Chronic lymphocytic leukemia(CLL)is one of small B-cell lymphomas and leukemias,characterized as a clonal disease of mature B cells.The disease is remarkably heterogeneous,with the majority of patients having an indolent course,yet they are currently incurable.Abnormal signaling pathways are indispensable in the pathogenesis of CLL.In CLL,the common abnormalities of signaling pathways include B-cell receptor(BCR)signaling,apoptosis,nuclear factor kappa B(NF-κB)signaling and Notch signaling.According to the target in signaling pathways,a series of targeted drugs,such as Bruton's tyrosine kinase(BTK)inhibitors(ibrutinib,zanubrutinib),phosphorylate phosphoinositide 3-kinase(PI3K)inhibitor(duvelisib)and B-cell leukemia/lymphoma 2(BCL2)inhibitor(venetoclax),which have significantly changed the prognosis of patients in clinic.Other targeted drugs,such as fenebrutinib,nemtabrutinib and umbralisib,as well as chimeric antigen receptor T-cell(CAR-T)therapy developed in the field of immuno-oncology and T cell engineering,are currently under trial,with more personalized treatment modalities being explored,which may become potential drug targets in the future.In this paper,relevant literature of CLL was reviewed,and recent research progress in molecular pathogenesis and targeted therapies of chronic lymphocytic leukemia was reviewed.

Objective To analyze the cognition level of health care workers(HCWs)and the management status of various levels of medical institutions towards allergy reactions to commonly used antimicrobial agents.Methods HCWs and clinical pharmacists who were related to the diagnosis and treatment of antimicrobial agents in 14 medical institutions of city-level and autonomous prefectures in Gansu Province were randomly selected for a questionnaire survey.The survey contents included respondents'basic information,criteria for judging antimicrobial allergy,awareness on procedures related to antimicrobial allergy,and antimicrobial management level of different levels of medical institutions.Results A total of 8 670 valid questionnaires from HCWs were collected,including 3 300 phy-sicians,5 024 nurses and 328 pharmacists.160,775,2 123 and 5 612 HCWs were with senior,associate,interme-diate and junior professional titles,respectively.87.66％of the HCWs received relevant training on antimicrobial management in the past two years,the proportion of HCWs from different levels of medical institutions who have received training on antimicrobial management in the past two years was statistically significant different(x2=42.668,P＜0.001).HCWs with senior professional titles had the highest proportion of receiving relevant training(93.75％),there was a statistically significant difference in the proportion of receiving antimicrobial management training among HCWs with different professional titles in the past two years(x2=69.782,P＜0.001).50.98％of HCWs were not clear about penicillin allergy,and most of whom were with junior professional titles,accounting for 68.52％.25.19％of HCWs expressed uncertainty about whether patients with penicillin allergy could use cephalosporins,225 of whom were with associate professional titles,accounting for 29.03％of the total number of HCWs with associate profe-ssional titles.6.11％of HCWs had no experience in skin test procedure;46.94％of HCWs expressed that their medical institutions had no or unclear about whether their medical institutions had an antimicrobial allergy assess-ment team.Conclusion HCWs'judgment on allergy reactions to commonly used antimicrobial agents and aware-ness on antimicrobial application is not high enough,and the overall management level of antimicrobial allergy in all levels of medical institutions is poor.The popularity of antimicrobial allergy assessment teams is not high,and there is an urgent need to strengthen supervision,management,training,et al.

