Objective:To compare the efficacy of whole blood (WB) versus component therapy (COMP) in the resuscitation of patients with traumatic shock.Methods:A systematic literature search was conducted using PubMed and Embase databases for English literature published from January 2006 to December 2023. Studies on the comparative efficacy of WB versus COMP in resuscitation of patients with traumatic shock were all included. Patients were categorized according to the initial transfusion strategies into WB group and COMP group. Primary outcome indicators were extracted and subjected to meta-analysis, including transfusion requirements after admission (4-hour red blood cell requirement, 4-hour plasma requirement, 4-hour total transfusion volume, 24-hour red blood cell requirement, 24-hour plasma requirement, and 24-hour total transfusion volume), length of hospital stay, length of ICU stay, and mortality rates (early mortality, 24-hour mortality, late mortality, and in-hospital mortality, and 24-hour mortality with multiple variables adjusted).Results:Twenty-seven studies involving 15 176 patients (4 692 patients in WB group and 10 484 in COMP group) were included. Meta-analysis results indicated that the 4-hour red blood cell requirement (SMD=-0.44, 95% CI -0.69, -0.19, P<0.01), 4-hour plasma requirement (SMD=-0.25, 95% CI -0.50, -0.01, P<0.05), 24-hour red blood cell requirement (SMD=-0.22, 95% CI -0.36, -0.09, P<0.01), and 24-hour mortality with multiple variables adjusted ( OR=0.78, 95% CI 0.68, 0.91, P<0.05) were significantly reduced in WB group. No significant differences were observed between the two groups regarding 4-hour total transfusion volume, 24-hour plasma requirement, 24-hour total transfusion volume, length of hospital stay, length of ICU stay, early mortality, 24-hour mortality, late mortality, and total in-hospital mortality ( P>0.05). Conclusions:WB demonstrates certain advantages over COMP in the resuscitation of patients with traumatic shock by reducing 4-hour red blood cell requirement, 4-hour plasma requirement, 24-hour red blood cell requirement, and 24-hour mortality with multiple variables adjusted. However, WB and COMP demonstrate comparable effectiveness in reducing 4-hour total transfusion volume, 24-hour plasma requirement, 24-hour total transfusion volume, early mortality rate, 24-hour mortality rate, late mortality rate, and in-hospital mortality.

Objective To investigate the effect of concentrated growth factor(CGF)on angiogenesis in human microvascular endothelial cells(HMEC-1)and explore the underlying mechanisms.Methods HMEC-1 were divided into the control group,CGF group,and CGF+LY294002 group.Cell proliferation,migration,and tubule formation abilities were measured and compared using the Cell Counting Kit-8(CCK-8),Transwell assay,and tube formation assay,respectively.The protein expression levels of phosphoinositide 3-kinase(PI3K),phosphorylated PI3K(p-PI3K),phospho-protein kinase B(Akt),phosphorylated Akt(p-Akt),mam-malian target of rapamycin(mTOR),and phosphorylated mTOR(p-mTOR)were detected and compared by Western blot.Results Compared with the control group,the CGF group exhibited enhanced cell proliferation,migration,and tubule formation abilities(P＜0.05),along with increased expression levels of p-PI3K,p-Akt,and p-mTOR(P＜0.05).Compared with the CGF group,the CGF+LY294002 group demonstrated reduced cell proliferation,migration,and tubule formation abilities(P＜0.05),accompanied by decreased expression levels of p-PI3K,p-Akt,and p-mTOR(P＜0.05).Conclusion CGF promotes the proliferation,migration,and angiogenesis of HMEC-1 via the PI3K/mTOR/Akt pathway.

Objective To evaluate the application value of soluble leukocyte differentiation antigen 14-sub-type(sCD14-ST),soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1(sTREM-1)and blood routine in the diagnosis of bacterial bloodstream infections,and to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods A total of 148 patients who received medical treatment and underwent physical examinations at the General Hospital of Central Theater Command and Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Hubei Province from January 2022 to December 2023 were selected as the research subjects.Among them,48 patients with positive blood bacterial cultures were classified as the bloodstream infection group.Fifty patients with negative blood culture but positive bacterial culture results in sputum,urine,stool,purulent secretions and other sam-ples were taken as the local infection group,and 50 healthy individuals who underwent physical examinations were taken as the control group.The levels of serum sCD14-ST and sTREM-1 in each group were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to analyze the efficacy of indicators such as sCD14-ST,sTREM-1 and blood routine in diagnosing bacterial bloodstream infections.Results Compared with the control group,the levels of white blood cells(WBC),neutrophils(N),monocytes,neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio(NLR),monocyte/lymphocyte ratio,platelet/lymphocyte ratio,sTREM-1 and sCD14-ST in the bloodstream infection group and the local infection group were significantly in-creased,while the level of lymphocytes was significantly decreased.The difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).The results of ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve(AUC)of WBC,N and NLR in diagnosing bacterial bloodstream infections was>0.6,indicating good diagnostic efficacy for bacterial bloodstream infections.The results of ROC curve analysis showed that the AUC of sCD14-ST in diagnosing bacterial bloodstream infections was 0.748(95%CI:0.664-0.831),and the cut-off value was 0.39 ng/mL.The AUC of sTREM-1 in diagnosing bacterial bloodstream infections was 0.670(95%CI:0.578-0.761),and the cut-off value was 25.18 pg/mL.The AUC of WBC+sCD14-ST,sTREM-1+sCD14-ST,WBC+sTREM-1+sCD14-ST,WBC+N+sTREM-1+sCD14-ST,and WBC+N+NLR+sTREM-1+sCD14-ST were 0.720,0.747,0.756,0.760,0.806 respectively.sCD14-ST was negatively correlated with PLT(r=-0.214,P<0.05).Conclusion WBC,N,NLR,sTREM-1 and sCD14-ST have certain diagnostic values for evaluating bacterial bloodstream infections.

