Purpose To investigate the risk factors of severe hypocalcemia after ultrasound-guided thermal ablation for secondary hyperparathyroidism.Materials and Methods A retrospective case-control study was used to study 91 patients with uremia complicated with secondary hyperparathyroidism in the First People's Hospital of Yulin from May 2019 to May 2023.All patients underwent ultrasound-guided thermal ablation and were divided into severe hypocalcemia group(SH)and non-SH group according to postoperative blood calcium levels.The difference of clinical data between the two groups was compared,and the independent risk factors of SH were investigated by multivariate Logistic regression analysis.Results A total of 317 glands were ablated in 49 cases of microwave ablation and 42 cases of radiofrequency ablation.SH occurred in 57 cases(62.64%)after ablation.The comparison of clinical data between the two groups showed that there were significant differences in the preoperative intact parathyroid hormone(iPTH),decline rate of iPTH 1 d,preoperative serum alkaline phosphatase,the proportion of parathyroid glands≥4 and the total gland volume between the two groups(all P<0.05).Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was used to obtain the best cut-off point of iPTH 1 d decline rate,the result was 74.59%,the area under the curve was 0.866(95%CI 0.787-0.945)(P<0.05),the sensitivity was 84.2%,and the specificity was 78.1%.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative alkaline phosphatase(OR=1.015,95%CI 1.005-1.025,P=0.030)and decline rate of iPTH 1 d≥74.59%(OR=30.423,95%CI 5.938-155.858,P<0.001)and parathyroid glands≥4(OR=4.355,95%CI 1.027-18.469,P=0.046)were independent risk factors for postoperative SH(all P<0.05).Conclusion Preoperative alkaline phosphatase and decline rate of iPTH 1 d≥74.59%and the number of parathyroid glands≥4 are independent risk factors for SH after thermal ablation.

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 observe the risk factors of recurrence after ultrasound-guided thermal ablation for treating uremia secondary hyperparathyroidism(SHPT).Methods Totally 59 patients with uremia SHPT who underwent ultrasound-guided thermal ablation were enrolled,including 23 cases with(relapse group)and 36 without SHPT recurrence(non relapsed group).Clinical data were compared between groups,univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed to screen independent risk factors of SHPT recurrence.Results There were significant differences of serum free thyroxine(FT4),urea,intact parathyroid hormone(iPTH)1 day after ablation,1 day decrease rate of iPTH,the maximum diameter of the largest nodule,ablation time,total ablation energy,energy to volume ratio and the proportion of 1 day decrease rate of iPTH≤90%between groups(all P＜0.05).Higher urea,lower energy to volume ratio and 1 day decrease rate of iPTH≤90%were all independent risk factors of SHPT recurrence(all P＜0.05).Conclusion Higher urea,lower energy to volume ratio and 1 day decrease rate of iPTH≤90%were independent risk factors of recurrence after ultrasound-guided thermal ablation for treating uremia SHPT.

The glymphatic system plays a pivotal role in maintaining cerebral homeostasis. Chronic cerebral hypoperfusion, arising from small vessel disease or carotid stenosis, results in cerebrometabolic disturbances ultimately manifesting in white matter injury and cognitive dysfunction. However, whether the glymphatic system serves as a potential therapeutic target for white matter injury and cognitive decline during hypoperfusion remains unknown. Here, we established a mouse model of chronic cerebral hypoperfusion via bilateral common carotid artery stenosis. We found that the hypoperfusion model was associated with significant white matter injury and initial cognitive impairment in conjunction with impaired glymphatic system function. The glymphatic dysfunction was associated with altered cerebral perfusion and loss of aquaporin 4 polarization. Treatment of digoxin rescued changes in glymphatic transport, white matter structure, and cognitive function. Suppression of glymphatic functions by treatment with the AQP4 inhibitor TGN-020 abolished this protective effect of digoxin from hypoperfusion injury. Our research yields new insight into the relationship between hemodynamics, glymphatic transport, white matter injury, and cognitive changes after chronic cerebral hypoperfusion.

Retrospective analysis was performed on 1 child with silent inactivation (SI) of asparaginase (ASNas) who was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and treated in the First Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University in October 2019.The patient was a 9 years and 3 months old boy who was diagnosed as ALL accompanied with late bone marrow relapse.After pegylated Escherichia coli-Asparaginase (PEG-ASNase) was given, he did not have the expected treatment-related adverse reactions, including hyperammonemia, hypofibrinogenemia, and the low activation of antithrombin Ⅲ (ATⅢ). The plasma asparagine (ASN) concentration failed to meet the depletion criteria and the ASNase activity was 64.5 U/L.Therefore, the SI of ASNase was confirmed.Erwinase was used to replace PEG-ASNase, the lowest level of ATⅢ was 33%, and the lowest level of fibrinogen was 1.20 g/L.Hyperammonemia and decreased ASN were also observed, and the ASNase activity was 1 813.0 U/L.All the above suggested that when, SI occurred, the replacement by Erwinase was effective.The ASNase activity should be monitored in ALL patients who were treated with ASNase.Monitoring the treatment-related adverse reactions such as hyperammonia and coagulation disorders closely has important implications to the SI of ASNase when the detection of ASNase activity was unavailable.

