RESUMO
Objective:To explore the efficacy and prognostic factors of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in the treatment of relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML).Methods:The clinical data of 35 patients with relapsed/refractory AML treated with allo-HSCT in the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University from June 2011 to October 2018 was retrospectively analyzed. The overall survival (OS), disease-free survival (DFS), graft versus host disease (GVHD) incidence, transplantation related mortality and recurrence rate were calculated, and the risk factors affecting prognosis were analyzed.Results:Hematopoietic reconstitution was obtained in all patients after transplantation. The 100 d incidence of grade Ⅱ-Ⅳ acute GVHD was (22.9±7.7)%, and the 3-year incidence of chronic GVHD was (49.5±10.60)%. The median follow-up time after transplantation was 14.1 months (4.2-89.4 months). In all cases, 18 cases survived (including 16 cases of DFS), and 17 cases died. Fourteen cases relapsed, and the median recurrence time was 4.7 months (2.9-32.4 months). The 3-year OS rate and DFS rate were (44.4±9.3)% and (43.0±9.5)%, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that the non-remission disease before transplantation, poor genetic risk grade before transplantation and recurrence after transplantation were the risk factors for OS (all P < 0.05). The 3-year OS rates in complete remission before transplantation group and non-remission before transplantation group were (63.2±12.0)% and (15.7±12.8)% ( P = 0.025), the 3-year DFS rates were (62.2±12.3)% and (15.3±12.7)% ( P = 0.028), and the 3-year recurrence rates were (28.2±10.7)% and (80.6±15.7)% ( P = 0.057). The 3-year recurrence rate in genetic high-risk group was higher than that in middle-risk group and low-risk group [100.0%, (45.0±12.1)% and (14.3±13.2)%, P = 0.045]. The 3-year tansplantation related mortality was (18.7±7.7)%. Conclusions:Allo-HSCT is an effective method for salvage treatment of relapsed/refractory AML, and recurrence is the main factor affecting survival. Reducing tumor load before transplantation is very important for reducing recurrence and improving curative effect.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the efficacy of modified VDLP (vincristine + daunorubicin + L-asparaginase + prednisone) for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in elderly patients and its adverse reactions.Methods 31 elderly patients diagnosed as ALL at the initial visit from Jan.2009 to Dec.2014 were randomly divided into the experiment group (n=16) and the control group (n=15).Patients in the control group received traditional VDLP chemotherapy (vincristine 2 mg at 1,8,15 days;daunorubicin 30-40 mg/m2 at 1,2,15,16 days;L-asparaginase 6 000-10 000 U at 11,14,17,20 days;prednisone 1 mg/kg at 1 to 14 days),whereafter underwent a gradual dose reduction and drug withdrawal within 1-2 weeks.Patients in the experiment group received the modified VDLP chemotherapy (vincristine 2mg at 1,8,15 days;daunorubicin 30-40 mg/m2 at 1-3 days;L-asparaginase 6 000-10 000 U at 11,14,17,20 days;prednisone 1 mg/kg at 1 to 14 days),whereafter underwent a gradual dose reduction and drug withdrawal within 1-2 weeks.The complete response (CR) rate and complications were recorded.Results The CR rates were 53.3％ in modified VDLP group and 58.3％ in VDLP group,and there was no statistically significant difference between two groups (P ＞ 0.05).The treatment-related mortality and the incidence of severe infection had significant differences between the modified VDLP and VDLP groups (6.3％ vs.46.3％,31.3％ vs.66.7％,both P＜0.05).Conclusions Compared with VDLP,the modified VDLP is more tolerable and suitable for the elderly patients with ALL.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the diagnosis,treatment,risk factors and prognosis factors of postpancreaticoduodenectomy hemorrhage (PPH).Methods The retrospective case-control study was adopted.The clinical data of 703 patients who underwent pancreatoduodenectomy at Hospital 401 of the People's Liberation Army from January 2008 to July 2013 were collected.Standard pancreatoduodenectomy was carried out for the malignant tumors of the head of pancreas or ampulla,pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy was operated for the benign tumor or the duodenal papilla tumor.The corresponding treatment was adopted for PPH.The observation indicators included:(1) the surgical situation (surgical method,operation time and the volume of intraoperative blood loss),(2) diagnosis of PPH,(3) treatment of PPH,(4) univariate and multivariate analyses for the risk factors affecting the occurrence of PPH,(5) univariate and multivariate analyses for the risk factors affecting prognosis of PPH patients.The