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 influence of impulsivity on digital addiction tendencies in patients with Wilson disease(WD)and its related factors.Methods A total of 66 patients with WD were included in the study which were divided into neurological WD group(42 cases)and hepatic WD group(24 cases)according to clinical manifestations.Sixty-six WD patients were included as the study subjects,including 24 cases of hepatic WD and 42 cases of neurological WD.The Chinese version of the Barratt impulsiveness scale(BIS-11-C)was used to assess patients'impulsiveness.Mobile phone addiction index(MPAI)evaluates the degree of dependence on mobile phone use.Cranial MRI was used to examine the location and cumulative frequency of the diseased brain region.Results Among the 66 WD patients,45 cases(68.2% )had the tendency of digital addiction,including 35 cases(53.0% )in the neurological WD group and 10 cases(15.2% )in the hepatic WD group.There was a statistically significant difference in the proportion of the two types of WD patients(P=0.001).The scores of BIS-11-C and MPAI scales in neurological WD group were higher than those in hepatic WD group(P<0.05).The out-of-control score in the MPAI scale is positively correlated with the attention impulsivity score(r=0.499,P=0.001),motor impulsivity score(r=0.553,P=0.001),unplanned impulsivity score(r=0.535,P=0.001),and impulse control score(r=0.653,P=0.001)in the BIS-11-C scale.Linear regression analysis showed a correlation between attention impulsivity score and frontal lobe lesions(B=-1.634,P=0.018).There was a correlation between loss of control score and frontal lobe lesions(B=-3.609,P=0.023).The withdrawal score was associated with the thalamus lesions(B=-5.047,P=0.007)and frontal lobe lesions(B=-2.204,P=0.024).Avoidance score was associated with parietal lobe lesions(B=-1.867,P=0.032).The low efficacy score was associated with the putamen lesions(B=-1.789,P=0.016)and frontal lobe lesions(B=-1.592,P=0.044).Conclusion Neurological WD patients have higher tendency of digital addiction than hepatic WD patients and the tendency of digital addiction is related to impulsivity.The digital addiction tendency of WD patients may be related to impulse control disorders caused by lesions in multiple brain regions such as the putamen,thalamus,and frontal lobe.

Objective:To investigate the characteristics of attention bias in Wilson disease(WD) patients with different levels of state-trait anxiety.Methods:The emotional Stroop paradigm and the state-trait anxiety inventory(STAI) were used to evaluate the anxiety level and the characteristics of attention bias in 49 inpatients with WD.SPSS 25.0 software was used for statistical analysis.Independent sample t-test was used for comparison between the two groups.Multiple linear regression analysis was used to evaluated the influencing factors of attentional bias response time. Results:(1) In WD patients, the response times measured under the positive, negative and neutral words in the high trait anxiety group((867.0±172.1)ms, (877.0±167.7)ms, (898.4±169.8)ms, respectively) were significantly higher than the low trait anxiety group((771.9±128.9)ms, (770.9±110.4)ms, (778.4±120.1)ms, respectively) and the differences were statistically significant( t=-2.183, -2.605, -2.847, all P<0.05). The response times under the positive, negative and neutral word measured in the high state anxiety group((866.9±171.9)ms, (867.8±173.8)ms, (889.8±173.5)ms, respectively) were higher than those of the low state anxiety group((771.9±129.2)ms, (780.4±109.3)ms, (787.3±123.0)ms, respectively) and the differences were statistically significant( t=-2.177, -2.116, -2.378, all P<0.05). (2) Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the total score of trait anxiety ( B=4.584, 4.671, 5.376, P=0.020, 0.015, 0.008) and age ( B=9.314, 7.864, 7.505, P=0.002, 0.008, 0.014) were the influencing factors of response times measured under the positive, negative and neutral emotion words. Conclusion:Anxiety will lead patients with WD to show more negative attention bias, and trait anxiety can significantly predict the characteristics of attention bias.

