Intravascular large B-cell lymphoma(IVLBCL) is a rare and aggressive type of lymphoma with diverse and nonspecific clinical manifestations, often leading to misdiagnosis. This article reports a case of IVLBCL in a middle-aged male patient who initially presented with pulmonary arterial hypertension(PAH). The patient exhibited progressive hypoxemia and PAH, showing poor response to standard PAH therapy. Laboratory tests indicated a hyperinflammatory state and significantly elevated lactate dehydrogenase levels, while imaging revealed diffuse bilateral lung lesions. Random skin biopsy identified atypical B lymphocytes within subcutaneous capillaries, confirming the diagnosis of IVLBCL. Following treatment with the ZR-CHOP regimen, the patient's symptoms and laboratory parameters improved markedly. By reviewing relevant literature, this article systematically outlines the diagnostic and therapeutic process of this case, aiming to provide insights for the clinical recognition of such rare presentations.

Objective To compare and analyze the changes in the use of lung cancer therapeutic drugs before and after the national initiation of health insurance negotiations, and to study the impact of a series of policies on the use of lung cancer drugs. Methods Descriptive statistical methods were used analyze the basic situation of lung cancer patients and the changes of corresponding therapeutic drugs in Peking University People's Hospital from 2014 to 2020, as well as to the hospital procurement data of lung cancer therapeutic drugs in the database of the Chinese Medicine Economic Information. Results From 2014 to 2020, the total cost per capita of lung cancer patients showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing, increasing before the national drug negotiation and gradually decreasing after the negotiation. After 2017, the use of small ATC categories such as VEGF/VEGFR inhibitors and EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors increased significantly, along with a rise in the number of monoclonal antibody varieties. The DDDs of osimertinib, anlotinib, alectinib, crizotinib and other drugs in the medical insurance list increased significantly, and the average daily cost decreased significantly. Conclusion The number of hospitalization days for lung cancer patients had continued to shorten in recent years, and the structure of drug use had changed significantly. The adjustment of the medical insurance catalog had led to more innovative lung cancer drugs showing the trend of volume up and price down.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the effectiveness of clavicular hook plate fixation in the treatment of acromioclavicular joint dislocation and distal clavicle fractures. METHODS: A clinical data of 90 patients, who underwent clavicular hook plate fixation between January 2014 and June 2023, was retrospectively analyzed. There were 40 patients with distal clavicle fractures (fracture group) and 50 with acromioclavicular joint dislocations (dislocation group). There was no significant difference in the baseline data of gender, age, cause of injury, side of injury, time from injury to operation, and constituent ratio of osteoporosis patients between the two groups ( P>0.05). The time to remove the internal fixators and the occurrence of complications were recorded. Before removing the internal fixator and at 3 months after removing, the visual analogue scale (VAS) score was used to evaluate the degree of pain, and the mobility of the shoulder joint in forward flexion, elevation, and abduction was measured. Before removing the internal fixators, the Constant-Murley score and the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) score were used to evaluate the function of the shoulder joint. X-ray films of the shoulder joint were taken during follow-up to observe the occurrence of subacromial osteolysis, acromioclavicular joint osteoarthritis, and distal clavicle bone atrophy. Subgroup comparison was conducted between patients with and without subacromial osteolysis in the two groups. RESULTS: All incisions healed by first intention in both groups. All patients were followed up 1-9 years, with a median of 5 years; the difference in follow-up time between the two groups was not significant ( P>0.05). During follow-up, subacromial osteolysis occurred in 74 cases, including 41 cases of typeⅠand 33 cases of type Ⅱ, distal clavicle bone atrophy in 15 cases, and acromioclavicular joint osteoarthritis in 8 cases. There were significant differences in the removal time of internal fixators, the incidence of bone atrophy, and the incidence of osteoarthritis between the two groups ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of subacromial osteolysis ( P>0.05). Before removing the internal fixators, there was no significant difference in VAS score, UCLA score, and Constant-Murley score between the two groups ( P>0.05), while there were significant differences in shoulder joint range of motion in all directions ( P<0.05). After removing the internal fixators, only the difference in elevation was significant ( P<0.05). Within the group comparison, the VAS score and mobility of shoulder joint in abduction and elevation after removing the internal fixators were significantly superior to those before removing ( P<0.05). In the fracture and dislocation groups, there was only a significant difference in plate length between the subgroup with and without subacromial osteolysis ( P<0.05), while there was no significant difference in the above other indicators ( P>0.05). CONCLUSION Clavicular hook plate is a good choice for treating acromioclavicular dislocation or distal clavicle fractures, but the incidence of subacromial osteolysis is higher, and the degree of bone resorption is more severe in fracture patients. After removal of the internal fixator, the shoulder functions significantly improve. It is recommended to remove the internal fixator as soon as possible within the allowable range of the condition.

