Objective: To explore the impact of different blood donation scenarios on population characteristics and blood donation behaviors, and to provide a basis for precise blood donation recruitment. Methods: Eligible voluntary blood donors with complete records from four scenarios in Xi'an: medical institutions, cultural tourism SITES, commercial superstores, and blood centers. After a preliminary analysis of overall donor characteristics across the four scenarios, three core subgroups were defined based on scenarios and donor population differences: the medical subgroup (aged 30-39 years), the blood center subgroup (aged 30-39 years), and the cultural tourism and commercial superstore subgroup (aged 18-29 years). Baseline characteristics, blood donation behaviors, and blood test results were compared among the subgroups. Results: The blood donors in all four scenarios were mainly male, but the proportion of female donors in the medical scenario was the highest (26.4%, 8 878/33 634). In terms of age distribution, the cultural tourism and commercial superstore scenarios were dominated by donors aged 18-29, while the blood center and medical scenarios were dominated by those aged 30-39, with the highest proportion of donors over 40 in the medical scenario. The occupational and educational composition of blood donors in the blood center scenario spanned a wide range, exhibiting a clear bipolar distribution. Significant differences were observed in baseline characteristics, blood donation behaviors, and blood test results among the three core subgroups (P<0.001). The medical subgroup was mainly composed of enterprise/industrial workers and married individuals, with high proportions of first-time blood donors, and the highest unqualified rate of infectious indicators (2.0%, 274/13 509). The cultural tourism and commercial superstore subgroup was mainly unmarried and students, featured high proportions of large-volume donations and evening donations, and had a relatively high unqualified rate for ALT (0.4%, 130/31 443). The blood center subgroup had a complex population structure, a high proportion of repeat blood donors (45.3%, 6449/14 225), and moderate results in all test indicators. Conclusion: There is an inherent correlation between the attributes of blood donation scenarios, population characteristics, and blood donation behaviors. The differences among the three core subgroups provide a clear basis for precise scenario operation. By constructing transformation channels between different scenarios and optimizing scenario-specific strategies, the structure of blood donors can be improved, thereby supporting the sustainable development of voluntary blood donation.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the current status of clinical genetics specialization development and the diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities for hereditary diseases across medical institutions in Shanghai, and to assess the necessity and feasibility of establishing training bases for clinical genetics specialists. METHODS: By employing a cross-sectional survey design, the Clinical Genetics Committee of Shanghai Medical Association has conducted questionnaire surveys from March to April 2025 across 54 healthcare institutions in Shanghai (including 33 tertiary hospitals and 21 secondary hospitals). The survey involved administrative departments and medical personnel from 15 clinical specialties. The survey has covered current genetic disease diagnosis and treatment practices, relevant and specialised disease types, genetic department establishment, testing capabilities, personnel teams, and training requirements. RESULTS: The results revealed that 78.0% of clinical departments surveyed had treated patients with hereditary disorders. Shanghai possesses diagnostic and therapeutic expertise for over 95% of hereditary diseases listed in its rare disease catalogue, reflecting both the practical clinical demand for such conditions and the city's overall diagnostic and therapeutic strengths in this field. Nevertheless, significant disparities exist in the development of genetics departments across different tiers of healthcare institutions. Resources for genetic testing capabilities (including molecular, cellular, and biochemical testing) are also unevenly distributed across different tiers of hospitals. The survey further revealed that only 26.0% of departments believe that their current physician structure fully meets the diagnostic and treatment demands. Over 90% of departments consider standard training for clinical genetic specialists necessary, with 74.0% expressing willingness to participate in establishing training bases. Based on above findings and thorough deliberation, the Clinical Genetics Committee of the Shanghai Medical Association proposes advancing specialist training and discipline development through establishing a standard training system. The committee has drafted a three-year training protocol featuring a "joint training"-centered model, recommending a pilot-first, dynamically optimized strategy for steadily advancing training base development. CONCLUSION Shanghai faces substantial demand for genetic disease diagnosis and treatment, yet exhibits shortcomings in clinical genetics specialization development, resource allocation, and talent pipeline cultivation. To establish a standard training system holds significant practical importance and is underpinned by a broad demand.