Objective To explore the diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of BCR-ABL positive differentiated acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Method: A retrospective analysis was conducted on a case of BCR-ABL positive AML differentiated type (M0) confirmed by cell morphology, immunology, cytogenetics, and molecular biology methods at Southern Hospital of Southern Medical University. The IA "3+7" regimen was combined with dasatinib for induction chemotherapy. The results showed that 0.745% of the patients had cells with unclear classification, and there was no evidence of myeloid differentiation in morphology and cytochemistry. Peroxidase staining positive cells accounted for 0.2%. Immunophenotyping mainly expresses CD34, CD38, CD36, CD13dim, CD33, CD71dim, CD19dim, CD10, HLA-DR differentiation antigens, with almost no expression of cCD22 or cMPO. Fluorescence in situ hybridization showed that 82% of BCR-ABL1 fusion genes were positive, while IGH deletion was positive; Chromosomes 46, XX, t (9; 22) (q34; q11.2) [8]/46, XX [22]; The results of polymerase chain reaction showed that BCR-ABL1 p190 was positive. After IA combined with dasatinib chemotherapy, complete remission was achieved, but due to the combination of central nervous system leukemia, the treatment was ineffective and the patient died. Conclusion The incidence rate of BCR-ABL positive differential AML is low, and there is no unified treatment plan. The traditional AML chemotherapy plan, combined with tyrosine kinase inhibitor, may benefit, but the prognosis is poor.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of adult acute myeloid leukemia (AML) with TLS-ERG fusion gene positive. Methods Adult two AML patients with TLS-ERG fusion gene positive in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in January 2017 and March 2018, respectively were enrolled, and their clinical characteristics and prognosis were analyzed. Results Both patients with TLS-ERG fusion gene positive were males. According to morphology classification, the first case was classified to AML-M5, and the other one was AML-M4. Both patients' immunophenotypic features showed CD56 expression, and CD25 was expressed in the first patient simultaneously. Both patients were treated with induction and consolidated intensive therapy based on Chinese guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of adult AML (not acute promyelocytic leukemia) and the guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of AML (relapse/refractory) in China. The first patient died 11 months after diagnosis, and the second patient remained in remission until the end of follow-up in February 2019 (12 months after diagnosis). Conclusion TLS-ERG fusion gene has low incidence rate, high recurrence rate, poor reinduction effect, poor prognosis and short survival time in adult AML.

Since its inception, anti-platelet antibodies have been an important tool for studying the interaction of platelets with blood components and blood vessels. At the same time, anti-platelet antibodies also play an important role in the detection and diagnosis of hemorrhagic and thrombotic diseases, and become a kind of powerful anti-thrombotic drugs. With the further understanding of the role of platelets in physiological hemostasis and pathological thrombosis, anti-platelet and anti-thrombotic antibodies also seek a balance between better anti-thrombotic effects and less bleeding side effects.

Objective To study the clinicopathological features and therapeutic regimens of primary testicular lymphoma (PTL). Methods The clinical data of 16 patients diagnosed with PTL from January 2005 to December 2015 in Jiangsu Province Hospital were collected, and the clinicopathological characteristics were retrospectively analyzed. Kaplan-Meier method was used to make the survival analysis. Results The median onset age of 16 patients was 63 years old (33-81 years old). According to Ann Arbor stage, there were 8 cases of stage ⅠE, 2 cases of stage ⅡE, 6 cases of stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ. The initial symptoms included painless solid enlargement of the testis (9 cases), painful testis (3 cases), distending pain of testis (1 case), and the patients had no other systemic symptoms. The pathological type was diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), of which 2 patients were germinal center B-cell (GCB) type and the other 14 patients were non-GCB type. All the patients received the orchiectomy, of which 14 received chemotherapy alone after the operation, 2 received chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Complete follow-up data were available for 14 patients, and the median follow-up time was 23.5 months (1.0-97.0 months). Among 14 patients, complete remission was achieved in 11 patients, partial remission in 1 patient, no response in 1 patient, and 1 patient was undergoing treatment. Among 11 patients with complete remission, 5 patients relapsed, and the recurrence occurred at the central nervous system (3 cases), skin of right lower extremity (1 case), and contralateral testis (1 case). The mean progression-free survival (PFS) time was 19.0 months (14.0-95.0 months). Conclusions Most PTL is primary testis DLBCL, and the comprehensive treatment based on surgery is the main therapy of PTL. Postoperative chemotherapy with or without radiotherapy is recommended to prevent relapse. Key words: Testicular neoplasms; Lymphoma; Orchiectomy; Combined modality therapy

