Objective To investigate the therapeutic efficacy of HLA-genotype matched platelet transfusion using a platelet donor database for severe platelet transfusion refractoriness (PTR) caused by HLA antigen-antibody incompatibility. Methods Using real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) to identify he patient's HLA class I genotype, followed by searching the platelet donor database for matching donors, and selecting highly compatible donors for transfusion. Platelets with higher compatibility levels were prioritized for transfusion recommendations. Results Among the 19 patients studied, 7 patients identified donors with B2U or higher compatibility, 6 patients identified donors with BX or higher compatibility, and 6 patients did not find a suitable donor. The transfusion efficacy was evaluated by calculating the corrected count increment (CCI) 24 hours post-transfusion, and all transfusions were effective. Conclusion The optimal strategy to prevent and treat patients with severe platelet transfusion refractoriness is to ensure patients receive platelet transfusions that are matched to their HLA genes, and this approach significantly enhances transfusion efficacy.

Ferroptosis is a form of cell death elicited by an imbalance in intracellular iron concentrations, leading to enhanced lipid peroxidation. In neurological disorders, both oxidative stress and mitochondrial damage can contribute to ferroptosis, resulting in nerve cell dysfunction and death. The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) refers to a cellular pathway in which specific proteins are tagged with ubiquitin for recognition and degradation by the proteasome. In neurological conditions, the UPS plays a significant role in regulating ferroptosis. In this review, we outline how the UPS regulates iron metabolism, ferroptosis, and their interplay in neurological diseases. In addition, we discuss the future application of small-molecule inhibitors and identify potential drug targets. Further investigation into the mechanisms of UPS-mediated ferroptosis will provide novel insights and strategies for therapeutic interventions and clinical applications in neurological diseases.

Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction syndrome caused by a dysregulated host response to infection. Septic acute kidney injury (SAKI) is one of the most common complications of sepsis, and the occurrence of acute kidney injury (AKI) indicates that the patient's condition is critical with a poor prognosis. The traditional view holds that the main mechanism of SAKI is the reduction of renal blood flow, inadequate renal perfusion, inflammatory response, and microcirculatory dysfunction caused by sepsis, which subsequently leads to ischemia and necrosis of renal tubular cells. Recent research findings indicate that processes such as autophagy and other forms of programmed cell death play an increasingly important role. Autophagy is a programmed intracellular degradation process and is a form of programmed cell death. Cells degrade their cytoplasmic components via lysosomes, breaking down and recycling intracellular constituents to meet their metabolic needs, maintain intracellular homeostasis, and renew organelles. During SAKI, autophagy plays a crucial protective role through various mechanisms, including regulating inflammation and immune responses, clearing damaged organelles, and maintaining stability in the intracellular environment. In recent years, the role of autophagy in the pathogenesis and treatment of SAKI has received widespread attention. Research has confirmed that various intracellular signaling pathways and signaling molecules targeting autophagy [such as mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway, AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) signaling pathway, nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway, and Sirtuins (SIRT), autophagy associated factor Beclin-1, and Toll-like receptor (TLR)] are involved in the development of SAKI. Due to the complex pathogenesis of SAKI, current treatment strategies include fluid management, infection control, maintenance of internal environment balance, and renal replacement therapy; however, the mortality remains high. In recent years, it has been found that autophagy plays a critical protective role in sepsis-mediated AKI. As a result, an increasing number of drugs are being developed to alleviate SAKI by regulating autophagy. This article reviews the latest advances in the role of autophagy in the pathogenesis and treatment of SAKI, with the aim of providing insights for the development of new drugs for SAKI patients.

Objective To observe the effect of deglycerolized red blood cells suspended in MAP on preservation and ex-plore the most effective preservation method.Methods Concentrated red blood cells were prepared by centrifuging 400 mL of whole blood on the third day after collection.40%compound glycerol solution was added using the ACP 215 automatic blood cell analyzer,and the resulting mixture was stored in an ultra-low temperature refrigerator at-65℃for 30 days.After thawing and washing,it was equally separated into two bags.The control group received 0.9%sodium chloride solution,while the experimental group received MAP.Both groups were stored at 2-6℃.Hematological parameters,hemolysis inde-xes and cell metabolism indexes were measured on day 0,1,3,5,7 and 14 after storage.The quality changes of both groups were observed during the 14-day storage period.Results The quality of red blood cells in both groups was assessed through a panel of quality tests,including volume,hemoglobin content,free hemoglobin content,white blood cell residue,glycerin residue and sterility.These results met the Quality Requirements outlined in the"Quality Requirements of Whole Blood and Component Blood"(GB18469-2012),Hematocrit,red blood cell count,Hb recovery rate after washing and MCV meet the detection limit outlined in the"Expert Consensus on Quality Evaluation Indicators for Frozen Red Blood Cells",and the residual amount of platelets exceeds the detection limit(≤1%).There were no significant differences in RBC,Hct,MCV and hemoglobin between the two groups during the 14 day storage period.The level of free hemoglobin,hemolysis rate and K+value increased in both groups over time.Significant differences in free hemoglobin were found on day 3,5,7 and 14 between the two groups(P<0.05).Hemolysis rate was significantly different on days 3,5,7 and 14,while K+value was significantly different only on day 14(P<0.05).On day 14,the osmotic fragility of red blood cells was higher in the control group than in the experimental group(P<0.05);The ATP and pH values of both groups decreased as storage time in-creased,and significant differences in ATP and pH value were found on day 3,5,7 and on day 1,3,5,7 and 14,respec-tively(P<0.05).Conclusion Deglycerolized red blood cells suspended in MAP additive solution can extend the storage period of blood to 7 days.This study provides a reference for the formulation of relevant standards.

