In May 2025, the Association for the Advancement of Blood and Biotherapies (AABB) and the International Collaboration for Transfusion Medicine Guidelines (ICTMG) jointly released the updated Guidelines for Platelet Transfusion. Based on 21 Randomized Clinical Trials (RCTs) and 13 high-quality observational studies, the guideline adopted the Grading of Recommendations Assessment Development and Evaluation (GRADE) system for evidence analysis, and established the "restrictive platelet transfusion strategy" as the core, aiming to promote the standardization and homogenization of global platelet transfusion practices. The guideline has a wide scope of application, covering different populations such as adults, children, and neonates, including patients with hematological diseases, stem cell transplant recipients, perioperative patients, dengue fever patients, and those undergoing invasive procedures. It sets minimal important differences (MIDs) thresholds for three key outcomes—mortality (2%), grade 2-4 bleeding (20%), and grade 3-4 bleeding (5%)—for evidence certainty grading. In terms of key recommendations, it clarifies strong recommendations with high/moderate certainty of evidence (e.g., transfusion for patients with non-bleeding thrombocytopenia undergoing chemotherapy or allogeneic stem cell transplantation when platelet count<10×10 ⁹/L; transfusion for neonates with consumptive thrombocytopenia without severe bleeding when count<25×10 ⁹/L; no transfusion for dengue fever patients without major bleeding, etc.) and conditional recommendations with low/very low certainty of evidence (e.g., conditional non-recommendation of prophylactic transfusion for adult patients undergoing autologous stem cell transplantation; conditional transfusion for adult patients undergoing central venous catheterization when count<10×10 ⁹/L, etc.). Meanwhile, it elaborates on common platelet transfusion reactions and their risks, such as allergic reactions, febrile reactions, and transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI). By lowering transfusion thresholds and refining risk stratification, the guideline can reduce unnecessary transfusions and related adverse reactions, and alleviate the shortage of platelet resources. In the future, it is necessary to further supplement evidence-based evidence in fields such as cardiopulmonary bypass and interventional radiology, and explore technologies like in vitro induced differentiation of platelets and universal engineered platelets to optimize transfusion practices.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy and adverse reactions of CSP in patients with surgical hemorrhage. Methods A prospective, double-blind, randomized clinical trial was conducted on surgical patients with related bleeding to assess the hemostatic function of CSP compared with RTP. The primary outcomes measured were drainage volume, platelet counts, and Thrombelastography-maximum amplitude. Secondary outcomes included hospital stays, the intensive care unit stays and medical cost. Results A total of 62 patients were completed the final clinical observation. There were 31 cases in each of the CSP group and RTP group. Within 1~12 hours, 13~24 hours, 25~48 hours, and 49~72 hours after platelet transfusion, drainage volume: 8.5 mL/h vs 20.83 mL/h, 0.52 mL/h vs 5.0 mL/h, 3.5 mL/h vs 5.0 mL/h, 0.63 mL/h vs 4.1 mL/h. platelet counts: 58×10 ⁹/L vs 79×10 ⁹/L, 54×10 ⁹/L vs 77×10 ⁹/L, 63×10 ⁹/L vs 75×10 ⁹/L, 66×10 ⁹/L vs 79×10 ⁹/L. TEG-MA: 50.1 mm vs 52.0 mm, 50.1 mm vs 54.8 mm, 53.0 mm vs 56.6, 56.0 mm vs 53.2 mm. There were no overall differences between the two groups by Generalized Estimating Equations at different times ( P _Drainage=0.933, P _PLTcounts=0.473, P _TEG-MA=0.246). The secondary outcomes (hospital stays, ICU stays, medical cost, discharge outcome) were no differences between the CSP group and RTP group ( P>0.05). There were no significant differences in adverse platelet transfusion events between the groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion CSP and RTP have equivalent efficacy and safety in the treatment of surgical hemorrhage. This trial provides reliable evidence to support the clinical application of CSP.

