To guide transfusion practice in critically ill children who often need plasma and platelet transfusions, the Transfusion and Anemia Expertise Initiative-Control/Avoidance of Bleeding (TAXI-CAB) developed Recommendations and Expert Consensus for Plasma and Platelet Transfusion Practice in Critically Ill Children. This guideline addresses 53 recommendations related to plasma and platelet transfusion in critically ill children with 8 kinds of diseases, laboratory testing, selection/treatment of plasma and platelet components, and research priorities. This paper introduces the specific methods and results of the recommendation formation of the guideline.

Objective:To investigate the knowledge of Sixth Chinese national consensus report on the management of Helicobacter pylori infection ( treatment excluded) (hereinafter referred to as sixth national consensus) and 2022 Chinese national clinical practice guideline on Helicobacter pylori eradication treatment (hereinafter referred to as the guideline)among medical staff from general hospitals in Hainan. Methods:From February 20 to May 7, 2023, a questionnaire survey on the diagnosis and treatment of Helicobacter pylori ( H. pylori) infection was conducted among 1 463 medical staff from 15 general hospitals in Hainan Province. The questionnaire was drawn up according to the sixth national consensus and the guideline, covering knowledge of 6 sections, induding H. pylori related diseases, detection of H. pylori, eradication, prevention and influence factors of eradication of H. pylori, etc. Chi-square test was used for statistical analysis. Results:A total of 1 463 valid questionnaires were collected with the effective responsive rate of 100.00%.The 1 463 subjects included 225 gastroenterologists and 1 238 other medical staff(including 503 physicians from other departments, 264 surgeons and 471 medical technologists and pharmacists). About 78.67%(177/225)of gastroenterologists agreed that the overall infection rate of H. pylori in China was more than 20%, the awareness rate was higher than that of other medical staff (physicians from other departments 65.41%(329/503), surgeons 61.74%(163/264), medical technologists and pharmacists 60.30%(284/471); the following datas were sorted by this position), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=30.97, P<0.001). About 51.11%(115/225) of gastroenterologists considered that H. pylori serological antibody test could not be used as a diagnostic method for current infection, the awareness rate was higher than that of other medical staff(22.07%(111/503), 14.02%(37/264), 12.31%(58/471)), and the difference was statistically significant( χ2 =152.66, P<0.001). Proton pump inhibitor and potassium-competitive acid blocker should be discontinued for 2 weeks, and antibiotics and bismuth should be discontinued for 4 weeks before urea breath test, and the awareness rates of gastroenterologists were higher than those of other medical staff (38.67%(87/225) vs. 23.26%(117/503), 19.70%(52/264), 18.47%(87/471); 60.89%(137/225) vs. 26.64%(134/503), 25.76%(68/264), 23.78%(112/471)), and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2 =133.70 and 165.51, both P<0.001). For refractory H. pylori infection, 98.67%(222/225)of gastroenterologists agreed with the individualized diagnosis and treatment of H. pylori infection should be guided by bacterial culture, antibiotic susceptibility test or drug resistance gene test, and the awareness rate was higher than that of other medical staff (91.85%(462/503), 93.56%(247/264), 93.21%(439/471)), and the difference was statistically significant( χ2=20.55, P=0.002). About 70.67% (159/225) of gastroenterologists recommended a bismuth containing quadruple regimen, 80.44% (181/225) supported a 10 to 14 day H. pylori eradication course, and the awareness rates were higher than other medical staff (46.92%(236/503), 33.33%(88/264), 32.91%(155/471); 67.20%(338/503), 59.09%(156/264), 53.93%(254/471)), and the differences were statistically significant ( χ2=111.25 and 59.99, both P<0.001). The understanding rates of the sixth national consensus and the guideline in gastroenterologists was 85.33% (192/225), which was higher than that of other medical staff (64.21%(323/503), 66.67%(176/264), 57.96%(273/471)), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=85.47, P<0.001). Conclusions:Gastroenterologists from general hospitals in Hainan Province have a better understanding of the sixth national consensus and the guideline than other medical staff. However, there is still a lack of deep understanding of the sixth national consensus and the guideline, and it is necessary to further strengthen the learning and application of the sixth national consensus and the guideline.

