ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the molecular biological mechanism of Bw07 allele and its transferase alteration carried by a proband of ABw07 subtype.Methods:A 2-year-old male child was selected as the research object. The peripheral blood of the proband and his parents was identified for ABO blood type by the test tube method, and the ABO subgroup PCR-SSP detection and ABO gene sequencing were performed on the three individuals to determine their blood type genotypes. Finally, the effect of the p.Arg352Gln mutation on Bw07 transferase was verified by virtual mutation, DUET structure prediction, molecular dynamics analysis, and in vitro cellular experiments.Results:The serological phenotypes of the proband and his mother were ABw and Bw, respectively, while his father was normal A. The ABO subgroup PCR-SSP assay identified the three genotypes as Bw07/A, Bw07/O, and A/A, respectively.Sanger sequencing further verified that the proband and his mother carried the Bw07 gene, and virtual mutation showed that the intermolecular forces were weakened by the R352Q mutation. DUET predicted that this p.Arg352Gln mutation could affect the thermodynamic stability of Bw07 transferase. Molecular dynamics analysis confirmed that the alteration of thermodynamic stability was mainly related to the appearance of large fluctuations in the amino acid backbone atoms in the 125-133, 193-198 and 336-354 regions, and in vitro cellular experiments further verified the weakened antigen synthesis of Bw07 transferase.Conclusion:The formation of the ABw07 phenotype is associated with the mutation of the highly conserved Arg352 to Gln in Bw07 transferase.
ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To statistically analyze the perioperative results of patients with ABO-incompatible kidney transplantation (ABOi-KT), in order to explore the changes in blood group antibody of type-A/B recipients. 【Methods】 A total of 33 cases of blood group A/B ABOi-KT recipients in our hospital from January 2021 to October 2023 were recruited and divided into two groups of group A(n=18) and group B(n=15) according to the different blood types of recipient. The effects of preoperative plasmapheresis on antibody titer, antibody rebound and renal function after operation(serum urea nitrogen, creatinine and estimated glomerular filtration rate on the 1st, 3rd, 7th and 14th day) were analyzed between the two groups. According to the postoperative rebound of blood type antibodies, 33 recipients were divided into antibody rebound group(n=7) and non rebound group(n=26), and the differences in initial blood type antibody titers between the two groups were analyzed. 【Results】 There was no significant difference in the clearance rate of IgM with preoperative plasma exchange between the two groups (Z=-0.26, P>0.05); Levels of serum urea nitrogen and creatinine on the 1st, 3rd, 7th and 14th day after operation between group A and group B were not statistically significant(P>0.05), the same as eGFR. Group B was more prone to rebound antibody compared with group A (P0.05) between the two groups was found. 【Conclusion】 The patients type B receiving type AB kidney donors are more prone to rebound antibody after ABOi-KT operation compared to the the patients type A receiving type AB.

Objective:To investigate the synchronized feature patterns of local field potentials in the hippocampus (HPC) and prefrontal cortex (PFC) during working memory based on time-varying spectral coherence so as to support the study of information processing mechanisms in working memory.Methods:The local field potentials (LFPs) signals of the ventral hippocampus (vHPC) and medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) were collected from six SD rats during the performance of a spatial working memory task in the Y-maze, and the time-frequency distributions of vHPC and mPFC LFPs were calculated by applying the short-time Fourier transform (STFT) to determine the characteristic frequency bands of the working memory and then to investigate the synchronized patterns of vHPC and mPFC LFPs based on the coherent of the time-varying frequency spectrum. Finally, support vector machines were applied to explore the feasibility of applying spectral coherence values to predict working memory.Results:When rats performed working memory tasks correctly, the energy of the theta band (4 - 12 Hz) of the HPC and PFC increased (all P < 0.01), and the spectral coherence value of the theta band of the HPC-PFC increased ( P < 0.05). Support vector machine training and prediction using the average peak spectral coherence and the difference between the peak and the onset when correctly and incorrectly executing the working memory as features resulted in 89% accuracy, 90% precision, 88% recall, and 88% F1 scores, all of which were statistically significant differences compared to the results of the randomly disrupted labeled data rearranging (all P < 0.05). Conclusions:Synchronized synergy in the HPC-PFC theta band is one of the potential mechanisms for correctly performing information processing in working memory.
ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To analyze ABO system hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) and its influencing factors in Obstetrics Department of our hospital. 【Methods】 The blood samples of 1 040 neonates and their mothers in the obstetric department of our hospital were retrospectively analyzed from September 2022 to January 2023, including ABO and RhD blood group of the neonates and mothers, as well as 3 tests of HDFN, Hb, total bilirubin (TBIL) and indirect bilirubin(IBIL) of the neonates. Relevant clinical data of the neonates and mothers were collected, including maternal and neonatal age, neonatal sex, maternal pregnancy history, gestational age and delivery mode, and their influences on ABO-HDFN were analyzed. 【Results】 Among 1 040 HDFN samples, 298 were ABO incompatibility, among which 113 were HDFN positive, with a positive rate of 37.9% (113/298); the positive rate of HDFN in neonates born to mothers with type O was significantly higher than that in neonates born to mothers with type A and B (71.4% vs 8.2%, P<0.05); the positive rate of HDFN in neonates with antigen-A incompatibility was significantly higher than that in neonates with antigen-B incompatibility (48.7%vs 26.7%, P<0.05), which was the highest in neonates with O-A incompatibility [83.6% (61/73)], followed by O-B incompatibility [58.2% (39/67)]. There was no significant difference in Hb and bilirubin among the other groups except for the difference of Hb between the O-A incompatibility HDFN positive group and the HDFN negative group [(145.0±16.0) vs(153.4±13.2), P<0.05)]. The levels of Hb, TBIL and IBIL in the "direct antiglobulin test+ indirect antiglobulin test+release test+" group were significantly different from those in the HDFN negative group[(144.9±21.6) vs (153.3±13.2), P <0.05; (36.9±11.8) vs (29.6±6.1), P<0.05; (30.6±12.7) vs (23.0±6.9), P<0.05, respectively]. Logistic regression analysis showed that maternal delivery frequency, mother-neonate incompatible antigen and maternal blood type were independent risk factors for HDFN. 【Conclusion】 ABO-HDFN occurred mainly in neonates born to O-type mothers, and the positive rate was the highest in neonates with O-A incompatibility. The severity of HDFN had little relationship with the mother-neonate blood type, but had relationship with the result of 3 tests of HDFN. Maternal delivery frequency, mother-neonate incompatible antigen and maternal blood type were independent risk factors for HDFN.
ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To analyze the yield, specificity and detection time of red blood cell(RBC)alloimmunization in 104 588 inpatients. 【Methods】 The clinical information of patients who underwent at least one antibody screening in our hospital from November 2017 to December 2019 was retrospectively analyzed. The demographic characteristics, transfusion history, pregnancy history and antibody screening results of patients were collected. The RBC alloantibody yield, specificity and detection time were analyzed, and differences of transfusion units and frequency between patients with and without alloimmunization were compared. 【Results】 Eight hundred cases of alloantibodies with clinical significance were detected in blood samples of 723 patients, with a positive rate of 0.7% (723/104 588). The incidence rate of alloimmunization in females was higher than that in males (0.9% vs 0.5%, P<0.05). Rh alloantibodies accounted for 76.4%(611/800), of which 61.4%(375/611)were anti-E. Transfusion units and frequency of patients with alloimmunity were higher than those without(median: 6.0 vs 4.0, P<0.05; 4.0 vs 2.0, P<0.05, respectively). And 67.5% of RBC alloantibodies were detected within 6 months, with the median (IQR) detection time of 97.0 (22.5-247.0) days. 【Conclusion】 Routine antibody screening should be performed before transfusion in order to reduce the occurrence of adverse reactions, and Rh typing transfusion with compatible crossmatch should be performed if necessary.

