Through multi-omics testing and analysis, the study aims to conduct multi-omics big data research across the entire maternal and infant life cycle. The goal is to identify new biomarkers for maternal and infant diseases and provide scientific evidence for risk prediction related to maternal diseases and neonatal health.

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 effect of radiation on cardiomyocyte apoptosis and its related mechanism.Methods Rat H9C2 cardiomyocytes were divided into blank control group,X-ray irradiation group(X-ray group),X-ray irradiation+microRNA(miRNA)-134-5p inhibitor group(X-inhibitor group)and X-ray irradiation+miRNA-134-5p inhibitor negative control group(X-NC group).H9C2 cardiomyocytes were irradiated with 6 Gy X-ray,and the changes of various indexes were detected 48 h after irradiation.Cell viability was detected by cell counting kit 8 assay.The apoptosis rate was detected by flow cytometry and Hoechst 33342 staining.The level of reactive oxygen species(ROS)in cells was detected by DCFH-DA fluorescence probe.The mitochondrial membrane potential was detected by JC-1 method.The activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD)and the level of malondialdehyde(MDA)in cells were measured by kits.The expression of miRNA-134-5p was detected by quantitative polymerase chain reaction.The protein expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF),protein kinase B(Akt),phosphorylated Akt(p-Akt),Bcl2 and Bax was detected by Western blotting.Results Compared with the blank control group,in the X-ray group the levels of ROS and MDA were significantly increased,the activity of SOD was significantly decreased,the decreased percentage in mitochondrial membrane potential was significantly increased,the number of micronuclei of DNA damage was significantly increased,and the apoptosis rate was significantly increased(all P＜0.01).Compared with the X-ray group,all the indexes of the X-inhibitor group were reversed(P＜0.05 or P＜0.01),while there was no significant difference in the above parameters in the X-NC group(all P＞0.05).Compared with the blank control group,the X-ray group had a significant increase in the miRNA-134-5p level and significant reductions in the protein level of BDNF,Bcl2/Bax ratio,and p-Akt/Akt ratio(all P＜0.01).Compared with the X-ray group,the X-inhibitor group had a significant reduction in the level of miRNA-134-5p and significant increases in the protein level of BDNF,Bcl2/Bax ratio,and p-Akt/Akt ratio(all P＜0.01),and there was no significant difference in all parameters in the X-NC group(all P＞0.05).Conclusion X-ray irradiation can induce oxidative stress,mitochondrial damage,and DNA damage,eventually leading to apoptosis in rat cardiomyocytes,and the mechanism may involve miRNA-134-5p/BDNF/Akt signaling pathway.

AIM: To investigate the differences in visual recovery, corneal astigmatism, and rotation stability of Toric intraocular lens(TIOL)implantation in cataract patients with different axial lengths.METHODS: Retrospective analysis. A total of 132 patients(132 eyes)with age-related cataract and corneal astigmatism who underwent phacoemulsification cataract extraction combined with TIOL implantation in our hospital's ophthalmology department from February 2021 to September 2022 were selected. They were divided into two groups based on the axial length: the group with axial length ≤24mm(79 cases, 79 eyes)and the group with axial length >24mm(53 cases, 53 eyes). Compare the best corrected distance visual acuity(BCDVA), corneal astigmatism, and TIOL rotation between the two groups of patients at 3mo after surgery.RESULT: After 3mo of surgery, both groups of patients had improved BCDVA and significantly decreased corneal astigmatism compared to those before surgery(P<0.001). However, there was no difference in BCDVA and corneal astigmatism between the two groups(P>0.05), and there was no significant difference in TIOL rotation between the two groups [(5.24±3.72)° vs.(6.36±4.21)°, P=0.110].CONCLUSION: There is no significant difference in visual recovery, corneal astigmatism, and TIOL rotational stability after TIOL implantation in cataract patients with different axial lengths.

