Objective To establish a method of LC-MS/MS for determining cordycepin(Cor)and 3′-deoxyinosine(3′-Deo)concentration in rat plasma,and to study their pharmacokinetics in rats.Methods Protein was precipitated with methanol using 2-chloadenosine(2-Chl)as an internal standard.The chromatography was performed on Kinetex C18(3 mm×100 mm,2.6 μm,Phenomenex,USA)with gradient elution in aqueous(5 mmol·L-1 ammonium acetate)-methanol solution as mobile phase.ESI ion source was used for mass spectrometry,and positive ion multiple reaction monitoring(MRM)was used for scanning detection.The pharmacokinetics of Cor and 3′-Deo after oral administration of Cor(10 mg·kg-1)were studied in rats.Results Cor at 0.5-100 ng·mL-1 and 3′-Deo at 1-200 ng·mL-1 had good linearity,and the lower limits of quantification were 0.5 and 1 ng·mL-1,respectively.After oral administration of Cor in rats,the plasma concentration of Cor was low,which was mainly converted into the metabolite 3′-Deo.The Cmax of Cor and 3′-Deo were(5.4±3.4)and(142.0±50.0)ng·mL-1,and AUC0-360min min were(658.4±459.3)and(18 034.9±4 981.1)ng·min·mL-1,respectively.Conclusion The method is simple,sensi-tive,and accurate,which is suitable for determining Cor and 3′-Deo concentration in plasma and the pharmacokinetic study.

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.

Research on application of ultrasound has made continuous progress in airway manage-ment,providing theoretical basis and new ideas for clinical use of ultrasound in airway management,and ex-panding the application range of ultrasound in airway management.Ultrasound can develop real-time imaging and measure almost all the tissue structures of the whole airway,ensuring the accurate locating and measure-ment of airway anatomical structure,which offers objective theoretical support for airway evaluation.Its char-acteristic of real-time imaging also helps to guide endotracheal intubation,determine the position of endotra-cheal tube and laryngeal mask airway,and assess gastric contents.Artificial intelligence improves the accu-racy and efficiency of ultrasonic identification of anatomical structure,which promotes the expanded applica-tion of ultrasound in airway management.This article briefly outlines the recent advance in the application of ultrasound in guiding endotracheal intubation,confirming endotracheal intubation,detecting laryngeal mask airway position,predicting successful tracheal extubation,predicting difficult airway,locating airway ana-tomical structure,and assessing the risk of gastric aspiration,and discusses the application of ultrasound combined with artificial intelligence in airway management.

Objective:To explore the clinical effect of a self-designed wound measurement grid on the design of lobulated perforator flap.Methods:From January 2019 to December 2022, soft tissue defects in limbs of 9 patients were reconstructed by lobulated perforator flaps in the Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology of Shenzhen Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine. The patients were 7 males and 2 females aged 21-55 years old with 40.3 years old in average. There were 6 upper limb defects and 3 lower limb defects. Self-designed wound measuring grids were applied to guide the design and excision of lobulated perforator flaps during surgery. Five patients were treated by lobulated perforator flap pedicled with the descending branch of lateral circumflex femoral artery and 4 by perforator flaps pedicled with dorsal interosseous artery. The areas of soft tissue defect were 4.0 cm×1.5 cm-26.0 cm×8.0 cm, and the sizes of the flaps were 4.5 cm×1.8 cm-22.0 cm×10.0 cm. After surgery, the blood supply of flaps, flap survival and wound healing were monitored. Flap survival, donor site recovery and limb function were observed at outpatient clinic over the postoperative follow-up, and the limb function was evaluated by the Evaluation Standard of Upper Limb Partial Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association and Lower Extremity Measure(LEM).Results:In this study, a total of 17 of 18 lobes of the lobulated perforator flaps survived after surgery. One flap had venous occlusion and after exploration and further treatment, a necrosis occurred in 1 lobe of the lobulated flap and then a free flap transfer was performed again. All the wounds achieved stage-I healing. Postoperative follow-up lasted for 3-18 months with 8.6 months in average. All flaps had good colour and texture, satisfactory appearance and only linear scars remained in the donor sites, without pain and scar contracture. The reconstructed upper extremity defect were evaluated according to the Evaluation Standard of Upper Limb Partial Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association, with 4 patients were in excellent and 2 in good. The reconstructed lower extremity defects were evaluated according to the LEM, and 2 patients were in excellent and 1 in good.Conclusion:The self-designed wound measurement grid was successfully applied in the design of lobed perforator flaps. It can accurately measure a wound surface and quickly extract a wound profile, and it is more convenient and intuitive to guide the design of flaps. It has a good effect in clinical application and further clinical trials are required.

