ObjectiveTo investigate the current professional competency among full-time and part-time personnel of the nosocomial infection control administration in Shanghai, so as to provide a scientific basis for future training programmes. MethodsIn December 2024, a questionnaire survey was conducted by the Shanghai Nosocomial Infection Quality Control Center among full-time and part-time personnel of the nosocomial infection control administration across medical institutions at various levels and types in Shanghai using convenience sampling method. The questionnaire consisted of two parts: demographic information and professional competency assessment. The professional competency scale comprised four dimensions: fundamental cognition, basic skills, professional expertise, and personal qualities, totaling 35 items. ResultsA total of 1 179 questionnaires were distributed, with 1 144 valid responses collected, yielding an effective response rate of 97.03%. Statistically significant differences were observed among full-time and part-time personnel of the nosocomial infection control administration in terms of age (t=5.32, P=0.021), professional background (χ2=9.90, P=0.019), educational qualifications (χ2=19.10, P<0.001), professional titles (χ2=12.60, P=0.002), and the levels of medical institutions (χ2=111.08, P<0.001). The scores of full-time personnel of the nosocomial infection control administration in fundamental cognition [92 (82, 99) points] and basic skills [88 (78, 96) points] were significantly higher than those of part-time personnel(Z=-2.21, P=0.027;Z=-2.74, P=0.006). Statistically significant differences were found in fundamental cognition scores between full-time and part-time personnel of the nosocomial infection control administration regarding occupational safety protection, definition of healthcare-associated infection outbreaks, types of drug-resistant bacteria and their prevention and control strategies, and transmission routes of different infectious diseases (all P<0.05). Statistically significant differences were also observed in basic skills scores including proficient use of monitoring platforms, formulation and revision of standard operating procedures (SOPs), independent completion of targeted surveillance, guidance on basic infection control skills, guidance for key departments, and follow-up of personnel with occupational exposure (all P<0.05). However, no statistically significant differences were found in scores of professional knowledge and personal qualities (P>0.05). ConclusionThere are certain differences in professional competency between full-time and part-time personnel of the nosocomial infection control administration in Shanghai in terms of fundamental cognition and basic skills. Part-time personnel can effectively improve their professional competency through systematic training on basic infection control knowledge and practical skills, thereby comprehensively enhancing the overall quality of the nosocomial infection administration team.

Objective: To explore the application effectiveness of healthcare failure mode and effect analysis (HFMEA) in optimizing intelligent blood logistics transport pathways for safety assurance. Methods: Data from 1 851 cases of intelligent blood logistics transport were collected between September 2023 and March 2025. Based on the implementation phases of HFMEA measures, the cases were divided into a control group (n=120), observation group 1 (n=219), and observation group 2 (n=1 512). Through systematic analysis of the transport processes, hazard scoring and decision tree analysis were conducted for each process, and phased optimization measures were implemented for high-risk failure modes. Results: The transport duration of intelligent blood logistics was 35.5 (20.8, 71.1) min in the control group, 25.1 (10.9, 40.7) min in observation group 1, and 9.9 (4.2, 44.5) min in observation group 2. Observation group 2 exhibited significantly shorter transport time compared to both observation group 1 and the control group, with statistically significant differences between groups (P<0.000 1). Conclusion: The implementation of HFMEA-driven measures significantly reduced intelligent blood logistics transport duration, thereby fostering the evolution of smart hospital ecosystems while enhancing healthcare service quality and operational efficiency.

Based on the theory of "shaoyang(少阳) resembling the pivot" and collateral diseases, this article proposes that pulmonary fibrosis (PF) can be divided into three stages including wind bi (痹), constraint bi, and atrophy bi. The core pathogenesis of PF is the obstruction of the pivot and pulmonary collateral obstruction. In terms of treatment, the basic principles are to harmonize and regulate the pivot, and to promote the circulation of the lung collaterals. Depending on the different characteristics of the "essence-attribute-function", treatment methods such as harmonizing and regulating the pivot, resolving phlegm and removing stasis, supplementing deficiency and harmonizing collaterals are suggested. This approach ensures the regulation of the pivot, smooth circulation of qi and blood, unblocking of the lung collaterals and nourishing the lung body, achieving the goals of balancing the ascending and descending of qi, removing phlegm and stasis, and relieving cough and wheezing.

