This paper systematically expounds the core challenges and development vision facing transfusion medicine and discipline construction in China under the strategic goals of achieving "Chinese modernization" and "Healthy China". This article puts forward for the first time the "blood transfusion view" of Chinese blood transfusion practitioners and elaborates on key challenges in the field, including the disciplinary system, talent pool, service balance, technical bottlenecks and standardization in emerging fields. To address the challenges, it is urgently necessary to establish the disciplinary status of transfusion medicine, improve talent cultivation, enhance the integration of scientific research and technology, optimize transfusion assessment, promote autologous blood transfusion, advance the localization of evidence-based medicine, and expand the management functions of biological therapy. The ultimate goal is to build a modern blood transfusion system led by science and technology and with Chinese characteristics to safeguard people's health.

Transfusion and Anemia Expertise Initiative-Control/Avoidance of Bleeding developed a strategy for platelet and plasma infusion management in critically ill children based on systematic reviews and consensus meetings of international multidisciplinary experts. One good practice statement and six expert consensus statements were proposed for plasma and platelet transfusions in critically ill children following severe trauma, traumatic brain injury, and/or intracranial hemorrhage. This article introduces the specific methods and basis for the formation of recommendations in this part of the guide.

Objective: To investigate the current knowledge status of transfusion medicine among pediatricians/postgraduates and the reliability of large language models (LLMs) for assisted learning, and to assess changes in pediatricians' transfusion medicine knowledge before and after the implementation of the "Pediatric Transfusion Guideline" (hereafter referred to as the "Guideline"). Methods: In January 2022 (prior to the implementation of the "Guideline"), a questionnaire was developed based on the "Guideline" content and distributed to pediatricians. Subsequently, in July 2025 (after the implementation of the "Guideline"), the "Pediatric Transfusion Medicine Knowledge Questionnaire" was designed based on the content of the January 2022 questionnaire. This questionnaire survey was conducted on pediatricians/postgraduates and LLMs. We analyzed the level of transfusion medicine knowledge among pediatricians/postgraduates and the reliability of LLMs for assisted learning, and compared the accuracy of pediatricians' responses before and after "Guideline" implementation. Results: The survey results after the implementation of the "Guidelines" revealed that pediatricians/postgraduates achieved response accuracy rates exceeding 80% on the topic of "Patient Blood Management". However, response accuracy rates were below 30% for topics including "Types and Indications of Blood Components/Products" and "E-valuation of Transfusion Efficacy". The pediatricians' accuracy rates for related questions before and after the implementation of the "Guidelines" were 14.7%-68.9% and 3%-38%, respectively, and the comparison of accuracy rates for each question showed significant differences (P<0.001). The accuracy rates of the LLMs on the questionnaire were all below 90%. Among them, Doubao (81.1%) and Kimi (86.4%) achieved relatively higher accuracy rates, while Tencent Yuanbao (Hunyuan) had the lowest accuracy rate at only 59.5%. Conclusion: The implementation of the "Guideline" may have improved pediatricians' knowledge level of pediatric transfusion medicine. However, their knowledge level of pediatric transfusion remains low, and LLMs cannot yet provide absolutely reliable guidance. Systematic training in pediatric transfusion medicine is urgently needed.

