Objective:To explore the therapeutic efficacy and prognostic factors of combined rituximab and intensive chemotherapy for sporadic adult Burkitt lymphoma (BL) .Methods:This retrospective study examined the clinical and survival data of 30 patients newly diagnosed with BL between July 2011 and February 2023 at the Blood Diseases Hospital. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis, and the log-rank test was used for univariate analysis of prognostic factors.Results:The median age of the 30 patients was 43 years (24 - 66 years), and the male to female ratio was 3: 2. Extranodal invasion was present in 80% of the patients, with involvement of the bone marrow in 53.3% and central nervous system in 10.0%. The Ann Arbor stage was Ⅲ and Ⅳ in 86.7%. According to the number of Burkitt Lymphoma International Prognostic Index (BL-IPI) risk factors, patients were classified as low risk (0) in 20.0%, intermediate risk (1) in 43.3%, and high risk (≥2) in 36.7%. All patients were treated with an induction regimen of rituximab combined with intensive chemotherapy, with objective and complete response rates of 80.0% and 76.7%, respectively. The median follow-up was 49 months (6-153 months), and the 5-year progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were both (76.7±7.7) %. All patients with limited stage ( n=4) achieved continuous complete remission (CCR). Patients who had high risk, advanced stage sensitive to induction therapy ( n=10) sequentially received first-line autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) as consolidation therapy; 9 patients achieved CCR, whereas 1 patient with central nervous system invasion developed early disease progression and died. The BL-IPI low, intermediate, and high risk groups had respective 5-year PFS rates of (83.3±15.2) %, 100.0%, and (45.5±15.0) % ( P=0.0069) and OS rates of (83.3±15.2) %, 100.0%, and (45.5±15.0) % ( P=0.0075). The main adverse effects of induction therapy were myelosuppression and secondary infections, which were effectively managed by appropriate symptomatic treatment. Univariate analysis demonstrated that worse PFS was associated with BL-IPI score ≥2 ( HR=4.90, 95% CI 1.02-23.45, P=0.0329) ; extranodal invasion at ≥2 sites ( HR=12.62, 95% CI 2.59-61.62, P=0.0021) ; and failure to achieve first complete response (CR1) after induction therapy ( HR=31.86, 95% CI 4.19-242.20, P<0.0001) . Conclusions:Intensive immunochemotherapy regimens were effective and well-tolerated by adult patients with highly aggressive BL. Treatment efficacy was ideal in patients with limited-stage disease, whereas prognosis was unsatisfactory in patients with high-risk BL-IPI. Sequential first-line auto-HSCT consolidation therapy may further improve outcomes in patients with high-risk advanced-stage disease who are sensitive to induction therapy. BL-IPI score ≥2, extranodal invasion at ≥2 sites, and failure to achieve CR1 after induction therapy were adverse prognostic factors in adult patients with BL.

Microbiota can be recognized by the human immune system,trigger specific immune responses,and play a significant role in the onset and progression of diseases through intricate regulatory mechanisms.The tumor microenvironment comprises the peritumoral extracellular matrix,immune cells,tumor-associated fibroblasts,and endothelial cells,among others.In this context,the tumor immune microenvironment,characterized by immune cells,significantly influences cancer progression and treatment.Notably,the tumor immune microenvironment is closely associated with the tumor microbiota.The presence of respiratory microbiota is correlated with the typing and staging of non-small cell lung cancer.This study investigated the mechanisms by which respiratory microbiota affect innate and adaptive immune cells within the tumor immune microenvironment and explored the role of respiratory microbiota in the immunotherapy of non-small cell lung cancer.The aim was to identify potential biomarkers that could enhance the diagnosis and treatment of non-small cell lung cancer.

