Purpose:
The risk stratification of pediatric anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL) has not been standardized. In this study, new risk factors were included to establish a new risk stratification system for ALCL, and its feasibility in clinical practice was explored.
Materials and Methods:
On the basis of the non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma Berlin–Frankfurt–Munster 95 (NHL-BFM-95) protocol, patients with minimal disseminated disease (MDD), high-risk tumor site (multiple bone, skin, liver, and lung involvement), and small cell/lymphohistiocytic (SC/LH) pathological subtype were enrolled in risk stratification. Patients were treated with a modified NHL-BFM-95 protocol combined with an anaplastic lymphoma kinase inhibitor or vinblastine (VBL).
Results:
A total of 136 patients were enrolled in this study. The median age was 8.8 years. The 3-year event-free survival (EFS) and overall survival of the entire cohort were 77.7% (95% confidence interval [CI], 69.0% to 83.9%) and 92.3% (95% CI, 86.1% to 95.8%), respectively. The 3-year EFS rates of low-risk group (R1), intermediate-risk group (R2), and high-risk group (R3) patients were 100%, 89.5% (95% CI, 76.5% to 95.5%), and 67.9% (95% CI, 55.4% to 77.6%), respectively. The prognosis of patients with MDD (+), stage IV cancer, SC/LH lymphoma, and high-risk sites was poor, and the 3-year EFS rates were 45.3% (95% CI, 68.6% to 19.0%), 65.7% (95% CI, 47.6% to 78.9%), 55.7% (95% CI, 26.2% to 77.5%), and 70.7% (95% CI, 48.6% to 84.6%), respectively. At the end of follow-up, one of the five patients who received maintenance therapy with VBL relapsed, and seven patients receiving anaplastic lymphoma kinase inhibitor maintenance therapy did not experience relapse.
Conclusion
This study has confirmed the poor prognostic of MDD (+), high-risk site and SC/LH, but patients with SC/LH lymphoma and MDD (+) at diagnosis still need to receive better treatment (ClinicalTrials.gov number, NCT03971305).

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of Baixiao moxibustion combined with acupuncture in the treatment of patients with dysmenorrhea of cold coagulation and blood stasis.Methods:A total of 90 patients with dysmenorrhea of cold coagulation and blood stasis who were treated in Huangpu Branch of Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine and met the inclusion criteria were enrolled between January 2019 and January 2020, and they were divided into observation group (47 patients) and control group (43 patients) according to the random number table method. The control group was treated by acupuncture, while the observation group combined Baixiao moxibustion with acpuncture treatment. Both groups were treated for 3 menstrual cycles. Before and after treatment, TCM syndromes were scored, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) was used to evaluate pain intensity, and uterine hemodynamics were detected by ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus. The pulsatility index (PI), resistance index (RI) and ratio of peak systole/peak diastole (S/D) were recorded and the clinical efficacy was assessed.Results:The total effective rate was 97.87% (46/47) in observation group and that in control group was 81.40% (35/43), and the difference between two groups were significant ( χ2=6.77, P=0.009). After treatment, the scores of lower abdominal pain, dark blood clots, intolerance of cold and cold limbs and nausea and vomiting as well as VAS scores in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group ( t=3.61, 5.60, 6.22, 8.02, 10.36, all Ps<0.01). After treatment, the RI (1.45±0.55 vs. 1.86±0.53, t=3.59), PI (0.61±0.14 vs. 0.77±0.13, t=5.60) and S/D (5.28±1.18 vs. 7.23±1.22, t=7.71) in observation group were significantly lower than those in control group ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Baixiao moxibustion combined with acupuncture can relieve the pain symptoms, improve the TCM syndromes and promote the uterine blood circulation.

