Background:Although sustainable control since 1950s has achieved great successes,schistosomiasis japonica remains a major public health problem in China.Since 2004,a new integrated strategy was developed aiming to control the transmission of Schistosoma japonicum through the implementation of a package of interventions.To date,no systematic review or meta-analysis assessing the effectiveness of this new integrated strategy for schistosomiasis control in China has been published.We performed a PubMed-based bibliometric assessment of publications on the new integrated strategy for schistosomiasis japonica control in China,to understand the global transmissibility and sharing of the new integrated strategy.Methods:An in-depth bibliometric analysis of all publications on the new integrated strategy for schistosomiasis japonica control in China was performed through a PubMed search using the terms "schistosomiasis" and "China,"from January 1,2004 to August 31,2018.All titles and abstracts were read carefully,and the publications reporting the effectiveness,experiences,lessons,or problems of the new integrated strategy were included in the bibliometric analysis.Results:Overall,2,361 titles were screened,and 70 eligible publications were accessed for analyses,including 23 studies in English,published in 15 international journals,and 47 studies in Chinese with abstracts in English,published in 3 national journals.Chinese Journal of Schistosomiasis Control (Zhongguo Xue Xi Chong Bing Fang Zhi Za Zhi) published 60% of the research output,Research articles (48.6%) and short reports (37.1%) were the dominant manuscript types.Furthermore,471 contributing authors from 277 affiliations across 9 countries produced these 70 publications.Conclusion:This is the first PubMed-based quantitative analysis of the research output of the new integrated strategy,and our data indicate a low global transmissibility of Chinese new integrated strategy.We therefore call for more research outputs of the new integrated strategy for schistosomiasis japonica control in China to be communicated through international platforms.

Objective:To investigate the treatment outcome of chemotherapy regimens containing azacitidine and mitoxantrone liposome in the treatment of angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL).Methods:The clinical data of 1 AITL patient with severe clinical symptoms admitted to Weihai Municipal Hospital in July 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, and the relevant literatures were reviewed.Results:The 74-year-old male patient was presented with the manifestations of rash, lymph node enlargement, bloating and fever. He was pathologically diagnosed as AITL by lymph node biopsy. In the early stage of treatment, due to severe clinical symptoms and poor therapeutic effect, the treatment regimens were constantly adjusted. CHOPE, etoposide + chidamide + thalidomide +dexamethasone + cyclosporine, brentuximab vedotin + bendamustine + dexamethasone + cyclosporine + thalidomide +chidamide regimens were used successively, and the disease progressed after short-term complete remission. Finally complete remission was obtained again after a multi-drug combination regimens containing azacitidine and mitoxantrone liposome, following the maintenance treatment of azacitidine combined with chidamide, and the disease condition of the patient remained stable.Conclusions:The chemotherapy regimens containing azacitidine and mitoxantrone liposome can achieve a good therapeutic effect for relapsed/refractory AITL.

Objective:To investigate the early warning value of transcutaneous oxygen pressure and transcutaneous carbon dioxide pressure (TcPO 2/TcPCO 2) monitoring in patients with pressure injury in ICU. Methods:A prospective clinical observation study was conducted. Patients were selected in the department of critical care medicine of Shenzhen Hospital Affiliated to University of Chinese Academy of Sciences from December 2020 to June 2022. The general information of all patients were recorded. The data of TcPO 2 and TcPCO 2 were monitored respectively in left lying position, supine position and right lying position. According to the Braden score of patients, they were divided into low risk group and high risk group, and the monitoring results of TcPO 2/TcPCO 2 were analyzed. Results:The study included a total of 80 patients, with 46 patients in the low risk group and 34 patients in the high risk group. There were no significant differences in gender and age between the two groups (both P>0.05). There were significant differences in the Braden score and the incidence of pressure injury between the two groups (both P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in TcPO 2 at various time points in the left lying position, supine position and right lying position between the low risk and the high risk groups (all P<0.001). Except for the 15th minute of the left lying position and right lying position, there were statistically significant differences in TcPCO2 at all other time points in the supine and right lying positions between two groups (all P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in TcPO 2/TcPCO 2 values at various time points in different positions between two groups (all P<0.001). In supine position, TcPO 2 and TcPO 2/TcPCO 2 were positively correlated with the Braden score ( r=0.680, 0.741). TcPCO 2 was negatively correlated with the Braden score ( r=-0.771). The Braden score, TcPO 2, TcPCO 2 and TcPO 2/TcPCO 2 all have moderate diagnostic value. The cut-off values were 12.50, 41.48 mmHg, 52.29 mmHg and 0.91, respectively. And the AUC were 0.899, 0.727, 0.816 and 0.719, respectively. However, there were no significant differences in AUC between the TcPO 2, TcPCO 2, TcPO 2/TcPCO 2 and Braden score (all P>0.05). Conclusions:TcPO 2, TcPCO 2 and TcPO 2/TcPCO 2 values all have higher diagnostic value about pressure injury for patients in ICU. TcPO 2/TcPCO 2 monitoring has early risk warning value for the occurrence of pressure injury in ICU, which is worthy of clinical promotion.

