Objective: To investigate the impact of RHAG 808A variant, commonly identified in the Chinese population, on RhAG protein, RhD and RhCE antigens expression through in vivo and in vitro expression analysis. Methods: A missense mutation of RHAG gene (c. 808G>A, p. Val270Ile) with high frequency was found in KMxD database. Bioinformatics analysis was performed using Polyphen-2 and Provean software. High resolution melting (HRM) method was utilized to screen for the variant carriers in the blood donors. The expression of RhAG protein, RhD and RhCE antigens on the surface of red cells of variant carriers were detected via flow cytometry. Wild-type and mutant vectors of RHAG were constructed and transfected into HEK 293T cells for in vitro expression analysis. Then, the expression of RhAG protein, RhD and RhCE antigens were analyzed by flow cytometry. Results: Polyphen-2 and Provean software suggested that the amino acid change (p. Val270Ile) of RhAG protein may be harmful or neutral respectively. Among the 999 blood donors from Guangzhou Blood Center, 4 homozygous carriers and 99 heterozygous carriers of RHAG 808A mutant allele were identified. The frequency of this allele was 5.4% (107/1 998). No significant differences in RhAG protein, RhD and RhCE antigens expression level was identified between the homozygous carriers, heterozygous carriers of RHAG 808A variant allele and the wild-type individuals. In vitro analysis for antigen expression study obtained the similar results. Conclusion: The RHAG 808A variant allele commonly identified in the Chinese population has no effect on the expression of RhAG protein, RhD and RhCE antigens, so the variant should be a population polymorphism site.

【Objective】 To identify the specificity of alloantibody against high-frequency antigens in one case suffering with severe hemolytic diseases of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) and to screen for matching blood for transfusion. 【Methods】 The HDFN test and the antibody serological identification tests in the mother were performed. Several common high frequency antigens of maternal red blood cells (RBCs) were determined. IgG subtype coated on the RBCs of the newborn was determined. The phagocytic efficiency of the antibody was tested using the monocyte phagocytosis of sensitized erythrocyte by flow cytometry in vitro. Sanger sequencing of DI gene was performed in the mother, father and mother’s brother. The diluted maternal plasma was used for large scale screening of matching blood using IAT in Coomb’s gel card. 【Results】 Di(b-) phenotype was identified in the mother of the newborn and anti-Di^b (titer: 512) related HDN was detected in the newborn. IgG1 and IgG2 subtypes of anti-Di^b were detected and the rate of monocyte phagocytosis was 88.83%(74.7/84.09). The compatible blood was not detected in the maternal relatives. Subsequently, the newborn received the matching RBCs of two Di(b-) donors identified from 5 520 blood donors and discharged from the hospital. We screened out 17 Di(b-) donors out of 51 334 blood donors, indicating that the distribution frequency of Di(b-) among blood donors in Guangzhou was about 0.033% (17/51 334). 【Conclusion】 By serology and molecular biology methods, the newborn was identified with HDFN caused by anti-Di^b, and an effective large-scale screening method for Di (b -) rare blood types was established to find matching blood, which supported the establishment of rare Di(b-) blood database.

Objective To investigate the function and clinical significance of nuclear matrix binding region binding protein 1(SATB1)and epidermal growth factor receptor(EGFR)in gastric cancer.Methods The expression of SATB1 and EGFR was detected by immunohistochemistry in 60 cases of paraffin-embedded gastric cancer and 39 cases of gastric mucosal inflammation.Small interfering RNA(siRNA)was transfected into gastric cancer cells.The expression of SATB1 and EGFR after transfection was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-qPCR)and Western blot.The cell migration and invasion changes of MGC803 after transfection were detected by cell scratch test and Transwell test.The prognosis of gastric cancer pa-tients with different SATB1 and EGFR expression was analyzed by KM survival analysis.Results The expression of SATB1 and EGFR in gastric cancer tissues was higher than that in gastric mucosa inflammation tissues,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The expression of SATB1 was correlated with lymph node metas-tasis and distant metastasis of gastric cancer,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).EGFR ex-pression was also associated with distant metastasis,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).There was a positive correlation between the expression of SATB1 and EGFR in gastric cancer tissues(r=0.49,P＜0.05).RT-qPCR and Western blot showed that siRNA could effectively knock down the expression of SATB1 and EGFR in gastric cancer cells.The results of cell scratch and Transwell experiments showed that the migration and invasion of gastric cancer cells were inhibited by knocking down SATB1 and EGFR.The results of KM survival curve showed that gastric cancer patients with low expression of SATB1 had a better prognosis,while those with low expression of EGFR had a better prognosis.Conclusion The expression levels of SATB1 and EGFR are closely re-lated to lymph node metastasis and distant metastasis of gastric cancer,and decreasing the expression levels of SATB1 and EGFR can inhibit the migration and invasion of gastric cancer.

