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.

ObjectiveTo establish the clinical comprehensive evaluation index system for Chinese patent medicine(CPM) based on Evidence and Value:Impact on DEcisionMaking(EVIDEM) framework, so as to promote the scientific, systematic and standardized implementation of clinical comprehensive evaluation of CPM. MethodThe clinical comprehensive evaluation index system was determined through literature review, semi-structured interview and Delphi method, and the weights of each index were clarified by analytic hierarchy process(AHP). ResultThe recovery rates of both rounds of expert consultation were 100%, and the authority coefficient of experts was 0.90 and 0.905, respectively. Kendall's coordination coefficients(W) of the second- and third-level indicators in the first-round consultation were 0.320 and 0.283(P<0.001), and in the second round were 0.411 and 0.351, respectively(P<0.001). The finally constructed clinical comprehensive evaluation index system for CPM included 6 first-level indicators, 13 second-level indicators and 28 third-level indicators. Among the first-level indicators, the weights of effectiveness, safety, economy, innovation, suitability and accessibility were 37.34%, 32.68%, 11.85%, 5.87%, 5.79% and 6.47%, respectively. ConclusionThis study has constructed a universal clinical comprehensive evaluation index system for CPM, and the domain and criteria are introduced and interpreted in detail, which can provide reference and information for carrying out the clinical comprehensive evaluation of CPM, but it needs to be refined and improved in combination with the clinical practice of CPM for specialized diseases.

Excavating the quantitative trait locus (QTL) associated with rice cooking quality, analyzing candidate genes, and improving cooking quality-associated traits of rice varieties by genetic breeding can effectively improve the taste of rice. In this study, we used the indica rice HZ, the japonica rice Nekken2 and 120 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) populations constructed from them as experimental materials to measure the gelatinization temperature (GT), gel consistency (GC) and amylose content (AC) of rice at the maturity stage. We combined the high-density genetic map for QTL mapping. A total of 26 QTLs associated with rice cooking quality (1 QTL associated with GT, 13 QTLs associated with GC, and 12 QTLs associated with AC) were detected, among which the highest likelihood of odd (LOD) value reached 30.24. The expression levels of candidate genes in the localization interval were analyzed by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), and it was found that the expression levels of six genes were significantly different from that in parents. It was speculated that the high expression of LOC_Os04g20270 and LOC_Os11g40100 may greatly increase the GC of rice, while the high expression of LOC_Os01g04920 and LOC_Os02g17500 and the low expression of LOC_Os03g02650 and LOC_Os05g25840 may reduce the AC. The results lay a molecular foundation for the cultivation of new high-quality rice varieties, and provide important genetic resources for revealing the molecular regulation mechanism of rice cooking quality.

ObjectiveBased on knowledge mapping, the studies on prediction models in the field of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) were visually analyzed, which provided a reference basis for the excavation and evolution of the future research direction by combing the development process and summarizing the research hotspots and dynamic trends. MethodChina National Knowledge Infrastructure and Web of Science Core Collection databases were searched to obtain studies on prediction models in the field of TCM from inception to February 28, 2023. Endnote X20 software was used for document management. Knowledge mapping generated by CiteSpace software and VOSviewer software was used to visually analyze the characteristics of publication, institutional cooperation relationship, author cooperation network, co-citation, and keywords. ResultA total of 264 pieces of Chinese literature and 266 pieces of English literature were included, and the overall number of research publications showed an increasing trend year by year. The cooperation relationship between the issuing institutions showed obvious regional characteristics, with the closest cooperation relationship between the universities of TCM and their affiliated hospitals, as well as secondary units subordinate to scientific research institutions. The number of research teams and team members publishing papers in English was higher, and cooperation between different teams was more frequent. Groundbreaking and/or referential studies were widely cited and referred to. The highly cited literature was mainly published in complementary and alternative medicine journals and pharmaceutical journals. Research hotspots mainly focused on clinical prediction models of TCM, quantitative models of TCM, and specific modeling methods. The application of artificial intelligence technologies such as machine learning and deep learning in the field of TCM will be the most cutting-edge research direction in the future. ConclusionThe field of TCM is paying more and more attention to the studies on prediction models, while the research cooperation mode involving multiple organizations and teams has increasingly become the mainstream. With the continuous development of multi-disciplinary integration, studies on prediction models are closely related to the development and rise of innovative techniques and methods, and any breakthrough in theory or application will induce and guide a new round of research upsurge. Systematic reviews of topic-specific prediction models should be carried out in the future to provide evidence-based evidence.

