Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of midazolam combined with dexmedetomidine for sedation during magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)examination in children.Methods The medical records of children who underwent sedated MRI examinations at the Sedation Center of Children's Hospital Affiliated to Shandong University from August 2021 to July 2022 were collected.The patients were divided into three groups based on age:Infant group(age≤1 year old,922 cases),toddler group(1 year old

Objective:To evaluate the pharmacodynamics of remimazolam tosilate inducing loss of consciousness (LOC) when combined with sufentanil in children.Methods:American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classificationⅠ or Ⅱ pediatric patients of either sex, aged 3-6 yr, undergoing electronic bronchoscopy, were included in this study. ECG monitoring was carried out in all children after admission, sufentanil 0.1 μg/kg was intravenously injected slowly, and 3 min later remidazolam tosilate was intravenously injected. The dose of remimazolam tosilate was determined by the modified Dixon′s up-and-down sequential experiment, and the initial dose of remimazolam tosilate was 0.30 mg/kg. The dose of remimazolam tosilate in the next child was determined according to the the loss of consciousness, and the successive dose gradient was 0.05 mg/kg. Loss of eyelash reflex and Modified Observer′s Assessment of Alertness/Sedation Scale score reaching 0 and the occurrence of 8 crossover points where consciousness transitioned from non-disappearance to disappearance after 1 min of remimazolam tosilate injection were considered to be signs of LOC. The median effective dose (ED 50), 95% effective dose (ED 95), and their 95% confidence interval ( CI) of remimazolam tosilate inducing LOC were calculated using probit method. Results:When combined with sufentanil, the ED 50 and 95% CI of remimazolam tosilate inducing loss of consciousness were 0.461 (0.429-0.493) mg/kg, and the ED 95 and 95% CI were 0.515 (0.487-0.689) mg/kg. Conclusions:When combined with sufentanil, the ED 50 of remimazolam tosilate inducing LOC is 0.461 mg/kg and the ED 95 is 0.515 mg/kg in children.

Objective:To explore the value of multi-gene copy number variation (CNV) analysis in the clinical prognostic prediction of patients with multiple myeloma (MM).Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted. The clinical data of 79 MM patients who were admitted to the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University from June 2016 to March 2023 were collected. The whole-genome CNV status was obtained by using whole-genome low depth sequencing (sWGS) of bone marrow blood cells. The outcomes of remission, minimal residual disease (MRD) turning negative, progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in patients with and without CNV were compared. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to analyze the influencing factors of PFS and OS.Results:Among the 79 patients with MM, 43 were males and 36 were females. The median age [ M ( Q1, Q3)] was 65 years old (55 years old, 71 years old). In the revised international staging system, there were 20, 51 and 8 cases in stage Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ, respectively. The results of fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) were abnormal in 17 cases. CNV was detected in 55 patients (69.6%), and the abnormality of chromosome 1q (27 cases, 49.1%) was the most frequently detected, followed by the abnormality of chromosome 13 (26 cases, 47.3%), chromosome 6 (22 cases, 40.0%), chromosome 11 (19 cases, 34.5%), chromosome 8 (18 cases, 32.7%), chromosome 14 (14 cases, 25.5%), and chromosome 17 (11 cases, 20.0%). The ≥ very good partial remission rate in the detected CNV group was lower than that in the undetected CNV group [29.1% (16/55) vs. 45.8% (11/24)], but the difference was not statistically significant ( χ2 = 2.08, P = 0.149). The MRD negative conversion rate of detected CNV group was lower than that of undetected CNV group [21.8% (12/55) vs. 58.3% (14/24)], and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 10.09, P = 0.001). Survival analysis showed that PFS in the detected CNV group was worse than in the undetected CNV group [median PFS time: 36.7 months (95% CI: 6.1-67.4 months) vs. not reached], and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( χ2 = 6.61, P = 0.010), while the difference in OS between the two groups was not statistically significant ( χ2 = 1.84, P = 0.175). There was no significant difference in PFS and OS between patients with 1 and ≥2 abnormal copy sequences (both P > 0.05). PFS of patients with CNV on chromosomes 1q, 17, 8, 11 and 13 was worse than that of patients without CNV at these sites (all P < 0.05), while there was no statistical difference in OS (all P > 0.05). Results of univariate analysis showed that lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level was correlated with PFS and OS of patients (both P < 0.05), and CNV was correlated with PFS of patients (P = 0.010). Results of multivariate analysis showed that LDH > 250 U/L was an independent factor for poor PFS and OS of patients ( HR = 0.135, 95% CI: 0.019-0.983, P = 0.048; HR = 0.132, 95% CI: 0.018-0.951, P = 0.045). Conclusions:Multi-gene CNV analysis can assist in predicting the prognosis of MM patients, and it is more sensitive than traditional CNV detection methods such as FISH. Patients with CNV on chromosomes 1q, 17, 8, 11, and 13 have poor prognosis.

