Objective: To analyze the changes in homologous immunity after RhCE-matched transfusion in positive patients with RhCE blood group antibodies, and to provide precise transfusion strategies for chronic anemia patients. Methods: Patients with chronic anemia in our hospital from January 2020 to March 2024 (continuously receiving blood transfusions for more than 6 months) were enrolled, and 63 cases of unexpected antibody screening positive and identified as RhCE blood group antibodies were selected as the research subjects. The changes in unexpected antibody yield rate after ABO and RhCcDEe isotype blood transfusion were observed. Patients with MNS, Kidd, or Lewis blood group antibodies were screened for corresponding negative donors using monoclonal antibodies for extended typing transfusion based on RhCcEe typing, and the changes in unexpected antibody yield rate after transfusion were observed. Blood group genotyping was performed when serological techniques failed to resolve discrepancies or detect abnormal antigen expression. Results: After RhCcDEe-matched transfusions, RhCE antibodies disappeared in 62 patients, while 1 patient developed anti-Ce. The latter did not develop blood type isotype immunity after receiving RhccEE donor blood. Among the 62 patients, 9 developed unexpected antibodies against other systems: anti-M (4 cases), anti-Mur (2), anti-S (1), anti-Jka (1), and anti-Lea (1). No additional alloimmunization occurred after extended antigen-matched transfusions. A patient with serologically weak e phenotype was genotyped as DCe/DcE, with gene sequencing revealing an 827C>A mutation in exon 6 of the RHCE gene, forming the RHCE 01.31 allele. Conclusion: Precise transfusion strategies incorporating RhCE, MNS, Kidd, and Lewis blood group antigen typing can reduce the probability of blood group homologous immunity. RhCE complex antibodies and RhCE variants pose difficulties for clinical RhCE typing transfusion, which can be addressed through cross-matching and genetic analysis.

Ureteral stricture is a common urological condition，whose treatment mainly depends on the etiology，location，number，and length of the stricture.For complex long-segment ureteral stricture，the main surgical procedures include endourological treatment，flap pyeloplasty，ureterocalicostomy，buccal mucosal ureteroplasty，lingual mucosal ureteroplasty，bladder mucosal ureteroplasty，appendiceal ureteroplasty，bladder flap ureteroplasty，and ileal ureter substitution ureteroplasty.Although open and laparoscopic surgeries are still prevalent，robotic surgery is gaining popularity due to its minimally invasive nature and precision.Based on the latest clinical advances and diagnostic and therapeutic experience of our team，we will systematically introduce the new surgical techniques and methods for the treatment of long-segment ureteral stricture from a clinical practical perspective.In addition，we will discuss the advantages and disadvantages of different autologous tissue reconstruction techniques，as well as the choices between minimally invasive and open surgery.

Objective The purpose of this article is to summarize and review the current status of the construction of clinical research evaluation systems in domestic public hospitals,identify existing problems in the evaluation system,and propose development strategies and suggestions.Methods Retrieved relevant articles,dissertations and policies from the past five years(2018-2022),screened the titles,viewed the full texts of 52 selected papers and their references,and summarized them.Results The"five-only"indicators have long been an important indicator for evaluating clinical research in public hospitals,but in today's scientific research environment and policy environment,the"five-only"evaluation system has revealed its utilitarian draw-backs and gradually evolved into a hindrance to scientific research.It is urgent to break through the"five-only"orientation and establish a clinical research evaluation system oriented towards"transforming and applying transformation of scientific research achievements".Conclusion The evaluation system for clinical research should break the previous"five-only"evaluation model based on quantity-oriented scientific research evaluation.We can draw on the framework of the research output,influence,and environment indicators in the UK's REF Excellence Framework model,combine the American APT system and the Chinese STEM indicator dimensions,explore multi-outcome evaluation,integrate developmental indicators,and continuously improve the indica-tor system and application methods in practice to promote the development of clinical research in public hospitals.

