1.The distinctive characteristics, contemporary value, and promotion path of red doctor culture in the Central Soviet Area period
Chinese Medical Ethics 2025;38(7):845-852
The red doctor culture of the Central Soviet Area is a unique revolutionary cultural form created by the Communist Party of China during the process of leading the people to establish medical and healthcare undertakings in the Central Soviet Area. It has distinctive characteristics of innovation, people’s nature, revolution, and mutual learning. This cultural form carries significant contemporary value, and its service philosophy and fine traditions of putting people’s health first provide a source of strength and a key to success for comprehensively promoting the construction of a healthy China in the new era. It is not only a powerful support for firmly upholding cultural confidence in traditional Chinese medicine, the red health revolution, and health and well-being culture with Chinese characteristics, but also a precious resource for inheriting the ideals and beliefs, the selfless dedication spirit, and the innovation spirit of the red doctor pioneers. To promote the red medicine culture of the Central Soviet Area in the new era, it is necessary to strengthen the protection and inheritance of red doctor cultural resources, deepen the research and interpretation of the generation logic, value implications, and promotion path of red doctor culture. Meanwhile, a “new model” for cultivating talents through red doctor culture should be actively constructed, a “new form” for promoting red doctor culture should be developed, and a “new format” of red-themed health tourism should be promoted.

Objective:To investigate the correlation of LymphGen genotyping with the clinicopathologic characteristics, efficacy and prognosis in patients with newly diagnosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted. The clinicopathological data and follow-up information of 132 DLBCL patients diagnosed and treated in the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2016 to January 2022 were collected. LymphGen genotyping was made based on the results of second-generation sequencing. The distributions of the main subtypes in the whole group and the stratification of all clinicopathological features were analyzed. The short-term efficacy of patients with different gene subtypes was compared. Survival analysis of patients with different gene subtypes was performed by using the Kaplan-Meier method.Results:Among the 132 patients, 69 were males and 63 were females. The median age was 60 years, with the age ranging from 13 to 87 years. Hans typing: germinal center B cell (GCB) type was detected in 49 cases, non-GCB type was detected in 81 cases, and the remaining 2 cases were unknown. Ann Arbor staging: 31 cases with stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ, 89 cases with stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ, and 9 primary central nervous system lymphoma (PCNSL) cases without stage, and the remaining 3 cases with unknown stage. Among the 132 patients, 64 cases (48.5%) were genotyped with LymphGen, including 6 cases (4.5%) of MCD subtype, 18 cases (13.6%) of A53 subtype, 17 cases (12.9%) of BN2 subtype, 3 cases (2.3%) of EZB subtype, 5 cases (3.8%) of ST2 subtype, and 15 cases (11.4%) of composite subtype, and 68 cases (51.5%) of the other subtypes; N1 subtype was not detected. The differences in the proportion of MCD subtype [5.0% (3/60) vs. 4.2% (3/71)], A53 subtype [16.7% (10/60) vs. 11.3% (8/71)], BN2 subtype [6.7% (4/60) vs. 18.3% (13/71)], EZB subtype [5.0% (3/60) vs. 0 (0/71)], ST2 subtype [5.0% (3/60) vs. 2.8% (2/71)], composite subtype [18.3% (11/60) vs. 5.6% (4/71)], other types [43.3% (26/60) vs. 57.7% (41/71)] were statistically significant between the patients with lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) < 245 U/L and those with LDH ≥245 U/L ( P = 0.023). There were no statistically significant differences in genotype distribution among subgroups with different age, gender, B symptoms, Hans typing, primary site, involvement site, Ann Arbor stage, international prognostic index score/international extranodal lymphoma study group score (all P > 0.05). After 4-6 courses treatment in PCNSL patients and 6-8 courses of standard first-line treatment in non-PCNSL patients, 17 patients with BN2 subtype [including 9 cases of complete remission (CR) and 4 cases of partial remission (PR)] and 3 patients with EZB subtype (including 2 cases of CR) had the higher proportion of those achieving good treatment outcomes. However, 15 patients with the composite subtype showed the worst outcomes including 5 cases of CR, 4 cases of PR, 1 case of stable disease, 3 cases of disease progression, and 2 death cases. The CR rates of the composite subtype group, non-composite subtype group, and other groups were 33.3% (5/15), 44.9% (22/49), and 66.2% (45/68), respectively; and the difference among these groups was statistically significant ( P = 0.034). The CR rate of composite type patients with BN2 subtype was higher compared to composite subtype patients without BN2 subtype (5/8 vs. 0/7), and the difference was statistically significant ( P = 0.023); 7 patients with A53 subtype combined with other subtypes except BN2 subtype did not achieve CR; 2 cases had PR, 3 cases had disease progression and 2 cases died. The median follow-up time was 26 months (ranging from 1 to 86 months) until the last follow-up in March 2023. There were no statistically significant differences in overall survival and progression-free survival among patients with different gene subtypes (all P > 0.05). Conclusions:The distribution of gene subtypes in DLBCL patients may be correlated with LDH levels. Patients with different gene subtypes show variations in short-term efficacy. The composite type patients with A53 subtype and without BN2 subtype have poor treatment outcomes, but no differences in overall survival and progression-free survival of patients with different gene subtypes are observed.

Objective To assess the irregular shape of hematoma with math methods,which is one of the risk factors of hematoma enlargement.Methods We reviewed images data of patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage treated nonsurgically who underwent initial computed tomography (CT) within 6 hours and repeated CT within 48 hours of onset.The area(s),the circumference(L),the greatest diameter(A)and the transverse diameter(B)of the greatest hemorrhage CT slice was measured.The formula X=L/S waft used to calculate the value.We calculated the area(S1)and the circumference (L1) of the ellipse with A as its long diameter and B as its short diameter.The formula X1=S1/L1 was used to calculate the value. We used formula R=X/X1 to assess the irregular hematoma shape.The relationships between hematoma enlargement and R was analyzed. Results Thirty-one patients(25.8%) showed enlarged hematomas after admission.The larger the value of R,the more irregular the shape of hematoma.When R≥1.3,the shape of the hematoma was significantly irregular.36.0% patients with R≥1.3 had hematoma enlarged.compared with only 18.6% those with R<1.3(χ2=4.62,P=0.032).Conclusions The irregular shape index R Can be used to assess the shape of a hematoma. A particularly high likelihood of hematoma enlargement is observed in patients with an irregularly shape index R≥1.3.
