Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor de-escalation and nicorandil therapy in elderly patients with acute coronary syndrome(ACS)after percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Methods A total of 300 elderly patients with ACS were selected from the Sixth and Seventh Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital and Beijing Chaoyang Integrative Medicine Emergency Rescue and First Aid Hospital from November 2016 to June 2019,including 153 males and 147 females,aged>65 years old.All the patients received PCI,and all had double antiplatelet therapy(DAPT)scores≥2 and a new DAPT(PRECISE-DAPT)score of≥25.All patients were divided into two groups by random number table method before operation:ticagrelor group(n=146,ticagrelor 180 mg load dose followed by PCI,and ticagrelor 90 mg bid after surgery)and ticagrelor de-escalation + nicorandil group(n=154,ticagrelor 180 mg load dose followed by PCI,ticagrelor 90 mg bid+nicorandil 5 mg tid after surgery,changed to ticagrelor 60 mg bid+ nicorandil 5 mg tid 6 months later).Follow-up was 12 months.The composite end points of cardiovascular death,myocardial infarction and stroke,the composite end points of mild hemorrhage,minor hemorrhage,other major hemorrhage and major fatal/life-threatening hemorrhage as defined by the PLATO study,and the composite end points of cardiovascular death,myocardial infarction,stroke and bleeding within 12 months in the two groups were observed.Results The comparison of general baseline data between the two groups showed no statistically significant difference(P>0.05).There was also no significant difference in the composite end points of cardiovascular death,myocardial infarction and stroke between the two groups(P>0.05).The cumulative incidence of bleeding events in ticagrelor de-escalation + nicorandil group was significantly lower than that in ticagrelor group(P<0.05),while the composite end points of cardiovascular death,myocardial infarction,stroke and bleeding were also significantly lower than those in tecagrelor group(P<0.05).Conclusion In elderly patients with ACS,the treatment of ticagrelor de-escalation + nicorandil after PCI may not increase the incidence of ischemic events such as cardiovascular death,myocardial infarction or stroke,and it may reduce the incidence of hemorrhagic events.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of acute T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia(T-ALL)in children and explore the prognostic risk factors.Methods:The clinical data of 127 newly diagnosed children with T-ALL admitted to five hospitals in Fujian province from April 2011 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed,and compared with children with newly diagnosed acute precursor B-cell lymphoblastic leukemia(B-ALL)in the same period.Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to evaluate the overall survival(OS)and event-free survival(EFS),and COX proportional hazard regression model was used to evaluate the prognostic factors.Among 116 children with T-ALL who received standard treatment,78 cases received the Chinese Childhood Leukemia Collaborative Group(CCLG)-ALL 2008 protocol(CCLG-ALL 2008 group),and 38 cases received the China Childhood Cancer Collaborative Group(CCCG)-ALL 2015 protocol(CCCG-ALL 2015 group).The efficacy and serious adverse event(SAE)incidence of the two groups were compared.Results:Proportion of male,age ≥ 10 years old,white blood cell count(WBC)≥ 50 × 109/L,central nervous system leukemia,minimal residual disease(MRD)≥ 1％during induction therapy,and MRD ≥ 0.01％at the end of induction in T-ALL children were significantly higher than those in B-ALL children(P＜0.05).The expected 10-year EFS and OS of T-ALL were 59.7％and 66.0％,respectively,which were significantly lower than those of B-ALL(P＜0.001).COX analysis showed that WBC ≥ 100 x 109/L at initial diagnosis and failure to achieve complete remission(CR)after induction were independent risk factors for poor prognosis.Compared with CCLG-ALL 2008 group,CCCG-ALL 2015 group had lower incidence of infection-related SAE(15.8％vs 34.6％,P=0.042),but higher EFS and OS(73.9％vs 57.2％,PEFS=0.090;86.5％vs 62.3％,PoS=0.023).Conclusions:The prognosis of children with T-ALL is worse than children with B-ALL.WBC ≥ 100 × 109/L at initial diagnosis and non-CR after induction(especially mediastinal mass has not disappeared)are the risk factors for poor prognosis.CCCG-ALL 2015 regimen may reduce infection-related SAE and improve efficacy.

Objective:To analyze the related factors of treatment failure in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL)in real-world.Methods:The clinical data of 1414 newly diagnosed children with ALL admitted to five hospital in Fujian province from April 2011 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.Treatment failure was defined as relapse,non-relapse death,and secondary tumor.Results:Following-up for median time 49.7 (0.1-136. 9)months,there were 269 cases (19.0％)treatment failure,including 140 cases (52.0％)relapse,and 129 cases (48.0％)non-relapse death.Cox univariate and multivariate analysis showed that white WBC≥50 ×109/L at newly diagnosis,acute T-cell lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL),BCR-ABL1,KMT2A-rearrangement and poor early treatment response were independent risk factor for treatment failure (all HR>1.000,P<0.05).The 5-year OS of 140 relapsed ALL patients was only 23.8％,with a significantly worse prognosis for very early relapse (relapse time within 18 months of diagnosis).Among 129 patients died from non-relapse death,71 cases (26.4％)were died from treatment-related complications,56 cases (20.8％)died from treatment abandonment,and 2 cases (0.7％)died from disease progression.Among them,treatment-related death were significantly correlated with chemotherapy intensity,while treatment abandonment were mainly related to economic factors.Conclusion:The treatment failure of children with ALL in our province is still relatively high,with relapse being the main cause of treatment failure,while treatment related death and treatment abandonment caused by economic factors are the main causes of non-relapse related death.

