Since the advent of rituximab as the first successful immunotherapy for B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma over two decades ago, a plethora of new immunotherapeutic approaches to treat lymphoma has ensued. Four of the most exciting classes of immunotherapies include:chimeric antigen receptor T-cells, bispecific antibodies, immune checkpoint inhibitors, and vaccines. However, with addition of these novel therapies the appropriate timing of treatment, optimal patient population, duration of therapy, toxicity, and cost must be considered. In this review, we describe the most-promising immunotherapeutic approaches for the treatment of lymphoma in clinical development, specifically focusing on clinical trials performed to date and strategies for improvement.展开更多

Under some regularity conditions, the proposed empirical log-likelihood ratio is proved to be asymptotically chi-squared, and then the confidence intervals for the fixed effects are constructed. The proposed estimation procedure is not affected by the random effects,and then the resulting estimator is more effective. Some simulations and a real data application are conducted for further illustrating the performances of the proposed method.展开更多

The study of the Holocene evolution of the YSCWM will greatly improve our understanding of the mechanisms of regional environmental change. Benthic foraminifera are sensitive to bottom water environmental changes and can serve as useful indicators in bottom water environmental reconstruction. In this study, benthic foraminifera were analyzed in core N02 from the northwestern margin of the southern Yellow Sea Mud to decipher the phase evolution of the YSCWM during the last 7 kyr. Benthic foraminifera census counts and Q-mode factor analysis indicate that the Holocene sedimentary environment can be divided into three stages: From6.9–5.0 ka, the fauna was dominated by Ammonia ketienziensis, indicating that the YSCWM was at its strongest during the last 7 kyr, while the Yellow Sea Coastal Current(YSCC) had a weak influence on the bottom water of the study area. From 5.0–2.9 ka,the relative abundance of Hanzawaia nipponica remarkably increased while the abundance of A. ketienziensis decreased significantly, reflecting that the strength of the YSCWM was relatively weak and the range of the YSCWM might have contracted. The influence of the YSCC on the bottom water might have slightly increased, although its influence was still weak during this time. A notable increase in low-temperature and low-salinity species, such as Protelphidium tuberculatum and Buccella spp. has occurred since 2.9 ka, indicating that the YSCC has had a strong influence on bottom water during this period,while the strength of the YSCWM has been at its weakest during the last 7 kyr. Generally, the influence of the YSCWM and the YSCC on the bottom water properties of the study area show an obvious seesaw pattern, with one's influence increasing while the other's influence decreases and vice versa. The fluctuations in the strength of YSCWM during the Holocene may be caused by the different effect allocations of regional climatic factors(i.e. El Ni?o Southern Oscillation, East Asian Winter Monsoon,summer insolation in the northern hemisphere, etc.) acting on the circulation system during different periods.展开更多

文摘Impact events have played a crucial role in the formation and evolution of the Moon,as evidenced by the numerous of impact craters on its surface,indicating a long history spanning over 4 billion years characterized by numerous such occurrences.As the moon evolved,it is likely that the early impact craters formed by the bombardment event have subsequently been overlaid by later impacts.However,limited samples and research methods have hindered the discovery of evidence of impacts on the lunar surface.Therefore,this article gives an overview of the study of shock metamorphism in lunar minerals,some new progress in the past 2 decades is reviewed,and the implications of these new discoveries for the composition of the Moon’s crust,history of impact,and the Moon’s evolution are discussed.In addition,some of the issues and limitations that have arisen in the study of lunar shock metamorphism are also summarized.Given the difficulties in the studying of lunar high-pressure minerals and shock metamorphic microstructure using traditional optical microscope,we suggest that the latest nanomineralogical research methods,such as focused ion beam,electron backscatter diffraction,atom probe tomography,Raman spectroscopy,and 3-dimensional electron diffraction,are rational and essential to address the challenges associated with the research on lunar shock metamorphism.
