Vascular trauma in wartime is often accompanied by severe complications such as fractures,visceral injuries,and hemorrhagic shock,and it is a major cause of disability and death on the battlefield.In response to the high incidence and complexity of combat-related vascular trauma,"Chinese expert consensus on the management of vascular combat injuries"has been jointly formulated by the Vascular Surgery Group of the Chinese People's Liberation Army(PLA),the Vascular Medicine Professional Committee of China Research Hospital Association,and the Vascular Devices Branch of China Association for Medical Devices Industry.Leading experts in vascular surgery and medical device development for vascular trauma treatment from the PLA were invited to participate,and they integrated the latest research findings and relevant literature in the field of combat vascular trauma management.After extensive consultation with experts from military medical and research institutions,this consensus focuses on fundamental treatment concepts and principles of vascular trauma care,frontline care,early vascular damage control surgery,and bleeding management protocols for different anatomical regions.The consensus comprises 8 sections with 42 recommendation statements,aiming to establish a comprehensive,highly targeted,and operationally feasible treatment protocol covering the entire continuum of combat vascular trauma care.It provides clear and practical references for managing vascular injuries at different levels and anatomical locations on the battlefield.
6.Expert consensus on aeromedical identification of vasogenic white matter hyperintensities in aircrews
Medical Journal of Chinese People's Liberation Army 2025;50(5):505-512
White matter hyperintensities(WMH)are abnormal high-signal manifestations in white matter areas on magnetic resonance T2-weighted or fluid-attenuated inversion recovery(FLAIR)sequences,with vasogenic WMH being the most common.Its pathological mechanism is related to cerebrovascular lesions and can lead to multi-dimensional brain functional impairments in cognition,movement,and emotions.Due to their unique working conditions,aircrews are more prone to vasogenic WMH than the general population.Moreover,with the widespread use of magnetic resonance imaging in cranial disease screening for aircrews,the detection rate of vasogenic WMH in aircrews has significantly increased.However,to date,no national or academic organization has issued standardized aviation medical assessment criteria for vasogenic WMH in aircrews.Therefore,led by Xijing Hospital of Air Force Medical University and the Chinese PLA General Hospital,a multi-disciplinary expert panel involved in aviation medicine,neurology,radiology,psychology,and related fields was assembled to formulate this consensus.The document integrates evidence from a systematic review of PubMed,CNKI,Wanfang Data,and VIP databases,incorporates existing WMH guidelines,and synthesizes clinical expertise from Chinese specialists.The consensus outlines three key domains:target population,neuroimaging protocols for vasogenic WMH screening,and clinical assessment and aeromedical identification for aircrews with vasogenic WMH.The aim is to provide evidence-based support and expert recommendations for standardizing and improving the accuracy of aviation medical evaluations of vasogenic WMH in aircrews.

Objective To explore the role and mechanism of RNA m6A methyltransferase Wilms'tumor 1-associated protein(WTAP)in epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT)of glioblastoma cells and its association with transcription factor JUNB.Methods(1)Based on the Cancer Genome Atlas(TCGA)and Genotype-Tissue Expression(GTEx)databases,the expression levels of transforming growth factor β(TGF-β),WTAP,and JUNB in glioblastoma multiforme(GBM)and normal brain tissues were analyzed,as well as their diagnostic and prognostic values for GBM.The correlation of TGF-β,WTAP,and JUNB with gliomas of different WHO grades was analyzed using the Chinese Glioma Genome Atlas(CGGA)database.Spearman correlation analysis was performed to assess the correlation between TGF-β and m6A methyltransferases.(2)An EMT model was established in human astrocytoma U87-MG cells through TGF-β1 induction.qRT-PCR and Western blotting were employed to detect the expression levels of WTAP,JUNB,matrix metalloproteinase 2(MMP2),and N-cadherin.The migration capacity of U87-MG cells was evaluated by wound-healing and Transwell assays.An m6A RNA methylation quantification kit(colorimetric)was used to detect RNA m6A methylation modification levels.A stable cell line with low expression of WTAP was constructed to investigate the effects of WTAP knockdown on the migration ability of U87-MG cells,as well as the expression of JUNB.(3)A protein-protein interaction network was constructed using STRING database and GeneMANIA database,followed by gene ontology(GO)and KEGG pathway enrichment analyses to explore the biological processes,molecular functions,cellular components,and signaling pathways potentially involved in TGF-β/WTAP/JUNB.Gene set enrichment analysis(GSEA)was performed on JUNB-related genes to investigate their potential downstream signaling pathways.Results(1)The expression levels of TGF-β,WTAP,and JUNB were significantly higher in GBM(P<0.001),positively correlated with WHO grades of glioma(P<0.001).Glioma patients with high expression of all three genes had shorter overall and disease-free survival(P<0.001).Spearman analysis showed that the expression of TGF-β in GBM was positively correlated with WTAP(r=0.175,P=0.023),but no significant correlation with other m6A methyltransferases(P>0.05).(2)After TGF-β1 treatment,the level of m6A methylation modification of total RNA in U87-MG cells significantly increased(P<0.001).Wound-healing assay and Transwell assay results showed that the migration ability of U87-MG cells was significantly increased after TGF-β1 treatment(P<0.01),while WTAP knockdown significantly reduced the migration ability of U87-MG cells(P<0.01).qRT-PCR and Western blotting results showed that the mRNA and protein expression levels of WTAP,N-Cadherin,MMP2,and JUNB in U87-MG cells were significantly increased after 48 h of TGF-β1 induction(P<0.001),while WTAP knockdown significantly reduced the mRNA and protein expression of JUNB(P<0.001).(3)The TGF-β/WTAP/JUNB-related protein-protein interaction network was constructed,which was primary involved in mRNA modification and EMT.GSEA results showed that JUNB-related signaling pathways were closely associated with glioma malignant progression.Conclusions TGF-β,WTAP,and JUNB are all associated with GBM malignant progression and poor patient prognosis.TGF-β may enhance total RNA m6A modification by promoting the expression of m6A methyltransferase WTAP,and WTAP subsquentaly upregulates transcription factor JUNB,thereby promoting EMT and malignant progression of GBM.