Objective To experimentally verify the precision and accuracy of determining tritiated water in ambient air using the desiccant adsorption sampling–high temperature negative pressure desorption of liquid water (containing HTO)–liquid Scintillation counter method, and to provide technical support for developing standard methods for monitoring tritiated water in ambient air. Methods The relative standard deviation and recovery of multi-group samples were verified by collecting, testing, and analyzing environmental samples with different activity concentrations. The uncertainty of the method was evaluated, the main uncertainty components were identified, and the reliability of measurement results was analyzed. Through experimental comparison of different methods, the differences in the test results of different methods were examined. Results The relative standard deviation of multiple samples ranged from 6.7% to 7.9%, the recovery ranged from 95.7% to 97.3%, and the uncertainty was greatly affected by the sample counting rate, with no significant difference as compared to condensation sampling method. Conclusion The precision and accuracy of this method meet the requirements of environmental authorities for monitoring tritiated water in ambient air, and it can be widely used in the monitoring of tritiated water in ambient air.

Objective To explore the method for measurement of tritium in nuclear power plant liquid effluent purified by a mixed ion-exchange resin, to verify the feasibility of the method by experiments, and to provide technical support for the development of standard methods for the measurement of tritium in liquid effluent of nuclear power plants. Methods The purification effect of the mixed ion-exchange resin was determined by measuring the quenching factor, conductivity, and β-nuclide adsorption efficiency of the samples purified using the resin. A comparison was made between the ion-exchange resin method and the atmospheric distillation method for tritium determination. The precision and accuracy of the method were verified by calculating the relative standard deviation and the recovery in repeated measurement of samples with different activity concentrations and spiked samples. Results There were no significant differences in quenching factor, conductivity, and tritium activity concentration between the two methods. The adsorption efficiencies of EC20MB resin for common β-nuclides such as carbon, iron, nickel, strontium, yttrium, and cesium ranged from 99.28% to 99.88%. Repeated measurement of the same sample showed relative standard deviations of 5.2%-9.4% and recoveries of 86.8%-107%. Conclusion There were no significant differences between the results of the ion-exchange resin purification method and the atmospheric distillation method. The precision and accuracy of the method met the requirements of the ecological and environmental management authorities for monitoring tritium in liquid effluent from nuclear power plants. This method can be widely used in daily monitoring work.

Objective:To explore the clinical characteristics of superior mesenteric artery ischemic diseases.Methods:The clinical and followup data of 141 hospitalized patients with ischemic disease of superior mesenteric artery in the Affiliated Hospital of Southwest Medical University from 1999 to 2021 were reviewed.Results:There were 99 males (70.2%) and 42 females (29.8%). The average age of the patients was (63.75±13.16) years; 127 patients (90.1%) complained abdominal pain.The number of all-cause deaths in the perioperative period was 27 (19.1%). ROC curve analysis showed that the optimal cutoff value of the age with predictive value was 64.5 years. The results of multivariate COX regression analysis showed that age ≥65 years old ( HR=3.855, 95% CI: 1.739-8.545), neutrophil count ( HR=1.072, 95% CI: 1.018-1.130), heart failure ( HR=2.863, 95% CI: 1.332-6.154), creatinine ( HR=1.009, 95% CI: 1.003-1.015), D-Dimer ( HR=1.112, 95% CI: 1.025-1.205) was an independent risk factor for all-cause death from superior mesenteric artery ischemic disease. Long-term survival rate of SMAD group was significantly higher than that of other SMAID; By comparing the clinical characteristics of different SMAID, neutrophil count, neutrophil ratio, D-dimer of SMAE group and SMAT group were significantly higher than that of SMAD group and ASSMA group. Conclusions:SMAID usually occurs in elderly men over 65 years old, with abdominal pain as the main symptom and often accompanied by hypertension. Risk factors included age, increased WBC count and D-dimer; The neutrophil count, neutrophil ratio, D-dimer in SMAE and SMAT group were significantly higher than that of SMAD and ASSMA group.

Tic disorders(TD)including Tourette syndrome are childhood-onset neurodevelopmental disorders characterized by motor and/or vocal tics that commonly affect children′s physical and mental health.More than half of TD patients also have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD). The pathogenesis of TD is not clear, and it is believed to be related to the abnormal level of neurotransmitters caused by the dysfunction of the cortical-striatal-thalamic-cortical circuitry, and the disorder of neurotransmitters is also related to the pathogenesis of ADHD, but the current research results on the level of neurotransmitters in TD with comorbid ADHD are controversial, and even some neurotransmitters show completely opposite changes in the two diseases.This paper reviews the research progress of neurotransmitters in children with TD co-suffering from ADHD in recent years, in order to provide ideas for exploring its pathogenesis.

In this study, the psbA-trnH sequence was used as DNA barcoding to evaluate the accuracy and stability for identification of Bamboo shavings, Concretio Silicea Bambusae and their closely related species. 56 samples were collected and conducted the DNA extraction. Obtained sequences were assembled using the CodonCode Aligner V4.2, the genetic distances and NJ tree were computed and constructed using MEGA 5.0. The results shows that the maximum intra-specific K2P distances were less than the minimum inter-specific K2P distances. The NJ tree indicated that Bamboo shavings, Concretio Silicea Bambusae and their closely related species can be distinguished from each other clearly, except for Bambusa tuldoides Munro and Bambusa textilis, which perhaps attributed to their closely genetic relationship.