Clinical data of 166 children with Meckel's diverticulum, who were treated with laparoscopic surgery in our center from January 2015 to January 2023, were retrospectively analyzed, including 69 cases receiving enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS group) and 97 cases with traditional perioperative care (control group). There were no significant differences in age ( t=1.391), gender ( χ2=1.067), body weight ( t=1.182 ), operation time ( t=1.093), diverticulum location ( Z=0.405), surgical procedures ( χ2=0.053), and intraoperative blood loss ( t=0.394) between two groups (all P>0.05). Compared to control group, ERAS group had shorter time for indwelling gastric tube (1.1±0.7 d vs.3.8±0.8 d), earlier postoperative feeding (2.5±0.6 d vs.4.9±0.7 d), less intravenous fluid infusion (3.9±1.0 d vs. 5.3±1.1 d), shorter length of hospital stay (8.2±1.6 d vs.10.9±2.3 d), and lower hospitalization expenditure (1.8±0.2)×10 4 yuan vs. (2.1±0.3)×10 4 yuan ( t=23.289,21.718,8.505,8.379,8.769,all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in incidence of postoperative complications between two groups ( χ2=0.431, P>0.05). The study indicates that patients treated with ERAS programmed laparoscopic Meckel's diverticulum surgery is safe and effective with rapid recovery and shorter hospital stay.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection in the treatment of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) in a real-world setting.Methods:This was a real-world ambispective cohort study (MOMENT study) (Chinese clinical trial registry number: ChiCTR2200062067). Clinical data were collected from 198 patients who received mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection as monotherapy or combination therapy at 37 hospitals from January 2022 to January 2023, including 166 patients in the retrospective cohort and 32 patients in the prospective cohort; 10 patients in the treatment-na?ve group and 188 patients in the relapsed/refractory group. Clinical characteristics, efficacy and adverse events were summarized, and the overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were analyzed.Results:All 198 patients were treated with mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection for a median of 3 cycles (range 1-7 cycles); 28 cases were treated with mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection as monotherapy, and 170 cases were treated with the combination regimen. Among 188 relapsed/refractory patients, 45 cases (23.9%) were in complete remission (CR), 82 cases (43.6%) were in partial remission (PR), and 28 cases (14.9%) were in disease stabilization (SD), and 33 cases (17.6%) were in disease progression (PD), with an objective remission rate (ORR) of 67.6% (127/188). Among 10 treatment-na?ve patients, 4 cases (40.0%) were in CR, 5 cases (50.0%) were in PR, and 1 case (10.0%) was in PD, with an ORR of 90.0% (9/10). The median follow-up time was 2.9 months (95% CI 2.4-3.7 months), and the median PFS and OS of patients in relapsed/refractory and treatment-na?ve groups were not reached. In relapsed/refractory patients, the difference in ORR between patients with different number of treatment lines of mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection [ORR of the second-line, the third-line and ≥the forth-line treatment was 74.4% (67/90), 73.9% (34/46) and 50.0% (26/52)] was statistically significant ( P = 0.008). Of the 198 PTCL patients, 182 cases (91.9%) experienced at least 1 time of treatment-related adverse events, and the incidence rate of ≥grade 3 adverse events was 66.7% (132/198), which was mainly characterized by hematologic adverse events. The ≥ grade 3 hematologic adverse events mainly included decreased lymphocyte count, decreased neutrophil count, decreased white blood cell count, and anemia; non-hematologic adverse events were mostly grade 1-2, mainly including pigmentation disorders and upper respiratory tract infection. Conclusions:The use of mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection-containing regimen in the treatment of PTCL has definite efficacy and is well tolerated, and it is a new therapeutic option for PTCL patients.

