OBJECTIVETo investigate the association between small ubiquitin-related modifier-1 (SUMO-1) gene rs6709162, rs7599810, rs7580433 polymorphism and non-syndromic oral clefting (NSOC).

METHODSOur study consisted of 208 Ningxia NSOC patients, their parents (189 fathers and 176 mothers), 172 nuclear families (patients and their parents), and 284 normal controls. DNA was extracted and polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphisms (PCR-RFLP) was used to identify rs6709162, rs7599810, rs7580433 genotypes of the samples. The data was analyzed by case-control analysis, family based associated test (FBAT), and transmission disequilibrium test (TDT).

RESULTSCase-control study found that TT genotype's frequency was significantly different in cleft lip and cleft palate group compared with the control group at rs7599810 of SUMO-1 (P=0.01, P=0.01). TDT test showed that rs7599810's T allele had over-transmitted (P=0.00) in cleft lip and palate group. FBAT analysis revealed that distribution of rs7599810's TT genotype and T allele was significantly different (P=0.00, P=0.00). TDT test showed that rs6709162's C allele in cleft palate and cleft lip and palate patients had over-transmitted (P=0.00, P=0.01). rs7580433's G allele in cleft lip group had over-transmitted (P=0.05).

CONCLUSIONSUMO-1 gene polymorphism is associated with NSOC.

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.
