BACKGROUND:There are differentially expressed genes in acute intracerebral hemorrhage,which are related to the occurrence and development of intracerebral hemorrhage. OBJECTIVE:To screen differentially expressed genes and key genes in brain tissue of a rat model with acute intracerebral hemorrhage,to validate them through qPCR,and to analyze the relationships between key genes and the neurological function and brain tissue water content after intracerebral hemorrhage. METHODS:Seventy-eight Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into two groups:in intracerebral hemorrhage group,a rat model of acute intracerebral hemorrhage was made using collagenase injection at the right caudate nucleus;and in sham-operated group,rats were injected with equal amount of saline at the same site.RNA was extracted from rat brain tissues of both groups using the TRIzol method and transcriptome sequencing technology was used to identify differentially expressed genes in brain tissues of acute intracerebral hemorrhage,which were then verified by qPCR and analyzed for the relationships between the genes and neurological function and brain tissue water content after intracerebral hemorrhage.And the key genes were analyzed by GO and KEGG functional enrichment analysis in combination with bioinformatics. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Ten key genes were identified,including CXCL8,SERPINE1,TFPI2,CXCR4,GDA,KCNQ5,ERICH3,SCN3B,CACNA1E,and CCL20.The contents of GDA,KCNQ5,ERICH3,SCN3B,and CACNA1E in the intracerebral hemorrhage group were lower than those in the sham-operated group(P＜0.05).The contents of CXCL8,SERPINE1,TFPI2,CXCR4 and CCL20 in the intracerebral hemorrhage group were higher than those in the sham-operated group(P＜0.05).The contents of GDA,KCNQ5,ERICH3,SCN3B,and CACNA1E were positively correlated with brain tissue water content and neurologic deficit score(P＜0.05),while the contents of CXCL8,SERPINE1,TFPI2,CXCR4 and CCL20 were negatively correlated with brain tissue water content and neurologic deficit score(P＜0.05).GO analysis indicated that differentially expressed genes were mainly enriched in two biological processes(leukocyte chemotaxis and chemokine-mediated signaling pathways),two cell components(cation channel complexes and ion channel complexes),and two molecular functions(gated channel activity and ion channel activity).KEGG analysis indicated that differentially expressed genes were concentrated in tumor necrosis factor signaling pathway,glutamatergic synapses and GABAergic synapses.To conclude,the differentially expressed genes in intracerebral hemorrhage include CXCL8,SERPINE1,TFPI2,CXCR4,GDA,KCNQ5,ERICH3,SCN3B,CACNA1E,and CCL20,and these genes are related to brain tissue water content and neurological function after intracerebral hemorrhage.These genes are mainly enriched in cell components,binding functions,cellular protrusions,and other related biological functions.

Objective: To analyze the characteristics of influenza virus detection in an influenza outbreak in schools, so as to provide a strategic basis for the treatment of influenza outbreaks in schools. Methods: A total of 1 702 samples were collected from 52 school influenza outbreaks reported in Linyi City in 2021-2022. The samples were divided into 3 types according to different symptoms during the management of the epidemic [group A:influenzalike illness (ILI) group; group B:mild illness group; group C:close contacts group]. Rt-PCR was used to detect influenza virus nucleic acid in the collected samples. The detection rate of influenza virus in the outbreaks was analyzed by χ2 test. Results: In total, 1 071 samples (62.93%) tested positive for influenza virus nucleic acid. Among them, 610 out of 726 samples (84.02%) were detected in group A, while 331 out of 634 samples (52.21%) were detected in group B. In group C, 130 out of 342 samples (38.01%) tested positive. The differences were statistically significant (χ2=260.71, P<0.01). In group A, males had a detection rate of 80.83% for influenza virus nucleic acid, compared to 91.36% for females. For group B, the rates were 53.31% for males and 50.87% for females. In group C, males had a rate of 30.72%, while females had a rate of 43.92%. Statistical significance for gender differences was observed only in groups A and C (χ2=12.67, 6.25, P<0.05). According to the days of onset, the detection rates of influenza virus nucleic acid among patients with onset 0-6 days were 56.30%, 74.49%, 89.35%, 86.23%, 69.67%, 62.75%, 34.33%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=128.27, P<0.01). Conclusions Mild cases and close contacts are likely key factors contributing to the prolonged emergence of new cases within classrooms during school influenza outbreaks. The progression of influenza symptoms is related to the risk of transmission.