Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Purpose To investigate and summarize the clinicopathological features,immunophenotype,diagnosis and differential diagnosis of anaplastic thyroid carcinoma(ATC).Methods The clinicopathological features and follow-up data of 15 patients with ATC were reviewed and retrospectively ana-lyzed,and the histological features,immunophenotypic,and molecular features were observed.Results There were 8 males and 7 females with a mean age of 63.5 years.The largest tumor diameter was 45.9 mm(range,20-73 mm).Macroscopically,the tumors appeared nodular or lobulated,mostly firm to hard,with a cut surface of gray-white or gray-yellow in color,and were accompanied by hemorrhage,necrosis,and cystic changes.Mi-croscopically,the tumor exhibited diverse structures and cellular morphology mainly composed of epithelioid,spindle,multinu-cleated giant cells,rarely rhabdoid morphology(2 cases)and heterologous osteosarcomtoid differentiation(1 case).Two cases showed squamous cell carcinoma morphology as well.Among them,there were pure ATC in 11 cases while three cases had mixed papillary thyroid carcinoma components and one case had coexisting high-grade differentiated thyroid carcinoma compo-nent.Cervical lymph node metastasis was present in 6 cases.CK(AE1/AE3)expression was observed in 80%of the cases while PAX8 expression was seen in53.3%.Varying degrees of BRAF(VE1)expression were found in 42.9%whereas weak focal TTF-1 expression occurred only in two cases;and all cases did not express TG.Overall,genetic testing was performed in 8 cases(53.3%).The TP53 gene was the most frequently muta-ted gene(5/8,62.5%),followed by the RAS(3/8,37.5%)and BRAF(3/8,37.5%)genes,while the TERT combined with PIK3CA gene was mutated in only one case.Moreover,multiple gene mutations occurred simultaneously in five cases.Of the total fourteen patients who underwent follow-up,the mean and median survival times were 13.9 and 5.0 months,respec-tively.The disease-specific mortality rate reached 78.6%.Conclusion ATC is extremely rare,displaying unique histolog-ical characteristics,often accompanied by various gene muta-tions.It has a poor prognosis;therefore,establishing a defini-tive pathological diagnosis provides valuable evidence for predic-ting patient outcomes and guiding clinical management.

【Objective】 To study the genotypes of ABO ambiguous blood group samples(n=20) and identify their molecular biological characteristics. 【Methods】 The serological phenotype of the samples was analyzed by serological techniques. Seven exons of ABO gene were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and the PCR products were directly sequenced; the genotypes and sequences of ABO subtypes were analyzed. 【Results】 The serological phenotypes of 20 samples presenting ABO ambiguous blood group were as follows: weak A antigen (n=5), weak A antigen combined with anti-A1 antibody (n=5), normal A antigen combined with anti-A1 antibody (n=2), weak B antigen (n=8). The genotypes of them were as follows: Ax02/O01 (n=3), Ael07/O01 (n=2), B313/O01 (n=2), A204/O02 (n=1), A220/O01 (n=1), Ael07/O02 (n=1), Ael02/O01 (n=1), Ael02/O02 (n=1), Ax03/O01 (n=1), Ax03/O02 (n=1), B313/O02 (n=1), B302/O01 (n=1), B302/O02 (n=1), Bw19/O02 (n=1), A102/B313 (n=1) and A101/Bw37 (n=1). 【Conclusion】 ABO genotyping technology can accurately identify the ambiguous blood group of samples, provide definite genetic information of blood group and ensure the safety of clinical transfusion.

We conducted a prospective study to assess the non-inferiority of adjuvant chemotherapy alone versus adjuvant concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) as an alternative strategy for patients with early-stage (FIGO 2009 stage IB-IIA) cervical cancer having risk factors after surgery. The condition was assessed in terms of prognosis, adverse effects, and quality of life. This randomized trial involved nine centers across China. Eligible patients were randomized to receive adjuvant chemotherapy or CCRT after surgery. The primary end-point was progression-free survival (PFS). From December 2012 to December 2014, 337 patients were subjected to randomization. Final analysis included 329 patients, including 165 in the adjuvant chemotherapy group and 164 in the adjuvant CCRT group. The median follow-up was 72.1 months. The three-year PFS rates were both 91.9%, and the five-year OS was 90.6% versus 90.0% in adjuvant chemotherapy and CCRT groups, respectively. No significant differences were observed in the PFS or OS between groups. The adjusted HR for PFS was 0.854 (95% confidence interval 0.415-1.757; P = 0.667) favoring adjuvant chemotherapy, excluding the predefined non-inferiority boundary of 1.9. The chemotherapy group showed a tendency toward good quality of life. In comparison with post-operative adjuvant CCRT, adjuvant chemotherapy treatment showed non-inferior efficacy in patients with early-stage cervical cancer having pathological risk factors. Adjuvant chemotherapy alone is a favorable alternative post-operative treatment.

