[Objective] To investigate the antigen and gene frequency distribution of the MNS blood group system in the Han population of voluntary blood donors in Suzhou, and to explore the polymorphism of rare MNS blood group genes, in order to improve the construction of the local rare blood group database. [Methods] A total of 8 034 whole blood samples were randomly collected from Han blood donors at our station from October 2023 to June 2024. The MNS blood group phenotypes were identified using serological methods. Gene frequencies were analyzed and compared with those of ethnic populations in other regions. Rare MNS phenotype samples were subjected to gene sequencing. [Results] The distribution of MNS blood group system phenotypes within the population was as follows: the MM, NN, and MN phenotypes accounted for 23.00%, 27.12%, and 49.88% respectively; the SS, ss, and Ss phenotypes accounted for 0.30%, 90.99%, and 8.70% respectively. The gene frequencies of M, N, S, and s were 0.4794, 0.5206, 0.0465, and 0.9534 respectively. Chi-squared tests confirmed adherence to Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium with P-values of 0.997 and 0.349, showing statistical significance compared to some other regional ethnic populations (P<0.05). Additionally, one rare serological phenotype, S-s-, with a frequency of 0.01%, was identified. [Conclusion] The MNS blood group system in the Han population of voluntary blood donors in Suzhou exhibits polymorphism and regional distribution characteristics. Gene frequencies differ from those observed in other regions of China. It is essential to enhance the establishment of a rare blood type database in Suzhou to provide data support for precise clinical transfusion.

AIM: To investigate the research status and hotspots in the field of ocular trauma over the past two decades using bibliometric software CiteSpace and VOSviewer.METHODS: A bibliometric study. Relevant literature on ocular trauma published in the past 20 a was retrieved from the CNKI database and Web of Science Core Collection in June 2025. EndNote X9 was used for literature management and verification. Microsoft Office Excel 2019 was employed for data management and statistics, with graphical representations created for frequency data. CiteSpace and VOSviewer were utilized to construct and analyze visual maps of authors, institutions, countries/regions, journals, and keywords.RESULTS: A total of 3 437 valid articles were included(911 in Chinese, 2 526 in English). English publications grew at an average annual rate of 12.7%(peak: 289 articles in 2021), while Chinese articles decreased from 31.2% in 2005(peak: 149 articles)to 6.3% in 2024. Chinese scholars showed an early surge in output but a subsequent declining trend, necessitating enhanced sustained research investment and translational outcomes. The United States(682 articles), China(272 articles), and India(206 articles)formed a core collaborative triangle, with a transnational collaboration rate of 68.2%. Six author clusters(e.g., Yan Hua/Zhang Maonian, et al.)demonstrated strong intra-group collaboration but minimal inter-group cooperation. Analysis of high-frequency keywords and burst terms revealed six global research hotspots: 1)ocular trauma score and minimally invasive vitrectomy; 2)optical coherence tomography(OCT)/ultrasound biomicroscopy(UBM)-guided diagnosis and management of intraocular foreign bodies; 3)amniotic membrane transplantation for chemical injury repair; 4)multimodal assessment of corneal perforation injuries; 5)inflammatory indicators for diagnosing endophthalmitis as a traumatic complication; 6)family-based interventions for preventing and controlling pediatric ocular trauma. Trends indicate a shift in research focus from emergency care toward artificial substitutes and full-cycle nursing rehabilitation.CONCLUSION: Differences in research outputs between China and other countries reflect imbalances in prevention policies and medical resource allocation. China should strengthen sustained investment and overcome collaboration barriers to jointly advance ocular trauma research toward full-cycle precision management.

This paper presents an automatic acquisition and analytic procedure of acupuncture manipulation based on optical navigation, aiming at solving the shortcomings of existing acquisition methods of acupuncture manipulation. An acquisition holder installed at the handle tail of filiform needle was designed to display the movement trajectory of the needle during acupuncture delivery by collecting the movement trajectory of holder. The 3-month old male Bama miniature pig was selected as the experimental subject, and 6 points, "Bojian" "Qiangfeng" "Housanli" "Xiaokua" "Huiyang" (BL35) and "Baihui" (GV20), were selected during acupuncture manipulation. The optical navigation system was used to collect the real-time data, and these data were per-processed and analyzed using mean filtering and Fourier transform. The acupuncture procedure was divided into 3 stages, inserting, lifting-thrusting, and twisting. The results showed that the accuracy was 96.3% at lifting-thrusting stage, and that was 100.0% at twisting stage. The decomposition effect of the entire procedure was satisfactory. This study provides a new approach to the quantitative analysis of acupuncture manipulation. In the future, it needs to further optimize the algorithm and expand the sample size so as to improve the accuracy of this analytic technique.

