Traditional Chinese Baduanjin Exercise With Nursing and Peer Group Support in the Care of Patients After Allogeneic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation: Evaluation of Application and Survival Analysis.

Cancer Nurs

January 2025

Author Affiliations: Department of Hematology, Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University (Mss Guo, L. Liu, He, Ma, and Zhang, and Drs H. Liu and Zheng); and School of Nursing, Shanxi Medical University (Ms L. Liu), Taiyuan, China.

Background: Sleep problems and anxiety are imperative for continuity of care and rehabilitation in patients following an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT).

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the impact on anxiety, sleep quality, and survival of integrating traditional Chinese Baduanjin exercises to track the control of continuous care in patients receiving an allo-HSCT.

Methods: A total of 75 patients discharged after receiving an allo-HSCT were included.

Background: Systemic inflammatory diseases (SIDs) have been reported in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD), but clinical data in children are scarce.

Objectives: To identify clinical and laboratory features at diagnosis of SID in children with SCD and to describe their evolution.

Methods: Data from children with SCD and SIDs were retrospectively collected in a French multicenter study from 1991 to 2018.

Chronic Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a major complication of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), affecting the female genital tract in 25-66% of the patients. This condition, referred to as Genital GVHD is an underdiagnosed gynecologic comorbidity, that can significantly impair quality of life. We aimed to describe the prevalence and management of genital GVHD following HSCT.

Intra-patient variability in immunosuppressive blood drug concentrations is a potential biomarker in managing organ transplant patients. However, the association between the time in therapeutic range of tacrolimus blood concentrations and its efficacy in preventing graft-versus-host disease remains unknown. In this study, we analyzed the relationship between the time in therapeutic range of tacrolimus blood concentrations and its efficacy in acute graft-versus-host disease prophylaxis in patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Gene enhancers often form long-range contacts with promoters, but it remains unclear if the activity of enhancers and their chromosomal contacts are mediated by the same DNA sequences and recruited factors. Here, we study the effects of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) on enhancer activity and promoter contacts in primary monocytes isolated from 34 male individuals. Using eQTL-Capture Hi-C and a Bayesian approach considering both intra- and inter-individual variation, we initially detect 19 eQTLs associated with enhancer-eGene promoter contacts, most of which also associate with enhancer accessibility and activity.
