[Objective] To assess the data characteristics of quality monitoring indicators for red blood cell (RBC) preparations, so as to provide reference for continuous improvement of blood quality. [Methods] The quality inspection data of 6 types of RBC preparations from Chongqing blood center from 2019 to 2023 were summarized. For the same indicators, the numerical range of quality indicators was monitored by comparing different types of preparations with the national standard GB18469. The loss and/or damage to RBCs caused by different preparation process were compared, and the impact of different preparation processes on the quality of RBCs was discussed. [Results] The appearance and sterility test compliance rates of the six types of RBC preparations were both 100%, while the compliance rates of other items were all ≥75%. The compliance rate of hematocrit for suspended RBCs was the lowest at 75%, with a median of 0.52, which was close to the lower limit of GB18469, while the medians of hematocrit for the other types were all at the midline level of GB18469. The Hb content for different types of RBCs was significantly higher than the corresponding requirements of GB18469 (P<0.05). The hemolysis rate at the end of storage for different types of RBCs was significantly lower than the requirements of GB18469 (P<0.05). The 1 U leukoreduction process resulted in a hemoglobin content loss of about 5% and had a significant impact on the hemolysis rate at the end of storage (P<0.05). The washing process resulted in a hemoglobin content loss of <3% and had no significant impact on the hemolysis rate at the end of storage (P>0.05). The concentration process resulted in a hemoglobin content loss of <3% and had a significant impact on the hemolysis rate at the end of storage (P<0.05). [Conclusion] The impact of different processes on RBC preparations is within a controllable range and meets the requirements of GB18469. The quality monitoring data can provide a reference for clinical blood selection, effectiveness evaluation and revision of related standards.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the ameliorative effect of ursolic acid on skin inflammation in rats with allergic contact dermatitis （ACD）， and explore its mechanism of action based on the Notch1/hairy and enhancer of split 1 （Hes1） signaling pathway. METHODS The ACD model was established by skin application of 2， 4-dinitrochlorobenzene. Forty successfully modeled rats were randomly divided into model control group （MC group）， ursolic acid low-dose group （UA-L group， 50 mg/kg）， ursolic acid high-dose group （UA-H group， 100 mg/kg）， and ursolic acid high-dose+Notch1 activator group （UA-H+Jagged1 group， 100 mg/kg ursolic acid+50 ng/kg Jagged1）， with 10 rats in each group. Another 10 rats with only hair shedding were selected as the normal control group. Rats in the administration groups were given the corresponding dose of ursolic acid intragastrically or/and Jagged1 by intraperitoneal injection once a day for 14 consecutive days. Twenty-four hours after the last treatment， the skin inflammation status and dermatitis scores of rats in each group were detected. The levels of interleukin-6 （IL-6）， IL-17 and IL-10 in serum and skin tissue were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to detect the pathological morphology of the skin tissue. Immunohistochemical staining and immunoblotting assay were used to detect the protein expressions of Notch1 and Hes1 in skin tissues. RESULTS Compared with the MC group， both the UA-L group and UA-H group exhibited significantly lower dermatitis scores， along with varying degrees of reduction in histopathological skin damage such as inflammatory cell infiltration. Additionally， the levels of IL-6 and IL-17 in serum and skin tissues were markedly decreased， while the levels of IL-10 were significantly increased in both groups； protein expressions of Notch1 and Hes1 were decreased significantly （P＜0.05）， and the improvements in the aforementioned indicators were more significant in the UA-H group （P＜0.05）. Jagged1 could significantly weaken the improvement effects of UA-H on the above indicators （P＜0.05）. CONCLUSIONS Ursolic acid may attenuate the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and enhance the expression of anti-inflammatory factors by blocking Notch1/Hes1 signaling pathway， thereby improving dermatitis symptoms in ACD rats.

