Non-suicidal self-injury behavior and suicidal ideation are important risk factors for suicide attempts in patients with depression.At present,studies have found that there are obvious differences in electroencephalogram(EEG)characteristics between these two.Resting-state EEG analysis reveals that the absolute power of Gamma in specific electrode points is significantly increased in patients with depression accompanied by suicidal ideation.The Beta and Gamma activities of those with non-suicidal self-injury behavior changed.EEG microstate research shows that there are differences in microstates between those with non-suicidal self-injury behavior and those with suicidal ideation.Among them,short segments of microstate sequences have certain potential.In event-related potentials,these two show specific characteristics in components such as P3 wave and N2 wave.The amplitude of N2 wave in patients with depression accompanied by non-suicidal self-injury behavior is lower.Although there are few machine learning-related studies on EEG technology,it has shown certain application prospects.Therefore,this article will summarize the progress of EEG research related to the two,aiming to provide a basis for early prediction of suicide in depression.

Objective:To examine the survival and influential factors of an integrated approach of novel agents, autologous hematopoietic stem cell (auto-HSCT) , and maintenance therapy in patients with multiple myeloma (MM) patients from a single center over the past 15 years.Methods:In our center, 300 MM patients who received an integrated strategy of new agents, auto-HSCT, and maintenance therapy over 15 years were retrospectively and prospectively analyzed.Results:The complete remission rates (CR) and ≥very good partial remission rates (VGPR) following induction therapy, transplantation, and maintenance therapy were respectively 35.3% and 55.2% , 72.4% and 80.0% , 89.2% , and 93.4% . When compared to patients receiving double-drug induction, the ≥VGPR and ORR of patients receiving triple-drug induction were improved. No difference existed in CR, ≥VGPR, and ORR between the PAD (bortezomib + liposome doxorubicin+ dexamethasone) and RAD (lenalidomide + liposome doxorubicin + dexamethasone) regimens, but the benefits speed differed. The negative rate of flow minimal residual disease following induction, transplantation, and maintenance was 18.8% (54 cases) , 41.4% (109 cases) , and 58.7% (142 cases) , respectively. The median time to progress (TTP) was 78.7 months and the median overall survival (OS) was 109 months. The median TTP for RISS-Ⅰ-Ⅲ patients were 111.8 months, 77.4 months, and 30.6 months, and the median OS was 118.8 months, 91.4 months, and 48.5 months, respectively. At various points during treatment, the TTP and OS of patients obtaining CR and MRD negative were longer than those of patients who did not obtain CR and MRD negative. TTP was noticeably shorter in high-risk cytogenetic patients compared to standard-risk patients even when CR was acquired during induction. There was no difference in TTP between patients with high-risk cytogenetics and those with standard-risk cytogenetics if MRD negative was acquired during induction. According to a multivariate analysis, the R-ISS stage was a poor predictor of TTP and OS at various treatment intervals. Therapeutic effectiveness was a newly independent prognostic factor following treatment.Conclusion:A median survival of almost 10 years is possible for MM patients who receive an integrated strategy of induction regimens followed by auto-HSCT and maintenance therapy, which significantly improves prognosis. However, this approach did not significantly benefit high-risk cytogenetic MM patients.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of house dust mite (HDM) allergen subcutaneous specific immunotherapy (SCIT) in patients with allergic rhinitis (AR) with single dust mite allergy and multiple allergen allergy.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted. A total of 372 patients with allergic rhinitis induced by house dust mite were diagnosed in the allergy clinic of General Hospital of North Theater Command from January 2013 to January 2018.They were treated with house dust mite allergen preparation for standardized SCIT for 3 years or more, and had complete follow-up data. The age ranged from 5 to 55 years, the median age was 13 years, and the average age was (19.4±14.7) years; 216 males and 156 females. According to their age, they were divided into the older group (age >14 years) and younger group (age ≤ 14 years). According to the number of allergens, they were divided into single group (only HDM group allergic to house dust mites) and multi recombination (including 2 or more allergens including house dust mites). The multi recombination was further divided into HDM+1 group, HDM+2 group, HDM+3 group, HDM+4 and above group. Before treatment (T0), 1 year (T1) and 3 years (T2) after SCIT treatment, the patients in each group established files, analyzed and compared the average total nasal symptoms score (TNSS), total non nasal symptoms score (TNNSS), visual analogue scale (VAS), total medicine score (TMS) and rhinoconjunctivitis quality of life questionnaire (RQLQ), and evaluated the clinical efficacy of the treatment and the comparison of various scores in the efficacy of SCIT with different allergens and ages. Record the occurrence of local and systemic adverse reactions of all patients during treatment, and evaluate the safety of SCIT. All scores are measurement data that do not conform to normal distribution. Mann-Whitney U and Kruskai-Wallis test of independent samples are