cerebrovascular accident have not been examined. In this study, we investigated the safety and efficacy of rivastigmine in cognition, particularly executive function in patients with CIND because of cerebrovascular disease. METHODS This study was a 24-week, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial of ischemic stroke patients seen at a tertiary hospital who had cognitive impairment no dementia because of cerebrovascular disease. The intervention was either rivastigmine or placebo up to 9 mg/day. The primary outcome of interest was mean change from baseline in the Ten-Point Clock Drawing and Color Trails 1 and 2. RESULTS Fifty patients were randomized into rivastigmine (n = 25) and placebo (n = 25) arms. Patients in the rivastigmine group showed statistically significant improvement (1.70 vs 0.13, P = 0.02) on the animal subtask of the verbal fluency measure compared with placebo. There was also a trend (non-significant) towards improvement in Color Trails II. CONCLUSIONS In this pilot study, we demonstrated that rivastigmine was well tolerated in patients with CIND because of cerebrovascular disease and may potentially improve executive functioning.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Little was known about the therapeutic result of rhabdomyosarcomas (RMSs) and other malignant tumors until the end of the last century in China. Very few prospective clinical research results have been reported. We designed a RS-99 protocol under close cooperation of a multidisciplinary team including surgeons, radiologists, pathologists, and pediatric oncologists at Shanghai Children's Medical Center. This study aimed to improve the prognosis of childhood solid tumors and analyze the results of different tumors with the same protocol, including RMSs, the Ewing sarcoma family of tumors (ESFTs), and ex-cranial germ cell tumors (GCTs). METHODS Sixty-six patients with malignant solid tumors [RMS (n=30), GCT (n=22), and ESFT (n=14)] were enrolled on the RS-99 protocol from October 1998 to October 2006. They were 34 girls and 32 boys aged 9 to 194 months. The protocol involved surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy which included VCP (vincristine, cisdiaminedichloroplatinum, and cyclophosphamide) and IEV (etoposide, vincristine and ifosfamide) for the low-risk group, AVCP (adriamycin, vincristine, cisdiaminedichloroplatinum, and cyclophosphamide) and IEV for the intermediate-risk group and high-risk group. Peripheral blood stem cell transplantation was suggested for the high-risk group. Radiotherapy was only given for RMS and ESFT. Differences in survival between the groups were determined by comparison of entire survival curves and tested by the Kaplan-Meier method and the log-rank tests. RESULTS The 5-year event-free survival (EFS) for the whole group (RMS, ESFT and GCT) was 60%. The 5-year EFS for children with RMS was 35% (95% CI 16-54), GCT was 79% (95% CI 70-88) and ESFT was 72% (95% CI 58-86). The 5-year EFS showed that the patients with RMS in the retroperitoneum-pelvis did not have a better result than those with tumors in other sites (P=0.604). The histological classification of RMS exerted prognostic influence on the estimated 5-year EFS (P=0.04). Tumor stage and risk group were also contributive to prognosis (P=0.008). For GCT patients, the primary sites of tumors and their histological classification did not influence the therapeutic result (P=0.814). The 5-year EFS was 100% in stage I and II versus 62% in stage III and IV patients (P=0.02). Because of the small number of patients, we did not analyze the prognostic factors for patients with ESFT. No organ failure or functional impairment occurred in the patients enrolled in the RS-99 protocol. One ESFT patient developed a second cancer. CONCLUSIONS The RS-99 protocol is well tolerated and is reasonable for the 3 different tumors. Risk-based grouping protocol design is needed and the protocol for high risk RMS should be revised.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the efficacy and safety of the ICE regimen (iphosphamide + carboplatin + etoposide) used in treating children with hepatoblastoma in the Shanghai Children's Medical Center. METHODS From June 2000 to June 2008, 14 children with newly diagnosed hepatoblastoma (7 males and 7 females) were enrolled. Their median age on diagnosis was 1.33 years (range: 0.25-8.25 years). Six patients had stage I disease, 1 had stage II, 5 had stage III, and 2 had stage IV diseases. Thirteen children had markedly increased serum AFP level, and 1 had normal serum AFP level. Multidisciplinary co-operation treatment was performed. Eight patients had primary surgery while 3 patients had pre-operation chemotherapy before surgery. ICE