The role of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation(auto-HSCT)following high-dose chemotherapy has been validated and accepted as a standard treatment for patients with relapsed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL).However,its clinical efficacy as frontline therapy remains to be elucidated.This study aimed to examine the feasibility of frontline auto-HSCT for newly diagnosed intermediate/high-risk DLBCL patients.We retrospectively reviewed the data of 223 patients treated with frontline auto-HSCT or chemotherapy alone(year 2008-2014)from four hospitals.The median follow-up time was 29.4 months.Between the two treatment arms among the intermediate/high-risk DLBCL patients,the 3-year overall survival(OS)and progression-free survival(PFS)rates of patients given frontline auto-HSCT were 87.6%and 81.9%,respectively,and the chemotherapy-alone group showed 3-year OS and PFS rates of 64.9%and 59.59%,respectively.Compared with the chemotherapy-alone group,the frontline auto-HSCT could eliminate the adverse impact of non-germinal center B-cell(GCB)type.In addition,in the frontline auto-HSCT group,patients who achieved complete response(CR)at auto-HSCT had a longer survival time than those who did not achieve CR.Our results suggested that frontline auto-HSCT could improve the prognosis of intennediate/high-risk DLBCL patients. 展开更多

Like soldiers,frontline medical staff provide a first line of defense and have played a critical role in responses to the outbreak of coronavirus disease-2019 in December 2019.It is important to acknowledge the considerable pressure placed on frontline medical staff in the face of a new type of coronavirus that is highly infectious and for which no specific treatment is available.Here,we review the various kinds of psychological problems afflicting frontline medical staff who are combatting the severe acute respiratory syndrome epidemic.These include anxiety,insomnia,depression,interpersonal difficulties,and post-traumatic stress disorder syndrome.We further present a summary of countermeasures for alleviating these problems based on our findings.These countermeasures include ensuring the provision of adequate protective gear for frontline medical staff,developing timely and clear guidelines,strengthening social support,and providing clear criteria and additional training,focusing on the choice of frontline medical staff.An understanding of the psychological impacts of an epidemic situation and of relevant countermeasures will contribute to reducing the psychological pressures on frontline medical staff.Consequently,they will be able to cope better with outbreaks of infectious diseases in the future,to reduce the psychological pressure of the front-line medical staff,and to improve the treatment level. 展开更多

BACKGROUND Frontline nurses in Wuhan directly fighting severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 diseases are at a high risk of infection and are extremely susceptible to psychological stress,especially due to the global coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)pandemic.The psychological after-effects of this public health emergency on frontline nurses will last for years.AIM To assess factors influencing post-traumatic stress disorder(PTSD)among frontline nurses in Wuhan 6 mo after the COVID-19 pandemic began.METHODS A total of 757 frontline nurses from five hospitals in Wuhan,China,participated in an online survey from July 27 to August 13,2020.This cross-sectional online study used a demographic information questionnaire,the PTSD Checklist for the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale,and the Patient Health Questionnaire-4.The chisquare test and logistic regression were used to analyze the association of demographics,COVID-19-related variables,and PTSD.Logistic regression was also conducted to investigate which variables were associated with PTSD outcomes.RESULTS A total of 13.5%,24.3%,and 21.4%of the frontline nurses showed symptoms of PTSD,depression,and anxiety,respectively.The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the following factors were strongly associated with PTSD:Having a relative,friend,or colleague who died of COVID-19;experiencing stigma;or having psychological assistance needs,depressive symptoms or anxiety.Showing resilience and receiving praise after the COVID-19 outbreak were protective factors.CONCLUSION Frontline nurses still experienced PTSD(13.5%)six months after the COVID-19 outbreak began.Peer support,social support,official recognition,reward mechanisms,exercise,better sleep,and timely provision of information(such as vaccine research progress)by the government via social media,and adequate protective supplies could mitigate the level of PTSD among nurses responding to COVID-19.Stigmatization,depression,and anxiety might be associated with a greater risk of PTSD among nurses. 展开更多

The objective of the study was to compare the efficacy of one topical insecticide-acaricide (Frontline Tri-Act?) and of one collar (Seresto?) against fleas (Ctenocephalides felis) and ticks (Rhipicephalus sanguineus) on dogs exposed to bi-weekly water showering. Twenty four (24) dogs were enrolled in the study. A first set of 16 dogs were acclimatised to their cages from Day 1 to 7 and a second set of 8 dogs from Day 163 to Day 169. The 24 dogs were randomly allocated to three groups (1 to 3). Dogs assigned to Group 1 were not treated and served as negative controls. Dogs assigned to Group 2 received the Seresto? collar on Day 0 and dogs in Group 3 received Frontline Tri-Act? on Days 170 and 198. The dogs were observed hourly for four hours after treatment administration for possible adverse reactions. Dogs in Groups 1 and 2 underwent water showering on Days 14, 28, 42, 56, 70, 84, 98, 112, 126, 143 and 157. Dogs in all groups underwent water showering on Days 173, 185, 199 and 213. Dogs were infested with approximately 100 (±4) adult, unfed C. felis fleas only on Days 177, 190, 203, and 217, in alternance with infestations with 50 adult unfed R. sanguineus on Days 182, 196, 210, and 224, to assess sustained efficacy. Fleas and ticks were removed and counted on 24 and 48 hours ± 2 hours after each infestation, respectively. Frontline Tri-Act? was >99% effective against C. felis following an initial and a second monthly administration on dogs that were water showered bi-weekly. The Seresto? collar was from 68.3% to 92.9% effective against C. felis Days 178 to 218 after collar administration. Frontline Tri-Act? was effective from 87.8% to 100% against ticks whereas Seresto collar was effective from 82.2% to 94.2% from Day 184 to Day 226. 展开更多

