Intraoperative cell salvage (IOCS) has been widely applied as an important blood conservation measure in surgical operations. However, there is currently a lack of clinical practice guidelines for the implementation of IOCS in patients with malignant tumors. This report aims to provide clinicians with recommendations on the use of IOCS in patients with malignant tumors based on the review and assessment of the existed evidence. Data were derived from databases such as PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library and Wanfang. The guideline development team formulated recommendations based on the quality of evidence, balance of benefits and harms, patient preferences, and health economic assessments. This study constructed seven major clinical questions. The main conclusions of this guideline are as follows: 1) Compared with no perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion (NPABT), perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion (PABT) leads to a more unfavorable prognosis in cancer patients (Recommended); 2) Compared with the transfusion of allogeneic blood or no transfusion, IOCS does not lead to a more unfavorable prognosis in cancer patients (Recommended); 3) The implementation of IOCS in cancer patients is economically feasible (Recommended); 4) Leukocyte depletion filters (LDF) should be used when implementing IOCS in cancer patients (Strongly Recommended); 5) Irradiation treatment of autologous blood to be reinfused can be used when implementing IOCS in cancer patients (Recommended); 6) A careful assessment of the condition of cancer patients (meeting indications and excluding contraindications) should be conducted before implementing IOCS (Strongly Recommended); 7) Informed consent from cancer patients should be obtained when implementing IOCS, with a thorough pre-assessment of the patient's condition and the likelihood of blood loss, adherence to standardized internally audited management procedures, meeting corresponding conditions, and obtaining corresponding qualifications (Recommended). In brief, current evidence indicates that IOCS can be implemented for some malignant tumor patients who need allogeneic blood transfusion after physician full evaluation, and LDF or irradiation should be used during the implementation process.

OBJECTIVE To establish the HPLC fingerprint of Xintong granules and the quantitative analysis of multi- components by single-marker method （QAMS） to determine the contents of 7 components， so as to provide a scientific basis for their quality control. METHODS HPLC method was used to establish the fingerprints for 10 batches of Xintong granules （No. S1- S10）， and similarity evaluation， cluster analysis （CA） and partial least squares-discriminant analysis （PLS-DA） were performed. At the same time， the contents of seven components， including puerarin， daidzin， calycosin-7-O- β -D-glucoside， stilbene glycoside， naringin， icariin and tanshinone ⅡA， were determined by QAMS method， and were compared with the results of external standard method. RESULTS A total of 18 common peaks were marked and 7 peaks were identified in the HPLC fingerprints for 10 batches of Xintong granules， namely puerarin （peak 4）， daidzin （peak 7）， calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside （peak 9）， stilbene glycoside （peak 10）， naringin （peak 12）， icariin （peak 17）， and tanshinone ⅡA （peak 18）； the similarities among them were more than 0.990， and CA and PLS-DA results showed that S4-S5，S8-S10，S1-S3 and S6-S7 were clustered into three categories， respectively. Using naringin as the internal standard， the contents of puerarin， daidzin， calycosin-7-O-β-D-glucoside， stilbene glycoside， icariin and tanshinone ⅡA were determined to be 7.868 1-10.181 2， 1.709 2-2.374 1， 0.285 2-0.326 3， 1.024 1- 1.523 9， 0.140 2-0.290 4， and 0.077 1-0.219 4 mg/g， respectively， by the QAMS. These results showed no significant differences compared to those obtained by the external standard method. CONCLUSIONS Established HPLC fingerprint and QAMS method are convenient， stable and accurate， which can provide a basis for the quality evaluation of Xintong granules.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics of dengue fever in Shenzhen City in 2024, so as to provide insights into formulation of the preventive and control measures for dengue fever. Methods The epidemiological data of dengue cases reported in Shenzhen City in 2024 were extracted from the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System and field epidemiological survey data of dengue fever in Shenzhen City, and the temporal, regional and population distributions of dengue fever cases, source of acquire dengue virus infections, disease diagnosis and treatment and outbreaks were analyzed. The dengue virus nucleic acid was tested and the serotypes of dengue virus were characterized using real-time quantitative reverse transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) assay, and the dengue virus gene was sequenced using next-generation sequencing (NGS). In addition, the surveillance on the density of Aedes albopictus was performed using Breteau index (BI) and mosquito oviposition index (MOI). Results A total of 1 735 dengue fever cases were reported in Shenzhen City in 2024, including 952 local cases and 783 imported cases. Most imported dengue fever cases acquired infections from eight cities of Foshan, Guangzhou, Zhongshan, Jiangmen, Dongguan, Zhaoqing, Huizhou, and Zhuhai in the Pearl River Delta region (664 cases, 84.8% of total imported cases) into Baoan, Longgang, and Nanshan districts. The epidemic exhibited an early onset and rapid progression, peaking during the period between September and November (1 632 cases, 94.1% of total cases), and dengue fever cases were distributed across 73 subdistricts in 10 districts, with most cases reported in densely populated central and western regions. The dengue fever cases had a male-to-female ratio of 1.9∶1.0, and a median age of 37 (21) years, with a higher median age among local cases than among imported cases [40 (20) years vs. 33(15) years; Z = -10.30, P < 0.05]. Housework, unemployment, workers, and business service were predominant occupations (1 405 cases, 81.0% of total cases), and there was a significant difference in the constituent ratio of occupations between local and imported cases (χ² = 92.30, P < 0.05). Among the 1 735 dengue fever cases, the median duration from onset to definitive diagnosis was 3.3 (2.9) days, and 1 686 cases (97.2%) were identified in healthcare facilities, with a low rate of hospitalization and isolation seen in 1 701 inpatients with available epidemiological data (485 cases, 28.5% of total inpatients). A total of 29 outbreaks of dengue fever occurred in Shenzhen City across 2024, which primarily in construction sites (27 outbreaks, 93.1% of total). Dengue virus type I was the dominant serotype causing dengue fever in Shenzhen City in 2024. Sequencing showed that the genomes of dengue virus from multiple dengue fever cases in Shenzhen City shared a high sequence homology with those from cities neighboring Shenzhen City, and there might be intra-city transmission of dengue virus among multiple construction sites in Shenzhen City. The Aedes albopictus density was significantly higher in Shenzhen City in 2024 than in 2023, peaking from May to September. The annual MOI values ranged from 0.9 to 14.0, and the BI values ranged from 0.6 to 6.0. Conclusions The overall epidemic of dengue fever was severe in Shenzhen City in 2024, which was greatly affected by case importation from neighboring cities, construction sites-centered local transmission, and the effectives of routine mosquito vector control was not satisfactory. Integrated dengue fever control measures should be implemented, focusing on regional joint prevention and control mechanisms, capacity building for mosquito vector control, addressing challenges in epidemic containment at construction sites, and strengthening case detection and management systems.

