Objective:To investigate the genetic causes in a phenotypically normal couple with three pregnancies of trisomy 21 offspring.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on a phenotypically normal couple who had three pregnancies with trisomy 21 syndrome offspring and were transferred to Shandong Provincial Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital in December 2023. Genetic analysis was performed using quantitative fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (QF-PCR), karyotype analysis, chromosome microarray analysis (CMA), and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Relevant articles up to December 31, 2023, were retrieved from CNKI, Wanfang Database, Yiigle, and VIP using the terms "recurrent pregnancy", "consecutive pregnancy", "two pregnancies", and "trisomy 21 syndrome (Down syndrome)" in Chinese. Additionally, the English terms "recurrence or recurrent" "trisomy 21 syndrome" and "Down syndrome" were used to retrieve articles from PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science. The genetic causes of recurrent pregnancies with trisomy 21 syndrome fetuses were analyzed and summarized. Results:(1) Case from this hospital: Results of QF-PCR, karyotype analysis, and CMA of amniotic fluid cells in this pregnancy all indicated that the fetus had trisomy 21 syndrome. FISH tests on oral mucosal cells, decidual tissue, and urine sediment cells of the pregnant woman all indicated that she was a mosaic for trisomy 21. Additionally, QF-PCR detection of short tandem repeat (STR) loci on chromosome 21 suggested that there might be gonad mosaicism in the pregnant women, and an extra chromosome 21 in the fetus was derived from gonad mosaicism 21 trisomic cells. (2) Literature review: A total of 13 case reports with detailed records of recurrent pregnancy trisomy 21 syndrome history and related test results of both partners were retrieved, making a total of 14 cases, including seven cases each with a history of 2 and 3 trisomy 21 pregnancies. Translocation trisomy 21 was detected in each pregnancy of two cases. Of the 14 cases, five cases were only detected by peripheral blood samples of the couple, and the results were normal. The other nine cases were also detected by skin fibroblasts (six cases), ovarian tissue cells (two cases), oral mucosa cells (two cases), semen (two cases), and urinary sediment cells (one case), among which six cases indicated that one of the parents was chimeric trisomy 21, and five cases were female chimerism, one case was male chimerism. Only two cases were found to have mosaic trisomy 21 in peripheral blood sample, and the chimerism ratio was lower than that of other samples detected at the same time. In five cases, the extra chromosome 21 was found to be of maternal origin through testing of STR loci on chromosome 21.Conclusions:Parental mosaicism is an important cause of recurrent pregnancies with trisomy 21 syndrome. Testing samples from skin, oral mucosa, blood, semen, and ovaries can help detect low-level mosaicism.

Objective:To analyze the factors affecting delayed chemotherapy in children with Burkitt lymphoma (BL) and their influence on prognosis.Methods:Retrospective cohort study. Clinical data of 591 children aged ≤18 years with BL from May 2017 to December 2022 in China Net Childhood Lymphoma (CNCL) was collected. The patients were treated according to the protocol CNCL-BL-2017. According to the clinical characteristics, therapeutic regimen was divided into group A, group B and group C .Based on whether the total chemotherapy time was delayed, patients were divided into two groups: the delayed chemotherapy group and the non-delayed chemotherapy group. Based on the total delayed time of chemotherapy, patients in group C were divided into non-delayed chemotherapy group, 1-7 days delayed group and more than 7 days delayed group. Relationships between delayed chemotherapy and gender, age, tumor lysis syndrome before chemotherapy, bone marrow involvement, disease group (B/C group), serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) > 4 times than normal, grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ myelosuppression after chemotherapy, minimal residual disease in the interim assessment, and severe infection (including severe pneumonia, sepsis, meningitis, chickenpox, etc.) were analyzed. Logistic analysis was used to identify the relevant factors. Kaplan-Meier method was used to analyze the patients' survival