Objective To investigate the impulsivity and aggressiveness characteristics of patients with hepatolenticular degeneration (HLD) and its relationship with brain structure.Methods The Chinese version of the Barratt impulsiveness scale,11 version (BIS-1 1-C) and Buss-Perry aggression questionnaire (BPAQ) were assessed in 78 patients with hepatolenticular degeneration(HLD group) and 86 normal adults (health control group).HLD patients were examined by 3.0T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).The differences in impulsivity and aggressiveness of the two groups were compared,and the relationship was analyzed between impulsivity,aggressiveness and different brain structures in patients with HLD.Results The total impulsive score,unplanned factor score,the total aggressive score and anger factor score of patients with cerebral HLD (61.74±9.82,26.08±5.06,82.71 ± 15.92,20.06± 5.74,respectively) were higher than those in patients with hepatic HLD (56.73±7.11,23.02±4.20,72.84± 11.15,16.64±5.01,respectively),and health control group(52.19±7.53,21.50± 3.93,64.64±9.83,14.27 ±4.38,respectively),and the differences were significant (F=3.193,4.646,11.830,8.270,all P＜0.05).Total impulsive score was positively correlated with aggressive score and physical aggression in HLD group(r=0.299,0.290,both P＜0.05).Unplanned score was positively correlated with aggressive total score (r=0.324) and physical aggression (r=0.320) in HLD group (P＜0.05).Frontal lobe injury was the influencing factor of total impulsive score(B=10.263,95％CI=0.467-19.946,P=0.008),attention score(B=2.837,95％CI=0.382-5.600,P=0.010) and unplanned factor score (B=3.977,95％ CI=0.848-8.502,P=0.046).Thalamus injury was the influencing factor of aggressive total score and its factor score.Caudate nucleus injury was the influencing factor of aggressive total score (B=10.030,95％ CI=3.351-18.039,P=0.017) and physical aggression score (B =4.432,95％ CI=1.193-7.729,P=0.016).Conclusion Patients with HLD have higher impulsive and aggressive tendencies,which are mainly manifested in unplanned impulsive and anger tendencies.Brain injury may be an important factor affecting impulsiveness and aggression in patients with HLD.Impulsiveness is related with frontal lobe injury and aggression to thalamus and caudate nucleus injury.Impulsiveness and aggressiveness in patients with HLD are not caused by damage to isolated brain areas,but are related to damage to multiple brain areas.

Objective To explore cognitive impairment and related factors in patients with Wilson disease (WD) and to screen the risk factors of cognitive impairment in order to provide evidence for clinical intervention. Methods The Chinese Version Addenbrooke＇s Cognitive Examination-III (ACE-III-C) was used to assess the cognitive function. The WD patients with cognitive impairment were analyzed the difference between those with non-cognitive disorders in the Young scale, Baethel scale and biochemical indicators. Risk factors for cognitive impairment in WD patients were analyzed by multiple linear regression. Results Cognitive impairment occurred in 43 (59.7%) of 72 patients with WD. ACE-III-C total score, attention, memory, language fluency, visual spatial factor scores, Young scores, Barthel scores and serum copper levels were significantly different between patients with cognitive impairment and patients with non-cognitive impairment (P＜0.01). Linear regression analysis showed that serum copper levels were the most important risk factors for ACE-III-C total score and cognitive subfields (P＜0.01). Serum zinc levels as a secondary risk factor of language fluency and visual space (P＜0.05). Age-related participation affected language fluency (P＜0.05). Conclusions Serum copper and zinc levels may be the main risk factors of cognitive impairment. Modulation of serum copper and zinc levels may be the key for intervention to treat cognitive impairment in WD patients.