We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of single-course initial regimens in patients with low-risk gestational trophoblastic neoplasia (GTN). In this trial (NCT01823315), 276 patients were analyzed. Patients were allocated to three initiated regimens: single-course methotrexate (MTX), single-course MTX + dactinomycin (ACTD), and multi-course MTX (control arm). The primary endpoint was the complete remission (CR) rate by initial drug(s). The primary CR rate was 64.4% with multi-course MTX in the control arm. For the single-course MTX arm, the CR rate was 35.8% by one course; it increased to 59.3% after subsequent multi-course MTX, with non-inferiority to the control (difference -5.1%,95% confidence interval (CI) -19.4% to 9.2%, P = 0.014). After further treatment with multi-course ACTD, the CR rate (93.3%) was similar to that of the control (95.2%, P = 0.577). For the single-course MTX + ACTD arm, the CR rate was 46.7% by one course, which increased to 89.1% after subsequent multi-course, with non-inferiority (difference 24.7%, 95% CI 12.8%-36.6%, P < 0.001) to the control. It was similar to the CR rate by MTX and further ACTD in the control arm (89.1% vs. 95.2%, P =0.135). Four patients experienced recurrence, with no death, during the 2-year follow-up. We demonstrated that chemotherapy initiation with single-course MTX may be an alternative regimen for patients with low-risk GTN.

Although the combination of surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy is the main methods of cancer treatment, it still fails to solve certain tumors, especially metastatic tumors. With the in-depth study of tumorigenesis and development mechanism, and the exploration and clinical application of tumor immunotherapy, the survival period of patients with malignant tumors has been significantly prolonged. Tumor immunotherapy has become an effective anti-tumor method by activating the body′s own immune system to achieve tumor suppression. The combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy has a significant effect and has become a feasible solution for cancer treatment. The rationally designed nanomedicines can effectively combine chemical drugs and immunological preparations, and have become an effective delivery carrier basis and treatment means for clinically targeting tumor tissues, synergistic immune mechanisms to kill tumor cells, and treating tumors. In this paper, the types of multifunctional nanomedicines used in chemotherapy and various immunotherapies in recent years and their advantages in cancer therapy were reviewed.

Objective: To investigate the histomorpholgic spectrum, immunophenotypic, and molecular genetic features of Sertoli cell tumor, not otherwise specified (SCT, NOS) of the testis. Methods: Seven cases of SCT, NOS of the testis were analyzed(4 from Peking University Third Hospital and 3 from Zhejiang Provincial People′s Hospital) between 2008 and 2017. The histopathologic features were examined based on HE staining, and EnVision method was used for immunohistochemistry staining of calretinin, inhibin, β-catenin, cyclinD1, CD10, CKpan, neuroendocrine markers, WT1, Melan A, vimentin, SALL4, GATA3, PAX8, and S-100 protein. Mutational analysis of exon 3 of the CTNNB1 gene by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-amplified sequences and direct sequencing was performed. Results: Patients ages ranged from 22 to 65 years (mean 43 years). The clinical manifestation in all was a slowly enlarging, painless testicular mass.The maximum diameter of the tumor ranged from 1.5 cm to 3.0 cm (mean 2.1 cm). Sectioning usually disclosed a tan-gray to white mass with vague lobular cut-surface. Microscopically, the tumors were well circumscribed and non-encapsulated; the tumor cells were rearranged in multiple growth patterns from diffuse solid sheets to trabeculae and cords, ribbon and solid or hollow tubules setting in variable amount of acellular fibrous stroma. Two cases showed acellular collagenous stroma constituted >50% of the tumor confirming to the diagnosis of sclerosing SCT. One case demonstrated a prominent myxoid stromal change. The tumor cells typically had moderate amounts of pale to lightly eosinophilic cytoplasm, 2 tumors had variable cells with abundant lipid-rich cytoplasm, and 1 other tumor showed scattered aggregates of multinucleated tumor cells. The tumor cells were bland-appearing without any evidence of atypia, mitoses were noted in 2 tumors (both were 1/50 HPF), but necrosis was absent. Immunohistochemical staining results as follows: vimentin (diffuse, 7/7), CD10 (diffuse membrane, 7/7); diffuse β-catenin nuclear and cytoplasm staining in 5 of 7 cases, and all the 5 cases showed diffuse cyclin D1 nuclear staining, β-catenin membrane staining in 2 of 7 cases, CKpan (5/7, focal or diffuse), calretinin (focal, 5/6), inhibin (focal, 3/7), synaptophysin (focal, 2/6), CD56 (focal or diffuse, 4/5), WT1 (diffuse nuclear, 4/5), and S-100 protein (diffuse, 3/7), and chromogranin A, Melan A, PAX8, GATA3 and SALL4 all were negative. Molecular genetic studies of PCR and direct sequencing showed CTNNB1 mutations in 4 of 7 (4/7) cases, 4 of the four mutation-carrying cases showed diffuse β-catenin nuclear and cytoplasm immunoreactivity and diffuse cyclin D1 nuclear immunoreactivity in the tumor cells. Conclusions SCT, NOS of the testis typically shows significant heterogeneities in both morphology and immunohistochemistry, thus causing differential diagnostic confusions. Molecular analyses showed mutations of exon 3 of CTNNB1 in more than half of these tumors, and nuclear accumulation of β-catenin and over expression of cyclin D1 can be useful for the differential diagnosis of SCT, NOS.

