Objective To investigate the influence of very late antigen-4 (VLA-4) antibody and VLA-4 antibody combined with VP_(16) in vitro on childhood leukemic cells' apoptosis and explore the protection of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSC) upon leukemic cells and its related mechanisms. Methods Leukemic bone marrow stromal cells were isolated by human lymphocyte separation medium and in vitro culture of BMSC (adherent) and leukemia cells (suspended) BMSC+leukemic cells group were as control. Then VLA-4 antibody and/or VP_(16) were added respectively to VLA-4 antibody group, VP_(16) group and VLA-4 antibody combined with VP_(16) group to detect the apoptosis of leukemic cells in different groups through Annexin V-FITC double-labeled flow cytometry and the expression of Survivin, bcl-2 genes in each group of leukemic cells detected by RT-PCR. Results The results showed by flow cytometry that compared with the control groups, for 12 h or 24 h, the early and total apoptosis rates of leukemic cells of the three experimental groups were significantly increased(P <0.05); the early and total apoptosis rates of leukemic cells treated with VLA-4 antibody combined with VP_(16) group was markedly increased, compared with the control group (P <0.05); the comparison of the early and total apoptosis rates for the three experimental groups between 12 h and 24 h was significantly different (P<0.01). Moreover, RT-PCR results showed that the expression of Survivin and bcl-2 genes of leukemic cells in three experimental groups was reduced in varying degrees and the reduction of VLA-4 antibody combined with VP_(16) group was the most obvious. Conclusion BMSC plays a protective role on leukemic cells, and VLA-4 antibody can block the adhesion between BMSC and leukemic cells promoting leukemic cells apoptosis and enhance the sensibility of apoptosis of leukemic cells induced by chemotherapeutics.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for the rational utilization of narcotic drugs in cancer pain patients. METH-ODS:In retrospective survey,2275 prescriptions of narcotic drugs for cancer pain patients in outpatient and emergency depart-ment of our hospital during 2014-2016 were analyzed statistically in respects of general information,drug amount,consumption sum and DDDs,etc. RESULTS:The proportion of male patients and female patients with cancer pain in our hospital were 65.63%and 34.37% within 3 years,mainly aged 21-90. The consumption amount and sum of narcotic drugs in our hospital increased year by year. Dosage forms were mainly tablet. The consumption amount,sum and DDDs of Morphine hydrochloride sustained-release tablets took up the first places among narcotic drugs. And those of Pethidine hydrochloride injection were the lowest. CONCLU-SIONS:The utilization of narcotic drugs is rational in outpatient and emergency department of our hospital on the whole. Morphine preparations are the predominant analgesic drugs for patients with cancer pain.

AIM:To study the changes of ?-adrenoceptors in peripheral lymphocytes at different stages of asthma. METHODS:?-adrenoceptors in peripheral lymphocytes, cAMP and cGMP levels in blood plasma were measured by radioligand binding assay and radioimmunoassay.RESULTS:Bmax and Kd of ?-adrenoceptors in asthma at remission stage were markedly higher than that in normal subjects, while cAMP levels in blood plasma were not different between them. Bmax of ?-adrenoceptors and cAMP levels in blood plasma in asthma at acute exacerbation stage were significantly lower than that in normal subjects, Kds between these two groups were not much different. There was no correlation between ?-adrenoceptors, cAMP and cGMP levels in blood plasma and ventilatory functions.CONCLUSIONS:Changes of ?-adrenoceptors in asthma rather be a pathological change accompanied by the course of the disease than a primary defect.

