Intraoperative cell salvage (IOCS) has been widely applied as an important blood conservation measure in surgical operations. However, there is currently a lack of clinical practice guidelines for the implementation of IOCS in patients with malignant tumors. This report aims to provide clinicians with recommendations on the use of IOCS in patients with malignant tumors based on the review and assessment of the existed evidence. Data were derived from databases such as PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library and Wanfang. The guideline development team formulated recommendations based on the quality of evidence, balance of benefits and harms, patient preferences, and health economic assessments. This study constructed seven major clinical questions. The main conclusions of this guideline are as follows: 1) Compared with no perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion (NPABT), perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion (PABT) leads to a more unfavorable prognosis in cancer patients (Recommended); 2) Compared with the transfusion of allogeneic blood or no transfusion, IOCS does not lead to a more unfavorable prognosis in cancer patients (Recommended); 3) The implementation of IOCS in cancer patients is economically feasible (Recommended); 4) Leukocyte depletion filters (LDF) should be used when implementing IOCS in cancer patients (Strongly Recommended); 5) Irradiation treatment of autologous blood to be reinfused can be used when implementing IOCS in cancer patients (Recommended); 6) A careful assessment of the condition of cancer patients (meeting indications and excluding contraindications) should be conducted before implementing IOCS (Strongly Recommended); 7) Informed consent from cancer patients should be obtained when implementing IOCS, with a thorough pre-assessment of the patient's condition and the likelihood of blood loss, adherence to standardized internally audited management procedures, meeting corresponding conditions, and obtaining corresponding qualifications (Recommended). In brief, current evidence indicates that IOCS can be implemented for some malignant tumor patients who need allogeneic blood transfusion after physician full evaluation, and LDF or irradiation should be used during the implementation process.

Objective To investigate whether the gastric juice volume(GV)of obese women who took carbohydrate 2 hours before operation was equal to or less than that of those who are not routine drinking.Methods Obese patients undergoing elective laparoscopic gynecological surgery under general anesthesia with BMI of 28-32 kg/m2 and ASA grade of Ⅰ-Ⅱ,aged 18-65 years old were selected.The patients were divid-ed into the carbohydrate group(CHO group)and the fasting group(Control group)by random number table method,with 51 cases in each group.The Control group was fasted from 11 pm before surgery,while the CHO group was given 300 mL of carbohydrate orally 2 hours before anesthesia.The main outcome measure was compared with a non-inferiority limit(△)of 17 mL and the mean difference in gastric juice volume between the two groups in the right lateral decubitus position(RLDP)examined by gastric ultrasound.The secondary outcome measures included CSA in right lateral position under gastric ultrasound,Perlas classification,GV/kg,gastric juice pH value,patient satisfaction and gastric emptying time.Results The mean difference of gas-tric juice volume was 7.18 mL(95％CI:-0.06 to 14.43),and the upper limit of 95％CI was lower than the preset non-inferiority limit(△=17.05 mL).There was no statistically significant difference in the mean(standard deviation)gastric juice volume between the control group and the CHO group[40(26,66)mL vs.58(34,65)mL;P=0.43].The gastric volume GV/kg was similar in the two groups(P=0.66),and there was no significant difference in the number distribution of Perlas grades between the two groups(P＞0.05).There was significant difference in patient satisfaction between the two groups(P＜0.05).Conclusion Ac-cording to the evaluation of gastric ultrasound,compared with fasting at midnight,300ml carbohydrate intake at 2 hours before surgery is not inferior to fasting at midnight in terms of gastric fluid volume in obese women as assessed by gastric ultrasound.

Objective:To assess the safety and feasibility of Bi's intestinal loop binding treatment of esophageal jejunal anastomotic leak after total gastrectomy.Methods:Bi's Intestinal loop binding are suitable for patients who underwent radical total gastrectomy+Roux-en-Y anastomosis and were confirmed by upper gastrointestinal angiography to have esophageal jejunal anastomotic leakage and whose conservative or endoscopic treatment was ineffective. The operation procedure is as follows: take the original central incision of the upper abdomen, remove the abscess around the anastomoses after ventral incision, and place drainage tube inside the abscess, which is convenient to rinse and drain after operation. A double 1-0 VICRYL is applied to the loop of gastrointestinal surrogate 10-15 cm proximal to the jejuno-jejunal anastomosis. The knot tension is tight to prevent regurgitation of digestive juices, but too much force should be avoided to cut the intestinal tract. Nutritional jejunostomy fistula was performed at 10?15 cm distal to the jejuno-jejunal anastomosis and gastric tube was retained during the operation. The preoperative and postoperative data from 12 patients with jejunal esophageal anastomotic leak after total radical gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y anastomosis were retrospectively analyzed from October 2016 to January 2023 in gastrointestinal surgery and pancreas surgery at Shanxi People's Hospital, and observed the curative effect.Results:12 patients were managed with Bi's Intestinal loop binding, operative time (60.0±20.8) minutes, median bleeding (50±10.8) ml, median hospital stay 20(12~28) days, and median reviewing upper and mid Gastrointestinal Contrast time postoperatively 61(52~74) days. The results showed that the anastomoses healed well, all the small intestine showed good imaging, the binding wire fell off by itself, and two patients had incision infection.Conclusions:It is safe and feasible for patients with esophageal jejunostomy fistulae after total gastrectomy to use the method of Bi's Intestinal loop binding.

