The efficacy and adverse events of arsenic trioxide for the patients with myelodysplastic syndrome: a systematic review and component network meta-analysis.

Background: Arsenic trioxide (ATO) might be effective for myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) by apoptosis induction and demethylation. But ATO has not been widely recommended for small sample and conflicting conclusion of existing trials. This review aimed to systematically evaluate the efficacy of regimens containing ATO for the MDS and explore optimal combination.

Distributed Fusion Estimation for Stochastic Uncertain Systems With Network-Induced Complexity and Multiple Noise.

This article investigates an issue of distributed fusion estimation under network-induced complexity and stochastic parameter uncertainties. First, a novel signal selection method based on event trigger is developed to handle network-induced packet dropouts, as well as packet disorders resulting from random transmission delays, where the H/H performance of the system is analyzed in different noise environments. In addition, a linear delay compensation strategy is further employed for solving the complex network-induced problem, which may deteriorate system performance.

Compound Zhebei granules combined with chemotherapy for the treatment of refractory acute leukemia: a randomized clinical trial.

Objective: To observe the effect of compound Zhebei granules (CZBG) with chemotherapy in the treatment of refractory acute leukemia.

Methods: In this multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial, we used a central (online) randomization system to assign 235 patients to two treatment groups. A total of 118 patients received chemotherapy combined with CZBG (4 g, twice daily) and 117 patients received chemotherapy plus placebo.
