【Objective】 This study endeavors to introduce the statistical process control (SPC) method to analyze the quality control index concerning red blood cells in additive solution with leukocytes reduced, with the aspiration to advance the effective utilization of blood quality control data, thereby providing empirical foundations for the continual enhancement of blood quality. 【Methods】 Between 2020 and 2022, test data pertaining to the quality control index of red blood cells in additive solution with leukocytes reduced were amassed from six blood stations in Chongqing area. Utilizing Minitab software, the SPC analysis was carried out, p-control charts were delineated, the non-conformance rates of each quality control index along with their 95% confidence intervals were computed, as well as the Process Capability Index (Z value). 【Results】 In accordance with the Whole Blood and Blood Components Quality Requirements, the appraisal of the quality control indexes for red blood cells in additive solution with leukocytes reduced manifested a conformity rate of 100% for appearance, end-of-storage hemolysis rate and sterility test. Nonetheless, the conformity rates for volume, hemoglobin, hematocrit and residual leukocytes did not attain 100%, albeit all were ≥75%. Through the employment of binomial distribution-based p-control charts, the controlled state of the production process was discerned. Although the overarching conformity rate satisfied the national standard stipulations, it was discerned that there were out-of-control points concerning volume, hemoglobin, hematocrit, and residual leukocytes across different institutions, exhibiting palpable trends. The non-conformance rates of all quality control indexes were less than 25%, yet at a 95% confidence level, the residual leukocyte counts from institutions B, C, E, and F did not adhere to the stipulations (exceeding 25%). By architecting the ability evaluation index Z value for count data process capability analysis, it was unveiled that the volume of institution E, the hematocrit of institutions B, C, and F, and the residual leukocytes Z values of all six blood collection and supply institutions were below 2, hinting at avenues for amelioration. 【Conclusion】 The SPC method anchored in binomial distribution exhibits substantial application merit in blood component quality management, facilitating real-time surveillance of blood collection, preparation, and storage procedures.

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.

AIM:To investigate the reparative effect of extracellular vesicles(EVs)derived from H9 human embryonic stem cells(H9-hESCs)on endometrial injury.METHODS:EVs were isolated from the culture supernatant of H9-hESCs and characterized.A mouse model of endometrial injury was established,with bilateral uterine divisions into an EVs experimental group and a PBS control group.EVs and PBS were injected respectively.Histological changes in the endometrium were assessed using HE staining,and proliferating cell nuclear antigen(PCNA)expression was analyzed via immunohistochemistry.The impact of EVs on the proliferation of human endometrial stromal cells(hEndoSCs)was eva-luated using EdU staining and Western blot.RESULTS:H9-hESCs-EVs exhibited a membrane-structured nanobody with a particle size of(144.7±2.1)nm and expressed characteristic proteins CD63 and TSG101.Compared to the PBS control group,the EVs group showed increased endometrial tissue morphology,thickness,and gland numbers.The average opti-cal density of PCNA expression significantly increased in the EVs group compared to the PBS group(P<0.05).Results from EdU staining and Western blot demonstrated that H9-hESCs-EVs promoted hEndoSC proliferation,with a positive correlation observed between H9-hESCs-EVs and EVs protein concentration(P<0.05).CONCLUSION:H9-hESCs-EVs enhance the repair of endometrial injury by stimulating the proliferation of endometrial stromal cells.

Objective To investigate the impulsivity and aggressiveness characteristics of patients with hepatolenticular degeneration (HLD) and its relationship with brain structure.Methods The Chinese version of the Barratt impulsiveness scale,11 version (BIS-1 1-C) and Buss-Perry aggression questionnaire (BPAQ) were assessed in 78 patients with hepatolenticular degeneration(HLD group) and 86 normal adults (health control group).HLD patients were examined by 3.0T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).The differences in impulsivity and aggressiveness of the two groups were compared,and the relationship was analyzed between impulsivity,aggressiveness and different brain structures in patients with HLD.Results The total impulsive score,unplanned factor score,the total aggressive score and anger factor score of patients with cerebral HLD (61.74±9.82,26.08±5.06,82.71 ± 15.92,20.06± 5.74,respectively) were higher than those in patients with hepatic HLD (56.73±7.11,23.02±4.20,72.84± 11.15,16.64±5.01,respectively),and health control group(52.19±7.53,21.50± 3.93,64.64±9.83,14.27 ±4.38,respectively),and the differences were significant (F=3.193,4.646,11.830,8.270,all P＜0.05).Total impulsive score was positively correlated with aggressive score and physical aggression in HLD group(r=0.299,0.290,both P＜0.05).Unplanned score was positively correlated with aggressive total score (r=0.324) and physical aggression (r=0.320) in HLD group (P＜0.05).Frontal lobe injury was the influencing factor of total impulsive score(B=10.263,95％CI=0.467-19.946,P=0.008),attention score(B=2.837,95％CI=0.382-5.600,P=0.010) and unplanned factor score (B=3.977,95％ CI=0.848-8.502,P=0.046).Thalamus injury was the influencing factor of aggressive total score and its factor score.Caudate nucleus injury was the influencing factor of aggressive total score (B=10.030,95％ CI=3.351-18.039,P=0.017) and physical aggression score (B =4.432,95％ CI=1.193-7.729,P=0.016).Conclusion Patients with HLD have higher impulsive and aggressive tendencies,which are mainly manifested in unplanned impulsive and anger tendencies.Brain injury may be an important factor affecting impulsiveness and aggression in patients with HLD.Impulsiveness is related with frontal lobe injury and aggression to thalamus and caudate nucleus injury.Impulsiveness and aggressiveness in patients with HLD are not caused by damage to isolated brain areas,but are related to damage to multiple brain areas.

