【Objective】 To explore the psychological experience of blood donors with blood donation-related vasovagal reaction (DRVR), so as to provide basis for improving the quality of blood donation services. 【Methods】 The real experience of 9 DRVR blood donors was analyzed using the phenomenological research method in qualitative research. 【Results】 The occurrence of DRVR caused distinct psychological conflict among blood donor. Blood donors lacked knowledge about blood donation and expected professional evaluation and continuous support. The occurrence of DRVR was an important reason for blood donor lapsing. 【Conclusion】 By resolving the distinct psychological conflicts of DRVR blood donors, establishing DRVR early warning evaluation and feedback system, as well as strengthening the construction of support system, blood collection and supply institutions can create a good humanistic and social environment for sustainable development of voluntary blood donation.

Objective To establish a reliable pretreatment method for the detection of mequindox and its metabolite in pork luncheon meat by ultra-performance liquid chromatography/triple qudrupole tandem mass spectrometry. Methods Samples were extracted with ethyl acetate, and the results of purification and enrichment by PAX and PEP solid-phase extraction columns were analyzed. Acetonitrile/methanol (3:11) - 0.1% formic acid water was used as the mobile phase, and Shimadzu Inertsil ODS-3-column (3µm, 2.1 × 100mm) chromatographic columns were used for qualitative and quantitative analysis using the multi-reaction detection positive ion mode. Results The results showed that PEP cartridge had good recovery rate. The detection limit of mequindox was 0.10µg/kg, and limit of quantitation was 0.30µg/kg. The average recoveries for spiked levels of 0.33, 0.83, and 1.65µg/kg were 127%, 72.0%, and 60.1%, respectively. The detection limit of 2-quinoxalinecarboxylic acid was 0.10µg/kg, and limit of quantitation was 0.40µg/kg. The average recoveries for spiked levels of 0.42, 1.05, and 2.1µg/kg were 125%, 99.0%, and 60.9%, respectively. Conclusion This method is suitable for the determination of mequindox and its metabolite 2-quinoxalinecarboxylic acid in luncheon meat.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the RHD genotype of a blood donor with Del phenotype in Yunnan. METHODS: Rh serological phenotype was identified. RHD gene was detected by PCR-SSP typing, and its 10 exons were sequenced. Exon 9 was amplified for sequencing and analysis. RHD zygosity was detected. RESULTS: The Rh phenotype of this specimen was CcD^elee. Genomic DNA exhibited a 1 003 bp deletion spanning from intron 8, across exon 9 into intron 9. The deletion breakpoints occurred between two 7-bp short tandem repeat sequences. There was no variation in the sequences of the remaining exons. The Rh hybridization box test showed that there was one RHD negative allele. CONCLUSION This specimen is Del type caused by deletion of RHD exon 9.

Integrin is a family of transmembrane heterodimer receptor formed by α and β two subunits, which transduces external signals into cells through reaction with extracellular matrix and is crucial to cell survival, migration, and differentiation. With the deep studies on multipotential differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), researchers found that the differentiation of MSCs depends on integrin related signaling pathways, including MAPK, Wnt and PI3K signaling pathways and so on. However, there are many factors affecting the expression and activation of integrin, such as nano morphology microenvironment, ascorbic acid, bone morphogenetic protein-2, fibronectin, cadherin, fluid shear stress and so on. In this review, we mainly discuss the integrin expression, the promoting effects of integrin on the differentiation of MSCs and their underlying mechanisms.

OBJECTIVES: To explore the possible mechanism of Yunaconitine poisoning by studying the changes of urine metabolic profile in rats chronically poisoned by Yunaconitine via non-targeted metabolomics. METHODS: A rat model of Yunaconitine poisoning was established, and a metabolomics method based on UPLC-QTOF-MS technology was used to obtain the urine metabolic profile. Principal component analysis (PCA), orthogonal projections to latent structures-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA), variable importance in projection (VIP) value greater than 1, fold change (FC) value greater than 3 or less than 0.33 and P value less than 0.05 were used to screen potential biomarkers related to the toxicity of Yunaconitine. The metabolic pathway analysis was performed through the MetaboAnalyst website and pathological changes of related tissues were observed. RESULTS: Sixteen potential biomarkers including L-isoleucine were screened, which mainly involved six metabolic pathways including the biosynthesis and degradation of valine, leucine and isoleucine, pentose and glucuronate interconversions, and propanoate metabolism, alanine, aspartate and glutamate metabolism, tyrosine metabolism. Pathological studies showed that rat toxic change in nervous system, liver and cardiac caused by Yunaconitine. CONCLUSIONS Yunaconitine may cause neurotoxicity, hepatotoxicity and cardiotoxicity by affecting amino acid and glucose metabolism.