information. Log-Rank was used for comparison between groups.Results:Among 591 patients, 504 were males and 87 were females, the follow-up time was 34.8 (18.6,50.1) months. The 3-year overall survival (OS) rate was (92.5±1.1)%,and the 3-year event-free survival (EFS) rate was (90.5±1.2)%. Seventy-three (12.4%) patients were in delayed chemotherapy group and 518 (87.6%) patients were in non-delayed chemotherapy group. The reasons for chemotherapy delay included 72 cases (98.6%) of severe infection, 65 cases (89.0%) of bone marrow suppression, 35 cases (47.9%) of organ dysfunction, 22 cases (30.1%) of tumor lysis syndrome,etc. There were 7 cases of chemotherapy delay in group B, which were seen in COPADM (vincristine+cyclophosphamide+prednisone+daunorubicin+methotrexate+intrathecal injection,4 cases) and CYM (methotrexate+cytarabine+intrathecal injection,3 cases) stages. There were 66 cases of chemotherapy delay in group C, which were common in COPADM (28 cases) and CYVE 1 (low dose cytarabine+high dose cytarabine+etoposide+methotrexate, 12 cases) stages. Multinomial Logistic regression analysis showed that the age over 10 years old ( OR=0.54,95% CI 0.30-0.93), tumor lysis syndrome before chemotherapy ( OR=0.48,95% CI 0.27-0.84) and grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ myelosuppression after chemotherapy ( OR=0.55,95% CI 0.33-0.91)were independent risk factors for chemotherapy delay.The 3-year OS rate and the 3-year EFS rate of children with Burkitt lymphoma in the delayed chemotherapy group were lower than those in the non-delayed chemotherapy group ((79.4±4.9)% vs. (94.2±1.1)%, (80.2±4.8)% vs. (92.0±1.2)%,both P<0.05). The 3-year OS rate of the group C with chemotherapy delay >7 days (42 cases) was lower than that of the group with chemotherapy delay of 1-7 days (22 cases) and the non-delay group (399 cases) ((76.7±6.9)% vs. (81.8±8.2)% vs. (92.7±1.3)%, P=0.002).The 3-year OS rate of the chemotherapy delay group (9 cases) in the COP (vincristine+cyclophosphamide+prednisone) phase was lower than that of the non-chemotherapy delay group (454 cases) ((66.7±15.7)% vs. (91.3±1.4)%, P=0.005). Similarly, the 3-year OS rate of the chemotherapy delay group (11 cases) in the COPADM1 phase was lower than that of the non-chemotherapy delay group (452 cases) ((63.6±14.5)% vs. (91.5±1.3)%, P=0.001). Conclusions:The delayed chemotherapy was related to the age over 10 years old, tumor lysis syndrome before chemotherapy and grade Ⅲ-Ⅳ myelosuppression after chemotherapy in pediatric BL. There is a significant relationship between delayed chemotherapy and prognosis of BL in children.

Objective:To explore the efficacy and safety of recombinant human granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) for the prevention of post-chemotherapy infections in pediatric hematologic neoplasms.Methods:A total of 134 children hospitalized for chemotherapy in 6 tertiary hospitals from July 2016 to June 2018 were collected, including 60 cases in Children's Hospital of Fudan University, 38 cases in Xinhua Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, 29 cases in Children's Hospital Affiliated to Soochow University, 4 cases in the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University, 2 cases in Northwestern Women and Children's Hospital, and 1 case in Shandong Provincial Qianfoshan Hospital. The children were divided into GM-CSF group (38 cases), G-CSF group (45 cases) and GM-CSF+G-CSF group (51 cases) by using random number table method. The incidence of infections, the recovery time of absolute neutrophil counting (ANC), the decrease of blood platelet count (Plt) and the incidence of adverse reactions were compared among the three groups.Results:In all children, a total of 64 cases (47.8%) had infections during the myelosuppression phase after chemotherapy, of which 18 cases (47.4%) in GM-CSF group, 20 cases (44.4%) in G-CSF group, and 26 cases (51.0%) in GM-CSF+G-CSF group. The incidence of respiratory infection in G-CSF group was higher than that in GM-CSF group and GM-CSF+ G-CSF group [22.2% (10/45) vs. 2.6% (1/38), 4.0% (2/51), χ2 = 12.00, P = 0.002]. The median time to recovery of ANC > 1.5×10 9/L was 10.5 d (8 d, 15 d) in all children, 12 d (10 d, 16 d) in GM-CSF group, 9 d (8 d, 12 d) in G-CSF group, and 10 d (8 d, 16 d) in GM-CSF+G-CSF group. In all children, a total of 101 cases (75.4%) had Plt<50×10 9/L during the myelosuppression phase, and 79 cases (59.0%) had Plt <20×10 9/L. The differences in