Objective: To investigate the iodine nutrition status of children in water borne iodine excess areas in Hebei Province, so as to provide references for scientific prevention and control of water borne iodine excess hazards. Methods: From March to September each year during 2018 to 2023, a cross sectional survey was conducted in 39 water borne iodine excess counties (measured in 2017) from 5 cities (Cangzhou, Hengshui, Xingtai, Handan and Langfang) in Hebei Province. The survey included the detection of iodine content in residents drinking water, the measurement of thyroid volume in children aged 6-12, the detection of salt iodine and urinary iodine. The iodine nutrition status and water iodine distribution of 6-12 year-old children were evaluated from different perspectives such as years, gender, and age. Kruskal-Wallis H- test, Mann-Whitney U test and Chi square test were used for group comparison. Results: A total of 38 755 children were surveyed from 2018 to 2023, and 1 270 drinking water samples were tested across the province. The mass volume concentration of iodine in water showed a decreasing trend over the years ( Z= -30.87, P <0.01). Among 38 470 salt samples monitored from children s home, 24 790 were not non iodized salt, with a non iodized salt rate of 64.44%. A total of 31 989 urine samples were collected from children aged 8-10 years, with the median urine iodine was 245.94 μg/L. Comparing the results of urinary iodine in children from different years, the median urinary iodine from 2018 to 2023 were 328.0, 339.3, 267.8, 279.1, 291.3, 186.5 μg/L, respectively, with statistically significant differences ( H= 4 138.40 , P <0.01). Further pairwise comparisons showed that the median urinary iodine of children in 2023 was lower than in all other years ( Z =-51.59 to -11.41, all P <0.01). Among children aged 6-12 years, 1 150 cases of goiter were detected and the rate of goiter was 3.0%; and the goiter rates in boys and girls were 2.8% and 3.1%, with no significant difference between the sexes ( χ 2= 2.76, P >0.05). There were significant differences in the rate of goiter among different years and ages ( χ 2=324.02, 191.61, both P <0.05). Conclusions With the progress of water reform in water borne iodine excess areas of Hebei Province, children s iodine nutrition has reduced from excessive state to suitable state. It is necessary to continue to expand the coverage of water based iodine reduction projects, and strengthen the monitoring of iodine nutrition status of key populations in water borne iodine excess areas.

[Objective] To compare the efficacy and safety of deglycerolized red blood cells (DRBC) and suspended red blood cells (SRBC) based on the propensity score matching (PSM) method, so as to provide evidence for the rational use of DRBC resources in clinical practice. [Methods] A total of 89 patients who received DRBC transfusion and 2 916 patients who received SRBC transfusion in our hospital from January 2023 to September 2024 were included. A 1∶1 nearest neighbor PSM was used to balance covariates such as gender, age, and body mass index (BMI). The changes of hemoglobin (Hb), red blood cell (RBC) count, hematocrit (HCT), and inflammatory markers such as white blood cell (WBC) count, neutrophil (NE) count, C-reactive protein (CRP), and Interleukin-6(IL-6) in the last 72 hours after transfusion were analyzed by SPSS 26.0 and R software to evaluate clinical efficacy and transfusion safety. [Results] The baseline of the two groups was balanced after PSM (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the total effective rate between the DRBC group (80.9%) and the SRBC group (86.5%) (P>0.05). In the SRBC group, WBC (×10 /L) increased from 9.634±6.742 to 10.147±6.835, CRP (mg/dL) increased from 5.468±4.647 to 6.174±6.114, and IL-6(pg/mL) decreased from 213.733±587.191 to 157.255±552.626. In the DRBC group, WBC (×10 /L) decreased from 11.123±7.880 to 11.011±8.549, CRP (mg/dL) decreased from 5.729±4.761 to 5.326±4.466, and IL-6(pg/mL) decreased from 238.806±639.060 to 152.255±266.558. Compared with the before treatment, the differences between the SRBC group and DRBC group were not statistically significant (P>0.05). Among all patients included in the statistics, the overall incidence of transfusion adverse reactions was 0.205% (6/2 916) in the SRBC group, and no adverse reactions occurred in the DRBC group. The incidence in the SRBC group was higher than that in the DRBC group. [Conclusion] Based on PSM analysis, there was no significant difference in the efficacy and safety of DRBC transfusion compared with SRBC transfusion, which can provide evidence-based support for routine application.

