Intravascular large B-cell lymphoma (IVLBCL), a rare subtype of non-Hodgkin lymphoma, is classified as an independent subtype of extranodal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) in the 2008 World Health Organization (WHO) Classification (Turner et al., 2010). The 5th edition of the World Health Organization (WHO 2022) classification of hematolymphoid tumors retains this subtype (Alaggio et al., 2022). IVLBCL, which is characterized by neoplastic lymphocyte proliferation within the lumen of small blood vessels, tends to invade organs, such as the nervous system, skin, bone marrow (BM), and lung (D'Angelo et al., 2019; Satoh et al., 2019; Vásquez et al., 2019; Fukami et al., 2020).

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics of first-episode and recurrent acute hypertriglyceridemic pancreatitis (HTGP).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was con-ducted. The clinical data of 313 patients with HTGP admitted to 26 medical centers in China in the Chinese Acute Pancreatitis Clinical Research Group (CAPCTG)-PERFORM database from November 2020 to December 2021 were collected. There were 219 males and 94 females, aged 38(32,44)years. Of the 313 patients, 193 patients with first-episode HTGP were allocated into the first-episode group and 120 patients with recurrent HTGP were allocated into the recurrent group. Observation indica-tors: (1) propensity score matching and comparison of general data of patients between the two groups after matching; (2) comparison of severity and prognosis in the course of disease within 14 days between the two groups; (3) the association between recurrent HTGP and the risk of persistent organ failure (POF); (4) follow-up. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the independent sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Wilcoxon rank sum test. Count data were expressed as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the Wilcoxon rank sum test. The Kaplan-Meier method was used to plot the cumulative recurrence rate curve and Log-Rank test was used for survival analysis. The Logistic regression model was used for multivariate analysis, and continuous variables were converted into categorical variables according to the mean value or common criteria. Propensity score matching was performed by 1∶1 nearest neighbor matching method, with caliper value of 0.02. Paired t test or Wilcoxon rank sum test and McNemar′s test were used for comparison between matched groups. Results:(1) Propensity score matching and comparison of general data of patients between the two groups after matching. Of the 313 patients,208 cases were successfully matched, including 104 cases in the first-episode group and 104 cases in the recurrent group. After propensity score matching, there was no significant difference in demographic characteristics, severity of illness scores and laboratory test between the two groups ( P>0.05). The elimination of gender, acute physiology and chornic health evaluation (APACHE) Ⅱ score, computed tomography severity index score, systemic inflammatory response syndrome score, sequential organ failure assessment score, apolipoprotein E, C-reactive protein, creatinine, lactic acid dehydrogenase, procal-citonin confounding bias ensured comparability between the two groups. (2) Comparison of severity and prognosis in the course of disease within 14 days between the two groups. There were signifi-cant differences in POF and local complications between the first-episode group and the recurrent group ( P<0.05). (3) The association between recurrent HTGP and the risk of POF. Results of uncor-rected univariate analysis showed that there was no association between recurrent HTGP and the risk of POF ( odds ratio=0.78, 95% confidence interval as 0.46-1.30, P>0.05). Results of multivariate analysis after adjusting for covariates such as gender, age, APACHE Ⅱ score, C-reactive protein, triglyceride and total cholesterol showed that compared with first-episode HTGP, recurrent HTGP was associated with a higher risk of POF ( odds ratio=2.22, 95% confidence interval as 1.05-4.71, P<0.05). Results of subgroup analysis showed that age<40 years was associated with an increased risk of POF ( odds ratio=3.31, 95% confidence interval as 1.09-10.08, P<0.05). (4) Follow-up. Twelve of the 313 patients died during hospitalization, including 9 cases in the first-episode group and 3 cases