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 investigate the application of patient-based real-time quality control (PBRTQC) using exponentially weighted moving average (EWMA) method in internal quality control (IQC) procedures of thyroid function tests.Methods:The serum thyroid function test results of outpatients and inpatients in the Second Hospital of Shandong University from December 1, 2022 to April 30, 2023 were collected. Based on the PBRTQC professional intelligent software system, normality correction, parameter setting, program preparation and real-time operation of test data were carried out. The results of all patients who underwent thyroid function testing between May 1, 2023 and August 31, 2023 were used as the validation dataset. The estimated EWMA value of thyroid function test results and the cumulative coefficient of variation ( CV) over 4 months were calculated. The cumulative CV was compared with the criteria of precision quality standard (1/3TEa) and the CV of IQC. Westgard 2-2s and 1-3s rules were used for alarm setting. The early warning information of the EWMA quality control program were recorded and the potential causes of performance changes were analyzed. DxLab Mind software was used to conduct normal distribution statistics for all data, and the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was performed on the test results. Results:The items related to serum thyroid function of the patients were all positively skewed. After data correction by Box-Cox method, the PBRTQC data of free triiodothyronine (FT3) and free thyroxine (FT4) were normally distributed, and their cumulative precisions ( CV) of EWMA within 4 months were 6.26% and 2.86%, respectively, both of which were lower than the precision quality target of 8.33%. However, the data of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), thyroid peroxidase antibodies (TPOAb) and thyroglobulin antibody (TgAb) were still positive skewed after modification. The EWMA cumulative CV of TSH, TPOAb and TgAb were 13.16%, 15.31% and 16.77%, which were higher than the precision quality targets of 8.33%, 10% and 10%, respectively. The EWMA QC program can detect different out-of-control alarms, including FT4 false alarms due to sample source concentration and TSH result bias caused by changes in reagent performance. In addition, the EWMA QC program can also detect differences in FT3 results between different DXI800 fully automated chemiluminescence instrument instruments. Conclusions:The EWMA program based on PBRTQC professional intelligent software tools can monitor the patient data of the detection system in real time and continuously, dynamically identify and monitor the errors generated during the analysis process and give early warning. It can be used as a useful supplement for the daily IQC of thyroid function items, especially FT3 and FT4, and has good clinical application value.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the changes in microRNA-130a (miR-130a) and its correlation with cardiotoxicity during epirubicin/cyclophosphamide followed by docetaxel plus trastuzumab (EC-D+T) adjuvant chemotherapy in human epidermal growth factor receptor-2-positive (HER2+) breast cancer patients. Methods: A total of 72 HER2+ breast cancer patients who underwent resection and were scheduled to receive EC-D+T adjuvant therapy were consecutively enrolled. The expression of miR-130a and cardiotoxicity (defined as any of the following situations: 1) absolute decline of left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 10% and LVEF < 53%; 2) heart failure; 3) acute coronary artery syndromes; and 4) fatal arrhythmia) were assessed every 3 months throughout the 15-month EC-D+T treatment. Results: The accumulating cardiotoxicity rate was 12 (16.7%), of which the incidence of heart failure, acute coronary syndrome, life-threatening arrhythmias, ΔLVEF ≥ 10%, and LVEF < 53% was 0 (0.0%), 1 (1.4%), 0 (0.0%), and 12 (16.7%), respectively. Baseline miR-130a expression was negatively correlated with LVEF (%) and positively correlated with cardiac troponin I. The expression of miR-130a gradually increased in both cardiotoxicity and noncardiotoxicity patients during EC-D+T treatment, while the increment of miR-130a was more obvious in cardiotoxicity patients compared with non-cardiotoxicity patients. Further logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic curve analysis indicated that miR-130a was an independent predictive factor for increased cardiotoxicity risk. Conclusion MiR-130a increases constantly and predicts high cardiotoxicity risk during ECD+T adjuvant chemotherapy in HER2+ breast cancer patients.

Objective To analyze and summarize the MR findings of intraspinal primary melanocytie neoplasms.Methods Five cases of intraspinal primary melanocytic neoplasms were retrospectively analyzed with emphasis on the location,growth pattern and MR signal intensity features of the tumors.Results A total of six tumors were found in five cases (one case had two tumors).The tumors were located in the cercival spine (2),thoracic spine (2),thoracolumbar junction (2) respectively.One tumor was located in the intramedullary space and 5 tumors in the extrumedullary-intradural space.Growth of the tumors were limited in the intradural space without evidence of extradural extension.The intramedullary tumor exhibited hyperintensity on both T2WI and T1 WI.The intradural tumors showed hyperintensity on T1WI and hypointensity or isointensity on T2WI of various degree.Three of these tumors were predominantly hyperintense on T1 WI and homogeneously hypointense on T2WI.Conclusion The intraspinal primary melanocytic neoplasms could be diagnosed pre-operatively due to their unique signal intensity features on imaging.

OBJECTIVESTo investigate the findings of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and histopathology in early postoperative normal brain, and to define the correlation between MR images and histopathology.

METHODSThirty-six New Zealand rabbits weighing 2.0 to 3.0 kg were divided into 10 groups according to different postoperative days: 1 to 10 days. A partial resection of the parietooccipital region was performed under usual aseptic conditions after the animals were anesthetized intravenously with 3% pentobarbital (30 mg/kg). MR imaging procedures consisted of pre- and postcontrast scanning and were carried out on postoperative days 1 to 10. Brain tissue samples were prepared for examination immediately after MR scanning. Histopathological examination was done under light both and electron microscopes. The findings of MR imaging were compared with histopathologic findings.

RESULTSSurgical margin contrast enhancement on MR images could be seen 24 hours after surgery. The degree of contrast enhancement increased gradually up to 5 days postoperation, and no remarkable changes were present from days 5 to 10. Disruption of the blood brain barrier (BBB) was the main cause of contrast enhancement during the first 3 postoperative days. After that period, the mechanism responsible for contrast enhancement was the formation of neovascularity and a broken BBB. An increase in the amount of neovascularity played a predominant role in contrast enhancement in normal postoperative brain tissue.

CONCLUSIONSThe features of enhanced MR images present at the surgical margin followed a typical time course during the early postoperative period. The role of neovascularity and BBB disruption in the formation of contrast enhancement at the surgical margin varies with time. Knowledge of the features of contrast enhancement in postoperative MR images of normal brain can help in differentiating benign changes from residual malignant glioma.
