Objective: To report the antibody identification, blood management during pregnancy and the monitoring process of fetal hemolytic disease of fetus and newborn (HDFN) in a pregnant woman with a history of blood transfusion and pregnancy who developed anti-Jr
. Methods: Saline tube technique and anti-human globulin technique were used for maternal blood typing, unexpected antibody screening and identification, as well as for determining antibody titer and IgG subclasses. PCR-SSP was employed for genotyping of 18 blood group systems. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) was utilized for gene sequencing of 38 blood group systems. Sanger sequencing was applied to verify rare blood group mutations detected by NGS and to investigate the corresponding rare blood group genes in family members. Blood preparation was achieved through anemia management in prenatal clinics and autologous blood collection during pregnancy. The newborn underwent the three primary tests for HDFN and plasma IgG subclass testing. Results: The pregnant woman's blood type was B, RhD positive, with a positive unexpected antibody screen, and the antibody identification pattern was consistent with a high-frequency antigen antibody. Gene sequencing revealed a homozygous ABCG2 c.376C>T mutation in the woman, resulting in the Jr(a-) phenotype, and anti-Jr
antibody was present in her plasma. No compatible Jr(a-) blood was found among family members. The maternal anti-Jr
IgG titer remained stable at 256 during pregnancy, with no detectable IgG1 or IgG3 subclasses against the Jr
antigen. A total of 800 mL of autologous blood was collected in two stages during pregnancy. The newborn was B, RhD positive, Jr(a+), with a positive unexpected antibody screen (anti-Jr
). IgG subclass typing detected no IgG1 or IgG3. The direct antiglobulin test was positive, while the acid elution test was negative. Conclusion: The combination of serology and blood group genetic analysis provides a diagnostic basis for identifying antibodies to high-frequency antigens. Managing perinatal anemia and implementing staged autologous blood storage can secure blood supply for the perioperative period. IgG antibody subclass typing offers a reference for clinical assessment and prevention of HDFN.

Objective:
To investigate the current status of benefit finding among young and middle-aged patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and analyze its influencing factors, so as to provide a reference for improving the level of benefit finding in this population.
Methods:
From November 2022 to May 2023, young and middle-aged patients with T2DM aged 18-59 years hospitalized in the endocrinology departments of 2 tertiary hospitals in Hengyang City, Hunan Province were selected as survey subjects by a convenience sampling method. Basic demographic information was collected using a general questionnaire survey. Benefit finding, resourcefulness, and stigma were evaluated using the Benefit Finding Scale, the Chinese Version of the Resourcefulness Scale, and the Type 2 Diabetes Stigma Assessment Scale, respectively. A multiple linear regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors of benefit finding among young and middle-aged patients with T2DM.
Results:
A total of 305 young and middle-aged patients with T2DM were investigated, including 222 males (72.79%) and 83 females (27.21%). There were 231 cases aged 45-59 years, accounting for 75.74%. The scores for benefit finding, resourcefulness, and stigma were (42.86±6.06), (75.12±11.30), and (41.20±10.10), respectively. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that young and middle-aged patients with T2DM who were male (β′=0.088), aged 18-<45 years (β′=0.083), absence of diabetes complications (β′=0.124), and had higher resourcefulness scores (β′=0.679) had higher levels of benefit finding, while patients with higher stigma scores (β′=-0.097) had lower levels of benefit finding.
Conclusion
The level of benefit finding among young and middle-aged patients with T2DM was moderate, and was related to gender, age, diabetes complications, resourcefulness, and stigma.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of acupuncture on postoperative delirium (POD) in diabetic patients undergoing surgery under general anesthesia.Methods:In this randomized controlled trial, 92 diabetic patients of either sex, aged 30-80 yr, with a body mass index of 18-28 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅱ or Ⅲ, scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia, were divided into 2 groups ( n=46 each) using a table of random numbers: control group (group C) and acupuncture group (group A). Group A received acupuncture at the Baihui (GV20), Shenting (GV24) and Sishencong (EX-HN1) acupoints before anesthesia. The needles were retained for 30 min, with manual stimulation applied every 10 min for 10 s each time. After 4 stimulations, routine anesthesia was carried out. Group C received routine anesthesia only. Regional cerebral oxygen saturation was recorded on admission to the operating room (T 0), after anesthesia induction (T 1), at the start of surgery (T 2), at the end of surgery (T 3), and immediately after tracheal extubation (T 4). The POD developed within 3 days after surgery was assessed. The occurrence of needle-related adverse effects such as fainting, subcutaneous bleeding, and local paresthesia was recorded. Results:Compared with group C, the incidence of POD was significantly reduced, and the regional cerebral oxygen saturation was increased at T 1, 4 in group A ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Acupuncture can decrease the development of POD in diabetic patients undergoing surgery under general anesthesia, which is related to an increase in regional cerebral oxygen saturation.