Objective To establish a human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) line with doxycycline-inducible, stable over-expression of human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) and investigate how hTERT affects iPSC differentiation into megakaryocytes (MKs), as well as their proliferative capacity. Methods A doxycycline-inducible dual-vector encoding hTERT was transfected into human iPSCs. Stable clones were obtained via puromycin selection and single-colony expansion, and hTERT induction was verified by fluorescence microscopy, RT-qPCR, and Western blot. IPSCs differentiation into megakaryocytes was triggered by the spin-EB method; Flow cytometry, cell counting and microscopy were employed to assess the differentiation efficiency and proliferative capacity of hTERT-iPSCs, while ultrastructure, morphology and functional maturity of the generated megakaryocytes were evaluated by transmission electron microscopy, Wright-Giemsa staining and immunofluorescence. Results We successfully established a Dox-inducible hTERT-iPSC stable line. After Dox induction in vitro, the GFP positivity rate, hTERT mRNA ( P<0.05), and protein expression of hTERT-iPSCs were significantly upregulated. The cells differentiated from hTERT-iPSCs could be continuously cultured for up to 35 days, but the GFP positivity rate decreased in a time-dependent manner. Advancing the timing of Dox induction to day 8 of in vitro differentiation significantly promoted cell proliferation ( P<0.001) and maintained hTERT expression ( P<0.01). Morphological and functional assessments revealed no significant differences in the size, typical organelles, or platelet-like particle release of megakaryocytes generated from hTERT-iPSCs. Conclusion hTERT promotes the megakaryocytic differentiation of iPSCs in vitro. Initiating Dox induction on day 8 of differentiation effectively enhances the long-term proliferation of iPSC-derived megakaryocytes while maintaining their mature morphological characteristics and functions. This strategy provides a robust and scalable platform for in vitro production of megakaryocytes and platelets.

The big data of unexpected red blood cell antibody and Rh blood group distribution in Chinese population shows that the proportion of anti-RhCE antibody (41.94%) is 4.7 times higher than that of anti-RhD antibody (8.93%) among unexpected antibodies in hospitalized patients. In random blood transfusion, the probability of RhCE antigen mismatch (25.16%) is 51.4 times higher than that of RhD antigen mismatch (0.49%). These data indicate that RhCE antigen mismatch is the main risk for Chinese transfusion patients, and establishing RhCE antigen matching transfusion strategies suitable for Chinese patients is crucial for transfusion safety.

Objective To compare the effectiveness of the anti-human globulin microcolumn agglutination method and the traditional saline medium test tube method in detecting unexpected antibodies in red blood cells, and to explore the value of using both methods in parallel for antibody screening. Methods We retrospectively investigated 2 518 samples from the Shanghai Blood Center, which underwent unexpected antibody screening between January 2014 and December 2024. Our study focused on the detection of eight types of antibodies (anti-M, anti-Le ^a, anti-Mur, anti-Le ^b, anti-P ₁, anti-Di ^a, anti-Fy ^b, and anti-S) using the saline test tube method. Cases where both the saline medium test tube and the anti-human globulin microcolumn agglutination methods were used in parallel were selected for comparison. Data were analyzed using SPSS 22.0, and differences were assessed with McNemar's test (paired chi-square test). Results The detection rates for the antibodies were as follows: anti-M (96% by the saline method vs. 62% by the microcolumn method), anti-Le ^a (60% vs. 97% ), anti-Mur (60% vs. 97%), anti-Le ^b (84% vs. 70% ), anti-P ₁ (89% vs. 40%), anti-Di ^a (10% vs. 99% ), anti-Fy ^b (4% vs. 88% ), and anti-S (16% vs. 99% ). Conclusion The anti-human globulin microcolumn agglutination method outperforms the traditional saline medium test tube method in detecting most unexpected antibodies, offering advantages in automation and ease of use. However, the saline test tube method shows higher sensitivity for certain antibodies (e.g., anti-M and anti-P ₁), though the clinical significance of these antibodies remains unclear and warrants further investigation.