Objective To investigate the role of membrane-associated tyrosine/threonine-protein ki-nase 1(PKMYT1)in glucocorticoid(GC)-induced osteoblast(OB)apoptosis,providing a theoretical basis and potential therapeutic targets for early-stage steroid-induced avascular necrosis of the femoral head(SANFH).Methods(1)Mouse calvarial osteoblastic cells(MC3T3-E1)were selected for the study.The control group was cultured in standard medium,while the experimental group was subject-ed to osteogenic induction culture,with osteogenic capacity verified by alkaline phosphatase(ALP)and Alizarin Red S(ARS)staining.Then,mouse osteoblasts(mOB)were treated with different con-centrations of GC.After that,apoptosis was detected by using Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining as-say,while cell proliferation was assessed by using Cell Counting Kit-8(CCK8).Moreover,the expres-sions of anti-apoptotic protein B-cell lymphoma/leukemia-2(BCL-2),pro-apoptotic proteins cleaved caspase-3andcleavedcaspase-9(cleavedcaspase 3/9)weredetectedbyusing Westernblotting(WB).Meanwhile,proteomic analysis was employed to identify molecules potentially regulating GC-in-duced apoptosis in mOBs.What's more,quantitative real-time PCR(qPCR)and WB were used to further analyze PKMYT1 expression.(2)mOBs were treated with PKMYT1 inhibitor GSK-1520489A of different concentrations to screen the optimal one,and all subjects were then further divided into a control,a GC,a GSK-1520489A,and a GC+GSK-1520489A group.Later,the expression of PK-MYT1 and apoptosis-related proteins BCL-2 and cleaved caspase 3/9 of all groups were detected us-ing WB,and cell viability and cytotoxicity were evaluated by CCK8 assay,with cell proliferation by using 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine(EDU)assay and apoptosis by cell live/dead staining and Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining.(3)mOBs were infected with PKMYT1 overexpression lentiviral vectors,and its efficiency was verified by using immunofluorescence,qPCR,and WB.After successful overexpres-sion of PKMYT1,all cells were divided into the control,GC,PKMYT1 overexpression(OE),and OE+GC groups,whose cell proliferation was detected by EDU assay,and apoptosis was assessed by Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining and cell live/dead staining.(4)To verify the changes in PKMYT1 expression in human osteoblasts(hOB),hOBs extracted from human femoral heads of healthy individu-als were chosen into the control group,while those from patients with hormone-induced avascular ne-crosis of the femoral head(hSANFH)were selected into the hSANFH group.Then,PKMYT1 expres-sion in both groups was detected by using qPCR and WB.Results(1)After inducing the differentia-tion of mouse calvarial osteoblastic cells(MC3T3-E1)into mature osteoblasts,under the action of GC,compared with the control group,with the increase of GC concentration,the experimental group showed increased mOB apoptosis(P<0.01)and expression of cleaved caspase 3/9(P<0.01),but de-creased cell viability(P<0.01)and expressionof apoptosis-relatedprotein BCL-2(P<0.01).More-over,according to the proteomic sequencing,significant decrease was observed in the PKMYT1 expres-sion in mature mOBs treated with GC.(2)As to treatment of mOBs with different concentrations of PKMYT1 inhibitor GSK-1520489A,with the increase of concentration,cell viability decreased and cy-totoxicity increased(P<0.001).Moreover,compared with the control group,mOBs proliferation de-creased(P<0.001)and apoptosis increased(P<0.001)in the GSK-1520489A group.Meanwhile,com-pared with the GC group,mOB proliferation decreased(P<0.05)and apoptosis increased significantly(P<0.01)in the GC+GSK-1520489A group.(3)After overexpression of PKMYT1,in comparison with the control group,mOB proliferation increased(P<0.001)but apoptosis did not increase significantly(P>0.05)in the OE group.Moreover,compared with the GC group,mOB proliferation increased(P<0.001)but apoptosis decreased(P<0.001)significantly in the OE+GC group.(4)In hOBs extracted from human femoral head tissues,qPCR and WB results showed that PKMYT1 expression of the hSANFH group was significantly lower than the control group(P<0.001).Conclusion Down regulation of PKMYT1 expression promotes GC-induced apoptosis of mOBs.Conversely,over expression of PK-MYT1 inhibits GC-induced apoptosis of mOBs.Therefore,PKMYT1 may serve as a potential target for the early treatment of SANFH.

