The development of heart is an accurate, coordinated process including primordial cardiac cell differentiation, migration, and multi-cell combination. This process is accompanied by cell apoptosis, and by a series of gene regulation. If gene gets out of regulation, abnormal cell apoptosis will occur, which will lead to abnormal development of embryonic heart, or even malformation. By studying gene expression on apoptosis, we investigated the relationship between apoptosis and embryonic heart development, clarified the relevant mechanism for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of heart diseases.

【Objective】 To analyze the implementation effect of points-based household registration policy for blood donors in Nanjing, so as to provide reference for other provinces and cities to develop incentive policies for blood donation. 【Methods】 The basic demographic profile, registration situation and deferral reasons of blood donors who applied for points-based household registration from 2017 to 2021 were analyzed by Excel. 【Results】 1) A total of 388 blood donors applied for points-based household registration for blood donation from 2017 to 2021, accounting for 0.042% of the total blood donors in Nanjing (388/923 160), and 357 applications were approved, accounting for 0.039% (357/923 160). 2) The proportion of male applicants was higher than that of female applicants (55.15% vs 44.85%). Applicants aged 26~35 accounted for the largest, followed by applicants aged 36~45, and applicants aged 18~25 accounted for the least. The proportion of applicants in Jiangsu province(23.27%) was higher than that of applicants from other provinces. The top three occupations were employees, workers and jobless. In terms of education level, applicants with junior high school education or below accounted for the largest, followed by high school and secondary school (35.05% vs 29.38% vs 23.20%). The proportion of first-time blood donors was the highest (33.24%). Among the repeated blood donors, blood donors who donated blood 2~3 times were with the highest share (23.93%). Nineteen donors(4.90%) got more than 100 points. 3) A total of 31 blood donors were deferred from 2017 to 2021, accounting for 7.90% of the total applicants. Among them, 23 applicants donated in other cities than Nanjing, 5 applicants failed to provide valid blood donation certificates, and 3 applicants submitted irrelevant material. 【Conclusion】 The implementation of points-based household registration policy for voluntary blood donors in Nanjing helped blood donors who could not reach other points due to low education level and income to become registered permanent residence in Nanjing