Objective To explore the protective mechanism of honey-processed Hedysari Radix in regulating intestinal mucosal injury in rats with spleen qi deficiency.Methods The three-factor composite modeling method of bitter cold diarrhea,overwork and hunger and satiety disorder was used to construct a spleen qi deficiency model rats.After the model was successfully made,they were randomly divided into model group,honey-processed Hedysari Radix group and probiotic group,with 15 animals in each group.Another 15 normal rats were taken as the blank group.The honey-processed Hedysari Radix group was given 12.6 g·kg-1 water decoction of honey-processed Hedysari Radix by gavage,the probiotics group was given Bifidobacterium Lactobacillus triple viable tablets suspension at a dose of 0.625 g·kg-1,and the blank group and the model group were given the same dose of distilled water.The rats in the four groups were administered once a day for 15 days.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect diamine oxidase(DAO)in serum,D-lactic acid(D-LA),secretory immunoglobulin A factor,and Western blotting was used to detect the expression levels of AMP-activated protein kinase(AMPK),zonula occludens-1(ZO-1)and occludin in colon tissues.Results The serum levels of DAO in the blank group,model group,honey-processed Hedysari Radix group and probiotic group were(138.93±9.78),(187.95±12.90),(147.21±6.92)and(166.47±3.37)pg·mL-1;the contents of D-LA were(892.23±49.17),(1 099.84±137.64),(956.56±86.04)and(989.61±51.75)μg·L-1;the contents of SIgA in colon tissues were(14.04±1.42),(11.47±2.39),(11.84±1.49)and(12.93±1.65)μg·mL-1;the relative expression levels of ZO-1 protein in colon tissues were 1.18±0.11,0.42±0.04,0.77±0.05 and 0.95±0.07;the relative expression levels of occludin protein were 1.35±0.31,0.61±0.17,1.19±0.19 and 0.88±0.13;the relative expression levels of AMPK protein were 0.91±0.02,0.35±0.09,0.74±0.08 and 0.59±0.11.Compared with the model group,there were significant differences in the serum content of DAO and D-LA,SIgA content in colon,and the content of ZO-1,occludin and AMPK protein in the honey-processed Hedysari Radix group(P＜0.01,P＜0.05).Conclusion Honey-processed Hedysari Radix can enhance the protective effect on the intestinal mucosa of rats with spleen qi deficiency by regulating the expression of related inflammatory cytokines,intestinal mucosal upper cell enzymes and tight junction proteins in rats with spleen qi deficiency.

Objective:To describe the epidemiological characteristics and trends of leukemia incidence in Qidong between 1972 and 2021, and provide guidelines for prevention and control measures and strategies.Methods:The cancer registry data was collected and analyzed on leukemia incidence during 1972—2021 in Qidong by sex, age and time. Crude incidence rate (CR), China age-standardized rate (ASRC), world age-standardized rate (ASRW), and average annual change percentage (AAPC) was calculated by Joinpoint software. Age-period-cohort (APC) model was used to analyze the influence of age, period and birth cohort on the changes in the incidence trend of leukemia patients.Results:From 1972 to 2021, there were 2 948 patients with leukemia in Qidong, accounting for 2.00% of all cancer new cases, CR of leukemia was 5.26/10 5, ASRC was 4.34/10 5, ASRW was 4.35/10 5. The truncated incidence of 35—64 years old was 5.29/10 5, the cumulative incidence rate between the ages of 0 and 74 years old was 0.40%, the cumulative risk was 0.40%. There were 1 608 male patients, the CR, ASRC, and the ASRW were 5.81/10 5, 4.88/10 5 and 4.85/10 5. The number of female patients were 1 340, and the CR, ASRC, and the ASRW were 4.71/10 5, 3.86/10 5 and 3.91/10 5, respectively. Temporal trends indicated significant upward trends in ASRC among both gender, males and females with AAPC values of 1.41% ( P＜0.001), 1.15% ( P＜0.001), and 1.73% ( P＜0.001), respectively. The results of the APC model showed that the average net drift value of leukemia incidence in all age groups was 1.57% (95% CI, 1.24%-1.89%), and the highest value of local drift was 3.20% (95% CI, 1.63%-4.78%) in the 80~ years old group. The incidence of leukemia increased with age. With the passage of time, the risk of leukemia incidence increased gradually compared with the rate ratio of leukemia incidence (risk ratio [ RR], 1.00) in 1992—1996, the RR of leukemia incidence increased from 0.70 during 1972—1976 to 1.57 during 2017—2021. The later the cohort was born, the greater the risk of leukemia incidence compared with the relative risk of leukemia incidence ( RR, 1.00) in 1952—1956 cohort, the RR of leukemia incidence increased from 0.24 in the 1892—1896 cohort to 2.73 in the 2017—2021 cohort. Conclusions:The incidence of the leukemia has presented a rising trend in the past fifty years. Leukemia incidence increased with age, and the period and cohort effects on the risk of incidence increase. Further research is needed to investigate the risk factors related to leukemia.

