Objective:To investigate the effect of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) bridging to chimeric antigen receptor T cell (CAR-T) immunotherapy for follicular lymphoma (FL) transformed to B-lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (B-LBL).Methods:The diagnosis and treatment of 1 patient with FL transformed to B-LBL admitted to the First Hospital of Soochow University in August 2020 were retrospectively analyzed and the literature was reviewed.Results:The male patient was 65 years old, and was diagnosed as FL (stage Ⅳ group A, FL international prognostic index -1 score 3 points, high-risk group) in August 2020. And then he was given 6 courses of RB (rituximab combined with bendamustine) regimen, with complete remission (CR) at mid-term and end-stage PET-CT, followed by regular maintenance therapy with rituximab every 2 months, and disease progressed after 4 courses of maintenance therapy. According to the results of histopathology and bone marrow aspiration in December 2021, he was diagnosed B-LBL involving the bone marrow. Partial remission was achieved after induction therapy with zanubnulindb combined with hyper CVAD (cyclophosphamide + doxorubicin + vindesine + dexamethasone) regimen, followed by auto-HSCT bridging to CAR-T treatment targeting CD19 and CD22, which proceeded smoothly with cytokine release syndrome grade 0, immune effector cell-associated neurotoxicity syndrome grade 0. The patient successfully underwent hematopoietic reconstruction and orally taken ibrutinib after discharge. PET-CT indicated CR 2 months after transplantation and he was still in disease-free survival state.Conclusions:The prognosis of FL transformed to B-LBL is poor, and auto-HSCT bridging to CAR-T can improve the prognosis and prolong the survival time of patients who cannot undergo allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Objective:This study aimed to compare the efficacy and safety of cladribine, smustine, etoposide, cyclophosphamide, and cytarabine (C+SCAV) and smustine, etoposide, cytarabine, and melphalan (SEAM) conditioning regimens in autologous stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) for non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma (NHL) .Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 61 NHL patients who received auto-HSCT in the Department of Hematology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Suzhou University, from March 2018 to May 2021. The C + SCAV group and SEAM group had 19 and 42 patients, respectively.Results:① Among the 61 patients with NHL, 37 were male and 24 were female. The median age was 48 (21-66) years old. There were 19 cases in the C+SCAV group and 42 cases in the SEAM group. There was no significant difference in the baseline characteristics between the two groups ( P>0.05) . ② The median time to neutrophil and platelet engraftment in the C+SCAV cohort were 10 (8-15) days and 13 (9-22) days, respectively, which does not differ from the SEAM group ( P=0.103, P=0.403) . ③ No differences existed between the two groups in terms of survival. The 1-year progression-free survival (PFS) was (76.5±10.3) % for patients receiving C+SCAV and (78.4±6.8) % for those who received SEAM ( P=0.841) . The 1-year overall survival was 100.0% for the C+SCAV group and 95.2±3.3% for the SEAM group ( P=0.339) . ④The 1-year PFS of patients with complete remission in the C+SCAV group was similar to those who in the SEAM group [ (92.3±7.4) % vs (82.5±7.2) %, P=0.406]. ⑤ The incidence of non-hematological serious adverse events (≥ grade 3) in the C+SCAV group and SEAM group were 10.5% (2/19) and 40.5% (17/42) ( P=0.013) , the incidence of severe mucositis was 5.3% (1/19) and 31.0% (13/42) ( P=0.015) , and the incidence of severe infection (≥ grade 3) was 10.5% (2/19) and 19.0% (8/42) ( P=0.389) , respectively. Conclusion:C + SCAV conditioning regimen appeared to be no different from the SEAM regimen in terms of survival. It can lower the incidence of SAE and does not increase the risk of severe infection. As a result, it can be used as an alternative conditioning regimen for lymphoma patients undergoing auto-HSCT.

