Objectives: To investigate the clinical and genetic features of young Chinese patients with myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). Methods: In this cross-sectional study, anonymous questionnaires were distributed to patients with MPN patients nationwide. The respondents were divided into 3 groups based on their age at diagnosis: young (≤40 years) , middle-aged (41-60 years) , and elderly (>60 years) . We compared the clinical and genetic characteristics of three groups of MPN patients. Results: 1727 assessable questionnaires were collected. There were 453 (26.2%) young respondents with MPNs, including 274 with essential thrombocythemia (ET) , 80 with polycythemia vera (PV) , and 99 with myelofibrosis. Among the young group, 178 (39.3%) were male, and the median age was 31 (18-40) years. In comparison to middle-aged and elderly respondents, young respondents with MPN were more likely to present with a higher proportion of unmarried status (all P<0.001) , a higher education level (all P<0.001) , less comorbidity (ies) , fewer medications (all P<0.001) , and low-risk stratification (all P<0.001) . Younger respondents experienced headache (ET, P<0.001; PV, P=0.007; MF, P=0.001) at diagnosis, had splenomegaly at diagnosis (PV, P<0.001) , and survey (ET, P=0.052; PV, P=0.063) . Younger respondents had fewer thrombotic events at diagnosis (ET, P<0.001; PV, P=0.011) and during the survey (ET, P<0.001; PV, P=0.003) . JAK2 mutations were found in fewer young people (ET, P<0.001; PV, P<0.001; MF, P=0.013) ; however, CALR mutations were found in more young people (ET, P<0.001; MF, P=0.015) . Furthermore, mutations in non-driver genes (ET, P=0.042; PV, P=0.043; MF, P=0.004) and high-molecular risk mutations (ET, P=0.024; PV, P=0.023; MF, P=0.001) were found in fewer young respondents. Conclusion: Compared with middle-aged and elderly patients, young patients with MPN had unique clinical and genetic characteristics.
Objectives: To explore health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and identify its associated variables in Chinese patients with Philadelphia-negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs) . Methods: In this cross-sectional study, anonymous questionnaires were distributed to adult patients with MPNs to assess symptom burden measured by MPN-10 and HRQoL measured by Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) and the European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Core 30 (EORTC QLQ-C30) . Results: The data from 1405 respondents with MPNs, including 645 (45.9%) with essential thrombocythemia (ET) , 297 (21.1%) with polycythemia vera (PV) , and 463 (33.0%) with myelofibrosis (MF) , were analyzed. 646 (46.0%) respondents were male. The median age was 56 (range, 18-99) years. The mean MPN-10 scores were 13.0±12.7, 15.0±14.7, and 21.0±16.6 (P<0.001) , and the physical component summary (PCS) and mental component summary (MCS) scores were 48.0±8.5, 47.0±9.0, and 42.0±10.0 (P<0.001) and 51.0±11.0, 50.0±10.8, and 49.0±11.1 (P=0.002) for respondents with ET, PV, and MF, respectively. Respondents with MF reported the lowest score of physical functioning, role functioning, emotional functioning, cognitive functioning, social function, and global health status (all P<0.01) and the highest score of fatigue, pain, dyspnea, appetite loss, diarrhea, and financial problems (all P<0.05) in EORTC QLQ-C30. Multivariate analyses revealed that higher MPN-10 scores were significantly associated with lower PCS (-0.220 to -0.277, P<0.001) and MCS (-0.244 to -0.329, P<0.001) scores; increasing age (-1.923 to -4.869; all P<0.05) , lower PCS score. Additionally, comorbidity (ies) , symptom at diagnosis, splenomegaly, anemia, unknown driver gene, and higher annual out-of-pocket cost were significantly associated with lower PCS and/or MCS scores. However, age ≥ 60 years, urban household registration, concomitant medication, and receiving ruxolitinib therapy in respondents with MF were associated with higher MCS scores. Weak correlations were found between MPN-10 score (except the subscale of appetite loss and constipation) and EORTC QLQ-C30 score in majority of subscales in respondents with ET (|r| = 0.193-0.457, all P<0.001) , PV (|r| = 0.192-0.529, all P<0.01) , and MF (|r| = 0.180-0.488, all P<0.001) , respectively. Conclusions: HRQoL in patients with MPN was significantly reduced, especially in patients with MF. Sociodemographic and clinical variables were significantly associated with the HRQoL in patients with MPNs.
