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 diagnostic capabilities of PCR-flow Fluorescence Hybridization technology in prenatal genetic diagnosis of thalassemia.Methods:8 005 cases of prenatal genetic diagnosis of thalassemia in Guangdong Women and Children Hospital from September 2017 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. All samples were diagnosed by traditional genetic methods include multiple Gap-PCR, PCR-RDB, MLPA and Sanger sequencing. Meanwhile, PCR-flow Fluorescence Hybridization technology was used as a verification platform for detecting common mutation sites of thalassemia. The results were analyzed to evaluate the diagnostic capabilities of PCR-flow Fluorescence Hybridization technology compared with traditional methods in prenatal genetic diagnosis of thalassemia.Results:By traditional methods, 1 939 cases (24.22%, 1 939/8 005) were normal and 6 066 cases (75.78%, 6 066/8 005) were diagnosed as thalassemia, including 4 513 cases of α-thalassemia, 1 475 cases of β-thalassemia, and 78 cases of αβ-thalassemia. By PCR-flow Fluorescence Hybridization technology, 7 845 samples were successfully diagnosed after initial interpretation by software. Compared with traditional methods, all the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy were 100%. The other 160 samples which failed in the initial interpretation can be successfully interpreted after review or manual interpretation.Conclusion:There were no differences between the two methods on the detecting of common mutation sites of thalassemia.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between preoperative widespread pain and chronic post-surgical pain (CPSP) following total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in the patients with knee osteoarthritis.Methods:Two hundred American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ-Ⅲ patients with knee osteoarthritis, aged 40-70 yr, undergoing elective the first unilateral primary TKA under general anesthesia, were enrolled.The widespread pain index, visual analogue scale score, Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale and Central Sensitization Inventory scores were recorded at 1 day before surgery.The patients were divided into CPSP-positive group and CPSP-negative group according to visual analogue scale score at 6 months after surgery.Risk factors for CPSP were analyzed by logistic regression.Results:The results of logistic regression analysis showed that increased preoperative widespread pain index score, Central Sensitization Inventory score and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale score and female were risk factors for CPSP after TKA.Conclusions:Preoperative widespread pain is a risk factor for CPSP following TKA in the patients with knee osteoarthritis.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of parecoxib sodium on phenotypic transformation of alveolar macrophages in a mouse model of ventilator-associated lung injury (VALI).Methods:Forty-five SPF healthy adult male C57BL/6J mice, weighing 22-30 g, aged 8-12 weeks, were divided into 3 groups ( n=15 each) using a random number table method: sham operation group (S group), VALI group (V group) and parecoxib sodium group (P group). Lipopolysaccharide 20 ng was intraperitoneally injected, and 2 h later the animals were mechanically ventilated (tidal volume 30 ml/kg, respiratory rate 70 breaths/min, inspiratory/expiratory ratio 1∶2, fraction of inspired oxygen 21%, positive end-expiratory pressure 0) for 4 h to establish the model of VALI.Parecoxib sodium 30 mg/kg was intravenously injected at 1 h prior to mechanical ventilation in group P. The mice were sacrificed at 4 h of ventilation, the right lung was lavaged and the broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was collected for determination of interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-10 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) concentrations (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay), expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and arginase-1(Arg-1) in BALF and expression of phosphorylated Janus kinase 2 (p-JAK2) and phosphorylated signal transduction and transcription activator 3 (p-STAT-3) (by Western blot). The left lung was removed for determination of the wet/dry weight ratio (W/D ratio) and for examination of the pathological changes which were scored. Results:Compared with group S, the lung injury score, W/D ratio, concentrations of IL-6, IL-10 and TNF-α in BALF, and expression of iNOS, Arg-1, p-JAK2 and p-STAT-3 were significantly increased in V and P groups ( P<0.05). Compared with group V, the concentration of IL-10 in BALF and expression of Arg-1, p-JAK2 and p-STAT-3 were significantly increased, and the lung injury score, W/D ratio, concentrations of IL-6 and TNF-α in BALF and expression of iNOS were decreased in group P ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Parecoxib sodium promotes phenotypic transformation of alveolar macrophages from M1 subtype to M2 subtype and inhibits inflammatory responses, thus alleviating VALI, which may be related to activating JAK2/STAT-3 signaling pathway in mice.

