Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of utilizing auxiliary steel plates in conjunction with autologous platelet-rich plasma(PRP)therapy for the treatment of bone non-union following intramedullary fixation of long shaft fractures in the limbs.Methods From January 2020 to September 2022,33 patients with non union after intramedullary fixation of long shaft fractures of the limbs admitted to the orthopedic trauma ward of the 960th Hospital of the PLA Jonit Logistics Support Force were selected as the research subjects,including 28 males and 5 females.The age range was 22 to 55 years,with an av-erage of(37.2±6.7)years.The patients were divided into the experimental group(n=15)and the control group(n=18)in order of admission.All patients retained intramedullary fixation,and the fracture end was fixed with reconstruction steel plates.According to the random number table method,15 cases in the experimental group were treated with autologous iliac bone transplantation combined with intraoperative and postoperative autologous PRP.The activated autologous PRP was fully fused with the patient′s autologous iliac bone during surgery and transplanted to the bone defect site.Ultrasound guidance was used to accurately locate the location.Autologous PRP was injected 10 mL/(person)occasion on the 14 th and 28 th day after surgery respectively.Eighteen cases in the control group received the treatment of autologous iliac bone transplantation at the bone de-fect site only.The clinical healing status of fractures between the two groups of patients were observed and compared.Results All 33 patients were followed up for a complete period of 9 to 30 months,with an average of(11.8±2.7)months.Compared with the control group,the clinical fracture healing time(months)was 5.25±1.18 vs 7.27±1.38(P＜0.05);The healing rate was 93.3%(14/15)vs 61.1%(11/18)(P＜0.05).Conclusion The combination of intraoperative and postoperative use of au-tologous PRP and auxiliary steel plates could promote the healing of bone non union after intramedullary fixation of long shaft fractures in the limbs,which is beneficial for early functional exercise of patients.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major public health problem worldwide. Occult hepatitis B virus infection (OBI) is a special type of HBV infection with extremely low viral load, posing a potential threat to transfusion safety and great challenges for clinical diagnosis. Currently, detecting HBV DNA in the liver and/or blood is an effective method for diagnosis of OBI. In HBV DNA detection, compared with fluorescence quantitative PCR (qPCR), digital PCR (dPCR) provides a more efficient detection platform and is a reliable method for quantifying extremely low levels of nucleic acids. It has shown great application prospects in OBI detection. This article mainly reviews the common detection method for OBI, as well as the principles and advantages of dPCR, and outlines the current application status of dPCR in OBI detection. In the hope that dPCR can fully leverage its advantages in OBI detection and better serve the detection of blood donors and clinical diagnosis in the future.

Hip fracture in the elderly is characterized by high incidence, high disability rate, and high mortality and has been recognized as a public health issue threatening their health. Surgery is the preferred choice for the treatment of elderly patients with hip fracture. However, lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT) has an extremely high incidence rate during the perioperative period, and may significantly increase the risk of patients′ death once it progresses to pulmonary embolism. In response to this issue, the clinical guidelines and expert consensuses all emphasize active application of comprehensive preventive measures, including basic prevention, physical prevention, and pharmacological prevention. In this prevention system, basic prevention is the basis of physical and pharmacological prevention. However,there is a lack of unified and definite recommendations for basic preventive measures in clinical practice. To this end, the Orthopedic Nursing Professional Committee of the Chinese Nursing Association and Nursing Department of the Orthopedic Branch of the China International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care organized relevant nursing experts to formulate Expert consensus on perioperative basic prevention for lower extremity deep venous thrombosis in elderly patients with hip fracture ( version 2024) . A total of 10 recommendations were proposed, aiming to standardize the basic preventive measures for lower extremity DVT in elderly patients with hip fractures during the perioperative period and promote their subsequent rehabilitation.

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 explore the safety and efficacy of"fishing-style"uterine suspension and vaginal purse-string suture encapsulation of the cervix in modified laparoscopic radical hysterectomy.Methods Clinical data of 82 patients with cervical cancer who underwent QM-C2 radical hysterectomy in our hospital from October 2021 to August 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.There were 36 cases in laparoscopic group(LRH)and 46 cases in abdominal group(ARH).In the laparoscopic group,the"fishing-style"uterine suspension,rather than a uterine manipulator,was used to manipulate the uterus,followed by vaginal purse-string suture encapsulation of the cervix before copotomy.The operation time,intraoperative bleeding,complications,positive rate of pathological margins,and recurrence rate were compared between the two groups.Results The LRH group showed less intraoperative bleeding and shorter postoperative hospital stay than the ARH group[40(30-130)ml vs.80(20-300)ml,Z=-4.057,P=0.000;8.5(5-24)d vs.10(5-26)d,Z=-2.975,P=0.003].There were no significant differences in operation time,complications,the number of lymph node dissected,cutting edge positivity rate,and recurrence rate(P>0.05).Conclusion The modified laparoscopic radical hysterectomy with"fishing-style"uterine suspension and vaginal purse-string suture encapsulation of the cervix is safe and feasible.