Objective To elucidate the prediction ability of monocyte monolayer assay(MMA)used in hemolytic dis-ease of fetus and newborn(HDFN)caused by IgG anti-M.Methods Plasma from eight pregnant women containing IgG an-ti-M were collected,and were divided into two groups(4 cases with HDFN,with severe clinical symptoms such as fetal hy-drops,and 4 cases without HDFN)according to the clinical outcomes.M antigen positive cells were sensitized with dithioth-reitol(DTT)treated plasma from eight pregnant women respectively.MMA was performed by coincubation with monocytes and sensitized M cells,along with negative and positive control set up.T-test was conducted to compare the difference in phagocytic efficiency between two groups.Results The phagocytic efficiency in group with HDFN were 15.37%,13.05%,9.17%and 24.50%respectively,with the mean value of 15.52%,while the group without HDFN were 8.74%,11.07%,5.12%and 6.23%respectively,with the mean value of 7.79%.There was no significant difference in phagocytic efficiency between two groups(P>0.05).The mean values of both groups were not significantly different from the negative control(P>0.05),but both were significantly lower than positive control(P<0.05).Conclusion The low phagocytic efficiency couldn't convince that the MMA is an effective predictor for the HDFN caused by IgG anti-M,indicating that another mech-anism might be responsible for it rather than monocyte phagocytosis.The assessment of the peak systolic velocity in middle cerebral artery of the fetal should be considered in the management for pregnant women who produce IgG anti-M to estimate the situation of fetal anemia.

Objective To evaluate the effect of centralized procurement of artificial joint consumables on total arthro-plasty placement surgery.Methods Through a retrospective study,t-test was conducted on the medical quality and effi-ciency,hospitalization cost per time structure through July-December,2021 to July-December,2022 centralized pro-curement of joint replacement surgery in a tertiary hospital in Shanghai.Results After centralized procurement,the amount of knee arthroplasty surgery decreased,and the time of hip replacement surgery was increased,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).The total cost,cost of consumables,arthrotomy fee of the two types of arthroplasty surgery were significantly decreased,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).In addition,the average cost of other consumables hospitalization of knee joint surgery patient increased,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion After centralized procurement of artificial joint consumables,the cost of total knee arthroplasty and total hip arthroplasty has decreased significantly,and the quality and efficiency of medical care have not changed significantly.At the same time,hospital managers should pay more attention to the rational use of consumables after centralized procurement.In addition,it calls for increasing the price of surgery to reflect the value of physician services.

Objective This study aims to assess the clinical value of sputum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid examination combined with acid-fast bacilli detection to provide a reference for the diagnosis and treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis.Methods We collected and analyzed relevant test data from patients who underwent smear and/or isolation of sputum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid for acid-fast bacilli or Mycobacterium detection within the same week from January 2021 to July 2021.The test results'similarities and differences were analyzed.Results Of the 272 patients,the positive rates of sputum smear,alveolar lavage fluid smear,sputum isolation,alveolar lavage fluid isolation(hereinafter referred to as"A""B""C"and"D")were 14.71％(40/272),19.49％(53/272),25.00％(67/268)and 31.90％(74/232),respectively.The positive rate of the four tests as parallel tests was 37.50％(102/272).The result modes of A+C+,A-C+,A+C-,A-C-and A-CN(the"+""-"and"N"in the super-script stood for"positive""negative"and"undetected")accounted for 14.71％(40/272),13.97％(38/272),0,69.85％(190/272),1.47％(4/272)respectively,and the result modes of B+D+,B-D+,B+D-,B-D-and B-DN accounted for 19.12％(52/272),8.82％(24/272),0.37％(1/272),56.99％(155/272),14.71％(40/272).The percentages of these re-sult modes of A+B+,A+B-,A-B+and A-B-were 14.71％(40/272),0,4.78％(13/272),80.51％(219/272),respec-tively.The percentages of these result modes of A+D+,A+D-,A+DN,A-D+,A-D-,A-DN,AND+,AND-and ANDN were 19.12％(52/272),5.51％(15/272),4.04(11/272),8.09％(22/272),51.74％(140/272),10.29％(28/272),0.74％(2/272),0.37％(1/272),and 0.37％(1/272),respectively.Conclusion Compared with more common sputum tes-ting,for acid-fast bacteria,performing bronchoalveolar lavage fluid testing for acid-fast bacteria in alveolar lavage fluid can signifi-cantly improve etiological diagnostic performance for tuberculosis,which is worth promoting extensively in clinical practice.

