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 evaluate the safety and efficiency of robotic visualization system(RVS)-assisted microsurgical re-construction of the reproductive tract in male rats and the satisfaction of the surgeons.Methods:We randomly divided 8 adult male SD rats into an experimental and a control group,the former treated by RVS-assisted microsurgical vasoepididymostomy(VE)or vaso-vasostomy(VV),and the latter by VE or VV under the standard operating microscope(SOM).We compared the operation time,me-chanical patency and anastomosis leakage immediately after surgery,and the surgeons'satisfaction between the two groups.Results:No statistically significant difference was observed the operation time between the experimental and the control groups,and no anasto-mosis leakage occurred after VV in either group.The rate of mechanical patency immediately after surgery was 100％in both groups,and that of anastomosis leakage after VE was 16.7％in the experimental group and 14.3％in the control.Compared with the control group,the experimental group achieved dramatically higher scores on visual comfort(3.00±0.76 vs 4.00±0.53,P＜0.05),neck/back comfort(2.75±1.16 vs 4.38±1.06,P＜0.01)and man-machine interaction(3.88±1.55 va 4.88±0.35,P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the scores on image definition and operating room suitability between the two groups.Conclusion:RVS can be used in microsurgical reconstruction of the reproductive tract in male rats and,with its advantages over SOM in ergonomic design and image definition,has a potential application value in male reproductive system micosurgery.

Objective To establish a high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)aging characteristic chromatogram of Guangdong Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium.Methods HPLC-diode array detector(DAD)was used to analyze the composition differences between different years of Guangdong Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium,and the relative peak area of each differential chromatographic peak was determined.The aging grade was classified by cluster analysis,and evaluated by the similarity evaluation system for chromatographic fingerprint of TCM(2012A edition).Results The different years of Guangdong Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium was clustered into two different aging grades of classⅠ and class Ⅱ.The similarity of class Ⅰ(low aging grade)Guangdong Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium was 0.708-0.957,and the similarity of class Ⅱ(high aging grade)Guangdong Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium was 0.734-0.976,and the similarity between the two was lower than 0.6.There were 9 different chromatographic peaks in the established characteristic chromatogram.The control characteristic spectrum T2 of typeⅡ Guangdong Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium can be regarded as its aging characteristic spectrum,among which peaks 1-4 and 9 are aging characteristic peaks.Conclusion The established aging characteristic chromatogram of Guangdong Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium is simple in operation,with good repeatability and reliability,and can be used for quality evaluation of different years of Guangdong Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium.

Objective:To investigate the surgical effect of various circulatory pathways on replantation of severed distal segments of digits.Methods:From June 2017 to June 2023, a total of 137 patients (162 digits) who received digit replantation surgery in the Department of Trauma Orthopaedics and Microsurgery of Guilin People's Hospital were retrospectively studied. The patients were 82 males (97 digits) and 55 females (65 digits) aged 11.0 months to 51.0 years old, with 31.7 years old in average. The injured digits were 36 thumbs, 43 index fingers, 32 middle fingers, 28 ring fingers and 23 little fingers. Causes of injury: 55 digits were of electric saw, 68 of sharp object cut, 26 of twisting crush and 13 of degloving injury. According to the circulatory pathways, 66 patients (88 digits) were assigned to a physiological replantation group (PRG), 50 patients (53 digits) to an arterio-venolisation group (AVG) and 21 patients (21 digits) to a nail bed bloodletting group (NBG). Functional recovery was evaluated according to the Evaluation Standard of Severed Finger Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association. Analysis of variance or chi-square test was employed to analyse the age, gender, time from injury to surgery, surgery time, incidence of vascular compromise of the replanted digit, survival rate, score of functional recovery of the affected digit at 6 months after surgery, and incidence of postoperative complications in each group. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:All patients were included in the 6-10 months of postoperative follow-up, with an average of 7.2 months. Regarding the score of functional recovery of affected digit according to the Evaluation Standard of Severed Finger Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association, PRG (86.3 points±7.9 points) was higher than that of NBG (78.3 points±11.2 points) and AVG (70.7 points±8.6 points), with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05 for both). In terms of the incidence of vascular compromise, PRG (3 digits for 3.4%) was lower than that of NBG (1 digit for 4.8%) and AVG (6 digits for 11.3%), with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05 for both). Of the survival rate, PRG (81 digits for 92.0%) was superior to that of NBG (18 digits for 85.7%) and AVG (42 digits 79.2%), with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05 for both). While of the incidence of postoperative complications, PRG (12.6%) was lower than that of AVG (17.1%) and NBG (21.2%), with statistically significant differences ( P<0.05 for both). Conclusion:For a severed distal segment of digit, the physiological replantation is preferred. For the digit with undetectable return veins, effective replantation can be achieved by the arterio-venolisation or nail bed exsanguination.

