Objective To explore the risk factors of ulcerative colitis-associated colorectal cancer (UC-CRC).Methods The retrospective case-control study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 536 patients with ulcerative colitis (UC) who were admitted to the Henan Tumor Hospital from March 2004 to June 2015 were collected.Observation indicators:(1) follow-up results:cases with follow-up,follow-up time,cases of UC-CRC,age of onset,pathological type of UC-CRC;(2) risk factors analysis affecting occurrence of UC-CRC:gender,age of onset,course of disease,severity of disease,disease classification,extent of lesion,smoking history,family history of colorectal cancer,anemia,hypoproteinemia,body weight loss,extraintestinal manifestations,colonic polyps,backwash ileitis,atypical hyperplasia,anxiety or depression,treatment method and regular endoscopy reexamination.Follow-up using outpatient examination and telephone interview was performed to detect prognosis of patients up to April 2017.Patients underwent colonoscopy once every 6 months within 3 years after diagnosis and once every 1 year after 3 years.Measurement data with skewed distribution were described as M (range).The univariate analysis was done using the chi-square test and Fisher exact probability.The multivariate analysis was done using the Logistic regression model.Results (1) Follow-up results:of 536 patients,450 were followed up for 26.0-120.0 months,with a median time of 76.4 months.During the follow-up,16 patients were complicated with UC-CRC,including 9 males and 7 females.Age of onset of colorectal cancer was 14-78 years,with an average age of onset of 44 years.Pathological type:high-differentiated right colon adenocarcinoma was detected in 5 patients,high-and moderate-differentiated left colon adenocarcinoma in 3 patients,left colon signetring cell carcinoma in 2 patients,moderate-differentiated rectal tubular adenocarcinoma in 3 patients,highdifferentiated rectal papillary adenocarcinoma in 2 patients and malignant lymphoma in 1 patient.(2) Risk factors analysis affecting occurrence of UC-CRC:the results of univariate analysis showed that course of disease,extent of lesion,colonic polyps and atypical hyperplasia were risk factors affecting occurrence of UC-CRC (x2 =14.848,18.885,10.554,P＜0.05).The results of multivariate analysis showed that course of disease ＞ 10 years,lesion involving the whole colon,colonic polyps and atypical hyperplasia were independent risk factors affecting occurrence of UC-CRC (OR=12.893,17.847,7.326,19.742,95％ confidence interval:1.726-74.337,1.445-89.793,1.263-43.128,3.625-96.524,P＜0.05).Conclusion The course of disease ＞ 10 years,lesion involving the whole colon,atypical hyperplasia and colonic polyps are independent risk factors affecting occurrence of UC-CRC.

Aim To investigate the pharmacokinetic effect of aspirin on caffeic acid in dengzhanxixin injec-tion( DI) . Methods Concentration of caffeic acid in rat plasma was detected by LC-MS/MS after rats were given intravenous administration of DI or DI combined with aspirin by gavage. Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by DAS 1. 0 pharmacokinetic software. Results In vivo pharmacokinetic models of caffeic acid were two-compartment open models in both the caffeic acid group and the caffeic acid combined with aspirin group. After compatibility, caffeic acid showed a significant increase in T 12β, with a slight decrease in CL. Conclusions Aspirin can reduce metabolic process of caffeic acid in vivo.

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a highly heterogeneous disease, and combined chemotherapies symbolized by rituximab + fludarabine + cyclophosphamide have made great achievements in the era of traditional immunochemotherapy. However, for the patients with high genetic risk, relapsed and refractory patients as well as the elderly patients who cannot tolerate it, the therapeutic effect of this regimen is not good. The new drugs represented by BTK inhibitors have solved the above problems to a certain extent, and it is hopeful to move into the chemotherapy-free age of CLL treatment and bring the possibility of drug withdrawal. This article reviews the progress of CLL treatment.

OBJECTIVETo explore the technical advantages of nano carbon development combined with artery approach in lymph node sorting of rectal cancer.

METHODSFrom December 2015 to June 2016, 70 patients with of rectal cancer in General Surgery Department of Henan Cancer Hospital were randomly divided into nano carbon development combined with artery approach group(artery approach group) and conventional group. Specimen of artery approach group was placed on the sorting table. Anatomy was performed from the root of inferior mesenteric artery to left colonic artery, sigmoid artery and superior rectal artery. Along the arterial vessel shape, the black-stained lymph nodes and non-stained lymph nodes (perhaps pink, pale yellow, white or pale brown) were examined carefully using visual and haptic combination method for identification of lymph node. From the root of inferior mesenteric artery, central lymph nodes were sorted. Along the vessel shape, vascular lymph nodes were sorted. Intestinal lymph nodes around the rectum were examined as well. Then, specimen was reversed on the sorting table and underwent sorting as above after the examination of obverse. The conventional group received routine method. The total number, the average harvested number, the number of positive lymph nodes and the number of patients with lymph nodes less than 12 were compared between two groups.

