Objective:To explore the screening value of platelet parameters from blood cell analysis for MYH9-related disorders(MYH9-RD).Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted with 38 patients diagnosed with MYH9-RD at Shenzhen Children's Hospital from May 1, 2016, to August 31, 2024, including 24 males and 14 females; the median age was 11.5 (3.8, 35) years; categorized by gene mutation location into "head region" ( n=8 ) and "tail region" ( n=30); and by clinical manifestations into " isolated hematological manifestations" ( n=16) and "hematological manifestations with extra-hematological involvement"( n=22). The control groups included 39 cases of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), 38 cases of acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), and 40 healthy individuals. Platelet-related parameters were detected by hematology analyzer, and platelet counts and sizes were confirmed by manually counting and microscopic observation. Kruskal-Wallis test was used to compare platelet parameters between MYH9-RD and control groups. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to assess the diagnostic efficacy of platelet parameters for MYH9-RD. Results:In MYH9-RD patients the median value of mean platelet volume (MPV) was 13.4 (11.2, 14.7) fl, immature platelet fraction (IPF) was 52.7% (43.5%, 58.0%), platelet large cell ratio(PLCR) was 57.6 %(45.0%, 62.9%), and microscopic large platelet ratio (PLCR-M) was 30.0% (25.0%, 30.0%).And those values weresignificantly higher than in ITP, ALL, and healthy controls (all P<0.05). Patients with MYH9 gene "head region" mutations had a lower platelet count [24.5 (15.0, 47.5)×10 9/L]than those with "tail region" mutations [69.0 (49.5, 86.3) ×10 9/L]( Z=-3.493, P<0.001), but a higher IPF ( t=2.024, P=0.044).Patients with "extra-hematological involvement had a lower platelet count than those with "isolated hematological manifestations" ( t=-2.015, P=0.043). The optimal cutoff value for diagnosing MYH9-RD with IPF was 26.7%, with a sensitivity of 100% and specificity of 98.7%; the area under the curve was 0.999 (95% CI 0.995-1.000), which was superior toMPV, PLCR and PLCR-M parameters. Conclusion:IPF is superior to other platelet parameters sush as MPV,showing high diagnostic efficacy in distinguishing MYH9-RD from ITP and ALL. It can be used as a simple and effective indicator for early screening of MYH9-RD.

This study elaborates on the teaching reform of the "Five-year Traditional Chinese Medicine Talent Training Program for Traditional Chinese Medicine (Orthopedics Direction)" implemented by Department of Orthopedics in Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, including curriculum reform (restructuring courses, emphasizing Lingnan characteristics, and combining medical sciences with martial arts) and teaching model reform (increasing mentorship and learning from teachers, arranging one mentor for every two students, and assigning one teaching team leader for every 5-6 groups). A questionnaire survey conducted among the students of the classes 2022 and 2023 in the five-year TCM talent training program for traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) majors (orthopedics direction) showed that 86.25% (69/80) of the students were satisfied with the mentorship model of "arranging one mentor for every two students", and 87.50% (70/80) of the students agreed that "the assignment of a teaching team leader can help to control teaching intensity". In terms of restructuring the curriculum system, 90.00% (72/80) of the students believed that the establishment of characteristic teaching courses could help to stimulate the enthusiasm for exploring TCM sciences, and 88.75% (71/80) of the students recognized the unique integration of textbooks, believing that it could help to understand the Lingnan school of Orthopedics. In terms of professional qualities, 90.00% (72/80) of the students agreed that the learning model of "systematic education+learning from teachers" could significantly help with the integration of knowledge, and 88.75% (71/80) of the students suggested that this model could stimulate the interest in specialized knowledge fields and motivate students to learn independently. In terms of apprenticeships with teachers, 85.00% (68/80) of the students reported that they could receive answers from teachers when asking questions, and 93.75% (75/80) of the students believed that early apprenticeship with a teacher was necessary. Some students still had a lack of understanding of learning TCM Qigong methods and believed that continuous practice took up too much personal time, failing to cultivate a good thinking of "the combination of medical sciences and martial arts", and they also believed that there were still limited opportunities for practice. The results show that the teaching model of "systematic education+learning from teachers" helps to improve the degree of satisfaction among students and cultivate clinical skills and professional qualities.

