Objective: To evaluate the practical effectiveness of confidential unit exclusion (CUE) in ensuring blood safety in Zhengzhou, analyze its application characteristics and existing problems, and provide a basis for optimizing blood safety management strategies. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on CUE data handled by Henan Red Cross Blood Center from January 2019 to December 2024. Parameters such as the number of cases, demographic characteristics, reasons for exclusion, and time of report were statistically analyzed and compared with those of non-CUE. Results: From 2019 to 2024, the CUE reporting rate in Zhengzhou was 0.002 6% (40/1 547 666). CUE donors were predominantly male (65.00%, 26/40), aged 18-34 years (47.50%, 19/40), had college degree orabove (50.00%, 20/40), and were employees of enterprises or public institutions (32.50%, 13/40). Among the 40 CUE blood units, only one was reactive for anti-TP, while all others were qualified. The main reasons for CUE were recent vaccination (32.50%, 13/40), medical conditions unsuitable for donation (27.50%, 11/40), and high-risk sexual behavior (17.50%, 7/40). A total of 70.00% of reports occurred within 24 hours after donation, during which none of the corresponding blood units had been released; all units reported after more than 7 days had already been issued for clinical use, with no adverse transfusion reactions reported upon follow-up. Conclusion: The confidential unit exclusion program has played an active role in establishing a supplementary information feedback channel for blood donors. The procedure can be optimized by strengthening interactive communication and confirmation before donation, improving the accuracy of donors' self-assessment, and expanding convenient and rapid information-based reporting channels.

In recent years,with the advancement of microbial detection technologies,an increasing number of studies have revealed significant differences in the gut microbiota composition of kidney transplant recipients before and after surgery.These changes in the gut microbiota may influence graft function and the occurrence of post-transplant complications through a variety of factors.This article will review the research progress in the relationship between gut microbiota and kidney transplantation.It focuses on the changes in gut microbiota after kidney transplantation.The role of gut microbiota in immune regulation,drug metabolism,graft function protection,and post-transplant complications is also studied.At the same time,these effects may be of great significance in improving the short-term and long-term prognosis of kidney transplant recipients,thus providing a novel idea for further improving kidney transplant prognosis.

Objective To investigate the adverse pregnancy outcomes of fetuses with increased nuchal translucency(NT).Methods A total of 376 pregnant women at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from May 2023 to January 2024 were selected as research subjects,who had a diagnosis of fetal NT ≥ the 95th percentile and complete pregnancy outcomes for singleton pregnancies.The fetuses were divided into simple thickening group(n=320)and thickening with structural abnormalities group(n=56)based on NT ultrasound results.The interventional prenatal diagnosis outcomes and pregnancy outcomes of two groups were compared.Results The rate of chromosomal abnormalities and the incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes were higher in thickening with structural abnormalities group compared to simple thickening group with statistically significant differences(P＜0.05).The overall incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes in NT thickened fetuses was 31.65％,but after excluding chromosomal abnormalities and structural malformations,the good pregnancy outcome rate in NT thickened fetuses was 98.09％.Conclusion NT thickening is associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes in fetuses,and the risk of poor fetal outcome is further increased when NT thickening combined with structural abnormalities in early pregnancy,but the pregnancy outcome is better in fetuses with NT thickening after excluding chromosomal abnormalities and structural malformations.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between long-term statin use and Helicobacter pylori( Hp)infection in the elderly, and to compare the effects of rosuvastatin combined with bismuth-containing quadruple therapy for Hp eradication on lipid levels in elderly patients with mixed hyperlipidemia. Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 1 181 elderly patients with hyperlipidemia, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and peripheral arterial disease who were treated at the First Hospital of Lanzhou University between March 2019 and December 2023.According to the results of carbon 14 urea breath test(C 14-UBT), the subjects were divided into the Hp infection group and the non- Hp infection group.Multivariate logistic regression methods were used to analyze the correlation between Hp infection and statin use.A prospective case-control analysis was conducted on 109 patients with mixed hyperlipidemia and Hp infection treated during the same period, they were treated with rosuvastatin combined with bismuth-containing quadruple therapy for Hp eradication.The successful eradication people were selected as the eradication group (n=95). Patients with hyperlipidemia and Hp infection unwilling eradication was selected as the control group (n=109), and treated with rosuvastatin.Changes in lipid levels were compared over a consecutive 6-month period. Results:The overall Hp infection rate was 53.94%(637/1 181). Univariate analysis showed that the infection rate in women was higher than in men.Body mass index(BMI), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C), fasting blood glucose(FBG)levels in the Hp(+ )group were higher than in the Hp(-)group.Long-term low-dose aspirin users had a higher infection rate than non-users.The infection rate was lower in statin users than in non-users[42.65%(374/877) vs.55.59%(169/304), χ2=15.234, P<0.001]. Multivariate analysis showed that women had a higher infection risk than men ( OR=1.441, 95% CI: 1.102-1.729, P=0.011). Higher FBG and LDL-C levels increased the risk of Hp infection ( OR=1.406, 95% CI: 1.271-2.286, P<0.001, OR=1.118, 95% CI: 1.017-1.387, P=0.010). Aspirin use increased the risk of Hp infection( OR=1.162, 95% CI: 1.034-1.294, P=0.021), while statin use reduced the risk of Hp infection ( OR=0.177, 95% CI: 0.018-0.311, P<0.001). The Hp eradication rate was 87.16%(95/109). At 1-and 2-months post-eradication, statistically significant differences were observed between the eradication and control groups in LDL-C, total cholesterol(TC), changes from baseline, and target achievement rates(all P<0.05). At 1-month post-eradication, a statistically significant difference was observed in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C) levels between the two groups.Additionally, at both 1-and 2-months post-eradication, significant differences were found in the changes in HDL-C levels from baseline between the eradication group and the control group(all P<0.05). Conclusions:Long-term statin use in the elderly may reduce the risk of Hp infection.Rosuvastatin combined with a standard quadruple therapy does not improve the Hp eradication rates in elderly patients with mixed hyperlipidemia, but it facilitates short-term achievement of cholesterol targets.

