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.

The World Health Organization (WHO) classification serves as the internationally recognized standard for diagnosing and classifying hematopoietic and lymphoid tissue tumors(WHO-HEAM). Since 2001, it has undergone multiple upgrades and revisions, updating, clarifying, and refining previous tumor diagnostic and classification standards while incorporating numerous new genetic and molecular biological subtypes. In 2022, two classification proposals emerged due to a wealth of clinical and scientific research results: the fifth edition of the WHO hematopoietic and lymphoid tissue classification (WHO-HAEM5), published in Leukemia journal; and the International Consensus Classification (ICC), published in Blood journal. These two schemes differ in their approach to classifying hematopoietic and lymphoid tissue tumors, posing challenges for clinical laboratory diagnosis and treatment.

During coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic, the treatment of severe trauma has been impacted. The Consensus on emergency surgery and infection prevention and control for severe trauma patients with 2019 novel corona virus pneumonia was published online on February 12, 2020, providing a strong guidance for the emergency treatment of severe trauma and the self-protection of medical staffs in the early stage of the epidemic. With the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council renaming "novel coronavirus pneumonia" to "novel coronavirus infection" and the infection being managed with measures against class B infectious diseases since January 8, 2023, the consensus published in 2020 is no longer applicable to the emergency treatment of severe trauma in the new stage of epidemic prevention and control. In this context, led by the Chinese Traumatology Association, Chinese Trauma Surgeon Association, Trauma Medicine Branch of Chinese International Exchange and Promotive Association for Medical and Health Care, and Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Traumatology, the Chinese expert consensus on emergency surgery for severe trauma and infection prevention during coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic ( version 2023) is formulated to ensure the effectiveness and safety in the treatment of severe trauma in the new stage. Based on the policy of the Joint Prevention and Control Mechanism of the State Council and by using evidence-based medical evidence as well as Delphi expert consultation and voting, 16 recommendations are put forward from the four aspects of the related definitions, infection prevention, preoperative assessment and preparation, emergency operation and postoperative management, hoping to provide a reference for severe trauma care in the new stage of the epidemic prevention and control.

Blast injury of the chest injury is the most common wound in modern war trauma and terrorist attacks, and is also the most fatal type of whole body explosion injury. Most patients with severe blast injury of the chest die in the early stage before hospitalization or during transportation, so first aid is critically important. At present, there exist widespread problems such as non-standard treatment and large difference in curative effect, while there lacks clinical treatment standards for blast injury of the chest. According to the principles of scientificity, practicality and advancement, the Trauma Society of Chinese Medical Association has formulated the guidance of classification, pre-hospital first aid, in-hospital treatment and major injury management strategies for blast injury of the chest, aiming to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Previous studies believe that oligometastasis has unique biological characteristics. Early active treatment for patients with oligometastatic prostate cancer can delay disease progression and improve survival. However, the current definition of oligometastasis is still unclear, and its optimal treatment is still a major concern of the medical community. This article reviewed recent research progresses in term of the definition and comprehensive treatment strategy of oligometastatic prostate cancer.

