Objective: To explore the occult clinical features and diagnostic difficulties of transfusion-related anaphylactic shock (TRAS) in patients with severe burns through a retrospective case analysis, and to provide practical references for improving the early identification and treatment efficiency of such atypical allergic reactions. Methods: The clinical data of a patient with severe burns (60%TBSA) who developed severe anaphylactic shock after intraoperative plasma transfusion were retrospectively analyzed. Transfusion reaction laboratory investigations, including blood group re-verification, unexpected antibody screening, and the Coombs test, were performed to rule out hemolytic transfusion reactions and blood group incompatibility. Together with the patient's lack of typical cutaneous allergic signs, ineffective response to conventional vasopressor therapy, and the rapid reversal of the condition following anti-allergic treatment (epinephrine plus glucocorticoids), the diagnosis was established and the recognition pathway was summarized. Results: Immediately after plasma transfusion, the patient developed severe hypotension (50/40 mmHg) accompanied by altered mental status, tachycardia, and shock manifestations. Because of the extensive burn wounds over the whole body, typical allergic signs such as urticaria and skin flushing were not observed. Blood pressure could not be maintained after rapid fluid resuscitation and conventional vasopressor therapy, but recovered rapidly after switching to epinephrine combined with glucocorticoid pulse therapy, and vital signs tended to be stable. Prophylactic anti-allergic drugs were administered before subsequent transfusions, and no similar adverse reactions occurred. Conclusion: Transfusion-related allergic reactions in patients with severe burns are characterized by occult clinical manifestations, with skin signs often masked by burn wounds, which can easily lead to diagnostic delay. Reverse verification through the rapid response to anti-allergic therapy after failure of conventional anti-shock treatment is a key clinical approach for identifying atypical anaphylactic shock. It is recommended to establish an early warning mechanism focusing on hemodynamic monitoring within 15 minutes after transfusion, and develop individualized transfusion protocols, including preoperative allergic history assessment and prophylactic anti-allergic medication, for patients with severe burns, so as to enhance transfusion safety in this high-risk population.

The quality of clinical trials is critical to ensuring the safety and rights of participants, and ensuring the reliability of trial data. It directly affects the scientific validity of research conclusions and the effectiveness of regulatory decisions. This study aimed to establish an efficient quality management system to enhance the overall quality of clinical trials. Our hospital had established a dedicated quality control team, and developed a quality management module which was integrated to the clinical trial management system. Since February 2021, the hospital had fully digitized the electronic management of quality control processes, and achieved closed-loop management throughout the entire clinical trial by using this system. Key measures of the system included formulating tailored quality control plans, optimizing the design of quality control checklists, and refining quality control feedback mechanisms to improve management efficiency. In 2024, the annual quality control workload had reached 807 activities, with a completion rate of 93% and a timeliness rate of 91%. These outcomes demonstrate that the system could effectively improve the management quality and efficiency of pharmaceutical and medical devices clinical trials. The system could provide insights and practical references for the standardized implementation and quality assurance of clinical trials.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the effect of COVID-19 infection on the mobilization and collection of autologous peripheral blood stem cells in patients with multiple myeloma. METHODS: The general baseline data, treatment factors before mobilization collection, collection status, and treatment overview after collection of autologous peripheral blood stem cells at Beijing Chaoyang Hospital affiliated with Capital Medical University from January 1, 2020 to July 15, 2023 were analyzed. RESULTS: 269 patients underwent mobilization and collection of autologous peripheral blood stem cells. Among them, 32 cases with COVID-19 infection history (COVID-19 group) and 237 cases without COVID-19 infection history (non-COVID-19 group). In the COVID-19 group, 17 cases were treated with chemotherapy (etoposide)+G-CSF, and 15 cases were treated with plerixafor +G-CSF. In the non-COVID-19 group, 214 cases were treated with chemotherapy +G-CSF, 17 cases were treated with plerixafor +G-CSF, and 6 cases were treated with chemotherapy + plerixafor +G-CSF. The number of CD34⁺ cells, collection success rate, and excellence rate in the COVID-19 group and the non-COVID-19 group were ［5.52 (0.94-26.87) vs 4.80 (0.53-37.20)］×10⁶/kg (P =0.610), (93.8% vs 85.2%) (P =0.275), (62.5% vs 49.4%) (P =0.190), respectively. Among 113 patients mobilized with etoposide +G-CSF, the number of CD34⁺ cells, success rate, and excellence rate collected from COVID-19 infection (17 cases) and non-COVID-19 infection (96 cases) were ［7.54 (2.66-26.87) vs 7.78 (2.26-37.20)］×10⁶/kg (P =0.847), (100.0% vs 100.0%) (no P value), (82.4% vs 86.5%) (P =0.655), respectively. Among 32 patients mobilized by plerixafor +G-CSF, the number of CD34⁺ cells, success rate and excellence rate of COVID-19 infection (15 cases) and non-COVID-19 infection (17 cases) were ［3.82 (0.94-7.27) vs 4.11 (0.53-9.05)］×10⁶/kg (P =0.821), (86.7% vs 88.2%) (P =0.893), (40.0% vs 35.3%) (P =0.784), respectively. In 32 patients with COVID-19 infection, the number of CD34⁺ cells collected by etoposide +G-CSF (17 cases) and plerixafor +G-CSF (15 cases), as well as the success rate and excellence rate were ［7.54 (2.66-26.87) vs 3.82(0.94-7.27)］×10⁶/kg (P =0.004), (100.0% vs 86.7%) (P =0.120), (82.4% vs 40.0%) (P =0.014), respectively. By 2023.7.31, 232 patients (86.2%, 232/269) had received transplantation, including 24 patients in the COVID-19 group and 208 patients in the non-COVID-19 group. The median number of CD34⁺ cells infused in the two groups was ［3.67 (2.50-13.44) vs 3.11(1.12-19.89)］×10⁶/kg (P =0.058), the median days of neutrophil engraftment ［11(9-13) vs 11(9-17)］ (P =0.674), the median days of platelet engraftment ［11(0-23), 12(0-43)］ (P =0.279), respectively. CONCLUSION The history of COVID-19 infection did not affect the PBSC mobilization, collection and transplantation of patients with myeloma. In patients with COVID-19 infection, the results of chemotherapy mobilization with etoposide seems to be better than that of plerixafor mobilization, but further research is needed to clarify.
