: To analyze the prevalence of anemia and iron deficiency among primary and secondary school students in Rural Nutrition Improvement Program areas of Guizhou Province in 2023, and to explore the related factors, so as to provide evidence for Rural Nutrition Improvement Program optimization. Methods: In September 2023, a stratified random cluster sampling strategy was used to select 40 rural compulsory education schools with rural nutrition improvement program in five counties of Guizhou Province. School level questionnaire was employed to collect information of basic characteristics and school meal implementation. A total of 7 826 primary and secondary school students aged 6-16 underwent anthropometry and hemoglobin (Hb) determination; serum ferritin (SF) was additionally measured in a random subsample of 1 795 pupils. Students in Grade 3 and above also completed a questionnaire covering demographic characteristics, dietary behaviours and nutrition knowledge. Group comparisons were conducted by Chi square test or Fisher s exact test, and multivariable Logistic regression models were constructed to identify factors associated with anemia and iron deficiency. Results: The overall Hb level was (133.21±12.95)g/L, with an anemia prevalence of 7.17%. The overall SF level was (69.58±59.01)μg/L, with an iron deficiency prevalence of 2.73%. Multivariable analysis showed that stunting ( OR =1.88), school menus without nutrient calculation ( OR =1.61) and absence of menu planning software in the current semester ( OR =2.34) independently increased anemia risk, whereas obesity reduced it ( OR =0.54) (all P <0.05). Girls ( OR =4.16) and Grades 7-9 ( OR =5.93) increased iron deficiency risk (both P <0.05). Compared with rarely eating fresh vegetables, students with consuming <3 kinds per day ( OR =0.08) or exactly 3 kinds per day ( OR =0.06) had lower iron deficiency risks (both P <0.05). Conclusions Anemia and iron deficiency are prevalent among primary and secondary school students in Guizhou. Targeted intervention measures should be implemented for key populations to enhance the effectiveness of nutrition improvement program.

Objective To evaluate the advantages of powder-liquid double-chamber bag products compared with traditional powder injection. Methods The systematic review method was used to collect the literature on powder-liquid double-chamber bag, extract common evaluation indicators, evaluate the use value of powder-liquid double-chamber bag products, and conduct a comprehensive comparison with traditional powder injection products. Results A total of 23 articles were included in the literature. The effectiveness indicators used for evaluation were the stability of the liquid medicine, the accuracy of the preparation concentration, and the residual amount of the liquid medicine; the safety indicators were the incidence of insoluble particles and the incidence of punctures and scratches. The economic indicators were preparation cost, occupied volume of preparation supplies, waste weight, hospitalization cost and incidence of blood infection. The applicability indicators were preparation time, average occupation of medical staff, packaging weight and storage and transportation volume, environmental adaptability, and ease of waste disposal. Accessibility indicators are the number of manufacturers, raw material supply capacity, and patient affordability. Through the evaluation of literature evidence, it was found that the stability and concentration accuracy of the powder-liquid double-chamber bag were higher than those of the traditional powder injection, and the domestic supply had been achieved. The double-chamber bag method can reduce the infusion reaction and shorten the preparation time of the liquid medicine. Conclusion Compared with traditional powder injectabler products, powder-liquid double-chamber bags have advantages in the dimensions of effectiveness, safety, economy, suitability and innovation, and the accessibility dimension meets the requirements.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the efficacy of molecular targeted agents in children with progressive pediatric low-grade gliomas (pLGG). METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on pLGG patients treated with oral targeted therapies at the Department of Pediatrics, Beijing Shijitan Hospital, Capital Medical University, from July 2021. Treatment responses and safety profiles were assessed. RESULTS: Among the 20 enrolled patients, the trametinib group (n=12, including 11 cases with BRAF fusions and 1 case with BRAF V600E mutation) demonstrated 4 partial responses (33%) and 2 minor responses (17%), with a median time to response of 3.0 months. In the vemurafenib group (n=6, all with BRAF V600E mutation), 5 patients achieved partial responses (83%), showing a median time to response of 1.0 month. Comparative