[Objective] To investigate the infection and characteristics of hepatitis E virus among blood donors in Hangzhou. [Methods] A total of 5 075 blood samples of blood donors from Zhejiang Provincial Blood Center from September to November 2023 were collected, including 5 037 samples with normal ALT and 38 samples with elevated ALT (>50 U/L). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect anti-HEV IgM, anti-HEV IgG and HEV-Ag. The Fisher test and Chi-square test were used to evaluate the difference in the reactivity rates of anti-HEV IgM and anti-HEV IgG among different levels of ALT. The distribution characteristics of HEV screening in blood donors were analyzed. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were used to analyze the susceptibility factors of anti-HEV IgM and anti-HEV IgG seropositivity, and the anti-HEV IgM-reactive blood donors were followed up by telephone. [Results] The reactivity rates of anti-HEV IgM, anti-HEV IgG and HEV-Ag in 5 075 blood samples were 0.45%, 22.98% and 0%, respectively. There was no difference in the reactivity rates of anti-HEV IgM and anti-HEV IgG among different levels of ALT (P>0.05), and the results of univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age was a risk factor for anti-HEV IgM and anti-HEV IgG reactivity in blood donors (P<0.05), while no difference in the reactivity rates of anti-HEV IgM and anti-HEV IgG among blood donors was noticed in gender, occupation and education level (P>0.05). [Conclusion] There is a potential risk of transfusion-transmitted HEV (TT-HEV) in Hangzhou, and a cost-effective HEV screening strategy needs to be established to continue regular HEV surveillance in Hangzhou to assess the risk of infection.

Objective To investigate the association between neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and the state of sustained immune response after hepatitis B vaccination, to explore the possibility to predict the effect of hepatitis B vaccination.Methods Data were analysed from 10 153 individuals aged 18 years and older who had received three doses of hepatitis B vaccine and met the inclusion criteria in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 1999-2018. They were divided into seropositive and seronegative groups based on the results of post-vaccination hepatitis B marker testing. The association between NLR and sustained immune response status after hepatitis B vaccination was assessed using a variety of methods, including multivariate weighted logistic regression models, generalised linear analysis, and smoothed curve fitting.Results This study included 10 153 subjects with a mean age of 35.36 years, 42.82% male and 57.18% female. Adjusted multivariate weighted logistic regression models showed that for each unit increase in NLR level, the odds of a sustained immune response after hepatitis B vaccination decreased by 7% (OR=0.93, 95%CI: 0.88-0.97). Stratified analysis of NLR levels showed that the odds of a sustained immune response were 37% lower in the group with the highest NLR levels (T4) compared with the lowest group (T1) (OR=0.63, 95%CI: 0.47-0.85), and the odds of a sustained immune response were 30% lower in the T3 group compared with the T1 group (OR=0.70, 95%CI: 0.53-0.91). Restricted cubic spline analysis showed a non-linear relationship between NLR and sustained immune response status after hepatitis B vaccination (P non-linear<0.05), approximating an 'L' curve. Inflection point analysis showed that when NLR <2.16, elevated NLR significantly reduced the occurrence of sustained immune response status after hepatitis B vaccination; when NLR >2.16, the effect of its elevation on the production of sustained immune response after vaccination leveled off.Conclusion NLR levels were negatively associated with the development of a sustained immune response after hepatitis B vaccination. Lower NLR levels have a strong positive correlation with sustained immune response after hepatitis B vaccination, whereas higher NLR levels may attenuate the effect of hepatitis B vaccination.

Objective:To explore the surgical technique and results of three-dimensional aortic valve anatomic repair for bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) with aortic regurgitation (AR).Methods:This is a retrospective case series study. From August 2021 to December 2023, 130 consecutive patients with BAV-AR underwent aortic valve anatomic repair at the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University,and the data were retrospectively analyzed. There were 115 males and 15 females, aged (38.6±11.7) years (range: 15 to 67 years). All patients received modified aortic root reconstruction, to do three-dimensional root remodeling, including the basal ring, sinus of Valsalva and sino-tubular junction simultaneously. Perioperative and follow-up data were collected and analyzed. Comparisons between groups were performed using independent samples t-test, Wilcoxon paired signed-rank test, or χ2 test. Results:No patient transferred to valve replacement during the operation. The cardiopulmonary bypass time ( M(IQR)) was 109(34) minutes (range:67 to 247 minutes), and the aortic cross-clamp time was 76(26) minutes (range: 32 to 158 minutes). Preoperative transesophageal echocardiography showed 123 patients (94.6%) presented with moderate or severe regurgitation. Immediately postoperative transesophageal echocardiography showed no regurgitation in 22 patients (16.9%), trace regurgitation in 81 patients (62.3%) and mild regurgitation in 27 patients (20.8%). Follow up was completed in all patients, with a follow-up of 5.5(9.4) months (range: 0.1 to 27.6 months). No mortality was observed during follow-up. Echocardiography was obtained in 112 patients at the latest follow-up, including no regurgitation in 4 patients (3.6%), trace regurgitation in 58 patients (51.8%), mild regurgitation in 45 patients (40.2%), moderate regurgitation in 4 patients (3.6%), and severe regurgitation in 1 patient (0.9%). Conclusion:For patients with BAV-AR who have good valve quality and no severe aortic sinus dilation, the recent outcomes of three-dimensional anatomical repair technique, focusing on overall remodeling of the aortic root, are satisfactory.

