Objective To explore the feasibility of electrical impedance tomography(EIT)for real-time and accurate monitoring of respiration during HP anti-G movements and the key parameters of pulmonary ventilation.Methods Twelve healthy male students in our university were enrolled in September 2023 and subjected in this study.HP anti-G movements were performed 3 times each for 30 s in the anti-G physiological training apparatus,during which EIT and ophthalmic horizontal arterial pressure were measured to analyze the relationship of the global and local parameters of pulmonary ventilation,including inspiratory volume(IV),expiratory uniform(EU),expiratory speed(ES),center of ventilation(COV)and right-to-left lung ventilation ratio(RtoL)with anti-G ability of anti-G straining maneuver(AGSM).Results The average eye horizontal systolic blood pressure(SBP)at the eye level was 148.82±22.75 mmHg during HP anti-G movements,which was significantly higher than that during quiet breathing(PJ)(95.17±8.51 mmHg,P＜0.001).From the global pulmonary ventilation,the participants had significantly increased IV during HP anti-G movements(P＜0.001).According the d value(mean increase of eye horizontal SBP=SBPHP-SBPPJ),the subjects were divided into 3 groups,with the d value of＞60,30～60 and＜30 mmHg,respectively.The inspiratory volume ratio(IVHP/IVPJ)was the highest in the＞60 mmHg group and the smallest in the＜30 mmHg group(P＜0.01).The subjects had significantly decreased EU and more evenly expiration(P＜0.05),but no change was seen in the expiratory uniformity ratio(EUHP/EUPJ)among the 3 groups.ES was obviously faster during HP anti-G movements(P＜0.001),and the expiratory speed ratio(ESHP/ESPJ)had no significant difference among the 3 groups.The inspiratory time and expiratory time were 0.77±0.32 and 1.59±0.21 s,respectively,and both of them were notably shorter during HP anti-G movements(P＜0.001,P＜0.01).From the local pulmonary ventilation,COV during HP anti-G movements was significantly smaller than that during PJ(P＜0.001),and the ventilation center deviated to the ventral side,and RtoL was decreased and the ventilation distribution deviated to the left lung(P＜0.05).Conclusion EIT can perform real-time imaging of pulmonary global and local ventilation during HP anti-G movements,and it has a great application prospect in AGSM training and monitoring.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and influencing factors of allo-HSCT in the treatment of MDS patients with ASXL1+.Methods The second-generation sequencing technique was used to detect 22 gene mutations in 247 newly diagnosed MDS patients in our hospital.The patients were divided into chemotherapy group and transplant group according to treatment style.The differences of OS and PFS between the two groups were compared,and the influencing factors of prognosis of transplant patients were analyzed.Results ASXL1+ was detected in 75 patients(30.36%),with a median mutation ratio of 42.93(18.10,58.39)%,10 received supportive treatment,43 received demethylation therapy or demethylation combined with pre-excitation therapy,and 22 received allo-HSCT.2-year PFS rate and OS rate of transplantation group were significantly higher than that of chemotherapy group(P<0.05).The 2-year OS rate in the low ASXL1 mutation load group(VAF≤42.93%)was significantly higher than that in the high ASXL1 mutation load group(VAF>42.93%)(P<0.05).In the context of allo-HSCT in patients with ASXL1+,2-year OS and PFS rates were significantly reduced in patients with RUNX1+ or ASXL1+(P<0.05);Multivariate analysis showed that high mutation load of ASXL1 or U2AF1+ were independent risk factors for OS in transplant patient(P<0.05).U2AF1+ were the risk factors for PFS(P<0.05).Conclusion allo-HSCT significantly improved the prognosis of patients with ASXL1+ MDS.High ASXL1 mutation load or U2AF1+ were independent risk factors affecting the outcome of allo-HSCT.