chemotherapy regimen was used. Totally, 73 courses of chemotherapy were administered for the 14 children and 25 out of the 73 courses were performed before operation. RESULTS Twelve patients responded to the treatment (85.7%) and 2 failed. Ten patients (71.4%) achieved complete remission after treatment, and two had partial remission. By July 31st, 2008, 9 patients survived without any event, with a median follow-up duration of 35 months (range: 16-96 months). The 5-year overall survival rate was 70.71+/-12.37%, and the 5-year event-free survival rate was 64.29+/-12.81%. One patient had disease relapse and two patients were lost to follow-up after they achieved partial remission. CONCLUSIONS The ICE regimen combined with operation is effective and safe in treating children with hepatoblastoma.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Minimal residual disease (MRD) is one of the most important prognostic factors in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Flow cytometry and PCR are two common techniques for examining MRD in ALL. This study aimed to identify MRD targets by tandem application of both techniques in children with ALL. METHODS From September 2001 to October 2003, 126 children with newly diagnosed ALL were enrolled on the treatment protocol ALL-XH-99. Tandem application of flow cytometry and PCR was performed to identify MRD targets in these patients. RESULTS 1. Using sets of combined antibodies, immunophenotypic expression of leukemia cells was observed in 95 of 106 B-lineage ALL cases (89.6%). Only one aberrant immunophenotype was observed in 11 cases (11.6%) and most patients with B-lineage ALL (88.4%) expressed at least two suitable targets. 2. Using PCR technique, T-cell receptor (TCR) or immunoglobulin gene rearrangements were identified in 26 of 27 patients (96.3%). Two or more monoclonal/ bi-allelic gene rearrangements were identified in 17 cases (65.4%). The majority (70%) of T-lineage ALL cases contained TCRVgammaI-Jgamma1.3/2.3. Cross-lineage TCR rearrangements were found in 57.1% of cases with B-lineage ALL. 3. Suitable MRD targets of immunophenotypic abnormalities or antigen receptor gene rearrangements were detected in 121 patients (96.0%). CONCLUSIONS MRD targets were identified using tandem application of flow cytometry and PCR in almost of children with ALL. Cross-lineage TCR rearrangements and bi-allelic gene rearrangements were observed in many patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The prognostic significance of immunophenotyping in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) has been controversial. This study investigated the relationship of immunophenotypes with French-American-British (FAB) subtypes and chromosomal abnormalities and assessed the prognostic value of immunophenotyping in children with AML. METHODS From January 1998 to May 2003, 75 children with newly diagnosed AML were enrolled on protocol AML-XH-99. Immunophenotypes were measured with the flow cytometry. According to the McAbs used, the patients were classified into five groups: panmyeloid antigens (CD13, CD33, and MPO), myeloid-lineage associated antigens (CD14, CD15), lineage-specific antigens (CD41, GlyA), progenitor-associated antigens (CD34, HLA-DR) and lymphoid-associated antigens (CD19, CD7). The probability of event-free survival (EFS) was estimated by Kaplan-Meier analysis. The distributions of EFS were compared using the log-rank test. Chi-square analysis or Fisher exact test was used to compare the differences in the distribution of biologic presenting features. A Cox proportional hazards model was used to identify independent prognostic factors. RESULTS At least one of panmyeloid antigens CD13, CD33 and MPO was expressed in 72 patents (97.3%). Two or more panmyeloid antigens were expressed in 45 patients (60.8%). The proportion of children with AML expressing one or more of the lymphoid-associated antigens was 24.3%. Lymphoid-associated antigen CD19 was expressed by blast cells in most of FAB M2 patients. The patients with acute promyelocytic leukemia were characterized by the absence of HLA-DR and lymphoid-associated antigens CD19 and CD7. Monovariate analysis showed immunophenotypes were not related to the complete remission rate after the first induction course and the 5-year-EFS. Multivariate analysis suggested immunophenotyping had no independent prognostic value in AML. CONCLUSIONS Immunophenotyping can not be used independently in the evaluation of risk classification in children with AML. However, it is useful in the reorganization of special types of AML.