measurement data with normal distribution were represented as x ± s.The measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M (range).The chi-square test or Fisher exact probability was used for univariate analysis.Logistic regression model was used for multivariate analysis.Results (1) The surgical situation:among 703 patients,409 patients underwent standard pancreatoduodenectomy and 294 underwent pylorus-preserving pancreatoduodenectomy,including 1 combined with right hemihepatectomy,27 with portal vein reconstruction and 2 with hepatic artery reconstruction.Pancreaticojejunostomy was applied to 658 patients using mucosa anastomosis of the pancreatic duct to jejunum and 45 patients using invagination anastomosis.Supporting tube was routinely deposed in the pancreatic duct,598 patients had internal drainage and 105 patients had external drainage.The end-to-side anastomosis between common bile duct and jejunum was used for choledochojejunostomy.The 409 patients received the gastrojejunostomy using side-to-side anastomosis of gastric part and jejunum and 294 patients using end-to-side anastomosis of duodenum and jejunum.Operation time and volume of intraoperative blood loss were (324 ± 54) minutes and (428 ± 118) mL.(2) The diagnosis of PPH:among 703 patients after pancreatoduodenectomy,62 patients had PPH,the hemorrhage reasons of 38 patients had been identified,and the hemorrhage reasons of 24 patients had not been identified (A level in 5 patients,B level in 17 patients,C level in 2 patients).① The site of hemorrhage:the hemorrhage outside the cavity were detect in 27 patients,the hemorrhage inside the cavity in 28 patients,and the hemorrhage from both outside and inside part of the cavity in 7 patients.② The time of hemorrhage:early-stage hemorrhage were detected in 5 patients and the delayed hemorrhage in 57 patients.③The volume of postoperative blood loss was (885 ± 253)mL,30 patients had mild hemorrhage and 32 patients had severe hemorrhage.④ The clinical classification of PPH:5,32 and 25 patients were detected in level A,B,C,and 19 patients combined with sentinel hemorrhage.(3) The treatment of PPH:①5 patients with PPH in A level were given clinical observation,blood volume supplement and other treatment,then the symptoms gradually turned better.② Among 32 patients with PPH in B level,15 patients became better after symptomatic and supportive treatments,6 patients received successful hemostasis after guglielmi detachable colis embolization,4 patients received successful hemostasis under gastroscopic hemostasis,7 patients received emergency exploratory laparotomy.Thirty-two patients were improved and then out of hospital after treatment,without occurrence of death.③ Among 25 patients with PPH in C level,4 patients received successful hemostasis after guglielmi detachable colis embolization,17 patients received hemostasis by emergency exploratory laparotomy,4 patients with undiscovered bleeding points received the treatment of fluid infusion,blood volume supplement and antacid.Among 25 patients after corresponding treatment,10 patients were improved and 15 patients were dead.(4) The result of univariate analysis showed that the combined hypertension,vascular resection and reconstruction,postoperative pancreatic leakage and postoperative intraabdominal infection were risk factors affecting the occurrence of PPH (x2 =4.950,5.300,7.568,5.505,P ＜ 0.05).The results of multivariate analysis showed that the combined pancreatic leakage and postoperative intraabdominal infection were independent risk factors affecting the occurrence of PPH [OR =2.761,2.216,95％ confidence interval (CI):1.389-5.489,1.198-4.101,P ＜ 0.05].(5) The risk factors affecting the prognosis of PPH patients:the results of univariate analysis showed that postoperative sentinel hemorrhage,postoperative pancreatic leakage,site,degree and level of hemorrhage were risk factors affecting the prognosis of PPH patients (x2 =8.022,4.448,11.853,18.551,28.285,P ＜ 0.05).The results of multivariate analysis showed that postoperative sentinel hemorrhage and site of hemorrhage (outside and inside part of the cavity) were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of PPH patients (OR =5.550,0.233,95％ CI:1.595-19.314,0.086-0.635,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Pancreatic leakage and intraabdominal infection are independent risk factors after pancreatoduodenectomy.The treatment effect of the early-stage hemorrhage is better than that of the delayed hemorrhage,and angiographic embolization is the first choice of diagnosis and treatment for the delayed hemorrhage.Sentinel hemorrhage could result from aneurysm or continuous arterial hemorrhage of vascular erosion,it is the independent risk factor affecting the death of hemorrhage after pancreatoduodenectomy.
