AIM:To investigate the current status and influencing factors of knowledge-attitude-practice in myopia prevention and control among children and adolescents in Ningbo City, thereby providing a scientific basis for formulating targeted prevention strategies.METHODS: Children and adolescents aged 6-12 years old were selected from the medical-school collaborative myopia prevention network in Ningbo City between August 2024 and May 2025 using stratified cluster sampling. Information on myopia prevention knowledge(15 items)and practice(9 items)was collected through questionnaire surveys. Logistic regression models were used to analyze factors influencing myopia occurrence in children and adolescents.RESULTS: A total of 664 children and adolescents aged 6-12 years were enrolled in this study. Participants were divided by age into three groups: 6-7 years old(n=221), 8-9 years old(n=221), and 10-12 years old(n=222). Of the 664 questionnaires distributed, 637 valid questionnaires were returned(201 from the 6-7 age group, 235 from the 8-9 age group, and 201 from the 10-12 age group), yielding an effective response rate of 95.9%. Based on myopia screening results, the non-myopic group comprised 203 participants(31.9%), including 100 males and 103 females, with a mean age of 8.82±1.98 years old. The myopic group comprised 434 participants(68.1%), including 213 males and 221 females, with a mean age of 9.10±1.95 years old. The myopia prevalence rates in the 6-7, 8-9, and 10-12 age groups were 37.8%(76/201), 71.9%(169/235), and 94.0%(189/201), respectively(P<0.001). Regarding the knowledge and practice of myopia prevention, the overall awareness rate in the non-myopic group(59.7%±9.7%)was significantly higher than that in the myopic group(48.7%±8.5%; P<0.001). Additionally, the non-myopic group scored higher on the key practice of “regular eye examinations”(4.27±0.96)compared to the myopic group(4.10±1.05; P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis indicated that age was the primary risk factor for myopia occurrence.CONCLUSION: Age is the dominant factor in the onset of myopia, and there is a phenomenon of “knowledge-practice gap”; the traditional health education model has limitations, and a precise prevention and control system based on developmental patterns should be established.

Lung cancer ranks first in morbidity and mortality among malignant tumors in China. Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT), as the primary screening method, faces increasingly prominent challenges of false positives and overdiagnosis associated with its high sensitivity. In recent years, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and three-dimensional reconstruction technology has provided a novel approach to addressing these challenges. This review highlights how AI and three-dimensional reconstruction contribute to improving image quality, enabling precise identification of pulmonary nodules and intelligent risk stratification, optimizing dynamic follow-up strategies, and assisting in preoperative planning, thereby driving the transformation of the LDCT screening paradigm. Meanwhile, current technical limitations and future directions are also discussed.

Objective: To develop a RHCE genotyping assay based on kompetitive allele-specific PCR (KASP) and assess its clinical accuracy for RhCE blood group determination. Methods: KASP primers were designed to interrogate three RHCE loci: the 109 bp insertion/deletion in intron 2, c. 307T>C, and c. 676C>G. A total of 1 194 RhD-positive inpatients from Chengdu were typed by both KASP genotyping and manual tube serology. Discordant samples (n=10) were retested by both methods and further resolved by Sanger sequencing. An additional 377 cases were tested for the c. 48C>G locus to evaluate the predictive accuracy of individual loci and combined locus testing for RhC antigen. Results: Genotyping concordance with serology was 100.0% for both the c. 676C>G locus (RhE/Rhe) and the c. 307T>C locus (Rhc). For RhC prediction using the 109 bp insertion, overall accuracy was 99.7% (1 191/1 194); the 3 discordant cases were confirmed by Sanger sequencing to be false negatives attributable to 109 bp deletion in intron 2. Testing the c. 48C>G allele for RhC prediction yielded 7 false positives, with an accuracy of 98.1% (370/377). RhC antigen status was determined by combining the 109 bp insertion and the c. 48C allele. After excluding 10 samples with inconsistent results between the two loci, the accuracy reached 100% in the remaining 367 samples. When both loci were applied in combination, accuracy reached 100% in the 367 cases with concordant results. Among the 1 194 patients, CCee (45.8%) and CcEe (31.7%) were the most common RhCE phenotypes. The e antigen had the highest positivity rate (92.2%), and the Ce haplotype was the most frequent (66.9%). Conclusion: The KASP-based RHCE genotyping method achieves high accuracy for clinical RhCE typing. Combining the 109 bp insertion/deletion with the c. 48C allele significantly improves RhC antigen prediction compared with either locus alone. This method was applied to RhCE genotyping of 1 194 RhD-positive inpatients in Chengdu, providing local RhCE phenotype and haplotype distribution data to support RhCE-matched transfusion practice.

To compare the performance differences between the multidisciplinary team (MDT) model and the conventional diagnostic and treatment model for lung cancer, and to explore a high-quality development pathway for optimizing lung cancer diagnostic and treatment resources.

