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 explore the difference of lymphocyte subsets in peripheral blood(PB)between aplastic anemia(AA)and hypoplastic myelodysplastic syndrome(hypo-MDS)patients,meanwhile to compare the clinical parameters obtained from PB and bone marrow(BM).Methods:The lymphocyte subsets in hypo-MDS(n=25)and AA(n=33)patients were investigated by flow cytometry.Meanwhile,the differences in PB cell counts,biochemical indicators,BM cell counts and abnormal chromosomes between the two groups were analyzed.Results:The percentage of CD8+T cells in A A group was significantly higher than that in hypo-MDS group(P=0.001),while the percentage of CD4+T cells and the CD4+/CD8+ratio in AA group were obviously lower than those in hypo-MDS group(P=0.015 and0.001,respectively).Furthermore,the proportion of CD4+andCD8+activated T(TA)cells,and memory Tregs in AA group was distinctly lower than those in hypo-MDS group(P=0.043,0.015 and 0.024,respectively).Nevertheless,the percentage of CD8+naive T(TN)cells in AA patients was remarkably higher(P=0.044).And hypo-MDS patients had declined lymphocyte counts(P=0.025),increased levels of total bilirubin(TBil),lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),vitamin B12 and proportion of BM blasts than AA patients(P=0.019,0.023,0.027 and 0.045,respectively).Conclusion:In this study it was confirmed that the percentages of CD4+and CD8+TA cells,memory Tregs and CD8+TN cells were significantly different between AA and hypo-MDS patients,which provide an essential basis for the identification of these two diseases.

Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of autologous platelet separation (APS) in different time courses of cardiovascular surgery.Methods:The relevant data of 75 patients with cardiovascular surgery from September 2019 to August 2021 in Hunan Provincial Peoples′ Hospital were collected retrospectively. They were divided into two groups according to whether APS was used during the operation: group A used APS (37 cases) and group B did not use APS (38 cases). The two groups were divided into subgroups according to the length of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB): A1 and B1 were medium and short-term groups (CPB bypass time ≤200 min), and A2 and B2 were long-term groups (CPB bypass time >200 min). Blood routine, postoperative drainage volume, postoperative blood product infusion volume and thromboelastogram at different time points were recorded and compared.Results:The postoperative drainage volume, red blood cell infusion volume and ventilator assisted time in group A were less than those in group B (all P<0.05); The postoperative drainage volume [(645.79±205.25)ml vs (886.67±360.96)ml, P=0.006], erythrocyte infusion volume [(3.24±2.53)U vs (4.77±1.97)U, P=0.016], platelet infusion volume [0.00(0.00, 0.00)U vs 1.00(0.125, 2.00)U, P=0.002] and thromboelastogram coagulation reaction time [(7.38±1.74)min vs (9.09±3.57)min, P=0.047] in group A2 were significantly better than those in group B2 (all P<0.05); There were no significant difference in the above indexes between A1 and B1 group (all P>0.05). Conclusions:APS can improve the coagulation function of patients undergoing cardiopulmonary bypass and reduce the amount of bleeding and blood products. Its protective effect is more prominent in high-risk cardiovascular surgery with long cardiopulmonary bypass and complex operation.

In order to establish the probabilistic risk assessment method for heavy metals and harmful elements in line with the characteristics of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and provide guidance for the safe use of TCM, the contents of lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd), arsenic (as), mercury (Hg) and copper (Cu) in 21 batches of Plantago asiatica L. were determined by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). By the comprehensive use of investigation of TCM consumption pattern and Monte Carlo simulation technology, the non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic health risks of heavy metals and harmful elements in TCM were assessed by hazard quotient (HQ) and cancer risk (CR), respectively. The greatest risk contributors were screened through sensitivity analysis. The results revealed that the mean contents of Pb, Cd, As, Hg and Cu in Plantago asiatica L. were 9.01, 0.28, 3.83, 0.01 and 12.82 mg·kg^-1, respectively. The P95, P99 and maximum values of HQ for males were 1.41, 2.83 and 10.97 mg·kg^-1, respectively. The P95, P99 and maximum values of HQ for females were 1.27, 2.63 and 9.80 mg·kg^-1, respectively. The P95, P99 and maximum values of HI for males were 1.44, 2.85 and 11.0 mg·kg^-1, respectively. The P95, P99 and maximum values of HI for females were 1.29, 2.66 and 10.0 mg·kg^-1, respectively. The P99 and maximum values for CR_As and total carcinogenic risk (TCR) were greater than 10^-4 for both men and women. The risk assessment results indicated that the non-carcinogenic and carcinogenic health risks of high exposure population caused by arsenic exposure are needed to be concern. The results of sensitivity analysis showed that the exposure frequency of TCM and the arsenic concentrations in Plantago asiatica L. were the main risk contributors. Based on Monte Carlo simulation technology and considering the characteristics of TCM, this study puts forward the first example of probabilistic risk assessment of heavy metals and harmful elements in Chinese herbal medicine, which provides a novel perspective for health risk assessment of heavy metals in TCM.

