re more common in ALL children accepting chemotherapy with CCCG-ALL-2015 regimen. The development of severe pneumonia suggests an increased risk for death in these children.Allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) is currently the only curative option for patients with X-linked agammaglobulinemia (XLA). In this study, patient 1 aged 4 years who underwent allogeneic peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (allo-PBSCT) from HLA-mismatched unrelated donor; patient 2 aged 24 years (childhood onset) with primary cutaneous acral CD8+ T cell lymphoma who underwent allo-PBSCT from haploidentical relative donor. HIV Protease inhibitor Both were treated by reduced toxicity myeloablative conditioning with post-transplantation cyclophosphamide (PTCy), anti-thymocyte globulin (ATG), methotrexate (MTX) and cyclosporine (CsA) for graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) prophylaxis. In patient 1, neutrophil and platelet engraftment were observed on day 11 post-transplantation; the donor chimerism dropped on day 90 post-transplantation, and recovered on day 150 with donor lymphocyte infusion (DLI). In patient 2, neutrophil and platelet engraftment were observed on days 20 and 87 post-transplantation respectively, with complete donor chimerism on day 30 post-transplantation. The serum levels of IgG, IgM and IgA and the percentage of CD19+ B cells in peripheral blood of patients 1 and 2 returned to normal within 2 months and more than 1 year after transplantation respectively. There was no evidence of acute GVHD for the two patients. Patient 1 developed a limited type of skin chronic GVHD after DLI, which disappeared after anti-GVHD treatment. This is the first report of successful treatment for two XLA patients using PTCy with allo-PBSCT from HLA-mismatched unrelated donor or haploidentical donor, combining with improved conditioning, which expands the pool of eligible donors for patients with XLA.Cornelia de Lange syndrome (CdLS) is a genetic syndrome with severe neurodevelopmental disorders as the main manifestation. Its clinical manifestations included mental retardation, typical facial features, intrauterine and postnatal developmental delay, and deformity in multiple organs and systems, with an incidence rate of about 1/10000 to 1/30000. International CdLS Consensus Group was established in 2017 and issued the first international consensus on CdLS, i.e., "Diagnosis and management of Cornelia de Lange syndrome first international consensus statement", in July 2018. Being developed through a modified Delphi consensus process, this consensus provides guidance on the diagnosis and management of children with CdLS. This article gives an interpretation of this consensus, aiming to help clinicians with early identification, diagnosis, standard follow-up, and management of this disease.Inadequate nutrition supply in the early stage after birth is a risk factor for the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in preterm infants, and it is also closely associated with the progression and clinical outcome of BPD. Optimized nutritional support is of great importance to reduce the incidence and severity of BPD and promote lung development and neurological prognosis. Based on the relevant studies in China and overseas, the expert consensus on BPD nutrition management is developed by the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) method. The consensus includes the following seven aspects the importance of nutrition in BPD, fluid intake, energy intake, enteral nutrition, parenteral nutrition, post-discharge nutrition, and nutrition monitoring and evaluation.
To develop a conceptual framework that can be used for the integration of community health nursing (CHN) practice, education, and research within a Nursing Centre (NC) model.

New forms of training and support are needed to equip nurses to manage the complex and costly challenges facing health care systems. The NC model provides scope to address these challenges by integrating nursing practice, education, and research. However, there is little information about how these constructs are integrated or how education is constituted within the model.

This study used an embedded single case study design across three Nursing Centres (NCs) in West Java Indonesia. Semi-structured interviews and a review of relevant documents were conducted. Interview participants were recruited purposively to select stakeholders with rich information, including clients, nurses, nursing students and lecturers who have been using the NC model, as well as the head of the co-located Community Health Centres. link2 Data was analysed using tice improvement through research and community service activities. The service learning approach was identified as appropriate because it links services with the learning process and this serves to address the interests of both practice and education institutions. The conceptual framework identified in this study can be used to improve the functionality of NCs in Indonesia and be considered for use internationally.
The aim of the study was to explore the care-seeking pathway of rural women living with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and attending a tertiary health-care facility in Odisha, India.

