Rhabdomyolysis is a clinical syndrome characterized by damage to the integrity of skel-etal muscle cell membranes,massive release of intracellular contents(such as myoglobin,creatine ki-nase,and electrolytes)into the bloodstream,thereby triggering systemic pathophysiological responses.Its most common and severe complication is acute kidney injury,primarily resulting from the combined effects of myoglobin deposition in renal tubules and renal ischemia.Due to lack of specific early clini-cal manifestations,patients are often misdiagnosed or experience delayed treatment,which can lead to exacerbation of the condition and even life-threatening consequences.This article reports a case of a patient who presented with unexplained rhabdomyolysis at onset and subsequently developed acute kid-ney injury during the course of the disease.A systematic analysis and discussion of the potential etiolo-gy are conducted based on the patient's clinical features and laboratory test results.

Objective:
This study aimed to determine the predictive performance of non-contrast CT (NCCT) signs for hemorrhagic growth after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) when stratified by onset-to-imaging time (OIT).
Materials and Methods:
1488 supratentorial ICH within 6 h of onset were consecutively recruited from six centers between January 2018 and August 2022. NCCT signs were classified according to density (hypodensities, swirl sign, black hole sign, blend sign, fluid level, and heterogeneous density) and shape (island sign, satellite sign, and irregular shape) features. Multivariable logistic regression was used to evaluate the association between NCCT signs and three types of hemorrhagic growth: hematoma expansion (HE), intraventricular hemorrhage growth (IVHG), and revised HE (RHE). The performance of the NCCT signs was evaluated using the positive predictive value (PPV) stratified by OIT.
Results:
Multivariable analysis showed that hypodensities were an independent predictor of HE (adjusted odds ratio [95% confidence interval] of 7.99 [4.87–13.40]), IVHG (3.64 [2.15–6.24]), and RHE (7.90 [4.93–12.90]). Similarly, OIT (for a 1-h increase) was an independent inverse predictor of HE (0.59 [0.52–0.66]), IVHG (0.72 [0.64–0.81]), and RHE (0.61 [0.54– 0.67]). Blend and island signs were independently associated with HE and RHE (10.60 [7.36–15.30] and 10.10 [7.10–14.60], respectively, for the blend sign and 2.75 [1.64–4.67] and 2.62 [1.60–4.30], respectively, for the island sign). Hypodensities demonstrated low PPVs of 0.41 (110/269) or lower for IVHG when stratified by OIT. When OIT was ≤ 2 h, the PPVs of hypodensities, blend sign, and island sign for RHE were 0.80 (215/269), 0.90 (142/157), and 0.83 (103/124), respectively.
Conclusion
Hypodensities, blend sign, and island sign were the best NCCT predictors of RHE when OIT was ≤ 2 h. NCCT signs may assist in earlier recognition of the risk of hemorrhagic growth and guide early intervention to prevent neurological deterioration resulting from hemorrhagic growth.

Objective To study dynamic compression performance of adipose tissues, so as to further reveal the damage mechanism, and provide references for medical treatment.Methods Based on the improved split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) experimental device, the adipose tissue dynamic compression experiment was conducted. The stress-strain curves of adipose tissues at different strain rates were obtained. Then the numerical model of SHPB was established, and the experimental process was simulated and analyzed. The numerical simulation for penetration process of 32 mm diameter rubber non-lethal projectile into the simulated target in human abdomen was carried out.Results Adipose tissues had a noticeable strain rate effect. The stress-strain curves at two high strain rates were approximately straight lines. The slope was similar, and the elastic modulus was 3.25 MPa, which was about 6 times of that under a quasi-static state. The simulation curves of fat SHPB were consistent with the experimental curves, which verified correctness of the constitutive model. In the process of non-lethal projectile penetrating human abdomen, an annular convex area similar to water wave appeared on skin surface, and the fat layer absorbed about 67% of the impact kinetic energy.Conclusions The experimental data of adipose tissues are very accurate. Numerical simulation can reproduce the penetration process well, and provide references for studying the damaging effect of non-lethal weapons on human body.

OBJECTIVES:
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for 85% of all lung cancer, with highmorbidity and mortality rate. Nove drug development for NSCLC is urgently needed.This study aims to investigate the activity of lathyrol derivatives and the mechanism for its inhibitory effect on the growth of NSCLC cells.
METHODS:
Three lathyrol derivatives were synthesized from lathyrol and their structures were verified by nuclear magnetic resonance. MTT assay was used to detect the effects of the lathyrol derivatives on the proliferation activity of NSCLC cells (A549 and H1299 cells), and the compound with the best activity was selected for subsequent experiments. Colony forming assay, wound-healing assay, and transwell assay were applied to detect in vitro cell proliferation, migration and invasion ability in A549 and H1299 cells, respectively. Quantitative real-time RT-PCR and Western blotting were performed to detect mRNA and protein levels of E-cadherin, N-cadherin, β-catenin, and MMP2 in A549 cells, respectively.
RESULTS:
Three lathyrol derivatives inhibited the growth of A549 and H1299 cells in a dose-dependent manner, and they showed a weak inhibitory effect on normal cells Beas-2B and 16HBE, indicating that they possessed certain selective toxic effects. Therefore, C-5 benzoylated lathyrol with the best activity was selected as the ideal drug for the subsequent experiments. Compared with the control group, the number and size of cell clusters in the treatment group of A549 and H1299 cells were significantly decreased, the relative mobility were significantly decreased, and the number of invaded cells were significantly decreased (all P<0.05), indicating that the in vitro cell proliferation, migration and invasion ability were decreased. The mRNA levels of integrin α2, integrin β1, MMP2, MMP9, β-catenin, and N-cadherin were decreased, while the expression of E-cadherin was increased (all P<0.05). The protein levels of N-cadherin, β-catenin, MMP2, and integrin αV were decreased, while the expression of E-cadherin was increased (all P<0.05).
CONCLUSIONS
The lathyrol derivatives synthesized in this study possess good inhibitory activity against NSCLC. Among them, C-5 benzoylated lathyrol significantly inhibits the proliferation, migration, and invasion ability of NSCLC cells in vitro through regulating the process of epithelial-mesenchymal transition.