The control rates of blood lipid and blood glucose after intervention in patients with T2DM were significantly higher than those before intervention: 54.6% (436/798) vs. 37.3% (298/798) and 62.0% (495/798) vs. 26.1% (208/798), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01); there were no statistical differences in the control rates of BMI and blood pressure before intervention and after intervention ( P>0.05). In T2DM patients with age <50 years and from 50 to 59 years, the triacylglycerol, total cholesterol, LDL-C, fasting blood glucose, 2 h postprandial blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin after intervention were significantly lower than those before intervention, the HDL-C after intervention was significantly higher than that before intervention, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05 or <0.01); the control rates of blood lipid and blood glucose after intervention were significantly higher than those before intervention, the patients with <50 years: 44.5% (114/256) vs. 27.7% (71/256) and 76.6% (196/256) vs. 28.9% (74/256), the patients with 50 to 59 years: 54.8% (86/157) vs. 28.0% (44/157) and 66.9% (105/157) vs. 24.8% (39/157), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01); there were no statistical differences in the control rates of BMI and blood pressure between before intervention and after intervention ( P>0.05). In T2DM patients with age from 60 to 69 years, the triacylglycerol, total cholesterol, LDL-C, fasting blood glucose, 2 h postprandial blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin after intervention were significantly lower than those before intervention, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05 or <0.01); there was no statistical differences in HDL-C before intervention and after intervention ( P>0.05); the control rates of blood lipid and blood glucose after intervention were significantly higher than those before intervention: 59.0% (177/300) vs. 47.3% (142/300) and 53.3% (160/300) vs. 25.7% (77/300), and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01); there were no statistical differences in the control rates of BMI and blood pressure before intervention and after intervention ( P>0.05). In T2DM patients with aged ≥70 years, the total cholesterol, LDL-C, 2 h postprandial blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin after intervention were significantly lower than those before intervention, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05 or <0.01); there were no statistical difference in triacylglycerol, HDL-C and fasting blood glucose between before intervention and after intervention ( P>0.05); the control rate of blood glucose after intervention was significantly higher than that before intervention: 48.2% (41/85) vs. 22.4% (19/85), and there was statistical difference ( P<0.01); there were no statistical differences in the control rates of BMI, blood pressure and blood lipid between before intervention and after intervention ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The intervention based on MMC mode management could effectively improve the glucose and lipid metabolism in patients with T2DM, especially for patients with aged <70 years. However, additional health guidance is needed for patients with aged ≥ 70 years to further enhance their health benefits.