Objective:To provide the risk stratification method of hepatoblastoma (HB) suitable for implementation in China and explore the new treatment method for high-risk HB patients.Methods:A total of 100 cases of children and adolescents under 18 years old with newly diagnosed HB in Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center and Sun Yat-sen University First Affiliated Hospital from September 2014 to September 2018 were included. According to the clinical stage, AFP level, pathological subtype and other factors, patients were stratified into four groups: extremely low-, low-, intermediate- and high-risk. The patients at very low risk were treated with surgery only and followed-up. The patients at very low risk were treated with C5V(Cisplatin+ 5-Fluroracil+ Vincristine) regimen for 4 courses. The patients at intermediate risk were treated with C5VD(Cisplatin+ 5-Fluroracil+ Vincristine+ Doxorubicin)regimen before and after surgery for 6-8 courses. The patients at high risk were treated with C5VD and IIV (ifoshamide+ irinotecan+ vincristine) alternately before and after surgery for 8 courses.Results:One hundred patients were stratified into extremely low-risk, low-risk, medium-risk and high-risk groups for 2, 10, 51 and 37 cases, respectively. Eighty three cases had evaluable lesions before chemotherapy. Among them, 65 patients achieved partial remission, stable disease and progressive disease were observed in 10, and 8 cases, respectively, with a response rate of 78.3%. During a median follow-up of 20 months, 30 patients experienced tumor relapse or progression, and 27 of them died. The 2-years progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates were 69.2% and 72.0%, respectively. The 2-years PFS rates of patients with extremely low risk, low risk, medium risk and high risk were 100%, 88.9%, 75.3% and 43.2%, respectively. The 2-years OS rates were 100%, 100%, 81.0% and 44.8%, respectively.Conclusions:The novel HB risk classification is simple and feasible. With active comprehensive treatment, patients at extremely low-, low- and medium-risk have excellent outcomes. The survival rate of high-risk HB patients remains to be improved, and new treatment strategies need to be explored.

Objective:To summarize the efficiency and long-term outcomes of limited-stage Hodgkin lymphoma in children and adolescents with ABVD therapy and determined whether omitting radiotherapy for a low-risk patient enabled the achievement of complete response (CR) after chemotherapy.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed data from 13 y (2004-2016) from patients aged ≤18 y with limited-stage HL admitted to the Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center. Patients received treatment with ABVD chemotherapy alone or ABVD chemotherapy followed by low-dose involved field radiotherapy.Results:Total 85 subjects were eligible for study inclusion; the median age was 12 (3-18) y; 66 (77.6%) were men, 80 (94.1%) had stage-II disease, 56 (65.9%) were at low-risk, and the median follow-up duration was 72 (8-196) months; 12 relapsed, 2 had secondary neoplasm, and 2 died. The 5-year event free survival (EFS) was (85.6±3.8) %, and the overall survival (OS) was 100%. The 5-year EFS and OS was (89.1±4.2) % and 100%, respectively, for the low-risk cohort and (79.3±7.5) % and 100%, respectively for the intermediate-risk cohort. Among the 39 low-risk patients who achieved CR after chemotherapy, 15 received treatment with chemotherapy followed by LD-IFRT. In the exploratory subset analysis, the low-risk cohort who achieved CR after chemotherapy, the 5-year EFS for comparing ABVD alone with chemotherapy followed by LD-IFRT was (87.0±7.0) % versus 100% ( P=0.506) , and the OS was 100% for both the groups. Conclusions:Our retrospective analysis showed excellent survival of limited-stage HL patients with ABVD therapy. For patients who achieving CR after chemotherapy with low-risk HL, received chemotherapy followed by LD-IFRT does not improve 5-year OS and EFS. The use of risk- and response-based stratification may facilitate the development of effective and less toxic protocols.

