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.

Professor HAN Wei 's clinical experience of acupuncture and moxibustion with Tongyang Xingshen (promoting yang and regaining consciousness) for adolescent depressive disorder is introduced. It is believed that the internal causes of adolescent depressive disorder are mostly emotional and physical factors, while the external causes are mainly social factors, and yang-qi stagnation and emotional disorder are the key pathogenesis. The key of acupuncture and moxibustion with Tongyang Xingshen is warming and regulating the governor vessel. The governor vessel acupoints at head, neck and back are selected. At head, Baihui (GV 20) and Yintang (GV 24⁺) are selected; at neck, Fengfu (GV 16) and Dazhui (GV 14) are selected; at back, Taodao (GV 13), Shenzhu (GV 12), Shendao (GV 11), Zhiyang (GV 9) and Jinsuo (GV 8) are selected. The combination of disease differentiation and syndrome differentiation should be highly valued, and the moxibustion with Tongyang and acupuncture with Xingshen should be used simultaneously, and the strong stimulation is suggested.

Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of in-situ full size split liver transplantation(fSLT) for adult recipients using the living donor liver transplantation(LDLT) technique and to compare the characteristics of the left hemiliver graft (LHG) and the right hemiliver graft(RHG)transplantation. Methods: Deceased donor and recipient data of 25 consecutive cases of fSLT at Department of Hepatopancreatobiliary Surgery, Ningbo Medical Center Lihuili Hospital from March to December 2021 was retrieved and the patients divided into two groups:LHG group and RHG group. Among the 13 donors,11 were male and 2 were female,aged (M(IQR))38(19) years(range: 25 to 56 years),with height of 168(5) cm(range:160 to 175 cm) and weight of 65(9) kg(range: 50 to 75 kg). The median age of the 25 recipients was 52(14) years(range:35 to 71 years),17 were male and 8 were female,15 had primary liver cancer and 10 had benign end-stage liver disease,model for end-stage liver disease score was 10(9) points(range:7 to 23 points). Of the 25 recipients,10 recipients had previously undergone hepatobiliary surgery. The follow-up period was to January 2022. Demographic,clinicopathological,surgical outcomes and postoperative complications were evaluated and compared between the two groups. Continuous quantitative data were compared using Mann-Whitney U test. Classification data were expressed as frequencies,and were compared between groups using χ² test or Fisher exact probability method. Results: Using LDLT technique,in-situ full-left/full-right liver splitting was performed and 13 viable pairs of hemiliver grafts were harvested with acquisition time of 230(53) minutes(range:125 to 352 minutes) and blood loss of 250(100) ml(range:150 to 1 000 ml). A total of 25 hemiliver grafts(13 LHG and 12 RHG) were allocated to patients listed for liver transplantation in our center by China Organ Transplant Response System. In the LHG group(13 cases),there were more females and more patients with benign end-stage liver disease than in the RHG group(12 cases)(P<0.05). The body weight and graft weight of recipients in the LHG group were lower than that in RHG group(both P<0.05). There were no significant differences in other baseline data between the two groups(all P>0.05). The graft to recipient weight ratio(GRWR) was 1.2(0.4)%(range:0.7% to 1.9%) for 25 recipients,1.1(0.5)%(range:0.7% to 1.6%)for the LHG group and 1.3(0.5)%(range:0.9% to 1.9%)for the RHG group. There was no significant difference between the two groups (P>0.05). Sharing patterns of hepatic vessels and the common bile duct are as follows:all the trunk of middle hepatic vein were allocated to the LHG group. The proportion of celiac trunk,main portal vein and common bile duct assigned to LHG and RHG was 10∶3 (P=0.009), 9∶4 (P>0.05) and 4∶9 (P=0.027),respectively. The vena cava of 12 donors in early stage retained in LHG and that of last one was shared between LHG and RHG (P<0.01). The median cold ischemia time of 25 hemiliver grafts was 240(90) minutes(range:138 to 420 minutes). For the total of 25 fSLT,the median anhepatic phase was 50(16) minutes(range:31 to 98 minutes) and the operation time was 474(138)minutes(range:294 to 680 minutes) with blood loss of 800(640) ml(range:200 to 5 000 ml). There were no significant differences in all of operation data between two groups. In the LHG group,3 patients with GRWR≤0.8% had postoperative small-for-size syndrome which improved after treatment. Postoperative Clavien-Dindo grade≥Ⅲ complications were observed in 6 cases(24.0%),4 cases(4/13) in the LHG group and 2 cases(2/12) in the RHG group,respectively. The difference was not statistically significant. Among them,5 cases improved after re-operation and intervention,1 case in LHG group died of secondary infection 2 weeks after operation,and the mortality was 4.0%. Analysis of serious postoperative complications and death has suggested that conventional caval interposition should not be used for LHG transplantation. Conclusion: Relying on accurate donor-recipient evaluation and the apply of LDLT technique,the morbidity and mortality of in-situ fSLT in adults is acceptable.

