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 analyze the MRI features of medulloblastoma (MB) in children, and screen out the key signs that can predict the risk of MB before surgery.Methods:Clinical and radiological data of 62 children with MB confirmed by pathology in Shenzhen Children′s Hospital from December 2012 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the diagnosis and treatment guidelines for children with MB (2021 edition), the patients were divided into standard risk group (43 cases) and high risk group (19 cases). MRI features of MB were observed and recorded, including tumor site, location of tumor center, tumor morphology, signal intensity of T 1WI, T 2WI and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI), enhancement pattern, cystic lesion size, location and number, peritumoral edema and hydrocephalus, and the maximum diameter of tumor was measured. The χ 2 test or Fisher exact probability method was used to compare the differences in age, gender and MRI signs between the two groups. The t test of two independent samples was used to compare the differences in the maximum diameter of tumors between the two groups. The indicators with statistically significant differences were included in binary logistic regression analysis to obtain independent influencing factors associated with the risk groups. The receiver operation characteristic curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy. Results:There were significant differences in age ( P=0.026), enhancement pattern ( P=0.018), cystic lesion size ( P=0.005), location ( P=0.011) and number ( P=0.003) between standard risk group and high risk group. There were no significant differences in gender, tumor site, location of tumor center, tumor morphology, signal intensity of T 1WI, T 2WI and DWI, peritumoral edema, hydrocephalus and maximum diameter of tumor between the two groups ( P>0.05). Binary logistic regression results showed the age (OR=0.207, 95%CI 0.040-0.983, P=0.042) and the number of cystic lesions (OR=0.215, 95%CI 0.073-0.630, P=0.005) were the protective factors for MB in high risk group, the enhancement pattern Ⅲ (OR=5.226, 95%CI 1.516-52.920, P=0.048) was the dangerous factor for MB in high risk group. The area under the curve of the combined diagnosis of high risk MB was 0.845 (95%CI 0.741-0.949). Conclusions:The age and MRI signs the pattern of tumor enhancement Ⅲ and the number of cystic lesion can be used to predict the risk grouping of MB preoperatively. When the child is younger and MB enhancement pattern is mainly peripheral enhancement without obvious cystic change, it may indicate high risk MB.

Observation indicators: (1) follow-up; (2) risk factors for anastomotic leakage after laparoscopic LAR; (3) establishment of risk assessment scoring model for anastomotic leakage after laparoscopic LAR. Follow-up was conducted by outpatient examination or telephone interview. Patients were followed up at 1 week after discharge or 1 month after the operation to detect the anastomotic leakage. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were represented as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test. Univariate analysis was conducted using the chi-square test and multivariate analysis was conducted usong the Logistic regression model. The area under curve of receiver operating characteristic curve was used to estimate the efficiency of detecton methods. The maximum value of the Youden index was defined as the best cut-off value. Results:(1) Follow-up: 539 patients were followed up at postoperative 1 week and 1 month. During the follow-up, 79 patient had anastomotic leakage, with an incidence of 14.66%(79/539). Of the 79 patients, 39 cases were cured after conservative treatment, 40 cases were cured after reoperation (ileostomy or colostomy). (2) Risk factors for anastomotic leakage after laparoscopic LAR. Results of univariate analysis showed that sex, age, body mass index, smoking and/or drinking, tumor diameter, diabetes mellitus, hemoglobin, albumin, grade of American Society of Anesthesio-logists (ASA), neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy, distance from anastomotic level to dentate line, the number of pelvic stapler, reinforced anastomosis, volume of intraoperative blood loss, placement of decompression tube, preservation of left colic artery, operation time and professional doctors were related factors for anastomotic leakage after laparoscopic LAR ( χ2=14.060, 4.387, 5.039, 4.094, 17.488, 33.485, 25.066, 28.959, 34.973, 34.207, 22.076, 13.208, 16.440, 17.708, 17.260, 4.573, 5.919, 5.389, P<0.05).

