Objective To analyze the differences in bone serum protein between patients with osteoporosis accompanied by obstructive sleep apnea syndrome(OSAS)and those with osteoporosis only using proteomics.Methods A total of 80 osteoporosis patients who attended our hospital between June 2022 and June 2024 were enrolled.Based on their polysomnography results,the participants were divided into an OSAS and osteoporosis comorbidity(OSAS-osteoporosis)group(n=42)and an osteoporosis only group(n=38).Propensity score matching was applied to incorporate covariates in logistic regression so that the individual characteristics of the two groups of patients were generally balanced.Following the matching procedure,a final cohort of 20 matched pairs was obtained and subsequently utilized for further analysis.The mass spectrum was obtained using laser desorption ionization mass spectrometry.Principal component analysis(PCA)was performed to assess differences in metabolic patterns between groups.Partial least squares discriminant analysis(PLS-DA)and orthogonal PLS-DA(OPLS-DA)were employed for further data analysis.Variable importance in projection(VIP)scores of each substance were calculated with OPLS-DA to screen the metabolites showing inter-group differences.Heatmaps were generated to visualize metabolic profile differences between the OSAS-osteoporosis group and the osteoporosis group.Enrichment pathway analysis was conducted on the differential identified metabolites.Results After propensity score matching,individual characteristics between the groups were well balanced.Mass spectrometry revealed significant differences between the OSAS-osteoporosis and osteoporosis groups.In the PCA score plot,the separation trend of the two groups was not significant.The PLS-DA score plot showed a discernible separation trend,with R2 and Q2 lower than those of the corresponding results of the real model,confirming the reliability of the model.OPLS-DA showed that the total R2X of the model was 0.635,R2Y was 0.879,and O2Y was 0.728,showing obvious separation trends between the two groups.A total of 16 differential metabolites were identified,including stearyl-oleyl-glycerol phosphate choline,phosphate choline,L-histidine,erucamide,2'-deoxyuridine,1-palmitoyl glycerol,thymine,tyramine,L-pyroglutamic acid,L-glutamic acid,myristate,glycerol-3-phosphate,caprylic acid,pregnenolone,L-arginine,D-4-hydroxyphenylglycine,and isobutyric acid.Heatmaps showed significant differences in metabolic profiles between the OSAS-osteoporosis group and the osteoporosis group.Pathway enrichment analysis showed that 27 metabolic pathways were involved.27 metabolic pathways.Under the conditions of P<0.05 and pathway impact>0.2,the three most significant metabolic pathways identified included mainly alanine,aspartate,and glutamate metabolism,arginine biosynthesis,and histidine metabolism.Conclusion Significant differences were observed in the metabolic profiles between patients with both OSAS and osteoporosis and those with osteoporosis alone.

Objective: To analyze the results of national external quality assessment (EQA) for transfusion compatibility test from 2018 to 2023, with the aim of providing references for improving laboratory testing quality and ensuring the safety of clinical blood transfusion. Methods: Three EQA programs were conducted annually, each distributing 22 quality assessment samples. Participating transfusion laboratories were required to complete testing within specified deadlines and to submit results along with documentation of testing methodologies, reagents, and equipment used. National Center for Clinical Laboratories (NCCL) conducted statistical analysis of laboratory results, evaluated testing outcomes and related circumstances, and provided feedback to participating laboratories. EQA data from transfusion laboratories across China from 2018 to 2023 were collected and systematically analyzed. Results: From 2018 to 2023, the qualification rates for all five items (ABO forward typing, ABO reverse typing, Rh blood group typing, antibody screening, and cross-matching) were 67.59%, 77.11%, 77.38%, 72.78%, 79.96%, and 85.16%, respectively. The mean qualification rates for ABO forward typing, ABO reverse typing, RhD blood group typing, antibody screening, and cross-matching over the past six years were 96.25%±0.59%, 90.45%±4.52%, 96.05%±0.71%, 90.88%±2.86%, and 88.34%±3.48%, respectively. The qualification rates in 2019, 2020, 2022, and 2023 all showed a stable trend of "blood stations>tertiary hospitals>secondary hospitals". The mean qualification rate of laboratories in secondary hospitals from 2018 to 2023 was significantly lower than those of laboratories in tertiary hospitals and blood stations (P<0.05), while no significant difference was observed between laboratories in tertiary hospitals and blood stations (P>0.05). The micro column agglutination method was the most widely used in all five tests. In the four test items, namely ABO forward typing, ABO reverse typing, antibody screening, and cross-matching, there was a statistically significant difference in the qualification rate of micro column agglutination method compared to other methods (P<0.05). There was a statistical difference in the qualification rate between manual and automated detection using micro column agglutination method in the cross-matching tests (P<0.05), whereas no significant difference was noted for the other test items (P>0.05). Conclusion: From 2018 to 2023, the number of laboratories participating in EQA activities has been increasing year by year, and the qualification rate has shown an overall upward trend. The type of laboratory is a key factor affecting the qualification rate, and the testing capabilities of some laboratories still need to be improved. The micro column agglutination method is widely used in transfusion compatibility tests. The established EQA program effectively monitors quality issues in laboratories, drives continuous improvement, and ensures sustained enhancement of testing standards to safeguard clinical blood safety.