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Objective:To evaluate the fixation with a locking fibular intramedullary nail for treatment of extra-articular distal tibial fracture complicated with fibular fracture (AO/OTA 43A).Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the data of 31 patients who had been treated by fixation with a locking fibular intramedullary nail for extra-articular distal tibial fracture complicated with fibular fracture at Department of Orthopaedics, The 909th Hospital of Joint Logistics Support Force between January 2018 and December 2021. There were 20 males and 11 females; (41.5±15.7) years in age; AO classification of the distal tibial fractures: 10 cases of type 43A1, 10 cases of type 43A2, and 11 cases of type 43A3; 11 open fractures and 20 closed fractures. Fracture healing, fibular alignment, tibiotalar angle, and incidence of complications were regularly followed up and recorded after surgery. At the last follow-up, the ankle joint function was assessed using the Olerud Molander ankle score (OMAS) and the ankle-hindfoot score of American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS).Results:All the 31 patients were followed up for (17.5±3.3) months after surgery. All of them achieved fine fracture union. The union time was (3.9±0.8) months for tibial fractures, and (3.6±0.9) months for fibular fractures. No internal fixation failure was observed. The last follow-up revealed the following: the fibular alignment was 1.8°±1.3° and the ankle tibiotalar angle 9.1°±2.3°; no fibular rotation, shortening, or separation displacement happened; the OMAS score was (88.3±6.2) points, and the AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score (87.4±6.0) points. Two patients required removal of the distal locking screw of the fibular intramedullary nail due to soreness around the lateral malleolus caused by screw loosening. There were no other related complications.Conclusion:Fixation with a locking fibular intramedullary nail is an effective treatment for extra-articular distal tibial fracture complicated with fibular fracture, demonstrating advantages of firm fixation, limited complications, minimal trauma and soft tissue irritation, and good clinical efficacy.

Objective:To understand the pathogenic situation of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in Linyi City, and to analyze the gene characteristics of Coxsackievirus A10 complete VP1 region.Methods:The samples of HFMD cases from Linyi City in 2023 were tested for typing and strain isolation, and the VP1 gene of CV-A10 isolate was amplified and sequenced. The obtained sequences were compared with those in the NCBI database, and the phylogenetic tree was constructed for gene characteristics and molecular epidemiological analysis.Results:In 2023, a total of 861 samples of HFMD were collected, and 594 (68.99%) were positive for nucleic acid tests. The male to female ratio of positive cases was 1.56∶1. Children under 5 years old accounted for 81.65%, and the highest incidence season was from June to August (83.84%). CV-A6 was the main pathogen (84.51%), followed by CV-A10 (9.93%). The nucleotide and amino acid homology of VP1 gene sequence among 13 isolates were 93.29%-100.00% and 97.65%-100.00%, respectively. The nucleotide and amino acid homology with AF081300-Kowalik/USA/1950 was lower (75.95%-76.62%, 91.72%-92.41%). The amino acid and nucleotide homology with C2c was the highest (94.28%-96.76%, 98.28%-100.00%), and the genetic distance was the closest (0.04-0.06). Amino acid site variation analysis showed that compared with the prototype strain AF081300-Kowalik/USA/1950, the isolates had more site variation, while only some isolates had I80V, E141K, P147S, T219I, E240K and V261I mutations compared with the representative strain C2c. The genetic evolution tree showed that the isolates were all in the same clade as the C2c representative strains, and they all belonged to the C2c genotype, and the isolates were further divided into two smaller clades.Conclusions:In 2023, CV-A6 was the main pathogen of HFMD in Linyi City, followed by CV-A10. All CV-A10 isolates were C2c genotypes and can be divided into two evolutionary clades. Continuous monitoring and genetic characterization of CV-A10 should be strengthened.

