Objective To investigate the effects of autologous blood transfusion and allogeneic blood transfusion on postoperative complications and outcome of patients underwent craniotomy with traumatic brain injury.Methods All transfusional cases underwent emergency craniotomy with trau-matic brain injury from January,2012 to June,201 6,1 61 males and 38 females,ASA physical statusⅠ-Ⅳ,were respectively analyzed and divided into autologous blood group (n = 108)and allogeneic blood group (n =91)based on whether or not using cell salvage.The restrictive transfusion strategy was applied in the two groups and the red blood cells were infused to maintain the hemoglobin concen-tration at 70-100 g/L.The incidence of postoperative complications and adverse transfusion reaction were analyzed and the clinical outcome was judged by Glasgow outcome score (GOS).Results The incidence of postoperative complications (33% vs.56%,P <0.01 )and adverse transfusion reaction (5% vs.14%,P <0.05)of the autologous blood group were lower than that in the allogeneic blood group,and the clinical outcome was better (P <0.01).Logistic regression analysis showed that allo-genetic transfusion (OR =1.953,95%CI 1.381-2.529)was an independent risk factor of postopera-tive complications.Conclusion The use of autologous blood transfusion in patients with traumatic brain injury can reduce the incidence of postoperative complications and the risk of blood transfusion and improve clinical outcome.

Objective: To identify the avian influenza virus subtype from the avian and environmental samples using the Ion Torrent new-generation semiconductor sequencing technology and to establish a high-throughput sequencing method to identify unclassified influenza A virus. Methods: Virus RNA was extracted from the nine avian swab and environmental samples and real-time RT-PCR was carried out to detect universal fluA, H5N1, H7N9 and H9N2. The whole genome of influenza A virus was amplified by PathAmpFluA kit. Sequencing library was prepared using Next Fast DNA Fragmentation & Library Prep Set for Ion Torrent kit and high-throughput sequencing was done by Ion Torrent Personal Genome Machine(PGM). Data from the PGM was processed and quality evaluated using Ion TorrentSuite v3.0 software. Sequence assembly and influenza database blast were carried out by FluAtyping v4.0 and PathogenAnalyzer bioinformatics software to identify the influenza A virus subtype of these nine samples. Results: The results of real-time RT-PCR for universal fluA of these nine samples were positive but the results for H5N1, H7N9 and H9N2 were negative. Seven subtypes of influenza A virus were identified by high-throughput sequencing and bioinformatics analysis: six samples were H2N3, H5N6, H5N8, H7N1, H7N7, H11N3 subtype respectively and three samples were H6N6 subtype. Conclusions Avian influenza virus has many subtypes in the environment of Zhejiang province. Ion Torrent semiconductor sequencing technology is suitable for fast identification of unclassified influenza virus for avian influenza environment monitoring.

Objective:To understand the in vitro antimicrobial resistance and resistance phenotypes profile of Streptococcus suis strains isolated from human in Zhejiang Province. Methods:The strains of sporadic Streptococcus suis infections were isolated during 2005 to 2021 in Zhejiang Province, and were subjected to antimicrobial resistance analysis using agar dilution method. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology was also used to detect 70 resistance genes including tetracyclines, macrolides and aminoglycosides. Results:The results of antimicrobial resistance analysis showed that these strains were sensitive to eleven kinds of antimicrobial agents with a sensitivity rate ≥96.8%, including cefepime, cefotaxime, ceftriaxone, chloramphenicol, daptomycin, ertapenem, levofloxacin, linezolid, meropenem, penicillin and vancomycin. These strains were mainly resistant to tetracycline, clindamycin, azithromycin and erythromycin, especially resistant to tetracycline with a rate of 93.5%(29/31). Fourteen strains (45.2%) exhibited multidrug resistant patterns. The PCR analysis of 70 drug resistance genes showed that 14(20.0%) different resistance genes were detected. The highest detection rate of resistant genes came from tetracycline, including tet ( O) gene (58.1%, 18/31), tet ( M) gene (48.4%, 15/31), tet ( 40) gene (35.5%, 11/31), followed by ermB gene (41.9%, 13/31) in the class of macrolide. Fourteen strains (45.2%) with more than three drug resistance genes were detected, of which eight strains (25.8%) detected 10 drug resistance genes. The analysis of antibiotic resistance and resistance phenotypes profile showed that tet ( M)+ ST7 accounted for 35.5%(11/31), tet( O)+ tet( 40)+ ermB+ mef( A)+ mef( A/ E)+ msrD+ Ant( 6)- Ⅰb+ aph( 3′)- Ⅲa+ aadB+ sat4+ ST7 accounted for 25.8%(8/31). Conclusions:The antimicrobial resistance and resistance phenotypes profile of sporadic Streptococcus suis strains isolated from human in Zhejiang Province are endemic, with mainly two types of characteristic genetic cloning of drug resistance genes.

Objective: The objective of this study was to establish a next generation sequencing (NGS) method for severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus(SFTS). Methods: SFTS virus RNA was extracted from the patient serum inoculated and isolated by Vero cells. Two methods of random primer sequencing and oligo(dT) beads selection sequencing were used for library construction. The libraries were built based on the best amplification and purification conditions. Whole genome sequencing was performed on NGS platform. Results: There were significant differences in data of 3 virus between the two methods.The sample was sequenced by random primer sequencing showed low coverage and depth. However, three samples were sequenced by oligo(dT) beads selection showed coverage was over 99% and depth was over 900.The alignment rate of database from NCBI was more than 90%. The initial detection quality of this method was 300ng RNA. Conclusions In this study, we used the method of oligo(dT) beads selection to build libraries, and established a SFTS virus genome detection based on next generation sequencing.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with microwave ablation (MWA) (TACE-MWA) versus repeat resection (RR) in the treatment of recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (RHCC). Methods A total of 178 patients with RHCC who were admitted to The Second People's Hospital of Neijiang from June 2015 to September 2020 were enrolled, and according to the treatment modality, they were divided into RR group with 64 patients and TACE-MWA group with 114 patients. Baseline demographic data, liver function, and tumor conditions before treatment were recorded, and the patients were followed up to October 2021 to compare postoperative overall survival (OS) time and recurrence-free survival (RFS) time between the two groups. Subgroup analysis based on recurrence pattern (recurrence time and tumor size) was performed, and the influencing factors for prognosis were analyzed. The independent samples t -test was used for comparison of continuous data between groups, and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data; the Kaplan-Meier method was used for postoperative survival rate, the Log-rank test was used for survival difference analysis, and a multivariate Cox regression analysis was used to investigate independent risk factors for survival. Results The multivariate analysis showed that tumor diameter, alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) level, alanine aminotransferase, albumin, and time to recurrence were independent prognostic factors for OS (all P < 0.05), and AFP level and time to recurrence were independent prognostic factors for RFS (both P < 0.05). For RHCC with late recurrence (> 2 years), there were significant differences between the two groups in median OS (54.0 months vs 36.0 months, χ 2 =6.171, P =0.013) and median RFS (28.0 months vs 21.0 months, χ 2 = 5.211, P =0.022). For RHCC with a tumor diameter of ≤5 cm, there was a significant difference in median OS between the two groups (33.0 months vs 27.0 months, χ 2 =6.447, P =0.011). Conclusion RR has a similar clinical effect to TACE-MWA in RHCC with early recurrence or a tumor diameter of > 5 cm, but RR should be the first choice for RHCC with late recurrence or a tumor diameter of ≤5 cm.
