First Report of Causing Leaf spot in in China.

Hymenocallis littoralis (Jacq.) Salisb. is a common ornamental plant in China.

Appropriate empirical antifungal therapy is associated with a reduced mortality rate in intensive care unit patients with invasive fungal infection: A real-world retrospective study based on the MIMIC-IV database.

Objective: The study aimed to determine the prevalence and pathogens of invasive fungal infection (IFI) among intensive care unit (ICU) patients. The next goal was to investigate the association between empirical antifungal treatment and mortality in ICU patients.

Methods: Using microbiological events, we identified all ICU patients with IFI and then retrieved electronic clinical data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database.

[Effects of Paclitaxel and Quizartinib Alone and in Combination on AML Cell Line MV4-11 and Its STAT5 Signal Pathway].

Objective: To investigate the effects of paclitaxel, quizartinib and their combination on proliferation, apoptosis and FLT3/STAT5 pathway of human leukemia cell line MV4-11 (FLT3-ITD+).

Methods: MV4-11 cells were treated with paclitaxel and quizartinib at different concentrations for 24 h, 48 h and 72 h, respectively, and then the two drugs were combined at 48 h to compare the inhibition of proliferation, the apoptosis rate was detected by flow cytometry, the expression of FLT3 and STAT5 mRNA was determined by fluorescence quantitative PCR, and the protein expression of FLT3, p-FLT3, STAT5 and p-STAT5 was determined by Western blot.

Results: Different combination groups of paclitaxel and quizartinib had synergistic inhibitory effect.

Thrombocytopenia in 737 adult intensive care unit patients: A real-world study of associated factors, drugs, platelet transfusion, and clinical outcome.

Objective: We aimed to identify and represent factors associated with thrombocytopenia in intensive care unit, especially the pathogens and drugs related to severe and extremely thrombocytopenia. Then, we aim to compare the mortality of platelet transfusion and non-transfusion in patients with different degrees of thrombocytopenia.

Methods: We identified all thrombocytopenic patients in intensive care unit by using platelet-specific values and then extracted electronic health records from our Hospital Information System.

Clinical analysis of 20 patients with non-Hodgkin lymphoma and autoimmune hemolytic anemia: A retrospective study.

Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) can co-exist with autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA), a phenomenon known as AIHA-associated NHL (AIHA/NHL). However, few studies have reported AIHA/NHL incidence or its clinical characteristics. We conducted a retrospective analysis of 20 AIHA/NHL patients treated at our hospital from 2009 to 2018.

Haploidentical versus Matched-Sibling Transplant in Adults with Philadelphia-Negative High-Risk Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia: A Biologically Phase III Randomized Study.

Purpose: Although matched-sibling donor (MSD) hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) has an established role in the management of adults with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) in first complete remission (CR1), the effect of haploidentical donor (HID) HSCT as post-remission treatment for this portion of patients is not defined.

Experimental Design: Transplantation outcomes from HIDs or MSDs were compared in a disease-specific, biologically phase III randomized, multicenter study. Between July 2010 and December 2013, 210 patients with Philadelphia-negative high-risk ALL in CR1 were assigned to undergo unmanipulated HIDs (121 patients) or MSDs HSCT (89 patients) according to donor availability on an intent-to-treat (ITT) basis.

[A comparison of toxicity and efficacy between busulfan plus fludarabine and busulfan plus cyclophosphamide for allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in acute myeloid leukemia].

Objective: To compare the transplant-related toxicity and the efficacy of busulfan/fludarabine (Bu/Flu) and busulfan/cyclophosphamide (Bu/Cy) as conditioning regimen in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) for acute myeloid leukemia(AML) in the first complete remission (CR1).

Methods: Totally 32 AML-CR1 patients underwent allo-HSCT were divided into Bu/Cy (Bu 3.2 mg×kg(-1)×d(-1), 7 - 4 days before transplantation; Cy 60 mg×kg(-1)×d(-1), 3 - 2 days before transplantation) and Bu/Flu (Bu 3.

Allo-HSCT for acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage in adults: the comparison between standard conditioning and intensified conditioning regimens.

Knowledge concerning the clinical and biological characteristics of acute leukemia of ambiguous lineage (ALAL) is limited so that there has been a lack of uniformity in treatment. In this report, we retrospectively investigated the effect of intensified conditioning on adult ALAL undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). A total of 59 patients with ALAL (male in 37 cases and female in 22 cases) were consecutively enrolled in the data analyses.

[Effect of ginsenoside Rh2 on transplanted-tumor and expression of JAM in mice].

Objective: To discuss the anti-tumor activity of ginsenoside Rh2, we observed the expressions of the junction adhesion molecul (JAM) in transplanted-tumor in mice.

Method: The models of 40 transplanted-tumor mice that were established by subsequently injecting cancer ascite of mice (S180) with 0.2 mL per mouse into the preepipodite skin were divided into two groups.