Purpose: Protective ileostomy and colostomy are performed in patients undergoing low anterior resection with a high leakage risk. We aimed to compare surgical, medical, and daily care complications between these 2 ostomies in order to make individual choice. Methods: Patients who underwent low anterior resection for rectal tumors with protective stomas between January 2011 and September 2018 were enrolled. Stoma-related complications were prospectively recorded by wound, ostomy, and continence nurses. The cancer stage and treatment data were obtained from the Taiwan Cancer Database of our Big Data Center. Other demographic data were collected retrospectively from medical notes. The complications after stoma creation and after the stoma reversal were compared. Results: There were 176 patients with protective colostomy and 234 with protective ileostomy. Protective ileostomy had higher proportions of high output from the stoma for 2 consecutive days than protective colostomy (11.1% vs. 0%, P<0.001). Protective colostomy resulted in more stoma retraction than protective ileostomy (21.6% vs. 9.4%, P=0.001). Female, open operation, ileostomy, and carrying stoma more than 4 months were also significantly associated with a higher risk of stoma-related complications during diversion. For stoma retraction, the multivariate analysis revealed that female (odds ratio [OR], 4.00; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.13–7.69; P<0.001) and long diversion duration (≥4 months; OR, 2.33; 95% CI, 1.22–4.43; P=0.010) were independent risk factors, but ileostomy was an independent favorable factor (OR, 0.40; 95% CI, 0.22–0.72; P=0.003). The incidence of complication after stoma reversal did not differ between colostomy group and ileostomy group (24.3% vs. 20.9%, P=0.542). Conclusion We suggest avoiding colostomy in patients who are female and potential prolonged diversion when stoma retraction is a concern. Otherwise, ileostomy should be avoided for patients with impaired renal function. Wise selection and flexibility are more important than using one type of stoma routinely.

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.

ObjectiveTo explore the recognition of oral breath odor map of chronic atrophic gastritis （CAG） patients with dampness-heat syndrome by electronic nose technique. MethodsPatients with chronic gastritis were recruited， including 60 cases in CAG group of dampness-heat syndrome， 50 cases in CAG group of non-dampness-heat syndrome， 60 cases in chronic non-atrophic gastritis （CNAG） group of dampness-heat syndrome， 50 cases in CNAG group of non-dampness-heat syndrome， and 30 cases of healthy volunteers were selected to set up the health control group. Ten cases in the CAG dampness-heat group and 50 cases in the CAG non-dampness-heat group were selected to form the CAG group， and 10 cases in CNAG dampness-heat group and 50 cases in CNAG non-dampness-heat group were selected to form the CNAG group. In addition to the health control group， the remaining patients were tested for Helicobacter pylori （Hp）； the electronic nose （GISXM-MQWA01） was used to collect the oral breath odor of all the participants to draw the mapping， and amplitudes and slopes of each curve （including curves A， B， C， D， E， F， G， H， I， J） of the oral odor mapping of health control group， CAG group， CNAG group， CAG dampness-heat group， CAG non-dampness-heat group， and CNAG dampness-heat group was compared. The modified transformer model was used to classify the odor mapping characteristics， and the confusion matrix method was used to evaluate the classification model， with metrics including accuracy and area under ROC curve （AUC）. ResultsThe Hp positivity rate in CAG dampness-heat group was 80.00% （48/60）， CAG non-dampness-heat group was 62.00% （31/50）， CNAG dampness-heat group was 46.67% （28/60）， and CNAG non-dampness-heat group was 42.00% （21/50）； the difference in Hp positivity rate between CAG dampness-heat group and CAG non-dampness-heat group was statistically significant （P＜0.05）. The amplitudes of response curves A， B， C， D， F， G， and I， and slopes of A and F in the odor mapping of the CAG group were lower than those in health control group， while the amplitude and slope of curve E were higher than those in the health control group and CNAG group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）； The amplitude of the response curves A， B， C， D， F， G， and I， and slopes of A， D， and F in the CNAG group were lower than those in the health control group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）.

ConclusionElectronic nose technology can make a more accurate identification of the oral breath odor in CAG patients with dampness-heat syndrome， with a decrease in the amplitude of the curve F and an increase in the amplitude of the curve H and in the slopes of the curves A， H， and J may as the characteristics of their odor mapping.