Objective:To evaluate the relationship between blood transfusion factors (massive transfusion, transfusion of stored red blood cells and anhepatic transfusion) and early postoperative outcomes in the patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation.Methods:Patients with end-stage liver disease who underwent orthotopic liver transplantation and intraoperative blood transfusion from January 2021 to March 2022 in our hospital were retrospectively selected, and their clinical data were collected. The patients were divided into massive transfusion group (M group, total red blood cell transfusion ≥10 U) and non-massive transfusion group (NM group) according to the amount of intraoperative blood transfused. The patients were divided into fresh blood group (NS group) and stored blood group (S group, red blood cell storage time > 2 weeks) according to the storage time of red blood cells transfused. The patients were divided into transfusion in anhepatic stage group (group T) and nontransfusion in anhepatic stage group (group NT) according to whether blood was transfused in the anhepatic stage. Multivariate logistic regression, generalized linear model and generalized linear mixed model were used to analyze the relationship between blood transfusion factors and primary outcome measures (postoperative pulmonary complications, circulation overload, acute kidney injury, abdominal infection, thrombosis) and between blood transfusion factors and secondary outcome measures (duration of ICU stay, postoperative hospitalization, postoperative temperature ≥38.5 ℃ at any time point after surgery, postoperative liver and kidney function index, coagulation function index, platelet count and preoperative difference).Results:One hundred and six patients were enrolled in this study. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis: Massive blood transfusion and infusion of stored blood were risk factors for postoperative pulmonary complications, massive blood transfusion was a risk factor for abdominal infection, Child-Turcotte-Pugh score for liver function and time of anhepatic phase were risk factors for postoperative acute kidney injury, Child-Turcotte-Pugh score was a risk factor for circulatory overload, and age and massive blood transfusion were risk factors for thrombosis ( P<0.05). The results of generalized linear model analysis: Intraoperative stored blood transfusion and blood transfusion during the anhepatic phase were risk factors for prolonged duration of ICU stay, massive blood transfusion, intraoperative stored blood transfusion and blood transfusion during the anhepatic phase were risk factors for prolonged hospitalization ( P<0.05), and there was no correlation between massive blood transfusion, intraoperative stored blood transfusion and blood transfusion during the anhepatic phase and temperature ≥38.5 ℃ at any time point after surgery ( P>0.05). The results of generalized linear mixed model analysis: There was statistically significant difference in the difference between preoperative and postoperative liver and kidney function indexes, coagulation function indexes and platelet counts in the patients with or without massive transfusion, stored blood transfusion or blood transfusion during the anhepatic phase ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Massive blood transfusion and infusion of stored blood are the main risk factors for early adverse outcomes after orthotopic liver transplantation in the patients.

Obsjective To analyze the inflammation characteristics and changes of small airway function in patients with eosinophil and neutrophil asthma, and provide evidence for individualized treatment of asthma. Methods:Using a cross-sectional study, 46 patients with eosinophilic asthma and 42 patients with neutrophilic asthma confirmed by cytology of induced sputum were recruited from July 1, 2017 to June 30, 2019 at the respiratory Department of Respiratory Medicine,Jinshan Branch of the Sixth People's Hospital of Shanghai. Patients were divided by asthma category into eosinophilic asthma group and neutrophilic asthma group.The severity of acute attack, the score of asthma control test (ACT) and the concentration of serum C-reactive protein (CRP) were compared between the two groups The fraction of exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO), related cytokines(interleukin-4(IL-4), interleukin-5(IL-5), interleukin-13(IL-13), interleukin-17(IL-17) and interferon γ(IFN-γ)) in peripheral blood and induced sputum supernatant and lung function indicators (forced exhalation volume in one second (FEV1)% percent predicted (%pred), maximal mid-expiratory flow (MMEF)% pred, forced expiratory flow (FEF) 75% pred, forced expiratory flow at 50% of FVC exhaled (FEF50%) pred were detected. Independent sample t-test was used for the comparison between measurement data groups comforming to normal distritution, rank sum test was used for the comparison between measurement data groups not conforming to normal distribution, and χ 2 test was used for the comparison of counting data. Results:There were no significant differences in the general data and ACT scores between the two groups (all P>0.05). The ratio of severe and critical degree (52.38%(22/42)), uncontrolled and partially controlled patients (59.52%(25/42)), CRP level (24.6(7.1, 35.0) mg/L) in neutrophil asthma group were higher than those in eosinophilic asthma group(30.43% (14/46), 36.96% (17/46), and 8.5 (2.0, 