Zebrafish larvae are useful for identifying chemicals against lateral line (LL) hair cell (HC) damage and this type of chemical screen mainly focuses on searching for protectors against cell death. To expand the candidate pool of HC protectors, a self-built acoustic escape response (AER)-detecting system was developed to apply both low-frequency near-field sound transmission and AER image acquisition/processing modules. The device quickly confirmed the changed LL HC functions caused by most known ototoxins, protectors, and neural transmission modifiers, or knockdown of LL HC-expressing genes. With ten devices wired in tandem, five 'hit' chemicals were identified from 124 cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors to partially restore cisplatin-damaged AER in less than a day. AS2863619, ribociclib, and SU9516 among the hits, protected the HCs in the mouse cochlea. Therefore, using free-swimming larval zebrafish, the self-made AER-detecting device can efficiently identify compounds that are protective against HC damage, including cell death and loss-of-function.

Objective: To investigate the association between emotional intelligence and sleep problems at the symptom level among junior and senior high school students, so as to provide new insights for interventions targeting junior and senior high school students sleep disorders. Methods: From November 2023 to May 2024, a stratified cluster random sampling method was employed to select 3 531 first year junior high school and first year senior high school students from 6 schools in Guangyuan City and Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture in Sichuan Province, as well as Lhasa City in Tibet Autonomous Region. The Insomnia Severity Index Scale and the Wong and Law Emotional Intelligence Scale(WLEIS) were used to assess sleep problems and emotional intelligence. A network analysis was performed to explore the relationship between emotional intelligence and sleep disorders, and a gender based network comparison analysis was conducted. Results: The reported rate of sleep problems among junior and senior high school students was 47.3%, with severe sleep problems of 2.2%. Difficulty maintaining sleep, worry about sleep, and emotional application were the core symptoms in the network (node strength values: 1.11, 0.98, and 0.82, respectively). Dissatisfaction with sleep and emotional application served as bridge symptoms connecting emotional intelligence and sleep problems (bridge strength values: 1.77 and 1.59, respectively). The edge weights of the emotional intelligence and sleep problems network differed significantly between genders (maximum difference in edge weight values was 0.13， P <0.05). Conclusions Emotional application ability and dissatisfaction with sleep are the key nodes in the network connecting emotional intelligence and sleep problems. Targeted efforts to enhance emotional application ability may effectively reduce the risk of sleep problems among junior and senior high school students.

[Objective] To explore the clinical significance of the IgG1 and IgG3 subtypes of red blood cell unexpected antibodies. [Methods] The IgG1 and IgG3 typing tests were performed on the IgG type alloantibodies of Rh, Duffy and Kidd blood group systems detected in our hospital. Additionally, IgG1 and IgG3 titers were measured and monocyte monolayer assay was performed on 12 cases of anti-E to analyze the characteristics of different IgG subtypes of anti-E. [Results] Among the 115 cases of unexpected IgG antibodies, 81 cases of monospecific antibodies were predominantly IgG1 (58.02%, 47/81); 17 cases of mixed antibodies were predominantly IgG1+IgG3 (47.06%, 16/34). In monocyte monolayer assays, the phagocytic rate and antibody titer of IgG1 and IgG3 antibodies were positively correlated, while in IgG1+IgG3 complex antibodies, it was mainly associated with IgG3, with higher antibody titers correlating with higher phagocytic rates. When the anti-E titers were 32 for all, the IgG1+IgG3 complex had the highest phagocytosis rate, followed by IgG3 alone, and IgG1 alone had the lowest phagocytic rate. [Conclusion] Monospecific antibodies among unexpected antibodies are primarily IgG1, while mixed antibodies are mainly IgG1+IgG3. The results of MMA indicate that the immune response caused by the IgG1+IgG3 complex is more severe. Therefore, when antibodies like anti-E coexist with other antibodies, even if the titer is low, the immune response may still be severe, which should be taken seriously in clinical practice.

[Objective] To investigate the clinical characteristics of patients who underwent multiple platelet transfusions (≥2 times) in Suzhou over the past 5 years (2017-2022), as to provide new insights for patients requiring long-term and substantial platelet transfusions. [Methods] A retrospective analysis was conducted on the type of diseases, volume and frequency of platelet transfusions in patients who were hospitalized in Suzhou and received multiple (≥2 times) apheresis platelet transfusions from August 2017 to August 2022. Compatibility transfusions were also performed for a subset of acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) patients who completed HLA antibody testing and genotyping. [Results] From 2017 to 2022, the clinical consumption of platelets in Suzhou has increased annually (P<0.001), and patients who received apheresis platelets were mainly concentrated in hematological diseases represented by hematopoietic or lymphoid tissue tumors, especially AML patients (48.81%, 1 188/2 434). The age group with the highest per capita number of transfusions among AML patients was predominantly 21-30 years old (25 times per person). After genotype-compatible transfusion for eligible AML patients, the CCI significantly increased (P<0.001). [Conclusion] For male AML patients aged 21-30 and 61-70 in Suzhou, conducting platelet antibody screening and genetic testing before platelet transfusion can improve the efficiency of transfusion, reduce the incidence of PTR, and save blood resources through personalized matching transfusions.

