Objective:To explore the expression of insulin-like growth factor-binding protein related protein 1(IGFBP-rP1) gene in children with acute leukemia and its potential significance. Methods:Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (RFQ-PCR) method was used for detecting IGFBP-rP1 mRNA expression in bone marrow (BM) cells of 168 children with acute leukemia. The results were compared with those of 30 non-leukemia children in control group. Meanwhile the relationship between IGFBP-rP1 expression level and clinical prognosis was analyzed according to clinical prognostic factors of children acute leukemia. Results:Expression level of IGFBP-rP1 in initial acute leukemia children was significantly higher than that of non leukemia children (P<0.01). It was higher in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) than in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL)(P =0.013). The transcription level of IGFBP-rP1 mRNA in patients who had complete remission (CR) were lowest, which was nearly the same as non-leukemia childish patients. It increased again when leukemia relapsed, which was significantly higher than that in CR. However, as far as ALL was concerned, IGFBP-rP1 expression levels had no significant difference between newly-diagnosed, complete remission, and recurrent groups.Conclusion:IGFBP-rP1 may be involved in the initiation and development of childish leukemia. It has the potential to become a new target for AML treatment.

Objective To analyze the pregnancy outcomes of fetal tetralogy of Fallot and to explore its prenatal diagnosis and treatment procedures. Methods The clinical data of 63 cases of fetal tetralogy of Fallot (62 cases were singleton and 1 case was one of twin) were collected retrospectively from November, 2013 to November, 2017 in Beijing Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital. Results (1) Totally, 63 cases out of 46 352 pregnancies were diagnosed fetal tetralogy of Fallot by fetal ultrasonic cardiogram with about 0.136%(63/46 352) occurrence rate, and the mean gestational age was (23±3) weeks. And 50 cases (79%, 50/63) terminated pregnancy by induced labour. (2) Totally, 57 cases (90%,57/63) accepted genetic diagnosis.Eight cases (13%, 8/63) existed chromosome abnormality including 21-trimosy in 6 cases, 18-trisomy in 1 case and 22q11.2 microdeletion syndrome in 1 case; and these 8 cases were determined before 28 gestational weeks. (3) And 13 cases (21%, 13/63) of no fetal genetic abnormality selected to continue pregnancy. Twelve cases underwent full term delivery (5 cases were cesarean section delivery and 7 cases were vaginal delivery). Twelve newborns underwent surgical radical operation on heart malformation and got recovery. One case underwent preterm cesarean section at 35 gestational weeks for one of twin, and the newborn with tetralogy of Fallot was dead. The other the newborns survived and were followed up for tetralogy of Fallot surgery from 1 month to 3 years old after birth and recovered.Conclusions Fetal tetralogy of Fallot mainly is diagnosed by ultrasonic cardiogram in the second trimester. The gestational age of diagnosis may be as early as 15 gestational weeks. Fetal tetralogy of Fallot with no genetic abnormality could underwent radical heart malformation operation after birth. It is necessary to undergo genetic testing on fetal tetralogy of Fallot and prenatal multidisciplinary counseling as well.

Objective To study the relationship between sdLDL-C level and CHD.Methods Two hundred and thirty-one CHD patients were divided into carotid stenosis group (n=119) and carotid stenosis-free group (n=112).The relationship between serum sdLDL-C level and risk factors for CHD were analyzed by logistic stepwise regression analysis.Results The serum sdLDL-C level was significantly higher in carotid stenosis group than in carotid stenosis-free group (P<0.05).The elevated rate of serum sdLDL-C level was significantly higher in carotid stenosis group than in carotid stenosis-free group when 1.39 mmol/L was set as its upper limit reference cutoff value (36.3% vs 17.0%,P<0.05).The serum levels of TC,LDL-C,apoB,D-dimer and Fib were significantly higher while those of HDL-C were significantly lower in carotid stenosis group than in carotid stenosis-free grou (P<0.05).The serum levels of sdLDL-C were positively related with those of TC,LDL-C,apoB,D-dimer,Fib and negatively related with those of HDL-C (P<0.01).Logistic stepwise regression analysis showed that TC,LDL-C,apoB,D-dimer,Fib and sdLDL-C were the independent risk factors for CHD (P<0.05).Conclusion Serum sdLDL-C level is significantly higher in CHD patients and is thus an important risk factor for CHD.

Objective To retrospectively evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of brentuximab vedotin(BV) combined with chemotherapy in the treatment of malignant lymphoma. Methods We collected the data of 32 lymphoma patients with CD30-positive status, including 14 cases of Hodgkin's lymphomas, 2 cases of diffuse large B-cell lymphomas, and 16 cases of mature T/NK cell lymphomas. Chemotherapy combined with BV was administered to all patients for a minimum of two cycles. The efficacy of the treatment was evaluated according to Lugano criteria every two cycles. Results Complete response rate and overall response rate after four cycles of treatment were 22% and 50%, respectively. Sixteen cases (50.0%) had grades 1 and 2 toxicity, and 16 cases (50.0%) had grade 3 toxicity or higher. The most common adverse events were neutropenia (50.0%), pneumonia (46.9%), and anemia (43.8%). The most common grade 3 or higher adverse events were pneumonia (18.8%) and febrile neutropenia (12.5%). Four patients discontinued brentuximab vedotin because of severe adverse events. Conclusion BV is effective in treating relapsed and refractory CD30- positive Hodgkin's lymphoma and peripheral T-cell lymphoma, and its overall safety is acceptable.

Femoral neck fracture (FNF) in the elderly patients is currently a major health challenge worldwide, with excessive consumption of medical resources, high incidence of complications as well as suboptimal outcome and prognosis. Hip joint arthroplasty (HJA) has been the mainstream treatment for FNF in the elderly, but the conventional surgical approaches and techniques are still confronted with a series of bottlenecks such as dislocation, limp and limb length discrepancy. In recent years, direct anterior approach (DAA) for HJA (DAA-HJA) has been a major new choice in the field of joint replacement, which achieves improved clinical effectiveness of HJA in the treatment of elderly FNF, due to the fact that DAA approach involves the neuromuscular interface and accords with the idea of soft tissue retention and enhanced recovery after surgery. However, there is still a lack of unified understanding of standard technique and procedure of DAA-HJA in the treatment of elderly FNF. Therefore, relevant experts from the Hip Joint Group of Chinese Orthopedics Association of Chinese Medical Association, Youth Arthrology Group of Orthopedic Committee of PLA, Orthopedic Committee of Chongqing Medical Association, Branch of Orthopedic Surgeons of Chongqing Medical Doctor Association and Sport Medicine Committee of Chongqing Medical Association were organized to formulate the " Chinese expert consensus on the technical standard of direct anterior hip arthroplasty for elderly femoral neck fracture ( version 2023)" based on evidence-based medicine. This consensus mainly proposed 13 recommendations covering indications, surgical plans, prosthesis selections, surgical techniques and processes, and postoperative management of DAA-HJA in elderly patients with FNF, aiming to promote standardized, systematic and patient-specific diagnosis and treatment to improve the functional prognosis of the patients.