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics of elderly patients with coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19), in order to provide scientific evidence for the diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19 in elderly patients.Methods:Clinical data of 102 patients with COVID-19 admitted to the B11 East Ward of the Zhongfaxincheng campus and the E1-3 ward of the Guanggu Campus of Tongji Hospital affiliated to Huazhong University of Science and Technology in Wuhan from 1 February 2020 to 28 February 2020 were retrospectively collected and analyzed.Patients were categorized into 2 groups: the elderly group(≥60 years old)and the young and middle-aged group(<60 years old). Differences in epidemiological features, demographics, clinical symptoms, laboratory results and imaging findings between the two groups were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Among 102 patients with COVID-19, 58 were in the elderly group(≥60 years old), with a median age of 67.0(63.8, 71.0)years old, and 44 in the young and middle-aged group(<60 years old), with a median age of 47.5(38.0, 51.8)years old.There was no significant difference in gender ratio between the two groups( χ2=0.033, P=0.855). Of 102 patients, 42.0%(21/50)had close contact with an infected person, 14.0%(7/50)were from infection clusters, and 18.0%(9/50)had suspected hospital-acquired infections.Fever and cough remained the most common symptoms, but gastrointestinal symptoms such as nausea, poor appetite, diarrhea and muscle cramps were also warning signs.Fatigue and cough were the most common presenting symptoms in elderly male patients.Bilateral patchy infiltrates(57.9%, 22/38)and ground-glass opacities(42.1%, 16/38)were the main imaging features and 42.1%(16/38)patients had multiple areas of the lungs involved.Over 50% patients had increased levels of blood glucose, D-dimer, fibrinogen, C-reactive protein, procalcitonin, multiple cytokines and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio, as well as decreased levels of albumin, hemoglobin, hematocrit, lymphocytes and serum calcium.Compared with the young and middle-aged group, the elderly group had higher rates of abnormality in levels of D-dimer and serum calcium( χ2=7.067 and 4.166, P=0.008 and 0.041). Conclusions:Fever and cough are the most common symptoms in elderly patients with COVID-19.Elderly patients with COVID-19 have multiple abnormalities in clinical laboratory test results, which show a certain level of specificity compared with young and middle-aged patients.

Objective:To determine the influences of structural changes after valgus impacted femoral neck fracture on hip range of motion (ROM) so as to provide evidence for clinical judgment of whether reduction is necessary or not in the internal fixation of such fractures.Methods:1. 3D reconstructions of the CT hip scans were performed for the 73 patients who had been treated at Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Shanghai Sixth People’s Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University for valgus impacted femoral neck fractures from January 2019 to April 2019.The femoral neck-shaft angle, anteversion angle, femoral offset, axial alpha angle, lateral center edge angle (LCEA), anterior center edge angle (ACEA) and center displacement were measured and compared between the affected and healthy sides to determine the influences of the fracture on the above indexes. 2. Hip motions (flexion and MIR-90°) were simulated on bilateral sides to determine the influences of structural changes after fracture on hip ROM using stepwise regression and Logistic regression. 3. The distribution of femoral-acetabular contact points on the femoral side was observed in simulation of hip flexion to detect the potential area for femoracetabular impingement (FAI) induced by the fracture displacement.Results:1. The valgus impacted femoral neck fractures had significant influences on femoral neck-shaft angle, anteversion angle, femoral offset and axial alpha angle. Compared with the healthy side, on average, the femoral neck-shaft angle increased by 5.1°, anteversion angle decreased by 6.5°, femoral offset decreased by 8.2 mm and axial alpha angle increased by 9.7° on the affected side, showing significant differences ( P<0.05).The displacements of the femoral head center averaged 9.2 mm. There was no significant difference in LCEA or ACEA between the affected and healthy sides ( P>0.05). 2. Compared with the healthy side, on average, the simulated hip flexion decreased significantly by 27.0° and the hip MIR-90° decreased significantly by 20.3° on the affected side after fracture ( P<0.05). Regression analysis showed that femoral anteversion angle, ACEA and displacement of the femoral head center had a significant influence on hip ROM, especially the anteversion angle. When the anteversion angle decreased by more than 7.1°, the hip flexion would decrease by at least 20%. 3. The points of FAI distributed more widely on the fracture side. Compared with the healthy side, the impact points extended outward and upward in hip flexion and extended inwardly in hip MIR-90° on the affected side. Conclusions:After a valgus impacted femoral neck fracture, if the femoral anteversion angle has been decreased by more than 7.1°, the hip ROM can be greatly influenced and the points of FAI can be distributed more widely. Therefore, reduction should be recommended before internal fixation of the fracture.

