Objective: To improve the efficiency and standardization of preoperative anemia diagnosis and treatment by establishing a systematic intelligent management platform for preoperative anemia. Methods: A multidisciplinary collaborative model was adopted to develop a preoperative anemia management system that integrates intelligent early warning, standardized treatment pathways, and quality control. The system utilizes natural language processing technology to automatically capture laboratory data and establish evidence-based medical decision support functions. A pre-post study design was employed to compare changes in preoperative anemia screening rates, preoperative anemia intervention rates, reasonable use of iron supplements, and perioperative red blood cell transfusion rates before and after system implementation. Results: After system implementation, the standardization of anemia diagnosis and treatment significantly improved: 1) Screening effectiveness: The anemia screening rate increased to 50.00% (an increase of 27.24%); 2) Intervention effectiveness: The anemia treatment rate rose to 56.30% (an increase of 14.02%); 3) Treatment standardization: The reasonable use rate of iron supplements increased to 55.33% (an increase of 21.02%); the red blood cell transfusion rate decreased to 18.29% (a decrease of 4.07%), and the amount of red blood cell transfusions was reduced by 291 units. Conclusion: This system achieves full-process management of preoperative anemia through information technology, significantly enhancing the standardization of diagnosis and treatment as well as intervention effectiveness, providing an effective solution for perioperative anemia management.

Objective To explore the dynamic changes and mechanisms of neurological and cognitive functions in mice with traumatic brain injury (TBI). Methods Totally 60 12⁃month⁃old Balb/ c mice were divided into control group (10 in group) and TBI group (50 in group). TBT model mice were divided into 5 subgroups according to the time of model construction, including model 1 day, model 1 day, model 3 day, model 7 day, model 14 days and model 28 days group with 10 in each group. At the 29th day of the experiment, neurological scores and step down tests were carried out. After the test, the mice were sacrificed for brains which were detected by immunohistochemistry staining, inflammatory cytokine tests and Western blotting. Results Compared with the control group, the neurological scores of mice in TBI group increased, and then decreased after the 7th day when the scores reached the peak. However, the latency of step down errors was lower than control group, and the number of step down errors was higher than control group which had no changes. Compared with the control group, the expression of lonized calcium⁃binding adapter molecule 1(IBA1), chemokine C⁃X3⁃C⁃motif ligand1 (CX3CL1), C⁃X3⁃C chemokine receptor 1(CX3CR1), NOD⁃like receptor thermal protein domain associated protein 3 (NLRP3), and phosphorylation nuclear factor(p⁃NF)⁃κB in TBI group increased and reached to the peak at the 7th day, and then started to decrease. At the same time, the levels of inflammatory cytokines interleukin⁃6(IL⁃6) and tumor necrosis factor⁃α(TNF⁃α) first increased to the peak, and then began to decrease. However, compared with the control group, the expression of amyloid β(Aβ) protein and p⁃Tau protein in the model group continued to increase at all time. Conclusion The TBI model caused continuous activation of microglia along with inflammatory response, which first increased and then decreased, resultsing in neurological scores changes. In addition, the inflammatory response may act as a promoter of Aβ protein deposition and Tau protein phosphorylation, leading to cognitive impairment in mice.

