[Strolling through the glorious years of Alveolar Surgery, bravely stepping onto the path of practice and innovation].

This article summarizes and organizes relevant publications in journals, along with a review of medical history, systematically summarizing the development process of dental alveolar surgery in China. The initial establishment phase (1935-1952) marked the starting point of Chinese Alveolar Surgery. Despite the impact of wars, it laid the foundation for subsequent research and practice. During the early development phase (1953-1966), the "Chinese Journal of Stomatology" was founded, which promoted the development of Alveolar Surgery. Research focused on tooth extraction methods and complications. Tooth Transplantation and Preprosthetic Surgery gradually began to take off. The stagnant phase (1967-1977) occurred due to the interruption of international exchanges, leading to an almost complete halt in the development of Alveolar Surgery. Entering the rapid catch-up phase (1978-1985), Alveolar Surgery scholars in China began striving to overcome the stagnation of the previous decade. While some progress was made, no significant innovative achievements emerged. In the scientific development phase (1986-2010), clinical research, basic experiments, and paper writing in modern Chinese Alveolar Surgery began to adhere to scientific standards with the rise of experimental medicine. The exploration and innovation stage (2011-2023) is the current development phase, during which Chinese Aveolar Surgery has reached its peak, making substantial progress in technology, clinical practices, and basic research, gradually reaching or even surpassing international advanced levels. Looking back at the development history in China, we can find the wisdom and hard work of the older generation of Alveolar Surgery scholars. However, contemporary challenges and issues, such as standardizing technology, promoting clinical practices, and talent cultivation, need to be addressed by present-day Alveolar Surgery professionals as they forge ahead.

[Efficacy and safety of programmed death-1 inhibitor in the treatment of relapsed/refractory classical Hodgkin's lymphoma].

Objective: This retrospective, single-center study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of programmed death-1 (PD-1) inhibitors, either as monotherapy or in combination with chemotherapy, in the management of relapse/refractory classical Hodgkin's lymphoma (R/R cHL) . Methods: A total of 35 patients with R/R cHL who received treatment at the Institute of Hematology and Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College from September 2016 to December 2020 were enrolled in this study. Among them, 17 patients received PD-1 inhibitor monotherapy (PD-1 inhibitor group), while 18 patients received a combination of PD-1 inhibitor and chemotherapy (PD-1 inhibitor + chemotherapy group). Clinical data and follow-up information were retrospectively analyzed, and survival analysis was conducted using the Kaplan-Meier method and Cox proportional hazards model. Results: The median age of the 35 patients with R/R cHL was 29 years (range: 11-61 years), with 54.3% being male. According to the Ann Arbor staging system, 62.9% of patients presented with advanced (stage Ⅲ/Ⅳ) disease, and 48.6% had extranodal involvement. Before PD-1 inhibitor therapy, the median number of prior lines of therapy was 2 (range: 1-3). Objective responses were observed in 28 patients, including 22 complete response (CR) cases, resulting in an overall response rate (ORR) of 80.0% and a CR rate of 62.9%. Specifically, the ORR and CR rates were 64.7% and 58.8%, respectively, in the PD-1 inhibitor group and 94.4% and 66.7%, respectively, in the PD-1 inhibitor + chemotherapy group. Among the 18 patients who underwent sequential autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) [13 CR and five partial response (PR) cases], eight patients received PD-1 inhibitor therapy after auto-HSCT as consolidation therapy. All patients maintained a CR status after transplantation, and they exhibited significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) rates compared with those who did not undergo sequential auto-HSCT (4-year PFS rates: 100% vs 53.5% ; P=0.041). The incidence of immune-related adverse events was 29%, with only one patient experiencing grade≥3 adverse reactions, which indicated a favorable safety profile for the treatment approach. Conclusions: PD-1 inhibitor monotherapy demonstrates notable efficacy and sustained response in patients with R/R cHL. PD-1 inhibitors combined with chemotherapy significantly improve response rates. Additionally, for salvage therapy-sensitive patients, consolidation treatment with PD-1 inhibitors after auto-HSCT exhibits the potential for prolonging PFS.

