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/Aims: Low educational attainment is a well-established risk factor for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in developed areas. However, the association between educational attainment and the risk of NAFLD is less clear in China. Methods: A cross-sectional study including over 200,000 Chinese adults across mainland China was conducted. Information on education level and lifestyle factors were obtained through standard questionnaires, while NAFLD and advanced fibrosis were diagnosed using validated formulas. Outcomes included the risk of NAFLD in the general population and high probability of fibrosis among patients with NAFLD. Logistic regression analysis was employed to estimate the risk of NAFLD and fibrosis across education levels. A causal mediation model was used to explore the potential mediators. Results: Comparing with those receiving primary school education, the multi-adjusted odds ratios (95% confidence intervals) for NAFLD were 1.28 (1.16 to 1.41) for men and 0.94 (0.89 to 0.99) for women with college education after accounting for body mass index. When considering waist circumference, the odds ratios (95% CIs) were 0.94 (0.86 to 1.04) for men and 0.88 (0.80 to 0.97) for women, respectively. The proportions mediated by general and central obesity were 51.00% and 68.04% for men, while for women the proportions were 48.58% and 32.58%, respectively. Furthermore, NAFLD patients with lower educational attainment showed an incremental increased risk of advanced fibrosis in both genders. Conclusions In China, a low education level was associated with a higher risk of prevalent NAFLD in women, as well as high probability of fibrosis in both genders.

Objective: To detect and analyze the expression level of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D], periodontal clinical indicators and immunological indicators of rheumatism in patients with periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis (RA), and to explore the correlation between 25(OH)D and the two diseases. Methods: This study was a case-control study. According to the inclusion criteria, patients from the Department of Stomatology and the Department of Rheumatology and Immunology and healthy volunteers from the Physical Examination Center were selected from November 2018 to May 2019 in Shengjing Hospital, China Medical University respectively. The patients were divided into 4 groups: 26 patients with simple periodontitis were included in the periodontitis group; 23 patients with RA were included in the RA group; 22 patients with RA and periodontitis simultaneously were included in the RA with periodontitis group; 22 healthy volunteers were included in the healthy control group, adding up to a total of 93 cases. The general information and periodontal clinical indexes of subjects in these 4 groups were recorded. Median elbow venous blood samples were collected from fasting subjects in each group, and 25(OH)D and immunoglobulin (Ig) were measured. The disease activity scores of RA patients were recorded and the rheumatic immune indexes were determinated. Pearson correlation analysis was performed between 25 (OH) D level and periodontal indexes in subjects of 4 groups. Results: The expression levels of rheumatoid factor [106.5(47.1, 283.8) kU/L] and C-reactive protein [20.5(13.1, 32.3) mg/L] in RA with periodontitis group were significantly higher than those in RA group [60.1(19.0, 110.0) kU/L, 14.7(3.0, 18.0) mg/L] (Z=-2.29, P=0.022; Z=-2.25, P=0.024). The levels of IgG and IgA in RA with periodontitis group [IgG and IgA: (16.0±4.3), (3.2± 1.3) g/L] as well as RA group [IgG and IgA: (16.3±5.5), (3.7±1.8) g/L] were significantly higher than those in healthy control group [IgG and IgA: (12.0±1.8), (2.3±0.6) g/L] and periodontitis group [IgG and IgA: (12.5±2.2), (2.0±0.7) g/L](P<0.05). The level of 25(OH)D in RA with periodontitis group [(26.0±9.8) nmol/L] was significantly lower than that in periodontitis group [(35.6±8.4) nmol/L] and RA group [(32.7±8.6) nmol/L] (P<0.05). The level of 25(OH)D was negatively correlated with sulcus bleeding index (r=-0.43, P=0.032) and clinical attachment loss (r=-0.41, P=0.043). Conclusions: Expression level of 25(OH)D was significantly decreased in patients with periodontitis and RA. There was a certain correlation between 25(OH)D and periodontitis and RA.

Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) is the leading cause of neonatal death and neurodevelopmental disorders in infants. Part of patients have different degrees of neurological sequelae, such as cerebral palsy, cognitive and motor function development disorders. Hypoxia-ischemia may activate JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway, which leads to the microglia activation and neuroinflammation. Down-Regulating JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway can inhibit microglia activation and regulate the inflammatory injury of nervous system. At present, the treatment of hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy is limited, so the study of regulatory mechanism about microglia activation has important value for the treatment of hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy. This paper summarizes the role of JAK2/STAT3 signaling pathway in microglia activation and analyzes the relationship between them, in order to provide new ideas and strategies for treatment on hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.

Objective:To explore the effects of transcutaneous electric nerve stimulation (TENS) combined with cognitive behavior intervention in the elderly coronary disease patients with hypertension.Methods:From May 2017 to May 2019, we selected 90 elderly coronary disease patients with hypertension in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University as subjects by convenience sampling. All of patients were divided into control group and observation group with the method of random number table, 45 cases in each group. Control group carried out cognitive behavior intervention, while observation group implemented the TENS combined with cognitive behavior intervention. We compared the angina pectoris symptom control, blood pressure control and the self-perceived burden with the Self-perceived Burden Scale (SPBS) of patients between two groups.Results:After intervention, the effective rate of angina pectoris control of observation group was higher than that of control group with a statistical difference ( P<0.05) ; the diastolic pressure and systolic pressure of observation group were lower than those of control group with statistical differences ( P<0.05) ; the score of SPBS of patients in control group was higher than that in control group also with a statistical difference ( P<0.001) . Conclusions:TENS combined with cognitive behavior intervention for elderly coronary disease patients with hypertension contributes to angina pectoris symptom control and reducing the blood pressure as well as self-perceived burden.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of selective lumbosacral posterior rhizotomy(SPR) on lower limb spasticity and gross motor function in patients with cerebral palsy. METHODS: From January 2018 to October 2018, 47 patients with cerebral palsy were treated with rehabilitation alone and SPR combined with rehabilitation. According to whether SPR was performed, the patients were divided into group A and group B. Group A was treated with rehabilitation combined with SPR at lumbosacral level, and group B was treated with rehabilitation alone. There were 23 cases in group A, including 15 males and 8 females, with an average age of (7.30±3.25) years old; 24 cases in group B, 13 males and 11 females, with an average age of (7.00±3.09) years old. Forty-seven patients were assessed with modified Ashworth(MAS) and Gross Motor Function Scale(GMFM-88 items) before and after treatment. The changes of MAS and GMFM-88 scores before and after treatment were compared to evaluate the degree of spasm and the improvement of gross motor function in the two groups. RESULTS: All 47 patients were followed up. At 6 months after treatment, the MAS classification of the two groups was significantly improved(<0.05), and the improvement of group A was more obvious than that of group B(<0.05). Six months after treatment, the D, E and total scores of GMFM-88 between two groups were significantly improved compared with those before operation(<0.05). The improvement of D and total scores in group A was more obvious than that in group B. There was no significant difference in the improvement of area E between two groups. CONCLUSIONS Selective posterior rhizotomy combined with rehabilitation can significantly improve the spastic state and gross motor function of lower limbs in children with cerebral palsy, and can effectively promote the reconstruction and recovery of motor function of lower limbs in children with cerebral palsy.