Objective To investigate the status quo of self-management behaviour in cancer patients with port-A catheter and its influencing factors so as to provide references for scientific formulation of measures to promote the self-management behaviour in cancer patients with port-A catheter.Methods With a convenient sampling method,cancer patients with port-A catheter who were hospitalised in our hospital between January and August 2024 were selected as the research objects.A general data questionnaire,the self-management behaviour assessment scale for cancer patients with port-a catheter,the electronic health literacy scale,the perceived social support scale and the decision-making self-efficacy scale were employed in the survey.Pearson correlation analysis was used for analyzing the correlation of electronic health literacy,perceived social support,decision-making self-efficacy and self-management behavior,and multiple linear regression analysis was used for analyzing the influencing factors of self-management behavior.Results The total score of port-A catheter self-management behaviour of the cancer patients was 121.50±25.81.The self-management behaviours were positively correlated with e-health literacy,perceived social support and decision-making self-efficacy(r1=0.421,r2=0.629,r3=0.445,all P<0.05).E-health literacy,perceived social support,decision-making self-efficacy,education and time of hospital stay were the main influencing factors(all P<0.05).The factors explained 82.90%of the total variation in scores.Conclusion There is a good self-management behaviour in cancer patients with port-A catheter.Nursing staff should attach importance to e-health literacy,perceived social support and decision-making self-efficacy of the patients,encourage the patients to make full use of internet and information technologies and improve the supports for cancer patients from family members,friends and others.Meanwhile,nursing staff should encourage the patients to improve their confidence in decision-making.Moreover,special attentions should be paid to the patients with poorer education and shorter catheter-carrying time in order to further promote the implementation of self-management behaviour of cancer patients with port-A catheter.

Objective:To investigate the incidence of mild cognitive impairment(MCI)and malnutrition among centenarians, as well as to explore the relationship between cognitive impairment and nutritional status.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted between November and December 2023, involving 121 elderly individuals aged ≥ 100 years in the Baoshan District of Shanghai.The survey collected general information and included the Ascertain Dementia 8-item Questionnaire(AD8), the Mini Nutritional Assessment Short-Form(MNA-SF), and anthropometric nutritional measurements such as waist circumference(WC), hip circumference(HC), arm circumference(AC), calf circumference(CC), and grip strength.The prevalence of MCI and malnutrition among centenarians was calculated, and the correlation between MCI and MNA-SF scores, along with anthropometric nutritional measurement indicators, was analyzed.Results:The age range of centenarians was between 100 and 105 years, with an average age of 101.0±3.5 years.The majority of centenarians were female(76.9%), illiterate(58.7%), and lived with family members(73.6%).All participants had medical insurance(100%).Most had no history of long-term smoking 118(97.5%), long-term alcohol consumption 108(89.3%), long-term use of health supplements 109(90.1%), long-term tea or coffee habits 114(94.2%), chronic medical conditions 84(69.4%), or family history of dementia 102(84.3%).Additionally, 62(51.2%)reported their health status over the past year as general.According to the AD8 screening results, the negative and positive detection rates of MCI in centenarians were 79(65.3%)and 47(34.7%), respectively.Based on the MNA-SF scoring results, the detection rates of normal nutrition, malnutrition risk, and malnutrition among centenarians were 36(29.8%), 61(50.4%), and 24(19.8%), respectively.There was a statistically significant difference in AC between the non-MCI group and the MCI group among centenarians( t=0.01, P=0.03).The AD8 scores of centenarians were significantly negatively correlated with AC, CC, and MNA-SF scores( r=-0.20, r=-0.26, r=-0.29; all P<0.05). Conclusions:The cognitive function of centenarians is associated with their nutritional status, indicating that higher cognitive abilities correlate with better nutritional status.