Purpose: Dual anti–human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) drugs have become the standard regimen for neoadjuvant systemic treatment (NST) to HER2-positive breast cancer patients. However, the efficacy varies greatly among patients with different HER2 protein expression levels. Materials and Methods: A total of 575 HER2-positive breast cancer patients from multiple centers throughout China from 2013 to 2022 were retrospectively analyzed. We compared clinicopathological features in different HER2 immunohistochemistry classes (HER2 2+/in situ hybridization [ISH] + or HER2 3+), and their difference in response to NST and survival with single or dual anti-HER2 drugs. Drug sensitivity assays were used to evaluate different efficacy of anti-HER2 drugs in vitro. Results: Compared to HER2 3+ subgroup, the HER2 2+/ISH+ group had a higher proportion of hormone receptor–positive status (48.7% vs. 76.1%, p < 0.001), more HER2 protein loss after NST, lower pathological complete response (pCR) rate (46.07% vs. 16.24%, p < 0.001), and tended to have worse disease-free survival (DFS). In HER2 2+/ISH+ patients, treated with pertuzumab and trastuzumab in combination had no significant improvement in pCR (19.12% vs. 12.24%, p=0.287) and DFS (p=0.908) than using alone. Drug sensitivity assay showed poor efficacy with dual anti-HER2 drugs in HER2 2+/ISH+ cell lines; however, fam-trastuzumab deruxtecan drugs had a satisfactory effect. Conclusion Owing to the differences in clinicopathological features and treatment efficacy, we considered the HER2 2+/ISH+ group to be a distinct subtype and defined it as the HER2-moderate–positive subgroup. In this subgroup, dual anti-HER2 drugs did not exert significant improvement in pCR and DFS. Therefore, treatment optimization is warranted, with antibody-drug conjugate drugs as potential options.

Objective: Blood donor selection criteria provide the core framework for assessing whether a prospective donor is suitable to donate blood, with the dual aim of protecting donor health and recipient safety while supporting a sufficient and accessible blood supply. Over the past century, with the establishment of blood banking systems and the progressive identification of transfusion-transmissible pathogens, health questionnaires, physical assessment and laboratory testing have become integral parts of the donor selection process, contributing to the safe, reliable and effective operation of blood services. In recent decades, advances in science and technology, together with a deeper understanding of human physiology, disease risk and transfusion safety, have made it necessary to systematically re-examine the scientific basis, necessity and appropriateness of existing donor selection criteria. As an introductory commentary to this series on whole-blood interdonation intervals and the upper age limit for blood donation, this article discusses the rationale underlying the establishment and dynamic adjustment of donor selection criteria. Drawing on the relevant expert consensus statements in this series and an overview of multicenter real-world studies from China, it explores the balance between donor safety and blood supply sufficiency and proposes future directions for optimizing donor selection criteria in China through local adaptation of policies, evidence-informed decision-making, and pilot evaluation.

Objective: To evaluate the risk of donation-related adverse reactions, donation behavior, and contributions to the blood supply among donors aged 56-65 years following extension of the upper age limit for voluntary blood donation, and to provide real-world evidence for optimizing blood donation age policies in China. Methods: A multicenter retrospective cohort was established using blood donation databases from Hainan, Shenzhen, and Jiangxi. A total of 1 180 767 donors contributing 2 020 407 whole-blood and apheresis donations were included. Donations were classified by donor age at each donation into the 18-55-year and 56-65-year groups. Generalized estimating equation (GEE) models were used to compare the risks of overall, local, and systemic donation-related adverse reactions between the two age groups. Restricted cubic spline analysis was used to assess the continuous association between donor age and the risk of overall adverse reactions. Poisson GEE models were used to compare annual donation frequency, and donation participation and contributions to the blood supply among donors aged 56-65 years were evaluated. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Institute of Blood Transfusion, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (No.2025012) and registered with the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2500114960). Results: A total of 1 960 711 donations were included in the 18-55-year group and 59 696 in the 56-65-year group. The overall donation-related adverse reaction rates were 3.890‰and 0.704‰, respectively. Multivariable GEE analysis showed that, compared with donors aged 18-55 years, those aged 56-65 years had lower risks of overall adverse reactions (adjusted OR=0.294, 95%CI: 0.217-0.398, P<0.001) and systemic adverse reactions (adjusted OR=0.163, 95%CI: 0.101-0.263, P<0.001), whereas no statistically significant difference was observed in the risk of local adverse reactions (adjusted OR=1.337, 95%CI: 0.487-3.670, P=0.573). Donor age was nonlinearly associated with the risk of overall adverse reactions (P overall<0.001, P nonlinear<0.001), with the risk generally decreasing with increasing age between 18 and 65 years. The mean annual donation frequency was higher among donors aged 56-65 years than among those aged 18-55 years (1.63 vs 1.24 donations per year; adjusted IRR=1.34, 95%CI: 1.30-1.39, P<0.001). During the study period, donors aged 56-65 years contributed 2.95% of all donations; their whole-blood donations and whole-blood collection volume accounted for 2.36% and 2.37% of the corresponding totals, respectively. Conclusion: Under current health screening and standardized donor management, donors aged 56-65 years did not show an increased risk of short-term donation-related adverse reactions and demonstrated a higher annual donation frequency, together with a measurable contribution to the blood supply. These findings support appropriately extending the upper age limit for voluntary blood donation under strict health screening to broaden the donor pool and supplement the blood supply.

