Objective:
To analyze the trend and characteristics of school tuberculosis epidemic in Shijiazhuang from 2011 to 2020, and to provide reference for school tuberculosis prevention and control.
Methods:
Descriptive methods were used to analyze the epidemiological characteristics of tuberculosis among students and the epidemic situation of tuberculosis in schools in Shijiazhuang from 2011 to 2020. The χ 2 test and χ 2 trend test were used to analyze the characteristics and trend of school tuberculosis.
Results:
A total of 4 896 cases of tuberculosis were registered among students in Shijiazhuang from 2011 to 2020. The average annual registered incidence rate of students was 24.69/100 000, and the difference in incidence rate was statistically significant ( χ 2=318.50, P <0.01) the overall registered incidence rate of tuberculosis among students in the past 10 years was on the rise ( χ 2 trend =87.79, P <0.01). Among the student cases, male accounted for 53.89%, female accounted for 46.11%. The age group of students aged >18 and above accounted for the largest proportion(50.35%), followed by the age group aged 16-18( 35.80 %). Most students cases occurred in April and September-November, with September the highest(12.03%). A total of 22 clustered outbreaks (174 cases) and the aggregate epidemic accounted for 3.55% of the total number of students with tuberculosis.
Conclusion
The prevention and control of tuberculosis epidemic in schools in Shijiazhuang should not be underestimated, and strengthen the supervision, management, publicity and education of students in key age groups to avoid clusters of outbreaks.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of geritinib in the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with FLT3 mutation.Methods:The clinical data of 5 AML patients with FLT3 mutation who were diagnosed in the University of Hong Kong-Shenzhen Hospital, Shenzhen People's Hospital, Shenzhen Second People's Hospital, Shenzhen University General Hospital from March 2020 to April 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. Relapsed patients concurrently received two- or three-drug chemotherapy combined with geritinib. Blood routine was checked once a week; liver function and renal function were checked once every 2 weeks during treatment. Bone marrow puncture was performed once every 1 to 3 months to monitor the bone marrow morphology, minimal residual disease (MRD) and FLT3 mutation expression levels. The efficacy, side effects, overall survival of these patients were analyzed after treatment with geritinib.Results:The white blood cell was increased in all the 5 patients at the initial diagnosis. FLT3 mutations analysis showed FLT3-internal tandem duplication (ITD) (3 cases) and FLT-3 tyrosine-kinase domain (TKD) (2 cases). Among 5 patients, 1 patient was relapse-free with maintenance therapy of oral geritinib after hematological stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for 60 days; among other 4 relapsed and refractory patients, 1 female patient after pregnancy relapsed after transplantation and then achieved complete remission followed by the maintenance therapy with geritinib after oral geritinib, 1 16-year-old patient achieved treatment outcome close to the complete remission after treatment with geritinib, 1 patient achieved complete remission after treatment with geritinib, and then underwent haplo-HSCT followed by the maintenance therapy with geritinib and the other 1 relapsed patient achieved complete remission after treatment with geritinib. After transplantation, 3 patients receiving maintenance treatment of geritinib did not relapse. The main side effects included anemia, decreased neutrophil count, rash, and increased aminotransferase. The median follow-up time of 5 patients was 15 months (6-20 months). All 5 cases survived until the last follow-up in November 2021 and 4 patients were disease-free.Conclusions:Relapsed and refractory AML patients with FLT3 mutation can achieve complete remission after treatment with geritinib and get a chance for transplantation. Geritinib may reduce the risk of recurrence after transplantation and improve survival rate. No serious side effects occur in geritinib treatment.

