Objective: To evaluate the clinical value of extended red blood cell (RBC) antigen matching in transfusion for patients with autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA). Methods: Clinical transfusion procedures involving extended RBC antigen matching for cross-compatibility testing were analyzed in two AIHA cases. Results: Following the implementation of extended RBC antigen matching (four-tier matching), the major cross-match reaction results shifted from strongly positive to weakly positive. The hemoglobin (Hb) levels increased significantly after transfusion, with no observed hemolytic transfusion reactions (HTRs). Conclusion: Extended RBC antigen matching may provide a safe and effective transfusion strategy for AIHA patients.

Chinese Journal of School Health 2026;47(3):347-350
Objective:
To understand the awareness of chikungunya fever knowledge and its related factors among medical college students in Baise City, so as to provide a scientific basis to offer relevant courses and special education.
Methods:
From July to August 2025, 7 286 enrolled medical students were selected by a sampling method from a medical college in Baise City to participate in the questionnaire survey. The questionnaire covered epidemiological characteristics, clinical symptoms, and prevention/control knowledge of chikungunya fever. Statistical analyses including the Chi quare test and multivariate Logistic regression models were performed.
Results:
The overall awareness rate of chikungunya fever knowledge among the medical students was 18.89%. Among the knowledge items, the awareness rate of "the high incidence season" was the highest (84.05%), while that of "the infectious period" was the lowest (17.80%). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that medical students with female (a OR= 1.37 , 95%CI =1.20- 1.57 ), the age for over 25 years old (a OR=1.76, 95%CI =1.05-2.93), whose father had a middle school educational level (a OR=1.18, 95%CI =1.05-1.31), and majored in preventive medicine (a OR=1.54, 95%CI =1.10-1.67) had relatively higher awareness rates of chikungunya fever knowledge (all P <0.05). In contrast, students of Zhuang ethnicity (a OR= 0.87 , 95%CI =0.76-0.98) and majoring in nursing (a OR=0.74, 95%CI =0.61-0.91) or pharmacy (a OR=0.70, 95%CI =0.52-0.95) had relatively lower awareness rates (all P <0.05).
Conclusions
The awareness rate of chikungunya fever related knowledge among medical college students in Baise City is relatively low. Schools should take targeted publicity measures to improve medical students awareness.

OBJECTIVE To formulate the Expert Consensus on the Implementation and Management of Drug Selection for Centralized Volume-Based Procurement in Medical Institutions of Guangxi (hereinafter referred to as the “ Consensus ”), and to provide decision-making support and practical guidance for the drug selection and management of centralized volume-based procurement (hereinafter referred to as “centralized procurement”) drugs in medical institutions at all levels in Guangxi. METHODS A systematic review was conducted on the materials from previous batches of centralized procurement implemented in Guangxi. A comprehensive search was carried out for drug-related works and books, along with a systematic collation of guidelines on drug selection, expert consensus on centralized procurement, and policy documents. Through three rounds of specialized seminars, combined with existing evidence-based data and the practical drug selection experiences of medical institutions at various levels, this Consensus was formulated after thorough discussion and successive rounds of revision. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS The Consensus systematically outlines the three key stages in the implementation of centralized procurement in medical institutions: procurement volume reporting, confirmation of agreed procurement volume, and procurement and usage implementation. It proposes drug selection strategies for centralized procurement bas ed on multiple dimensions, including specifications, dosage forms, packaging materials, fill volume, and manufacturing enterprises. In response to practical challenges encountered in the selection process, corresponding countermeasures are proposed, such as establishing a regularized information reserve mechanism, strengthening information technology support, and implementing categorized selection approaches. The Consensus advocates for medical institutions to construct an integrated “policy, data, and quality” decision-making system to promote full-cycle management of centralized procurement. This Consensus will provide scientific and practical guidance for medical institutions at all levels in Guangxi in the drug selection of centralized procurement, facilitating the smooth implementation and sustainable development of centralized procurement policies at the institutional level.

