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.

【Objective】 To analyze ABO system hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) and its influencing factors in Obstetrics Department of our hospital. 【Methods】 The blood samples of 1 040 neonates and their mothers in the obstetric department of our hospital were retrospectively analyzed from September 2022 to January 2023, including ABO and RhD blood group of the neonates and mothers, as well as 3 tests of HDFN, Hb, total bilirubin (TBIL) and indirect bilirubin(IBIL) of the neonates. Relevant clinical data of the neonates and mothers were collected, including maternal and neonatal age, neonatal sex, maternal pregnancy history, gestational age and delivery mode, and their influences on ABO-HDFN were analyzed. 【Results】 Among 1 040 HDFN samples, 298 were ABO incompatibility, among which 113 were HDFN positive, with a positive rate of 37.9% (113/298); the positive rate of HDFN in neonates born to mothers with type O was significantly higher than that in neonates born to mothers with type A and B (71.4% vs 8.2%, P<0.05); the positive rate of HDFN in neonates with antigen-A incompatibility was significantly higher than that in neonates with antigen-B incompatibility (48.7%vs 26.7%, P<0.05), which was the highest in neonates with O-A incompatibility [83.6% (61/73)], followed by O-B incompatibility [58.2% (39/67)]. There was no significant difference in Hb and bilirubin among the other groups except for the difference of Hb between the O-A incompatibility HDFN positive group and the HDFN negative group [(145.0±16.0) vs(153.4±13.2), P<0.05)]. The levels of Hb, TBIL and IBIL in the "direct antiglobulin test+ indirect antiglobulin test+release test+" group were significantly different from those in the HDFN negative group[(144.9±21.6) vs (153.3±13.2), P <0.05; (36.9±11.8) vs (29.6±6.1), P<0.05; (30.6±12.7) vs (23.0±6.9), P<0.05, respectively]. Logistic regression analysis showed that maternal delivery frequency, mother-neonate incompatible antigen and maternal blood type were independent risk factors for HDFN. 【Conclusion】 ABO-HDFN occurred mainly in neonates born to O-type mothers, and the positive rate was the highest in neonates with O-A incompatibility. The severity of HDFN had little relationship with the mother-neonate blood type, but had relationship with the result of 3 tests of HDFN. Maternal delivery frequency, mother-neonate incompatible antigen and maternal blood type were independent risk factors for HDFN.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the molecular basis for an A subtype of the ABO blood group. METHODS: The forward and reverse typing of the ABO blood group were identified by gel card and test tube methods. The ABO gene of the patient was detected by PCR-sequence specific primer (PCR-SSP). Exons 1 to 7 of the ABO gene was amplified by PCR and sequenced. The ABO gene was also subjected to subclone sequencing for haplotype analysis. RESULTS: The patient's red cells showed weak agglutination with anti-A but non-agglutination with anti-B. The patient's serum showed 1+ agglutination with A cells and 4+ agglutination with B cells. Based on above serological characteristics, the patient was defined as Aw subtype of the ABO blood group. Sequencing analysis showed that the patient was heterozygous for c.106G>T, c.188G>A, c.189C>T, c.220C>T, c.297A>G, c.467C>T, c.543G>C, c.646T>A, c.681G>A, c.771C>T, c.829G>A, in addition with a c.261G deletion. Combined with the result of subclone sequencing, the ABO genotype of the patient was determined as ABO*AW.33. new/O.01.02, which harbored c.467C>T and c.543G>C variants compared with ABO*A1.01 and c.543G>C variant compared with ABO*A1.02. The novel allele has been submitted to GenBank with an accession number of MK302122. CONCLUSION A novel allele of Aw33 subtype has been identified with its GTA transferase gene harboring c.467C>T and c.543G>C variants compared with A1.01.

Objective:To quantitate the association between birth weight and phenotypes of physical indicators in adulthood, i.e. BMI and waist circumference (WC) and to what degree genetic or environmental factors affect birth weight-obesity association.Methods:A total of 6 623 gender matched twin pairs aged 25 to 79 years were recruited through the Chinese National Twin Registry. The twins reported their own birth weight, current height and weight, and WC using a self-administered questionnaire. BMI was calculated according to the self-reports of body height and weight. Within twin-pair design was used to quantitate the association between birth weight and phenotypes related to obesity while bivariate structural equation models were used to decompose the phenotype correlation.Results:After adjusted for multiple factors, twin-pair analyses within monozygotic (MZ) showed that, on average, a 1.0 kg increase in birth weight corresponded to an increase of 0.33 kg/m 2 in BMI and 0.95 cm in WC in adulthood ( P<0.001). Bivariate structural equation models showed significant positive unique environmental correlation between birth weight and the two obesity-related phenotypes. Conclusion:The study supported the role of twin-specific supply line factors on relationship between birth weight and physical indicators in adulthood.

