Blood transfusion is an important life-support measure in modern medicine. As clinical demand for transfusion continues to rise, blood supply remains under persistent strain, making the efficient utilization of this precious medical resource a critical component of blood management. Accurate prediction of transfusion needs is of great significance for optimizing blood resource allocation and conserving blood products. Traditional transfusion decision-making relies on clinical experience and simplified scoring systems, which are insufficient to meet the demands of precision medicine. Machine learning (ML) technology can integrate multidimensional data—including demographic characteristics, laboratory indicators, surgical information, and dynamic physiological waveforms—to construct high-performance predictive models, offering a new approach to transfusion prediction. This article systematically reviews the application progress of ML in transfusion prediction across clinical scenarios such as trauma, the perioperative period, and obstetrics. In trauma, ML has been applied to early massive transfusion prediction, prehospital transfusion decision-making, and precise prediction in pediatric trauma. In the perioperative field, applications span specialties including traumatic brain injury, orthopedic surgery, cardiovascular and major vascular surgery, and hepatic surgery. In obstetrics, models can effectively predict postpartum hemorrhage and transfusion requirements associated with cesarean section. Studies have shown that algorithms such as random forest, gradient boosting machines, and deep neural networks achieve area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) values of 0.83-0.98 in massive transfusion prediction, 0.75-0.97 in perioperative scenarios, and 0.80-0.89 in obstetric transfusion prediction—significantly outperforming traditional scoring tools. However, current studies are generally limited by single-center retrospective designs, insufficient external validation, and inadequate reporting standards; limited model interpretability and challenges in clinical integration further constrain practical translation. Future research should focus on constructing multicenter data cohorts, integrating multimodal data, conducting prospective implementation studies, and deeply embedding models within electronic health record systems, thereby advancing the application of ML to optimize clinical transfusion decision-making.

Objective To assess the stability of the molluscicidal activity of the fermentation broth supernatant of Bacillus indicus F19, so as to provide insights into development of novel molluscicides derived from this isolate. Methods Healthy Oncomelania hupensis snails free from Schistosoma japonicum infections and acclimated in the laboratory for 7 days were selected. The fermentation broth supernatant of B. indicus F19 was prepared. For each treatment condition, four experimental groups and one control group were established, with 10 mL of the fermentation broth supernatant each group. O. hupensis snails were exposed to different pH values (3, 6, 9 and 12), temperatures (40, 60, 80 °C and 100 °C), and ultraviolet (UV) exposure durations (1, 2, 3 h and 4 h). Then, the supernatant was diluted with dechlorinated water to concentrations of 50%, 10%, and 5% (v/v), and 10 mL of each dilution solution was added to three separate tubes, with an equal volume of dechlorinated water as a blank control. Twenty O. hupensis snails were transferred to each tube, immersed for 48 h and 72 h, and collected for viability assessment using the shell-tapping method. The mortality of O. hupensis snails was calculated and compared among dilution groups and the blank control group to evaluate the molluscicidal activity of the fermentation broth supernatant of B. indicus F19. Results There was a significant difference in the mortality of O. hupensis snails immersed in 5% fermentation broth supernatants of B. indicus F19 for 48 h at various pH levels (χ² = 11.556, P < 0.05), and the mortality reduced to 13.33% (8/60) in the experimental groups at a pH value of 12, which was significantly lower than in the blank control group [33.33% (20/60)] (χ² = 6.708, P < 0.05). There was a significant difference in the mortality of O. hupensis snails immersed in 10% fermentation broth supernatants of B. indicus F19 for 72 h at various pH levels (χ² = 31.691, P < 0.001), and