PURPOSE: To investigate the protective effect of sub-hypothermic mechanical perfusion combined with membrane lung oxygenation on ischemic hypoxic injury of yorkshire brain tissue caused by traumatic blood loss. METHODS: This article performed a random controlled trial. Brain tissue of 7 yorkshire was selected and divided into the sub-low temperature anterograde machine perfusion group (n = 4) and the blank control group (n = 3) using the random number table method. A yorkshire model of brain tissue injury induced by traumatic blood loss was established. Firstly, the perfusion temperature and blood oxygen saturation were monitored in real-time during the perfusion process. The number of red blood cells, hemoglobin content, NA⁺, K⁺, and Ca²⁺ ions concentrations and pH of the perfusate were detected. Following perfusion, we specifically examined the parietal lobe to assess its water content. The prefrontal cortex and hippocampus were then dissected for histological evaluation, allowing us to investigate potential regional differences in tissue injury. The blank control group was sampled directly before perfusion. All statistical analyses and graphs were performed using GraphPad Prism 8.0 Student t-test. All tests were two-sided, and p value of less than 0.05 was considered to indicate statistical significance. RESULTS: The contents of red blood cells and hemoglobin during perfusion were maintained at normal levels but more red blood cells were destroyed 3 h after the perfusion. The blood oxygen saturation of the perfusion group was maintained at 95% - 98%. NA⁺ and K⁺ concentrations were normal most of the time during perfusion but increased significantly at about 4 h. The Ca²⁺ concentration remained within the normal range at each period. Glucose levels were slightly higher than the baseline level. The pH of the perfusion solution was slightly lower at the beginning of perfusion, and then gradually increased to the normal level. The water content of brain tissue in the sub-low and docile perfusion group was 78.95% ± 0.39%, which was significantly higher than that in the control group (75.27% ± 0.55%, t = 10.49, p < 0.001), and the difference was statistically significant. Compared with the blank control group, the structure and morphology of pyramidal neurons in the prefrontal cortex and CA1 region of the hippocampal gyrus were similar, and their integrity was better. The structural integrity of granulosa neurons was destroyed and cell edema increased in the perfusion group compared with the blank control group. Immunofluorescence staining for glail fibrillary acidic protein and Iba1, markers of glial cells, revealed well-preserved cell structures in the perfusion group. While there were indications of abnormal cellular activity, the analysis showed no significant difference in axon thickness or integrity compared to the 1-h blank control group. CONCLUSIONS Mild hypothermic machine perfusion can improve ischemia and hypoxia injury of yorkshire brain tissue caused by traumatic blood loss and delay the necrosis and apoptosis of yorkshire brain tissue by continuous oxygen supply, maintaining ion homeostasis and reducing tissue metabolism level.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between Ig class switch recombination (CSR) and mismatch repair (MMR) protein, microsatellite phenotype in extranodal marginal zone lymphoma of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma). METHODS: Forty cases of MALT lymphoma archived in the Department of Pathology, Jiading District Central Hospital, Shanghai University of Medicine & Health Sciences were selected as the observation group, and twenty cases of benign lymphoid tissue hyperplasia were as the control group. The expressions of IgG, IgM, IgD, and IgA in both groups were detected by immunohistochemical double staining, and MMR proteins including MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, and PMS2 in both groups were detected by immunohistochemistry. Multiplex fluorescence PCR capillary electrophoresis was used to detect microsatellite phenotype in tumor and adjacent tissues of the experimental group. RESULTS: In the observation group, the proportions of single Ig heavy chain expression (modeⅠ), negative expression (modeⅡ), and multiple expression (mode Ⅲ) were 65% (26/40), 27.5% (11/40), and 7.5% (3/40), respectively, while in the control group were 0 (0/20), 5% (1/20), and 95% (19/20). The proportion of Ig