Objective:To construct a three-dimensional imaging model of the pancreatic head based on the embryological fusion plane, and to provide morphological parameters of the pancreatic head for future developments of basic and clinical researches on the pancreas.Methods:Histologic cross-sections of the pancreatic head with its adjacent structures were made from healthy cadavers. Immunohistochemical analysis of pancreatic polypeptide antibody was then performed to verify the existence and location of the embryological fusion plane reported previously. The histologically positioning method of the embryological fusion plane was then applied to the corresponding sections on computed tomography (CT). Based on the results of the above work, volunteers from the Affiliated Changzhou No. 2 People's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University were then used as research objects. A three-dimensional visualization reconstruction software was used to perform CT image-based structures to include the abdominal pancreas, dorsal pancreas head, and embryo fusion surface. Three-dimensional reconstruction of the pancreatic head, and morphological measurements of the relevant structures of the pancreatic head were then made.Results:Immunohistochemical analysis verified the existence and the position of the embryological fusion plane. The histologically positioning method was then successfully applied to the CT sections. The three-dimensional imaging model of the pancreatic head containing the embryological fusion plane, dorsal segment and ventral segment of head were built based on CT images. A total of 35 volunteers were included, including 19 males and 16 females, aged (48.26±8.26) years, and with a BMI of (22.29±1.78) kg/m 2. The morphological results showed that the volume of the pancreatic head, dorsal pancreas and abdominal pancreas were (32.80±8.15) cm 3, (22.21±6.94) cm 3, (10.59±3.87) cm 3, and the area of the embryo fusion surface was (12.46±3.20) cm 2. All volunteers were then grouped according to gender. Statistical analysis showed that there were no significant differences in the total pancreatic head volume, dorsal pancreatic head volume, abdominal pancreatic volume, and embryo fusion area among the groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:It was feasible and practical to build a three-dimensional imaging model of the pancreatic head based on the embryological fusion plane by using a 3D computer system. This model and its morphological parameters could provide a new tool for research on pancreas.

Objective To analyze the clinical features of patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Shanghai and to investigate the risk factors for disease progression to severe cases. Methods The clinical data of 292 adult patients with COVID-19 hospitalized in Shanghai Public Health Clinical Center from January 20, 2020 to February 10, 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, including 21 severe patients and 271 mild patients. The demographic characteristics, epidemiological history, history of underlying diseases and laboratory examinations were compared between the two groups. Measurement data were compared using t test or Mann-Whitney U test. The count data were compared using hi-square test. The binary logistic regression equation was used to analyze the risk factors for the progression of patients to severe cases. Results Among the 292 patients, 21 were severe cases with the rate of 7.2% (21/292). One patient died, and the mortality rate was 4.8% in severe patients. The severe patients aged (65.0±15.7) years old, 19 (90.5%) were male, 11 (52.4%) had underlying diseases, 7 (33.3%) had close relatives diagnosed with COVID-19. The mild patients aged (48.7±15.7) years old, 135 (49.8%) were male, 74 (27.3%) had underlying diseases, 36 (13.3%) had close relatives diagnosed with COVID-19. The differences between two groups were all significant statistically ( t =-4.730, χ 2 =12.930, 5.938 and 4.744, respectively, all P <0.05). Compared with the mild patients, the levels of absolute numbers of neutrophils, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, lactate dehydrogenase, creatinine, serum cystatin C, C reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin , D -dimer, pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (proBNP), serum myoglobin, creatine kinase (CK), creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB), serum troponin I (cTnI) in severe patients were all significantly higher ( U =2 091.5, 1 928.0, 1 215.5, 729.0, 1 580.5, 1 375.5, 917.5, 789.5, 1 209.0, 1 434.0, 638.0, 964.5, 1 258.0 and 1 747.5, respectively, all P <0.05), while the levels of lymphocyte count, albumin, transferrin, CD3 + T lymphocyte count, CD8 + T lymphocyte count and CD4 + T lymphocyte count in severe patients were all significantly lower ( U =1 263.5, t =4.716, U =1 214.0, 962.0, 1 167.5 and 988.0, respectively, all P <0.05). Further logistic regression analysis showed that the albumin (odds ratio ( OR )=0.806, 95% CI 0.675-0.961), CRP ( OR =1.016, 95% CI 1.000-1.032), serum myoglobin ( OR =1.010, 95% CI 1.004-1.016), CD3 + T lymphocyte count ( OR =0.996, 95% CI 0.991-1.000) and CD8 + T lymphocyte count ( OR =1.006, 95% CI 1.001-1.010) at admission were independent risk factors for the progression of COVID-19 patients to severe illness (all P <0.05). Conclusions Severe cases of patients with COVID-19 in Shanghai are predominantly elderly men with underlying diseases. Albumin, CRP, serum myoglobin, CD3 + T lymphocyte count and CD8 + T lymphocyte count could be used as early warning indicators for severe cases, which deserve more clinical attention.
