Objective To compare the efficacies of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT)in the treatment of post-chronic aplastic anemia(CAA)myelodysplastic syndrome(MDS)and primary MDS.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 32 patients who received allo-HSCT treatment in Department of Hematology,North China University of Science and Technology Affiliated Hospital between Feb.2012 and Feb.2022,including 12 patients with post-CAA MDS and 20 patients with primary MDS.The overall survival rate,cumulative incidence of relapse(CIR)rate,non-relapse mortality(NRM)rate,and event-free survival rate were compared between the 2 groups.Results The median follow-up time for CAA to progress to MDS was 120(72-180)months.All the patients were followed up for 36(3-79)months after allo-HSCT.The 3-year overall survival rate of the post-CAA MDS group was significantly higher than that of the primary MDS group(83.8%vs 45.0%,P=0.035).The 3-year CIR of the post-CAA MDS group was significantly lower than that of the primary MDS group(16.7%vs 55.0%,P=0.021).There was no significant difference in the event-free survival rates or NRM rates between the 2 groups(both P＞0.05).Conclusion The post-CAA MDS patients have better survival after allo-HSCT than the primary MDS patients.Early allo-HSCT treatment may improve the prognosis.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of serum mast cell carboxypeptidase(MC-CP),C-C motif chemokine 26(CCL26),and decoy receptor 3(DcR3)in the diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome(OSAS)in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).Methods Ninety COPD patients who visited the First Affiliated Hospital of Hebei North University from January 2021 to January 2023 were collected.Among them,48 patients with simple COPD were included in the COPD group,and 42 patients with COPD combined with OSAS were included in the COPD-OSAS group.During the same period,48 healthy volunteers who underwent physical examination in that Hospital of Hebei North collected as the control group.Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was applied to detect serum level of MC-CP,CCL26,and DcR3.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was applied to analyze the clinical value of serum level of MC-CP,CCL26,and DcR3 in the diag-nosis of COPD complicated with OSAS.Multivariate Logistic regression was applied to analyze the influencing fac-tors of COPD complicated with OSAS.Results Compared with the control group,the smoking index,C-reactive protein(CRP)and white blood cell count(WBC)in the COPD and COPD-OSAS groups increased obviously in sequence,the ratio of forced expiratory volume in first second to forced vital capacity(FEV1/FVC)decreased obviously in sequence(P<0.05);Compared with the control group,the level of MC-CP,CCL26,and DcR3 in patients with COPD and COPD-OSAS increased significantly in sequence(P<0.05);The combination of serum MC-CP,CCL26 and DcR3 had a higher area under the curve(AUC)for the diagnosis of COPD complicated with OSAS compared to the individual diagnosis(Z=4.066,P<0.001;Z=2.391,P<0.05;Z=2.353,P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that smoking index,serum level of MC-CP,CCL26 and DcR3 were influencing factors for COPD complicated with OSAS(P<0.05).Conclusions The simultane-ously increased expression of MC-CP,CCL26 and DcR3 in the serum of COPD may support clinical diagnostic of COPD patients with OSAS.

Objective To compare the efficacy of tegoprazan and esomeprazole in treatment of reflux esophagitis(RE)and analyze the influencing factors for treatment failure.Methods A total of 120 RE patients were selected as study subjects and divided into control group(treated with esome-prazole)and observation group(treated with tegoprazan)using random number table method,with 60 cases in each group.The clinical efficacy and gastroscopic efficacy of the two groups were com-pared.Based on the gastroscopic assessment results,the patients were divided into failure group(26 cases)and success group(94 cases).The clinical data of the failure group and the success group were collected and compared.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was used to screen the influen-cing factors for treatment failure in RE patients.Results The total clinical effective rate in the ob-servation group was 93.33％(56/60),which was higher than 76.67％(46/60)in the control group(P＜0.05).The total effective rate under gastroscopy in the observation group was 88.33％(53/60),which was higher than 68.33％(41/60)in the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The proportions of patients with body mass index(BMI)＞28 kg/m2,diabe-tes,a family history,Helicobacter pylori(Hp)infection,Los Angeles classification(LA classifica-tion)of gastroesophageal reflux disease(GERD)grade C to D,and treated with esomeprazole in the failure group were all higher than those in the success group,and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that BMI＞28 kg/m2,con-comitant diabetes,LA classification grade C to D,and treatment with esomeprazole were all inde-pendent risk factors for treatment failure in RE patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion Tegoprazan has a significant clinical effect in treatment of RE,and its efficacy is superior to that of esomeprazole.BMI＞28 kg/m2,concomitant diabetes,LA classification grade C to D,and treatment with esome-prazole are all risk factors for treatment failure in RE patients.

OBJECTIVE To explore the self precipitation source of Erhuang powder, determine the content of related components and its efficacy on HeLa cells. METHODS Bifurcation study to identify the main compatibility of precipitating. The self precipitation, supernatant and extract of Erhuang powder were analyzed by UHPLC-Q-Exactive MS. The main compounds in Coptidis Rhizoma and Catechu, catechin, epicatechin, epicberberine, coptisine, berberine and palmatine were selected as controls. A analysis method of UHPLC for self precipitation, supernatant and extract of Erhuang powder was established and the related components were quantitatively determined. The effects of self precipitation, supernatant and extract on HeLa cells were evaluated by MTT method and flow cytometry. RESULTS A slight flocculation precipitate appeared when the decoction of Erhuang powder was mixed in pairs, while a large amount of flocculation appeared when the decoction of Coptidis Rhizoma and Catechu water was mixed. The self precipitation, supernatant and extract samples contained 39 compounds, which were mainly alkaloids and phenolic acids. The contents of catechin and berberine in the 6 index components were mostly, which accounted for 73.56% of the total content of the index components in self precipitation and 61.89% of the total content of the index components in extract. Inhibition effect on HeLa cells: extract ≈ self precipitation > supernatant, and inducing apoptosis: self precipitate ≈ extract, supernatant had no apoptosis-inducing effect. CONCLUSION Coptidis Rhizoma-Catechu is the main compatible formula for precipitation formation. The self precipitation and extracts of Erhuang powder are mainly alkaloids and phenolic acids, among which berberine and catechin are high in content and can be used as representative components. The effect of self-precipitation and extract on HeLa cells was better than that of supernatant. This basically indicates that the self precipitation components and pharmacological effects of Erhuang powder are similar to those of the extract.
