Abstract:
Objective This study is aimed to investigate the prognostic significance of ring sideroblast ( RS) in MDS( Myelodysplastic Sydrome ) and evaluate the correlation of RS and other prognostic index.Methods A total of 198 patients with MDS between March 2009 and December 2015 in Chinese PLA′s Gerneral hospital were chosen for this study .Based on the ratio of RS in nucleated red blood cell , patients were first separated into myelodysplastic syndrome without ring sideroblast (MDS RS-) group, RS≥15%, and myelodysplastic syndrome with ring sideroblast ( MDS RS +) group, RS <15%. Then, according to the proportion of blasts in bone marrow nucleated cells above 5%or below, patients were further divided into myelodysplastic syndrome with low blasts without ring sideroblast ( MDS-LB RS-) group, myelodysplastic syndrome with low blasts and ring sideroblast ( MDS-LB RS+) group, refractory anemia with excess blast without ring sideroblast ( RAEB RS-) group and refractory anemia with excess blast and ring sideroblast ( RAEB RS+) groupe.All patients had completed the morphological , genetics , molecular biology examination at dignosis, and followed up by phone.The results of the overall survival (OS) analysis have been presented in a Kaplan-Meier curve and cox regression model .Last, according to the percentage of RS in nucleated red blood cell , patients were separated into RS <5%groupe, 5%-15%group, 15%-40%group, RS≥40%group, and analyse their survival prognosis by statistical methods .Results Comparing to MDS RS-group, the morbidity age, WBC and PLT count were significantly higher [61 ±1.91 vs 52 ±1.37, t=-3.555, P<0.01, 3.82(0.47-323)vs 2.6(0.6-59.7), z=-4.014, P<0.01;139.5(7-608) vs 60(3-724), z =-3.988, P<0.01], bone marrow eythroid hyperplasia and gigantocyte were more obvious in MDS RS+group[χ2 =11.032, P<0.01, χ2 =5.165, P<0.05]; the percentage of GATA1 gene and abnormal rate of poor prognosis gene ( MLL, NRAS, WT1 ) , either mutation or high gene expression , were higher in MDS-LB RS+group than that in MDS-LB RS-( P<0.05 ); Contrasting with RAEB RS-group, the karyotype is worse in RAEB RS +group[χ2 =4.966, P<0.05];Comparing to 15%-40%group, the OS were poorer in RS≥40%;MDS RS+patients were more prone to adverse prognosis than MDS RS-patients.Conclusion Compared to MDS RS-group, MDS RS +patients had worse prognosis;RS maybe correlate to morbidity age , eythroid dysplasia and gene abnormality in affecting the survival prognosis of MDS.