Objective To evaluate the lung protective ventilation strategy on immune function in patients undergoing radical resection of lung cancer.Methods Sixty patients undergoing thoracoscopic radical resection of lung cancer, 47 males and 13 females, aged 35-64 years, BMI 18-29 kg/m2, falling into ASA physical statusⅠ orⅡ, were randomly divided into 2 groups with 30 cases in each:conventional mechanical ventilation (group C), protective mechanical ventilation group (group P).Volume-controlled ventilation was performed in the 2 groups.Protective mechanical ventilation mode was setted up as follows:tidal volume (VT) 8 ml/kg and respiratory rate (RR) 12-14 breaths/min during two-lung ventilation (TLV) ;VT 6 ml/kg, PEEP 5 cm H2O and RR 14-16 breaths/min during one-lung ventilation (OLV).Before induction of anesthesia (T0), at the end of surgery (T1), 24 hafter surgery (T2), 72 hafter surgery (T3), blood samples were taken from the central venous for determination of peripheral T lymphocyte subsets CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ and NK cell.The CD4+/CD8+ratio was also calculated.Results Compared with T0, the percentage of CD3+, CD4+, NK cell and the CD4+/CD8+ratio was significantly decreased at T1 and T2 in both groups (P<0.05).Compared with group P, the percentage of CD3+, CD4+, NK cell and the CD4+/CD8+ratio was significantly lower in the group C at T1 and T2 (P<0.05).Compared with T0, there was no significant difference at T3 with respect of the percentage of CD3+, CD4+, NK cell and the CD4+/CD8+ratio in the group P while those parameters still lower at T3 in the group C (P<0.05).Conclusion Perioperative use of lung protective ventilation strategy could not only alleviate the immune suppression but also make the immune function recover faster in patients undergoing thoracoscopic elective radical resection of lung cancer.

Objective To investigate the effect of flurbiprofcn axetil combined with lung-protective ventilation on postoperative cellular immune function in the patients undergoing thoracoscopic radical resection of lung cancer.Methods Eighty American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients of both sexes,with no abnormal lung function during the preoperative examination,aged 35-64 yr,with body mass index of 18-28 kg/m2,scheduled for elective thoracoscopic radical resection of lung cancer under general anesthesia,were divided into 4 groups (n =20 each) using a random number table method:conventional mechanical ventilation group (group C),flurbiprofen axetil combined with conventional mechanical ventilation group (group F+C),lung-protective ventilation group (group P) and flurbiprofen axetil combined with lung-protective ventilation group (group F+P).Flurbiprofen axetil 2 mg/kg was intravenously injected at 5 min before induction of anaesthesia in F+C and F+P groups.Patients were mechanically ventilated in volume-controlled mode in four groups.Conventional ventilator settings were adjusted with tidal volume (VT) 10 ml/kg and respiratory rate 10-20 breaths/min during two-lung ventilation and with VT 8 ml/kg and respiratory rate 13-16 breaths/min during one-lung ventilation.Lung-protective ventilator settings were adjusted with VT 8 ml/kg and respiratory rate 12-14 breaths/min during two-lung ventilation and with positive end-expiratory pressure 5 cmH2O,VT 6 ml/kg and respiratory rate 14-16 breaths/min during onelung ventilation.All patients received patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) at the end of surgery until 24 h after surgery.PCIA solution contained sufentanil 100 μg and ondansetron 16 mg in 100 ml of normal saline in group C and group P.PCIA solution contained sufentanil 100 μg,flurbiprofen axetil 2 mg/kg and ondansetron 16 mg in 100 ml of normal saline in group F+C and group F+P.The PCIA pump was set up with a 0.5 ml bolus dose,a 15-min lockout interval and background infusion at a rate of 2 ml/h.Visual analog scale score was maintained ≤3.When visual analog scale score ＞3,tramadol 2 mg/kg was intravenously injected.Before induction of anesthesia (T0),at the end of surgery (T1),at 24 and 72 h after surgery (T2,3) and at 1 week after surgery (T4),blood samples were collected from the central vein for measurement of the levels of T lymphocyte subsets CD3+,CD4+,CD8+ and NK cells.The CD4+/CD8+ ratio was calculated.Results Compared with the baseline at T0,the levels of CD3+,CD4+ and NK cells and CD4+/CD8+ratio were significantly decreased at T1-3 in C,F+C and P groups and at T1,2 in group F+P (P＜0.05).Compared with group C,the levels of CD3+,CD4+ and NK cells and CD4+/CD8+ratio were significantly increased at T1-3 in the other three groups (P＜0.05).Compared with group F+C or group P,the levels of CD3+,CD4+ and NK cells and CD4+/CD8+ratio were significantly increased at T1-3 in group F+ P (P＜0.05).Conclusion Flurbiprofen axetil combined with lung-protective ventilation improves postoperative cellular immune function and provides better efficacy than either alone in the patients undergoing thoracoscopic radical resection of lung cancer.

