Objective: To evaluate the methodological quality and reporting quality of clinical practice guidelines or expert consensus on blood transfusion and blood use (BTBU) in China (hereinafter referred to as "guidelines/consensus"), providing reference for the development and updating of future BTBU guidelines/consensus. Methods: A systematic search was conducted in Chinese databases such as China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Data, VIP Data-base, relevant guideline release platforms, and professional association websites. BTBU-related guidelines/consensus published between January 2006 and December 2025 were included. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, after completing literature screening and data extraction, three evaluators independently assessed the quality of the included literature using the Scientificity, Transparency, and Applicability of Guidelines Rating Tool (STAR), the Appraisal of Guidelines for Research and Evaluation Ⅱ (AGREE Ⅱ), and the International Practice Guideline Reporting Standards (RIGHT). Results: A total of 29 documents were included, including 5 guidelines, 22 consensus statements, and 2 protocols. The results of the STAR assessment showed that the total score was (21.7±8.8)%. The domain score ratios for registration, research protocol, funding, working group, conflict of interest, clinical question, evidence, consensus method, recommendation, accessibility and other domains were (2.2±12.1)%, 0, (36.7±25.1)%, (18.3±7.6)%, (19.2±15.3)%, (16.6±23.1)%, (15.1±6.3)%, (9.6±21.2)%, (54.3±18.4)%, (31.7±10.4)% and (10.3±31.0)%, respectively. For the AGREE Ⅱ assessment, the methodological quality of 26 articles was rated Grade B and 3 articles Grade C. The results of the RIGHT assessment indicated that the overall reporting rate of all guidelines/consensuses was (65.3±4.0)%. Conclusion: The methodological and reporting quality of current expert guidelines/consensus on BTBU in China still need improvement, and guidelines and consensus should be strictly formulated and standardized according to the standards of STAR, AGREE II and RIGHT.

Adipocytic tumors are the most common type of soft tissue tumors,which can be divided into lipomas and liposarcomas.Studies have found that benign lipomas resected from the same site can transform into liposarcomas,especially atypical lipomatous tumors(ALT),suggesting an underlying biological association.In this case,the patient underwent resection of a right neck mass in our hospital in 2017,and the pathology showed fibrolipoma.One year later,the mass recurred at the original site but was not treated.By 2023,the mass had significantly enlarged and extended deeply.MRI showed that the lesion had an unclear boundary with the surrounding fat,suggesting liposarcoma.Puncture and molecular pathology showed MDM2 gene amplification,and the diagnosis of ALT was made,which was confirmed by pathology after complete surgical resection.It can be seen that adipocytic tumors have great differences in biological behavior,and benign lipomas can transform into liposarcomas(especially ALT).Clinically,it is necessary to combine imaging,pathology and molecular detection(such as MDM2/CDK4)for differentiation to formulate treatment plans.