[Efficacy and prognostic factors of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation treatment for T lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma].

Objective: To analyze the efficacy and prognostic factors of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) for treating T lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (T-ALL/LBL) . Methods: This study retrospectively evaluated 119 adolescent and adult patients with T-ALL/LBL from January 2006 to January 2020 at Peking University Third Hospital and Institute of Hematology and Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences. Patients were divided into chemotherapy-only, chemotherapy followed by allo-HSCT, and chemotherapy followed by autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (auto-HSCT) groups according to the consolidation regimen, and the 5-year overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) rates of each group were compared. Results: Among 113 patients with effective follow-up, 96 (84.9%) patients achieved overall response (ORR), with 79 (69.9%) having complete response (CR) and 17 (15.0%) having partial response (PR), until July 2022. The analysis of the 96 ORR population revealed that patients without transplantation demonstrated poorer outcomes compared with the allo-HSCT group (5-year OS: 11.4% vs 55.6%, P=0.001; 5-year PFS: 8.9% vs 54.2%, P<0.001). No difference was found in 5-year OS and 5-year PFS between the allo-HSCT and auto-HSCT groups (P=0.271, P=0.197). The same results were achieved in the CR population. Allo-HSCT got better 5-year OS (37.5% vs 0) for the 17 PR cases (P=0.064). Different donor sources did not affect 5-year OS, with sibling of 61.1% vs hap-haploidentical of 63.6% vs unrelated donor of 50.0% (P>0.05). No significant difference was found in the treatment response in the early T-cell precursor acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (ETP) and non-ETP populations. The ETP group demonstrated lower 5-year OS compared with the non-ETP group in the chemotherapy alone group (0 vs 12.6%, P=0.045), whereas no significant difference was found between the ETP and non-ETP groups in the allo-HSCT group (75.0% vs 62.9%, P=0.852). Multivariate analysis revealed that high serum lactate dehydrogenase level, without transplantation, and no CR after chemotherapy induction were independently associated with inferior outcomes (P<0.05) . Conclusion: Allo-HSCT could be an effective consolidation therapy for adult and adolescent patients with T-ALL/LBL. Different donor sources did not affect survival. Allo-HSCT may overcome the adverse influence of ETP-ALL/LBL on OS.

[Clinical and biological features and prognosis of patients with leukemic non-nodal mantle cell lymphoma].

Objective: To investigate the clinical, biological and prognostic characteristics of leukemic non-nodal mantle cell lymphoma (nnMCL). Methods: The clinical data of 14 patients with nnMCL and 238 patients with classical mantle cell lymphoma (cMCL) in Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from November 2000 to October 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Among the 14 patients with nnMCL, there were 9 males and 5 females, with the age [M (Q1, Q3)] of 57.5 (52.3, 67.0) years. Among the 238 patients with cMCL, there were 187 males and 51 females, with the age of 58.0 (51.0, 65.3) years. The clinical and biological characteristics of the two groups were recorded and compared. Follow-up and efficacy evaluation were conducted by re-examination during hospital stay and telephone follow-up and so on. Results: The proportion of CD200 expression in nnMCL patients was 8/14, which was higher than that in cMCL patients [14.6% (19/130)] (P=0.001). The proportion of CD23 expression in nnMCL patients was 8/14, which was higher than that in cMCL patients [13.5% (23/171)] (P<0.001). The proportion of CD5 expression in nnMCL patients was 10/14, which was lower than that in cMCL patients [97.4% (184/189)] (P=0.001). The proportion of CD38 expression in nnMCL patients was 4/14, which was lower than that in cMCL patients [69.6% (112/161)] (P=0.005). The expression proportion of sex-determining region of Y chromosome-related high-mobility-group box 11 (SOX11) in nnMCL patients was 1/5, which was lower than that in cMCL patients [77.9% (60/77)] (P=0.014). The proportion of immunoglobulin heavy chain variable region (IGHV) mutations in nnMCL patients was 11/11, which was higher than that in cMCL patients [26.0% (13/50)] (P<0.001). As of April 11, 2021, the follow-up time for nnMCL and cMCL patients was 31 (8-89) months and 48 (0-195) months, respectively. Among the 14 nnMCL patients, 6 patients were still under observation, and 8 patients were treated. The overall response rate (ORR) was 8/8, including 4 patients with complete remission and 4 patients with partial response. The median overall survival and median progression-free survival were not reached in nnMCL patients. In the cMCL group, 50.0% (112/224) patients achieved a complete response, 24.6% (55/224) patients achieved a partial response, and ORR was 74.6% (167/224). There was no statistically significant difference in ORR between the two groups (P=0.205). Conclusions: nnMCL patients have an indolent progression, with higher expression rates of CD23 and CD200 and lower expression rates of SOX11, CD5 and CD38. Most patients have IGHV mutations, with a relatively good prognosis, and"watch and wait"approach is an optional treatment.

