Objective:To explore clinical value of nucleic acid detection for hepatitis B virus (HBV) screening in hospitalized patients.Methods:This cross-sectional study collected and analyzed plasma samples from patients admitted to 10 domestic medical institutions from July 2021 to December 2021. Serological immunoassay and nucleic acid screening were used to simultaneously detect hepatitis B markers such as hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B surface antibody (HBsAb), hepatitis B e Antigen (HBeAg), hepatitis B e antibody (HBeAb), hepatitis B core antibody (HBcAb),and HBV DNA. Statistical analysis was performed on the serology, nucleic acid test results and clinical information of the patients.Results:Of the 8 655 collected samples, HBsAg was positive in 216 (2.50%) samples,HBV DNA was positive in 238 (2.75%) samples ( P>0.05); 210 (2.43%) samples were positive for both HBsAg and HBV DNA, 28 (0.32%) were HBsAg negative and HBV DNA positive, 6 cases (0.07%) were HBsAg positive and HBV DNA negative. Conclusion:These results indicate that the HBV DNA testing is equally effective as hepatitis B virus serological detection for hepatitis B virus screening in hospitalized patients.

Objective:To compare the cost-effectiveness of hospitalized Chinese patients undergoing nucleic acid screening strategies for hepatitis B and hepatitis C, immunological screening strategy, and no screening strategy under different willingness to pay (WTP). The results might aid to decision-making for the optimal strategy.Methods:In this study, nucleic acid screening, immunological screening and no screening were used as screening strategies, and China′s GDP in 2021 (80 976 yuan) was used as the threshold of WTP to construct a Markov model. After introducing parameters related to the diagnosis and treatment of hepatitis B and C in inpatients, a cohort population of 100 000 inpatients was simulated by TreeAge Pro 2021 software, the total cost, total health effects, incremental cost-effectiveness ratio and average cost-effectiveness ratio of different screening strategies were calculated, and cost-effectiveness analysis was conducted. Univariate and probabilistic sensitivity analysis were used to assess the impact of parameter uncertainty on the final results.Results:Compared with the non-screening strategy, the incremental total cost of the hepatitis B immunological screening strategy for cohort patients was 11 049 536 yuan, and the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was 24 762 yuan/quality-adjusted life years (QALY), while the total incremental cost of nucleic acid screening was 19 208 059 yuan, and the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio was 29 873 yuan/QALY; the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of nucleic acid screening and immunological screening was 45 834 yuan/QALY. Compared with the non-screening strategy, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of hepatitis C immunological screening strategy was 5 731 yuan/QALY, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of nucleic acid screening strategy was 8 722 yuan/QALY, the incremental cost-effectiveness ratio of nucleic acid screening and immunological screening was 45 591 yuan/QALY. The results of probabilistic sensitivity analysis showed that when the cost of nucleic acid testing exceeded 214.53 yuan, it was not cost-effective to perform hepatitis B nucleic acid screening under the WTP as 1 fold GDP. When the cost of nucleic acid testing exceeded 132.18 yuan, it was not cost-effective to conduct hepatitis C screening under the WTP as 1 fold GDP.Conclusions:Nucleic acid screening strategy can achieve more cost-effectiveness and is worthy of vigorous promotion. Compared with no screening, both the nucleic acid and immunological screening strategies are cost-effective, and hepatitis nucleic acid screening is the optimal strategy for hospitalized patients.