Background:Dog bites are common in developing countries including Ghana,with the victims often being children.Although some breeds of dogs have been identified as being more aggressive than others,all dog bites carry a risk of infection.Immediate and initial assessment of the risk for tetanus and rabies infection with appropriate interventions such as wound management and subsequent selection of prophylactic antibiotics are essential in the management of dog bites.This study examined the management of patients with dog bites by frontline service providers at primary healthcare facilities in the Greater Accra Region,Ghana.Methods:We conducted a cross-sectional study in 66 public health facilities in the Greater Accra Region from July 2014 to April 2015.Up to four frontline service providers were randomly selected to participate from each facility.A structured questionnaire was administered to all consenting participants.Continuous variables were presented as means and standard deviations.The frontline service providers’knowledge was assessed as a discrete variable and values obtained presented as percentages and proportions.The chi-square test of proportions was used to determine any significant associations between the various categories of the frontline service providers and their knowledge about the management of rabies.Results:Regarding the frontline service providers’knowledge about rabies,57.8%(134/232)were correct in that the rabies virus is the causative agent of rabies,39.2%(91/232)attributed it to a dog bite,2.6%(6/232)did not know the cause,and one person(0.4%)attributed it to the herpes virus.Only 15.5%(36/232)knew the incubation period in dogs and the period required to observe for signs of a rabies infection.With respect to the administration of rabies immunoglobulin,42.2%(98/232)of the frontline service providers did not know how to administer it.Of the facilities visited,76%(50/66)did not have the rabies vaccines and 44%(102/232)of frontline service providers did not know where to get the rabies vaccines from.Most of the service providers(87.9%;204/232)had never reported either a dog bite or a suspected case of rabies.Overall,there was gross underreporting of dog bites and suspected rabies cases at public healthcare facilities in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana.Conclusions:In view of the high morbidity and mortality associated with bites from rabid dogs and the poor knowledge and practices of frontline service providers,there is an urgent need for capacity-building such as training in the management of dog bites and subsequent potential rabies infection. 展开更多

"The grassland became sandy as the grass disappeared. After that we struggled to continue with our way of life, even though generations of herdsmen had lived on this pasture before us," he recalled. Finally, the ethnically Mongolian herdsman in Hanggin Banner in Ordos, north China's Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, moved to a new community for herdspeople in the banner along with his fellow villagers in 2006. The relocation was part of a grassland restoration project launched by the local govermment. 展开更多

Introduction: Frontline health workers who work in COVID-19 isolation treatment centers are susceptible to developing mental health issues due to the overwhelming workload and stress associated with their job. Thus understanding their lived experiences provides insights that helps alleviate health worker burnout and improving their quality of life thereby leading to an efficient delivery of health care services during a pandemic. Aim: To understand the lived experiences of front line health workers during the COVID-19 pandemics at Levy Mwanawasa Teaching University Hospital. Design and Methods: A qualitative interpretative phenomenological study design was used. Purposive sampling method was adopted to select the 14 participants who took part in the study. The data were collected through face-to-face, audio-taped interviews using an in-depth interview guide, after which the responses were transcribed verbatim before using NVIVO to generate codes. The data were analyzed using thematic method. Results: The lived experiences of the participants were found to be mainly negative with few positive experiences. Their lived experiences were mainly negative emotional and psychological experiences including fear, anger, depression, frustration, anxiety and sadness. The thoughts that were identified included thoughts of surviving through the pandemic, thoughts of getting infected, and dying. The frontline health workers also experienced some personal and professional changes as they offered health services in the COVID-19 wards. The personal changes reported included;social limitations and collapse of extra income business while the professional changes included a change in the way health services were delivered, a gain in knowledge and skills and shaping of a career path. The main challenges experienced were limited resources (man power, resuscitation equipment, drugs, personal protective equipment), limited literature on the disease and limited social interactions. Conclusion and Recommendations: Relevant stakeholders should come on board in order to offer support during a pandemic or a similar situation so as to better the experience of frontline health workers with particular attention directed towards the provision of adequate resources to enable them deliver their services effectively. Frontline health workers perspectives and opinions should be taken into account by the institution’s administrators and policymakers when planning for and managing a pandemic. 展开更多

Nest predation and avian brood parasitism are the main sources of nest failure in many passerine birds.Large predators threaten both brood and parents,whereas brood parasites pose only a danger to eggs or nestlings.The fan-tailed gerygone Gerygone flavolateralis from New Caledonia is subjected to high rates of nest predation by the New Caledonian crow Corvus moneduloides(responsible for about 20-40%of predation)and moderate rates of brood parasitism by the shining bronze-cuckoo Chalcites lucidus(parasitizing about 18%of nests),which also depredates nests that are too advanced for parasitism(13%of nests).To test if fan-tailed gerygones are able to discriminate predators from brood parasites,we presented 3 bird models at active gerygone nests:a brood parasite/small nest predator(shining bronze-cuckoo),a large nest predator(crow),and a small non-native bird(common chaffinch Fringilla coelebs),which is unknown to the gerygone,as a control.We assessed the response of adult gerygones to the presentation of each model by measuring the minimum approach distance,number of alarm calls,number of attacks,and time to first nest visit after the presentation(latency).Adult gerygones often attacked the cuckoo,approached but never attacked the chaffinch and always avoided the crow.Latency was shorter after an attack response and during brooding,but similar among models.We did not find any link between the cuckoo model presentation and later ejection of cuckoo nestlings.We conclude that adult fan-tailed gerygones discriminate between different models and respond accordingly to the level of threat but do not show awareness of parasitism risk and increase of nestling ejection rates following exposure to the cuckoo model. 展开更多
