Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of bendamustine combined with anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody in the first-line treatment of older patients with indolent B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-iNHL) .Methods:The clinical data of 159 patients with B-iNHL enrolled in 16 hospitals from Jiangsu Cooperative Lymphoma Group from December 1, 2019, to April 20, 2024, were analyzed for regimen efficacy and safety. Bendamustine plus rituximab (BR) and bendamustine plus obinutuzumab (BG) were administered to 139 (87.4% ) and 20 (12.6% ) patients, respectively.Results:Among the 159 patients, 101 (63.5% ) were male and 58 (36.5% ) were female, with a median age of 69 years (range: 60–84). Efficacy could be assessed in 138 (86.8% ) patients. The efficacy assessment demonstrated that the overall response rate was 92.0% with complete and partial remissions in 75 (54.3% ) and 52 (37.7% ) cases, respectively. With a median follow-up of 24 months (range: 4–64), the progression-free survival rate was (87.5 ± 3.0) % and the overall survival rate was (83.2 ± 3.3) %. Of the 27 patients who died, 6 (22.2% ) died due to disease progression. The mean applied dose of bendamustine per cycle was 73.0 (50.8–89.7) mg/m 2 per day, administered on days 1 and 2. Adverse events of grade 3 or higher were reported in 53 (33.3% ) patients, with infection (30 cases,18.9% ) and neutropenia (24 cases, 15.1% ) demonstrating the highest incidence. Conclusion:Bendamustine combined with anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody demonstrated good efficacy and is well-tolerated in the first-line treatment of elderly patients with B-iNHL.

Objective To rapidly evaluate the efficacy,safety,and cost-effectiveness of venetoclax(Ven)in non-M3 acute myeloid leukemia(AML),and to provide an evidence-based basis for rational clinical treatment.Methods PubMed,Cochrane Library,Embase,CNKI,WanFang Data databases,and relevant health technology assessment(HTA)websites were searched to collect relevant literature and reports on Ven treatment for non-M3 AML,with a search timeframe from the establishment of the database/website to November 1st,2024.Two researchers independently screened literature,extracted data,and assessed quality,and then qualitatively described and analyzed the results.Results A total of 11 pieces of literature were included,including 5 systematic reviews/Meta-analysis,4 pharmacoeconomic studies,and 2 HTA reports.In terms of efficacy,compared with the control group,non-M3 AML patients receiving Ven treatment had a higher clinical remission rate(P<0.05),a longer event-free survival(EFS)(P<0.05)and a similar or longer overall survival(OS)(P<0.05).Regarding safety,compared to Azacitidine(Aza)monotherapy,Ven+Aza resulted in a higher likelihood of febrile neutropenia in non-M3 AML patients(P<0.05).Non-M3 AML patients receiving Ven+low-dose cytarabine(LDAC)had a higher risk of developing thrombocytopenia compared with LDAC monotherapy(P<0.05).However,the early 30-day mortality rate was lower in the Ven+chemotherapy group than that in the chemotherapy alone group(P<0.05),presenting an acceptable security profile overall.In terms of cost-effectiveness,Ven was cost-effective in non-M3 AML patients compared with the control group.Conclusion Ven has manifested remarkable efficacy and acceptable security profile among patients with non-M3 AML,thus proving to be a medium to long-term cost-effective treatment modality.