Objective:This study aimed to evaluate the maintenance therapy following an anti-CD19-CAR T-cell therapy for a B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patient who relapsed after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) and investigate the effect of donor stem cells and donor T lymphocyte infusion on the amplification of CD19 CAR-T cells.Methods:One refractory B-ALL patient relapsed after murine CD19 CAR-T cell therapy followed by a sibling allo-HSCT. He underwent a humanized CD19 CAR-T cell therapy followed by donor stem cell and donor T lymphocytes infusions as maintenance therapy in our hospital. The level of cytokines, the proportion of CD19 CAR-T cell, the level of CAR19 DNA expression in the peripheral blood, and the proportion of leukemia cells and donor chimerism in the bone marrow were detected. Correspondingly, T lymphocytes from the C57 spleen were separated to modify the CD19 CAR lentivirus and refused into C57 mice, and after 14 days, the B lymphocytes from C57 mice were separated and refused into the same C57 mice. The CD19 CAR T cells, B cells, and CD19 CAR gene counts in the peripheral blood were evaluated at different time points.Results:①The patient achieved a complete response (CR) 14 days after a humanized CD19 CAR-T therapy with grade 1 cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and restored a donor chimerism to 99.76%. ② Following the remission from humanized CD19 CAR-T therapy, the patient received a maintenance therapy of donor stem cell infusion. Mild graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) manifested 24 days after infusion with an increased proportion of CD19 CAR-T cells and an increased level of CAR19 DNA expression in the peripheral blood. It fell with the remission of GVHD. The patient maintained CR and 99.69% donor chimerism during this period. ③ Throughout the subsequent donor T lymphocytes maintenance therapy, mild GVHD surfaced12 days after infusion without an increased proportion of CD19 CAR-T cells and an increased level of CAR19 DNA expression in the peripheral blood. The patient maintained CR and 99.87% donor chimerism during this period. ④ In vivo experiments on C57 mice confirmed that the proportion of CD19 CAR-T cells and the level of CAR19 DNA expression were upregulated in mice following CAR-T cell infusion, accompanied by depletion of CD19 + B lymphocyte. After infusion of CD19 + B lymphocyte cells, an increased proportion of CD19 CAR-T cells and an increased level of CAR19 DNA expression in the peripheral blood were observed again. Conclusions:The infusion of donor stem cells and donor T lymphocytes could be used as a maintenance treatment after CD19 CAR-T cell therapy for B-ALL patients who relapsed after allo-HSCT. Infusion of donor stem cells induced an increased proportion of CD19 CAR-T cells and an increased level of CAR19 DNA expression with the occurrence of GVHD. It might lead to further elimination of minimal residual disease.

Objective:To observe the efficacy and safety of humanized anti-BCMA chimeric antigen receptor modified (BCMA CAR) -T cell therapy after disease progression with their murine BCMA CAR-T cell therapy in patients with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (MM) .Methods:Study participants underwent leukapheresis to collect T cells for BCMA CAR-T manufacturing. Patients were pretreated with intensive chemotherapy (fludarabine combined with cytarabine) before CAR-T therapy. Adverse events (AEs) , CAR DNA expansion, and cytokine were monitored. In vitro, transfection efficacy, specific cytotoxicity, and inflammatory response were detected when co-cultured with effector and target cells.Results:Patient (PT) 1 and 2 achieved complete remission (CR) and disease stability at 3 months post murine CAR-T therapy. However, 16 and 18 months later, they experienced progression of disease (PD) , and patient 1 presented with extramedullary disease at PD. Both of the patients received humanized CAR-T therapy and achieved partial remission (PR) and very good partial remission (VGPR) post humanized CAR-T therapy. PT1 achieved CR of the soft tissue masses at 4 months post humanized CAR-T therapy. Notably, the median peak of the BCMA CAR-T cells, copy of BCMA CAR gene, persistence of BCMA CAR-T, and the peak levels of IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, IFN-γ and TNF-α were higher in humanized CAR-T therapy than those in the murine CAR-T therapy. During the murine CAR-T therapy, both of the patients experienced grade 1 CRS and no ICANS. PT1 experienced grade 3 CRS and grade 2 ICANS during humanized CAR-T therapy, which were relieved by supportive care. Grade 2 CRS was observed for patient 2 during humanized CAR-T therapy. Humanized BCMA CAR-T cells showed a higher inflammatory response and in vitro cytotoxicity than that of murine BCMA CAR-T cells with effector/targets cells at 1∶1 over 48 hours ( P<0.001) . The proportions of residual cells in humanized BCMA CAR-T and murine CAR-T were (17.38±5.18) % vs (28.27±4.58) %, (13.25±1.62) % vs (22.77±1.77) % for PT1 and PT2, respectively. Conclusions:The humanized BCMA CAR-T cell therapy was efficient and safe for patients who experienced progression of disease after the murine CAR-T therapy, especially for patients with extramedullary disease.

