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 gastrointestinal characteristics of children with glycogen storage disease (GSD) type Ⅰ.Methods:From June to December 2020, clinical data of children aged 0-18 years with GSD type Ⅰ diagnosed by genetic testing from all provinces and cities in China, including Beijing, Shanghai, Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan, Sichuan, Yunnan, Guizhou, Henan, Hebei, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Shaanxi, Anhui and Heilongjiang, were collected.A cross-sectional questionnaire survey was used for data analysis.Results:A total of 52 questionnaires were obtained, and 43 eligible patients aged 1-18 years were recruited, involving 30 males (69.8%) and 13 females (30.2%). Among them, 9 patients were GSD type Ⅰa and 34 patients were type Ⅰb.Seven patients (16.3%) had siblings who were also diagnosed as GSD type Ⅰb.The gastrointestinal manifestations included recurrent diarrhea in 26 patients (60.5%), perianal lesions (erythema, ulcer, abscess) in 25 patients (58.1%), abdominal pain/distension in 24 patients (55.8%), nausea/vomiting in 22 patients (51.1%), mucus/bloody stool in 14 patients (32.6%). Thirty-three patients (76.7%) had recurrent stomatitis and oral ulcer, and 38 patients (88.0%) had at least two gastrointestinal symptoms.White blood cell (WBC) count was <4.0×10 9/L in 24 patients (55.8%), and absolute neutrophils count was <1.5×10 9/L in 19 patients (44.2%), which was <0.5×10 9/L in 10 patients (23.3%). WBC count and absolute neutrophils count both decreased in children with GSD type Ⅰb.Platelets were >300×10 9/L in 30 patients (69.8%). Eighteen patients with GSD type Ⅰb underwent gastroscopy and colonoscopy, and 16 patients were diagnosed with GSD-related inflammatory bowel disease.Thirty-nine patients (90.7%) were fed with raw corn starch, 3 patients (6.9%) with maltodextrin and 19 patients (44.2%) with special enteral formula.Twenty patients with type Ⅰb GSD needed repeated antibiotic treatment due to neutropenia and neutrophil dysfunction.Fifteen patients were treated with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF). Among them, 11 patients were diagnosed as GSD-related bowel disease. Conclusions:Children with GSD type Ⅰ commonly have gastrointestinal symptoms, especially those with GSD type Ⅰb.The incidence of GSD-related inflammatory bowel disease is high in those children.G-CSF treatment cannot prevent the development of GSD-associated inflammatory bowel disease and its pathogenesis needs further research.Diet therapy is the first-line treatment of GSD type Ⅰ.Multidisciplinary management is helpful to reduce the complications and improve the quality of life in children with GSD type Ⅰ.

This study reported two women with extreme obesity who underwent metabolic surgery due to their mutations in leptin receptor (LEPR).Genomic DNA was extracted from the anticoagulant blood samples of the two patients and their parents.A panel of genes related to metabolic diseases or whole exon sequencing was screened and the results were confirmed by Sanger sequencing.This is the first time that these three mutations in LEPR were reported.Two patients complained insatiety and early-onset obesity since childhood at clinics.Patient 1 was a 39-year-old woman with height 150 cm,weight 130 kg,and BMI 57.8 kg/m2.Serum leptin level was 156.4 μg/L.A homozygous mutation of c.2317G＞T was found in exon 15 of LEPR gene in patient 1,which was descended from her father and mother respectively.Patient 2 was a 37-year-old woman with height 158 cm,weight 167 kg,and BMI 67 kg/m2.Serum leptin level was 193.4 μg/L.Genetic analysis showed compound heterozygous mutations of c.1482delT and c.1892C ＞ A.Her father showed heterozygous c.1482delT mutation,and her mother carried heterozygous c.1892C ＞ A mutation.Two patients all underwent metabolic surgery with body weight reduction of about 22 kg and 40 kg respectively after first six months.However,the follow-up studies showed that the body weight of patient 1 rebounded to pre-surgery level in two years and patient 2 did not further lose weight in the following six months.

OBJECTIVETo analyze the efficacy of percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG) in pediatric patients.

