Objective To explore the effect of parvovirus B19 (VB19) infection on pediatric leukemia patients. Methods The pediatric leukemia patients were enrolled in the study in the Children's Hospital of Soochow University. Expression levels of VB19-DNA-PCR were detected using the polymerase chain reaction. Positive patients would be monitored and treated by conventional treatment as well until VB19 gene became negative. The data was compared according to the VB19 clearance time, clinical symptoms and blood counts to evaluate the effect. Results In the 3009 samples from 824 pediatric leukemia patients, there were 36 samples (1.2%) from 12 cases (1.5%) of pediatric leukemia paients with positive VB19 infection. Among the positive patients, 11 cases (1.9%) were from 582 with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients and 1 (0.45%) was from 212 with acute myeloid leukemia (AML). According to the treatment stage, 3 cases were in initially diagnosed period, 2 cases in early stage of consolidation chemotherapy, 4 cases in delayed enhanced chemotherapy period, and 3 cases in maintenance chemotherapy period. According to the treatment response, 4 cases were in continuous treatment, 2 cases were sensitive to treatment, and 3 cases were drug resistant. In the drug resistance group, 2 cases developed into the pure red cell aplastic anemia (PRCA). After treatment, one was recovered from PRCA with VB19 cleared, the other one remained PRCA with continuously positive VB19. Conclusions More VB19 virus infection in pediatric ALL happened in delayed enhanced chemotherapy period. The persistent presence of VB19 infection on pediatric leukemia patients is closely related with PRCA.

The safety of decitabine as bridging treatment before allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in children with refractory hematological malignancies was evaluated.All 11 cases succeeded in hematopoietic reconstitution.The main adverse reaction was hematological toxicity.Neither did infections occur,nor drug-induced liver damage and renal impairment during decitabine administration.Most cases showed grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ gastrointestinal adverse events.One case was diagnosed as severe acute graft versus host disease and died of intracranial hemorrhage on day 61 after allo-HSCT.The other 10 patients survived.Decitabine bridge is a safe regimen before allo-HSCT in children with refractory hematological malignancies.

Objective: To analyze the efficacy of recombinant activated factor Ⅶ a (rF Ⅶ a) on hematonosis with moderate or severe bleeding signs. Methods: Of total 16 cases with rF Ⅶ a treatment from May 2013 to May 2016, 8 cases received allogeneic hematopoietic stem cells transplantation (allo-HSCT) and the other were non-transplantation patients. In two groups, there was no significant difference on rF Ⅶ a usage and dosage. 15 patients with acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) after allo-HSCT were control group (without rF Ⅶ a) . Results: ①The total response rate was 75.0% (6/8) in non-transplantation group and 37.5% (3/8) in transplantation group, respectively. Median interval for hemorrhage stop was 38.5 hours in non-transplantation group and 63.0 hours in transplantation group. The median overall survival (OS) was 201.0 and 29.0 days for non-transplantation group and transplantation group, respectively, and the OS rate was 50.0% (4/8) and 25.0% (2/8) , respectively. The bleeding-related mortality rate was 50.0% (2/4) and 83.3% (5/6) , respectively. ②Of the 16 cases, 9 showed response to rF Ⅶ a treatment and the other 7 cases’bleeding signs did not alleviate. The median OS was 268.0 in 9 cases with response and 24.0 days in 7 cases without response, respectively. ③In patients with intestinal aGVHD complicated with intestinal hemorrhage, the median OS of observation group (n=6) and control group (n=15) were 25.5 days and 20.0 days, respectively. Conclusion Patients with hematological diseases, especially patients after allo-HSCT, had high bleeding-related mortality, and rFⅦa therapy had a obvious hemostatic efficacy. The survival rate of patients with response was higher than that of cases without response. The causes of poor hemostasis efficacy of rF Ⅶ a therapy were associated with unsatisfactory control of complications in patients with intestinal bleeding after allo-HSCT.

