Objective: To investigate the identification process of a case with anti-Fy combined with Rh blood group system antibodies and to review the transfusion strategy and epidemiological characteristics of Duffy blood group system antibodies. Methods: The antibody specificity of a patient diagnosed with liver cirrhosis, who exhibited unexpected antibodies, was determined using the microcolumn gel method, enzyme method, and elution test. A retrospective analysis was performed to assess the incidence and clinical characteristics of antibodies associated with the Duffy blood group system among a cohort of 652 003 patients treated at our hospital from 2014 to 2024. Results: The patient's serum contained anti-Fy , anti-c, and anti-E antibodies. Through the targeted recruitment of African international students, the patient successfully received four units of Fy -negative blood that matched the ABO and Rh phenotypes. Between 2014 and 2024, the incidence of Duffy blood group system antibodies was 0.005 7% (37 out of 652 003), with 9 cases (24.3%) combined with Rh antibodies. Conclusion: Patients with anti-Fy combined with Rh antibodies require Fy -negative blood with matched Rh phenotypes. Targeted recruitment based on racial antigen differences can effectively resolve rare blood type transfusion challenges.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) accounts for over 90% of oral malignancies, with more than 370 000 new cases and approximately 188 000 deaths annually worldwide. In China, there are roughly 65 000 new cases and 35 000 deaths each year, showing a significant upward trend compared with 2015 statistics. Despite continuous advancements in treatment modalities, the 5-year survival rate remains stagnant at 50%-60%, where tumor heterogeneity and therapy resistance persist as fundamental barriers to precision oncology. To address these critical challenges, this study established a standardized bioban-king protocol for OSCC patient-derived organoids (PDOs) (Patent: Method for constructing an oral squamous cell carcinoma organoid bank, ZL202311378598.3). Through groundbreaking optimization of culture media, enzymatic digestion kinetics, and stepwise cryopreservation, we achieved a biobanking success rate exceeding 95% and pioneered synchronous cultivation of matched primary tumors, lymph node metastases, and adjacent normal mucosa from individual patients, preserving spatial heterogeneity and stromal interactions. Leveraging this platform, we developed high-throughput drug screening: Quantified heterogeneity-driven differential chemoresponse using adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-based viability assays; We discovered resistance mechanisms: Identified sialylated cancer IgG (SIA-cIgG)-mediated cis-platin resistance (primary/secondary) through PTPN13 suppression, with anti-SIA-cIgG combination therapy demonstrating synergistic efficacy. Besides, we elucidated metastatic drivers: CRISPR-Cas9-edited organoids revealed WDR54 promoted metastasis via H3K4me3/H4K16ac epigenetic reprogramming, activating epithelial-mesenchymal plasticity (EMP) and inducing partial epithelial-mesenchymal transition (pEMT). This "holographic patient-mirroring" platform provided unprecedented resolution for OSCC precision therapy and had been formally incorporated into the Chinese Stomatological Association Technical Guidelines (Technical guideline for establishing patient-derived oral squamous cell carcinoma organoid banks, CHSA 2024-08). Future integration of immune-competent organoids, 3D-bioprinted vasculature, and multi-omics-AI systems will accelerate personalized oncology. These innovations will accelerate clinical translation of personalized therapeutic regimens, ultimately bridging the gap between bench research and bedside application.

