Objective::To compare the analgesic effects of ibuprofen administered orally via two modes combined with a conventional, patient-controlled intravenous analgesia pump on maternal pain after cesarean section (CS).Methods::This prospective, randomized, controlled study enrolled females who underwent CS from August 2022 to August 2023 at Peking University First Hospital, Beijing, China. Participants were randomly assigned to either an as-needed ibuprofen group (300 mg orally upon request) or a scheduled ibuprofen group (300 mg every 12 hours for 48 hours). The primary outcomes assessed were postoperative pain levels using the Wong-Baker Faces Pain Scale-Revised and cumulative oxycodone consumption at multiple time points up to 48 hours post-delivery. Secondary outcomes included recovery parameters (time to first flatus, ambulation, and lactation initiation), patient satisfaction with pain control, and postpartum depression scores evaluated by the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale on postoperative day 3. Normally distributed data analyzed with t-tests; non-normal data with Mann-Whitney U tests; categorical variables with chi-square or Fisher’s exact tests (SPSS 26.0, P < 0.05). Results::After excluding 61 non-eligible cases, 339 patients were included (171 as-needed vs. 168 scheduled). The scheduled group showed significantly better pain control at 12 hours (4.00 (2.00-5.50) vs. 4.00 (4.00-6.00), P < 0.001), 24 hours (4.00 (2.00-4.00) vs. 4.00 (2.00-6.00), P < 0.001), and 36 hours (2.00 (2.00-4.00) vs. 4.00 (2.00-4.00), P < 0.001), and 48 hours (2.00 (2.00-4.00) vs. 2.00 (2.00-4.00), P = 0.004) post-delivery and lower levels of oxycodone consumption at 36 hours (10.20 (8.20-13.35) vs. 11.00 (8.80-14.40), P = 0.042) and 48 hours (12.40 (10.40-15.95) vs. 13.80 (11.00-16.00), P = 0.020) postpartum compared with those in the as-needed group. Additionally, the time to the return of bowel movements was shorter in the scheduled group than in the as-needed group (23.50 (16.94, 31.47) vs. 27.00 (19.88, 35.97), P = 0.004). Differences in post-delivery ambulation, lactation initiation, satisfaction levels, and depression scores were not significantly different between the two groups. Conclusion::The results of this study promote the use of ibuprofen (scheduled oral administration) combined with a conventional, patient-controlled intravenous analgesia pump for achieving better post-CS pain control than an as-needed dosage regimen.Registration::Chinese Clinical Trial Registry, ChiCTR2400082474.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (haplo-HSCT) in treating pediatric Diamond-Blackfan anemia (DBA).Method:Clinical data of five pediatric DBA recipients who underwent haplo-HSCT at the Children's Hospital of Soochow University between June 2018 and June 2023 were retrospectively analyzed. The conditioning regimen comprised a backbone protocol of fludarabine, busulfan, and rabbit anti-human thymocyte immunoglobulin (Bu+Flu+ATG), with optional cyclophosphamide, rituximab, or thiotepa. Post-transplant prophylaxis for graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) included cyclosporine A/tacrolimus combined with mycophenolate mofetil and methotrexate. Outcome measures included neutrophil and platelet engraftment times, hematopoietic reconstitution, incidence and severity of post-transplant complications, hemoglobin maintenance, and survival status. Literature was searched in CNKI, Wanfang, and PubMed using the keywords "Diamond-Blackfan anemia" "DBA" and "haplo-HSCT" in both English and Chinese.Result:The median age at transplantation was 61 months. Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) matching ranged from 5-8/10 loci. Stem cell sources included bone marrow alone (1 case), bone marrow plus peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCT, 2 cases), umbilical cord blood (CB-HSCT, 1 case), and PBSCT combined with CB-HSCT (1 case). All five recipients achieved successful engraftment with complete hematopoietic and immune reconstitution. Median neutrophil and platelet engraftment times were 11 days and 9 days, respectively, with erythroid reconstitution at 25 days post-transplant. Complications included grade IV acute GVHD (aGVHD) in one recipient, grade I aGVHD in two recipients, and chronic GVHD (cGVHD) in one recipient. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection occurred in three cases, and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection in one case, all of which resolved with ganciclovir. No other transplant-related complications were reported. At a median follow-up of 44.8(4.8-59.2) months, all recipients were alive with sustained erythroid reconstitution and disease-free survival. Literature review (six studies) confirmed HSCT as an effective treatment for DBA, with prognosis closely related to age at transplantation, conditioning regimens, and donor selection.Conclusion:Haplo-HSCT can be considered as a viable treatment option for pediatric DBA recipients.