Objective: To assess the value of immunoglobulin heavy/light chain (HLC) immunoassay on therapeutic response in patients with multiple myeloma(MM). Methods: A total of 45 newly diagnosed MM patients were retrospectively enrolled in Peking Union Medical College Hospital from 2013 to 2016, whose 115 serum samples were consecutively collected. HLC was tested to evaluate response and compare with other methods for M protein detection. Results: ①There were 30 males and 15 females in total of whom the monoclonal immunoglobulin was IgG in 27 (IgGκ∶IgGλ 12∶15) and IgA (IgAκ∶IgAλ 9∶9) in 18. The arerage age of the studied population was 59 (range 43-80) . ② In 34 patients with serum sample at diagnosis, 32 (94.1%) had abnormal HLC ratio (rHLC) while 2 patients with IgG had normal rHLC. The percentages of abnormal rHLC was 81.8% (18/22) at partial response、50.0%(9/18) at very good complete response and 16.0%(4/25) at complete response. ③In 25 patients reaching CR, there were 13 with IgG and 12 with IgA. 4 patients equally split of IgG and IgA had abnormal rHLC at complete response. ④By monitoring the rHLC of some patients consecutively, we found that the remission of rHLC was to some extent behind the remission of SPE and IEF, or even rFLC. Conclusion: Immunoglobulin HLC detection is one feasible method for minimal residual disease detection.
Objective:Analysis on traditional Chinese medicine syndrome of 220 cases of patients with aplastic anemia(110 severe aplastic anemia and 110 light aplastic anemia)was made,hoping to explore basic syndromes of the aplastic anemia through the comparative analysis,to observe the similarities syndrome characteristics or differences between severe and light aplastic anemia,and to provide theoretical basis of Chinese medicine treatment for aplastic anemia.Methods:The retrospective analysis on the general conditions(sex,age,course of disease,peripheral blood),symptoms,syndromes and factors which may be associated with the syndromes in 220 cases of aplastic anemia patients was made.Conclusion:Deficiency of Qi,deficiency of blood,deficiency of kidney-yang and deficiency of kidney-yin are basic syndromes of aplastic anemia.While the deficiency of Qi and blood is more prominent than deficiency of yin and yang,especially in the severe aplastic anemia.Drugs for supplementing Qi and nourishing blood must be reused in treatment of traditional Chinese medicine.The frequency of intense noxious heat syndrome in severe aplastic anemia was higher than that in light aplastic anemia,and in daily life infection protection for SAA should be taken seriously attention.
Objective To observe the influence of Yiqi Yangxue Huoxue Fang on platelet parameters in the patients with refractory idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura(RITP).Methods The patients with RITP(n=40) were included into the treatment group treated Yiqi Yangxue Huoxue Fang,and other health people(n=36),into the control group.The platelet count(PLT),palteletcrit(PCT),mean platelet vojume(MVP) and platelet distribution width(PDW) in treatment group were compared with those in control group before the treatment,and were compared and observed in treatment group before and after the treatment.Results Before the treatment,PLT(P<0.01) and PCT(P<0.05) were lower and MPV and PDW were higher(P<0.05) in treatment group than those in control group.PLT and PCT increased significantly(P<0.01,P<0.05),and MPV and PDW decreased significantly(P<0.05) in treatment group after the treatment compared with those before the treatment.Conclusion Yiqi Yangxue Huoxue Fang can influence the platelet parameters like PCT,MPV and PDW besides increasing PLT in RITP patients
Objective To analyse the basic TCM syndromes of immunologic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP). Methods The hospitalization materials were retrospectively summarized in 149 patients with ITP and 49 ones with secondary thrombocytopenia, and the clinical symptoms and syndromes were analysed statistically. Results The cases of ITP onset were more in female patients than in male ones. The first three syndromes with higher occurrence frequency were, in proper order, qi deficiency (85.4%), blood stasis (44.4%) and blood deficiency (42.4%). Conclusion The main TCM syndromes of ITP include qi deficiency, blood stasis and blood deficiency. The bleeding mechanism of ITP is related to blood failing to circulate in the vessels induced by qi failing to control blood and internal stagnation of blood stasis.