Objective:To investigate the application effect of the comprehensive innovative teaching model with "3D printed model combined with visual surgical simulation" as the core in the clinical teaching of extremity bone defects.Methods:The physicians who participated in the clinical management of patients with extremity bone defects in Department of Orthopedics, Peking University Third Hospital, from March 2019 to December 2021 were selected as subjects and were divided into standardized training group with 52 physicians and refresher physician group with 58 physicians. Teaching and training was performed for the special disease of extremity bone defects, including basic knowledge teaching, dressing change for infected wounds, multidisciplinary discussion, digital surgical simulation, and practical surgical operation. The assessment indices for teaching quality included the assessment of theoretical knowledge and clinical skills, the objective evaluation of the clinical ability of patient management, and an investigation of the degree of satisfaction. SPSS 22.0 was used for the t-test and the chi-square test. Results:After training, both groups had significant increases in the assessment scores of theoretical knowledge [(32.4±6.7）and (42.2±3.8)] and clinical practice skills [(19.6±2.0), (20.8±2.2), (20.5±2.5), (21.5±2.3)]( P<0.05). After training, the standardized training group had significant increases in the scores of six objective evaluation indicators [(8.3±0.8) vs. (6.9±1.1), (7.4±0.7) vs. (6.3±1.5), (7.2±1.3) vs. (5.0±1.4), (7.9±1.2) vs. (4.0±1.5), (8.4±0.8) vs. (6.4±1.6), (40.3±2.6) vs. (28.6±2.4)]( P<0.01), while the refresher physician group had significant improvements in four aspects, i.e., the understanding of extremity bone defects [(8.1±0.9) vs. (7.2±1.1)], the self-confidence in facing complex extremity bone defects [(8.1±1.2) vs. (6.6±0.9)], spatial thinking ability in repair surgery for bone defects [(8.6±0.8) vs. (7.3±0.9)], and overall clinical performance in actual management of patients with bone defects [(41.4±2.3) vs. (37.3±1.8)] ( P<0.01). The satisfaction score for this comprehensive innovative teaching model was (95.3±3.2) points in the standardized training group and (94.8±2.8) points in the refresher physician group. Conclusions:The comprehensive innovative teaching model with "3D printed model combined with visual surgical simulation" as the core can significantly improve the basic knowledge and clinical skills of physicians in a short period of time and meet the needs for learning surgical techniques and advanced diagnosis and treatment concepts among refresher physicians.

Aim To investigate the regulatory effects of chlorogenic acid(CGA)on mitochondrial autophagy and inflammation in ox-LDL induced foam cells through PINK1/Parkin signaling pathway.Methods RAW264.7 macrophages were divided into the control group,model group,CGA-L group,CGA-M group,CGA-H group and CGA-H+Mdi group.Oil red O method was used to identify cell foam.The intervention concentration of CGA was determined by CCK-8 meth-od.The mitochondrial structure was observed by trans-mission electron microscope.The expression of IL-1 β,IL-18 and IFN-γ was detected by ELISA.The expres-sion of genes and proteins associated with PINK1/Par-kin mitochondrial autophagy pathway was detected by qRT-PCR and immunofluorescence labeling.Results Oil red O staining showed that the foam cell model was successfully prepared.Compared with the model group,mitochondrial damage was significantly reduced after CGA intervention at different concentrations,and the expressions of PINK1,Parkin,p-Parkin,PHB2 and LC3 Ⅱ were induced,while the expression of TOMM20 was inhibited.The expressions of IL-1 β,IL-18 and IFN-γ decreased(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01).Compared with the CGA-H group,the CGA-H+Mdi group significantly increased mitochondrial damage,in-hibited the expression of PINK1,Parkin,p-Parkin,PHB2,LC3 Ⅱ,induced the expression of TOMM20,and enhanced the expression of IL-1 β,IL-18,IFN-γ(P＜0.01).Conclusions CGA can induce mitochon-drial autophagy in foam cells by regulating PINK1/Par-kin pathway and inhibit the overexpression of pro-in-flammatory factors IL-1 β,IL-18 and IFN-y,which may be one of the anti-atherosclerosis mechanisms of CGA.

Modern Chinese medicine studies have confirmed that the interaction between traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)and intestinal flora is the key to the treatment of diseases with tradi-tional Chinese medicine.This interplay includes such activities as:traditional Chinese medicine can be metabolized by intestinal flora into effective components with different biological activities from its precursors;TCM chemicals improve the composition of gut microbiota,consequently ameliorating its dysfunction as well as associated pathological conditions;and gut microbiota mediate the interactions between the multiple chemicals in TCM.There-fore,it becomes an important way to understand the modern sci-entific connotation of traditional Chinese medicine theory to study the pharmacological mechanism of the efficacy of traditional Chi-nese medicine by targeting Gut microbiota.