Objective To investigate the neuroprotective effect and mechanism of cerebrotein hydrolysate- (CH-) on 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) induced Parkinson's disease (PD) mice. Methods Totally 36 healthy male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into control group(Ctrl), model group(MPTP) and CH- group. MPTP was used to induce PD model in mice, and CH- was injected intraperitoneally for intervention. The behavioral function of mice was detected by pole test, the expression of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) was detected by immunohistochemistry, and the composition and diversity of intestinal microflora were detected by gene sequencing and bioinformatics analysis. Results Compared with the control group, MPTP induced behavioral deficits in PD mice after modeling (P<0.05), after CH- treatment, the behavioral defects of PD mice were improved compared with MPTP group (P<0.05). Immunohistochemical result showed that MPTP decreased the expression of the rate-limiting enzyme TH in dopamine synthesis, and increased the expression of TH after CH- treatment. The result of microbial diversity showed that the intestinal microflora diversity of mice decreased after MPTP treatment (P<0.05). At the “phylum” level, the number of Epsilonbacteraeota and Deferribacteres decreased sharply, while the number of Verrucomicrobia increased significantly. At the level of “family”, the number of Desulfovibrionaceae, Lachnospiraceae, Helicobacteraceae and Rikenellaceae decreased, while the number of Akkermansiaceae and Erysipelotrichaceae increased, suggesting that the original homeostasis of intestinal microflora was destroyed. After CH- treatment, the number of intestinal microflora tended to be normal, which reduced the abundance of pathogenic microbiota and increased the relative abundance of beneficial bacteria. Conclusion CH- can improve the composition of intestinal microflora and the behavioral function of PD mice by decreasing the abundance of pathogenic microbiota and increasing the relative abundance of beneficial bacteria.

Krüppel-like transcription factor 2 (KLF2) plays a key regulatory role in endothelial inflammation, thrombosis, angiogenesis and macrophage inflammation and polarization, and up-regulation of KLF2 expression has the potential to prevent and treatment atherosclerosis. In this study, trichostatin C (TSC) was obtained from the secondary metabolites of rice fermentation of Streptomyces sp. CPCC 203909 as a KLF2 up-regulator by using a high throughput screening model based on a KLF2 promoter luciferase reporter assay. TSC significantly inhibited the adhesion of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNFα) induced monocytes (THP-1) to human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Western blot results showed that TSC decreased TNFα induced the protein expression increase of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), and thereby inhibited endothelial inflammation. The results of histone deacetylase (HDAC) overexpression and molecular docking experiments showed that TSC upregulated the expression of KLF2 by inhibiting subtypes of HDAC 4/5/7. In conclusion, this study suggests that TSC up-regulates the expression of KLF2 through inhibiting HDAC 4/5/7 and thus inhibits TNFα induced endothelial inflammation, and it has the potential to prevent and treat atherosclerosis.

Acetylcholine (ACh) is an important neuromodulator in various cognitive functions. However, it is unclear how ACh influences neural circuit dynamics by altering cellular properties. Here, we investigated how ACh influences reverberatory activity in cultured neuronal networks. We found that ACh suppressed the occurrence of evoked reverberation at low to moderate doses, but to a much lesser extent at high doses. Moreover, high doses of ACh caused a longer duration of evoked reverberation, and a higher occurrence of spontaneous activity. With whole-cell recording from single neurons, we found that ACh inhibited excitatory postsynaptic currents (EPSCs) while elevating neuronal firing in a dose-dependent manner. Furthermore, all ACh-induced cellular and network changes were blocked by muscarinic, but not nicotinic receptor antagonists. With computational modeling, we found that simulated changes in EPSCs and the excitability of single cells mimicking the effects of ACh indeed modulated the evoked network reverberation similar to experimental observations. Thus, ACh modulates network dynamics in a biphasic fashion, probably by inhibiting excitatory synaptic transmission and facilitating neuronal excitability through muscarinic signaling pathways.

