Objective A retrospective analysis of patients with T-cell lymphoma (TCL) received autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (APBSCT) was performed to evaluate the outcome of APBSCT.Methods A total of 22 patients who underwent APBSCT from September 2006 to December 2011 in Ruijin hospital were enrolled in the study,including 6 cases of lymphoblastic lymphoma and 16 of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (8 anaplastic large cell lymphoma, 4 PTCL-u, 1 subcutaneous panniculitis-like T-cell lymphoma, 2 nasal type extranodal NK/T and 1 primary cutaneous T-cell lymphoma). All patients were diagnosed based on the WHO Classification of Tumors of Hematopoietic and Lymphoid Tissues. Conditioning regimens were high-dose chemotherapies alone which include 13 cases with BEAM, 4 with ICE and 5 with CBV. The outcomes of the treatment were evaluated according to the revised International Working Group criteria.Results With a median follow-up of 13.1(1-60) months,the predicted 2-year overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) after transplantation were (67.6±11.0) % and (71.1±11.1) %,respectively.A total of 6 patients experienced disease progression and 5 patients eventually died of disease. When all these patients based on the remission status before APBSCT (CR1 vs non-CR1) and chemosensitivity (sensitive vs refractory) were further classified, the PFS rates and OS rates were 100 % and 91.7 % respectively in CR1 or chemosensitive patients which were significantly higher than patients not in CR1 (42.6 % ) or with chemoresistant disease (19.0 % ). Conclusion Remission status and chemosensitivity at the time of transplantation significantly affect the outcome of APBSCT for TCL patients, thus it can be recommend to perform APBSCT for patients either in CR1 or early stage when the disease remain sensitive to chemotherapy.

Objective:To investigate the current status and influencing factors of stroke patients.Methods:Using stratified sampling method, 458 stroke patients was investigated for the health behavior from October to December, 2015. Based on PROCEDE-PROCEED model, logistic regression analysis was conducted with the health behavior level of the subjects as the dependent variable, and the characteristic factors in the chi-square test as the independent variables to analyze the factors which influence the health behavior level of stroke patients from predisposing factors, enabling factors and reinforcing factors.Results:The health behavior score of stroke patients was (14.5±3.9), which was at medium level. The score of each dimension was nutrition (0.80±0.25), disease management (0.60±0.26), interpersonal relationship (0.57±0.33), and medication compliance (0.49±0.41). The multiple logistic regression analysis showed that the predisposition factors including age ( OR=2.03, 95% CI=1.08-3.80) and history of hypertension( OR=2.35, 95%=1.16-4.76), the enabling factors including the allocation of social resources ( OR=1.73, 95% CI=0.89-3.36), and the reinforcing factors including family support ( OR=2.03, 95% CI=0.99-4.17) were important factors which affect the health behavior of stroke patients. Conclusion:The health behavior level of stroke patients need to be improved. The relevant community resource allocation system continuously, and focus on the impact of family environment and particularly the elderly and patients with a history of hypertension should be attentioned when improving the health behavior of patients.

Objective To compare the effects of fundus-first laparoscopic cholecystectomy and laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy in complicated cholecystolithiasis cases. Methods The effects of fundus-first laparoscopic cholecystectomy (n = 21) and laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy (a = 18) in the 39 cases of complicated chole-cystolithiasis from our hospital within 2 years were analyzed retrospectively. Results The operation time in subtotal laparoscopic cholecystectomy group was shorter than in fundus-first laparoscopic cholecystectomy group (88.89±18.11) min vs. (109.52±21.79) min, P < 0.05). Less blood lose (82.78±44.96) ml and fluid replacement (847.22±169.32)ml during the operation were observed in the former group than those in the later group (116.67±53.23) ml and (964.29±147.60) ml, respectively, P < 0.05). However, the patients' postoperative recovery time and the duration of postoperative hospital staying were similar in the two groups(5.56±1.20) days vs. (5.29±1.38) days, P > 0.05). Conclusions Proper use of subtotal laparoscopic cholecystectomy in complicated cholecystolithiasis cases can simplify the operation and obligate the operation time, which will increase the safety of the operation with the outcome similar to fundus-first laparoscopic cholecystectomy.