Objective To analyze the value of dynamic enhanced multi-slice spiral computed tomography (MSCT) combined with two-dimensional (2D) curved reconstruction technique in the differentiation of benign and malignant intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) of pancreas,and compare with magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography(MRCP).Methods MSCT and MRCP data of a total of 50 patients with IPMNs confirmed by pathology after surgery was retrospectively reviewed.The benign and malignant IPMNs were differentiated based on the presence of mural nodules,main pancreatic duct (MPD) ≥ 10 mm,septum thickness ≥2 mm,calcification,surrounding vascular infiltration,enlarged peripancreatic lymph nodules,distant metastatic lesions and maximal branch duct type IPMN lesions ≥30 mm shown in the images.The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy were calculated and the receiver-operating-characteristics (ROC) analysis were drawn.Area under the curve (AUC) was calculated.Results Mural nodules in MSCT had a sensitivity,specificity,and accuracy of 77.1％ (27/35),80.0％ (12/15) and 78.0％ (39/50) for diagnosing malignant IPMN,respectively;which in MRCP were 77.1％ (27/35),86.7％ (13/15),and 80.0％ (40/50) in comparison.When MPD diameter ≥10 mm was used for diagnose malignancy,MSCT and MRCP had the sensitivity,specificity,and accuracy of 96.3％ (26/27),81.8％ (9/11),92.1％ (35/38),and 96.3％ (26/27),90.9％ (10/11),94.7％ (36/38),respectively.For thick septum ≥2 mm,MSCT and MRCP had the sensitivity,specificity,and accuracy of 4.8.6％ (17/35),93.3％ (14/15),62.0％(31/50),and 51.4％ (18/35),93.3％ (14/15),64.0％ (32/50),respectively.Out of 50 cases,calcifications were detected on MSCT in 6 patients,and 5 of them were pathologically diagnosed as malignant IPMN.MRCP failed to identify calcifications in any of these lesions.For MSCT,the AUC of MPD diameter ≥ 10 mm,mural nodules and thick septum ≥ 2 mm were 0.973 (P =0.000),0.825 (P =0.002) and 0.704(P =0.051),respectively.For MRCP,the AUC of the three factors above were 0.976(P =0.000),0.825(P =0.002),0.722 (P =0.034),respectively.For the predicting of IPMN malignancy,MSCT had an overall sensitivity,specificity,and accuracy of 94.3％ (33/35),73.3％ (11/15) and 88.0％ (44/50),respectively;in comparison,MRCP had values of 94.3％ (33/35),80.0％ (12/15) and 90.0％ (45/50),respectively.Conclusions Presence of mural nodules,MPD ≥10 mm and thick septum ≥2 mm on MSCT combined with 2D curved reconstruction or MRCP have a high value for predicting the malignancy of IPMN.The values of MSCT and MRCP were basically consistent in the differentiation of benign and malignant IPMN.MSCT can be used as the preferred examination for diagnosing IPMN in the primary hospitals without MR equipment.

OBJECTIVE: Treating Class II subdivision malocclusion with asymmetry has been a challenge for orthodontists because of the complicated characteristics of asymmetry. This study aimed to explore the characteristics of dental and skeletal asymmetry in Class II subdivision malocclusion, and to assess the relationship between the condyle-glenoid fossa and first molar. METHODS: Cone-beam computed tomographic images of 32 patients with Class II subdivision malocclusion were three-dimensionally reconstructed using the Mimics software. Forty-five anatomic landmarks on the reconstructed structures were selected and 27 linear and angular measurements were performed. Paired-samples t-tests were used to compare the average differences between the Class I and Class II sides; Pearson correlation coefficient (r) was used for analyzing the linear association. RESULTS: The faciolingual crown angulation of the mandibular first molar (p < 0.05), sagittal position of the maxillary and mandibular first molars (p < 0.01), condylar head height (p < 0.01), condylar process height (p < 0.05), and angle of the posterior wall of the articular tubercle and coronal position of the glenoid fossa (p < 0.01) were significantly different between the two sides. The morphology and position of the condyle-glenoid fossa significantly correlated with the three-dimensional changes in the first molar. CONCLUSIONS: Asymmetry in the sagittal position of the maxillary and mandibular first molars between the two sides and significant lingual inclination of the mandibular first molar on the Class II side were the dental characteristics of Class II subdivision malocclusion. Condylar morphology and glenoid fossa position asymmetries were the major components of skeletal asymmetry and were well correlated with the three-dimensional position of the first molar.