in the recurrent group. The rest of 301 surviving patients, including 184 cases in the first-episode group and 117 cases in the recurrent group, were followed up for 19.2(15.5, 21.9)months. Results of follow-up showed that for 184 survived patients of the first-episode group, 164 cases were followed up and 24 cases experienced recurrence, for 117 survived patients of the recurrent group,29 cases experienced recurrence, showing a significant difference between the two groups ( χ2=4.67, P<0.05). Conclusion:Compared with first-episode HTGP, patients with recurrent HTGP are more prone to POF and local complications, and are more prone to recurrence after discharge. The risk of POF in recurrent HTGP patients is 2.22 times that of those with first-episode, and the risk is higher in patients with age <40 years.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and prognosis of CLAG±DAC (Clofarabine, Cytarabine, G-CSF±Decitabine) chemotherapy in patients with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (R/R AML) .Methods:Continuous cases of R/R AML treated with the CLAG+DAC protocol or CLAG alone at the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2017 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The baseline characteristics, individual treatment regimen, treatment effect, disease progression, and survival status of patients were recorded. The factors influencing the efficacy of the CLAG±DAC chemotherapy regimens were analyzed, and the overall survival (OS) time after reinduction was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method.Results:This study included a total of 53 patients, with 33 male patients and an average age of 40.6 years. Thirty-three patients achieved complete remission (CR+CRi) of the disease after the CLAG±DAC chemotherapy regimen and six patients achieved partial remission (PR), while 14 did not. Thirty-two patients eventually underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and the median OS of the patients was 55.9 months until follow-up. Patients with disease remission after the application of the CLAG±DAC chemotherapy had a significantly longer survival time than those without remission ( P<0.001). The results of the multifactorial analysis have revealed that combined DAC ( OR=4.60, 95% CI 1.14-23.5, P=0.04) and DNMT3A mutation ( OR=0.14, 95% CI 0.01-0.89, P=0.05) were the factors influencing the efficacy of the CLAG±DAC chemotherapy regimen. The remission rate was relatively higher in patients with R/R AML combined with FLT3-ITD mutation by applying the DAC+CLAG regimen ( OR=10.84, 95% CI 1.48-288.50, P=0.04) . Conclusion:The CLAG±DAC regimen is considered effective in patients with R/R AML, whereas decitabine combined with the CLAG regimen is more suitable for patients with R/R AML combined with FLT3-ITD mutation.

Objective:To evaluate the predictive value of neutrophil free fatty acid receptor 3 (FFAR3) for secondary infection in patients with severe acute pancreatitis (SAP).Methods:① Biological information analysis: peripheral blood microarray data sets related to acute pancreatitis (GSE194331) were obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), including data from 32 healthy adults, 52 patients with mild acute pancreatitis, 20 patients with moderate-to-severe acute pancreatitis, and 10 patients with SAP. The original data of GSE194331 dataset were downloaded for quality control, pruning, quantification, annotation and difference analysis, and the different genes were obtained. ② Clinical study: a prospective observational study was conducted. Forty-five SAP patients admitted to the critical care medicine department of the Eastern Theater Command General Hospital of the Chinese People's Liberation Army from January to November 2022 were enrolled, and they were divided into infected group and non-infected group according to whether secondary infection occurred during intensive care unit (ICU) stay. At the same time, 10 healthy adult volunteers were enrolled as control. Peripheral blood of subjects in each group was collected, neutrophils were isolated, and FFAR3 mRNA expression was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Spearman correlation method was used to analyze the correlation between neutrophil FFAR3 mRNA expression and secondary infection in SAP patients. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate whether neutrophil FFAR3 mRNA expression was a risk factor for secondary infection in SAP patients. Receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was plotted to evaluate the predictive value of neutrophil FFAR3 mRNA expression on secondary infection in SAP patients.Results:① Results of biological information analysis: the analysis of GSE194331 dataset showed that 301 genes were differentially expressed in peripheral blood cells between healthy controls and patients with pancreatitis. By biological function analysis, 8 biological functions involved in immune response were obtained, and 44 differential expressed genes were enriched in these 8 biological functions. The results of cell distribution analysis showed that there were 21 differential expressed genes expressions on neutrophils significantly higher than other immune cells, and the gene related to lipid metabolism was FFAR3. These results indicated that FFAR3 expression was closely related to the occurrence and development of SAP. ② Clinical study results: out of the 45 SAP patients, 24 developed into secondary infection during ICU stay, 21 did not develop into secondary infection. The expression of neutrophil FFAR3 mRNA in SAP patients with secondary infection was significantly higher than that in SAP patients without secondary infection and healthy controls [2 -ΔΔCt: 3.8 (3.0, 4.2) vs. 1.4 (1.1, 2.7), 1.0 (0.8, 1.1), both P < 0.05]. Spearman correlation analysis showed that neutrophil FFAR3 mRNA expression was positively correlated with secondary infection in SAP patients ( r = 0.799, P < 0.001). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that increased FFAR3 mRNA expression was an independent risk factor for secondary infection in SAP patients [odds ratio ( OR) = 17.212, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 3.004-98.613, P = 0.001]. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of neutrophil FFAR3 mRNA expression for predicting secondary infection in SAP patients was 0.856 (95% CI was 0.750-0.981, P < 0.001). When the optimal cut-off value was 2.37, the sensitivity was 95.83% and the specificity was 76.19%. According to the optimal cut-off value of neutrophil FFAR3 mRNA expression (2.37) for predicting secondary infection in SAP patients obtained by ROC curve analysis, 45 SAP patients were divided into two groups for subgroup analysis. It suggested that the incidence of secondary infection in SAP patients with FFAR3 mRNA expression level ≥2.37 was significantly higher than that in SAP patients with FFAR3 mRNA expression level < 2.37 [82.14% (23/28) vs. 5.88% (1/17)], and the difference was statistically significant ( P < 0.01). Conclusion:The expression of FFAR3 mRNA in neutrophils is closely related to the secondary infection in SAP patients, and monitoring its level can effectively predict the secondary infection in SAP patients.

Objective To analyze the risk factors influencing the occurrence of atherosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes, and to construct and evaluate a nomogram prediction model. Methods Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of atherosclerosis in type 2 diabetes mellitus, and R software was used to build a nomogram prediction model. The accuracy and clinical validity of the model were verified by using H-L fit curve, area under ROC curve and calibration curve. Results The prevalence rate of atherosclerosis was 56.37%. Independent risk factors for atherosclerosis in type 2 diabetes mellitus (P<0.05) were body weight (OR=1.42，P<0.05), glycated serum protein (OR=1.35, P<0.05), lactate dehydrogenase (OR=1.17, P<0.05), alkaline phosphatase (OR=0.79, P<0.05), hyperlipidemia (OR=2.30, P<0.05), stroke (OR=4.20, P<0.05), coronary heart disease (OR=64.54, P<0.05), lower extremity artery disease (OR=24.52, P<0.05), and other endocrine diseases (OR=1.65 , P<0.05). The area under ROC curve was 0.91, the slope of the calibration curve was close to 1, and the H-L fit curve χ²=3.11. The internal verification result of the constructed nomogram prediction model was P=0.93. External verification of patients in the test set showed that the area under ROC curve was 0.91, indicating good differentiation and accuracy of the model. Conclusion The prediction model established by using the risk factors screened in this study has a high accuracy and differentiation, and medical staff can take effective prevention measures according to the individual factors of patients.