Alkali-salinity exerts severe osmotic, ionic, and high-pH stresses to plants. To under-stand the alkali-salinity responsive mechanisms underlying photosynthetic modulation and reactive oxygen species (ROS) homeostasis, physiological and diverse quantitative proteomics analyses of alkaligrass (Puccinellia tenuiflora) under Na2CO3 stress were conducted. In addition, Western blot,real-time PCR, and transgenic techniques were applied to validate the proteomic results and test the functions of the Na2CO3-responsive proteins. A total of 104 and 102 Na2CO3-responsive proteins were identified in leaves and chloroplasts, respectively. In addition, 84 Na2CO3-responsive phospho-proteins were identified, including 56 new phosphorylation sites in 56 phosphoproteins from chloro-plasts, which are crucial for the regulation of photosynthesis, ion transport, signal transduction, and energy homeostasis. A full-length PtFBA encoding an alkaligrass chloroplastic fructose-bisphosphate aldolase (FBA) was overexpressed in wild-type cells of cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. Strain PCC 6803, leading to enhanced Na2CO3 tolerance. All these results indicate that thermal dissipation, state transition, cyclic electron transport, photorespiration, repair of pho-tosystem (PS) Ⅱ, PSI activity, and ROS homeostasis were altered in response to Na2CO3 stress, which help to improve our understanding of the Na2CO3-responsive mechanisms in halophytes.

Objective To study the biological characteristics of, antibiotic resistance in and ger-micidal efficacy at different temperatures against Vibrio parahaemolyticus ( V. parahaemolyticus) strains isola-ted from different sources in order to provide reference for clinical treatment and prevention. Methods Stool samples from patients with diarrhea and small seafood product specimens from markets were collected and an-alyzed with biochemical identification method, serotyping analysis, drug susceptibility test and germicidal ef-ficacy test at different temperatures. Results There were 107 V. parahaemolyticus strains isolated from 1166 stool samples of patients with foodborne diarrhea with a positive rate of 9. 18% and 42 from 72 seafood product samples with a positive rate of 58. 30%. V. parahaemolyticus strains isolated from the foodborne diar-rhea cases were divided into eight serogroups and among them, O3 and O4 were the predominant serogroups, accounting for 49. 53% and 34. 58%, respectively. Most of the O antigens in small seafood products be-longed to serogroups of O4, O1 and O3, and four strains of O3 : K6 were isolated. Results of the drug sus-ceptibility test showed that both of the clinical isolates and marine product isolates were highly resistant to ampicillin and the drug resistance rates were 94. 39% and 88. 10%, respectively. Antibiotic-sensitive strains to monocyclicβ-lactams, aminoglycosides, quinolones, carbapenems, tetracyclines and sulfonamides accounted for over 90. 00% or even nearly 100. 00%. There were 17 (15. 89%) clinical strains and three (7. 14%) marine product isolates resistant to three or more kinds of antibiotics. At 80℃, the bactericidal rate for marine product isolates was 85. 71% in 60 s and reached 100. 00% in 90 s. At 90℃ and 100℃, these isolates could be completely killed in 40 s and 30 s. It took 120 s, 90 s and 50 s to kill clinical isolates at 80℃, 90℃ and 100℃, respectively. Conclusions This study systematically analyzed and compared the drug-resistant phenotypes of and the bactericidal efficacy at different temperatures on V. parahaemolyticus strains isolated from clinical samples and marine products. It would provide reference for preventing and con-trolling the spread of V. parahaemolyticus and hospital infection and for studying treatment strategies.

Objective: To compare the pharmacokinetics and bioavailability of pirfenidone in the fasted and fed states in healthy volunteers. Methods: An open-label, randomized crossover study was conducted in 12 healthy subjects. Food effects were examined by comparing pharmacokinetic data of pirfenidone after administration of a single oral 400 mg dose under fasted or fed conditions. Plas-ma pirfenidone concentration was determined by an HPLC method and its pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated with DAS v2. 0 software. Results: Under fasted and fed conditions, the concentration-time profiles of pirfenidone were fitted a one-compartment model and the pharmacokinetic parameters were as follows: t1/2were (2. 16 ± 0. 47) and (2. 05 ± 0. 42) h;tmaxwere(0. 69 ± 0. 16)and (1. 46 ± 0. 40)h;Cmaxwere (12. 95 ± 1. 79) and (9. 16 ± 2. 87) mg·L-1;AUC0-12were (44. 97 ± 15. 06) and (36. 19 ± 14. 44) mg·h·L-1;AUC0-∞were (46. 55 ± 16. 79) and (37. 41 ± 15. 43) mg·h·L-1, respectively. When compared with that of the fasted group, tmaxwas significantly increased (P<0. 001) while Cmaxand AUC were remarkedly decreased in the fed group (P<0. 001 and P<0. 01, respectively). Conclusion: Concomitant food intake significantly influences the pharmacokinetics and bioavail-ability of pirfenidone as indicated by reducing its extent and rate of absorption, which is associated with better tolerability.