Objective To establish a detection process for drug-induced immune thrombocytopenia (DITP) caused by piperacillin-tazobactam sodium, and to provide timely diagnostic criteria for clinical diagnosis of DITP. Methods Platelet antibody screening was conducted using the solid-phase agglutination method. The solid-phase agglutination method was employed in the detection system to test for piperacillin-tazobactam sodium and omeprazole dependent platelet antibodies. In vitro red blood cell sensitization was performed using the anti-human globulin method to detect drug antibodies against piperacillin-tazobactam sodium on red blood cells. The patients were followed up at 1, 2, 5, and 8 days post drug withdrawal to investigate the potency of piperacillin-tazobactam sodium-dependent platelet drug antibodies and observe trends in platelet counts. Results A patient who received piperacillin-tazobactam sodium for 13 days experienced a significant decrease in platelet count and developed bleeding symptoms, which were attributed to the presence of piperacillin-tazobactam sodium-dependent platelet drug antibodies. Conclusion The solid-phase agglutination method incorporating piperacillin-tazobactam sodium can be utilized as a rapid diagnostic tool for detecting drug-dependent platelet antibodies.

With the development of high-throughput sequencing technology, the advancement of bioinformatics technology, transfer RNAderived small RNAshave received widespread attention as a novel type of non-coding small RNAs. Based on the differences in nuclease cleavage sites on tRNAs, tsRNAs can be classified into four major categories: tRNA-derived fragments, tRF-1, tRNA-derived stress-inducible small RNAs, other unclassified tsRNAs, each of which has a specific subcellular localization. Recent studies have revealed that tRNAs play important roles in embryonic development, cell fate, immune regulation, the development of many human diseases. Therefore, this paper systematically reviews the biological origin, classification of tsRNAs, the biological functions of tsRNAs, including gene expression regulation, translational regulation, epigenetic regulation, reverse transcriptional regulation, neonatal RNA silencing, explores the feasibility of tsRNAs as diagnostic markers, therapeutic targets for diseases

Aging is a multifactorial, system-wide process of functional decline and is a major risk factor for various chronic diseases, including cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and neurodegenerative disorders. In recent years, the use of blood and blood-derived products as potential anti-aging therapies has attracted considerable attention. Studies suggest that growth factors, cytokines, and small-molecule metabolites in young blood components exhibit significant tissue repair and anti-aging effects, promoting neurogenesis, enhancing cellular regeneration, and regulating metabolic homeostasis, thereby improving health in older individuals. Young plasma has been found to reverse neurological decline, improve cardiovascular function, reduce liver fibrosis, and enhance kidney function, showing anti-aging potential across various organs. Current clinical trials of young plasma focus on neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, demonstrating safety and good tolerance in small-scale studies. However, the long-term efficacy and safety of this therapy remain to be validated, and ethical and resource considerations require careful evaluation. This review summarizes research progress on blood and blood-derived products as anti-aging therapies, with a focus on their regenerative effects on the nervous, cardiovascular, hepatic, and renal systems/organs, and consolidates findings from related clinical trials to support further clinical applications in anti-aging interventions.

This article reviews the biological characteristics, epidemiology, transmission routes, clinical symptoms, detection methods, blood transfusion safety status, blood transfusion prevention, control strategies of dengue fever.