RESULTSAmong 70 cases, 37 were male and 33 were female with the median age of 57(32-88) years old. Dixon resection was performed in 46 cases, and Miles resection in 24 cases. Total sorting lymph node was 1 105, including 641 of artery approach group and 464 of control group with significant difference (t=20.717, P=0.000). Lymph node sorting time of artery approach group was (12.6±3.9) minutes, which was shorter than (18.2±4.1) minutes of control group (t=12.464, P=0.000). In artery approach group, number of lymph node with diameter less than 5 mm was 142, sorting rate was 22.2%(142/641), of which 29 were positive(20.4%). In conventional group, 37 lymph nodes with diameter less than 5 mm were found, and sorting rate was 8.0%(37/464), of which 6 were positive(16.2%). Number of the first station of lymph node sorting in artery approach group and conventional group was 282(44%) and 169(36.4%); number of the second station lymph node sorting was 230(35.9%) and 180(38.8%); number of the third station lymph node sorting was 129(20.1%) and 115(24.8%).

CONCLUSIONThe method of nano carbon development combined with artery approach in lymph node sorting of rectal cancer has some advantages, such as simple operation, more harvested lymph nodes, and more accurate pathological staging.

Objective To investigate the value of the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC)measurement in assessment of tumor grade and myometrial invasion of endometrial carcinoma (EC).Methods 80 EC patients and 28 cervical cancer patients with normal endometrium were studied retrospectively.1.5T conventional MRI and DWI (b=0,1 000 s/mm2)were performed,and ADC values were calculated by two radiologists.Statistical analyses were performed by using SPSS 19.0 and Medcalc software.Results The mean ADC values (×10-3mm2/s)were 0.851±0.131,0.752±0.099,0.681±0.089 for G1,G2 and G3 EC,respectively.Significant statistical differences were achieved for the three groups (G1 vs G2:P=0.005;G2 vs G3:P=0.03;G1 vs G3:P< 0.000 1).For the prediction of G3,the area under the curve (AUC)of 0.851 and the cut-off value of ≤0.742×10-3mm2/s were identified,with the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of 88.24%,76.19% and 85%,respectively.Conclusion There are significant statistical differences between histologic grades of EC.ADC measurement may have the potential to select G3 EC patients.

Objective To explore the surgical approach of retroperitoneal giant tumors not crossing the midline.Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 60 cases of resected giant retroperitoneal tumors (diameter ＞ 10 cm) totally located one-sided of the obdominal cavity from September 2010 to May 2016 in Henan Cancer Hospital.Results Fifty-nine patients underwent successful resection of the tumor,the average operation time was (110 ± 13) min,with an average bleeding volume of (635 ± 22) ml.One patient died of postoperative intra abdominal bleeding.32 cases died during the follow-up for tumor recurrence.The median survival time was 63 months,and the survival rates of the patients at 1,3,and 5 years were 96％,80％,and 54％.Conclusion For large retroperitoneal tumors within one side of the midline,appropriate surgical approach and surgical strategy can reduce the operation time and improve the operation safety.

Objective To explore the changes in serum energy metabolites in patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma,and investigate serum biomarkers for monitoring peripheral T-cell lymphoma from the perspective of energy metabolism.Methods Multiple/selected reaction monitoring(MRM/SRM)was used to detect the energy-related metabolites in the sera of 16 patients with newly diagnosed peripheral T-cell lymphoma admitted in the Hematology Medical Center of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from November 2020 to December 2021,as well as 10 recruited healthy volunteers.The corresponding clinical data including medical history,laboratory results and image data were collected and retrospectively analyzed.Results Significant differences were seen in the contents and expression profiles of serum energy metabolism-related products between the patients and the healthy volunteers.The patients had significantly reduced serum contents of cyclic AMP,succinate,citrate and cis-aconitate(P＜0.05),and elevated D-glucose 6-phosphate content(P＜0.05).The serum contents of citrate and succinate were negatively correlated with the risk stratification(low-,moderate-and high-risk)and clinical stage of the disease(P＜0.05).Meanwhile,there was a negative correlation between the contents of L-malic acid and citrate and the mid-term efficacy evaluation results,such as complete/partial response(CR/PR)or stable disease(SD)(P＜0.05).For patients with extranodal NK/T cell lymphoma(n=10),there were also significant reductions in the contents of cyclic AMP,succinate,citrate,isocitrate and cis-aconitate in the sera of patients compared with healthy volunteers(P＜0.05),and the contents of citrate and succinate were negatively correlated with the clinical stage(P＜0.05)and were rather correlated with mid-term efficacy evaluation results(CR/PR or SD)(P＜0.05).For patients with angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma(n=6),the serum contents of cyclic AMP,citrate and succinate were significantly lower,while the content of D-glucose 6-phosphate was higher when compared with the healthy volunteers(P＜0.05),and the content of succinate was negatively correlated with both clinical stage and risk grade of the patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion There are 5 serum differential metabolites identified between patients with peripheral T-cell lymphoma and healthy controls,and succinate and citrate are expected to be serum biomarkers of peripheral T-cell lymphoma.