the incidence of Plt <50×10 9/L and <20×10 9/L among the three groups were not statistically significant (both P > 0.05). In all children, the adverse reactions occurred in 24 cases (17.9%), including 20 cases (14.9%) of fever, 2 cases (1.5%) of sore throat, 1 case (0.7%) of nausea, and 1 case (0.7%) of diarrhea; no adverse reactions of grade 2 or above occurred. The difference in the incidence of adverse reactions among the three groups was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The efficacy of GM-CSF and G-CSF for the prevention of infections in pediatric hematologic neoplasms during the myelosuppression phase after chemotherapy is roughly equivalent, and combination of both has a good tolerance. The incidence of respiratory infection using GM-CSF alone or GM-CSF+G-CSF is low, which might benefit from the effect of GM-CSF on lung infections.

Objective:To understand the status of young nurses' turnover intentions in the ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals of our country, and explore its influencing factors from personal factors and organizational factors, and so as to provide a reference for reducing the turnover of young nurses and stabilizing the team of young nurses.Methods:This study is a cross-sectional study. From December 2016 to June 2018, stratified sampling and cluster sampling were used to select young nurses from 10 hospitals in 7 administrative regions of China as the research subject. The Intent to Leave Questionnaire, General Information Questionnaire, Career Growth Scale of Nurses, General Self-Efficacy Scale, Work-Family Support Scale and Organizational Commitment Scale were used to understand young nurses' turnover intentions and organizational factors. Logistic regression was used to explore the influencing factors of turnover intention. A total of 11 466 questionnaires were returned, and 10 781 young nurses were surveyed.Results:Among the 10 781 young nurses in ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals across our country, 3 612 nurses (33.5%, 3612/10 781) had intention to leave, of which 413 nurses (3.8%, 413/10 781) had very strong intention to leave. Logistic regression analysis showed that male ( OR=1.268) , only child ( OR=1.177) , high self-efficacy ( OR=1.671) were risk factors for turnover intention ( P<0.05) , having children ( OR=0.845) , have changed work place ( OR=0.788) , formal authorized strength ( OR=0.852) , higher interest in nursing ( OR=2.161) , high level of career growth ( OR=0.517) , high level of work-family support ( OR=0.523) , and high level of organizational commitment ( OR=0.633) were protective factors for turnover intention ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The turnover intention of young nurses in ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals across our country is at a high level. Medical institutions need to focus on creating a good environment, providing good work-family support, and increasing nurses' organizational commitment and professional interest, so as to reduce the turnover of young nurses.

BACKGROUND:Neural stem cells (NSCs) hold self-renewal and multi-directional differentiation potential. NSCs differentiation into neurons in high proportion under induction conditions exhibits broad application prospect. OBJECTIVE:To explore the effect of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF)-chitosan carrier on the NSCs differentiation into neurons in vitro, and whether the differentiated neurons could form synaptic-like connection with myocytes. METHODS:After purification, the NSCs were co-cultured with chitosan, soluble bFGF or bFGF-chitosan carrier. After 7-day induction, the NSCs differentiation into neurons was observed by immunofluorescence staining of beta tubulin Ⅲ. The NSCs differentiation into cholinergic neurons was observed through double immunofluorescence staining of ChaT and beta tubulin Ⅲ. The synaptic-like connection between the neurons and myocytes was observed by triple staining of beta tubulin Ⅲ and MHC. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The percentage of differentiated neurons in the bFGF-chitosan carrier group was 74%, which was significantly higher than that in the other two groups. Additionally, the synaptic-like connection formed between the differentiated neurons and myocytes. To conclude, the bFGF-chitosan carrier promotes the NSCs differentiation into neurons to form synaptic-like connection with the co-cultured myocytes.