Objective:To study the treatment of Acute Myeloid Leukemia by Integration of Traditional Chinese and Western medicine during remission induction.Methods:With retrospective analysis,this paper summaries the clinical effect and does comparison research on 20 new AML patients.The patients are divided into two groups according to whether taking traditional Chinese medicine,Chinese medicine and chemotherapy group(treatment group) and chemotherapy-only group(control group).This paper observes clinical treatment effect of AML patients during remission induction.By observing clinical effect(complete remission rate,effective rate and improvement of Chinese medicine syndrome),supportive treatment,chemotherapy side effects,the paper analyses whether traditional Chinese medicine has its own advantages.Results:(1) CR rate and effective rate of two groups are 50% and 60%,60% and 70% respectively.Both CR rate and effective rate of treatment group is lower than the control group,but with no significant difference.(P0.05).(2)Red blood cell transfusions for the treated group are significantly less than the control group(P0.05) during chemotherapy.Platelet transfusion and usage of Granulocyte Colony-stimulating factor for the treated group are less than the control group with no significant difference(P0.05).(3)The comparison of side-effects during chemotherapy:The liver damage incidence of the treated group is pretty lower than the one of control group,30% and 80% respectively.Two sets of data have significant difference(P0.05).Conclusion:(1) for treatment of AML,traditional Chinese medicine shows considerable advantages in supportive treatment,because it can reduce blood transfusions.(2)Traditional Chinese medicine has begun to deliver results in reducing the toxic and side effect of the chemotherapy drugs.(3) Is involvement of traditional Chinese medicine good to increasing CR rate of AML patients? This is still debatable.

Objective To investigate the anti tumor effect of IL 12 administration into the portal system in treatment of the liver metastasis in mice. Methods 1×10 5 of MCA 205 were injected into the portal vein to establish murine liver metastasis model, and the spleen was transpositioned subcutaneously for administration of IL 12 continually into the portal system. From day 3 to 7, 0 1 μg IL 12 was administered intraperitoneally or intra splenicly, while HBSS was injected intra splenicly in the control group. Tumors in the liver were examined on day 20. Results The liver weight in the IL 12 intraperitoneal treatment group (1 33±0 08 g) and in the IL 12 intra splenic treatment group (1 29±0 07 g) was significantly less than those in the HBSS group (1 92±0 17 g, P0 05). The number of metastatic nodules in the IL 12 intraperitoneal treatment group (1 53±0 58) and in the IL 12 intra splenic treatment group (0 60±0 89) was significantly less than that in the HBSS group (18 25±5 71, P0 05). Complete regression of the tumor was observed in three of six mice of IL 12 intra splenic treatment group. Conclusion Local administration of IL 12 into the portal system would be a useful strategy for the liver metastasis treatment.
原发性胃肠道淋巴瘤(primary gastrointestinal lymphoma, PGL)的定义是具有明显胃肠道症状或病变,同时组织学证明病变为原发于胃肠道的淋巴瘤[1].Isaacson 和 Wright 提出粘膜相关淋巴组织(mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue, MALT)的概念[2],即与粘膜相关的淋巴组织可以发生淋巴瘤.胃肠道是结外与粘膜相关的最大淋巴器官,MALT淋巴瘤多见于Peyers结、阑尾、支气管粘膜.这一新的淋巴瘤组织学分型已经被广泛接受,从而使我们对于PGL的定义有了新的认识.