12.0) mg/L, respectively) (χ 2=4.37, χ 2=4.48, Z=4.76; P=0.036, P=0.034, P<0.001). The concentration of FeNO was higher in eosinophilic asthma group (76(54,93) ppb) than that in neutrophil asthma group(27(15,41) ppb),and the differences was statistically significant ( Z=6.52, P<0.001). The values of FEV1% pred ((56.13±21.51)%), MMEF% pred ((62.03±23.97)%), FEF75% pred ((54.42±20.49)%), FEF50% pred ((66.89±26.47)%) in neutrophil asthma group were lower than those in eosinophilic asthma group ((68.53±29.81)%, (72.16±23.05)%, (65.38±25.46)% and (79.86±27.61)%), and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant( t values were 2.25, 2.02, 2.21, 2.24; P values were 0.027, 0.046, 0.030, 0.027). The concentrations of serum IL-4((49.42±24.46) ng/L), IL-5((104.89±43.91) ng/L) and IL-4((44.49±19.12) ng/L), IL-5((95.45±28.58) ng/L) in induced sputum supernatant were higher than neutrophilic asthma group((32.29±14.19), (50.35±22.30), (33.33±15.08), (55.61±26.41) ng/L). The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t values were 4.06, 7.44, 3.02, 6.77, P values were <0.001, <0.001, 0.003, <0.001). In eosinophilic asthma group, the concentrations of serum IL-13 ((76.18±20.62) ng/L), IL-17 ((31.32±9.32) ng/L), IFN-γ ((18.27±5.56) ng/L) and IL-13((71.08±20.08) ng/L), IL-17((26.29±6.70) ng/L), and IFN-γ((17.61±5.94) ng/L) in induced sputum supernatant were lower than those in neutrophilic asthma group((153.83±44.53 ) ng/L, (55.27±18.89) ng/L, (26.46±10.08) ng/L, (120.32±28.41) ng/L, (44.99±12.66) ng/L, (23.91±7.66) ng/L). The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( t values were 10.33, 7.43, 4.66,9.31,8.54,4.33, respectively; all P<0.001). Conclusion:Eosinophilic asthma and neutrophil asthma have different inflammation, small airway function characteristics and different response to treatment. The small airway function changes in early stage of neutrophil asthma are more obvious.

To evaluate effects of reinfusion of the remaining blood filtered by leukocyte depletion filter on postoperative cellular immune function after cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Methods Forty patients who underwent selective cardiac valve replacement surgery with CPB in department of anesthesiology of Haikou Municipal Hospital from January to June in 2018 were enrolled. All the patients were divided into the control group and experimental group according to the random number table method, with 20 patients in each group. In the experimental group, patients received residual pump blood transfusion which had been filtered by leukocyte depletion filter and stored in sterile blood collection bags. In the control group, patients received residual pump blood transfusion which was stored in sterile blood collection bags without being filtered. The remaining blood was reinfused after CPB in two groups. Blood samples were taken before CPB (T1), 2 hours following CPB (T2), and 1, 3, 5 days after reinfusion of the remaining blood (T3, T4, T5), the levels of T lymphocyte subsets CD3+, CD4+, CD8+ and natural killer cells (NK cells) were detected by flow cytometer, and CD4+/CD8+ ratio was calculated. The levels of plasma tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukins (IL-2, IL-6, IL-8) were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent essay (ELISA). The duration of mechanical ventilation, the length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay, the length of hospital stay, and incidence of wound and pulmonary infection after surgery were compared between two groups. Results Among 40 patients, there were 22 males and 18 females; with an age of (47.88±12.29) years old; and with 25 cases of American Society of Anesthesiologists (ASA) physical status Ⅱ, and 15 cases of ASAⅢ. There was no statistical difference in the volume of the remaining blood between the two groups (mL: 959.00±116.84 vs. 971.50±115.68, P > 0.05). Compared with T1, the levels of T lymphocyte subsets CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, NK cells and plasma levels of IL-2 were significantly decreased from T2, the CD4+/CD8+ ratio was significantly decreased from T3 in two groups, but there was no statistical difference in CD3+, CD4+, CD8+, NK cells, CD4+/CD8+ ratio or plasma level of IL-2 at each time between the two groups. Compared with T1, the plasma levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-8 were significantly increased at T2 in two groups and then decreased gradually. The plasma levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-8 from T3 in experimental group were lower than those in control group [TNF-α (ng/L): 28.49±4.66 vs. 33.82±4.30, IL-6 (ng/L): 25.98±4.51 vs. 31.38±5.42, IL-8 (ng/L):38.98±4.67 vs. 45.76±5.33, all P < 0.05], they restored to the level of T1 at T5. In addition, compared with control group, the duration of mechanical ventilation, the length of ICU stay in experimental group were significantly decreased (hours: 8.07±1.30 vs. 9.16±1.52, 28.22±2.78 vs. 31.25±3.18, both P < 0.05), and there was no statistical difference in the length of hospital stay (days: 20.65±2.76 vs. 22.45±3.22), incidence of wound and pulmonary infection (25.0% vs. 15.0%, 5.0% vs. 15.0%) between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Conclusion Reinfusion of the remaining blood filtered by leukocyte depletion filtercan inhibit inflammatory responses and don't affect the function of cellular immunity, and don't increase the incidence of infection.