Objective:To observe the local reactions and efficacy of CD19 CAR-T therapy in recurrence/refractory B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (R/R NHL) patients with >7.5 cm lesions.Methods:32 R/R NHL patients with >7.5 cm lesions were enrolled and injected with CD19 CAR-T cells. Flow cytometry was used to detect and observe the amplification of CD19 CAR-T cells in vivo. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect cytokines in peripheral blood of patients. The side effects of CD19 CAR-T cell therapy included systemic side effects and local reactions of tumor. The local side effects were observed by Ultrasound, Computed tomography and Magnetic resonance imaging. Treatment options included glucocorticoid, interleukin-6 antibody and drainage of exudate. Overall response rate (ORR) and overall survival rate (OS) were observed.Results:①Among the 32 patients, CR (40.63%) , PR (31.25%) and ORR (71.88%) were 13, 10 and 23, respectively. ②In all 23 patients received ORR, 13 patients had grade 1-2 CRS, while 10 patients had grade 3-4 CRS. All the 9 patients in the SD+PD group had grade 1-2 CRS ( P=0.030) . ③A total of 15 patients with tumor local reactions, included 9 patients with CR, 5 patients with PR and 1 patient with SD. The local reactions of the tumor included that the diameter of the superficial lesions increased with redness, swelling and heat pain. The deep lesions presented abdominal pain, abdominal distension, suffocation and local pain, and burning of the tumor. The deep lesions were enlarged or accompanied by local edema. The local exudative lesions were found in the abdominal cavity and pleural cavity. ④ Peak proportion of CD19 CAR-T cells in ORR group was higher than that of in SD+PD group[16.8% (5.3%-48.2%) vs 2.9% (1.5%-5.7%) , z=-4.297, P<0.001]. The peak proportion of CD19 CAR-T cells in ORR group with local reactions was higher than that of in patients without local reactions [22.2% (10.5%-48.2%) vs 12.6% (5.3%-21.6%) , z=-3.213, P=0.001]. The peak proportion of CD19 CAR-T cells in multiple lesion group was higher than that of in single lesion group [35.8% (1.5%-48.2%) vs 16.8% (10.5%-18.5%) , z=-2.023, P=0.040]. ⑤Occurrence of local reactions and tumor shrinkage time were both delayed compared with systemic side effects. ⑥In the ORR group, the OS of patients with tumor local reactions was longer than that of patients without tumor local reactions, but there was no difference in the two groups (75% vs 34.6%, P=0.169) . Conclusions:CD19 CAR-T cell therapy in R/R NHL patients with >7.5 cm lesions might cause tumor local reactions later than systemic side effects.Clinicaltrial::ChiCTR1800018059

OBJECTIVE To study the moderation effect of water extract of Farfarae Flos on blood lipid and glucose regulation in obese mice. METHODS Chemical method was used to identify the components of the water extract of Farfarae Flos. The contents of total terpenes in the water extract of the Farfarae Flos were determined by UV-VIS spectrophotometry. The mice were randomly divided into blank group, model group, orlistat group, and low-dose, medium-dose, and high-dose groups of water extract of Farfarae Flos. The blank group was fed with ordinary diet, while the other groups were fed with high-fat and high-sugar diet to establish an obese animal model, and they were administration while molding for 45 d. At the end of the experiment, the contents of serum triglyceride(TG), cholesterol(CHO), high-density lipoprotein-C(HDL-C), low-density lipoprotein-C(LDL-C), glucose(GLU), and glycosylated serum protein(GSP) were detected. Hematoxylin-eosin(HE) and oil red O staining were used to observe the morphological changes and lipid droplet distribution of liver tissue in mice. RESULTS There were flavonoids and terpenoids in the water extract of the flower. Compared with the blank group, the levels of TG, CHO, LDL-C, GLU and GSP in the model group were significantly increased(P<0.05 or P<0.01), HDL-C was significantly decreased(P<0.05), and the area of lipid droplets in the liver was significantly increased(P<0.01). Compared with the model group, TG, LDL-C, CHO, GLU and GSP levels in the Farfarae Flos water extract groups were significantly decreased, HDL-C was increased, and lipid droplet accumulation were reduced. Compared with the model group, the blood lipid and blood glucose levels in the treatment groups were significantly decreased, among them, the high-dose group of the water extract of Farfarae Flos had the best effect. CONCLUSION The water extract of farfara can improve glucose and lipid metabolism in obese mice by reducing blood lipids, CHO, and improving the pathological morphology of liver tissue.