To conduct a bibliometric and keyword analysis on the domestic and international literature of medical artificial intelligence (AI) ethics, explore the research frontiers, hotspots, and development trends in this field, and provide references for promoting the construction of China’s ethical governance system on medical AI. Utilizing CiteSpace software, a comparative analysis was conducted between the reviewed domestic and international literature regarding their publication volume, author and institutional collaboration networks, as well as keyword co-occurrence, clustering, timeline graph, and burst, to explore the research hotspots and development trends in the field. A total of 2 393 Chinese and English publications were included. In recent years, research topics in medical AI ethics both domestically and internationally focused on three aspects, encompassing their theoretical research, emerging domains and their ethical risks, as well as the ethical governance and regulation of medical AI. International research hotspots included federated learning, computer-aided detection, informed consent, and other aspects, whereas domestic research hotspots were smart healthcare, responsibility ethics, ethical values, and other aspects. Internationally, greater attention was placed on ethical issues concerning population health and healthcare in the public health domain, whereas domestic research topics tended to focus more on theoretical discussions and the establishment of ethical principles. The ethical governance of medical AI represents a shared global challenge, necessitating enhanced research into both the variances and commonalities in this field.

Objective To analyze the influenza-like illness (ILI) data in Ordos City from 2017 to 2023 and conduct nucleic acid detection of the virus to understand the local influenza epidemic situation, and to provide a reliable basis for influenza prevention and control in the city. Methods Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) was used to identify virus subtypes in ILI throat swab samples. Comparisons of positive rates were conducted using the chi-square test, with a significance level of α=0.05. Results From 2017 to 2023, a total of 3,283,434 outpatient and emergency visits were recorded at the Ordos City Central Hospital, including 74,159 ILI cases, with an ILI proportion of 2.26%. The majority of ILI cases (74.43%) occurred in children aged 0~14 years old. The overall positive rate of influenza virus nucleic acid detection was 10.87%, with the highest proportion being subtype A (seasonal H3) at 43.03%. The highest detection rate was observed in the 5~14 years age group, with statistically significant differences in positive rates across age groups (χ2=155.638, P<0.001). Influenza peaks occurred mainly from November to March of the following year. From January to April, three types of influenza were prevalent alternately or mixed, while from October to December, subtype A (seasonal H3) predominated. Positive rates varied significantly across months (χ2=250.923, P<0.001). The temporal trends of ILI proportions and PCR-positive rates were consistent. Conclusion Influenza in Ordos City exhibits distinct seasonal and age distribution characteristics, with alternating or mixed circulation of three virus types. Continued efforts are needed to strengthen influenza surveillance, especially the prevention and control of influenza in infants and adolescents.

Objective: To report severe hemolytic adverse reactions caused by intravenous infusion of human immunoglobulin (IVIG) in a child, and to alert clinical staff to be aware of IVIG-associated hemolytic reactions to ensure transfusion safety in pediatric populations. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on a case of severe hemolytic reaction following high-dose IVIG infusion in a pediatric patient with severe pneumonia. Results: Following high-dose IVIG infusion, severe hemolytic adverse reactions developed, clinically manifesting as decreased hemoglobin, progressively elevated bilirubin and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and gradual hepatomegaly. IgG antibodies were detected in the patient's erythrocytes and plasma. Conclusion: When patients passively acquire IgG antibodies through IVIG infusion, timely monitoring of antibody titers in vivo is critical. For subsequent transfusions, red blood cell products that lack the corresponding antigens should be selected to mitigate hemolysis. Clinicians should remain vigilant against rare but severe hemolytic adverse reactions.

Purpose:
Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) in children, adolescents, and young adults is rare and differs from older adults. This study evaluated the outcomes of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in young Korean CML patients during the tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) era.
Materials and Methods:
A retrospective analysis of 35 CML patients aged < 40 years who underwent allogeneic HSCT from 2009 to 2019 was conducted using Korean Blood and Marrow Transplantation Registry data. Patients were grouped by age < 20 years at HSCT (group 1, n=15) and 20-40 years at HSCT (group 2, n=20). Survival outcomes including overall survival (OS), relapse-free survival (RFS), and event-free survival (EFS) were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method.
Results:
The median time between diagnosis and HSCT was 8.9 months. All the patients achieved engraftment but platelet recovery was significantly slower in group 1 (p=0.034). Acute and chronic graft-versus-host disease occurred in 54.3% and 34.3%, respectively. Five-year OS, RFS, and EFS rates of total patients were 66.8%, 50.8%, and 47.6%, with better OS was observed in group 1 by multivariable analysis (p=0.048). Disease status at HSCT was a significant predictor of OS (p=0.028), RFS (p=0.003), and EFS (p=0.004). Disease progression occurred in 13 out of 35 patients (37.1%); treatment-related mortality accounted for 63.6% of deaths (7 out of 11).
Conclusion
When performed at a younger age, allogeneic HSCT result in superior outcome in CML. Achieving remission before HSCT is critical for improved outcomes, highlighting the importance of pretransplant remission via optimal TKI strategies and minimal residual disease monitoring.

