BACKGROUND:The objective of this retrospective hospital-based study was to describe the epidemiological features of traumatic spinal cord injury(TSCI)in the intensive care unit(ICU)and assess the incidence and possible risk factors for venous thromboembolism(VTE)following TSCI. METHODS:We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of 370 patients with TSCI who were admitted between January 2018 and March 2023.The following parameters were collected:age,sex,body mass index,occupation,underlying diseases,smoking history,education level,etiology of injury,injury segments,American Spinal Injury Association(ASIA)Impairment Scale score,severity of injury,injury severity score(ISS),VTE risk score(Caprini score),treatment,VTE prophylaxis,ICU length of stay,length of hospital stay,concomitant injuries,and complications.Descriptive statistics were used to summarize the demographic and clinical characteristics of the study participants.Logistic regression analysis was used to determine the risk factors for VTE. RESULTS:The mean age of patients with TSCI was 55.5±13.4 years,with a male-to-female ratio of 6.5:1.The leading cause of TSCI was falls from height(46.5%),followed by traffic accidents(36.5%).The cervical spinal cord was the most affected segment,followed by the thoracolumbar region.Among all the patients,362(97.8%)had concomitant injuries.Complications were observed in 255 patients(68.9%)during hospitalization.The incidence rate of VTE was 25.1%.Logistic regression analysis revealed that age(OR=1.721,95%CI:1.207-2.454,P=0.003),mechanical ventilation(OR=3.427,95%CI:1.873-6.271,P<0.001),and non-use of chemical prophylaxis(OR=2.986,95%CI:1.749-5.099,P<0.001)were risk factors for VTE. CONCLUSION:Falls from height and traffic accidents were the main causes of TSCIs in the ICU,especially for male patients with cervical spinal cord injuries.VTE is a frequent complication in patients with TSCI in the ICU.Age,mechanical ventilation,and non-use of chemical prophylaxis were found to be independent risk factors for VTE following TSCI.

Sleep-related eating disorder (SRED) is a sleep disorder characterized by repeated involuntary eating and drinking. The clinic of this disease is not rare, but few reports are noted in China; doctors and patients lack of knowledge. This paper reviews the literature on SRED, summarizes the shortcomings of existing research, and proposes future research directions, aiming to provide references for researchers to further explore this field.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of daratumumab in the treatment of systemic light chain amyloidosis.Methods:The clinical data of 24 patients with systemic light chain amyloidosis who received daratumumab-based regimens in Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital from January 2020 to November 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. The treatment process of patients was summarized and the therapeutic efficacy was evaluated. Kaplan-Meier method was used to make survival analysis and the adverse reactions were analyzed.Results:All 24 patients included 2 cases (8.33%) of Mayo 2004 stageⅠ, 2 cases (8.33%) of Mayo 2004 stage Ⅱ and 20 cases (83.33%) of Mayo 2004 stage Ⅲ. All patients were treated with daratumumab-based regimen, and 17 patients had evaluable efficacy. In the chemotherapy regimens, 15 patients received DVd (daratumumab + bortezomib + dexamethasone) regimen, 7 patients received DVCd (daratumumab + bortezomib + cyclophosphamide + dexamethasone) regimen, 1 patient received DRd (daratumumab + lenalidomide + dexamethasone) regimen, and 1 patient received DTd (daratumumab +thalidomide + dexamethasone) regimen. After 1 course of daratumumab-based regimens in 17 cases with evaluable efficacy, the strict complete remission (sCR) rate was 41.18% (7/17), the overall response rate (ORR) was 88.24% (15/17). Among 17 patients who received daratumumab-based chemotherapy regimen as the first-line treatment, sCR rate of 11 cases with evaluable efficacy was 36.36% (4/11) after 1 course of treatment ORR was 90.90% (10/11). Among 5 relapsed/refractory patients, sCR rate of 4 cases with evaluable efficacy was 50.00% (2/4) after 1 course of treatment; ORR was 75.00% (3/4). Among 24 patients, renal involvement was found in 17 patients at the initial diagnosis. After 1 course of daratumumab-based chemotherapy regimen, ORR of 7 cases with evaluable efficacy was 85.71% (6/7), among which 42.86% (3/7) patients with renal involvement had an assessed renal response of very good partial remission (VGPR) or above. At the initial diagnosis, 19 cases had cardiac involvement; ORR of 14 cases with evaluable efficacy was 85.71% (12/14), among which 42.86% (6/14) patients had cardiac response to VGPR or above. After daratumumab-based chemotherapy regimen, the main adverse reactions were infusion-related adverse reactions, myelosuppression and infection, all of which were tolerated by the patients. The median follow-up time of 24 patients was 7.0 months (0.5- 16.5 months), the median progression-free survival time was 7.0 months (0.5-16.5 months) and the median overall survival time was 7.0 months (0.5-35.0 months).Conclusions:Daratumumab-based chemotherapy regimen has good efficacy and safety in the treatment of systemic light chain amyloidosis.