Objective:To understand the sleep quality and mental health status of nurses in public health emergencies, and analyze the correlation between them.Methods:A total of 128 first-line nursing staff participating in public health emergencies on February 22-23, 2020 in Tianjin Beichen Hospital, Tianjin First Central Hospital, Tianjin Fourth Central Hospital were investigated by the general data questionnaire, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), and Symptom Checklist 90 (SCL-90).Results:70.3%(90/128) of nursing staff had poor sleep quality, and the total score of PSQI was (9.71±4.01) points, which was statistically significant compared with the domestic norm ( t value was 16.479, P<0.01). The total score of SCL-90 was 1.59±0.52, which was statistically significant compared with the domestic norm ratio ( t value was 4.505, P<0.01). One-way ANOVA showed that the nursing staff's age had a significant impact on sleep quality, and the difference was statistically significant ( F value was 4.092, P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the Pittsburgh sleep quality scale index scores and symptom self-assessment scale and somatization, force, sensitive interpersonal relationship, depression, anxiety, hostile, terrorist, paranoia, and psychosis were positively correlated( r values were 0.292-0.444, P< 0.01). Conclusions:The sleep quality and mental health status of nurses in public health emergencies are poor, and the sleep quality is correlated with mental health status.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of standardized bowel preparation and nursing procedures in patients with colon disease underwent full abdominal CT examination.Methods:A total of 281 inpatients who were diagnosed as "colon tumors" and underwent full-abdominal CT examinations from January 2016 to December 2017 were selected. From January to December 2016, 153 patients were included in the study, which is the pre-implementation group; from January to December 2017, 128 patients were included in the study, all of whom received standardized bowel preparation and nursing procedures, and were the post-implementation group. Compare and observe the differences in the cleanliness, intestinal filling and CT image quality of patients before and after the intervention measures.Results:After the implementation of standardized nursing procedures, the proportion of patients with good intestinal cleanliness was 71.09% (91/128), which was higher than the pre-implementation of 33.33% (51/153) ( χ2 value was 40.79, P<0.001). The proportion of patients with sub-intestinal preparations also decreased ( P<0.05). The proportion of patients with good intestinal filling in the post-implementation group was 75.00% (96/128), which was higher than 42.48% (65/153) in the pre-implementation group ( χ2 value was 42.63, P<0.001). After the implementation of standardized nursing procedures, the image quality rate of patients with whole abdominal CT was 90.63% (116/128), which was higher than the pre-implementation 32.68% (50/153) ( χ2 value was 98.34, P<0.001). Conclusion:The standardized nursing process can improve the quality of bowel preparation and significantly improve the image quality of abdominal CT examination.

Objective:Endoplasmic reticulum stress(ERS)was used as the research emphasis to further investigate the mechanisms of apoptosis of FLT3-ITD-mutated leukemia cells and decreased expression of FLT3-ITD mutated protein induced by all-trans retinoic acid(ATRA).Methods:FLT3-ITD-mutated leukemia cell lines(MV4-11 and MOLM13)were treated with ATRA. Flow cytometry was conducted to assess cell apoptosis. Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR(RT-qPCR)and Western blot were used to detect the expression of ERS-related and autophagy-related genes and protein, respectively.Results:A low-dose ATRA further increased FLT3-ITD cells and ERS levels. ATRA acted on the ERS-related PERK/eif2ɑ signaling pathway and continued to increase the ERS of FLT3-ITD cells, resulting in an upregulation of apoptotic gene CHOP expression. After the treatment with ATRA, FLT3-ITD protein in FLT3-ITD cells was decreased. Of the two main ERS-related protein degradation pathways, ER-associated degradation(ERAD)and ER-activated autophagy(ERAA), the expression of ERAD-related protein ATF6 in FLT3-ITD cells was not significantly changed on ATRA, whereas the expression of ERAA-related proteins Atg7 and Atg5 were significantly increased.Conclusions:ATRA further raises the ERS level of FLT3-ITD cells continuously by activating the ERS-related PERK/eif2ɑ signal pathway and induces FLT3-ITD protein autophagy degradation through ERAA pathway, which induces apoptosis of FLT3-ITD-mutated leukemia cells. These results provide preliminary evidence on the use of ATRA in the treatment of refractory leukemia with FLT3-ITD.

Objective:To discuss treatment of complete response cases after neoadjuvant radiotherapy in rectal cancer. Methods:This retrospective study analyzed clinical data of 84 rectal cancer cases with pre-operative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy in our hospital from January 2010 to Augnst 2014. Results:After neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy, 33 patients presented clinically complete response at a rate of 39.3%. After post-operative pathologic examination, among clinically complete response cases, six cases exhibited patho-logically complete responses at a rate of 18.2%. No recurrence or disease progression occurred within 12-36 months of post-operative follow up. Conclusion:Neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy can significantly lower tumor stage and promote clinically complete remission of some patients. However, for clinically complete remission cases, further radical surgery should be provided.
