    Although Hodgkin's lymphoma (HL) is highly curable, a minority of patients still presented as  refractory to the frontline treatment or relapse after completion remission.For refractory or relapsed HL (rrHL), salvage chemotherapy followed by hematopoietic stem cell transplantation  remains the standard of care. PET/CT emerged as a valid measurement for response-adapted treatment strategies in rrHL. Moreover, recent knowledges  on the pathophysiology of rrHL have  promoted the development of novel targeted approach, some of that  have shown promise in the early clinical trials.In this review, we summarize the current treatment strategies for rrHL.

    Diffuse large Bcell lymphoma (DLBCL) is a heterogeneous lymphoid malignancy and the most commonly occurring subtype of nonHodgkin's lymphoma (NHL), with increasing incidence, which is great harmful to human health. More than 60% of DLBLC patients can be cured with standard RCHOP regimens, however, approximately 30% of patients will develop relapsed/refractory disease that remains a major cause of mortality. With recent advances in gene expression profiling, the indepth study of the molecular basis of chemotherapy resistance, optimization of salvage chemotherapy regimen, intervention of novel drugs and using chimeric antigen receptor Tcell therapy, and so on, these therapies might provide hope for individual accurate treatment of relapsed/refractory DLBCL. In this review, we focus on the progress of novel drugs and CART therapy in relapsed/refractory DLBCL.

    Objective  To investigate the predictive value of two methods of platelet function detection for VerifyNow and Multiplate in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS).Methods  Verify Now and Multiplate were used to detect the platelet reactivity of patients with ACS.   The relationship between platelet reactivity and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) was explored, including allcause death, non fatal myocardial infarction, non fatal stroke, stent thrombosis and revascularization. Results  After one year of followup for 120 patients with ACS, 18 patients (15%) had MACE. The platelet reactivity detected by the two methods was both associated with MACE. Logistic regression analysis found that only VerifyNow could predict the occurrence of MACE (P=0.01). VerifyNow detection showed that the incidence of MACE in patients with high platelet response (HPR) was 16%, and the incidence of MACE without HPR was 7% (OR=2.6, 95%CI=1.54.4,P=0.001). The incidence of MACE in patients with HPR was 13%, and the incidence of MACE without HPR was 9% (OR=1.5, 95%CI=0.92.5,P=0.11) without HPR. Conclusion  This study demonstrated VerifyNow could predict the adverse outcomes better in patients with ACS than Multiplate.

    Objective  To explore the relationships between neutropiltolymphocyte ratio (NLR), platelettolymphocyte ratio (PLR) and disease activity in Sjogren's syndrome (SS). Methods  Clinical data of sixtytwo patients with SS and fiftyone healthy controls were collected. NLR and PLR were calculated and compared between two groups through nonparametric test. Correlation among NLR, PLR and other data in SS patients were analyzed by pearson correlation and multiple linear regression. EULAR SS disease activity index (ESSDAI) was used to assess disease activity. The ROC curve was drawn to evaluate whether NLR or PLR could reflect disease activity in SS. Results   In SS patients, NLR and PLR levels were higher than those of healthy controls. Both NLR and PLR were positively correlated with globulin, IgG, IgA, RF and negatively correlated with total cholesterol (TC) and low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDLC). NLR was positively correlated with PLR as well. Multiple linear regression analysis showed NLR was correlated with PLR, TC and LDLC, while PLR was correlated with NLR, globulin, IgG and TC. The ROC curve showed PLR could reflect disease activity with higher specificity. Conclusion  NLR and PLR were correlated with SS severity and may be helpful in assessing  the  disease activity.

    Objective   To investigate the value of combined detection of serum neutrophil gelationase associated lipocalin(NGAL) and Cystatin C(CysC)in predicting the contrast induced nephropathy(CIN) after percutaneous coronary intervention. Methods  A total of 114 patients with suspected coronary heart disease underwent PCI were included.  The  patients  were divided into two groups: CIN (12 cases) and nonCIN (102 cases). The level of SCr, CysC and NGAL were measured before and after operation. The area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) was used to assess the sensitivity of NGAL and CysC in early diagnosis of CIN.Results   The serum NGAL of CIN was significantly higher than that  of  nonCIN at 6 hours after operation(P=0.01). The serum CysC of CIN was significantly higher than that of  nonCIN at 12 hours after operation (P<0.01). The serum NGAL and CysC of CIN were significantly higher than those of nonCIN at 12 hours,24 hours,48 hours after operation(P<0.01). However, the  serum  SCr and CysC of CIN were not significantly higher than those of nonCIN at 6 hours after operation(P=0.46,P=0.67). The area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) of NGAL,CysC and SCr were 0.81,0.75 and 0.57 at 6 hours after operation. The AUC of NGAL,CysC and SCr were 0.89,0.83 and 0.8 at 12 hours after operation. The AUC of NGAL,CysC and SCr were 0.88,0.86 and 0.85 at 24 hours after operation. The AUC of NGAL,CysC and SCr were 0.77,0.7 and 0.88 at 48 hours after operation.Conclusion   For patients with coronary heart disease after PCI, serum NGAL and CysC levels can early reflect the kidney function and give an early prediction of CIN.

    Objective  To evaluate the efficacy and safety of thrombolysis with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) for patients with acute mild ischemic infarction. Methods  PubMed, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Embase, Ovid, Sinomed, Wanfang Data, VIP and Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) databases were searched from inception to 31st April, 2017 to comprehensively collect randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of rtPA for acute mild ischemic infarction. The relevant data were extracted by two reviewers independently. The methodological quality of the included RCTs  were assessed according to the Cochrane Handbook. Then, metaanalysis was performed by RevMan5.3 software. Pooled effect sizes were calculated using the fixed effects model when  I2<50%,P>0.1, otherwise the random effects model were applied. Mean difference (MD) and 95% confidence interval (CI) were applied on the measurement data and Odds risk (OR) and CI on the enumeration data. Five RCTs involving 3 070 patients met the inclusion criteria. Results  A total of 5 RCTs involving 4 401 patients were finally included. Trial group were given rtPA while no rtPA groups, i.e., control group, were given the standard antiplatelet therapy or other therapies. The results of metaanalysis showed that more patients in the rtPA groups had mRS scores of 0 to 1 than no rtPA groups did  at 90 days after thrombolytic therapy (OR=0.80,95%CI=0.611.06,P>0.05). As to safety, rtPA group did not show a notable change of incidence of death compared with no rtPA groups after thrombolysis (OR=0.66,95%CI0.271.64,P>0.05). However, hemorrhagic transformation (HT) rates between two groups showed significance (OR=14.09,95%CI=5.3237.31,P<0.01). Conclusion  Multiple evidence suggests that rtPA group had similar outcomes as patients receiving the standard antiplate therapy and as not receiving thrombolysis. In addition, rtPA had hemorrhagic tendency for thrombolysis purpose in patients with acute mild ischemic infarction.
