ObjectiveTo investigate the mechanism of Yangxin Tongmai Formula （养心通脉方， YTF） in trea-ting coronary heart disease with blood stasis syndrome based on DNA methylation. MethodsSeventy-two SD rats were randomly divided into a control group （n=12） and a modeling group （n=60）. The modeling group was subjected to a high-fat diet， intragastric administration of vitamin D3， and subcutaneous injection of isoprenaline to establish the rat model of coronary heart disease with blood stasis syndrome. Forty-one successfully modeled rats were then randomly allocated into model group， YTF low-， medium-， and high-dose groups， and the atorvastatin calcium group， with 8 rats in each group and 1 rat reserved. The YTF low-， medium-， and high-dose groups received YTF at 6， 12， and 18 g/（kg·d） by gavage， respectively. The atorvastatin calcium group received atorvastatin calcium tablets at 1.8 mg/（kg·d） by gavage. The control group and the model group received 0.9% sodium chloride injection at 4 ml/（kg·d） by gavage. All administrations were performed once daily for 3 weeks. Twenty-four hours after the last administration， serum lipid levels including total cholesterol （TC）， triglycerides （TG）， low-density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C）， and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol （HDL-C）， myocardial enzymes including cardiac troponin T （cTnT）， creatine kinase MB （CK-MB）， and lactate dehydrogenase （LDH）， and inflammatory factors including interleukin-1β （IL-1β） and interleukin-10 （IL-10） were detected by ELISA. Pathological changes in myocardial tissue were observed via HE staining. Whole blood DNA methylation sequencing was used to analyze differential methylation gene expression among the control group， model group， and YTF high-dose group. Western Blotting was used to verify the protein levels of the key genes and downstream signaling pathways. ResultsCompared to the control group， the model group showed increased levels of TC， TG， LDL-C， cTnT， CK-MB， LDH， and IL-1β， along with decreased levels of HDL-C and IL-10 （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared to the model group， all treatment groups exhibited decreased levels of TC， LDL-C， CK-MB， and LDH， along with increased IL-10 levels. Among these， the high-dose YTF group demonstrated superior efficacy in reducing cTnT levels compared to the other TCM groups （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. HE staining indicated that the YTF high-dose group ameliorated myocardial cell swelling， disordered arrangement， pyknosis， and disappearance of nuclei， thereby reducing myocardial cell damage. Whole blood DNA methylation sequencing identified 240 differentially methylated genes shared by the control group， model group， and YTF high-dose group， including 109 hypermethylated and 131 hypomethylated genes； eif2ak3 was identified as a key differentially methylated gene. Compared to the control group， the model group exhibited increased protein levels of eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2 alpha kinase 3 （eIf2ak3）， phosphorylated protein kinase RNA-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase （p-PERK）， activating transcription factor 4 （ATF4）， C/EBP homologous protein （CHOP）， and Bax， along with a decreased level of B-cell lymphoma-2 （Bcl-2） protein （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared to the model group， the YTF high-dose group showed decreased protein levels of eIf2ak3， p-PERK， ATF4， CHOP， and Bax， and an increased level of Bcl-2 protein （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. ConclusionYTF may regulate key differentially methylated genes such as eIf2ak3 and the PERK/ATF4/CHOP signaling pathway， thereby inhibiting endoplasmic reticulum stress， reducing myocardial cell apoptosis， and exerting therapeutic effects in coronary heart disease blood stasis syndrome.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of Yangxin Tongmai Formula （养心通脉方） by midnight-noon ebb-flow administration method for rat models of premature coronary heart disease （PCHD） with blood stasis syndrome， and to explore the possible mechanism of action from the perspective of DNA methylation differential gene expression. MethodsThere were 3 SD rats in each of the blank group， model group and Yangxin Tongmai Formula group， and the rats in the model group and Yangxin Tongmai Formula group were fed with high-fat chow plus vitamin D3 by gavage plus isoproterenol hydrochloride by subcutaneous injection to construct rat models of PCHD with blood stasis syndrome. After successful modelling， rats in Yangxin Tongmai Formula group were gavaged with 18 g/（kg‧d） of Yangxin Tongmai Formula， and rats in blank group and the model group were gavaged with 4 ml/（kg‧d） of 0.9% NaCl solution， and serum samples of rats in each group were collected for DNA methylation sequencing after 3 weeks to screen for the relevant DNA methylation differentiation genes. In addition， rats with successful modelling of PCHD with blood stasis were randomly divided into model group， Yangxin Tongmai