[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 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 explore the trend of hearing changes in infants with GJB2 gene p.V37I mutation at different months. Methods:The subjects were 54 children（108 ears） with p.V37I homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in GJB2 gene. All the subjects underwent auditory brainstem response, auditory steady-state response, acoustic immittance and other audiological tests. Children were divided into three groups according to their age, 26 cases in group A were ≤3 months old, 17 cases in group B were>3~≤6 months old, and 11 cases in group C were>6 months old. Statistical analysis was performed on the three groups of ABR response threshold, hearing degree, the ASSR average response threshold of four frequencies and the ASSR response thresholds for each frequency of 500, 1 000, 2 000 and 4 000 Hz. Results:Among the 54 cases, 35 were male and 19 were female, with an age rang of 2-27 months and a median age of 4 months. The ABR response threshold of the three groups were ranked from low to high as group A, group B and group C, and the difference was statistically significant（P<0.05）. The ABR response thresholds of the three groups were ranked from low to high as group A, group B, and group C. The comparison between groups showed that the ABR response thresholds of group C was higher than that of group A（P=0.006）. The proportion of confirmed hearing loss in the three groups was 34.61%, 50.00% and 63.64%, respectively, and the difference of hearing level among the three groups was statistically significant（P<0.05）. The comparison between groups showed that the difference between group A and group C was statistically significant（P=0.012）, normal hearing accounted for the highest proportion in group A（65.39%）, while mild hearing loss accounted for the highest proportion in group C（45.46%）. The ASSR average response thresholds of the four frequencies in the three groups were ranked from low to high as group A, group B and group C, and the difference is statistically significant（P<0.05）. The comparison between groups showed that response ASSR thresholds of group C was higher than that of group A（P=0.002）. Response thresholds of ASSR in each frequency in the three groups were all ranked from low to high as in group A, group B and group C, and the differences were statistically significant（P<0.05）. Compared with each other between groups, response ASSR thresholds of group C was higher than those of group A（P=0.003） and group B（P=0.015） at 500 Hz, while response ASSR thresholds of group C was higher than group A at 1 000 Hz（P=0.010） and 2 000 Hz（P<0.001）, and there was no statistical difference at 4 000 Hz. Conclusion:The incidence of hearing loss in GJB2 gene p.V37I mutation increased with age, and the degree of hearing loss increased, the hearing progression was mainly 500, 1 000 and 2 000 Hz suggesting regular follow-up and alert to hearing changes.

Objective:To explore the hearing changes of children with different genotypes of SLC26A4 with enlarged vestibular aqueduct（EVA） using the linear mixed effect model（LMM）, providing evidence for the risk prediction of progressive hearing loss. Methods:A total of 48 children with EVA diagnosed in our hospital from January 2017 to January 2024. All subjects underwent two or more auditory tests. According to the results of deafness gene screening and sequencing, the genotypes are divided into: type A: homozygous mutation of c. 919-2A>G, type B: compound heterozygous or heterozygous mutation containing c. 919-2A>G, and type C: no mutation site of c. 919-2A>G of SLC26A4 gene. LMM was used to analyze the hearing thresholds change of 500 Hz, 1 000 Hz, 2 000 Hz, 4 000 Hz and the average in children with different genotypes with age. Results:A total of 92 ears, 314 audiograms of 48 children were included, the median number of audiograms was 3, the median age of initial diagnosis was 4 months, and the median follow-up time was 13 months. According to LMM, the standard deviation of random effects between patients and ears was large. There was no significant difference in hearing thresholds of different frequencies and the average in genotype A, genotype B, and genotype C, indicating that genotype had no effect on hearing threshold. There is an interaction between age and genotype. Taking genotype C as the reference, children with genotype B had the lowest increase in 500 Hz, 1000 Hz, and the average hearing threshold, followed by type A. Conclusion:EVA children exhibit substantial inter-individual/ear hearing threshold variability. Low-frequency thresholds progress slower than high frequencies. Genotype modulates progression rates, with wild-type（Type C） demonstrating fastest deterioration, supporting personalized auditory monitoring strategies.

OBJECTIVE To analyze the difference of genotypes and hearing phenotypes in infants with biallelic allele variant in GJB2,and to provide reference for clinical practice. METHODS One hundred and forty-two subjects with biallelic allele variant in GJB2 were recruited in Beijing Tongren Hospital from August 2012 to March 2024. All subjects received universal newborn hearing screening(UNHS),neonatal deafness genetic screening and audiological tests. The subjects were divided into three groups according to the genotypes:T/T groups(truncated/truncated mutations,59 cases),T/NT group(truncated/non-truncated mutations,50 cases) and NT/NT group(non-truncated/non-truncated mutations,33 cases). Three groups of genotypes,newborn hearing screening results,age at first diagnosis and hearing diagnosis results were analyzed. RESULTS The homozygous mutation of c.235delC/c.235delC was the dominant in T/T group(57.63％),the compound heterozygous mutation of c.235delC/c.109G>A was the dominant in T/NT group(74.00％),and the homozygous mutation of c.109G>A/c.109G>A was the dominant in NT/NT group(96.97％). The overall refer rate of UNHS was 80.28％,and the refer rate of T/T group was 89.83％,which was significantly higher than that of T/NT group 70.00％(P=0.009). The age of first diagnosis of 142 cases was (3.70±1.56) months,there was no significant difference between the three groups(P>0.05). In 142 cases,104 cases with hearing loss accounted for 73.24％,38 cases with normal hearing accounted for 26.76％. The proportion of confirmed hearing loss in T/T group was 100.00％,which was significantly higher than that in T/NT group 52.00％(P<0.001) and NT/NT group 57.58％(P<0.001). In side of hearing loss,of the 104 patients with hearing loss,86 cases(82.69％) had bilateral hearing loss and 18 cases(17.31％) had unilateral hearing loss. The proportion of bilateral hearing loss in T/T group was 100.00％,which was significantly higher than that in T/NT group 57.69％(P<0.001) and NT/NT group 63.16％(P<0.001). Among 190 ears of 104 patients with hearing loss,the degree of hearing loss was predominantly mild to moderate(63.16％),followed by profound(24.74％) and severe(12.10％). Among them,the T/T group was mainly marked by severe to profound hearing loss(58.47％),while both the T/NT group and the NT/NT group were mainly characterized by mild hearing loss(58.54％ and 74.19％),and the differences among the three groups were statistically significant(P<0.001). CONCLUSION In the T/T group,all patients were diagnosed as bilateral hearing loss at first diagnosis,and was mainly severe and profound hearing loss. The bilateral and unilateral hearing loss were 52.00％ and 57.58％ in the T/NT group and NT/NT group at first diagnosis respectively,and was mainly mild hearing loss.