Guided by the development of new medical science proposed by Ministry of Education and the "Education and Training Plan for Excellent Doctors 2.0", shifted from treatment-oriented to whole life-health cycle, we have explored curriculum ideological and political education in metabolic-related curriculum chain. Firstly, we constructed a core teaching team and had the training of curriculum ideological and political education. The top-level design was made with the integration of moral education into medical education. Secondly, the syllabus was comprehensively revised, containing the connotation of "morality education". The elements relevant to curriculum ideological and political education hidden behind professional courses were excavated. Finally, the mixed teaching mode of online combining with offline was carried out. Metabolism-related curriculum chain, focused on "metabolism, diabetes, obesity and patient education", formed a progressive link from basic medical science to practice to clinical, strengthening the "prevention, treatment and health care" based "one health" philosophy and giving full play to the implicit curriculum ideological and political education hidden behind professional courses. Our practice shows that the implementation of curriculum ideological and political education in metabolism-related curriculum has been accepted by students, and curriculum ideological and political education has been become part of professional courses. The "gene chimera" mode for curriculum ideological and political education incorporation into professional courses needs to be infiltrated imperceptibly, and the effect will be visualized in the future.

Objective:To analyze the clinical value of ultrasonic examination in the diagnosis of alcoholic liver disease.Methods:From April 2015 to December 2017, 68 patients with suspected alcoholic liver disease in the Mental Health Center of Yiwu were examined by ultrasound and liver function test.The diagnostic value of ultrasound examination was analyzed.Results:Liver function examination showed that 36 cases were diagnosed as alcoholic liver disease, 32 cases were diagnosed as fatty liver, 12 cases were misdiagnosed and 12 cases missed diagnosis.Ultrasound examination showed that 47 patients were diagnosed as alcoholic liver disease, 21 patients were diagnosed as fatty liver, 1 patient was misdiagnosed and 2 patients were missed diagnosis.The sensitivity, specificity and total accuracy of routine liver function examination in diagnosis of alcoholic liver disease were 62.50%(30/48), 70.00%(14/20), 64.71%(44/68), respectively.The sensitivity, specificity and total accuracy of ultrasound in diagnosis of alcoholic liver disease were 95.83%(46/48), 95.00%(19/20), 95.59%(65/68), respectively.The sensitivity, specificity and total accuracy of ultrasonic examination in diagnosis of alcoholic liver disease were significantly higher than those of routine liver function examination (χ 2=16.168, 4.329, 20.379, all P<0.05). Ultrasound examination showed that 35 cases were alcoholic fatty liver, 8 cases were alcoholic hepatitis and 4 cases were alcoholic cirrhosis.The coincidence rate of diagnosis was 97.92%(47/48). The Kappa test value was 0.895, which indicated that the consistency was good. Conclusion:Ultrasonic examination is effective and accurate in diagnosis of alcoholic liver disease, and it can be used to diagnose the type of disease.

Objective:
To understand the awareness of palliative care and its influencing factors in community residents in Hangzhou,so as to provide basis for the development of palliative care service.
Methods:
By convenient sampling method,the residents in the urban-rural junction of Xihu District were recruited. A self-designed questionnaire was used to investigate their awareness of palliative care. The logistic regression model was employed to analyze the influencing factors.
Results :
A total of 519 questionnaires were recovered,with a response rate of 97.92%. There were 227 males and 292 females,accounting for 43.74% and 56.26%,respectively. There were 43,218 and 258 residents with more,basic and little understanding about palliative care, accounting for 8.29%,42.00% and 49.71%. The residents learned about palliative care mainly through television and radio,with 245 cases accounting for 47.21%;and they thought that the main reason for low awareness of palliative care was a lack of related knowledge,with 396 cases accounting for 76.30%. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that 50-59 years old(OR = 0.467,95% CI:0.285-0.767),primary school education and below(OR = 2.248,95%CI:1.239-4.079)and experience of caring for dying patients(OR = 1.551,95% CI:1.094-2.199)were the influencing factors for the awareness of palliative care.
Conclusion
The residents in Hangzhou had relatively low awareness of palliative care,which were associated with age,education level and experience of caring for dying patients.