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop a reasonable protocol for childhood rhabdomyosarcoma (RS) to improve the prognosis of this disease. METHODS The protocol RS-99, developed on the base of pathological examination, clinical staging and grouping was used for 30 RS patients, 15 male and 15 female, aged 53 months (15-180 months). For the low-risk patients the regimen VCP and IeV were used alternately for 6 treatment courses and then local radiotherapy was given, for the median and high risk patients, regimen AVCP and IEV were used alternately for 6 courses, local radiotherapy and selective operation were performed, and then DEV and IeV were used alternately for 6 courses, and for the high-risk patients DEV and IeV were used alternately for 18 courses in total and then hematopoietic stem cell transplantation was conducted. RESULTS Twenty-three of the 30 patients reached complete response (CR) 17 of which remained in CR for 37 (32-92) months, and 7 of the 30 patients achieved partial response (PR) but their condition worsened later. Relapse was seen in 6 patients 15 (7-38) months later. The 5 year event-free survival (EFS) rate was 47% and the overall survival (OS) rate was 52%. All the 10 stage I and II patients, 5 of the 8 stage III patients, and only 2 of the 12 stage IV patients still remained in CR. CONCLUSION The protocol RS-99 is effective on the RS at stages I, II, and III, however, is ineffective on the disease at stage IV.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Early response to therapy is one of the most important prognostic factors in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). This study aimed to assess the prognostic value of morphological assessment of bone marrow blasts during remission induction and determination of minimal residual disease (MRD) after remission induction. METHODS From January 1998 to May 2003, 193 children with newly diagnosed ALL were enrolled on the ALL-XH-99 protocol. Blast cell count in the bone marrow was examined on day 19 of remission induction and by the completion of remission induction. MRD was measured with the flow cytometry. Event-free survival (EFS) was estimated by Kaplan-Meier analysis and the distributions of EFS were compared using the log-rank test. A Cox proportional hazards model was used to identify independent prognostic factors. RESULTS The 4-year EFS was significantly worse in patients with > or = 5% lymphoblasts in the bone marrow on day 19 as compared to those with <5% lymphoblasts on that date (42.59%+/- 14.28% vs 74.24%+/- 6.67%; p< 0.01). The 4-year EFS was significantly worse in patients with any amount of lymphoblasts in the bone marrow on the remission date as compared to that of other patients with no morphologically identifiable blasts (63.47%+/-9.23% vs 76.41%+/- 6.09%; p<0.05). The patients with MRD <0.01 had significantly better outcome than those with a level > or = 0.01% (15-month EFS:94.44%+/-5.40% vs 23.81%+/- 20.26%; p<0.01). CONCLUSIONS Early treatment response as assessed by morphological examination or minimal residual leukemia determination by flow cytometry has important prognostic significance, and can be performed in a resource-poor patient population.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the role of minimal residual disease (MRD) in the evaluation of therapeutic effectiveness of childhood B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). METHODS MRD testing was performed in 124 children with B-cell ALL, who were newly diagnosed and enrolled in the ALL-XH-99 treatment protocol from September 2001 to April 2005MRD was determined by 4-color flow cytometry in the different time points during the treatment period. RESULTS After induction therapy, 103, 13 and 8 patients showed MRD <0.01%, 0.01%-0.1% and >0.1%, respectively. The 5-year relapse-free survival (RFS) in the patients with MRD <0.01%, 0.01%-0.1% and >0.1% was 88.9+/-3.9%, 70.0+/-14.5% and 0%, respectively and the 5-year event-free survival (EFS) was 82.4+/-4.4%, 21.2+/-18.0% and 0%, respectively. There were significant differences in the RFS and EFS among the patients with different MRD levels (P<0.01). Within half a year after induction remission, the 5-year RFS in patients with MRD negative (<0.01%) and positive was 87.7+/-4.1% and 58.3+/-14.2%, respectively (P<0.01) and the 5-year RFS was 80.7+/-4.6% and 25.6+/-13.8%, respectively (P<0.01). After half a year with induction remission, the patients with MRD negative and positive also showed statistical differences in the 5-year RFS (92.0+/-3.6% vs 48.5+/-15.5%; P<0.01) and EFS (85.6+/-4.5% vs 21.4+/-11.0%; P<0.01). Multivariate analysis confirmed that the MRD level after induction chemotherapy together with the reaction to prednisone, the bone marrow features on the 19th day of induction, and the fusion gene with BCR-ABL or MLL-AF4 had prognostic significance in childhood B-cell ALL. CONCLUSIONS The MRD level in the whole course of therapy is an important outcome indicator in childhood B cell ALL.