Myocardial ischemia (MI) causes somatic referred pain and sympathetic hyperactivity, and the role of sensory inputs from referred areas in cardiac function and sympathetic hyperactivity remain unclear. Here, in a rat model, we showed that MI not only led to referred mechanical hypersensitivity on the forelimbs and upper back, but also elicited sympathetic sprouting in the skin of the referred area and C8-T6 dorsal root ganglia, and increased cardiac sympathetic tone, indicating sympathetic-sensory coupling. Moreover, intensifying referred hyperalgesic inputs with noxious mechanical, thermal, and electro-stimulation (ES) of the forearm augmented sympathetic hyperactivity and regulated cardiac function, whereas deafferentation of the left brachial plexus diminished sympathoexcitation. Intradermal injection of the α2 adrenoceptor (α2AR) antagonist yohimbine and agonist dexmedetomidine in the forearm attenuated the cardiac adjustment by ES. Overall, these findings suggest that sensory inputs from the referred pain area contribute to cardiac functional adjustment via peripheral α2AR-mediated sympathetic-sensory coupling.

ABSTRACT
Objective:To observe the effect of gait training assisted by an end-effector-based robot on the gait, balance, walking and general lower limb motor functioning of stroke survivors.Methods:Thirty-nine stroke survivors were randomized into a training group ( n=21) and a control group ( n=18). In addition to routine hemiplegia rehabilitation, the control group was given medium frequency electrical stimulation while the training group underwent 20 minutes of gait training assisted by an end-effector-based robot six days a week for 4 weeks. Before and after the intervention, both groups were evaluated using the functional ambulatory categories (FAC), the Fugl-Meyer lower extremity assessment, the Wisconsin Gait Scale and the Berg balance scale (BBS). Results:There were no significant differences between the groups before the intervention. Afterward significant improvement was observed in both groups in all measurements, with the training group scored better in terms of FAC and BBS.Conclusion:Using an end-effector-based robot in gait training might be more advantageous for improving the gait, balance, walking and general lower limb functioning of stroke survivors.
ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To explore the impact of monoclonal anti-CD47(IBI188) on clinical pre-transfusion testing and its solutions, then compare it with monoclonal anti-CD38, so as to develop safe and rational transfusion strategies. 【Methods】 The blood typing, direct antiglobulin testing(DAT) and antibody screening were conducted by standard methods. Red blood cells(RBCs) were treated with fig protease, papain, trypsin and dithiothreitol(DTT) to observe whether the effect of monoclonal anti-CD47 could be eliminated. Cord RBCs and RBCs with different Rh phenotypes were cross-matched; Plasma samples were adsorbed with papain-treated O allogeneic RBCs. 【Results】 ABO reverse typing were affected by monoclonal anti-CD47 treatment, and all serum antibody screening were positive, and their DAT were negative or weakly positive. Neither enzyme nor DTT could weaken the effect of monoclonal anti-CD47 on antibody screening. In saline cross-matching, differences in agglutination intensity were corresponded to differences in CD47 expression on RBCs, but all RBCs agglutinated 2+ to 4+ by polybrene method and anti-human globulin method. Papain treated allogeneic RBCs can remove the monoclonal anti-CD47 in the serum through 3 to 4 rounds of absorption. 【Conclusion】 Monoclonal anti-CD47 interferes with pre-transfusion testing, which can be removed by allogeneic RBCs absorption(not suitable for antibody screening or cross-matching), but not by enzyme or DTT. Blood typing and antibody screening should be conducted before monoclonal anti-CD47 treatment and patients should be transfused with homozygous matched RBCs.