Objective To monitor the susceptibility of clinical isolates to antimicrobial agents in tertiary hospitals in major regions of China in 2022.Methods Clinical isolates from 58 hospitals in China were tested for antimicrobial susceptibility using a unified protocol based on disc diffusion method or automated testing systems.Results were interpreted using the 2022 Clinical &Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI)breakpoints.Results A total of 318 013 clinical isolates were collected from January 1,2022 to December 31,2022,of which 29.5％were gram-positive and 70.5％were gram-negative.The prevalence of methicillin-resistant strains in Staphylococcus aureus,Staphylococcus epidermidis and other coagulase-negative Staphylococcus species(excluding Staphylococcus pseudintermedius and Staphylococcus schleiferi)was 28.3％,76.7％and 77.9％,respectively.Overall,94.0％of MRSA strains were susceptible to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole and 90.8％of MRSE strains were susceptible to rifampicin.No vancomycin-resistant strains were found.Enterococcus faecalis showed significantly lower resistance rates to most antimicrobial agents tested than Enterococcus faecium.A few vancomycin-resistant strains were identified in both E.faecalis and E.faecium.The prevalence of penicillin-susceptible Streptococcus pneumoniae was 94.2％in the isolates from children and 95.7％in the isolates from adults.The resistance rate to carbapenems was lower than 13.1％in most Enterobacterales species except for Klebsiella,21.7％-23.1％of which were resistant to carbapenems.Most Enterobacterales isolates were highly susceptible to tigecycline,colistin and polymyxin B,with resistance rates ranging from 0.1％to 13.3％.The prevalence of meropenem-resistant strains decreased from 23.5％in 2019 to 18.0％in 2022 in Pseudomonas aeruginosa,and decreased from 79.0％in 2019 to 72.5％in 2022 in Acinetobacter baumannii.Conclusions The resistance of clinical isolates to the commonly used antimicrobial agents is still increasing in tertiary hospitals.However,the prevalence of important carbapenem-resistant organisms such as carbapenem-resistant K.pneumoniae,P.aeruginosa,and A.baumannii showed a downward trend in recent years.This finding suggests that the strategy of combining antimicrobial resistance surveillance with multidisciplinary concerted action works well in curbing the spread of resistant bacteria.

Objective:To explore the correlation between peripheral blood B cell count and clinical features and prognosis of patients with newly diagnosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL).Methods:The relationship of peripheral blood B cell count with clinical features,laboratory indexes and prognosis in 67 patients with newly diagnosed DLBCL was retrospectively analyzed.Results:Patients were divided into low B-cell count group(B cell＜0.1 × 109/L,n=34)and high B-cell count group(B cell≥0.1 × 109/L,n=33)according to the median B cell count values.Compared with the high B cell count group,the low B cell count group had a higher proportion of patients with Lugano stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ,elevated LDH,elevated β2-MG and IPI score 3-5 and increased CRP(P=0.033,0.000,0.023,0.001,0.033).The peripheral CD3+and CD4+cell counts of patients in the low B cell count group were significantly lower than those in the high B cell count group(P=0.010,0.017).After initial treatment,overall response rate(ORR)and complete remission(CR)rate in high B cell count group were significantly higher than those in low B cell count group(P=0.032,0.013).The median follow-up time of patients was 23(2-77)months,progression-free survival(PFS)and overall survival(OS)of patients in the high B cell count group were significantly better than those in the low B cell count group(P=0.001,0.002).Univariate analysis showed that pretreatment low B cell count in the peripheral blood was associated with shortened PFS and OS(HR=4.108,P=0.002;HR=8.218,P=0.006).Multivariate analysis showed that low B cell count was an independent prognostic factor for shortened PFS(HR=3.116,P=0.037).Conclusion:Decreased peripheral blood B cell count in newly diagnosed DLBCL patients is associated with high-risk clinical features and may affect the efficacy of immunochemotherapy,which is associated with poor clinical prognosis.