Objective:To explore the serological characteristics and genetic variant in a Chinese pedigree with Bw subtype.Methods:A 32-year-old female proband who had undergone prenatal examination on December 10, 2020 at the 960th Hospital of the PLA Joint Logistics Support Force and five members from her pedigree were selected as the study subjects. Peripheral blood samples were collected and subjected to ABO blood group phenotyping with serological methods and ABO blood group genotyping with fluorescent PCR. Genetic testing and haplotype analysis were carried out by direct sequencing of the entire coding region of the ABO gene in the proband and cloned sequencing of exons 1-7. Results:The blood type serology of the proband showed Bw, and the ABO blood type genotype determined by fluorescence PCR was B/O. The direct sequencing results showed that the proband had matched the ABO* O. 01. 01/ ABO* B. 01 genotype and carried a c. 1A>G variant. Cloned sequencing has confirmed the c. 1A>G variant to have occurred in the ABO* B. 01 allele. Family analysis revealed that the mother of the proband had an O blood type, her husband had a B phenotype, and the her three children had a normal B blood type. DNA sequencing showed that the two sons of the proband had a genotype of ABO* B. 01 and c. 1A>G/ ABO* B. 01. The daughter of the proband was ABO* O. 01. 01/ ABO* B. 01, whilst her mother was ABO* O. 01. 01/ ABO * O. 01. 02. The novel c. 1A>G variant sequence has been registered with the database with a number of MZ076785 1. Conclusion:The novel c. 1A>G variant of exon 1 of α- 1, 3 galactose aminotransferase gene probably underlay the reduced expression of B antigen in this pedigree.

【Objective】 To study the effects of different storage temperature and different storage time on the activity of key growth factors in platelet-rich plasma(PRP), and to provide a theoretical basis for maximize the role of PRP in clinical treatment. 【Methods】 PRP was collected by blood cell isolation and apheresis, stored at 22℃ and -80℃, respectively. VEGF, TGF-β and PDGF were detected by ELISA. The content of growth factors in PRP was detected when stored at 22℃for 1, 3 and 5 days, and the growth factors content of PRP stored at 22℃ for 3 days was detected after thrombin activation for 0.5, 1 and 1.5 hours. The content of growth factor in frozen PRP (stored at -80℃ for 30 days after initial 3-days storage at 22℃ ) and fresh PRP (stored at 22℃ for 3 days) was compared. The growth factor content in PRP frozen at - 80℃ for 30, 60 and 180 days, and the growth factor content in PRP frozen at -80℃ for 180 days after repeated freeze-thaw for 1, 2, 3, 5 and 10 times were detected. 【Results】 The growth factor content of apheresis PRP was significantly higher than that of platelet-poor plasma. No statistical difference was noticed in VEGF, TGF-β and PDGF content in PRP at 1, 3 and 5 days stored at 22℃; no statistical difference was noticed in VEGF, TGF-β and PDGF content in PRP stored at 22℃ for 3 days after thrombin activation for 0.5, 1 and 1.5 hours. There was no statistically significant difference in growth factor content between PRP stored at 22℃ for 3 days versus frozen at -80℃ for 30 days after initial 3-days storage at 22℃. No statistical difference was found in VEGF, TGF-β and PDGF contents in frozen PRP repeatedly frozen and thawed for 1 to 10 times. 【Conclusion】 Apheresis PRP can release a large amount of growth factors after activation. Fresh PRP stored at 22℃ for 5 days or frozen at -80℃ for 180 days has no impact on the content of growth factors, and frozen PRP at -80℃ can achieve long-term, effective and safe preservation, which is conducive to multiple use of PRP in treatment.

Hip fracture is considered as the most severe osteoporotic fracture characterized by high disability and mortality in the elderly. Improved surgical techniques and multidisciplinary team play an active role in alleviating prognosis, which places higher demands on perioperative nursing. Dysfunction, complications, and secondary impact of anaesthesia and surgery add more difficulties to clinical nursing. Besides, there still lack clinical practices in perioperative nursing for elderly patients with hip fracture in China. In this context, led by the Orthopedic Nursing Committee of Chinese Nursing Association, the Expert consensus on clinical practice in perioperative nursing for elderly patients with hip fracture ( version 2023) is developed based on the evidence-based medicine. This consensus provides 11 recommendations on elderly patients with hip fracture from aspects of perioperative health education, condition monitoring and inspection, complication risk assessment and prevention, and rehabilitation, in order to provide guiding advices for clinical practice, improve the quality of nursing and ameliorate the prognosis of elderly patients with hip fracture.
