Objective:To explore the correlation between serum ferritin(SF)levels and the efficacy of platelet transfusion in patients with malignant hematological diseases.Methods:Patients with malignant hematological diseases who received repeated transfusions of apheresis platelets in Department of Hematology of Aerospace Center Hospital in 2023 were selected.The platelet corrected count increment(CCI)was used to evaluate the efficacy of platelet transfusion.The correlations between sex,age,disease type,transplantation history,red blood cell transfusion history,and SF level and the efficacy of platelet transfusion were analyzed.Results:A total of 87 patients were included,with a cumulative 326 person-times platelet transfusions.As suggested by one-way analysis of variance,compared with the patients in the age groups of 24-45 years old and 46-66 years old,the patients in the age group of 2-23 years old had a better efficacy of platelet transfusion(P=0.004,P=0.004).There was no significant difference in the efficacy of platelet transfusion between the patients in the age group of 24-45 years old and those in the age group of 46-66 years old(P=0.876).Compared with the patients who had a history of red blood cell transfusion within 3 days,the patients without a history of red blood cell transfusion within 3 days had a better efficacy of platelet transfusion(P＜0.001).Compared with the groups with SF levels of 1.44-2.78 ng/L and＞2.78 ng/L,the group with SF levels＜1.44 ng/L had a better efficacy of platelet transfusion(P=0.028,P＜0.001).Compared with the group with SF levels＞2.78 ng/L,the group with SF levels of 1.44-2.78 ng/L had a better efficacy of platelet transfusion(P=0.001).After adjusting for age and the history of red blood cell transfusion,the transfusion efficacy of the group with SF levels＜1.44 ng/L was better than that of the groups with SF levels of 1.44-2.78 ng/L and＞2.78 ng/L(P=0.021,P＜0.001);Compared with the group with SF levels＞2.78 ng/L,the group with SF levels of 1.44-2.78 ng/L had a better efficacy of platelet transfusion(P=0.001).Both univariate and multivariate linear regression models showed that SF levels were negatively correlated with the efficacy of platelet transfusion(P＜0.001).Conclusion:There is a negative correlation between SF levels and the efficacy of platelet transfusion in patients with malignant hematological diseases.Detection of SF levels may provide guidance for predicting the efficacy of platelet transfusion.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of ultrasound bone knife bone window technique combined with viscous bone in mandibular cysts and its impact on postoperative bone defect repair.Methods:60 patients with mandibular cysts who visited our hospital from January 2024 to June 2024 were selected as the study subjects,they were randomly divided into control group(30 cases)and experimental group(30 cases).The control group underwent traditional scraping surgery(without the use of bone defect repair materials).The experimental group used ultrasound bone knife bone window technology combined with adhesive bone treatment.The surgical time,postoperative visual pain simulation(VAS)score,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative swelling degree,and incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups were observed and compared.Bone defect repair was evaluated by cone beam computed tomography(CBCT)at 3 and 6 months postoperatively.Results:There was no significant difference in surgical time,intraoperative blood loss,postoperative swelling degree,and incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups(P＞0.05).The VAS scores of both groups at 3 and 7 d postoperative were lower than those at 1 d postoperative(P＜0.05),and the VAS score at 7 d postoperative was lower than that 3 d postoperative(P＜0.05).The VAS scores in the experimental group were significantly lower than those in the control group at 1,3 and 7 d postoperative(P＜0.05).The HU values and bone repair area ratio in the experimental group at 3 and 6 months postoperative were significantly higher than those in the control group(P＜0.05),and the HU values and bone repair area ratio in the control group and experimental group at 6 months postoperative were significantly increased compared to those at 3 months postoperative(P＜0.05).Conclusion:The combination of ultrasound bone knife bone window technology and adhesive bone treatment for mandibular cysts can significantly reduce postoperative pain,accelerate bone defect repair,and improve bone density and repair quality.Compared with traditional scraping surgery,the use of sticky bone has significant advantages in postoperative bone regeneration and does not significantly increase the risk of complications,making it of high clinical application value.