analysis revealed no statistically significant difference in progression-free survival rates between the two treatment groups (P>0.05). The median duration of clinical benefit (defined as partial response + minor response + stable disease) was 11.0 months for vemurafenib and 18.0 months for trametinib. Two additional cases, one with ATM mutation treated with olaparib for 24 months and one with NF1 mutation receiving everolimus for 21 months, discontinued treatment due to sustained disease stability. No severe adverse events were observed in any treatment group. CONCLUSIONS Molecular targeted therapy demonstrates clinical efficacy with favorable tolerability in pLGG. Vemurafenib achieves high response rates and induces early tumor shrinkage in patients with BRAF V600E mutations, supporting its utility as a first-line therapy.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of peripheral T-cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (PTCL-NOS). METHODS: Clinical data of 10 patients with PTCL-NOS in Gansu Provincial Hospital from May 2016 to June 2023 were collected. The treatment outcomes were evaluated, and the factors affecting prognosis were analyzed. RESULTS: The median age of onset for the 10 patients was 60.7 (47-75) years, with 7 males and 3 females. Nine cases received chemotherapy, while one case died suddenly after diagnosis, and the median course of chemotherapy was 6.9 (1-13) courses. Assessing the efficacy, 3 patients achieved complete remission (CR) while 7 patients showed progression. Age, sex, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) level, Ki-67 and the presence of hemophagocytic lymphohistocytosis (HLH) were not statistically correlated with CR rate ( P >0.05). Patients with IPI score 3-5, and Ann Arbor stage III-IV had statistically lower CR rates (both P <0.05). Age, B symptoms, LDH level ,hemoglobin, Ki-67 index and PLR value were not statistically correlated with overall survival (OS) time ( P >0.05). Male, platelet <150×10⁹/L, IPI score 3-5, Ann Arbor stage III-IV, presence of HLH, NLR≥4.05, and LMR <2.81 were statistically correlated with shorter OS (all P <0.05). Among the 10 patients, 3 cases have survived and are still in CR status, while 7 cases have died, with a median survival time of 7.5 (1-85) months. CONCLUSIONS Patients with IPI score 3-5 and Ann Arbor stage III-IV have low CR rate and poor prognosis. The OS of patients who are male, with platelet <150×10⁹/L, IPI score 3-5, Ann Arbor stage III-IV, complication of HLH, NLR≥4.05, and LMR <2.81 is short, and prognosis is poor.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH). METHODS: Clinical data of 78 patients with HLH admitted to Gansu Provincial People's Hospital from January 2014 to May 2023 were collected, and the correlation between relevant indicators and patient prognosis was analyzed. RESULTS: Among the 78 HLH patients, there were 48 males and 30 females, with a median age of onset of 48 (1-84) years old; 26 patients were treated with chemotherapy, 44 patients were treated with glucocorticoids, immunoglobulin or cyclosporine, 5 patients received symptomatic treatment, 1 patient received plasma exchange, and 2 patients refused treatment. By the end of the follow-up, there were 39 survivors, 35 deaths, and 4 patients lost to follow-up. There was no significant correlation between sex, ferritin, triglycerides, hemophagocytosis, bone marrow cellularity, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, SUV value of PET-CT, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), interleukin-6 (IL-6), platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) and overall survival (OS) of the patients (P >0.05). Patients with age≥60 years, neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) >0.59, red cell distribution width-to-platelet ratio (RPR) >0.30, lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR)≤2.74, red blood cell distribution width (RDW)>16.45%, tumor-associated HLH, aspartate aminotransferase (AST)≥148 U/L, procalcitonin (PCT)≥0.66 ng/ml, neutrophils (NEU) <2×10⁹/L, fibrinogen (FIB)<1.85 g/L, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)≥1 740 U/L, hemoglobin (Hb)<85 g/L, platelet (PLT)<57×10⁹/L had significantly shorter OS, with statistical significance (P < 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that LMR≤2.74, RDW>16.45%, LDH≥1 740 U/L, and NEU<2×10⁹/L were independent risk factors affecting OS in HLH patients (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Some blood-based inflammatory markers are significantly associated with OS in patients with HLH. NLR, RPR, LMR, RDW and PCT can be used to assess the prognosis of HLH patients, and RDW and LMR are independent factors affecting OS of HLH patients, which provide greater predictive value for prognosis. Hypercellular bone marrow in HLH patients may indicate a poor prognosis.