[Objective] To evaluate the risk of bacterial contamination of platelets apheresis and improve the clinical diagnosis rate of transfusion-transmitted bacterial infections. [Methods] A retrospective analysis was conducted on 11 cases involving bacterial contamination detected in apheresis platelets during quality inspections at our center from 2021 to 2023, as well as cases of transfusion-transmitted bacterial infection (TTBI) caused by platelet transfusion. The return of positive platelet bacteria test results and clinical transfusion adverse reactions were statistically analyzed. [Results] There were 9 donors with bacteria-contaminated platelets, of which 3 were reported as clinical transfusion reaction, 4 were detected by quality sampling, and 2 were identified by appearance detection before transfusion. The bacterial contamination rate of platelets was about 0.08% (9/10 762). The contaminated platelets were involved in 11 cases of TTBI, with an incidence of TTBI of approximately 0.05% (11/21 916). Only 3 cases of transfusion reactions were clinically reported, while the rest were case tracking with positive results of platelet bacterial test from quality sampling. The clinical return rate of TTBI was 27.27% (3/11), with an average reporting time of 8.12 hours after the occurrence of transfusion reactions. The majority of the contaminated platelets were detected at the end stage of storage, with 55.56% (5/9) of platelets collected on the 4th day after collection. Partial contaminated platelets were identified through quality sampling, with a positive rate of 2.78% (4/144). [Conclusion] The platelet bacterial contamination rate is high, but with low clinical return rate. It is recommended to conduct routine platelet bacterial monitoring and improve clinical diagnostic level.

Objective To explore the effect on the expression of ERα/PGC1α/PPARα pathway,the therapeutic effect of Danhe Liuwei Dihuang Decoction on ovariectomized NAFLD rats was observed.Methods 60 female non-pregnant SPF SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group(Sham),model group(Model),estrogen group(E2),traditional Chinese medicine high,medium and low dose group(DHR-H/M/L).Sham group was given normal diet after sham operation,and the other groups were given high-fat,high-fructose and high-cholesterol diet(HF/HF/HC)after bilateral ovariectomy to prepare postmenopausal NAFLD model.The Sham group and the Model group were given normal saline by gavage,and the other groups were given corresponding doses of drugs by gavage.The intervention time was 12 weeks,and the experimental period was 14 weeks.The general condition and body weight of rats in each group were recorded.HE staining of uterus was used to observe the morphology of uterus,HE staining of liver and oil red O staining were used to observe steatosis.Serum liver function(ALT,AST)and lipid metabolism indexes(TG,TC)were measured by automatic biochemical analyzer.The levels of serum E2 and free fatty acid(FFA)and the expression of FFA and TG in liver tissue were detected by ELISA.The mRNA and protein expressions of ERα,PGC1α and PPARα in liver tissues were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot.Results Compared with the Model group,by Danhe Liuwei Dihuang Decoction,the body weight and liver weight of ovariectomized NAFLD rats significantly decreased,liver fat deposition significantly decreased,E2 level increased,ALT,AST,TG,TC,FFA and liver tissue homogenate FFA,TG content significantly decreased,liver ERα,PGC1α,PPARα mRNA and protein expression up-regulated(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Conclusion Danhe Liuwei Dihuang Decoction can improve liver steatosis in postmenopausal NAFLD model rats.The mechanism may be related to up-regulating the expression of ERα/PGC1α/PPARα signaling pathway to promote liver FFA oxidation and reduce liver TG deposition.