Five new racemic N-acetyldopamine (NADA) trimers, asponchimides A-E (1-5), were isolated from Aspongopus chinensis, a prominent traditional Chinese medicinal insect employed for alleviating pain, treating indigestion, and addressing kidney ailments. Compounds 1-5 were successfully resolved by chiral high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), yielding five pairs of enantiomers: (+)- and (-)-asponchimides A-E (1a/1b-5a/5b). Their structural identities were discerned by extensive spectroscopic analyses, including high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS), ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy, infrared (IR) spectroscopy, and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and their absolute configurations were determined by electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations. Compounds 1-5 are pioneering instances of NADA trimers featuring a Δ⁷ double bond. When subjected to a series of bioassays, a majority of the compounds exhibited weak inhibitory activity against nitric oxide (NO) production in LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells.

Objective    To analyze the clinical efficacy of right minithoracotomy approach in the treatment of patients with regurgitation after left-sided valve surgery (LSVS). Methods    The clinical data of 77 patients who suffered tricuspid regurgitation (TR) after LSVS and received surgical treatment in the Heart Center of Henan Provincial People's Hospital from 2012 to 2019 were selected. According to the operation method, the patients were divided into a right minithoracotomy group (n=32), including 13 (40.6%) males, aged 57.3±5.3 years and a median sternotomy group (n=45), including 17 (37.8%) males, aged 55.7±6.6 years. Preoperative and postoperative clinical data of the two groups were compared and analyzed. Results    There was no significant difference in preoperative data between the two groups. There were 24 patients of tricuspid valvuloplasty (TVP) and 8 patients of tricuspid valve replacement (TVR) in the right minithoracotomy group. There were 29 patients of TVP and 16 patients of TVR in the median sternotomy group. The operation time, postoperative hospitalization time, intubation time and ICU stay time of the right minithoracotomy group were shorter than those of the median sternotomy group (P<0.001). The operative bleeding, postoperative drainage in 24 hours, postoperative blood transfusion rate and incision poor healing of the right minithoracotomy group were significantly decreased compared with those of the median sternotomy group (P<0.05). The extracorporeal circulation time between the two groups was not significantly different (P=0.382). The postoperative complications and mortality of the righ minithoracotomy group were significantly lower than those of the median sternotomy group (P<0.05). Conclusion    The procedure of right minithoracotomy access can reduce perioperative morbidity and mortality compared with the median sternotomy, and results in satisfied clinical efficacy.

Objective:To investigate the surgical method and clinical effect in the repair of thumb tip defect with radial thenar fasciocutaneous flap.Methods:From March, 2016 to January, 2019, 15 patients with thumb tip defect were treated by radial thenar fasciocutaneous flap. There were 6 defects in left thumb and 9 in right thumb. All the thumbtip defects had the exposure of digital bone, and some had defects of digital bone itself. The size of defects ranged from 1.0 cm×2.0 cm to 1.5 cm×3.0 cm, and the size of the flaps ranged from 1.2 cm×2.5 cm to 1.8 cm×4.0 cm. All of the donor sites were directly closed. The patients entered follow-up by outpatient visit, telephone calls or WeChat reviews to evaluate the quality of the flaps and the clinical effects of the surgery.Results:All flaps survived with good quality. All the donor sites achieved primary healing. The follow-ups lasted for 6 to 18 months with an average of 10.5 months. At the final follow-up review, the appearance of flaps was satisfactory in natural colour, flexible and wear-resistant. There were various degrees of sensation recovery of the flaps, with TPD from 6 mm to 12 mm. The sensation around the donor site was close to normal. Function of the thumbs was evaluated according to the total active movement (TAM) evaluation system. Twelve thumbs were graded excellent and 3 in good.Conclusion:The radial thenar fasciocutaneous flap achieved satisfactory clinical effect in the repair of thumb tip defect. The texture of the flaps is close to the recipient site and the damage to the donor site is minimal.

