Background: This investigation assessed the therapeutic potential of combining linperlisib, a targeted inhibitor of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase delta (PI3Kδ), with gemcitabine and oxaliplatin (GEMOX) for patients with relapsed or refractory (R/R) diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).
Methods: This was a multicenter, phase Ib/II clinical study conducted across six sites in China, enrolling 39 individuals with histologically confirmed R/R DLBCL. The treatment protocol included oral linperlisib alongside GEMOX administered intravenously every three weeks for up to six cycles.
Background: Acquired aplastic anemia (AA) is a life-threatening disease associated with an imbalance in Th17/Treg cells. Regulating this balance may be an effective treatment approach for AA. Rhodiola rosea has shown efficacy in AA treatment, but its mechanisms remain unclear.

SS has three subtypes, including classical, malignant-tumor associated, and drug-induced SS (DISS). Patients with DISS have clear histories of recent drug exposure.

Patients And Methods: Histologically confirmed relapsed and/or refractory patients with FL with disease progression after receiving second-line or greater systemic therapy were enrolled. Linperlisib was administered at 80 mg every day, orally in a 28-day cycle until disease progression or intolerable toxicity occurred.
Objectives: We sought to investigate the nature and incidence of bloodstream infection complications and to identify the risk factors of central catheter-related bloodstream infections (CRBSI).
Methods: During the study period, 291 consecutive patients with hematological malignancies who underwent PICC placement were retrospectively enrolled. We analyzed the covariates that were specified a priori for their association with CRBSI through multivariate Cox proportional hazards regression models.

Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy and prognosis of patients with multiple myeloma (MM) treated by long-term maintenance lenalidomide treatment.
Methods: A total of 97 patients diagnosed as MM in the Department of Hematology of First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine from 2012 to 2019 were selected, and the basic clinical characteristics and laboratory indicators of the patients were tested and evaluated. After long-term maintenance lenalidomide treatment for patients with MM, the short-term and long-term clinical efficacy and the incidence of adverse reactions were evaluated, and factors affecting the prognosis of the patients were analyzed.
The application of haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) with mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) infusion as a treatment regimen for severe aplastic anemia (SAA) has been reported to be efficacious in single-arm trials. However, it is difficult to assess without comparing the results with those from a first-line, matched-sibling HSCT. Herein, we retrospectively reviewed 91 patients with acquired SAA.

The advent of next-generation sequencing has allowed our understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of aCML to be expanded and has made it possible for clinicians to more accurately differentiate aCML from similar MDS/MPN overlap syndrome and MPN counterparts, as MPN-associated driver mutations in , or are typically absent in aCML. A 55-year old male with main complaints of weight loss and fatigue for more than half a year and night sweats for more than 2 months was admitted to our hospital.

Proliferation, a key feature of cancer cells, accounts for the majority of cancer-related diseases resulting in mortality. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) plays important post-transcriptional modulation roles by acting on multiple signaling pathways, but the underlying mechanism in proliferation and tumorigenicity is unclear. Here, we identified the role of miR-150 in proliferation and tumorigenicity in leukemia stem cells (LSCs; CD34+CD38- cells).

With economic and cultural globalization, the trend of globalization of higher education becomes inevitable. Using the concept of competitiveness, the authors established a principal component analysis (PCA) model to examine disciplinary competitiveness in stomatology of various higher education institutions worldwide. A total of forty-four universities entered the final list according to these calculations.