Objective To explore the basis of PERMA on the overall well-being and social support of elderly patients with maintenance hemodialysis(MHD).Methods A total of 60 elderly patients with MHD were selected from the blood purification center of a tertiary A hospital in Zhejiang Province from January to December 2022 as the study subjects.According to the different disease areas of the patients,they were randomly divided into an experimental group or a control group.Finally,30 patients were included in each group.The control group received routine care,and the experimental group received another 4-week bidirectional social support intervention based on the PERMA model.General well-being scale,social support rating scale,sleep duration,activity duration were used to evaluate the effect before intervention,4 weeks after intervention and 1 month after intervention.Results The results of repeated measurement ANOVA showed that there were statistically significant differences in general happiness score,social support score,sleep duration and activity duration in terms of time effect(P＜0.05),while there were statistically significant differences in general happiness score,social support score and sleep duration in terms of inter-group effect(P＜0.05).Social support score and sleep duration had statistically significant interac-tion effects(P＜0.05).Conclusion The bidirectional social support intervention based on well-being PERMA model can enhance the general well-being and social support level of elderly patients with MHD,and improve the sleep and activity status of elderly patients with MHD.

Hepatitis B virus(HBV)infection is worldwide and poses a serious threat to human health.Existing conventional therapeutic drugs(e.g.,interferon-alpha,nucleoside analogs)can inhibit intrahepatic replication of HBV,but it is difficult to remove HBV covalently closed circular DNA(cccDNA)from the nucleus of hepatocytes,resulting in the virus not being easily cleared and the formation of a chronic infection that is difficult to cure.However,the emergence of targeted drugs is expected to destroy cccDNA making a cure for HBV infection possible.To achieve this,in vitro cell models of HBV infection and replication are needed to screen for targeted drugs.In recent years,in vitro cell models for HBV research have made fundamental progress,providing a platform for a better understanding of virus-host interactions,in vitro studies of the HBV life cycle,and the screening and evaluation of novel antiviral drugs.In this review,the research progress of HBV infection and replication cell models,and the characteristics and limitations of different cell models are reviewed,aiming to provide a basis for exploring the mechanism of complex chronic HBV infection,screening targeted drugs and selecting suitable HBV cell models in vitro.