Objective To develop a new biological age model based on the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey(NHANES)database and evaluate its predictive performance for mortality outcomes.Methods After excluding pregnant women and those with incomplete clinical data,a total of 8 234 participants aged 20～79 years from NHANES 2007-2010 were included and assigned into a testing set,and another 17 522 non-pregnant participants(17～79 years old)subjected from NHANESⅢ were enrolled and served as a training set to construct the new biological age(new Bioage)model.Multiple linear regression was used to construct models for new Bioage and age-adjusted biological age(new-agefixed Bioage),and other types of biological ages were calculated.Pearson correlation analysis was performed to assess the correlation between biological age and chronological age.Based on new-agefixed Bioage,biological age acceleration was calculated,and then according to the results,the participants were divided into accelerated biological aging group(biological age acceleration≥0,n=3 884)and decelerated biological aging group(biological age acceleration<0,n=4 350).Weighted data comparisons were conducted using the survey package in R,and Cox regression analysis was used to assess the impact of biological age acceleration on the mortality of the participants.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was plotted to determine the effect of new-agefixed Bioage and biological age acceleration on the area under the curve(AUC)for the mortality.Results The new-agefixed Bioage model,composed of 9 variables,had the highest AUC value(AUC=0.889 2,P<0.001)in predicting mortality outcomes and showed high correlation with chronological age and other biological ages.The decelerated biological aging group had significantly larger proportions of males,whites,education level of high school or higher,middle to high household income,married(or with a partner),engaging in physical activity,having private insurance,and cancer(P<0.05),lower BMI,slower biological age acceleration level,and less proportions of smokers,hypertension,diabetes,cardiovascular disease,and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease when compared with the accelerated biological aging group(P<0.05).Cox regression analysis indicated that,compared to the decelerated biological aging group,the accelerated biological aging group had a significantly increased risk of mortality in Model3[adjust for age group,gender,race,BMI,education level,household income,married(or with a partner),smoking status,heavy alcohol consumption,insurance status,physical activity,hypertension,diabetes,cardiovascular disease,chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,and cancer](HR=1.62,95%CI:1.28-2.06,P<0.001).ROC curve analysis revealed that new-agefixed Bioage significantly increased the AUC values(AUC=0.781,P<0.001;AUC=0.731,P<0.001)for middle-aged and elderly populations,while biological age acceleration significantly improved the AUC values(AUC=0.756,P<0.001)for the middle-aged population.Conclusion The new-agefixed Bioage model demonstrates high correlation with chronological age and other biological ages,and has good predictive performance for mortality outcomes,particularly in middle-aged and elderly populations.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical effectivess of Nuangong Tiaojing Decoction （暖宫调经汤） combined with ginger moxibustion at Baliao acupoints （Eight Bone-Holes） for treating premature ovarian failure （POF） of yang-deficiency uterus-coldeness syndrome， based on conventional western medical treatment. MethodsA total of 130 patients diagnosed with POF of yang-deficiency uterus-coldeness syndrome were divided into a treatment group and a control group， with 65 cases in each group， based on patient preference. The control group received conventional western medicine treatment， while the treatment group was additionally given Nuangong Tiaojing Decoction orally one dose per day and underwent ginger moxibustion at Baliao points once daily. Both groups were treated for three months. Before and after treatment， ovarian function indicators， including ovarian volume， follicle count， ovarian peak systolic velocity （PSV）， and endometrial thickness were assessed， and serum sex hormone levels including progesterone （P）， estradiol （E₂）， follicle-stimulating hormone （FSH）， luteinizing hormone （LH）， prolactin （PRL）， and testosterone （T）， as well as anti-Müllerian hormone （AMH） levels were also measured. Additionally， traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） syndrome scores were evaluated， covering symptoms such as reduced libido， lumbosacral pain， fear of cold with cold extremities， fatigue， dull complexion， lower abdominal distension and pain， pale tongue， and deep and rough pulse. After treatment， clinical effectiveness and safety were determined. ResultsCompared with the pre-treatment levels within group， both groups showed significant increases in ovarian volume， follicle count， PSV， endometrial thickness， and levels of P， E₂， and AMH after treatment， while the levels of FSH， LH， PRL， and T， as well as scores of lumbosacral pain， reduced libido， dull complexion， deep and rough pulse， and total TCM syndrome scores significantly reduced after treatment. Furthermore， the treatment group exhibited higher ovarian volume， follicle count， PSV， endometrial thickness， and levels of P， E₂， and AMH compared to the control group， while FSH， LH， PRL， T levels， and all symptom scores， as well as total TCM syndrome scores， were significantly lower in the treatment group than in the control group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. The clinical effectiveness in treatment group was 96.92% （63/65）， significantly higher than 81.54% （53/65） in control group （P＜0.05）. The incidence of adverse reactions in the treatment group was 26.15% （17/65）， while in the control group it was 32.31% （21/65）， with no statistically significant difference （P＞0.05）. ConclusionOn the basis of conventional western medicine treament， Nuangong Tiaojing Decoction combined with ginger moxibustion at Baliao acupoints for patients with POF of yang-deficiency uterus-coldeness syndrome can significantly improve ovarian function and clinical symptoms， regulate hormone levels， and thereby enhance clinical effectiveness.

Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease(CJD)is a rapidly progressive and fatal neurodegenerative disorder caused by prions,with certain infectivity and iatrogenic transmission risks.With the rapid progress and application of new dia-gnostic biomarkers and detection methods,as well as the construction and improvement of surveillance and reporting systems,the detection of CJD in patients domestically and internationally has shown an increasing trend year by year.Due to its long incubation period and heterogeneity of early symptoms,early identification and diagnosis of the disease is difficult,increasing the risk of transmission within medical institutions.Currently,there is a lack of con-sensus on the infection prevention and control of CJD.In order to timely identify and diagnose CJD as well as effec-tively block its transmission in medical institutions,this consensus summarizes 15 clinical concerns and formulates 24 specific recommendations based on the latest domestic and international research findings and clinical evidence,as well as combines with clinical practice,aiming to standardize healthcare-associated infection prevention and control measures for CJD and reduce its transmission risk in medical institutions.

