Objective:To investigate the clinical features and prognostic factors of pediatric patients with acute hyperleukocytic leukemia (AHL).Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted. The clinical data of 99 pediatric patients diagnosed with AHL who admitted to the Affiliated Huai'an No.1 People's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University between May 2015 and November 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The enrolled children were grouped based on the following factors including gender, age, initial white blood cell count (WBC), initial lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), whether tumor lysis syndrome (TLS) occurred, immunophenotype, fusion gene, whether complete remission (CR) was achieved on the 19th day (D19) after transplantation, and whether CR was achieved on the 46th day (D46) after transplantation. All the patients were treated with the chemotherapy regimen of Shanghai Children's Medical Center - Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia - 2015 (SCMC-ALL-2015). Flow cytometry was used to monitor the minimal residual disease (MRD); fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) was used to screen out the mutant genes. The median follow-up time was 47 months. The Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis, and the log-rank test was used for intergroup comparisons. Multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression model was used to screen out the the prognostic factors.Results:Among 99 AHL patients, there were 65 males and 35 females; the median age was 7.71 (3.32, 11.20) years. At the initial diagnosis, 48 cases had WBC≤100×10 9/L, and 51 cases had WBC>100×10 9/L; 36 cases had LDH ≤ 2 000 U/L, and 63 cases had LDH > 2 000 U/L; 3 cases had TLS, 5 cases had MLL::AF4 positive, 7 cases had BCR::ABL positive, 7 cases had E2APBX1 positive, and 10 cases had TEL::AML1 positive; 28 cases were acute T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL), and 71 cases were acute B-cell lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL). At D19, 74 cases achieved bone marrow CR; at D46, 82 cases achieved bone marrow CR; 3-year and 5-year OS rates were 74.5% and 71.3%, respectively. During the follow-up, 14 cases relapsed and 15 died, including 12 dying of relapse, 2 dying of infection and 1 case dying of pulmonary graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). There were statistically significant differences in the 3-year OS rate in patients with different age, initial WBC, initial LDH, immunophenotyping, whether bone marrow CR at D19 was achieved, whether MRD at D19 occurred, whether bone marrow CR at D46 was achieved, whether MRD at D46 occurred, the presence of TLS, MLL::AF4 positive and TEL::AML1 positive (all P < 0.05). Furthermore, multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that LDH(>2 000 U/L), MLL::AF4 positive, T immunophenotyping, relapse, not achieving bone marrow CR at D19, not achieving bone marrow CR at D46, and MRD positive at D46 were independent risk factors influencing 3-year OS rate (all P < 0.05). Conclusions:Pediatric patients with AHL have high tumor burden at early stage, and TLS may cause death. Patients treated with the SCMC-ALL-2015 protocol can achieve favorable therapeutic effects and prognosis. LDH, MLL::AF4, immunophenotyping and relapse are prognostic factors.

Most cancers are currently incurable, partly due to abnormal post-translational modifications (PTMs). In this study, we initially used multiple myeloma (MM) as a working model and found that SUMOylation activating enzyme subunit 1 (SAE1) promotes the malignancy of MM. Through proteome microarray analysis, SAE1 was identified as a potential target for bioactive colcemid or its derivative colchicine. Elevated levels of SAE1 were associated with poor clinical survival and increased MM proliferation in vitro and in vivo. Additionally, SAE1 directly SUMOylated and upregulated the total protein expression of p27, leading to LLPS-mediated nuclear export of p27. Our study also demonstrated the involvement of SAE1 in other types of cancer cells, and provided the first monomer crystal structure of SAE1 and its key binding model with colchicine. Colchicine also showed promising results in the Patient-Derived Tumor Xenograft (PDX) model. Furthermore, a controlled clinical trial with 56 MM patients demonstrated the clinical efficacy of colchicine. Our findings reveal a novel mechanism by which tumor cells evade p27-induced cellular growth arrest through p27 SUMOylation-mediated nuclear export. SAE1 may serve as a promising therapeutic target, and colchicine may be a potential treatment option for multiple types of cancer in clinical settings.

Background The retail milk tea industry is in a period of rapid development, but there is little research on its nutrient content, which restricts the nutritional guidance of milk tea. Objective To determine the levels of nutrients in best-selling handcrafted milk tea in Shanghai and analyze the nutritional characteristics. Methods In 2018 and 2021, a total of 13 handcrafted milk tea brands with ≥3 branch stores in Shanghai were selected by searching for milk tea on Meituan and Ele.me food delivery platforms, and a total of 122 types of handcrafted milk tea products were collected from the top three sales [milk tea (including all sweetness levels available), milk cover tea, and fruit tea]. National standard methods were used to detect energy, protein, fat, carbohydrate, sugar, trans fatty acid, calcium, caffeine, and tea polyphenol. Results The median energy of the milk tea samples was 310 kJ (per 100 g sample). The main sources of energy were carbohydrate and fat. The levels of energy, protein, and fat in milk cover tea and milk tea were significantly higher than those in fruit tea (P＜0.05), and there was no significant difference in carbohydrate among them. The total sugar, fructose, and glucose levels in milk tea were significantly lower than those in milk cover tea and fruit tea, and the lactose level in fruit tea was significantly lower than those in milk tea and milk cover tea (P＜0.05). Themedian trans fat acid level in milk cover tea was higher than that in milk tea (P＜0.05). The median levels of caffeine and tea polyphenol were higher in milk tea than in milk cover tea (P＜0.05). The levels of energy, carbohydrate, sucrose, total sugar, and calcium in milk tea were positively correlated with the number of ingredients added (0-3) (r=0.386, 0.371, 0.238, 0.698, 0.466, respectively, P < 0.05). The levels of energy, carbohydrate, and total sugar tended to increase with increasing sweetness (P<0.05), and total sugar was mainly sucrose, followed by fructose and glucose. The total sugar levels of the samples labeled sugar free, light sugar, half sugar, less sugar, and regular sugar were 3.40 (2.20, 4.9), 4.97 (4.25, 5.97), 5.80 (4.31, 6.88), 6.59 (5.17, 8.53), and 7.96 (6.82, 9.20) g, respectively; the proportions of the samples containing more than 0.5 g of total sugar were 93.3% for sugar free milk tea, 47.4% for light sugar milk tea, and 94.0% for regular sugar milk tea; the proportion of the regular sugar samples with sugar content greater than 10 g was 18.0% (all samples with nominal sugar content were measured per 100 g). Conclusion The retail handcrafted milk tea in Shanghai is characterized by high energy, high added sugar, high fat, and low protein. It is necessary to standardize the added sugar content and sweetness labeling, strengthen the nutrition education of milk tea, and guide residents to limit its intake.