This study was aimed at understanding the trends in,and scope of,severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome(SFTS)in Nanjing,analyzing the spatial distribution pattern,detecting high incidence cluster areas and key popula-tions,and scientifically guiding prevention and control strategies and measures.We obtained data on SFTS cases from 2010 to 2023 in Nanjing from the China Disease Control and Prevention Information System,and described the time,popu-lation,and spatial distribution characteristics.We used joinpoint regression to calculate the annual percentage change(APC)in incidence,then used FleXScan spatial clustering scan analysis to explore spatial clustering areas at the street level.A total of 507 SFTS cases were reported from 2010 to 2023 in Nanjing.The APC was 31.8％(95％CI:22.5％-41.9％,P＜0.001),and the reported incidence in 2023 was 1.42/100 000(134 cases).The seasonal indices from May to August were 2.7,2.1,3.0,and 1.3,respectively,accounting for 76.1％of the total cases.The median age was 66(IQR:55,73)years,which gradually increased from 59 years in 2010-2011 to 68 in 2022-2023(P＜0.001);94.1％of cases were in individuals 45 years or older.Farmers,homemakers/unemployed individuals,and retirees accounted for 90.1％.The epidemic area increased from 11 streets in four districts in 2010-2011 to 58 streets in 11 dis-tricts in 2022-2023.Except for 2012-2013,global spatial autocorrelation analysis showed positive Moran's I values(0.224-0.526,P＜0.001),and FlexScan scan indicated that several streets in Lishui District and Jiangning District were the most likely clusters.Four streets in Pukou District were the secondary clusters from 2018 to 2023,and three streets in Luhe District in 2022-2023 were the secondary clusters(all P＜0.05).The reported incidence of SFTS in Nanjing showed a rapid upward trend,with spread of epidemic areas.The spatial distribution pattern was clustered.Strengthened training in diagnosis and treatment technology and detection ability of medical institutions,surveillance in high-incidence areas,tracing of case flow,and health education of tick and disease prevention knowledge are recommended.

Aim To investigate the effect of Huazhuo Jiedu Yikui decoction(HJYD)on Th1/Th2 balance,stress response and intestinal mucosal in rats with ul-cerative colitis.Methods Wistar rats of SPF grade were randomly divided into six groups:control group,model group,HJYD low,medium and high dose groups(1.25,2.5,5 kg·L-1),and positive me-salazine group(0.05 kg·L-1).Except for the con-trol group,the rats in other groups were established in-to ulcerative colitis animal models and were intragastri-cally administered with drug.TNF-α,IL-8,IL-13,IL-10,IFN-γ and IL-4 were detected by ELISA.The levels of SOD,MDA and GSH-Px were detected by re-lated kits.The pathological morphology of intestinal tissue was observed using HE staining and the score was calculate.The apoptosis rate of intestinal epithelial cells was detected by TUNEL method.The protein lev-els of NF-κB,TLR4,MyD88,Bcl-2 and Bax in intes-tinal tissue were detected by Western blot.Results Compared with the model group,the levels of TNF-α,IL-8,IL-13,MDA,IFN-γ,pathological score,intes-tinal epithelial cell apoptosis rate,NF-κB,TLR4,MyD88 and Bax in the HJYD groups were reduced(P＜0.05),and the levels of IL-10,IL-4,SOD,GSH-Px and Bcl-2 were raised(P＜0.05).Conclu-sions HJYD can significantly inhibit oxidative stress and inflammatory response in rats with ulcerative coli-tis,promote Th1/Th2 balance,and play a protective role in intestinal mucosa.The mechanism is related to the inhibition of NF-κB/TLR4/MyD88 signaling path-way.

Background/Aims: Cholestatic liver diseases including primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) are associated with active hepatic fibrogenesis, which ultimately progresses to cirrhosis. Activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) are the main fibrogenic effectors in response to cholangiocyte damage. JCAD regulates cell proliferation and malignant transformation in nonalcoholic steatoheaptitis-associated hepatocellular carcinoma (NASH-HCC). However, its participation in cholestatic fibrosis has not been explored yet. Methods: Serial sections of liver tissue of PBC patients were stained with immunofluorescence. Hepatic fibrosis was induced by bile duct ligation (BDL) in wild-type (WT), global JCAD knockout mice (JCAD-KO) and HSC-specific JCAD knockout mice (HSC-JCAD-KO), and evaluated by histopathology and biochemical tests. In situ-activated HSCs isolated from BDL mice were used to determine effects of JCAD on HSC activation. Results: In consistence with staining of liver sections from PBC patients, immunofluorescent staining revealed that JCAD expression was identified in smooth muscle α-actin (α-SMA)-positive fibroblast-like cells and was significantly up-regulated in WT mice with BDL. JCAD deficiency remarkably ameliorated BDL-induced hepatic injury and fibrosis, as documented by liver hydroxyproline content, when compared to WT mice with BDL. Histopathologically, collagen deposition was dramatically reduced in both JCAD-KO and HSC-JCAD-KO mice compared to WT mice, as visualized by Trichrome staining and semi-quantitative scores. Moreover, JCAD deprivation significantly attenuated in situ HSC activation and reduced expression of fibrotic genes after BDL. Conclusions JCAD deficiency effectively suppressed hepatic fibrosis induced by BDL in mice, and the underlying mechanisms are largely through suppressed Hippo-YAP signaling activity in HSCs.
