Objective To compare the efficacy and the side-effect of three different ways in treating the patients with malignant pleural effusion. Methods 98 patients histologically proved malignant pleural effusion were randomly divided into three groups, bleomycin group(BLM), bleomycin with mycobacterium group( BLM + UTL) and blemycin with intertleukino2 ( BLM +IL). 31 patients were treated with bleomycin intrapleural injection in BLM group,32 patients were treated with bleomycin and Utilin's(mycobacterium) intrapleural injection in BLM + ULL group and 35 patients were treated with bleomycin and intertleukin-2 intrapleural injection in BLM + IL group. The therapeutic efficacy, change of performance and side effects were compared among the three groups after one period of treatment. The changes of CEA and TNF in the pleural effusion were examined before and after treatment. Results The therapeutic efficacy and performance improvement were higher in BLM+UTL and BLM+IL group than that of BLM group(P<0. 05) ,the pleural CEA of post-treatment in three groups were lower than that of pre-treatment(P<0.01) ,the CEA after treatment in BLM+UTL group and BLM+IL group was lower than that of BLM group(P<0. 01,respectively). The pleural TNF of post-treatment in BLM+UTL and BLM+IL groups was higher than that of pre-treatment(P<0. 01 ) in BLM group. The pleural TNF of post-treatment in BLM+UTL and BLM+IL group was higher than that of BLM group ( P<0. 01 ). Conclusion Intrapleural injection of mycobacterium with bleomycin or interlekin-2 with bleomycin has better efficacy than using bleomycin only in treating malignant pleural effusion.

A CALLG2008 protocol was developed by the Chinese Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Cooperative Group for adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL).We retrospectively analyzed 153 newly diagnosed adult patients with Philadelphia chromosome (Ph)-positive ALL enrolled into imatinib (400 mg/d) plus CALLG2008 regimen between 2009 and 2015.The median age was 40 years (range,18-68 years),with 81 (52.3%) males.The overall hematologic complete remission (CR) rate was 96.7% after induction.With a median follow-up of 24.2 months,the estimated 3-year overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) rates were 49.5% (95% confidence interval (CI):38.5%-59.5%) and 49.2% (95% CI:38.3%-59.2%),respectively.Fifty-eight (36 with haploidentical donor) patients underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in first CR.Among the patients in CR1 after induction,both the 3-year OS and EFS were significantly better in the allo-HSCT group than in the without allo-HSCT group (73.2%,95% CI:58.3%-83.5% vs.22.2%,95% CI:8.7%-39.6% and 66.5%,95% CI:50.7%-78.2% vs.16.1%,95% CI:5.1%-32.7%,respectively).Multivariate analysis showed that allo-HSCT and achievement of major molecular response were associated with favorable OS or EFS independently.Interestingly,in the allo-HSCT cohort,the donor type (haploidentical versus matched donors) had no significant impact on EFS or OS.All these results suggested that imatinib plus CALLG2008 was an effective protocol for Ph-positive ALL.Haploidentical donors can also be a reasonable alternative expedient donor pool.

Objective:
To analyze the clinical characteristics caused by acute poisoning by inhalation of hydrogen chloride (HCl) and to raise awareness and treatment level of the disease.
Methods:
The clinical manifestations, imaging features, diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of 5 patients with acute HCl poisoning were analyzed retrospectively.
Results:
Among the 5 cases of HCl poisoning, 2 cases were severe poisoning, 3 cases were moderate poisoning. All patients were treated with corticosteroids and symptomatic treatment, one of them was treated with venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) . All patients were recovered and discharged from hospital.
Conclusion
The lung damage of acute poisoning by inhalation of HCl is rapidly progressing, early detection and timely medical treatment can obtain a better prognosis.