Neddylation is a post-translational protein modification process. MLN4924 is a newly discovered pharmaceutical neddylation inhibitor that suppresses cancer growth with several cancer types. In our study, we first investigated the effect of MLN4924 on colon cancer cells (HCT116 and HT29). MLN4924 significantly inhibited the neddylation of cullin-1 and colon cancer cell growth in a time and dose-dependent manner. MLN4924 induced G2/M cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in HCT116 and HT29 cells. Moreover, MLN4924 also triggered autophagy in HCT116 and HT29 cells via suppressing the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. Inhibiting autophagy by autophagy inhibitor 3-MA or ATG5 knockdown reversed the function of MLN4924 in suppressing colon cancer cell growth and cell death. Interestingly, MLN4924 suppresses colon cell growth in a xenograft model. Together, our finding revealed that blocking neddylation is an attractive colon cancer therapy strategy, and autophagy might act as a novel anti-cancer mechanism for the treatment of colon cancer by MLN4924.

Objective To study the effect of high copper on Wnt /β-catenin signaling pathway and oxidative stress. Methods BRL-3A cells were incubated with different concentrations of CuSO4.The cell growth and proliferation wre assessed using MRR method.The production of reactive oxygen species(ROS)and mitochondrial membrane potential (JC-1) were examined usingf flow cytometry. The content of malondialdehyde (MDA) and the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) were detected by microplate reader. The expression of protein was detected by Western Blot. Results①The results of MTT showed that CuSO4inhibited the growth and proliferation of BRL-3A cells in a time- and concentration-dependent manner(P<0.01).②Flow cytometry results showed that CuSO4induced a large amount of ROS and significantly decreased the fluorescence intensity of JC-1 in BRL-3A cells (P<0.01). ③ Microplate reader results showed that CuSO4increased the content of MDA and decreased the activity of SOD (P<0.05).④Western blotting assay showed that CuSO4significantly decreased the total expression levels of β-catenin and p-Ser 9-GSK-3β protein as well as nuclear levels of p-(S33+S37)-β-catenin and c-Myc (P<0.01) and increased expression levels of GSK-3β、DKK1、Dishevelled3 protein in BRL-3A cells. Conclusion High copper can induce oxidative stress and induce Wnt /β-catenin signaling pathway to deactivate liver cells,leading to hepatocellular injury.

Objective To examine the brain metabolic changes in WD patients receiving copper chelation by us?ing 1H-MRS. Method Thirty-nine patients with WD was randomly divided into four groups: non-brain type group (18 cases), brain type prior-treatment group and short-term treatment group (21 cases), long-term treatment group (20 cases) from short-term treatment group, and 20 healthy volunteers served as a control group. 1H-MRS and MRI were performed on patients on 1.5/MR/MRS system to detect these above-mentioned items before and after treatment. Result The mean of NAA/Cr was significantly lower in the left putamen and head of the caudate nucleus than in the left basal ganglion in the 39 patients with WD. The mean of NAA/Cr and Cho/Cr in the left putamen and basal ganglion was significantly lower in non-brain type group than in control group(P<0.01). The mean of NAA/Cr Cho/Cr and NAA/Cho in the left putamen,head of the caudate nucleus and basal ganglion were significantly lower in brain type group than in control group(P<0.01 or P<0.05). The mean of NAA/Cr in the left putamen was much lower in brain type group than in non-brain type group (P<0.01). The mean of NAA/Cr, Cho/Cr and NAA/Cho of short-term treatment group in the left putamen, head of the caudate nucleus and basal ganglion was not significantly different between brain type group and short-term treatment group(P>0.05). The mean of NAA/Cr and NAA/Cho in the left putamen and basal ganglion was much higher in long-term treatment group than in brain type group(P<0.01 or P<0.05). The mean of Cho/Cr in the left head of caudate nucleus were much higher after treatment compared with prior-treatment group(P<0.05). The mean of NAA/Cr in the left putamen, head of the left caudate nucleus and basal ganglion in all groups was negatively correlated with course of the disease. Conclusion There are significant differences in brain metabolism among different type of WD. The long-term but not short-term copper chelation significantly improves brain metabolism. NAA/Cr may be used as a non-invasive indicator to examine the efficacy of treatment.

