Objective To establish a five-color flow cytometric immunophenotyping protocol and valuate its clinical application in leukemia and lymphoma. Methods Samples from 73 cases of acute leukemia and 30 cases of lymphoma were analyzed using a comprehensive antibody panel with five-color combination. The antibody combination CD7/CD33/CD19/CD13/CD45 and MPO/cCD79a/cCD3/CD117/CD45,composed of different lineage distinctive and lineage sensitive markers of B, T and myeloid cells, were applied to determine the lineage originality of leukemia and lymphoma celia. The markers used in the second step analysis were based on the findings of the first step. Results Five-color compensation can be performed automatically and easily with the advanced digital compensation program. The results showed that the expression ratio of CD19 in B-ALL was 100% (27/27), cCD79, pesitivity was 92.6% (25/27) and CD7,cCD3 was expressed in all T-ALL cases (8/8). The B-ALL could be staged depending on the expression level of CD34 ,CD10 ,cμ,sIgM and the T-ALL could be dearly staged dependent on the expression level of CD2,CD1a,,CD4,CD4,CD8. The expression ratio of cMPO, CD117 was 89. 5% (34/38) and 81.6% (31/38) in AML respectively, however CD7 was also expressed in 26.3% (10/38) of AML cases. Combined with morphology, immanophenotypes could be used for diagnosing AML with subtyping. The CD19/SSC gating can be used for immunophenotyping of B cell lymphoma with differential diagnosis. The number of robes required was significantly reduced with our panel from 12 tubes of 3-color to 6 tubes of 5-color. Implementation of the five-color protocol had resulted in 20% reduction in reagent costs. Conclusions The application of fivecolor staining protocol significantly improve the sensitivity and accuracy of measurement of immunophenotypes of acute leukemia and lymphoma. It reduces the cost and can be widely applied in the clinical laboratory diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the effects of abdominal breathing training on sleep disorders in elderly patients with chronic heart failure. Methods Total of 100 patients with chronic heart failure complain of sleeping disorders and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI)>7 points were assigned into two groups by random digits table method, 50 cases in each group. The observation group and the control group were nursed in the same way except that abdominal breathing was adapted to the observation group. Sleep status, heart rate, blood pressure, SpO2 and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) were evaluated before training, one week and eight weeks after training respectively. Statistics was used to analyze the differences between two groups. Results After training one week, the sleep status of the observation group was ameliorated, but without significant difference compared to the control group (P>0.05). And after training eight weeks, the PSQI, BNP and heart rate were (9.21 ± 6.38) points, (193.78 ± 152.16) μg/L, (63.5 ± 10.8) times/min in the observation group, and (12.92 ± 0.33) points, (417.55 ± 262.47) μg/L, (70.7 ± 8.5) times/min in the control group, and there was significant differences between 2 groups (t=3.627, 2.041, 2.767, all P < 0.05), while the blood pressure, SpO2 did not change obviously(P>0.05). Conclusions Abdominal breathing training could ameliorate sleep status in elderly patients with chronic heart failure.

Objective: To investigate the risk factors of ventricular arrhythmias in patients with Brugada syndrome. Methods: Clinical data of 60 Brugada syndrome patients admitted in the department of cardiology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from March 2003 to December 2016 were collected and retrospectively analyzed. The age at diagnosis was (43.2±13.1) years (0.6-83.0 years), 98.3% were males (n=59), and the patients were followed up to (92±41) months (12-169 months). The 12-lead surface electrocardiogram (ECG) recorded at the time of diagnosis and showing the highest type 1 ST elevation, either spontaneously or after provocative drug test, was used for the analysis. Patients were divided into ventricular arrhythmia (VA, n=12) group and non-ventricular arrhythmia (non-VA, n=48) group depending on the presence or absence of clinical VA event. The demographic data and ECG data of the 2 groups were compared, and the independent risk factors of VA events were analyzed by stepwise logistic regression. Results: Incidence of family history of sudden death (7/12 vs. 22.9% (11/48)) and percentage of type 1 ST elevation in the peripheral ECG leads (6/12 vs. 16.67% (8/48)) were significantly higher in VA group than in non-VA group (both P<0.05). Max Tpeak-Tend (Max-Tpe) interval ((144±53)ms vs. (110±16)ms) and dispersion of Tpe ((74±50)ms vs. (43±17)ms) were significantly higher in VA group than in non-VA group (both P<0.05). The area under receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves for the Max-Tpe interval was 0.693 and Max-Tpe interval ≥140 ms was determined as an optimized cutoff point with increased risk of VA event, which had a sensitivity of 50.0%, a specificity of 98.0%, a positive predictive value of 85.7%, and a negative predictive value of 88.7% for predicting VA event. The ROC curves for the dispersion of Tpe was 0.775 and dispersion of Tpe ≥45 ms was determined as an optimized cutoff point for predicting VA event, which had a sensitivity of 91.7%, a specificity of 64.6%, a positive predictive value of 39.3%, and a negative predictive value of 96.9% for predicting VA event. In multivariate analysis, Max-Tpe interval ≥140 ms (OR=27.53, 95%CI 1.07-706.77, P=0.045) and family history of sudden death (OR=24.63, 95%CI 2.05-295.38, P=0.011) were found to be the independent risk factors of arrhythmic events. Conclusions Max-Tpe interval ≥140 ms and family history of sudden death are risk factors of VA event in included patients with Brugada syndrome.