Objective:This study aimed to primarily discuss the pathogenesis of hereditary coagulation factor Ⅴ (FⅤ) deficiency in a family with a consanguineous cousin marriage.Methods:The coagulation indices of the pedigree (three generations with seven individuals) and the thrombin levels of the proband and his father were assessed. All exons of the F5 gene were analyzed with Sanger sequencing, and a new mutation was confirmed with reverse sequencing. The corresponding sites of the family members were then determined. A set of online software was utilized to predict the conservation and pathogenicity of the mutation site. The pathogenicity of this mutation site was evaluated according to the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG) guidelines.Results:The prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) of the proband were 52.2 s and 108.3 s, respectively. FⅤ activity (FⅤ∶ C) and FⅤ antigen (FⅤ∶Ag) were greatly decreased by 2% and 4%, respectively. The problem was diagnosed as type Ⅰ F Ⅴ deficiency. PT and APTT of the proband’s father, mother, and grandfather were slightly higher than the upper limit of the reference range, and FⅤ∶C and FⅤ∶Ag were approximately 50% of normal. The thromboplastin generation assay revealed that the amount of thromboplastin produced by the proband and his father was lower than that of the healthy controls and that the proband’s ability to produce thromboplastin was more severely impaired. Sequencing analysis revealed that the proband demonstrated a homozygous missense mutation of c.5128T > C (p.Trp1682Arg) in exon 15 of the F5 gene. The grandfather, father, and mother of the proband were all heterozygous for c.5128 T > C. Conservative analysis revealed that p.Trp1682 was a highly conserved site in the homozygous species, and five online software programs, including Mutation Taster, SIFT, REVEL, PolyPhen-2, and CADD, indicated that the mutation was pathogenic. The ACMG guidelines recommend that the new mutation c.5128 T > C is a possible pathogenic mutation (PM2 + PM3 + PP1 + PP3 + PP4). The comparison of the protein models before and after the mutation revealed that the benzene ring and the hydrogen bond were reduced after the mutation, which changed the local structure of the F Ⅴ protein.Conclusion:The missense mutation c.5128T > C (p. Trp1682Arg) in exon 15 of the F5 gene was initially considered the genetic cause of the FⅤ deficiency family. This mutation is the first report globally, which further enriches the gene-phenotype spectrum of FⅤ deficiency.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between inherited protein S deficiency (PSD) and cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) by phenotype and gene mutation analysis of 2 inherited PSD pedigrees with nonsense mutations.Methods:Retrospective analysis of clinical and imaging data of 2 patients diagnosed with CVST who were treated in the Department of Neurology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University in July and October 2023 was carried out. The peripheral blood samples were collected from proband 1 and her family members (3 subjects, 2 generations in total), and proband 2 and his family members (8 subjects of 3 generations in total). Their protein S (PS) activity (PS:A), the content of total PS antigen (TPS:Ag) and free PS antigen (FPS:Ag) were measured for definite diagnosis. Polymerase chain reaction was done in all 15 exons of the active PROS1 gene and its 5′ and 3′ untranslated regions and the amplification products were analyzed by direct sequencing. The results were compared with human PROS1 reference sequences, using Chromas software to find the mutation sites. Results:The proband 1 is a female, and the proband 2 is a male. Both of them had young onset and the clinical presentation of CVST. The PS:A level was reduced to 29% in the proband 1 and reduced to about 35% in her mother; PS:A was reduced to 21%-27% in the proband 2 and his 6 family members; a decline in the same proportion of TPS:Ag and FPS:Ag was found in the 2 probands and their family members, therefore they were primarily diagnosed as typeⅠPSD. Gene analysis showed that the proband 1 and her mother had a nonsense mutation of c.1680T>A in exon 14 (p.Tyr560 *) of the PROS1 gene; the proband 2 and his 6 family members had a nonsense mutation of c.1687C>T in exon 14 (p.Gln563 *) of the PROS1 gene. Conclusion:The reduced protein S levels in PSD patients and their family members may be associated with the p.Tyr560 * and p.Gln563 * nonsense mutations of the PROS1 gene, and the clinical manifestations of CVST in PSD patients may be related to these 2 nonsense mutations.