Clinical and Molecular Hepatology 2026;32(2):884-903
Background/Aims:
Liver transplantation (LT) following total hepatectomy is a life-saving treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The HCC recurrence after LT hinders the effectiveness of the procedure. The objective of this study is to develop a pre-operative risk stratification model based on a liquid biopsy.
Methods:
We conducted a comprehensive multi-omics study of 260 HCC patients from three centers, including clinical data, low-coverage whole-genome sequencing of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) from plasma, as well as whole-exome, single-nucleus RNA, and spatial transcriptomics from matched tumor and non-tumor tissues.
Results:
We identified cfDNA-derived copy number alteration (CNA) signatures associated with post-transplant recurrence. By integrating cfDNA-derived CNA profiles with single-cell transcriptomic data, we traced recurrence-associated cfDNA to a distinct subpopulation of malignant cells within the primary tumor. These cells were embedded in a pro-metastatic microenvironment of specialized endothelial subtypes and cancer-associated fibroblasts. Notably, most recurrence-associated lesions were detectable in cfDNA prior to liver transplantation (LT). Building on these insights, we developed the ZJU Criteria based on CNA fragments and tumor markers, a pre-LT risk prediction tool that integrates conventional clinical factors with cfDNA-derived CNA signatures, and validated it using internal and independent external cohorts.
Conclusion
Our findings suggest that post-transplant recurrence commonly originates from advanced subclones that emerge late during tumor evolution. The ZJU Criteria provides an accurate, non-invasive strategy that significantly improves pre-LT risk stratification and clinical decision-making for patients with HCC.

ObjectiveTo analyze the influencing factors of hepatic fibrosis in patients with Wilson's disease (WD) and to develop and validate a predictive model for hepatic fibrosis in WD that integrates traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndromes and modern biomarkers, thus providing a basis for early identification of high-risk populations and medical intervention. MethodsThe clinical data of 220 WD patients diagnosed in the Department of Encephalopathy, The First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui University of Chinese Medicine between January 2010 and December 2024 were retrospectively collected. Through a random number table, patients were assigned into a training set (154 patients) and a validation set (66 patients) in a 7∶3 ratio. Univariate COX regression, LASSO regression analysis, and multivariate COX regression analysis were performed to identify independent influencing factors for hepatic fibrosis in WD patients, and a clinical prediction model was established based on these factors. The discrimination, calibration, and clinical utility of the model were evaluated based on the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), calibration curves, and decision curve analysis (DCA), respectively. ResultsA total of 220 patients were included. The syndrome of combined phlegm and stasis, triglycerides (TG), laminin (LN), and male gender were identified as independent risk factors for hepatic fibrosis in WD patients, while TCM intervention and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were protective factors. The C-index indicated excellent discriminative ability (training set: 3-year AUC=0.908, 5-year AUC=0.869, 7-year AUC=0.829; validation set: 3-year AUC= 0.898, 5-year AUC=0.780, 7-year AUC=0.743). Calibration curves showed good consistency. DCA demonstrated the clinical net benefit probabilities across different risk thresholds at various time points. ConclusionThe predictive model established in this study has high accuracy and can be conveniently used for the early identification and risk prediction of hepatic fibrosis in patients with WD.