Objective To establish a scientific training program that takes into account both anaerobic and aerobic training for pilots,and to explore the appropriate ratio of aerobic and anaerobic training.Methods According to the physical examination standards for pilots,a total of 16 healthy subjects aged 18-24 were selected from two batches.The two batches of subjects were trained with different aerobic and anaerobic ratios.Training period was 3 months.The changes in cardiopulmonary function of the subjects before and after training were evaluated using the cardiopulmonary function exercise testing system(CPET),and the changes in anaerobic capacity were evaluated using changes in strength as an indicator.Results After training,the weight load of the subjects in the two training programs,including barbell squats,leg flexion and hard pull,and barbell under 10RM and 3RM,was significantly increased(P<0.001),and there was no statistically significant difference in anaerobic strength growth between the two groups.The results of CPET showed that the maximum load,maximum heart rate,and respiratory quotient in the two groups were significantly increased after than before the training(P<0.01).The maximum load(Experiment group 1:29.12±19.69,Experiment group 2:72.00±46.24)and respiratory quotient(Experiment grouop 1:0.11±0.09,Experiment group 2:0.28±0.16)of the subjects in experiment group 2 before and after training were greater than those in experiment group 1.The difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Conclusion The anaerobic and aerobic capacities of the subjects in the experiment group 2 are effectively improved,indicating that ratio of aerobic and anaerobic of the training scheme is better.

Objectives The combined use of bedaquiline and delamanid(BDQ-DLM)is limited by an increased risk of prolonging the QTc interval.We retrospectively evaluated patients who received DLM/BDQ-containing regimens at a TB-specialized hospital.We aimed to present clinical efficacy and safety data for Chinese patients. Methods This case-control study included patients with multidrug-resistant tuberculosis(MDR-TB)treated with BDQ alone or BDQ plus DLM. Results A total of 96 patients were included in this analysis:64 in the BDQ group and 32 in the BDQ+DLM group.Among the 96 patients with positive sputum culture at the initiation of BDQ alone or BDQ combined with DLM,46 patients(71.9%)in the BDQ group and 29(90.6%)in the BDQ-DLM group achieved sputum culture conversion during treatment.The rate of sputum culture conversion did not differ between the two groups.The time to sputum culture conversion was significantly shorter in the BDQ-DLM group than in the BDQ group.The most frequent adverse event was QTc interval prolongation;however,the frequency of adverse events did not differ between the groups. Conclusion In conclusion,our results demonstrate that the combined use of BDQ and DLM is efficacious and tolerable in Chinese patients infected with MDR-TB.Patients in the BDQ-DLM group achieved sputum culture conversion sooner than those in the BDQ group.

[Abstract] [Objective] To compare and analyze the efficacy of platelet transfusion in patients with different doses, and to analyze the risk factors for platelet transfusion refractoriness. [Methods] A total of 5 827 patients who received platelet transfusion in the PLA General Hospital from May 2023 to May 2024 were selected as the research subjects, among which 4 780 patients were transfused with 1 therapeutic dose of platelets, and 1 047 patients were transfused with 0.5 therapeutic dose of platelets, and the efficacy of platelet transfusion was compared between the two groups. The effects of gender, disease type, white blood cell count before transfusion, fever, number of platelet transfusions, and platelet antibodies on platelet transfusion refractoriness were analyzed using univariate analysis, and the independent risk factors affecting platelet transfusion refractoriness were further analyzed by multivariate logistic regression. [Results] Among 4 780 patients, 3553 (74.3%) were effective and 1 227 (25.7%) were ineffective. Among 1 047 patients, 0.5 platelet infusion was effective in 755 cases (72.1%) and ineffective in 292 cases (27.9%). There was no significant difference in the effective rate of platelet transfusion between the two groups (P>0.05). Univariate analysis showed that the therapeutic effect of platelet transfusion was related to age, the number of platelet transfusion, disease type, platelet antibodies and white blood cell count before transfusion (P<0.05), while age, gender, fever and blood type were not related to the therapeutic effect of platelet transfusion (P>0.05). The results of multi-factor analysis showed that age, white blood cell count >50×10⁹/L, platelet transfusion times, disease type and platelet antibody were independent risk factors for ineffective transfusion (P<0.05). [Conclusion] There is no significant difference in the efficacy of platelet infusion with 0.5 therapeutic dose or 1 therapeutic dose. In addition, age, white blood cell count >50×10⁹/L, the number of platelet transfusion, disease type and platelet antibodies were the factors affecting the ineffective platelet transfusion in group 2.