Objective To observe the efficacy and safety of ultrasound-guided musculocutaneous nerve(MCN)block anesthesia in alleviating operative pain during percutaneous transluminal angioplasty(PTA)for hemodialysis internal fistula.Methods A total of 112 patients undergoing internal fistula PTA in the hemodi-alysis center of the nephrologic department of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Army Military Medical Uni-versity from February 2022 to February 2023 were selected.Among them,47 patients applied the ultrasound-guided MCN block anesthesia(MCN block group)and other 65 patients adopted perivascular local infiltration anesthesia in the injured blood vessel section(local anesthesia group).Anesthesia was independently operated by the vascular access doctor.The VAS score,analgesic satisfaction investigation and motor block evaluation were compared between the two groups,and the efficacy and safety of MCN block anesthesia were under-stood.Results The proportion of the patients with motor block score grade 1 in the MCN block group was the highest(93.6％),and there were no patients with the grade ≥3.The proportion of the patients with the VAS score(4-6)points in the local anesthesia group was the highest(52.3％),while the proportion of the patients with the VAS score(1-3)points in the MCN block group was the highest(76.6％);the proportions of(1-3)points,(4-6)points,(7-10)points and the patients with additional anesthesia had statistical differences between the MCN block group and local anesthesia group(P＜0.05).The satisfaction degree of postoperative analgesia in the local anesthesia group was 55.4％,which was lower than 85.1％in the MCN block group,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion The upper arm MCN block anesthesia could effectively relief the operative pain in arteriovenous internal fistula PTA,and is an effective anesthesia method suitable for the independent operation of hemodialysis channel surgeons.

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 systematically search and evaluate risk prediction models for ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) of ICU in order to provide references for developing higher-quality VAP risk prediction models.Methods:Relevant literature was retrieved from databases including China Biology Medicine disc, WanFang data, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Embase, PubMed, CINAHL, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library. The search timeframe was from the establishment of the databases to September 30, 2023, limited to English and Chinese languages. Two researchers independently screened the literature and extracted data, and the PROBAST tool was used to evaluate the risk of bias and applicability of the included studies.Results:A total of 15 studies on VAP risk prediction models were included. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve for the 15 models ranged from 0.722 to 0.982. The most frequently involved predictors were age, duration of mechanical ventilation, ICU length of stay, and comorbid chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The overall adaptability was good, but the risk of bias was high. The main sources of bias included insufficient sample size, inappropriate data sources, lack of model performance evaluation, and inadequate attention to missing data.Conclusions:The risk of bias in studies on VAP risk prediction models is high, indicating that the field is still developing. Future research should focus on the effectiveness of different risk assessment methods to construct models with low bias, excellent predictive performance, and suitability for clinical practice in China.

ObjectiveTo investigate the distribution of traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndrome types and influencing factors of protein-energy wasting （PEW） in chronic kidney disease （CKD） undergoing maintenance hemodialysis （MHD）. MethodsAccording to diagnostic criteria， 164 patients with MHD were divided into PEW group and non-PEW group. The clinical data of all patients were collected， including general information such as gender， age， height and weight， disease characteristics such as course， cormobidity， and haemodialysis duration， laboratory indicators such as blood routine， liver function， renal function， electrolyte， blood lipid， grip strength， and the four examinations. Logistic regression analysis was used to find the influencing factors of PEW by taking the clinical indicators with significant differences between the two groups （P＜0.05） as the independent variables， diagnosis of PEW as the dependent variable， and normal values as the reference. ResultsOut of 164 patients with MHD， there were 96 （58.5%） cases in PEW group and 68 cases （41.5%） in non-PEW group. Compared to the non-PEW group，PEW group had increased age， ratios of bedrest， deep vein preservation， edema， and low grip strength， percentages of comorbidities type 2 diabetes， cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases，infections and anemia， and levels of alanine aminotransferase and permine amin aminotransferase， as well as decreased body mass index， self-care ratio，internal arteriovenous fistula， red blood cell count， hemoglobin， serum total protein， serum albumin levels （P＜0.05）. The PEW group had significantly higher frequency of poor appetite and digestion， abdominal distension， fear of cold and preference of warmth， weak breathing and fatigue， poor appetite， oliguria， nausea and vomiting than non-PEW group （P＜0.05）. The incidence of both yin and yang deficiency syndrome and damp-turbidity syndrome were significantly higher in the PEW group than the non-PEW group， while that of liver-kidney yin deficiency syndrome and stirring of wind syndrome were lower （P＜0.05）. Logistic regression analysis showed that low BMI （＜22 kg/m²）， inability to take care of oneself， low grip strength，low serum albumin （＜38 g/L）， infection， older age， fear of cold and cold limbs，and poor appetite were the risk factors of PEW in patients undergoing MHD （P＜0.05）. ConclusionThe root syndrome of MHD-PEW patients is both yin and yang deficiency， concurrent with damp-turbidity syndrome. Low BMI， low serum albumin， infection and older age may be the influencing factors of PEW in patients undergoing MHD.

In order to promote the high-quality development of public hospitals and ensure the safety and health of the people, it is important toachieve full traceability and refined management of high-value consumables throughout their entire life cycle.The author designed and implemented a refined management of high-value consumables in orthopedics based on one item, one code. In the closed-loop management process, hospital staff labelled high value orthopedic consumables, achieving the integration of disinfection traceability code, product qualification certificate, and billing traceability code; Three parties, including the chief surgeon, circulating nurse, and handwashing nurse, should sign and confirm the code, ensuring that the item code could not be separated; And real-time intraoperative billing, postoperative counting, and case tracking were used. At the same time, the design utilized a hospital consignment warehouse. The comprehensive promotion of this practice by the hospital saved costs, improved the overall efficiency of the entire business process of orthopedic high-value consumables, and met the requirements of relevant policy supervision and hospital refined management.
