OBJECTIVE: To analyze the clinical features of acute myeloid leukemia patients with DEK-NUP214 fusion gene positive. METHODS: The DEK-NUP214 fusion gene was amplified by multi-nested PCR in 26 patients admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 2018 to October 2023, and the disease course and post-transplant survival data were obtained by searching outpatient and inpatient medical records and telephone follow-up. RESULTS: The median follow-up time of pateints was 21.25（0.9-60.2） months. Among 26 patients with DEK-NUP214 fusion gene positive AML, 15 patients had FLT3-ITD gene mutation positive. One patient died after abandoning treatment due to non-remission of induction chemotherapy, one died due to infection, and 23 patients received allo-HSCT after achieving CR, of which one patient died within one month after transplantation due to multiple infections and one died due to severe pulmonary infection that did not respond to treatment. One patient received allo-HSCT in non-remission state and later died due to recurrence. CONCLUSION DEK-NUP214 fusion gene positive AML is a type of acute leukemia subtype with high risk and poor prognosis. Allo-HSCT treatment at the early stage of disease remission is the most effective way to improve the prognosis of patients.

Objective To compare the effects of 20 mg qd and 10 mg bidadministration of iprrazole enteric-coated tablets on the control of gastric acid in healthy subjects.Methods A randomized,single-center,parallel controlled trial was designed to include 8 healthy subjects.Randomly divided into 2 groups,20 mg qd administration group:20 mg enteric-coated tablets of iprrazole in the morning;10 mg bid administration group:10 mg enteric-coated tablets of iprrazole in the morning and 10 mg in the evening.The pH values in the stomach of the subjects before and 24 h after administration were monitored by pH meter.The plasma concentration of iprazole after administration was determined by HPLC-MS/MS.The main pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by Phoenix WinNonlin(V8.0)software.Results The PK parameters of iprrazole enteric-coated tablets and reference preparations in fasting group were as follows:The Cmax of 20 mg qd group and 10 mg bid group were(595.75±131.15)and(283.50±96.98)ng·mL-1;AUC0-t were(5 531.94±784.35)and(4 686.67±898.23)h·ng·mL-1;AUC0-∞ were(6 003.19±538.59)and(7 361.48±1 816.77)h·ng·mL-1,respectively.The mean time percentage of gastric pH＞3 after 20 mg qd and 10 mg bid were 82.64％and 61.92％,and the median gastric pH within 24 h were 6.25±1.49 and 3.53±2.05,respectively.The mean gastric pH values within 24 h were 5.71±1.36 and 4.23±1.45,respectively.The correlation analysis of pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamics showed that there was no significant correlation between the peak concentration of drug in plasma and the inhibitory effect of acid.Conclusion Compared with the 20 mg qd group and the 10 mg bid group,the acid inhibition effect is better,the administration times are less,and the safety of the two administration regimes is good.

Objective With the assistance of 3D visualization and real-time navigation technologies,the tumors in the parapharyngeal and lateral skull base should be removed through oral the approach with endoscopy.Methods The preoperative CT data of eight patients with parapharyngeal or lateral skull base soft tissue tumors were modeled,and the anatomical position relationship between the tumor and surrounding blood vessels and other important structures was re-constructed using 3D visualization technology,and preop-erative design was performed.The intraoperative oral ap-proach and real-time navigation guidance were adopted in the endoscopic resection of soft tissue tumors in the parapharyngeal and lateral skull base,and the clinical ap-plication value of this method was evaluated.Results The blood loss during the operation was controlled within 150 mL,and the average blood loss was approximately 125 mL.The incidence of postoperative complications was low,and patients could recover well through functional training.The oral approach did not leave any wounds nor scars on the patient's facial skin after the operation and had no effect on the patient's appearance.Conclusion The combination of 3D visualization technology,intraoperative real-time navigation,and endoscopy provides a beautiful,safe,and minimally invasive surgical method for patients with parapharyngeal or lateral skull base tumors.

Objective To understand the respiratory protection competency of staff in hospitals.Methods Staff from six hospitals of different levels and characteristics in Beijing were selected,including doctors,nurses,medical technicians,and servicers,to conduct knowledge assessment on respiratory protection competency.According to exposure risks of respiratory infectious diseases,based on actual cases and daily work scenarios,content of respira-tory protection competency assessment was designed from three aspects:identification of respiratory infectious di-seases,transmission routes and corresponding protection requirements,as well as correct selection and use of masks.The assessment included 6,6,and 8 knowledge points respectively,with 20 knowledge points in total,all of which were choice questions.For multiple-choice questions,full marks,partial marks,and no mark were given respective-ly if all options were correct,partial options were correct and without incorrect options,and partial options were correct but with incorrect options.Difficulty and discrimination analyses on question of each knowledge point was conducted based on classical test theory.Results The respiratory protection competency knowledge assessment for 326 staff members at different risk levels in 6 hospitals showed that concerning the 20 knowledge points,more than 60％participants got full marks for 6 points,while the proportion of full marks for other questions was relatively low.Less than 10％participants got full marks for the following 5 knowledge points:types of airborne diseases,types of droplet-borne diseases,conventional measures for the prevention and control of healthcare-associated infec-tion with respiratory infectious diseases,indications for wearing respirators,and indications for wearing medical protective masks.Among the 20 knowledge questions,5,1,and 14 questions were relatively easy,medium,and difficult,respectively;6,1,4,and 9 questions were with discrimination levels of ≥0.4,0.30-0.39,0.20-0.29,and ≤0.19,respectively.Conclusion There is still much room for hospital staff to improve their respiratory protection competency,especially in the recognition of diseases with different transmission routes and the indications for wearing different types of masks.

