Surgery is the main treatment for rectal cancer, which is one of influencing factors of the patients’quality of life (QoL). Factors affecting QoL in a operation include tumor location, surgical margin, operation approach, appearance of stoma, application of laparoscopy and so forth. Still, now there are lots of arguments on how operations affecting QoL. The fol-lowing is a review about patients’QoL after different rectal surgeries, including high versus lower anterior resection, anterior versus inter sphincteric resection, transanal versus open operation, anal-sparing versus stoma operation, laparoscope versus open surgery.

Objective:To investigate differences in serum uric acid levels between elderly patients with prostate cancer and patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia(BPH).Methods:A total of 300 prostate cancer patients admitted to the urology department of our hospital between Feb.2010 and Jun.2019 were retrospectively analyzed.During the same period, 240 BPH patients and 400 elderly men with normal prostate size were enrolled as the control group.Serum uric acid and prostate-specific antigen(PSA)levels, C-reactive protein(CRP), neutrophil count and lymphocyte count were determined.Serum uric acid concentrations were monitored in prostate cancer patients with different clinicopathological characteristics.Results:CRP and Neu/Lym levels were higher in the prostate cancer group than in the BPH and control groups( P<0.05). The serum uric acid level was (327.0±58.3)μmol/L in the prostate cancer group, lower than in the BPH group(375.2±68.4)μmol/L and the control group(377.8±73.2)μmol/L( F=55.69, P<0.001). Multivariable Logistic regression analysis indicated that serum uric acid was a protective factor for prostate cancer( OR=0.593, 95% CI: 0.542-0.718, P=0.004). There were significant differences in serum uric acid levels between prostate cancer patients with different ages and pathological grades( t=-4.63, F=12.73, P<0.001). However, serum uric acid levels were not significantly correlated with clinical staging or lymph node metastasis( F=-2.72 and 0.77, P=0.068 and 0.460). Conclusions:Compared with BPH patients and healthy males, serum uric acid levels are reduced and inflammatory markers are increased in prostate cancer patients, indicating that serum uric acid may be a risk factor for the occurrence and progression of prostate cancer in the elderly.

Objective To evaluate the relationship between the amount of grafted cells and the incidence of acute graft versus host disease (aGVHD) after haploid hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT). Methods Data of 68 patients who underwent haplo-HSCT from Jan 2009 to Dec 2013 were analyzed retrospectively. Influences of different factors on the incidence of Ⅲ-Ⅳ degree of aGVHD after HSCT were evaluated. Results 68 patients including 42 males and 26 females were 5/10-9/10 HLA match with 19 father donors, 24 mother donors, 16 sibling donors and 9 children donors. 51 patients not suffered Ⅲ-Ⅳdegree of aGVHD included 32 males and 19 females with the mean age of 20 years old (5-55 years old). 17 patients sufferedⅢ-Ⅳdegree of aGVHD including 10 males and 7 females with the mean age of 23 years old (5-54 years old). There were no significant differences in the amount of the grafted mononuclear cells (MNC) and CD34+cells, and the white blood cell counts (WBC) and platelet count (Plt) recovered time between two groups (P>0.05). However, MNC number was related to CD34+cell number (P<0.05) and WBC recover time (P<0.05), and the CD34+cells number was related to WBC and Plt recover time (P< 0.05). Conclusion The incidence of Ⅲ-Ⅳ degree of aGVHD is unrelated to the amount of grafted MNC, and CD34+cells.

BACKGROUND:Alogeneic hematopoietic stem cel transplantation (alo-HSCT) is an effective mean to cure severe aplastic anemia, and especialy haplotype transplantation is regarded as a transplantation system with Chinese characteristics, and rank at the international leading level. OBJECTIVE:To explore the patterns of haplotype alo-HSCT as a new immune tolerance method for severe aplastic anemia and to solve the transplantation rejection and graft-versus-host disease. METHODS:Twelve patients with severe aplastic anemia who underwent haplotype alo-HSCT at the Department of Hematology, General Hospital of Beijing Military Area, China from April 2013 to May 2014 were enroled. Al these patients received the new regimen of inducing immune tolerance through the application of high-dose cyclophosphamide (400 mg/m2, consecutively 3 days before transplantation; 50 mg/kg, consecutively 3 days after haplotype transplantation). RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The median time of neutrophil recovery was 17 (13-21) days, and the median time of platelet recovery was 21 (15-31) days. After transplantation, there were one case of degree II acute graft-versus-host disease and one case of chronic graft-versus-host disease, both of which were controled. The folow-up time was 6 months at least, and the median time was 11 months. During the folow-up, one case died of rejection reaction and one case died of severe lung infection. These findings indicate that the new method of inducing immune tolerance with high-dose cyclophosphamide after transplantation for severe aplastic anemia has significant effects in reducing graft-versus-host disease and transplantation-related mortality rate.