ObjectiveTo explore the possible mechanism of Yupingfeng Granules (玉屏风散) in preventing and treating chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) from the perspective of “lung-gut axis”. MethodsThirty-two male Wistar rats were randomly divided into normal group,model group, roxithromycin group and Yupingfeng Granules group, with 8 rats in each group. Except for the normal group, the rat model of COPD was prepared by intratracheal instillation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) combined with smoking for 12 weeks. Since the fifth week of modeling,the roxithromycin group and the Yupingfeng Granules group were given 31.5 mg/(kg·d) and 1.575 g/(kg·d) of corresponding drugs respectively by gavage,and normal group and model group were given 10 ml/(kg·d) physiolo-gical saline. Sample was collected 24 hours after the last administration. The pathological changes of lung tissue were observed using HE staining; Ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time of flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC-QTOFMS) was used to detect the differential metabolites in alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) in all groups but roxithromycin group;16S rDNA sequencing technology was used to detect the changes of intestinal flora, and the association analysis was conducted between the differential metabolites and the differential flora. ResultsCompared with the normal group, the model group showed an increase in goblet cells in the small bronchial wall, disappearance of the smooth muscle layer of the bronchial wall, and infiltration of inflammatory cells; compared with the model group, roxithromycin group showed slight alveolar interstital edema, and obviously reduced inflammatory cell, while no obvious alveolar interstital edema was observed in the Yupingfeng Granules group, showing a small amout of inflammatory cell infiltration. The results of the BALF differential metabolite screening showed that compared with the normal group, 12 substances were upregulated and 19 substances were downregulated in the model group; compared with the model group, 37 substances in the Yupingfeng Granules group were upregulated and 43 substances were downregulated KEGG analysis yielded a total of 2 metabolic pathways, glycerophospholipid metabolism, and unsaturated fatty acid biosynthetic metabolism; compared with the model group, choline, acetylcholine, glycerol-3-phosphate, glycerophosphate choline, palmitic acid, and arachidonic acid showed an upward trend, while stearic acid and docosahexaenoic acid showed a downward trend in Yupingfeng Granules group (P<0.05). The results of the intestinal flora showed that, there are 80 different species between the normal group and the model group, and 65 different species between the model group and Yupingfeng Granules group. Among the top 5 species with relative abundance levels,compared with the model group, the level of Prevotella_9,Ruminococcaceae_UCG-005,Ruminiclostridium_6 increase,and Lactobacillus,Bacteroides decrease(P<0.05).The results of the correlation analysis showed that, in the normal and model groups, arachidonic acid was negatively correlated with Oribacterium(r=

【Objective:】 To explore the current situation and problems of village-level health human resource allocation based on the theory of policy change, and to help rural revitalization and healthy rural construction from the perspective of "consolidating the basic level foundation as fundamental policy". 【Methods:】 a) Information census method. A round-the-box survey on the distribution of health human resources at village-level in 14 rural towns and villages in H district was conducted. b) In-depth interview method. Based on the principle of information saturation, three township and villages clinics and community stations were selected for field observation, and in-depth personal interviews were conducted with key insiders. 【Results:】 The health policy environment changed significantly with the spatiotemporal changes. "Hollow village" and "inverted village" coexisted. The change of registered population and permanent resident population accelerated, old village doctors and new village doctors continued on the same hand, village clinics and community station were in "double track" of management progress. With the change of internal and external environment of the above-mentioned policies, the allocation of health human resources at village level needs to be studied urgently. 【Discussion:】 Under the dual function of external and internal environment, the policy change is inevitable. The health human resource distribution at village-level should be integrated with the system in terms of policy. The career development mechanism is connected up and down. Team construction revolves around suitable and applicable for batch training.