RESUMO
Objective To analyse the etiology,clinical characteristics and risk factors of central nervous system (CNS) complications after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).Methods The clinical features of CNS complications in patients who underwent allo-HSCT were observed,and analysis its causes and risk factors.Results 8 cases of CNS complications occured in 69 patients within 6 months after allo-HSCT and the incidence was 11.6 ％,the occurrence rate of CNS complications was 21.4 ％ (6/28) in HLA mismatched group,higher than HLA matehed group [49 ％ (2/41)] (P ＜ 0.05).Analogously,the incidence was 44.4 ％ (4/60) in patients with graft-versus-host disease (GVIID) (＞grade 2),which was significantly higher than patients with 2 or below grade 2 GVHD [6.7 ％ (4/9)] (P ＜ 0.01).But there was no significant difference in the incidence of CNS complications between ≤14 years old and ＞14 years old,with or without ATG,different stages of diseases,whether pretreatment with maryland respectively (P ＞0.05),either.Epilepsy and intracranial infection were the most common CNS complications in allo-HSCT,followed by intracranial hemorrhage.Conclusion HLA mismatched and above grade 2 GVHD are the risk factors of CNS complications in allo-HSCT.Epilepsy,intracranial infection and bleeding are common CNS complications in allo-HSCT.
RESUMO
ObjectiveTo investigate the correlation between the chromosomal abnormalities and prognosis of the myelodysplastic syndrome(MDS)patients, and analyze the effects of treatment. Methods Karyotype analysis of 122 patients according to the international human cytogenetics(ISCN) criteria.Treatment of RA and RAS were mainly dependent on agents to induce differentiation of hematopoietic cells and drugs based.RAEB,RAEB-t,CMML treatment were dependent on low-dose chemotherapy and low-dose combination chemotherapy regimens.The treatments of 64 MDS patients with abnormal karyotype were analyzed and compared with control group, and 58 normal karyotype MDS patients were hospitalized in the same period.ResultsAfter treatments,17 cases gained complete remission among 64 patients with abnormal karyotype MDS patients.The CR rate was 26.6 ％.While in control group,30 gained CR in 58 MDS patients with normal karyotype. The CR rate was 51.7 ％. Comparing with the CR patients of normal karyotype, the number of patients with abnormal karyotype of CR was significantly lower (x 2 =8.1 3,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Karyotype analysis shows important significance in the diagnosis and prognosis of MDS.Karyotype transformation demonstrates differently in the risk of leukemia progress.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the characteristics of co-infection in initial treatment acute leukemia induction chemotherapy.Methods The clinical features of 179 untreated acute leukemia patients with nosocomial infection were analyzed after combined chemotherapy.Results In the 179 patients,151cases achieved complete remission,the complete remission rate was 84.4 ％,82 cases suffered from nosocomial infections,the incidence of infection was 45.8 ％.The sites of infection were oral,anal,lung,as well as primary foci was not clear bacteremia.In 428 specimens,the isolated bacterial colony counted a total of 66,the number of fungal colonies was 9,the bacterial colony was G-bacteria-based.G-bacteria had different degrees of resistance to many antibiotics.Extended-spectrum β-lactamases strains had not been detected in these specimens.Conclusion Acute leukemia patients is easy to co-infection after chemotherapy.Control and prevention of nosocomial infections should run throughout the entire treatment process,application of laminar flow bed helps reduce the newly diagnosed acute leukemia patients with nosocomial infection incidence.