Objective To investigate changes in gait level of patients after hip replacement, the variation trend of bone mineral density (BMD) around the prothesis was studied, so as to reveal the influence pattern of gait level at postoperative initial and long-term stages on bone reomodeling. Methods Based on adaptive bone remodeling theory, the finite element model of femer-prosthesis was developed. The BMD distribution was calculated using the initial and long-term gait level after hip replacement as the remodeling parameters. Gruen method was applied to quantify the BMD changes. Results At the postoperative initial stage, obvious variations existed in constant gait group and changing gait group. The maximum difference occurred in low gait group, resulting in the decrease of BMD by 41% in greater trochanter region. The improvement of gait level would promote the enhancement of BMD in proximal and middle region of the prosthesis, resulting in the increase of BMD by 47%. Long-term gait recovery would promote BMD recovery in middle and end region of prosthesis, with BMD increase by 2%-9%. Conclusions The research findings provide guidance for rehabilitation process of patients after hip replacement.

Objective To analyze the status of coronary collateral circulation(CCC)in patients with acute myocardial infarction(AMI)and explore its relationship with thrombus burden.Meth-ods Convenient sampling was used to select 161 AMI patients diagnosed and treated in Tongling People's Hospital from May 2022 to March 2024.Their CCC status was assessed by Rentrop clas-sification,and according to the results,they were divided into well-(grade 2～3,84 cases)and poorly-developed CCC groups(grade 0～1,77 cases).The general clinical data,cardiac function in-dicators and thrombus burden were compared between the two groups.Multivariate logistic re-gression was employed to identify the independent influencing factors for CCC status in AMI pa-tients,and ROC curve was plotted to analyze the relationship between CCC status and thrombus burden.Results In the 161 AMI patients,the incidence of adverse CCC was 47.83％(77/161).The poorly-developed CCC group had significantly lower Gensini score,and higher white blood cell count than the well-developed CCC group(P＜0.01);There is a statistically significant differ-ence in proportion of infarct related blood vessels between two groups(P＜0.01).The rate of high thrombus burden in the poorly-developed CCC group was obviously higher than that in the well-developed group(79.22％vs 26.19％,P＜0.01).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that infarction-related vessels(left anterior descending coronary artery),white blood cell count and thrombus burden were independent risk factors for poor development of CCC,while Gensini score was independent protective factors(OR=2.051,95％CI:1.071-3.928;OR=1.647,95％CI:1.353-2.006;OR=6.418,95％CI:2.654-15.519;OR=0.973,95％CI:0.948-0.999).ROC curve analysis indicated that the AUC value of thrombus burden was 0.752(95％CI:0.678-0.817).Conclusion It is quite common of poorly developed CCC in AMI patients,which is associ-ated with the increase of thrombus burden.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for portopulmonary hypertension(POPH)in liver cirrhosis,and to construct a noninvasive predictive model.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 310 cirrhotic patients with portal hypertension who were hospitalized in The Third Affiliated Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2013 to August 2022,and according to whether pulmonary artery systolic pressure was≥40 mmHg on ultrasound,the patients were divided into POPH group with 31 patients and non-POPH group with 279 patients.The independent-samples t test was used for comparison of normally distributed continuous data between two groups,and the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of non-normally distributed continuous data between two groups;the chi-square test or the Fisher's exact test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups.A binary Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent risk factors for POPH,and a nomogram prediction model was constructed.The Bootstrap resampling method was used for internal validation,and C-index and calibration curve were used to assess the discriminatory ability and consistency of the model.The rms package was used to plot the nomogram.Results Compared with the non-POPH group,the POPH group had a significantly younger age,a significantly higher proportion of women or patients with hepatic encephalopathy or Child-Pugh class C disease,and significantly higher levels of direct bilirubin,Model for End-Stage Liver Disease score,albumin-bilirubin(ALBI)score,international normalized ratio,prothrombin time,FIB-4 index,LOK score,and Forns index,as well as significantly lower levels of serum albumin,alanine aminotransferase,gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase,hemoglobin,total cholesterol,and triglycerides(all P<0.05).The multivariate analysis showed that sex(odds ratio[OR]=0.172,95%confidence interval[CI]:0.064-0.462,P<0.001),age(OR=0.944,95%CI:0.901-0.989,P=0.016),ALBI score(OR=3.091,95%CI:1.100-8.687,P=0.032),and hepatic encephalopathy(OR=3.466,95%CI:1.331-9.031,P=0.011)were independent risk factors for POPH.A predictive model for POPH in liver cirrhosis was established based on the above independent risk factors,with a C-index of 0.796(95%CI:0.701-0.890),suggesting that the model had good discriminatory ability,and the calibration curve showed that the model had good calibration ability,suggesting that the model had certain predictive efficacy.Conclusion Young female individuals,elevated ALBI score,and comorbidity with hepatic encephalopathy are independent risk factors for POPH in patients with liver cirrhosis,and the predictive model established based on these factors has a certain clinical application value.

