Objective:To analyze the categories, characteristics, and clinical symptoms of adverse reactions associated with thalidomide treatment for oral mucosal diseases, providing a reference for the safe use of this medication in patients.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted to retrospectively analyze the adverse reactions to thalidomide treatment in 44 patients with oral mucosal diseases who received treatment at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Air Force Medical University from January 2019 to December 2023. The correlation between the age and sex of patients experiencing adverse reactions, the timing of these reactions in relation to sex, the organs and their appendages affected by the adverse reactions, and the outcomes of these reactions were statistically analyzed.Results:The incidence of adverse reactions associated with thalidomide treatment at the hospital was 0.21% (44/21 329), with a higher prevalence among female patients. Multiple organs were affected in 50.00% (22/44) of the cases, though the reactions were relatively concentrated, primarily involving the skin and its appendages, the central and peripheral nervous systems, and the gastrointestinal system. The main manifestations included rash and dizziness.Conclusion:In the treatment of oral mucosal diseases with thalidomide, it is essential to monitor adverse drug reactions, particularly those affecting the nervous system. Special attention should be given to the potential teratogenicity of thalidomide in individuals of childbearing age. In addition, it is vital to consistently investigate strategies to ensure the safety of patients using medication at home.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To investigate the metabolomic characteristics of amniotic fluid in pregnant women with fetal growth restriction (FGR) by targeted metabolomics, identify differential metabolites with biomarker potential, analyze metabolic pathways, and provide metabolic clues for the study of FGR pathogenesis.Methods:From June 2020 to November 2023, amniotic fluid samples were prospectively collected from 19 FGR fetuses (FGR group) and 30 normal-weight fetuses (control group) at the Affiliated Guangdong Second Provincial General Hospital of Jinan University. Targeted metabolomic analysis of amniotic fluid samples (taken at 16-32 gestational weeks) was performed using liquid chromatography- tandem mass spectrometry. Cluster analysis and multivariate statistical analysis were used to analyze the differences in metabolic profiles between the FGR and control groups. Metabolic pathway enrichment analysis was conducted using metabolomics databases, and potential biomarkers were identified using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis.Results:A total of 16 differential metabolites were identified between the FGR and control groups, including gallic acid, 6-hydroxy-nicotinic-acid, 2-methyl-valeric-acid, undecanoic acid, trimethylamine, γ-linolenic acid, decanoylcarnitine, α-linolenic acid, 4-ethyl-caprylic-acid, oleic acid, O-hexyl carnitine, L-theanine,turanose, 4-hydrocinnamic acid, L-aspartic acid, and 3-methyl-valeric-acid. These metabolites were involved in metabolic pathways such as unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis, niacin and nicotinamide metabolism, carbon metabolism, and fatty acid biosynthesis. ROC curve analysis of the 16 differential metabolites revealed that nine had an area under the ROC curve (AUC)>0.7, including oleic acid (AUC= 0.851, 95% CI: 0.737-0.965), α-linolenic acid (AUC=0.798, 95% CI: 0.664-0.933), 4-hydrocinnamic acid (AUC=0.756, 95% CI: 0.619-0.895), L-aspartic acid (AUC=0.747, 95% CI: 0.595-0.900), 4-ethyl-caprylic- acid (AUC=0.746, 95% CI: 0.610-0.881), O-hexyl carnitine (AUC=0.746, 95% CI: 0.610-0.881), decanoylcarnitine (AUC=0.735, 95% CI: 0.589-0.881), turanose (AUC=0.735, 95% CI: 0.589-0.882), and 2-methyl-valeric-acid (AUC=0.725, 95% CI: 0.577-0.872), indicating their potential as biomarkers. Conclusions:FGR fetuses exhibit significant differences in metabolites, involving fatty acids and amino acids related to hypoxic stress and inflammatory responses. Oleic acid and other metabolites can serve as potential biomarkers related to the growth and development of FGR fetuses.