Background Children and adolescents drink sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) frequently. Research has confirmed that SSBs associate with weight gain and overweight or obesity. However, it is unclear whether high SSBs intake associates with abnormal changes in physical growth and glucolipid metabolism before causing adverse health outcomes such as overweight and obesity. Early identification of associated health risks of overconsumption of SSBs have important public health implications. Objective To investigate the differences in physical growth and glucolipid metabolism between different SSBs intake frequency groups in normal weight children and adolescents aged 6-17 years, and to evaluate the early effects of SSBs intake on physical growth and glycolipid metabolism before causing overweight and obesity, aiming to provide a scientific basis for the prevention and control of childhood overweight and obesity and related chronic diseases, and for the formulation of policies on the control of SSBs consumption. Methods Data were from the Shanghai Diet and Health Survey (SDHS) among primary and secondary school students. The participants were normal weight children and adolescents aged 6-17 years. Propensity scores were calculated according to energy intake and physical activity factors, after stratifying by age and gender. Participants were 1:1 matched with the closest propensity scores in the high-frequency (≥1 time·d⁻¹) and the low-frequency (≤1 time·week⁻¹) SSBs intake groups. The outcome indicators were physical measurements such as height, weight, percent of body fat, and waist circumference, and metabolic indicators such as fasting blood glucose, total triglycerides, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. Body mass index (BMI) was calculated. Food frequency questionnaire was used to collect SSBs consumption in the past three months through face-to-face interview. A paired t-test was used to compare the differences in physical and glycolipid metabolic indicators between the high-frequency intake group and the low-frequency intake group of SSBs. Results A total of 431 pairs were obtained. For children and adolescents in grades 6-9, overall height (difference=2.92 cm, P=0.002), weight (difference=2.53 kg, P=0.003), and waist circumference (difference=1.34 cm, P=0.035) were higher in those who consumed SSBs ≥1 time·d⁻¹ than in those who consumed ≤1 time·week⁻¹. For children and adolescents in grades 10-12, overall weight (difference=2.27 kg, P=0.041) was higher in those who consumed SSBs ≥1 time·d⁻¹ than in those who consumed ≤1 time·week⁻¹. Over 95% of the study subjects reported blood glucose and lipid test results within the normal range; but girls in grades 1-5 who consumed SSBs ≥1 time·d⁻¹ had a higher total cholesterol (difference=0.20 mmol·L⁻¹, P=0.027) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (difference=0.19 mmol·L⁻¹, P=0.010) than those who consumed ≤1 time·week⁻¹; boys in grades 6-9 who consumed SSBs ≥1 time·d⁻¹ had a lower high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (difference=-0.10 mmol·L⁻¹, P=0.039) than those who consumed ≤1 time·week⁻¹. Conclusion High-frequency intake of SSBs may be associated with higher total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in normal weight children and adolescents in grades 1-5, and higher weight in normal weight children and adolescents in grades 6-12. There is an urgent need to educate children and adolescents about nutritional health, enhance their ability to make healthy food and beverage choices, and take early interventions to control the intake of SSBs in children.

To investigate the correlation between different endoscopic ultrasonographic signs and pathological risk grade of gastric stromal tumors. Data of 89 patients with gastric stromal tumors confirmed by pathology and immunohistochemistry who underwent gastroscopy and endoscopic ultrasonography in Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University from March 2013 to December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The endoscopic ultrasonographic characteristics of gastric stromal tumors with different risk degrees were compared. Among the 89 cases, 63 were very low-risk grade, 21 were low-risk grade, and 5 were intermediate-risk grade. Tumor size, echo homogenicity, ulcer, with or without regular boundary, and cystic change were correlated with tumor risk grade ( P<0.05). Endoscopic ultrasonography is helpful to predict risk grade of gastric stromal tumors before surgery.

Two-way referral system is an important measure to promote the rational distribution of medical resources and promote the health of patients, but now there is a typical characteristic of"referrals up easy but downward referral difficult". while the transitional care of downward referral patients is one of the important impetus to promote the implementation of downward referral, this paper summarizes the necessity, connotation, main service forms, application effects and problem analysis status of the transitional referral of patients in the two-way referral mode in our country, in order to provide the basis for the establishment of a nursing security system suitable for two-way referral of patients.