Objective To explore the mechanism of Jianshen Lishui Decoction on nerve cell apoptosis in rats with cerebral hemorrhage.Methods The expression of miR-153 in cerebral hemorrhage was analyzed by miRNA microarray and RT-PCR,and the relationship between miR-153 and neuronal apoptosis in cerebral hemorrhage was observed,and predicted the target gene of miR-153;the binding of miR-153 to target genes was studied by dual-luciferase reporter gene Experiments,and to observe the effects of overexpression and inhibition of miR-153 on target genes.Subsequently,the relationship between target genes and neuronal apoptosis in cerebral hemorrhage was determined.Finally,the effect of Jianshen Lishui Decoction on miR-153 and the target gene,and finally explored the related mechanism of Jianshen Lishui Decoction on nerve cell apoptosis in rats with cerebral hemorrhage.Results Microarray chip and RT-PCR detection showed that miR-153 was lowly expressed in cerebral hemorrhage(P<0.05),and miR-153 was negatively correlated with neuronal apoptosis(R:-0.875,P=0.0002).The online databases TargetScan and miRDB showed that miR-153 has a binding region with TREM1,and the dual-luciferase reporter gene demonstrated a binding relationship between the two.When miR-153 was overexpressed,the expression of TREM1 was down-regulated,conversely,up-regulated when miR-153 was repressed,and TREM1 was positively correlated with nerve cell apoptosis(R:0.857,P<0.001).The expression of TREM1,the number of nerve cell apoptosis and the score of Neurological Deficit Scores in the Jianshen Lishui Decoction group were lower than those in the model group(P<0.05),and the expression of miR-153 was higher than that in the model group(P<0.05).The expression of TREM1,the number of nerve cell apoptosis and the score of Neurological Deficit Scores in the Jianshen Lishui Decoction +miR-153 inhibition group were higher than those in the Jianshen Lishui Decoction group(P<0.05).Conclusion Jianshen Lishui Decoction inhibits the apoptosis of nerve cells and protects the neurologicalfunctions in rats with cerebral hemorrhage by promoting miR-153 expression and inhibitingTREM1 expression.

Small integral membrane protein 1(SMIM1) gene encodes Vel blood group antigen, and homozygous deletion of 17 bases pairs in its exon 3 leads to Vel negative phenotype. As a rare phenotype, accurate identification and prevention of transfusion reaction for Vel negative phenotype is particularly important. In addition to serving as a Vel blood group antigen, recent bioinformatics analysis suggests that SMIM1 protein may be a new tumor biomarker involved in the occurrence and development of numerous tumors. Due to the similarity in structure between SMIM1 protein and glycoprotein, and its phosphorylation in red blood cells infected with Plasmodium falciparum, it is speculated that SMIM1 protein may be involved in the development of malaria. Therefore, this article provides a review of the related research on SMIM1 and its coding protein in Vel blood type, tumor and plasmodium infection.

Objective To study the short-term efficacy of combined cervical metastatic lymph nodes hy-perthermia during locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma induction chemotherapy and concurrent chemo-radiotherapy and its effect on peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets.Methods Sixty patients with pathological-ly diagnosed nasopharyngeal carcinoma in this hospital from July 2021 to July 2022 were collected as the study subjects and divided into the observation group(induction chemotherapy+concurrent chemoradiotherapy combined with hyperthermia)and control group(induction chemotherapy+concurrent chemoradiotherapy),30 cases in each group.The general information,short term efficacy,EB virus(EBV)DNA level,adverse reac-tions occurrence,peripheral blood lymph cell subsets and hot shock protein 90α(HSP90α)were recorded and compared between the two groups.Results Compared with the control group,the objective remission rate in the observation group was higher(100.0％vs.90.0％),the EBV positive rate after induction chemotherapy was lower(20.0％vs.46.7％),the occurrence rate of ≥3 grade radiation dermatitis was higher(30.0％vs.6.7％),the level of natural killer(NK)cells after radiotherapy was increased[(25.89±5.53)％vs.(19.18±6.41)％],the HSP90α level after treatment was increased[(91.19±9.18)ng/mL vs.(67.22± 11.02)ng/mL],and the differences were statistically significant(P＜0.05).Compared with before treatment,the levels of CD3+,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+after radiotherapy in the observation group were decreased,the levels of CD3+,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+in the control group were decreased,but the differences between the two groups were not statistically significant(P＜0.05),while the proportion of peripheral blood NK cells in the experi-mental group was significantly increased compared with the control group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Hyper-thermia canimprove the local control of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cervical lymph node metastasis and improve the immune function.