Background and objective Lacking of typical symptoms, more than 70% of patients with lung cancer are diagnosed as advanced-stage disease. Patients suffer from solid organs metastasis with different clinical features and prog-nosis. With development of new technology, more and more lung cancer patients are diagnosed with pancreatic metastasis. The aim of this study was to investigate clinicopathologic and survival difference by retrospective analysis among lung cancer patients with pancreatic metastases.Methods Of the patients with lung cancer diagnosed by pathology and thorough staging evaluation and treated at Beijing Cancer Hospital with long follow-up during July 1996 and June 2017, 35 cases had pancreatic metastases.Results There were 28 cases diagnosed as small cell lung cancer, 3 cases diagnosed as adenocarcinoma and 4 cases diagnosed as squamous cell carcinoma. There were 15 cases with pancreatic metastases in head of pancreas and 20 cases in body and tail of pancreas, 23 cases presented with isolated metastasis and 12 cases with multiple metastases. Pathological type was prognostic factor for lung cancer patients with pancreatic metastases.Conclusion Pancreatic metastases represents an uncommon site of extrathoracic spread of disease for part of patients with advanced lung cancer. Lung cancer with pancreatic metastases should be treated by combined therapy, especially by systemic chemotherapy. Pathological type was prognostic fac-tor for lung cancer patients with pancreatic metastases.

Objectives:To understand the awareness rate and its influencing factors of their HBV infection status among HBsAg-positive persons aged 15-69 years in China.Methods:A cross-sectional design was used to conduct a questionnaire survey on the awareness of their infection status among HBsAg-positive persons aged 15-69 years who were identified in the 2020 national hepatitis B seroepidemiology survey. The awareness rate of the whole respondent and respondents with different characteristics were described, and the differences were compared with the χ2 test. The logistic regression model was used to analyze the factors influencing the awareness rate. Results:The overall awareness rate among the respondents was 43.10% (1 828/4 241). The awareness rate was lower in males than in females (41.30% vs. 44.65%). The awareness rate was lower in the 60-69-years-old age group than in other age groups (30.38% vs. 36.77%-57.58%). The awareness rate was lower in rural areas than in urban areas (39.43% vs. 47.32%). The awareness rate was lower in regions with a per capita gross domestic product (GDP) below RMB 54 000 than in regions with a per capita GDP of RMB 54 000 and above (36.81% vs. 41.61%-50.30%). The awareness rate was lower in respondents without other liver diseases than with other liver diseases (41.52% vs. 60.68%). The awareness rate was lower in respondents without a family history of hepatitis B-related disease or unknown family history than with a family history (43.58% vs. 68.26%; 24.71% vs. 68.26%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that male [odds ratio ( OR)=0.841, 95% confidence interval ( CI): 0.734-0.964], high school and below [primary school and below, junior middle school, high school/technical secondary school, OR (95% CI): 0.247 (0.190-0.321), 0.451 (0.352-0.577), 0.634 (0.486-0.827)], rural areas ( OR=0.822, 95% CI: 0.715-0.945) and regions with a per capita GDP below RMB 80 000 [54 000-80 000, OR (95% CI): 0.810 (0.688-0.954), below RMB 54 000, OR (95% CI): 0.793 (0.669-0.941)] were the negative factors influencing the awareness rate. While 30-39-years-old ( OR=2.089, 95% CI: 1.626-2.683) and 40-49-years-old ( OR=1.590, 95% CI: 1.250-2.023) age groups, with other liver diseases ( OR=2.244, 95% CI: 1.754-2.871) and family history related to hepatitis B ( OR=2.688, 95% CI: 2.242-3.223) were the positive factors influencing the awareness rate. Conclusion:The overall awareness rate of their infection status among HBsAg-positive persons aged 15-69 years is 43.10% in China. Health promotion and coverage expansion on HBV screening should be further strengthened to achieve the proposed World Health Organization's target of 90% HBV infection diagnosis rate by 2030.