OBJECTIVE:Exercise intervention is one of the main treatments for fibromyalgia,but there is no consistent conclusion on the choice of different exercise modalities.In this article,a network Meta-analysis was used to comprehensively and quantitatively evaluate the effects of different exercise modalities on fibromyalgia syndrome. METHODS:PubMed,EMbase,Scoups,The Cochrane Library,Web of Science,CNKI,WanFang Database,and China Biomedical Literature Database were searched for relevant literature,with a search timeframe from the establishment of each database to June 2023.The outcome indicators included five continuous variables,including fibromyalgia impact questionnaire-revised(FIQ)scores,visual analogue scale(VAS)scores,quality of life,quality of sleep,and depression.The Cochrane Risk of Bias Assessment Tool was used to evaluate the quality of the included literature.RevMan 5.4 software was used to perform effect sizes,subgroup analyses,and sensitivity analyses of the data.Stata 17 software was used to perform reticulation and network Meta-analysis of the data. RESULTS:A total of 13 articles with 14 randomized controlled trials were finally included.The overall methodological quality of the literature was high.The results of traditional Meta-analysis showed that,compared with the control group,exercise therapy significantly improved the FIQ score[standardized mean difference(SMD)=-0.67,95％confidence interval(CI):-0.83 to-0.50,P<0.01],VAS score(SMD=-0.72,95％CI:-0.90 to-0.54,P<0.01),quality of life(SMD=1.03,95％CI:0.45 to 1.61,P=0.000 5),sleep quality(SMD=-0.62,95％CI:-0.98 to-0.25,P=0.001),and depression(SMD=-0.63,95％CI:-1.09 to-0.18,P=0.007).Network Meta-analysis showed that the probability of optimal intervention effect of exercise modalities on FIQ scores was ranked as:mind-body exercise(86.5)>resistance exercise(70.5)>aerobic exercise(41.7);the probability of optimal intervention effect of exercise modalities on VAS scores was ranked as:resistance exercise(85.3)>mind-body exercise(74.3)>aerobic exercise(34.5). CONCLUSION:Exercise therapy significantly improves FIQ scores,VAS scores,quality of life,sleep quality,and depression in patients with fibromyalgia syndrome.Mind-body exercise and resistance exercise are the most effective exercise modalities to reduce FIQ scores and VAS scores in patients with fibromyalgia syndrome.

BACKGROUND:The gluteus medius not only abducts the hip joint,but also plays an important role in limiting the external movement of the femoral head.At present,there is a lack of research on the correlation between gluteus medius status and non-traumatic femoral head necrosis. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the relationship between the gluteus medius width ratio and the medial space ratio of the hip joint and the progression of non-traumatic femoral head necrosis,and to explore the effect of gluteus medius atrophy on the surface and necrotic zone stress of the femoral head necrosis through finite element analysis. METHODS:Retrospective analysis of unilateral non-traumatic femoral head necrosis patients admitted to Third Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine was performed.All patients were followed up for an average of more than 2 years.They were divided into a collapsed group and a non-collapsed group based on whether there was collapse of the femoral head during the follow-up.Medial space ratio,gluteus medius width ratio,Sharp angle,gluteus medius length ratio,and gluteus medius activation angle were measured and calculated.The differences in these indicators were compared between the two groups.At the first visit and follow-up at 3,6,12,and 24 months,the medial space ratio and gluteus medius width ratio were measured and calculated to explore the changes of these two indicators in the course of non-traumatic femoral head necrosis.In addition,using three-dimensional finite element analysis,a Japanese Investigation Committee classification C1 type femoral head necrosis model was constructed based on CT data.At the same time,based on MRI data,a model of the gluteus medius muscle was constructed and divided into a gluteus medius muscle atrophy group(gluteus medius width ratio:74%-76%)and a gluteus medius muscle normal group(gluteus medius width ratio:94%-96%).Each group constructed 10 models,with 6 degrees of freedom of the distal femur constrained to zero.600 N pressures were applied along the Z-axis to the upper surface of the sacrum.The stress distribution,maximum stress values on the surface and necrotic area of the femoral head,and the maximum displacement of the necrotic area were compared between two groups of models. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)A total of 153 patients(67 males and 86 females)with 153 hips were included in this study.(2)At the 24-hour follow-up,the medial space ratio of the collapsed group was significantly higher than that of the non-collapsed group(P<0.05).The gluteus medius width ratio of the collapsed group was significantly lower than that of the non-collapsed group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in Sharp angle,gluteus medius activation angle,and gluteus medius length ratio between the two groups(P>0.05).(3)Since the follow-up time exceeded 3 months,the gluteus medius width ratio of the collapsed group was lower than that of the non-collapsed group(P<0.05).Since the follow-up time exceeded 12 months,the medial space ratio of the collapsed group was higher than that of the non-collapsed group(P<0.05).(4)Pearson correlation analysis showed a significant positive correlation between follow-up time and medial space ratio in the collapsed group(P<0.05),and a significant negative correlation between follow-up time and gluteus medius width ratio(P<0.05).The regression coefficient of gluteus medius width ratio was larger than that of medial space ratio.(5)The group with middle gluteal muscle atrophy showed significant stress concentration on the surface of the femoral head,and the stress zone was significantly located on the outside.The maximum stress on the surface of the femoral head in the group with middle gluteal muscle atrophy was significantly greater than that in the group with normal middle gluteal muscle(P<0.05).There was significant stress concentration in the necrotic area of the middle gluteal muscle atrophy group,and the maximum stress was located at the edge of the necrotic area.The maximum stress and maximum displacement in the necrotic area of the middle gluteal muscle atrophy group were significantly greater than those of the normal group(P<0.05).(6)It is indicated that gluteus medius width ratio is an effective indicator for evaluating changes in gluteal muscle atrophy.In the progression of non-traumatic femoral head necrosis,atrophy of the gluteus medius muscle first occurs,followed by widening of the medial hip joint space.The mechanical mechanism may be that the atrophy of the gluteus medius muscle affects the stability of the hip joint,leading to external displacement of the femoral head,and increasing stress and displacement on the surface and necrotic area of the femoral head.