Objective To explore the effect of a phased rehabilitation training programme to relieve shoulder dys-function in patients after neck dissection and to provide effective solutions for postoperative shoulder joint function recov-ery of patients.Methods This study has been reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee,and informed consent has been obtained from patients.A phased rehabilitaiton training programme for the shoulder after neck dessection was developed through literature review and discussion,and 70 eligible patients from Hospital of Stomatology,Sun Yat-sen University from December 2020 to April 2021 were selected and randomly divided into the test group and control group(35 patients in each group).The control group underwent motor rehabilitation training from 6 weeks postoperative to 1 year after surgery,such as shoulder mobility and coordination training and small range of motion training of the neck,while the test group took part in a rehabilitation training program that included familiarization maneuver training,protective rehabilitation,exercise rehabilitation,and resistance training in the following four stages:preoperative,postop-erative general anesthesia and awake until the removal of stitches,the removal of stitches until 6 weeks after surgery,and 6 weeks after surgery until 1 year after surgery.The frequency of training in both groups was at least 3 days per week,and the length of each training session was 10-15 min.The intensity of exercise was 2-3 points on the Borg Conscious Ex-ercise Intensity Scale(i.e.,mild-to-moderate tachypnea or fatigue).The neck dissection injury index(NDII)was used to evaluate the quality of life related to shoulder joint function at four time points:preoperative,postoperative 3 months,postoperative 6 months,and postoperative 12 months.The higher the score,the better the quality of life.Results 28 cases in the test group and 32 cases in the control group completed a one-year follow-up.At 3 and 6 months postopera-tive,the NDII of the test group was significantly higher than that of the control group[3 months postoperative:test group(93.48±9.36)vs.control group(80.00±11.34)(P＜0.001),6 months postoperative:test group(98.21±4.76)vs.control group(90.70±9.12)(P＜0.001)];12 months after surgery,the NDII of the test group(97.23±4.88)was still higher than that of the control group(96.33±4.49),but the difference was not statistically significant(P=0.458).The difference in NDII scores among subjects at 3,6,and 12 months after surgery was statistically significant in each group(P＜0.001).Conclusion The application of the phased rehabilitation training method in neck dissection patients has a feasibility and could improve the quality of life of patients'shoulder joint function within 6 months after surgery.

Objective To quantitatively analyze and evaluate the content of rehabilitation policy for people with disabilities in China. Methods This study focused on ten national policies of disability rehabilitation issued from 2021 to 2023.It employed text mining techniques to process policy texts and constructed a policy modeling consistency index model for dis-ability rehabilitation policies in China.The relevant policies were evaluated and analyzed quantitatively. Results The disability rehabilitation policies in China were relatively comprehensive in terms of policy transparency,op-erational mechanisms and policy nature.However,there was still a need for optimization in terms of policy per-spectives,target groups,incentive mechanisms,and other aspects. Conclusion The overall quality of disability rehabilitation policy texts at the national level in China is relatively good.There is a need to further enhance the predictability of policy objectives,clarify the responsibilities and division of labor among various departments,and improve policy incentive mechanisms in future policy formulation,which will further refine China's disability rehabilitation policy system and contribute to high-quality develop-ment of the disability cause.

Small for gestational age (SGA) infants are more likely to experience neurocognitive impairments compared to appropriate for gestational age (AGA) infants. This paper reviews recent research on the neurocognitive development of SGA children. SGA can lead to a "brain-sparing effect" due to growth restriction, which may affect cerebral blood flow and brain structure. However, this does not guarantee normal brain development. Restrictive blood flow can result in changes in brain structure, such as reduced total white matter and gray matter volume in various brain regions, including the cerebral cortex, hippocampus and cerebellum, ultimately leading to decreased head circumference. SGA children also exhibit lower scores in all neurocognitive domains, including intelligence, attention, memory, and executive function. This may result in poor academic performance and an increased risk of social, behavioral, and neurological problems, such as cerebral palsy, epilepsy, visual and hearing impairments, as well as comorbidities like attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD), autism spectrum disorder(ASD), anxiety, depression, and schizophrenia. Several risk factors for SGA-related neurocognitive impairments have been identified, including gestational hypertension, abnormal gestational weight, smoking, and catch-up growth. Studies have shown that the best interventions to improve cognitive dysplasia include nutrient supplementation, continued breastfeeding, high-quality education, and appropriate early intervention (responsive parenting) are effective in improving cognitive outcomes for SGA children.