the mortality reduced to 71.67% (43/60) and 65.00% (39/60) in the experimental group at pH values of 9 and 12, which was significantly lower than in the blank control group [100.00% (60/60)] (χ² = 8.571 and 12.110, both P values < 0.01). The mortality of O. hupensis snails both reduced to 23.33% (14/60) following immersion in 5% fermentation broth supernatants of B. indicus F19 heated in a water bath at 80 °C and 100 °C for 48 h, which was lower than that of unheated O. hupensis snails [33.33% (20/60)] and snails heated in a water bath at 40 °C [35.00% (21/60)] and 60 °C [33.33% (20/60)], and there was no significant difference in the mortality of O. hupensis snails among groups (χ² = 3.898, P > 0.05). The mortality of O. hupensis snails was 68.33% (41/60), 66.67% (40/60), 65.00% (39/60), and 68.33% (41/60) following immersion in fermentation broth supernatants heated in a water bath at 40, 60, 80 °C and 100 °C for 72 h, which was all lower than that of snails in the control group [71.70% (43/60)]; however, there was no significant difference seen in the snail mortality among groups (χ² = 0.674, P > 0.05). The mortality of O. hupensis snails was 73.33% (44/60), 71.67% (43/60), 71.67% (43/60), and 75.00% (45/60) following 48 h immersion in 10% fermentation broth supernatants of B. indicus F19 irradiated by UV for 1, 2, 3 h and 4 h, 33.33% (20/60), 31.67% (19/60), 35.00% (21/60), and 33.33% (20/60) following 48 h immersion in 10% fermentation broth supernatants of B. indicus F19 irradiated by UV for 1, 2, 3 h and 4 h, and 71.67% (43/60) and 33.33% (20/60) following 48 h immersion in 10% fermentation broth supernatants of B. indicus F19 without UV irradiation, and no significant differences were found among groups (χ² = 0.229 and 0.150, both P values > 0.05). In addition, the mortality of O. hupensis snails was 76.67% (46/60), 71.67% (43/60), 70.00% (42/60), and 76.67% (46/60) following 72 h immersion in 5% fermentation broth supernatants of B. indicus F19 irradiated by UV for 1, 2, 3 h and 4 h, and 71.67% (43/60) in the control group, and there was no significant difference in the snail mortality among groups (χ² = 1.193, P > 0.05). Conclusion The molluscicidal action of the fermentation broth supernatants of B. indicus F19 is tolerant to high temperature and UV irradiation; however, the activity is attenuated under alkaline conditions.

The accumulation of uremic toxins such as urea nitrogen, blood creatinine, and uric acid of patients with renal failure in vivo would lead to aggravated kidney damage. In this study, coated aldehyde oxy-starch (CAO) was used as an adsorbent to investigate its in vitro adsorption performance on renal failure indexes for urea, indoxyl sulfate (INS), monomethylamine (MMA), dimethylamine (DMA), uric acid (UA), and creatinine (Cr). The effects of variables such as pH, temperature, concentration, dosage, and time on the adsorption capacity of CAO were systematically investigated, employing analytical techniques of high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography (GC). The results revealed that CAO exhibited a strong adsorption capacity for urea, INS, and MMA, alongside a moderate adsorption capacity for DMA, UA, and Cr. The adsorption kinetics and thermodynamic studies indicated that the adsorption of urea and UA by CAO were fitted in pseudo-first-order kinetics, and the adsorption isotherm aligned with the Freundlich adsorption model. The enthalpy change ΔH of urea in adsorption was in the range of 40 to 60 kJ·mol^-1, which demonstrated the presence of strong adsorption force due to the interactions of coordinating groups. The ΔH of UA was greater than 80 kJ·mol^-1, indicating the generation of chemical bonds during the adsorption. Both of them, Gibbs free energy ΔG was less than 0, within the range of -20 to 0 kJ·mol^-1, suggested that the adsorption of urea and UA by CAO occurred spontaneously as physical adsorption process. The adsorption entropy ΔS of urea and UA was > 0, which indicated an increase in entropy throughout the adsorption. The infrared spectroscopygram showed the formation of a chemical bond, specifically the imine bond, following the adsorption of urea by CAO, thereby indicating a chemical reaction during the adsorption. This study elucidates the adsorption mechanism of CAO on various indexes of renal failure, providing a scientific basis for its clinical usage.