Objective As a signaling molecule,NO regulates key physiological processes and is closely related to periodontitis.To investigate the effect of flavonoid NO donor composite nanoparticles(G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS)on osteogenic differentiation of periodontal ligament stem cells(PDLSCs)by regulating macrophage polarization.Methods The novel NO donor drug G10 was loaded on hydroxyapatite/mesoporous silicanant particles(HAP/MSN),filled with zinc oxide(ZnO),and then coated with chitosan(COS)to prepare composite nanoparticles(G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS).The best concentration of G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS was screened to promote cell proliferation by CCK-8 cell experiment.After the mouse mononuclear macrophages were stimulated by lipopo-lysaccharide,the mice were divided into four groups:Control group,G10 group,HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS group and G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS group.Each group was cultured with fresh medium,5 μg/mL G10,5 μg/mL HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS and 5 μg/mL G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS for 72 h respectively.ELISA and RT-qPCR were used to detect the expression of cytokines(TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1β,iNOS,IL-10)and mRNA expression in each group,and the phenotypic changes of M1/M2 were evaluated.The supernatant of each culture medium was used as conditioned medium to culture PDLSCs,and the osteogenic ability and cell miner-alization were evaluated by alkaline phosphatase activity test and alizarin red staining.Results CCK-8 experiment showed that G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS of 5 μg/mL could significantly promote the proliferation of PDLSCs.The results of ELISA showed that compared with Control group,the expression of M1 type marker IL-1β,IL-6,TNF-α and iNOS in G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS group was significantly decreased(P＜0.000 1),while the expression of M2 type marker IL-10 was significantly increased(P＜0.000 1).The results of RT-qPCR were consistent with those of ELISA,which showed that the expression of M1-related genes in G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS group decreased significantly(P＜0.01).The results of alizarin red staining and alkaline phosphatase activity test showed that the number of mineralized nodules and alkaline phosphatase activity in G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS-CM group were significantly higher than those in other groups(P＜0.000 1).Conclusion Composite nanoparticles(G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS)can effectively inhibit the polarization of macrophages to M1 phenotype and promote it to M2 phenotypic polarization.The anti-inflammatory microenvironment regulated by G10@HAP/MSN@ZnO@COS can en-hance the osteogenic differentiation of PDLSCs.

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.

BACKGROUND: Hair follicles are easily accessible and contain stem cells with different developmental origins, including mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), that consequently reveal the potential of human hair follicle (hHF)-derived MSCs in repair and regeneration. However, the role of hHF-MSCs in Achilles tendinopathy (AT) remains unclear. The present study investigated the effects of hHF-MSCs on Achilles tendon repair in rabbits. METHODS: First, we extracted and characterized hHF-MSCs. Then, a rabbit tendinopathy model was constructed to analyze the ability of hHF-MSCs to promote repair in vivo . Anatomical observation and pathological and biomechanical analyses were performed to determine the effect of hHF-MSCs on AT, and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and immunohistochemical staining were performed to explore the molecular mechanisms through which hHF-MSCs affects AT. Furthermore, statistical analyses were performed using independent sample t test, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), and one-way repeated measures multivariate ANOVA as appropriate. RESULTS: Flow cytometry, a trilineage-induced differentiation test, confirmed that hHF-derived stem cells were derived from MSCs. The effect of hHF-MSCs on AT revealed that the Achilles tendon was anatomically healthy, as well as the maximum load carried by the Achilles tendon and hydroxyproline proteomic levels were increased. Moreover, collagen I and III were upregulated in rabbit AT treated with hHF-MSCs (compared with AT group; P  < 0.05). Analysis of the molecular mechanisms revealed that hHF-MSCs promoted collagen fiber regeneration, possibly through Tenascin-C (TNC) upregulation and matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 downregulation. CONCLUSIONS hHF-MSCs can be a treatment modality to promote AT repair in rabbits by upregulating collagen I and III. Further analysis revealed that treatment of AT using hHF-MSCs promoted the regeneration of collagen fiber, possibly because of upregulation of TNC and downregulation of MMP-9, thus suggesting that hHF-MSCs are more promising for AT.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between trace elements in synovial fluid and cartilage and severity of knee osteoarthritis (KOA). METHODS: Patients with KOA who underwent knee arthrocentesis or total knee arthroplasty (TKA) were recruited based on inclusion criteria between June 2021 and December 2021. Synovial fluid samples were obtained during knee arthrocentesis and TKA, and participants were divided into the mild group (grading Ⅰ/Ⅱ) and the severe group (grading Ⅲ/Ⅳ) according to the Kellgren-Lawrence grading (K-L grading). Cartilage samples with different degrees of wear were collected during the TKA from the same patient and were divided into mild wear (0-1 point) and severe wear (2-4 points) groups based on the Pelletier score. The contents of copper (Cu), zinc (Zn), and manganese (Mn) in synovial fluid and cartilage were evaluated by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry, and the differences between groups were compared. RESULTS: A total of 33 synovial fluid samples were collected, including 19 specimens from 14 patients who underwent knee arthrocentesis of mild group, with 5 bilateral sides knee arthrocentesis in them, and 14 specimens from 14 TKA patients of severe group. The patients were significantly younger in the mild group than in the severe group ( P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in gender or body mass index between the two groups ( P>0.05). Nineteen pairs of cartilage samples with mild and severe wear were collected from severe KOA patients (K-L grading Ⅲ and Ⅳ), including 9 males and 10 females, with an average age of 70.4 years (range, 58-80 years). The body mass index ranged from 21.2 to 30.7 kg/m ², with an average of 25.6 kg/m ². The content of Zn in synovial fluid and cartilage from KOA patients was the highest, followed by Cu, and Mn was the lowest. The Cu content in synovial fluid was significantly higher in the severe group than in the mild group ( P<0.05), and in the severe wear group than in the mild wear group ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in Zn and Mn content between the two groups ( P>0.05). CONCLUSION The Cu content increases with the severity of cartilage wear in patients with KOA.

