ms) occurred more often in the non-NBLG group.Children in Korea who are maltreated have different physical health, emotional, and behavioral problems depending on their family income level. These results can be useful in approaching the recognition of and interventions for child maltreatment.

This observational, longitudinal retrospective, noncomparative study was designed to assess the persistence and effectiveness of golimumab as a second anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) drug in patients with spondyloarthritis requiring discontinuation from a first anti-TNF drug.Data were collected retrospectively for all patients with axial spondyloarthritis or psoriatic arthritis from 20 rheumatology clinics in Spain who started golimumab as a second anti-TNF drug between January 2013 and December 2015. Golimumab persistence was assessed with Kaplan-Meier survival analysis, and associated factors were assessed with Cox regression analysis.210 patients started golimumab as a second anti-TNF drug 131 with axial spondyloarthritis and 79 with psoriatic arthritis. In axial spondyloarthritis patients, the mean (standard deviation) Bath Ankylosing Spondylitis Disease Activity Index score at baseline was 5.5 (2.1), decreasing to 3.9 (2.0) at month 3 and 3.5 (2.0) at year 1, and remaining stable thereafter. In psoria first anti-TNF drug, treatment with golimumab was effective and showed a high probability of persistence up to 4 years of treatment.

Cardiovascular disease (CAD) is a devastating illness, but to date there are limited means of predicting a person's coronary stenosis severity and their prognosis. The study was performed to investigate the relationship between dipeptidyl peptidase 4(DPP4) gene polymorphisms and serum lipid profiles, as well as the severity of coronary artery stenosis in patients with CAD and type 2 diabetes (T2DM) for the first time.Herein, 201 patients with CAD and T2DM were enrolled in the Department of Cardiology, Shandong Provincial Qianfoshan Hospital. DPP4 rs3788979 and rs7608798 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were genotyped. The general information of all patients was collected, and the associations between DPP4 SNPs and lipid profiles were detected. At the same time, association between SNP polymorphisms and the degree of coronary artery stenosis were analyzed.There was a significant difference in apolipoprotein B (ApoB) levels (P = .011) for the rs3788979 polymorphism, while no difference was identified inct and prove to be a useful and specific measure when predicting a patient's coronary stenosis severity if diagnosed with CAD and T2DM.

To examine the knowledge level, behaviors, and psychological status of the Chinese population during the COVID-19 pandemic, and to explore the differences between urban and rural areas.We carried out a cross-sectional survey of the knowledge, behaviors related to COVID-19, and mental health in a probability sample of 3001 community residents in 30 provinces or districts across China from February 16-23, 2020. Convenience sampling and a snowball sampling were adopted. We used General Anxiety Disorder (GAD), the 9-item Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), and knowledge and behaviors questionnaire of community residents regarding COVID-19 designed by us to investigate the psychological status, disease-related knowledge, and the behavior of Chinese urban and rural residents during the pandemic.The average score of anxiety and depression among urban residents was 9.15 and 11.25, respectively, while the figures in rural areas were 8.69 and 10.57, respectively. There was a statistically significant difference in severe compared to those living in rural areas. There was a difference in being positively associated with constructive behaviors between rural and urban areas.

This study aimed to explore the clinical characteristics, therapeutic efficacy and prognostic factors of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL).

The clinical data of 119 PTCL patients who were admitted to the Xinjiang Medical University Affiliated Tumor Hospital from January 2010 to December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed, including the clinical characteristics, therapeutic efficacy, prognosis-related factors and treatments. Among the patients, 98 patients received antharcyclines-based therapeutic protocols, including Cyclophosphamide, Pirarubicin, Vincristine, Prednisone (CHOP) protocol and Cyclophosphamide, Pirarubicin, Vincristine, Prednisone, Etoposide (CHOPE) protocol, with median follow-up time of 32.5 months (2-166 months). The patients' clinical characteristics were analyzed, and COX ratio risk regression model was adopted to analyze the prognostic factors related with the survival rate of PTCL patients.

The 5-year overall survival (OS) rate was 46.4% and progression-free survival (PFS) rate was lved and Hb level are related with the prognosis of PTCL patients. Anemia occurring before the treatment is an important predictive indicator influencing the prognosis of PTCL patients and patients who experience anemia will be poor in prognosis.

PTCL is poor in therapeutic efficacy and prognosis, and different pathological types, Ann Arbor stage, presence/absence of bone marrow involved and Hb level are related with the prognosis of PTCL patients. Anemia occurring before the treatment is an important predictive indicator influencing the prognosis of PTCL patients and patients who experience anemia will be poor in prognosis.

Sentinel lymph node (SLN) is important in the early diagnosis of breast cancer. We aimed to evaluate the role of contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) in the preoperative evaluation for SLN and potentially influencing factors, to provide evidence to the management of breast cancer.Patients with breast cancer who treated in our hospital from May 2018 to May 2020 were selected. All patients underwent CEUS examination to find SLN and judged whether the lymph node had cancer metastasis. We evaluated the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of CEUS in predicting SLN, and its differences in pathological diagnosis results and related influencing factors were also analyzed.A total of 108 patients with breast cancer were included. And a total of 248 SLNs were detected. Plumbagin The sensitivity of CEUS to the preoperative evaluation of SLN was 84.67%, the specificity was 81.14%, the positive predictive value was 76.08%, and the negative predictive value was 89.27%, the positive likelihood ratio was 4.06, and the negative likelihood ratio was 0.