This study investigated the potential pathogenicity and genetic characteristics of ST314 Salmonella Kentucky(S.Ken-tucky)isolates from a broiler slaughterhouse.Antimicrobial susceptibility testing and whole-genome sequencing(WGS)were used to determine antimicrobial resistance,virulence factors,and the presence of antimicrobial resistance genes(ARGs)and mobile genetic elements(MGEs)among the isolates.The three multidrug resistant(MDR)isolates exhibited high resistance to multiple antimicrobial agents.The F4-2S strain exhibited resistance to 14 drugs across seven categories,whereas the F4T strain showed resistance to 13 drugs in the same number of categories.In contrast,the Y23 strain was resistant to nine drugs in six categories.Notably,F4-2S dem-onstrated high homology with F4T:both possessed 13 ARGs distributed across nine categories,in addition to a wide range of virulence factors,including secretion systems and effector proteins.The presence of IncR and IncX1 plasmids significantly enhanced both the antimicrobial resistance and pathogenicity of the isolates.The genome map of Y23 revealed a chromosome alongside two plasmids.The chromosome containedonly one resistance gene but several virulence factors,including the type III secretion system(T3SS),which is crucial for bacterial invasion.The plasmid pY23-1 contained eight types of 19 ARGs.Comparative analysis indicated that pY23-1 ex-hibited high homology with pZ1323SSL0055 and pSAL-045,all of which contained multiple ARGs,thus suggesting critical roles of these genes in the evolution of bacterial resistance.In conclusion,ST314 S.Kentucky demonstrated a complex mechanism of resis-tance coupled with significant pathogenic potential.The ARGs and MGEs in the plasmid contributed to the emergence and dissemina-tion of antimicrobial resistance.The multiple virulence factors present in the chromosome may be key factors driving the increasing virulence of ST314 S.Kentucky.

Medical therapy and surgical intervention are the two primary approaches for treating myocardial bridge.However,there remains controversy regarding the use of coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG)and myocardial bridge unroofing.Here,we report a case of myocardial infarction following CABG in a patient with a myocardial bridge.The patient was admitted to Lanzhou First Peopie's Hospital with persistent chest pain,chest tightness,and shortness of breath lasting 2 hours.Physical examination revealed no significant abnormalities.Electrocardiography(ECG)indicated extensive anterior wall myocardial infarction.Laboratory findings showed myoglobin levels of 140.1 ng/ml and troponin Ⅰ levels of 2.59 ng/ml,with no other significant abnormalities.The initial diagnosis was acute extensive anterior wall myocardial infarction.Emergency coronary angiography revealed a myocardial bridge in the mid-segment of the left anterior descending artery(LAD).Emergency CABG using the left internal mammary artery to the LAD was performed,leading to symptomatic improvement,and the patient was discharged in stable condition.However,the patient experienced a recurrent myocardial infarction seven years post-surgery and received secondary preventive medical therapy.The patient is currently under ongoing follow-up care.CABG is an effective treatment for myocardial bridge.However,based on the case reported in this study,we recommend careful evaluation of whether a patient may benefit from CABG.

Objective:To screen out the disinfection procedure and disinfectant suitable for the actual production of specific pathogen free(SPF)chicken embryo eggs,so as to ensure the disinfection effect of specific pathogen free(SPF)chicken embryo eggs in vaccine production.Methods:This study compares the microbial counting methods of soaking,swabbing with cotton swabs and pouring after thin-film filtration for SPF chicken embryo eggs in a GMP production workshop,and selects the most suitable method for SPF chicken embryo egg microbial counting.Experi-mental groups A,B,and C use self-prepared concentrations of 1∶50 sporicidal agent dilution solution,1∶128 alka-line phenol salt dilution solution,and ready-to-use compound quaternary ammonium disinfectant(sterile),respec-tively,and follow the actual disinfection procedures in the workshop to disinfect and sample the surfaces of SPF chicken embryo eggs entering different cleanliness grades,while using sterile water instead of disinfectant as the control group.The average bactericidal rate is calculated by recording the number of colonies and monitoring the viability of chicken embryo cells using microbial culture,and the disinfection effect of the three disinfectants on SPF chicken embryo eggs is evaluated.Results:The comparison of the results from the three methods shows that the method of sampling SPF chicken embryo eggs by immersion and then counting the microbial colonies through membrane filtration is superior to the other two methods.The final cleaning rate of the control group,which used sterilized injection water to clean the SPF chicken embryo eggs,was 91.67％to 96.97％,while the final steriliza-tion rate of the experimental group,which used the above three disinfectants to disinfect the SPF chicken embryo eggs,was 100.00％.By comparing the cell counts of the experimental group and the control group,it was found that the live cell density of the control group was(6.03-6.25)× 105 cells·mL-1,and that of the experimental groups A-C was(6.08-6.17)× 105 cells·mL-1,(5.99-6.25)× 105 cells·mL-1,and(5.87-6.21)× 105 cells·mL-1 respectively;the cell viability of the control group was 90.33％to 91.35％,and that of the experi-mental groups A-C was 88.25％to 92.12％,89.45％to 93.59％,and 88.02％to 92.89％respectively.Through statistical analysis,it was found that the P values of all experimental groups compared with the control group were greater than 0.05,indicating no statistically significant difference.Conclusion:By comparing the dis-infection effects,cell density and cell viability of the three disinfectants and comprehensively considering factors such as cost and risk of the three disinfectants,1∶50 sporicide dilution,1∶128 alkaline phenolate dilution and ready-to-use compound quaternary ammonium salt disinfectant(sterile)can all be used for the daily surface disin-fection of SPF chicken embryo eggs in the production workshop.The selection of an appropriate disinfectant should be based on specific application scenarios and requirements.
