To guide transfusion practice in critically ill children who often need plasma and platelet transfusions, the Transfusion and Anemia Expertise Initiative-Control/Avoidance of Bleeding (TAXI-CAB) developed Recommendations and Expert Consensus for Plasma and Platelet Transfusion Practice in Critically Ill Children. This guideline addresses 53 recommendations related to plasma and platelet transfusion in critically ill children with 8 kinds of diseases, laboratory testing, selection/treatment of plasma and platelet components, and research priorities. This paper introduces the specific methods and results of the recommendation formation of the guideline.

Objective To analyze the efficacy of bevacizumab combined with paclitaxel+carboplatin in the treatment of recurrent/metastatic cervical cancer,and to explore the influence on survival prognosis of patients.Methods Patients with recurrent/metastatic cervical cancer were divided into control group and treatment group according to different treatment methods.The control group received paclitaxel combined with carboplatin chemotherapy regimen(intravenous infusion of 170 mg·m-2 paclitaxel and carboplatin(AUC=5 mg·mL-1·min)for 3 weeks as a course of chemotherapy),and the treatment group was given bevacizumab on the basis of control group,intravenous infusion of 15 mg·kg-1 bevacizumab,once every 3 weeks.Both groups were treated for 3 cycles of treatment by taking 3 weeks as 1 treatment cycle.The clinical efficacy,levels of serum tumor markers,quality of life,survival prognosis and occurrence of drug-related adverse reactions during treatment were compared between the two groups.Results There were 41 cases in treatment group and 48 cases in control group.After treatment,the overall response rate(ORR)of treatment group and control group were 31.71％(13 cases/41 cases)and 14.58％(7 cases/48 cases),with no statistical significance(P＞0.05).After treatment,the disease control rate(DCR)in control group and treatment group were 62.50％(30 cases/48 cases)and 82.93％(34 cases/41 cases);the squamous cell carcinoma antigen(SCCA)levels were(3.58±0.73)and(2.52±0.57)ng·mL-1;carbohydrate antigen 19-9(CA19-9)levels were(23.60±4.29)and(19.19±3.72)U·mL-1;carbohydrate antigen 15-3(CA15-3)levels were(27.13±5.36)and(22.86±3.94)U·mL-1;carbohydrate antigen 125(CA125)levels were(39.24±6.88)and(26.47±5.09)U·mL-1;the overall improvement rates of quality of life were 41.67％(20 cases/48 cases)and 73.17％(30 cases/41 cases),the progression-free survival times were 8.67 months(95％CI:7.82-9.53)and 10.25 months(95％CI:9.68-10.81),the total survival times were 9.96 months(95％CI:9.13-10.79)and 11.47 months(95％CI:11.00-11.93),all with significant difference(all P＜0.05).There were no statistically significant differences in the incidence of nausea and vomiting,leukopenia,thrombocytopenia and liver-kidney function impairment between both groups(all P＞0.05).Conclusion Bevacizumab combined with chemotherapy has significant efficacy in the treatment of recurrent/metastatic cervical cancer,and it can reduce the levels of serum tumor markers,enhance the quality of life,and improve the survival prognosis,and it has good safety.

Children and adults differ significantly in physiology,biochemistry and immune function,which leads to sig-nificant differences in blood transfusion strategies between children and adults.To guide the clinical transfusion practice of pediatric patients and improve the prognosis of children,the National Health Commission organized the formulation and re-lease of the health industry standard Guideline for Pediatric Transfusion(WS/T 795-2022).This paper will briefly introduce some concepts that help understand of the Standard and the preparation process of the Standard,and explain and interpret the preparation of the"scope","general provisions"and"factors to consider"of the Standard,hoping to contribute to the understanding and implementation of the Standard.

Endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase (ENGase) is widely distributed in various organisms. The first reported ENGase activity was detected in Diplococcus pneumoniae in 1971. The protein (Endo D) was purified and its peptide sequence was determined in 1974. Three ENGases (Endo F1-F3) were discovered in Flavobacterium meningosepticum from 1982 to 1993. After that, the activity was detected from different species of bacteria, yeast, fungal, plant, mice, human, etc. Multiple ENGases were detected in some species, such as Arabidopsis thaliana and Trichoderma atroviride. The first preliminary crystallographic analysis of ENGase was conducted in 1994. But to date, only a few ENGases structures have been obtained, and the structure of human ENGase is still missing. The currently identified ENGases were distributed in the GH18 or GH85 families in Carbohydrate-Active enZyme (CAZy) database. GH18 ENGase only has hydrolytic activity, but GH85 ENGase has both hydrolytic and transglycosylation activity. Although ENGases of the two families have similar (β/α)8-TIM barrel structures, the active sites are slightly different. ENGase is an effective tool for glycan detection andglycan editing. Biochemically, ENGase can specifically hydrolyze β‑1,4 glycosidic bond between the twoN-acetylglucosamines (GlcNAc) on core pentasaccharide presented on glycopeptides and/or glycoproteins. Different ENGases may have different substrate specificity. The hydrolysis products are oligosaccharide chains and a GlcNAc or glycopeptides or glycoproteins with a GlcNAc. Conditionally, it can use the two products to produce a new glycopeptides or glycoprotein. Although ENGase is a common presentation in cell, its biological function remains unclear. Accumulated evidences demonstrated that ENGase is a none essential gene for living and a key regulator for differentiation. No ENGase gene was detected in the genomes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and three other yeast species. Its expression was extremely low in lung. As glycoproteins are not produced by prokaryotic cells, a role for nutrition and/or microbial-host interaction was predicted for bacterium produced enzymes. In the embryonic lethality phenotype of the Ngly1-deficient mice can be partially rescued by Engase knockout, suggesting down regulation of Engase might be a solution for stress induced adaptation. Potential impacts of ENGase regulation on health and disease were presented. Rabeprazole, a drug used for stomach pain as a proton inhibitor, was identified as an inhibitor for ENGase. ENGases have been applied in vitro to produce antibodies with a designated glycan. The two step reactions were achieved by a pair of ENGase dominated for hydrolysis of substrate glycoprotein and synthesis of new glycoprotein with a free glycan of designed structure, respectively. In addition, ENGase was also been used in cell surface glycan editing. New application scenarios and new detection methods for glycobiological engineering are quickly opened up by the two functions of ENGase, especially in antibody remodeling and antibody drug conjugates. The discovery, distribution, structure property, enzymatic characteristics and recent researches in topical model organisms of ENGase were reviewed in this paper. Possible biological functions and mechanisms of ENGase, including differentiation, digestion of glycoproteins for nutrition and stress responding were hypothesised. In addition, the role of ENGase in glycan editing and synthetic biology was discussed. We hope this paper may provide insights for ENGase research and lay a solid foundation for applied and translational glycomics.

