Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of hypomethylating agents (HMA) in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) .Methods:A total of 409 MDS patients from 45 hospitals in Zhejiang province who received at least four consecutive cycles of HMA monotherapy as initial therapy were enrolled to evaluate the efficacy and safety of HMA. Mann-Whitney U or Chi-square tests were used to compare the differences in the clinical data. Logistic regression and Cox regression were used to analyze the factors affecting efficacy and survival. Kaplan-Meier was used for survival analysis. Results:Patients received HMA treatment for a median of 6 cycles (range, 4-25 cycles) . The complete remission (CR) rate was 33.98% and the overall response rate (ORR) was 77.02%. Multivariate analysis revealed that complex karyotype ( P=0.02, OR=0.39, 95% CI 0.18-0.84) was an independent favorable factor for CR rate. TP53 mutation ( P=0.02, OR=0.22, 95% CI 0.06-0.77) was a predictive factor for a higher ORR. The median OS for the HMA-treated patients was 25.67 (95% CI 21.14-30.19) months. HMA response ( P=0.036, HR=0.47, 95% CI 0.23-0.95) was an independent favorable prognostic factor, whereas complex karyotype ( P=0.024, HR=2.14, 95% CI 1.10-4.15) , leukemia transformation ( P<0.001, HR=2.839, 95% CI 1.64-4.92) , and TP53 mutation ( P=0.012, HR=2.19, 95% CI 1.19-4.07) were independent adverse prognostic factors. There was no significant difference in efficacy and survival between the reduced and standard doses of HMA. The CR rate and ORR of MDS patients treated with decitabine and azacitidine were not significantly different. The median OS of patients treated with decitabine was longer compared with that of patients treated with azacitidine (29.53 months vs 20.17 months, P=0.007) . The incidence of bone marrow suppression and pneumonia in the decitabine group was higher compared with that in the azacitidine group. Conclusion:Continuous and regular use of appropriate doses of hypomethylating agents may benefit MDS patients to the greatest extent if it is tolerated.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of using combined lumbar pelvis fixation device in the treatment of old vertical unstable fracture dislocation of posterior pelvic ring.Methods:Data of 7 patients with old vertical unstable fracture dislocation of posterior pelvic ring admitted and followed up from January 2017 to April 2020 were retrospectively analyzed, including 4 males and 3 females with an average age of 42.4 years old (range, 22-73 years old). There were 3 cases of traffic injury, 3 cases of falling injury and 1 case of tumble injury. According to Tile classification for pelvic fractures, there were 5 cases of type C1, 1 case of type C2 and 1 case of type C3. The average time from fracture to surgery was 5.4 weeks (range, 3-10 weeks). Among the 7 patients, 4 patients' posterior ring fractures were fixed by combined lumbar pelvic triangle fixation, and 3 patients' posterior ring fracture were fixed by combined lumbar pelvic fixation. 4 patients' anterior ring injury were not treated, 2 patients' anterior ring injury were treated by closed cannulated screw and internal fixation, and 1 patient's anterior ring injury was fixed by INFIX and cannulated screw. Every patient's operating time, intraoperative blood loss, length of incision and times of X-ray fluoroscopy were recorded. Pelvic X-ray and CT scan were taken postoperatively to observe the condition of reduction and screw position. Postoperative fracture reduction quality was assessed by Matta radiological criteria and Majeed criteria was used at the final follow-ups to evaluate the degree of functional recovery after pelvic fracture.Results:The average operating time of 7 patients was 143 min (range, 96-205 min); the intraoperative average blood loss was 579 ml (range, 300-1 650 ml); the average length of incisions was 12.9 cm (range, 9-15 cm) and the average time of X-ray fluoroscopy was 27 times (range, 15-52 times). Postoperative X-ray and CT scan showed that the displacements of the posterior rings were reset well and all the hollow screws were located accurately and firmly. Postoperative radiation quality was evaluated according to Matta radiological criteria, and there were 4 cases of excellent, 2 cases of good and 1 case of fair, with an excellent and good rate of 85.7% (6/7). Seven patients had good fracture union. The average followed up time for all 7 patients was 12 months (range, 6-16 months). At the last follow-up, imaging examination showed good reduction of the sacroiliac joint, and the reduction of anterior and posterior rings were not lost. The healing time was 14.2 weeks (range, 12-20 weeks).