Objective:To establish a niraparib-resistant ovarian cancer cell line and preliminarily explore its biological characteristics and metabolic signatures.Methods:(1) Using ovarian adenocarcinoma cell line A2780 as parental cells, the niraparib-resistant cell line A2780-NiraR was established by the method of concentration gradient increased induction, and its morphological characteristics were observed using inverted phase-contrast microscope. The half-inhibitory concentration (IC 50) of niraparib was determined by cytotoxicity assay. (2) Cell proliferation was determined by cell count kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and direct cell counting assay, cell cycle distribution was analyzed by flow cytometry. (3) The differential metabolites between A2780 and A2780-NiraR cells were detected by non-target metabolomics based on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-high resolution mass spectrometry (UPLC/HRMS). Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis was conducted on the above differential metabolites to explore related metabolic pathways. Results:(1) Compared with the parental A2780 cells, A2780-NiraR cells exhibited predominantly short-spindle or oval morphology with reduced cellular projections and indistinct cell borders. The IC 50 values of niraparib were 3.17 and 26.19 μmol/L against A2780 cells and A2780-NiraR cells, respectively ( F=98.50, P<0.001). (2) A2780-NiraR cells had a slower proliferation rate compared with A2780 cells ( F=146.80, P<0.001). The doubling time of A2780-NiraR cells [(37.5±1.9) hours] was significantly longer than that of A2780 cells [(14.5±1.0) hours; t=10.50, P<0.001]. Compared with the parental A2780 cells, A2780-NiraR cells had a significantly lower S phase fraction [(44.5±0.7)% in A2780 cells, (30.2±2.9)% in A2780-NiraR cells; t=4.78, P<0.001] and higher G 0/G 1 phase fraction [(35.4±1.2)% in A2780 cells, (52.2±3.1)% in A2780-NiraR cells; t=5.10, P<0.001]. (3) The metabolites of A2780 and A2780-NiraR cells were analyzed by non-target metabolomics. Forty-four differential metabolites between A2780 and A2780-NiraR cells were screened using the orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) model, the majority of which were significantly increased, such as pyrrolidone carboxylic acid, L-lysine and 1-pyrroline-4-hydroxy-2-carboxylate. Pathway enrichment analysis indicated that the arginine metabolism, purine metabolism, and pyrimidine metabolism were the most significantly enriched pathways. Conclusion:A2780-NiraR cells have acquired a stable niraparib resistance phenotype, and metabolic pathways including arginine metabolism may serve as potential therapeutic targets for enhancing niraparib efficacy in ovarian cancer.

Objective:To analyze the prevalence trends and epidemiological characteristics of cardiometabolic multimorbidity(CMM) in Beijing from 2005 to 2022.Methods:A series of representative cross-sectional surveys were conducted in Beijing between 2005 and 2022 using a stratified multistage cluster random sampling method. A total of 110 496 permanent residents aged 18-79 years participated in face-to-face interviews, physical examinations, and laboratory testing. Complex sampling logistic regression models were employed to identify factors associated with CMM, and Joinpoint regression was used to assess temporal trends in prevalence. Results:The prevalence of CMM was 22.3% in 2005 and 24.3% in 2022, with an average annual percent change of 0.1%(95% CI -1.3%-1.3%, P>0.05). In rural areas, the prevalence increased by 1.3% per year(95% CI 0.2%-2.6%, P<0.05), while among obese individuals, it decreased by 1.0% annually( P<0.05). The most common CMM patterns were hypertension combined with dyslipidemia(13.2%), hypertension combined with diabetes(7.0%), and diabetes combined with dyslipidemia(5.8%). The prevalence of hypertension and dyslipidemia comorbidity showed a long-term decline among females, those aged 60-79 and obese individuals( P<0.05). In contrast, the prevalence of hypertension and diabetes comorbidity increased over time in rural residents and individuals with normal body weight( P<0.05). Furthermore, diabetes and dyslipidemia comorbidity rates increased significantly among males, adults aged 18-59 years, those with a college education or above, rural residents and individuals with normal body weight( P<0.05). Multivariable logistic regression indicated that male, older age, overweight, obese, and lower education level were independently associated with a higher risk of CMM( P<0.05). Conclusion:From 2005 to 2022, the prevalence of CMM remained high among adults in Beijing. While prevalence decreased among obese individuals, it increased significantly in rural areas. Hypertension combined with dyslipidemia was the most common multimorbidity pattern throughout the study period.