Objective To evaluate the effect of five-element music combined with sandplay therapy in improving negative emotions and enhancing quality of life in patients with malignant tumors.Methods A to-tal of 112 malignant tumor patients meeting inclusion and exclusion criterias were enrolled and randomly di-vided into four groups by using random number table method:control group,five-element music group,sand-play therapy group,and combined therapy group,with 28 patients in every group.The control group received routine nursing and psychological care;the five-element music group received routine nursing,psychological care and five-element music therapy;the sandplay therapy group received routine nursing,psychological care,and sandplay therapy;the combined therapy group received routine nursing,psychological care,five-element music,and sandplay therapy.Interventions were conducted once a week for 6 weeks.Changes in self-rating anxiety scale(SAS),self-rating depression scale(SDS),and quality of life core scale(QLQ-C30)scores were compared among the four groups.Results Before treatment,there were no significant differences in SAS,SDS,or QLQ-C30 subscale scores among the four groups(P>0.05).After treatment,SAS and SDS scores decreased,while QLQ-C30 subscale scores increased in all four groups(P<0.05).After treatment,inter-group comparisons showed significant differences in SAS,SDS,and QLQ-C30 subscale scores(P<0.05),with the combined therapy group showing the best efficacy.The SAS and SDS scores in the five-element music group,sandplay therapy group,and combined therapy group were lower than those in the control group,while QLQ-C30 subscale scores were higher(P<0.05).No significant differences were observed between the five-element music group and sandplay therapy group in SAS,SDS,or QLQ-C30 subscale scores(P>0.05).The combined therapy group had significantly lower SAS and SDS scores and higher QLQ-C30 subscale scores than the five-element music group and sandplay therapy group(P<0.05).Conclusion Five-element music com-bined with sandplay therapy can significantly improve negative emotions and quality of life in patients with malignant tumors.

Existing emotion recognition research is typically limited to static laboratory settings and has not fully handle the changes in emotional states in dynamic scenarios. To address this problem, this paper proposes a method for dynamic continuous emotion recognition based on electroencephalography (EEG) and eye movement signals. Firstly, an experimental paradigm was designed to cover six dynamic emotion transition scenarios including happy to calm, calm to happy, sad to calm, calm to sad, nervous to calm, and calm to nervous. EEG and eye movement data were collected simultaneously from 20 subjects to fill the gap in current multimodal dynamic continuous emotion datasets. In the valence-arousal two-dimensional space, emotion ratings for stimulus videos were performed every five seconds on a scale of 1 to 9, and dynamic continuous emotion labels were normalized. Subsequently, frequency band features were extracted from the preprocessed EEG and eye movement data. A cascade feature fusion approach was used to effectively combine EEG and eye movement features, generating an information-rich multimodal feature vector. This feature vector was input into four regression models including support vector regression with radial basis function kernel, decision tree, random forest, and K-nearest neighbors, to develop the dynamic continuous emotion recognition model. The results showed that the proposed method achieved the lowest mean square error for valence and arousal across the six dynamic continuous emotions. This approach can accurately recognize various emotion transitions in dynamic situations, offering higher accuracy and robustness compared to using either EEG or eye movement signals alone, making it well-suited for practical applications.

Objective: To design and establish a new method for flow cytometry-based detection of commonly observed highly expressed antigens on red blood cells, and to further evaluate the differences and distribution characteristics of antigen expression levels between ABO blood type homozygotes and heterozygotes in healthy individuals. Methods: Residual blood samples after donor blood type identification by Shanghai Blood Center in April 2024 were collected. Among them, samples of 19 homozygous and 19 heterozygous individuals of type A and type B were selected. Then the expression level of ABO antigen on red blood cells were detected using the new method established in this study and the traditional aldehyde fixed red blood cell method. Both methods were tested independently three times and the results were compared. Results: The mean values of the three detection results of the new method was (×10 /RBC): AA homozygous 3.3±0.5, AO heterozygous 2.8±0.3, BB homozygous 3.6±0.3, BO heterozygous 3.1±2.8. The mean values of the three detection results of the aldehyde fixation method were AA homozygous 5.9±0.9, AO heterozygous 5.0±1.4, BB homozygous 3.8±0.6, and BO heterozygous 3.3±0.4. The average antigen distribution of each genotype followed a normal distribution. Comparing the average antigen expression levels of homozygotes and heterozygotes, both methods showed that A/B homozygotes had higher antigen levels than heterozygotes, with AA being 1.17 to 1.18 times that of AO and BB being 1.15 to 1.16 times that of BO. Comparing the inter batch differences in the three test results of two methods, the new method showed no significant difference in the three test results for four genotypes (P>0.05). The aldehyde fixation method showed significant differences in the test results for all three genotypes (P<0.01) except for BB homozygotes (P>0.05). The reliability and reproducibility of the new method were better than those of the traditional aldehyde fixation method. Conclusion: The antigen expression level of ABO homozygotes is higher than that of heterozygotes, and the difference in antigen level between type A homozygotes and heterozygotes is slightly higher than that of type B. The new method is superior to traditional aldolization fixation methods.