Formula with midnight-noon ebb-flow administration method group ［18 g/（kg‧d） of Yangxin Tongmai Formula was gavaged twice in the heart channel period （12：00） and pericardium channel period （20：00）］， the Yangxin Tongmai Formula control group ［18 g/（kg‧d） of Yangxin Tongmai Formula was gavaged twice at 8：00 and 18：00］ and the Atorvastatin Calcium group ［atorvastatin calcium tablets solution 1.8 mg/（kg‧d） at the same intervention time as that in Yangxin Tongmai Formula control group］， and set up a blank group of 8 rats in each group. The model group and blank group were gavaged with 0.9% NaCl solution 4 ml/（kg‧d） for the same time as the Yangxin Tongmai Formula control group. After 3 weeks of gavage， the blood lipids ［including total cholesterol （TC）， low-density lipoprotein （LDL）， high-density lipoprotein （HDL）］ levels of rats in each group were detected； the HE staining of myocardial tissues and thoracic aorta was used to observe the pathomorphological changes； the levels of serum inflammation indexes ［tumour necrosis factor alpha （TNF-alpha）， lipopolysaccharide （LPS）， and interleukin 10 （IL-10）］ were detected； immunoprecipitation-realtime fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to detect the relative expression of cardiac tissue screening differential genes. ResultsThe genes screened for differentially methylated regions were calmodulin 2 （Calm2）， calcium voltage-gated channel subunit α1s （Cacna1s）， and phospholipase Cβ1 （Plcb1）. Compared with the blank group， rats in the model group showed elevated levels of TC， LDL， TNF-α and LPS， and decreased levels of HDL and IL-10 （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）； HE staining showed obvious swelling of myocardial fibres， accompanied by a large number of inflammatory cell infiltration， and thickening of the inner wall of the aortic vessels with internal wall damage， which was visible as a large number of lipid cholesterol crystals and obvious inflammatory cell infiltration. Compared with the model group， the TC， LDL， TNF-α and LPS contents of rats in the Yangxin Tongmai Formula with midnight-noon ebb-flow administration method group， the Yangxin Tongmai Formula control group， and the atorvastatin calcium group all reduced， and the contents of HDL and IL-10 all elevated （P＜0.05）， with the improvement of myocardial tissue damage and the reduction of inflammatory infiltration， and the improvement of the damage of the inner lining of the thoracic aorta and the reduction of lipid infiltration. Compared with Yangxin Tongmai Formula control group， LDL， TNF-α and LPS contents reduced， and IL-10 contents increased in the midnight-noon ebb-flow administration method group （P＜0.05）. Compared with the model group， the relative expression of Calm2 and Plcb1 genes decreased and the relative expression of Cacna1s gene increased in Yangxin Tongmai Formula control group and the midnight-noon ebb-flow administration method group （P＜0.05）； compared with the Yangxin Tongmai Formula control group， the relative expression of Calm2 gene decreased and the relative expression of Cacna1s gene increased in the midnight-noon ebb-flow administration method group （P＜0.05）. ConclusionThe intervention of Yangxin Tongmai Formula in the heart channel period （12：00） and pericardium channel period （20：00） was more effective in improving the blood lipid level， inhibiting inflammation， and improving myocardial tissue damage in rats of PCHD with blood stasis syndrome， and Calm2 and Cacna1s genes may be the key targets of Yangxin Tongmai Formula in intervening the blood stasis syndrome of PCHD.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of 4 novel inflammatory markers related to routine blood tests,namely neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR),red blood cell distribution width(RDW),hemoglobin-to-RDW ratio(HRR)and systemic immune-inflammation index(SII),in elderly patients with chronic cardiovascular disease(CVD)complicated with frailty.Methods Retrospectively analyze 110 patients with chronic stable CVD who were hospitalized in the cadre ward of cardiovascular medicine at the Air Force Characteristic Medical Center from January 2022 to June 2023.According to the assessment results of the Fried scale,they were divided into three groups:non-frailty group(Fried score=0,n=30),the pre-frailty group(Fried score 1 or 2,n=40)and frailty group(Fried score≥3,n=40).The differences in general information,the impairment rate of daily living activities,miniature nutritional assessment-short form(MNA-SF)scores,mini-mental state examination(MMSE)scores,and the indicators such as NLR,RDW,HRR,and SII among the three groups were compared.Spearman rank correlation was used to analyze the correlation between NLR,RDW,HRR,SII and frailty scores as well as each frailty indicator.