Background::Risk assessment and treatment stratification for three-vessel coronary disease (TVD) remain challenging. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic value of left atrial volume index (LAVI) with the Synergy Between Percutaneous Coronary Intervention with Taxus and Cardiac Surgery (SYNTAX) score II, and its association with the long-term prognosis after three strategies (percutaneous coronary intervention [PCI], coronary artery bypass grafting [CABG], and medical therapy [MT]) in patients with TVD.Methods::This study was a post hoc analysis of a large, prospective cohort of patients with TVD in China, that aimed to determine the long-term outcomes after PCI, CABG, or optimal MT alone. A total of 8943 patients with TVD were consecutively enrolled between 2004 and 2011 at Fuwai Hospital. A total of 7818 patients with available baseline LAVI data were included in the study. Baseline, procedural, and follow-up data were collected. The primary endpoint was major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (MACCE), which was a composite of all-cause death, myocardial infarction (MI), and stroke. Secondary endpoints included all-cause death, cardiac death, MI, revascularization, and stroke. Long-term outcomes were evaluated among LAVI quartile groups. Results::During a median follow-up of 6.6 years, a higher LAVI was strongly associated with increased risk of MACCE (Q3: hazard ratio [HR] 1.20, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.06-1.37, P = 0.005; Q4: HR 1.85, 95%CI 1.64-2.09, P <0.001), all-cause death (Q3: HR 1.41, 95% CI 1.17-1.69, P <0.001; Q4: HR 2.54, 95%CI 2.16-3.00, P <0.001), and cardiac death (Q3: HR 1.81, 95% CI 1.39-2.37, P <0.001; Q4: HR 3.47, 95%CI 2.71-4.43, P <0.001). Moreover, LAVI significantly improved discrimination and reclassification of the SYNTAX score II. Notably, there was a significant interaction between LAVI quartiles and treatment strategies for MACCE. CABG was associated with lower risk of MACCE than MT alone, regardless of LAVI quartiles. Among patients in the fourth quartile, PCI was associated with significantly increased risk of cardiac death compared with CABG (HR: 5.25, 95% CI: 1.97-14.03, P = 0.001). Conclusions::LAVI is a potential index for risk stratification and therapeutic decision-making in patients with three-vessel coronary disease. CABG is associated with improved long-term outcomes compared with MT alone, regardless of LAVI quartiles. When LAVI is severely elevated, PCI is associated with higher risk of cardiac death than CABG.