Objective: To search new prognosis-related genes in gastric cancer by analyzing the high-throughput sequencing data of gastric cancer in TCGA database, and then provide data support for future studies. Methods: The RNA-seq expression matrix data and patient-related clinical data from 375 gastric cancer tissues and 45 adjacent noncancerous tissues were downloaded from the TCGA database. The data were collated and standardized based on the R language. The difference of gene expression was analyzed by the edgeR and DEseq software packages. The survival analysis of obtained differential genes was performed by the univariate and multivariate COX regressions combined with clinical data of patients, and then the genes with clinical significance were screened out. Results: A total of 364 differential genes were obtained by the edgeR and DEseq analysis. Subsequently, the functional enrichment analysis found that these genes were mainly involved in protein digestion and absorption, cytochrome P450 system of drug and exogenous substance metabolism, chemical carcinogenesis, gastric acid secretion and so on. The univariate COX regression analysis showed that FAP, FAT3, PDK4 and ZNF365 genes had significant influences on the prognosis of gastric cancer patients. The multivariate COX stepwise regression analysis showed that the risk model constructed by FAP and PDK4 could predict the prognosis of gastric cancer patients. Conclusion: FAP, FAT3, PDK4 and ZNF365 genes may be the prognostic markers of gastric cancer, which may provide data supports for future clinical and basic studies.

Objective: To explore the association between DNA methylation and body mass index (BMI) using Mendelian randomization analysis. Methods: A total of 469 participants were selected from the Chinese National Twin Registry in 2013, who were living in Shandong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Sichuan provinces, and at least 18 years of age. A questionnaire survey and physical examination were conducted to collect demographic, clinical, and behavioral information. Peripheral blood cells were collected to detect genotype and methylation status. Association analyses between DNA methylation and BMI and between CpGs and cis-SNP were conducted. With rs748212 as the instrumental variable, the association between cg15053022 and BMI was explored using the Mendelian randomization method. Results: A total of 469 participants were selected. The mean age of participants was (44.8±13.2) years and the BMI was (25.0±3.8) kg/m². Nine BMI-related DNA methylation sites were found and DNA methylation site cg15053022 in the ATP4A gene was negatively associated with cis-SNP rs748212 (β=-0.020); the mean methylation level of AA, AC, and CC were 0.212±0.025, 0.242±0.024, and 0.264±0.028, respectively. rs748212 was associated with BMI (β=0.04, P=0.007) and closely related to cg15053022 (F=237.66, P=0.143). Mendelian randomization analysis showed lower methylation levels at cg15053022 were associated with higher BMI (β=-1.97, P<0.001). Conclusion This study supported the impact of cg15053022 methylation in the ATP4A gene on BMI using Mendelian randomization analysis and provided the basis for using Mendelian randomization analysis in methylation studies.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of low-dose rituximab therapy and sequential maintenance for patients with refractory idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. Methods Thirty-three patients with refractory idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura received intravenous rituximab at the dose of 100 mg once a week for 4 consecutive weeks. Complete blood cell count and serum concentrations of immunoglobulin (IgG,IgM and IgA) were monitored regularly. The numbers of CD3+ and CD19+ CD20+ lymphocyte cells were assayed by flow cytometry before and after therapy. Twenty-five patients with responses(complete response and response) were divided into maintained group (12 patients) and control group (13 patients) by random digits table method. The patients in maintained group were treated with rituximab 100 mg every 6 months. The efficacy of maintenance therapy was evaluated through long-term follow-up. Results The complete response(CR) rate, response (R) rate and no response(NR) rate were 48.48%(16/33), 27.27%(9/33) and 24.24% (8/33), respectively. As a result, total effective rate was 75.76% (25/33). There were no significant changes of peripheral blood white blood cell count,hemoglobin,serum immunoglobulin and CD3+lymphocyte counts before and after treatment (P>0.05). However, CD19+ CD20+ cells were almost depleted in patients treated with rituximab: (3.71±2.64)×106/L vs. (279.33±92.78)×106/L, P<0.01. Five patients suffered from allergic response, and 1 patient developed pneumonia and respiratory failure. The relapse rates of maintained group and control group were 1/12 and 4/13, respectively. Conclusions Treatment with low-dose rituximab may be an effective and safe approach in patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. Relapse rates can be decreased through maintenance therapy with refractory low-dose rituximab. However, the optimal therapeutic schedule need further investigation.
