Hairy cell leukemia(HCL) is a rare malignant hematological tumor. This article presents the diagnosis and treatment of a patient with recurrent HCL. This patient, a 51-year-old female, was diagnosed with HCL in June 2013 and subsequently received monotherapy with cladribine. Post-treatment evaluation indicated a partial remission. In November 2023, she experienced chest tightness and shortness of breath with ultrasound revealing a right-sided pleural effusion. A follow-up examination in February 2024 confirmed the relapse of HCL. She was then treated with a combination of vemurafenib and rituximab, which resulted in a rapid complete remission without minimal residual disease. This case provides valuable insights into the management of recurrent HCL.

In fixed prosthodontics, clear exposure of the preparation margin is the prerequisite for obtaining accurate digital impressions and improving the marginal fit of restorations. To resolve the issues associated with the cord retraction technique, such as pain, acute injury, and prolonged procedural time, this study proposes a new technology for intraoral digital impression taking with pneumatic gingival retraction. The new scanning head blows a high-speed airflow that instantaneously separates the free gingiva, locally exposing the subgingival preparation margin. Combined with the farthest point preservation stitching algorithm based on the distance from the normal vector and high-speed laser scanning photography, it achieves global preparation edge data and gingival reconstruction, realizing painless, non-invasive, and efficient precise acquisition of the preparation margin. Using this new technique, a patient with a full porcelain crown restoration on a posterior tooth was treated. The digital impression revealed a clear margin of the preparation, and the crown made from this data has a good marginal fit.

Objective:To evaluate the development and application of gastrointestinal endoscopy technology in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (BTH) region from 2016 to 2020, and the impact of the corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) epidemic on gastrointestinal endoscopy screening and lesion detection rate of medical institutions.Methods:Data of gastroscopy and colonoscopy cases from 26 cooperative institutions in BTH Region Gastrointestinal Endoscopy Medical Association from January 2016 to December 2020 were collected by questionnaire. The number of gastrointestinal endoscopy, the detection of main lesions (including upper gastrointestinal malignant tumors, early gastric cancer and colon cancer), and the number of endoscopic treatment were retrospectively analyzed by year.Results:From 2016 to 2019, the number of gastroscopy and colonoscopy showed a yearly increasing trend with an annual growth rate of over 10%. Compared with 2019, the number of gastroscopy and colonoscopy decreased by 10.86% and 8.29%, respectively, in 2020 due to the impact of the epidemic. The annual detection rates of upper gastrointestinal malignant tumors, early gastric cancer and colon cancer were on a rise, from 7.22%, 1.49% and 8.98% in 2016 to 9.87%, 2.71% and 12.04% in 2020, respectively. The number of gastroscopic mucosal resection, submucosal dissection and colonoscopic endoscopic submucosal dissection increased yearly, from 2 132, 300 and 217 cases in 2016 to 5 466, 872 and 560 cases in 2020, respectively.Conclusion:The Medical Association has promoted the expansion of endoscopic screening and the application of endoscopic treatment techniques, resulting in a continuous increase in the endoscopy detection rate and early cancer diagnosis rate in the BTH region. The sharp decrease of gastrointestinal endoscopy procedures and the increase in the lesion detection rate in 2020 reflect the impact of epidemic COVID-19 on detection of gastrointestinal cancers.