Objective To study the serological changes, laboratory detection methods, and transfusion strategies for patients with positive anti-E unexpected antibodies after umbilical cord blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation with E-positive antigens. Methods ABO and Rh blood typing and unexpected antibody screening tests were performed using conventional serological methods. Unexpected antibody identification was conducted using PEG enhancement technology and acid elution test. Cell population detection was carried out using flow cytometry to analyze the patterns of blood group antigen conversion and antibody resolution. Results The patient had pretransplant blood type AB, Rh type CCDee, with anti-E unexpected antibodies. Unrelated cord blood HSC donor was type B, Rh classification was ccDEE, related hemicompatible peripheral blood HSC donor was type AB, and Rh classification was CcDEe. The patient was in blood group transition and the unexpected antibody screening result was negative, but IgG anti-E antibody was detected by PEG enhancement test and erythrocyte acid release test. Conclusion For patients with similar antibodies before transplantation, PEG enhanced anti-human globulin test is recommended as a supplement to routine serological tests, monitor the changes of alloantibody levels, prevent hemolytic reaction and avoid red cell transfusion refractoriness.

Objective To assess the miss detection rate (MDR) and frequency of the D variant among RhD negativeblood donors in Taiyuan. Methods From January 2013 to December 2021, 6 287 RhD negativeblood samples, initially screened, were collected. These samples were further confirmed using the tube antiglobulin test or microcolumn gel card method. RhD genotyping was done on the 17 specimens which showed discrepancies with previous testresults or the manufacturer's specifications for the primary screening reagent. By analyzing the number of D variant donors, blood donations and missed detections, the theoretical MDR and frequency of D variant were calculated in the RhD negativeblood samples from the primary screening. Results Between January 2013 and December 2021, the detection rate of D variant in the 6 287 RhD negative samples (including repeat donors) by preliminary screening was 5.36%（337/6 287）. Statistical analysis of 59 D variant blood donors who donated more than once revealed that theoretically, 5.37% of D variants were missed. Considering the MDR, the theoretical frequency of D variant in the RhD negative population from the preliminary screening was 7.68%. Conclusion Some D variant blood donors were missed in the conventional test. The theoretical MDR and frequency of D variant in the RhD negative samples by primary screening align more closely with the actual situation.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of third-generation gene sequencing (TGS) in detecting Kidd blood group antigen in weakly expressed samples. Methods Samples of patients in Xinjiang Autonomous Region People's Hospital were collected, Jka and Jkb antigens were detected by serological methods, and 9 cases of weakly expressed samples of Kidd blood group genes were subjected to full-length single-molecule real-time sequencing technology (third-generation high-throughput sequencing) to obtain their gene polymorphisms and statistically analyzed. Results The main mutation sites of the Kidd blood group gene were detected in this study: c.588A>G, c.838G>A, and c.130G>A. In addition, 5 samples were found to have new gene mutation types, with 2 being homozygous and 3 heterozygous. The new mutation gene types were: c.499A>G, c.588A>G, and c.838G>A, which are mainly seen in the Jk(b+) phenotype. The allele name for the new mutation is JK*02.NEW. In 9 samples, 7 of the genetic test results were different from the serological results, and all of them had ISBT-recorded or unrecorded gene mutation sites. At the same time, the specificity of the mutation gene sites and the corresponding amino acid changes were summarized and analyzed. Conclusion The present study investigated the mutation, splicing, folding, and amino acid sequence of the Kidd gene in the Xinjiang population. This research lays a solid foundation for gaining further insights into the specificity of blood groups in this region and provides a fundamental basis for future construction of three-dimensional protein models.

