BACKGROUND:Plate fixation is the mainstream method for the surgical treatment of distal femoral fractures.The intramedullary nailing has the advantages of minimally invasive,such as less soft tissue injury and bone blood supply destruction.At the same time,it is a central fixation and has better biomechanical effect.Therefore,retrograde intramedullary nailing has become another option for the internal fixation of distal femoral fractures.OBJECTIVE:The biomechanical characteristics of new retrograde intramedullary nail on lateral femur condyle,common femoral retrograde intramedullary nail,and lateral femur condyle anatomical locking plate for the treatment of A2-type distal femoral fractures were compared using finite element analysis,and the advantages of new retrograde intramedullary nail on lateral femur condyle was studied.METHODS:A new retrograde intramedullary nail on lateral femur condyle was designed,which was inserted into the bone cortex in front of the insertion point of the lateral collateral ligament of the lateral femoral condyle.A CT scan was performed on the lower limb bone of a male volunteer,and a three-dimensional model of the femur was established.The model was then segmented to create a three-dimensional model of a femoral distal A2-type fracture,The three-dimensional models of small(small group),standard type retrograde intramedullary nail on the lateral femoral condyle(standard group),common retrograde intramedullary needle(common group),and lateral femur condyle anatomical locking plate(plate group)were established respectively.The axial stresses of 600,1 800 N and the torsional load of 4 000,8 000 N·mm were applied to the models,and the displacement and stress of femur and the displacement,stress and shear force of internal fixators were observed in each group.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)When subjected to axial load of 600 and 1 800 N,the femoral peak displacement,the femoral peak stress,and the peak stress of interal fixation in the standard group were the lowest among the four groups.(2)When subjected to torsional load of 4 000 and 8 000 N·mm,the femoral peak displacement and peak displacement of the internal fixation in the standard group were the lowest among the four groups.(3)Compared with femoral lateral condylar locking plate and common retrograde intramedullary needle,the new retrograde intramedullary needle on lateral femur condyle has mechanical advantages of reducing stress concentration and decreasing the risk of internal fixation failure.

Objective: To establish evidence-based, safe and efficient management of HIV-reactive blood donors by investigating safe and feasible assessment strategies for HIV-reactive blood donors based on routine blood screening data. Methods: The data of blood screening, supplementary testing, follow-up and CDC confirmation for HIV-reactive blood donors in our center from 2014 to 2024 were analyzed systematically to confirm HIV infection and identify infection status. Results: There were 1 235 samples (0.13%, 1 235/928 000) reactive in HIV blood screening over the 11-year period. A-mong them, 199 donors (16.11%) in asymptomatic HIV infection (HIV Ag/Ab++&HIV RNA+), 2(0.16%) as acute early HIV infection (HIV Ag/Ab+-&HIV RNA+) and 7(0.57%) as window-period infection (HIV RNA positive only) were confirmed. Donors with the result of HIV Ag/Ab+-&HIV RNA-(single-positive) were all excluded for HIV infection, while 1 in 6 HIV Ag/Ab++&HIV RNA-donors (double-positive) was confirmed to have HIV infection. When HIV Ag/Ab reagents were used continuously before and after the follow-up, it's observed in one reagent that the proportion of negative results in subsequent follow-up in single-positive donors who had negative results in the first sampling was significantly higher than the proportion of negative results in subsequent follow-up in those initially single-positive (P<0.05). But no significant difference was observed in another reagent (P>0.05). When reagents were changed in follow-up, the rate of singlepositive donors with negative results in the first sampling reached 96.7%, which was significantly higher than the negative rate of those without reagent changing in follow-up (P<0.05). Conclusion: Based on the serological and nucleic acid testing results of HIV blood screening, the confirmation of HIV infection and identification of infection status can be achieved accurately and efficiently. All HIV Ag/Ab+-&HIV RNA-donors were confirmed as false positive, and should be maintained their eligibilities for blood donation, but recommended to pass the retest before next donation. Using a different reagent for retesting helps improve the eligible rate. HIV Ag/Ab++&HIV RNA-donors should be deferred permanently due to the risk of true positivity.

