Trauma is the main cause of death and disability. Patients with severe trauma have hemorrhagic shock, traumatic coagulopathy and other diseases, which increase the risk of death. Platelets are important in the hemostatic response, but their function is rapidly dysregulated in trauma patients, leading to traumatic coagulopathy, blood loss, and early death. In addition to their role in hemostasis, platelets act as coordinators of the initial immune response, which can lead to immunothrombosis, organ dysfunction, and increased late mortality. At present, the treatment of post traumatic platelet dysfunction is mainly based on early hemostasis, and late prevention and treatment of thrombosis and organ dysfunction. In this review, the characteristics, underlying mechanisms, diagnosis and treatment strategies of platelet dysfunction in different periods are summarized, to provide ideas for studying the mechanism of platelet dysfunction after trauma and the treatment strategy for trauma patients.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression levels of EZH2 and KMT2D in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and their relationship with pathological features. METHODS: 84 patients with DLBCL treated in our hospital from January 2021 to June 2022 were selected as the study subjects, and clinical characteristics such as sex, age and pathological classification of the patients were collected. Immunohistochemistry was used to detecet the expression of KMT2D and EZH2 proteins in tumor tissue cells of the DLBCL patients. The differential expression of KMT2D and EZH2 in subgroups of different sexes, ages, primary sites, clinical stages, Hans subtypes, etc. were compared. The correlation between the expression of KMT2D and EZH2 protein and BCL-6, CD79A was analyzed and validated through the interaction of protein molecular structures. We followed up and recorded the survival status of the patients for 12 months, and analyzed the factors that affect the mortality of DLBCL patients. RESULTS: The positive rate of KMT2D and EZH2 was high (over 95%) in DLBCL patients. There was no significant difference in the expression of EZH2 and KMT2D among subgroups of different sexes, ages and stages (P >0.05). However, patients with different levels of BCL-6 and CD79A expression showed differences in EZH2 and KMT2D expression (P < 0.05). EZH2 and KMT2D were positively correlated with BCL-6 (r =0.391, r =0.332) and CD79A (r =0.309, r =0.258), respectively, and there were interactions in the protein molecular structures. The risk factors for mortality in DLBCL patients include male sex (OR =1.106, 95%CI : 1.082-1.130, P < 0.001), stage II (OR =1.778, 95%CI : 1.567-2.016, P < 0.001), stage IV (OR =2.233, 95%CI : 2.021-2.467, P < 0.001), EZH2 positive (OR =2.762, 95%CI : 1.304-5.850, P =0.008), BCL-6 positive (OR =7.309, 95%CI : 1.340-39.859, P =0.022), age≥74 years (OR =3.080, 95%CI : 1.658-5.723, P < 0.001), and 63-73 years old (OR =2.400, 95%CI : 1.564-3.682, P < 0.001), while KMT2D positive (OR =0.180, 95%CI : 0.054-0.608, P =0.006) and 41-51 years old (OR =0.406, 95%CI : 0.274-0.603, P < 0.001) were factors which could reduce the risk of mortality. CONCLUSION EZH2 and KMT2D are highly expressed in patients with DLBCL, and they are positively correlated with BCL-6 and CD79A, and affect the prognosis of DLBCL patients.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the relationship between serum levels of fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23), heparanase (HPSE) and early renal impairment (RI) in patients with multiple myeloma (MM). METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 125 MM patients who were initially diagnosed in the Department of Hematology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Baotou Medical College, Inner Mongolia University of Science and Technology from June 2020 to June 2023. The patients were divided into RI group (>176.80 μmol/L) and non-RI group (≤176.80 μmol/L) based on their serum creatinine levels when diagnosed. The baseline data and laboratory indexes of the two groups were compared. The relationship between serum FGF-23, HPSE and early RI in MM patients was analyzed. RESULTS: Among 125 newly diagnosed MM patients, 33 cases developed early RI, accounting for 26.40%. The proportion of light chain type, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), blood uric acid, lactate dehydrogenase, FGF-23, and HPSE levels in RI group were higher than those in non-RI group (all P <0.05). There was no statistical significant difference in other data between the two groups (P >0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that BUN, FGF-23 and HPSE were associated with early RI in MM patients (all P <0.05). The serum FGF-23 level was divided into Q1-Q4 groups by quartile, and the serum HPSE level was divided into q1-q4 groups. The correlation analysis showed that with the increase of serum FGF-23 and HPSE levels, the incidence of early RI increased (r =0.668, 0.592). Furthermore, logistic regression analysis showed that after controlling for confounding factors, elevated levels of serum FGF-23 and HPSE were still influencing factors for early RI in MM patients (OR>1, P <0.05). According to Pearson's linear correlation test, there was a positive correlation between serum FGF-23 level and HPSE level (r =0.373). CONCLUSION There is a certain correlation between serum levels of FGF-23, HPSE and early RI in MM patients, and the incidence of early RI is higher in patients with abnormally high levels of both.

