Progress in Targeting the TGFβ Pathway

Signaling by the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily is important in the regulation of hematopoiesis and is dysregulated in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), contributing to ineffective hematopoiesis and clinical cytopenias. TGF-β, activins and growth differentiation factors exert inhibitory effects on red cell formation by activating canonical SMAD2/3 pathway signaling. SMAD2/3 overactivation is seen in numerous subtypes of MDS. Furthermore, reduced levels of inhibitory SMAD7 are

近30年中国文献报道恶性淋巴瘤合并自身免疫性血细胞减少症的系统性分析

本文通过收集1989年1月至2019年12月国内学者发表在国内外期刊上的文献及参考文献,共纳入符合标准的140例恶性淋巴瘤(malignant lymphoma,ML)合并自身免疫性血细胞减少(autoimmune cytopenia,AIC)病例,包括溶血性贫血(autoimmune hemolytic anemia,AIHA)、免疫性血小板减少症(immune thrombocytopenia,ITP)、纯红细胞再生障碍性贫血(pure red cell aplasia,PRCA)及Evans综合征等。虽然各亚型淋巴瘤病例数均较少(n=1~28),但通过系统性分析仍得到部分有意义的发现。除免疫性中性粒细胞减少(autoimmune neutropenia,AIN)外,各类AIC均有报道,发生率依次为AIHA>ITP>冷凝集素综合征(cold agglutinin syndrome,CAS)>PRCA>Evans综合征。AIC见于各亚型淋巴瘤,但各类AIC在不同亚型发生率存在差异。CAS仅见于淋巴瘤B细胞非霍奇金淋巴瘤(B cell nonHodgkin′slymphoma,B-NHL)、AIHA、ITP,Evans综合征多见于B-NHL,PRCA则多见于T细胞非霍奇金淋巴瘤(T cell non Hodgkin′s lymphoma,T-NHL)。相较于糖皮质激素等常规治疗,合并ML的AIC抗肿瘤治疗对有效率更高。恶性淋巴瘤合并AIC临床情况复杂,需引起临床关注。     

地中海贫血孕妇产前诊断的护理效果评价

目的研究地中海贫血孕妇实施产科综合护理模式的护理配合措施及效果。方法选择78例于我院检查地中海贫血孕妇,纳入时间为2017年5月-2018年5月,采用随机数字表法将其分为综合护理组与对照组,每组均39例。其中对照组采用常规护理形式,综合护理组行产科综合护理模式,对比综合护理组与对照组护理前后心理状态评估指标及家属的护理满意度。结果护理前综合护理组与对照组患者心理状态评估指标差异无统计学意义(P>0.05),与对照组(76.92%)相比,护理后综合护理组焦虑指标、抑郁指标更低,综合护理组孕妇及家属的护理满意度(94.87%)较高(P<0.05)。结论通过综合护理模式可提升地中海贫血孕妇护理满意度,并改善其心理状态。     

以“芪英三两三”组方经验为指导治愈顽固慢性再生障碍性贫血1例

慢性再生障碍性贫血属于临床血液系统常见疾病之一，发病率呈逐年升高趋势，病程长，易反复，对患者的生活质量形成严重影响。姜苗教授认为慢性再生障碍性贫血不仅与肾虚相关，且与脾胃升降功能联系密切，强调从脾论治，抓住“虚”“瘀”“毒”3个病理因素，活用“芪英三两三”组方加减，健脾益肾，化瘀解毒。文章以完全治愈1则顽固慢性再障合并继发血小板减少病案为例，探讨姜教授治疗慢性再生障碍性贫血思路及用药方案。

郑州地区孕妇铁营养状况及其影响因素调查

目的 探讨郑州地区孕妇铁营养状况及其影响因素。方法 以2021年4—8月在郑州市某三家医院建立健康档案并进行孕期体检的孕妇作为研究对象进行问卷调查及铁营养状况检测,采用描述流行病学方法对孕妇铁营养状态进行分析,并采用单、多因素分析方法对孕妇铁缺乏状况影响因素进行分析。结果 共有3 258例孕妇参与本次研究,其中妊娠早期989例,占30.36%,妊娠中期1 125例,占34.53%,妊娠晚期1 144例,占35.11%。在3 258名孕妇中,共有773例为铁缺乏,铁缺乏的检出率为23.73%。多因素分析结果显示,年龄≥35岁（OR=2.726）、处于妊娠的中期或晚期（OR=3.037,3.438）、月经初潮年龄<13岁（OR=2.432）、经产妇（OR=3.493）、流产次数≥3次（OR=2.648）、孕前月经量≥100 mL/次（OR=2.420）、文化程度为初中及以上（OR=0.517,0.459）、居住在农村（OR=3.684）、家庭月收入>3 000元及以上（OR=0.601,0.542）、居住房屋装修时间<1年（OR=6.449）、罹患消化系统疾病（OR=4.716）、有营养补齐剂摄入（OR=0.355）是孕妇铁缺乏的影响因素。结论 郑州市孕妇铁缺乏检出率较高,需要尽早给予针对性的干预。部分因素被确定为该地区孕妇人群发生铁元素缺乏的影响因素,可选择性的对其中危险因素给予干预。     

Randomized,placebo-controlled trial of ferric carboxymaltose in restless legs syndrome patients with iron deficiency anemia

ObjectiveIntravenous ferric carboxymaltose (FCM) has been shown to be efficacious in treating restless legs syndrome (RLS) symptoms in non-anemic patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of FCM in treating RLS symptoms in patients who also had an iron deficiency anemia (IDA).MethodsThis is a randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study. Subjects with RLS and IDA were enrolled. Subjects received an infusion of either 1500 mg FCM or placebo in Phase I. The primary outcomes were a change-from-baseline at week six on the International Restless Legs Syndrome Study Group scale (IRLS). Phase II of the study involved long-term (52 weeks) follow-up, for those who responded to treatment in the prior phase, with the potential for further treatment if symptoms returned.ResultsWe enrolled 29 RLS patients with IDA (15 FCM and 14 placebo). At week six post-infusion, FCM compared to placebo group showed significant improvement from baseline in IRLS score (−13.47 ± 7.38 vs. 1.36 ± 3.59). Among secondary outcome variables, quality of sleep showed significant improvement from baseline in the FCM group. 61% of subjects remained off RLS medications at the Phase II, week-52 endpoint. There were no serious adverse events observed in the study.ConclusionThe study showed significant efficacy and safety of FCM 1500 mg treatment both in the short term (6 weeks) and long term (52 weeks) in RLS patients with IDA.     

Panniculitis in a 3‐year‐old child with Fanconi anemia‐associated bone marrow hypoplasia heralds transformation to acute myeloid leukemia

Fanconi anemia is a rare, autosomal recessive genomic instability disorder characterized by congenital limb anomalies, panmyelopathy and a high risk of malignancy, principally acute myeloid leukemia. Hematologic malignancy presenting with acute febrile neutrophilic dermatosis (Sweet syndrome), both deep and superficial forms, is well described in Fanconi anemia patients but is a rare phenomenon in otherwise healthy children. We present a case of panniculitis (presumptive subcutaneous Sweet syndrome) heralding transformation to acute myeloid leukemia in a 3‐year‐old boy with a severe Fanconi anemia phenotype.