Protein as the allergens could lead to allergy. In addition, a widespread class of allergens were known as glycans of N-glycoprotein. N-glycoprotein contained oligosaccharide linked by covalent bonds with protein. Recently,studies implicated that allergy was associated with glycans of heterologous N-glycoprotein found in food, inhalants, insect toxins, etc. The N-glycan structure of N-glycoprotein allergen has exerted an influence on the binding between allergens and IgE, while the recognition and presentation of allergens by antigen-presenting cells (APCs) were also affected. Some researches showed thatN-glycan structure of allergen was remodeled by N-glycosidase, such as cFase I, gpcXylase, as binding of allergen and IgE partly decreased. Thus, allergic problems caused by N-glycoproteins could potentially be solved by modifying or altering the structure ofN-glycoprotein allergens, addressing the root of the issue. Mechanism of N-glycans associated allergy could also be elaborated through glycosylation enzymes, alterations of host glycosylation. This article hopes to provide a separate insight for glycoimmunology perspective, and an alternative strategy for clinical prevention or therapy of allergic diseases.

In recent years,the development of acupuncture and moxibustion(shortened as acup-moxibustion)has flourished.With the verification of clinical efficacy of acup-moxibustion,its basic research has gradually drawn the attention of the practitioners accordingly.But how to scientifically perform the basic research of acup-moxibustion and to serve the clinic effectively has become a major problem for the contemporary Chinese medicine practitioners.By analyzing the characteristics of acup-moxibustion-related research projects funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China,this paper outlined the current status of domestic research of acup-moxibustion,and proposed four suggestions after analyzing the problems and weaknesses of acup-moxibustion basic research in China:①the clinical evidence-based system in the current acup-moxibustion should be further constructed and the basic research should be focused on the area of advantages;② the key problems of acup-moxibustion basic research should be clarified,and the proportion of original researches should be increased;③ the integration of production,teaching and research of acup-moxibustion should be enhanced to adapt to the era of big science;④ the funding system and its polity and structure needed to be reformed.This study will help to increase the discipline ranking of acup-moxibustion,enhance its high-quality development,and promote its internationalization.

Objective To investigate the clinical features and prognosis of acute pancreatitis(AP)complicated with metabolic syndrome(MS).Methods 139 AP patients were retrospectively selected and divided into MS group(76 cases)and non-MS group(63 cases),general data of the two groups were collected and analyzed;conservative treatment was given to 2 groups of patients,and the general conditions,laboratory indicators,comorbidities,and related indicators of disease severity of the two groups were compared and analyzed,and the influencing factors of poor prognosis in patients(AP combined with MS)were analyzed.Results Compared with non-MS group,HDL,Ca2+in MS group decreased significantly,Body weight、Body Mass Index(BMI)、diabetes mellitus、hypertension(systolic/diastolic blood pressure)、hyperlipidemia、white blood cell count、CRP、PCT、IL-6、FPG、UA、TC、TG、TyG、TYG-BMI and non-traditional lipid parameters TC/HDL-C、TG/HDL-C、LDL-C/HDL-C and non-HDL-C were significantly increased.There were no significant differences in age、sex、length of stay、BUN、CREA、LDL-C、ALT and AST between the two groups(P＞0.05);BMI,white blood cell count,CRP,IL-6,FPG,UA,TC,TG,TyG,TYG-BMI,TC/HDL-C,TG/HDL-C,LDL-C/HDL-C,and non-HDL-C were independent risk factors for poor prognosis in AP patients with MS,and HDL-C was a potential protective factor for prognosis in AP patients with MS,the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion With the change of modern lifestyle,there are more and more MS patients,and the incidence of MS patients with AP is gradually increasing.TyG,TYG-BMI and non-traditional lipid parameters are novel,convenient and practical markers for clinical evaluation,which have a high diagnostic and predictive value for AP with MS metabolic abnormalities,and provides clinical basis for management and intervention.

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.
