Objective: To establish a machine learning-based precision blood donor recruitment model at the county level and assess its generalizability and applicability. Methods: A retrospective study was conducted using blood donation and SMS recruitment data from the Taicang Branch of the Suzhou Blood Center between 2019 and 2024. Multiple machine learning algorithms were employed, including extreme gradient boosting, support vector machine, k-nearest neighbor, logistic regression, decision tree, random forest, and multilayer perceptron. These were combined with techniques such as synthetic minority oversampling, undersampling, and cost-sensitive learning (using MFE and MSFE loss functions). Model parameters were optimized through grid search to identify the best-performing model. Results: In a prospective comparative study against conventional methods, the machine learning models increased the recruitment success rate among high-willingness donors by an average of 129.15%, and the recruitment efficiency per SMS improved by 125.02% compared with the traditional method. Under full-scale SMS sending, the recruitment rate per SMS increased by 42.61%, and SMS sending efficiency improved by 31.77%, significantly enhancing recruitment performance. Conclusion: This study represents the first application of a machine learning-based precision donor recruitment model at the county-level in China. The precise recruitment framework not only improves recruitment efficiency and reduces recruitment costs but also demonstrates strong scalability and generalizability. It provides a scientific and feasible intelligent pathway to ensure the safety and sustainability of the blood supply.

Objective:To explore the clinical phenotype and genetic etiology for a Chinese pedigree affected with Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD).Methods:A pedigree with ADPKD diagnosed at the Department of Gynaecology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University in December 2020 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the pedigree was collected, and whole exome sequencing (WES) was carried out for the proband. Candidate variants were verified by Sanger sequencing of the proband and her relatives. This study was approved by the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University (Ethics No. KS-2018-KY-36).Results:Fetal ultrasonography showed increased volume and parenchymal echogenicity in both kidneys. The fetus was found to harbor c. 11098C>T (p.R3700C) and c.11039T>C (p.F3680S) compound heterozygous variants of the PKD1 gene, which were respectively inherited from its mother and father. Based on the guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), both variants were predicted to be likely pathogenic (PM1+ PM2_Supporting+ PP3). Conclusion:The c. 11098C>T (p.R3700C) and c. 11039T>C (p.F3680S) compound heterozygous variants of the PKD1 gene probably underlay the ADPKD in the fetus. Above finding has provided guidance for the genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis for this pedigree.

In clinical application, factors such as patient willingness and condition should be fully considered, and personalized treatment plans should be provided to maximize patient benefits.

Objective:To understand the status of frailty in postoperative gastric cancer patients and to explore its influence on symptom groups during the initial oral chemotherapy. Provide theoretical guidance for symptom management of cancer patients.Methods:A total of 133 postoperative gastric cancer patients who received initial oral chemotherapy were selected as subjects by cross section survey from Octomber 2021 to Octomber 2022 in Department of Oncology, First People′s Hospital of Changzhou by couvenient sampling method. Baseline data of patients before chemotherapy were investigated by general data questionnaire and Frailty Phenotype. Symptoms on the 2nd and 14th day of chemotherapy were investigated by M. D. Anderson Symptom Inventory-Gastrointestinal Cancer Module.Results:The incidence of frailty in postoperative gastric cancer patients was 48.9% (65/133). On the 2nd day of chemotherapy, there were four symptom clusters, namely emotional symptom cluster, gastrointestinal symptom cluster, disease related symptom cluster and neurological symptom cluster, and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 61.20%. On the 14th day of chemotherapy, there were five symptom clusters after gastric cancer specific symptom cluster appeared. and the cumulative variance contribution rate was 63.90%. On the 2nd day of chemotherapy, frailty had statistical significance on emotional symptom cluster, gastrointestinal symptom cluster andneurological symptom cluster ( t = 3.52, 2.66, 5.48, all P<0.05), which explained 7.2%, 4.1% and 15.1% of symptom group severity, respectively. On the 14th day of chemotherapy, frailty still had statistical significance on emotional symptom cluster, gastrointestinal symptom cluster and neurological symptom cluster ( t = 3.41, 5.47, 4.06, all P<0.05), which explained 7.1%, 13.2% and 9.6% of symptom group severity, respectively. Conclusions:The incidence of frailty in patients with postoperative gastric cancer was at a relatively high level. The emotional symptom cluster, gastrointestinal symptom cluster, and neurological system related symptom cluster in patients with frailty were more serious at different time points.

objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of pneumonia in patients with aplastic anemia for improving early prevention and clinical diagnosis. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted for patients with aplastic anemia treated in our hosipital from June 2013 to April 2018. The clinical data of pneumonia were reviewed and analyzed in terms of radiological findings, pathogen distribution, and related risk factors. Results The clinical manifestations are atypical in patients with aplastic anemia. The imaging findings suggested that the infection was mainly bilateral pulmonary infection. The common pathogens were gram-negative bacteria such as Klebsiella pneumoniae. Disease type, agranulocytosis and low serum albumin level were independent risk factors for pneumonia in patients with aplastic anemia. Regular immunosuppressive therapy is a protective factor for pneumonia in patients with aplastic anemia. Conclusions The clinical manifestations of pneumonia are diverse in patients with aplastic anemia. The pathogens are mainly gram-negative bacteria. Empirical use of β-lactam-β-lactamase inhibitor combinations or quinolones is beneficial for controlling infection. Regular immunosuppressive therapy, recovery of hematopoietic function, nutritional support are effective measures to reduce the incidence of pneumonia in patients with aplastic anemia.

Objective To establish and assess the new method of APTT assay based on the combinations of Mg2+and Ca2+for lupus anticoagulants(LA)measurements.Methods This prospective study included 309 trisodium citrate anticoagulated plasma samples from 244 random patients and 65 patients with different autoimmune diseases(AID)to establish and assess the method of LA measurement, respectively.Final concentrations of 0,2.0, 4.0, 8.0,16.0 mmol/L Mg2+were added into 25 mmol/L Ca2+solution, and Actin reagent was used to measured plasma APTT of 94 patients.The applied concentration of Mg2+-Ca2+solution was confirmed through the special and significant alteration of APTT from LA-positive and -negative plasma observed in the presence of Mg 2+(test solution).Based on Actin reagent use,the test solution and 25 mmol/L Ca2+solution were applied to measure APTT of patients and normal individuals, respectively, and the ratio of Mg2+-Ca2+-APTT to Ca2+-APTT(Mg2+-Ca2+-APTT indices)and normalized Mg2+-Ca2+-APTT indices(NAR)were calculated, respectively.Mixed plasma NAR was measured,and CV%was calculated to evaluate the repeatability and stability of Mg 2+-Ca2+-APTT method.APTT of 150 patients was measured with the test solution and Actin reagent to calculate Mg 2+-Ca2+-APTT indices, and normalized LA ratio was determined with dRVVT method.The applicability of Mg2+-Ca2+-APTT assay was assessed through comparisons of the results from the two methods.Finally, NAR and NLR of 65 patients with AID(including 26 SLE patients)were measured with Mg2+-Ca2+-APTT assay and dRVVT method, respectively, and ROC curve was also used to assess the efficacy of the two methods for LA measurements.Results In all LA-negative plasma,APTT increased from 28.1 ±4.5 s to 61.2 ±7.9 s in normal APTT group,47.2 ±8.9 s to 97.5 ±10.3 s in increased APTT group,and 27.6 ± 5.1 s to 61.2 ±7.9 s in ACA-positive group when Mg2+increased from 0 to 8 mmol/L in Mg2+-Ca2+solution(F=34.12, 38.9 and 28.35,P<0.01).Following increased Mg2+concentration, APTT shortened from 0 to 4.0 mmol/L, but simultaneously prolonged from 4.0 to 16.0 mmol/L in LA-positive plasma with prolonged or normal APTT(F=31.55 and 39.51, P<0.01), and APTT was significantly higher in 8.0 mmol/L than that in 4.0 mmol/L(P<0.001).The test concentration of Mg 2+/Ca2+solution was 4.0 mmol/L.The within, inter-day CV% of NAR was 1.39%,2.30%, and 3.44%, respectively. According to the judging criteria of <0.966 and >1.034 of Mg2+/Ca2+indices, there was 141 patients with increased indices and NLR <1.20, and 9 patients with decreased ones and NLR≥1.20 in all 150 patients.The area under ROC curve of NAR and NLR for LA detection was 0.913(95%CI:0.848-0.978) and 0.892(95%CI:0.817-0.966), respectively, and the cut-off value was 0.87 and 1.13, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of NAR(85% and 77%)was higher than that of NLR(81% and 74%), respectively.The accordant rate of positive,negative,and total results between NAR and NLR was 94.4%, 98.5%,and 98%,respectively.Conclusion The method of APTT assay based on Mg2+combining Ca2+for LA measurements is feasible,and can be used to detect plasma LA of patients.