OBJECTIVE To study the quality standard of the ethnic medicine Diplazium lanceum, and to provide reference for its quality control.METHODS The medicinal material of D. lanceum was identified by properties, microscopy, and thin-layer chromatography(TLC), and its moisture, ash, and extract contents were determined. The contents of chlorogenic acid and rutin in 10 batches of D. lanceum were determined by high-performance liquid chromatography . RESULTS The rhizome of D. lanceum is slender and creeping, the leaf is leathery and shriveled, and yellow sporangia are borne on the abaxial surface of the leaf. The transverse section of the leaf shows inclusions, sclerenchyma, phloem cells, etc.; the transverse section of the petiole shows ground tissue, sclerenchyma, endodermis, etc.; the transverse section of the rhizome shows ground tissue, tracheids, vascular bundles, etc.; and the powder shows spiral vessels and brown inclusions. The TLC identification results showed that the chromatogram of the test sample exhibited spots of the same color at the corresponding positions as the chromatogram of the chlorogenic acid reference substance. The content ranges of moisture, total ash, acid-insoluble ash, extract, chlorogenic acid, and rutin in the 10 batches of samples were 10.18%-12.43%, 7.08%-19.12%, 0.95%-10.62%, 14.13%-26.05%, 0.113 1-1.015 9 mg/g, and 0.009 9-0.208 9 mg/g, respectively. CONCLUSIONS In the quality standard of D. lanceum, the moisture content should be ≤12.5%, total ash content should be ≤20.0%, acid-insoluble ash content should be ≤11.0%, extract content should be ≥14.0%, and chlorogenic acid content should be ≥0.11 mg/g. The established method is simple, specific, and reproducible, and can provide a scientific basis for the quality control of D. lanceum.

Objective: To analyze the characteristics and key risk factors of abnormal blood disposal throughout the 2024-2025 blood collection and supply process based on nationwide multi-site monitoring data, develop a comprehensive prevention and control strategy across the entire chain, reduce preventable blood waste, and ensure clinical blood safety. Methods: According to the Guidelines for Haemovigilance (T/CSBT 001-2026), we extracted 74 cases of abnormal blood disposal events reported by the China Blood Transfusion Association′s Blood Safety Monitoring System from January 1 2024, to December 31 2025, and conducted descriptive statistical analysis on the distribution of events, types of deviations, root causes, and classifications of disposal manifestations. Results: A total of 664 adverse events related to blood collection and supply were reported over two years, with 74 cases involving discarded abnormal blood units, accounting for 11.1% of the total. Among these, blood component preparation (40.5%) and blood collection (37.8%) remained traditional high-risk stages. The proportion of blood waste occurring during storage, distribution, and transportation increased from 7.7% in 2024 to 34.3% in 2025. Deviations from standard operating procedures (SOP) by personnel were the primary cause, accounting for 74.3% of cases. Discarded blood units were categorized into four types: compromised closed blood bag systems (40 cases), mainly due to inadequate heat sealing, physical damage, or dropped bags; blood out of the cold chain (12 cases), primarily resulting from blood being left at work sites; imbalanced proportion of preservation solution (10 cases), mostly caused by blood collection volumes exceeding the standard capacity of blood bags; and other causes (12 cases). Conclusion: Human operational errors are the core cause of abnormal blood waste. The collection and preparation stages have long been at high-risk, and the risks in the storage and transportation stages have been increasing year by year. We should focus on standardizing personnel management, improving specialized operation norms such as heat sealing, transportation, and storage, establishing a full-process intelligent cold chain monitoring and multi-node visual verification mechanism, and systematically reducing the occurrence rate of abnormal blood waste through a closed-loop quality intervention system, thereby improving the utilization efficiency of voluntary blood donation resources.

Uveitis is a blinding inflammatory disease that affects multiple structures within the eye, posing significant risks to patients' vision and mental health. Current treatments mainly involve glucocorticoids and immunosuppressants, which are associated with significant side effects, high relapse rates, and substantial costs. Recent research suggests that the gut microbiota may play a role in the development of uveitis through the gut-eye axis, with related metabolites also influencing disease progression. Modulating the gut microbiota or its metabolites could offer new therapeutic avenues for uveitis. This review explores the relationship between gut microbiota and various uveitis-associated diseases, such as systemic sarcoidosis, Vogt-Koyanagi-Harada syndrome, Behcet's disease, multiple sclerosis, and birdshot chorioretinopathy. It also discusses advancements in microbiota-related therapies, including probiotics and prebiotics, antibiotics, immunomodulators, phage therapy, and fecal microbiota transplantation. The aim is to provide a reference for the development of new therapies targeting specific microbial communities and genetic markers associated with uveitis, thereby promoting the realization of precision medicine.
