Objective: To evaluate the clinical value of extended red blood cell (RBC) antigen matching in transfusion for patients with autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA). Methods: Clinical transfusion procedures involving extended RBC antigen matching for cross-compatibility testing were analyzed in two AIHA cases. Results: Following the implementation of extended RBC antigen matching (four-tier matching), the major cross-match reaction results shifted from strongly positive to weakly positive. The hemoglobin (Hb) levels increased significantly after transfusion, with no observed hemolytic transfusion reactions (HTRs). Conclusion: Extended RBC antigen matching may provide a safe and effective transfusion strategy for AIHA patients.

Objective:This meta-analysis compares the postoperative outcomes of the double-flap technique (DFT) versus esophagogastrostomy (EG), jejunal interposition (JI), double-tract reconstruction (DTR), and gastric tube anastomosis (GTA) following proximal gastrectomy for gastric cancer.Methods:Prospective and retrospective studies published from database inception until June 2025 were retrieved from PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, CNKI, and Wanfang databases. Studies reporting at least one predefined outcome with extractable data were included. Outcomes of interest consisted of incidence of gastroesophageal reflux, overall postoperative complications, anastomotic leakage, anastomotic stenosis, and digestive reconstruction time. Two investigators independently performed literature screening, data extraction, and quality assessment. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) were evaluated with the Cochrane ROB 2.0 tool, retrospective cohort studies with the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS), and single-arm studies with the JBI critical appraisal tool. Dichotomous outcomes were pooled using risk ratios (RRs), and continuous variables were summarized with standardized mean differences (SMDs), using fixed- or random-effects models based on I2 statistics. Publication bias was assessed via funnel plots and Egger's test.Results:A total of 55 studies published between 2007 and 2025 were included, comprising 5 RCTs and 50 retrospective studies. Among 4,380 patients, 732 underwent EG, 454 GTA, 1,480 DTR, 468 JI, and 1,246 DFT. Quality assessment indicated that all except six retrospective cohort studies (rated as moderate quality) were of high quality or had low risk of bias. Among the five reconstruction methods, DFT showed the lowest incidence of gastroesophageal reflux (6.6%, 82/1,246) and overall postoperative complications (11.6%, 144/1,246). JI had the lowest rate of anastomotic leakage (1.3%, 6/468), followed by DFT (1.4%, 18/1,246), and DTR had the lowest rate of anastomotic stenosis (2.4%, 36/1,480), followed by DFT (7.5%, 94/1,246). DFT required the longest operative time for reconstruction ([141.2 ± 597.6] minutes), and DTR required the shortest ([50.1 ± 39.0] minutes). Compared to EG, DFT was associated with a significantly lower risk of gastroesophageal reflux (RR=0.13 ,95%CI: 0.03-0.55, P = 0.01), and no significant differences were observed in overall complications (RR=0.98, 95%CI: 0.55-1.74, P = 0.93), anastomotic leakage (RR = 0.81, 95%CI: 0.04-18.43, P = 0.90), or anastomotic stenosis (RR = 0.75, 95%CI: 0.09-6.39, P = 0.79). Compared to JI, DFT showed no significant differences in gastroesophageal reflux (RR = 0.36, 95%CI: 0.10-1.25, P=0.11), overall complications (RR=2.06, 95%CI: 0.30-14.11, P=0.46), anastomotic leakage (RR=2.05, 95%CI: 0.26-16.18, P=0.49), or anastomotic stenosis (RR=0.83, 95%CI: 0.10-7.17, P=0.87). Similarly, compared to DTR, DFT had a lower risk of overall complications (RR=0.70, 95%CI: 0.50-0.98, P=0.04) but a longer reconstruction time (SMD: 2.55, 95%CI: 0.31-4.79, P=0.03). No significant differences were found in gastroesophageal reflux (RR = 0.68, 95%CI: 0.35-1.30, P=0.24), anastomotic leakage (RR=0.59, 95%CI: 0.16-2.17, P=0.43), or anastomotic stenosis (RR=2.44 , 95%CI: 0.44-13.64, P=0.31). Compared to GTA, DFT was associated with a significantly lower risk of gastroesophageal reflux (RR = 0.53, 95%CI: 0.33-0.88, P=0.01), but again there were no significant differences in overall complications (RR = 0.69, 95%CI: 0.41-1.16, P=0.16), anastomotic leakage (RR = 0.25, 95%CI: 0.03-2.14, P=0.21), or anastomotic stenosis (RR=0.65, 95%CI: 0.24-1.76, P=0.40). No significant publication bias was detected in the analysis (Egger's test P>0.05). Conclusions:Among the five common anastomotic methods after proximal gastrectomy, DFT demonstrates superior anti-reflux efficacy, outperforming EG and GTA in particular in preventing gastroesophageal reflux. DFT also exhibits a lower overall complication risk compared with DTR but maintains anastomotic safety comparable with that of the other techniques.