In the course of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2)infec-tion,to verify whether ursodeoxycholic acid(UDCA)can reduce angiotensin-converting enzyme 2(ACE2)receptor in BALB/c mice and reduce the risk of infection.UDCA was administered by in-tragastric administration to BALB/c mice for 7 d.During the treatment,the turbinate bones and lungs of mice were taken every day,and the changes of ACE2 content in the turbinate bones and lungs of mice were detected by ELISA.In addition,after 1,4 and 7 d of intragastric prophylaxis,BALB/c mice were infected with SARS-CoV-2 C57MA14 mouse adapted strain and SARS-CoV-2 Omicron DY1.1,respectively,after nasal inoculation,and viral load was detected on the turnings and lungs of mice 3 d after challenge to evaluate the preventive effect.In addition,UDCA was used to treat BALB/c mice infected with SARS-CoV-2 C57MA14 mouse adapted strain after nasal drops by gavage for 3 d,and the viral load of the mouse turbinate and lung was detected to evaluate the therapeutic effect.UDCA can decrease ACE2 content in turbinate and lung of BALB/c mice.How-ever,after 1,4 and 7 d of UDCA intragastric administration,there was no statistical difference in viral load in turbinate and lung of BALB/c mice between the prevention group and the virus con-trol group.There was no significant difference in the viral load of the turbinate and lung between the UDCA treatment group and the viral control group.UDCA could reduce the ACE2 content in the turnings and lungs of aged BALB/c mice,but the daily dose and duration of UDCA treatment had no significant effect on the mice infected with SARS-CoV-2 C57MA14 mouse adapted strain and SARS-CoV-2 Omicron DY1.1.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of the combination of abidol, lopinavir/ritonavir plus recombinant interferon α-2b (rIFNα-2b) and the combination of lopinavir/ritonavir plus rIFNα-2b for patients with COVID-19 in Zhejiang province.Methods:A multicenter prospective study was carried out to compare the efficacy of triple combination antiviral therapy and dual combination antiviral therapy in 15 medical institutions of Zhejiang province during January 22 to February 16, 2020. All patients were treated with rIFNα-2b (5 million U, 2 times/d) aerosol inhalation, in addition 196 patients were treated with abidol (200 mg, 3 times/d) + lopinavir/ritonavir (2 tablets, 1 time/12 h) (triple combination group) and 41 patients were treated with lopinavir/ritonavir (2 tablets, 1 time/12 h) (dual combination group). The patients who received triple combination antiviral therapy were further divided into three subgroups: <48 h, 3-5 d and >5 d according the time from the symptom onset to medication starting. The therapeutic efficacy was compared between triple combination group and dual combination group, and compared among 3 subgroups of patients receiving triple combination antiviral therapy. SPSS 17.0 software was used to analyze the data.Results:The virus nucleic acid-negative conversion time in respiratory tract specimens was (12.2±4.7) d in the triple combination group, which was shorter than that in the dual combination group [(15.0±5.0) d] ( t=6.159, P<0.01). The length of hospital stay in the triple combination group [12.0 (9.0, 17.0) d] was also shorter than that in the dual combination group [15.0 (10.0, 18.0) d] ( H=2.073, P<0.05). Compared with the antiviral treatment which was started within after the symptom onset of in the triple combination group, the time from the symptom onset to the viral negative conversion was 13.0 (10.0, 17.0), 17.0 (13.0, 22.0) and 21.0 (18.0, 24.0) d in subgroups of 48 h, 3-5 d and >5 d, respectively ( Z=32.983, P<0.01), while the time from antiviral therapy to viral negative conversion was (11.8±3.9), (13.5±5.1) and (11.2±4.3) d, respectively( Z=6.722, P<0.05). Conclusions:The triple combination antiviral therapy of abidol, lopinavir/litonavir and rIFNα-2b shows shorter viral shedding time and shorter hospitalization time, compared with the dual combination antiviral therapy; and the earlier starting triple combination antiviral therapy will result in better antiviral efficacy.

Objective: Comparing the benefit of Abidor, lopinavir/ritonavir and recombinant interferon α-2b triple combination antiviral therapy and lopinavir/ritonavir and interferon dual combination antiviral therapy to hospitalized novel coronavirus pneumonia 2019 in Zhejiang province. Methods: A multi-center prospective study was carried out to compare the effect of triple combination antiviral therapy with dual combination antiviral therapy in 15 medical institutions of Zhejiang Province. All patients were treated with recombinant interferon α-2b (5 million U, 2 times/d) aerosol inhalation. 196 patients were treated with abidol (200 mg, 3 times/d) + lopinavir / ritonavir (2 tablets, 1 time/12 h) as the triple combination antiviral treatment group. 41 patients were treated with lopinavir / ritonavir (2 tablets, 1 time/12 h) as the dual combination antiviral treatment group. The patients who received triple combination antiviral therapy were divided into three groups: within 48 hours, 3-5 days and > 5 days after the symptom onset. To explore the therapeutic effects of triple combination antiviral drugs and dual combination antiviral drugs, as well as triple combination antiviral drugs with different antiviral initiate time. SPSS17.0 software was used to analyze the data. Results: The time of virus nucleic acid turning negative was (12.2 ± 4.7) days in the triple combination antiviral drug group, which was shorter than that in the dual combination antiviral drug group [(15.0 ± 5.0) days] (t = 6.159, P < 0.01 ). The length of hospital stay [12 (9, 17) d] in the triple combination antiviral drug group was also shorter than that in the dual combination antiviral drug group [15 (10, 18) d] (H = 2.073, P < 0.05). Comparing the antiviral treatment which was started within 48 hours, 3-5 days and > 5 days after the symptom onset of triple combination antiviral drug group, the time from the symptom onset to the negative of viral shedding was 13 (10,16.8), 17 (13,22) and 21 (18-24) days respectively (Z = 32.983, P < 0.01), and the time from antiviral therapy to the negative of viral shedding was (11.8±3.9) , (13.5±5.1) and (11.2±4.3) d. The differences among the three groups were statistically significant (Z=32.983 and 6.722, P<0.01 or<0.05). Conclusions The triple combination antiviral therapy of Abidor, Lopinavir/Litonavir and recombinant interferon α-2b showed shorter viral shedding time and hospitalization time compared with the dual combination antiviral therapy. The earlier the time to initiate triple antiviral treatment, the shorter the time of virus shedding.
