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 verify the feasibility and accuracy of the transanal multipoint full-layer puncture biopsy (TMFP) technique in determining the residual status of cancer foci after neoadjuvant therapy (nCRT) in rectal cancer. Methods: Between April 2020 and November 2022, a total of 78 patients from the Beijing Chaoyang Hospital of Capital Medical University, the Beijing Friendship Hospital of Capital Medical University, the Qilu Hospital of Shandong University, the Zhongnan Hospital of Wuhan University with advanced rectal cancer received TMFP after nCRT participated in this prospective multicenter trial. There were 53 males and 25 females, aged (M(IQR)) 61 (13) years (range: 35 to 77 years). The tumor distance from the anal verge was 5 (3) cm (range: 2 to 10 cm). The waiting time between nCRT and TMFP was 73 (26) days (range: 33 to 330 days). 13-point transanal puncture was performed with a 16 G tissue biopsy needle with the residual lesion as the center. The specimens were submitted for independent examination and the complications of the puncture were recorded. The consistency of TMFP and radical operation specimen was compared. The consistency of TMPF with clinical remission rates for the diagnosis of complete pathological remission was compared by sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, positive predictive value and accuracy. Statistical analysis between groups was performed using the χ2 analysis, and a paired χ2 test was used to compare diagnostic validity. Results: Before TMFP, clinical complete response (cCR) was evaluated in 27 cases. Thirty-six cases received in vivo puncture, the number of punctures in each patient was 13 (8) (range: 4 to 20), 24 cases of tumor residue were found in the puncture specimens. The sensitivity to judgment (100% vs. 60%, χ2=17.500, P<0.01) and accuracy (88.5% vs. 74.4%, χ2=5.125, P=0.024) of TMFP for the pathologic complete response (pCR) were significantly higher than those of cCR. Implement TMFP based on cCR judgment, the accuracy increased from 74.4% to 92.6% (χ2=4.026, P=0.045). The accuracy of the in vivo puncture was 94.4%, which was 83.3% of the in vitro puncture (χ2=1.382, P=0.240). Overall, the accuracy of TMFP improved gradually with an increasing number of cases (χ2=7.112, P=0.029). Conclusion: TMFP is safe and feasible, which improves the sensitivity and accuracy of rectal cancer pCR determination after nCRT, provides a pathological basis for cCR determination, and contributes to the safe development of the watch and wait policy.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the effect of interleukin-6 (IL-6) on the chemosensitivity of drug-resistant multiple myeloma (MM) cell lines to bortezomib (BTZ) and its mechanism.
METHODS:
Peripheral blood samples were collected from patients with BTZ-resistant MM before and after treatment. Human MM cell lines KM3 and KM3/BTZ were cultured in vitro. ELISA was used to detect the content of IL-6 in peripheral blood of MM patients, KM3 and KM3/BTZ cells. CCK-8 assay was used to detect the drug sensitivity of KM3 and KM3 / BTZ cells to BTZ. KM3 / BTZ cells were divided into KM3/BTZ control group (normal culture for 48 h), IL-6 neutralizing antibody Anti-IL-6 group (500 ng/ml Anti-IL-6 treated for 48 h), BTZ group (300 ng/ml BTZ treated for 48 h), BTZ + Anti-IL-6 group (300 ng/ml BTZ and 500 ng/ml Anti-IL-6 treated for 48 h). The proliferation activity of KM3 / BTZ cells was detected by CCK-8 assay. The cell cycle distribution of KM3/BTZ cells was detected by flow cytometry. The apoptosis of KM3/BTZ cells was detected by Annexin V-FITC/PI double staining. The mRNA expression levels of IL-6, Notch1, signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) in KM3/BTZ cells were detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR), and the protein expression levels of IL-6, Notch1, STAT3 in KM3/BTZ cells were detected by Western blot.
RESULTS:
The level of IL-6 in peripheral blood of patients with BTZ-resistant MM after treatment was significantly higher than that before treatment (P<0.05). The level of IL-6 in KM3/BTZ cells was significantly higher than that in KM3 cells (P<0.05). The sensitivity of KM3/BTZ cells to BTZ was significantly lower than that of KM3 cells (P<0.05), and the resistance index (RI) was 19.62. Anti-IL-6 and BTZ could inhibit the proliferation of KM3 / BTZ cells, block cell cycle, and induce apoptosis (P<0.05). Compared with single drug treatment, the combined effect of Anti-IL-6 and BTZ was more obvious on KM3/BTZ cells (P<0.05), and significantly down regulated the mRNA and protein expression of IL-6, Notch1 and STAT3 in KM3/BTZ cells (P<0.05).
CONCLUSION
Antagonizing IL-6 can increase the chemosensitivity of MM cells to BTZ, and IL-6 may reduce the sensitivity of MM cells to BTZ through STAT3/Notch signaling pathway.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the effect of interference of P2X4 receptor expression in tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) on invasion and migration of glioma cells.