Purpose::To explore the effect of green channel for stroke patients on the treatment of severe aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.Methods::This is a retrospective case-control study. The clinical data of patients with severe aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage admitted to the emergency department of our hospital from January 2015 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients diagnosed with subarachnoid hemorrhage, confirmed intracranial aneurysm by preoperative CT angiography or digital subtraction, graded Hunt-Hess grade III, IV, and V, < 72 h from the onset to the time of consultation received surgical treatment in our hospital were included in this study. Patients with serious underlying diseases, such as heart, liver, kidney diseases, or malignant tumors, traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage, previous history of cerebral hemorrhage, and incomplete data were excluded. The control group included patients with severe aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage admitted from January 2015 to December 2018 before the establishment of the green channel for stroke patients, and the observation group included patients with severe aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage admitted from January 2019 to June 2022 after the establishment of the green channel. The control group received routine treatment in the emergency department; the observation group received improved treatment of green channel for stroke patients. Gender, age, Hunt-Hess grade on admission, modified Rankin scale (mRS) on admission, aneurysm location, aneurysm size and whether accompanied by intracerebral hemorrhage, the time from onset to emergency department, the time from emergency department to vascular diagnostic examination, the time from onset to surgery, the time from emergency department to surgery, the time from hospital admission to surgery, length of hospital stay, complications, treatment effect were analyzed and compared between the 2 groups. SPSS 23.0 software was utilized to conduct comparisons between the 2 groups. The t-test, Chi-square test, or Mann-Whitney U test was chosen based on the data type. Statistical significance was established when p < 0.05. Results::A total of 71 patients were included in this study, of whom 37 were in the control group and 34 were in the observation group. There were no statistical differences in age, gender, Hunt-Hess grade, mRS scores, aneurysm location, aneurysm size, intracerebral hemorrhage, the time from onset to emergency department, length of hospital stay, complications between the observation group and the control group (all p > 0.05). The time (min) from visit to vascular diagnostic test (60.50 vs. 120.00, p =0.027), the time (min) from onset to surgery (1792.00 vs. 2868.00, p =0.023), the time (min) from emergency department to surgery (1568.50 vs. 2778.00, p =0.016), the time (min) from hospital admission to surgery (1188.50 vs. 2708.00, p =0.043), all of them were shorter in the observation group than those in the control group. The relative values of admission and 7-day postoperative mRS scores and the relative values of admission and discharge mRS scores ≥ 2 were used as the criteria for determining better efficacy, and the treatment effect was better than that in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (admission to 7 days postoperative mRS score ≥ 2, 17 (50.0 %) vs. 8 (21.6 %), p =0.012; admission to discharge mRS score ≥ 2, 19 (55.9 %) vs. 11 (29.7 %), p =0.026). Conclusion::The green channel for stroke patients with severe aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage can effectively shorten the time from arrival at the emergency department to vascular diagnostic examination and the time from the emergency department to surgery, and achieve a better therapeutic effect, which is worth popularizing and applying.

AIM:To investigate the mechanism of hyperplasia of mammary gland(HMG)and the potential differential metabolites in rats based on the serum metabolomics assessment by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(LC-MS).METHODS:Twelve specific-pathogen-free(SPF)-grade female Wistar rats were randomly and equally as-signed to the normal and model groups.The model group received intramuscular injections of estradiol benzoate(0.5 mg·kg-1·d-1)for 21 d,followed by intramuscular injections of progesterone(4 mg·kg-1·d-1)for 7 d for preparing the HMG model.The body weight and nipple diameter of the rats were measured,and the histopathological changes in their mamma-ry gland were monitored.After the successful establishment of the model,rat serum was collected for LC-MS metabolomics analysis,the differential metabolites in the serum of the normal and model group rats were analyzed by principal compo-nent analysis(PCA)and partial least squares discriminant analysis(PLS-DA),and the metabolic pathway analysis of dif-ferential markers through the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)open database was performed.RE-SULTS:Compared with the normal rats in the control group,no significant change was observed in the body weight(P>0.05),the diameter of the nipple was significantly enlarged(P<0.01),the hematoxylin-eosin(HE)staining section of the mammary gland displayed typical HMG morphology,which together indicated that the modeling was successful.The metabolic patterns of the serum samples from both groups were significantly different,and 30 potentially differential metab-olites were identified based on the variable importance in projection(VIP)≥2.0 and P<0.05,mainly including 3-dehydro-cholic acid,alcoholic acid,glycocholate-3-sulfate,glycine-deoxycholan-3-sulfate,glycine-deoxycholan-3-sulfate,3a,7b,and 12a trihydroxycholan-3-sulfate,cholic acid,and glycolic acid.Further receiver operating characteristic(ROC)analysis revealed that the area under the curve(AUC)of the 13 metabolites was>0.9,implying the possible high sensitiv-ity for the diagnosis of HMG.According to the KEGG pathway enrichment analysis,most of the differential metabolites were mainly concentrated in aldosterone synthesis and secretion,sphingomyelin metabolism,arachidonic acid metabo-lism,apoptosis and cholesterol metabolism.CONCLUSION:The pathogenesis of estrogen-and progesterone-induced HMG in rats may be related to the altered bile acids,their derivatives metabolism,and the lipid metabolism pathways.The 13 differential metabolites identified by serum metabolomics with high sensitivity may thus provide a reference for the diagnosis of HMG.