Objective:To analyze the prognostic factors of patients with Ⅰ B1-Ⅱ A cervical cancers after surgery and to assess the effects and adverse reactions of intensity-modulated radiotherapy(IMRT)combined with concurrent chemotherapy(CCRT). Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed based on the clinical and follow-up data of 362 patients with Ⅰ B1-Ⅱ A cervical cancers who were treated in Changzhou Second People′s Hospital from January 2009 to December 2019. Meanwhile, these patients suffered large primary tumors(LPT; tumors size: ≥4 cm), lymphatic vascular space invasion (LVSI), and deep stromal invasion(DSI; stromal infiltration depth: ≥1/2) after surgery and showed at least one intermediate-risk factor. Among these cases, 161 cases were treated with CCRT, 131 cases under-went single radiotherapy (RT), and 70 cases received unadjuvanted radiotherapy. The Kaplan-Meier method and the logrank test were adopted for univariate survival analysis, the binary logistic regression was used to analyze the recurrence risk, and Cox regression model was used for multivariate survival analysis. Results:The 3 and 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were 94.20% and 88.39%, respectively. The retrospective analysis showed that the risk factors of recurrence included tumor size ≥ 4 cm and poorly differentiated cancers( OR=3.287, 2.870, 95% CI: 1.366-7.905, 1.105-7.457, P<0.05). Compared with the treatment without adjuvant radiotherapy and RT, CCRT reduced the recurrence rate of tumors with tumor size of ≥ 4 cm, adenocarcinomas or adenosquamous carcinomas (pathological types), and poorly differentiated carcinomas( χ2=6.725-7.518, P<0.05). A multivariate analysis showed that the CCRT improved the recurrence-free survival ( HR=0.290, 95% CI: 0.128-0.659, P=0.003) and OS ( HR=0.370, 95% CI: 0.156-0.895, P=0.024). A subgroup analysis indicated that CCRT prolonged the OS of patients with tumor size ≥ 4 cm or poorly differentiated cancers compared to the patients receiving no radiotherapy or those treated with RT (χ 2=7.614, 5.964, P<0.05). Compared with the cases receiving single radiotherapy, those receiving CCRT did not suffer an increase in the incidence of hematology, radiation enteritis, and cystitis above grade 3 according to observation ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Among the intermediate-risk factors leading to the recurrence of postoperative cervical cancers, the factors of large primary tumors or poorly differentiated cancers affect the prognosis of patients.Compared with RT and the treatment without adjuvant radiotherapy, IMRT combined with concurrent chemotherapy can prolong the recurrence-free survival and overall survival of patients with large tumors or poorly differentiated cancers and adverse reactions induced are tolerable.

BACKGROUND: The current deep learning diagnosis of breast masses is mainly reflected by the diagnosis of benign and malignant lesions. In China, breast masses are divided into four categories according to the treatment method: inflammatory masses, adenosis, benign tumors, and malignant tumors. These categorizations are important for guiding clinical treatment. In this study, we aimed to develop a convolutional neural network (CNN) for classification of these four breast mass types using ultrasound (US) images. METHODS: Taking breast biopsy or pathological examinations as the reference standard, CNNs were used to establish models for the four-way classification of 3623 breast cancer patients from 13 centers. The patients were randomly divided into training and test groups (n = 1810 vs. n = 1813). Separate models were created for two-dimensional (2D) images only, 2D and color Doppler flow imaging (2D-CDFI), and 2D-CDFI and pulsed wave Doppler (2D-CDFI-PW) images. The performance of these three models was compared using sensitivity, specificity, area under receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC), positive (PPV) and negative predictive values (NPV), positive (LR+) and negative likelihood ratios (LR-), and the performance of the 2D model was further compared between masses of different sizes with above statistical indicators, between images from different hospitals with AUC, and with the performance of 37 radiologists. RESULTS: The accuracies of the 2D, 2D-CDFI, and 2D-CDFI-PW models on the test set were 87.9%, 89.2%, and 88.7%, respectively. The AUCs for classification of benign tumors, malignant tumors, inflammatory masses, and adenosis were 0.90, 0.91, 0.90, and 0.89, respectively (95% confidence intervals [CIs], 0.87-0.91, 0.89-0.92, 0.87-0.91, and 0.86-0.90). The 2D-CDFI model showed better accuracy (89.2%) on the test set than the 2D (87.9%) and 2D-CDFI-PW (88.7%) models. The 2D model showed accuracy of 81.7% on breast masses ≤1 cm and 82.3% on breast masses >1 cm; there was a significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.001). The accuracy of the CNN classifications for the test set (89.2%) was significantly higher than that of all the radiologists (30%). CONCLUSIONS: The CNN may have high accuracy for classification of US images of breast masses and perform significantly better than human radiologists.