【Objective】 To analyze and evaluate the occurrence of adverse reactions to incompatible blood component transfusion in patients undergoing ABO-incompatible allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (ABO-incompatible allo-HSCT) in our hospital, and provide a basis for clinical safety management of incompatible blood component transfusion. 【Methods】 The case data of 467 ABO-incompatible allo-HSCT patients with incompatible blood components transfused in our hospital from June 2021 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, and the adverse reactions to blood transfusion that occurred were diagnosed according to the clinical manifestations and changes before and after blood transfusion as well as the results of related laboratory tests. The evaluation was based on three aspects as the degree of certainty of the type of reaction, the severity of it, and its probablity associated with blood transfusion. 【Results】 The overall incidence of adverse reactions to transfusion of incompatible blood components was 30.19% (141/467). The incidence occurred in suspended red blood cells were 42.86%(15/35), apheresis platelets 39.25%(73/186), frozen plasma 28.26%(26/92), cryoprecipitated coagulation factors 19.05%(8/42) and washed red blood cells 16.96%(19/112). The incidence of adverse reactions of washed red blood cells and suspended red blood cells was statistically different(P<0.05). The types of adverse reactions were mainly allergic reactions (67.37%, 95/141), followed by non-hemolytic febrile reactions (22.69%, 32/141), transfusion-related graft-versus-host disease(2.84%, 4/141), acute hemolytic transfusion reactions(2.84%, 4/141), transfusion-related hypotension(2.84%, 4/141) and 2 cases (1.42%, 2/141) of other adverse reactions. A total of 141 adverse reactions were graded: 113 cases (80.14%, 113/141) were " sure" , 20 cases (14.19%, 20/141) were " basically sure" , 8 cases were " suspected" (5.67%, 8/141); 130 cases (92.20%, 130/141) were " mild" , and 10 cases (7.09%, 10/141) were" moderate" , 1 case was " severe" (0.71%, 1/141). As to the occurrence associated with blood transfusion: 117 cases (82.98%, 117/141) were " highly correlated" , 17 cases (12.06%, 17/141) were " likely correlated" , and 7 cases (4.96%, 7/141) were " less correlated" . 【Conclusion】 Evaluating and grading the adverse reactions to transfusion of incompatible blood components can deepen the cognition of clinical medical staff, increase the accuracy and rigor of their judgment of adverse reactions, and avoid the missed and false reports of adverse reactions to a certain extent, which laid the foundation for the establishment of a unified standard for adverse reactions to incompatible blood transfusion.

Objective:To understand the characteristics and associated factors of newly reported HIV/AIDS cases with non-marital or non-commercial heterosexual transmission, in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region (Guangxi), 2015-2018.Methods:Information of newly reported HIV/AIDS cases aged ≥18 years in Guangxi between 2015 and 2018 was collected from the National Comprehensive HIV/AIDS Information System. Unconditional logistic regression model was used to access those factors that were associated with HIV infections through non-marital or non-commercial heterosexual contact.Results:Between 2015 and 2018, a total number of 35 497 HIV/AIDS cases, aged ≥18 years were newly reported in Guangxi. Among them, 32 648 (92.0 %) were infected heterosexually while 10 500 were infected through non-marital or non-commercial heterosexual behavior. Non-marital or non-commercial heterosexual transmission accounted for 29.6 % (10 500/35 497) of the newly reported HIV/AIDS cases, and 32.2 % (10 500/32 648) of those with heterosexual transmission. Males counted for 53.5 % (5 617/10 500) of non-marital or non-commercial heterosexual transmission and males to females ratio was 1.2∶1 (5 617∶4 883). Those married or had regular sexual partners counted for 55.9 % (5 873/10 500). Commercial heterosexual transmission appeared the main mode of HIV transmission for males (64.4 %,16 516/25 633) while main mode for females was non-marital or non-commercial heterosexual transmission and counted for 49.5 % (4 883/9 864). Results from the multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that adjusted OR of female HIV/AIDS infected HIV via non-marital or non-commercial heterosexual transmission, was 3.98 times (95 %CI: 3.78-4.20) hight than that of males. Among the group aged<50 years and the aged 50-59 years, the adjusted ORs were 1.35 times (95 %CI: 1.27-1.44) and 1.13 times (95 %CI: 1.05-1.21) hight than that of aged ≥60 years. Those who were single/divorced/widowed, the adjusted OR was 1.53 times (95 %CI: 1.45-1.61) hight than that of those married/regular partners. Those with junior high school education, high school education and above the adjusted ORs were 1.22 times (95 %CI: 1.16-1.29) and 1.18 times (95 %CI: 1.10-1.27), compared to those only with education levels of primary school or below. Conclusions:The number of HIV/AIDS cases via non-marital or non-commercial heterosexual transmission accounted for nearly 30.0 % of all the routes of HIV transmission in Guangxi, 2015-2018. Female, aged<60 years old, single/divorced/widowed and having had junior and above high school education etc., appeared as risk factors on non-marital or non-commercial heterosexual transmission, among newly reported HIV/AIDS in Guangxi.