Objective:To develop a quality assessment index system for infection prevention and control in integrated medical and elderly care facilities, providing methods for assessing infection control quality and a theoretical basis for enhancing infection prevention and control capabilities.Methods:This study initially constructed a framework for the quality evaluation index system through literature reviews, work specifications and standards and expert interviews. The Delphi method was employed to conduct two rounds of consultations with 19 experts to evaluate the necessity, feasibility, stability, and sensitivity of the indicators. The expert′s active coefficient, authority coefficient, degree of consensus, and coordination were statistically analyzed. The indicators were revised based on expert opinions to finalize the evaluation index system. The weights of the evaluation dimensions were determined using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), while the weights of the indicators were determined using the proportional allocation method. Reliability was assessed via Cronbach′s α coefficient, and content validity was verified through the Content Validity Index ( CVI). Results:After two rounds of expert consultation, the expert positive coefficient, expert authority coefficient ( Cr) and expert coordination coefficient Kendall′s W was 100%, 0.992 and 0.634 ( P<0.001), indicating high expert authority, good concentration and coordination of opinions. The assessment index system for infection prevention and control quality in integrated medical and elderly care facilities was ultimately constructed, comprising three primary indicators, 18 secondary indicators and 68 tertiary indicators. Among the primary indicators, the process quality had the highest weight of 0.338. Within the process quality, the secondary indicators with the highest weights were infection control material allocation, hand hygiene quality and the management of cluster outbreaks. A total of 11 unique evaluation indicators for integrated medical and elderly care facilities were established, with the highest weighted indicator being the rate of standardized surveillance of infection-related risk factors. Reliability and validity analyses demonstrated that the overall Cronbach′s α coefficient of the system was 0.991, and the Scale-level Content Validity Index was 0.936, confirming good reliability and validity. Conclusion:The evaluation index system constructed in this study can serve as an effective assessment tool for the quantitative evaluation of infection control quality in integrated medical and elderly care facilities. Furthermore, it is recommended that the system undergo continuous optimization concerning its application.

Objective:To analyze the results of national external quality assessment (EQA) for transfusion compatibility test in 2023, and provide reference for quality management of clinical transfusion compatibility testing.Methods:The EQA of clinical transfusion compatibility testing by NCCL was performed 3 times in 2023 among included laboratories. The panel consisting of 22 samples was distributed to 4 186 laboratories across 31 provinces (Including 2 961 tertiary hospital laboratories, 1 085 secondary hospital laboratories, 23 primary hospital laboratories, 106 blood station laboratories and 11 independent clinical laboratories). Each panel contains 11 red blood cell and 11 plasma samples per 1.5 ml/tube. Each participant laboratory of the EQA program was required to carry out the detection and return results in expected time. Statistical analysis and evaluation on the reported results were conducted by NCCL from the aspects of regional distribution, laboratory grading, testing methodology, reagent and testing system usage.Results:The qualification rates of EQA for five items including ABO positive typing, ABO reverse typing, RhD blood type, antibody screening, and cross matching were 96.68%, 95.10%, 96.46%, 95.32%, and 91.04%, respectively. The EQA qualification rate of tertiary hospital laboratories was 87.77% (2 599/2 961), which was significantly higher than the 77.79% (844/1 085) of secondary hospital laboratories. There were significant differences in the qualification rate of participating laboratories among different regions. The utilization rates of micro column agglutination method in ABO positive typing, ABO reverse typing, RhD blood type, antibody screening, and cross matching were 80.81% (10 080/12 474), 75.06% (9 337/12 440), 81.38% (10 118/12 433), 89.59% (11 104/12 394) and 76.25% (9 495/12 453), respectively. The qualification rate of micro column agglutination method was significantly higher than that of saline slide method in ABO positive typing detection ( P<0.05). The qualification rate of micro column agglutination method was significantly higher than that of the polyamine method and anti-human globulin test tube method in antibody screening ( P<0.05). There were statistically significant differences in qualification rate of 7 reagents in ABO reverse typing, antibody screening and cross matching ( P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in the qualification rate between the two detection systems for other reagents, except for the ABO reverse typing where the qualification rate of reagent 1 in a single system was higher than that in a mixed system ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The testing capabilities of clinical laboratories in different regions and different type varied significantly in China. Micro column agglutination method was the most popular selection in transfusion compatibility testing. The regents used in these laboratories showed good performance. However, the detection efficiency of some reagents still need to be improved. EQA could be used to evaluate, monitor, and improve the quality of testing.