Objective To investigate the incidence and risk factors of neonatal asphyxia in Hubei Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture. Methods Live born infants, including those diagnosed with neonatal asphyxia, were recruited from 16 different hospitals in Hubei Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture from January to December of 2016. The 16 hospitals included four grade A tertiary hospitals (three general hospitals and one traditional Chinese medicine hospital) and 12 grade A secondary hospitals (eight general hospitals, one maternal and child health hospital and three traditional Chinese medicine hospitals). A retrospective investigation was conducted using questionnaire to analyze the basic information, perinatal risk factors and prognosis of those infants. Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis. Results Among 22 294 recruited live born infants, 733 (3.29%) were diagnosed with neonatal asphyxia on discharge, including 627 (85.54%) mild cases and 106 (14.46%) severe cases. And neonatal asphyxia resulted in deaths of 27 cases (3.68%). The risk factors for neonatal asphyxia included multiple pregnancy, pregnancy conceived with assisted reproductive technology, premature infant, low birth weight infant, fetal malposition, congenital malformation, male infant, born during transfer, mother of Tujia nationality, low educational level (primary school or lower), living in rural area, the number of antenatal visits ≤3, history of early threatened abortion, anemia in pregnancy, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, chorioamnionitis, abnormal pregnancy history and abnormality of umbilical cord, amniotic fluid or placenta. Conclusions The incidence of neonatal asphyxia in Enshi area is obviously higher than the national average. The main risk factors for neonatal asphyxia in this area are related to maternal background and the living condition of the mother during pregnancy, delivery as well as the newborn at birth.

Objective To evaluate the effects of nitrous oxide inhalation on conscious sedation of patients during colonoscopy and analyze its risk factors. Methods From October 2016 to July 2017, a total of 154 patients undergoing colonoscopy were included in the study. The comfort level was rated using Modified Gloucester Comfort Scale ( MGCS). Factors affecting comfort level were analyzed by univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression, and then a comfort stratification predicting model was created. Results All 154 patients finished colonoscopy. The mean time of ideal anesthesia state was 195. 15 s. Among the 154 cases, 115 ( 74. 7%) were identified as comfort ( grade of MGCS from 1 to 3) and 39 (25. 3%) were rated as discomfort ( grade of MGCS from 4 to 5). Multivariate regression indicated that age ≥60 years ( P=0. 000, OR=1. 074, 95%CI: 1. 036-1. 114) and mild anxiety ( P=0. 018, OR=3. 338, 95%CI: 1. 227-9. 079) were associated with comfort level during colonoscopy.The established model with the age (X1) and mild anxiety (X2) was P=eY/(1+eY), Y=-3. 812+0. 071X1+1. 205X2(no anxiety was assigned 1, mild anxiety was assigned 2), and the area under the receiver operating characteristics curve was 0. 746 (95%CI: 0. 661-0. 830), which showed moderate predictive power of the final model. The model reached the highest predictive accuracy when the Yoden Index was 0. 838 with sensitivity of 50. 4% and specificity of 89. 7% for predicting comfort level of patients in conscious sedation status induced by nitrous oxide inhalation during colonoscopy. Conclusion Nitrous oxide can ease pain during colonoscopy, especially for patients over 60 years old and with anxiety. We can use it as an option according to actual circumstance in practice.

Objective:
To investigate the sleep status in children and adolescents and explore the relationship between the sleep and high blood pressure in them.
Methods:
Data was from the Schoolbased Cardiovascular and Bone Health Promotiow Program (SCVBH) in Beijing. And 13 471 children and adolescents aged 6-16 years were selected from grades 1 to 4 in 8 primary schools, grade 1 in 21 middle schools and senior grade 1 in one twelve-year education school in Dongcheng, Fangshan, Miyun and Tongzhou Districts of Beijing during 2017-2018 by using a cluster sampling method. Self-reported questionnaires were used to collect the demographic characteristics, lifestyle habits of children and adolescents. The blood pressure was measured by electronic sphygmomanometer. Multiple logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between sleep and hypertension risk.
Results:
The sleep duration was (8.4±1.1) hours. The prevalence of high blood pressure was 15.0%(2 021/13 471). The incidence of mouth breathing, slobber, snoring, and suffocate was 28.4%(3 823/13 471), 23.6%(3 184/13 471) and 18.7%(2 513/13 471), 2.8%(378/13 471) respectively. After adjusting for age, gender, snoring, mouth breaking, slobber, suffocate, the time for bed and sleep duration, we found that snoring and sleep duration (5.0-6.9 h) were both associated with high blood pressure (