Objective: To analyze the impact of parental sports concept and behavior on physical activity in preschool children, so as to provide a foundation for future guidance on fostering childrens physical activity within the family context. Methods: From November to December 2020, a clustered convenience sampling method was employed to conduct surveys, and a total of 283 children were selectal from one kindergarten each in Beijing, Shenyang, and Xian. Participating children wore ActiGraph GT9X accelerometers continuously for one week to collect data on different intensity levels of physical activity. Physical Activity afterschool Questionnaire for Preschooler (P-PAQ) was utilized to assess parental sports concept and behavior. The gender differences in physical activity level and physical activity compliance rate were analyzed by using ttest, Mann-Whitney U test, and Chisquare test; and the relationship between parental exercise concepts and behaviors and physical activity of preschool children was analyzed using Spearman rank correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis. Results: Parental sports concept was significantly positively correlated with average daily moderatetovigorous physical activity (MVPA) and total physical activity (TPA) in children (r=0.12-0.16, P<0.05). Parental sports behavior was significantly positively correlated with childrens average daily TPA (r=0.25, P<0.05). Multiple linear regression revealed that parental sports concept was positively correlated with average daily MVPA and TPA in both boys and girls (B=0.65-0.83), while parental sports behavior only was positively correlated with boys average daily MVPA and TPA (B=0.24-0.25)(P<0.05). Conclusions Parental sports concept and behavior can impact physical activity levels in preschool children, exhibiting gender differences. Future guidance on physical activity in family upbringing should consider both parental sports concept and behavior, and pay attention to the influence of childrens gender.

Objective:To study the complete genome characterization of Human Astrovirus (HAstV) in Shandong Province.Methods:Stool samples from acute flaccid paralysis (AFP) surveillance in Shandong Province from 2020 to 2022 were collected, and HAstV nucleic acid was examined by real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR). Next-generation sequencing (NGS) was conducted for the positive samples to obtain complete genome sequences and identify the genotype.

The VA2 sequence of this study had 96.0% to 96.3% nt similarities with those from other regions. Phylogenetic analysis based on ORF2 region showed that the local HAstV-1 sequences were most closely related to Japanese strains, and had distinct topology with phylogenies based on ORF1a and ORF1b regions. Conclusion:The complete genome sequences of 11 HAstV strains are obtained, and the VA2 complete genome is found.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical features and causative genes of short stature children with unknown etiology， providing evidence for precise clinical diagnosis and treatment. MethodsThe study recruited children with suspected but undiagnosed short stature from the pediatric endocrinology department in our hospital between January 2018 and August 2022. A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical manifestations， laboratory test and whole exome sequencing （WES） results. Causative genes were classified and analyzed according to different pathogenic mechanisms. ResultsA total of 48 children （30 boys and 18 girls） were enrolled， aged 7.73 ± 3.97 years， with a height standard deviation score （ HtSDS） of -3.63 ± 1.67. Of the patients， 33 （68.8%） suffered from facial anomalies， 31 （64.6%） from skeletal abnormalities， 26 ［54.2%， 61.5% of whom born small for gestational age （SGA）］ from perinatal abnormalities， 24 ［50.0%， 87.5% of whom with growth hormone （GH） peak concentration below normal］ from endocrine disorders and 21（43.8%） had a family history of short stature. Laboratory tests showed that GH peak concentration following stimulation test was （9.72 ± 7.25） ng/mL， IGF-1 standard deviation score was -0.82 ± 1.42， the difference between bone age and chronological age was -0.93 ± 1.39 years. Of the 25 cases with mutant genes found by WES， 14 （56.0%） had pathogenic mutation， 6 （24.0%） likely pathogenic mutation， and 5 （20.0%） mutation of uncertain significance. Pathogenic and likely pathogenic variants were identified in 14 genes， including 10 affecting intracellular signaling pathways （PTPN11， RAF1， RIT1， ARID1B， ANKRD11， CSNK2A1， SRCAP， CUL7， SMAD4 and FAM111A） and 4 affecting extracellular matrix （ECM） components or functions （ACAN， FBN1， COL10A1 and COMP）. ConclusionsA rare monogenic disease should be considered as the possible etiology for children with severe short stature accompanied by facial anomalies， disproportionate body types， skeletal abnormalities， SGA， GH peak concentration below normal and a family history of short stature. WES played an important role in identifying the monogenic causes of short stature. This study indicated that affecting growth plate cartilage formation through intracellular signaling pathways and ECM components or functions was the main mechanism of causative genes leading to severe short stature in children. Further research may help discover and study new pathogenic variants and gene functions.

