Objective To investigate the clinical significances of additional chromosome abnormalities and t(15;17) in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). Methods A total of 90 newly diagnosed APL patients in the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from January 2007 to June 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. Patients with different chromosome karyotypes were divided into four groups: additional chromosome number abnormalities group (16 cases), additional chromosome structural abnormalities group (14 cases), additional chromosome number and structural abnormalities group (4 cases) and typical chromosome group (56 cases). According to whether the patient contained t(15;17), the patients were divided into group with t (15;17) and group without t (15;17). The short-term efficacy and survival of each group were analyzed and compared. Results The rate of complete remission in additional chromosome number abnormalities group, additional chromosome structural abnormalities group, additional chromosome number and structural abnormalities group and typical t(15;17) chromosome changes group were 56.3％(9/16), 100.0％(14/14), 25.0％(1/4) and 82.1％(46/56), the early mortality rates were 25.0％(4/16), 0 (0/14), 75.0％(3/4) and 8.9％ (5/56) respectively. Among them, the additional number and structural abnormalities group had lower complete remission rate and higher early mortality rate, and compared with other groups, the differences were statistically significant (all P< 0.05). The complete remission rates of the group with t (15;17) and the group without t (15;17) were 80.5％ (66/82) and 50.0％ (4/8), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (P= 0.070). Conclusions APL patients with karyotypes with additional number and structural changes have low complete remission rate, high early mortality rate and poor prognosis. Patients with t(15;17)have a high rate of complete remission.

Objective To explore the work experience of specialty nurses for chronic wounds. Methods Five specialty nurses for chronic wounds were enrolled and given semi-structured in-depth interviews.The acquired data were analyzed with the 7-step analysis of Colaizzi. Result Three themes were extracted including responsibility and sense of mission, problems, gains and growth. Conclusions The responsibility is fundamental for the specialty nurses to hold their firm belief in their nursing career.They grow and achieve in their occupation by nursing the patients with chronic wounds.The nursing administration should understand the problems and help the work of chronic wounds specialists,take measures to clarify the responsibilities and roles of specialists in chronic wound nursing and provide necessary resource to support.