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to identify the independent risk factors for frailty in elderly patients with chronic CVD,and the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to assess the clinical diagnostic value of NLR and HRR in elderly patients with chronic CVD complicated with frailty.Results Compared with non-frailty group and pre-frailty group,patients in frailty group were older,with higher impaired rates of daily living activities,NLR,RDW,and SII,and lower MNA-SF scores,MMSE scores,and HRR,and differences were statistically significant(P<0.05).Spearman rank correlation analysis showed that the frailty score was positively correlated with NLR(rs=0.354,P<0.001),and RDW(rs=0.448,P<0.001),negatively correlated with HRR(rs=-0.232,P=0.024),and had no significant correlation with SII(rs=0.144,P=0.167).Further analysis of the correlation between the above novel inflammatory markers and the 5 components of frailty showed that NLR was positively correlated with fatigue(rs=0.228,P=0.017),slowed walking speed(rs=0.299,P<0.001),and low physical function(rs=0.319,P<0.001);RDW was positively correlated with decreased grip strength(rs=0.321,P<0.001),slowed walking speed(rs=0.422,P<0.001),and low physical function(rs=0.246,P=0.001);and HRR was negatively correlated with slowed walking speed(rs=-0.230,P=0.025),and low physical function(rs=-0.299,P=0.003).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that MNA-SF score(OR=0.577,95%CI 0.342-0.973)was an independent protective factor for pre-frailty in elderly patients with chronic CVD(P<0.05);NLR(OR=7.866,95%CI 1.101-56.185)was an independent risk factor for frailty,while HRR(OR=0.344,95%CI 0.120-0.983)and MNA-SF score(OR=0.292,95%CI 0.146-0.580)were independent protective factors for frailty in elderly CVD patients(P<0.05).The area under the ROC curve of NLR and HRR for diagnosing frailty in elderly patients with chronic CVD were 0.778 and 0.749,respectively.Conclusion NLR and HRR have high clinical diagnostic value for frailty in elderly patients with chronic CVD,and are expected to become effective inflammatory markers for screening elderly patients with chronic CVD complicated with frailty.

Objective:To explore the efficacy of non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) of fetal free DNA in maternal peripheral blood in fetuses with increased nuchal translucency (NT).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 1 184 singleton pregnant women that underwent chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) at Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, Nanjing University Medical School from June 2014 to December 2022 due to fetal increased NT (≥3.0 mm). These subjects were categorized based on whether the increased NT was accompanied by other high-risk factors into isolated increased NT without advanced maternal age (further subdivided into 3.0 mm≤NT<3.5 mm, 3.5 mm≤NT<4.0 mm, and NT≥4.0 mm subgroups), isolated increased NT with advanced maternal age, increased NT with nasal bone abnormalities, increased NT with other soft markers, and increased NT with structural abnormalities groups. Assuming the sensitivity and specificity of NIPT and expanded NIPT at this center were both 100%, genomic abnormalities outside the detection range of NIPT or expanded NIPT were termed as residual risk of NIPT or expanded NIPT. Chi-square test and Bonferroni correction were used to compare the residual risks of NIPT and expanded NIPT among the three subgroups of isolated increased NT without advanced maternal age group. Results:(1) In the group of isolated increased NT without advanced maternal age: For the 3.0 mm≤NT<3.5 mm subgroup (329 cases), 19 abnormalities were detected by CMA [12 cases of chromosome aneuploidy, seven cases of pathogenic copy number variation (pCNV)], with residual risks of NIPT and expanded NIPT both at 2.1% (7/329). For the 3.5 mm≤NT<4.0 mm subgroup (173 cases), 29 abnormalities were detected by CMA (17 cases of chromosome aneuploidy, nine cases of pCNV, three cases of chromosome unbalanced translocation), with residual risks of NIPT at 8.1% (14/173) and expanded NIPT at 7.5% (13/173). For the NT≥4.0 mm subgroup (270 cases), CMA detected abnormalities in 70 cases (50 cases of chromosome aneuploidy, 16 cases of pCNV, three cases of unbalanced translocations, and one case of sex chromosome abnormality combined with pCNV). The residual risk of NIPT was 12.2% (33/270), and the residual risk of expanded NIPT was 7.0% (19/270). The residual risks of NIPT and expanded NIPT in the 3.0 mm≤NT<3.5 mm subgroup were lower than those in the 3.5 mm≤NT<4.0 mm and NT≥4.0 mm subgroups (Bonferroni correction, all P<0.017). (2) In the group of 92 cases with isolated increased NT and advanced maternal age, CMA detected abnormalities in 36 cases (29 cases of chromosome aneuploidy, five cases of pCNV, one case of trisomy 21 combined with sex chromosome abnormality, and one case of trisomy 18 combined with sex chromosome abnormality). The residual risk of NIPT was 7.6% (7/92), and that of expanded NIPT was 5.4% (5/92). (3) In the group of 49 cases with increased NT combined with nasal bone abnormalities, CMA detected abnormalities in 24 cases (23 cases of chromosome aneuploidy and one case of pCNV). The residual risks of NIPT and expanded NIPT were both 2.0% (1/49). (4) In