OBJECTIVE:To systematically review the efficacy and safety of the generic and original preparation of atorvas-tatin,and provide evidence-based reference for clinical treatment. METHODS:Retrieved from PubMed,EMBase,Cochrane Li-brary,CJFD,Wanfang Database,VIP and CBM,related randomized controlled trials(RCT)about generic preparation of atorvas-tatin(test group)versus original preparation of atorvastatin(control group)were collected. Meta-analysis was performed by using Rev Man 5.3 software after data extract and quality evaluation. RESULTS:Totally 16 RCTs were included,involving 2 077 pa-tients. Results of Meta-analysis showed,compared with control group,there were no significant differences in reducing total choles-terol (TC) [MD=-0.06,95%CI(-0.14,0.01),P=0.11],triglyceride (TG) [MD=-0.00,95%CI(-0.08,0.08),P=0.99], low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) [MD=-0.07,95%CI(-0.16,0.01),P=0.09],increasing high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C)[MD=-0.00,95% CI(-0.03,0.03),P=0.96] and the incidence of major adverse cardiac events(MACE) [OR=1.18,95%CI(0.71,1.97),P=0.52] in test group;in terms of safety,compared with control group,there were no significant differences in the resulting in alanine aminotransferase (ALT) increased [OR=1.08,95%CI(0.51,2.30),P=0.83],the incidences of myalgia [OR=2.46,95%CI(0.70,8.65),P=0.16] and gastrointestinal adverse reactions [OR=1.11,95%CI(0.64,1.95),P=0.71]. CONCLUSIONS:Both the generic and original preparation of atorvastatin can effectively reduce blood lipid levels,with sim-ilar safety.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation combined with duloxetine in treatment of depression. Methods Sixty-nine cases of depression were randomly divided in?to study group (n=35 patients) and control group (n=34 patients). The study group received duloxetine combined with 1Hz rTMS treatment on the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex area for 6 weeks whereas the control group received duloxetine combined with pseudo-rTMS treatment for 6 weeks. The Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD-24) and Treatment Emergent Symptom Scale (TESS) were used to assess the clinical efficacy and the adverse reactions before, 2, 4 and 6 weeks after the treatment, respectively. Results Four patients (two from each group) dropped out of the study. The main effects of time (P<0.001) and groups (P=0.029) were significant and so was the interactive effect of time and group (P<0.001). The clinical curative effect of the study group were significantly better compared with the control group at the 2, 4, 6 weeks following treatment (P<0.001). The adverse reactions were mild in these two groups. Conclusions The combi?nation of 1 Hz rTMS with duloxetine is superior to either medication alone for the treatment depression.

Objective To understand the family burden of Alzheimer' s disease (AD) and associated factors.Methods The subjects were 168 caregivers of patients with AD selected from two class 3A hospitals and three communities in Taiyuan through cluster sampling.The data were collected by using the Caregiver Burden Inventory (CBI) and the Family Burden Scale (FBS) of diseases.Path analysis was applied to identify the factors associated with the total score of CBI.T-test and One-way analysis of variance were applied to identify the factors associated with the total score of FBS.Multiple linear regression analysis was applied to identify the factors associated with family burden of AD.Results The total score of the caregivers' burden was 52.41 ± 17.07.AD patients' cognitive function had direct (standardized β =-0.280,P＜0.001) and indirect effect on CBI;while daily performance of AD patients had indirect effect on CBI.The total score of family burden was 16.23 ± 9.00.Univariate analysis showed that the sex,age,education level,cognitive function,daily performance,mental status,depression and dementia rating of AD patients might affect the total score of FBS (P ＜ 0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that the factors which affected the total score of FBS included the sex (standardizedβ =0.280,P ＜ 0.01),cognitive function (standardizedβ =-0.158,P =0.033) and daily performance of AD patients (standardizedβ=-0.155,P=0.039).Conclusion The caregiver and family burden of AD was mainly associated with the cognitive function and daily performance of AD patients.It is necessary to take targeted measures to reduce the caregiver and family burden of AD.
