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 summarize the clinical characteristics of patients with occupational melanosis. Methods Diagnostic data of 69 patients with occupational melanosis was analyzed using retrospective analysis. Results The main occupational hazards for the 69 patients with occupational melanosis were coal tar, petroleum and its fractionated products, pigments and dyes and their intermediates, rubber additives and rubber products. The median length of occupational exposure and disease latency were 8.0 and 6.0 years, respectively, with a highly positive correlation between them (Spearman correlation coefficients=0.962, P<0.01). Skin lesions were mainly found on exposed areas such as the face-to-neck and limbs, prevalence of 94.2% and 75.4% respectively. And 78.3% of patients had skin lesion on more than two sites. The lesions were mostly in the form of irregular flakes (59.4%), with a gray-black color (44.9%). About 43.5% of patients experienced skin itching. Complete blood count, liver function, and kidney function were all within normal ranges. Skin biopsy results showed that epidermal hyperkeratosis, thinning of the spinous layer, liquefaction degeneration of basal cells, increased superficial dermal melanocytes, and infiltration of lymphocytes, histiocytes, and melanocytes around the blood vessels. Reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) detection showed focal liquefaction degeneration of basal cells in the lesions, with a significant infiltration of melanocytes and inflammatory cells in the dermal papillae and superficial layers. Conclusion The primary target organ of occupational melanocytes is the skin, and no damage to other organs was identified thus far. Results from skin biopsies and RCM examinations can be used for differential diagnosis.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the genetic basis for a Chinese pedigree affected with N-acetylglutamate synthase deficiency.
METHODS:
Trio whole exome sequencing (WES) was carried out for the pedigree. Pathogenicity of the identified variant was predicted based on the latest recommendation of the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG). Prenatal diagnosis was provided for subsequent pregnancy through Sanger sequencing.
RESULTS:
Trio WES showed that the proband has carried compound heterozygous c.68delG and c.796G>C variants of NAGS gene, for which the mother and father were respectively heterozygous carriers. Neither variant was reported previously. Based on the ACMG guidelines, the c.68delG variant was classified as "likely pathogenic" (PVS1+PM2), while the c.796G>C variant was classified as with "uncertain significance" (PM2+BP4). Sanger sequencing validated the above findings, and only detected the heterozygous c.796G>C variant in the amniotic fluid sample. The fetus was followed up till 6 month after birth with no obvious abnormality.
CONCLUSION
The compound heterozygous c.68delG and c.796G>C variants of the NAGS gene probably underlay the disorder in this pedigree, and the resulth asenabled genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis for this pedigree.

OBJECTIVE:
To explore the cause for the failure of non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) and feasibility of repeated testing.
METHODS:
Clinical data, test results and pregnancy outcomes of 40 311 pregnant women who received NIPT test from January 2011 to December 2018 were reviewed.
RESULTS:
Among all the pregnant women, 1116 cases failed in the first test, 9 cases (0.81%) had fetal free DNA concentration lower than 4%, 663 cases (59.41%) were retested after the establishment of Z value gray area, and the remainder 444 cases (39.78%) needed to be retested after the blood collection due to the fetal free DNA concentration lower than 4%. After retesting, 1069 cases (95.78%) obtained effective NIPT results. The results showed that 53 cases were at high risk (6 cases for trisomy 21, 6 cases for trisomy 18, 13 cases for trisomy 13, 16 cases for sex chromosomal abnormality, 12 cases for chromosomal copy number variation). Forty-eight cases were selected for invasive prenatal diagnosis, and 2 cases of 47, XXY and 2 CNV were confirmed. A total of 47 cases (0.12%) did not obtain results because the concentration of fetal free DNA was lower than 4%. Only 16 cases (34%) chose invasive prenatal diagnosis.
CONCLUSION
Repeated detection of the gray area of Z value can reduce the false positive rate of NIPT and invasive prenatal diagnosis, and the feasibility of repeated detection is high. In the case of fetal free DNA concentration lower than 4%, the success rate of obtaining effective NIPT results by re-sampling and re-detection increases with the increase of gestational age, but may delay the diagnosis for fetal aneuploidies. Therefore, personalized estimation should be made according to gestational age and clinical indications. It is suggested that pregnant women should choose invasive prenatal diagnosis when they have failed in the retest.

Objective:To understand the current status of nurses' work engagement in cancer hospitals, explore its influencing factors and the mediating effect of work acceptance between hospital magnetic level and work engagement.Methods:In September 2019, 420 nurses from a ClassⅢ Grade A cancer hospital were selected as the research object by convenient sampling. The General Information Questionnaire, the Chinese version of the Essentials of Magnetism ScaleⅡ (EOMⅡ) , Work-related Acceptance and Action Questionnaire (WAAQ) and the Utrecht Work Engagement Scale (UWES) were used to conduct a cross-sectional survey of nurses. Single factor analysis, correlation analysis and structural equation model were used to analyze the relationship among hospital magnetic level, work acceptance and work engagement of nurse. A total of 420 questionnaires were distributed and 408 valid questionnaires were collected.Results:Among 408 nurses, the scores of EOM Ⅱ, WAAQ and UWES were (141.53±22.73) , (33.79±8.38) and (45.11±17.27) respectively. Work engagement was positively correlated with hospital magnetic level and work acceptance with statistical differences ( r=0.549, 0.564; P<0.01) . The hospital magnetic level had a positive predictive effect on work acceptance (β=0.39) and work engagement (β=0.40) , and work acceptance had a positive predictive effect on work engagement (β=0.47) . Work acceptance had a partial mediating effect between hospital magnetic level and work engagement, and the mediating effect accounted for 31.49% of the total effect. Conclusions:Work acceptance plays a part of the mediating role between hospital magnetic level and work engagement. Nursing managers can create a magnetic nursing work environment to promote nurses' work acceptance and increase their work engagement.