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the expression and clinical significance of Periostin in tissues of patients with chronic rhinosinusitis(CRS).METHODS Real-time quantitative PCR and immunohistochemistry were used to detect periostin expression in eosinophilic CRS with nasal polyps(ECRSwNP),non-eosinophilic CRS with nasal polyps(non-ECRSwNP),CRS without nasal polyps(CRSsNP),and control tissues.Correlations between periostin levels and blood eosinophil percentage(Eos%),Lund-Mackay score,modified endoscopic score,and Japanese epidemiological survey of refractory eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis(JESREC)score were analyzed.Additionally,changes in SNOT-22 and VAS scores were compared at different preoperative and postoperative times.The predictive value of periostin for ECRSwNP was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis.RESULTS Periostin expression was detected in all groups(ECRSwNP,non-ECRSwNP,CRSsNP,and controls),with predominant localization in the basement membrane and mucosal subepithelial lamina propria.Significantly elevated periostin levels were detected in the ECRSwNP group compared to the other three groups(P<0.001).Furthermore,Periostin mRNA expression showed significant positive correlations with blood Eos%,JESREC score,and Lund-Mackay score.SNOT-22 and VAS scores were significantly elevated in the ECRSwNP group at preoperative evaluation and 9 months postoperatively(P<0.001).ROC curve analysis demonstrated that periostin had a substantial predictive value for ECRSwNP(AUC=0.957).CONCLUSION Periostin plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of chronic rhinosinusitis,contributing to the diagnosis,severity assessment,and prognosis evaluation of ECRSwNP,while offering potential therapeutic targets for CRS management.

Objective To investigate the relationship between serum dephosphorylated uncarboxylated ma-trix Gla protein(dp-ucMGP),oncostatin receptor(OSMR),C1q tumor necrosis factor-related protein 15(CTRP15)and the degree of coronary artery disease and in-stent restenosis after percutaneous coronary inter-vention(PCI)in patients with acute coronary syndrome(ACS).Methods A total of 162 ACS patients who underwent PCI in this hospital from January 2021 to January 2023 were selected as the research objects.Ac-cording to the degree of coronary artery disease,the patients were divided into low lesion group(n=48),me-dium lesion group(n=80)and high lesion group(n=34).According to follow-up records,the patients were divided into stenosis group(n=40)and non-stenosis group(n=122).Serum dp-ucMGP,OSMR and CTRP15 levels were detected,and general clinical data were collected and analyzed in ACS patients.Multivariate Logis-tic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of in-stent restenosis after PCI.The receiver operat-ing characteristic(ROC)curve was drawn to analyze the predictive value of dp-ucMGP,OSMR and CTRP15 for in-stent restenosis after PCI.Results Compared with the low lesion group,the serum levels of dp-ucMGP in the medium lesion group and the high lesion group were increased(P<0.05),while the levels of OSMR and CTRP15 were decreased(P<0.05).Compared with the medium lesion group,the serum level of dp-uc-MGP in the high lesion group was increased(P<0.05),while the levels of OSMR and CTRP15 were de-creased(P<0.05).The lesion length,preoperative stenosis degree,stent length and serum troponin I,N-ter-minal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide,C-reactive protein(CRP),dp-ucMGP levels in stenosis group were higher than those in non-stenosis group(P<0.05),while OSMR and CTRP15 levels were lower than those in non-stenosis group(P<0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of dp-ucMGP,OSMR and CTRP15 alone and in combination for predicting in-stent restenosis after PCI was 0.839,0.849,0.838 and 0.922,respectively.The AUC of combined prediction was higher than that of dp-ucMGP(Z=2.304,P=0.021),OSMR(Z=2.073,P=0.038),and CTRP15(Z=2.414,P=0.016)alone.Stent length and CRP,dp-ucMGP levels were risk fac-tors for in-stent restenosis,while CTRP15 and OSMR levels were protective factors(P<0.05).Conclusion In ACS patients with in-stent restenosis after PCI,serum dp-ucMGP level is increased,and OS-MR and CTRP15 levels are decreased,which are related to the degree of coronary artery disease and in-stent restenosis after PCI,and have certain auxiliary predictive value for in-stent restenosis after PCI.

