Microfluidic Functionality involving Lignin/Chitosan Nanoparticles for that pH-Responsive Supply associated with Anticancer Medications.
This method provides a convenient platform for studying the functional effects of the isomers of unsaturated lipids in pathological tissues.Metal thiophosphates are a large family of compounds that received far less attention than conventional chalcogenides. Recently, however, metal thiophosphates arouse research interest in regard of energy harvesting and conversion due to their structural and chemical diversity. Nevertheless, there remain many unexplored metal thiophosphates. Here, we performed a comprehensive investigation on the electronic and optoelectronic properties of a series of metal thiophosphates using first-principles calculations and identified several highly promising compounds as p-type transparent conductors, photovoltaic absorbers, and single visible-light-driven photocatalysts for water splitting. Our investigation reveals the intrinsic features of a series of typical metal thiophosphates, identifies their new optoelectronic applications, and validates that metal thiophosphates are promising materials deserving exploration.Objective To summarize the clinical characteristics of an early death in patients with de novo acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) , analyze the risk factors and direct causes of early death, and perform survival analysis. Methods The clinical data of 368 patients with de novo APL in three centers (First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, Soochow Guangci Hospital, and Soochow Hopes Hospital of Hematology) during January 2011-December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical characteristics of patients who suffered hemorrhagic early death and non-hemorrhagic early death were compared. The risk factors for early death, survival, and prognosis of patients with APL were analyzed. Results Among the 368 de novo APL patients, 31 died early with an early mortality rate of 8.4%. The median time from diagnosis to death was 7 (0-29) d. On comparison of the clinical characteristics of patients with early death and non-early death and subsequent multivariate analysis using a logistic regression model, it wahen 50 years old was 79.3% vs 94.2%, P=0.000; the 2-year DFS rate was 92.3% vs 98.1%, P=0.023. The respective 2-year OS rates of high-risk and non-high-risk patients were 77.3% and 96.7% (P=0.000) and the respective 2-year DFS rates were 94.0% and 98.4% (P=0.139) . Conclusion Age and WBC are independent prognostic factors for early death. We observed a difference in early mortality between high-risk and low-risk APL, but no difference in DFS rate.Objective To summarize the clinical characteristics and prognosis of 51 patients with Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (WM) and evaluate the efficacy and adverse reactions of ibrutinib in the treatment of WM. Methods We carried out a single-center retrospective study, including 51 patients with WM of our single center from November 2008 to October 2019. Results The median age at diagnosis was 65 years with a male-to-female ratio of 2.64∶1. There were 9 (18%) , 21 (41%) , and 21 (41%) ISSWM stage low-, intermediate- and high-risk patients identified, respectively. A total of 27 (73%) patients harbored MYD88(L265P) mutation. The median follow-up time was 38.6 (0.3-120.0) months, the median progression free survival was 46.4 months, and the median overall survival was not reached. The overall remission and major remission rates of patients who received ibrutinib were 87% and 80%, respectively. The median time to achieve at least partial remission of patients treated with ibrutinib was 8 weeks, which was earlier than those treated with other drugs (P less then 0.05) . Conclusion WM is often seen in elderly men. MYD88(L265P) had a high frequency in WM. The findings of our study validate the efficacy of ibrutinib monotherapy. Even in patients with advanced age and at high risk of ISSWM, the overall remission rate and major remission rate are high. Ibrutinib is a safe and effective therapy because of its rapid onset and rare serious adverse reactions.Objective To explore dasatinib-related pulmonary adverse events in patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) . Methods We retrospectively analyzed the incidence of pleural effusion (PE) and pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in patients with CML treated with dasatinib at Peking University People's Hospital from April 2008 to January 2020. Results A total of 280 patients were collected. The median dasatinib treatment time was 26 (1-142) months. Ninety (32.1%) patients developed PE, including 40 (44.4%) in grade 1, 44 (48.9%) in grade 2, and 6 (6.7%) in grade 3. The incidence of PE increased gradually with the prolongation of treatment. The multivariate analysis showed that increasing age (every 10 years, HR=1.6; P less then 0.001) , advanced phase when starting dasatinib therapy (HR=2.2; P=0.008) , and cardiovascular comorbidity (ies) (HR=1.9; P=0.018) were significantly associated with developing PE. this website The advanced phase when starting dasatinib therapy (HR=3.4; P=0.001) , interval from diagnosis to taking TKI for ≤6 months (HR=2.2; P=0.015) , and dose less then 100 mg/d when PE was found (HR=3.1; P=0.001) were associated with more severe PE. PE relieved or disappeared after intervention in half of the patients. Among 60 patients with symptoms of cough, chest tightness, and shortness of breath, 49 underwent ultrasonic cardiography; 8 (16.3%) had high probability of PAH, approximately 3.5% in all patients; and 6 (75.0%) of them had PE. PAH was reversible. There was no difference in the incidences of PE and PAH between branded and Chinese generic dasatinib. Conclusion PE is a common dasatinib-related pulmonary adverse event, and PAH is rare in patients with CML. The identification of individuals with high risk, close monitoring, and timely intervention may help to alleviate PE and PAH.Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics, etiology, and prognosis of familial acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with germline CEBPA mutation and improve the understanding of familial leukemia. Methods The age of onset, clinical characteristics, outcome, and prognosis of a family of patients with AML were investigated, and the family tree of the cases was displayed. Bone marrow and oral mucosal cells were collected from the proband, and peripheral blood was collected from the relatives of the proband. Gene mutation was detected by gene sequencing technology. Results A total of 10 patients in this family were diagnosed with acute leukemia, including 4 males and 6 females, with a median age of 9 (3-48) years. Of the 10 patients, six died. Among them, 4 patients did not receive treatment, 1 patient survived 3 years after chemotherapy and died of relapse, and one patient died 2 years after receiving traditional Chinese medicine and supportive treatment. Four patients are alive. One patient has survived 15 years through chemotherapy, and three patients have survived with chemotherapy combined with hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and the survival time was 6, 9, and 28 months at the end of follow-up.
