Objective: To statistically analyze the association between blood donation intervals and the incidence of adverse reactions to blood donation based on blood donor data from Shenzhen. Methods: Basic data and records of adverse reactions to blood donation among voluntary whole blood donors in Shenzhen from January 2017 to June 2025 were extracted. A total of 795 404 whole blood donations were recorded, including 502 743 from males and 292 661 from females, with 1 088 and 751 cases of adverse reactions, respectively. Analyses were performed using R software, including restricted cubic spline (RCS), binary logistic regression, and generalized estimating equations (GEE) to evaluate the correlation between donation intervals and adverse reactions. Results: A total of 1 839 cases of adverse reactions were recorded, accounting for 0.23% of the total donations. Both binary logistic regression analysis and the generalized estimating equations (GEE) model showed that there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between male and female donors with an interval of ≥6 months compared to those with an interval of ≥3 months but<6 months. Furthermore, using the 3-5 month interval group as the reference, the analysis indicated that the incidence of adverse reactions significantly increased in males with a 9-12 month interval, while no statistically significant differences were observed across any of the female subgroups. Conclusion: There was no significant correlation between adverse reactions to blood donation and the donation interval. Compared with a donation interval of ≥6 months, an interval of<6 months does not lead to an increase in the incidence of adverse reactions among male or female donors. The findings of this study may help enhance the willingness of blood donors to participate.

Objective: To statistically analyze the association between blood donor age and the incidence of adverse reactions based on whole blood donor data from Shenzhen. Methods: Data on basic characteristics and records of adverse donation reactions among voluntary whole blood donors in Shenzhen from January 2017 to June 2025 were extracted. A total of 795 404 whole blood donations were recorded, including 502 743 from males and 292 661 from females, with 1 088 and 751 cases of adverse reactions, respectively. Analyses were performed using R software, including restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis, binary logistic regression, and generalized estimating equations (GEE) to evaluate the correlation between donor age and adverse reactions. Results: A total of 1 839 cases of adverse reactions were recorded, accounting for 0.23% of the total donations. Both binary logistic regression and GEE model revealed that, compared with the≤55 years age group, the incidence of adverse reactions was reduced in both male and female donors in the >55 years age group, with the difference being statistically significant in males. Using the <23 years age group as a reference, the incidence of adverse reactions significantly decreased in both male and female donors across the 23-30, 31-40, 41-50, and 51-60 age groups, with the differences being statistically significant. Conclusion: There is a negative correlation between the rate of adverse donation reactions and age, with the incidence of such reactions among whole blood donors over 55 years old being no higher than that among donors aged 55 years or younger. These findings carry positive significance for safeguarding the donation rights of older donors and meeting clinical blood demand.

Objective: Some regions in China have lowered the minimum interval for whole blood donation to 3 months through local regulations: Hainan, effective from March 1, 2012, allows men to donate at intervals of≥3 months and women at intervals of≥4 months; Shenzhen, effective from November 1, 1995, allows whole blood donation at intervals of≥3 months. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of shortening the whole blood donation interval on blood donation adverse reactions and donation behavior, thereby providing scientific evidence for policy evaluation and revision of relevant regulations. Methods: This was a multicenter, retrospective cohort study based on blood donation registry data from Shenzhen and Hainan. Data were obtained from the blood information management systems of Hainan Province (1991-2025) and Shenzhen City (2018-2024). Eligible participants were donors aged 18-65 years who had donated whole blood at least twice and met health eligibility criteria. The exposure was defined as a shorter donation interval (whole-blood interval≥3 months and<6 months) and was treated as a time-varying variable. The primary outcome was blood donation adverse reactions. Negative binomial regression with person-years as an offset was used to estimate incidence rate ratios for adverse reactions. Marginal standardization was used to estimate the adjusted incidence rate difference, and donor-level bootstrap resampling was used to estimate the 95% confidence interval of the adjusted incidence rate difference. Non-inferiority was assessed by comparing the upper limit of the 95% confidence interval with the prespecified non-inferiority margin of Δ=0.00 070 per person-year. In addition, Andersen-Gill models were used to analyze adverse reaction-free probability for recurrent events. Secondary outcomes were donation behavior, including annual repeat donation rate, annual donation frequency, mean donation interval, and annual whole-blood donation volume. These were analyzed using logistic regression, negative binomial regression, and linear regression models, respectively, with adjustment for age, sex, region, and donation site. This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Institute of Blood Transfusion, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences (Approval No.2025011) and registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2500114968). Results: A total of 375 075 repeat whole-blood donors were included, contributing 1 292 748 whole-blood donations. Among them, 119 993 had ever donated at a shorter interval and 255 082 had never done so. Over 1 281 842 person-years of follow-up in the dynamic cohort, 2 100 blood donation adverse reactions were recorded. The incidence rates of adverse reactions were 1.76 and 1.58 per 1 000 person-years in the ever-short interval and never-short interval groups, respectively. After adjustment for age, sex, province, and donation site, the ever-short interval group had a slightly higher adverse reaction rate than the never-short interval group (IRR=1.28, 95%CI: 1.15-1.41, P<0.001). Marginal standardization showed that the adjusted incidence rates were 1.73 and 2.21 per 1 000 person-years in the never-short interval and ever-short interval groups, respectively. The adjusted incidence rate difference was 0.000 48 per person-year, with a bootstrap 95%CI of 0.000 26-0.000 69 per person-year; the upper limit of the 95%CI was below the prespecified non-inferiority margin. Andersen-Gill recurrent-event analysis showed that the ever-short interval group had a higher probability of remaining adverse reaction-free. Analysis of donation behavior showed that among donors followed for at least 365 days, the ever-short interval group had a higher annual repeat donation rate than the never-short interval group (74.2% vs 18.3%; adjusted OR=12.5, 95%CI: 12.3-12.7, P<0.001). They also had a higher annual whole-blood donation rate (adjusted RR=1.98, 95%CI: 1.97-1.98, P<0.001), a shorter mean whole-blood donation interval (β=-239 days, 95%CI: -242 to -237 days, P<0.001), and a higher annual whole-blood donation volume (adjusted RR=2.14, 95%CI: 2.13-2.15, P<0.001). Conclusion: Based on real-world data from repeat whole-blood donors in Shenzhen and Hainan, lowering the minimum whole blood donation interval to 3 months did not show an absolute increase in blood donation adverse reactions exceeding the prespecified margin within the scope of this outcome. Shorter whole-blood donation interval behavior was also associated with greater repeat-donation activity, higher annual donation frequency, and higher annual whole-blood donation volume. Given the observational nature of this study and the lack of long-term donor health indicators such as iron status and longitudinal hemoglobin changes, the long-term safety of setting the minimum whole blood donation interval at 3 months requires further evaluation.