Objective To analyze the diagnostic value of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in platelets in early screening of colon cancer (CC). Methods The GSE68086 and GSE183635 datasets, which contain platelet lncRNAs data from CC patients and healthy controls, were analyzed using the “limma” package in R. The intersection of the results was utilized to identify differentially expressed lncRNAs (DElncRNAs). The Wilcoxon rank sum test in R language was used to analyze the differential expression of DElncRNAs in CC tissues and normal control tissues. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression levels of platelet LINC00926 in 60 healthy controls and 66 CC patients. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) was used to evaluate diagnostic performance. Results The differential analysis of GSE68086 dataset identified 341 DElncRNAs, and the GSE183635 dataset identified 21 DElncRNAs. The key DElncRNA LINC00926 was obtained from the intersection. R language Wilcoxon rank sum test showed that the expression level of platelet LINC00926 in CC tissues was lower than that in normal colon tissues ( P<0.05). qRT-PCR confirmed that down-regulation of platelet LINC00926 in CC patients and early-stage CC patients (both P<0.001). The area under the curve (AUC) of platelet LINC00926 for CC diagnosis was 0.781, with a specificity of 80.0% and sensitivity of 74.2%. AUC for early-stage CC diagnosis was 0.761, with a specificity of 78.3% and sensitivity of 70.8%. The combined diagnostic model of platelet LINC00926 and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) had an AUC of 0.864, a specificity of 91.7% and sensitivity of 69.7%. The AUC for early-stage CC diagnosis was 0.851, with a specificity of 75.0% and sensitivity of 85.4% ( P<0.05). In both CC and early-stage CC, the detection of AUC of platelet LINC00926 combined with CEA was superior to that of single detection (z =-2.619, 2.388, respectively, both P<0.05). Conclusion The LINC00926 expression in platelets of CC patients was down-regulated. It suggests that platelet LINC00926 may enhance the diagnostic value of early screening for colon cancer.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of plasma exchange in desensitization treatment of DSA (donor-specific antibody) positive patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out of 30 DSA positive patients desensitized with plasma exchange and combined with anti-B cell therapy in our hospital from July 2021 to July 2023. We primarily investigated the changes in the average fluorescence intensity of DSA before and after plasma exchange therapy, its impact on the incidence of cell implantation during transplantation and GVHD (graft-versus-host disease) after transplantation, and the adverse reactions during plasma exchange therapy. Results Totally 64 plasma exchanges were performed on 30 patients, with 24 mild adverse reactions including hypocalcemia and allergies. These reactions were relieved after treatment and did not didrupt the plasma exchange process. The average fluorescence intensity of DSA before and after plasma exchange was 7 182.9±5 535.3 and 2 311.8±2 835.9, respectively ( P<0.001). Among the 30 patients, 25 underwent allo-HSCT (umbilical cord blood transplantation in 19 and Haplo HSCT in 6), with 23 (92%) achieving hematopoietic reconstruction. The median engraftment times were 14 (9~60) days for neutrophils and and 31 (10~64) days for platelets. Two patients underwent secondary transplantation due to failed engraftment. Five patients were not transplanted or their data was deleted. The cumulative incidence of Ⅱ~Ⅳ aGVHD within 30 days after transplantation in 23 patients was 41%. Conclusion Plasma exchange combined with anti B cell therapy is an effective desensitization therapy for DSA positive patients subjected to hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Objective To analyze the serological and molecular biological characteristics of Bweak subtype probands and their families, and to explore the molecular mechanism and genetic characteristics of Bw27 variant. Methods Serological methods were used to detect ABO blood group antigens and antibodies in the proband and family members. Further serological detection was conducted by absorption and elution. Fluorescence PCR was employed for genotyping, and the 6th and 7th exons of the ABO gene were amplified and sequenced. Results The proband's ABO serological test showed inconsistent in p forward and reverse typing, and the absorption and elution test detected weak B antigen on the proband's red blood cells, with a serological phenotype similar to Bel. The genotyping result was B/O1, and gene sequencing revealed a c.905A>G mutation in the 7th exon of the ABO gene, with a genotype of ABO*BW.27/ABO*O.01.01. Pedigree testing results showed that the proband's mother carried the ABO*BW.27 allele, consistent with familial genetic characteristics. Conclusion The c.905A>G mutation in the 7th exon of the ABO gene leads to the substitution of aspartic acid at position 302 with glycine, resulting in weak expression of B antigen, which is a characteristic mutations of ABO*BW.27 that can be distinguished from Bel by gene sequencing. A single nucleotide point mutations can cause specific changes in glycosyltransferase and can be inherited to produce specific serological phenotypes in offspring. Blood types should be comprehensively determined based on serological results with genotyping and DNA sequencing results.