Objective:To retrospect the blood transfusion status of patients with extensive burns in multiple centers and analyze its influencing factors.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted. Clinical data of 455 patients with extensive burns who met the inclusion criteria and were admitted to the burn centers of 3 hospitals from January 2016 to June 2022 were collected, including 202 patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University, 179 patients from the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine, and 74 patients from the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University. The following data were collected from patients during their hospitalization, including infusion of red blood cells, plasma, and platelets during hospitalization; age, gender, body mass index, combined underlying diseases, cause of injury, time of admission after injury, type of admission, total burn area, full-thickness burn area, combination of inhalation injury, combination of other trauma, and combination of pulmonary edema; the blood lactic acid, serum creatinine, total bilirubin, and albumin values within 24 h of admission; combination of bloodstream, wound, lung, and urinary tract infection, and combination of sepsis; the number of escharectomy or tangential excision and skin grafting surgery (hereinafter referred to as surgery) and total surgical blood loss volume; occurrence of hemoglobin<70 g/L, admission to intensive care unit (ICU), conduction of mechanical ventilation and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), length of hospital stay, and prognosis were recorded. In 602 surgeries of patients within 14 days after injury, data including area of escharectomy or tangential excision and skin graft harvesting, duration of operation, and surgical blood loss volume per surgery, operation site, and use of tourniquet and wound graft were collected. Data were statistically analyzed with Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis H test, and Spearman correlation analysis. Combined with the results of single factor analysis and clinical significance, multiple linear regression analysis was performed to screen the independent influencing factors of red blood cell infusion volume and plasma infusion volume, as well as blood loss volume per surgery. Results:During the whole hospitalization period, 437 (96.0%) patients received blood transfusion therapy, including 435 (95.6%) patients, 410 (90.1%) patients, and 73 (16.0%) patients who received transfusion of plasma, red blood cells, and platelets, respectively. The patients were mainly male, aged 18 to 92 years. There were statistically significant differences in the plasma infusion volume among patients with different combination of underlying disease, combination of inhalation injury, combination of other trauma, combination of pulmonary edema, combination of bloodstream infection, combination of wound infection, combination of lung infection, combination of urinary tract infection, combination of sepsis, occurrence of hemoglobin value <70 g/L, admission to ICU, conduction of mechanical ventilation, and conduction of CRRT (with Z values of -2.06, -4.67, -2.11, -6.13, -9.56, -4.93, -8.08, -4.78, -9.12, -6.55, -9.37, -11.46, and -7.17, respectively, P<0.05). The total burn area, full-thickness burn area, blood lactic acid value within 24 h of admission, serum creatinine value within 24 h of admission, albumin value within 24 h of admission, number of surgeries, and total surgical blood loss volume were correlated with the plasma infusion volume of patients (with r values of 0.39, 0.51, 0.14, 0.28, -0.13, 0.47, and 0.56, respectively, P<0.05).There were statistically significant differences in the red blood cell infusion volume among patients with different gender, combination of inhalation injury, combination of other trauma, combination of pulmonary edema, combination of bloodstream infection, combination of wound infection, combination of lung infection, combination of urinary tract infection, combination of sepsis, occurrence of hemoglobin value <70 g/L, admission to ICU, conduction of mechanical ventilation, and conduction of CRRT (with Z values of -2.00, -4.34, -3.10, -4.22, -8.24, -7.66, -8.62, -4.75, -7.42, -9.36, -6.12, and -8.31, -6.64, respectively, P<0.05). The age, total burn area, full-thickness burn area, blood lactic acid value within 24 h of admission, serum creatinine value within 24 h of