Objective:To investigate the application value of 3D printing technology in preoperative evaluation of laparoscopic radical resection of right colon cancer.Methods:The prospective study was conducted. The clinical data of 60 patients with right colon cancer who were admitted to the Affiliated Wuxi Second People′s Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January to November of 2019 were collected. Patients were randomly divided into two groups by random number method. All the 60 patients were examined by plain scan and enhanced X-ray computed tomography (CT) preoperatively. Patients with vascular images printed into a 1∶1 full simulation entity using the 3D printing technology were divided into 3D printing group, and patients who only completed the plain scan and enhanced CT examination were divided into control group. All the 60 patients underwent laparoscopic complete mesocolic excision for right colon cancer. Observation indicators: (1) anatomic courses of Henle trunk of the 3D printing group in the preoperative 3D printing models and their consistency with intraoperative anatomic courses; (2) intraoperative and postoperative situations of two groups. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the independent-sample t test. Count data were expressed as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test. Results:A total of 60 patients were selected for eligibility, including 42 males and 18 females, aged (64±7)years, with a range from 44 to 78 years. Of the 60 patients, 30 were in the 3D printing group and 30 were in the control group. (1) Anatomic courses of Henle trunk of the 3D printing group in the preoperative 3D printing models and their consistency with intraoperative anatomic courses: Henle trunk was observed in 28 of the 30 patients in the 3D printing group. Of the 28 patients, 7 had the gastropancreatic trunk of 2 branches formed with the right gastroepiploic vein and the superior anterior pancreaticoduodenal vein, 13 had the gastrocolonic trunk of 2 or 3 branches formed with the right gastroepiploic vein, the middle colonic vein and (or) the right colonic vein (including 4 cases with gastrocolonic trunk of 2 branches formed with the right gastroepiploic vein and the middle colonic vein, 6 cases with gastrocolonic trunk of 2 branches formed with the right gastroepiploic vein and the right colonic vein, 3 cases with gastrocolonic trunk of 3 branches formed with the right gastroepiploic vein, the middle colonic vein and the right colonic vein), 8 had the gastropancreaticocolonic trunk of 3 or 4 branches formed with the right gastroepiploic vein, the superior anterior pancreaticoduodenal vein, the right colonic vein and (or) the middle colonic vein (including 4 cases with gastropancreaticocolonic trunk of 3 branches formed with the right gastroepiploic vein, the superior anterior pancreaticoduodenal vein and the middle colonic vein, 2 cases with gastropancreaticocolonic trunk of 3 branches formed with the right gastroepiploic vein, the superior anterior pancreaticoduodenal vein and the right colonic vein, 2 cases with gastropancreaticocolonic trunk of 4 branches formed with the right gastroepiploic vein, the superior anterior pancreaticoduodenal vein, the right colonic vein and the middle colonic vein). The consistency of anatomic courses of Henle trunk of the 28 patients in the preoperative 3D printing models with intraoperative anatomic courses of bared Henle trunk was 100%(28/28). (2) Intraoperative and postoperative situations of two groups: the operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, the numbers of lymph node dissected, cases with postoperative complications (cases with incision infection, cases with intestinal obstruction, cases with anastomotic leakage, cases with pulmonary infection), postoperative duration of hospital of the 3D printing group were (147±18)minutes, (79±29)mL, 19.1±2.8, 3 (1, 1, 0, 1), (9.0±2.5)days, respectively. The above indicators of the control group were (172±16)minutes, (118±17)mL, 15.6±2.6, 4(1, 1, 1, 1), (9.1±2.6)days, respectively. There were significant differences in the operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, the numbers of lymph node dissected between the two groups ( t=-5.630, -18.400, 3.318, P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in the cases with postoperative complications and postoperative duration of hospital between the two groups ( χ2=0.875, t=0.103, P>0.05). Conclusion:For laparoscopic right colon cancer radical resection, 3D printing technology can effectively evaluate the preoperative vascular anatomic courses, which can shorten operation time, reduce volume of intraoperative blood loss and improve the number of lymph node dissected.