Objective:To observe the effects of rolling manipulation with different durations on erector spinae muscle tonus and low back pain in patients with lumbar muscle strain and to explore the best duration for rolling manipulation in treating lumbar muscle strain. Methods:A total of 75 patients who met the inclusion criteria were randomized into a 5-minute rolling manipulation group,a 10-minute rolling manipulation group,and a 15-minute rolling manipulation group using the random number table method,with 25 cases in each group.All three groups were treated with the same rolling manipulation,while the treatment time was 5 min,10 min,and 15 min,respectively.The treatment was performed 3 times a week for 2 consecutive weeks.The muscle tonus of bilateral erector spinae and visual analog scale(VAS)score for low back pain were compared among the three groups before and after treatment. Results:A total of 63 patients completed the study.Before treatment and after the last treatment,there were no statistical differences in the muscle tonus of the left erector spinae and right erector spinae among the three groups(P>0.05).After the last treatment,bilateral erector spinae muscle tonus dropped compared with the baseline in all three groups(P<0.01).Before treatment and after the last treatment,there were no significant differences in comparing the low back pain VAS score among the three groups(P>0.05).After the last treatment,the VAS score for low back pain in all three groups decreased(P<0.01). Conclusion:Under the condition that the forward swing force is 50-70 N,the backward swing force is 20-40 N,and the frequency is 138 times/min,the 5-minute rolling manipulation can significantly reduce the muscle tonus of erector spinae and relieve low back pain.

Implantation of drug-eluting stents (DES) is one of the most effective treatment for intraluminal vascular diseases such as vascular stenosis caused by atherosclerosis. Antiproliferative drugs offered by could significantly reduce the restenosis of blood vessels, which is beneficial to interventional therapy in more advanced and complex vascular diseases. This review sumarizes the state-of-the-art of the DES based on the function of loaded drug and material of the stents. We hope this review can provide basic information of DES for clinicians and researchers to make more rational choices in practical applications. Moreover, this review also propses the prospects of drug-loaded stents.

Objective: To investigate the clinical status of lymphoid tissue neoplasms patients with bacteria bloodstream infections, bacteriology and drug susceptibility results, and provide the basis for rational clinical anti-infection option. Methods: A retrospectively analysis of clinical data and bacterial susceptibility test results of patients with bacteria bloodstream infections from September 2010 to December 2014 was conducted. Results: A total of 134 cases including 107 patients with bloodstream infections were enrolled. 84 cases were male, 50 cases were female, the median age was 31 (12-71) years old. 112 cases were agranulocytosis, and 106 cases were severe agranulocytosis (ANC<0.1×10⁹/L) . 27 cases underwent hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, 100 cases received chemotherapy[33 cases with VD (I) CP±L (vincristine+daunorubicin/idarubicin + cyclophosphamide + prednison±asparaginasum) induction chemotherapy, 41 cases with intensive chemotherapy of Hyper-CVAD/MA or MA (mitoxantrone+cytarabine) , 26 cases with other chemotherapy regimens], and 7 cases were infected without chemotherapy. 10 patients discharged from hospital owing to treatment abandoning, 120 cases were cured through anti-infective therapy, 2 patients died of bacteria bloodstream infections, 1 patient died of sudden cardiac, and 1 patient died of GVHD after allogenic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. A total of 144 strains were isolated, including 108 strains (75.0%) of Gram-negative bacteria and 36 strains (25.0%) of Gram-positive cocci. The susceptibility of Gram-negative bacteria to the carbapenems was 98.00%, and the adjustment treatment rate of carbapenems was 3.0%. The susceptibility of Gram-negative bacteria to the other antibiotics was 60.30%, and the adjustment treatment rate was 90.5%. The susceptibility of Grampositive cocci to the carbapenems was 49.3%, and to glycopeptides and linezolid was 100.0%. Comparing all patients’empirical use of antimicrobial agents with the drugs susceptibility results of blood cultures, 80.1% of the patients’initial drug selection was sensitive. Conclusion The lymphoid neoplasms patients experienced bacteria bloodstream infections most often after receiving the chemotherapy regimens of treating acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The majority type of bacteria was Gram-negative bacteria. Drug susceptibility test showed that susceptibility of Gram-negative bacteria to the carbapenems was the highest, and the treatment adjustment rate was obviously lower. The susceptibility of Gram-positive cocci to glycopeptides and linezolid was high, and which could be applied to the patients with Gram-positive cocci sepsis on basis of susceptibility results in general.