heavy chain expression mode Ⅰ+Ⅱ in the observation group was 92.5%, which was significantly higher than 5% in the control group (P < 0.01). In the observation group, partial deletion of MMR protein was observed in 3 cases (7.5%), including 2 cases of MSH6 deletion and 1 case of both MSH6 and PMS2 deletion. In the control group, there was 1 case (5%) with PMS2 deletion. There was no significant difference in the deletion rate of MMR protein between the two groups ( P >0.05). A total of 5 cases of microsatellite instability (MSI) were detected in the observation group, including 1 case of low-frequency MSI (MSI-L), 4 cases of high-frequency MSI (MSI-H), and 2 cases of MSI-H with MSH6 deletion. When the loss expression of MSI-H or MMR protein was counted as a positive result, the MSI-H rate detected by PCR capillary electrophoresis was 10% (4/40), which was slightly higher than the MMR protein deletion rate detected by immunohistochemistry (7.5%, 3/40), but there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups (P >0.05). The MMR protein deletion rates among the Ig heavy chain protein expression mode Ⅰ, mode Ⅱ, and mode Ⅲ groups were 0 (0/26), 18.2% (2/11), and 33.3% (1/3), respectively. There was a statistically significant difference in the constituent ratios among the three groups (P < 0.05). The MMR protein deletion rates among the MSS, MSI-L, and MSI-H groups were 2.9% (1/35), 0 (0/1), and 50% (2/4), respectively. There was a statistically significant difference in the constituent ratios among the three groups (P < 0.05). MMR protein deficiency was positively correlated with Ig heavy chain expression pattern and MSI ( r =0.41, P < 0.05; r =0.48, P < 0.05), but Ig heavy chain expression pattern was not correlated with MSI ( r =0.02, P >0.05). CONCLUSION Ig heavy chain CSR detection is helpful for the differential diagnosis of MALT lymphoma. Low frequency MMR protein deletion and MSI-H phenotype exist in MALT lymphoma, which may be of certain value for the study of its occurrence, development and clinical treatment.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical characteristics, treatment and prognosis of adult AML patients with NUP98::HOXA9 fusion gene. METHODS: From May 2017 to October 2023， among 2 113 AML patients who visited the Hematology Department of our hospital, patients with NUP98 rearrangements were screened. The clinical characteristics, chromosome karyotypes, immunophenotypes, gene mutations, treatment efficacy and prognosis of the patients with NUP98::HOXA9 positive were analyzed. RESULTS: Among the 2 113 AML patients, there were 18 cases with NUP98 rearrangement, including 14 NUP98::HOXA9 positive cases, with a detection rate of 0.66% (14/2 113). The median age of the NUP98::HOXA9 positive patients was 42.5 (23-64) years old. The most common chromosome karyotype was t(7; 11)(p15; p15). The immunophenotypes of all patients expressed CD13, CD33, CD117 and CD38, and most patients expressed CD34 and cMPO, while only a few expressed HLA-DR. Second-generation sequencing (NGS) was performed to detect genetic mutations associated with leukemia in all 14 patients, and the genes exhibiting a high frequency of mutation were WT1 (10/14), TET2 (7/14), and FLT3-ITD (6/14). Additionally, mutations were also observed in KRAS/NRAS, IDH1, and KIT. Of the 13 patients who received treatment, 9 achieved complete remission (CR), and all 3 patients who received azacytidine(AZA)+ venetoclax (VEN) regimen achieved CR after the first course of treatment. Within this cohort, 6 patients were classified as relapsed/refractory (6/13). 4 patients underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT), of which two achieved long-term survival. The median follow-up time was 12 (2.1-65.0) months, while the median overall survival (OS) and relapse-free survival (RFS) were recorded as 11.4 months and 9.6 months, respectively. CONCLUSION The most common type of NUP98 rearrangement in adults AML patients is NUP98::HOXA9 , which is often accompanied by somatic mutations in WT1, TET2, and FLT3-ITD. These patients are prone to relapse, have short survival time, and generally face poor prognoses. Hopefully, utilization of the AZA+VEN regimen is anticipated to enhance the rate of induced remission in the patients, and some patients may prolong their survival through allo-HSCT. However, more effective treatment methods are still needed to improve the overall prognosis of these patients.

