Objective The study explored the feasibility of PBL teaching approach and mini-CEX scores evaluation method in hematology probation teaching practice. Methods 54 medical students of eight-year program were selected in the study and they were in hematology department of Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital for clinical probation. The study compared PBL teaching approach with traditional training method, and used mini-CEX to evaluate the students' clinical competence. Results The performance of PBL teaching group is better than traditional teaching group in the aspect of inquiry skill, clinical diagnosis, therapy plan and humanistic care (P<0.05). There is no significant difference of basic knowledge, physical examination skill and clinical operational skills between these two groups. More than 85％of the students in PBL group are satisfied with the teacher in the aspect of participation, feedback, guidance, correction and assistance. Conclusion Through this teaching practice, the study provides new methods for improving the teaching of pre-internal clinical practice in hematology department.

[Objective]To evaluate the efficacy and safety of total oral regimens containing pomalidomide as a second-line treatment strategy in multiple myeloma.[Methods]A total of 22 patients with multiple myeloma placed on total oral regimens containing pomalidomide as a second-line therapy from March 2020 to December 2023 were retrospectively analyzed to evaluate the treatment response,survival and safety.[Results]The median age of the 22 patients was 71.5 years old. The total oral treatment regimens containing pomalidomide included IPD (7 cases),PCD (11 cases),XPD (2 cases),and PD (2 cases). The median number of treatment cycles was 14. Among the 13 patients with prior lenalidomide exposure,ORR was 53.85％,of which 23.08％ was ≥VGPR. In 9 patients without prior lenalidomide exposure,the ORR was 77.78％,and of which 55.56％ was ≥VGPR. There was no significant difference in ORR between these two groups (P=0.38). In 12 patients with high genetic risk,the ORR was 50％,and ≥VGPR was 16.67％. The median follow-up time was 10.6 months. Disease progressed in 10 patients and death occurred in 6 patients of them. The median progression free survival (PFS) was not reached (not reached and 10.6 months in non-lenalidomide-exposure patients or lenalidomide-exposure patients,respectively).The high grade treatment-related adverse events (AEs)(≥3 ) were reported in 18.18％ patients,including granulocytopenia,thrombocytopenia,and pulmonary infection. There was no treatment-related death.[Conclusion]Total oral regimens containing pomalidomide as a second-line therapy is generally effective and safe for multiple myeloma patients.

Objective In this study,we analyzed the transcriptome sequences of Kupffer cells exposed to simulated microgravity for 3 d and conducted biological experiments to determine how microgravity initiates apoptosis in Kupffer cells. Methods Rotary cell culture system was used to construct a simulated microgravity model.GO and KEGG analyses were conducted using the DAVID database.GSEA was performed using the R language.The STRING database was used to conduct PPI analysis.qPCR was used to measure the IL1B,TNFA,CASP3,CASP9,and BCL2L11 mRNA expressions.Western Blotting was performed to detect the level of proteins CASP3 and CASP 9.Flow cytometry was used to detect apoptosis and mitochondrial membrane cells.Transmission electron microscopy was used to detect changes in the ultrastructure of Kupffer cells. Results Transcriptome Sequencing indicated that simulated microgravity affected apoptosis and the inflammatory state of Kupffer cells.Simulated microgravity improved the CASP3,CASP9,and BCL2L11 expressions in Kupffer cells.Annexin-V/PI and JC-1 assays showed that simulated microgravity promoted apoptosis in Kupffer cells.Simulated microgravity causes M1 polarization in Kupffer cells. Conclusion Our study found that simulated microgravity facilitated the apoptosis of Kupffer cells through the mitochondrial pathway and activated Kupffer cells into M1 polarization,which can secrete TNFA to promote apoptosis.