Objective To investigate the evaluation value of lymphocyte count(LYM),interleukin(IL)-6 and D-dimer on the severity in the patients with sepsis.Methods The clinical data in 107 patients with sepsis admitted and treated in the Emergency ICU(EICU)of this hospital from January 2023 to November 2023 were retrospectively analyzed.The basic clinical data,laboratory routine inflammatory indicators,im-mune indicators,coagulation indicators and the related disease condition score within 24 h after entering EICU were collected.The patients were divided into the sepsis group(n=54)and septic shock group(n=53)ac-cording to whether or not septic shock occurred.The multivariate logistic regression model was used to ana-lyze the influencing factors of septic shock occurrence,the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to analyze the diagnostic efficiency,and Spearman correlation method was used to analyze the correlation between LYM,IL-6 and D-dimer with septic shock occurrence in the patients with sepsis.Results The se-quential organ failure assessment(SOFA)score,acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHEⅡ)score and the levels of LYM,CRP,IL-6 and D-dimer had statistically significantly differences between the two groups(P＜0.05).The multivariate logistic regression analysis results showed that LYM,IL-6 and D-di-mer were the influencing factors of septic shock occurrence(P＜0.05).The ROC curve analysis results showed that LYM,IL-6 and D-dimer alone or combination detection all had certain predictive value for septic shock occurrence,but the area under the curve(AUC),sensitivity and specificity of the three combined detec-tion were higher than those of detection alone.The Spearman correlation analysis results showed that IL-6(r=0.407)and D-dimer(r=0.482)levels were positively correlated with the severity of septic shock,while the LYM level(r=-0.513)was negatively correlated with the severity of septic shock(P＜0.01).Conclusion The combination application of LYM,IL-6 and D-dimer could effectively evaluate the severity of the patients with sepsis.

AIM:To investigate the effects of cigarette smoke exposure during adolescence on the inflammato-ry response mediated by microglia in the prefrontal cortex of mice,and its impact on learning and memory functions in adulthood.METHODS:72 two-week-old healthy male Kunming mice,with each weighing(11.0±1.5)g,were random-ly divided into control and cigarette exposure groups(n=36 per group).The mice in the cigarette exposure group were pas-sively exposed to 6 cigarettes daily for 10 weeks.At three time points of 4-week-old(infancy),8-week-old(adoles-cence),and 12-week-old(adulthood),six mice were selected from each group to have their neurobehavioral and patholog-ical changes examined.In particular,the step-down test,three-chamber social interaction test,and novel object recogni-tion test were used to detect changes in learning and memory abilities and cognitive behavior.Immunofluorescence testing was performed to detect the morphology,number of synapses,and expression of inflammatory factor apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a CARD(ASC)around the microglial cells in the prefrontal cortex of mice in each group.Western blot was performed to assess the expression levels of synaptophysin(SYP)and postsynaptic density protein-95(PSD-95)in the cerebral cortex of mice in each group.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)was performed to detect the protein expression of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin 1β(IL-1β),and IL-6 in the prefrontal cor-tex.RESULTS:(1)In the step-down test,the latency of mice at 8 and 12 weeks of age was significantly shortened,and the number of errors was significantly increased in the cigarette exposure group compared with the age-matched control group(P＜0.01).In addition,the social recognition time and exploration time for novel objects were prolonged(P＜0.05).(2)Immunofluorescence assays revealed that exposure to cigarette smoke in mice,at both 8 and 12 weeks of age,resulted in a reduction of SYP-positive puncta within the prefrontal cortex.Concurrently,there was an observed increase in the number of Iba1-positive microglia,which exhibited an activated phenotype,as well as an elevation in ASC-positive puncta in proximity to the microglia.Western blot further revealed reduced expression of synaptophysin protein SYP and PSD-95 in the cerebral cortex of the mice at 8 and 12 weeks of age in the cigarette exposure group(P＜0.05).(3)ELISA showed increased levels of inflammatory factors TNF-α,IL-1β,and IL-6 in the prefrontal cortex of the mice at 8 and 12 weeks of age in the cigarette exposure group(P＜0.05).CONCLUSION:Exposure to cigarette smoke during adoles-cence in mice may result in the enhanced secretion of inflammatory factors through the activation of microglia in the pre-frontal cortex.This activation can alter microglial function and induce synaptic damage,consequently impairing learning,memory,and cognitive abilities in adulthood.