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics, risk factors for critical illness and death of severe adenovirus pneumonia in children, so as to provide clinical evidences for early diagnosis and reliable treatment.Methods:A total of 75 pediatric cases with severe adenovirus pneumonia admitted to Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from January to October 2019 were studied. The clinical features, laboratory and imaging data, therapeutic approaches, efficacy of the treatments and prognosis were investigated retrospectively. Patients were divided into severe group and critical group. Chi square test and Mann-Whitney U rank sum test were used to analyze the data of the two groups. The risk factors for critical illness and death were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Logistic regression. Results:Among the 75 children, there were 52 males and 23 females, aged from 3 months to 8 years, including 30 of severe cases and 45 of critical case. The positive rate of adenovirus antigen in nasopharyngeal swab was 21% (15/72), and the positive rate of serum adenovirus IgM antibody was only 13% (10/75). However, the positive rate of adenovirus nucleic acid in nasopharyngeal swab was 75% (21/28). What is more, the positive rates of metagenomics next generation sequencing (mNGS) in plasma and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid were 92% (33/36) and 96% (54/56), respectively, of which 95% (63/66) were confirmed as adenovirus type 7. Relatively high dose of ribavirin and integrated therapeutic approaches (respiratory support, glucocorticoids, immunoglobulin and organ supportive therapies) were used. The recovery rate was 77% (58/75), the improvement rate was 8% (6/75) and the mortality rate was 15% (11/75). The proportion of children with the duration of fever longer than 3 days after ribavirin treatment in the critical group was significantly higher than that in the severe group(51% (18/35) vs. 8% (2/26), χ 2=12.949, P<0.05). The risk factors for critical illness were younger than 4 years, longer duration of fever before and after admission to PICU, oxygenation index<300 mmHg (1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa), ferritin>1 000 μg/L, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)>1 500 U/L, 5 lung lobes involvement, pleural effusion and (or) air leakage (all P<0.05). Among them, 5 lung lobes involvement was the independent risk factor for critical illness (adjusted OR=49.641, 95% CI 4.186-588.618, P=0.002). Risk factors for death included longer duration of fever after being admitted to PICU, oxygenation index<100 mmHg, ferritin>2 000 μg/L, interleukin (IL)-6>100 ng/L, LDH>1 500 U/L, pleural effusion and (or) air leakage (all P<0.05). Among them, IL-6>100 ng/L was the independent risk factor for the mortalities of critically ill children (adjusted OR=16.094, 95% CI2.059-25.787, P=0.008). Conclusions:The mortality rate of severe pediatric adenovirus pneumonia caused by adenovirus type 7 is high. High positive rates of adenovirus nucleic acid in nasopharyngeal swabs and mNGS in plasma or bronchoalveolar lavage fluid contribute to early diagnosis, and mNGS can also be used for serotyping. Younger children under 4 years of age, persistent fever, extensive pulmonary lesions and significantly increased inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6 are warning indicators for critical illness and poor prognosis. Relatively high dose of ribavirin combined with integrated therapeutic approaches are beneficial for prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of using INFIX combined with hollow nail in the treatment of anterior pelvic ring injury with symphyseolysis.Methods:Data of 12 patients with anterior pelvic ring injury and symphyseolysis who were treated from January 2016 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. They were 8 males and 4 females with an average age of 39.5 years (range, 23-64 years). There were 4 cases of traffic injury, 3 cases of falling injury and 5 cases of crush injury; all the cases were combined with front and rear crush injury. According to Tile classification for pelvic fractures, there were 6 cases of type B1 , 3 cases of type B3, 1 case of type C1 and 2 cases of type C2. Six cases of B1 and 3 cases of B3 patients used percutaneous inter fixation with sacroiliac joint cannulated screw in posterior ring; 1 case of C1 and 2 cases of C2 used spinal-pelvic fixation. Every patients' operating time of INFIX combined with the pubic symphysis hollow nail , amount of hemorrhage, length of incisions and number of X-ray projections were recorded. Pelvic X-ray and CT scan were taken postoperatively to observe the reduction and screw position. Postoperative reduction quality was assessed using Matta radiological criteria and Majeed criteria was used at the final follow-up to evaluate the pelvic function.Results:The average operating time for 12 patients was 42 min (range, 35-56 min) ; the average amount of hemorrhage was 28 ml (range, 15-40 ml); the average length of incision at INFIX nail placement on both sides were 2.7 cm (range, 2.2-3.5 cm); the average length of incisions at the pubic symphysis hollow nail placement was 0.8 cm (range, 0.6-1.2 cm) and the average number of X-ray projections was 38 times (range, 26-55 times). Postoperative X-ray and CT scan showed that all the hollow screws are located accurately and firmly, and pubic symphysis had good reduction and no infection occurred in the surgical incision at the screw placement site. Postoperative reduction quality was evaluated according to Matta radiological criteria, and there were excellent in 10 and good in 2, giving an excellent to good rate of 100% (12/12). The average follow-up time for the 12 patients was 12 months (range, 6-15 months). At the final follow-up, all patients showed fine fracture union and no looseness of pubic symphysis occurred according to imaging test. According to the Majeed criteria, the pelvic function was excellent in 8 cases, good in 3 cases and fair in 1 case, giving a good to excellent rate of 91.7% (11/12). One case developed symptoms of femoral nerve compression after surgery and returned to normal after removal of the INFIX. Another case had damage to the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve and the symptoms disappeared after three months.Conclusion:Using INFIX combined with hollow nail in the treatment of symphyseolysis can lead to more minimally invasive with excellent postoperative efficacy and markedly reduced the morbidity of complication.
