Objective This study aimed to explore the changes of interhemispheric functional homotopy in patients with different course of temporal lobe epilepsy based on voxel-mirrored homotopic connectivity(VMHC).Methods Twenty temporal lobe epilepsy patients with a short disease course(TLE-SD),twenty-seven temporal lobe epilepsy patients with a long disease course(TLE-SD)and thirty healthy controls(HC)matched with demo-graphic data were enrolled.All participants finished functional MRI scans and neuropsychological assessment.Brain regions with significant changes between the TLE-SD/TLE-LD group and the healthy controls group were obtained based on the VMHC analysis,and the two-samples t-test was performed in the different brain regions of VMHC values between the two comparisons.The VMHC values of abnormal brain regions in the patient group were extracted and used for correlation analysis with the scale scores.Results Compared with HC,the VMHC values of the putamen and anterior cingulate gyrus were reduced in the TLE-SD group,while the VMHC values of the putamen,anterior cingulate gyrus,superior temporal gyrus and superior frontal gyrus were reduced in the TLE-LD group.Compared with the TLE-SD group,the VMHC values of the superior temporal gyrus in the TLE-LD group was significantly reduced(t=2.918,P=0.033).Correlation analysis showed that the VMHC values of the putamen was positively correlated with the Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA)scores(r=0.442,P=0.021).Conclusions The interhemispheric functional homotopy was impaired in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy and the impairment may be more severe in patients with a long course of disease.Cognitive impairment in patients with temporal lobe epilepsy may be related to the abnormalities of interhemispheric functional homotopy.

Objective:To understand the status of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)infection among blood donors in Beijing from 1994 to 2021, analyze the prevalence characteristics and influencing factors of HIV infection among blood donors, and provide reference for blood donor management and blood safety assurance.Methods:Using descriptive epidemiological method to analyze the situation of HIV enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) combined with nucleic acid detection (NAT), third-party confirmatory laboratory test western blot (WB) result and basic demographic information of infected patients among blood donors.Results:From 1994 to 2021, a total of 6 450 244 person-times participated in blood donation, of which 7 622 were reactive in the primary screening, and 1 553 were positive after the HIV confirmation test, average detection rate is (2.14 per 10 000), the vary of detection rates were statistically significant from year to year( χ2=899.690, P<0.01), with the highest detection rate in 2015 (5.93 per 10 000) and the lowest in 1994 (0). From 2011 to 2021, 3 802 primary screening reactive specimens detected by ELISA combined with NAT were confirmed by WB test, of which 1 191 were positive in the confirmatory test, all of which were ELISA seropositive, of which 682 were NAT (+ ). The gender distribution of the infected population is mainly male (95.30%); the age distribution is mainly 18-30 years old (62.40%); in terms of occupation, the detection rate of infected people is higher among employees, workers and others (including unknown), accounting for 83.26% of the total number of infected persons. The ABO blood group system was dominated by A, B and O (89.7%) and the Rh blood group system was dominated by Rh-positive (99.25%); the detection rate of infection was higher among first-time donors than repeat donors ( χ2=39.587, P<0.01). Conclusions:From 1994 to 2021, the annual number of HIV-infected blood donors in Beijing was greatly affected by the external environment. Although the current screening strategy can reasonably shield HIV-infected people, the detection rate of HIV-infected people in this area is relatively high. In view of the different characteristics of HIV-infected people, follow-up treatment plans should be made to ensure blood safety.
