Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the occurrence, contributing factors, and effects of pulmonary hypertension (PH) in patients with Philadelphia chromosome negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (Ph MPNs).
  • Among 271 patients analyzed, the incidence of PH was found to be 26.9%, with significantly higher rates in those with primary myelofibrosis compared to other subtypes.
  • Key risk factors identified include advanced age, long disease duration, and elevated blood parameters, while survival rates for patients with PH were notably lower, highlighting the need for increased clinical vigilance in managing these patients.

Article Synopsis
  • The study explores how Agaricus blazei extract FA-2-b-β can help overcome drug resistance in T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) cell lines.
  • Various laboratory methods showed that FA-2-b-β effectively inhibited cell growth, induced cell death, and altered the cell cycle in leukemia cells.
  • The findings suggest that FA-2-b-β works by decreasing key proteins associated with drug resistance and might act through the Wnt signaling pathway, indicating its potential therapeutic role in T-ALL treatment.

Objective: To study the value of neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in the evaluation of prognosis of patients with multiple myeloma (MM).

Methods: NLR was calculated on the basis of the blood routine examination results of 65 patients with primary MM (MM group) and 83 persons receiving physical examination as control group, and the difference in 2 group was compared; moreover according to the median as threshold, the patients were divided into low NLR group (NLR<2.34) and high NLR group (NLR≥2.

Hydrothermal liquefaction in subcritical water is a potential way to treat sewage sludge as a resource rather than a waste. This study focused on the transformation regularity of nitrogen in aqueous product which was derived from hydrothermal liquefaction of sewage sludge under different operating conditions. Results showed, within the studied temperature scope and time span, the concentration of total nitrogen (TN) fluctuated in the range of 2867.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of salidroside on human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (hBMMSC) apoptosis induced by cytarabine C (Ara-C) and its mechanism, hBMMSC were cultured in vitro and isolated by Fircoll density gradient centrifugation; cell surface antigens were measured by flow cytometry; the osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation of MSC was tested and evaluated by specific staining methods. The proliferation and apoptosis of cells exposed to Ara- C were detected by MTT and flow cytometry respectively. The experiments were divided into 4 groups: control group, Ara-C group, salidroside group and Ara-C+salidroside group.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) differentiate into numerous different cell types and thus have therapeutic potential for tissue engineering, anti‑inflammatory and immunomodulatory purposes. FGF2 may affect the biological behavior of MSCs. MSCs were transduced with either adenovirus‑null vector/green fluorescent protein (GFP) or a vector encoding for the overexpression of FGF2/GFP.

Objective: To investigate the management of pregnancy and cardiovascular complications in women with Marfan syndrome (MFS).

Methods: From October 1994 to September 2006, 30 patients with MFS undergoing cardiovascular surgery were studied retrospectively.

Results: In the labor of 46 offsprings given birth by 30 women, 5 cases (11%) were performed elective cesarean section because of the existence of aortic complication, and 12 (26%) were diagnosed as MFS.