Objective To investigate the effect of miR-129-1-3p on the osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(hBMSCs)and its potential mechanism.Methods Negative control group,the miR-129-1-3p mimic group,the miR-129-1-3p inhibitor group and the corresponding negative control were constructed and transfected into hBMSCs.The formation of calcium-mineralized nodules was observed by alkaline phosphatase staining and alizarin red S staining.The expression levels of miR-129-1-3p and osteogenic differentiation markers were detected by qRT-PCR.Western blot detected the protein expressions of bone mor-phogenetic protein 2(BMP2),SMAD1 and p-SMAD1.Results After transfection,the expression level of miR-129-1-3p in mimic group was significantly increased(P＜0.05),the number of mineralized nodules was significantly decreased,and the expression levels ofBMP2,Runt-related transcription factor 2(RUNX2),osteocalcin(OCN)mRNA were significantly down-regulated(P＜0.05).BMP2 and p-SMAD1 protein were also significantly down-regulated(P＜0.05)compared with Mimic-NC group.The expression levels of BMP2,RUNX2,OCN mRNA were significantly up-regulated in inhibitor group(P＜0.05)compared with Inhibitor-NC group.BMP2 and p-SMAD1 protein were significantly up-regulated in inhibitor group(P＜0.05).Conclusion miR-129-1-3p can inhibit the osteo-genic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells by suppressing BMP2/SMAD1 signaling pathway.

Objective The clinical characteristics of 21 cases of nocardiosis were reviewed and antimicrobial resistance of Nocardia strains was analyzed in order to improve the accuracy of clinical diagnosis and treatment of nocardiosis.Methods Clinical data of patients diagnosed with nocardiosis in Zhoukou Central Hospital from 2019-2023 and the corresponding results of antimicrobial susceptibility testing were retrospectively analyzed to summarize the clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients.Results Overall,the 21 cases of nocardiosis included 9 males and 12 females,aged 2-91 years.Underlying disease was reported in 15 patients.Most common type of nocardiosis was pulmonary nocardiosis in 15 cases,followed by skin and soft tissue infection,pleurisy,lymphadenitis,and disseminated nocardiosis.Laboratory tests showed increased levels of WBC,neutrophils percentage,erythrocyte sedimentation rate,C-reactive protein,and procalcitonin.The 21 strains of Nocardia included 4 strains of Nocardia cyriacigeorgica,2 strains each of Nocardia brasiliensis,Nocardia abscessus,Nocardia asiatica,Nocardia otitidiscaviarum and Nocardia beijingensis,and 1 strain each of Nocardia puris,Nocardia asteroides,Nocardia farcinica,Nocardia pneumoniae,Nocardia amamiensis,and 2 strains of unclassified Nocardia.All of the Nocardia strains(100％)were susceptible to linezolid,amikacin,and trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole,followed by various levels of susceptibility to cefotaxime,moxifloxacin,imipenem and ceftriaxone,and lower susceptibility rate to cefepime,minocycline,ciprofloxacin and clarithromycin.Antimicrobial susceptibility of Nocardia strains varied with different Nocardia species.Of the 21 patients,two were referred to other hospitals,another two died,two patients received unknown treatment,and the remaining 15 patients were improved after antibiotic treatment,including sulfonamides combined with other antibiotics in 11 cases,other antibiotics in 4 cases.Conclusions Immunocompromised patients or those with underlying diseases are more susceptible to nocardiosis.The clinical features are complex and diverse.Antimicrobial susceptibility of Nocardia strains varied with different Nocardia species.Accurate identification and antimicrobial susceptibility test are essential for prescribing effective antibiotic treatment.

Objective:To analyze the clinical efficacy and safety of carglumic acid in the treatment of neonatal hyperammonemia caused by organic acidemia.Methods:A case summary was made.Six cases of neonatal hyperammonemia caused by organic acidemia treated at the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit of Henan Children′s Hospital from March to September in 2024 were included.They received comprehensive ammonia-lowering treatment in combination with oral carglumic acid dispersible tablets.The clinical data of the children were collected and analyzed retrospectively.Changes in blood ammonia levels, blood gas parameters, and complete blood count before and after treatment with carglumic acid were analyzed using the Wilcoxon test.The incidence of adverse reactions and clinical regression during the treatment with carglumic acid was observed.Results:There were 2 females and 4 males in the 6 patients included.Four children suffered from isolated methylmalonic acidemia caused by MUT gene mutations, and the other 2 had propionic acidemia.The clinical manifestations were poor breastfeeding in 6 cases, vomiting in 2 cases, poor response in 6 cases, weight loss in 6 cases, and convulsions in 3 cases.Acute metabolic decompensation abnormalities were presented in all children, such as metabolic acidosis, hyperammonemia, leukopenia and thrombocytopenia.The first dose of carglumic acid was 62-255 mg/kg, the second dose was 75-172 mg/kg.The blood ammonia level decreased from 411.7 (339.7, 623.8) μmol/L before treatment to 108.1 (35.5, 229.1) μmol/L after 48 hours of treatment, showing a statistically significant reduction ( Z=2.20, P<0.05).Three cases with a blood ammonia level higher than 400 μmol/L, it was effectively reduced after treatment with carglumic acid.Two cases did not undergo hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis.One case underwent hemodialysis but died after withdrawing the treatment.After administration of carglumic acid, metabolic acidosis was corrected in all children, and 2 patients ultimately died after discontinuing the treatment.No causal relationship was identified between adverse events and carglumic acid treatment.The examinations at discharge and during the follow-up period (2-7 months) showed that most laboratory abnormalities (including leukopenia, anemia, thrombocytopenia, hyperlactatemia, hyponatremia, hyperkalemia, elevated myocardial enzymes, and hyperbilirubinemia) returned to normal. Conclusions:Carglumic acid can effectively reduce neonatal hyperammonemia caused by organic academia, improve metabolic disorders, and reduce the need for blood purification or peritoneal dialysis, with good safety.