[Gray zone lymphoma: five cases report and literature review].

Objective: To investigate the clinical and pathological features, treatment, and prognosis of gray zone lymphoma (GZL) . Methods: From July 2, 2013, to February 10, 2021, the clinical and pathological features, treatment, and outcomes of five patients with GZL at the Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences were studied retrospectively. Results: There were one male and 4 females, with a median age of 28 (16-51) years at diagnosis. Four patients had mediastinal (thymic) involvement, two of which had superior vena cava obstruction syndrome, and 3 patients had extra-nodal involvement. There was one case with a limited Ann Arbor stage and 4 cases with a progressive stage. Three patients had cHL-like pathomorphology with scattered Hodgkin-like cells, strongly positive for CD20, positive for CD30, and CD15 was negative; the other two patients had both cHL and DLBCL morphology, with some areas resembling Hodgkin cells and some areas resembling immunoblasts, strongly positive for CD30, and CD15 but negative CD20. Two patients were treated with cHL-like regimens for induction and achieved only partial remission; after salvage therapy with enhanced DLBCL-like regimens, all achieved complete remission (CR) . Three patients were treated with enhanced DLBCL-like immunochemotherapy regimens for induction, and two patients were effective, one of whom achieved CR. Four patients who did not achieve CR were given second or third-line salvage therapy, and all of them recovered. One patient lost parity, one died of disease progression at 35.9 months after diagnosis, and the remaining three maintained sustained remission. Conclusions: GZL is uncommon, usually affects younger patients, is mediastinal and is diagnosed using path morphology and immunophenotype. Patients with newly diagnosed GZL appear to be more sensitive to DLBCL-like immunochemotherapy regimens; relapsed or refractory patients were tended with non-cross-resistant combination chemotherapy or with new drugs.

[Large B-cell lymphoma with IRF4 rearrangement: six case reports and a literature review].

