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 association between split foot and electrophysiology in patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).Methods:The clinically definite or clinically probable ALS patients hospitalized in the Department of Neurology, the First Medical Center of Chinese People′s Liberation Army General Hospital from April 2021 to December 2022 were prospectively collected. From April 2021 to December 2022, patients who visited the Chinese People′s Liberation Army General Hospital for other reasons without abnormal electrophysiological examination were collected as the control group. The incidence of split leg [the limb whose modified Medical Research Council Muscle Strength Scale (mMRC) score of ankle dorsiflexors was lower than that of ankle plantarflexors] in ALS patients was calculated, and the incidence of split foot (the limb whose mMRC score of hallux dorsiflexors was lower than that of hallux plantarflexors) in ALS patients was calculated. The amplitude of compound muscle action potential (CMAP) of common peroneal nerve and tibial nerve was detected to observe the involvement of motor neurons innervating ankle dorsiflexors and ankle plantarflexors. The characteristics of split leg and split foot in ALS patients were analyzed from the perspective of muscle strength, and the characteristics of split foot in ALS patients were analyzed from the perspective of electrophysiology. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the sensitivity and specificity of peroneal nerve/tibial nerve CMAP amplitude ratio in distinguishing ALS patients from controls.Results:A total of 101 ALS patients with lower limb involvement and 110 controls with normal lower limb muscle strength were collected. Among the 101 ALS patients with lower limb involvement, strength of ankle plantarflexors was greater than that of ankle dorsiflexors in 35.64% (36/101) patients, strength of ankle dorsiflexors was greater than that of ankle plantarflexors in 5.94% (6/101) patients, and strength of ankle plantarflexors and ankle dorsiflexors was equal in 58.42% (59/101) patients. Strength of hallux dorsiflexors was lower than that of hallux plantarflexors in 53.47% (54/101) patients, strength of hallux dorsiflexors was greater than that of hallux plantarflexors in 1.98% (2/101) patients, and the strength of hallux dorsiflexors and hallux plantarflexors was equal in 44.55% (45/101) patients. The incidence of split leg was negatively correlated with age ( OR=0.25, 95% CI 0.16-0.40, P<0.05), course of disease ( OR=0.52, 95% CI 0.38-0.80 P<0.05) and ALS functional revised scores ( OR=0.29, 95% CI 0.12-0.67, P<0.05). The incidence of split foot was negatively correlated with the onset time of lower limb symptoms ( OR=0.96, 95% CI 0.93-0.99, P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the differences of the decrease of CMAP amplitude in the common peroneal nerve and tibial nerve [the common peroneal nerve (6.45±2.56) mV vs (3.63±1.83) mV, tibial nerve (12.87±4.72) mV vs (9.18±6.22) mV] were statistically significant ( t=-4.65, t=-3.44, both P<0.001) and the differences of the peroneal nerve/tibial nerve CMAP amplitude ratio (0.54±0.24 vs 0.36±0.18) decrease was statistically significant ( t=-4.31, P<0.001) in patients with split foot. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve of CMAP amplitude ratio of common peroneal nerve/tibial nerve in ALS patients with split foot was 0.70, indicating that the accuracy of CMAP amplitude of common peroneal nerve/tibial nerve in distinguishing ALS patients from controls was low. Conclusions:In ALS patients with lower limb involvement, strength of ankle dorsiflexors is weaker than that of ankle plantarflexors, and strength of hallux dorsiflexors is weaker than that of hallux plantarflexors. At the diagnostic level, the CMAP amplitude ratio of common peroneal nerve/tibial nerve in ALS patients with split foot has a lower accuracy in the diagnosis of ALS.

‍Due to significant innovations in the diagnosis and treatment of hepatitis D virus （HDV）， the European Society of Hepatology （EASL） published its first international clinical practice guidelines on the management of individuals with HDV infection in July 2023. The guidelines mainly focus on the six aspects of HDV screening， diagnosis， clinical features and influencing factors， patient monitoring and selection for treatment， therapeutic methods and treatment endpoints. The guidelines give recommendations by answering and elaborating on 13 questions covering these six aspects. In addition， the guidelines also provide the prospect of the future treatment of HDV. The author’s team makes an excerpt of the guidelines and systematically introduces various evaluation points in recommendations and clinical management suggestions， in order to promote the development of clinical management and decision-making for individuals with HDV infection in China.

The primary cilium, a sensory organelle that protrudes from the surface of most eukaryotic cells, receives and transduces various critical signals that are essential for normal development and homeostasis. Structural or functional disruption of primary cilia causes a number of human diseases, including cancer. Primary cilia has cross talks with cell cycle and it may act as a cell cycle checkpoint to suppress cancer development. Moreover, primary cilia has cross-regulation with autophagy, which may affect tumor progression. We then discuss the association of the primary cilia with several oncogenic signaling pathways, including Shh, Wnt, Notch and platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR). Since these signaling pathways are often over-activated in many types of human cancers, primary cilia are likely to play a role in the tumorigenesis by modulating these pathways. Finally, we summarize current progress on the role of cilia during tumorigenesis and the challenges that the cilia-cancer field faces.

