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.

Zhuang medicine believes that "toxin deficiency" is a key factor in the onset of primary dysmenorrhea, and the failure of the "three pathways and two pathways" is the direct cause of its onset. The treatment should follow the method of "restoring visceral function". The Zhuang medicine lotus needle cupping and dredging method has strong Zhuang characteristics, and is widely used in the treatment of neuropathic pain and has achieved good therapeutic effects. Based on the theory of "toxin deficiency" in Zhuang medicine, this article discussed the application of lotus needle cupping and dredging method in primary dysmenorrhea, and provided reference for its treatment.

Objective To investigate the distribution of traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)constitution types in patients with perimenopause metabolic syndrome in Guangzhou based on the Stages of Reproductive Aging Workshop+10(STRAW+10),so as to provide a theoretical basis for TCM constitution regulation for patients with PMS.Methods According to the diagnostic criteria of metabolic syndrome,a total of 90 patients with PMS were included.Based on the STRAW+10 staging criteria,the PMS patients were divided into early perimenopause group(-2 phase of STRAW+10,49 cases),late perimenopause group(-1 phase of STRAW+10,24cases),and early postmenopausal group(+la phase of STRAW+10,17 cases).Traditional Chinese Medicine Constitution Classification and Distinguishing Criteria were used to identify the TCM constitution types of all the subjects.At the same time,the Self-Rating Anxiety Scale(SAS)and Self-Rating Depression Scale(SDS)were used for scoring anxiety and depression.The distribution of TCM constitution types in patients with different STRAW+10 stages was analyzed,and the SAS and SDS scores of patients with different STRAW+10 stages were compared.Results(1)The primary TCM constitution types in the early perimenopause group(-2 phase of STRAW+10)were yang deficiency constitution(14 cases,29.79％),balanced constitution(10 cases,21.28％),yin deficiency constitution(six cases,12.76％)and blood stasis constitution(six cases,12.76％).In the late perimenopause group(-1 phase of STRAW+10),the primary TCM constitution types were yang deficiency constitution(six cases,25.00％),balanced constitution(four cases,16.66％),blood stasis constitution(four cases,16.66％),qi deficiency constitution(three cases,12.50％)and phlegm-damp constitution(three cases,12.50％).In the early postmenopausal group(+la phase of STRAW+10),the primary TCM constitution types were yang deficiency constitution(seven cases,46.67％),balanced constitution(two cases,13.33％),phlegm-damp constitution(two cases,13.33％),blood stasis constitution(two cases,13.33％),qi deficiency constitution(one case,6.67％)and qi stagnation constitution(one case,6.67％).(2)The SAS score and SDS score in the early perimenopause group(-2 phase of STRAW+10)were(34.55±7.46)points and(35.55±10.61)points,respectively,which were higher than those in the late perimenopause group(-1 phase of STRAW+10)[(33.83±7.73)points and(35.46±11.35)points,respectively]and in the early postmenopausal group(+la phase of STRAW+10)[(35.65±8.67)points and(36.59±12.07)points,respectively].All of the scores were higher than the overall average level.Conclusion The TCM constitution of patients with perimenopause metabolic syndrome is predominated by yang deficiency constitution.The percentage of the balanced constitution gradually decreases with the progression of STRAW+10 staging,and the biased constitutions gradually develop from yin deficiency constitution and blood stasis constitution into qi deficiency constitution and phlegm-damp constitution,and then into phlegm-damp constitution and blood stasis constitution again.With the progression of the stage,the deficiency in the fundamental of the PMS patients becomes more deficient and the pathogens of excess in the incidental also grow.

The cobalt sulphide nickel ternary material(NiCo2S4)prepared by hydrothermal method in this work was combined with multi-walled carbon nanotubes(MWCNT)for constructing an electrochemical sensor for quantitative detection of rutin.The morphology and crystal of the electrochemical materials were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffractometer,and the electrochemical behavior of the glassy carbon electrode(GCE)modified with NiCo2S4/MWCNT composites was investigated.The experimental results showed that the electrochemical redox process of two electrons and two protons occurred on the surface of modified electrode NiCo2S4/MWCNT/GCE.Under the optimized conditions,the linear range for detection of rutin by square-wave voltammetry(SWV)using this sensor was 0.06-14.8 μmol/L and the detection limit was 14.3 nmol/L.The electrochemical sensor was sensitive,simple and low-cost,with good reproducibility and reliable stability,and could be used for detection of rutin in real samples such as compound rutin tablets and color chrysanthemi tablets,with spiked recoveries of 99.5%-102.0%.

