The promulgation of the Technical Specifications for Clinical Use of Blood (2025 Edition) signifies that China's clinical blood transfusion management has transitioned from mere technical operations to a new stage centered on patient blood management (PBM). Through an in-depth comparison of the new and old specifications, this paper analyzes the core transformations regarding conceptual reconstruction, legal alignment, technological upgrades, and closed-loop management. The new specifications establish PBM principles, reinforce legal safeguards for informed consent and emergency treatment, and construct a comprehensive, refined quality control system by specifying compatibility testing standards and introducing a post-transfusion evaluation system. Medical institutions should seize this opportunity to update management protocols and information systems, deepen multidisciplinary collaboration, and drive the profound transformation of clinical blood use from focusing solely on safety assurance to placing equal emphasis on science and value.

This article reports a 14-year-old boy who presented with "a nearly 7-year history of a right upper arm mass and a more than 1-year history of cervical lymphadenopathy". His main clinical manifestations included a subcutaneous mass in the right upper arm, bilateral eyelid and submandibular masses, and multiple enlarged cervical lymph nodes, accompanied by persistent peripheral blood eosinophilia. Biopsies of the right upper arm lesion and a left submandibular lymph node showed lymphoid hyperplasia with prominent eosinophilic infiltration, vascular and fibrous tissue proliferation, and eosinophilic microabscess formation in the left submandibular lymph node, confirming the diagnosis of Kimura′s disease. The lesions regressed markedly after glucocorticoid therapy but recurred after treatment discontinuation. Because the patient and his family were concerned about long-term glucocorticoid therapy, mepolizumab was subsequently administered. Peripheral eosinophil counts normalized, whereas the local tissue lesions showed limited improvement. A multidisciplinary team comprehensively evaluated the diagnosis, the need for repeat biopsy of atypical lymph nodes on imaging, the possible association between the cardiac valve abnormalities and the underlying disease, and subsequent treatment options. The patient is currently receiving methotrexate with folic acid supplementation and remains under regular follow-up. This case indicates that the diagnosis of Kimura′s disease relies on clinical manifestations and histopathological findings. Once diagnosed, comprehensive evaluation, individualized treatment, and long-term management should be implemented.

China emerges as a major country in nuclear energy development and the application of nuclear and radiologic technology. The diagnosis and treatment of acute radiation syndrom (ARS) caused by external irradiation represent a core function in the country′s medical rescue of nuclear and radiological emergencies. Clinically, ARS manifests hematopoietic, gastrointestinal, cutaneous, and central nervous system syndromes, with specific clinical manifestations, signs, severity, and prognosis strongly correlated with radiation dose. China has established a number of national and provincial centers for treating radiation-induced damage. Nevertheless, most medical staff have limited experience in ARS treatment. This consensus presents a summary of recent experience in treating ARS of China. In combination with recommendations from international organizations such as the World Health Organization (WHO), this consensus proposes key evidence of critical clinical issues of ARS, covering all links in the rescue of external irradiation-induced ARS. Initially, clinical diagnosis, syndromes, and severe degrees should be determined based on clinical symptoms and dose estimates. It is necessary to normalize clinical treatment measures for hematopoietic recovery, gastrointestinal injury treatment, infection control, symptomatic treatment, and multi-organ function preservation. To this end, this consensus offers cautions. This consensus provides principles of treatment with traditional Chinese medicine, psychological intervention, and follow-up. Additionally, it highlights multidisciplinary collaboration. It is recommended that this consensus be applied in relevant treatment centers.

Objective:To investigate the effect and clinical efficacy of assisted negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) dressing on reduction of the size of free anterolateral thigh perforator flap (ALTPF) in reconstruction of soft tissue defects of limbs, and to observe the clinical efficacy of NPWT in free ALTPF surgery.Methods:From June 2022 to January 2024, 19 patient (13 males and 6 females) with soft tissue defects in limbs received surgical treatment using NPWT assisted transfer of free ALTPF in the Department of Repair and Reconstruction Surgery, Foshan Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Eighth School of Clinical Medicine, Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Of the 19 defects, 8 were in calf, 7 in foot and around ankle, 3 in forearm and 1 around elbow. The soft tissue defects ranged from 11.2 cm×9.5 cm to 24.5 cm×10.5 cm, and with comminuted fracture in different degrees as well as the exposure of bone, tendon or nerve. During surgery, the ALTPFs were harvested with a reduced width from the donor sites at 10.5 cm×7.0 cm to 24.0 cm×7.5 cm in size. After an ALTPF had been transferred to the recipient site, the remaining defect that was not covered by the ALTPF was then covered by a NPWT dressing. After the flap was stabilised, NPWT dressing was removed and the defect was closed by directly suture. Surgical data were taken and recorded during surgery. The healing of wound and survival of flaps were observed after surgery. Scheduled postoperative follow-ups were conducted through outpatient clinic or via WeChat reviews to monitor the overall appearance of recipient and donor sites, colour of flap, complications and functional recovery, and other relevant information. Functional recovery of upper limb was evaluated according to the Evaluation Trial Standards of Upper Limb Partial Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association, and the functional recovery of lower extremity was evaluated according to the Lower Extremity Functional Scale (LEFS).Results:The flaps were all fully viable, with soft texture and good appearance, the width of the flaps was designed 2.0-3.5 cm smaller than that of the defect, and the size of the flaps was 32.9-77.3 cm 2 smaller than that of the defects. All donor sites were closed by suture in the primary surgery, and left with linear scars. Postoperative follow-up lasted for 4 to 18 months. Of the 4 patients with upper limb injuries, 3 achieved the limb function in excellent and 1 in good; While of the 15 patients with lower limb injuries, 12 achieved the limb function in excellent, 2 in good and 1 in fair. Conclusion:Combination of NPWT dressing and free ALTPF is in accordance with the theory of flap economics and the concept of minimal damage to donor site. It avoids the waste of soft tissues, and provides a new idea for traumatic surgery.

