Objective:To analyze the comorbidity status and influencing factors of hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia among middle-aged and elderly Chinese adults and to provide support for the "co-management of three diseases".Methods:Using the relevant information collected from the National Chronic Disease and Risk Factor Surveillance in China in 2018, 134 950 permanent residents aged ≥45 years were selected as the research objects. After being weighed, the prevalence and comorbidity of hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia in residents with different groups were compared; a multivariate logistic regression model was used to explore the influencing factors of comorbidity of the "three diseases".Results:The prevalence of hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia among middle-aged and elderly Chinese adults were 46.0% (95% CI:45.1%-47.0%), 19.5% (95% CI:18.7%-20.2%), 43.3% (95% CI:42.3%-44.4%), respectively. The comorbidity rates of hypertension and diabetes, hypertension and dyslipidemia, and diabetes and dyslipidemia were 12.3% (95% CI:11.7%-12.8%), 22.8% (95% CI:22.1%-23.4%),11.6% (95% CI:11.1%-12.0%), respectively; the comorbidity rate of hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia was 7.6% (95% CI: 7.2%-8.0%). These comorbidity rates increased with age and BMI, which was more significant in the urban areas than rural areas and more outstanding in North and Northeast China ( P<0.05). The comorbidity rate of hypertension, diabetes, and higher cholesterol was 1.9% (95% CI:1.7%-2.1%). The comorbidity rate of hypertension, diabetes, and higher low-density lipoprotein was 1.6% (95% CI:1.4%-1.7%), which was higher in women than in men ( P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression results showed that male, age, city, overweight/obesity, excessive drinking, physical inactivity, daily sedentary behavior time ≥5 hours, and sleep duration <7 hours were risk factors for the comorbidity of the "three diseases". Conclusions:The comorbidity of hypertension, diabetes, and dyslipidemia, is common among middle-aged and elderly adults in China; comprehensive prevention and control of risk factors and "co-management of three diseases" are critical measures for health promotion in middle-aged and elderly populations.

Objective:To investigate the effects of hyperuricemia on the prognosis of IgA nephropathy (IgAN) using propensity score matching (PSM) method.Methods:IgAN patients proven by biopsy were included. PSM was used to match patients. Kaplan-Meier method was used for survival analysis, and Cox regression analysis was used to analyze the effects of hyperuricemia on IgAN prognosis. Primary outcome events were defined as death, or end-stage renal disease (dialysis, transplantation), or a decrease in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) greater than 40%. Renal outcome was defined as end-stage renal disease (dialysis, transplantation), or a decrease in eGFR greater than 40%.Results:A total of 1 454 IgAN patients were included in this study, including 850 females and 604 males. Uric acid level was (368.26±92.87) μmol/L in the males, and (277.23±92.71) μmol/L in the females. The median follow-up time was 85.00(56.10, 106.33) months. During the follow-up period, a total of 134 patients reached the primary outcome events, including 5 deaths, 24 dialysis patients, 5 kidney transplant patients, and 100 patients with eGFR decreased by more than 40%. After 1∶1 matching, 131 males and 159 females in the hyperuricemia group were successfully matched with 131 males and 159 females in the normal uric acid group, and there was no significant statistical difference in each parameter in baseline between the hyperuricemia group and normal uric acid group after matching. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that either before or after matching, the incidence of primary outcome events in male or female patients with hyperuricemia was higher than those with normal uric acid, but there was no statistically significant difference in incidence of primary outcome events between female hyperuricemia group and female normal uric acid group after matching (Log-rank test, χ2=3.586, P=0.058). Cox proportional hazard regression model showed that, in the pre-match fully adjusted model, the hazard ratio ( HR) of entering primary outcome events was 2.29-fold (95% CI 1.27-4.11, P=0.006) for men with hyperuricemia and 1.85-fold (95% CI 1.01-3.37, P=0.045) for women with hyperuricemia compared with those with normal uric acid. In the post-match fully adjusted model, the HR of entering primary outcome events was 2.41-fold (95% CI 1.18-4.93, P=0.016) for men with hyperuricemia and 1.83-fold (95% CI 0.91-3.67, P=0.091) for women with hyperuricemia compared with those with normal uric acid. In the pre-match fully adjusted model, the HR of entering renal outcome events was 2.68-fold (95% CI 1.47-4.88, P=0.001) for men with hyperuricemia and 1.81-fold (95% CI 0.99-3.33, P=0.056) for women with hyperuricemia compared with those with normal uric acid. In the post-match fully adjusted model, the HR of entering renal outcome events was 2.89-fold (95% CI 1.36-6.15, P=0.006) for men with hyperuricemia and 1.81-fold (95% CI 0.88-3.72, P=0.106) for women with hyperuricemia compared with those with normal uric acid. Conclusion:Hyperuricemia may be associated with IgAN progression, and it has a more significant effect on male IgAN patients.

