Objective? To study the clinical observation and nursing strategies for myelosuppression caused by induction chemotherapy for stage Ⅲ and stage Ⅳ laryngeal and hypopharyngeal cancers. Methods? The clinical data of 8 patients admitted during March 2015 to June 2017 who developed myelosuppression after induction chemotherapy using taxol + cisplatin + fluorouracil (TPF) were retrospectively analyzed for nursing strategies. Key nursing strategies included in the analysis were basic care, psychological care, condition observation and monitoring, medication care, infection prevention, infection management, prevention and treatment of anemia and bleeding, diet care and activity care. Results? After induction chemotherapy, 8 out of 15 (53.33%) stage Ⅲ and stage Ⅳ laryngeal and hypopharyngeal cancer patients developed myelosuppression, among which 3 patients showedⅢ-Ⅳ degree myelosuppression. Granulocyte colony stimulating factor (CSF) was administered by intramuscular injection to manage reduced granulocyte level in 2 cases. The granulocyte level in both patients went back to normal after 3-5 days. Platelet and recombinant human thrombopoietin were administered by intravenous injection to manage reduced platelet in 1 case. The platelet level of the patient started to increase after 3 days. All patients successfully recovered from myelosuppression before being discharged. Conclusions? For stageⅢ and stageⅣ laryngeal and hypopharyngeal cancer patients who developed myelosuppression after chemotherapy, enhanced basic care, psychological care and close observation of condition developments are essential to the patients' smooth recovery from myelosuppression.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the monitoring of tacrolimus blood concentration in patients with nephrotic syndrome (NS),and to establish a prediction model for tacrolimus blood concentration. METHODS Data from 509 concentration monitoring sessions of 166 NS patients using tacrolimus were collected from January 1, 2020 to August 31, 2023 in Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Xiamen University. The relationship of efficacy and adverse drug reaction(ADR) with blood concentration was analyzed. A multilayer perceptron (MLP) prediction model was established by using the blood concentration monitoring data of 302 times from 109 NS patients with genetic information, and then verified. RESULTS In terms of efficacy, the median blood concentration of tacrolimus in the non-remission group was 2.20 ng/mL, which was significantly lower than that in the partial remission group (4.00 ng/mL, P<0.001) and the complete remission group (3.60 ng/mL, P=0.002). In terms of ADR, the median blood concentration of tacrolimus in the ADR group was 5.01 ng/mL, which was significantly higher than that in the non-ADR group (3.37 ng/mL) (P=0.001). According to the subgroup analysis of the receiver operating characteristic curve, when the blood concentration of tacrolimus was ≥6.65 ng/mL, patients were more likely to develop elevated blood creatinine [area under the curve (AUC) was 0.764, P<0.001); when the blood concentration of tacrolimus was ≥6.55 ng/mL, patients were more likely to develop blood glucose (AUC=0.615, P= 0.005). The established MLP prediction model has a loss function of 0.9, with an average absolute error of 0.279 5 ng/mL between the predicted and measured values. The determination coefficient of the validation scatter plot was 0.984, indicating an excellent predictive performance of the model. CONCLUSION Tacrolimus blood concentration has an impact on both efficacy and ADR in NS patients. The use of the MLP model for predicting blood concentration exhibits high accuracy with minimal error between predicted and measured values. The model can be used as an important tool in clinical individualized medication regimens.
