Objective:To comprehensively evaluate the tricuspid valve, right heart anatomical characteristics and related dynamic parameters in patients with different degrees of functional tricuspid regurgitation (FTR) using four-dimensional auto tricuspid valve quantitative(4D Auto TVQ), four-dimensional auto right ventricle quantitative(4D Auto RVQ), and four-dimensional auto left atrium quantitative(4D Auto LAQ), and to investigate the structural and functional changes of the tricuspid valve and right heart in them.Methods:Sixty-three patients with FTR diagnosed by echocardiography at the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from February to July 2022 were prospectively selected as the case group, including 30 patients with mild FTR and 33 patients with moderate or above FTR, and 30 healthy subjects were selected as the control group. Transthoracic echocardiography was used for two-dimensional and three-dimensional image acquisition of the heart. The tricuspid regurgitation volume, left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), right ventricular global strain (RVGS) were measured by 2D images, and pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) were measured from the tricuspid regurgitation pressure difference. The 3D images were imported into EchoPAC 204 to obtain the tricuspid valve, right heart structure and related dynamic parameters. The annulus area (AA), annulus perimeter(AP), spherical index (SI), annulus area change fraction (AC), coaptation point height (CPH), and tenting volume (TV) were measured by 4D Auto TVQ. The right atrial maximum volume (RAVmax) and right atrial minimum volume (RAVmin) were measured by 4D Auto LAQ. Right ventricular end-diastolic volume (RVEDV), right ventricular end-systolic volume (RVESV), right ventricular fractional area change (RVFAC) and tricuspid annular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE) were measured by 4D Auto RVQ. After standardizing the dimension parameters with body surface area (BSA), the differences in the above parameters were compared between the three groups, the correlation between regurgitant volume and each parameter was compared by correlation analysis, and the independent factors of increased tricuspid regurgitant volume were investigated by univariate and multivariate linear regression analysis.Results:There were statistically significant differences in PASP, AA/BSA, AP/BSA, AC, TV, RAVmax/BSA, RAVmin/BSA, RVFAC, RVGS, and TAPSE between the three groups (all P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in LVEF, CPH, RVEDV/BSA, and RVESV/BSA in the moderate and above FTR group compared with the control and mild FTR groups (all P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that RAVmin was the most highly correlated with tricuspid regurgitant volume ( r=0.875, P<0.001) and TV and end-systolic annulus area(ESAA) were highly correlated with tricuspid regurgitant volume ( r=0.747, 0.683; both P<0.001) in patients with FTR. Multifactorial linear regression showed that RAVmin, TV and regurgitant volume were independently positively correlated (β=0.721, 0.205; both P<0.05). Conclusions:The four quantification technique can provide valid structural and functional information by quantifying the tricuspid valve as well as the right heart in patients with FTR, and RAVmin and TV are independent correlates of increased tricuspid regurgitant volume.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of IL3-IGH fusion gene-positive pediatric acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) with hypereosinophilia as the first presentation.Methods:The clinical data of 1 pediatric IL3-IGH fusion gene-positive ALL patient with hypereosinophilia as the first presentation in January 2021 in Fujian Medical University Union Hospital was retrospectively analyzed and relevant literature was reviewed.Results:This 11-year-old male patient underwent bone marrow examination, and results showed that the proportion of eosinophils was increased; immunophenotyping disclosed that there were about 49.4% abnormal naive B lymphocytes in bone marrow; 43 leukemia fusion genes showed all negative; the whole transcriptome sequencing showed IL3-IGH fusion gene-positive. The patient was finally diagnosed as B-ALL with IL3-IGH fusion gene. According to the Chinese Children Cancer Group (CCCG)-ALL 2020 regimen, eosinophils returned to normal after induction therapy. Bone marrow examination on day 19 of induction showed that the proportion of promyelocytes was 0.005, the proportion of eosinophils was 0.05, and the minimal residual disease (MRD) was 23.02%. Bone marrow examination on day 46 of induction showed remission, and MRD was 0.18%. Consolidation chemotherapy used CAT (cyclophosphamide 1 g/m 2 once; cytarabine 50 mg/m 2, 12 h once, 7 days in total; mercaptopurine 40 mg/m 2, once per night, 7 days in total) regimen. Then the patient was added with lusotinib (75 mg 12 h once) orally and continued to receive high-dose methotrexate (5 g/m 2) regimen chemotherapy for 2 courses, the MRD was 0.20%. Chimeric antigen receptor T-cell (CAR-T) regimen was administered, followed by negative MRD. Conclusions:IL3-IGH fusion gene ALL is more frequently found in males, and more common in older children and young adults. It is prone to organ infiltration damage, and it has a high rate of induction failure and recurrence as well as poor prognosis.