Objective: To study the clinical, histopathological, and genetic features of large B-cell lymphoma (LBCL) with IRF4 rearrangement. Methods: Six patients presenting at our center between December 2017 and October 2021 were evaluated by pathological examination, fluorescence in situ hybridization, and next-generation sequencing. The relevant literature was reviewed. Results: ①The study sample included three males and three females with a median age of 33 years. Three tumors were in the tonsils, two in the lymphoid nodes, and one in the dorsal lump. All patients were treated using the RCDOP (rituximab, cyclophosphamide, liposomal doxorubicin, vincristine, prednisone) regimen. All of them were alive at the time of follow-up in November 2021. ②Microscopic examination showed an entirely follicular pattern in one case and an entirely diffused pattern in 5 cases. The tumor cells were medium to large, and most of the lesions were dilatative with brisk mitotic activity (n=five cases) and no starry sky pattern (n=6 cases) . ③Four cases exhibited a GCB phenotype, and the other two exhibited a non-GCB phenotype. All of the cases were positive for CD20, PAX-5, MUM, and BCL6, and negative for CD5. Moreover, CD10, BCL2, and c-MYC were positive in 4, 3, and 2 cases, respectively.④IRF4 gene rearrangement was identified in all cases, BCL6 gene rearrangement was detected in 5 cases, and 2 cases were positive. BCL2 and MYC gene rearrangement were performed in 5 cases, all negative. ⑤Three paraffin tissue samples were used for next-generation sequencing, and lymphoma-related gene mutations such as IRF4, TP53, IGLL5, and MYD88 were detected in 3 cases. Conclusions: LBCL with IRF4 rearrangement is a rare entity with unique clinical, pathological, and genetic characteristics. This entity's pathogenesis, treatment options, and long-term prognosis still need to be explored further.

[Dose-enhanced immunochemotherapy followed by first-line autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation for young patients with high-risk aggressive B-cell lymphoma: an efficacy and prognostic factor analysis].

Objective: This study aimed to determine the efficacy of dose-enhanced immunochemotherapy followed by autologous peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (ASCT) in young patients with newly diagnosed high-risk aggressive B-cell lymphoma. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted to examine the clinical and survival data of young patients with high-risk aggressive B-cell lymphoma who received dose-enhanced immunochemotherapy and ASCT as first-line treatment between January 2011 and December 2018 in Blood Diseases Hospital. Results: A total of 63 patients were included in the study. The median age range was 40 (14-63) years old. In terms of the induction therapy regimen, 52 cases received R-DA-EP (D) OCH, and the remaining 11 received R-HyperCVAD/R-MA. Sixteen (25.4% ) patients achieved partial response in the mid-term efficacy assessment, and ten of them were evaluated as complete response after transplantation. The median follow-up was 50 (8-112) months, and the 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) rate and overall survival (OS) rate were (83.9±4.7) % and (90.4±3.7) % , respectively. Univariate analysis demonstrated that age-adjusted international prognostic index ≥2 scores was a negative prognostic factor for OS (P=0.039) , and bone marrow involvement (BMI) was an adverse prognostic factor for OS (P<0.001) and PFS (P=0.001) . However, multivariate analysis confirmed that BMI was the only independent negative predictor of OS (P=0.016) and PFS (P=0.001) . Conclusions: The use of dose-enhanced immunochemotherapy in combination with ASCT as first-line therapy in the treatment of young, high-risk aggressive B-cell lymphoma results in good long-term outcomes, and BMI remains an adverse prognostic factor.

[Clinical and biological characteristics of non-IgM lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma].

Objective: The study aims to explore the clinical and biological characteristics of patients with non-IgM lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma (LPL) . Methods: The clinical data of 340 patients with LPL admitted to the Institute of Hematology & Blood Diseases Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College were collected retrospectively, including 23 cases of the non-IgM LPL and 317 cases of the Waldenström's macroglobulinemia (WM) , from July 1993 to August 2020. The clinical and biological characteristics of the two groups were compared. Results: Among 23 patients with the non-IgM type LPL, two patients secreted monoclonal IgA, 14 patients secreted monoclonal IgG, and seven patients did not secrete monoclonal immunoglobulin. The median age of the non-IgM LPL and WM were both 62 (35-81) years old. Compared with the WM group, the proportion of women (56.5% vs 27.3%, P=0.007) , the proportion of splenomegaly (60.1% vs 43.8%, P=0.100) , and the proportion of extranodal invasion (21.7% vs 12.3%, P=0.672) in non-IgM LPL group were higher. Eighteen patients were tested for MYD88 gene mutation, and the overall mutation rate of MYD88 was 55.6%. In the non-IgM LPL group, a total of 17 patients received treatment, which had a comparable proportion (94.4% vs 92.7%, P=0.488) to the WM group. Sixteen patients were evaluated for efficacy, and the overall remission rate of the first-line treatment was 87.5%. The median follow-up time was 33.9 (3.5-125.1) months, and the median PFS and OS were both not reached. The 3-year PFS and OS rates were 71.4% and 68.9%, respectively. In the WM group, the median PFS was 66.2 months and the median OS was 78.1 months. Compared with the WM group, in the non-IgM group no significant differences in PFS (P=0.340) and OS (P=0.544) were seen. Conclusion: The clinical and biological characteristics of the non-IgM LPL and WM patients were similar. However, the proportion of women and extranodal involvement were higher in the non-IgM LPL group. The survival and prognosis of the non-IgM LPL patients were similar to those of the WM patients.

