Objective To investigate the serum levels of soluble CD23 ( sCD23 ) and thrombopeietin (TPO) in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and their correlation with other prognostic factors. Methods The serum levels of sCD23 and TPO of 25 CLL patients were detected with enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. Flow cytometry was employed to determine the expression of CD38 and ZAP-70 protein. Results TPO level in CLL patients was significantly higher than that in normal controls 67.22 - 1881.77 ng/L and 70. 29 - 147. 98 ng/L respectively, P =0. 003. sCD23 level in CLL patients was significantly higher than that in normal controls 129. 80-405. 31 U/ml and 0. 65 -32. 99 U/ml respectively, P =0. 000. TPO level was significantly correlated with Binet stage and CD38 expression. Patients in stage B and C had higher level of TPO than those in stage A 140. 57 -457.48 ng/L and 121.92 - 163.83 ng/L respectively, P =0.014,while TPO level was higher in patients with higher CD38 expression than in patients lower CD38 expression 113.23- 199. 10 ng/L and 141.34 -454. 92 ng/L respectively, P = 0. 033. No significant correlation of sCD23 and TPO levels with ZAP-70 protein, sex, age, peripheral lymphocyte count and lactate dehydrogenase were observed. Conclusion Serum TPO level might be a prognostic factor in CLL.

Objective: To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of other infectious diarrhea (OID) in Huzhou City, Zhejiang Province from 2013 to 2023, so as to provide the basis for formulating of prevention and control measures for OID. Methods: Data of OID in Huzhou City from 2013 to 2023 were collected from the Infectious Disease Reporting Information System of Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. Epidemiological and etiological characteristics of OID cases were analyzed using a descriptive epidemiological method. Results: A total of 111 455 cases of OID were reported in Huzhou City from 2013 to 2023, with an average annual reported incidence of 331.82/105, showing a decreasing trend (P<0.05). The peak incidence of OID was reported from July to August and from November to February of the following year, primarily due to bacterial and viral pathogens, respectively. Changxing County had the highest reported incidence of OID (660.62/105), while Anji County had the lowest (188.92/105). Among the reported cases, 58 259 were male and 53 196 were female, with a male-to-female ratio of 1.10∶1. The highest incidence was observed in children aged under 1 year (4 545.70/105). The majority of cases were scattered children, with 36 933 cases (33.14%). There were 22 639 cases with clear pathogens, and rotavirus was the most common, with 16 953 cases (74.88%). Conclusions The overall incidence of OID in Huzhou City showed a decreasing trend from 2013 to 2023. OID peaked in summer and winter and was primarily observed in children aged 1 year below and scattered children. Rotavirus infection was the dominant etiology.

Objective To investigate the incidence of trisomy 12(+12) and 11 q23 deletion [ del ( 11q23) ] in chronic lymphocyticleukemia (CLL). Methods Fluorescein labeled DNA probe 12 and sequence specific probe ATM for 11q23 were used to perform inter-phase fluorescence in situ hybridization (I-FISH) assays in 30 patients with CLL. The results were compared with that of conventional cyto-genetic (CC) examination. Results With CC examination , only 4 cases (13.3%) were found to have chromosomal abnormalities, whereaswith I-FISH assay ,8 cases (26.7%) were found to have genomic aberrations, including trisomy 12 in 5 cases , deletion of 11q23 in 3 ca-sea. Conclusion I-FISH is a useful method for detection of genomie aberration in CLL, the significance of trisomy 12 and del (11q23) inpredicting the prognosis of B-CLL need to be investigated further.

Objective To evaluate the safety, efficiency and feasibility of HLA-identical sibling using culture-expanded mesenchymal stem cells and hematopoietic stem cells in treatment for myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). Also to investigate for valid preventive measures to avoid the infection of HBV originated from donor. Methods A 46-years-old male patient with myelodysplastic syndrome-refractory anemia (MDSRA) got a cotransplantation of culture-expanded mensenchymal stem cells (MSC) and hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) from HLA-identical sibling donor (his sister) who was infected by hepatitis B virus (HBV). Some measures were applicated in order to avoid the recipient from getting a HBV infection. The antiviral therapy to the donor was began early at the time 1 month before transplant, and HBV vaccine inoculation was used 2 month before transplant. High titer of anti-hepatis B immunoglobulin was used 1 week before transplant and 1 month after transplant the use of prophylactic anti-hepatis B drug treatment was begun. A non-myeloablative preparative regimen included fludarabine monophosphate (Flu, 120 mg/m2), cyclophosphamide (Cy, 1200 mg/m2)and antithymocyte globulin (ATG, 15 mg/kg) was given to him before culture-expanded mesenchymal stem cell and allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell from his HLA-matched sister. Results The regimen was well tolerated, and hemopoiesis was reconstituted on day 10 after transplant, idiochromosome detected by fluorescent in situ hybridization on day 30 showed XY 47/300 and on day 90 it was 7/300. No evidence of HBV infection was detected on day 60 after transplant. Conclusion The clinical course of this patient indicate that HLA-identical sibling culture-expanded mesenchymal stem cell transplantation combined with non-myeloablative stem cell transplantation can be an effective and safe approach in treatment of MDS.

Objective: To monitor the adverse events following immunization (AEFI) with combined attenuated live measles, mumps and rubella vaccines (MMR) in Huzhou City from 2015 to 2021, so as to provide insights into the implementation of the MMR immunization strategy. Methods: All AEFI caused by MMR immunization in Huzhou City from 2015 to 2021 were captured from the AEFI Monitoring Information Management System of the Immunization Planning System of Chinese Disease Control and Prevention Information System, and the incidence, clinical features and epidemiological features of AEFI were analyzed descriptively. Results: The reported incidence of AEFI caused by MMR immunization appeared a tendency towards a rise in Huzhou City from 2015 to 2021 (χ2trend=124.126, P<0.001). Totally 324 386 doses of MMR vaccines were immunized, and 317 cases with AEFI were reported, with an reported incidence rate of 9.77/104 doses. Following two-dose immunization, the reported incidence of AEFI caused by two-dose MMR immunization was significantly lower than by one-dose immunization (6.01/104 doses vs. 25.43/104 doses; χ2=113.692, P<0.001). The incidence rates of general reactions, abnormal reactions and coincidental events were 6.20/104 doses, 3.42/104 dose and 0.15/104 doses, respectively. Fever and allergic rash were predominant clinical manifestations of AEFI, and no vaccine quality accident, inoculation accident or psychogenic reaction were reported. There were 246 (77.60%) cases with AEFI within 24 hours following vaccination, and among children with AEFI, there were 173 boys (54.57%), and 200 children (63.09%) age ages of less than one year (63.09%). AEFI was reported in each quarter, and 99 cases (31.23%) were reported in the fourth quarter. The largest number of children with AEFI was reported in Wuxing District (78 cases, 24.61%). Conclusions The safety of MMR vaccination is high in Huzhou City. General reaction is the predominant AEFI, which mainly occurs within 24 hours following vaccination. Two-dose MMR vaccination does not increase the risk of AEFI.
