Objective: This study was to explore the key factors in leukemia model through the analysis of mouse with bad life state in the modeling process of leukemia so as to provide the theoretical reference for improving the success rate of modeling.
Methods: At 1 week after inoculation of leukemia cells into SCID mice, the life status and peripheral hemogram of SCID mice were tested, the bone marrow smears, splean biopsy and spleen index of mice were examined after dissecting mormal and agoned/died mice during modoling, and the examined results were compared.
Results: As compared with control mice, the life status of experimental mice was poor; the blood smear test showed juvenile cells, slightly more white blood cells with irregular shape and partial rupture, the lymphocytes and band cells obviously increased, the neutrophile granulocytes showed nuclear left shift; the bone marrow smears showed larger cell volume, smaller mulcoplasm, abnormal morphology of cells and cell nuclei and serious cell rapture; the spleen examination showed that the spleen diplayed enlargement and hyperemia to varying degree, the spleen index obviously increase, the spleen interstitial expansion, cell disordered arragement and irregular cell shope were observed, however there was no infiltration of leukemia cells in control and experimental mice.
Conclusion: The mouse age, pathway of inoculating the leukemia cells, sterile condition in breading and avoiding the rejection and inflammatory response in modeling process are the key foctors influencing the modeling success.

BACKGROUND Fibrosing mediastinitis (FM) is a rare, fibroproliferative disorder within the mediastinum. It is extremely rare for hematologic malignancies to develop as FM. CASE REPORT A 32-year-old Japanese man with a 1-month history of headache and 2-week history of facial swelling underwent chest computed tomography (CT); a diffuse mass-like lesion was revealed in the anterior mediastinum with severe stenosis of vital mediastinal organs.

Background: Preeclampsia (PE) is a pregnancy complication characterized by hypertension, proteinuria, endothelial dysfunction, and complement dysregulation. Placenta-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs), necessary in maternal-fetal communication, might contribute to PE pathogenesis. Moreover, neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) play a pathogenic role in other complement-mediated pathologies, and their contribution in PE remains unexplored.

Objective: Of this study was to analyse the correlation of gene polymorphisms with clinical and laboratory data of paediatric patients with B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukaemia with prognostically unfavourable features.
Methods: A study of 200 children with B-lineage acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (B-ALL) treated with polychemotherapy programmes was conducted. Analysis by sex revealed a statistically insignificant predominance of the group of boys over girls (54%).

Introduction: Febrile neutropenia is one of the most serious complications in patients with hematological malignancies and chemotherapy. Channa striata is a freshwater fish belonging to the family Channidae. This study aims to determine whether the administration of channa striata extract can increase neutrophil count, neutrophil function and prevent incidence of febrile neutropenia in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients receiving chemotherapy.

Background And Objective: Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a hematological malignancy marked by the abnormal proliferation of myeloid precursor cells (blasts) in the bone marrow and peripheral blood, leading to disrupted blood cell production. The telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT), a key component of the telomerase enzyme, is often overexpressed in various cancers, including AML, contributing to cellular immortality. This study aimed to investigate the expression levels of the hTERT gene, serum protein concentrations, and hematological parameters in newly diagnosed AML patients, comparing these findings to AML patients in remission and healthy controls.
