Objective: To investigate the relationship between the cognitive appraisal,coping style and the mental health of military personnel. Methods: 370 military personnel were assessed with Life Event Inventory for Compulsory Servicemen of Land Army(LEI-CSLA), Social Support Scale, General Perceived Self-Efficacy Scale(GSES), Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire and Symptom Checklist 90(SCL-90). Results: The results showed that the recruits and the old soldiers both had good mental health levels. Compared with the old soldiers, the recruits’ were better, and had significant difference in life events and objective social support. Life events and negative coping style had significant negative correlations with psychological health(r=-0.543, r=-0.382, P

Cell therapy has a very promising potential for end-stage liver diseases (ESLD).Fetal liver stem/progenitor cells (FLSPCs) have advantages of safety,high survival and proliferation rates,and a small volume,all which make them ideal for liver disease stem cell therapy.During the early phase of our study,we applied a three-step separation method to enrich FLSPCs and obtained a separation efficiency similar to that of the flow-cell sorting method.Additionally,using a fulminant hepatic failure model in rats,we have demonstrated that FLSPCs can contribute to morphological and functional recovery of the liver.This manuscript will discuss how FLSPCs can be induced to accurately differentiate into hepatocytes and cholangiocytes and how FLSPCs maintain self-renewal.The Notch signaling plays a critical role in regulating the differentiation and self-renewal of many types of stem cells.Our previous findings have shown that the Notch signaling plays an important role in FLSPCs differentiation into hepatocytes.Therefore,the Notch signaling might be involved in the differentiation and self-renewal of FLSPCs.We conducted a study on the regulatory effects and relative molecular mechanisms of the Notch signaling on FLSPCs and found the corresponding interfering target,which might become an index for the clinical application of FLSPCs.

Objective:To investigate the impact of malnutrition diagnosed with Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) criteria on the outcomes of patients with primary gastrointestinal lymphoma (PGIL).Methods:Patients with PGIL admitted into Gansu Provincial People's Hospital from January 2014 to July 2022 were retrospectively enrolled. Nutritional risk screening was conducted using Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 (NRS 2002) scale, and malnutrition was diagnosed as per GLIM criteria. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and multivariate Cox regression analysis were performed to investigate the effect of malnutrition as per GLIM criteria on the outcomes of PGIL patients.Results:A total of 82 patients were included. The phenotypic parameters, including body mass index (BMI), arm circumference, leg circumference and grip strength, were at significantly lower levels in the 28 malnourished patients, compared with the other non-malnourished patients. The median overall survival of patients with malnutrition as per GLIM criteria was 10 months, while that of patients without malnutrition was 41 months, showing significant differences between groups. The univariate analysis revealed that age, loss of muscle mass, tumor stage based on Lugano classification and malnutrition as per GLIM criteria were the impacting factors for survival in patients with PGIL. The multivariate analysis further demonstrated that tumor stage based on Lugano classification and malnutrition as per GLIM criteria were the independent impacting factors for survival in patients with PGIL.Conclusion:Malnutrition based on GLIM criteria is an independent risk factor for unfavorable outcomes in patients with PGIL and could be utilized as a prognostic indicator.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of BeEAM (bendamustine+cytarabine+etoposide+melphalan) regimen in pretreatment of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for patients with lymphoma.Methods:The clinical data of 15 patients with lymphoma who underwent autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation after pretreatment with BeEAM regimen from January 2020 to February 2021 in Gansu Provincial Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. The transplant-related adverse reactions and hematopoietic reconstitution were evaluated.Results:During the pretreatment process of 15 patients, 13 patients had gastrointestinal adverse reactions such as nausea, vomiting and diarrhea, 2 patients had hypokalemia, and 1 patient had abnormal liver function, but all of them were grade 1-2, and no grade 3-4 adverse reactions occurred. One patient had poor platelet implantation, and the remaining 14 patients all achieved hematopoietic reconstruction. After transplantation, the median time of peripheral blood neutrophils and platelets good implantation in patients was 10 d (9-14 d) and 11 d (9-17 d), respectively. Until March 2021, all patients were alive during follow-up.Conclusions:The efficacy of BeEAM regimen in pretreatment of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for patients with lymphoma is good, and the adverse reactions are tolerable.

Objective:To investigate the early efficacy and safety of pomalidomide-based regimen in relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (MM) in the real world.Methods:The clinical data of 15 patients with relapsed/refractory MM treated with pomalidomide-based regimen who were admitted to Gansu Provincial Hospital from January 2021 to July 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, and the early efficacy and safety were also evaluated.Results:There were 8 males and 7 females, and the median age of onset of 15 patients was 60 years (43-83 years); the median time for the diagnosis of relapse and refractory was 15 months (4-84 months). All 15 patients previously received bortezomib-based treatment regimens, 9 patients previously received lenalidomide treatment, and 7 cases received autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. All patients received pomalidomide-based regimen combined with two-drug or three-drug regimen (pomalidomide combined with bortezomib,daratumumab,bendamustine, dexamethasone, cyclophosphamide or lenalidomide). The median treatment cycle was 2 cycles (2-4 cycles). After 2 cycles of treatment, the therapeutic efficacy was evaluated; the overall response rate was 73% (11/15), including 3 cases of complete remission, 3 cases of very good partial remission, and 5 cases of partial remission. Hematological toxicity occurred in 9 patients, of which 5 cases had grade 3-4 hematological toxicity, 4 cases had grade 1-2 hematological toxicity, and other adverse reactions were mild and tolerable.Conclusion:Pomalidomide-based regimen is effective and safe for relapsed/refractory MM patients.
