[Objective] To explore the strategy of blood management in patients with massive transfusion in the frigid plateau region. [Methods] The treatment process of a patient with liver rupture in the frigid plateau region was analyzed, and the blood management strategy of the frigid plateau region was discussed in combination with the difficulties of blood transfusion and literature review. [Results] The preoperative complete blood count (CBC) test results of the patient were as follows: RBC 3.14×10¹²/L, Hb 10⁶ g/L, HCT 30.40%, PLT 115.00×10⁹/L; coagulation function: PT 18.9 s, FiB 1.31 g/L, DD > 6 μg/mL, FDP 25.86 μg/mL; ultrasound examination and imaging manifestations suggested liver contusion and laceration / intraparenchymal hematoma, splenic contusion and laceration, and massive blood accumulation in the abdominal cavity; it was estimated that the patient's blood loss was ≥ 2 000 mL, and massive blood transfusion was required during the operation; red blood cell components were timely transfused during the operation, and the blood component transfusion was guided according to the patient's CBC and coagulation function test results, providing strong support and guarantee for the successful treatment of the patient. The patient recovered well after the operation, and the CBC test results were as follows: RBC 4.32×10¹²/L, Hb 144 g/L, HCT 39.50%, PLT 329.00×10⁹/L; coagulation function: APTT 29.3 s, PT 12.1 s, FiB 2.728 g/L, DD>6 μg/mL, FDP 25.86 μg/mL. The patient was discharged after 20 days, and regular follow-up reexamination showed no abnormal results. [Conclusion] Individualized blood management strategy should comprehensively consider the patient’s clinical symptoms, the degree of hemoglobin decline, dynamic coagulation test results and existing treatment conditions. Efficient and reasonable patient blood management strategies can effectively improve the clinical outcomes of massive transfusion patients in the frigid plateau region.

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) have the ability to sow tumors and can be found in the peripheral blood of patients with precancerous lesions and healthy people. However, CTCs are not currently screened in the donors blood. A large number of allogeneic blood transfusions occurred worldwide each year, and allogeneic blood transfusions expose recipients to the risk of transmission and affect tumors associated with donor CTCs. Although leukocyte filtration can not completely remove tumor cells in the blood, it can effectively reduce the number of white blood cells in the blood and reduce their proliferation ability. Blood irradiation can effectively destroy the DNA of CTCs in the blood, and inhibit the occurrence and metastasis of tumors caused by the infusion of allogeneic blood containing CTCs. Therefore, we should pay attention to the potential risk of CTCs on clinical transfusion, and strengthen the preclinical treatment of blood to avoid donor-related tumor infection in blood recipients due to clinical transfusion.

Objective:To explore the early coagulation function changes of penetrating intestinal firearm injury of pig in high-altitude environments.Methods:Twenty healthy long white piglets were selected and divided into the plain group and the high-altitude group using the random number table method, with 10 pigs in each group. Pigs in the plain group were placed in a plain environment at an altitude of 800 meters, while pigs in the high-altitude group were placed in an experimental chamber simulating an altitude of 6 000 meters for 48 hours. Both groups received pistol gunshot to have firearm penetrating wounds to the abdominal intestinal tract and then returned to the plain observation room. At 0, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours after injury, coagulation in the peripheral blood and fibrinolytic indexes [prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time (TT), fibrinogen (Fbg), D-dimer (D-D), and fibrinogen degradation product (FDP)], thromboelastogram (TEG) [reaction time (R), clotting time (K), clot formation rate (α), maximum amplitude (MA) and coagulation composite index (CI) ], platelet parameters [platelet count (PLT), mean platelet volume (MPV), platelet distribution width (PDW), and platelet-large cell ratio (P-LCR)] in the two groups were detected separately.Results:The PT values at 0 and 2 hours after injury in the high-altitude group were significantly lower than those in the plain group, while they were significantly higher at 8, 12 and 24 hours than those in the plain group ( P<0.01); there was no significant difference at 4 hours between the two groups ( P>0.05).