Objective:This multi-centre study was conducted to assess the efficacy of various preoperative/pre-transfusion screening methods for blood transmitted disease.Methods:From July 2021 to December 2021, plasma samples of patients admitted to 10 hospitals were collected for screening preoperative/pre-transfusion blood transmitted disease. Nucleic acid detection technology was used to detect hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA, hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)(1+2) RNA, and the results were compared with the immuno-serological methods. χ 2 test and Kappa test were used to analyze the efficacy of these two methods. Results:A total of 8 655 valid specimens were collected from 10 hospitals. There was a statistically significant difference in the positive detection rate of HCV between the two methods ( P<0.001). There was no significant difference in the positive detection rate of HBV and HIV assessed by the two methods ( P>0.05), but the number of positive cases detected by HBV DNA and HIV RNA (218 and 4 cases) was significantly higher than the corresponding serological results (216 and 2 cases). At the same time, there were HBV, HCV and HIV immuno-serological omissions by the immuno-serological methods, among which 28 cases were HBsAg negative and HBV DNA positive, 2 cases were HCV antibody negative and HCV RNA positive, and 2 cases were HIV antigen/antibody negative and HIV RNA positive. In addition, in the 66 samples with inconsistent results from the two detection methods, 83.3% (55/66), 68.2% (45/66), 63.6% (42/66) and 62.1% (41/66) of patients aged was>45 years, tumor, surgery and male, respectively. Conclusions:Compared with immuno-serological tests, nucleic acid tests have the advantage in terms of sensitivity on detecting HBV, HCV and HIV infection and could reduce missed detection. The risk of transmission can be reduced by adding HBV, HCV, and HIV nucleic acid tests to preoperative/pre-transfusion immuno-serological tests screening for patients over 45 years of age and tumor patients.

OBJECTIVE: To establish a method for detecting human urinary thiocyanate by gas chromatographic and pre-column derivatization with 2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzyl bromide( PFB-Br). METHODS: A total of 20. 0 μL of urine was taken and 1. 0 m L of acetonitrile and 100. 0 μL of PFB-Br were added for derivative reaction. The gas chromatography was directly used for measurement. RESULTS: The urinary thiocyanate concentration showed a good linear range of 1. 000-10. 000 mg/L. The linear correlation coefficient was 0. 999 6. The minimum detection concentration was 0. 112 mg/L,and the minimum quantitative concentration was 0. 411 mg/L( 20. 0 μL urine sample). The standard recovery rate was 97. 22%-102. 04%.The within-run relative standard deviation( RSD) of this method was 1. 56%-5. 35%. The between-run RSD was 1. 46%-5. 10%. Hydrocyanic acid ions interfered with the measurement. Other common inorganic ions such as chloride,sulfate,and nitrate ions did not interfere with the measurement results. The samples can be stored at 4 ℃ for at least 15 days. CONCLUSION: This method is suitable for detecting human urinary thiocyanate.

Objective: To analyze the clinical characteristics of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) caused by coxsackievirus A6 (CV-A6) in different age groups. Methods: From January 2015 to December 2017, throat swabs were collected from children with or suspected of having HFMD then quantitative real-time PCR was performed to detect enterovirus nucleic acid. HFMD cases caused by CV-A6 were divided into different groups according to age for comparison. Results: In total, there were 467 cases of HFMD caused by CV-A6 with the age ranging from 3 months to 16 years. There were 273 cases in the infants and young children group (< 3 years old), 131 cases in the pre-school group (3-6 years old), and 63 cases in the school-age group (> 6 years old). The peak incidence was found between May and November.Fever was the common symptom, and the rate of fever in infant group was the highest (220/273, 80.5%); The proportion of cases with leucocyte elevation in the infant group was the highest (127/273, 46.5%) than that in the school-age group (17/63, 27.0%) with a statistical significance. The skin erythra of the HFMD caused by CV-A6 were diverse in forms. Over two forms of skin erythra accounted for 53.9% (257/476) of all cases, and the cases in the infant group showing more forms of skin erythra (163/273, 59.7%). The oral herpes were mainly distributed in the upper palate and pharyngeal isthmus, but the school age group had the least number of distribution sites (0.89±0.86). The cases in the infant group showed higher incidence of skin rash at the elbow joint (109/273, 39.9%), knee (88/273, 32.6%), thigh (112/273, 41%), buttock (122/273, 44.7%) than the other two groups, However, the school age group showed lower incidence of skin rash in the lower leg (0/63, 0%) and thigh (6/63, 9.5%) than the other two groups. The differences between groups were statistically significant. All cases were cured clinically, no severe cases occurred. Among the 288 cases followed up for 6 months, 33 (33/288, 11.5%) suffered from nail exfoliation. Conclusions Different age groups of HFMD caused by CV-A6 had different clinical manifestations. In the infant group, more cases had fever and the erythra were more diverse in forms and wider in distribution. In addition, the increased leukocytes in routine blood test was also more common in the infant group.
