Objective To analyze inhibitions and working memory impairments in children with different subtypes of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) with saccade tasks. Methods Participants,aged 10~ 13 years with ADHD-combined ( n= 19) ,ADHD-inattentive ( n= 11 ) and control subjects ( n= 18) ,were selected according to DSM-Ⅳ diagnosis,Conners teacher rating scale and parent symptom questionnaire from 1500pupils from 2 primary schools in Jinhua city by stratified cluster sampling method. Participants performed 3 different saccade tasks: 1 prosaccade and 2 antisaccades executed in a single-task and a dual-task situation. One of the antisaccade tasks was performed under the verbal secondary task condition to investigate verbal working memory.Saccades were registered by Eyelink Ⅱ Tracker. Errors and correct rate were analyzed. One-way ANOVA and repeated measures ANOVA were used to analyze the data. Results (1) Each group showed more response suppression errors on antisaccade task without load than on prosaccade task, ADHD-combined and ADHD-inattentive exhibited more errors than non-ADHD (P<0.01) ,and errors was lower in ADHD-inattentive than in ADHD-combined ( ( 70.90 ± 15.78 ) % vs ( 84.04 ± 12.84 ) %, P < 0.05 ). (2) The interactions between group and load were not significant in error rate on antisaccade tasks (P > 0.05 ), but in correct rate (P < 0. 05 ). The two subtypes of ADHD were affected more than non-ADHD, their correct rates tended to decrease under verbal working memory load. Conclusion An integrative view of deficits in inhibition and verbal working memory in two subtypes of ADHD is proposed, and ADHD-inattentive has a better response suppression than ADHD-combined.

Background and purpose:The third generation of aromatase inhibitors (AI) in postmenopausal hormone receptor-positive patients is the routine treatments in endocrine therapy. The 500 mg fulvestrant showed clini-cal beneifts in patients with previous AI treatment. This study aimed to access the effcacy and safety of 500 mg fulves-trant in estrogen receptor (ER) positive postmenopausal patients who had previous AI treatments with locally advanced and metastatic breast cancer.Methods:This study retrospectively analyzed the clinical data from 188 post-AI ER positive and (or) progesterone receptor (PR)-positive locally advanced and metastatic breast cancer patients treated with 500 mg fulvestrant in Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center from Jul. 2011 to Dec. 2015. Primary end point was progression-free survival (PFS). Secondary end points were objective response rate (ORR), clinical beneift rate (CBR) and safety proifle.Results:After the median follow-up of 11.3 months, median PFS was 5.9 months (95%CI: 4.2-7.5), CBR was 40.0% and ORR was 3.4%. COX proportional hazards regression analysis indicated that PFS was correlated with the number of metastatic sites (HR=1.92, 95% CI: 1.2-2.9,P =0.002) and previous lines of chemotherapy (HR=1.52, 95%CI:1.0-2.1,P=0.022). Six patients stopped the treatment for intolerable adverse events.Conclusion:The treatment of 500 mg fulvestrant has a favorable effcacy and safety in treatment of post-AI ER positive postmenopausal patientswith metastatic breast cancer.

Purpose:
Pyrotinib is a newly-developed irreversible pan-ErbB receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor. This study reported the first real-world data of pyrotinib-based therapy in metastatic human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-positive breast cancer (BC), focusing on efficacy in lapatinib-treated patients and in brain metastasis.
Materials and Methods:
One hundred thirteen patients with metastatic HER2-positive BC treated with pyrotinib-based therapy in Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center under non-clinical trial settings from September 1, 2018 to March 1, 2019 were included.
Results:
Over half patients have received more than two lines of systematic therapy and exposed to two or more kinds of anti-HER2 agents. Most patients received a combined therapy, commonly of pyrotinib plus capecitabine, or vinorelbine or trastuzumab. Median progression-free survival (PFS) was 6.3 months (range, 5.54 to 7.06 months) and objective response rate (ORR) was 29.5%, with two patients (1.9%) achieving complete response. Lapatinib-naïve patients had significantly longer PFS than lapatinib-treated patients (9.0 months vs. 5.4 months, p=0.001). ORR for lapatinib-treated patients was 23.2%. Thirty-one of 113 patients have brain metastasis. Median PFS was 6.7 months and intracranial ORR was 28%. For patients without concurrent radiotherapy and/or brain surgery, the ORR was very low (6.3%). But for patients receiving concurrent radiotherapy and/or brain surgery, the ORR was 66.7%, and three patients achieved complete response. Most common adverse event was diarrhea.
Conclusion
Pyrotinib-based therapy demonstrated promising effects in metastatic HER2-positive BC and showed activity in lapatinib-treated patients. For patients with brain metastasis, pyrotinib-based regimen without radiotherapy showed limited efficacy, but when combined with radiotherapy it showed promising intracranial control.

Drug-induced immune hemolytic anemia (DIIHA) is a rare cytopenia caused by damage to RBCs by drug-induced antibodies or non-immune protein adsorption (NIPA). The drugs associated with DIIHA and the mechanistic hypotheses that are thought to be involved have been controversial, with complex serological tests often required by specialized Immune Hematology laboratories for diagnosis. It is necessary to know the clinical manifestation and laboratory diagnosis of DIIHA in order to distinguish the immuno-hematological abnormality caused by drugs from other causes. How to improve the diagnostic ability of DIIHA and establish a scientific and reasonable idea of DIIHA serological examination is urgent to help clinical diagnosis and correct treatment.