Objective: To construct a 5G unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) airport platform for blood transportation and explore its feasibility and advantages within the blood emergency support system. Methods: Based on 5G high-speed network transmission technology, a UAV management system was designed to achieve a closed-loop management of the entire transportation process, including blood distribution, route information, flight status, emergency dispatch, hospital reception, real-time temperature monitoring, and video surveillance. Integrated with an open UAV airport, the first "5G UAV Blood Transportation Intelligent Airport Platform" was established. Results: At present, the platform has settled in 2 sets of UAV systems, established 17 routes, and carried out regular UAV blood transportation services for 15 hospitals. From January 1, 2024 to June 30, 2025, a total of 12 134 sorties were completed, with a total transported blood weight of 7 692.38 kg, including 25 500 units of red blood cells, 3 824.5 units of platelets, 1 350 370 mL of plasma, and 10 810 units of cryoprecipitate. Compared to land transportation, UAV delivery saved an average of 46.8 minutes during rush hours (maximum: 89.3 minutes) and an average of 32.3 minutes during non-rush hours (maximum: 59.1 minutes). In terms of the quality of UAV blood transportation, the temperature of suspended red blood cells was between 4 and 8℃, that of platelets was between 20 and 24℃, and that of plasma was below 0℃. No damage has occurred so far. Conclusion: The UAV blood transportation platform can stably provide blood delivery services during both routine and emergency conditions, ensuring timely blood delivery and stable blood quality.

Objective:To explore the association between cardiovascular health behaviors and hyperuricemia (HUA) among community residents of different age groups.Methods:It was a cross-sectional study. A total of 2 138 community residents aged (47.1±11.6) years with 1 012 males (47.3%) were selected by cluster sampling method as study subjects in Taiyuan Nanzhai Community from March to November 2020. There were 104 cases aged 8-18 years (underage group), 868 cases aged 19-44 years (youth group), 625 cases aged 45-59 years (middle-aged group), 375 cases aged 60-74 years (young elderly group), and 166 cases aged≥75 years (elderly group). Blood uric acid was measured and>420 μmol/L was defined as HUA, there were 385 cases with high uric acid level (HUA group) and 1 753 cases with normal uric acid levels (control group). The general information was collected by questionnaires, and general ergonomic indicators were measured on-site by medical personnel. The cardiovascular health behaviors included smoking, exercise, diet, and sleep in study subjects were documented. Multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the related factors of HUA.Results:Among 2 138 participants, 1 161 (54.3%) had never smoked (up to standard), and the order of proportion of non-smokers from high to low was underage group, elderly group, young elderly group, young group and middle-aged group ( P<0.001); 486(22.7%) people met the dietary standards, and the order of proportion of meeting the dietary standards from high to low was underage group, elderly group, young elderly group, middle-aged group, and young group ( P<0.001); 554(25.9%) people achieved physical fitness standards, and the order of the proportion of achieving physical fitness standards from high to low was young elderly group, middle-aged group, elderly group, underage group, and young group ( P<0.001); 783 (36.6%) people met the sleep standards, and the order of proportion meeting the sleep standards from high to low was underage group, youth group, middle-aged group, young elderly group, and elderly group ( P<0.001). Among the participants, only 39 (1.8%) met the standards for all 4 types of behaviors; 485 (22.7%), 1 229 (57.5%), and 424 (19.8%) had low, medium, and high total scores for ideal cardiovascular health behaviors, respectively. The total score of ideal cardiovascular health behaviors ranked from high to low was elderly group, young elderly group, underage group, middle-aged group, and young group ( P<0.001). The multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that body mass index (BMI) ( OR=1.125, 95% CI: 1.086-1.165) was positively correlated with HUA, while female ( OR=0.241, 95% CI: 0.182-0.320), total score of cardiovascular health behaviors (compared to lower level, intermediate level: OR=0.186, 95% CI: 0.127-0.273, high level: OR=0.038, 95% CI: 0.020-0.072), and number of achieved healthy behavior items ( OR=0.757, 95% CI: 0.621-0.922) were negatively correlated with HUA. Conclusions:The underage group has the highest number of people who meet the smoking, dietary, and sleep standards, the young and elderly group has the highest number of people who meet the exercise standards, and the elderly group has the highest total score for ideal cardiovascular health behaviors. There is a positive correlation between BMI and HUA, while there is a negative correlation of HUA with female, the total score and number of achieved items of cardiovascular health behaviors.