Objective To investigate the changes of β-adrenergic receptor (βAR) in peripheral lymphocytes and β2AR mRNA levels at different stages of bronchial asthma. Methods β2AR density and β2AR mRNA level in peripheral lymphocytes, cAMP and cGMP levels in blood plasma were estimated by radioligand binding assay, radioimmunoassay and RT-PCR.Results (1) Maximum bound volume (Bmax) and equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd) of β2AR of lymphocyte in asthma patients at remission stage were markedly higher than that in normal subjects, while cAMP levels in blood plasma showed no difference. Bmax of β2AR and cAMP levels in asthma patients at acute exacerbation stage were significantly lower than that in normal subjects, and Kds between these two groups were not much different. (2) Expression of β2ARmRNA in peripheral lymphocytes of asthmatics at remission stage was not significantly different compared with that in normals. Conclusions Amount and function of βAR and β2ARmRNA levels are related to asthmatic conditions. Changes of βAR and β2ARmRNA in asthma might rather be a pathological change accompanied by the course of the disease than a primary defect.

Objective:To report two cases of post-transplantation lymphoproliferative disorders (PTLD) after kidney transplantation in children and review the literature, and to improve clinicians' understanding of PTLD in children.Methods:The clinical data of two children with PTLD admitted to the Children's Hospital of Fudan University were collected and analyzed. The PTLD-related literature of PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, Cochrane Library, Wanfang, CNKI, Weipu Database and China Biomedical Literature Service System from the establishment of the database to January 2020 were collected for literature review. Multivariate logistic regression analysis method was used to analyze the influencing factors of prognostic in children with PTLD.Results:Both of the patients had negative Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and Cytomegalovirus (CMV) before transplantation and anti-thymocyte immunoglobulin (ATG) were induced during transplantation. PTLD in case 1 and case 2 was diagnosed at 3 and 12 months after transplantation, respectively, with positive EBV and CMV serological reaction. The pathological diagnosis was monomorphic PTLD in case 1 and the case 2 was clinically considered as non-hodgkin lymphoma. They all received thrapies of immunosuppressive reduction combined with anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody and chemotherapy. PTLD was relieved and graft function was normal in 2 cases, while case 1 died two and half years after transplantation due to intracranial fungal infection. According to the analysis of 56 children (including 2 cases in this study) with PTLD from the literature review, the median time of PTLD from transplantation was 41.8 months. The initial involved organs were digestive tract [17 cases (30.4%)], respiratory system [8 cases (14.3%)], nervous system [7 cases (12.5%)] and pharyngeal lymph ring [7 cases (12.5%)], respectively. The main pathologic type of PTLD was monomorphic [34 cases (60.8%)]. Fifty-six cases were all positive in EBV serological reaction when PTLD was diagnosed. The treatment included immunosuppressive reduction combined with anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody and chemotherapy. Forty-eight cases of PTLD were relieved, while 8 cases lost graft function. Eleven cases died, including 3 cases due to infection and the other 8 cases due to PTLD. Multivariate logistic regression showed that monomorphic PTLD was a risk factor of death for PTLD children ( OR=21.616, 95% CI 1.007-464.107, P=0.049). Conclusions:PTLD in children with kidney transplantation is mostly associated with EBV infection, and the clinical manifestations are diverse. Monomorphic PTLD has a poor prognosis and high mortality.

Objective:To analyze the failure patterns and survival after stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) in patients with T 1-2N 0M 0 non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). Methods:Clinical data of early-stage NSCLC patients who received SBRT at Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from January 2012 to September 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The primary observed endpoint was the pattern of disease progression, which was divided into intra-field recurrence, regional lymph node recurrence and distant metastasis. Overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were calculated by Kaplan-Meier method. Univariate analysis was conducted by log-rank test, and multivariate analysis was performed by Cox's model.Results:A total of 147 patients with 156 lesions were included. The median follow-up time was 44.0 months (16.5-95.5 months). A total of 57 patients (38.8%) progressed: 14 patients (24.5%) had recurrence with the 1-, 3-, and 5-year local recurrence rates of 2.0%, 10.9%, and 14.3%, respectively; 36 patients (63.2%) had Distant metastasis with the 1-, 3- and 5-year distant metastasis rates of 12.2%, 22.4% and 28.6%, respectively; and 7 patients (12.3%) had recurrence complicated with distant metastasis. The 3-, 5- and 7-year OS rates were 80.5%, 64.2% and 49.9% for all patients, respectively. The median OS was 78.4 months. The 3-, 5- and 7-year PFS rates were 64.8%,49.5% and 41.5%, with a median PFS of 57.9 months (95% CI: 42.3-73.5 months). Univariate and multivariate analyses showed that biologically equivalent dose and age were the factors affecting the efficacy of SBRT (both P<0.05). Conclusion:Distant metastasis is the main failure pattern in patients with T 1-2N 0M 0 NSCLC after SBRT. High-risk population should be selected for further systematic treatment to improve the efficacy.

