[Objective]To comprehensively compare the feasibility of three different treatment strategies consisting of low-dose chemotherapy(LDC),surgery and surgery with adjuvant low-dose chemotherapy(SLDC)for children with solitary bone lesions of eosinophilic granuloma(SBL-EG).[Methods]We retrospectively reviewed the records of 149 pediatric patients with SBL-EG at our institutions from 2002 to 2014. Our study included 86 patients who received LDC ,33 patients who received surgery and 30 patients who received SLDC. The duration of hospital stay ,time to symptom relief,recovery time,cost,complications and relapse-free sur-vival(RFS)of each strategy were analyzed.[Results]Hospital stay,time to symptom relief,recovery time and cost in the LDC group were significantly shorter or less than those in the surgery or SLDC group (P < 0.05). No statistically significant differences were observed in the above-mentioned factors between the surgery and SLDC groups (P > 0.05). Chemotherapy-related adverse events in the LDC and SLDC groups included nausea(8.62%),aminotransferase elevation(7.76%),slight hair loss(4.31%), immunity decline (21.55%),growth retardation (10.34%) and moon face (7.76%). LDC and SLDC treatment resulted in a significantly longer RFS (147 months and 126 months ,respectively) than surgery alone (114 months)(P = 0.005 and 0.019 , respectively). However ,there was no statistically significant difference in RFS between the LDC and SLDC groups (P = 0.732).[Conclusions]Compared with surgery or SLDC,LDC appears to promote more rapid recovery,less invasion,increase safety and eco-nomic treatment strategy for pediatric patients with SBL-EG.

Objective:To evaluate the role of ferroptosis in hypoxia-reoxygenation (H/R) injury in cardiomyocytes cultured in high-fat high-glucose (HFHG) medium.Methods:Cardiomyocytes H9c2 cells were commonly cultured and divided into 3 groups ( n=20 each) using a random number table method: control group (C group), HFHG-H/R group and Ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1) plus HFHG-H/R group (Fer-1+ HFHG+ H/R group). H9c2 cells were cultured in a HFHG medium for 12 h and then exposed to 1%O 2-5%CO 2-94%N 2 for 4 h, followed by 2 h reoxygenation in a cell incubator.Fer-1 at a final concentration of 10 μmol/L was added while the cells were cultured in the HFHG medium in group Fer-1+ HFHG+ H/R.At 2 h of reoxygenation, the cell viability was measured using CCK-8 assay, the activity of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in the supernatant was measured using 2, 4-dinitrophenylhydrazine color method, the activity of reactive oxygen species (ROS) was measured by fluorescent probe DCFH-DA flow cytometry, and the expression of acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 (ACSL4), nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4), and glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) was detected by Western blot. Results:Compared with group C, the cell viability was significantly decreased, the activities of LDH release and ROS were increased, and the expression of ACSL4 and NCOA4 was up-regulated ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the expression of GPX4 in group HFHG+ H/R ( P>0.05). Compared with group HFHG+ H/R, the cell activity was significantly increased, the activities of LDH and ROS were decreased, and the expression of ACSL4 and NCOA4 was down-regulated ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the expression of GPX4 in Fer-1+ HFHG+ H/R group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Ferroptosis is involved in the process of H/R injury in cardiomyocytes cultured in HFHG medium.

Nursing students are new resources of clinical nursing service, the professional education training of competency regarding nursing quality and safety are necessary and important. This paper aims to analyze the education framework and research progress of foreign nursing quality and safety competence, and provide the references for Chinese education system of cultivating nursing students' nursing quality and safety competence in combination with current Chinese education situation.

Objective:To retrospectively analyze the treatment status of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) in newly diagnosed patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in China.Methods:Data of chronic phase (CP) and accelerated phase (AP) CML patients diagnosed from January 2006 to December 2022 from 77 centers, ≥18 years old, and receiving initial imatinib, nilotinib, dasatinib or flumatinib-therapy within 6 months after diagnosis in China with complete data were retrospectively interrogated. The choice of initial TKI, current TKI medications, treatment switch and reasons, treatment responses and outcomes as well as the variables associated with them were analyzed.Results:6 893 patients in CP ( n=6 453, 93.6%) or AP ( n=440, 6.4%) receiving initial imatinib ( n=4 906, 71.2%), nilotinib ( n=1 157, 16.8%), dasatinib ( n=298, 4.3%) or flumatinib ( n=532, 7.2%) -therapy. With the median follow-up of 43 ( IQR 22-75) months, 1 581 (22.9%) patients switched TKI due to resistance ( n=1 055, 15.3%), intolerance ( n=248, 3.6%), pursuit of better efficacy ( n=168, 2.4%), economic or other reasons ( n=110, 1.6%). The frequency of switching TKI in AP patients was significantly-higher than that in CP patients (44.1% vs 21.5%, P<0.001), and more AP patients switched TKI due to resistance than CP patients (75.3% vs 66.1%, P=0.011). Multi-variable analyses showed that male, lower HGB concentration and ELTS intermediate/high-risk cohort were associated with lower cytogenetic and molecular responses rate and poor outcomes in CP patients; higher WBC count and initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher response rates; Ph + ACA at diagnosis, poor PFS. However, Sokal intermediate/high-risk cohort was only significantly-associated with lower CCyR and MMR rates and the poor PFS. Lower HGB concentration and larger spleen size were significantly-associated with the lower cytogenetic and molecular response rates in AP patients; initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher treatment response rates; lower PLT count, higher blasts and Ph + ACA, poorer TFS; Ph + ACA, poorer OS. Conclusion:At present, the vast majority of newly-diagnosed CML-CP or AP patients could benefit from TKI treatment in the long term with the good treatment responses and survival outcomes.