Objective To investigate the prevalence of soil-transmitted nematode human infections in Jurong City from 2016 to 2020, so as to provide the scientific evidence for formulating the control strategy. Methods During the period from 2016 to 2020, the permanent residents at ages of over 3 years living in Jurong City were selected as the study subjects. Stool samples were collected for the detection of soil-transmitted nematode eggs using the modified Kato-Katz thick smear method (two detections for one stool sample), and the species of hookworm was identified in stool-positive stool samples using the culture method. The prevalence and intensity of soil-transmitted nematode infections were calculated, and the change of the infection prevalence among years was examined using the Cochran-Armitage test for trend. Results A total of 10 011 people-time populations were detected for soil-transmitted nematode infections in Jurong City from 2016 to 2020, and 56 egg-positives were identified, with mean prevalence of 0.56%. The prevalence of soil-transmitted nematode human infections appeared a tendency towards a decline year by year in Jurong City (χ²_trend = 5.15, P < 0.01). The mean prevalence of hookworm, Ascaris lumbricoides and Trichuris trichiura infections was 0.44%, 0.11% and 0.20% in Jurong City from 2016 to 2020, respectively, and individuals with hookworm infections accounted for 78.57% of all cases with soil-transmitted nematode infections. Single parasite (98.21%) and mild infection were pre-dominant in individuals with soil-transmitted nematode infections, and no multiple infections were seen after 2016. Conclusions The prevalence of human soil-transmitted nematodiasis is low in Jurong City. Based on reinforcement of soil-transmitted nematodiasis surveillance, an increase in the health education investment is required to consolidate the control achievements.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the diagnostic value of multislice spiral CT (MSCT) and MRI in occult fracture of knee joint with meniscus and ligament injury. METHODS: From January 2020 to March 2021, 63 patients with knee occult fracture with meniscus and ligament injury, including 41 males and 22 females, aged from 21 to 67 years old, with an average of (44.35±8.77) years old, the course of disease ranged from 1 to 6 days, with an average of (4.64±1.75) days, the body mass index (BMI) was (19.85±2.78) kg/m². MSCT and MRI data of 63 patients were collected and statistically analyzed to evaluage their diagnist value. RESULTS: The detection of MRI for occult knee fravtures with meniscus and ligament injury, joint cavity effusion, bone marrow edema, and articular surface injury were 100.00% (63/63), 95.24% (60/63), 42.86% (27/63) and 36.51% (23/63), respectively. The detection rates of MSCT were 49.21% (31/63), 41.27% (26/63), 0.00% (0/63) and 1.59% (1/63), respectively, significantly lwver than that of MRI (P<0.05). The diagnostic sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of MRI were significantly higher than those of MSCT(P<0.05). CONCLUSION The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis of occult fracture of knee joint with meniscus and ligament injury are significantly better than that of MSCT. MRI has higher accuracy in the diagnosis of peripheral tissue diseases such as joint cavity, articular surface and bone marrow, and can reduce the risk of clinical misdiagnosis.

In this study, a high performance thin-layer chromatography/single quadrupole mass spectrometry QDa (HPTLC-QDa) method for robust authentication of Ganoderma lucidum, a popular and valuable herbal medicine, has been developed. This method is simple and practical, which allows direct generation of characteristic mass spectra from the HPTLC plates automatically with the application of in situ solvent desorption interface. The HPTLC silica gel plates were developed with toluene-ethyl formate-formic acid (5 : 5 : 0.2, V/V) and all bands were transferred to QDa system directly in situ using 80% methanol with 0.1% formic acid as desorption solvent. The acquired HPTLC-QDa spectra showed that luminous yellow band b3, containing ganoderic acid B/G/H and ganodeneric acid B, the major active components of Ganoderma, could be found only in G. lucidum and G. lucidum (Antler-shaped), but not in G. sinense and G. applanatum. Moreover, bands b13 and b14 with m/z 475/477 and m/z 475/491/495, respectively, could be detected in G. lucidum (Antler-shaped), but not in G. lucidum, thus allowing simple and robust authentication of G. lucidum with confused species. This method is proved to be simple, practical and reproducible, which can be extended to analyze other herbal medicines.

Objective: To investigate the effect of casein kinase 2 interacting protein-1 (CKIP-1) on craniofacial soft tissues and hard tissues, to provide the basis for the study and treatment of craniomaxillofacial related diseases. Methods: 6-month- old male CKIP-1 knockout (KO) mice were selected as the experimental group, and wild-type (WT) mice were selected as the control group. The craniomaxillofacial hard tissues (parietal bone, nasal bone, incisors and molars) were analyzed through micro- CT, and the morphological changes of maxillofacial soft tissues (nasal cartilage, lip mucosa and tongue) were analyzed through HE staining and toluidine blue staining. Results: CKIP-1 negatively regulated bone mass of cancellous bone of cranial and maxillofacial bones and dentin mineralization. Compared with the WT mice, the thickness of the parietal baffle layer increased by 93% in KO mice, while cortical bone showed no significant difference between the two groups. The nasal cancellous bone thickness increased by 160% in KO-mice, while cortical bone showed no significant difference between the two groups; the enamel thickness was normal, but the pulp cavity became smaller and the dentin thickness increased by 48%. Compared with the WT mice, the HE staining and toluidine blue staining analyses of the soft tissues revealed that the thickness of the alar cartilage plate of KO mice increased by 57%, and local ossification was found within the cartilage plate. The thickness of the keratinized layer of the labial mucosa increased by 170% in KO mice and the muscle fiber diameter of the lingual muscle increased by 45%. Conclusion CKIP-1 genes have different effects on the growth and development of various soft and hard tissues in the maxillofacial region of mice.

Background and Objectives: Systemic scleroderma (SSc) is a rare and serious connective tissue disease, an autoimmune disease, and a rare refractory disease. In this study, preventive effect of single systemic human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) transfusion on SSc was preliminarily explored. Methods: and Results: SSc mouse model was established by daily intradermal injection of Hypochlorite (HOCl). SSc mice were treated by single transfusion of UC-MSCs at 0.625×10 5 , 2.5×105 and 1×106 respectively. At the 42nd day of intradermal injection of HOCl, the symptoms showed up by skin and alveolar wall thickening, lymphocytic infiltration, increased collagen in skin/lung, and the increased proportion of CD3 ＋ CD4＋ CD25＋ FoxP3＋ cells (a Treg subset) in spleen. After UC-MSCs transfusion, the degree of skin thickening, alveolar wall thickening and lymphocyte infiltration were decreased, the collagen sedimentation in skin/lung was decreased, and the proportion of CD3＋ CD4＋ CD25＋FoxP3＋ cells was decreased. Conclusions UC-MSC can achieve a preventive effect in SSc mice by fibrosis attenuation and immunoregulation.