The research literature on the mechanism of Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix and its main components in the treatment of osteoporosis was reviewed. It was found that Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix could promote the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, enhance the activity of osteoblasts, inhibit the activity of osteoclasts, regulate estrogen levels, and achieve the effects of preventing and treating osteoporosis. It mainly regulates Wnt/β-catenin, Notch, PI3K/Akt and other signaling pathways. The mechanism of Achyranthis Bidentatae Radix in the treatment of OP shows the characteristics of multi-component, multi-target and multi-pathway.

Objective:To investigate the protective effect of quercetin against LasB-induced apoptosis, inflammation, and oxidative stress in THP-1 macrophages, providing valuable insights into the use of quercetin as a virulence inhibitor for Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection treatment. Methods:This was an experimental study. The experimental strain was the standard strain. The LasB protein was obtained utilizing protein recombination technology, while the enzyme activity of LasB was assessed through both the Elastin Congo red assay and fluorescently labelled elastin assay. The LasB-induced THP-1 macrophage infection model was established, and quercetin was utilized for intervention. Cell viability was evaluated via CCK-8 assay, while cell morphology was observed under an inverted microscope. Apoptosis detection involved employing both TUNEL and Annexin V/PI staining. The mRNA expression and protein levels of inflammatory cytokines and COX-2 were determined by RT-qPCR and ELISA respectively. Intracellular ROS levels were quantified using the DCFH-DA fluorescent probe. One-way ANOVA was used for statistical analysis, and Tukey test was used for multiple comparisons. Results:The pLasB with a molecular weight of 33 000 and acceptable enzymatic activity (purity>90%), was successfully obtained. THP-1 macrophages treated with pLasB at a concentration of 100 μg/ml presented significantly decreased viability and integrity rate when compared with the normal control group. Additionally, pLasB promoted apoptosis, up-regulated the levels of inflammatory cytokines IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10, IL-12, and TNF-α, increased intracellular ROS fluorescence intensity, and elevated COX-2 mRNA expression level. Furthermore, the viability of THP-1 macrophages was significantly enhanced under quercetin intervention at concentrations of 2.5 μmol/L, 5 μmol/L and 10 μmol/L. The apoptosis rate exhibited a significant reduction from 18.32%±0.17% to 13.17%±0.20%, 11.43%±0.06% and 7.74%±0.04%, respectively ( F=1 679, P<0.05). There was a notable down-regulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-6, IL-12 and TNF-α while the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 showed a significant up-regulation. Both intracellular ROS fluorescence intensity ( F=86.92, P<0.05) and COX-2 level ( F=24.62, P<0.05) demonstrated a substantial decrease. Conclusion:Quercetin demonstrates significant efficacy in inhibiting LasB-induced apoptosis, inflammation, and oxidative stress in THP-1 macrophages, which highlights immense potential as a potent virulence inhibitor of Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Objective:To assess the value of optical genome mapping (OGM) for the detection of chromosomal structural abnormalities including ring chromosomes, balanced translocations, and insertional translocations.Methods:Clinical data of four patients who underwent pre-implantation genetic testing concurrently with OGM and chromosomal microarray analysis at the Center of Reproductive Medicine of the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January to October 2022 due to chromosomal structural abnormalities were selected as the study subjects. Some of the results were verified by multi-color fluorescence in situ hybridization. Results:The OGM has successfully detected a balanced translocation and fine mapped the breakpoints in a patient. Among two patients with insertional translocations, OGM has provided more refined breakpoint locations than karyotyping analysis in a patient who had chromosome 3 inserted into chromosome 6 and determined the direction of the inserted fragment. However, OGM has failed to detect the chromosomal abnormalit in a patient with chromosome 8 inserted into the Y chromosome. It has also failed to detect circular signals in a patient with ring chromosome mosaicism.Conclusion:OGM has successfully detected chromosomal structural variations in the four patients and provided assistance for their diagnosis.

Objective:To compare the results of invasive prenatal diagnosis and preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) and explore the underlying mechanism.Methods:Clinical data of pregnant women undergoing PGT and invasive prenatal diagnosis at the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2019 to December 2022 were collected. The results of PGT and invasive prenatal diagnosis were compared, and the outcomes of pregnancies were followed up. This study has been approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University (No. 2022SLYEC-491).Results:A total of 172 couples were included in this study, and 26 non-targeted variants were discovered upon prenatal diagnosis, including 10 cases (38.5%) by chromosomal karyotyping, 15 (57.7%) by chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA), and 1 (3.8%) by whole exome sequencing. The 10 karyotypic anomalies had included 6 chromosomal polymorphisms, 2 chromosomal mosaicisms, 1 paternally derived translocation, and 1 missed maternal chromosomal inversion. CMA has identified 15 copy number variations (CNVs), which included 11 microdeletions and microduplications, 3 loss of heterozygosity, and 1 low-level mosaicism of paternal uniparental disomy. One CNV was classified as pathogenic, and another one was likely pathogenic, whilst the remaining 13 were classified as variants of uncertain significance. Therefore, 8.7% of CNVs was detected by invasive prenatal diagnosis after PGT. 92.3% (24/26) of the non-targeted variants have been due to technological limitations of next-generation sequencing (NGS).Conclusion:Invasive prenatal diagnosis after PGT can detect non-targeted variants, which may further reduce the incidence of birth defects.
