Objective: To identify the mimicking autoantibodies using papain-enhanced erythrocyte agglutination in a case of repeated red blood cell transfusion refractoriness, aiming to explore the immune hematological methods for identifying mimicking alloantibodies, autoantibodies and alloantibodies, and to develop a safe and effective blood transfusion strategy based on the results. Methods: ABO, RhD and RhEeCc blood groups were detected using routine blood group serological method. The unexpected antibodies in plasma were screened and identified, followed by identification using a two-step papain-treated indirect antiglobulin test (enzyme-IAT). The cause of transfusion refractoriness of red blood cells was analyzed and summarized, and the prognosis was followed up. Results: The patient's blood type was type A, CCDee. The direct antiglobulin test (DAT) was positive. Unexpected antibody screening and identification using saline tube method, polybrene method, IAT were negative, and the release fluid (acid release) IAT identification was negative. Mimicking anti-e antibodies in plasma was identified by enzyme-ITA. The cause of red blood cell transfusion refractoriness in patients was autoimmune hemolysis caused by mimicking anti-e antibodies. After choosing to avoid antibodies corresponding to antigen-positive red blood cells, the patient's hemoglobin (Hb) increase value is in line with theoretical expectations, indicating effective red blood cell transfusion. Conclusion: Mimicking antibodies can cause immune destruction of red blood cells by non-specific binding to their own red blood cells and specific binding to red blood cells, resulting in red blood cell transfusion refractoriness.

Objective To establish an HPLC method to determine the concentration of inositol nicotinate（IN） in rat skin, and study the pharmacokinetic characteristics of IN after transdermal administration of heparin sodium inositol nicotinate cream in rats.

The method is simple, rapid, specific and reproducible, which could be successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study of IN after transdermal administration in rats.

Object To study the efficacy and potential mechanism of Tongbianling capsule in constipation. Methods The effects of Tongbianling capsule on intestinal motility in normal mice and carbon powder propulsion rate in small intestine of constipation model mice after were observed administration. The potential targets and key pathways of Tongbianling capsule in treating constipation were identified through network pharmacology. To verify the mechanism, the expression of p-PI3K/PI3K, p-AKT/AKT and CASP3 proteins in mouse colon tissue was detected by the western blot. Results The time for mice to excrete the first black stool was shortened and the number of fecal particles was increased in Tongbianling capsule administration group, and the carbon powder propulsion rate of mice in each Tongbianling capsule administration group was increased. The results of network pharmacology showed that treatment of constipation by Tongbianling capsule may be related to signaling pathways such as PI3K-Akt signaling pathway and 5-HT. The protein expression of p-PI3K/PI3K, p-AKT/AKT, and CASP3 in mouse colon tissue could be significantly downregulated in administration group. Conclusion Tongbianling capsule could effectively promote intestinal peristalsis in mice, increase the frequency of defecation, and effectively treat constipation. The mechanism of its action may be related to the direct or indirect regulation of intestinal motility by the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway.

Direct antiglobulin test (DAT), also known as Coomb's test, is a method used in blood immunology to detect whether the surface of red blood cells is sensitized by immunoglobulin or complement. It is mainly used in the diagnosis of autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA), neonatal hemolytic anemia, hemolytic transfusion reaction and blood matching during blood transfusion. DAT positive has always been the focus of researchers, because it has an important impact on the efficacy of blood transfusion. In recent years, there has been extensive research on the identification of DAT positivity types and the distribution characteristics of diseases in clinical patients, and the study on hemolytic disease of the newborn has also been popular. However, the transfusion safety of DAT-positive blood donors has been a hot topic in the field of blood transfusion for many years. Moreover, there is no clear requirement from the state on the handling of DAT-positive blood and whether DAT-positive blood donors should be deferred from donation. Therefore, this article reviews the serological studies on DAT immunotyping and IgG subtype typing of voluntary blood donors, as well as the impact of DAT-positive blood on blood transfusion safety, in order to provide references for the blood issuance strategy of DAT-positive blood and whether DAT-positive blood donors should be deferred.

This article reviews and comprehensively analyzes the research progress of the specific role of CD36 in the immune response of blood transfusion and its regulatory mechanism at home and abroad. Combined with clinical cases and experimental data, the pathophysiological mechanism of CD36 in immune response and its immune-mediated blood transfusion safety issues are reviewed. It is expected to provide new theoretical support and practical guidance for the field of blood transfusion safety and promote the further development of blood transfusion medicine.

Objective To establish the fingerprint of Jianggui granules, and evaluate it by chemometrics. Methods The fingerprint of Jianggui granules was established by HPLC. Similarity evaluation system of chromatographic fingerprint of TCM （2012 edition） was used to evaluate the similarity evaluation. Then, the quality of the drug was assessed by cluster analysis （CA）, principal components analysis （PCA） and partial least squares discriminant analysis （PLS-DA）. Results The characteristic fingerprint of Jianggui granules was established and 18 common peaks were verified. Five chromatographic peaks were identified，i.e. Puerarin, glycyrrhizin, cinnamic acid, cinnamaldehyde and ammonium glycyrrhizinate. The similarities of samples were >0.9. Results of CA showed that 14 batches of samples could be classified into two categories：S1 and S4 were grouped into one category；others were grouped into the other category. The results of PCA showed that the cumulative contribution rate of the first two principal components was 96.61%. The results of OPLS-DA showed that the eleven peaks with VIP value >1 were puerarin （peak 8）, glycyrrhizin （peak 14）, cinnamaldehyde （peak 17） and ammonium glycyrrhizinate （peak 18）. Conclusion HPLC fingerprint of Jianggui granules was established. The established method was accurate and reliable，which could be used in quality evaluation of Jianggui granules.