Fusidane-type antibiotics, represented by helvolic acid, fusidic acid and cephalosporin P

Objective:To compare the efficacy of the second generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor dasatinib combined with allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(allo-HSCT)or chemotherapy in the treatment of Ph + acute lymphoblastic leukemia (Ph + ALL). Methods:A total of 56 Ph + ALL patients received dasatinib from January 2014 to June 2018. According to whether or not allo-HSCT was performed, they were divided into transplantation group(n=22)and chemotherapy group(n=34). The total survival rate(OS), disease-free survival rate(DFS), relapse and non-recurrence mortality(NRM)were compared between two groups. Results:The 2-year OS, DFS and cumulative recurrence rates were 69.1 % vs 47.8 %, 62.2 % vs 43.1 % and 14.6 % vs 44.1 % in transplantation and chemotherapy groups respectively. Significant inter-group differences existed in 2-year DFS, DFS and cumulative recurrence rates. The value of NRM was higher in transplantation group than that in chemotherapy group(18.6 % vs 14.1 %). However, the difference was statistically insignificant( P=0.476). Conclusions:The efficacy of dasatinib plus allo-HSCT is superior to that of dasatinib plus chemotherapy in the treatment of Ph + ALL.

Fusidic acid is the only fusidane-type antibiotic that has been clinically used. However, biosynthesis of this important molecule in fungi is poorly understood. We have recently elucidated the biosynthesis of fusidane-type antibiotic helvolic acid, which provides us with clues to identify a possible gene cluster for fusidic acid ( cluster). This gene cluster consists of eight genes, among which six are conserved in the helvolic acid gene cluster except and . Introduction of the two genes into the NSAR1 expressing the conserved six genes led to the production of fusidic acid. A stepwise introduction of and revealed that the two genes worked independently without a strict reaction order. Notably, we identified two short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase genes and in the cluster, which showed converse stereoselectivity in 3-ketoreduction. This is the first report on the biosynthesis and heterologous expression of fusidic acid.

Objective To analyze the clinical significance of early lymphocyte recovery after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in acute myeloid leukemia.Methods The clinical data of 89 patients with acute myeloid leukemia undergoing allo-HSCT were retrospectively analyzed.The absolute lymphocyte count at Day 21 (ALC21) after allo-HSCT was used for representing the recovery rate of lymphocyte.And the effects of ALC21 on disease relapse,overall survival (OS),disease-free survival (DFS) and other parameters were analyzed.Results The recurrent rate of ALC21 ≥0.5 × 109/L group (high ALC21 group) was significantly lower than that of ALC21 ＜0.5× 109/L group (low ALC21 group) (19.6 ％ vs 48.5 ％,P=0.004).The 2-year OS and DFS of high ALC21 group spiked markedly as compared with low ALC21 group [(74.0 ± 6.0 ％ vs (46.5±9.5) ％,P=0.002],[(70.5 ± 6.2) ％ vs (44.9±9.3) ％,P =0.009] while viral infection rate declined markedly (37.5 ％ vs 60.6 ％,P =0.035).However,non-recurrence mortality (NRM),acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) and chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) (P =0.556) were not elevated in high ALC21 group as compared with low ALC21 group (P=0.584,P =0.08,P =0.556).Conclusions Early lymphocyte recovery after in acute myeloid leukemia patients has significant early predictive value for recurrence and long-term prognosis after allo-HSCT.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of domestic bortezomibˉbased chemotherapy for patients with multiple myeloma (MM). Methods The clinical data of 60 MM patients treated with domestic bortezomibˉbased chemotherapy regimen (the observation group) in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from April 2018 to October 2018 were retrospectively analyzed, which were compared with 112 MM patients treated with original treatment regimen (the control group) at the same hospital from November 2010 to November 2014. According to the disease stage, the patients were divided into newly diagnosed MM (NDMM) group and relapsed refractory MM (RRMM) group, and efficacy and adverse reactions of domestic bortezomib were evaluated. Results The total response rate (ORR) of the observation group was 71.7% (43/60), severe complete response (sCR) + complete response (CR) rate was 16.7% (10/60), very good partial response (VGPR) rate was 18.3% (11/60), and partial response (PR) rate was 36.7% (22/60). The ORR of NDMM group (45 cases) and RRMM group (15 cases) was 82.2% (37/45) and 40.0% (6/15), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2＝ 9.877, P < 0.05). There was no significant difference between ISS stage Ⅰ+Ⅱ and stage Ⅲ [ORR: 75.7% (28/37) vs. 65.2% (15/23), respectively; χ2＝0.764, P >0.05]. ORR and CR rates in the NDMM group and RRMM group of the observation group and the control group were not statistically different (all P>0.05). In the treatment of bortezomibˉbased chemotherapy, the common adverse reaction was peripheral neuropathy, mostly belonging to grade 1-2. Other side effects included hematocytopenia, gastrointestinal events and herpes zoster, which could be alleviated or restored to normality after supportive treatments. One patient died of pulmonary infection, respiratory failure and septic shock during the intermittent period of chemotherapy. Conclusion ORR of domestic bortezomibˉbased chemotherapy in treatment of the patients with MM is high, and the incidence of adverse reactions shows no significant increase compared with original drugs.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of maintenance treatment with low-dose decitabine after allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) for high-risk acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). Methods The data of 10 patients with high-risk ALL who received maintenance therapy with low-dose decitabine after allo-HSCT in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from July 2016 to March 2018 was collected. The incidence of post-transplant relapse and graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) and the safety of the treatment protocol were analyzed. The cumulative incidence of relapse (CIR) rate, disease-free survival (DFS) rate and overall survival (OS) rate were estimated by Kaplan-Meier method. Results Two patients relapsed and the median relapse time of these 10 patients was 575 days after transplantation. The 1-year CIR, OS and DSF rates were 16.7%, 100.0% and 83.3%, respectively. At the end of follow-up, the DFS time after transplantation of 2 patients with p53 mutation were 23 months and 11 months, respectively. There was no induction or alleviation of GVHD caused by decitabine treatment. Nine patients developed grade Ⅰ-Ⅱmyelosuppression. Three patients had unexplained thrombocytopenia after transplantation and their platelet counts recovered after decitabine treatment. Conclusion Maintenance therapy with low-dose decitabine has low hematologic toxicity without increasing GVHD, which could be a maintenance treatment option to prevent relapse after transplantation for patients with high-risk ALL.

