To investigate the efficacy and safety of umbilical cord blood combined with haploid HSCT (haplo-cord HSCT) in the treatment of hematological malignancies. The data of 82 patients with hematologic malignancies who received haplo-cord HSCT from January 2017 to June 2021 in the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University were retrospectively analyzed. There were 52 male and 30 female patients, aged [(, )] 29 (20, 41) years. All patients received myeloablative preconditioning regimen. The day of the donor stem cell infusion was recorded as day 0 (0 d), the day before the infusion was recorded as day-1 (-1 d), and the day after the infusion was recorded as day+1 (+1 d), and so on. Eighty-two patients received transfusion of peripheral blood and/or bone marrow stem cells from unrelated cord blood and haplotype donors after the myeloablative preconditioning regimen. The graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) prophylaxis regimen was 8 mg/kg ATG combined with cyclosporine, morte-macrolide, and methotrexate. Patients were evaluated for implantation and the occurrence of transplant-related complications such as GVHD, infection, hemorrhagic cystitis, and long-term patient survival. The time of neutrophil engraftment [(, )] was 13 (11, 15) days and 15 (13, 21) days for platelet. The 30-day cumulative incidence of neutrophil engraftment was 98.8% (81/82) and 100-day cumulative incidence of platelet engraftment was 92.7% (76/82). The cumulative incidence of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) in degree Ⅱ-Ⅳ and Ⅲ-Ⅳ was 24.4% (20/82) and 6.1% (5/82), respectively. The cumulative incidence of chronic GVHD in+18 months was 13.5% (11/82). The follow-up time [(, )] was 26 (13, 41) months, and the overall survival (OS) rate, event-free survival (EFS) rate, cumulative recurrence rate (CIR) and non-recurrence mortality (NRM) rate at 3 years after transplantation were 70.5% (95%: 59.7%-81.3%), 66.1% (95%: 56.1%-76.1%), 6.3% (95%: 5.7%-26.9%) and 20.8% (95%: 12.0%-29.6%), respectively. The cumulative incidence of cytomegalovirus and EBV reactivation was 37.8% (31/82) and 14.6% (12/82), respectively. The cumulative incidence of hemorrhagic cystitis was 32.9% (27/82). The efficacy of haplo-cord HSCT in the treatment of hematologic malignancies is reliable, with rapid hematopoietic reconstitution, low incidence of GVHD and virus reactivation.

Importance: Multiple organ dysfunction (MOD) is a leading cause of in-hospital child mortality. For survivors, posthospitalization health care resource use and costs are unknown.
Objective: To evaluate longitudinal health care resource use and costs after hospitalization with MOD in infants (aged <1 year) and children (aged 1-18 years).
Importance: Delirium is common after cardiac surgery and associated with adverse outcomes. Intraoperative benzodiazepines may increase postoperative delirium but restricting intraoperative benzodiazepines has not yet been evaluated in a randomized trial.
Objective: To determine whether an institutional policy of restricted intraoperative benzodiazepine administration reduced the incidence of postoperative delirium.

Background: Since the COVID-19 pandemic, health care workers (HCWs) faced an enormous physical and mental burden, sometimes altering their quality of life due mainly to persistent challenges stemming from their frontline position.
Aims: Todetermine the prevalence of post-COVID-19 syndrome, and its impact on the Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQoL) among HCWs.
Methods: This is an exhaustive cross-sectional study with analytical scope, conducted among all HCWs of the University Hospital Sahloul of Sousse, Tunisia, who have contracted COVID-19 between September 2020 and 30 March 2021 (N=529 cases).

Objective: The primary goal was to investigate whether the presence of preoperative lacunar infarcts (LACI) was associated with postoperative delirium (POD) in elderly patients undergoing elective major abdominal surgery.
Design: A prospective cohort study.
Setting And Participants: Patients aged ≥ 65 years from a tertiary level A hospital in China.

Background: During the COVID-19 outbreak in December 2022 in China, some laboratory workers in SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid testing (NAT) laboratories remained uninfected.
Objectives: To evaluate if the incidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection was reduced in laboratory workers who performed SARS-CoV-2 NAT, and whether this reduction resulted from the healthy worker effect.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study included 423 laboratory workers from 14 SARS-CoV-2 NAT laboratories in Xiamen, China.