Aim To evaluate the effect of Pien Tze Huang(PTH)on influenza virus susceptibility in re-straint stress-induced H1N1 influenza susceptibility model in mice with emotional disorders and internal heat,guided by the theory of emotional pathogenesis.Methods Mice were infected with H1N1 influenza vi-rus following 18 h of restraint stress.The signs and weight changes of mice were recorded,and the morbid-ity of mice were analyzed.On the fourth day post viral infection,the lung tissue was collected.The pathologi-cal changes and inflammatory factors in lungs were de-tected by HE staining.The expression of NP was as-sessed by immunohistochemistry and Western blot.The level of lipid peroxidation end products was detected u-sing a commercial kit and western blot.Redox phos-pholipidomics was analyzed in lung tissue by HPLC-MS/MS.Results PTH significantly reduced the mor-tality of influenza-susceptible mice induced by emotion-al stress,inhibited the expression of NP and the re-lease of inflammatory factors,improved inflammation in lung tissue,and alleviated the accumulation of lipid peroxidation end products.Phospholipid oxidation a-nalysis revealed the elevated levels of oxidized phos-pholipid choline and phosphatidylethanolamine in lung tissue of influenza-susceptible mice,which were signif-icantly reduced by PTH administration.Conclusions PTH exhibits promising efficacy in ameliorating influ-enza virus susceptibility induced by internal heat,and its mechanism of action may be related to the regulation of phospholipid peroxidation.

Objective To explore the difference in the effectiveness between proximal femoral nail anti-rotation(PFNA)and proximal femoral locking compression plate(PFLCP)of intertrochanteric fracture in the elderly patients combined with knee osteoarthritis.Methods The clinical data of 65 intertrochanteric femoral fractures combined with knee osteoarthritis be-tween June 2015 and February 2021 were retrospectively analyze.They were divided into two groups according to the different surgical methods.PFNA group was composed of 36 patients,12 males and 24 females,aged from 61to 88 years old with an av-erage of(77.0±6.4)years old.There were 17 cases of left injury and 19 cases of right injury.According to modified Evans clas-sification,there were 3 cases of type Ⅱ,19 cases of type Ⅲ,10 cases of type Ⅳ,and 4 cases of type Ⅴ.PFLCP group was com-posed of 29 patients,11 males and 18 females,aged from 60 to 92 years old with an average of(78.8±6.5)years old.There were 14 cases of left injury and 15 cases of right injury.According to modified Evans classification,there were 2 cases of typeⅡ,18 cases of type Ⅲ,7 cases of type Ⅳ,and 2 cases of type Ⅴ.Comparison of operation time,intraoperation blood loss,postoperative bed time,incidence of postoperative complications,Harris score at 6 months and 1 year postoperation.Results All 65 patients were followed up ranging from 12 to 24 months with an average of(16.9±3.6)months.In the PFNA and PFLCP groups,the operation time was respectively(57.6±6.8)min and(77.4±6.5)min,the intraoperative blood loss was(128.3±50.3)ml and(156.3±23.9)ml,postoperative bed time was(4.0±2.5)days and(8.1±2.0)days,Harris score at 6 months post-operative was(45.3±8.6)points and(36.3±7.0)points.There were significant differences between two groups(P＜0.05).Inci-dence of postoperative complications was 19.4％(7/36)and 34.5％(10/29),Harris score at 1 year postoperative was(60.8±6.7)points and(59.0±8.1)points.There was no significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion Compared with PFLCP,PFNA treatment of elderly patients with knee osteoarthritis between the femoral intertrochanteric fractures shorter surgical time,less intraoperative blood loss,bed rest after surgery,short-term hip function recovery better,when the affected knee joint can tolerate traction,can be used as a priority.

Objective To focus on the imaging features of liposclerosing myxofibrous tumor(LSMFT)and diagnostic chal-lenges to enhance clinical recognition and differential diagnosis accuracy.Methods Retrospective analysis was conducted on the imaging and pathological data from 21 cases diagnosed with LSMFT between January 2014 and November 2022,including 14 males and 7 females(aged from 21 to 73 years;the course of disease ranged from 4 to 48 months).Patient demographics,clinical presentations,and imaging modalities including X-ray,CT,and MRI were reviewed.Pathological findings were corre-lated with imaging features to delineate diagnostic criteria and identify causes of misdiagnosis.Results All 21 patients repre-sented primary lesions,located in 14 bilateral femurs[9 on the right and 5 on the left;12 proximal femurs(intertrochanteric and peripheral)and 2 distal femurs],2 proximal tibia,2 proximal humerus,1 proximal radius,and 1 ilium and 1 calcaneus.On X-ray and CT,all lesions showed cartographical or quasi-circular osteolytic destruction with distinct and sclerotic margins,continuous bone cortex,absence of periosteal reaction and surrounding soft tissue mass.Calcification,bone ridge and varying degrees of fat components were observed in 16 lesions,displaying mixed density;5 lesions showed ground-glass density with minimal bone ridge.On MRI,the signal intensity of the lesion was heterogeneous.T1-weighted imaging showed iso-to slightly high signal intensity,while T2-weighted imaging demonstrated unevenly high signal intensity.Fat-suppressed sequences de-picted significantly elevated signal intensity within lesions,with post-contrast enhancement showing uneven patterns.5 Cases were initially misdiagnosed as fibrous dysplasia.Conclusion LSMFT is an uncommon benign bone tumor,typically localized in the proximal femur but occasionally found in other skeletal sites.Understanding its distinct imaging characteristics is crucial for accurate diagnosis.Typical cases exhibit identifiable imaging patterns,whereas atypical presentations may lead to misdiagnosis as fibrous dysplasia.