Objective:
To analyze the frequency and composition of risk-related cytogenetic abnormalities (CAs) in patients with newly-diagnosed multiple myeloma (NDMM) .
Methods:
The frequency and composition of risk-related CAs from a cohort of 1 015 Chinese patients with NDMM were determined by interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization (iFISH) , individually or in combination.
Results:
Of the cohort of 1 015 Chinese patients with NDMM, the frequencies of IgH arrangement, del (13q) /13q14, 1q gain and del (17p) were 54.0%, 46.4%, 46.1% (35.8% and 12. 7% for 3 or more than 3 copies) and 9.9%, respectively. Among 454 patients who had the baseline information for all risk-related CAs [except t (14;20) , which was not covered by the FISH panels performed routinely at all five centers], the frequencies of t (4;14) , t (11;14) or t (14;20) were 14.1%, 11.2% and 4.8%, respectively; of them, 44.3% patients carried 2 or more CAs (28.0%, 13.4% and 2.9% for 2, 3 or ≥4 CAs) ; 83.3%, 95.0% or 68.6% patients with 1q gain, del (17p) or IgH rearrangement had 1 or more additional CA (s) , with del (13q) /13q14 as the most frequently accompanied CA; 57.7% patients carried at least 1 HRCA; the incidences of double-hit (DH) MM (DHMM) (=2 HRCAs) and triple-hit (TH) (THMM) (≥3 HRCAs) were 14.3% and 2.9%, respectively.
Conclusions
Our results provided an up-to-date profile of CAs in Chinese NDMM patients, which revealed that approximately 58% patients might carry at least 1 HRCA, and 17% could experience so-called DHMM or THMM who presumably had the worst outcome.

OBJECTIVE: To systematically evaluate the mode of personnel training in pharmacy intravenous admixture services (PIVAS) in China, and to provide reference for the comprehensive training of pharmacist in PIVAS in China. METHODS: PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, CBM, CJFD, VIP and Wanfang database were searched from the establishment of database to Sept. 2018. Studies which evaluated the training mode of PIVAS in China were included, and the results were presented by descriptive analysis in respects of training objects, training objectives, contents and evaluation indicators. RESULTS: A total of 5 literatures were included. The research types were 2 before-after control studies, 2 experience sharing studies and 1 review. 3 subjects were pharmacists, 1 subject was clinical pharmacists, and 1 subject was nurses. The training objectives were comprehensive quality training, clinical rational drug use level, pharmacy personnel training path and professional service ability. The specific training content of the training mode varied greatly, including professional theoretical knowledge, practical operation ability, pre-job training, professional psychological quality, professional ethics and laws and regulations, continuing education learning ability, career development planning and teaching ability. There were great differences in the evaluation indicators of training effectiveness, which were mainly reflected in team execution motivation and creativity, discoveny rate of unreasonable doctor’s advice, work efficiency, service quality, drug treatment level and satisfaction of PIVAS, etc. CONCLUSIONS: There are certain differences in the training objectives, training targets, specific contents and evaluation indicators of the PIVAS pharmacist training model in China. It is necessary to use the evidence- based method to construct the training mode for PIVAS pharmacist to provide support for clinical intravenous drug use.

OBJECTIVE: To systematically evaluate current status of charges in pharmacy intravenous admixture services (PIVAS), and to provide reference for the formulation of China’s pharmacy intravenous admixture services (PIVAS) charging standards. METHODS: Retrieved from PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library, CBM, CNKI, VIP, Wanfang database and related goverment websets, the literatures about current status evaluation of charges in PIVAS of China were collected during the establishment of database to Jan. 2019. Cost estimation, charge standard, influential factors and other indicators were collected, and the results were presented by descriptive analysis. RESULTS: A total of 5 literatures were included, all of which were reviewed. According to the existing literatures, except for Shandong, Guangdong and Yunnan provinces, there were no regional charge standards in other provinces (districts and cities). The cost estimation methods of PIVAS in these three provinces were basically the same. The cost could be obtained by adding up the business fees, labor fees, fees of medical instruments purchase and use, indirect fees etc. Dispensing charges in PIVAS were 3-5 yuan per piece for general drug, 5 yuan per piece for antibiotics and 8-12 yuan per piece for cancer chemotherapeutics, 20-35 yuan per piece for TPN. The charging level was mainly affected by local prices, PIVAS scale, hardware investment, management and other factors. CONCLUSIONS: There is no unified charging standard for PIVAS in most provinces (districts, cities) of China. The cost estimation methods of the hospitals from the included literatures are basically the same. It is necessary to construct national PIVAS charging standard and cost estimation method, which could provide a basis for formulating the price of medical and health services.

