The promulgation of the Technical Specifications for Clinical Use of Blood (2025 Edition) signifies that China's clinical blood transfusion management has transitioned from mere technical operations to a new stage centered on patient blood management (PBM). Through an in-depth comparison of the new and old specifications, this paper analyzes the core transformations regarding conceptual reconstruction, legal alignment, technological upgrades, and closed-loop management. The new specifications establish PBM principles, reinforce legal safeguards for informed consent and emergency treatment, and construct a comprehensive, refined quality control system by specifying compatibility testing standards and introducing a post-transfusion evaluation system. Medical institutions should seize this opportunity to update management protocols and information systems, deepen multidisciplinary collaboration, and drive the profound transformation of clinical blood use from focusing solely on safety assurance to placing equal emphasis on science and value.

ObjectiveTo evaluate a novel nomogram based on contrast-enhanced MRI radiomics combined with clinical variables for the preoperative prediction of perineural invasion (PNI) in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). MethodsThe clinical data of 59 ICC patients were retrospectively collected. According to postoperative pathology reports, the patients were divided into the non-PNI group (n = 33) and the PNI group (n = 26). Regions of interest (ROI) were delineated from five MRI sequences. Radiomics features were then extracted and filtered to select those with the strongest discriminative power for PNI identification. These selected features were used to construct a radiomics model, which subsequently generated a quantitative radiomics score (radiomics score, Radscore). Univariate analysis was applied to identify clinical variables associated with PNI, and the glm function was subsequently used to construct clinical and combined models. Finally, the models were evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves, calibration curves, and decision curve analysis (DCA). The combined model was then visualized as a nomogram. ResultsThe clinical model included age, carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9), red blood cell distribution width, and albumin, whereas the Radscore included five radiomic features. The areas under the ROC curves (AUCs) for the clinical and radiomics models were 0.717 (95%CI: 0.586-0.848) and 0.896 (95%CI: 0.820-0.973), respectively, whereas the combined model further improved its AUC to 0.917 (95% CI:0.848-0.987). The calibration curves and DCA showed that the nomogram was well calibrated and provided the greatest net clinical benefit. ConclusionThe novel nomogram may serve as a basis for preoperative prediction of PNI status, thereby assisting clinical decision-making and guiding personalized treatment.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of blue laser vaporization in the treatment of large-volume (>80 mL) benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 149 BPH patients with prostate volume>80 mL who underwent blue laser vaporization at our hospital during Aug. 2023 and Aug. 2025. The 1-month postoperative maximum urinary flow rate (Qmax) and international prostate symptom score (IPSS), operation time, postoperative hemoglobin drop, bladder irrigation volume, catheter indwelling time, and incidence of postoperative complications were recorded and analyzed. Results All operations were successfully completed, without conversion to other approaches. The operation time was (41.47±11.05) minutes, postoperative hemoglobin drop (2.78±1.19) g/L, bladder irrigation volume (9.97±1.49) bags, and catheter indwelling time (3.30±1.85) days. One month after surgery, the Qmax was significantly higher than the preoperative value [(20.19±3.39) mL/s vs. (2.39±2.17) mL/s], while the IPSS was significantly lower [(4.46±0.87) vs. (27.69±2.06)], with statistically significant differences (P<0.001). Postoperative complications included 1 case of incontinence (0.67%), 2 cases of urethral stricture/bladder neck contracture (1.34%), and 1 case of secondary bleeding (0.67%), all of which improved with symptomatic treatment. Conclusion Blue laser vaporization is effective for treating large-volume BPH, with advantages such as minimal bleeding risk, short operation time, fast recovery and safety.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is highly malignant and often has an extremely poor prognosis, and early postoperative liver metastasis is one of the key influencing factors for prognosis. With reference to the clinical and experimental studies in recent years, this article reviews the clinical risk factors for early liver metastasis after PDAC and systematically elaborates on major molecular events underlying early postoperative liver metastasis from various aspects of construction of the pre-metastatic niche in the liver driven by tumor-derived exosomes, the pro-metastatic microenvironment maintained by metastasis-associated macrophages and neutrophil extracellular traps, the invasive phenotype and liver-tropic migration of tumor cells, intrahepatic immunometabolic adaptation, and fibrotic remodeling, in order to provide a theoretical basis for perioperative risk stratification and the development of intervention strategies.

Objective:To understand the activity concentrations of varying chemical forms of 131I in nuclear medicine workplaces and assess the internal irradiation doses of 131I to workers. Methods:A high-volume air sampler was used for air sampling of 131I. Glass fiber filters, activated carbon filters, and iodine cartridges, which were connected in series, were employed to collect aerosol iodine, gaseous inorganic iodine, and gaseous organic iodine, respectively. A method for analyzing the activity of 131I unevenly distributed in the iodine cartridge was developed, and an HPGe γ spectrometer was used to determine the activity of 131I in samples collected from the nuclear medicine workplaces of 15 hospitals. Results:The concentrations of aerosol iodine, inorganic iodine, and organic iodine in 15 hospitals were determined at 0.19-206.67, 0.27-138.45, and 2.35-3 821.11 Bq/m 3, respectively, with arithmetic means of 22.04, 12.79 and 365.08 Bq/m 3, respectively. The maximum annual committed effective doses of varied forms of 131I inhaled by workers were determined at 0.19, 0.19, and 3.81 mSv, respectively, with a maximum total committed effective dose of 4.13 mSv. Conclusions:Gaseous organic iodine is identified as the primary form of 131I in the air within nuclear medicine workplaces. Therefore, it is necessary to highlight the monitoring and protection of gaseous organic iodine.