Objective To analyze the effects of three sterilization methods,namely,pressure steam,low-temperature plasma and ethylene oxide,on the magnetic flux of magnetic surgical devices and their sterilization costs.Methods A total of 234 magnetic surgical devices of different specifications and models(magnetic rings)were randomly divided into Group A,Group B and Group C after the paired number was labelled,and each group consisted of 78 pieces(39 pairs).After packaging each pair of devices according to sterilization specifications,Group A was sterilized by pressure steam,Group B was sterilized by low-temperature plasma,and Group C was sterilized by ethylene oxide.We measured the magnetic flux of three sets of magnetic rings before and after sterilization,and comparatively analyzed the sterilization cost and sterilization time of the single package.Results There was no statistically significant difference in the impact of the three sterilization methods on the magnetic flux of the magnetic surgical devices(P＞0.05),but there was a significant difference in the magnetic flux before and after sterilization for each sterilization method(P＜0.001);the sterilization cost was(1.96±0.16)yuan for Group A,(23.17±0.32)yuan for Group B,and(8.16±0.18)yuan for Group C,showing statistically significant differences among the three groups(P＜0.01).The sterilization time was(65.21±3.36)min for Group A,(45.46±1.39)min for Group B,and(1020.38±12.21)min for Group C,with statistically significant differences among the three groups(P＜0.01).Conclusion None of the three sterilization methods affects the magnetic flux of the magnetic surgical devices.Pressure steam method shows the lowest cost of single package,low-temperature plasma method shows the highest cost of single package,while ethylene oxide method shows the highest sterilization time.Pressure steam should be the preferred sterilization method for magnetic surgical devices.

Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT)is one of the main treatment methods for hematological malignancies.With the continuous improvement and popularization of transplantation technology,it has brought hope for prolonging the lives and improving the survival rate of patients with hematological malignancies. However,postoperative invasive fungal infection (IFI)is the most common infectious complication and the main cause of death,with difficult early diagnosis and extremely high mortality.This paper summarizes the latest research progress on the pathogenic types,diagnostic methods,high-risk factors and treatment regimen of Candida,Aspergillus and Mucor associated with postoperative IFI,which is expected to provide references for improving the early diagnosis rate and treatment effectiveness of postoperative IFI.

Objective:To analyze the expression of MCP-1 and CCR2 in newly diagnosed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma(DLBCL),and to evaluate their correlation with clinicopathological features and prognosis.Methods:A total of 141 patients with DLBCL diagnosed and treated in the Department of Hematology,the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College from January 2017 to May 2022 were retrospectively collected.The clinical characteristics,pathological data and prognostic factors of the patients were collected.Immunohistochemical staining was used to detect the expression of MCP-1 and CCR2 in the tissues of newly treated DLBCL patients,and to analyze the relationship between MCP-1 and clinical characteristics,prognosis and survival of patients.Results:The expression of MCP-1 and CCR2 were correlated with Ann Arbor stage,IPI score,lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),Ki-67 index and therapeutic effect.There were no significant correlation between the expression of MCP-1 or CCR2 and other clinical histopathological parameters such as gender,age,β2-microglobulin,BCL-2,BCL-6,Hans classification,initial location,B symptoms,bone marrow involvement.There was a statistical difference in OS and PFS between the MCP-1 or CCR2 positive group and the negative group,which was associated to poor prognosis.Univariate Cox regression analysis showed that β2-microglobulin,Ki-67 index,IPI score,MCP-1,CCR2 expression levels and disease remission affected the PFS and OS of DLBCL patients(P＜0.05).Gender,age,LDH,BCL-2,BCL-6,Hans classification,primary tumor site,B symptoms,bone marrow involvement,Ann Arbor stage had no effect on PFS and OS(P＞0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that β2-microglobulin,Ki-67 index,IPI score,MCP-1,CCR2 expression levels and disease remission were independent influencing factors of patients(P＜0.05).Conclusion:The expression rate of MCP-1 or CCR2 in newly treated DLBCL is high,and it is correlated with the clinical features of poor prognosis such as stage and LDH of DLBCL patients,which is a poor prognostic factor affecting PFS and OS.