【Objective】 To solve the difficulty of RhD blood group typing in a patient with double population(DP) of red blood cells for RhD antigen by serological and genotyping analysis. 【Methods】 Separation of the two populations of red blood cells of the patient was performed using capillary centrifugation method. ABO, RhD and RhCE typing, direct anti-human globulin test (DAT), irregular antibody screening, antibody identification and blood crossmatching of the patient were conducted using the standard serological methods. The hybrid Rhesus zygosity analysis of the RHD gene was performed by PCR-RFLP method. RHD and RHCE genotype of the patients were identified by PCR-SSP method. 【Results】 The patient was B type but with DP of red blood cells for RhD, Rhc and RhE antigens. DAT of the patient was positive and the alloanti-D was detected in serum. The RHD zygosity was D-/D- homozygote. PCR-SSP testing showed the RHD gene deletion (RHD * 01N. 01/01N.01 genotype) and Ccee of RHCE genotype in the patient, which was consistent with RHD zygosity analysis. 【Conclusion】 This is a special case with D-negative phenotype which was wrongly detected as D-positive type after D-positive red blood cells transfusion in emergency. When the DP of red cells for D antigen encountered like this case, the RhD typing can be accurately determined by using RHD genotyping analysis to provide strong evidence to the clinical blood transfusion.

The paper reported a case of a young male patient, with graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) multi-organ involvement lesions after allo-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. The patient had diverse clinical manifestations, and overlapping acute and chronic disease processes. Acute GVHD were mainly hyperbilirubinemia, with or without elevated transaminase, bloody watery stools; chronic GVHD were highlighted by extensive skin depigmentation, oral mucosal ulcer, sick nails, etc., and chronic signs, such as membranous nephropathy, polyserositis and pulmonary restrictive ventilatory insufficiency. The diagnosis of chronic GVHD mainly relies on medical history combined with clinical manifestations, and it's needed to exclude infections, drugs and tumors. Besides, the rate of missed diagnosis and misdiagnose is high, and it requires multidisciplinary diagnosis and treatment. Combined with the literature review, it indicates that there is a greater risk of GVHD in the male recipient with female donor, and peripheral blood stem cell transplant patients have a higher incidence than bone marrow transplant patients after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, but the effect of the graft-versus-leukemia exists. Currently, glucocorticoids therapy with or without calcineurin inhibitors are the first-line treatment for GVHD, but the overall prognosis is poor.

【Objective】 To identify the antibody specificity in a pregnant women who had no history of blood transfusion but presented the antibodies against high-frequency antigens. 【Methods】 ABO, RhD blood group antigens were identified by saline. Antibody screening and identification were performed by saline and indirect Coomb’s technique. Further antibody identification tests were conducted using papain, trypsin and chymotrypsin-treated cells. Antibody titer in serum was tested. PCR amplification and sequencing analysis of 16 exons of ABCG2 gene were conducted. 【Results】 The blood type of the patient were B, RhD positive. The serum reacted with antibody screening/identified cells by indirect antiglobin test(both 2+ ) but not by saline. The agglutination was enhanced after papain treatment (4+ ), but remained unchanged after trypsin and chymotrypsin treatment (2+ ). The IgG titer was 1∶2. The sequencing analysis of ABCG2 gene revealed a homozygous nonsense mutation(c.376C>T, p. Gln126X) in exon 4 of the women. 【Conclusion】 In this case, the development of anti-Jr^a in Jr(a-) mother was stimulated by mother-child serology incompatibility during pregnancy.