Objective To analyze the urban drinking water quality and its influencing factors in Anhui Province from 2014 to 2022, and to provide a scientific basis for water quality improvement and protection. Methods The data were collected, saved and monitored according to the Standard Test Method for Drinking Water (GB/T5750-2006) and evaluated according to the Hygienic Standard for Drinking Water (GB 5749-2006). Results A total of 20 941 samples were collected, and the overall qualified rate was 84.26%. The qualified rate of urban drinking water increased from 76.9% in 2014 to 93.3% in 2022, and the qualified rate of water quality was on the rise (χ2=544.43, P<0.01). From 2014 to 2022, the qualified rate of water quality in dry season was higher than that in wet season (χ2=35.98, P<0.001), the qualified rate of surface water was higher than that of ground water (χ2=4440.8, P<0.001), and the qualified rate of peripheral tap water was higher than that of factory water (χ2=145.1, P<0.001). Among all kinds of disinfection methods, chlorination disinfection had the highest qualified rate (χ2=1483.8, P<0.001). The qualified rate of water quality increased with the increase of the scale of water plant. Among the inspected indicators, the main unqualified indicators were chlorine dioxide (7.72%), fluoride (7.41%), free residual chlorine (3.90%), and total bacterial count (2.13%). Conclusion The passing rate of urban drinking water quality in Anhui Province is on an upward trend, and the quality of urban drinking water has improved. However, it is still important to pay attention to the problem of excessive microorganism and fluoride in water, and the quality of drinking water varies from place to place.

Radon, the only naturally occurring radioactive noble gas, is among the most common radioactive nuclides to which humans are exposed. Radon can induce various biological effects in the human body and is a risk factor for lung cancer. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are stable, tissue-specific, and abundantly expressed in body fluids. circRNAs can regulate gene expression and play an important role in the development of cancer. In this paper, we summarized the changes in the expression and function of circRNAs, highlighting the potential mechanisms of circRNAs in radon exposure-induced cancers. Our results provided theoretical support for the use of circRNAs as a biomarker of radon exposure-induced radiation damage, and offer a theoretical basis for the early diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of radon exposure-induced diseases.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and effectiveness of 3D digital holographic imaging combined with intraoperative navigation technology in the context of partial nephrectomy.Methods A total of 46 patients who underwent laparoscopic partial nephrectomy in the Department of Urology at the Second People's Hospital of Hefei City between June 2023 and January 2025 were randomly assigned to either the experimental group or the control group.The experimental group(n=23)utilized preoperative planning and intraoperative real-time navigation based on 3D digital holographic imaging,whereas the control group(n=23)relied on preoperative planning using optimized two-dimensional images obtained via contrast-enhanced CT and MRI scans.Preoperative data—including gender,age,body mass index(BMI),tumor diameter,and RENAL score—were collected.Intra-operative parameters such as total operative time,warm ischemia time,intraoperative blood loss,hemoglobin levels,postoperative hospitalization duration,and time to drain removal were recorded.Renal function changes were assessed by comparing serum creatinine levels and estimated glomerular filtration rates(eGFR)before surgery and one month post-surgery.Additionally,the incidence of intraoperative complications—particularly injury to the renal collecting system—and postoperative complications—including positive surgical margins,bleeding,subcutaneous emphysema,and urinary fistula—was analyzed.Results In this study,holographic images were successfully reconstructed for 23 patients with renal tumors in the experimental group.Each anatomical structure—including the kidney and tumor lesions,collecting system,renal arteries and veins,adrenal glands,and inferior vena cava—was color-coded to enable intuitive visualization.These images were used for preoperative planning and provided real-time spatial orientation to accurately locate and guide resection of the tumor during surgery.In the control group,23 patients underwent preoperative planning based on contrast-enhanced CT and MRI scans acquired using optimized parameters.All 46 patients underwent laparoscopic partial nephrectomy performed by the same qualified surgeon,and postoperative pathological analysis confirmed renal tumors,including 27 cases of clear cell carcinoma,7 cases of chromophobe cell carcinoma,5 cases of papillary cell carcinoma,2 cases of sarcomatoid carcinoma,and 5 cases of angiomyolipoma.No significant differences were observed in baseline clinical characteristics(including age,body mass index,tumor diameter,and RENAL score)between the two groups(P>0.05).The experimental group showed significantly lower values in total operative time,warm ischemia time,intraoperative blood loss,pre-to postoperative hemoglobin changes,and pre-surgical to one-month post-surgical creatinine changes compared to the control group(P<0.01).Additionally,the experimental group exhibited smaller changes in hospitalization duration,time to drain removal,and glomerular filtration rate from preoperative to one month post-surgery;however,these differences were not statistically significant(P=0.175,P=0.331,and P=0.273).There were no intraop-erative complications or damage to the collecting system in either the experimental or control groups.Postopera-tively,the control group experienced one case of positive surgical margin,one case of hemorrhage,and one case of subcutaneous emphysema.No statistically significant differences were observed between the groups(P>0.05).Conclusions 3D digital holographic imaging combined with intraoperative navigation technology,based on the fusion of MRI and CT data,facilitates preoperative planning and precise intraoperative guidance.This approach helps reduce operative time,preserve renal function,and lower perioperative risks while ensuring therapeutic efficacy.