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of AML-XH-99-M3 protocol for treatment of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) in children. METHODS Thirty-three children with APL received AML-XH-99-M3 protocol treatment. The event-free survival (EFS), disease-free survival (DFS), and overall survival (OS) were evaluated by the Kaplan-Meier medthod with SPSS13.0 software. RESULTS Thirty patients (90.9%) achieved a complete remission (CR) after one course of treatment. The total CR rate was 100%. Six patients (18.2%) relapsed in an average of 29.17 months (16-38 months). Two patients (6.1%) died. The 7-year EFS and DFS in the 30 patients were 73.4+/-9.4%. The overall survival rate was 91.2+/-6.0%. The difference of EFS was observed in patients receiving intermittent all-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) administration or not in the maintenance therapy (88.9+/-10.5% vs 62.5+/-13.6%) (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The AML-XH-99-M3 protocol for the treatment of APL produced a higher CR rate and higher EFS, DFS and OS rates in children. Intermittent administration of ATRA in the maintenance therapy can improve EFS rate.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the prognostic factors for events-free survival (EFS) in children with acute non-mature B-lymphoblastic leukemia. METHODS One hundred and sixty-one children with newly diagnosed acute non-mature B-lymphoblastic leukemia received the ALL-XH-99 protocol treatment. Their medical data, including clinical, biological and molecule features, early responses to treatment (bone marrow evaluation on the 19th day of induction therapy), minimal residual disease (MRD) in bone marrow after remission induction therapy, the risk grade of disease before the beginning of chemotherapy and the outcome, were retrospectively studied. RESULTS Univariable analysis indicated that the gender and P170 levels before therapy had no effect on the outcome. Age, initial white blood cell count (WBC), prednisone response, early response to treatment, fusion genes (BCR/ABL or MLL/AF4) and MRD level were significantly related to the EFS (P<0.01). Immunophenotype, myeloid-associated antigen and the risk grade of disease were also related to the EFS (P<0.05). Multivariable analysis showed that WBC >or=50 x 10(9)/L, Cmu positive, BCR/ABL or MLL/AF4 positive and MRD positive (>or=0.01%) were risk factors for the poor prognosis (P<0.01). The early response to treatment was important to modify the therapy protocol. CONCLUSIONS WBC >or=50 x 10(9)/L, Cmu positive, BCR/ABL or MLL/AF4 positive and MRD positive have important prognostic values in childhood acute non-mature B-lymphoblastic leukemia. Early response to treatment is an important index for modifying the chemotherapy protocol.

Abstract
Single nucleotide polymorphisms of the exon7, 8, 9 of the porcine IGF2 gene were tested using PCR-SSCP. Genetic effects of the IGF2 gene on birth weight, weaning weight, six-month weight and six-month backfat thickness were analyzed. On the basis of the published DNA sequence (AY044828) of the porcine IGF2 gene, three pairs of primers were designed, and one polymorphism, three genotypes were found in the PCR product amplified with Ex8 primers. C-->T transition at 53 site of exon8 was detected by sequencing the homozygotes. The results showed that: firstly, the genotype distribution was not consistent among the different pig breeds. No significant differences (P > 0.05) were found in the genotype distribution when compared the Landrace with the Large White , the Laiwu with the Dapuliang, and the Yimeng with the Licha Black pig breeds, whereas significant differences (P lt; 0.01) were found among other tested pig breeds in the genotype distribution. Secondly, on the basis of the fixed effect model, significant differences (P lt; 0.05) were found in birth weight and six-month backfat thickness, whereas no significant differences (P > 0.05) existed in weaning weight and six-month weight. Thirdly, using least square analysis, it was shown that individuals of the BB genotype have significantly lower (P lt; 0.05) birth weight than those of AA and AB genotypes, with the order being AB > AA > BB ; Individuals of the AA genotype have significantly lower (P lt; 0.05) six-month backfat thickness than those of AB and BB genotypes, with the order being BB > AB > AA. These results suggest that IGF2 gene has significant effects on individual birth weight and backfat thickness. The IGF2 gene can be used in marker-assisted selection to accelerate the breeding progress.

