Objective:To observe the efficacy and safety of letermovir in preventing cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) .Method:From September 2022 to September 2023, retrospective analysis was conducted for the relevant clinical data of 50 recipients of allo-HSCT at First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University Hospital. Letermovir prophylaxis was offered for preventing cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation post-transplantation. They were historically compared with previous patients at the same center without letermovir prophylaxis. The incidence of CMV reactivation, overall survival rate, engraftment status and other adverse events within 100 days post-transplant were compared between two groups. Propensity score matching (PSM) was utilized for controlling confounding factors. Univariate analyses were performed with t and chi-square tests while survival analysis conducted with Kaplan-Meier method.Result:In letermovir group, CMV reactivation was detected in 3 cases (6%) versus 23 cases (46%) in control group. Letermovir significantly reduced the incidence of post-transplant CMV reactivation ( P<0.01). Within Day 100 post-transplant, there was one death in letermovir group with an overall survival rate of 98%. In control group, three deaths occurred with an overall survival rate of 94%. The median survival time of deceased cases was 64 (58-81) day. No statistically significant inter-group difference existed in overall survival rate ( P=0.617). In letermovir group, secondary implantation failure was observed in 3 cases (6%) and it was lower than 12 cases (24%) in control group. Statistically significant inter-group difference existed in secondary implantation failure rate ( P=0.023). However, regarding timing of neutrophil engraftment ( P=0.054) and platelet engraftment ( P=0.649), there were no significant inter-group statistical differences. Hemorrhagic cystitis (HC) occurred in letermovir group (17 cses, 34%) and control group (27cases, 54%). The incidence of HC was significantly lower in letermovir group than that in control group ( P=0.044). However, no statistically significant inter-group difference existed in the incidence of post-transplant EBV infection or acute graft-versus-host disease. Conclusion:Letermovir may significantly lower the incidence of cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation after allo-HSCT. It is both effective and safe for preventing CMV disease and improving early outcomes.

Objective:To investigate the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) of pulse oximetry among pediatric healthcare providers in China and analyze the factor influencing the KAP.Methods:A self-developed questionnaire was used for an online research on the KAP of 11 849 pediatric healthcare providers from 31 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities of China from March 11 to 14, 2022.The factors influencing the KAP of pulse oximetry among pediatric healthcare providers were examined by Logistic regression. Results:The scores of KAP, of pulse oximetry were 5.57±0.96, 11.24±1.25 and 11.19±4.54, respectively.The corresponding scoring rates were 69.61%, 74.95%, and 55.99%, respectively. Logistic regression results showed that the gender and working years of pediatric healthcare providers, the region they were located, and whether their medical institution was equipped with pulse oximeters were the main factors affecting the knowledge score (all P<0.05). Main factors influencing the attitude score of pediatric healthcare providers included their knowledge score, gender, educational background, working years, region, medical institution level, and whether the medical institution was equipped with pulse oximeters (all P<0.05). For the practice score, the main influencing factors were the knowledge score, gender, age, and whether the medi-cal institution was equipped with pulse oximeters (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Chinese pediatric healthcare providers need to further improve their knowledge about and attitudes towards pulse oximetry.Pulse oximeters are evidently under-used.It is urgent to formulate policies or guidelines, strengthen education and training, improve knowledge and attitudes, equip more institutions with pulse oximeters, and popularize their application in medical institutions.