the group of 26 cases with increased NT combined with other soft markers, CMA detected abnormalities in nine cases (six cases of chromosome aneuploidy, one case of pCNV, and two cases of chromosome unbalanced translocations). The residual risks of NIPT and expanded NIPT were both 11.5% (3/26). (5) In the group of 245 cases with increased NT combined with structural abnormalities, CMA detected abnormalities in 121 cases (107 cases of chromosome aneuploidy, seven cases of pCNV, four cases of chromosome unbalanced translocations, one case of trisomy 21 combined with trisomy 20, and two cases of trisomy 18 combined with sex chromosome abnormalities). The residual risk of NIPT was 16.7% (41/245), and that of expanded NIPT was 4.1% (10/245). Conclusions:For isolated NT≥3.5 mm or NT≥3.0 mm combined with other high-risk factors, chorionic villus sampling in early pregnancy can be recommended, advancing the timing of prenatal diagnosis from the second trimester to the first trimester. For fetuses with isolated 3.0 mm≤NT<3.5 mm, the 2.1% residual risk of chromosomal abnormalities should be fully informed during counseling, even if the risk of NIPT is low.

Objective To explore the safety and feasibility of mechanical thrombectomy as the first-line endovascular strategy in patients with non-acute symptomatic long-segment internal carotid artery occlusion(ICAO)undergoing revascularization.Methods This study retrospectively and consecutively enrolled non-acute symptomatic long-segment ICAO patients treated in the Department of Neurology,First Hospital of Jilin University,between January 2019 and August 2023,with mechanical thrombectomy as the preferred endovascular modality.Baseline and clinical data were collected,including sex,age,stroke-related risk factors(hypertension,diabetes,dyslipidemia,coronary artery disease,prior stroke,smoking and alcohol use history),admission National Institutes of Health stroke scale(NIHSS)score,pre-operative modified Rankin scale(mRS)score,time from last symptom onset to femoral puncture,time from imaging confirmation to femoral puncture,high-resolution MRI,right-sided ICAO,stump morphology(absent,tapered,flat/blunt,irregular),distal backfilling patterns(above ophthalmic segment,cavernous/clinoid segment,below cavernous segment),pathogenesis(atherosclerosis,dissection),types of anesthesia(local,general),procedure time(time frame from femoral puncture to recanalization or final angiography),site of the original occlusion in successfully recanalized cases,surgical techniques(aspiration+balloon angioplasty,aspiration+balloon angioplasty+stent-retriever thrombectomy,aspiration+balloon angioplasty+stent placement,aspiration+balloon angioplasty+stent-retriever thrombectomy+stent placement),stent placement(yes/no),number of stents implanted,and number of cases with retrieved thrombus,observed indicators.Observed indicators including ratio of technical successful recanalization(immediately post-procedure most severely stenosed site stenosis rate＜50%,expanded thrombolysis in cerebral infarction[eTICI]grade≥2c),intraoperative complications(distal embolization,symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage,arterial perforation)rate,perioperative mortality rate,30-day stroke recurrence,and 90-day mRS score.Compare the baseline data,clinical data and observational indicators of the patients with successful and unsuccessful recanalization.Base on the original occlusion site,successfully recanalized patients were subclassified into isolated extracranial,isolated intracranial,and tandem lesions patients,and their baseline characteristics and observation indicators were compared.Results(1)A total of 65 patients were enrolled(57 men,8 women;age 39-80 years;median 59[52,65]years)in this study.Technical success was achieved in 52cases(80%).Perioperative complications occurred in 4 patients(6.2%),with 3 distal embolization cases(4.6%),1(1.5%)developed symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage,and no arterial perforations were observed.There was no perioperative mortality.The 30-day stroke recurrence rate was 7.7%(5/65).90-day mRS scores ranged from 0 to 4,with a median of 1.0(0.0,1.5).(2)Baseline and clinical characteristics as well as outcome indicators did not differ significantly between patients with successful versus unsuccessful recanalization in the cohort undergoing mechanical thrombectomy for non-acute symptomatic long-segment intracranial carotid artery occlusion(all P＞0.05).