Parameterized Analysis of Craniocerebral Injury Caused by Fist.

ABSTRACT: Objective Based on the theory of biomechanics, the finite element method was used to study the injury characteristics of different parts of brain hit by fist with different force and to predict the risk of craniocerebral injury, in order to provide reference for actual medical protection and forensic identification. Methods The finite element model of fist was constructed by using DICOM data modeling method and related software, and the effective mass and speed of fist were used to represent the kinetic energy of fist, and combined with human finite element model THUMS 4.02, the characteristics of craniocerebral injury caused by frontal and lateral blows were parametrically simulated. Results The probability of direct death from a blow to the head was low, but as fist power increased, so did the risk of craniocerebral injury. The characteristics of craniocerebral injury were also significantly different with the different fist hitting head locations. When the frontal area was attacked, the maximum equivalent stress of skull was 122.40 MPa, while that of brain tissue was 4.31 kPa. When the temporal area was attacked, the maximum equivalent stress of skull was 71.53 MPa, while that of brain tissue was 7.09 kPa. Conclusion The characteristics and risks of skull fracture and brain tissue injury are different when different parts of the brain are hit by fist. When the frontal area is hit, the risk of skull fracture is significantly higher than when the temporal area is hit. The risk of brain tissue injury is the opposite. The position with the highest probability of skull fracture is generally the place where the skull is directly impacted, and with the conduction of stress waves, it will spread to other parts of the skull, while the position with the highest risk of brain tissue injury is not the place where the brain is directly impacted.

[Central nervous system toxicity caused by bortezomib: five case reports and a review of literature].

Objective: To investigate the clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment of the central nervous system (CNS) toxicity caused by bortezomib. Methods: This study reports five new cases of CNS toxicity caused by bortezomib to elucidate its characteristics along with a review of the literature. Results: CNS toxicity caused by bortezomib presents in three clinical forms: syndrome of inappropriate antidiuresis (SIAD) , posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES) , and central fever, which is the most common clinical manifestation. Four of our five patients developed central fever after the administration of bortezomib, manifested as persistent high fever, anhidrosis, and absence of infective foci; the symptom could be improved by discontinuance of bortezomib. Of these patients, three concurrently presented with refractory hyponatremia and one was clearly diagnosed with SIAD. The bortezomib could have caused damages to the hypothalamus and induced both central fever and SIAD. In addition, one patient was diagnosed with PRES due to disturbance of consciousness and epilepsy after taking bortezomib. After discontinuation of bortezomib, the symptoms disappeared and did not recur. We also found that thrombocytopenia may be related to the severity of the CNS toxicity of bortezomib. Conclusion: Cases of CNS toxicity of bortezomib are extremely rare and present as SIAD, PRES and central fever. Early detection and treatment of bortezomib are very important to prevent irreversible neurological complications.

Chrysin induces osteogenic differentiation of human dental pulp stem cells.