Objective:To explore the correlation among disease uncertainty,quality of life and psychological resilience in patients undergoing radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.Methods:This study was a prospective study.A total of 106 patients who underwent radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer and were admitted to Shanxi Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital from July 2023 to July 2024 were included in observation group.Connor-davidson resilience scale(CD-RISC),Mishel disease uncertainty scale(MUIS)and European qrganization for research and treatment of cancer quality of life questionnaire-C30(EORCT QLQ-C30)were used to evaluate the psychological resilience,disease uncertainty and quality of life of observation group.Pearson test was used to analyze the correlations among disease uncertainty,quality of life and psychological resilience in patients undergoing radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to investigate the influencing factors of decreased postoperative psychological resilience in patients undergoing radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.Result:Pearson test analysis showed that,the MUIS score and EORCT QLQ-C30 score of patients undergoing radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer was negatively correlated with CD-RISC(P＜0.05).Through univariate analysis,age,educational level,annual family income,MUIS and EORCT QLQ-C30 were the influencing factors of decreased psychological resilience in patients undergoing radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer(P＜0.05).Multivariate logistic analysis showed that,increased age,educational level of primary school or below,annual family income＜50,000 yuan,increased MUIS score and increased EORCT QLQ-C30 score were independent risk factors for decreased psychological resilience in patients undergoing radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.Conclusion:The disease uncertainty,quality of life and psychological resilience of patients undergoing radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer are negatively correlated.Increased age,educational level of primary school or below,annual family income＜50,000 yuan,increased MUIS score and increased EORCT QLQ-C30 score are independent risk factors for decreased psychological resilience in patients undergoing radical gastrectomy for gastric cancer.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the differences in clinical efficacy between enhanced workflows and express workflows in robotic-assisted total hip arthroplasty(THA). METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 46 patients who underwent robotic-assisted THA between November 2020 and May 2021. They were divided into the enhanced workflows group and the express workflows group based on the surgical methods. There were 20 patients in the enhanced workflows group, including 11 males and 9 females;aged from 51 to 78 years old with an average of (67.30±7.52) years old. The BMI ranged from 18.24 to 24.03 kg·m^-2 with an average of(23.80±3.01) kg·m^-2. There were 26 patients in the express workflows group, including 12 males and 14 females;aged from 57 to 84 years old with a mean age of (67.58±7.29) years old, and their BMI ranged from 19.72 to 30.08 kg·m^-2 with an average of (24.41 ±2.92) kg·m^-2. The operation time, hospital stay, and perioperative complications of the patients were recorded. The postoperative acetabular prosthesis anteversion angle, abduction angle, limb length, and offset distance data were measured. The Harris hip score at the latest follow-up was recorded. RESULTS: All patients completed the surgery as planned and were followed up, with the follow-up period ranging from 47 to 54 months with a mean of (49.78±1.85) months and the length of hospital stay ranging from 2 to 11 days with an average of (6.57±1.82 ) days. The operation time of enhanced workflows group was (93.41±16.41) minutes, which was longer than that of the express workflow groups (75.19±18.36) minutes, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). In enhanced workflows group, the postoperative acetabular anteversion angle was (19.20±4.46)°, the limb length discrepancy was (-1.55±9.13) mm, and changes of the offset was (-5.15±6.77) mm. The corresponding values in express workflows group were (20.46±3.29)°, (2.19±4.39) mm, and (-2.39±4.34) mm, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in these indicators between the two groups(P>0.05). One patient in the enhanced workflows group developed deep venous thrombosis after surgery. No cases of dislocation or periprosthetic infection. At the latest follow-up, all patients had well-positioned prostheses without loosening. Harris hip score was (90.50±1.67) points in enhanced workflows group and (90.73±2.36) points in the express workflows group, with no statistically significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSION The clinical efficacy of robot assisted total hip arthroplasty technology is satisfactory. The enhanced workflows will increase the surgical time. For patients with normal anatomical hip joint disease, this study did not find significant advantages in joint stability and functional scoring for the enhanced workflows.

Extensive studies have identified potential adverse effects on semen quality of obesity, based on body mass index, but the association between body fat distribution, a more relevant indicator for obesity, and semen quality remains less clear. We conducted a longitudinal study of 4304 sperm donors from the Guangdong Provincial Human Sperm Bank (Guangzhou, China) during 2017-2021. A body composition analyzer was used to measure total and local body fat percentage for each participant. Generalized estimating equations were employed to assess the association between body fat percentage and sperm count, motility, and morphology. We estimated that each 10% increase in total body fat percentage (estimated change [95% confidence interval, 95% CI]) was significantly associated with a 0.18 × 10 6 (0.09 × 10 6 -0.27 × 10 6 ) ml and 12.21 × 10 6 (4.52 × 10 6 -19.91 × 10 6 ) reduction in semen volume and total sperm count, respectively. Categorical analyses and exposure-response curves showed that the association of body fat distribution with semen volume and total sperm count was stronger at higher body fat percentages. In addition, the association still held among normal weight and overweight participants. We observed similar associations for upper limb, trunk, and lower limb body fact distributions. In conclusion, we found that a higher body fat distribution was significantly associated with lower semen quality (especially semen volume) even in men with a normal weight. These findings provide useful clues in exploring body fat as a risk factor for semen quality decline and add to evidence for improving semen quality for those who are expected to conceive.
