() has attracted much attention because of the high oil content in its seeds, but there are few systematic studies on the phenolic compounds of leaves (TSP). In this study, the extraction process of TSP was optimized by response surface methodology. The phenolic components of these extracts were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).

Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy and prognosis of Rituximab combined with DHAX and CHOP regimen in the first-line treatment of elderly patients with newly diagnosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).

Methods: A total of 36 elderly patients with DLBCL who were admitted and treated with 3 of more courses of treatment from August 2011 to August 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, and they were divided into rituximab±DHAX (R±DHAX) regimen group (18 cases) and rituximab±CHOP (R-CHOP) regimen group (18 cases) according to the treatment plan, and clinical features, efficacy and survival of the patients were observed.

Results: Compared with R-CHOP group, patients of the R±DHAX group were older, and had worse performance status and higher IPI score, the differences between two groups in age, ECOG score and IPI score were statistically significant ( =0.

Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to investigate how common herpes zoster (shingles) is in multiple myeloma patients and identify factors that increase this risk, along with assessing the effectiveness of antiviral treatments.
  • Out of 180 patients, 12.8% developed herpes zoster, with higher rates seen in those with renal issues and those who underwent stem cell transplants; patients on bortezomib had a slightly increased incidence.
  • The findings suggest that antiviral prophylaxis significantly lowers the risk of herpes zoster, particularly in patients receiving bortezomib, while the presence of herpes zoster did not impact overall survival rates.

Objective: To explore the related factors affecting of autologous peripheral hematopoietic stem cell mobilization in patients with single center lymphoma and multiple myeloma.

Methods: The clinical total of 30 patients with lymphoma or multiple myeloma who underwent autologous peripheral hematopoietic stem cell mobilization and transplantation in the Affiliated Hospital of Jiangsu University from March 2012 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, including the patients' age, gender, disease type, chemotherapy course, mobilization scheme, collection times, CD34 cell count, adverse events, days of neutrophil and platelet implantation after transplantation. The related factors affecting to the mobilization efficiency of peripheral blood stem cells was analyzed.

Objective: To investigate the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in multiple myeloma (MM) patients, and analyze the effect of doxycycline (DOX) on the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in MM cells.

Methods: The peripheral blood and bone marrow samples of MM patients were collected, and the patients were divided into three groups: newly diagnosed group, remission group and relapsed/refractory group, while the peripheral blood samples of 34 health people and the bone marrow samples of 17 IDA patients were selected as normal control and control group. The levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 were detected by ELISA.

Chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T)-cell therapy is a promising treatment for relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM). In our previous report, CD19- and BCMA-targeted CAR-T co-administration was associated with a high response rate. Although cytokine release syndrome (CRS) and neurotoxicity are frequent complications following CAR-T treatment, cerebral infarction is rarely reported as a CAR-T-related complication.

Article Synopsis
  • Lymphadenopathy, a key feature of POEMS syndrome, often resembles Castleman disease (CD) but remains not fully understood, highlighting the need for better diagnostic methods.
  • A study analyzed lymphadenopathy characteristics in 23 POEMS patients using imaging methods like CT and PET/CT, revealing that 48% had enlarged lymph nodes, mostly under 2 cm in diameter.
  • PET/CT scans indicated that some lymph nodes showed CD-like changes while others had normal profiles, suggesting PET/CT could effectively differentiate between changes related to POEMS and CD.

Objective: To study the therapeutic efficacy of multigly-cosidorum Tripterygium combined with rhIL-11 for treating patients with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP).

Methods: A total of 75 patients with ITP were divided into 2 group: experimental group and control group. The experimental group included 40 patients who had been treated with multigly-cosidorum Tripterygium combined with rhIL-11.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the growth characteristics and the expression level of integrin mRNA of the cultured bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) from patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in myeloid crisis (MC), and explore the role of BMMSCs in pathogenesis of CML. Five CML patients were enrolled in experimental group, five healthy persons were used as control. BMMSCs were cultured in vitro.