Objective:To investigate the correlations of urinary adverse reactions with dose to the bladder and urethra during external pelvic irradiation for locally advanced cervical cancer.Methods:This study retrospectively collected relevant dosimetric parameters and urinary symptoms, such as frequent, urgent, and painful urination, from locally advanced cervical cancer patients treated with external pelvic irradiation in the Department of Oncology, Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University. The dosimetric parameters examined in this study included the maximum, minimum, and mean doses to bladder and urethra (i.e., Dmax, Dmin and Dmean), mean doses received in an area of 0.1, 1, and 2 cm 3 around the planning target volume, D0.1 cm 3, D1 cm 3, D2 cm 3, and percentages of irradiated volumes in the whole organ volume under doses of 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50 Gy, V5 Gy, V10 Gy, V15 Gy, V20 Gy, V25 Gy, V30 Gy, V35 Gy, V40 Gy, V45 Gy, V50 Gy. Then the correlations between urinary symptoms and these dosimetric parameters were analyzed using the independent-sample t-test and the Logistic regression model. Results:The median volumes of bladder and urethra were 294.8 and 4.71 cm 3, respectively. Patients were divided into two groups based on the median division. The univariate analysis showed that urethral Dmax, Dmin, Dmean, V5 Gy, V10 Gy, V15Gy, V20 Gy, V25 Gy, V30 Gy, V35 Gy, V40 Gy, V45 Gy and V50 Gy correlated with urinary complications ( t = 14.30, 21.65, 32.19, 33.36, 16.62, 17.91, 21.52, 20.11, 12.27, 37.25, 30.18, 36.24 and 21.98, P<0.05). The multivariate analysis further indicates that urethral D2 cm 3, V20 Gy, V40 Gy and Bladder V40 Gy, D1 cm 3, D2 cm 3 were independent predictors of grade 2 urinary adverse reactions ( P<0.05). Conclusions:This study reported the correlations of relevant dosimetric parameters of urethra with urinary toxicity during external pelvic irradiation. It holds that urethral D2 cm 3, V20 Gy and V40 Gy should be restricted to minimize the risks of grade 2 urinary complications.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy and safety of Beimu Zhizhu Prescription(derived from the modification of Zhizhu Pills)in the treatment of GERC by retrospectively analyzing the clinical data of 297 patients with gastroesophageal reflux cough(GERC).Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted in a total of 297 patients with GERC of rebellious stomach qi type who were admitted to the Outpatient Department of Wangjing Hospital of China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences from July 2021 to July 2023.The patients were divided into an exposure group(136 cases)and a non-exposure group(161 cases)according to the medication of Beimu Zhizhu Prescription or not.The exposure group was treated with Beimu Zhizhu Decoction,and the non-exposure group was treated with proton pump inhibitor of Esomeprazole Magnesium Enteric-coated Tablets.A total of 119 pairs of cases were obtained after propensity score matching(PSM)at the ratio of 1 to 1.The changes of salivary pepsin level before and after treatment in the two groups were observed.After two weeks and eight weeks of treatment,the cough response rate and the remission rates for reflux-related symptoms of acid reflux,heartburn,belching and gastric distension were compared between the two groups,and the incidence of adverse reactions was recorded.Results(1)After two weeks of treatment,the comparison of symptom remission rate after PSM showed that the cough response rate and the remission rates for reflux-related symptoms of acid reflux,heartburn,belching and gastric distension in the exposure group were 84.87％(101/119),80.77％(84/104),82.61％(76/92),82.5％(66/80),84.42％(65/77),respectively,and those in the non-exposure group were 73.95％(88/119),72.90％(78/107),70.41％(69/98),65.38％(51/78),64.38％(47/73),respectively.The intergroup comparison showed that the remission rates for all of the symptoms except for acid reflux in the exposure group was significantly superior to that in the non-exposure group(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).After eight weeks of treatment,the cough response rate and the remission rates for reflux-related symptoms of acid reflux,heartburn,belching,and gastric distension in the exposure group were 94.74％(36/38),91.67％(33/36),91.43％(32/35),93.75％(30/32),94.12％(32/34),respectively,and those in the non-exposure group were 77.78％(35/45),74.42％(32/43),71.43％(30/42),68.42％(26/38),66.67％(24/36),respectively.The intergroup comparison showed that the remission rate of all of the symptoms in the exposure group was significantly superior to that in the non-exposure group(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).(2)After two weeks of treatment,the comparison of salivary pepsin level after PSM showed that the salivary pepsin level of the exposure group was significantly lower than that before treatment(P＜0.01),while that of the non-exposure group was not significantly decreased(P＞0.05).The decrease of salivary pepsin level in the exposure group was significantly superior to that in the non-exposure group.Statistically significant differences were presented in the post-treatment salivary pepsin level after two weeks of treatment and in the pre-and post-treatment difference of salivary pepsin level between the two groups(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).(3)There were four cases(2.48％)of adverse reactions in the non-exposure group,while no related adverse reactions occurred in the exposure group.There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(x2=1.180,P=0.178).Conclusion Beimu Zhizhu Decoction can effectively relieve cough and reflux-related symptoms of acid reflux,heartburn,belching,and gastric distension in patients with GERC of rebellious stomach qi type,reduce the level of salivary pepsin,and has high safety.