Objective To investigate the effect of lateral wedge insoles (LWI) with different heights on lower limb biomechanical characteristics during single-leg landing in patients with chronic ankle in? stability (CAI). Methods Thirty CAI undergraduates (15 males and 15 females) were recruited. All participants were required to perform a single-leg landing task from a height of 30 cm. They first un? derwent the test with flat insoles (FI),followed by tests with 3 mm and 6 mm LWI in a randomized order. A Qualisys 3D motion capture system and Kistler force platform were used to synchronously col? lect data. Kinematic and kinetic data of the lower limb tri-joints (hip,knee and ankle) were ana? lyzed from the moment of ground contact to the body stabilization phase. Results(1) Kinematically,compared with the FI group,the 3 mm and 6 mm LWI groups showed greater hip and knee flexion angles (P<0.001),smaller hip adduction (P<0.05,P<0.01),ankle plantarflexion (P<0.05,P<0.001),and knee valgus angles (P<0.05,P<0.001) at the moment of ground contact. The 6 mm LWI group had larger hip/knee flexion angles (P<0.001) and smaller ankle plantarflexion angles (P<0.001) at contact than the 3 mm LWI group. Additionally,compared with the FI group,the 6 mm LWI group showed significantly smaller ankle eversion angles (P<0.05). The 6 mm LWI group showed larger peak knee flexion angle (P<0.05) and peak ankle eversion angle (P<0.01) than the FI group,while the 3 mm LWI group also had a greater peak ankle eversion angle (P<0.05) than the FI group. Meanwhile,the 3 mm and 6 mm LWI groups had a larger knee flexion-extension range of motion (ROM)(P<0.05,P<0.01) but smaller ankle flexion-extension ROM (P<0.001) than the FI group. The 6 mm LWI group showed a significantly greater hip adduction-abduction ROM (P<0.001,P<0.05) than the other groups,with a smaller ankle plantar flexion-extension ROM (P<0.05) than the 3 mm LWI group. (2) The peak vertical ground reaction force (peak vGRF) of the LWI groups was signifi? cantly lower than the FI group (P<0.01),with that of the 6 mm LWI group significantly lower than the 3 mm LWI group (P<0.001). Moreover,there were significantly greater peak hip flexion moment (P<0.01) and smaller peak ankle plantarflexion moment of the LWI groups than the FI group (P<0.001),with a smaller peak ankle plantarflexion moment of the 6 mm LWI group than the 3 mm LWI group (P<0.05). (3) Significantly greater subjective comfort was observed in the 6 mm LWI group than the FI group (P<0.01). Conclusion LWI can improve landing patterns in CAI patients,re? duce their ground reaction forces,and lower the risk of ankle sprain. The 6 mm LWI outperforms the 3 mm LWI in improving flexion angles of the lower limb tri-joints at ground contact,ankle flexion-ex? tension ROM,peak vGRF,and peak ankle plantarflexion moment during single-leg landing tasks. Therefore,LWI can be used as a wearable protective device during rehabilitation to prevent recurrent ankle sprains among such patients.

Objective:To summarize the clinicopathological features, evolving trends in treatment and surgical approaches, and survival outcomes of patients who underwent D2 radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer in Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital over the past 11 years with the goal of providing a reference for the clinical practice of gastric cancer in this region.Methods:A retrospective observational study was conducted to analyze the clinicopathological data of patients who underwent D2 radical gastrectomy for pathologically confirmed gastric malignancy at the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery, Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital from January, 2013 to December, 2023. Exclusion criteria consisted of: (1) residual gastric cancer or recurrent gastric cancer after surgery; (2) emergency gastric cancer resection due to bleeding, perforation, obstruction, or other causes; (3) comorbidity with other primary malignant tumors; (4) severe preoperative cardiopulmonary insufficiency or hepatic and renal insufficiency who cannot tolerate radical surgery; and (5) inconsistent main diagnosis information across the medical record system, pathological system, and gastric cancer-specific database. Patients were divided into three groups based on treatment methods: the surgery-only group, the perioperative chemotherapy group, and the adjuvant chemotherapy group. Endpoints included: (1) baseline patient characteristics; (2) trends in tumor location and pathological features; (3) evolution of treatment modalities; and (4) survival outcomes.Results:A total of 15,644 patients were included in the analysis, with 12,591 males and 3,053 females, the male-to-female gender ration was approximately 4∶1; the mean age was (61.2±9.5) years. The tumor sites were mainly concentrated in the esophagogastric junction (EGJ) (57.4%), followed by the antrum (25.9%). The incidence of EGJ cancer initially rose and then declined. However, gastric antrum tumors remained stable, and gastric body tumors showed a slow upward trend after 2020, accounting for 16.7%. In terms of pathological