Objective:To establish the pig model of cardiac arrest and resuscitation, and then investigate the protective role of sivelestat (SV) on the heart after resuscitation and its relation with β-catenin signaling pathway.Methods:Twenty-five healthy male white pigs were purchased. The animals were randomly divided into the Sham group ( n=6), cardiopulmonary resuscitation group (CPR, n=10), and CPR+SV group ( n=9). The experimental animal model was established by 9 min of cardiac arrest induced by the method of ventricular fibrillation and then 6 min of CPR in the CPR and CPR+SV groups. At 5 min after successful resuscitation, a dose of 10 mg/kg of SV was infused in a duration of 1h via the femoral vein with a micro-infusion pump in the CPR+SV group. Myocardial function evaluated by the values of stroke volume (SV) and global ejection fraction (GEF) was measured by PiCCO at baseline, and at 0.5, 1, 2, 4 h after resuscitation. The serum concentrations of cardiac injury biomarkers including cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and creatine kinase isoenzymes (CK-MB) were measured by ELISA using blood samples drawn from the femoral vein at baseline, and at 1, 2, 4, and 24 h after resuscitation. The animals were euthanized at 24 h after resuscitation, and then cardiac tissue samples were harvested to measure the protein expression levels of β-catenin, Cyclin D1, c-Myc, cleaved caspase-9, and cleaved caspase-3 by Western blot and the degree of cell apoptosis by TUNEL. Results:Prior to cardiac arrest, myocardial function and cardiac injury biomarkers were maintained at the same levels, and no differences were observed among the three groups (all P> 0.05). After resuscitation, myocardial dysfunction and cardiac injury were observed in the CPR and CPR+SV groups, in which the values of SV and GEF were significantly decreased and meanwhile the serum concentrations of cTnI and CKMB were significantly increased when compared with the Sham group (all P< 0.05). However, myocardial dysfunction and cardiac injury were significantly milder in the CPR+SV group, in which the value of SV at 4h post-resuscitation and the values of GEF starting 1h post-resuscitation were significantly increased, and the serum concentrations of cTnI and CKMB were significantly decreased at 4 and 24 h post-resuscitation when compared to the CPR group (all P< 0.05). Tissue measurements indicated that the change of β-catenin signaling pathway and the occurrence of cell apoptosis were observed in the heart at 24 h post-resuscitation in the CPR and CPR+SV groups, which were indicated by significant increases in the protein expression levels of β-catenin, Cyclin D1, c-Myc, cleaved caspase-9, and cleaved caspase-3, and marked elevation in the index of cell apoptosis when compared with the Sham groups (all P< 0.05). However, the expression levels of proteins mentioned above were significantly decreased in the heart at 24 h post-resuscitation and the index of cell apoptosis was significantly reduced in the CPR+SV group when compared to the CPR group (all P< 0.05). Conclusion:SV has the protective role in alleviating post-resuscitation myocardial dysfunction and cardiac injury, in which the protective mechanism is possibly related to the alleviation of cell apoptosis through the inhibition of β-catenin signaling pathway activation.

ObjectiveTo analyze the quality and status of technical service items of radiation health technical service institutions (RHTSI) in China. Methods A total of 608 and 622 RHTSIs with radiation health technical service qualifications from 31 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities in the years of 2021 and 2022 were selected as the research subjects. The data of quality monitoring of radiological health technology services, comparison of radiological health testing capabilities, and investigation of the current status of technical support institutions were collected to analyze the status of technical service items which was conducted by RHTSIs from 2021 to 2022. Results A total of 622 RHTSIs in China obtained technical service institution qualifications in 2022, an increase of 14 from 608 in 2021. While a total of 404 of 622 RHTSIs conducted radiological health technology services, a decrease of 11.4% from 456 in 2021. A total of 241 804 technical service items were conducted in 2022, an increase of 39.7% from 173 064 in 2021. The median number of technical service items by non-health system RHTSIs was higher than that of the health system RHTSIs in 2021 and 2022, (203 vs 40 items, 215 vs 55 items, all P<0.01). The number of technical service institutions and technical service items conducted in different regions from high to low were the eastern, central, and western regions in 2021. The number of technical service institutions in different regions was highest in the eastern region, followed by the central and western regions, while the number of technical service items from high to low were the eastern, western, and central regions in 2022. The number of provincial, municipal, and county-level health system RHTSIs decreased by 6.5%, 26.3%, and 27.3%, respectively, in 2022 compared with 2021. The number of technical service items conducted by provincial health system RHTSIs increased by 48.6%, while those conducted by municipal and county-level health system RHTSIs decreased by 13.8% and 21.3%, respectively. Conclusion Although the number of RHTSI conducting technical services decreases in 2022 compared with 2021, the number of technical service items conducted increases. Non-medical RHTSI undertake the majority of technical service items. Within the medical institutes, the number of technical service items conducted by provincial RHTSI is higher than that of municipal and county-level RHTSI.