AIM: To characterize the current status, research hotspots, and evolutionary differences in clinical studies on amblyopia published in Chinese and English from 2015 to 2025, and to provide a reference for the clinical diagnosis and treatment as well as relevant research of amblyopia.METHODS: Clinical studies on amblyopia in both Chinese and English were retrieved from the CNKI, VIP, Wanfang and Web of Science(WoS)databases. Bibliometric and visualization analyses of publication output, institutions, authors, and keywords were conducted using Cite Space 6.4.R1 and VOS viewer 1.6.19.RESULTS: Totally 1 302 publications were included, comprising 920 Chinese and 382 English publications. The publications of Chinese literature declined after 2019, while that of English literature showed an upward trend. Relevant studies involved 18 countries, and the institutional cooperation connections of English literature were relatively closer. The core author cooperation networks of both Chinese and English literature presented multi-cluster distribution. A total of 360 and 283 keyword nodes were obtained from Chinese and English literature, respectively. The high-frequency keywords of both literatures covered four aspects, including amblyopia types, research populations, evaluation indicators, and treatment methods. Both Chinese and English studies focus on anisometropic and strabismic amblyopia. Chinese studies predominantly investigated children of different age groups, whereas adult amblyopia received earlier attention in the English literature. Visual acuity, contrast sensitivity, and stereopsis were the major outcome measures of common interest, while optical correction and occlusion therapy remained the mainstay treatments. Totally 19 and 13 keyword clusters were identified in the Chinese and English literatures, respectively. Burst analysis indicated that digital treatment such as binocular dichoptic training appeared relatively early in English literature. In recent years, quality of life and risk factor screening for amblyopia received increasing attention. In Chinese literature, growing focus was placed on digital visual training and traditional Chinese medicine intervention. In addition, neuroimaging evaluation based on resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging was conducted much earlier in English studies.CONCLUSION:From 2015 to 2025, Chinese and English clinical research on amblyopia has shown diversified development, with substantial similarities in the major types of amblyopia investigated, visual function assessment, and basic treatment modalities, but differences in the timing and emphasis of some research hotspots. Clinical research on amblyopia is gradually expanding from improvement in visual acuity toward restoration of binocular visual function, multidimensional outcome assessment, and investigation of visual neural mechanisms, while treatment strategies are becoming increasingly digitalized and individualized. Future research should further optimize standardized treatment, strengthen investigations into adult amblyopia, binocular digital vision training, visual neural mechanisms, and multidimensional outcome assessment, and evaluate the clinical value of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine interventions through high-quality clinical studies.

Objective To observe the value of nomogram of ultrasound combined with laboratory indexes for predicting axillary lymph node metastasis(ALNM)of stage cT1N0 breast invasive ductal carcinoma(IDC).Methods A total of 77 cases with pathologically diagnosed stage cT1N0 single breast IDC were retrospectively collected,including 23 cases with and 54 cases without ALNM.Univariate and multivariate binary logistic regression analysis were used to analyze clinical data,laboratory indicators and ultrasonic manifestations,then the independent predictors of ALNM of stage cT1N0 breast IDC were screened to establish laboratory indexes model,ultrasound model and combined model,respectively,and nomogram of the combined model was drawn.Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves were plotted to evaluate the predictive efficacy of each model.The consistency of results of combined model and actual results was analyzed using calibration curve.Decision curve analysis(DCA)was used to explore the clinical value of each model.Results Serum carbohydrate antigen 153(CA153)(OR=1.132),platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(PLR)(OR=1.020)and echo attenuation behind the lesion on ultrasound(OR=8.789)were all independent predictors of ALNM in stage cT1N0 breast IDC(all P＜0.05),and the area under the curve(AUC)of laboratory indexes model,ultrasound model and combined model for predicting ALNM of stage cT1N0 breast IDC was 0.757,0.616 and 0.836,respectively.The consistency of the predicted results of combined model and actual results was good.When the threshold was higher than 0.15,the net benefit of combined model was higher than that of the other 2 models.Conclusion Nomogram of ultrasound combined with laboratory indexes could effectively predict ALNM of stage cT1N0 breast IDC.