types, poorly differentiated carcinoma was the most prevalent, accounting for 55.9%, followed by moderately differentiated carcinoma (24.2%), mucinous adenocarcinoma (or signet ring cell carcinoma,14.1%), neuroendocrine carcinoma (4.8%), and well-differentiated carcinoma (0.9%). The proportion of poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma showed a significant upward trend overall as well, peaking at 65.6% in 2022 and decreasing to 57.5% in 2023. Mucinous adenocarcinoma (or signet ring cell carcinoma) exhibited fluctuations with a first increase followed by a decrease: it peaked at 17.3% in 2018, dropped sharply to 8.4% in 2022, and rose back to 13.8% in 2023. The proportions of well-differentiated adenocarcinoma, moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma, and neuroendocrine tumors remained stable year by year. In terms of pathological staging, the overall proportions of gastric cancer at Stage 0, Stage I, Stage II, Stage III, and Stage IVa were 0.5%, 17.3%, 25.1%, 54.9%, and 2.3%, respectively. For Stage III, its proportion was 74.6% in 2013, which decreased to 46.4% by 2023. Stages I and II gastric cancer showed an upward trend, with their proportions rising from 10.2% and 12.1% in 2013 to nearly 21.0% and 29.6% in 2023, respectively. Between 2013 and 2023, the proportion of patients who received surgery alone continued to decrease, with this proportion dropping to 34.7% in 2023. In contrast, the number of patients who received adjuvant chemotherapy increased year by year, reaching 54.2% in 2023. Since 2017, the application of perioperative chemotherapy has gradually increased, rising to 11.1% in 2023. Immunotherapy showed an almost synchronous growth trend with perioperative chemotherapy. However, targeted therapy exhibited a downward trend after a period of growth. There were 10,704 cases of open surgery (68.4%), 4,744 cases of laparoscopic surgery (30.3%), and 193 cases of transthoracic surgery (1.2%). Pathological margin positivity was observed in 443 cases (2.8%), and the volume of gastric cancer surgeries gradually increased, peaked in 2021 before subsequently decreasing gradually. However, the volume of laparoscopic surgeries did not decrease; instead, it showed an upward trend. The main resection method for EGJ tumors was total gastrectomy, accounting for 78.5% of the total, followed by proximal gastrectomy, which accounted for 21.5%. After total gastrectomy, esophagojejunal Roux-en-Y anastomosis was the primary anastomotic method, and for proximal gastrectomy, the main anastomotic method was esophagogastric anastomosis, which accounted for 68.0% of the total. For distal gastrectomy, Billroth II anastomosis was the most common anastomotic technique, accounting for 92.7% of these procedures. The overall incidence of postoperative complications was 14.5% (2,264/15,644), among which the incidence of severe complications (grades III-IV) was 4.5% (706/15,644). The entire cohort was followed up with for (47.1±36.8) months, and the 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year overall survival rates were 86.4%, 65.9%, and 58.1%, respectively. For patients with stage 0, I, II, III, and IV gastric adenocarcinoma, the 1-year overall survival rates were 95.7%, 98.0%, 89.4%, 81.0%, and 49.1%, respectively; the 3-year overall survival rates were 92.1%, 94.6%, 81.9%, 51.4%, and 14.7%, respectively; and the 5-year overall survival rates were 89.4%, 91.7%, 75.1%, 41.5%, and 10.0%, respectively. For patients with stage I, II, III, and IV gastric neuroendocrine carcinoma, the 1-year overall survival rates were 96.7%, 91.1%, 73.8%, and 52.6%, respectively; the 3-year overall survival rates were 87.2%, 69.6%, 46.1%, and 32.1%, respectively; and the 5-year overall survival rates were 87.2%, 62.2%, 36.7%, and 32.1%, respectively.Conclusions:Gastric cancer in Shanxi Province is characterized by a male predominance, a high prevalence of tumors at the esophagogastric junction, a large proportion of poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma, and presentation at advanced stages (predominantly Stage III). The detection rate of early gastric cancer has been increasing year by year, the volume of laparoscopic surgeries has been on the rise annually, and the treatment model has shifted from single surgery to comprehensive treatment.

In clinical practice, red blood cell infusion needs to be based on the patient′s hemoglobin level. However, different guidelines recommend different thresholds for red blood cell infusion and the timing of blood transfusion initiation is still controversial due to the presence of these different thresholds. Meanwhile, the use of allogeneic blood products carries a certain risk of transfusion-related infections or organ damage. Therefore, initiating red blood cell infusion requires more evidence. This review discusses some new methods, namely central venous oxygen saturation, arterial venous oxygen difference, near-infrared spectroscopy, and perioperative transfusion trigger score. It aims to help evaluate blood transfusion trigger and provide reference for doctors when making transfusion decisions.