This report presents a case of a male infant, aged 32 days, who was admitted to the hospital due to 2 days of bloody stools and 1 day of fever. Upon admission, venous blood samples were collected, which appeared pink. Blood biochemistry tests revealed elevated levels of triglycerides and total cholesterol. The familial whole genome sequencing revealed a compound heterozygous variation in the LPL gene, with one variation inherited from the father and the other from the mother. The patient was diagnosed with lipoprotein lipase deficiency-related hyperlipoproteinemia. Acute symptoms including bloody stools, fever, and bloody ascites led to the consideration of acute pancreatitis, and the treatment involved fasting, plasma exchange, and whole blood exchange. Following the definitive diagnosis based on the genetic results, the patient was given a low-fat diet and received treatment with fat-soluble vitamins and trace elements, as well as adjustments to the feeding plan. After a 4-week hospitalization, the patient's condition improved and he was discharged. Follow-up showed a decrease in triglycerides and total cholesterol levels. At the age of 1 year, the patient's growth and psychomotor development were normal. This article emphasizes the multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment of familial hyperlipoproteinemia presenting with symptoms suggestive of acute pancreatitis, including bloody ascites, in the neonatal period.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the efficacy and safety of colistin sulfate in the treatment of hematonosis patients infected by multidrug-resistant (MDR) gram-negative bacteria (GNB), and discuss the possible factors that affect the efficacy of colistin sulfate. METHODS: The clinical data of 85 hematologic patients infected with MDR GNB in the Soochow Hopes Hematonosis Hospital from April 2022 to November 2022 were collected and divided into clinically effective group with 71 cases and ineffective group with 14 cases according to the therapeutic efficacy of colistin sulfate. The age, gender, type of hematologic disease, status of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, infection sites, type of pathogen, timing of administration, daily dose and duration of colistin sulfate, and combination with other antibacterial agents of patients in two groups were compared. Logistic regression was used to analyze on the meaningful variables to study the influencing factors of colistin sulfate. The adverse reactions of colistin sulfate were also evaluated. RESULTS: There were no significant differences in age, gender, type of hematologic disease, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation status, infection sites and pathogen type between the effective group and the ineffective group (P>0.05). Compared with the medication time more than 7 days, meropenem used within 7 days in the clinical effective group, and timely replacement with colistin sulfate could obtain better efficacy, the difference was statistically significant (P=0.018). The duration of tigacycline before colistin sulfate did not affect the efficacy, and there was no significant difference in efficacy between the effective and ineffective groups. The therapeutic effect of colistin sulfate at daily dose of 500 000 U q8h was better than that of 500 000 U q12h, the difference was statistically significant (P=0.035). The time of colistin sulfate use in the clinically effective group was longer than that in the ineffective group, which had a statistical difference (P=0.003). Compared with the clinical ineffective group, the efficacy of combination regimens with colistin sulfate was better than that of colistin sulfate monotherapy, and the difference was statistically significant (P=0.013). Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed on the indicators with statistical differences in the two groups of patients, which suggested that the use time of colistin sulfate (B: 2.358; OR: 10.573; CI: 1.567-71.361; P=0.015) and the combination of colistin sulfate (B: 1.720; OR: 5.586; CI: 1.210-25.787; P=0.028) were influential factors in the efficacy of colistin sulfate. During the treatment, the incidence of nephrotoxicity, hepatotoxicity and peripheral neurotoxicity were 5.9%, 1.2% and 1.2%, respectively. CONCLUSION The use of colistin sulfate improves the clinical efficacy of MDR GNB infections in hematological patients, and the timing of colistin sulfate administration and the combination of drugs are independent factors affecting its clinical efficacy, and the safety during treatment is high.
