Objective:To retrospectively analyze the treatment status of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) in newly diagnosed patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in China.Methods:Data of chronic phase (CP) and accelerated phase (AP) CML patients diagnosed from January 2006 to December 2022 from 77 centers, ≥18 years old, and receiving initial imatinib, nilotinib, dasatinib or flumatinib-therapy within 6 months after diagnosis in China with complete data were retrospectively interrogated. The choice of initial TKI, current TKI medications, treatment switch and reasons, treatment responses and outcomes as well as the variables associated with them were analyzed.Results:6 893 patients in CP ( n=6 453, 93.6%) or AP ( n=440, 6.4%) receiving initial imatinib ( n=4 906, 71.2%), nilotinib ( n=1 157, 16.8%), dasatinib ( n=298, 4.3%) or flumatinib ( n=532, 7.2%) -therapy. With the median follow-up of 43 ( IQR 22-75) months, 1 581 (22.9%) patients switched TKI due to resistance ( n=1 055, 15.3%), intolerance ( n=248, 3.6%), pursuit of better efficacy ( n=168, 2.4%), economic or other reasons ( n=110, 1.6%). The frequency of switching TKI in AP patients was significantly-higher than that in CP patients (44.1% vs 21.5%, P<0.001), and more AP patients switched TKI due to resistance than CP patients (75.3% vs 66.1%, P=0.011). Multi-variable analyses showed that male, lower HGB concentration and ELTS intermediate/high-risk cohort were associated with lower cytogenetic and molecular responses rate and poor outcomes in CP patients; higher WBC count and initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher response rates; Ph + ACA at diagnosis, poor PFS. However, Sokal intermediate/high-risk cohort was only significantly-associated with lower CCyR and MMR rates and the poor PFS. Lower HGB concentration and larger spleen size were significantly-associated with the lower cytogenetic and molecular response rates in AP patients; initial the second-generation TKI treatment, the higher treatment response rates; lower PLT count, higher blasts and Ph + ACA, poorer TFS; Ph + ACA, poorer OS. Conclusion:At present, the vast majority of newly-diagnosed CML-CP or AP patients could benefit from TKI treatment in the long term with the good treatment responses and survival outcomes.

Objective:To explore the mediating roles of family resilience and perceived social support between fear of progression and quality of life in patients with adult pulmonary hypertension, so as to provide guidance for grassroots medical staff to deeply understand and improve the long-term quality of life of adult pulmonary hypertension patients.Methods:Using a convenience sampling method, 219 adult pulmonary hypertension patients who attended Qilu Hospital, Shandong University from July 2021 to February 2022 were selected for a cross-sectional study using the World Health Organization Quality of Life Questionnaire Abbreviated Version (WHOQOL-BREF), Perceived Social Support Scale (PSSS), Shortened Chinese version of the Family Resilience Assessment Scale (FRAS-C) and Chinese version of Fear of Progression Questionnaire-Short Form (FoP-Q-SF) for investigation. A structural equation model was established to evaluate the mediating effect of family resilience and perceived social support on fear of progression and quality of life.Results:The scores of WHOQOL-BREF, PSSS, FRAS-C, and FoP-Q-SF were (45.85 ± 10.22), 66(56, 75), 94(89, 97) and 39(32, 46) points in adult pulmonary hypertension patients. The total scores of WHOQOL-BREF were negatively correlated with FoP-Q-SF ( r = -0.63, P<0.01), and positively correlated with FRAS-C and PSSS ( r=0.54, 0.46, both P<0.01). Family resilience played a partial mediating role between fear of progression and quality of life, accounting for 13.43% of the total effect. Family resilience and perceived social support played a chain mediating role between fear of progression and quality of life, accounting for 2.71% of the total effect. Conclusions:Family resilience-perceived social support play mediating roles between fear of progression and quality of life, healthcare workers can alleviate fear of progression and improve quality of life by promoting the levels of family resilience and perceived social support of adult pulmonary hypertension parents.

Objective:To evaluate nutritional status in elderly patients with chronic heart failure and to investigate its association with unplanned readmission.Methods:From July 2020 to August 2021, 220 elderly patients hospitalized for chronic heart failure in Qilu Hospital of Shandong University were enrolled in a prospective cohort study. Basic information, laboratory tests and other data of the patients were collected. Nutritional status of the patients was assessed by geriatric nutritional risk index and the patients were divided into groups. Data were analyzed by R4.1.1 and SPSS26.0, survival curves were drawn by Kaplan-Meier method, and the relationship between nutritional status and unplanned readmission in elderly patients with chronic heart failure was analyzed by univariate and multivariate Cox regression.Results:Among 220 elderly patients with chronic heart failure, 59.5%(131/220) were in normal nutrition. There were 40.5%(89/220) in the malnutrition, including 26.8%(59/220) in the mild malnutrition and 13.6%(30/220) in the moderate and severe malnutrition. During the follow-up period of 3 months, 25.9% (57/220) had unplanned readmission. Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed that the incidence of unplanned readmissions was higher in the moderate and severe malnutrition than in the normal and mild malnutrition, and the difference among them was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that moderate and severe malnutrition was an independent predictor of unplanned readmission in elderly patients with chronic heart failure ( HR=2.064, 95% CI 1.029-4.138, P<0.05). Conclusions:The prevalence of malnutrition in elderly patients with chronic heart failure is high. Moderate and severe malnutrition is an independent predictor of unplanned readmission in elderly patients with chronic heart failure. The geriatric nutritional risk index is an effective screening tool and can provide a reference for clinical evaluation of nutritional risk in patients.

The inundation of Cordyceps sinensis counterfeits in the market makes it difficult to identify. In this study, 21 batches of wild C. sinensis from 3 different regions, 30 batches of naturally cultured C. sinensis and 4 kinds of counterfeits extracted by methanol and water were analyzed using NMR technology. 9 characteristic peaks were defined as quantitative criterion after comparison, and NMR fingerprints of C. sinensis were established. According to the result it is highly similar between naturally cultured C. sinensis and wild ones by comparing their NMR fingerprints. However, NMR spectra of four kinds of adulterants showed differences with C. sinensis. The result also showed that NMR fingerprint of C. sinensis are highly characteristic and specific. The NMR characteristic fingerprint of wild C. sinensis was consistent with the naturally cultured C. sinensis, and it indicated that the chemical constituents of wild C. sinensis and naturally cultured C. sinensis are nearly the same.