The questionnaire Quality Monitoring Indicators for Blood Collection and Supply Process with clear definition of indicators and calculation formulas was distributed to 17 blood banks in Shandong province. Quality monitoring indicators of each blood bank from January to December 2022 were collected, and 31 indicators in terms of blood testing were analyzed using SPSS25.0 software. 【Results】 The proportion of unqualified serological tests in 17 blood bank laboratories was 55.84% for ALT, 13.63% for HBsAg, 5.08% for anti HCV, 5.62% for anti HIV, 18.18% for anti TP, and 1.65% for other factors (mainly sample quality). The detection unqualified rate and median were (1.23±0.57)% and 1.11%, respectively. The ALT unqualified rate and median were (0.74±0.53)% and 0.60%, respectively. The detection unqualified rate was positively correlated with ALT unqualified rate (r=0.974, P<0.05). The unqualified rate of HBsAg, anti HCV, anti HIV and anti TP was (0.15±0.09)%, (0.05±0.04)%, (0.06±0.03)% and (0.20±0.05)% respectively. The average unqualified rate, average hemolysis rate, average insufficient volume rate and the abnormal hematocrit rate of samples in 17 blood bank laboratories was 0.21‰, 0.08‰, 0.01‰ and 0.02‰ respectively. There were differences in the retest concordance rates of four HBsAg, anti HCV and anti HIV reagents, and three anti TP reagents among 17 blood bank laboratories (P<0.05). The usage rate of ELISA reagents was (114.56±3.30)%, the outage rate of ELISA was (10.23±7.05) ‰, and the out of range rate of ELISA was (0.90±1.17) ‰. There was no correlation between the out of range rate, outrage rate and usage rate (all P>0.05), while the outrage rate was positively correlated with the usage rate (r=0.592, P<0.05). A total of 443 HBV DNA positive samples were detected in all blood banks, with an unqualified rate of 3.78/10 000; 15 HCV RNA positive samples were detected, with an unqualified rate of 0.13/10 000; 5 HIV RNA positive samples were detected, with an unqualified rate of 0.04/10 000. The unqualified rate of NAT was (0.72±0.04)‰, the single NAT reaction rate [(0.39±0.02)‰] was positively correlated with the single HBV DNA reaction rate [ (0.36±0.02) ‰] (r=0.886, P<0.05). There was a difference in the discriminated reactive rate by individual NAT among three blood bank laboratories (C, F, H) (P<0.05). The median resolution rate of 17 blood station laboratories by minipool test was 36.36%, the median rate of invalid batch of NAT was 0.67%, and the median rate of invalid result of NAT was 0.07‰. The consistency rate of ELISA dual reagent detection results was (99.63±0.24)%, and the median length of equipment failure was 14 days. The error rate of blood type testing in blood collection department was 0.14‰. 【Conclusion】 The quality monitoring indicator system for blood testing process in Shandong can monitor potential risks before, during and after the experiment, and has good applicability, feasibility, and effectiveness, and can facilitate the continuous improvement of laboratory quality control level. The application of blood testing quality monitoring indicators will promote the homogenization and standardization of blood quality management in Shandong, and lay the foundation for future comprehensive evaluations of blood banks.