Objective To compare the differences in exosomes derived from testicular tissue between WT(wild type)mice and sdy mice with dysbindin-1(dystrobrevin binding protein 1)deletion mutations,and identify their protein components to explore the possible role of dysbindin-1 in the formation of exosomes derived from mouse testicular tissue.Methods The exosomes derived from mouse testicular tissue of WT and sdy mice were isolated by sucrose ultracentrifugation method.The expression of exosomes proteins was analyzed by Western blotting,the morphology of exosomes was observed by negative staining under transmission electron microscope(TEM),the particle size and distribution were analyzed by dynamic light scattering particle size analyzer,and the protein contents of exosomes were detected by mass spectrometry analysis.CD63+exosomes were obtained by immunoprecipitation with magnetic beads.Krt5(keratin5)protein was selected for validation.Results Dysbindin-1 deletion did not affect the morphology and quantity of exosomes,but decreased the expression of CD63,a marker of exosomes.Compared with the WT mice,there were 159 proteins that were highly expressed,209 proteins that were lowly expressed,and 184 proteins that were specifically expressed in the exosomes derived from sdy mice testicular tissue.In this experiment,CD63+exosomes from testicular tissue were obtained and 12 proteins were screened.There was indeed an interaction between krt5 protein and dysbindin-1.Interestingly,it was found that the expression of krt5 in the exosomes derived from sdy mice testicular tissue decreased after dysbindin-1 deletion.Conclusion After dysbindin-1 deletion,the morphology and quantity of exosomes derived from mouse testicular tissue are not affected,but dysbindin-1 may affect the types and content of exosomal proteins,by affecting the transport of exosome proteins through protein interactions.

Objective To investigate the incidence rate,clinical characteristics,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen,China.Methods Led by Shenzhen Children's Hospital,the Shenzhen Neonatal Data Collaboration Network organized 21 institutions to collect 36 cases of neonatal stroke from January 2020 to December 2022.The incidence,clinical characteristics,treatment,and prognosis of neonatal stroke in Shenzhen were analyzed.Results The incidence rate of neonatal stroke in 21 hospitals from 2020 to 2022 was 1/15 137,1/6 060,and 1/7 704,respectively.Ischemic stroke accounted for 75％(27/36);boys accounted for 64％(23/36).Among the 36 neonates,31(86％)had disease onset within 3 days after birth,and 19(53％)had convulsion as the initial presentation.Cerebral MRI showed that 22 neonates(61％)had left cerebral infarction and 13(36％)had basal ganglia infarction.Magnetic resonance angiography was performed for 12 neonates,among whom 9(75％)had involvement of the middle cerebral artery.Electroencephalography was performed for 29 neonates,with sharp waves in 21 neonates(72％)and seizures in 10 neonates(34％).Symptomatic/supportive treatment varied across different hospitals.Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assessment was performed for 12 neonates(33％,12/36),with a mean score of(32±4)points.The prognosis of 27 neonates was followed up to around 12 months of age,with 44％(12/27)of the neonates having a good prognosis.Conclusions Ischemic stroke is the main type of neonatal stroke,often with convulsions as the initial presentation,involvement of the middle cerebral artery,sharp waves on electroencephalography,and a relatively low neurodevelopment score.Symptomatic/supportive treatment is the main treatment method,and some neonates tend to have a poor prognosis.

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.
