Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) refers to the clonal expansion phenomenon of hematopoietic stem cells caused by gene mutations, which has been considered as a potential pathogenetic basis for various diseases. The latest research reveals a possible relationship between CHIP and lymphoma. This article summarizes and explores the role and mechanism of CHIP mediated by TET2 and DNMT3A in lymphoma, and reviews the treatment strategies targeting these genes and related inflammatory pathways, aiming to provide new ideas and methods for the treatment of lymphoma.

Objective:To investigate the ability of 18F-fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) PET/CT imaging to identify involved myocardium in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) compared with cardiac MRI. Methods:A prospective study was conducted on 50 patients (32 males, 18 females, age (43±13) years) with HCM confirmed by ultrasound or cardiac MRI in Beijing Chaoyang Hospital from July 2021 to January 2022. All patients underwent both cardiac 18F-FAPI PET/CT and MRI. The SUV max and maximum target-to-background ratio (TBR max) of the left ventricular myocardium were obtained using post-processing software. Regions with 18F-FAPI uptake not less than predefined thresholds (SUV max 40%, 50%, 60%) were defined as myocardium with positive uptake. The FAPI amount was defined as the product of TBR max and the extent of FAPI-positive uptake (FAPI%). Cardiac MRI post-processing software was used to measure the extent of left ventricular myocardial late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) (expressed as LGE%), native T 1 value, extracellular volume fraction (ECV), and myocardial deformation characteristics. Spearman rank correlation analysis was employed to assess the correlation between 18F-FAPI imaging parameters and cardiac MRI parameters, as well as the correlation between FAPI amount and the 5-year risk score for sudden cardiac death (SCD). Linear regression analysis was utilized to identify factors associated with FAPI amount. Results:When the threshold for 18F-FAPI-positive uptake in the left ventricular myocardium was set at 60%, the correlations between FAPI amount, FAPI%, and MRI parameters were optimal ( rs values: from -0.465 to 0.460, all P<0.05). Multivariate linear regression analysis revealed that HCM duration ( β=0.128, 95% CI: 0.022-0.233, P=0.008), serum N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) levels ( β=0.190, 95% CI: 0.099-0.280, P<0.001), and left ventricular ejection fraction ( β=-0.005, 95% CI: -0.011 to 0.000, P=0.041) were independent predictors of FAPI amount. FAPI amount was positively correlated with the 5-year SCD risk score across different thresholds (40%: rs=0.32, P=0.026; 50%: rs=0.29, P=0.039; 60%: rs=0.29, P=0.040). Conclusions:When the threshold for 18F-FAPI-positive uptake is set at 60%, 18F-FAPI PET/CT imaging can more effectively identify the involved myocardium in HCM. FAPI amount is correlated with the 5-year SCD risk score in patients with HCM.

Objective To investigate the effect of elastic pants on coagulation function and deep vein thrombosis by examining blood coagulation function and deep vein thrombosis in patients with liposuction in the thigh before and after operation.Methods 80 patients with liposuction were randomly divided into Ankle-length elastic pants(Ankle group,A group,n=40)and Knee-length elastic pants(Knee group,K group,n=40)from October 2021 to October 2022.After liposuction surgery,the two groups of patients used elastic bandage to initially compress and bind the thigh.According to the length of the patients'thigh,the patients in A group wore appropriate ankle-length elastic pants and the patients in K group wore appropriate knee-length elastic pants.The index were recorded including the popliteal vein flow rate,the common femoral vein flow rate,the instep temperature,the incidence of deep vein thrombosis(DVT),the incidence of intramuscular vein thrombosis of leg and the coagulation indexes(APTT,PT,Fib,D-dimer).Results Compared with pre-operation,the blood flow rate of popliteal vein and common femoral vein in A group was significantly faster,while the blood flow rate of popliteal vein in K group was significantly slower(P＜0.05).There was no significant change in APTT and PT in the two groups after operation(P＞0.05),but the Fib and D-Dimer increased significantly on the first day after operation,and then decreased gradually(P＜0.05).Compared with K group,the blood flow of popliteal vein and common femoral vein in A group was significantly faster at each time point after operation(P＜0.05).The Fib and D-Dimer of patients in A group were significantly lower than those in K group on the 1st,3rd and 7th day after operation(P＜0.05),and the blood coagulation index between the two groups returned to normal around the 14th day.There was no statistically significant difference in the instep temperature between groups and within groups(P＞0.05).No deep venous thrombosis was found in A group after surgery,while there were 3 cases of deep venous thrombosis without clinical symptoms in K group on the 3rd and 7th day,with no statistical difference(P＞0.05).After surgery,patients in A group and K group had intramuscular venous thrombosis of the leg on the 1st,3rd and 7th day after surgery,and there was statistically significant difference on the 3rd and 7th day between the two groups(P＜0.05).Conclusion Thigh liposuction can lead to deep vein thrombosis without obvious clinical symptoms and intramuscular vein thrombosis of leg.Ankle-length elastic pants are more conducive to blood circulation of patients'legs,improve blood hypercoagulability,and reduce the risk of deep vein thrombosis after operation.