Objective: To analyze serological and molecular characteristics of asymptomatic HBV infection in HBV surface antigen positive (HBsAg+) blood donors from Dalian. Methods: The prevalence of HBsAg was analyzed among blood donors in Dalian between 2013 and 2022. Randomly selected HBsAg+ blood samples were subjected to HBV serological testing, HBV viral DNA quantification, and HBV genotyping. Results: Over this ten-year period, the prevalence of HBsAg decreased from 1.25% to 0.50% among blood donors in Dalian. Donors who tested positive for HBsAg prior to donation using a rapid test (RT) accounted for 92.5% of all HBsAg+ donors identified. A total of 240 confirmed HBsAg+ blood donors were randomly selected, including 125 donors with positive results and 115 with negative results in the pre-donation rapid test. HBsAg+ donors were mainly males (71.2%), with a median age of 42, and 97.5% of them being first-time donors. Based on HBV serological profiles, three stages of infection were identified: early infection (2.9%), suspected acute hepatitis (0.8%), and chronic infection (96.3%). The dominant HBV genotypes were C (68.9%) and B (28.4%). Among chronic HBV infection individuals, donors infected with HBV genotype B were older than those infected with genotype C (median age: 45y vs 38.5y, P<0.05). Additionally, they showed significantly lower HBsAg levels with a narrower distribution range than those infected with genotype C [median: 23.2 IU/mL (range: <0.05-7 910 IU/mL) vs 968 IU/mL (range: <0.05-3.4×10 ), P<0.05]. However, no significant difference was observed in the HBV DNA loads between these two genotypes (P>0.05). Conclusion: Between 2013 and 2022, the prevalence of HBsAg among blood donors in Dalian showed a year-over-year decline. Chronic infection was predominant among HBsAg+ first-time blood donors. The characteristics of chronic infection in blood donors differed significantly depending on the viral genotype, manifesting as differences in age of infected individuals and HBsAg level distribution.

Objective:To conduct evidence synthesis on disease communication between parents and their minor children from the perspective of parents with cancer, so as to provide information for clinical healthcare providers to deliver improved health education to patients and their children.Methods:Computer retrieval was implemented in PubMed, CINAHL, Embase, Web of Science, PsycINFO, Cochrane Library, ProQuest, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, and Wanfang Data. The search period was from January 1, 2000 to March 6, 2025. The literature was assessed according to the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Center for Evidence-Based Health Care Quality Assessment Criteria for Qualitative Research. The JBI aggregative integration method was employed for the Meta-synthesis.Results:A total of nine articles were included. Thirty-two results were extracted, divided into ten categories, and integrated into five results, namely willingness to communicate illness, factors influencing communicating willingness, disease communication strategies, supporting children's coping, and perceptions of illness information.Conclusions:Disease communication between cancer parents and their minor children is influenced by multiple factors and exhibits complex diversity. Healthcare providers should fully understand and accurately recognize the distinct approaches of parents with cancer, offering guidance, advice, and encouragement whenever possible, and should dynamically provide timely medical support and assistance tailored to the evolving needs of patients throughout different stages of their disease treatment.

Objective To compare the biomechanical characteristics of novel retrograde intramedullary nail,common femoral retrograde intramedullary nail,and medial femoral condyle locking plate for treating distal femur type A fractures by finite element analysis,and study the advantages of retrograde intramedullary nail on medial femoral condyle.Methods A novel retrograde intramedullary nail on medial femur condyle was designed.CT scan was performed on lower limb bones of a male volunteer,and a three-dimensional(3D)model of the femur was established.The model was then segmented to create models of distal femur type A2 and A3 fractures.The 3D models of internal fixator were established.The small and standard retrograde intramedullary nail on medial femoral condyle,common femoral retrograde intramedullary nail,locking plate on medial femoral condyle were used for internal fixation on A2 type fracture.A3 type fracture was fixed with one of the above internal fixators combined with lateral condylar plate respectively.The 600 N axial load and 4 N·m torsional load were applied to the models.The displacement and stress of femurs,the displacement and stress of internal fixators,the micro-momentum between the internal fixator and the bone,the relative displacement of the two fracture broken ends were observed in each group.Results Among the A2 and A3 type fractures under axial loads,the correponding standard group and corresponding standard combined group had the smallest peak displacement and peak stress of internal fixation.Among the A2 and A3 type fractures under torsional loads,the correponding standard group and corresponding standard combined group had the smallest peak displacement of the femur and internal fixation.The relative displacement of the two broken ends in the standard combined group was the smallest.Conclusions Compared with femoral medial condylar locking plate and common retrograde intramedullary nail,this novel retrograde intramedullary nail on medial femur condyle has a mechanical advantage of reducing stress concentration and reducing the risk of internal fixation failure,and it can be used alone for distal femur type A2 fracture,or in combination with the lateral condylar plate to fix distal femur type A3 fracture.