Objective To investigate the serological changes of blood type and whether hemolytic reactions occurred in a patient with ABw subtype after type A therapeutic plasma exchange(TPE)retrospectively.Methods The ABO blood group identification and genotyping was carried out by microcolumn gel method,microcolumn glass bead method,saline tube method and absorption-elution test,and the laboratory results before and after TPE were analyzed.Results The patient un-derwent 2 000 mL type A TPE in other hospitals and was transferred to our hospital.On the second day of hospitalization,the test showed consistency between forward and reverse blood typing.On the third day,the detection showed that Bc was±～1+,and discrepancy was found between forward and reverse typing.The presence of B antigen was confirmed through tube method and human anti-B absorption-elution test,and was identified as ABw03 by molecular biological method.After type A TPE,Hb and Plt both temporarily decreased,creatinine slightly increased,ALT and AST continued to decrease,while TBIL,DBIL and IBIL showed a temporary decrease followed by an increase,indicating a slight hemolytic reaction.Conclu-sion Infusion of large volume of plasma may cause hemolytic reactions when ABO subtype patients contain weak A or B an-tigens.The blood type should be strictly identified according to the ABO blood type forward and reverse typing standards.Ad-ditional laboratory tests combined with molecular biology techniques are required for weak agglutination,which can reduce the missed detection of ABO subtypes and reduce the occurrence of transfusion reactions.

Objective To identify antibody specificity in an elderly patient with hydronephrosis accompanied by ureter-al stones and shock who had multiple antibodies.Methods Microcolumn gel method was used to screen unexpected anti-bodies of red blood cells and identify antibodies.Enzyme method and antibody absorption method were used to help judge the specificity of antibodies in patients.The ABO blood type,Rh blood type and MNS blood type of patient were determined by saline tube method.Results The patient′s blood types were O,CCDee,NNss,and a combination of anti-E,anti-c,anti-M and anti-S antibodies was detected.Conclusion Repeated blood transfusion may lead to the presence of one or more un-expected antibodies in patients.Patients with multiple or high-frequency antibodies may experience difficulties in identifica-tion and delayed blood use.

Background::Understanding willingness to undergo pulmonary function tests (PFTs) and the factors associated with poor uptake of PFTs is crucial for improving early detection and treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This study aimed to understand willingness to undergo PFTs among high-risk populations and identify any barriers that may contribute to low uptake of PFTs.Methods::We collected data from participants in the "Happy Breathing Program" in China. Participants who did not follow physicians’ recommendations to undergo PFTs were invited to complete a survey regarding their willingness to undergo PFTs and their reasons for not undergoing PFTs. We estimated the proportion of participants who were willing to undergo PFTs and examined the various reasons for participants to not undergo PFTs. We conducted univariable and multivariable logistic regressions to analyze the impact of individual-level factors on willingness to undergo PFTs.Results::A total of 8475 participants who had completed the survey on willingness to undergo PFTs were included in this study. Out of these participants, 7660 (90.4%) were willing to undergo PFTs. Among those who were willing to undergo PFTs but actually did not, the main reasons for not doing so were geographical inaccessibility ( n = 3304, 43.1%) and a lack of trust in primary healthcare institutions ( n = 2809, 36.7%). Among the 815 participants who were unwilling to undergo PFTs, over half ( n = 447, 54.8%) believed that they did not have health problems and would only consider PFTs when they felt unwell. In the multivariable regression, individuals who were ≤54 years old, residing in rural townships, with a secondary educational level, with medical reimbursement, still working, with occupational exposure to dust, and aware of the abbreviation "COPD" were more willing to undergo PFTs. Conclusions::Willingness to undergo PFTs was high among high-risk populations. Policymakers may consider implementing strategies such as providing financial incentives, promoting education, and establishing community-based programs to enhance the utilization of PFTs.

