Objective:To identify factors influencing treatment-free remission (TFR) outcomes in children and adolescent patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) after imatinib (IM) discontinuation.Methods:This multicenter retrospective study analyzed 36 children and adolescent patients with CML from eight hematology centers in China (December 1, 2016, to September 27, 2024) who discontinued IM therapy with documented post-cessation outcomes. Clinical characteristics and molecular response dynamics were assessed. Univariate analysis and multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression models were employed to assess factors associated with TFR outcomes.Results:A total of 36 patients were documented, comprising 17 males and 19 females. The median ages at CML diagnosis and IM discontinuation were 11 years ( IQR: 5,16) and 20 years ( IQR: 14,25), respectively. The median time from IM initiation to first deep molecular response (DMR) was 21 months ( IQR: 13, 38). Pre-discontinuation, patients received IM for a median duration of 96 months ( IQR: 84, 121) and maintained DMR for 74 months ( IQR: 63, 89). With a median post-discontinuation follow-up of 38 months ( IQR: 15, 68), cumulative TFR rates at 6, 12, 24, and 36 months were 74.1%, 60.7%, 60.7%, and 56.0%, respectively, generating an overall TFR rate of 58.3%. Fifteen patients lost major molecular response at a median of 5 months post-discontinuation ( IQR: 3, 11). All 15 patients resumed tyrosine kinase inhibitor therapy, comprising 13 who restarted IM and 2 who switched to dasatinib. By the last follow-up, 13 (86.7% ) patients regained DMR after a median treatment duration of 5 months ( IQR: 3, 17), and no disease progression occurred in any patient. Withdrawal syndrome occurred in 2 (5.6% ) patients. Univariate analysis revealed significantly higher TFR rates in patients with pre-discontinuation IM duration of ≥100 months vs <100 months (82.4% vs 36.8%, P=0.017) and pre-discontinuation DMR duration of ≥72 months vs <72 months (84.2% vs 29.4%, P=0.003). Multivariate Cox analysis identified pre-discontinuation DMR duration as an independent protective factor for TFR ( HR=5.419, 95% CI: 1.524–19.272, P=0.009) . Conclusion:DMR duration was identified as an independent protective factor influencing TFR outcomes in children and adolescent patients with CML after IM discontinuation. Patients who maintained DMR for ≥72 months before IM discontinuation demonstrated a significantly higher TFR rate.

Objective:To identify circulating proteins associated with cardiovascular, renal, and cardiorenal comorbidity events in individuals with metabolic syndrome, to construct a predictive model incorporating these proteins to improve prediction accuracy and to investigate their mediating effects on the interplay between cardiovascular and renal diseases.Methods:Data from the UK Biobank cohort were utilized. Cox proportional hazards models were applied to identify circulating proteins associated with various outcomes, followed by time-truncated sensitivity analyses. A predictive model incorporating protein scores was then developed using the LightGBM algorithm and compared with other models. Gene Ontology(GO) functional enrichment analysis was performed to explore the biological pathways of the identified proteins. Finally, mediation effect analysis was conducted to assess the role of circulating proteins in cardiorenal interactions. Results:The Cox analysis identified 180, 275, and 322 circulating proteins associated with cardiovascular events, renal events, and cardiorenal comorbidity events, respectively. Incorporating protein scores significantly improved model performance; the areas under the curve(AUC) for cardiovascular, renal, and cardiorenal events were 0.833, 0.907, and 0.890, respectively. GO functional enrichment analysis demonstrated significant enrichment in pathways such as cytokine activity(GO: 0005125), glycosaminoglycan binding(GO: 0005539), and humoral immune response(GO: 0006959) among all outcome-related proteins. Notably, EDA2R, GDF15, and WFDC2 exhibited significant mediating effects, each with mediation proportions exceeding 10%. Conclusions:A predictive model incorporating circulating protein scores can substantially improve prediction accuracy for cardiovascular and renal outcomes in individuls with metabolic syndrome.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical characteristics of Crohn's disease (CD) patients with secondary upper gastrointestinal fistulas and analyze risk factors for recurrence.Methods:A restrospective observational research method was performed. Clinical data of CD patients with secondary upper gastrointestinal fistulas treated at Eastern Theater General Hospital of PLA from January 2010 to August 2024 were analyzed. Based on postoperative recurrence of upper gastrointestinal fistulas, the patients were divided into recurrence group and non-recurrence group. Differences in clinical data between the two groups were compared, and further multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for fistula recurrence.Results:A total of 72 CD patients with secondary upper gastrointestinal fistulas were included, consisting of 48 males and 24 females, with a mean age of 39±12 years and a disease duration of 97±56 months, accounting for 2.8% of all CD patients undergoing surgeries during the same period. Among these patients, 75 upper gastrointestinal fistulas from 72 patients were identified, including 67 patients of simple duodenal fistula, 2 of simple gastric fistula, and 3 of double fistulas (2 of double duodenal fistulas and 1 of duodenal fistula combined with gastric fistula) .The preoperative diagnostic positivity rates were 55.6% (40/72) for gastroscopy, 54.2% (39/72) for upper gastrointestinal contrast imaging, 22.2% (16/72) for abdominal CT, and 22.2% (16/72) for colonoscopy. A history of biologic therapy was present in 33.3% (24/72) of patients, but none achieved fistula healing. All 72 patients underwent surgical treatment, with primary lesion surgical approaches including resection with anastomosis (37 patients, 51.4%) and resection with stoma (35 patients, 48.6%). Except for one gastric fistula treated by resection, all other fistulas underwent primary repair. During a median follow-up of 69 (40, 113) months, 8 patients (11.1%) required reoperation due to recurrent upper gastrointestinal fistulas (classified as the recurrence group), while the remaining 64 patients were assigned to the non-recurrence group. Univariate analysis revealed that the recurrence group had a higher proportion of patients aged 30-40 years ( P = 0.003), malnutrition ( P = 0.040), and anastomosis near the duodenum ( P = 0.047), but a lower proportion of postoperative biologic use ( P = 0.007) .Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that malnutrition and anastomosis near the duodenum were not the risk factors for duodenal fistula recurrence (both P > 0.05) . Conclusions:Upper gastrointestinal fistulas secondary to CD are rare, predominantly presenting as simple duodenal fistulas. Diagnosis primarily relies on gastroscopy and gastrointestinal contrast imaging. Biologic therapy shows poor efficacy, and most patients do not recur after the primary repair surgery of duodenal fistulas.

Traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome (TSOFS) is a symptom complex caused by nerve entrapment in the supraorbital fissure after skull base trauma. If the compressed cranial nerve in the supraorbital fissure is not decompressed surgically, ptosis, diplopia and eye movement disorder may exist for a long time and seriously affect the patients′ quality of life. Since its overall incidence is not high, it is not familiarized with the majority of neurosurgeons and some TSOFS may be complicated with skull base vascular injury. If the supraorbital fissure surgery is performed without treatment of vascular injury, it may cause massive hemorrhage, and disability and even life-threatening in severe cases. At present, there is no consensus or guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS that can be referred to both domestically and internationally. To improve the understanding of TSOFS among clinical physicians and establish standardized diagnosis and treatment plans, the Skull Base Trauma Group of the Neurorepair Professional Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Neurosurgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Traumatology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome ( version 2024) based on evidence of evidence-based medicine and clinical experience of diagnosis and treatment. This consensus puts forward 12 recommendations on the diagnosis, classification, treatment, efficacy evaluation and follow-up of TSOFS, aiming to provide references for neurosurgeons from hospitals of all levels to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS.

Objective:To retrospectively analyze the treatment status of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) in newly diagnosed patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in China.Methods:Data of chronic phase (CP) and accelerated phase (AP) CML patients diagnosed from January 2006 to December 2022 from 77 centers, ≥18 years old, and receiving initial imatinib, nilotinib, dasatinib or flumatinib-therapy within 6 months after diagnosis in China with complete data were retrospectively interrogated. The choice of initial TKI, current TKI medications, treatment switch and reasons, treatment responses and outcomes as well as the variables associated with them were analyzed.Results:6 893 patients in CP ( n=6 453, 93.6%) or AP ( n=440, 6.4%) receiving initial imatinib ( n=4 906, 71.2%), nilotinib ( n=1 157, 16.8%), dasatinib ( n=298, 4.3%) or flumatinib ( n=532, 7.2%) -therapy. With the median follow-up of 43 ( IQR 22-75) months, 1 581 (22.9%) patients switched TKI due to resistance ( n=1 055, 15.3%), intolerance ( n=248, 3.6%), pursuit of better efficacy ( n=168, 2.4%), economic or other reasons ( n=110, 1.6%). The frequency of switching TKI in AP patients was significantly-higher than that in CP patients (44.1% vs 21.5%, P<0.001), and more AP patients switched TKI due to resistance than CP patients (75.3% vs 66.1%, P=0.011). Multi-variable analyses showed that male, lower HGB concentration and ELTS intermediate/high-risk cohort were associated with lower cytogenetic and molecular responses rate and poor outcomes in CP patients; higher WBC count and initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher response rates; Ph + ACA at diagnosis, poor PFS. However, Sokal intermediate/high-risk cohort was only significantly-associated with lower CCyR and MMR rates and the poor PFS. Lower HGB concentration and larger spleen size were significantly-associated with the lower cytogenetic and molecular response rates in AP patients; initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher treatment response rates; lower PLT count, higher blasts and Ph + ACA, poorer TFS; Ph + ACA, poorer OS. Conclusion:At present, the vast majority of newly-diagnosed CML-CP or AP patients could benefit from TKI treatment in the long term with the good treatment responses and survival outcomes.