Posttransplant lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD) is a fatal complication after lung transplantation, which is intimately associated with age, immunosuppression level and Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, etc. Reducing immunosuppression level, rituximab therapy and T cell immunotherapy are common treatments for PTLD. With the rapid development of lung transplantation in China, PTLD after lung transplantation has attracted widespread attention. This article reviews the risk factors, pathological types, clinical manifestations, diagnosis, treatment, prognosis and prevention of PTLD after lung transplantation, aiming to provide reference for early monitoring and management of the incidence and progression of PTLD.

Objective:To investigate the diversity and structural characteristics of fungal communities on lesions of the face, upper limbs and back in patients with atopic dermatitis (AD) .Methods:Samples were collected from the lesions on the face, upper limbs and back of 10 AD patients, who visited the Department of Dermatology, the First Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu Medical College from September to October in 2015, and collected from the corresponding body sites of 10 healthy controls. DNA was extracted from the samples, and subjected to MiSeq high-throughput sequencing for diversity index analysis, species composition analysis and principal component analysis. Statistical analysis was carried out by using two-independent-sample t test for comparisons between two groups, one-way analysis of variance for comparisons among multiple groups, and least significant difference- t test for multiple comparisons. Results:Diversity index analysis showed that Shannon index was significantly higher in the samples from the lesions on the face, upper limbs and back of the AD patient group than in those from corresponding body sites of the healthy control group ( t = 2.67, 2.37, 3.34 respectively, all P < 0.05) . Species composition analysis showed that Malassezia was predominant in the skin samples from the face, upper limbs and back of the AD patient group and healthy control group, and the total abundance of Malassezia globosa and Malassezia restricta was about 80%. The abundance of Candida and Aspergillus in the total samples was significantly higher in the AD patient group than in the healthy control group ( t = 3.515, 2.137 respectively, both P < 0.05) . There was no significant difference in the abundance of major fungal genera on the face between the AD patient group and healthy control group (all P > 0.05) ; the abundance of Candida in the upper limbs was significantly higher in the AD patient group than in the healthy control group ( t = 3.186, P < 0.05) , and the abundance of Aspergillus in the back was significantly higher in the AD patient group than in the healthy control group ( t = 2.736, P < 0.05) . In either the AD patient group or the healthy control group, there was no significant difference in the abundance of major fungal genera among samples from the face, upper limbs and back (all P > 0.05) . Moreover, no significant difference in the abundance of major fungal genera was observed among the mild, moderate and severe AD patient groups (all P > 0.05) . Principal component analysis showed that fungal communities in the samples from the lesions on the face, upper limbs and back of the AD patient group were not clustered by the disease severity. Conclusions:The diversity of fungal communities is significantly higher in the lesions on the face, upper limbs and back of the AD patients than in the normal skin at the corresponding body sites of the healthy controls. Malassezia is the dominant fungal genus in both lesions of the AD patients and normal skin of the healthy controls at the above body sites. The composition of fungal communities in lesional samples may be uncorrelated with the disease severity in AD patients.

Objective:To explore the effect of combining hyperbaric oxygen inhalation with wet healing in the treatment of chronic refractory ulcers of the skin.Methods:Sixty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly formed into a general treatment group (group A), a wet healing group (group B), and a hyperbaric oxygen + wet healing group (group C), each of 20. Chronic and refractory skin ulcers were induced on all of the rats after one week of routine feeding and 6 hours of fasting. Six courses (once daily for 10 days/course)of the three treatments were then administered. After 2, 4 and 6 courses of treatment the wound healing rate and recovery were analyzed using histopathological methods.Results:After 2, 4 and 6 courses of treatment, the average wound healing rates of groups B and C were significantly higher than group A′s average, and that of group C was significantly better than that of group B. After 6 courses of treatment, group C′s average histopathology score was significantly higher than that of group B, and those of groups B and C were both significantly higher than group A′s average.Conclusion:Single wet healing is better than common treatment for chronic skin ulcers, but hyperbaric oxygen inhalation can further improve its effectiveness.