OBJECTIVES: As an ideal cell source for tissue engineering and bone defect repair, dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) have good osteogenic differentiation potential. Chrysin, a flavonoid extracted from oroxylum seeds, has been proven to promote bone formation of bone marrow stem cells. However, the effect of chrysin on osteogenic differentiation of DPSCs remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the role of Chrysin in promoting osteogenic differentiation of DPSCs and in DPSC-based bone formation. MATERIAL AND METHODS: We investigated the effects of chrysin on DPSCs from patients by CCK-8 assay, Alizarin Red S staining, qPCR and Western blotting. The effects of chrysin on DPSC-based bone formation in a heterotopic osteogenesis model in nude mice and a rat calvarial defect model were also performed. Finally, we investigated the mechanism of chrysin-treated DPSCs by proteomics. RESULTS: Chrysin upregulated the expression of osteogenic proteins and induced osteogenic differentiation of DPSCs. Moreover, chrysin induced abundant ß-TCP-induced formation of mineralized bone tissue and promoted DPSC-based bone formation in a heterotopic osteogenesis model in nude mice and a rat calvarial defect model. Proteomics showed that upregulation of the Smad3 was closely related to osteogenic differentiation. Inhibiting of Smad3 activation by a Smad3 inhibitor could reverse the chrysin-mediated increases in the expression levels of osteogenic genes and osteogenic induction of DPSCs. CONCLUSIONS: Our study implies the intriguing potential of chrysin-treated DPSCs in bone regeneration and bone defect repair.

[Analysis of Influencing Factors of Single Camera Photogrammetry in Forensic Three-Dimensional Reconstruction].

ABSTRACT: Objective To evaluate the influence of factors such as the selection of equipment, focal length and the selection of reconstruction quality in the reconstruction software on the reconstruction results of single camera photogrammetry and provide reference for the forensic application of single camera photogrammetry. Methods The 19 skulls were measured by traditional measurement method and single camera photogrammetry. The differences between the two measurement methods and within the group with same equipment but different focal length were analyzed. One skull and one corpse were selected as the research objects. According to the reconstruction quality selection conditions in the photogrammetric software, the experimental group was divided into five grades. The model reconstructed by optical scanner was defined as reference model, while the model reconstructed by single camera photogrammetry was defined as test model. The test model was aligned with the reference model, 3D deviation analysis was carried out and the mean error and root mean square （RMS） values were calculated. Results The differences between EOS 7D zoom group and traditional measurement, and within the group with same equipment had statistical significance （P<0.05）. The mean error value and minimum RMS value of the skull reconstructed by single camera photogrammetry and the three-dimensional model of the corpse existed in the medium quality group, and the trend was basically the same. Conclusion The equipment and focal length has no obvious influence on the results of single camera photogrammetry. Lower reconstruction quality can easily cause distortion, while higher reconstruction quality can easily generate noise, so medium quality is preferred.

Exploring of the Mechanism of Rib Fracture Caused by Landing on Different Parts of the Trunk after Falls from Height Using Finite Element Method.

ABSTRACT: Objective To study the mechanism of rib fracture caused by landing on different parts of the trunk using finite element method, and to provide some new techniques and new ideas for the reconstruction of the whole process of falls from height. Methods The finite element method was used to study the rib fracture of human security model THUMS4.0 caused by landing on different parts of the trunk. Then the model was compared with actual cases and the mechanism of rib fracture caused by falls from height was analyzed from a biomechanical point of view. Results There were some differences in the stress and strain distribution as well as the rib fracture sites when different parts touched the ground. Ribs on both sides of the body were fractured when the front of the trunk touched the ground, and the fractures were mainly located in the junction of the ribs and costal cartilage and the midaxillary line area. When the right anterior part of the trunk touched the ground, rib fracture occurred first on the side that touched the ground, and rib fractures were mainly located in the area from the right midaxillary line to the posterior axillary line, and junction of ribs on both sides and costal cartilage. When the back of the trunk touched the ground, the fracture sites were mainly located on the back of the ribs on both sides. When the right posterior part of the trunk touched the ground, multiple rib fractures were likely to occur in the parts that touched the ground. The plastic strains were mainly concentrated at the fracture sites, while the von Mises stresses were not only concentrated at the fracture sites, but also at other sites. Conclusion There are some differences in rib fracture location sites and injury mechanisms when different parts of the trunk touch the ground.