The K values at 0, 2, 4 and 8 hours after injury in the high-altitude group were significantly lower than those in the plain group, while they were significantly higher at 12 and 24 hours after injury than those in the plain group ( P<0.05 or 0.01). The α angles at 0, 2 and 4 hours after injury in the high-altitude group were significantly higher than those in the plain group, while they were significantly lower at 8, 12 and 24 hours after injury than those in the plain group ( P<0.01). The MA values at 0, 2 and 4 hours after the injury in the high-altitude group were significantly higher than those in the plain group, while they were significantly lower at 8, 12 and 24 hours after injury than those in the plain group ( P<0.01). The CI values at 0, 2 and 4 hours after injury in the high-altitude group were significantly higher than those in the plain group, while they were significantly lower at 8, 12 and 24 hours after injury than those in the plain group ( P<0.01).

The P-LCR values at 0, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours after injury in the high-altitude group were all significantly higher than those in the plain group ( P<0.01). Conclusion:Compared with the plain environments, pig intestinal firearm penetrating injury in the high-altitude environments is more prone to early hypercoagulable state accompanied by mild hyperfibrinolysis, and faster to reach a hypocoagulable state accompanied by obvious hyperfibrinolysis.

Objective To compare the results of accumulation and continuation methods in indoor radon measurement. Methods The radon concentrations in 30 households in 7 provincial capital cities of China were simultaneously measured using both accumulation and continuation methods. Results The radon concentration measured by accumulation method in 30 households ranged from 21 to 323 Bq/m³, with a median M(P₂₅, P₇₅) of 70.5 (43.8, 111). The radon concentration measured by the continuation method ranged from 16.1 to 258 Bq/m³, with a median M(P₂₅, P₇₅) of 100 (51.3, 141). The average relative percent deviation between the two measurement methods was 41.8%. There were significant differences among the measurement results at 8, 16, and 24 h by the continuation method. Pairwise comparisons showed there were statistical diffferences between 8 h and 16 h, as well as between 8 h and 24h; however, no statistical significance was found (P < 0.05), between 16 h and 24 h. Conclusion The overall continuous measurement results of the 30 households were higher than those of cumulation method. The comparison between accumulation and continuation measurement results did not show a high level of correlation (r=0.49). The continuation method is significantly affected by environmental factors, and the length of the measurement period can affect the measurement results. The selection of indoor radon measurement methods should consider the purpose, sample size, and environmental conditions.

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.

Abstract: To report a case of Aspergillus salwaensis-induced spinal infection and its laboratory detection. The inflammatory granulation and necrotic tissue samples of a patient with spinal infection were collected from, the Affiliated Hospital of Chengde Medical College on June 17, 2020 for direct smear microscopy and culture, and the isolated strain was identified by microscopy by smear staining, matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS), molecular identification and in vitro antifungal susceptibility test. The patient was 62 years old female and presented with recurrent chest and back pain with no obvious cause. The initial diagnosis was spinal infection, after 7 days of treatment with levofloxacin, the effect was not good. Surgery was then performed remove the lesion via posterior thoracic debridement, and fungal hypha was observed under microscope in tissue specimens. The isolated strains had no typical structure, MALDI-TOF-MS was used for identification for many times, but there was no identification result. After 7 days of fluconazole treatment, the patient's condition improved, and her chest and back pain were alleviated compared to before surgery. The patient was discharged and followed up in the outpatient department, the fungus was later identified as Aspergillus salwaensis by sequence analysis of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) gene sequencing, and the patient's antifungal medication was changed to voriconazole after with the attending physician. The patient consciously recovered well with no pain in the operative area and normal spinal activity at 1 year follow-up. The possibility of spinal fungal infection should be considered in patients with back pain without a clear cause and poor response to routine antibiotic treatment. Direct smear report of microscopic results are very important for guiding clinical antibiotic selection for rare filament fungi with atypical colony and microscopic morphology and unsuccessful MALDI-TOF-MS identification, molecular biological methods such as ITS sequence analysis can be helpful for early identification of the fungal species, improving identification speed.

Objective To primarily investigate the indoor radon concentrations in the urban and rural dwellings in Yinchuan, China, and to estimate the effective dose. Methods A total of 67 dwellings, which included 49 urban households and 18 rural households in Yinchuan, were selected to cumulatively measure the indoor radon concentrations for more than 3 months using solid state nuclear track detection. Results The arithmetic mean, geometric mean, median, and range of indoor radon concentrations in urban and rural areas in Yinchuan were 64 Bq/m³, 59 Bq/m³, 57 Bq/m³, and 25-172 Bq/m³, respectively. Surveillance sites with an indoor radon concentration higher than 100 Bq/m³ accounted for 7.5%. Indoor radon concentrations in rural areas were higher than those in urban areas. Indoor radon concentrations were highest in winter and lowest in summer. The effective dose of indoor radon exposure among residents in Yinchuan was 1.86 mSv/a. Conclusion The results of indoor radon concentrations measured in this investigation in Yinchuan are significantly higher than those measured in the 1990s. The annual effective dose is higher than the mean levels in the world and China.