METHODFrom October 2011 to October 2014, children in the gastrointestinal ward of Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center received PEG or jejunal tube PEG(JET-PEG). The success rate, operation time were recorded. The changes of their weight, enteral nutrition calories and the incidence of pneumonia before and after the first 6 months of operation were compared. Follow-up was conducted until October 2014, the recent and long term complications, the length of indwelling time, the replacement or removal of the tube were recorded, the patients swallowing function or the primary disease's outcomes were observed.

RESULTOf the 13 cases, 10 were male, 3 were female, their average age was 2 years (range 1.8 months-9 years). We performed PEG for 12 of the patients who had congenital craniofacial problems that led to feeding difficulties or recurrent cough and pneumonia (6/12), or neurological disorders (6/12) with inability to swallow, and in one case JET-PEG was performed, this child suffered from chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction with vomiting and abdominal distension. The gastrostomy was successful in all the patients through one operation, the average operation time of PEG was (25 ± 3) minutes, JET-PEG was 60 minutes. One local skin infection was noted, no long-term complication occurred. In the first 6 months after operation, all the patients gained weight((5.5-30.5) kg postoperation vs. (3.0-30.0) kg preoperation), and 12 cases' enteral nutrition calories increased (from (209-502) to(272-543) kJ/(kg·d)), the incidence of pneumonia decreased in the children who had recurrent pneumonia before the operation (from (0-1.5) to (0-0.16) per month). Until October 2014, their average length of gastric tube indwelling time was 17.8 months (range 4-36 months). In 4 cases PEG tube was removed when they could eat completely independently, the other 9 needed enteral vein nutrition via PEG tube or jejunal tube, in 3 of them balloon type gastric fistula tube was applied. Two of the 13 cases who had cleft palate received stomatological operations when their weight grew to meet the standard.

CONCLUSIONPEG and JET-PEG are safe and effective method for enteric nutrition feeding in pediatrics, the technique causes minimal trauma and has rapid postoperative recovery, few complications, good aesthetic appearances and simple nursing, it can significantly improve their nutritional status and quality of life.

A series of novel N-acyl-thiochromenothiazol-2-amine derivatives were designed and synthesized, furthermore, their inhibition effect on acetylcholinesterase was investigated. N-Acyl-thiochromenothiazol-2-amines were prepared from thiophenol by Hantzsch reaction, acylation reaction and substitution reaction. Moreover, their bioactivities as AChE inhibitors in vitro were measured with Ellman spectrophotometry. The results showed that most of them had a certain inhibition activity on AChE, and the compound 10a was the best in them. The IC50 of 10a to AChE is 7.92 μmol x L(-1), and the value is better than that of rivastigmine. N-Acyl-thiochromenothiazol-2-amine derivatives showed a certain bioactivity in vitro, which were worth further investigation.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the efficacy of endoscopic balloon dilatation, stenting and surgery in treating corrosive esophageal stricture of children.

METHODWe retrospectively analyzed the management of 31 children who were treated with endoscopic balloon dilatation, stenting or gastric tube esophagoplasty because of corrosive esophageal stricture between August 2005 and December 2012. Dysphagia was graded into 4 grades according to Stooler grading methods. The efficacy was divided into 3 grades which were very effective, effective and ineffective according to the improvement of dysphagia.

RESULTAmong 31 children with corrosive esophageal stricture, in 22 children the problem was caused by alkali, in 9 by acid; 23 children had long-segment stricture and 8 had short-segment stricture. The number (rates) of cases in whom the endoscopic balloon dilatation was very effective, effective, and ineffective were 12 (38.7%) , 7 (22.6%) , 12 (38.7%) , respectively. The number of cases in whom stenting was effective or ineffective was 1 and 3, respectively. The gastric tube esophagoplasty was very effective and effective in 8 and 2 cases, respectively. Total rates of very effective, effective, and ineffective of 3 treatments were 64.5%, 29%, 6.5% respectively. The efficacy of endoscopic balloon dilatation was better in short-segment stricture and bigger caliber stricture, the efficacy was not so good for other types of strictures. The efficacy of balloon dilatation was not related with the nature of substances (either alkaline or acidic). Compared with very effective group, the ineffective group with longer course of disease before dilatation (t = -2.091, P = 0.048) , smaller stricture calibre (t = 2.855, P = 0.009) , longer stricture segment (t = -3.405, P = 0.003) and longer dilatation time (t = -2.103, P = 0.047) , had statistical significance.