Objective To explore cognitive impairment and related factors in patients with Wilson disease (WD) and to screen the risk factors of cognitive impairment in order to provide evidence for clinical intervention. Methods The Chinese Version Addenbrooke＇s Cognitive Examination-III (ACE-III-C) was used to assess the cognitive function. The WD patients with cognitive impairment were analyzed the difference between those with non-cognitive disorders in the Young scale, Baethel scale and biochemical indicators. Risk factors for cognitive impairment in WD patients were analyzed by multiple linear regression. Results Cognitive impairment occurred in 43 (59.7%) of 72 patients with WD. ACE-III-C total score, attention, memory, language fluency, visual spatial factor scores, Young scores, Barthel scores and serum copper levels were significantly different between patients with cognitive impairment and patients with non-cognitive impairment (P＜0.01). Linear regression analysis showed that serum copper levels were the most important risk factors for ACE-III-C total score and cognitive subfields (P＜0.01). Serum zinc levels as a secondary risk factor of language fluency and visual space (P＜0.05). Age-related participation affected language fluency (P＜0.05). Conclusions Serum copper and zinc levels may be the main risk factors of cognitive impairment. Modulation of serum copper and zinc levels may be the key for intervention to treat cognitive impairment in WD patients.

Neddylation is a post-translational protein modification process. MLN4924 is a newly discovered pharmaceutical neddylation inhibitor that suppresses cancer growth with several cancer types. In our study, we first investigated the effect of MLN4924 on colon cancer cells (HCT116 and HT29). MLN4924 significantly inhibited the neddylation of cullin-1 and colon cancer cell growth in a time and dose-dependent manner. MLN4924 induced G2/M cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in HCT116 and HT29 cells. Moreover, MLN4924 also triggered autophagy in HCT116 and HT29 cells via suppressing the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. Inhibiting autophagy by autophagy inhibitor 3-MA or ATG5 knockdown reversed the function of MLN4924 in suppressing colon cancer cell growth and cell death. Interestingly, MLN4924 suppresses colon cell growth in a xenograft model. Together, our finding revealed that blocking neddylation is an attractive colon cancer therapy strategy, and autophagy might act as a novel anti-cancer mechanism for the treatment of colon cancer by MLN4924.

BACKGROUND:Angiotensin II receptor antagonists have been found to exerct a stronger protective effect on bone than angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of different concentrations of irbesartan (angiotensin II receptor antagonist) on the differentiation and mineralization of mouse preosteoblasts. METHODS:Mouse preosteoblast cel lines MC3T3-E1 in logarithmic phase were selected and cultured in the osteogenic induction medium containing 0 (control group), 0.001, 0.01, 0.1 mmol/L irbesartan, respectively. Ten days later, the cel differentiation was observed by alkaline phosphatase staining. The mineralization was observed by alizarin red staining after 21 days of culture. mRNA expressions of osteocalcin, alkaline phosphatase and Runt-associated transcription factor 2 in osteoblasts were detected by real-time PCR at 1, 4, 7, 14 and 21 days of culture. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The activity of alkaline phosphatase in al the irbesartan groups (0, 0.001, 0.01, 0.1) was higher than that in the control group (P<0.05), which was the most obvious in 0.01 mmol/L. The number and area of calcium nodules in each irbesartan group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05), especial y in 0.01 mmol/L. Compared with the control group, 0.01 mmol/L irbesartan significantly upregulated the mRNA expressions of osteocalcin, alkaline phosphatase and Runt-associated transcription factor 2 (P<0.05). These results suggest that 0.01 mmol/L irbesartan significantly promotes the differentiation and mineralization of osteoblasts.

Objective To examine the brain metabolic changes in WD patients receiving copper chelation by us?ing 1H-MRS. Method Thirty-nine patients with WD was randomly divided into four groups: non-brain type group (18 cases), brain type prior-treatment group and short-term treatment group (21 cases), long-term treatment group (20 cases) from short-term treatment group, and 20 healthy volunteers served as a control group. 1H-MRS and MRI were performed on patients on 1.5/MR/MRS system to detect these above-mentioned items before and after treatment. Result The mean of NAA/Cr was significantly lower in the left putamen and head of the caudate nucleus than in the left basal ganglion in the 39 patients with WD. The mean of NAA/Cr and Cho/Cr in the left putamen and basal ganglion was significantly lower in non-brain type group than in control group(P<0.01). The mean of NAA/Cr Cho/Cr and NAA/Cho in the left putamen,head of the caudate nucleus and basal ganglion were significantly lower in brain type group than in control group(P<0.01 or P<0.05). The mean of NAA/Cr in the left putamen was much lower in brain type group than in non-brain type group (P<0.01). The mean of NAA/Cr, Cho/Cr and NAA/Cho of short-term treatment group in the left putamen, head of the caudate nucleus and basal ganglion was not significantly different between brain type group and short-term treatment group(P>0.05). The mean of NAA/Cr and NAA/Cho in the left putamen and basal ganglion was much higher in long-term treatment group than in brain type group(P<0.01 or P<0.05). The mean of Cho/Cr in the left head of caudate nucleus were much higher after treatment compared with prior-treatment group(P<0.05). The mean of NAA/Cr in the left putamen, head of the left caudate nucleus and basal ganglion in all groups was negatively correlated with course of the disease. Conclusion There are significant differences in brain metabolism among different type of WD. The long-term but not short-term copper chelation significantly improves brain metabolism. NAA/Cr may be used as a non-invasive indicator to examine the efficacy of treatment.