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of regional citrate anticoagulation(RCA)in continuous blood purification(CBP)treatment during the shock and infection phases of severe burns.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 64 patients who received RCA-CBP treatment at the Burns Reseaich Institute,the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from Jan-uary 2015 to January 2024.The patients were divided into the burn shock phase(burn duration<2 days,n=18)and the burn infection phase(burn duration≥2 days,n=46)according to the start time of CBP treat-ment.General datas,total body surface area burned(TBSA),abbreviated burn severity index(ABSI),hemato-crit(HCT)at the start of CBP treatment,platelet count(PLT),activated partial thromboplastin time(APTT),serum creatinine,urea nitrogen,total bilirubin,acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHEⅡ)score,sequential organ failure assessment(SOFA)score,Child-Pugh score,filter usage time for each CBP treatment,the incidence of unplanned treatment termination,blood gas analysis,and adverse e-vents were compared between the two groups.Results Compared with the burn shock phase,the levels of HCT and PLT in the burn infection phase were lower,the levels of urea nitrogen and the incidences of shock,hyperlactatemia and hypoxemia were higher,the filter usage time was longer,and the incidence of unplanned treatment termination was lower,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).The results of mult-ivariate COX regression analysis showed that the burn shock phase was a protective factor for the filter usage time(P<0.05).Among the 64 patients,citrate accumulation occurred in 2 patients(3.1%),both of which were septic shock combined with hyperlactatemia during the burn infection stage.Patients with acid-base im-balance and electrolyte disorder were corrected after adjusting the treatment.There were 5 new bleeding e-vents,all of which were caused by the primary diseases.Conclusion RCA is safe and effective for CBP treat-ment in severe burned patients and can be used as a routine anticoagulant method.

Objective:This study aimed to investigate the association between anemia and hypothyroidism during early pregnancy.Methods:We conducted a retrospective analysis of 3,165 pregnant women who registered at Qingdao Women and Children's Hospital from April 2021 to March 2022.Participants were categorized into a hypothyroidism group(n=177)and a euthyroid control group(n=2 988).Maternal demographic data,anemia-related markers(hemoglobin,Hb),and thyroid function parameters(FT3,FT4,TSH)were collected.Statistical analyses included independent t-tests,chi-square tests,Spearman correlation,and multivariate logistic regression.Results:The hypothyroidism group exhibited a significantly higher anemia incidence(10.17%vs 5.02%,P<0.05)and lower mean Hb levels(122.70±10.19 g/L vs 124.60±9.19 g/L,P<0.05)compared to controls.Spearman analysis revealed positive correlations between Hb and FT3(r=0.176)and FT4(r=0.051)(both P<0.05).Multivariate logistic regression identified anemia as an independent risk factor for hypothyroidism(OR=2.038,95%CI:1.202～3.455,P=0.008).Conclusion:Anemia in early pregnancy is associated with the risk of hypothyroidism.We recommend enhanced thyroid function screening and early intervention for anemic pregnant women to mitigate potential complications.

A pyrene-phenol-based fluorescent probe PyP which showed typical intramolecular charge transfer(ICT)and monomer-excimer activities was synthesized by using pyrene carboxaldehyde hydrazone and 4-tert-butyl-2,6-diformylphenol as the raw materials.The effects of solvents on PyP were studied,and the results showed that the color of protic polar solvents(Ethanol,N,N-dimethylformamide,methanol and H2O)were successfully identified.Based on the solvent polarity-regulated PyP monomer-excimer switching,the rapid and highly sensitive ratiometric probe,"Turn-off"and"Turn-on"multimodal probes were established for detection of trace water content in organic solvents(Dimethyl sulfoxide,N,N-dimethylformamide,ethanol and methanol),with detection limits(3σ/k)of 0.0021％,0.046％,0.062％and 0.024％.The method was successfully used to detect water content in dimethyl sulfoxide,N,N-dimethy lformamide,ethanol and methanol commercial organic solvents,with recoveries ranging from 97.2％to 108.0％.The developed method showed good accuracy and stability,and had good application prospect.