CONCLUSIONEndoscopic balloon dilatation was the preferred treatment for corrosive esophageal stricture of children. The efficacy was better in shorter course of disease, short-segment stricture and bigger caliber stricture, for other situations the efficacy was not so good. The efficacy of balloon dilatation was not related with the nature of substances.Stent or surgery can be considered if efficacy of balloon dilatation was not so good.Gastric tube esophagoplasty is an effective treatment for complicated corrosive esophageal stricture.

To discuss clinical diagnosis and treatment of cow’s milk protein allergy and cow’s milk protein-induced FPIES (food protein induced enterocolitis syndrome). Methods We retrospectively analyzed clinical data of one infant with milk protein allergy-induced FPIES. Results A 67 days old female on mixed breast and formula feeding developed recurrent diarrhea, abdominal distension, vomiting, mucousy and bloody stools, feeding dififculty, anemia, and failure to thrive since 2 weeks after birth. Laboratory studies showed anemia, increased CRP level and elevation of peripheral white blood count and eosinophil proportion. Milk-speciifc IgE was negative. She was previously hospitalized 4 times, all with admitting diagnosis of“necrotizing enterocolitis”. We treated her with milk protein elimination for 4 weeks and all symptoms were resolved. Milk protein re-challenge test was positive, consistent with clinical features of cow’s milk protein allergy-induced infant FPIES. Conclusions Cow’s milk protein allergy and cow’s milk protein-induced FPIES can present with non-speciifc and variable clinical symptoms and signs, and should be considered in the differential diagnosis.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the safety and efficacy between endoscopic papillary balloon dilatation (EPBD) and endoscopic sphincteropapillotomy ( EST) for common bile duct stones using meta-analysis method.

METHODSRandomizd controlled trials comparing EPBD with EST for common bile duct stones and published from January 1990 to July 2012 were recruited. This meta-analysis was conducted to estimate short-term and long-term complications. Fixed random effect model or random effect model was established to analyze the data.

RESULTSTwelve randomizd controlled trials were included in this analysis. These studies included 1865 patients, 925 of them were treated with EPBD and 940 were treated with EST. The analysis of basic characteristics of these included studies showed that: compared to EST, patients in the EPBD group were younger (OR = -1.16, 95% CI: -1.49 to -0.84, P = 0.00), while in two groups, there were no significant difference (P > 0.05) in gender proportion, average size of stones, number of gallstones, previous cholecystectomy, the number of merged duodenal diverticulum, common bile duct diameter, the total follow-up time. Also, compared to EST, the overall stone clearance in the EPBD group was lower (OR = 0.64, 95% CI: 0.42 to 0.96, P = 0.03), pancreatitis incidence was higher (OR = 2.67, 95% CI: 1.61 to 4.43, P = 0.00), incidence of bleeding (OR = 0.12, 95% CI: 0.04 to 0.34, P = 0.00), acute cholecystitis (OR= 0.39, 95% CI: 0.18 to 0.84, P = 0.02), total long-term complication rate (OR = 0.53, 95% CI: 0.36 to 0.77, P = 0.01), stone recurrence rate more than a year were lower (OR= 0.48, 95% CI: 0.26 to 0.90, P = 0.02). While in two groups, there were no significant difference (P > 0.05) in the stone removal on 1 '' attempt, the total near-term complications and acute cholangitis.

CONCLUSIONSOn the basis of lower rates of bleeding, EPBD seems to be preferred strategy over EST for endoscopic remove of common bile duct stones in patients who have coagulopathy. Although stone recurrence rate more than a year of EPBD is lower, but the overall stone clearance rate is lower and the risk of pancreatitis is higher than that of EST.