Objective To use MRI susceptibility weighted imaging(MRI-SWI)to examine cerebral microbleeds(CMB)in elderly Parkinson's disease(PD)patients,and analyze the relationship be-tween CMB and cognitive impairment in them.Methods A prospective cohort study was conduc-ted on 80 elderly PD patients admitted to Huai'an No.3 People's Hospital from June 2020 to April 2024.All patients underwent MRI-SWI examination and PD-Cognitive Rating Scale(PD-CRS).According to the results of MRI-SWI examination,they were divided into a CMB positive group(17 cases)and a CMB negative group(63 cases),and based on the results of PD-CRS,they were also assigned into a cognitive impairment group(34 cases)and a normal cognitive group(46 ca-ses).General clinical data were compared between the CMB positive and negative groups,and be-tween the cognitive impairment group and normal cognitive group.CMB type and severity were compared between the cognitive impairment group and the normal cognitive group.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was applied to investigate the relationship between CMB and cognitive impairment in elderly PD patients.Results The CMB positive group had longer PD course,ad-vanced Hoehn Yahr(H-Y)late stage,higher unified Parkinson's disease rating scale(UPDRS)Ⅰscore,and larger ratio of cognitive impairment than the CMB negative group(P＜0.05,P＜0.01).The proportion of cognitive impairment in patients with lobular CMB was higher than that in deep-subtentorial CMB and mixed patients,and the proportion of cognitive impairment in patients with severe CMB was higher than that in patients with mild and moderate CMB(P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the occurrence of cognitive impairment in elderly PD patients was related to the course of disease,H-Y mid stage,H-Y late stage,CMB,and UPDRS Ⅰ score,which may be risk factors for cognitive impairment(OR=1.356,95％CI:1.121-1.640;OR=16.585,95％CI:2.532-108.623;OR=5.786,95％CI:1.073-31.206;OR=6.553,95％CI:1.066-40.281;OR=2.102,95％CI:1.384-3.194).Conclusion The coexistence of CMB in elderly PD patients can increase the risk of cognitive impairment,with a higher risk of cognitive impairment in cerebral lobe CMB and severe CMB.Therefore,early detection is crucial.

Based on the octahedral modifiable structures and kinetic inertness, platinum (IV) complexes have become antitumor prodrug candidates to mitigate platinum (II) drug resistance and side effects. The nitrobenzoxadiazole derivative (NBDHEX) can inhibit the activity of glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) and be introduced to conjugate with platinum(II) complexes DN603 and DN604 to yield two platinum (IV) complexes DN603/DN604-NBD. In vitro assays demonstrated that DN603/DN604-NBD could significantly inhibit the proliferation of cisplatin-sensitive A549 and resistant A549/cDDP cancer cells. The uptake of DN603/DN604-NBD in A549/cDDP cells was much higher than that of cisplatin, causing a higher rate of cell apoptosis and a greater ratio of Bax/Bcl-2, the activation of caspase-3 and cleavage of DNA repair enzyme (PARP), inducing the mitochondria-dependent cell apoptosis pathway. DN603/DN604-NBD could induce higher reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, significantly enhance phosphorylation of histone H2AX on Ser-139 (γ-H2AX) fluorescence intensity and cause a greater degree of DNA double-stranded damage. Studies have shown that GSTs kinase GSTP1 was highly expressed in cisplatin-resistant cancer cells. Moreover, DN603/DN604-NBD targeted GSTP1 to suppress its expression level. By using the ROS scavenger NAC and the c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) inhibitor SP600125 in advance, it was found that DN603/DN604-NBD could significantly increase the number of living cells and decrease the phosphorylation levels of JNK and c-Jun. The results indicated that DN603/DN604-NBD could produce higher levels of ROS to activate JNK-mediated signaling pathway, induce apoptosis in tumor cells to overcome cisplatin resistance. All the animal experiments were approved by Animal Ethics Committee of Southeast University (grant No. 20210303025). In vivo assays confirmed that DN603/DN604-NBD could inhibit the growth of A549 xenograft tumors with nearly no toxicity and fewer side effects. Taken together, DN603/DN604-NBD are investigated as two potential novel platinum (IV) prodrug candidates for anticancer therapy.

Coronary chronic total occlusion(CTO)presents one of the most formidable challenges in percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI).Left ventricular systolic dysfunction(LVSD)is frequently observed in patients undergoing CTO-PCI,who often present with more complex coronary artery lesions and a higher burden of comorbidities,leading to an elevated risk of PCI-related complications.The clinical benefits of revascularization for these patients remain controversial.How to optimize the CTO-PCI strategy and postoperative management to improve patient outcomes represents an urgent issue.This review comprehensively summarizes the clinical characteristics,interventional benefits,interventional strategies,postoperative management,as well as the short-and long-term outcomes for patients with LVSD and CTO,aiming to provide a reference for optimizing the outcome of PCI in this unique and challenging patient subgroup.
