  Objective  To investigate the incidence and adverse effects of abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) during oral anticoagulation therapy in women with thrombophilia.  Methods  The female patients with thrombophilia who received oral anticoagulation therapy with rivaroxaban or warfarin in the Department of Hematology of Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2013 to May 2023 were selected as the study subjects. Their demographic characteristics, disease related data and AUB before and after anticoagulant therapy were retrospectively collected. The patients were divided into rivaroxaban treatment group and warfarin treatment group according to anticoagulant drugs. The generalized estimating equation was used to analyze the difference in the incidence of AUB before and after anticoagulant therapy, and explore the effect of different anticoagulant therapy on AUB.  Results  A total of 106 female patients with thrombophilia were included, and we found that oral anticoagulation significantly increased the incidence of AUB (56.6% vs. 26.4%, P < 0.001), predominantly characterized by excessive menstruation (48.1%) and prolonged periods (21.7%). Rivaroxaban was more likely to cause AUB than warfarin (OR=3.3, 95% CI: 1.5-7.4, P=0.003). Of the patients who experienced excessive menstruation and prolonged periods, 72.2%(39/54) required intervention, with suspension of anticoagulants during menstruation as the main intervention (37.0%). The patients taking rivaroxaban were more likely to stop taking them during menstruation compared to those taking warfarin (OR=10.4, 95% CI: 1.2-87.2, P=0.019).  Conclusions  Oral anticoagulation therapy significantly increased the incidence of AUB in women with thrombophilia and the risk of AUB associated with rivaroxaban was significantly higher than that with warfarin.

Objective:To investigate the different types of renal artery involvement in Stanford type B aortic dissection (TBAD) and the comparison of clinical effecacy after thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR).Methods:This is a retrospective cohort study included 330 patients with TBAD and renal artery involvement treated with TEVAR from June 2002 to September 2021 in General Hospital of Northern Theater Command of the PLA. According to aortic CTA image, unilateral renal artery involvement conditions were divided into 5 types: the true lumen type (renal artery opening completely from the true lumen), false lumen type (renal artery opening completely from the false lumen), double lumen type (renal artery opening from the true and false double lumen), compression type (renal artery opening connected with the true lumen, but the renal artery opening was extremely squeezed by the inner membrane), open type (renal artery opening with intimal tear). There were seven types of bilateral renal artery involvement: true-true type (true lumen-true lumen type), true and false type (true lumen-false lumen type), true-double type (true lumen-double lumen type), true-opening type (true lumen-opening type), false-false type (false lumen-false lumen type), false-compression type (false lumen-compression type), double-double type (double lumen-double lumen type). The primary observation index of this study was the comparison of postoperative renal function and the incidence of clinical adverse events of different types of renal artery involvement. One-way ANOVA test, Kruskal-Wallis H test and paired sample rank sum test were used to compare postoperative renal function between different types of bilateral renal artery involvement. The Chi-square test or Fisher′s exact probability test were used to compare the near and long term adverse events between different types of bilateral renal artery involvement. Kaplan-Meier method was used to compare the all-cause mortality of patients with severe renal functional injury and non-severe renal functional injury before surgery. Results:The average age of the patients included in this study was (53±11) years, including 276 males (83.6%) and 54 females (16.4%). There were statistical difference in the level of serum creatinine (preoperative: H=18.686, P=0.005, postoperative: H=18.101, P=0.006) and cystatin C (preoperative: H=17.566, P=0.007, postoperative: H=10.433, P=0.016), pre-and post-operative, between the seven groups of TBAD patients with different renal artery involvement types ( P<0.05), and the false-false type group shown the worst kidney function. However, no statistically significant differences were shown when comparing their pre- and post-operative change values ( P>0.05). The 30-day follow-up result showed that there were statistically significant differences in the incidence of postoperative acute kidney injury ( χ2=15.623, P=0.007), aorta-related adverse events ( χ2=15.523, P=0.010), and intraoperative endoleak ( χ2=17.935, P=0.004) among the seven groups, and the false-false group was the highest (2/9, 5/9 and 5/9, respectively). In terms of long-term follow-up results, there were statistically significant differences in all-cause death ( χ2=14.772, P=0.011) and non-aortic death ( χ2=15.589, P=0.008) among the seven groups. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that patients with worse pre-operative renal function showed higher long-term all cause death (17.7% vs. 4.8%, P=0.009). Conclusions:For TBAD patients with renal artery involvement, there were differences in renal function among different types, and TEVAR showed no significant effect on renal function in TBAD patients. The long-term all cause death was higher in patients with worse renal function pre-operative.

