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.

Objective To analyze the therapeutic effects of chemotherapy after chidamide pretreatment in 16 cases of high-risk and refractory lymphoid malignancy. Methods The efficacy and adverse reactions of 16 patients with high-risk and refractory lymphoid malignancy who received chidamide combined with chemotherapy after 3 days pretreatment of chidamide were analyzed. Results Sixteen patients included 6 males and 10 females, and the median age was 49.5 years old (23-88 years old). The median course of previous systemic chemotherapy was 4 (range 0-22). Among 14 patients who received induction chemotherapy, 7 patients achieved complete remission (CR), 7 patients achieved partial remission (PR). Fourteen patients had achieved clinical efficacy, and the overall response rate (ORR) was 100 %. After 2 cases had remission , the patients who entered this regimen for consolidation chemotherapy also had durable CR. The median follow-up time was 13 months (range 2-24 months) until December 2017. Nine cases had overall survival (OS), 7 cases died and 9 cases had progression-free survival. Common adverse effects of the chemotherapy included mild and controllable gastrointestinal reactions after chidamide. Conclusion Chemotherapy after chidamide pretreatment may improve the effect and prognosis of high-risk or refractory lymphoid malignancy.

Objectivde To explore the efficacy of i-GMS applied to the diabetes patient outside the hospital.Methods Totally 80 type 2 diabetes mellitus patients were divided into an experiment group (Group A) and a control group (Group B).Group A executed blood glucose monitoring by Glucose Management App and intelligent blood glucose meter (personal version),and Group B completed monitoring by some portable blood glucose meter.Telephone follow-up was performed once a week,and the two groups were compared on glycated albumin (GA) value 3 weeks after discharging,values of HbA1c,FPG and PG2h 3 months after,the times of blood glucose monitoring and hypoglycaemia as well as the patient satisfaction over the glucose management.Results Group A had the values of GA,HbA1c,FPG and PG2h significantly lower than those of Group B (P< 0.05).The times of glucose monitoring and patient satisfaction in Group A were statistically higher than those of Group B,while the incidence rate of hypoglycaemia of the former was lower than that of the latter (P<0.05).Conclusion I-GMS proves efficient when used for glucose self monitoring and management of the type 2 diabetes mellitus patient.
