To enhance the understanding of familial erythrocytosis type 2 (ECYT2) resulting from compound heterozygous mutations in the VHL gene.Methods:We conducted a retrospective analysis of the case data from a patient with ECYT2 to investigate its pathogenesis, clinical features, diagnosis and treatment options, as well as prognosis, while also reviewing the relevant literature.Results:A 31-year-old man was admitted to the hospital due to facial and hand flushing that had persisted for 29 years. Whole exome sequencing revealed compound heterozygous mutations in VHL p.P81L and p.N90T. Both of his parents were found to carry only one of these heterozygous mutations, yet they exhibited normal phenotypes. Based on the patient's hematological tests, a clear diagnosis of ECYT2 was established. Following treatment with erythrocytapheresis and daily administration of aspirin at a dosage of 100 mg, the patient experienced relief from dizziness and headaches associated with blood hyperviscosity, without any thrombotic or bleeding complications during this period.Conclusions:ECYT2 is a rare group of autosomal recessive genetic disorders. This case of ECYT2, resulting from compound heterozygous mutations in the VHL gene, represents the first report in China. Clinically, it is characterized by elevated red cell mass, normal or increased serum erythropoietin levels, and normal hemoglobin oxygen affinity levels. These factors contribute to thrombotic and bleeding complications that can lead to early mortality.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics, therapeutic responses, and survival outcomes of patients with lymphocytic variant hypereosinophilic syndrome (L-HES) .Methods:We retrospectively reviewed clinical data from 16 consecutive patients diagnosed with L-HES at the Institute of Hematology and Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, between July 2019 and October 2024. A control group of 65 patients with idiopathic hypereosinophilic syndrome (iHES), diagnosed during the same period, was used for comparison. Clinical and laboratory characteristics, therapeutic responses, and survival outcomes were compared between the two groups.Results:The most frequently involved organs at presentation in patients with L-HES were the skin (75.0%), gastrointestinal tract (25.0%), respiratory tract (18.8%), lymph nodes (18.8%), heart (12.5%), and spleen (6.3%). Compared with iHES patients, patients with L-HES had a significantly higher incidence of skin involvement ( P=0.016), with no statistically significant differences observed in the involvement of other organs. No statistically significant differences were found in complete blood count parameters between the two groups. Multiparameter flow cytometry revealed that the median percentage of CD3 -CD4 + T cells in the peripheral blood of patients with L-HES was 4.08% ( IQR: 1.64%-32.78%), with a median absolute count of 0.10 (0.05-0.55) ×10 9/L. Serum immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels were significantly higher in the L-HES group than in the iHES group ( P<0.001). Clonal rearrangement of T-cell receptor genes was detected in 75.0% of patients with L-HES. After diagnosis, 14 patients with L-HES received glucocorticoids as first-line therapy, yielding an overall response rate of 92.9%. During glucocorticoid tapering, 11 patients experienced recurrent eosinophilia or worsening of clinical symptoms. Three patients received interferon-alpha as a second-line therapy, with two achieving complete remission. After a median follow-up of 16 months ( IQR: 8-28 months), one patient died of cardiac insufficiency 8 months after diagnosis, and no cases of lymphoma transformation were observed. The 2-year overall survival rate was (91.7±8.0) %, which did not significantly differ from that of the iHES group (96.2±2.6) % ( P=0.746) . Conclusions:Patients with L-HES generally have a favorable prognosis and are often characterized by skin involvement and significantly elevated serum IgE levels at diagnosis. They typically respond well to glucocorticoid therapy, although relapse is common during dose tapering. Interferon-alpha may serve as an effective second-line therapeutic option.

Objective:To analyze the current situation of professional identity of nursing students in China, and explore the research hotspots and development trends.Methods:We searched relevant articles in China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP and WanFang Data, and the retrieval time limit was from January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2021. CiteSpace software (version 5.8. R2) was used for bibliometric and visual analysis of the number of articles, authors, institutions and keywords.Results:Since 2016, the number of articles increased significantly. At present, there were large numbers of cross-sectional studies, but there were some limitations and lack of longitudinal studies. There was much cooperation between authors and little cooperation between research institutions, and no large-scale cooperation network was formed. The keyword emergence analysis found that the research on nursing students' professional identity and clinical practice had the longest emergence time, and the keyword with the highest emergence in 2020 was "COVID-19".Conclusions:At present, it is a critical period for the development direction of nursing students' professional identity research to change. It is necessary to establish a large cooperation network model, carry out longitudinal investigation and intervention research, so as to improve nursing students' professional identity.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of radiotherapy in the treatment of extracranial metastatic breast cancer, and to investigate the significance and prognostic factors of whole-lesion radiotherapy (WLRT).Methods:Clinical data of 85 patients with extracranial metastatic breast cancer treated with radiotherapy between 2014 and 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Thirty-six patients were assigned into the WLRT group and 49 in the non-WLRT group. The local control (LC), progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were calculated by Kaplan- Meier method, log-rank test and univariate prognostic analysis. Cox proportional hazards model was used for multivariate prognostic analysis. Results:The median follow-up time was 26.7 months. The 2-year LC, PFS, OS rates were 77%, 26%, 77%, respectively. The 2-year LC (91% vs. 67%, P=0.001), PFS (47% vs. 8%, P<0.001), OS rates (84% vs. 71%, P=0.010) in the WLRT group were significantly higher than those in the non-WLRT group, respectively. Multivariate analysis demonstrated that WLRT was an independent favorable prognostic factor for the LC, PFS and OS. Furthermore, bone metastasis alone was associated with improved LC and positive hormone receptor status was correlated with improved OS. Conclusions:WLRT has the potential to prolong the survival of patients with extracranial metastatic breast cancer. The patients with bone metastases alone obtain better LC, whereas those with negative hormone receptor status has worse OS.