Objective To observe the changes of learning and memory ability and the expression of GRP8,ATF4 and CHOP in the frontal lobe neurons of rats after isoflurane anesthesia.Methods Male SD aged rats were randomly divided into 4 groups with 15 in each group.Rats in ISO group received 1.5% isoflurane 2 h,SAL group received intraperitoneal injection Salubrinal(1 mg/kg),ISO+SAL group received 1.5% 2 h after intraperitoneal injection Salubrinal(1 mg/kg),C group only inhaled 30% air and oxygen mixture.Morris water maze (MWM) test was performed 24 hours after isoflurane anesthesia,and then the left frontal lobe of rats was collected,gene transcription and protein expression changes of 78-kDa glucose-regulated protein(GRP78),activating transcription factor 4(ATF4),C/EBP homologous protein(CHOP) were evaluated by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and immunofluorescence.Results Compared with the C group,the latent time of ISO group was significantly prolonged(ISO group(19.10±2.98)s vs C group (10.54±2.05)s,P<0.05);the number of times passing through the target platform of ISO group was decreased significantly(ISO group (6.78±1.47) vs Cgroup (9.03±1.69),P<0.05);protein expression level of GRP78 was significantly increased in group ISO (ISO group (965.8±86.5) vs C group(247.5±46.3),P<0.05);protein expression level of ATF4 was significantly increased in group ISO(ISO group (470±69.4) vs C group (275.4±56.3),P<0.05) protein expression level of CHOP was significantly increased in group ISO(ISO group (618.7±83.3) vs C group(174.5±71.2),P<0.05).The transcription trends of GRP78,ATF4,CHOP were consistent with their protein expression.Conclusion The decrease of short-term memory ability after isoflurane anesthesia may be related to the activation of endoplasmic reticulum stress pathway in frontal lobe neurons.