Objective:To discuss the safety and effectiveness of del Nido cardioplegia solution in severe valvular surgery.Methods:A retrospective analysis of 138 patients of severe valvular disease underwent valve replacement or valvuloplasty in Hunan Provincial People′s Hospital between July 2019 and December 2020 was performed. According to the different cardioplegic solution used, patients were separated in two groups: the del Nido cardioplegia group (D group, n=73) and the St. Thomas cardioplegia group (C group, n=65). The perioperative clinical results of the two groups were compared to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of del Nido cardioplegia in the operation of severe valvular disease. Results:Preoperative characteristics were similar between the two groups, including gender, age, body weight, ejection fraction, and myocardial markers ( P>0.05). No statistical differences were noted in cardiopulmonary bypass time, clamp time, mechanical ventilation time, vasoactive drug use time, ICU and hospital stay time, and ejection fraction before discharge ( P>0.05). However, the times of cardioplegia perfusion [(1.33±0.47)times vs (4.08±0.48)times] and the total perfusion time [(3.96±1.41)min vs (13.15±1.46)min] in group D were lower than those in group C, while the automatic rebound rate (90.41% vs 76.92%) was higher than that in group C ( P<0.05). Both groups successfully completed the operation. There were no serious complications of important organs such as low cardiac output, brain, liver and kidney during and after the operation. There were no deaths during hospitalization, and all patients were cured and discharged. Conclusions:There was no significant difference in myocardial protection between del Nido and St. Thomas cardioplegia solution in severe valvular surgery. The application of del Nido cardioplegia could reduce the frequency of perfusions and total perfusion time.

Purpose::To investigate the accuracy and efficiency of bedside ultrasonography application performed by certified sonographer in emergency patients with blunt abdominal trauma.Methods::The study was carried out from 2017 to 2019. Findings in operations or on computed tomography (CT) were used as references to evaluate the accuracy of bedside abdominal ultrasonography. The time needed for bedside abdominal ultrasonography or CT examination was collected separately to evaluate the efficiency of bedside abdominal ultrasonography application.Results::Bedside abdominal ultrasonography was performed in 106 patients with blunt abdominal trauma, of which 71 critical patients received surgery. The overall diagnostic accordance rate was 88.68%. The diagnostic accordance rate for liver injury, spleen injury, kidney injury, gut perforation, retroperitoneal hematoma and multiple abdominal organ injury were 100%, 94.73%, 94.12%, 20.00%, 100% and 81.48%, respectively. Among the 71 critical patients, the diagnostic accordance rate was 94.37%, in which the diagnostic accordance rate for liver injury, spleen injury, kidney injury, gut perforation and multiple abdominal organ injury were 100%, 100%, 100%, 20.00% and 100%. The mean time for imaging examination of bedside abdominal ultrasonography was longer than that for CT scan (4.45 ± 1.63 vs. 2.38 ± 1.19) min; however, the mean waiting time before examination (7.37 ± 2.01 vs. 16.42 ± 6.37) min, the time to make a diagnostic report (6.42 ± 3.35 vs. 36.26 ± 13.33) min, and the overall time (17.24 ± 2.33 vs. 55.06 ± 6.96) min were shorter for bedside abdominal ultrasonography than for CT scan. Conclusion::Bedside ultrasonography application provides both efficiency and reliability for the assessment of blunt abdominal trauma. Especially for patients with free peritoneal effusion and critical patients, bedside ultrasonography has been proved obvious advantageous. However, for negative bedside ultrasonography patients with blunt abdominal trauma, we recommend further abdominal CT scan or serial ultrasonography scans subsequently.

Objective: To study on the physical and chemical properties of dichroa alkali hydrochloride and to establish a method for the determination of entrapment efficiency of dichroa alkali hydrochloride liposomes. Method: HPLC was used to determine the content of dichroa alkali hydrochloride with mobile phase of acetonitrile-water-triethylamine-glacial acetic acid(9:91:0.35:0.75) and detection wavelength at 265 nm.The oil-water partition coefficient of this compound in different pH range was measured by shake flask method.The stability of the dichroa alkali hydrochloride in phosphate buffer solution with different pH after sterilization at 125℃ for 30 min was investigated.Ammonium sulfate gradient method was used to prepare dichroa alkali hydrochloride liposomes.The microcolumn was prepared by dextran gel and cation exchange resin,respectively.Then the free drug and liposome were separated by centrifugation,the drug content was measured,and the encapsulation efficiency was calculated.The t-test was performed using SPSS 20.0 software,the differences between these two methods were compared. Result: In the pH 6-9,the oil-water partition coefficient of dichroa alkali hydrochloride increased with increasing of pH,which was between 0.016 and 1.44;the recovery rate of dichroa alkali hydrochloride after sterilization was 37.16%-57.91%.Between the dextran gel microcolumn centrifugation and the cation exchange resin microcolumn centrifugation,there was no significant difference in the entrapment efficiency of the liposomes. Conclusion: Dichroa alkali hydrochloride is suitable for preparation of liposomes.However,its stability is not ideal,so the experimental temperature should be strictly controlled in the preparation process.Dextran gel microcolumn centrifugation and cation exchange resin microcolumn centrifugation can be used to determine the entrapment efficiency of dichroa alkali hydrochloride liposomes,and the cation exchange resin microcolumn centrifugation is suggested after comparison.
