RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate the long-term health-related quality of life (QOL) in pediatric patients with acute leukemia after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and to analyze potential influence factors.Methods:Patients with acute leukemia aging 8-18 years who received HSCT in the Hematology Oncology Center of Beijing Children′s Hospital from June 2009 to June 2012 with more than 80 months survival postoperatively were recruited.All of them were subjected to a short-term QOL survey in 2013.PedsQL? Transplantation Module 3.0 in Chinese mandarin version was completed.QOL data and influence factors were analyzed.Results:Forty-one patients completed the questionnaires, involving 32 males and 9 females with the mean age of(14.29±2.72) years.The mean scores of overall long-term QOL after HSCT were above 75 (total scores: 100), which was above the average.The age, disease status before transplantation, donor sources, post-transplant complications and the parental education level were the influential factors for the long-term QOL in pediatric patients with acute leukemia at post-HSCT, which could affect a certain dimension in QOL.Conclusions:The overall long-term QOL of pediatric patients with acute leukemia who survived for more than 80 months at post-HSCT is acceptable, which is significantly better than the short-term QOL after 4 months of HSCT.The age, disease status before transplantation, donor sources, post-transplant complications and the education level of parents could affect a certain dimension of QOL.
RESUMO
Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(HSCT),as an effective method to improve the survival rate of children with hematologic malignancies and immunodeficiency disorders,has attracted more and more attention. However,the researches of HSCT mainly focused on physical factors at home and abroad,while the researches on psy-chosocial factors have gradually increased in recent years.According to the domestic and foreign researches show that children post HSCT have different degrees psychosocial problems in different periods.Early recognition and timely inter-vention on the psychosocial problems of HSCT children can improve the compliance,the quality of life and the progno-sis.
RESUMO
To train self-learning ability,clinical reasoning and comprehensive analytical ability of clinical medical postgraduates,we introduced the classic cases from the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) and made the coherent learning method of Learn classic cases-report clinical cases-write case reports.Students were required to learn the classic cases of NEJM independently,to report clinical cases based on classic cases' level and to write a high level case report.We encouraged students to learn independently and to learn to use it.The practice has proved that the coherent learning method is a gradual and systematic learning method,which can train clinical medical postgraduates' all-round abilities and help them to grow up to qualified doctors.
RESUMO
Objective To study the expression of HOXB9 gene in Hela cells,Mocoy cells, SP2/0 cells and U251 cells. Methods The expression of HOXB9 gene was detected by semi-quantitative RT-PCR method. Results Hela cell and U251 cell expressed HOXB9 gene, which SP2/0 cell and Mocoy cell didn't express it. Conclusion The expression of HOXB9 gene was different in different cells.