【Objective】 To investigate the correlation between early immune reconstitution and clinical outcomes in patients with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). 【Methods】 The basic information and treatment data of 99 patients with ALL undering allo-HSCT from December 2018 to February 2022 were collected. The proportions of CD3⁺ T, CD3⁺CD4⁺ T, CD3⁺CD8⁺ T and CD3^-CD16⁺CD56⁺ NK cells were detected before and 30, 60 and 90 days after transplantation using flow cytometry. The correlation between early cellular immune reconstitution and neutrophil engraftment, platelet engraftment, infection, and acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) was analyzed. 【Results】 Among 99 ALL patients, the median time of neutrophil engraftment was day +11 (range, 8-28), and the median time of platelet engraftment was day +14 (range, 10-120). The cumulative incidence of blood stream infection (BSI) was 11.10% and the cumulative incidence of CMV within 100 days of transplantation was 40.40%. The cumulative incidence of EBV within 100 days was 7.10%. The cumulative incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) was 22.30%. The cumulative incidence of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) within 1 year of transplantation was 16.20%. 1 -year cumulative relapse rate was 13.84%. The 1 -year cumulative disease-free survival (DFS) for all patients was 80.60% and the 1-year overall survival (OS) was 90.30%. The CD4⁺/CD8⁺ ratio was positively associated with the development of aGVHD at 30 days post-transplant (OR 1.21, 95CI 1.01-1.45, P<0.05). The proportion of CD16⁺ CD56⁺ NK cell were higher in the group without BSI than that in the BSI group before and 30 days after transplantation (P < 0.05). The proportion of CD4⁺ T-cell were lower in the CMV infection group than that in the group without CMV infection at 60 and 90 days post-transplant(P<0.05). The higher level of CD4⁺ T-cells at 60 days post-transplant was a protective factor for CMV infection within 100 days (HR 0.91, 95CI 0.84-0.99, P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Early immune reconstitution after allo-HSCT in patients with ALL is associated with aGVHD, CMV and BSI.

【Objective】 To investigate the situation of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae(CRE) colonization in patients undergoing haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT). 【Methods】 A total of 241 consecutive patients who underwent haplo-HSCT in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from June 1, 2021 to June 1, 2022 were enrolled. Anal swab screening was performed within 48 hours of admission and blood cultures were taken when the patient developed fever. Univariate and multivariate analysis were used to analyze the colonization rate, distribution, risk factors and the correlation between CRE colonization and post-transplant bloodstream infection(BSI). 【Results】 Among 241 patients with haplo-HSCT, there were 90 cases in CRE colonization positive group, with a colonization rate of 37.3% (90/241). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that sex (OR 2.42, 95% CI 1.38-4.22, P<0.05) and history of infection within 30 days before transplantation (OR 3.37, 95% CI 1.59-7.17, P<0.05) may be independent risk factors for CRE intestinal colonization. Of the 95 CRE strains, the top five species were carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (38/95, 40.0%), carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli (29/95, 30.5%), carbapenem-resistant Enterobacter cloacae (13/95, 13.6%), carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella acidophilus (6/95, 6.3%) and carbapenem-resistant Proteus mirabilis (3/95, 3.1%). The incidence of post-transplant BSI was 12.0% (29/241) in the CRE-colonized group and 3.3% (8/241) in the non-colonized group. In the colonization group, 100% of the pathogens of BSI were identical with those of CRE colonization. 【Conclusion】 Bacterial culture of anal swab during haplo-HSCT is helpful for detection of CRE colonization in intestinal tract, which provides some clinical basis for active monitoring of key flora, prevention and control of infection.

OBJECTIVETo summarize the clinical characteristics of peripheral blood, immune phenotypes, fusion genes and cytogenetics of patients with t(8;21) acute myeloid leukemia(AML) through the retrospective analysis of 586 patients with t(8;21) AML from 15 blood disease research centers in Northern area of China.

METHODSThe factors affecting prognosis of patients with t(8;21) AML were investigated by using univariate and multivariate COX regression.

RESULTSThe immune type of t(8;21) AML patients was mainly with HLA-DR, CD117, CD34, MPO, CD38, CD13and CD33(>95%), part of them with CD19and CD56; the most common accompanied mutation of t(8;21) AML patients was C-KIT mutation (37.8%); in addition to t(8;21) ectopic, the most common chromosomal abnormality was sex chromosome deletions (38.9%). The univariate analysis revealed a significant survival superiority of OS and PFS in t(8;21) AML patients of WBC≤3.5×10/L without C-KIT mutation, the newly diagnosed ones achieved HSCT(P<0.05), only survival superiority on OS in t(8;21) AML patients with extramedullary infiltration and CD19 positive; the results of multivariate analysis showed a significant survival superiority on OS and PFS in t(8;21) AML patients with WBC≤3.5×10/L(P<0.05).

CONCLUSIONThe clinical features of t(8;21) AML patients in China are similar to those in other countries, WBC≤3.5×10/L is a good prognostic factor while the C-KIT mutation is a poor one in t(8;21) AML patients.
