Objective To retrospectively analyze the prognostic factors for locoregionally recurrent early?stage extranodal nasal?type natural killer/T?cell lymphoma ( NKTCL) . Methods A total of 56 patients with early?stage extranodal nasal?type NKTCL, who had locoregional recurrence after initial treatment and then received salvage treatment from 1995 to 2014, were enrolled as subjects. The effects of salvage treatment on the overall survival ( OS) rate were analyzed after initial treatment and recurrence. Univariate and multivariate prognostic analyses were performed on the OS rate after recurrence. Results The median follow?up time was 35. 9 months after initial treatment and 14. 8 months after recurrence. The 3?year OS rate was 73% after initial treatment and 58% after recurrence. Compared with chemotherapy alone, radiotherapy?containing salvage treatment significantly improved the OS rates after initial treatment and recurrence ( P=0. 040, 0. 009 ) , and re?irradiation also significantly improved the OS rates after initial treatment and recurrence (P=0. 018, 0. 019). Most (84%) of the acute and late adverse reactions after re?irradiation were grade 1?2 ones. The univariate and multivariate analyses showed that the Karnofsky Performance Status score, radiotherapy in initial treatment, and radiotherapy in salvage treatment were influencing factors for the OS rate after recurrence. Conclusions Radiotherapy achieves improved survival and tolerable toxicities, making it indispensable in the treatment of locoregionally recurrent extranodal nasal?type NKTCL.

Objective:
To investigate the current status of screen time in preschoolers during the outbreak of Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19), and the influences of parent-child active play and school online education on screen time.
Methods:
A total of 2 370 preschoolers were chosen through clustering sampling from 7 kindergartens in Wuxi urban areas. Questionnaire survey was administered to parents for child screen time, active play, online education as well as characteristics information.
Results:
A total of 1 428(60.3%) preschoolers reported more than 1 hour screen time a day, and 1 915(80.8%) preschoolers reported more than 20 minutes consecutive screen time. Compared with the weekend before the COVID-19 outbreak, 1 551(65.4%) preschoolers reported an increase of 10 minutes in screen time perday, and 1 444(60.9%) reported an increase of 5 minutes for one sersion. Logistic regression analysis showed that after controlling for confounding factors, high frequency of parent-child active play, parents’ exercise habits, online education from kindergartens and children’s active participation in the online education were negatively associated with preschoolers’ excessive and increased screen time during this period(OR=0.39-0.79, P<0.05).
Conclusion
During the COVID-19 outbreak, preschoolers’ media use in Wuxi city is worrisome. Parent-child active play, parents’ exercise and online education from kindergartens may play a positive role in reducing preschoolers’ media use.
