Objective To investigate the effects of anti-HLA donor-specific antibodies(DSA)and desensitization for DSA+patients on engraftment of haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(haplo-HSCT).Methods The patients who underwent haplo-HSCT and examinations for HLA antibodies and DSA in our department from March 2017 to July 2023 were recruited in this study.The effects of desensitization measure on engraftment in the DSA+patients after haplo-HSCT were analyzed.Results Among the 70 patients who underwent haplo-HSCT and test for HLA antibodies,15(21.4％)patients were DSA positive,including 7(46.7％)cases of strong positive,3(20.0％)cases of moderate positive,and 5(33.3％)cases of weak positive.The median duration for neutrophil implantation was significantly extended in the DSA+patients than the negative patients(P=0.027).For the 6 patients developed graft failure(GF),4 were DSA+which was statistically higher than the DSA-patients(P=0.025).Multivariate regression analysis showed that DSA was an independent factor affecting GF(HR=9.273,95％CI:1.505～57.124,P=0.016).Among the 10 patients(7 strong positive and 3 moderate positive DSA)received desensitization therapy,4 patients received combination desensitization,with a 100％rate of successful transplantation,and 6 received single desensitization,with 4(66.7％)experiencing GF,so the GF rate was obviously lower in the combination than the single desensitization(P=0.008).Conclusion In haplo-HSCT patients,DSA is an important factor leading to implantation delay and GF.While,single desensitization treatment has limited efficacy.In combined DSA desensitization therapy,the decrease of antibody titer should be dynamically monitored to ensure the successful implantation of stem cells and reduce GF rate.

Objective To study the application value of ultrasound(US) examination for evaluating the knee joint status in the patients with hemophilia.Methods The US examination data of 44 patients (70 knee joints) with hemophilia were collected,among them 11 cases aged below 18 years old,16 knee joints completed the MRI examination,meanwhile the knee joint health status was evaluated by adopting the 2.1 version of hemophilia joint health assessment (HJHS) form.Then the correlation between the US score with the age and bleeding times and the relation between MRI score with HJHS score were analyzed.Results The severity of hemophilia arthropathy had no obvious correlation with hemophilia severity (F=0.013,P =0.987).With the age increase and bleeding frequency increase,the knee joint lesion was aggravated.The detection of early synovial thickening and cartilage change in arthropathy had no obvious difference between US and MRI examinations(P＞0.05);the obvious correlation existed among US score,MRI score and HJHS (P＜0.05).Conclusion US has an important significance for the early diagnosis of hemophilic arthropathy.

Objective:To compare the alveolar cortical bone density and thickness of jaw bones between teenagers (12-18 years of age) and adults(19-48 years of age).Methods:Spiral computed tomographic images of 60 cases were obtained from the subjects with the ages of 12 to 48 years(27 Males and 33 females,35 teenagers and 25 adults).Buccal cortical bone thickness and density in Hounsfield units were measured at 12 interradicular sites and to a depth of 14 mm.Results:The alveolar cortical bone thicknesses and densities of the jaw bones significantly increased from the crest to base of alveolar crest.The average cortical bone thicknesses rangedfrom 1.0 to 1.5 mm in the anterior part of the jaw bones,1.1 to 1.8 mm in maxillary posterior area and 1.5 to 2.8 mm in the mandible posterior areas.The cortical bone thickness and density were greater in the mandible than in the maxilla(P ＜ 0.05).The thickness values did not show difference between males and females,between adolescents and adults.Higher values of bone density were found in the adults than in the teenagers(P ＜0.05).The highest bone density in the mandible posterior area of adults was observed,and the lowest bone density in the maxillary posterior area of adolescents.Conclusion:Alveolar cortical bone density of adolescents is lower than that of adults,especially in the maxilla posterior region.

Objective To investigate the role of thrombelastography(TEG) in assessing the risk of bleeding and diagnostic value in patients with acute leukemia(AL) .Methods The TEG and PLT data were counted in 127 patients(272 sets of data) who were diagnosed with AL .Those patients were divided into two groups :group 1 (including patients with bleeding) and group 2 (in‐cluding patients with no bleeding) .The indicators(R values ,K values ,α‐angle ,MA values)and PLT count were compared between two groups .Those data with PLT<30 × 109/L of these two groups also were divided and the 4 indicators of TEG were compared between the two groups .We used the ROC curve to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity in assessing the risk of bleeding .Results According to the data in total ,the K value ,R value of the group 1 were higher than those of the group 2(P<0 .05);theα‐angle and MA value ,PLT counts of group 1 were lower than those of the group 2(P<0 .05) .In those AL patients whose PLT<30 × 109/L ,the K value of the group 1 was higher than that of the group 2(P<0 .05);theα‐Angle and MA value of the group 1 were lower than those of the group 2(P<0 .05);R values and PLT count were not different between the two groups(P>0 .05);the are‐as under the ROC curve about the PLT counts ,MA value andα‐angle were more than 0 .5 (0 .750 ,0 .740 and 0 .653) .Conclusion T EG could predict the risk of bleeding in acute leukemia patients and it could be used in clinical application .

Objective To investigate the status of nutritional risk and nutritional support in general surgery patients, and to explore their association with postoperative complications and length of hospital stay.Methods From January 2014 to February 2015, 853 inpatients in general surgical wards in the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University were enrolled.Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS 2002) was used to estimate nutritional status of patients.The patients were divided into 2 groups based on whether they received nutritional support.The length of hospital stay in days and postoperative complications were recorded.The association of nutritional risk and nutritional support with complications and length of hospital stay were analyzed.Results In the 853 surgery patients, the prevalence of nutritional risk was 31.1％ (265/853) and that of malnutrition was 5.4％ (46/853).The incidence of postoperative complications was 14.2％ (121/853).The patients with nutritional risk had a significantly higher incidence of postoperative complications compared to those without nutritional risk [29.8％ (79/265) vs.7.1％ (42/588) , P ＜ 0.000] , and a longer hospital stay [(12.5 ±6.4) days vs.(4.2 ±3.9) days, P ＜0.001].In the 853 patients, 27.3％ (233/853) received nutrition support.In the patients with nutritional risk, those on nutritional support had a significantly lower incidence of complications compared with those not on nutritional support [16.7％ (32/192) vs.64.4％ (47/73), P＜0.05] and shorter hospital stay [(7.5±4.6) days vs.(16.3±8.5)days, P ＜ 0.05].Conclusions According to NRS 2002 result, a fairly high percentage of general surgery patients may have nutritional risk.Patients with decreased body mass, less dietary intake, and at higher age may be more likely to have nutritional risk.Nutritional risk may be associated with a higher incidence of postoperative complications and longer hospital stay.Patients at nutritional risk appear to be more likely to benefit from nutritional support.