admission, total bilirubin value within 24 h of admission, number of surgeries, and total surgical blood loss volume were correlated with the red blood cell infusion volume of patients (with r values of 0.12, 0.22, 0.49, 0.09, 0.18, 0.13, -0.15, 0.69, and 0.77, respectively, P<0.05). Combined underlying diseases, full-thickness burn area, combined pulmonary edema, serum creatinine value within 24 h of admission, combined sepsis, conduction of CRRT, number of surgeries, and total surgical blood loss volume were the independent influencing factors for plasma infusion volume during hospitalization in patients with extensive burns (with standardized regression coefficients of 0.09, 0.16, 0.12, 0.07, 0.11, 0.15, 0.31, and 0.26, respectively, P<0.05). Female, full-thickness burn area, serum creatinine value within 24 h of admission, combined sepsis, occurrence of hemoglobin value <70 g/L, conduction of CRRT, and total surgical blood loss volume were the independent influencing factors for red blood cell infusion volume during hospitalization in patients with extensive burns (with standardized regression coefficients of 0.10, 0.12, 0.10, 0.11, 0.05, 0.19, and 0.54, respectively, P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in blood loss volume per surgery of patients with different surgical site and wound graft (with Z values of -2.54 and -2.27, respectively, P<0.05). The area of escharectomy or tangential excision and skin graft harvesting and duration of operation were correlated with the blood loss volume per surgery of patients (with r values of 0.40 and 0.21, respectively, P<0.05). The area of escharectomy or tangential excision and skin graft harvesting, duration of operation, and active wound grafts were the independent influencing factors for blood loss volume per surgery of patients with extensive burns (with standardized regression coefficients of 0.41, 0.16, and 0.12, respectively, P<0.05). Conclusions:The major factors influencing blood transfusion status in patients with extensive burns are female, combined underlying diseases, full-thickness burn area, serum creatinine value within 24 h of admission, combined pulmonary edema, occurrence of hemoglobin value <70 g/L, combined sepsis, conduction of CRRT, number of surgery, and total surgical blood loss volume. In addition, the area of escharectomy or tangential excision and skin graft harvesting, duration of operation, and active wound grafts indirectly affect the patient's blood transfusion status by affecting the blood loss volume per surgery.

Objective:To study the efficacy and safety of EndoClot polysaccharide hemostatic system (EndoClot PHS) for heparinized arterial hemorrhage of upper digestive tract (Forrest Ⅰa) in animal model.Methods:Twelve experimental pigs were randomly divided into the test group ( n=6) and the control group ( n=6) by simple random grouping method. Gastric arterial hemorrhage models were established. Endoclot PHS and Hemospray were used to spray on the wound to stop bleeding in the test group and the control group respectively. The time of effective hemostasis, the amount of hemostatic particles used, and the blockage of the powder feeding tube and its replacement were compared between the two groups. The survival and complications of experimental pigs were observed after the operation. In 10 days after the operation, the experimental pigs were euthanized for pathological dissection. Results:Spurting or pulsatile bleeding was achieved in all experimental pigs. There were significant differences in the time of effective hemostasis (8.75±0.84 min VS 9.83±0.62 min, t=-2.53, P=0.030) and the amount of hemostatic particles used to achieve effective hemostasis (6.71±0.39 g VS 14.10±1.62 g, t=-10.86, P<0.001) between the test group and the control group. There was no significant difference in the occurence of clogging or the replacement of powder feeding pipes between the two groups (0.64±0.02 times VS 0.67±0.04 times, t=-1.64, P=0.131). In addition, the gas source of the test group was stable, and the visual field under the endoscope was clear. Neither the test group nor the control group had gastric lesions, perforation, or embolism. The blood glucose, blood routine, and liver and kidney functions were normal, and no thrombosis or embolism of the main organs occurred in either group. Conclusion:EndoClot PHS is safe and effective for heparinized upper gastrointestinal arterial hemorrhage (Forrest Ⅰa) in animal models.