Objective: To analyze and compare therapy responses, outcomes, and incidence of severe hematologic adverse events of flumatinib and imatinib in patients newly diagnosed with chronic phase chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) . Methods: Data of patients with chronic phase CML diagnosed between January 2006 and November 2022 from 76 centers, aged ≥18 years, and received initial flumatinib or imatinib therapy within 6 months after diagnosis in China were retrospectively interrogated. Propensity score matching (PSM) analysis was performed to reduce the bias of the initial TKI selection, and the therapy responses and outcomes of patients receiving initial flumatinib or imatinib therapy were compared. Results: A total of 4 833 adult patients with CML receiving initial imatinib (n=4 380) or flumatinib (n=453) therapy were included in the study. In the imatinib cohort, the median follow-up time was 54 [interquartile range (IQR), 31-85] months, and the 7-year cumulative incidences of CCyR, MMR, MR(4), and MR(4.5) were 95.2%, 88.4%, 78.3%, and 63.0%, respectively. The 7-year FFS, PFS, and OS rates were 71.8%, 93.0%, and 96.9%, respectively. With the median follow-up of 18 (IQR, 13-25) months in the flumatinib cohort, the 2-year cumulative incidences of CCyR, MMR, MR(4), and MR(4.5) were 95.4%, 86.5%, 58.4%, and 46.6%, respectively. The 2-year FFS, PFS, and OS rates were 80.1%, 95.0%, and 99.5%, respectively. The PSM analysis indicated that patients receiving initial flumatinib therapy had significantly higher cumulative incidences of CCyR, MMR, MR(4), and MR(4.5) and higher probabilities of FFS than those receiving the initial imatinib therapy (all P<0.001), whereas the PFS (P=0.230) and OS (P=0.268) were comparable between the two cohorts. The incidence of severe hematologic adverse events (grade≥Ⅲ) was comparable in the two cohorts. Conclusion: Patients receiving initial flumatinib therapy had higher cumulative incidences of therapy responses and higher probability of FFS than those receiving initial imatinib therapy, whereas the incidence of severe hematologic adverse events was comparable between the two cohorts.

Novel coronavirus Omicron variant infection can cause severe illness and even death in certain populations. Omicron variant infection may lead to systemic inflammatory response, coagulation disorder, multi-organ dysfunction and other pathophysiological changes, which are different from other Novel coronavirus variants to a certain extent, so therapeutic strategies should not be the same. The National Medical Center for Major Public Health Events invited experts in fields of infectious diseases, respiratory medicine, intensive care, pediatrics and fever clinic to develop this quick guideline based on the current best evidence and extensive clinical practices. This quick guideline aims to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of novel coronavirus Omicron infection, and to improve the disease management abilities of clinicians.

Azithromycin dry suspension is one of the most commonly used drugs in pediatric clinic, but its taste masking has been difficult to achieve. 5 representative products of azithromycin dry suspension were chose to compare their tastes both using electronic tongue and human sensory evaluation methods, and there existed the differences of bitterness, later bitterness, graininess, and adhesion among these products. Raman micro-imaging was used to determine the difference in taste mainly due to different prescription ingredients and manufacturing techniques. Through mixing the dry suspensions with alkaline mixing solvent, the bad taste of each product was masked after evenly dispersing in the solvent, and their tastes were all close to the taste of the solvent. In the future, it is planned to investigate the stability and bioavailability of the solvent preparations, and then to give the medication suggestion of solvent preparation after ensuring their efficacy.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the factors related to renal impairment in patients with diabetic kidney disease (DKD) from the perspective of integrated Chinese and Western medicine. METHODS: Totally 492 patients with DKD in 8 Chinese hospitals from October 2017 to July 2019 were included. According to Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) staging guidelines, patients were divided into a chronic kidney disease (CKD) 1-3 group and a CKD 4-5 group. Clinical data were collected, and logistic regression was used to analyze the factors related to different CKD stages in DKD patients. RESULTS: Demographically, male was a factor related to increased CKD staging in patients with DKD (OR=3.100, P=0.002). In clinical characteristics, course of diabetes >60 months (OR=3.562, P=0.010), anemia (OR=4.176, P<0.001), hyperuricemia (OR=3.352, P<0.001), massive albuminuria (OR=4.058, P=0.002), atherosclerosis (OR=2.153, P=0.007) and blood deficiency syndrome (OR=1.945, P=0.020) were factors related to increased CKD staging in patients with DKD. CONCLUSIONS Male, course of diabetes >60 months, anemia, hyperuricemia, massive proteinuria, atherosclerosis, and blood deficiency syndrome might indicate more severe degree of renal function damage in patients with DKD.