Objective:To explore the clinical features and prognosis of patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma(PCNSL).Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on the relationship between clinical features,treatment regimen and prognosis in 46 newly diagnosed patients with primary central nervous system lymphoma who were diagnosed and treated in The Second Hospital of Lanzhou University from January 2015 to September 2022.Fisher's exact probability method was used to analyze the differences in clinical data of different subgroups.Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to analyze the overall survival rate and progression-free survival rate of patients with different treatments,and the factors influencing survival were analyzed.Results:Among 46 patients with PCNSL,which pathological type were diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL).There were 26(56.5％)cases of male and 20(43.5％)of female,with a median age of 54(17-71)years.In Hans subtypes,14 cases(30.4％)of GCB subtype,32 cases(69.6％)of non-GCB subtype.32 cases(69.6％)of Ki-67 ≥80％.Among 36 patients who completed at least 2 cycles of treatment with follow-up data,the efficacy evaluation was as follows:overall response rate(ORR)was 63.9％,complete response(CR)rate was 47.2％,17 cases of CR,6 cases of PR.The 1-year progression-free survival rate and 1-year overall survival rate was 73.6％and 84.9％,respectively.The 2-year progression-free survival rate and 2-year overall survival rate was 52.2％and 68.9％,respectively.The ORR and CR rate of 17 patients treated with RMT regimen was 76.5％and 52.9％(9 cases CR and 4 cases PR),respectively.Univariate analysis of 3 groups of patients treated with RMT regimen,RM-BTKi regimen,and RM-TT regimen as first-line treament showed that deep brain infiltration was associated with adverse PFS(P=0.032),and treatment regimen was associated with adverse OS in PCNSL patients(P=0.025).Conclusion:Different treatment modalities were independent prognosis predictors for OS,the deep brain infiltration of PCNSL is a poor predictive factor for PFS.Patients with relapse/refractory(R/R)PCNSL have a longer overall survival time because to the novel medication BTKi.They have strong toleration and therapeutic potential as a first-line therapy for high-risk patients.

Objective:To investigate gene mutation characteristics of primary central nervous system lymphoma(PCNSL)through whole exome sequencing(WES)to 18 patients with PCNSL.Methods:Tumor tissues from 18 patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma who were diagnosed with PCNSL in Department of Hematology,Lanzhou University Second Hospital from September 2018 to December 2020 and had normal immune function,no history of HIV or immunosuppressant therapy were collected.High-throughput-based WES was performed on the tumor tissues,with an average sequencing depth of＞100 x.After data processing and bioinformatics analysis of sequencing results,the mutation maps and mutation characteristics of 18 PCNSL patients were obtained.Results:Obvious somatic mutations were detected in all 18 patients.The median number of somatic mutations was 321.Missense mutations were most prominent(accounting for about 90％),and the mutation type was dominated by C＞T(50.2％),reflecting the age-related mutation pattern.Among the top 15 frequently mutated genes,PSD3,DUSP5,MAGEB16,TELO2,FMO2,TRMT13,AOC1,PIGZ,SVEP1,IP6K3,and TIAM1 were the driver genes.The enrichment results of driver gene pathways showed that RTK-RAS,Wnt,NOTCH,Hippo and Cell-Cycle pathways were significantly enriched.The tumor mutation burden was between 3.558 48/Mb and 8.780 89/Mb,and the average was 4.953 32/Mb,which was significantly higher than other cancer research cohorts in the TCGA database.Conclusions:PCNSL occurs somatic missense mutations frequently,mainly point mutations,and the mutation type is mainly C＞T.The driver genes are mainly involved in RTK-RAS,Wnt,NOTCH and Hippo pathways,indicating that the above pathways may be related to the pathogenesis of PCNSL.PCNSL has a significantly high tumor mutation burden,which may explain the efficacy of PD-1 inhibitors in PCNSL.

AIM To explore the clinical effects of Shiyan Prescription on patients with ulcerative colitis due to Bowel Dampness-Heat Stagnation.METHODS Eighty-two patients were randomly assigned into control group(41 cases)for 8-week administration of Mesalazin Enteric-coated Tablets,and observation group(41 cases)for 8-week administration of both Shiyan Prescription and Enteric-coated Tablets.The changes in clinical effects,TCM syndrome scores,serum inflammatory factors(interleukin-6,interleukin-22,interleukin-33),intestinal mucosal barrier function indices(diamine oxidase,D-lactic acid,endotoxin),intestinal flora(Escherichia coli,Enterococcus,Bifidobacterium,Lactobacillus)and GQOLI-74 scores were detected.RESULTS The observation group demonstrated higher total effective rate than the control group(P＜0.05).After the treatment,the two groups displayed decreased TCM syndrome scores,serum inflammatory factors,intestinal mucosal barrier function indices(P＜0.05),increased GQOLI-74 scores(P＜0.05),reduced Enterococcus(P＜0.05),and enhanced Bifidobacterium,Lactobacillus(P＜0.05),especially for the observation group(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION For the patients with ulcerative colitis due to Bowel Dampness-Heat Stagnation,Shiyan Prescription can enhance life quality with obvious clinical effects.