Objective To study the regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) and correlated factors in patients with hepatolenticular degeneration (HLD).Methods The rCBF of lentiform nucleus,thalamus and other sites in 14 patients with HLD of cerebral type (cerebral type group) and 10 patients with HLD of non-cerebral type (non-cerebral type group) were determined by magnetic resonance-perfusion imaging technology,meanwhile 13 healthy volunteers were selected as control group,and calculated the relative regional cerebral blood flow (rrCBF) for avoiding perfusion time lag.The correlation between the clinical symptom scores,the content of urinary copper,duration and rrCBF in HLD patients were evaluated.Results The rrCBF of cerebral type group in the left and right frontal lobe,temporal lobe,lentiform nucleus,caudate nucleus,thalamus,midbrain,pons and the left hippocampus,cerebellar cortex,dentate nucleus were lower than those of control group (1.91 ±0.35 vs.2.44 ±0.64,1.80 ±0.30 vs.2.37 ±0.65,1.37 ±0.35 vs.2.14 ±0.91,1.58 ±0.52 vs.2.39 ±0.99,1.61 ±0.38 vs.2.59 ±0.74,1.52 ±0.64 vs.2.63 ±0.73,1.88 ±0.32 vs.2.61 ±0.67,1.70 ±0.40 vs.2.35 ±0.50,1.48 ±0.13 vs.2.01 ±0.59,1.46 ±0.38 vs.2.38 ±0.99,1.47 ±0.55 vs.2.02 ±0.72,1.27 ±0.48 vs.1.91 ±0.51,1.24 ±0.38 vs.1.47 ±0.29,1.25 ±0.39 vs.1.53 ±0.37,1.74 ±0.27 vs.2.40 ±0.89,1.79 ±0.50 vs.2.22 ±0.66,2.15 ±0.41 vs.2.64 ± 0.61),and there were significant differences (P ＜ 0.05 or ＜ 0.01).There were no significant differences in the rrCBF of the parietal and occipital lobe,etc between cerebral type group and control group (P ＞ 0.05).The rrCBF of cerebral type group in the left and right lentiform nucleus were lower than those of non-cerebral type group (1.61 ± 0.38 vs.1.94 ± 0.58,1.52 ± 0.64 vs.1.99 ± 0.59),and there were significant differences (P ＜ 0.05).The clinical symptom scores were positively correlated with the rrCBF of the left and right lentiform nucleus in 24 patients with HLD (r =-0.792 and-0.764,P ＜ 0.01),the content of urinary copper and duration had no correlation with the rrCBF of the left and right lentiform nucleus(P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The rCBF of cerebral type and non-cerebral type HLD is significantly reduced,cerebral type patients have lower rCBF than non-cerebral type patients.The rCBF is correlated with the clinical symptom scores.

OBJECTIVETo study the clinical and genetic characteristics of twins and siblings affected with Wilson's disease (WD).

METHODSClinical data and blood samples were collected from the subjects after informed consent was obtained. Genomic DNA was extracted and potential mutations in the exons in ATP7B gene were detected with PCR-DNA sequencing. Short tandem repeat (STR) genotyping was performed to determine the zygosity of the twins.

RESULTSThe 5 pairs of twins have all met the diagnostic criteria for WD. STR genotyping has confirmed that 4 pairs were monozygotic twins. 3 pairs of twins had an onset with liver symptoms, the other 2 had an onset with brain symptoms. ATP7B gene mutations were detected in 4 pairs of twins, which have all located in exons 8 and 13. A heterozygous p.R778W mutation in exon 8 and homozygous p.P992L mutation in exon 13 were detected in all patients from one family, whose parents have carried a heterozygous p.R778W mutation and p.P992L heterozygous mutation, respectively, which suggested loss of heterozygosity (LOH). In one family, no mutation was detected in all exons of the ATP7B gene in the patients and their parents. For a triplet, one female was with definite WD and brain symptoms at the onset, one male had subclinical type with WD, whilst another female was completely normal. The triplets and their mother have all carried a p.P992L heterozygous mutation .

CONCLUSIONAbove results have confirmed an important role for genetic factors in the pathogenesis of WD. In addition to point mutations, LOH is also involved in the pathogenesis for WD.