Abstract
Single-nucleotide polymorphisms of the MyoG gene were tested using PCR-SSCP in different pig breeds including Landrace, Large White, Duroc, Shanxi Black, and Mashen pigs, and the effects of the MyoG gene on the birth weight, the weaning weight, the 6-month body weight, and the backfat thickness were also analyzed. On the basis of the published sequence of the porcine MyoG gene, ten pairs of primers were designed, and one polymorphism was found in the PCR product amplified with In2-3 primers. The results showed that: (1) the Landrace, the Large White, and the Duroc breeds differ significantly (P < 0.05) in genotype distribution from the Shanxi Black and the Mashen breeds; (2) On the basis of the fixed effect model, significant differences were found in the birth weight and the backfat thickness among the different MyoG genotypes, whereas no significant differences existed in the weaning weight and the 6-month body weight; (3) Using least square analysis, it was seen that individuals of the BB genotype had significantly less (P < 0.01) birth weight than those of the AA and AB genotypes, with the order being AA>AB>BB; the pigs of the AA genotype had significantly lower (P < 0.01) backfat thickness than those of the AB and BB genotypes, with the order being AA<AB<BB. These results suggest that the genotype has significant effects on the individual birth weight and the backfat thickness, and that the selection of the A allele is favored with regard to the birth weight and the backfat thickness.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To study the cellular activity of asparagine synthetase in different types of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). METHODS The cellular activity of asparagine synthetase was detected by HPLC-FLD and Protein measurement in 28 ALL children (7 cases of T-ALL and 21 cases of B-lymphoid lineage ALL) before chemotherapy. RESULTS The asparagines synthetase activity levels in T-ALL children were significantly higher than those of the B-lymphoid lineage ALL patients, with the median activity level of 9.3 nM Asn/mg protein/hr vs 5.2 nM Asn/mg protein/hr (P < 0.05). The distribution of the asparagine synthetase activity demonstrated a polymorphism in either T-ALL or B-lymphoid lineage ALL patients. CONCLUSIONS The cellular activity of asparagines synthetase in ALL patients is presented with a polymorphism distribution. The asparagines synthetase activity levels in T-ALL are significantly higher than in B-lymphoid lineage ALL.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the outcomes of childhood acute myeloid leukemia (AML) treated with AML-XH-99 protocol and explore how to improve the event-free survival (EFS) rate. METHODS Eighty-two patients entered AML-XH-99 clinical trial. Survival rates were evaluated by Kaplan-Meier method with SPSS. RESULTS Among the 82 patients, 58 (70.7%) achieved complete remission (CR) after one course treatment, and the total CR rate was 84.1%. The overall 5 year EFS rate was (46.1 +/- 9.1)% and disease-free survival (DFS) rate was (54.3 +/- 10.3)% over a median observation period of 23 months. The 5 year EFS rate of 56 patients received high-dose cytarabine(HD-Ara-C) as intensification therapy was (47.2 +/- 12.9)%. Relapse occurred in 19 patients (26.0%) with a median time of 10 months (ranges 2 approximately 53 months), 28 patients died. CONCLUSION AML-XH-99 protocol resulted in a higher CR rate, especially one course CR rate, which was one of the key factors for long-term EFS and HD-Ara-C intensification therapy was effective in the treatment of childhood AML.

Abstract
To observe the expressions of CD10 in childhood B-acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL) and to define the role of CD10 in minimal residual disease (MRD) detection. 58 cases of childhood B-ALL were studied in this program. Four-color flow cytometry was used to analyze the characteristics of B-ALL phenotypes. The four-color fluorochrome labeled antibody combinations of CD10 with other markers were used to detect MRD. The results showed that CD10 overexpression (CD10(bright)) was detected in 65.5% (38/58) of B-ALL patients and a strong correlation between CD10(bright) and CD34 expression was also observed, i.e. CD10(bright) expression most frequently happened in B-ALL with high percentage of CD34 positive cells. In detection of MRD, CD10(bright), combined with other markers, could effectively distinguish normal cells with leukemic cells, even if there was no any other marker that can be used. It is concluded that CD10(bright) expression correlates with high expression of CD34 in B-ALL, it is a good marker for MRD detection. The combination of CD10 and other markers can be applied in B-ALL MRD detection with flow cytometry.