OBJECTIVE: To systematically evaluate the status quo of cost estimation in pharmacy intravenous admixture services (PIVAS), and to provide cost basis for the construction of PIVAS in China. METHODS: Retrieved from PubMed, Embase, Cochrane library, CBM, CNKI, CSJD and Wanfang database from database establishment to Jan. 2019, the studies about the status quo of cost estimation in PIVAS of China were included. The descriptive analysis was conducted for content and method of cost estimation, infection to hospital. RESULTS: A total of 17 literatures were included, involving 8 before and after control studies, 6 experience sharing studies and 3 reviews. Existing reports showed that the estimation contents and methods of PIVAS cost were roughly the same. The cost included manpower, medical and health materials, fixed asset purchase, depreciation, repair costs, medicine cost and indirect costs. At the same time, the infection to hospital were reported, such as in manpower adopting, formulating detailed management measures and systems, concurrent allocation of the same kind of drugs, shortening infusion preparation and replacement time, in order to save manpower cost. CONCLUSIONS: PIVAS cost calculation method is roughly the same in some hospitals, but there is no uniform standard. It is necessary to further improve the PIVAS cost measurement standard and provide a basis for the construction and development of PIVAS in China.

Objective:
To evaluate clinical outcomes of autologous and allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) for aggressive peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL).
Methods:
From June 2007 to June 2017, clinical data of PTCL patients who underwent PBSCT were assessed retrospectively.
Results:
Among 41 patients, 30 was male, 11 female, and median age was 38(13-57) years old. Seventeen patients with autologous PBSCT (auto-PBSCT) and 24 patients with allogeneic PBSCT (allo-PBSCT) were enrolled in this study. Eight patients (8/17, 47.1%) in auto-PBSCT group were ALK positive anaplastic large cell lymphoma (ALCL), 7 patients (7/24, 29.2%) with NK/T cell lymphoma and 9 patients (9/24, 37.5%) with PTCL-unspecified (PTCL-U) in allo-PBSCT group (

OBJECTIVETo explore the influence of relapse and survival by chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD) in patients with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) after allogeneic hematopoietics stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).
METHODSFifty-five AML patients received allo-HSCT were retrospectively reviewed. Relapse rate and overall survival (OS) were analyzed according to cGVHD.
RESULTScGVHD significantly decreased the relapse rate of AML patients after transplantation within 2 years when compared with those without cGVHD (8.7% vs 38.6%, P=0.019), however, cGVHD had no effect on the long-term relapse rate (22.8% vs 5.9%, P=0.217). cGVHD had no effect on OS within 2 years (78.3% vs 61.0%, P=0.155) but could decrease the rate of long-term survival (63.7% vs 100%,P=0.01). cGVHD also could reduce the rate of relapse (8.3% vs 46.2%, P=0.044) and enhanced the rate of survival (83.3% vs 47.2%, P=0.045) in patients with high risk AML after allo-HSCT in 2 years, while it had no effect on the relapse rate and OS in patients with low and intermediated risk AML in early and late phase. Moreover, compared with the rate of relapse(38.6%) in patients without cGVHD, the rate of relapse were lower in patients with limited cGVHD and intensive cGVHD (27.3% and 31.3%, respectively) but the long-term survival was significantly lower (53.3%, P=0.001) in those patients with intensive cGVHD after all-HSCT.
CONCLUSIONThe benefit effect of cGVHD mainly took place within 2 years after allo-HSCT in AML patients especially in those with high risk, while in late phase after allo-HSCT, cGVHD especially intensive cGVHD had an effect on reducing long-term survival.

BACKGROUNDAllogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation from unrelated donors (UR-PBSCT) is an alternative treatment for many hematologic diseases due to lack of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-identical sibling donors. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the degree of the HLA match on the clinical efficacy of UR-PBSCT.
METHODSPatients who underwent UR-PBSCT from September 2003 to September 2012 were retrospectively investigated. They were divided into three groups according to high-resolution molecular typing. SPSS version 17.0 was used to analysis and compare the statistics of engraftment, incidence of GVHD, other complications and survival among the groups.
RESULTSOne hundred and eleven patients received UR-PBSCT, 60 of them with an HLA matched donor (10/10), 36 of them with a one locus mismatched donor (9/10), and 15 of them with a two loci mismatched donor (8/10). Similar basic characteristics were found in the three groups. No differences were found in engraftment of myeloid cells or platelets in the three groups (P > 0.05). Two-year cumulative incidence of relapse, overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) among those three groups were similar (P > 0.05). The cumulative incidence of 100-day III-IV aGVHD in the HLA matched group and the one HLA locus mismatched group were significantly lower than that in the two HLA loci mismatched group (3.3%, 8.6%, and 26.7%, P = 0.009). The occurrence rate of new pulmonary infections in the HLA matched group was lower than in the two HLA mismatched groups (26.67%, 52.78%, and 41.18%, P = 0.035). The cumulative incidence of 100-day and 2-year transplantation related mortality (TRM) in two HLA loci mismatched group was higher than in the HLA matched group and in the one HLA locus mismatched group, (8.4%, 11.8% and 33.3%, P = 0.016) and (12.3%, 18.7% and 47.5%, P = 0.002).
CONCLUSIONSHLA mismatch will not significantly impact the engraftment or 2-year survival after UR-PBSCT, but two mismatched HLA loci may increase the cumulative incidence of severe aGVHD and TRM.