Tumor immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) present a dual nature, offering therapeutic benefits alongside possible toxic side effects. Despite their significant clinical advantages, immune-related adverse events (irAEs) are major concern. In particular, the multi-organ irAEs (MO-irAEs) caused by ICIs present complex clinical manifestations, affecting a high proportion of critically ill patients. There is a lack of clinical awareness and attention towards these adverse events, making management relatively difficult, thus potentially threatening the life of patients. Reasonable application of hormones and immune modulators, along with symptomatic and supportive treatment, as well as careful monitoring and long-term follow-up are crucial measures to control MO-irAEs. Clinical characteristics, peripheral blood indicators, and genetic predisposition can serve as predictive markers for MO-irAEs occurrence and progression to some extent. A comprehensive understanding of clinical features, intervention measures, prognosis, potential molecular mechanisms and predictive factors of MO-irAEs can help to effectively control MO-irAEs, ultimately improving patient outcomes.

Purpose Based on European lumbar spine phantom,to investigate the effect of different noise index(NI)combined with adaptive statistical interactive reconstruction-veo(ASiR-V)weights on the measurement of lumbar spine bone density,and to explore the optimal combination of the two parameters.Materials and Methods Using GE Revolution CT spectral imaging scanning,54 groups of scanning parameters with NI values of 4-20(interval 2)combined with ASiR-V weights of 0-100%(interval 20%)were selected for spectral scanning of European lumbar spine phantom.Regions of interest were placed in the middle of L1,L2 and L3,respectively.hydroxyapatite(HAP)-H2O based substances were selected to measure the HAP content of each vertebral body.The differences between the measured bone density value and the true value under different NI combined with different ASiR-V were compared to evaluate its accuracy.Results There were statistically significant differences in HAP measurements of L1,L2 and L3 vertebra in 54 groups of scanning conditions(all P<0.001).When NI=14,ASiR-V80%;NI=16,ASiR-V100%;NI=18,ASiR-V60%;NI=18,ASiR-V80%;NI=20,ASiR-V60%;NI=20,ASiR-V80%;NI=20,ASiR-V100%,there was no statistically significant difference between HAP measured value and true body model value(P>0.05).Conclusion With NI=18,ASiR-V60%,spectral CT can accurately measure lumbar spine bone density and significantly reduce the radiation dose.In clinical application,bone density can be measured by low dose scanning by increasing the weight of NI and ASiR-V.

This article reported two cases of axillary artery thrombosis in extremely low/very low birth weight infants following the placement of a local arterial catheter, who hospitalized in Shengjing Hospital of China Medical Universityin in April 2023 and August 2022, respectively. Case 1: Before surgery for necrotizing enterocolitis, an arterial catheter was placed in the left axilla of the infant. On the same day, the infant developed cyanosis of the left upper limb and weakened radial artery pulse. Ultrasound examination confirmed the presence of left axillary artery thrombosis. Despite subcutaneous injection of low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) and plasma infusion, there was no improvement in blood circulation. The infant also exhibited reduced movement in the left upper limb and loss of radial artery pulse. Thrombolytic therapy with recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator was administered. Six hours after the treatment, the radial artery pulse became palpable. Thrombolysis was then terminated, and anticoagulation with LMWH was supplied for two weeks. At one year and eight months of age, the infant had a weaker left-hand grip strength compared to the right, but the overall functionality was largely preserved. Case 2: The infant developed late-onset sepsis at 17 days old and had an arterial catheter placed in the axilla. Pale left upper limb was observed in the following day, and the brachial and radial artery pulses were absent. Vascular ultrasound indicated the presence of left axillary artery thrombosis. Anticoagulation therapy with subcutaneous injection of LMWH was provided, along with thrombolysis using urokinase. On the sixth day after thrombolysis, an ultrasound examination showed no thrombus-like echoes. At one year and eight months of age, the development and movement of the affected upper limb became normal.