Abstract
Apoptotic cell death induced by cross-linking Fas receptor (FasR/CD95) has been investigated in human acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) cells. FasR-mediated growth inhibition and DNA fragmentation could be induced in certain cases of AML. Interestingly, when DNA synthesis and G1 -> S transition in the cell cycle were enhanced by interleukin-3 or granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, Fas-insensitive blast cells acquired cellular susceptibility toward FasR-mediated growth inhibition. To further evaluate an association between the Fas-R-mediated action and a specific phase of the cell cycle, a FasR+ leukemic cell line, MML-1, was established from a patient with AML. The morphologic feature of dying cells and DNA fragmentation indicated that FasR cross-linking induced apoptotic cell death in MML-1 cells. Cell cycle arrest in G1A phase with the treatment of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate or thymidine rendered MML-1 cells resistant to FasR-mediated apoptosis without downregulation of surface FasR expression. However, S-phase arrest with 5-fluorouracil could neither enhance nor inhibit FasR-mediated apoptosis. Simultaneous DNA/RNA quantification analysis revealed the selective loss of cells in G1B compartment, accompanied by the increase of apoptotic nuclei in sub-G1 fraction. These findings suggested that FasR-mediated apoptotic signals could be transduced into cells in G1B compartment and G1A -> G1B transition might augment the induction of FasR-mediated apoptosis.

Abstract
Comparisons between x-ray and B-mode ultrasonic examinations were carried out in 32 divers in both shoulders and both hips (128 comparisons in all). The x-rays showed dysbaric osteonecrosis (DON) in 46 sites; in 43 of these, the B-mode ultrasonogram result coincided with the x-ray finding. We suggest that B-mode ultrasonograms can depict the location, form, and size of the lesions. It is an easy, efficient, and noninvasive method of diagnosing DON, worthy of further investigation and application. Similar good agreement between x-rays and ultrasonograms was found with the now-obsolete A-mode technique.

Abstract
In a prospective investigation of 164 cases of dysbaric osteonecrosis out of a total of 1269 hyperbaric workers, we found that lesions are apt to occur more frequently in some sites of the head and neck of the femur and humerus than in others. Defining the susceptibility of sites with radiographs has improved our ability to make early diagnoses because we are able to estimate the likelihood of a definite lesion of osteonecrosis developing. We have found that when the trabeculae in a susceptible site appear disordered or have translucent areas, the site often develops into osteonecrosis in a few years.

Abstract
Rabbits developed acute decompression sickness after staying at 6 ATA for 30 min followed by decompression to 1 ATA in 20 min or less. If the rabbits received an i.v. injection of 25% ethanol upon surfacing, all survived, whereas half the untreated control group died within 15-35 min after decompressing. In ethanol-treated animals, no bubbles were seen in blood vessels of visceral organs, muscles, and subcutaneous tissues at autopsy 60 min after treatment. Decompression reduced platelet counts markedly in all rabbits, but in the control group the count stayed low, whereas with ethanol treatment the counts had reached the precompression level after 1 h and 24 h.

Abstract
Dysbaric osteonecrosis was found in 259 cases among 2260 examined hyperbaric workers from several occupations. No positive cases were found in the divers in shipyards and diving experiments. Naval divers showed the lowest incidence (2.1%) and fishery divers the highest (19.8%). Distribution of long bone lesions was 46.0% in upper humerus, 37.7% in upper femur, 8.3% in lower femur, and 8.0% in upper tibia. We classify long bone lesions into three radiographic stages, the first two on the basis of size of the bone lesions as projected on the radiographs, and the third stage on the basis of extension of the lesion toward articular destruction. The three-stage classification system correlates with the clinical symptoms, and the working capacity of the individual patients tends to correlate with the severity of dysbaric osteonecrosis and can be understood by the general public.