RA is the third leading chronic health condition and causes severe pain and immense psychosocial stress. The prevalence of RA is three to four times higher in women than in men. Furthermore, in India, women delay care seeking due to the prevailing sociocultural norms. Women report more severe symptoms and greater disability; however, there is a lack of information on their care-seeking pathways.

We conducted 113 in-depth interviews among RA patients those who visited specialists at the outpatients' Department of Rheumatology, SCB Medical College Hospital, a tertiary care hospital in Cuttack, Odisha, India. The grounded theory approaches were used for data analysis.

The key findings included physical pain and psychosocial stress in relation to RA, cultural issues in relation to RA, mapping of the health-care providers for RA, t the perceived challenge for seeking health-care, and coping strategies of patients and social supports. This study explored that the RA patients seek care from multiple providers - untrained, trained and specialist without any gatekeeping. However, the primary health centers were the first point of care for maximum patients due to accessibility and affordability. Furthermore, follow-up care is significant to prevent complication among RA patients; the primary health centers are the gateway for keeping RA patients. Hence, the availability of RA trained providers at primary health center including interprofessional care, such as physiotherapy providers, and proper referral system is essential to convalesce care-seeking pathways.
Peer-led school-based anti-smoking programs have been shown to affect the smoking behaviors of students. The aim of this study was to examine the effectiveness of a school-based peer-led live theater production advocating a smoke-free life.

This is a cross-section design study. Students from the drama club were recruited as School Health Ambassadors (SHAs). The SHAs were to involve in a theater production in advocating a smoke-free life, and were provided a health education workshop from the project team on facts relating to smoking and smoke-free life. All the students in the school were to watch the theater production as school peer audience members (SPAs). Comparison will be made between the two groups of students in their attitude and decision towards living a smoke-free life after being involved in the theater production or in watching the drama.

A total of 409 students, 21 SHAs, and 388 SPAs were included in the project. Both the SHAs and the SPAs reported confidently about their ability to resist offers or temptation to smoke, and were determined to live a smoke-free life and refrain from smoking the first cigarette.

A peer-led theater production advocating a smoke-free life shows some effects on students' attitude and decision to resist offers and the temptation to smoke, and to come to the decision to live a smoke-free life and refrain from smoking the first cigarette.

Low socioeconomic status (SES) is a barrier for cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk screening and a determinant of poor CVD outcomes. This study examined the associations between access to health-promoting facilities and participation in a CVD risk screening program among populations with low SES residing in public rental flats in Singapore.

Data from Health Mapping Exercises conducted from 2013 to 2015 were obtained, and screening participation rates of 66 blocks were calculated. Negative binomial regression was used to test for associations between distances to four nearest facilities (i.e., subsidized private clinics, healthy eateries, public polyclinics, and parks) and block participation rate in CVD screening. We also investigated potential heterogeneity in the association across regions with an interaction term between distance to each facility and region.

The analysis consisted of 2069 participants. link3 The associations were only evident in the North/North-East region for subsidized private clinic and park. Specifically, increasing distance to the nearest subsidized private clinic and park was significantly associated with lower [incidence rate ratio (IRR) = 0.88, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.80-0.98] and higher (IRR = 1.93, 95%CI 1.15-3.25) screening participation rates respectively.

Our findings could potentially inform the planning of future door-to-door screenings in urban settings for optimal prioritization of resources. To increase participation rates in low SES populations, accessibility to subsidized private clinics and parks in a high population density region should be considered.

To conduct advanced psychometric analysis of Primary Care Assessment Tool (PCAT) in Tibet and identify avenues for metric performance improvement.

Measuring progress toward high-performing primary health care can contribute to the achievement of sustainable development goals. The adult version of PCAT is an instrument for measuring patient experience, with key elements of primary care. It has been extensively used and validated internationally. However, only little information is available regarding its psychometric properties obtained based on advanced analysis.

We used data collected from 1386 primary care users in two prefectures in Tibet. First, iterative confirmatory factor analysis examined the fit of the primary care construct in the original tool. Then item response theory analysis evaluated how well the questions and individual response options perform at different levels of patient experience. Finally, multiple logistic regression modeling examined the predicative validity of primary care domains against patient satisfaction.