Objective:To explore the change characteristics of event-related potential P300 in different violence risk levels of schizophrenic patients and analyze the risk factors of violence in schizophrenic patients.Methods:Totally 158 schizophrenic patients in Lyuzhou hospital of Shihezi City from January 2019 to August 2020 were collected and assessed with the violence risk scale for 3 days.According to the assessment results, the patients who met the inclusion criteria were divided into low-risk group( n=78), medium-risk group( n=51) and high-risk group( n=29). The auditory P300 of patients in each group was completed within 3 days and act of violence was observed and recorded within one week.Data analysis was carried out by SPSS 20.0 software.The changes of P300 in different violence risk groups were analyzed by ANOVA, and the influencing factors of violence in patients with schizophrenia were analyzed by logistic regression. Results:There was no significant difference in latency of P300 among the three groups (χ 2=4.71, P=0.10), but there was significant difference in amplitude of P300( F=6.67, P<0.01). Compared with the low-risk group ((12.14±9.19) μV), the amplitude of P300 in medium-risk group ((8.25±7.13) μV) and high risk group ((6.71±4.97) μV) decreased significantly ( t=-3.14, -5.45, both P<0.05). There was no significant difference in amplitude of P300 between the high-risk group and the middle-risk group( t=-2.31, P>0.05). The latency and amplitude of schizophrenia patients with violent behavior were significantly different from those without violent behavior ( Z=-6.30, 9.78, both P<0.01). High BVC grade (compared with high-risk group, low-risk group: OR=0.03, 95% CI : 0.00-0.35; the middle risk group: OR=0.09, 95% CI : 0.01-0.62), prolonged P300 latency ( OR=1.30, 95% CI : 1.13-1.48) and decreased P300 amplitude ( OR=0.50, 95% CI: 0.36-0.70), delusion of victimization ( OR=0.12, 95% CI: 0.02-0.76)were the risk factors for violent behavior. Conclusion:The latency and amplitude of P300 can be used as the reliable neuroelectrophysiological indicators for evaluating violence risk in patients with schizophrenia.It has important clinical application value for evaluating violence in patients with schizophrenia.

Objective To investigate the effect of agomelatine on memory impairment and expres-sion of extracellular signal-regulated kinase 5 (ERK5) in post-traumatic stress disorder ( PTSD)-like rats. Methods Forty-eight SD rats were divided into control group (SHAM group),post-traumatic stress disorder group (PTSD group),agomelatine group (AGO group) and placebo control group(PC group) according to random number table with 12 in each group. The PTSD-like model was established by internationally recog-nized single prolonged stress (SPS) stimulation,and the AGO group and PC group were given the same a-mount of agomelatine and saline respectively by intragastric administration within 8 hours after modeling for 14 days. The arousal emotional level and learning and memory ability of rats were observed by open field ex-periment and Morris water maze test. Then the expressions of ERK5 and ERK5 mRNA in hippocampus of rats were detected by Western blot and qRT-PCR. Results (1) The results of the open field experiment showed that compared with the SHAM group (38. 58±5. 76),the numbers of crossing the grids of the PTSD group (29. 75±3. 75) decreased (P<0. 01). Compared with the PC group (28. 58±2. 91),the number of crossing the grids of the AGO group (41. 00±4. 49) increased (P<0. 01). (2) In Morris water maze test, positioning navigation experiment showed that compared with the SHAM group, the escape latency of the PTSD group and the PC group increased (P<0. 01),while the escape latency of AGO group was shorter than that of the PC group (P<0. 01). And in the space exploration experiment,compared with the SHAM group (2. 12±0. 51),the times of crossing the platform in PTSD group (1. 03±0. 43) and the PC group (1. 23± 0. 59) decreased (P<0. 01),while the times of crossing the platform in AGO group (2. 75±0. 72) increased compared with PC group (P<0. 01). Compared with SHAM group (12. 14±2. 53),the latency of crossing the platform of PTSD group (27. 33±6. 54) increased (P<0. 01),and the agomelatine group (14. 36±4. 27) de-creased compared with the PC group (29. 67±9. 72) (P<0. 01). (3) Results of Western blot and qRT-PCR showed compared with the SHAM group,the levels of ERK5 and ERK5 mRNA in rat hippocampus were up-regulated in the PTSD group (P<0. 01),and the expression of ERK5 and ERK5 mRNA was higher than that of PC group (P<0. 01). Conclusion Agomelatine can effectively improve the learning and memory ability of PTSD-like rats,which may be related to the up-regulation of ERK5 protein expression in hippocampal tis-sues.