Objective:To investigate the incidence of postoperative complications in Chinese patients with gastric or colorectal cancer, and to evaluate the risk factors for postoperative complications.Methods:This was a national, multicenter, prospective, registry-based, cohort study of data obtained from the database of the Prevalence of Abdominal Complications After Gastro- enterological Surgery (PACAGE) study sponsored by the China Gastrointestinal Cancer Surgical Union. The PACAGE database prospectively collected general demographic characteristics, protocols for perioperative treatment, and variables associated with postoperative complications in patients treated for gastric or colorectal cancer in 20 medical centers from December 2018 to December 2020. The patients were grouped according to the presence or absence of postoperative complications. Postoperative complications were categorized and graded in accordance with the expert consensus on postoperative complications in gastrointestinal oncology surgery and Clavien-Dindo grading criteria. The incidence of postoperative complications of different grades are presented as bar charts. Independent risk factors for occurrence of postoperative complications were identified by multifactorial unconditional logistic regression.Results:The study cohort comprised 3926 patients with gastric or colorectal cancer, 657 (16.7%) of whom had a total of 876 postoperative complications. Serious complications (Grade III and above) occurred in 4.0% of patients (156/3926). The rate of Grade V complications was 0.2% (7/3926). The cohort included 2271 patients with gastric cancer with a postoperative complication rate of 18.1% (412/2271) and serious complication rate of 4.7% (106/2271); and 1655 with colorectal cancer, with a postoperative complication rate of 14.8% (245/1655) and serious complication rate of 3.0% (50/1655). The incidences of anastomotic leakage in patients with gastric and colorectal cancer were 3.3% (74/2271) and 3.4% (56/1655), respectively. Abdominal infection was the most frequently occurring complication, accounting for 28.7% (164/572) and 39.5% (120/304) of postoperative complications in patients with gastric and colorectal cancer, respectively. The most frequently occurring grade of postoperative complication was Grade II, accounting for 65.4% (374/572) and 56.6% (172/304) of complications in patients with gastric and colorectal cancers, respectively. Multifactorial analysis identified (1) the following independent risk factors for postoperative complications in patients in the gastric cancer group: preoperative comorbidities (OR=2.54, 95%CI: 1.51-4.28, P<0.001), neoadjuvant therapy (OR=1.42, 95%CI:1.06-1.89, P=0.020), high American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) scores (ASA score 2 points:OR=1.60, 95% CI: 1.23-2.07, P<0.001, ASA score ≥3 points:OR=0.43, 95% CI: 0.25-0.73, P=0.002), operative time >180 minutes (OR=1.81, 95% CI: 1.42-2.31, P<0.001), intraoperative bleeding >50 mL (OR=1.29,95%CI: 1.01-1.63, P=0.038), and distal gastrectomy compared with total gastrectomy (OR=0.65,95%CI: 0.51-0.83, P<0.001); and (2) the following independent risk factors for postoperative complications in patients in the colorectal cancer group: female (OR=0.60, 95%CI: 0.44-0.80, P<0.001), preoperative comorbidities (OR=2.73, 95%CI: 1.25-5.99, P=0.030), neoadjuvant therapy (OR=1.83, 95%CI:1.23-2.72, P=0.008), laparoscopic surgery (OR=0.47, 95%CI: 0.30-0.72, P=0.022), and abdominoperineal resection compared with low anterior resection (OR=2.74, 95%CI: 1.71-4.41, P<0.001). Conclusion:Postoperative complications associated with various types of infection were the most frequent complications in patients with gastric or colorectal cancer. Although the risk factors for postoperative complications differed between patients with gastric cancer and those with colorectal cancer, the presence of preoperative comorbidities, administration of neoadjuvant therapy, and extent of surgical resection, were the commonest factors associated with postoperative complications in patients of both categories.

Non-neonatal tetanus is an acute, specific, toxic disease in patients over 28 days of age, characterized by continuous rigidity and paroxysmal spasms of the skeletal muscles throughout the body caused by the intrusion of Clostridium tetani through skin or mucosal membrane into the body and reproducing in anaerobic environments to produce exotoxins. The mortality rate of severe patients is close to 100% without medical intervention. Even with aggressive comprehensive treatment, the global mortality rate remains at 30%-50%, making it a potentially fatal disease. In order to standardize the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of non-neonatal tetanus, based on "Regulation for Diagnosis and Treatment of Non-neonatal Tetanus (2019 Edition)", experts have revised this regulation according to clinical practice and recent research progress in this field to guide medical institutions in the prevention and control of non-neonatal tetanus. This article interprets the key points and basis for updating the 2024 edition regulation to guide clinical implementation and application.
