Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of lymphatic venous anastomosis based on MRI lymphangiography classifi-cation on lower limb lymphedema,and to analyze the factors affecting the therapeutic effect of lymphatic venous anastomosis.Methods A total of 378 patients with secondary lymphedema of lower limbs were selected.All of them underwent MRI lymphangiography.The differ-ence of circumference diameter and complication rate of the lower limbs of different types of patients before and after lymphatic venous anastomosis were compared.After 6 months of follow-up,the therapeutic effect was evaluated according to the International Lymphology Society classification standards for lymphedema.The risk factors affecting the therapeutic effect of lymphatic venous anastomosis was ana-lyzed,and a prediction model was established to analyze the value of this model in evaluating the clinical efficacy of lymphatic venous anastomosis.Results There was no significant difference in treatment efficiency and postoperative complication rate among different types of patients(P＞0.05).The difference of circumference diameter of the lower limbs of type 3,type 4,type 5 and type 6 before and after treatment was greater than that of type 1,type 2 and type 7(P＜0.05).Age,concomitant infection and lymph node venous fistula were the factors affecting the clinical efficacy of lymphatic venous anastomosis(P＜0.05).The risk prediction model for the clinical efficacy of lymphatic venous anastomo-sis was developed through logistic regression analysis:P=1/[1+e(0.531Xage+0.722Xconcomitant infection+0.807Xlymph node venous fistula-1.249)].The Hosmer-Leme-show test indicated that the fitted model matched the standard curve with x2=2.190,P=0.975.The area under the curve(AUC)of the prediction model for the clinical efficacy of lymphatic venous anastomosis was 0.985,with a standard error(S.E)value of 0.009 and a 95％confidence interval(CI)of 0.967 to 1.000.Conclusion Lymphatic venous anastomosis based on MRI lymphangiography classifi-cation has better clinical efficacy and fewer complications in the treatment of lower limb lymphedema,and the prediction model based on the risk factors analysis has a high predictive value for the clinical efficacy of lymphatic venous anastomosis.

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.

AIM:To explore the effect and mechanism of action of the aqueous extract of Fritillaria ussuriensis(FU-AE)against nonalcoholic fatty liver disease(NAFLD).METHODS:The association between Fritillaria ussuriensis Maxir.(FU)and NAFLD was analyzed by network pharmacology.A mouse model of NAFLD was induced in mice by high fat diet(HFD)+10%fructose drinking water,and three doses of Fritillaria ussuriensis aqueous extract were given to the mice for intervention.Colorimetric assay was used for detection of aspartate aminotransferase(AST),alanine aminotrans-ferase(ALT),triglyceride(TG),total cholesterol(TC),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C)levels in the serum of experimental mice.Hematoxylin and eosin staining was used to as-sess the pathological and histological changes in the liver of mice and to clarify the anti-NAFLD effect of aqueous extracts of Fritillaria ussuriensis.Liver tissue proteins were extracted,and expression of proteins related to the AMP-activated pro-tein kinase(AMPK)/acetyl-CoA carboxylase(ACC)pathway was detected by Western blot to clarify the mechanism of an-ti-NAFLD action of Fritillaria ussuriensis.The microbial composition of cecum contents was explored using 16S rRNA se-quencing to reveal the modulatory effect of the aqueous extract of Fritillaria ussuriensis on the structure of intestinal flora in mice with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.RESULTS:Aqueous extract of Fritillaria ussuriensis(high dose)ameliorated exogenous adipocyte infiltration in the liver of mice with NAFLD(P<0.05).AST,ALT,TG,TC and LDL-C levels were significantly decreased(P<0.05)and HDL-C levels were significantly increased(P<0.05)in the high-dose group.Aque-ous extract of Fritillaria ussuriensis(high dose)significantly increased expression of phosphorylated AMPKα,AMPKα,and phosphorylated ACC in the livers of the model mice(P<0.05),significantly reduced expression of ACC(P<0.05),and significantly increased the relative abundance of the potentially beneficial bacteria Faecalibaculum rodentium,Lacto-bacillus johnsonii,Akkermansia muciniphila(P<0.05).CONCLUSION:Aqueous extract of Fritillaria ussuriensis may ameliorate NAFLD in mice by activating the AMPK/ACC pathway and modulating the structure of intestinal flora.