Objective:Studying the effect of PRDX4 on esophageal squamous cell carcinoma cells(esophageal carcinoma,ESCC)proliferation and apoptosis as well as its potential mechanism.Methods:The University of Alabama at Birmingham cancer data analysis portal(UALCAN),gene expression profiling interactive analysis(GEPIA)and the Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)databases were used to predict PRDX4 expres-sion in ESCC and its relationship with pathological features and prognosis.The cancer and adjacent tissues of 60 patients with ESCC who un-derwent radical resection in the Affiliated Hospital of Weifang Medical College from August 2010 to August 2023 were selected as research samples.The expression level of PRDX4 in the patients was detected by immunohistochemistry(IHC).The extracted cancer and adjacent tis-sues were homogenized to analyze its mRNA expression.The expression levels of PRDX4 mRNA and related signaling proteins in ESCC cells were analyzed by real-time quantitative PCR and Western blot.Cell Counting Kit-8(CCK-8)assay and flow cytometry were used to analyze the effect of PRDX4 on cell proliferation and apoptosis.Finally,a subcutaneous tumor model in nude mice was constructed to validate the in vitro experimental results.Results:The data from the GEPIA and UALCAN showed that PRDX4 expression was abnormally increased and re-lated to the pathology stage,grade,and survival rate of patients.After knockdown and overexpression of PRDX4 in an ESCC cell line,the ex-pression of PRDX4,phos-phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase(p-PI3K),phos-protein kinase B(p-AKT),cyclinD1,and survivin protein decreased and increased,respectively;cell proliferation and apoptosis were positively regulated.Compared with the sh-NC group,tumor volume and weight in the sh-PRDX4 group were decreased.Conclusions:PRDX4 regulates the proliferation and apoptosis of ESCC cells by activating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.

Objective:To understand the real experiences of scientific research anxiety among nurses in tertiary hospitals, for references for improving the research capabilities of clinical nurses and formulating corresponding training and management strategies.Methods:From January to June 2023, this study adopted the phenomenological research method in qualitative research, and used the purposive sampling method to select 15 clinical nurses from two tertiary hospitals for semi-structured interviews. The seven-step analysis method was used to extract the theme of nurses′ experiences of scientific research anxiety.Results:A total of 337 minutes of interviews were conducted, with over 80 000 words transcribed. After analysis, four themes were formed, including the manifestations of clinical nurses′ research anxiety(imbalance between work and family life, negative emotions caused by anxiety, positive effects of moderate anxiety), individual reasons(research motivation and self doubt, challenges in time management and resource allocation), external reasons(fast iteration and updating of research methods, research pressure caused by career development, multidimensional support resources to overcome research anxiety), and adjustment strategies(nurses′ own internal drive and insensitivity, multidimensional support resources to overcome research anxiety).Conclusions:Most clinical nurses attached great importance to nursing research and were eager to receive more research support and assistance; The research anxiety of clinical nurses was influenced by multiple factors such as research motivation, time management, iterative updates of research methods, and research support systems. It was recommended that hospital managers actively support clinical nurses to participate in scientific research activities, establish a sound scientific research management system, in order to enhance nurses′ scientific research capabilities.