Objective:To survey the perceived social support status and influencing factors of medical staffs working in community health service institutions in Shanghai Minhang District .Methods:The study was a cross-sectional study. From September 2022 to January 2023, a survey on the status of perceived social support was conducted among 181 medical staffs working in community health service institutions in Shanghai Minhang District. The self-designed general information questionnaire, perceived social support scale, general self-efficacy scale, quality of professional life scale, and trait coping style scale were used in the survey. The effects of demographic characteristics, general self-efficacy, empathy fatigue and trait coping style on perceived social support status of community medical workers were analyzed.Results:A total of 181 questionnairs were distributed and 178 valid ones returned with a valid recovery rate of 98.3%. In three dimensions of perceived social support, family support scored (17.11±8.87), friend support scored (17.08±8.41), other support scored (19.89±4.09), and the total score of understanding social support was (60.99±11.71). There were 2 cases of low support status (1.12%), 81 cases of intermediate support status (45.51%), and 95 cases of high support status (53.37%). Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in perceived social support among participants with different ages, marriage status, majors, professional titles, job satisfaction, positive or negative coping styles, general self-efficacy, and empathy fatigue ( P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that people aged 40 and above had a higher degree of perceived social support than those under 40 ( OR=2.792, 95% CI: 1.051-7.418, P<0.05); compared with public health professionals, clinical medicine, nursing and other medical technique professionals had a higher degree of perceived social support ( OR=4.024, 95% CI: 1.479-10.953; OR=2.941, 95% CI: 1.031-8.393; OR=3.996, 95% CI: 0.543-29.409, all P<0.05); compared with those who were less satisfied with their self-assessment work, participants who were more satisfied or generally satisfied with their self-assessment work had lower perceived social support ( OR=0.200, 95% CI: 0.051-0.781; OR=0.320, 95% CI: 0.146-0.701, all P<0.05); compared with those with mild and moderate empathy fatigue, participants with high empathy fatigue had lower perceived social support ( OR=0.406, 95% CI: 0.182-0.909, P<0.05). Except supporting primary and secondary traumatic stress, the total score of perceived social support and its dimensions were positively correlated with empathy satisfaction; and negatively correlated with job burnout and secondary traumatic stress. Regression analysis shows that empathy satisfaction had a positive predictive effect on overall scores of perceived social support and its dimensions of friend support and other support capacity. Conclusions:The social support status of community healthcare workers in Shanghai Minhang district is generally acceptable. However, it is important to pay special attention to the social support status of those who are under 40 years old, have a background in public health, are satisfied with their work, and experience a high level of empathy fatigue. Measures should be implemented to specifically enhance empathy satisfaction among healthcare workers; timely guidance and intervention should be provided accordingly.

Objective: To investigate the changes of plasma protein expression profile in hyperhomocysteinemia rats and the protective effect of highly expressed angiopoietin 1 in plasma on endothelial cells. Methods: The hyperhomocysteinemia animal model was established. The difference in plasma protein content was analyzed by label-free protein spectroscopy. The effects of homocysteine and angiopoietin 1 on endothelial cell migration and proliferation were detected by wound healing and CCK-8 proliferation assay. Results: The results of protein profiling showed that 5 proteins were significantly up-regulated and 17 proteins were significantly down-regulated in the plasma of hyperhomocysteinemia rats, among which angiopoietin 1 was significantly up-regulated. In endothelial cells in the superior mesenteric artery of rats, treatment with 30 or 50 μmol/L homocysteine for 24 h significantly inhibited the migration and proliferation. Angiopoietin 1(600 ng/ml) significantly reduced the migration and proliferation of endothelial cells inhibited by 30 μmol/L homocysteine, but had no significant effect on the migration and proliferation of endothelial cells inhibited by 50 μmol/L homocysteine. Conclusion Hyperhomocysteinemia can significantly affect the protein expression profile in plasma. Angiopoietin 1 in plasma can compensate for the damage of vascular endothelial migration and proliferation function caused by homocysteine in a certain concentration range.