To date, there is little information about the demography of vasectomy reversal (VR) patients or the factors currently influencing VR effectiveness in China, especially after the universal two-child policy was released in 2015. In this research, demographic data and perioperative medical records of VR patients were extracted from seven major hospitals in different provinces or municipalities of China. Meanwhile, a telephone survey of the patients was conducted to collect follow-up information. Eventually, 448 VR cases from the past 13 years were included. The results were analyzed by stratified comparison to investigate factors that can influence postoperative vas deferens patency and pregnancy rate. Appropriately statistical methods were used, and all of the protocols were approved by the Ethics Committees of the institutes in this research. The results showed that the annual operation volume of VR quadrupled after the two-child policy was implemented. Nonmicrosurgery and a long duration of vasectomy were significantly associated with a lower patency rate. A follow-up survey showed that the general postoperative pregnancy rate was 27.2%. For female partners over the age of 35 years, the postoperative pregnancy rate showed a more severe decline, but only 35.5% of them had been given a fertility examination before their husbands' VR surgery. Our work revealed that more patients in China have been demanding VR in recent years. High-quality microsurgery and a short duration of vasectomy are crucial for restoring patency by VR. Clinical andrologists should perform a preoperative fertility evaluation of the patients' female partners.

ObjectiveTo observe the spatial-temporal distribution of mouse leptomeningeal lymphatic endothelial cells and their effects on behavior. MethodsImmunofluorescence was used to detect the number of Lyve-1⁺and CD68⁺ cells in the dorsal， temporal， ventral， and lateral paraventricular leptomeningeal of 1-week， 2-week， 4-week， 10-week， 15-week， and 15-month-old wild-type C57BL mice and 15-week-old APP/PS1 transgenic mice. Two-week-old C57BL mice were randomly grouped as follows： PBS-injected group， anti-Lyve-1-injected group and SAR131675-injected group， which were injected with corresponding reagents into lateral ventricle. Two weeks after injection （i.e.， 4 weeks old）， the three groups of mice were subjected to the open field experiment， the three-chamber social interaction experiment， and the novel object recognition experiment. Then their ratio of leptomeningeal lymphatic cells were detected by immunofluorescence. ResultsThere was no statistical difference in the distribution of leptomeningeal lymphatic endothelial cells in different regions （F=0.8700， P=0. 4668， df=3）. The percentage of Lyve-1⁺ cells in the leptomeninges of mice decreased with ages （F=17.30， P<0.0001， df=5）. There was no statistical difference in the proportion of Lyve-1⁺ and CD68⁺ cells in the dorsal leptomeninges of mice of different ages （F=0.2686， P=0.9244， df=5）. Proportion of Lyve-1⁺ cells in the leptomeninges of 15-week-old APP/PS1 transgenic mice was lower than that of wild-type C57BL/6 mice （t=6.381，P=0.0078）. The ratio of Lyve-1⁺ cells was lower in the leptomeningeal of anti-Lyve-1-injected mice than that in the control group （M_PBS=0.4513， M_anti-Lyve-1=0.2692， q=8.726， P<0.0001）. The ratio of Lyve-1⁺ cells in the leptomeningeal of SAR131675-injected mice was lower than that in the control group （M_SAR131675=0.3230， q=5.588， P=0.0006）. In the open field tests， SAR131675-injected mice showed reduced exploratory locomotion， but increased willingness to explore the central area. The anti-Lyve-1-injected mice showed an increased willingness to explore the central area. In the social interaction tests， the anti-Lyve-1-injected mice showed no reduction in social behavior or social preference. The SAR131675-injected mice showed reduced social behavior in terms of frequency of interaction but no social preference， suggesting that the SAR131675-injected mice had a social interaction decrease. In the novel object recognition tests， the anti-Lyve-1-injected mice showed no change in frequency， time and distance， indicating that the anti-Lyve-1-injected mice showed no change in short-term memory. The SAR131675-injected mice showed a decrease in short-term memory. ConclusionLeptomeningeal lymphatic endothelial cells play an important role in the early development of mice， which can be related to their phagocytosis of macromolecular substances.