Objective To investigate the correlation between ADC value and glioma IDH-1/1p19q genotype. Methods The MRI features and molecular pathological results of 69 patients with pathologically confirmed diagnosis of WHO grade Ⅱ/Ⅲ glioma between March 2013 and December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The diagnostic performance of ADC values on glioma genotypes (IDH-1, 1p19q) was evaluated using the ROC curve of the subjects' working characteristics. Results The ADCmean, ADC_min, rADC_mean, and rADC_min in the IDH-1 mutation group were significantly higher than those in the IDH-1 wild group (P < 0.05, P < 0.01, P < 0.05, P < 0.01). The use of the rADC_min threshold (0.979×10³mm²/s) had the highest efficacy (AUC=0.770) for diagnosis of IDH-1 mutant and IDH-1 wild-type gliomas as well as sensitivity and specificity of 84.61% and 59.09%, respectively. Conclusion ADC can be used as an imaging biomarker for noninvasive prediction of IDH-1 mutant and wild-type Ⅱ /Ⅲ gliomas.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of phacoemulsification combined with gonioscopy-assisted angle plasty (Phaco-GAAP) for primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG) with cataract.Methods:A case series study was carried out.Twenty-five eyes of 22 patients with PACG and cataract were enrolled in Beijing Tongren Hospital from April 2022 to August 2022.All of the patients received Phaco-GAAP surgery.During the operation, viscoelastic-assisted goniosynechialysis was performed at first, followed by a secondary angle plasty for residual peripheral anterior synechiae (PAS) based on the quantified assessment by gonioscopy, and the extent of PAS was recorded intraoperatively.The operated eyes were followed at 1 day, 1 week, 1 month and 3 months after surgery to evaluate intraocular pressure (IOP), PAS range, the number of anti-glaucoma drugs application, operation-related complications, and success rate.The qualified success rate was defined as medicine-controlled IOP ≤21 mmHg after surgery, and complete success rate was defined as IOP ≤21 mmHg without any anti-glaucoma medication.This study complied with the Declaration of Helsinki and was approved by the Ethics Committee of Beijing Tongren Hospital (TRECKY2021-136). Written informed consent was obtained from each patient prior to entering the research cohort.Results:The extent of PAS was [270(225, 360)°], [165(110, 215)°] and [100(35, 175)°] at preoperation, first and secondary angle plasty, respectively, showing a significant difference among them ( χ2 =40.742, P<0.001). The PAS range was significantly reduced at first angle plasty in comparison with preoperation and was significantly reduced at secondary angle plasty in comparison with at first angle plasty (both at P<0.001), and the proportion of the angle PAS range ≥180° decreased from 48% to 24% after second angle plasty.In 13 eyes finished gonioscopy, the PAS range was [240(195, 305)°], [60(25, 182.5)°], [170(120, 275)°]and [180(140, 280)°]at preoperation, at the end of operation, postoperative 1 month and 3 months, respectively, with a significant difference ( χ2 =23.631, P<0.001). The PAS range was significantly smaller at postoperative 1 month, 3 months than that at preoperation (both at P=0.004) and larger than that at the end of operation ( P=0.011, P=0.003). The IOP was (40.19±17.23), (15.80±7.98), (13.89±5.09), (12.80±3.79) and(13.24±2.78) mmHg before operation and 1 day, 1 week, 1 month and 3 months after operation, respectively, showing a significant difference ( F=44.031, P<0.001), and the IOP was significantly reduced after operation (all at P<0.001). The PAS range at the end of operation was positively correlated with preoperation ( rs=0.409, P=0.042). The complete and qualified success rates were 95.8%, 95.8% for postoperative 1 month, 95.8% and 100% for postoperative 3 months, respectively.The primary complication was intraoperative anterior chamber angle hemorrhage, with an incidence of 68%. Conclusions:Phaco-GAAP can intraoperatively quantify PAS range and guide secondary angle plasty, therefore, it is an effective and safe surgical intervention for PACG with cataract.