【Objective】 To investigate the changes in cellular immunity (peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets) and humoral immunity (serum immunoglobulin and ferritin) status among children with thalassemia who received repeated transfusions in Yunnan. 【Methods】 Forty-six children with thalassemia who underwent repeated blood transfusions from January 2020 to October 2022 were selected as the observation group. Forty children with thalassemia who did not receive blood transfusion were included in control group 1, and 46 healthy children underwent physical examination were included in control group 2. The differences in lymphocyte subsets, serum immunoglobulin levels and ferritin concentrations were compared among the three groups. 【Results】 For lymphocyte subsets: CD3⁺, CD4⁺ and CD4⁺/CD8⁺ in the observation group was lower than the control group 1 and 2: 57.60±8.36 vs 64.57±7.56 vs 66.58±5.65, 33.16±5.67 vs 38.62±8.36 vs 38.62±6.41 and 1.49±0.09 vs 2.32±0.15 vs 2.13±0.16, respectively; CD16⁺ CD56⁺ in the observation group was lower than the control group 2: 11.21±5.06 vs 16.70±7.92; CD8⁺ in the observation group was higher than control group 1 and control group 2: 26.63± 1.75 vs 20.60±1.43 vs 18.92±0.84; CD19⁺ in the observation group was higher than the control group 2: 24.06±6.42 vs 19.67 ±8.42, P<0.05, but no significant difference was noticed between the two control groups(P>0.05). For serum immunoglobulin and ferritin: IgG and ferritin in the observation group were higher than control group 1 and control group 2: 10.59±3.88 vs 7.02±3.88 vs 5.58±1.98 and 2 037.37±1 377.59 vs 72.63±56.71 vs 59.48±33.88. IgA in the observation group was higher than the control group 2: 1.06±0.92 vs 0.39±0.32(P<0.05), but no significant difference was noticed between the two control groups (P>0.05). The difference of IgM and IgE between the three groups was not significant (P > 0. 05). 【Conclusion】 The proportion of lymphocyte subsets in thalassemia children with repeated blood transfusion was imbalanced,and the level of immunoglobulin in humoral immunity was abnormal.

Ligaments are dense fibrous connective tissue that maintains joint stability through bone-to-bone connections. Ligament tears that due to sports injury or tissue aging usually require surgical intervention, and transplanting autologous, allogeneic, or artificial ligaments for reconstruction is the gold standard for treating such diseases in spite of many drawbacks. With the development of materialogy and manufacturing technology, engineered ligament tissue based on bioscaffold is expected to become a new substitute, which can lead to tissue regeneration by simulating the structure, composition, and biomechanical properties of natural tissue.

Objective: Pelvic high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has now become a standard method for evaluating the efficacy of neoadjuvant treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC). However, this traditional morphological qualitative assessment method based on T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) is not effective in predicting pathological complete remission (pCR). The purpose of this study is to investigate whether combining the magnetic resonance tumor regression grade (mrTRG) with apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) can improve diagnostic value for pCR after preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) of LARC. Methods: This was a diagnostic study. Clinicopathological data of 134 LARC patients who received nCRT and radical surgery in the First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from January 2017 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. All the patients underwent MRI which included T2WI and DWI sequences before and 8 weeks after nCRT. Two radiologists independently drew ROIs on T2WI and DWI to estimate mrTRG stage and calculate the mean ADC value. Receiver operating characteristics (ROC) method was applied to evaluate the predict value of mrTRG combined with mean ADC value for pCR. Results: Of 134 LARC patients, 85 were male and 49 were female with median age of 58 (28-82) years. After nCRT, MRI suggested 21 patients (15.7%) had clinical complete remission (cCR), e.g. mrTRG stage 1-2. Postoperative pathology revealed 31 (23.1%) patients had pCR. The evaluations of mrTRG and ADC value by the two readers were highly consistent, and the intra-group correlation coefficients were 0.83 (95% CI: 0.703-0.881) and 0.96 (95% CI: 0.989-0.996), respectively. There was a negative correlation between mrTRG and pCR (r(s)=-0.505, P<0.01), and a positive correlation between mean ADC value and pCR (r(s)=0.693, P<0.01). The ROC curve showed that mrTRG alone had a medium predictive value for pCR, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.832 (95% CI: 0.743-0.921); the mean ADC value had a higher predictive value for pCR, with AUC of 0.906 (95% CI: 0.869-0.962). The predictive value of the combined model of mrTRG and ADC value for pCR was significantly better than that of mrTRG alone (P=0.015), and the AUC was 0.908 (95% CI: 0.849-0.968). Conclusion: Both mrTRG and mean ADC value can be non-invasive methods to predict the efficacy of nCRT for LARC. Combining the mean ADC value with mrTRG can result in better pCR prediction.

Objective:To investigate the effect of mangiferin on the mRNA expression of phosphoribosylpyrohoosphate synthetase (PRPS), phosphate ribose pyrophosphate amide transferase (PRPPAT) in liver and hypoxanthine-guanine phosphate transfer enzyme (HGPRT) in brain of hyperuricemic mice induced by potassium oxonate. Method:Hyperuricemic mice were induced through intraperitoneal injection with uricase inhibitor potassium oxonate. The serum uric acid level was determined by the phosphotungstic acid method. The mRNA expression levels of PRPS and PRPPAT in liver as well as HGPRT in brain of hyperuricemic mice were measured by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Result:An intraperitoneal injection with potassium oxonate caused a marked increase in serum uric acid level, compared with normal control group (P<0.05). Intragastric administration with mangiferin at the doses of 1.5, 3.0, 6.0 mg·kg^-1 was able to significantly reduce serum uric acid levels, compared with hyperuricemic control group (P<0.05,P<0.01); Moreover, the increase in the mRNA expression levels of PRPS and PRPPAT in liver, as well as the decrease in the mRNA expression of HGPRT in brain were observed in hyperuricemic control group, but with no statistically difference. Mangiferin has no impact on the mRNA expressions of PRPS, PRPPAT and HGPRT, compared with hyperuricemic control group. Conclusion:The hyporuricemic effect of mangiferin might not be related with PRPS, PRPPAT and HGPRT in therapeutic dose.
