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.

Based on systematic review and consensus meetings of international multidisciplinary experts, the Transfusion and Anemia Expert Initiative—Control/Avoidance of Bleeding (TAXI-CAB) project team developed management strategies for platelet and plasma transfusion in critically ill children. This consensus presents five expert consensus statements and two recommendations addressing two key questions: 1) What Laboratory Tests and Physiologic Triggers Should Guide the Decision to Administer a Platelet or Plasma Transfusion in Critically ill Children? 2) What Product Attributes Are Optimal to Guide Specific Product Selection? This consensus provides guidance for decision-making regarding plasma and platelet transfusion in critically ill children in two aspects: relevant laboratory testing indicators and additional special properties of blood components. This article explains the rationale behind the recommendations in this part of the guideline, aiming to emphasize the need for clinicians to develop transfusion strategies based on multidimensional assessment, while calling for enhanced interdisciplinary collaboration and evidence-based research to optimize blood management in critically ill children, reducing the risk of over-transfusion and improving treatment outcomes. Furthermore, there remains an urgent need for further research to explore laboratory indicators associated with bleeding risk to guide transfusion therapy.

Objectives:To observe the exercise tolerance and cardiopulmonary function characteristics of patients with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) combined with cardiovascular disease,in order to assess the cardiorespiratory reserve and health status of untreated OSAHS,and to provide a clinical evidence for the phase Ⅱ cardiac rehabilitation. Methods:This retrospective analysis included 134 cardiovascular disease patients who attended the Cardiac Rehabilitation Center of Fuwai Hospital,Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences from November 2021 to April 2024 and received home sleep apnea monitoring (HSAT).According to the apnea hypopnea index (AHI),the patients were divided into the non-OSAHS (AHI<5 times/h) group (n=24),the mild-OSAHS (5 times/h ≤AHI<15 times/h) group (n=65),and moderate-to-severe OSAHS (AHI ≥15 times/h) group (n=45),and the body composition,pulmonary function characteristics,exercise tolerance,and ventilatory response to exercise were compared among the three groups. Results:A total of 110 (82.1％) patients had comorbid OSAHS,with a higher proportion of male patients (80.0％).Height,weight,body mass index,lean body mass,skeletal muscle mass,body water content,and basal metabolic rate increased progressively with increasing OSAHS severity in three groups (all P<0.05),while cardiovascular disease comorbidity was similar.Static lung function,exercise tolerance and ventilatory function at maximal exercise were similar between the patients in the mild OSAHS group and the moderate-severe OSAHS group as compared to the non-OSAHS group (all P>0.05).With the increase in the severity of OSAHS,the cardiorespiratory fitness showed a decreasing trend among patients in the three groups,and the forced vital capacity and the maximum vital capacity of patients in the moderate-severe OSAHS group were significantly higher than that of the mild OSAHS group,while peak O2 pulse％pred was significantly lower than that of the mild OSAHS group (all P<0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that the body fat mass (β=0.307,95％CI:0.263-0.823,P<0.001),minute ventilation at rest (β=0.259,95％CI:0.429-1.785,P=0.002) were the independent influencing factors of AHI. Conclusions:The prevalence of OSAHS is high in patients with cardiovascular disease,and patients with moderate-to-severe OSAHS have reduced cardiorespiratory fitness,OSAHS is not associated with additional cardiac impairment and ventilatory function impairment in patients with cardiovascular disease.Weight loss should be the primary rehabilitation goal in patients with OSAHS combined with cardiovascular disease.

Background Occupational health risk assessment of dust-exposed operations is an important part of occupational health work. However, there is a lack of objective and effective methods for validating the risk assessment results. Objective To explore the application value of chest imaging changes in validating occupational health risk assessment results of dust-exposed operations. Methods Alumina dust-exposed workers in an abrasive manufacturing company were selected as study subjects. The Australian Occupational Health and Safety Risk Assessment model (Australian model), and the Singapore semi-quantitative risk assessment model of occupational exposure to chemical substances (Singaporean model) were used to conduct occupational health risk assessment for the target group. Consistency of the assessment results was compared. The cumulative risk value and cumulative risk level of the subjects were calculated. The subjects were examined and diagnosed by chest radiographs, and the differences in the positive rates of aluminum dust shadows of workers at different job risk levels and different cumulative risk levels were compared. Results The average risk ratios (RR) of selected alumina dust-exposed workers estimated by the Australian model and the Singapore model were both 0.49±0.10, indicating generally medium occupational health risk level. The evaluation results of the two models were obviously consistent (kappa test, k = 0.823, P < 0.001). Among the 192 subjects, 62 (32.3%) were found to have aluminum dust shadows on their chest radiographs, and there were no case of pneumoconiosis. The aluminum dust shadows were mainly classified by shape and size as “s” (30.7%); the profusion of small opacities was mainly "less than 0/1" (31.3%); they were mostly distributed in 2 pulmonary zones (18.8%), and mostly in the right lower lung (18.8%), and none was seen in the two upper lung zones. The positive rate of aluminum dust shadows in the high-risk workplaces (41.7%) assessed by the Australian model was significantly higher than that in the medium-risk workplaces (22.9%) (P < 0.01). The positive rate of aluminum dust shadows in the medium-risk workplaces (42.7%) assessed by the Singapore model was significantly higher than that in the low-risk workplaces (23.3%) (P < 0.01). The cumulative risk levels evaluated by the two models were all atⅠ- Ⅲ levels. With the increase of cumulative risk level by the two models, the positive rates of aluminum dust shadows in the subjects both showed an obvious increase trend (P < 0.05). Conclusion The risk assessment results of the Australian model and the Singapore model are obviously consistent for the target group. They can be jointly applied to the risk assessment of dust-exposed operations. The application of chest imaging changes is of certain value to validate the results of occupational health risk assessment for dust-exposed operations.