Evaluation of 3D Measuring Methods for Body Surface Damage and Scars.

ABSTRACT: Objective To assess the accuracy and reliability of the two 3D measuring methods, structured-light scanning and single-camera photogrammetry in forensic body surface damage and scar measurement. Methods The measuring results of 86 injuries by the ruler method, structured-light scanning and single-camera photogrammetry were compared and evaluated. The area measuring results of 13 simulated scars by the structured-light scanning, single-camera photogrammetry, Photoshop lasso pixel method and PDF reading software were compared and evaluated. The time consumed was recorded. The known specification information of the stickers was used as the standard value to compare the measuring accuracy of the ruler method, structural-light scanning and single-camera photogrammetry, and to calculate the root mean square error （RMSE）. The consistency evaluation of intraclass correlation coefficient （ICC） for the repeatability of 3 measuring results obtained by different operators and the same operator. Results The differences in results of the two 3D measuring methods and the ruler method had no statistical significance; the differences between measuring results made by the structured-light scanning, single-camera photogrammetry and PDF reading software and that of the Photoshop lasso pixel method had no statistical significance. The post-processing of the single-camera photogrammetry consumed more time than that of other methods. When the long-distance group （10-40 cm） was measured, the results obtained by the ruler method were shorter than the standard value. The RMSE value results were structured-light scanning < single-camera photogrammetry < ruler method. The ICC value intragroup and intergroup were greater than 0.99. Conclusion Both structured-light scanning and single-camera photogrammetry can be applied in recording and measuring forensic body surface damage. The former has better performance in measurement accuracy and stability, while the latter has better color performance but longer post-processing time.

[The prognostic significance of POD24 in 106 cases with splenic marginal lymphoma with bone marrow invasion].

Objective: To explore the effect of progression of disease within 24 months (POD24) on overall survival (OS) of splenic marginal lymphoma (SMZL) with bone marrow invasion, and to compare the clinical characteristics between POD24 SMZL with non-POD24 SMZL patients. Methods: The SMZL patients with bone marrow invasions were retrospectively analyzed between January 2002 and January 2017 treated in our institute, and the patients with sufficient follow-up time to judge POD24 were evaluated the clinical characteristics and prognosis, patients who died of non-progressive factors were excluded. Results: 106 patients were enrolled with a median age of 57 (25-79) years old. ①Clinical characteristics: All patients presented with bone marrow invasion and splenomegaly, 59.4% (63/106) with huge spleen, 14.8% (15/101) with hepatomegaly. Complex karyotype were found in 22.7% (18/79) patients; 13q deletion, 11q (ATM) deletion, 17p (TP53) deletion, and CEP12 abnormality patients presented with the percentage of 5.1% (4/78) , 1.3% (1/72) , 2.5% (2/80) , and 7.5% (4/53) , respectively.②Survival analysis: Univariate analysis showed that POD24, HGB less than 100 g/L and FISH detection of trisomy 12 were poor prognostic factors of OS. Multivariate analysis showed that only POD24 had independent prognostic significance[HR=20.116 (95%CI 2.226-181.820) , P=0.008]. ③Subgroup features: Patients with POD24 had significantly higher rates of mediastinal lymphadenopathy (63.6%vs 18.9%, P=0.005) and complex karyotype (50.0%vs 17.9%, P=0.024) than those without POD24. While the incidence of abdominal lymphadenopathy, anemia, thrombocytopenia, the lower albumin, and the increasing lactate dehydrogenase were higher in POD24 patients, but with no statistically difference. Conclusion: POD24 is an independent prognostic factor of the OS in SMZL. SMZL patients with mediastinal lymphadenopathy and complex karyotypes when diagnosed have a higher risk of POD24.