Objective:To explore the effect of eCASH nursing model on the prevention of delirium and quality of care for patients with coronary heart disease in ICU after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) .Methods:A total of 188 patients with coronary heart disease who underwent PCI in Henan Provincial People's Hospital from January 2019 to December 2020 were selected by the convenient sampling method and they were admitted to ICU after surgery. Patients admitted from January to December 2019 were set as the control group ( n=94) and received routine care. Patients admitted from January to December 2020 were set as the observation group ( n=94) and received eCASH nursing mode. The incidence of delirium [Confusion Assessment Method for the Intensive Care Unit (CAM-ICU) ], hospitalization (bed time, ICU stay time, total length of stay) , nursing quality (Inpatient Nursing Job Satisfaction Scale) and complications during hospitalization were compared between the two groups. Results:The incidence of delirium, bed time, length of stay in ICU and total length of stay in observation group were lower than those in control group and the score of Inpatient Nursing Job Satisfaction Scale was lower than that in control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . During hospitalization, there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of puncture site hematoma, skin blister, infection and limb venous thrombosis between 2 groups ( P>0.05) . The incidence of urinary retention in observation group was lower than that in control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The eCASH nursing mode can help ICU patients with coronary heart disease to prevent delirium after PCI, shorten the length of hospital stay, improve quality of nursing and help to reduce complications during the hospital stay.

Objective To investigate the influencing factors for rebleeding after gastroscopy in patients with liver cirrhosis and esophagogastric variceal bleeding. Methods A retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of the patients with liver cirrhosis and esophagogastric variceal bleeding who were hospitalized in Tianjin Third Central Hospital from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2018, and according to the presence or absence of rebleeding and bleeding time, the patients were divided into non-bleeding group ( n =148) and bleeding group ( n =119). The risk factors for rebleeding after gastroscopy were analyzed. The t -test or the Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of continuous data between two groups, and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between two groups. The Cox regression model was used for univariate and multivariate analyses. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the accuracy of Child-Turcotte-Pugh (CTP), fibrosis-4 (FIB-4), and albumin-bilirubin (ALBI) scores in predicting rebleeding after gastroscopy, and MedCalc was used to compare the area under the ROC curve (AUC). Results A total of 267 patients with liver cirrhosis and esophagogastric variceal bleeding were enrolled, among whom 53 (19.9%) had liver cancer. A total of 119 patients suffered from rebleeding, with an overall rebleeding rate of 44.6% and a median time to rebleeding of 11.0 (0-39.0) months. The univariate Cox regression analysis showed that liver cancer (hazard ratio [ HR ]=0.377, P < 0.001), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) ( HR =1.002, P =0.025), serum Na ( HR =0.935, P =0.004), and FIB-4 ( HR =1.030, P =0.049) were associated with rebleeding, and the multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that liver cancer ( HR =0.357, P < 0.001), AST ( HR =1.003, P =0.030), prothrombin time (PT) ( HR =0.196, P =0.001), CTP score ( HR =1.289, P =0.014), FIB-4 ( HR =1.062, P =0.033), and ALBI score ( HR =0.433, P =0.011) were independent risk factors for rebleeding. CTP, FIB-4, and ALBI scores had an AUC of 0.711 (95% confidence interval [ CI ]: 0.647-0.776), 0.705 (95% CI : 0.640-0.770), and 0.730 (95% CI : 0.667-0.793), respectively, in predicting rebleeding. There was no significant difference in AUC between CTP, FIB-4, and ALBI scores ( P > 0.05). Conclusion Liver cancer, AST, PT, CTP score, FIB-4 score, and ALBI score are associated with rebleeding after gastroscopy in patients with liver cirrhosis and esophagogastric variceal bleeding, among which CTP, FIB-4, and ALBI scores have a good value in predicting rebleeding outcome, while there is no significant difference in predictive ability between them.
