Objective:Using real-world data to analyze whether the administration of carbapenems within 7 days before the treatment or during the treatment will reduce the effectiveness of sodium valproate in patients with status epilepticus (SE) and seizure clusters (SC).Methods:The clinical data of SE and SC patients who received intravenous administration of sodium valproate in the Department of Emergency of Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University from 2017 to 2021 were collected. The main endpoint was the failure to terminate epileptic seizures after sodium valproate injection. Univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression model were used to analyze whether the carbapenems was an independent risk factor for the failure of sodium valproate treatment.Results:Finally, 142 SE patients and 181 SC patients were included. Univariate analysis revealed that the use of carbapenems within 7 days before or during the treatment was a risk factor for the failure of sodium valproate treatment in SC patients (χ 2=5.498, P=0.019), but was not a risk factor for the failure of sodium valproate treatment in SE patients (χ 2=3.015, P=0.082). Through multiple factor analysis, it was found that the use of carbapenems was an independent risk factor for the seizures not terminatd by sodium valproate in SC patients ( OR=3.462, 95% CI 1.180-10.157); the interval between onset and medication≥4 hours increased the risk of sodium valproate treatment failure in SE patients ( OR=4.591, 95% CI 1.443-14.607); simultaneously using benzodiazepines could reduce the risk of sodium valproate treatment failure in SE patients ( OR=0.300, 95% CI 0.128-0.703). Conclusions:The use of carbapenems by SC patients within 7 days before or during treatment may lead to the failure of sodium valproate treatment. In clinical practice, the use of sodium valproate as a medication to terminate seizures in SC patients can be determined based on their medication records.

Objective To investigate the clinical features and prognosis of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) with CREBBP gene mutation. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 14 ALL children with CREBBP gene mutation who were admitted to Children's Hospital of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2016 to December 2023. Results The ALL patients with CREBBP gene mutation accounted for 1.5% (14/963) among all children diagnosed with ALL during the same period of time,among whom there were 4 boys (29%) and 10 girls (71%),with a median age of 4 years and 3.5 months. All children had an immunological type of B-cell ALL and concurrent mutations in other genes including NRAS,KRAS,ETV6,FLT3,PAX5,SH2B3,CDKN2A,and CDKN2B,and 4 children had karyotype abnormality. All 14 children received induction therapy with the VDLP regimen,with a complete remission (CR) rate of 79% (11/14) after the first course of treatment. Three children experienced bone marrow recurrence alone,with a recurrence rate of 21% (3/14),among whom 1 child achieved CR after blinatumomab therapy and 2 received bridging hematopoietic stem cell transplantation after chemotherapy for recurrence. Among the 14 children,1 died due to treatment discontinuation and 13 achieved disease-free survival. The 5-year overall survival rate was 92%±7%,and the event-free survival rate was 73%±13%. Conclusions ALL with CREBBP gene mutation is more common in girls and has a low induction remission rate and a high recurrence rate,and it is often accompanied by other types of gene mutations and abnormal karyotypes. Most children with recurrence can achieve long-term survival after immunotherapy or hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