Objective To propose a random forest(RF)algorithm-based prediction method for diabetic retinopathy(DR)to solve the problems due to multi feature dimension for detecting diabetes follow-up data and outliers and noises in the values of some indicators in the disease samples.Methods Firstly,the feature selection of the follow-up dataset of diabetic patients from the endocrinology and metabolism departments of Shanghai Jiao Tong University Affiliated Sixth People's Hospital and Kobe University Hospital in Japan was carried out using the Weka tool to screen out the features or subsets that were hightly correlated with DR;secondly,a model for assisting clinical diagnosis of DR was constructed based on feature subsets and RF algorithm;finally,model comparison experiments and ablation experiments were performed to validate the model performance and to determine which feature contributed the most to the model.Results The feature subset containing disease duration,glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c),thyroid stimulating hormone(TSH),total bilirubin(T-bilirubin),low density lipoprotein(LDL),serum creatinine(sCr)and albumin(ALB)correlated the most with RF.A model was constructed based on the above findings with RF algorithm,which behaved better than other models in terms of precision(0.92),accuracy(0.91),F1 score(0.91)and AUC(0.95).The results of ablation experiments showed that the disease duration contributed the most to the model,followed by albumin and serum creatinine,and then by LDL,total bilirubin,glycosylated hemoglobin and thyroid stimulating hormone.Conclusion The RF algorithm-based prediction method with high accuracy can be used for assisted diagnosis of DR.[Chinese Medical Equipment Journal,2024,45(11):8-14]

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75％(27/36);boys accounted for 64％(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86％)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53％)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61％)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36％)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75％)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72％)and seizures in 10 neonates(34％).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33％,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44％(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

Objective To investigate the implementation of surveillance,prevention and control measures for healthcare-associated infection(HAI)in maternal and child healthcare(MCH)institutions,and provide policy evi-dence for optimizing HAI prevention and control in MCH institutions.Methods Stratified sampling was conducted among the MCH institutions at provincial,municipal and county levels in 8 provinces/autonomous regions.A uni-fied questionnaire was designed and the online survey was conducted through"Questionnaire Star".Results The data from 123 MCH institutions were included in the analysis.90.24％of the MCH institutions carried out compre-hensive surveillance on HAI.The ratios of MCH institutions which implemented targeted surveillance on HAI in neonatal intensive care unit(NICU),surgical site infection,multidrug-resistant organisms(MDROs)and HAI in intensive care units(non-NICU excluded)were 89.66％,85.96％,80.77％,and 74.19％,respectively.51.22％MCH institutions adopted information surveillance system on HAI cases.94.31％MCH institutions carried out surveillance on hand hygiene compliance.Over 90％MCH institutions carried out surveillance on environment hy-giene in high-risk departments.71.54％MCH institutions conducted centralized cleaning,disinfection,sterilization and supply for reusable medical instruments in the central sterile supply department(CSSD).Over 90％MCH insti-tutions established three-level pre-examination triage systems.86.18％set up transitional wards.MCH institutions generally adopted a management model with established effective communication,full appointment visits,and sepa-rate visits for special medical groups,such as registered pregnant women,high-risk newborns,healthcare groups,and long-term rehabilitation patients.However,the ratio of institutions conducting on-line follow-up visits was less than 50％.Conclusion MCH institutions have generally carried out comprehensive and targeted surveillance on HAI.Information surveillance need to be facilitated.Hand hygiene and environmental hygiene surveillance has been popularized to a certain extent at all levels of MCH institutions.The cleaning,disinfection,sterilization,and supply processes of reusable medical devices in a few MCH institutions are not standardized.Special medical populations get effective management.On-line healthcare is to be further promoted.

Cells undergo glucose metabolism reprogramming under the influence of the inflammatory microenvironment, changing their primary mode of energy supply from oxidative phosphorylation to aerobic glycolysis. This process is involved in all stages of inflammation-related diseases development. Glucose metabolism reprogramming not only changes the metabolic pattern of individual cells, but also disrupts the metabolic homeostasis of the body microenvironment, which further promotes aerobic glycolysis and provides favourable conditions for the malignant progression of inflammation-related diseases. The metabolic enzymes, transporter proteins, and metabolites of aerobic glycolysis are all key signalling molecules, and drugs can inhibit aerobic glycolysis by targeting these specific key molecules to exert therapeutic effects. This paper reviews the impact of glucose metabolism reprogramming on the development of inflammation-related diseases such as inflammation-related tumours, rheumatoid arthritis and Alzheimer's disease, and the therapeutic effects of drugs targeting glucose metabolism reprogramming on these diseases.
