The frequencies and diversities of human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles and haplotypes are representative of ethnicities. Matching HLA alleles is essential for many clinical applications, including blood transfusion, stem cell transplantation, and tissue/organ transplantation. To date, the information about the frequencies and distributions of HLA alleles and haplotypes among the Kinh Vietnamese population is limited because of the small sample size. In this study, more than 3,750 cord blood units from individuals belonging to the Kinh Vietnamese population were genotyped using PCR sequence-specific oligonucleotide (PCR-SSO) for HLA testing. The results of the study demonstrated that the most frequently occurring HLA-A, -B, -C, and -DRB1 alleles were A*11:01 (25%), A*24:02 (12.3%), A*02:01 (11.2); A*03:03 (8.95%), A*02:03 (7.81%), A*29:01 (7.03%); B*15:02 (15.1%), B*46:01 (10.7%), B*58:01 (7.65%), B*38:02 (7.29%); C*08:01 (17.2), C*07:02 (16.2%), C*01:02 (15.2), C*03:02 (8.3%), C*15:05 (6.13); DRB1*12:02 (31.0%), DRB1*09:01 (10.47%), DRB1*15:02 (7.54%); DRB1*07:01 (6.68%), DRB1*10:01 (6.63%), respectively, with the highest allele diversity level observed in locus B (93 alleles). The most frequent haplotypes of two-locus combinations of HLA-A-B, HLA-A-C, HLA-A-DRB1, HLA-B-C, HLA-B-DRB1, and HLA-C-DRB1 haplotypes were A*11:01-B*15:02 (7.63%), A*11:01-C*08:01 (7.98%), A*11:01-DRB1*12:02 (10.56%), B*15:02-C*08:01 (14.0%), B*15:02-DRB1*12:02 (10.47%), and C*08:01-DRB1*12:02 (11.38%), respectively. In addition, the most frequent haplotypes of three- and four-locus sets of HLA-A-B-C, HLA-A-B-DRB1, HLA-A-C-DRB1, HLA-B-C-DRB1, and HLA-A-B-C-DRB1 were A*11:01-B*15:02-C*08:01 (7.57%), A*11:01-B*15:02-DRB1*12:02 (5.39%), A*11:01-C*08:01-DRB1*12:02 (5.54%), B*15:02-C*08:01-DRB1*12:02 (10.21%), and A*11:01-B*15:02-C*08:01-DRB1*12:02 (5.45%), respectively. This study provides critical information on the frequencies and distributions of HLA alleles and haplotypes in the Kinh Vietnamese population, accounting for more than 85% of Vietnamese citizens. It paves the way to establish an umbilical cord blood bank for cord blood transplantation programs in Vietnam.

Effects of different approaches of infraclavicular brachial plexus block on perfusion index and tissue perfusion.

Department of Anesthesiology and Reanimation, Zonguldak Bülent Ecevit University Medicine Faculty, Zonguldak, Türkiye.
Background: Although both the lateral sagittal and costoclavicular approaches are applied at the cord level in the infraclavicular region, there is a major difference between the distributions of the two approaches. We aimed to investigate the effects of this different distribution on tissue perfusion and oxygenation.
Methods: Sixty patients undergoing elective elbow, forearm, wrist and hand surgery under infraclavicular brachial plexus block were included in the study.

Background: The sympathetic autonomic nervous system plays a major role in arrhythmia development and maintenance. Historical preclinical studies describe preferential increases in cardiac sympathetic tone upon selective stimulation of the subclavian ansae (SA), a nerve cord encircling the subclavian artery.
Objectives: This study sought to define, for the first time, the functional anatomy and physiology of the SA in humans using a percutaneous approach.

Background: The balance of omega-6/omega-3 (-6/-3) is crucial for proper brain function as they have opposite physiological roles.
Objectives: To analyze the association between maternal serum ratios of -6/-3 in the first and third trimesters of pregnancy and the neurodevelopment of their children in the early days after birth in the population of Northern Spain's Mediterranean region.
Methods: Longitudinal study in which 336 mother-child pairs participated.

Background: A number of clinical studies have shown a positive association between the maternal -3 PUFA status during pregnancy and fetal and newborn development and health. Despite this well-documented role of -3 PUFAs in pregnancy, data on maternal the LC-PUFAs status during pregnancy in the Indonesian population, to our knowledge, are not yet available.
