Chinese Journal of Blood Transfusion 2021;34(1):72-74
【Objective】 To explore the factors affecting the off-site vasovagal reactions in whole blood donors, aimed at providing references for formulating interventions. 【Methods】 The off-site vasovagal reactions in whole blood donors in 2019 was investigated in terms of gender, age, frequency of blood donation, weight and season were classified and analyzed. 【Results】 Among the 42 874 donors who donated 400 mL of whole blood, 67 had non-severe off-site vasovagal reaction, accounting for 0.16%, and none developed severe reaction. Single-factor and multi-factor correlation analysis showed that the age (18~25 years old) and weight (< 55 Kg) were the main influencing factors of off-site vasovagal reaction, while gender, blood donation frequency and season showed no statistical significance. 【Conclusion】 We should pay close attention to the factors predicting the off-site vasovagal reaction and formulate corresponding interventions to reduce the reaction rates, so as to improve the quality of blood donation service, and ensure the safety of blood donors.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the application of multi-slice CT (MSCT) perfusion scan technique in predicting renal function recovery after unilateral hydronephrosis treatment.MethodsThirtyeight patients with unilateral obstructive hydronephrosis not shown on intravenous urography (IVU) and a normal contralateral kidney were recruited for this study.Patients were divided into detected (D) and undetected (UD) groups depending on whether the IVU detected urinary tract obstruction.All patients underwent plain abdominal X-ray,gray-scale ultrasonography,excretory urography and MSCT perfusion scan before and after the treatment.Patients were followed-up at six months or more after the treatment for a mean duration of 12.5 months (range from 6 to 22 ).ResultsOf the 38 cases,22 cases were in group D,16 cases were in group UD.On MSCT,renal cortex blood flow (BF) and blood volume ( BV ) value after treatment in group D were 561.1 ± 165.4 ml/( 100 g · min) and 35.9 ± 11.3 ml/100 g compared with before treatment rates of 361.6 ±109.7 ml/(100g· min) and24.1 ±10.2 ml/100g,t=-3.38,-2.34,P<0.01,0.05.In the UD group,the differences of these parameters were after treatment 38.7 ± 15.4 ml/(100 g · min),10.306 ± 4.925 ml/100 g and before treatment 39.1 ± 22.5 ml/( 100 g · min) and 8.7 ± 4.4 ml/100 g,P > 0.05.In the aspects of BF and BV,there were statistically significant differences between group D and group U D both before and after the treatment,t=9.09,4.15,P < 0.01.ConclusionsM SCT perfusion can provide a valuable prediction technique of the renal function recovery in patients with unilateral obstructive hydronephrosis.Improvement of renal function can be expected after relief of obstructive hydronephrosis if the patients have a BF 361.6 ml/( 100 g · min) and BV 24.1 ml/100 g or greater measured by MSCT perfusion.
