Purpose: Vaccinia virus is widely used as an oncolytic agent for human cancer therapy, and several versions of vaccinia virus have demonstrated robust antitumor effects in breast cancer. Most vaccinia viruses are modified by thymidine kinase (TK) deletion. The function of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p21 in breast cancer remains controversial. We explored the impact of p21 gene knockdown (KD) on breast cancer cells and whether p21 KD interferes with the antitumor effect of TK-negative vaccinia virus. Methods: p21 KD MDA-MB-231 and p21 KD MCF-7 cells were prepared, and cell proliferation and migration rates were evaluated using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) and scratch healing assays. The tumor growth of xenografts originating from p21KD MDA-MB-231 cells and control cells was compared in a mouse model. The colony formation and sphere-forming abilities of p21 KD breast cancer cells were also determined using low-melting agarose and serum-free culture. The tumorkilling effect of the vaccinia virus was determined in breast cancer cells and mouse models using an MTT assay and tumor cell xenografts. Results: p21 KD increased the growth and migration of MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 cells and promoted the cell growth of MDA-MB-231 cells in mice, while decreasing the colony formation and sphere formation abilities. Expression of TK was reduced in p21 KD MDAMB-231 cells. Oncolytic effects of both wild-type and TK-deleted vaccinia viruses were attenuated in p21KD MDA-MB-231 cells. The tumor-killing effect of TK-deleted vaccinia virus was also weakened in xenografted mice bearing p21 KD MDA-MB-231 cells. Conclusion Targeted inhibition of p21 accelerates the proliferation and migration of breast cancer cells and impairs the tumor-killing effect of vaccinia virus, suggesting that p21 levels in cancer cells interfere with vaccinia virus oncolytic therapy.

The World Health Organization (WHO) classification serves as the internationally recognized standard for diagnosing and classifying hematopoietic and lymphoid tissue tumors(WHO-HEAM). Since 2001, it has undergone multiple upgrades and revisions, updating, clarifying, and refining previous tumor diagnostic and classification standards while incorporating numerous new genetic and molecular biological subtypes. In 2022, two classification proposals emerged due to a wealth of clinical and scientific research results: the fifth edition of the WHO hematopoietic and lymphoid tissue classification (WHO-HAEM5), published in Leukemia journal; and the International Consensus Classification (ICC), published in Blood journal. These two schemes differ in their approach to classifying hematopoietic and lymphoid tissue tumors, posing challenges for clinical laboratory diagnosis and treatment.

During coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic, the treatment of severe trauma has been impacted. The Consensus on emergency surgery and infection prevention and control for severe trauma patients with 2019 novel corona virus pneumonia was published online on February 12, 2020, providing a strong guidance for the emergency treatment of severe trauma and the self-protection of medical staffs in the early stage of the epidemic. With the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council renaming "novel coronavirus pneumonia" to "novel coronavirus infection" and the infection being managed with measures against class B infectious diseases since January 8, 2023, the consensus published in 2020 is no longer applicable to the emergency treatment of severe trauma in the new stage of epidemic prevention and control. In this context, led by the Chinese Traumatology Association, Chinese Trauma Surgeon Association, Trauma Medicine Branch of Chinese International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, and Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Traumatology, the Chinese expert consensus on emergency surgery for severe trauma and infection prevention during coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic ( version 2023) is formulated to ensure the effectiveness and safety in the treatment of severe trauma in the new stage. Based on the policy of the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council and by using evidence-based medical evidence as well as Delphi expert consultation and voting, 16 recommendations are put forward from the four aspects of the related definitions, infection prevention, preoperative assessment and preparation, emergency operation and postoperative management, hoping to provide a reference for severe trauma care in the new stage of the epidemic prevention and control.

【Objective】 To explore the effect of recovery autologous blood transfusion combined with bilateral internal iliac artery presetting in high-risk patients with hemorrhage during cesarean section. 【Methods】 A total of 162 high-risk patients with hemorrhage who underwent cesarean section from January 2021 to May 2023 in our hospital were prospectively selected and divided into in Groups A, B, and C with 54 cases in each group according to the indications for the method of transfusion. Group A received allogeneic blood transfusion, Group B received autologous blood transfusion, Group C received autologous blood transfusion combined with bilateral internal iliac artery balloon presetting. 【Results】 Intraoperative blood loss (mL) (1 600 vs 1 500 vs 800), postoperative hospital stay(d) (7 vs 7 vs 6) and operative time(min) (107 vs 104.50 vs 77) in group C were all lower than those in group A and B (P<0.05), with no difference between group A and B (P>0.05); The autologous blood transfusion volume(mL) in group C was lower than that in group B (525.5 vs 261, P<0.05). The proportion of allogeneic erythrocytes in group C was lower than that in group A (22.22% vs 100.00%, P<0.016 7). The proportion of plasma in group C was lower than that in groups A and B (18.50% vs 66.70%/18.50% vs 44.40%, P<0.016 7). The incidence of coagulating dysfunction in group C was lower than that in group A (7.41% vs 25.93%, P<0.016 7). The incidence of hysterectomy in group C was lower than that in group A (1.85% vs 16.67%, P<0.016 7), and there was no difference between group A and B (16.67% vs 11.11%, P>0.016 7). 【Conclusion】 Recovery autologous blood transfusion combined with bilateral internal iliac artery balloon presetting in cesarean section for high-risk patients with hemorrhage achieved ideal effects, which can significantly reduce intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative autologous blood transfusion, allogeneic red blood cells and plasma transfusion, as well as the operation time and postoperative hospital stay. In addition, it can improve the coagulation function and hysterectomy, which is conducive to ensuring the safety of maternal and promoting early rehabilitation, and preserving the fertility of patients to a certain extent, which is worthy of further clinical promotion.

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether an optimal blood suppression inversion time (BSP TI) can boost arterial visibility and whether the optimal BSP TI is related to breathing rate (BR) and heart rate (HR) for hypertension subjects in spatial labeling with multiple inversion pulses (SLEEK). MATERIALS AND METHODS: This prospective study included 10 volunteers and 93 consecutive hypertension patients who had undergone SLEEK at 1.5T MRI system. Firstly, suitable BSP TIs for displaying clearly renal artery were determined in 10 volunteers. Secondly, non-contrast enhanced magnetic resonance angiography with the suitable BSP TIs were performed on those hypertension patients. Then, renal artery was evaluated and an optimal BSP TI to increase arterial visibility was determined for each patient. Patients' BRs and HRs were recorded and their relationships with the optimal BSP TI were analyzed. RESULTS: The optimal BSP TI was negatively correlated with BR (r1 = -0.536, P1 < 0.001; and r2 = -0.535, P2 < 0.001) and HR (r1 = -0.432, P1 = 0.001; and r2 = -0.419, P2 = 0.001) for 2 readers (kappa = 0.93). For improving renal arterial visibility, BSP TI = 800 ms could be applied as the optimal BSP TI when the 95% confidence interval were 17-19/min (BR1) and 74-82 bpm (HR1) for reader#1 and 17-19/min (BR2) and 74-83 bpm (HR2) for reader#2; BSP TI = 1100 ms while 14-15/min (BR1, 2) and 71-76 bpm (HR1, 2) for both readers; and BSP TI = 1400 ms when 13-16/min (BR1) and 63-68 bpm (HR1) for reader#1 and 14-15/min (BR2) and 64-70 bpm (HR2) for reader#2. CONCLUSION: In SLEEK, BSP TI is affected by patients' BRs and HRs. Adopting the optimal BSP TI based on BR and HR can improve the renal arterial visibility and consequently the working efficiency.