ObjectiveThis study performed a scoping review to comprehensively analyze and report the information on the instructions of Chinese patent medicines and clinical research evidence for the treatment of respiratory diseases in children. MethodChinese patent medicines against respiratory diseases in children were obtained by searching the three major drug catalogues. The Chinese and English databases were searched for relevant literature,followed by data statistics and visualized analysis. ResultAfter screening and analysis,52 Chinese patent medicines were included,involving nine dosage forms. The main drugs were Scutellariae Radix,Armeniacae Semen Amarum,Forsythiae Fructus,etc. The main functions included clearing heat and releasing exterior syndrome,and relieving cough and dissipating phlegm. The indications mainly included common cold with wind-heat syndrome and cough in children. Adverse drug reactions and contraindications were only specified in 19.23% (10/52) of Chinese patent medicines,and the rest only displayed "unclear". A total of 279 articles were included,including 277 articles from Chinese Core Periodicals and two articles from SCIE. In terms of research type,those articles included 253 randomized controlled trials (RCTs,with six dosage form/dose comparisons involved),11 retrospective analyses based on Hospital Information System (HIS) data,one case series,13 systematic reviews/Meta-analyses (with two network Meta-analyses involved),and one economic evaluation article. Among them,72.76% (203/279) of the articles were published in the Core Journals of Chinese Science and Technology. Only 33 Chinese patent medicines were involved,and Xiaoer Feire Kechuan Oral Liquid was the top 1 under investigation,accounting for 15.71% (44/280). The indicated diseases were mainly infantile pneumonia,bronchitis,respiratory tract infection,cough,asthma,and other western medicine diseases. Xiaoer Chiqiao Qingre Granules and Xiaoer Dingchuan Oral Liquid were used off-label. The sample size was concentrated in 51-150 cases,accounting for 67.17% (178/265). The interventions in the experimental group were mainly Chinese patent medicine + western medicine + basic treatment or Chinese patent medicine + western medicine. The main outcomes were the effective rate and the improvement of clinical symptoms. The adverse reactions were mainly gastrointestinal reactions,drug-induced skin symptoms,etc.,and two studies have shown that drug doses were associated with adverse reactions. ConclusionIn research years,the research on Chinese patent medicines in the treatment of respiratory diseases in children has advanced rapidly. However,there are still some problems that need to be resolved in the future,such as incomplete information on drug content in the instruction,concentrated drugs to be studied,limited indications,failure to highlight the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndromes,unstandardized research design,and an incomplete reflection of Chinese patent medicine.

Health research priority setting, based on the existing disease burden or healthcare needs, screens out specific areas or topics with relatively high research priority by scientific and systematic methods, and optimizes the allocation of health resources by influencing healthcare decision-making, so as to alleviate the imbalance between regional or global health and development. Many developed countries have carried out related research and practical work on different scales, and the World Health Organization (WHO) attaches great importance to the transformation and application of relevant achievements in developing countries. As the largest developing country in the world, China's research in this field started relatively late, and only a small number of scholars have carried out part of the localization methodology research and practice according to the specific national conditions. However, health research priority setting has not yet attracted the attention of large-scale research institutions or government organizations in China. Although the priority setting is rarely mentioned in the research on traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), the research and decision-making on the diseases responding specifically to TCM can also be regarded as the practical work of exploring the priority of TCM. Policymakers have a sense of priority support in the "priority of TCM research", but the decisions from the top design are mainly based on the consensus reached by high-level think tanks. There is a lack of extensive research, and moreover, the data of multiple stakeholders are not included. Therefore, it is urgent to introduce appropriate priority setting methods to solve the problem of transparency and scientificity in the decision-making process. Given the perspective of the specific implementation, the present study introduced three international priority setting methods, i.e., the James Lind Alliance and Priority Setting Partnerships(JLAPSP,)the Child Health and Nutrition Research Initiative(CHNRI), and the Council on Health Research and Development (COHRED), and presented relevant recommendations on how to apply them in the research of TCM, which is expected to provide references for the local research.