Objective To establish the measurement of IgA1 O-glycan-specific antiglycan autoantibodies in patients with IgA nephropathy (IgAN),and evaluate their role in the development and progression of IgAN.Methods In the IgAN regular follow-up cohort of Peking University Institute of Nephrology from January 2006 to December 2015,170 patients drawn by stratified randomization were enrolled in this study.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to determine the levels of plasma galactose-deficient IgA1 (Gd-IgA1) and antiglycan autoantibody (IgG and IgA1).The correlation between antiglycan autoantibodies and clinicopathological parameters was analyzed by linear correlation and multiple linear regression analysis.The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was used to evaluate the value of plasma anti glycide antibodies in the diagnosis of IgAN.Results IgG and IgA1 antiglycan antoantibodies that specifically recognized Fab-hinge region (Fab-HR) antigens could be detected in both IgAN and healthy control group.Agglutinin inhibition test showed that the specific antigen epitope was N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) residue exposed to galactose deficiency in IgA1 hinged region.There was no significant difference in the absolute levels of plasma IgG antiglycan autoantibodies between IgAN and healthy controls (P=0.963).After adjustment of the plasma level of IgG,the normalized antiglycan autoantibody (ln[IgG antiglycan antibody/IgG]) in patients with IgANwas significantly higher than that in healthy controls (0.58±0.31 vs 0.37±0.11,P ＜ 0.01).The normalized level of IgG antiglycan autoantibody in IgAN patients was positively correlated with 24 h urine protein level during renal biopsy (Spearman r=0.183,P ＜ 0.05),and was also significantly correlated with 24 h urinary protein level after adjusting for baseline clinical and pathological factors (β=0.713,95％CI 0.323-1.102,P ＜ 0.01).The area under ROC curve (AUC) of normalized IgG antiglycan autoantibody in the diagnosis of IgAN was 0.764 (95％ CI 0.682-0.845,P ＜ 0.05).Using the cut-off value of 0.396,the sensitivity and specificity of normalized IgG antiglycan autoantibody for IgAN were 0.729 and 0.700 respectively.There was no significant difference in the absolute or normalized levels of IgA1 antiglycan autoantibodies between IgAN patients and healthy controls.Conclusions Gd-IgA1-specific antiglycan autoantibodies can be detected both in IgAN patients and healthy controls.They are elevated in some patients with IgAN and possibly involved in the development of IgAN.

Objective To investigate the CT features of early infection stage of thoracic and pulmonary paragonimiasis. Methods Medical records of 56 patients with thoracic and pulmonary paragonimiasis from January 2010 to June 2017 were collected, and the patients were diagnosed and treated at Yongjia County People's Hospital, and the results of laboratory examination and CT imaging features were analyzed retrospectively. Results The absolute value of eosinophils in peripheral blood of 56 patients was (5.61 ± 3.18) × 109/L, and the percentage of eosinophils was (35.90 ± 19.16)％, all of which increased to varying degrees. Forty-two patients had different degrees of pleural effusion and 52 cases with lung lesions. Lung lesions demonstrated one or several kinds of foci at the same time, randomly distributed in the lung field, mostly located in the sub-pleural lung tissue. There were 12 cases with pulmonary ground glass shadow, 4 cases with peribronchitis, 31 cases with pulmonary invasive lesions and 28 cases with pulmonary nodular/strip shadow. The size of most nodules were 0.5 - 1.0 cm, accompanied with halo sign. Conclusions The CT features of early infection stage of thoracic and pulmonary paragonimiasis are diverse. The size of 0.5 - 1.0 cm lung nodules with halo sign has certain characteristics in the diagnosis of paragonimiasis. Peribronchitis, infiltrative lesions, pleural effusion and increased peripheral blood eosinophil percentage can suggest diagnosis.