Objective: To explore the occurrence, clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment of glomerulitis after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Methods: Analysis were carried out based on the clinical data of 6 patients with de novo glomerulitis following allo-HSCT hospitalized in Henan Tumor Hospital from January 2008 to December 2016, and the clinical manifestation, pathology, diagnosis, treatment and outcome were investigated. Results: The occurrence of glomerulitis was 1.26% (6/478). The median time was 447(272-1 495) d after allo-HSCT. Proteinuria and varying degrees of edema were present in all patients. Of the 6 patients, 4 patients with impaired renal function, 3 cases of hypertension, 5 cases of urine occult blood positive, 2 cases of hyperlipidemia. 5 patients underwent acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), 4 patients accompanied with chronic GVHD at diagnosis. Kidney pathology showed typical features of minimal change diseases in 1 patient, membranous nephropathy in 4 patients and mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis in 1 case. Immunohistochemistry of glomerular lesions revealed that the immune complex deposition included IgG in 4 patients, C3 in 3 patients, IgM and C1q in 1 patient. Serum ANA was positive in 2 patients and serum IgG and IgM were in high level in 1 patient, respectively. Only 1 case was effective on glucocorticoid. 5 cases treated by low dose cyclophosphamide combined with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), 2 cases achieved complete remission, and 3 cases were partial remission. Up to now, 2 cases died with lung infection, and 4 patients survived. Conclusion The predominant pathological type of glomerulitis was membranous nephropathy. Low-dose cyclophosphamide combined with MMF was an effective treatment.

To explore the efficacy and influencing factors of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in patients with myeloid leukemia and granulocytic sarcoma (GS).Clinical outcome including hematopoietic reconstitution,transplant-related complications,survival and relapse were collected and retrospectively analyzed in 9 patients with myeloid leukemia and GS after allo-HSCT.Hematopoiesis reconstitution was achieved in all the 9 recipients.Four cases developed acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD),and 1 with chronic GVHD.The median follow-up time after transplantation was 10(4-81) months.Only 2 cases survived,the other 7 died of relapse.The median time of relapse after transplantation was 5(3-19) months.Allo-HSCT is relatively effective treatment for patients with myeloid leukemia and GS.Relapse after transplantation remains the major factor of mortality.

Objective To assess the effectiveness of unrelated donor (URD) allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in the treatment of severe aplastic anemia (SAA),and the difference between URD allo-HSCT and matched sibling donor (MSD) allo-HSCT.Methods According to the source of donors,the SAA patients subject to allo-HSCT were divided into MSD allo-HSCT group (MSD group) and URD allo-HSCT group (URD group) from October 2001 to December 2016 in Henan Cancer Hospital.The efficacy and transplantation related complications were compared between two groups.Results There were no statistically significant differences in hematopoietic reconstitution and graft rejection between two groups.The incidence of grade Ⅱ-Ⅳ acute GVHD and chronic GVHD was higher in the URD group than in the MSD group (30.76％ vs.8.57％,P =0.026;26.92％ vs.5.71％,P =0.021).However,other transplant-related complications including pulmonary complications and hemorrhagic cystitis,incidence of EBV and CMV reactivation and venous occlusive disease showed no significant difference between two groups.The estimated 5-year over survival was (73.6 ± 8.7) ％ in the MSD group and (72.7 ± 9.5) ％ in the URD group (P =0.878).There was no significant difference in 5-year disease-free survival between two groups (73.6 ± 8.7％ vs.70.3 ± 10.2,P =0.668).Conclusion URD-HSCT is a novel treatment approach and could be considered as first-line therapy in selected patients without MSD.

Objective To evaluate the safety of new-generation of antidepressants and amitriptyline in the treatment of depression in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD). Methods A total of 194 patients with first-episode depression with CHD were divided into amitriptyline group(n=40), venlafaxine group(n=40), mirtazapine group(n=48)and escitalo?pram group(n=66). The blood routine test, liver function, blood lipids and blood glucose (GLU) were monitored after treat?ment for six weeks, and which were compared before and after treatment. Results The levels of white blood cells (WBC) and neutrophil count (NE) were significantly lower in amitriptyline group after 6-week treatment (P<0.05), but the levels of acid alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), total cholesterol (T-CHO) and GLU were significant?ly increased after treatment than those before treatment (P<0.05). The levels of WBC, NE and GLU were significantly de?creased in venlafaxine group after 6-week treatment (P<0.05). The levels of ALT, AST, low density lipoprotein (LDL) were significantly increased in mirtazapine group after six-week treatment (P<0.05). In escitalopram group, the level of three ac?yl glycerin (TG) was significantly increased after six-week treatment than before treatment ( P<0.05). There was a signifi?cant difference in AST change after treatment between venlafaxine group and mirtazapine group (P<0.05). There was a sig?nificant decrease in WBC in amitriptyline group than that of mirtazapine group after six-week treatment ( P<0.05). There was a significant decrease in NE in amitriptyline group than that of mirtazapine group and escitalopram group ( P<0.05). The increase level of AST was significant higher in amitriptyline group than that of venlafaxine group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Three different kinds of new-generation of antidepressants have fewer influence in routine blood test, liver function, blood lipids and blood glucose than those of amitriptyline in the treatment of depression in patients with CHD.
