Objective To assess the mental health status of the pregnant women with missed abor-tion, as well as related influencing factors, and to provide the basis for mental nursing. Methods 100 pregnant women with missed abortion were chosen as the observation group by convenience sampling, while other 100 normal pregnant women as the control group. The mental state of the pregnant women in both groups was evaluated by using symptom checklist-90 (SCL-90), the results of which were then studied in contrast using t test and variance analysis. Results The total scores and the average scores of pregnant women in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group. The mental health status of pregnant women with missed abortion was influenced by age, education degree, and the times of pregnancy. Conclusions There are significant mental health problems in pregnant women with missed abortion, to which should be paid much attention. And the psychological counseling should be carried out in time in case of detrimental influences in treatment, rehabilitation, and next pregnancy.

Eukaryotes inhibit the translation of mRNA under stress conditions and form particles-stress granules (stress granules). At present, stress granules have been proved to be related to the occurrence and development of a variety of diseases, including tumors. The production of stress granules is promoted by microenvironment such as hypoxia and hyperactive oxygen in tumor cells, while stress granules-related proteins such as G3BP1, RACK1, YB-1 and mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) can promote the occurrence and metastasis of tumors, but the mechanism is not yet clear. In addition, studies have linked the formation of stress granules to the survival of tumor cells during chemotherapy, and believe that stress granules play a role in the treatment of tumors by different anti-tumor drugs. This review introduces the biological characteristics of stress granules and their relationship with tumors.

Objective:To investigate the treatment methods of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL).Methods:The clinical data of 251 newly treated PTCL patients in the First Hospital of Jilin University from August 2011 to October 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, from which 168 patients were intercepted from February 2015 (the first targeted drug of PTCL, chidamide, was launched in China) to October 2021, among which 20 patients received chemotherapy combined with brentuximab vedotin (BV, BV group), 37 patients received chemotherapy combined with chidamide (chidamide group), and 111 patients received non-targeted therapy (non-targeted therapy group); all patients received ≥2 courses of treatment. Ten patients received autologous peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, with non-transplanted patients in the same period as controls. The clinical efficacy and prognosis of patients with different treatment methods were analyzed. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis and log-rank test was performed.Results:Of all 251 patients with PTCL, 26.7% (67/251) received targeted therapy in combination with chemotherapy. In the chidamide group, the efficacy could be evaluated in 36 cases, with an overall response rate (ORR) of 91.7% (33/36); in the non-targeted therapy group, the efficacy could be evaluated in 88 cases, with an ORR of 71.6% (63/88); in the BV group, 20 cases were evaluable, with an ORR of 75.0% (15/20). The difference in ORR between the non-targeted therapy group and the chidamide group was statistically significant ( χ2 = 5.89, P = 0.015), and the difference in ORR between the non-targeted therapy group and the BV group was not statistically significant ( χ2 = 0.09, P = 0.759). The 1-year progression-free survival (PFS) rates were 79.9%, 88.2% and 64.2%, and the 1-year overall survival (OS) rates were 85.7%, 89.7% and 70.1% in the chidamide, BV and non-targeted therapy groups, respectively; the PFS and OS in the chidamide and BV groups were better than those in the non-targeted therapy group (all P < 0.05), and the adverse effects were mostly tolerable. Among patients treated with chemotherapy combined with BV, the ORR of patients with CD30 expression rate <60% and ≥60% were 54.5% (6/11) and 100.0% (9/9), and the difference was statistically significant ( P = 0.038). In the 10 hematopoietic stem cell transplanted patients and 50 non-transplanted patients, 1-year PFS rates were 87.5% and 59.5%, 1-year OS rates were 90.0% and 67.1%, and the differences were not statistically significant (both P > 0.05). Conclusions:Chemotherapy-based combination therapy is the main treatment methods for PTCL, and chemotherapy combined with chidamide or BV targeted therapy and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation can improve the long-term survival of PTCL patients.
