【Objective】 To investigate the variation of hematological parameters in male plateletpheresis donors. 【Methods】 A total of 194 male plateletpheresis donors from Fujian Blood Center were divided into two groups according to the frequency of blood donation: Group 1 (n=107), with the number of plateletpheresis donation less than or equal to 12 per year; Group 2 (n=87), with the number of plateletpheresis donation more than 12 per year. Serum ferritin (SF) and related iron metabolism indexes, red blood cell count (RBC), hemoglobin (Hb), hematocrit(Hct), platelet count (Plt) and other blood routine indexes, as well as percentage of reticulocyte counts (RET%), immature reticulocyte fraction(IRF) and other reticulocyte indexes were measured before blood donation and analyzed by statistical methods. 【Results】 Compared with Group 2, the RBC, Hb, Hct, SF in Group 1 were significantly higher, while Plt, RET%and IRF were significantly lower(P<0.05), and the probability of ferritin decrease in Group 1 was lower, with significant difference(P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 As the number of donation increased, male plateletpheresis donors were prone to iron deficiency, and the bone marrow hematopoiesis were obviously enhanced. We should be more concerned about male plateletpheresis donors who donated more than 12 times per year, further more, SF monitoring should be conducted and the blood donation interval should be appropriately extended.

Objective To analyze the influencing factors of disaster resilience in medical rescue workers,to construct a prediction model for the low-level risk of disaster resilience in medical rescue workers,and to verify the predictive effect of the model.Methods Using the convenience sampling method and the snowball method,1 037 medical rescue workers who participated in disaster rescue in 18 provinces(autonomous regions and municipalities)were selected as the participants from May to July 2022.Online questionnaire surveys were conducted using general information questionnaires,disaster resilience measuring tools for healthcare rescuers,the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale,the Simple Coping Style Questionnaire and the Depression-Anxiety-Stress Scale.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to determine the independent influencing factors for the low level of disaster resilience of medical rescue workers.A risk prediction model was constructed,and a nomogram chart was drawn.The model's effectiveness was evaluated using the receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)and calibration curve.The Bootstrap method was applied for internal validation.Results The logistic regression analysis showed that per capita monthly income of households,whether to participate in on-site disaster rescue,positive coping,mindfulness level,and adequacy of rescue supplies were independent influencing factors for the disaster resilience of medical rescue workers(P＜0.05).The predictive formula for the low-level risk of disaster resilience in medical rescue workers was established as follows:Logit(P)=8.741-0.381 x per capita monthly income of households-0.891 x whether to participate in on-site disaster rescue-2.544 x positive coping-0.020 x mindfulness level-0.222 x adequacy of rescue supplies.The area under the ROC curve was 0.823,and the optimal critical value was 0.353.The sensitivity and specificity were 79.12％and 71.43％,respectively.The Hosmer-Lemeshow test showed that x2=12.250(P=0.140),and the predicted curve fitted well with the ideal curve.The external validation showed that the sensitivity and specificity of the model were 75.00％and 66.39％,respectively,and the overall accuracy was 69.95％.Conclusion The prediction model in this study has sound predictive effects and can provide references and guidance for managers to select,recruit,and train medical rescue workers.