Objective·To investigate the predictive value of the Clinical Frailty Scale(CFS)in the long term outcomes in acute myocardial infarction(AMI)patients who completed in-hospital cardiac rehabilitation(CR).Methods·A total of 501 AMI patients treated in the Cardiology Center of Shanghai Sixth People's Hospital,Shanghai Jiao Tong University of Medicine from May 2020 to May 2022 were prospectively enrolled,with their baseline clinical data collected.The patients completed graded in-hospital CR and were assessed by CFS based on their completion of CR before discharge.Patients were then categorized into three groups(norm group,vulnerable group and frail group)according to their CFS level.The difference in 1-year major cardiovascular event(all-cause death and re-hospitalization for heart failure)rates among the three groups was investigated.Logistic regression analysis was performed to explore the effective risk factors relevant to the outcomes,and receiver operator characteristic(ROC)curves were generated to analyze the prognostic value.Finally,an optimal prediction model was developed.Results·The CFS level in AMI patients who completed CR was positively correlated with age and peak pro-B-type natriuretic peptide(peak proBNP),and inversely correlated with gender difference(P<0.05).Accompanied with the elevated CFS level,the incidence of both outcomes increased,and there were significant differences in all-cause death(2.6%,5.6%and 15.2%,P=0.002),and while no significant differences in re-hospitalization for heart failure among the three groups(19.6%,22.2%and 24.2%).All-cause death of the frail group was significantly higher than that of the norm group(P=0.004),while there was no significant difference between the vulnerable group and the norm group.CFS could sensitively predict the 1-year all-cause death in AMI patients(β=1.89,OR=6.61,P=0.001),and the risk model combined with CFS had the best predictive effect(AUC=0.845,P=0.000).Conclusion·Assessment by CFS in AMI patients who completed in-hospital CR contributes to identifying AMI patients with high risk of all-cause death in 1 year.

Objective: To evaluate the efficiency and safety of low intensity conditional regimen for children with Fanconi anemia (FA) receiving allogenic hematopoietic stem cells transplantation (allo-HSCT). Methods: Four patients diagnosed as Fanconi anemia were enrolled in this study. One patient received HLA-identical sibling donor hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, two patients underwent unrelated donor matched (UD) HSCT, and one patient received unrelated cord blood transplantation. The conditional regimen consisted of Busulfan with low dose of cyclophosphamide. Results: All 4 cases succeeded in allo-HSCT. The median time for neutrophils engraftment was 11(9-15) day, median time to platelets (PLT) engraftment was 12 (8-28) day. One case occurred with grade I of aGVHD, 1 case with hemorrhagic cystitis. No patient happened with hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD). Conclusion Low intensity of conditional regimen is efficient and safe which should be recommended for FA patients with HSCT.

The safety of decitabine as bridging treatment before allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in children with refractory hematological malignancies was evaluated.All 11 cases succeeded in hematopoietic reconstitution.The main adverse reaction was hematological toxicity.Neither did infections occur,nor drug-induced liver damage and renal impairment during decitabine administration.Most cases showed grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ gastrointestinal adverse events.One case was diagnosed as severe acute graft versus host disease and died of intracranial hemorrhage on day 61 after allo-HSCT.The other 10 patients survived.Decitabine bridge is a safe regimen before allo-HSCT in children with refractory hematological malignancies.

