Objective:To investigate the efficacy of liposomal doxorubicin intensive preconditioning regimen and allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in treatment of leukemia.Methods:The data of 20 patients with intensive preconditioning regimen allo-HSCT who were admitted to Shenzhen Second People's Hospital from January 2016 to June 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The transplantation effect, occurrence of complications and prognosis of patients were analyzed.Results:The median time of granulocyte engraftment was 17 d (13-23 d); the median time of platelet engraftment was 22.5 d (minimum 13 d, maximum >90 d). The acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and chronic GVHD occurred in 2 cases and 1 case, respectively. Eight cases occurred hemorrhagic cystitis, 15 cases occurred Epstein-Barr viremia, 8 cases occurred cytomegaloviremia, 1 case occurred sepsis, 1 case occurred acute liver injury, and 2 cases occurred fungal pneumonia. The median follow-up time was 31.7 months (0.8-53.8 months). One patient died of intracranial infection on the 25th day after transplantation; 3 patients relapsed during the follow-up period, and 2 of them died; the other 16 patients carried 100% donor genes during the follow-up period.Conclusions:The liposomal doxorubicin intensive preconditioning regimen and allo-HSCT have a good effect on leukemia. Increasing the intensity of pretreatment does not increase the treatment-related adverse reactions. The incidence rates of Epstein-Barr viremia and cytomegaloviremia are high, but they are improved after active treatment.

Objective:To investigate the prognostic value of serum levels of miR-134 and miR-146b in elderly patients with acute ischemic stroke(AIS).Methods:A total of 162 elderly patients with AIS admitted to the Third People's Hospital of Haikou from January 2017 to October 2019 were enrolled.According to modified Rankin Scale(mRS)scores, they were divided into the good prognosis group(n=98, mRS score≤2)and the poor prognosis group(n=64, mRS score>2). Based on the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS), patients were divide into the mild group(n=46, NIHSS score<5), moderate group(n=75, 5≤NIHSS score≤20), and severe group(n=41, NIHSS score>20). Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to detect serum levels of miR-134 and miR-146b in each group.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze risk factors for poor prognosis in elderly patients with AIS.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the value of serum miR-134 and miR-146b levels in predicting poor prognosis of elderly patients with AIS.Pearson correlation was used to analyze the correlations of serum levels of miR-134 and miR-146b with NIHSS and mRS scores in elderly patients with AIS.Results:Serum levels of miR-134(3.26±1.13 vs.0.85±0.38)and miR-146b(2.27±0.93 vs.0.56±0.21)were higher in the AIS group than in the control group( t=14.360 and 12.527, P<0.01). Serum levels of miR-134(4.35±1.46 vs.2.28±0.85)and miR-146b(3.07±1.04 vs.1.51±0.66)were higher in the poor prognosis group than in the good prognosis group( t=13.520 and 11.242, P<0.01). Serum levels of miR-134 and miR-146b in the severe group were higher than in the moderate and mild groups( t=10.815 and 9.462, P<0.01), and they were also higher in the moderate group than in the mild group( t=13.627, 11.611, P<0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that serum miR-134( OR=2.470, 95% CI: 1.603-4.927)and miR-146b( OR=1.914, 95% CI: 1.350-3.406)were risk factors for poor prognosis in elderly AIS patients( P<0.05). The ROC curve analysis showed that the optimal cut-off values of serum miR-134 and miR-146b to predict poor prognosis in elderly AIS patients were 3.84 and 2.68, respectively.The area under the ROC curve(AUC)of combined serum miR-134 and miR-146b(0.926, 95% CI: 0.865-0.987)for the prediction of poor prognosis was higher than that of either marker alone, with a sensitivity and specificity of 92.4% and 86.2%, respectively.The correlation analysis showed that serum levels of miR-134 and miR-146b were positively correlated with NIHSS and mRS scores in elderly AIS patients( r=0.806, 0.871, 0.785 and 0.842, all P<0.01). Conclusions:Increased serum miR-134 and miR-146b levels are correlated with the severity of neurological impairment and prognosis in elderly patients with AIS.Serum miR-134 and miR-146b levels together have a high value in predicting poor prognosis in elderly AIS patients.

Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of in-class transition from proteasome inhibitor bortezomib to ixazomib in the treatment of newly-treated patients with multiple myeloma (MM).Methods:The clinical data of 63 newly-treated MM patients in Shenzhen Second People's Hospital from January 2018 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into transition group (23 cases) and bortezomib group (40 cases). Both groups were treated with bortezomib-containing regimen as the first-line treatment regimen. In case of intolerable adverse reactions, patients in the transition group were treated with ixazomib instead of bortezomib, while the patients in the bortezomib group did not undergo drug transition. The curative effect and progression-free survival (PFS) were compared between the two groups.Results:In the transition group, the overall response rate (ORR) before in-class transition was 95.7% (22/23), the rate of ≥ very good partial remission (VGPR) was 52.2% (12/23); the ORR after transition was 95.7% (22/23), and the rate of ≥ VGPR was 82.6% (19/23). In the bortezomib group, ORR was 90.0% (36/40), and the rate of ≥ VGPR was 72.5% (29/40). There was no significant difference in ORR and the rate of ≥VGPR between the two groups ( χ2 = 0.64, P=0.424; χ2 = 0.82, P = 0.364). The median number of cycles of PI therapy in the transition group was 9, and the median PFS time was not reached. The median number of cycles of PI therapy in the bortezomib group was 7.5, and the median PFS time was 30.0 months (95% CI 19.1-40.9 months), there was no significant difference in PFS between the two groups ( P = 0.275). In the bortezomib group, 12 patients discontinued bortezomib due to adverse reactions, the median PFS time was 20.0 months (95% CI 12.6-27.4 months), and the PFS of patients who discontinued PI in the transition group and the bortezomib group was compared, the difference was statistically significant ( P = 0.043). In the transition group, 21 patients (21/23, 91.3%) developed peripheral neuropathy, and the incidence of ≥grade 3 adverse reactions was 13.0% (3/23); in the bortezomib group, 22 patients (22/40, 55.0%) developed peripheral neuropathy, and the incidence of ≥grade 3 adverse reactions was 12.5% (5/40). Conclusions:For newly-treated MM patients, the transition from bortezomib to ixazomib can improve the depth of remission and reduce the recurrence caused by the discontinuation of PI.