(3)Among successfully recanalized patients,17(32.7%)had isolated extracranial lesions,18(34.6%)had isolated intracranial lesions,and 17(32.7%)had tandem lesions.All cases in the extracranial lesions group had original lesion site at the origin of internal carotid artery(C1,17/17).The intracranial group most often had orginal lesion sites at the C4 segment(9/18),whereas tandem lesions predominantly involved C1 plus C4-C5(16/17).Among the three groups,patients with isolated intracranial lesions were younger(57[48,61]years vs.60[52,64],63[58,69]years,P=0.050),and had a lower proportion of right-sided ICAO(4/18 vs.11/17 vs.11/17,P=0.032),while patients with tandem lesions required a greater number of stents(2.0[1.0,2.0]vs.1.0[1.0,1.5],1.0[0.8,2.0],P=0.013).Significant differences were observed in the proportion of patients with retrieved thrombus decreased progressively from patients with isolated extracranial,isolated intracranial to tandem lesions(17/17 vs.17/18 vs.12/17,P=0.024).No significant differences were observed among lesion-site groups with respect to medical history,stump morphology,distal retrograde flow,procedural technique,procedure duration,anesthesia method,or outcome indicators(all P＞0.05).Conclusions This study suggested that utilizing mechanical thrombectomy as the first-line endovascular therapy for non-acute symptomatic long-segment ICAO is safe and feasible.The original occlusive sites of non-acute symptomatic long-segment ICAO predominantly involve the cervical origin and the cavernous segment of the internal carotid artery.The conclusions of this study require further validation.

Objective To explore the anesthetic effects of remimazolam combined with nalbuphine on patients undergoing painless gastroscopy.Methods A total of 120 patients who underwent painless gastroscopy in Handan Central Hospital from August 2019 to May 2021 were selected and randomly divided into the observation group(60 cases)and the control group(60 cases).Patients in the observation group anesthetized with remimazolam and nalbuphine,while patients in the control group anesthetized with propofol and alfentanil.The vital signs,sedative effect,recovery quality,cognitive function,and adverse reactions of patients were compared between the two groups.Results The heart rate(HR),respiratory rate(RR),and the level of pulse oxygen saturation(SpO2)of patients in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).Five minutes after the examination,the Narcotrend score of patients in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).The time from the last administration to awakening,the time from gastroscopy removal to awakening,and the time of leaving the anesthesia recovery room of patients in the observation group were significantly shorter than those in the control group(P<0.05).Five minutes after the examination,the score of the mini-mental state examination(MMSE)of patients in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05),while the incidence of adverse reactions was significantly lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion The application of remimazolam combined with nalbuphine anesthesia in painless gastroscopy has a relatively ideal effect,which can effectively reduce the adverse reactions of patients and promote rapid postoperative recovery.

OBJECTIVE To explore the intervention mechanism of Shangke Lengtongtie on cold hyperalgesia in KOA mice based on the HMGB1/CXCL12/CXCR4 signaling axis.METHODS Monosodium iodoacetate(MIA)was used for the intra-articular injec-tion into the knee joint to establish mice model of knee osteoarthritis(KOA).Peripheral blood monocytes were extracted from mice,cultured,and then reinfused into the tail vein of the mice.Subsequently,in vivo animal imaging was used to observe the recruitment sites of these monocytes.The cold hyperalgesia threshold was measured at various time points in each group of mice.Hematoxylin and eosin(HE)staining was used to evaluate the level of synovial pathological changes.ELISA was employed to detect the expression of in-flammatory factors IL-1β,TNF-α,and pain mediators CGRP and Substance P in mouse serum.Western blot and qPCR methods were used to detect the protein and gene expression of cold hyperalgesia-related indicators such as TRPA1,TRPM8,HMGB1,CXCL12,CXCR4,Collagen Ⅰ,and Netrin-1 in synovial tissue,as well as DCC in dorsal root ganglia(DRG)tissue.RESULTS In vivo ima-ging showed that after the monocytes were reinfused into KOA mice,they were recruited to the knee joint area,with the HMGB1 group exhibiting a greater recruitment of circulating monocytes at the knee joint.Additionally,compared to the control group,the KOA group and HMGB1 group showed inflammatory pathological changes in the synovium,increased expression of serum inflammatory factors and pain mediators,reduced cold hyperalgesia threshold,and upregulated protein and gene expression of cold hyperalgesia-related indica-tors in synovial and DRG tissues.The changes were more significant in the HMGB1 group compared to the KOA group(P<0.05).Af-ter treatment with Shangke Lengtongtie or GL intervention,synovial inflammation was alleviated,serum inflammatory factors and pain mediators decreased,cold hyperalgesia threshold increased,and the upregulation of cold hyperalgesia-related indicator protein and gene expression levels was significantly reversed(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Shangke Lengtongtie exerts a beneficial effect on the mitigation of synovitis and cold hyperalgesia in KOA mice,a therapeutic mechanism that possibly mediated through the inhibition of the HMGB1/CXCL12/CXCR4 signaling axis.