Objective To explore the curative effect and prognosis of umbilical cord blood in the treatment of hematological diseases in children. Method The clinical data of 51 children who underwent umbilical cord blood transplantation from January 2011 to June 2016 were analyzed retrospectively. Results In 51 children (34 males and 17 females) with median age of 62 months, 32 children had malignant hematologic diseases and 19 children had nonmalignant hematologic diseases. Two children died before the granulocytes were reconstructed, 4 children had primary implantation failure, and 45 children had successfully implantation. The median time of implantation was 16 d, and the median time of platelet implantation was 23 d. The incidence of peri-implantation syndrome was 46.94%. The 100 day survival rate and long-term overall survival (OS) in children with peri-implantation syndrome were (73.9±9.2)% and (50.2±11.7)% respectively, which were significantly lower than the OS (100%) in children without peri-implantation syndrome (P<0.01). The incidence of acute graft versus host disease (aGVHD) was 55.10%, among which Ⅱ-Ⅲ degrees of aGVHD was 28.57% and Ⅳdegrees of aGVHD was 26.53%. The 100 day OS in children with Ⅳ degrees of aGVHD was (61.5±13.5)%, and The OS in children with Ⅲ and Ⅳ degrees of aGVHD were (75.0±21.7)% and (44.9±14.1)% respectively, and the OS in children without aGVHD was (90.2±6.6)%. The difference was statistically significant (χ2=14.35,P=0.002). The incidence of chronic GVHD (cGVHD) was 28.57%. The long-term OS in children with cGVHD was (72.7±13.4)%, while OS in children without cGVHD was 100%. The 100 days OS was (86.0±4.9)%. Long-term OS in cord blood transplantation was (77.9±6.3)%, among which OS for malignant hematological diseases was (76.6±7.8)% and OS for nonmalignant hematological diseases was (79.5±11.3)%. Among malignant hematological diseases, the OS in acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) was (87.5±11.7)%, OS in acute myeloid lymphocytic leukemia (AML) was (76.7±10.3)%, and OS in myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) was (33.3±27.2)%. Conclusions Umbilical cord blood transplantation is an effective treatment for hematologic diseases in children. It is important to treat the peri-implantation syndrome. Prevention and treatment Ⅲ/Ⅳ degree of aGVHD and cGVHD are important strategies to improve the efficacy of umbilical cord blood transplantation.

Objective To investigate the characteristics of cognitive impairment and psychotic symptoms in general paresis of insane (GPI) before and after penicillin therapy, and explore factors that may predict the clinical outcomes. Methods Thirty patients with GPI were recruited. All GPI patients underwent a comprehensive neuropsychological assessment before receiving penicillin therapy, and returned for follow-up visits after 7 months. The severity of dementia was determined by Clinical Dementia Rating Scale (CDR), cognitive functions were assessed by Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) and Alzheimer 's Disease Assessment Scale-cognitive subscale (ADAS-Cog), ability of daily living was assessed by Instrumental Activities of Daily Living Scale (IALD) and Physical Self maintenance Scale(PSMS), behavioral and psychological symptoms were assessed by Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI). Aqueous crystalline penicillin G 24 million units per day was administered as continuous infusion for 14 days, followed by benzathine penicillin 2.4 million units IM once per week for 3 weeks. Patients returned for follow-up visits after 7 months. Clinical outcomes were determined by the improvement of neuropsychological test scores at the end of the treatment. Grouped by CDR scores, changes in neuropsychological tests scores among different GPI groups were used to explore the correlation between severity of dementia and clinical outcomes. Univariate analysis and multivariate linear regression analysis were used to identify factors that may predict the clinical outcomes. Results (1)After penicillin therapy, GPI patients' MMSE scores(14.4± 6.9 vs.17.1 ± 9.1)and IADL scores(4.0(2.0, 5.0)vs.6.0(2.0, 7.3))both improved significantly(t=5.820, Z=3.710, P<0.01),while in ADAS-Cog, only factor scores of attention(1.5(0.7, 3.0)vs.1.5(0, 2.3))reduced significantly(Z=- 2.680, P<0.01). NPI's total scores(46.0 ± 27.1 vs.17.6 ± 15.4)and subscores of hallucination, delusion, agitation, depression, euphoria, disinhibition and irritability reduced significantly (Z=-4.940,-2.381,-2.504,-3.095,-2.492,-3.097,-2.527,-3.715, all P<0.05).(2) Grouped by the CDR scores, MMSE scores and IADL scores in very mild GPI group with CDR=0.5 improved significantly. In mild GPI group with CDR=1, significant changes were also found in all neuropsychological tests scores(MMSE,t=5.409, P<0.01), total scores of ADAS-Cog (Z=-2.366,P<0.05), IADL (Z=2.546, P<0.05), total scores of NPI (Z=-3.558,P<0.01), but except for PSMS. In moderate to severe GPI group with CDR>1,significant change was found only in total scores of NPI (t=-3.772,P<0.05). (3) Univariate analysis and multivariate linear regression analysis showed that improvement of MMSE scores after the treatment was significantly correlated with IADL scores and MMSE scores at baseline(β=0.541,P=0.004;β=0.364,P=0.044). Conclusions After penicillin treatment, GPI patients may improve in both cognitive function and psychotic symptoms but not in all the domains. Symptoms of anxiety, sleep/nigh-time behavior change, and apathy, as well as moderate to severe GPI patients may not benefit much from the treatment.