used for inter group comparison, and Bonferroni correction is used for further pairwise comparison; Chi square test and continuity correction method were used for the comparison between count data groups such as the incidence of adverse reactions and the effective rate of TNSS, and a-division method was used for further pairwise comparison. Results:After SCIT treatment, the scores of TNSS, TNNSS, TMS, VAS and RQLQ in T1 and T2 were significantly lower than those in T0, and the scores in T2 were significantly lower than those in T1 ( Z=-11.168, -4.786, -6.639, -13.012, -10.652 in T0 vs T1; Z=-13.527, -8.746, -13.397, -14.477, -11.833 in T0 vs T2; Z=-4.721, -4.607, -10.020, -7.180, -5.721 in T1 vs T2; P<0.05). In T1 and T2, compared with the older group, the scores of TNSS, TNNSS, TMS, VAS and RQLQ in younger group were lower, and the differences of various indexes were statistically significant(the median scores of T1: Myounger=3.0, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0, 2.6, Molder=5.0, 2.0, 3.0, 5.0, 3.2; the median scores of T2: Myounger=3.0, 1.0, 0, 2.0, 1.3, Molder=4.0, 1.0, 1.5, 3.0, 2.3; ZT1=-4.525, -5.830, -4.061, -3.608, -2.785; ZT2=-3.847, -4.055, -2.820, -2.998, -3.418; P<0.05). In T1 and T2, the scores of TNSS, VAS and RQLQ in a single group after SCIT treatment were lower than those in multiple recombination(the median scores of T1: Msingle=4.0, 4.0, 2.6, Mmultiple=5.0, 5.0, 3.2; the median scores of T2: Msingle=3.0, 2.0, 1.4, Mmultiple=4.0, 3.0, 2.1), and the difference was statistically significant ( ZT1=-3.002, -2.092, -1.977; ZT2=-3.354, -2.469, -2.116; P<0.05). There was no significant difference in TMS (the median score during T1 period: Msingle=2.0, Mmultiple=3.0, ZT1=-1.130; the median score during T2 period: Msingle=1.0, Mmultiple=1.0, ZT2=-1.544; P>0.05). Further comparison within the group showed that there was no significant difference in the improvement rate of TNSS during T2 period among HDM group, HDM+1 group, HDM+2 group and HDM+3 group (HDM vs HDM+1 group χ 2=0.277, HDM vs HDM+2 group χ 2=0.78, HDM vs HDM+3 group χ 2=0.075, HDM+1 vs HDM+2 group χ 2=0.057, HDM+1 vs HDM+3 group χ 2=0.019, HDM+2 vs HDM+3 group χ 2=0.003; P>0.005), the improvement rates were 92.5%, 90.3%, 89.1% and 89.5%. Respectively in HDM group,HDM+1 group, HDM+2 group, HDM+3 group, compared with HDM+4 and above group, the difference was statistically significant (χ 2=26.144, 13.254, 15.144, 8.808; P<0.005). The improvement rate of TNSS in HDM+4 and above group was 60.9%. 122 patients had local adverse reactions during the treatment of SCIT, accounting for 32.8%. The local adverse reactions were 759 injections (15 336 injections in total), accounting for 4.95%. Most of them were swelling, dizziness, induration and pruritus at the injection site, which could be relieved by oral antihistamines or within 2 hours. There were 2 cases of local urticaria, once for each case. The symptoms were relieved within 1 week after oral antihistamine. No serious systemic adverse reactions occurred. Conclusion:Standardized SCIT may be a safe and effective treatment for AR patients, and the type of allergen may be one of the important factors affecting the efficacy of SCIT. The efficacy of SCIT was significant in AR patients with three or less allergens other than house dust mite.

Objective:
To study the efficacy, safety and long-term outcomes of integrated strategy of bortezomib-based induction regimens followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell (ASCT) and maintenance therapy in Chinese multiple myeloma (MM) patients.
Methods:
200 MM patients receiving integrated strategy of bortezomib--based induction regimens followed by ASCT and maintenance therapy were retrospectively and prospectively analyzed from December 1. 2006 to April 30. 2018.
Results:
The complete remission rates (CR) and better than very good partial remission rates (VGPR) after induction therapy, transplantation and maintenance therapy were respectively 31% and 75.5%, 51.8% and 87.7%,73.6% and 93.4%. There was no difference between 4 cycles and more than 5 cycles induction chemotherapy. The negative rate of MRD detection by flow cytometry was 17.6% and 38.2% respectively after induction and 3 months after transplantation. The negative rate of MRD gradually increased during the maintenance therapy. The success rate of high dose CTX combined with G-CSF mobilization was 95.5% and transplantation related mortality (TRM) was zero. The median time to progress (TTP) was 75.3 months and the median overall survival (OS) was 99.5 months. TTP of patients obtaining CR and negative MRD after induction were longer that those of no CR and positive MRD. TTP and OS of patients receiving triple-drug induction and ASCT in early stage were longer than those of double-drug induction and ASCT in late stage. LDH≥240 U/L, high risk cytogenetics, ISS II+III stage and HBsAg positive were prognostic factors at diagnosis. However, only MRD and high risk cytogenetics were independent prognostic factors after transplantation and maintenance therapy. The clinical characteristics of patients of TTP ≥6 years were listed below: light-chain type M protein, ISS I stage, normal level of hemoglobin and platelet, normal LDH, HBsAg negative, chromosome 17p-negative, good response and sustained good response.
Conclusions
Integrated strategy of bortezomib-based induction regimens followed by ASCT and maintenance therapy can significantly improve the short-term and long-term efficacy. The prognostic factors of TTP in different disease stages were different. Response to treatment, especially MRD, played a more important role in prognostic factors.