Objective:The development and application of end-of-life patient decision aids for elderly were systematically reviewed and analyzed in order to supply guidance for the design of localized patient decision aids in China.Methods:Using the Scoping Review Guidelines as a methodological framework, a systematic search was conducted across databases including China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, China Biology Medicine, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, and BIOSIS. The search period covered from the inception of these databases to October 31, 2023. Two professionally trained researchers were responsible for screening, extracting, and organizing the retrieved literature.Results:A total of 5 studies on decision aids were included. These primarily employed paper graphics, interactive web pages, or multimedia slides as formats. The content encompassed various aspects such as palliative care options along with their pros and cons, assisting patients in clarifying their personal values, encouraging patients to document their decision-making preferences, and initiating end-of-life conversations with family members. Age-friendly design strategies were adopted in 4 studies; efficacy was validated in 3 studies, and in two of these studies, significant improvements were observed in engagement of patients (or substitute decision-makers) in ACP and the consistency of decision preferences (both P< 0.05). Conclusions:End-of-life decision aids for elderly patients can improve decision-making outcomes to some extent, however, the form and quality standards of them need to be improved, and their long-term effect needs further research and verification. It is recommended that in the future, the needs for end-of-life decision-making should be properly assessed based on the health literacy level, and high-quality localized end-of-life decision aids should be developed and popularized.

A 57-year-old female patient with small cell lung cancer was treated with serplulimab (100 mg by intravenous infusion on the first day, 21 days as a cycle). After the 10th cycle of treatment, the patient suddenly presented drowsiness, shortness of breath, dry mouth, nausea, vomiting, fatigue and other symptoms. Laboratory tests showed fasting blood glucose 38.9 mmol/L, glycosylated hemoglobin 7.9%, serum C peptide 0.2 μg/L, pH value 7.05, anion gap 31 mmol/L, anti-islet cell antibody 36 kU/L, anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody 131 kU/L, urine ketone body (+++). The patient was diagnosed with fulminant type 1 diabetic ketoacidosis, which was considered to be related to serplulimab. The drug was stopped, and insulin, rehydration, correction of acid-base imbalance, and other treatments were given. After 3 days, the patient′s consciousness returned to normal. After 12 days, her breathing was stable, dry mouth, nausea, vomiting and other symptoms were relieved. Laboratory tests showed random blood glucose 13.6 mmol/L, pH value 7.44, anion gap 6 mmol/L, and urine ketone body negative. After 26 days, her random blood glucose was controlled at 10.0-12.0 mmol/L.

To investigate the feasibility and advantages of "Axis Coordinate Localization Method" combined with total endoscopic technique for parotid surgery. A total of 31 patients with parotid gland tumors who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2022 to August 2024 were included in this study. The cohort comprised 11 males and 20 females, with age of (38.9±13.9) years and a maximum tumor diameter of (19.34±6.89) mm. Among these cases, 93.5% (29/31) involved the superficial lobe and 6.5%(2/31) the deep lobe of the parotid gland. The "axial" localization method was utilized to plan the surgical approach: establishing a coordinate system with the earlobe as the origin, the surface projection of the parotid duct as the x-axis, and a perpendicular line through the origin as the y-axis. The incision type-pre-tragal, retroauricular groove, or postauricular hairline-was selected according to the position of the tumor′s surface projection center within this coordinate system. All operations were performed using a complete endoscopic technique for tumor and glandular tissue resection. Postoperative facial nerve function was assessed with the House-Brackmann grading scale, while patient incision satisfaction, impact on work and daily life, and facial symmetry were quantitatively evaluated using a Numerical Rating Scale (10-point system).　All 31 patients successfully underwent the procedure. Short-term postoperative complications included temporary facial paralysis in 1 case (3.2%), periauricular numbness in 1 case (3.2%), surgical site effusion in 1 case (3.2%), and subcutaneous hematoma in 1 case (3.2%). All complications resolved after appropriate management. During follow-up, there were no instances of sialocele, Frey syndrome, incision infection, or tumor recurrence. Patient ratings were as follows: incision satisfaction (9.42±0.78), impact of surgery on daily life (1.32±0.60), and facial symmetry (9.29±0.78). The one case of temporary facial paralysis recovered 3 months after surgery. The combination of the "Axial" localization method and fully endoscopic technique demonstrates clear clinical feasibility in parotid tumor resection. This approach enables rapid and personalized incision selection based on tumor location, while the endoscopic minimally invasive technique reduces tissue trauma, improves cosmetic outcomes, and enhances surgical safety. It provides a new minimally invasive treatment pathway for patients with benign parotid tumors.