Objective:To analyze the efficacy of second-line regimens and prognostic factors in patients with first-relapsed multiple myeloma (MM) treated with bortezomib, cyclophosphamide, and dexamethasone (BCD).Methods:A retrospective cohort study. Clinical data were collected in first-relapsed MM patients after BCD treatment from three tertiary hospitals in north China from July 2009 to October 2022. Patients were classified according to the second-line regimen into the immunotherapy group, single novel agent group [either proteasome inhibitor (PI) or immunomodulatory drug (IMiD)], combination treatment group (both PI+IMiD), and traditional treatment group. Responses to second-line regimens and survival data were analyzed. The Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis and the Cox proportional risk model was used for univariate and multivariate analyses.Results:A total of 217 patients were enrolled including 8.8% (19/217) in the immunotherapy group, 48.4% (105/217) in the PI/IMiD group, 29.9% (65/217) in the PI+IMiD group, and 12.9% (28/217) in the traditional treatment group. The median age was 62 years (range 31-83 years) and 56.2% (122/217) were males. The overall response rates (ORRs) in the four groups were 94.7% (18/19) vs. 56.2% (59/105) vs. 73.8% (48/65) vs. 32.1% (9/28) ( χ2=24.55; P<0.001), respectively. The progression-free survival (PFS) of the second-line regimens (2ndPFS) was 17.7 vs. 9.0 vs. 9.2 vs. 4.6 months ( χ2=22.74; P<0.001), respectively, among which patients in the PI/IMiD and PI+IMiD groups had comparable 2ndPFS ( χ2=1.76; P=0.923). Patients with high-risk cytogenetic abnormalities (HRCAs) achieved the longest 2ndPFS of 22.0 months in the immunotherapy group ( χ2=15.03; P=0.002). Multivariate analysis suggested that immunotherapy ( HR=0.11, 95% CI 0.05-0.27), achievement of efficacy of partial response or better ( HR=0.47, 95% CI 0.34-0.66), and non-aggressive relapse ( HR=0.25, 95% CI 0.17-0.37) were independent prognostic factors of 2ndPFS. Conclusion:In this real-world study, immunotherapy was associated with a more favorable efficacy and PFS for first-relapsed MM patients after BCD treatment, with similar outcomes in patients with HRCAs.

Objective:To survey the status quo of awareness, demands and satisfaction of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) service among the elderly residents in nursing home.Methods:A randomized survey on the status quo of TCM service was conducted from May to July 2019 among 237 elderly in 9 long-term care facilities close to a TCM hospital in Pudong New Area. The awareness, demands, satisfaction and influencing factors were analyzed.Results:Among 237 participants, only 1(0.4%)knew the TCM and its care well, however, 195 (82.3%) showed demands of TCM service. There were significant differences in the scores of demands and satisfaction of TCM among participants with different age, education level, marital status, medical insurance and health level ( P<0.05). Among the 16 TCM services, the three with top demand scores were acupoint massage (3.54±1.21), TCM health education (3.29±1.08), TCM drug iontophoresis (3.23±1.26); the three with top satisfaction scores were TCM health education (3.38±0.94), traditional health exercise (3.33±0.95), moxibustion (3.32±1.15). The demands and satisfactory were most correlated with each other in the guidance TCM medication ( r=0.996) and TCM herb tea ( r=0.988); and least correlated in the identification of TCM constitution ( r=0.305) and acupoint massage ( r=0.484). Conclusions:Among the elderly in long-term care facilities the awareness of TCM is at a low level, while the demands of TCM service are high. It is necessary to promote TCM service for elderly in long-term care facilities through TCM health education and developing the TCM products and appropriate techniques.