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy and prognosis of DA-EPOCH regimen combined with or without rituximab [(R)-DA-EPOCH regimen] in treatment of young newly diagnosed patients with middle and high-risk diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Methods The clinical data of 107 young newly diagnosed middle to high-risk DLBCL patients treated with (R)-DA-EPOCH regimen at Guizhou Cancer Hospital between November 2014 and December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The efficacies were analyzed by grouping according to rituximab (65 cases in R-DA-EPOCH group and 42 cases in DA-EPOCH group), and according to involved-filed radiotherapy (IFRT) after chemotherapy (99 cases with chemotherapy indications including 59 cases with IFRT and 40 cases without IFRT). Results The objective response rate (ORR) was 86.0% (92/107). The 1-, 2-year overall survival (OS) rate was 90.6% and 75.3%. The 1-, 2-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate was 79.1% and 56.5%. The ORR, 1-year OS rate, 2-year OS rate, 1-year PFS rate and 2-year PFS rate in R-DA-EPOCH group were higher than those in DA-EPOCH group [87.7% (57/65) vs. 83.3% (35/42), 94.8% vs. 84.9%, 80.4% vs. 68.2%, 90.5% vs. 77.0%, 61.0% vs. 50.8%, respectively), but there were no statistical differences (all P > 0.05). The ORR of IFRT group and non-IFRT group was 98.2% (56/57) and 80.0% (32/40) (χ 2 = 7.225, P = 0.007). The 2-year OS rate was 86.0% and 63.3% (P < 0.05). Main adverse reactions caused by radiotherapy were local skin mucosa reactions of grade Ⅰ-Ⅱ [42.4% (25/59)]. Multivariate analysis showed that albumin value after treatment was an independent prognosis factor affecting OS rate (95% CI 2.709-21.433, P < 0.01). Gender (95% CI 0.020-0.318, P < 0.01), albumin level (95% CI 2.097-12.219, P < 0.01), Beta 2 microglobulin level (95% CI 0.080-0.602, P < 0.01) and absolute lymphocyte count/absolute monocyte count (95% CI 0.113-0.720, P < 0.01) after treatment were independent prognosis factors affecting PFS rate. Conclusions The young newly diagnosed patients with middle and high-risk DLBCL are highly heterogeneous. Rituximab combined with DA-EPOCH regimen can improve the efficacy of patients. IFRT after chemotherapy may increase the short-term efficacy and OS, and the adverse reactions are tolerant.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment of follicular lymphoma (FL) with large abdominal mass and chylothorax. Method: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the laboratory examination, imaging, pathological examination, and treatment of a FL patient with massive abdominal mass and chylothorax admitted to Lanzhou General Hospital of the Lanzhou Military Region, and relevant literature was reviewed. The main clinical manifestation of the patient was recurrent chylothorax, and pelvic magnetic resonance imaging showed a large retroperitoneal mass. Combined with various laboratory tests and neck lymph node biopsy, the diagnosis was confirmed as non Hodgkin's lymphoma, follicular cell type IVB, and regular chemotherapy was given with R-CHOP regimen. Conclusion: The typical clinical manifestation of FL is painless lymph node enlargement, with the appearance of unexplained large abdominal masses and relatively rare chylothorax. Comprehensive examinations such as bone marrow puncture should be performed according to the condition and early stages to avoid misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of blood coagulation and fibrinolysis index detection in lymphoma patients. Methods A total of 115 lymphoma patients hospitalized at Zhongshan Hospital of Xiamen University from January 2013 to September 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the diagnostic and therapeutic criteria of lymphoma from World Health Organization (2008), these patients were divided into chemotherapy remission group (76 cases) and chemotherapy non-remission group (39 cases). A total of 138 healthy examination subjects at the same period were selected as the control group. Coagulation factor Ⅶ (FⅦ), D-dimer (D-D), von Willebrand factor antigen (vWF: Ag) and serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels were measured in all subjects. Kruskal-Wallis test was used to compare the differences of blood coagulation and fibrinolysis indicators in patients with different lymphoma staging and stratified treatment outcomes. Correlation test of D-D and LDH and disease staging was performed by using Spearman correlation analysis. The receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve was used to analyze the efficacy of D-D in the assisted diagnosis of lymphoma with thrombosis. Results The plasma D-D, vWF: Ag levels and FⅦ activity [the median (interquartile range)] in lymphoma patients were higher than those in healthy controls [1 240 ng/ml (1 610 ng/ml) vs. 250 ng/ml (43 ng/ml), Z = -10.728, P < 0.01; 170 ng/ml (113 ng/ml) vs. 105 ng/ml (28 ng/ml), Z = -6.425, P < 0.01; 120% (26%) vs. 96% (26%), Z = -4.602, P < 0.01]. With the increase of Ann Arbor stage, plasma D-D, vWF: Ag levels and FⅦ activity were also increased gradually (all P < 0.05); plasma D-D, vWF: Ag levels and FⅦ activity in lymphoma with thrombosis group were higher than those in the group without thrombosis (all P < 0.01), D-D and vWF: Ag levels in the chemotherapy remission group were lower than those in the chemotherapy non-remission group (all P < 0.01). Plasma D-D levels were positively correlated with LDH level and Ann Arbor stage (r values were 0.414 and 0.530, respectively, all P < 0.01). When the plasma D-D level was 1 735 ng/ml, the sensitivity of diagnosis of thrombosis in patients with lymphoma was 81.8%, the specificity was 85.7%, the area under the ROC curve was 0.894, and the Youden index was the highest (0.675). Conclusions Clinically, blood coagulation and fibrinolysis in patients with lymphoma can be evaluated by detecting blood coagulation and fibrinolysis indexes such as plasma D-D. Real-time monitoring of plasma D-D level can determine the thrombosis trend of lymphoma patients, and it may play an important role in evaluating the efficacy and prognosis.

Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is an aggressive and rare B-cell lymphoma, accounting for around 6%-8% of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL). Up to now, there are a lot of studies and reports on the biological behavior, diagnostic criteria and treatments of MCL worldwide. However, due to its high invasiveness, there are still many problems to be solved in terms of prognosis and treatment. This article introduces MCL and its progress in the unsolved clinical problems.