Objective:To investigate the expression level of urothelial carcinoembryonic antigen 1(lncRNA UCA1)in the bone marrow of acute myeloid leukemia(AML)patients,and to explore the clinical significance of lncRNA UCA1 expression level in AML patients.Methods:Bone marrow samples of 50 AML patients were collected as experimental group,and bone marrow samples of 20 iron deficiency anemia(IDA)patients were collected as control group.The relevant clinicopathological characteristics of AML patients were collected.Real-time quantitative PCR(qRT-PCR)was used to detect the expression level of lncRNA UCA1 in the experimental and control groups,and the relationships between lncRNA UCA1 expression and clinical pathological characteristics and prognosis in AML patients were analyzed.Kaplan-Meier curves were used to analyze the effect of lncRNA UCA1 on the overall survival(OS)of AML patients;And Cox regression model was used to analyze the factors affecting the prognosis of AML patients.Results:Compared with the control group,the expression level of lncRNA UCA1 was significantly elevated in patients with AML(P＜0.001);The proportion of patients with hemoglobin lower than 90 g/L in lncRNA UCA1 high expression group was significantly higher than that in lncRNA UCA1 low expression group(P=0.004);The expression level of lncRNA UCA1 was higher in M1,M2,and M4 subtypes,while it was lower in M0 and M5 subtypes,and the difference was statistically significant(P=0.009).There were no significant difference in sex,age,white blood cell(WBC)count,platelet(PLT)count,bone marrow blasts,chemotherapy regimen and efficacy,karyotype,gene mutation,and prognostic risk stratification between patients in UCA1 high expression group and those in UCA1 low expression group(all P＞0.05).The OS of patients with high expression of lncRNA UCA1 was significantly shorter than that of patients with low expression of lncRNA UCA1(P=0.0229).Conclusion:The expression level of lncRNA UCA1 is significantly upregulated in AML patients.High expression of lncRNA UCA1 is associated with poor clinicopathological features and poor prognosis.Therefore,lncRNA UCA1 can be used as a prognostic indicator and a potential therapeutic target for AML patients.

Gongju(Chrysanthemum morifolium) is one of the five major medicinal Chrysanthemum varieties included in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. In recent years, its cultivation areas have changed significantly, resulting in mixed quality of the medicinal herbs. In this study, Gongju cultivated in Anhui, Yunnan, Chongqing, and other places were selected as research objects. Hyperspectral data were collected in the visible-near-infrared(VNIR) and short-wave infrared(SWIR) bands using different modes, such as corolla facing up(A) and flower base facing up(B). After pre-processing the hyperspectral data using five methods, including multiplicative scatter correction(MSC), Savitzky-Golay smoothing(SG), first derivative(D1), second derivative(D2), and standard normal variate(SNV), partial least squares discriminant analysis(PLSDA), random forest(RF), and support vector machine(SVM) were used to establish origin identification models of Gongju at the two geographical scales of the province and the city-county in Anhui province. The accuracy of the prediction results was used as an evaluation index to select the optimal models, and the classification performance of the models was evaluated by confusion matrix. The results showed that the flower base facing up(B) collection model combined with second derivative pretreatment and RF method was the best model for both geographical scale identification models. The modeling effect of the full-band(VNIR + SWIR) was slightly better than that of the single band, with the accuracy of the prediction set in the province and city-county regions reaching 99.69% and 99.40%, respectively. The competitive adaptive reweighted sampling algorithm(CARS), successive projections algorithm(SPA), and variable iterative space shrinkage approach(VISSA) were further used to screen the feature wavelength modeling. The number of feature wavelengths screened by CARS was fewer, and the prediction set accuracy of the two geographical scales models after optimization could reach 99.56% and 98.65%, which was basically comparable to the full-band model. However, the removal of redundant variables could greatly reduce the complexity of the model. The hyperspectral technology combined with the chemometrics model established in this study can achieve the origin identification of Gongju at different geographical scales, providing a theoretical basis and technical reference for the construction of a rapid detection system for Gongju origin and the development of exclusive miniaturized instrumentation and equipment systems.