Objective:To explore the effectiveness of immersive virtual reality (VR)-guided core stability-assisted training in improving the balance of ischemic stroke survivors.Methods:Sixty-six hemiplegic ischemic stroke survivors were randomly divided into a conventional rehabilitation training group (CON) of 32 and an immersive VR-guided core stability-assisted training group (VR-TOT) of 34. In addition to basic internal medical treatment, the CON group underwent conventional rehabilitation therapy, while the VR-TOT group received VR-guided core stability-assisted training. Before and after 4 weeks of the treatments, the subjects′ balance was evaluated using the Fugl-Meyer balance scale. A three-dimensional force platform was used to collect the sway amplitude, sway speed, peripheral area and total trajectory length of the center of pressure COP of the bilateral plantar in the left-right and anterior-posterior directions while the subjects stood with the eyes open and closed.Results:After the treatments, the average Fugl-Meyer balance scores of both groups had improved significantly. In the eyes-open condition, after the treatment, there was a significant decrease in the average COP sway amplitude in the anteroposterior direction on the hemiplegic side among the CON group, as well as in both the mediolateral and anteroposterior directions on both sides in the VR-TOT group. The sway velocity in the anteroposterior direction on the hemiplegic side had decreased significantly in both groups, and the sway velocity in both the mediolateral and anteroposterior directions on the non-hemiplegic side had also decreased significantly. In the CON group the peripheral area on the non-hemiplegic side had decreased and the total trajectory length had shortened significantly. In the VR-TOT group there were significant decreases in the peripheral area on both sides and in the total trajectory length on both sides. Comparing the two groups after treatment, the peripheral area on the hemiplegic side in the VR-TOT group was significantly smaller. In the eyes-closed condition, the sway amplitude of the COP on the hemiplegic side in the anteroposterior direction and on the non-hemiplegic side in both the mediolateral and anteroposterior directions had decreased significantly in the VR-TOT group after the treatment. The average sway velocity had decreased significantly in the anteroposterior direction on the non-hemiplegic side in the CON group. In the VR-TOT group this was observed in the anteroposterior direction on the hemiplegic side and in both the mediolateral and anteroposterior directions on the healthy side. In the CON group the average peripheral area of the COP on the hemiplegic side had decreased, and the total trajectory length had shortened, both significantly. In the VR-TOT group, the peripheral area on the non-hemiplegic side had decreased significantly as well.Conclusions:Core stability-assisted training based on immersive virtual reality can effectively improve the balance of ischemic stroke survivors. It shows promise for clinical application.

Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of the combination therapy of lenalidomide and rituximab (R2) for short-cycle maintenance therapy in patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL).Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted. The clinical data of 19 B-NHL patients who received R2 regimen maintenance therapy after achieving complete remission through chemotherapy or autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation at Dongguan Kanghua Hospital from February 2018 to January 2024 were collected, and the overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS), adverse reactions, changes in lymphocyte subsets and cytokine levels before and after treatment were analyzed.Results:Among the 19 patients, there were 7 males and 12 females, with a median age [ M ( Q1, Q3)] of 49 (45, 65) years. The median follow-up time was 56 months, ranging from 5 to 77 months. The 1-year OS and PFS rates were 89.2% and 88.9%, respectively. The 2-year and 5-year PFS rates were both 83.2%, and the 2-year and 5-year OS rates were both 88.9%. Common adverse reactions included hematological adverse reactions and infections, with 4 cases (21.1%) experiencing grade 3-4 hematological adverse reactions and 4 cases (21.1%) experiencing infections. There was no statistically significant difference in the levels of lymphocyte subsets (total T cells, helper T cells, regulatory T cells, NK cells, B cells, and CD4/CD8) and cytokines [interleukin (IL)-2, IL-4, IL-6, IL-10, tumor necrosis factor-α, and interferon-γ] before and after treatment (all P > 0.05). Conclusions:The R2 regimen for short-cycle maintenance therapy of B-NHL is effective and well tolerated by patients.
