Two cases of incomplete regression of ventral mesogastrium were reported. Their nomenclature, etiology, symptoms and characteristic roentgenologic findings were discussed in relation to anatomical study. Because of its unique etiology and symptoms, charecteristic roentgenologic findings, and effectual remedy, it is suggested that this disease should be distinguished from "abnormal adhesion of fibrous bands" as an independent anomaly called incomplete regression of ventral mesogastrium. The roentgenological findings were: An incisure was found in the upper portion of pars descendens duodeni. It sank deeply and reduced two thirds of the normal diameter of the intestinal lumen to form an eccentrie intestinal stenosis. The intestinal lumen, near the inner border of the incisure was smooth, and there was no sign of serrated image formed by intestinal mucosa. The part of intestinal lumen was not distended in hypotonic radiography. All the above signs were caused by the traction and binding of the nonregressed mesogastrium.

Objective:To analyze the characteristics of the apolipoprotein E(Apo E)genotype and cognitive impairment in patients with cerebral microbleeds(CMBs)and positive β-amyloid(Aβ)by using [18F]-AV45 positron emission tomography(PET).Methods:From September 2015 to May 2018, 152 patients with cognitive impairment and CMBs on the susceptibility-weighted imaging(SWI)sequence of head MRI at the neurology department of our hospital, assessed by mini-mental status examination(MMSE)score ≤26 and Montreal cognitive assessment(MoCA)≤25, were consecutively recruited in this retrospective study.After assessment with the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 69 patients aged 68.8±9.3 years were considered eligible for further analysis.Patients were divided into the Aβ-positive group(Aβ + Group, n=37)and the Aβ-negative group(Aβ -Group, n=32)after cognitive assessment, ApoE genotyping and [18F]-AV45 PET examination.Twenty-one healthy elderly controls(HC Group)who took health examination during the same period were enrolled.The results of cognitive assessment and Apo E genotyping were compared between the three groups. Results:The positive rate of the ApoE ε4 allele was 35.6%(32/90), 56.8%(21/37), 18.8%(6/32), and 23.9%(5/21)in the Aβ + , Aβ -and HC groups, respectively, with statistical significant differences between the groups( χ2=12.467, P<0.01). There were significant differences in the positive rate of the ApoE ε4 allele between the Aβ + and HC groups and between the Aβ + and Aβ -groups( χ2=5.880 and 10.407, P<0.05 and P<0.01). The percentage of patients with deep cerebral microbleeds was higher(56.3% or 18/32 vs.8.1% or 3/37, χ2=18.784, P<0.01)and of patients with lobar hemorrhage was lower(12.5% or 4/32 vs.45.9% or 17/37, χ2=9.066, P<0.01)in the Aβ -group than in the Aβ + group, while there was no significant difference in the percentage of patients with mixed cerebral microbleeds between the Aβ -and Aβ + groups( χ2=1.556, P>0.05). There were significant differences in cognitive function between the Aβ + and HC groups, in memory, executive function, visuospatial ability and language between the Aβ + and Aβ -groups, and in executive function, visuospatial ability and attention between the Aβ -and HC groups. Conclusions:Cognitive impairment is more extensive and severe in CMBs patients with Aβ deposition and is associated with positive ApoE ε4.

Objective:To explore the occurrence and risk factors of interstitial pneumonia (IP) in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) after the treatment of CHOP-like regimens containing liposomal doxorubicin.Methods:The clinical data of 145 newly diagnosed and newly treated DLBCL patients who were admitted to the Affiliated Tumor Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University from January 2013 to June 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, of which 73 cases were treated with RCDOP regimen containing liposomal doxorubicin, and 72 cases were treated with RCHOP regimen. The incidence of IP was compared between the two groups, and the risk factors of IP were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression.Results:In 145 patients, 34 patients (23.4%) developed IP; most cases of IP occurred during 3 to 5 cycles of chemotherapy, accounting for 79.4% (27/34); when IP occurred, the median cycles of chemotherapy was 4 cycles. The incidence of IP in RCDOP regimen group and RCHOP regimen group were 31.5% (23/73) and 15.3% (11/72), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 5.319, P < 0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the application of liposomal doxorubicin ( OR = 2.416, 95% CI 1.059-5.509, P = 0.036) and age ≥60 years old ( OR = 2.505, 95% CI 1.127-5.567, P = 0.024) were independent risk factors for the occurrence of IP. Conclusions:The application of liposomal doxorubicin is a risk factor for the occurrence of IP in DLBCL patients. The prevention and monitoring of IP should be strengthened after 4 cycles of treatment with RCDOP regimen, especially for patient ≥ 60 years of age.

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.