This study aimed to identify mutations in the human insulin receptor gene (INSR) and investigate their role in the pathogenesis of severe insulin resistance syndrome. Sanger sequencing of the INSR gene was performed on a patient clinically suspected of having type A insulin resistance syndrome admitted to the Department of Endocrinology, the First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital. Upon identifying mutations, relevant exons were sequenced in her first-degree relatives. Additionally, control groups consisting of individuals with type 2 diabetes and those with normal glucose tolerance were screened for the mutation detected in the patient. Functional predictions of the INSR protein were made using MutationTaster, SIFT, and PolyPhen2 software. A previously unreported heterozygous missense mutation, c.3652G/A (Asp1218Asn), in exon 20 was identified in both the proband and her father. This mutation was not present in any of the control individuals. Multiple prediction tools indicate that this mutation likely disrupts gene/protein structure or function. The c.3652G/A (Asp1218Asn) heterozygous mutation in INSR is a novel variant that plays a significant role in the pathogenesis of severe insulin resistance in this Chinese family.

Clinical data of two patients with X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD) initially presenting as Addison′s disease were collected from the Department of Endocrinology, First Medical Center of Chinese PLA General Hospital. Relevant medical history, clinical features, laboratory tests, and genetic results were analyzed. The two male patients, aged 7 years (case 1) and 15 years (case 2), initially presented with generalized skin hyperpigmentation, without any family history of similar disorders. Both had normal growth and development, and adrenal CT and brain MRI revealed no significant abnormalities. Elevated very long-chain fatty acid (VLCFA) levels were detected. Genetic analyses identified a maternally inherited missense mutation (c.830G>A, p.Gly277Glu) in the ATP-binding cassette subfamily D member 1 (ABCD1) gene in case 1, and a missense mutation (c.1499G>T, p.Gly500Val) in case 2. Protein structural predictions indicated both mutations as potentially damaging or damaging, and both were classified as likely pathogenic according to American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) criteria (PM1/PM2/PP3_Moderate and PM2/PP3_Moderate/PM6, respectively), supporting their correlation with the clinical phenotype. Clinicians should maintain vigilance for X-ALD in male patients presenting with Addison′s disease, and combined VLCFA and genetic testing can effectively prevent misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis.

BACKGROUND:We have successfully established an animal model of small ear pig in southern Yunnan province with internal tension relieving technique combined with autologous Achilles tendon for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction,and verified the stability and reliability of the model.However,whether internal tension relieving technique can promote the ligamentalization process of autologous Achilles tendon graft has not been studied. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the differences in the process of ligamentalization between conventional reconstruction and internal reduction reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament by gross view,histology and electron microscopy. METHODS:Thirty adult female small ear pigs in southern Yunnan province were selected.Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction was performed on the left knee joint with the ipsilateral knee Achilles tendon(n=30 in the normal group),and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction was performed on the right knee joint with the ipsilateral knee Achilles tendon combined with the internal relaxation and enhancement system(n=30 in the relaxation group).The autogenous right forelimb was used as the control group;the anterior cruciate ligament was exposed but not severed or surgically treated.At 12,24,and 48 weeks after surgery,10 animals were sacrificed,respectively.The left and right knee joint specimens were taken for gross morphological observation to evaluate the graft morphology.MAS score was used to evaluate the excellent and good rate of the ligament at each time point.Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to evaluate the degree of ligament graft vascularization.Collagen fibers and nuclear morphology were observed,and nuclear morphology was scored.Ultrastructural remodeling was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The ligament healing shape of the relaxation group was better at various time points after surgery,and the excellent and good rate of MAS score was higher(P<0.05).Moreover,the relaxation group could obtain higher ligament vascularization score(P<0.05).(2)The arrangement of collagen bundles and fiber bundles in the two groups gradually tended to be orderly,and the transverse fiber connections between collagen gradually increased and thickened,suggesting that the strength and shape degree of the grafts were gradually improved,but the ligament remodeling in the relaxation group was always faster than that in the normal group at various time points after surgery.(3)The diameter,distribution density,and arrangement degree of collagen fibers in the relaxation group were better than those in the normal group at all time points,especially in the comparison of collagen fiber diameter between and within the relaxation group(P<0.05).