Objective:To explore the patterns and causes of occupational exposure to infectious diseases (OEID) among frontline medical staffs (FMS) in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) isolation wards (CIW), and the particularity of post-OEID management and the measures to prevent OEID.Methods:A total of 1 061 FMS of Wuhan Huoshenshan Hospital from February 4 to March 21, 2020 were enrolled. The OEID of FMS was investigated and analyzed from the perspectives of FMS physical and psychological conditions, protective equipment, infection-control related regulations and procedures, local air quality, exposure patterns, and the particularity of emergency treatment after exposure.Results:The incidence of OEID among FMS was 2.0%(21/1 061). The nurses and doctors accounted for 95.2%(20/21) and 4.8%(1/21), respectively. The incidences in 17 general wards and two intensive care units (ICU) were 71.4%(15/21) and 28.6%(6/21), respectively. Nearly 90.5%(19/21) and 9.5%(2/21) of the OEID events occurred in contaminated area and potential contaminated area, respectively. About 23.8%(5/21) of the OEID events were air exposure of oral-nasal skin, mucosa and respiratory tract, which was secondary to uncontrollable vomiting, and 76.2%(16/21) were pricking injuries. The inducement factors involved poor quality and inappropriate wearing of some goggles, atomization of the inside of goggles leading to blurring vision, chest distress and decreased sense of touch and operational flexibility related to level-3 protection equipment, poor air quality, FMS physical and psychological conditions, etc. Under the direction of "the Procedures for Handling OEID" , all incidents are properly handled and no FMS was infected by 2019 novel coronavirus and blood-borne pathogens. No new OEID event was found after the strict implement of set of preventive measures.Conclusions:The OEID among FMS in CIW is attributed to multiple causes. The optimized process that takes into account the specificity of OEID management for both COVID-19 and blood-borne infectious diseases can effectively prevent potential post-exposure infections. And reasonable precautions can fully reduce the risk of OEID of FMS in CIW.

OBJECTIVE： To study the development status of TCM enterprises of Nantong city and provide suggestions， and to promote the sustainable development of TCM enterprises of Nantong city. METHODS： Taking Nantong city as an example， questionnaires were issued to 15 TCM enterprises in Nantong （including 4 TCM decoction piece enterprises， 11 TCM pharmaceutical preparation enterprises）. The statistical analysis was carried out in respects of scale structure， development （including economic development and staff） and development potential （by enterprise R&D funds and R&D personnel input intensity） of enterprises during 2013-2017. RESULTS & CONCLUSIONS： In terms of the scale and structure of the enterprise， there were no large-scale enterprises in Nantong city， only 3 medium-sized enterprises， 12 small enterprises； the overall scale of enterprises was small； the overall concentration of TCM enterprises was not high， in which the market structure of TCM decoction piece enterprises was oligopolistic， and the structure of preparation enterprises was competitive. The concentration of TCM decoction enterprises was higher than that of TCM preparation enterprises. In terms of economic development， the annual average GDP and profit growth rate are 14.98％ and 19.09％ from 2014 to 2017； the economic development situation was good， but the brand variety advantage was not developed fully. In terms of staff， employee’s education level was mainly college degree （34.01％） and the staff category was mainly salesperson （32.73％）. In terms of the company’s development potential， enterprise R&D funds and R&D personnel input intensity were in low levels （average 2.96％， 11.32％ in 5 years）， the number of patents （16 in 2013 vs. 17 in 2017） and innovative products （7 in 2013 vs. 12 in 2017） increases slowly， and only one had opened up overseas markets. In response to the issues， TCM enterprises of Nantong city or other areas should merge and reorganize appropriately to expand the scale of the industry and improve the market concentration； increase research funds and talented personnel investment， insist the protection and in novation of TCM. In addition， build a big data “healthy cloud” platform to break the traditional industrial chain； at the same time， seize the “Belt and Road” policy finance and taxation opportunities to promote overseas and develop markets to promote the sustainable development of TCM enterprise.

The primary cilium is a microtubule-based sensory organelle. The molecular mechanism that regulates ciliary dynamics remains elusive. Here, we report an unexpected finding that MLN4924, a small molecule inhibitor of NEDD8-activating enzyme (NAE), blocks primary ciliary formation by inhibiting synthesis/assembly and promoting disassembly. This is mainly mediated by MLN4924-induced phosphorylation of AKT1 at Ser473 under serum-starved, ciliary-promoting conditions. Indeed, pharmaceutical inhibition (by MK2206) or genetic depletion (via siRNA) of AKT1 rescues MLN4924 effect, indicating its causal role. Interestingly, pAKT1-Ser activity regulates both ciliary synthesis/assembly and disassembly in a MLN4924 dependent manner, whereas pAKT-Thr determines the ciliary length in MLN4924-independent but VHL-dependent manner. Finally, MLN4924 inhibits mouse hair regrowth, a process requires ciliogenesis. Collectively, our study demonstrates an unexpected role of a neddylation inhibitor in regulation of ciliogenesis via AKT1, and provides a proof-of-concept for potential utility of MLN4924 in the treatment of human diseases associated with abnormal ciliogenesis.