METHODS:
C57BL/6 mouse models bearing gliomas in the caudate nucleus were examined for glioma pathology with HE staining and expressions of Iba-1 and P2X4 receptor with immunofluorescence assay. RAW264.7 cells were induced into TAMs using conditioned medium from GL261 cells, and the changes in mRNA expressions of macrophage polarization-related markers and the mRNA and protein expressions of P2X4 receptor were detected with RT-qPCR and Western blotting. The effect of siRNA-mediated P2X4 interference on IL-1β and IL-18 mRNA and protein expressions in the TAMs was detected with RT-qPCR and Western blotting. GL261 cells were cultured in the conditioned medium from the transfected TAMs, and the invasion and migration abilities of the cells were assessed with Transwell invasion and migration experiment.
RESULTS:
The glioma tissues from the tumor-bearing mice showed a significantly greater number of Iba-1-positive cells, where an obviously increased P2X4 receptor expression was detected (P=0.001), than the brain tissues of the control mice (P < 0.001). The M2 macrophage markers (Arg-1 and IL-10) and M1 macrophage markers (iNOS and TNF-α) were both significantly up-regulated in the TAMs derived from RAW264.7 cells (all P < 0.01), but the up-regulation of the M2 macrophage markers was more prominent; the expression levels of P2X4 receptor protein and mRNA were both increased in the TAMs (P < 0.05). Interference of P2X4 receptor expression significantly lowered the mRNA(P < 0.01)and protein (P < 0.01, P < 0.05)expression levels of IL-1β and IL-18 in the TAMs and obviously inhibited the ability of the TAMs to promote invasion and migration of the glioma cells (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
Interference of P2X4 receptor in the TAMs suppresses the migration and invasion of glioma cells possibly by lowering the expressions of IL-1β and IL-18.

Objective: To analyze the clinical efficacy of fertility-preserving therapy in patients with atypical endometrial hyperplasia (AEH) and early endometrial carcinoma (EC). Methods: The general condition, pathological type, treatment plan, tumor outcomes and pregnancy outcomes of 110 patients with AEH and EC treated with fertility-preserving therapy in Peking University People's Hospital from December 2005 to September 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Kaplan-Meier and Log rank tests were used for survival analysis. Results: The response rate of 110 cases of AEH (62 cases) and EC (48 cases) was 94.5% (104/110) after fertility-preserving therapy. There were 93 cases (84.5%) achieved complete response and 11 cases (10.0%) achieved partial response, and the recurrence rate was 29.0% (27/93). The complete response rates of AEH and EC were 90.3% (56/62) and 77.1% (37/48), respectively, without significant difference (P=0.057). The recurrence rates of EC were significantly higher than that of AEH (40.5% vs 21.4%; P=0.022). Forty-one patients with complete response had pregnancy intention, the pregnancy rate was 70.7% (29/41), and the live birth rate was 56.1% (23/41). The live birth rate of AEH was 68.2% (15/22) and that of EC was 42.1% (8/19), the difference was statistically significant (P=0.032). The pathological type was related with the recurrence (P=0.044). Conclusions: Patients with AEH and EC can obtain high complete response rate and pregnancy rate after fertility-preserving therapy. The recurrence rate of EC is higher than that of AEH, while the live birth rate of AEH is higher than that of EC.

ObjectiveTo analyze the changes of serum levels of free triiodothyronine (FT3), free thyroxin (FT4) and thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) in 3~21-day-old preterm infants born between 28 and 36 weeks of gestation. MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed the clinical data of 236 preterm infants born at 28~36 weeks of gestation in the third affiliated hospital of Sun Yat-sen university between July 2018 and June 2019. The clinical data included thyroid function parameters (FT3, FT4, TSH), gestational age, gender, birth weight, birth length, time of examination, mode of conception, singleton or multiple birth, maternal thyroid disease and maternal gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). FT3, FT4 and TSH levels between 3~7-day-old and 8~21-day-old preterm infants were compared. Multiple linear regression models were used to identify the independent factors affecting FT3, FT4 and TSH levels. FT3 and FT4 levels in different gestational age groups were compared. ResultsCompared with those in 8~21-day-old preterm infants, in 3~7-day-old preterm infants, FT3 levels were significantly lower [(3.23±0.54) pmol/L vs. (3.41±0.76) pmol/L, P=0.040] and FT4 levels were significantly higher [(15.36±3.40) pmol/L vs. (13.20±2.63) pmol/L, P<0.001)]. No statistical difference was found in TSH levels. (P=0.846). In 3~7-day-old preterm infants, FT3 levels were associated with gestational age (P < 0.001); FT4 levels were associated with gestational age and time of examination (P < 0.001). In 8~21-day-old preterm infants, both FT3 and FT4 levels were associated with gestational age and gender (P < 0.001, P < 0.001). FT3 and FT4 were positively correlated with gestational age in both groups (P < 0.001, P < 0.001; P < 0.001, P = 0.001). ConclusionGestational age affects the thyroid function of the preterm infants of 3~21 days. The younger the gestational age, the lower FT3 and FT4 levels. A reference range of FT4 or T4 related to gestational age should be established, combined with TSH, to evaluate the thyroid function in preterm infants.