AIM:To investigate the role of SDF-1α/CXCR4 axis in pancreatic cancer cell migration and invasion.METHODS:The mRNA expression of CXCR4 in 4 pancreatic cancer cell lines was detected by RT-qPCR.The migration and invasion abilities of PANC-1 cells with the axis activated by exogenous SDF-1αor inhibited by CXCR4 inhibitor AMD3100 were detected by Transwell assays.The cell viability was measured by MTS assay.The protein expression of the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) -related molecules in the cells treated with exogenous SDF-1αor AMD3100 was determined by Western blot.RESULTS:All of the 4 pancreatic cancer cell lines expressed CXCR4 mRNA, while the PANC-1 cell line expressed the most.Exogenous SDF-1αpromoted the migration and invasion abilities of PANC-1 cells, which was inhibited by AMD3100.The PANC-1 cells treated with exogenous SDF-1αfor 72 h grew faster, while SDF-1αcombined with AMD3100 made little significance to the viability of PANC-1 cells.Exogenous SDF-1αinduced EMT of PANC-1 cells by up-regulating the expression of SNAIL and TWIST, and AMD3100 reversed this effect.CONCLUSION:SDF-1α/CXCR4 axis enhances the migration and invasion abilities of pancreatic cancer cells through inducing EMT.

AIM:To investigate the protective effect of basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF)on the heart of mice with myocardial infarction and its mechanism.METHODS:The model of myocardial infarction was established by the ligation of left anterior descending artery of C57/B6 mice(8～12 weeks old)after lateral thoracotomy.The mice were divided into sham operation group ,myocardial infarction group and bFGF administration group.bFGF at 0.5μg was intra-peritoneally injected on alternate days after myocardial infarction for 7 d.Cardiac Doppler ultrasonography was used to de-tect cardiac function after myocardial infarction for 28 d,and left ventricular end-diastolic diameter ,left ventricular end-systolic diameter,left ventricular ejection fraction and left ventricular shortening fraction(LVFS)were used to evaluate cardiac function.After myocardial infarction for 28 d,the mice were sacrificed and the hearts were collected for preparing pathological sections.The degrees of myocardial fibrosis and angiogenesis in the myocardial infarction area were observed. Western blot was used to detect the indicators of angiogenesis.RESULTS:The results of Masson staining showed that bF-GF administration significantly reduced myocardial fibrosis at 28 d after myocardial infarction.Cardiac ultrasound data showed that cardiac functions in myocardial infarction group were poorer than those in sham group ,and bFGF administration significantly improved cardiac functions.Immunofluorescence staining showed that neovascularization in myocardial infarc -tion area of bFGF administration group was more than that in myocardial infarction group.The results of Western blot showed that bFGF activated AKT/HIF-1α/VEGF signaling pathway.CONCLUSION:Intraperitoneal injection of bFGF reduces myocardial fibrosis and improves cardiac function in myocardial infarction mice.bFGF may promote angiogenesis by activating AKT/HIF-1α/VEGF signaling pathway.

Objective To analyze the depression status and its associated factors of residents in Anting Town of Shanghai.Methods By adopting a multi-stage random sampling method, 2 500 people were selected from among the residents in Anting Town.Questionnaires were independently completed by the residents surveyed and a total of 2 498 valid questionnaires were collected.The depression module for Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) was used to evaluate depression symptoms.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to analyze the depression status and its associated factors.Results The detection rate of depression symptoms was 4.60% and the main symptom was light depression.Lack of vitality, eating disorders, sleep disorders and loss of enjoyment were among the most frequently-selected items in the univariate evaluation for the depression status.The results of univariate analyses indicated that age, educational level, marital status, self-evaluated health status and average(per person) family monthly income were the factors associated with the depression status.The results of multivariateanalyses indicated that self-evaluated health status and average(per person) family monthly income were the main associated factors.Conclusion The prevalence of depression status for the residents in Anting Town is relatively low.Emphases should be focused on the residents with poor health condition and with the average(per person) family monthly income below 2 000 RMB yuan.

BACKGROUNDMeningioma is one of the most common primary tumors of the central nervous system, but there are not many detailed studies on the sex, age, subtypes and locations of large series. This study was a retrospective analysis of the characteristics of meningioma cases consecutively operated on at a single institution in China from 2001 to 2010.

METHODSThis study investigated the demographic background of 7084 meningioma cases, and the subtypes and locations of the tumors. Sex and age distributions were analyzed, and the pathological subtypes were classified according to the World Health Organization (WHO) classification. The location of the meningiomas was also categorized.

RESULTSThe female:male ratio of the 7084 cases was 2.34:1. The mean age was 51.4 years (range, 11 months-86 years). The mean age of cases of WHO grade I meningioma was significantly older than that of grade II or III meningiomas (P < 0.001, Fisher's Least Significant Digit test). There was a significantly higher female:male ratio in WHO grade I meningiomas than in grade II or grade III meningiomas (2.57, 1.03 and 0.76, respectively; P < 0.001, χ(2) test). Meningothelial (n = 2061) and fibrous meningiomas (n = 3556) were the most common subtypes, comprising 79.3% of all meningiomas. All meningioma cases were classified into 23 locations in this study, with the cerebral convexity the most common site (38.33%, n = 2722). Cases with uncommon locations such as extra-cranial and sylvian fissure meningiomas were also present in this series.

CONCLUSIONSFemale predominance was found for benign meningiomas, while malignant subtypes showed male predominance. The mean age of patients with WHO grade I meningiomas was older than that of patients with higher-grade tumors. Meningothelial and fibrous meningiomas were the most common subtypes. The cerebral convexity was the most common meningioma location.