The preferred treatment for adrenal functional tumors is laparoscopic surgical resection.

This report presents the successful diagnosis and treatment experience of 4 aldosterone-producing adenomas and 1 cortisol-secreting adenoma treated with a combined cold and hot ablation system at Xi’an Daxing Hospital from Dec. 2023 to Dec. 2024, providing a new treatment approach for clinical exploration.

Objective:To investigate the effects of different plasma/red blood cell suspension ratios on prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), and fibrinogen (Fb) level in patients with postpartum hemorrhage, providing evidence for rational blood transfusion in clinical practice.Methods:This study used a retrospective design. The clinical data of 128 patients with postpartum hemorrhage admitted to Jinan Central Hospital from January 2020 to December 2023 were analyzed. The patients were divided into a control group and an observation group, with 64 patients in each group, based on different transfusion protocols. The control group received transfusion therapy using a conventional plasma/red blood cell suspension ratio, while the observation group was treated with an optimized ratio scheme. The PT, APTT, and Fb levels were compared between the two groups before and after blood transfusion. The amount of bleeding, the volume of blood transfused, and the incidence of complications were recorded and compared between the two groups.Results:Before transfusion, there were no statistically significant differences in PT, APTT, or Fb levels between the two groups (all P>0.05). After transfusion, PT and APTT in the observation group were (11.53 ± 1.08) seconds and (32.00 ± 3.00) seconds, respectively, which were significantly shorter than those in the control group [(13.02 ± 1.57) seconds, (35.00 ± 4.00) seconds, t = 8.01, 6.01, both P<0.001]. Fb levels in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group [(2.24 ± 0.37) g/L vs. (1.83 ± 0.47) g/L, t = 5.48, P<0.001]. The amount of bleeding and the volume of red blood cell suspension transfused in the observation group were (800 ± 150) mL and (600 ± 80) mL, respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the control group [ (1 200 ± 200) mL, (800 ± 100) mL, t = 12.01, 10.01, both P<0.001]. There was no statistically significant difference in the volume of blood transfused between the two groups ( t = 0.00, P = 1.000). The incidence of complications in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [10.94% (7/64) vs. 20.31% (13/64), χ2 = 4.60, P = 0.032]. Conclusions:The optimized plasma/red blood cell suspension ratio can effectively improve the coagulation function of patients with postpartum hemorrhage, reduce bleeding and transfusion-related complications.

Objective:To investigate the endoscopic and pathological features and the independent risk factors for early esophageal cancer combined with multiple primary cancer.Methods:Endoscopic and pathological features of 324 patients diagnosed as having early esophageal cancer from January 2013 to January 2022 in Beijing Friendship Hospital were retrospectively collected. Independent risk factors for early esophageal cancer combined with multiple primary cancer were selected by multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results:Among the 324 patients with early esophageal cancer, 47 (14.51%) patients (29 metachronous and 18 synchronous) had multiple primary cancer. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that alcohol drinking ≥5 standard drinks/day ( OR=6.23, 95% CI: 2.49-15.57, P<0.001), submucosal layer invasion ( OR=2.80, 95% CI:1.07-7.30, P=0.036), lesion location at lower esophagus ( OR=4.18, 95% CI: 1.98-8.97, P<0.001) and multiple lesions in esophagus ( OR=3.30, 95% CI:1.57-6.92, P=0.002) were independent risk factors for early esophageal cancer combined with multiple primary cancer. Conclusion:Alcohol drinking ≥5 standard drinks/day, submucosal layer invasion, lower lesions location, and multiple lesions in the esophagus are independent risk factors that are more likely to develop multiple primary cancer in patients with early esophageal cancer. It is recommended to prioritize monitoring patients with these factors, and enhance endoscopic follow-up and assessment.