Objective:To explore the mechanism of Huangqi Jiedu Decoction (HQJD) in the treatment of breast cancer with the syndrome of Zheng deficiency and toxic incandescence by network pharmacology and molecular docking technology.Methods:The main active ingredients and targets of HQJD were screened through the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) systematic pharmacology database and analysis platform. The relevant targets of breast cancer with the syndrome of Zheng-deficiency, toxic-incandescence were obtained using OMIM, GeneGards and Drugbank databases, and the relevant targets of HQJD for the treatment of breast cancer with the syndrome of Zheng-deficiency and toxic incandescence were obtained by intersection; The Cytoscape 3.9.1 software was used to build the protein protein interaction (PPI) network and the " drug active component target disease" network on the basis of String 11.0 database, and the core active components and core targets of HQJD in treating breast cancer with the syndrome of Zheng-deficiency and toxic-incandescence were inferred according to the topological parameters. gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis were performed on core targets using R language; and molecular docking verification on the main active ingredients and core targets were conducted.Results:230 effective targets of active ingredients of HQJD were screened, and 15 467 active ingredients of breast cancer with syndrome of Zheng-deficiency/toxic-incandescence were obtained; 217 intersection targets; GO function enrichment analysis showed that the treatment of HQJD for breast cancer with the syndrome of Zheng-deficiency and toxic-incandescence mainly involved oxidative stress and cytochemical stress; The enrichment analysis of KEGG pathway showed that HQJD treatment of breast cancer with the syndrome of Zheng-deficiency and toxic-incandescence was mainly related to phosphatidylinositol 3-protein kinase B (PI3K-Akt), interleukin-17 (IL-17) and other signal pathways. The molecular docking results showed that the main active ingredients such as β-sitosterol, stigmasterol, luteolin had good binding ability with core targets.Conclusions:HQJD has the characteristics of multi-component, multi target and multi pathway in the treatment of breast cancer with syndrome of Zheng-deficiency and toxic-incandescence, and its main mechanism may be related to PI3K-Akt, IL-17, P53 and other signal pathways.

Objective:This study aimed to explore the status of radiological Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) among school-aged children in Chamdo City, Tibet, through a 3-year monitoring survey, providing epidemiological evidence for prevention and control strategies.Methods:The target areas for this study were Luolong, Bianba, and Basu counties in Chamdo City, Tibet Autonomous Region, identified as having the most severe historical cases of KBD. Children aged 7-12 years attending school were enrolled as study subjects. Anteroposterior X-ray films of the right-hand were taken, and radiological diagnoses were made based on the "Diagnosis of Kashin-Beck Disease" criteria (WS/T 207-2010). Two experienced researchers independently reviewed the X-rays, and intra- and inter-group consistency were assessed using weighted Kappa values and percentage agreement. Cross-sectional surveys were conducted in 2017 and 2020 to describe the X-ray detection rates of KBD, and logistic regression analysis was employed to construct a predictive model of risk factors for radiological KBD cases.Results:In 2017, a total of 5,711 children aged 7-12 years in Chamdo City, Tibet, participated in the baseline cross-sectional survey (average age 9.2 years, 48.0% female), with 28 cases of radiological KBD. The age- and gender-standardized prevalence rate was 0.527%. In 2020, 6,771 participants (average age 9.3 years, 49.5% female) underwent a second cross-sectional survey, with 9 cases of radiological KBD and a standardized prevalence rate of 0.134%. Logistic regression analysis indicated that older age [ OR=2.439, 95% CI(1.299, 4.580), P=0.006] and female gender [ OR=8.157, 95% CI(1.016, 65.528), P=0.048] were independent risk factors for radiological KBD cases. Conversely, higher residential altitude, under the premise of Tibet's high altitude, was a protective factor [ OR=0.995, 95% CI(0.990, 0.999), P=0.032). Conclusion:The radiographically positive detection rate of KBD among school-aged children in Chamdo City, Tibet Autonomous Region, is at an extremely low level and showing a declining trend, reaching the historical standard in 2020. Considering the absence of positive signs in affected children, it suggests that local KBD has been effectively eliminated.

Retzius-sparing robot assisted radical prostatectomy (RS-RARP) can significantly improve the immediate urinary continence without increasing the positive rate of surgical margin.However, the learning curve is long, and fewer than 10% of the surgeons can master it.Therefore,we have optimized the procedures of RS-RARP, applying radical prostatectomy with retrograde release of neurovascular bundle to preserve it to the maximum extent.Urethral anastomosis can be performed with only one suture, which eliminates the need for Hem-o-lok and reduces subsequent complications.Our team routinely carries out this operation, and conlcudes that this surgical method can achieve good tumor control, good urinary continence, fast recovery of sexual function, few complications, and strong operability.This article details the key steps and operation experience of this technique.
