Objective:To analyze the expression of MCP-1 and CCR2 in newly diagnosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL),and to evaluate their correlation with clinicopathological features and prognosis.Methods:A total of 141 patients with DLBCL diagnosed and treated in the Department of Hematology,the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College from January 2017 to May 2022 were retrospectively collected.The clinical characteristics,pathological data and prognostic factors of the patients were collected.Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression of MCP-1 and CCR2 in the tissues of newly treated DLBCL patients,and to analyze the relationship between MCP-1 and clinical characteristics,prognosis and survival of patients.Results:The expression of MCP-1 and CCR2 were correlated with Ann Arbor stage,IPI score,lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),Ki-67 index and therapeutic effect.There were no significant correlation between the expression of MCP-1 or CCR2 and other clinical histopathological parameters such as gender,age,β2-microglobulin,BCL-2,BCL-6,Hans classification,initial location,B symptoms,bone marrow involvement.There was a statistical difference in OS and PFS between the MCP-1 or CCR2 positive group and the negative group,which was associated to poor prognosis.Univariate Cox regression analysis showed that β2-microglobulin,Ki-67 index,IPI score,MCP-1,CCR2 expression levels and disease remission affected the PFS and OS of DLBCL patients(P＜0.05).Gender,age,LDH,BCL-2,BCL-6,Hans classification,primary tumor site,B symptoms,bone marrow involvement,Ann Arbor stage had no effect on PFS and OS(P＞0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that β2-microglobulin,Ki-67 index,IPI score,MCP-1,CCR2 expression levels and disease remission were independent influencing factors of patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion:The expression rate of MCP-1 or CCR2 in newly treated DLBCL is high,and it is correlated with the clinical features of poor prognosis such as stage and LDH of DLBCL patients,which is a poor prognostic factor affecting PFS and OS.

Objective:To investigate the expression level of urothelial carcinoembryonic antigen 1(lncRNA UCA1)in the bone marrow of acute myeloid leukemia(AML)patients,and to explore the clinical significance of lncRNA UCA1 expression level in AML patients.Methods:Bone marrow samples of 50 AML patients were collected as experimental group,and bone marrow samples of 20 iron deficiency anemia(IDA)patients were collected as control group.The relevant clinicopathological characteristics of AML patients were collected.Real-time quantitative PCR(qRT-PCR)was used to detect the expression level of lncRNA UCA1 in the experimental and control groups,and the relationships between lncRNA UCA1 expression and clinical pathological characteristics and prognosis in AML patients were analyzed.Kaplan-Meier curves were used to analyze the effect of lncRNA UCA1 on the overall survival(OS)of AML patients;And Cox regression model was used to analyze the factors affecting the prognosis of AML patients.Results:Compared with the control group,the expression level of lncRNA UCA1 was significantly elevated in patients with AML(P＜0.001);The proportion of patients with hemoglobin lower than 90 g/L in lncRNA UCA1 high expression group was significantly higher than that in lncRNA UCA1 low expression group(P=0.004);The expression level of lncRNA UCA1 was higher in M1,M2,and M4 subtypes,while it was lower in M0 and M5 subtypes,and the difference was statistically significant(P=0.009).There were no significant difference in sex,age,white blood cell(WBC)count,platelet(PLT)count,bone marrow blasts,chemotherapy regimen and efficacy,karyotype,gene mutation,and prognostic risk stratification between patients in UCA1 high expression group and those in UCA1 low expression group(all P＞0.05).The OS of patients with high expression of lncRNA UCA1 was significantly shorter than that of patients with low expression of lncRNA UCA1(P=0.0229).Conclusion:The expression level of lncRNA UCA1 is significantly upregulated in AML patients.High expression of lncRNA UCA1 is associated with poor clinicopathological features and poor prognosis.Therefore,lncRNA UCA1 can be used as a prognostic indicator and a potential therapeutic target for AML patients.

Objective:To explore the application value of reticulocyte hemoglobin equivalent(Ret-He)for diagnosing latent iron deficiency in female plateletpheresis donors.Methods:A total of 230 female plateletpheresis donors in Fujian Blood Center from January to February 2022 were selected as the research group and divided into three groups:normal group,iron depletion(ID)group and iron deficient erythropoiesis(IDE)group,according to the severity of iron deficiency.The level of hemoglobin(HGB),mean corpuscular volume(MCV),mean corpuscular hemoglobin(MCH),coefficient of variation of red cell distribution width(RDW-CV)and Ret-He were measured by using the Sysmex XN automated hematology analyzer.Chemiluminescence immunoassay was used to detect iron biochemical indexes.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis was performed to evaluate the diagnosic value of relevant indicators in female blood donors with latent iron deficiency.Results:Ret-He in ID group was 32.55(31.15,33.10)pg,which was significantly lower than that in the normal group[33.80(32.73,34.70)pg](P＜0.05),and significantly higher than that in IDE group[30.40(28.70,31.50)pg](P＜0.05).ROC analysis in diagnosis of IDE demonstrated that the area under the curves(AUCs)of HGB,MCV,MCH,RDW-CV and Ret-He were 0.892,0.843,0.909,0.890,0.931,respectively.When the critical value of Ret-He was 32.05 pg,its sensitivity and specificity were 85.90％and 92.60％,respectively.However,all red blood cell parameters had poor diagnostic value for ID.Conclusion:Ret-He is a perfect predictor for latent iron deficiency in female blood donors.Detection of Ret-He can advance the diagnosis of iron deficiency in female blood donors to the IDE stage.

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT)is one of the main treatment methods for hematological malignancies.With the continuous improvement and popularization of transplantation technology,it has brought hope for prolonging the lives and improving the survival rate of patients with hematological malignancies. However,postoperative invasive fungal infection (IFI)is the most common infectious complication and the main cause of death,with difficult early diagnosis and extremely high mortality.This paper summarizes the latest research progress on the pathogenic types,diagnostic methods,high-risk factors and treatment regimen of Candida,Aspergillus and Mucor associated with postoperative IFI,which is expected to provide references for improving the early diagnosis rate and treatment effectiveness of postoperative IFI.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD)in twin preterm infants with a gestational age of<34 weeks,and to provide a basis for early identification of BPD in twin preterm infants in clinical practice.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for the twin preterm infants with a gestational age of<34 weeks who were admitted to 22 hospitals nationwide from January 2018 to December 2020.According to their conditions,they were divided into group A(both twins had BPD),group B(only one twin had BPD),and group C(neither twin had BPD).The risk factors for BPD in twin preterm infants were analyzed.Further analysis was conducted on group B to investigate the postnatal risk factors for BPD within twins.Results A total of 904 pairs of twins with a gestational age of<34 weeks were included in this study.The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that compared with group C,birth weight discordance of>25%between the twins was an independent risk factor for BPD in one of the twins(OR=3.370,95%CI:1.500-7.568,P<0.05),and high gestational age at birth was a protective factor against BPD(P<0.05).The conditional logistic regression analysis of group B showed that small-for-gestational-age(SGA)birth was an independent risk factor for BPD in individual twins(OR=5.017,95%CI:1.040-24.190,P<0.05).Conclusions The development of BPD in twin preterm infants is associated with gestational age,birth weight discordance between the twins,and SGA birth.