BACKGROUND:Minipigs are often used in research fields such as skin injury,vascular trauma and cosmetic medicine because they are highly similar to human beings in terms of skin tissue structure and cardiovascular system.Hydrogel as a wound repair drug possesses a variety of excellent physicochemical properties such as strong water retention and adhesion,which can provide isolation moisturization and drug release for wounds. OBJECTIVE:To summarize and conclude the progress of the application of trauma models for different experimental purposes of hydrogel therapy for minipigs,to reveal the development status of various types of minipig trauma models,to analyze the deficiencies of minipig trauma models at the present stage. METHODS:The relevant articles published in Web of Science database and CNKI database from the establishment of each database to 2023 were checked,using"piglet,miniature pig,minipig,miniature pig;gel,hydrogel;trauma,injury,wound,lesion,incision"as Chinese search terms and"Miniature Swine,Miniature pig,minipig;gel,hydrogel;injury,wound,lesion,incision"as English search terms.A total of 438 Chinese and English documents were retrieved,and 59 documents were included in the study through the inclusion and exclusion criteria. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)At present,the main models used clinically for trauma repair are large animal species(dogs and pigs),rabbits,and rodents(rats and mice).Because the skin structure of the minipig is more like that of humans,the minipig is the most ideal animal model for trauma repair.(2)In the in-vitro skin injury model,skin defect model is the basic wound model,which can be divided into full skin defect model and medium-thickness skin defect model according to the depth of the wound defect.Burn wound model and infected wound model are multidimensional models with hot metal scald and bacterial culture imposed on the basis of the skin defect model,which have the advantages of high safety coefficient and low operation difficulty.(3)In the in-vivo trauma repair model,mini-pigs are used as esophageal cricothyrotomy model which is more in line with the pathological state of clinical diseases.Mini-pigs are used in the gastric perforation and vascular hemostasis model,which can visually demonstrate the stronger organ adhesion,hemostatic properties and tissue regeneration-promoting effects of the hydrogel.(4)The specific parts of the pig also has the corresponding mode of use:pig ear is usually used to evaluate the hydrogel drug delayed-release effect.Porcine cellular proteins and pig skin collagen are mostly used to prepare composite hydrogels of tissue origin.

ObjectiveTo investigate the role and possible mechanism of action of rhubarb decoction （RD） retention enema in improving inflammatory damage of brain tissue in a rat model of mild hepatic encephalopathy （MHE）. MethodsA total of 60 male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into blank group （CON group with 6 rats） and chronic liver cirrhosis modeling group with 54 rats using the complete randomization method. After 12 weeks， 40 rats with successful modeling which were confirmed to meet the requirements for MHE model by the Morris water maze test were randomly divided into model group （MOD group）， lactulose group （LT group）， low-dose RD group （RD1 group）， middle-dose RD group （RD2 group）， and high-dose RD group （RD3 group）， with 8 rats in each group. The rats in the CON group and the MOD group were given retention enema with 2 mL of normal saline once a day； the rats in the LT group were given retention enema with 2 mL of lactulose at a dose of 22.5% once a day； the rats in the RD1， RD2， and RD3 groups were given retention enema with 2 mL RD at a dose of 2.5， 5.0， and 7.5 g/kg， respectively， once a day. After 10 days of treatment， the Morris water maze test was performed to analyze the spatial learning and memory abilities of rats. The rats were analyzed from the following aspects： behavioral status； the serum levels of alanine aminotransferase （ALT）， aspartate aminotransferase （AST）， interleukin-1β （IL-1β）， interleukin-6 （IL-6）， and tumor necrosis factor-α （TNF-α） and the level of blood ammonia； pathological changes of liver tissue and brain tissue； the mRNA and protein expression levels of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase （PI3K）， protein kinase B （AKT）， and mammalian target of rapamycin （mTOR） in brain tissue. A one-way analysis of variance was used for comparison of continuous data between multiple groups， and the least significant difference t-test was used for further comparison between two groups. ResultsCompared with the MOD group， the RD1， RD2， and RD3 groups had a significantly shorter escape latency （all P<0.01）， significant reductions in the levels of ALT， AST， IL-1β， IL-6， TNF-α， and blood ammonia （all P<0.05）， significant alleviation of the degeneration， necrosis， and inflammation of hepatocytes and brain cells， and significant reductions in the mRNA and protein expression levels of PI3K， AKT， and mTOR in brain tissue （all P<0.05）， and the RD3 group had a better treatment outcome than the RD1 and RD2 groups. ConclusionRetention enema with RD can improve cognitive function and inflammatory damage of brain tissue in MHE rats， possibly by regulating the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway.