Objective To investigate the status of professional benefit and turnover intention among contract nurses in operating room from ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals, and to analyze the relationship between them.Methods A total of 258 contract nurses in operating room of 6 Class Ⅲ Grade A hospitals in Shenyang were investigated by nurses' professional benefit scale and turnover intention scale during September 2016 to October 2017, to investigate the status of professional benefit and turnover intention and analyze the relationship between them.Results The total score of professional benefit and turnover intention of contract operating room nurses in the third-class hospital was (47.89±7.59) and (12.12±3.06) respectively. The Pearson correlation analysis showed that there was a negative correlation between nurses' professional benefit and turnover intention in contract nurses of operating room in ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals (r=-0.537,P<0.01). Hierarchical regression analysis showed that, after controlling demographic factors, professional benefit could independently explain 19.30％ of the variation in turnover intention of contractual operating room nurses in Class Ⅲ Grade A hospitals. Conclusions Professional benefit of contract nurses in operating room of ClassⅢ Grade A hospitals is an important influencing factor of turnover intention. It is necessary to stabilize the working mentality by improving the sense of professional benefit and to promote the structural stability and sustainable development of the operating room nursing staff.

Cox regression model is one of the most widely used methods in the survival analysis.One assumption of this model is that there is no tie in the failure times,that is,individual has different failure times.In practical applications,the existence of ties in time data is very common.In this paper,four common methods of dealing with ties in Cox model,including Exact method,discrete model method,Efron method and Breslow method,were compared with simulation.The results showed that Exact method and discrete model were the best,but they took the longest time.Efron method and Breslow method were faster but there was a greater deviation in parameter estimation.Moreover,the sample amount and ties degree also affect the results.In general,when there are a few ties,the difference between four methods was small;and in the case of large datasets or a large number of ties,the bias of three approximation methods increased except Exact method.However,there was no significant change on computational time.While the computational time of the Exact method increased rapidly.Therefore,if the estimation precision is not as important as the estimation time,Efron method and Breslow method will be good choices.Efron method is more preferably as it is more precise.And Breslow method tends to underestimate the true β.If there is no limit in time,Exact method and discrete model can be chosen to achieve more accurate results.

This paper was aimed to understand the clinical features of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) through the analysis of relevant information among fracture patients treated by the Cervus and Cucumis Polypeptide Injection (CCPI).The study was conducted among fracture patients treated by CCPI in the hospital information systems (HIS) among 26 national triple-A hospitals from 2003 to 2014.The general information,TCM syndrome and solar term of morbidity were analyzed.The results showed that the number of patients from 45-64 years old were the most,accounting for 39.84％.Among them,the number of male patients from 18-44 years old was the most,accounting for 43.38％;the number of female patients from 45-64 year old was the most,accounting for 44.33％.The main TCM syndrome of admission and discharge was qi stagnation and blood stasis,which accounted for 60.53％ and 53.08％,respectively.Beginning of Summer (7th solar term) and Rain Water (2nd solar term) were solar terms with the most patients,which accounted for 5.26％ and 5.24％,respectively.It was concluded that the majority of fractures patients treated with CCPI were the elderly.The syndrome of qi stagnation and blood stasis was the most.The hospital admission of most patients was at the Beginning of Summer and Rain Water.It provided theoretical basis to pay attention on TCM syndrome differentiation in the treatment of clinical fractures.The treatment should be adapted to the characteristics of the disease itself,the change of solar terms,and dialectical medication.
