Objective:To investigate the prevention and treatment status of venous thromboembolism (VTE) of pregnant women in general hospitals and specialized hospitals in China.Methods:This study was a cross-sectional survey about VTE prevention and treatment in 112 hospitals across China from January 1st to December 31st, 2019, including general information, resource accessibility, hospital system and strategy. According to the characteristics, the hospitals were divided into general hospital group (70 hospitals) and specialized hospital group (42 hospitals). The basic information, VTE diagnosis and treatment resources, prevention systems and the preference of the VTE risk assessment form of the two groups were compared. Logistic regression was used to analyze the proportion of VTE incidence and related factors in the two groups of hospitals.Results:(1) The median annual delivery volume of the general hospital group was significantly lower than that of the specialized hospital group (3 428 vs 9 969 cases, P<0.01), the diagnostic accessibility of CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) was significantly higher than that of the specialized hospital [92.9% (65/70) vs 59.5% (25/42), P<0.01], and the proportion of obstetric VTE risk assessment was significantly higher than that of the specialized hospital group [85.7% (60/70) vs 66.7% (28/42), P=0.017]. (2) Among the 88 hospitals using the VTE risk assessment sheet, the utilization rate of the evaluation sheet recommended by the obstetric VTE guideline in specialized hospitals (78.6%, 22/28) was higher than that of general hospitals (48.3%, 29/60), and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.007). (3) The proportion of VTE incidence in general hospital group was 0.126% (360/286 517), and the proportion of VTE incidence in specialized hospital group was 0.032% (154/484 111). Logistic regression analysis showed that the OR value of the specialized hospital group was 0.253 (95% CI: 0.209-0.305) and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01) compared with the general hospital group. After adjusting the hospital level, B-ultrasonography and CTPA accessibility, whether to establish a risk assessment and obstetric VTE system, the proportion of VTE incidence in specialized hospitals was still lower than that in general hospitals ( OR=0.307, 95% CI: 0.251-0.376, P<0.01). Conclusions:General hospitals have higher access to resources for diagnosing VTE than specialized hospitals, and the VTE evaluation system is better implemented. The utilization rate of the obstetric VTE guidelines in specialized hospitals is higher than that of general hospitals.

Objective To explore the effect of ATP fluorescence detection on on-site monitoring and supervision of healthcare-associated infection management .Methods ATP bioluminescence analyzer was used to detect the con-tamination status of hands of health care workers(HCWs),the object surfaces,and the cleaning tools in all quarters of 2015,the detection results were timely given feedback,and improvement measures were put forward.Results A total of 1 294 specimens were detected,the overall qualified rate was 62.75%.The qualified rates of hands of HC-Ws,object surfaces,and cleaning tools increased from 54.35%,50.30%,and 60.26% in the first quarter to 76.42%,64.80%,and 79.52% in the fourth quarter respectively,tendency chi-square test showed that difference was statistically significant (all P <0.05).The median of relative light unit (RLU)of hands of HCWs,object sur-faces,and cleaning tools were 20.00,85.00,and 35.00,respectively.Conclusion ATP fluorescence detection for on-site monitoring and supervision for cleaning and disinfection effect can promote the continuous quality improve-ment of hand hygiene and environmental cleanliness.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the correlation between polymorphisms in human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DQB 1 and primary liver cancer (PLC) with hepatitis B virus (HBV) and to search for susceptibility and resistance genes related to PLC with HBV.
METHODSOne hundred and eighteen patients with HBV-related liver cancer were enrolled from the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University. Patients were stratified by family history of hepatitis B (39 with; 79 without) and HBV DNA positivity (60 positive, ≥1*10(3) IU/mL; 58 negative, <1*10(3) IU/mL). The HLA-DQB 1 genotype was determined by PCR and direct nucleotide sequence analysis genotyping. Allele frequencies were calculated by the direct counting method. Betweengroup comparisons were carried out with the Chi-square test or Mann-Whitney U test.
RESULTSThe allele frequencies of HLA-DQBl*0202 and HLA-DQBl*0301 were significantly higher in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) than the control group (1 1.8% and 29.3% vs. 7.6% and 21.1%; U=2.43 and 3.09, P<0.05, RR=1.581 and 1.477). The allele frequencies of HLA-DQB1*0202 and HLADQB 1*0301 were significantly higher in patients with HCC and familial history of hepatitis B than in the normal population (14.1% and 29.5% vs. 7.6% and 21.1%; U=3.76 and 3.16, P less than 0.05, RR=1.928 and 1.495). The allele frequency of HLA-DQB 1*0301 was significantly higher in the HBV DNA positive group than in the HBV DNA negative group (35.0% vs. 23.3%; x2=5.543, P less than 0.05, RR=1.775), while the frequency of HLA-DQB1*0302 was significantly lower in the HBV DNA positive group than in the HBV DNA negative group (10.9% vs. 14.7%; x2=4.604, P<0.05, RR=0.229).
CONCLUSIONSThe HLA-DQB 1 *0202 and HLA-DQB 1*0301 alleles may represent susceptibility for PLC with hepatitis B as well as for familial hepatitis B liver cancer. The HLA-DQB 1*0301 allele may support replication of HBV DNA, facilitating progression to liver cancer. The HLA-DQB1*0302 allele may inhibit replication of HBV DNA and reduce the incidence of liver cancer.

Objective:To investigate the expression of microRNA125a in infiltrating macrophages during myocardial ischemia reperfusion, and to analyze the effect of microRNA125a on the polarization of infiltrating macrophages during myocardial ischemia reperfusion.Methods:The rat model of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion was established. Myocardial injury tissues were taken, infiltrated macrophages were isolated, and RNA was extracted. qRT-PCR was used to detect M1 and M2 markers in macrophages and evaluate the types of infiltrated macrophages. Subsequently the expression level of microRNA125a in infiltrating macrophages was detected. Finally, the effect of microRNA125a on macrophage polarization was further elucidated.Results:Macrophages in myocardium of ischemia reperfusion showed high expression of M1 markers (TNF-alpha and IL-8), presenting M1 macrophages. At the same time, microRNA125a was also highly expressed in this macrophage. Knockdown or overexpression of microRNA125a in macrophages in vitro can affect the macrophages polarization.Conclusions:Macrophages in myocardial ischemia reperfusion are M1 type, and microRNA125a is highly expressed in this macrophage and promotes its migration to M1 type.