Objective:To investigate the application values of bone marrow morphology, bone marrow immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) and cytogenetic testing in newly diagnosed multiple myeloma.Methods:A total of 280 patients with multiple myeloma who were newly diagnosed in Tianjin KingMed Diagnosis Center from September 2018 to August 2019 were collected. The bone marrow biopsy was carried out according to the routine method, and bone marrow morphology, bone marrow immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry immunophenotyping, FISH and cytogenetic testing were performed. The detection results of each method were compared.Results:In 280 patients, the bone marrow immunohistochemistry results showed that the median ratio of plasma cells was higher than those of bone marrow morphology (20 cases, 0.675 vs. 0.300) and flow cytometry (47 cases, 0.650 vs. 0.147), and the differences were statistically significant ( Z = -3.883, P < 0.01; Z = -5.947, P < 0.01). Flow cytometry results showed that the positive rates of CD38, CD138, κ, λ, CD56 and CD19 were 100.0% (280/280), 100.0% (280/280), 57.5% (161/280), 42.5% (119/280), 62.1% (174/280) and 19.3% (54/280); bone marrow immunohistochemistry results showed that the positive rates of CD38, CD138, κ, λ and CD56 were 98.9% (277/280), 98.2% (275/280), 57.5% (161/280), 42.5% (119/280) and 62.1% (174/280); there was no statistical difference between the two detection methods in the detection coincidence rate of the same detection index (all P > 0.05). Among patients who underwent FISH detection, the detection rate of gene abnormalities was 69.9% (93/133); the detection rate of abnormalities by direct fluorescence in situ hybridization (D-FISH) was 42.9% (57/133); the detection rate of abnormalities by CD138 immunomagnetic sorting myeloma cells (MACS)-FISH was 82.7% (110/133). Among patients who underwent G-band karyotyping, the detection rate of abnormal karyotype was 38.5% (85/221). FSIH, especially MACS-FISH, had a higher detection rate of cytogenetic abnormalities than G-band karyotyping, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 = 65.697, P < 0.05). Conclusion:The comprehensive application of bone marrow morphology, bone marrow immunohistochemistry, flow cytometry, FISH (especially MACS-FISH), cytogenetic testing and other detection methods is more helpful for the diagnosis of multiple myeloma, and may be useful for prognostic judgment.

Objective: To analyze the epidemiological characteristics and associated factors of delayed voiding among middle school students, and to provide the basis for health education. Methods: A total of 1 260 middle school students were selected from Sanmen country in Taizhou by using multi-stage stratified sampling method. A cross-sectional survey was conducted to investigate the demographic characteristics, epidemiological characteristics and associated factors of delayed voiding by questionnaire. Results: The proportion of frequent delayed voiding among middle school students was 14.37%(181). The proportion among senior high school students was 15.51%(90), and among junior high school students was 13.67%(91)，no significant differences were found by grade(χ2=0.57, P=0.45). The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that residential school, homework per day >2 hours, games and reduce the frequency of drinking ≥7 times/week were risk factors for delayed voiding frequently in junior high school students(OR=3.71, 1.70, 3.02,6.52，P<0.05). Higher than 2 hours of daily homework, a supportive or indifferent attitude to delayed voiding, staying in bed after waking up, drinking <0.5 L/d or ≥2.0 L/d, and reduce the frequency of drinking ≥7 times/week were risk factors for delayed voiding behavior in high school students(OR=2.23, 1.81, 2.22, 3.48, 2.69, 3.00, P<0.05). Conclusion The prevalence of frequent delayed voiding was high among middle school students. Attitude, environment and the quality of drinking water were the primary factors of frequent delayed voiding.