Objective To explore the effects of different CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressures during surgery on overweight or obese patients with laparoscopic panhysterectomy in Trendelenburg position.Methods A total of 88 overweight or obese patients who underwent laparoscopic panhysterectomy were selected and randomly divided into the low-pressure group and the high-pressure group according to random number table method,with 44 patients in each group.All patients used CO2 as the pneumoperitoneum medium during surgery,with 10 mmHg of CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressure in the low-pressure group and 15 mmHg of CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressure in the high-pressure group.The operation-related indexes,respiratory indicators,nasopharyngeal temperature and adverse reactions of patients were compared between the two groups.Results There was no significant difference in the surgical time,blood loss,intraoperative infusion volume,incidence of organ injury,and laparotomy rate between the two groups(P>0.05).The recovery time of anesthesia of patients in the low-pressure group was shorter than that in the high-pressure group(P<0.05).At 30 minutes after the establishment of pneumoperitoneum,the peak airway pressure(Ppeak)and plateau pressure(Pplat)of patients in the high-pressure group were significantly higher than those in the low-pressure group(P<0.05),while the dynamic lung compliance(Cdyn)of patients in the high-pressure group was significantly lower than that in the low-pressure group(P<0.05).At 60 minutes after the establishment of pneumoperitoneum and the end of pneumoperitoneum,the nasopharyngeal temperature of patients in the high-pressure group were significantly lower than those in the low-pressure group(P<0.05).The incidences of intraoperative hypothermia and shivering in the high-pressure group were significantly higher than those in the low-pressure group(P<0.05).Conclusion Compared with 15 mmHg of CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressure,10 mmHg of CO2 pneumoperitoneum pressure on overweight or obese patients with laparoscopic panhysterectomy in Trendelenburg position does not increase surgical difficulty,and the patients has lower airway pressure,better lung compliance,fewer adverse reactions,and faster recovery,which can also avoid intraoperative hypothermia.

Sepsis constitutes one of the principal causes of death globally, and the mortality rate of patients complicated with sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SIC) surges by over 50%. Early identification of patients with sepsis, particularly SIC, and implementing clinical intervention are vital measures to reduce the mortality. In recent years, biomarkers for the diagnosis and prognosis of SIC have emerged rapidly. Among classical myocardial injury biomarkers, cardiac troponin (cTn), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), and soluble growth stimulation gene 2 protein (sST2) have predictive value for the prognosis of SIC. Meanwhile, heart-type fatty acid-binding protein (h-FABP) possess relatively high value in diagnosis. Moreover, plasma metabolites, microRNA (miRNA), as well as recently identified markers related to sepsis or cardiovascular diseases also demonstrate outstanding predictive value in both the diagnosis and prognosis of SIC. For instance, exosomal miR-150-5p, blood miR-155, blood miR-378a-3p, blood miR-21-3p, blood miR-233, blood miR-23b, blood miR-135, lipocalin (LCN), heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), fibroblast growth factor-21 (FGF-21), and growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15) show varying degrees of predictive value when it comes to diagnosing SIC. S100A8/A9 protein, triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index, angiotensinogen II (Ang II) and lactoferrin are correlated with the prognosis of SIC. Meanwhile, it has been discovered that the combination of multiple biomarkers outperforms a single biomarker, and certain combinations exhibit superior diagnostic performance. However, most of these studies use single-center clinical data, which has certain limitations and still calls for more high-quality evidence support. Therefore, identifying biomarker combinations that are supported by high-quality evidence, have bedside application potential, and possess high sensitivity and specificity is of crucial importance for the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of SIC. This review is carried out on the current articles that report biomarkers with predictive value and the diagnosis and prediction of multiple biomarkers in combination, in the hope of continuously optimizing the diagnostic strategy for the specific identification of early SIC.

Objective:To investigate the effect of Gexia Zhuyu decoction on Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)/Nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB) signaling pathway on ulcerative colitis and intestinal mucosal barrier.Methods:A total of 86 cases of ulcerative colitis admitted to Xi′an Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Hospital from March 2019 to July 2023 were prospectively included and divided into observation group and control group according to random number table method, with 43 cases in each group. The control group was treated with mesalazine enteric-coated tablets; The observation group was treated with mesalazine enteric-coated tablets combined with Gexia Zhuyu decoction for removing stasis. The clinical efficacy of the two groups was compared in terms of TCM syndrome score, intestinal mucosal barrier function index [diamine oxidase (DAO), D-lactic acid (D-LA)], TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway expression and inflammatory factor index [interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)] before and after treatment. The occurrence of adverse reactions was also compared.Results:The total effective rate of observation group was higher than that of control group (χ 2=4.074, P=0.044). Before treatment, there was no significant difference in TCM syndrome scores between the two groups (all P>0.05). After treatment, the TCM syndrome scores of both groups were lower than those before treatment (all P<0.05), and the TCM syndrome scores of the observation group were lower than those of the control group (all P<0.05). Before treatment, there were no significant differences in D-LA and DAO levels between the two groups (all P>0.05). After treatment, the levels of D-LA and DAO in both groups were lower than before treatment (all P<0.05), and the levels of D-LA and DAO in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05). After treatment, the mRNA expressions of TLR4 and NF-κB in both groups were decreased compared with those before treatment, and the mRNA expressions of TLR4 and NF-κB in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05). After treatment, the levels of IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α in both groups were decreased compared with those before treatment (all P<0.05), and the levels of IL-6, IL-8 and TNF-α in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups (χ 2=2.346, P=0.126). Conclusions:The application of Gexia Zhuyu decoction in the treatment of ulcerative colitis can not only effectively improve the clinical symptoms, signs and intestinal mucosal barrier function, but also improve the inflammatory response by mediating TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway.