Objective: To investigate the indoor fine particulate matter (PM 2.5 ) pollution and its influencing factors in children s bedrooms using solid fuel, so as to provide evidence for effective strategy to reduce PM 2.5 pollution. Methods: From December 2019 to November 2020, 198 households (108 in the north, 90 in the south) from two pilots in the north(Jiamusi in Heilongjiang Province) and south of China (Mianyang in Sichuan Province) were selected, and status of solid fuels using were obtained through home visits, dynamic changes in PM 2.5 concentrations in children s bedrooms were monitored by using real time online instruments, and the influencing factors of PM 2.5 pollution were analyzed by using a mixed effects model. Results: During the monitoring period, the daily PM 2.5 concentrations in the northern and southern pilot were 78.33 (40.50, 154.80) and 38.54(26.20, 58.46) μg/m 3, respectively, exceeding standard rates of 44.57% and 33.22%. During the heating period, the daily PM 2.5 concentrations in the northern and southern pilot were 212.50(133.60,244.10) and 104.42(73.97, 134.90) μg/m 3, respectively, with over standard rates of 96.75% and 86.96%. The mixed effects model analysis results showed that children s bedroom PM 2.5 concentrations were associated with solid fuel usage duration, window opening time, room layout (shared entrance door between kitchen and bedroom), indoor smoking, indoor humidity, and solid fuel use in the bedroom ( β =0.19, -0.05, 1.20, 0.43, 0.02, 0.35, all P <0.05). Conclusion Solid fuel combustion significantly comtributes to PM 2.5 pollution in children s bedrooms, with more pronounced impacts observed in northern China compared to southern regions.

Psoriasis is a chronic inflammatory skin disease with a polygenic genetic background. Its etiology remains unclear， and its pathogenesis is complex and refractory， collectively posing significant challenges in its treatment and greatly affecting the physical and mental health of patients. With the advantages of multi-target and multi-pathway treatment， traditional Chinese medicine has shown unique efficacy and value in the diagnosis and treatment of psoriasis. Modern doctors have a lot of discussion on psoriasis， and most of them tend to treat the disease by solving disorders of the blood system. They think that the disease is closely related to the "heat in the blood". Combining the clinical characteristics and accompanying symptoms of psoriasis， this article traced the causes of "heat in the blood" in psoriasis and believed that multiple internal and external factors have prevented the smooth circulation of Qi. Yang Qi Fuyu （stagnation） and transformation into heat and toxicity is the source of "heat in the blood" in psoriasis. Furthermore， it was proposed that "Fuyu" is the core pathogenesis of psoriasis. The etiology of "Fuyu" is complex， such as external wind and cold pathogens， emotional injuries， internal accumulation of dampness， and deficiency of healthy Qi， all of which can disrupt the ascending and descending movement of Qi， impede the circulation of Qi and fluids， close the pores and skin texture， and subsequently lead to stagnation. Based on the above understanding， "resolving stagnation" is crucial for treating the disease. Many doctors have explored the treatment ideas of psoriasis from the perspectives of dispelling wind， warming cold， regulating Qi， eliminating dampness， tonifying deficiency， and external treatment， aiming to remove the causes， promote the circulation of Qi and fluids， and resolve stagnation and heat. Clinical studies have shown that the therapies can relieve clinical symptoms， reduce recurrence rate， and improve quality of life， which also have good safety in the treatment of psoriasis. This article discussed the treatment of psoriasis from the perspective of "Fuyu"， enriching the understanding of TCM regarding the etiology and pathogenesis of psoriasis. It is aiming to serve as an effective supplement to the "treating by solving disorders of the blood system" approach and provide a reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment of psoriasis.