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical effect of acupuncture for delayed sleep-wake phase disorder (DSWPD). METHODS: A total of 84 patients with DSWPD were randomized into an observation group (42 cases, 2 cases dropped off) and a control group (42 cases, 3 cases dropped off). On the basis of sleep hygiene education, acupuncture was applied at Shenmai (BL 62), Zhaohai (KI 6), Hegu (LI 4), Taichong (LR 3), Zusanli (ST 36) and Sanyinjiao (SP 6) in the observation group, while placebo acupuncture was applied at the same acupoints in the control group. The treatment lasted for 8 weeks, once every other day, 3 times a week in the 1st to 4th weeks; once every 3 days, 2 times a week in the 5th to 8th weeks. Before and after treatment, the actigraphy (ACT) indexes of objective sleep (total time of stay in bed, total sleep time, sleep efficiency, the number of awakenings and the wake time after falling asleep) and plasma cortisol (CORT) level were observed; before and after treatment and in follow-up of 1, 3 months after treatment, the scores of morningness-eveningness questionnaire (MEQ), insomnia severity index (ISI), fatigue severity scale (FSS) and Epworth sleepiness scale (ESS) were observed in the two groups. RESULTS: Compared before treatment, the total sleep time was prolonged, the sleep efficiency was improved, the number of awakenings was reduced, and the wake time after falling asleep was shortened after treatment in the observation group (P<0.01, P<0.05), and those in the observation group after treatment were superior to the control group (P<0.01, P<0.05). Compared before treatment, the MEQ scores after treatment in both groups and in the follow-up of 1, 3 months after treatment in the observation group were increased (P<0.01), and the MEQ score of each time point after treatment in the observation group was higher than the control group (P<0.01). The scores of ISI, FSS and ESS after treatment, and the scores of ISI、ESS in follow-up of 1, 3 months after treatment in the observation group were decreased compared with those before treatment (P<0.01, P<0.05), and in the observation group, the scores of ISI, FSS and ESS of each time point after treatment were lower than those in the control group (P<0.01, P<0.05). After treatment, the plasma CORT level in the observation group was decreased compared with that before treatment and that in the control group (P<0.01, P<0.05). CONCLUSION Acupuncture can improve the sleep and wake phase of patients with DSWPD, improve sleep quality and daytime function, and its mechanism may be related to the down-regulation of plasma CORT level.

ObjectiveTo examine the current status of preschoolers' eating behaviors and investigate its correlation with family cohesion and adaptability. MethodsA cross-sectional study was conducted involving 21，954 preschoolers and their families from Pingshan District， Shenzhen， between September 2021 and December 2021. A general demographic questionnaire， the Chinese version of Family Adaptability and Cohesion Evaluation Scale Ⅱ （FACESⅡ-CV） and Chinese Preschoolers’ Eating Behavior Questionnaire （CPEBQ） were used to collect the relevant information. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the association of family cohesion and adaptability with eating behaviors of preschoolers. ResultsTypes of family cohesion and adaptability were significantly correlated with all the 7 dimensions of preschoolers' eating behaviors， including food fussiness （R²=0.252， F=114.457， P<0.001）， food responsiveness （R² = 0.111， F =24.973， P<0.001）， eating habit （R²= 0.304， F =139.658， P<0.001）， satiety responsiveness （R² = 0.259， F =105.332， P<0.001）， external eating （R² = 0.182， F =50.150， P<0.001）， emotional eating （R² = 0.234， F =91.084， P<0.001） and initiative eating （R² = 0.349， F =168.608， P<0.001）. After adjusting for confounding factors， our study showed that types of family cohesion and adaptability were independent predictors of preschoolers' eating behaviors （P<0.05）. ConclusionsTypes of family cohesion and adaptability have a significant predictive effect on the 7 dimensions of preschoolers' eating behaviors. Higher scores of family cohesion and adaptability imply stronger initiative eating ability and less poor dietary behaviors in preschoolers.