OBJECTIVE:To eval uate the effect of pharmacists intervention on opioid treatment and management in outpatients with cancer pain under multidisciplinary team (MDT)mode. METHODS :Totally 120 outpatients with cancer pain were selected from outpatient department of our hospital from Jan. 2016 to Dec. 2018,and divided into observation group and control group according to random number table method ,with 60 cases in each group. After 1 month follow-up ,patients in the control group were given opioid analgesics and routine intervention according to pain degree ,while patients in the observation group were given same treatment as control group and pharmacist intervention based on MDT. The pain condition ,medication compliance condition , quality of life (QOL)score,the incidence of ADR and satisfaction degree were observed in 2 groups before and after intervention . RESULTS:Follow-up were completed in 2 groups. After intervention ,NRS scores of 2 groups were significantly lower than before intervention;the observation group was significantly lower than the control group ;medication compliance scores and QOL scores of 2 groups were significantly higher than before intervention ,the observation group was significantly higher than the control group at the same time . With the prolongation of treatment time ,the number of patients with mild pain and general medication compliance in 2 groups increased gradually ,and the observation group were significantly higher than the control group at the same time;the number of patients with moderate , severe pain and low medication compliance were significantly decreased gradually , and the observation group was significantly lower than the control group at the same time. The number of patients with good medication compliance in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the same group before intervention and the control group at the same time (P<0.05 or P<0.01). There was no significant difference in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups(P>0.05). The satisfaction of pain control results ,doctors’treatment and pharmacists follow-up in the observation group were significantly higher than control group (P<0.05 or P<0.01). CONCLUSIONS :Under MDT mode ,pharmacists participating in the management of opioid treatment for cancer pain outpatients can effectively relieve the pain ,and improve the medication compliance and quality of life .

Objective:To investigate the unqualified hepatitis C virus (HCV) detection result of blood donors from the served area of blood institutions.Methods:The data related to HCV markers detected of the first and repeat blood donors were collected from the system of practice comparison for the Chinese mainland blood institutions from 2017 to 2021. The anti-HCV reactive rate and the rates of anti-HCV negative but HCV-RNA reaction and all the relationship between rates and the annual, regional and different blood donors were statistically analyzed.Results:During 2017-2021, the number of anti-HCV reactive per 100 000 blood donors decreased from 444.3 to 250.44 in the served area of 22 blood institutions ( χ2=49.677, P<0.05). The number of HCV RNA detected positive per 100 000 anti-HCV negative increased from 0.69 to 2.05 year by year, but there was no statistical significance ( χ2=0.643, P>0.05). The anti-HCV unqualified rate was significantly different among regions ( χ2=3 260.283, P<0.05). The anti-HCV unqualified rate of the first blood donors was significantly higher than that of the repeated blood donors ( F=130.993, P < 0.05). The annual number of HCV RNA detected positive per 100 000 anti-HCV negative blood samples from donors ranged from 0 to 17.28. Conclusions:The anti-HCV unqualified rate of blood donors in the served area of 22 blood institutions decreased year by year. Compared with repeated blood donors, HCV infection should be emphasized in first-time blood donors. The implementation of HCV RNA test can detect out much more HCV infections and reduce the risk of transfusion transmitted infectious HCV.