ABSTRACT
【Objective】 To explore a simple method to remove the interference of monoclonal anti-CD38 from compatibility testing and evaluate its effectiveness and safety, in order to develop a reasonable clinical transfusion strategy. 【Methods】 Blood phenotype detection, direct antiglobulin testing(DAT) and antibody screening were carried out by standard methods. Antibody screening and cross-matching of serums after monoclonal anti-CD38 treatment were performed by anti-human globulin card with 0.2 mol/L or 0.04 mol/L dithiothreitol(DTT) treated red blood cells. 【Results】 The results showed that 0.04 mol/L DTT treated directly in the anti-human globulin card for 15 min can completely remove the interference of monoclonal anti-CD38 in antibody screening and cross-matching without compromising of the yielding of anti-K, anti-LW, anti-JMH and anti-Lub alloantibodies. However, the titer of IgM antibodies may decrease in different degrees, and antibody screening and cross-matching with saline methods are required to avoid the missed detection of IgM alloantibodies. All 12 patients had no acute or delayed haemolytic transfusion reactions and their routine blood tests showed that the red blood cells transfusion were effective. 【Conclusion】 Based on antibody screening and cross-matching plus saline method, the method of 0.04 mol/L DTT, treated directly in the anti-human globulin card, is safe, effective and simple, which can detect most alloantibodies.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the application of statistical methods in clinical research articles of oncology in China. Methods The core journals in Chinese oncology journals were retrieved in "Wanfang Data", and the application of statistical methods in the clinical research articles published in the first issue of 2017 were analyzed,including the selection of statistical indicators,the selection of statistical methods and the interpretation of statistical results. Results A total of 176 clinical research articles from 24 journals were taken into the study.In the selection of statistical indicators, 12.6 %(16 articles) used the description method of normal distribution data for the skewness distribution measurement data; 37.9 % (47 articles) described the count data with samples<20 as a percentage; 14.5 % (9 articles) replaced the constituent percentages with composition ratios. In the selection of statistical methods, 10.3 % (12 articles) did not perform analysis of variance when comparing among multiple groups, and the t test was used to compare each other directly. 15.1 % (8 articles) disregarded the preconditions of the use of the χ 2test. In the interpretation of statistical results, 18.4 % (27 articles) confused the statistical significance with biological significance. Conclusions The statistical problems are widespread in Chinese oncology clinical research articles,involving the entire process from study design to interpretation of results. Scientific research management departments, clinical researchers, and journal editorial board need to work together to improve the scientificity of clinical scientific research results of oncology in China.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To identify a rare subtype of the ABO blood group system and explore its molecular basis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Based on a standard serological assay, ABO subtype and haplotype were analyzed through PCR amplification of the 7 exons and adjacent introns of the ABO gene and TA clone sequencing.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Forward typing showed a B type, while reverse typing demonstrated an extremely weak anti-B on routine gel analysis, which indicated a forward and reverse typing discrepancy. Absorption-elution testing confirmed that there was no A antigen on the surface of patient's red blood cells. Sequencing of the ABO gene showed a G>A exchange at position 523 in exon 7, which resulted in a Val to Met substitution at codon 175. Clone sequencing of the amplificons of the ABO gene showed an ABO* Bw14/O01 heterozygote genotype.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Molecular method is useful for the identification of ambiguous blood groups. A 523G>A substitution of the ABO gene resulting in a Bw14 subtype probably underlies the weak B phenotype noted in the patient.</p>

ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the risk of locoregional recurrence ( LRR ) and role of radiotherapy for patients with estrogen receptor?negative and human epidermal growth factor receptor 2?overexpressed ( Rec?/HER?2+) locally advanced breast cancer ( LABC ) . Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 294 patients with Rec?/HER?2+LABC from 1999 to 2011. All patients were treated with modified radical mastectomy ( MRM ) . Of them, 239 patients received postmastectomy radiotherapy and 55 patients did not. Locoregional recurrence?free survival ( LRRFS) and overall survival ( OS) , as well as LRR, were compared between the two groups. The Kaplan?Meier method was used to estimate survival and recurrence rates, and the log?rank test was used for survival difference analysis and univariate prognostic analysis. Multivariate prognostic analysis was performed using the Cox regression model. Results The 5?year sample size was 162. Fifty?six patients developed LRR. The 5?year LRRFS and OS rates were 79. 7% and 70. 0%, respectively. Postmastectomy radiotherapy significantly increased the 5?year LRRFS rate ( 85. 1% vs. 56. 0%, P=0. 000) , but did not significantly increase the 5?year OS rate ( 71. 3% vs. 64. 2%, P= 0. 441 ) . Multivariate analysis indicated that postmastectomy radiotherapy was the only independent prognostic factor associated with increased LRRFS ( RR=0. 303, 95% CI:0. 166?0. 554, P=0. 000). Conclusions Patients with Rec?/HER?2+ LABC treated with MRM alone appear to be at a significantly increased risk of LRR compared with those treated with MRM followed by radiotherapy.
