Objective:To identify the risk factors for acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) undergoing haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HID-HSCT) .Methods:A total of 141 AML patients who underwent HID-HSCT at the Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, from January 2020 to July 2021 were included. The cumulative incidence of aGVHD was analyzed using the Fine-Gray competing risk model, with relapse and death as competing events, to compare differences between groups. Potential risk factors were evaluated by univariable and multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression analyses to determine their independent effects on aGVHD.Results:Among the 141 patients, 86 (61.0%) were male and 55 (39.0%) were female, with a median age at transplantation of 34 years. Within 100 days post-transplant, 59 patients developed grade Ⅱ-Ⅳ aGVHD, whereas 86 patients experienced no or grade Ⅰ aGVHD (the grade 0-Ⅰ aGVHD group) . Survival analysis showed that the 3-year overall survival was 68.7% (95% CI: 57.7%-81.9%) in the grade Ⅱ-Ⅳ aGVHD group, compared with 78.8% (95% CI: 70.4%-88.3%) in the grade 0 - Ⅰ aGVHD group, with the difference not being statistically significant ( P=0.190) . Univariable analysis identified donor age ( P=0.020, HR=1.020, 95% CI: 1.000-1.040) and the female donor-male recipient sex combination ( P=0.033, HR=1.980, 95% CI: 1.160-3.380) as risk factors for grade Ⅱ-Ⅳ aGVHD. Multivariable analysis confirmed that donor age ( P=0.005, HR=1.026, 95% CI: 1.008-1.047) and the female donor-male recipient sex combination ( P=0.002, HR=2.339, 95% CI: 1.354-4.037) were independent risk factors for aGVHD. Patients receiving grafts from donors aged >45 years had a significantly higher 100-day cumulative incidence of grade Ⅱ-Ⅳ aGVHD compared with those receiving grafts from donors ≤45 years [54.7% (95% CI: 42.3%-67.0%) vs 31.6% (95% CI: 21.0%-42.1%) , P=0.006]. Similarly, patients with the female donor-male recipient sex combination had a higher 100-day cumulative incidence of grade Ⅱ-Ⅳ aGVHD than those with other sex combinations [56.8% (95% CI: 40.4%-73.1%) vs 36.9% (95% CI: 27.5%-46.3%) , P=0.015]. Conclusion:Older donor age and the female donor-male recipient sex combination remain independent risk factors for aGVHD in patients with AML undergoing HID-HSCT.

Objective To establish a portable gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) method for determining carbon disulfide in workplace air. Methods Samples were collected using the built-in Tenax GR adsorption tube in the portable GC-MS, followed by thermal desorption. The analytes were separated on a DB-1 chromatographic column and detected by a 3D ion trap mass spectrometer, with 1,3,5-tris(trifluoromethyl)benzene used as the internal standard. Qualitative analysis was based on retention time and characteristic ions, and quantitative analysis was performed using the internal standard method. Results The method showed a linear range of 0.034-0.340 mg/m³ with a correlation coefficient of 0.999 4 using the adsorption tube enrichment mode. The detection limit was 0.007 mg/m³, and the lower limit of quantification was 0.022 mg/m³. The average recovery ranged from 97.5% to 104.0%. The within-run and between-run relative standard deviation was 2.7%-10.4% and 8.8%-14.8%, respectively. Conclusion A rapid, green, highly sensitive, and interference-resistant on-site detection method was established. As a supplement to existing national standard methods, this method is suitable for real-time monitoring of carbon disulfide in workplace air and for occupational exposure risk assessment.

Objectives:This study aimed to analyze the clinical and molecular characteristics of carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) bloodstream infection (BSI) in patients with hematological diseases and to explore prognostic risk factors.Methods:This retrospective study included patients with hematologic diseases with CRE BSI at the Institute of Hematology and Blood Diseases Hospital from January 2015 to December 2022. The clinical features, carbapenemase test results, antimicrobial treatments, and outcomes were analyzed.Results:A total of 120 patients developed CRE BSI. Escherichia coli (58/120, 48.3%) was the most prevalent Enterobacteriaceae, followed by Klebsiella pneumoniae (52/120, 43.3%). A total of 93 CRE strains were tested for carbapenemase, of which 75 strains produced carbapenemase (metalloenzyme: 51 strains; serine enzyme: 24 strains). The 30-day mortality rate after BSI was 24.2% (29/120). Univariate analysis revealed significantly lower mortality in patients treated with the ceftazidime-avibactam-containing regimen than in those treated with other antibiotics (7.8% vs 36.2%, P<0.001). Moreover, initiating active therapy within 24 h of BSI onset significantly reduced mortality (15.0% vs 33.3%, P=0.019). The proportion of patients with CRE colonization receiving active therapy within 12 and 24 h was significantly higher compared with patients without colonization (12 h: 14.5% vs 34.1%, P=0.012; 24 h: 40.8% vs 65.9%, P=0.008). Multivariate analysis revealed that septic shock ( HR=24.436, 95% CI 4.148 - 143.966, P<0.001) and pulmonary infection ( HR=9.346, 95% CI 2.718-32.140, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for death within 30 days. Appropriate therapy was initiated within 24 h ( HR=0.225, 95% CI 0.059 - 0.851, P=0.028), and treatment with the ceftazidime-avibactam-containing regimen ( HR=0.082, 95% CI 0.018-0.362, P=0.001) significantly reduced mortality. Conclusion:The prognosis of CRE BSI in patients with hematological diseases is poor. Timely, appropriate therapy and receipt of a ceftazidime-avibactam-containing regimen can improve survival and prognosis.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of single unicompartmental knee arthroplasty(UKA)and total knee arthroplasty(TKA)for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis.Methods A total of 21 patients who underwent TKA and 15 who underwent UKA were randomly recruited.Biomechanical tests were performed before surgery and at 6th and 12th month after surgery.A Vicon infrared motion capture system and Kistler three-dimensional force plate were used to simultaneously acquire the kinematic and kinetic data of the patients during stair walking.Results During stair ascent,the peak knee flexion moment in the TKA group was significantly lower than that in the UKA group;the time to peak knee flexion/adduction moment,knee flexion moment impulse,and load rate of the peak knee adduction moment in the UKA group were significantly lower than those in the UKA group.During stair descent,the peak knee extension power in the UKA group was significantly lower before surgery and at 6th month after surgery;the load rate of the peak vertical ground reaction force was significantly higher before surgery and the peak knee extension moment was significantly greater at 6th month after surgery;at 12th month after surgery,there was no significant difference in the biomechanical characteristics during stair ascent and descent.Conclusions The TKA and UKA groups showed similar knee joint function after surgery;however,compared with the UKA group,the TKA group may adopt a different lower extremity biomechanical pattern.The UKA group showed better quadriceps control after surgery and improved postural control during stair descent,whereas the TKA group adopted a conservative stair gait strategy to reduce the knee load.Compared with the peak moment,the time to peak moment and load rate of the peak moment were more sensitive indicators for determining the difference in the knee load.
