Objective: To investigate the incidence of occult hepatitis B virus infection (OBI) in spouses of asymptomatic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infected individuals in Shenzhen, China, and to analyze their serological and molecular characteristics and possible transmission routes, so as to propose refined strategies for blood safety. Methods: After rapid screening for HBsAg at the blood collection sites, samples from HBsAg-positive blood donors and their concurrently donating spouses were collected. All samples were tested for hepatitis B serological markers by electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLI). Simultaneously, HBV nucleic acid extractiona, nested PCR amplification, gene sequencing of S and BCP/PC regions and qPCR were conducted. Results: A total of 112 samples were collected, including 56 from HBsAg positive donors and 56 from their spouses. All donors were confirmed as HBsAg+/DNA+/anti-HBc+, indicative of asymptomatic chronic hepatitis (CHB) infection. Among their 56 spouses, 11 (19.6%) were identified as HBV DNA+. The prevalence was higher in males (23.1%) than in females (16.7%). Six spouses (10.8%) had OBI, three of whom (5.4%) were negative in routine blood screening tests. The residual risk of HBV were estimated as 1∶127 (95%CI, 1∶356 to 1∶66). Among infected couples, immune escape mutation (E164D) and glycosylation mutations (I126T and T131N/M133T) were identified. Furthermore, sequence analysis suggested partner-to-partner transmission in eight cases. Conclusion: A substantial proportion (19.6%) of spouses of asymptomatic HBV infected donors were HBV-positve, with an OBI prevalence of 10.9%. Among these, 5.4% were negative in routine tests. To ensure blood safety, we recommend that spouses of HBV infected individuals be deferred from blood donation.

[Objective] To conduct a retrospective statistical comparison of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) test values in blood donors prior to blood collection, aiming to analyze the objective characteristics of the population with elevated ALT levels (ALT>50 U/L) and provide reference data for adjusting the screening eligibility threshold for ALT. [Methods] The preliminary ALT screening data of 30 341 blood donor samples collected prior to blood donation from three smart blood donation sites at the Shenzhen Blood Center between 2022 and 2023 were extracted and compared with data from a health examination department of a tertiary hospital in Shenzhen (representing the general population, n=24 906). Both datasets were categorized and statistically described. A retrospective analysis was conducted to examine the associations between ALT test results and factors such as donors' gender, age, ethnicity, donation site, donation season, and frequency of blood donation. [Results] The ALT levels in both blood donors and the general population were non-normally distributed. The 95th percentile of ALT values was calculated as 61.4 U/L (male: 67.8 U/L, female: 39.3 U/L) for blood donors and 58.1 U/L (male: 63.7 U/L, female: 51.2 U/L) for the general population. The non-compliance rates (ALT>50 U/L) were 7.65% (2 321/30 341) in blood donors and 7.08% (1 763/24 906) in the general population. There were significant differences (P<0.05) in the ALT failure rate among blood donors based on gender, age, and donation site, but no significant differences (P>0.05) during the blood donation season. There was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05) in the positive rates of four serological markers (HBsAg, anti HCV, HIV Ag/Ab, anti TP) for blood screening pathogens between ALT unqualified and qualified individuals (2.05% vs 1.5%). If the ALT qualification threshold was raised from 50 U/L to 90 U/L, the non qualification rates of male and female blood donors would decrease from 9.82% (2 074/21 125) to 2.23% (471/21 125) and from 2.70% (249/9 216) to 0.75% (69/9 216), respectively. Among the 154 blood donors who donated blood more than 3 times, 88.31% of the 248 ALT test results were in the range of 50-90 U/L. Among them, 9 cases had ALT>130 U/L, and ALT was converted to qualified in subsequent blood donations. [Conclusion] There are differences in the ALT failure rate among blood donors of different genders and ages, and different blood donation sites and operators can also affect the ALT detection values of blood donors. The vast majority of blood donors with ALT failure are caused by transient and non pathological factors. With the widespread use of blood virus nucleic acid testing, appropriately increasing the ALT qualification threshold for blood donors can expand the qualified population and alleviate the shortage of blood sources, and the risk of blood safety will not increase.

Objective To find out the prevalence of antiretroviral therapy(ART)drugs among treponema pallidum(TP)antibody(anti-TP)positive blood donors in Shenzhen,and to assess the blood safety risks brought about by the new trends of human immunodeficiency virus(HIV)diagnosis and treatment.Methods A stratified random sampling method was used to select 60 repeat blood donors(negative control group)who passed blood screening in Shenzhen from March 2019 to January 2023,and 3 people who regularly took known ART drugs were named positive control group,358 anti-TP positive/anti-HIV negative blood do-nors were named experimental group 1,20 anti-TP positive/anti-HIV positive blood donors were named ex-perimental group 2.The liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry(HPLC-MS/MS)was applied to detect the concentration of 8 ART drugs in plasma samples of each group,and the use of ART drugs was analyzed.Re-sults After the positive control group's plasma was diluted with a 1:6 dilution mixture,the ART drugs could still be detected.The positive mixed plasma samples of 1:6 people in Group 1 and Group 2 were split and validation,one ART drug positive sample was detected in Group 2,which was positive for anti-HIV,pro-tein immunoblotting,and HIV RNA.The detection rate of ART drugs in anti-TP positive blood donors was 0.26％,0.00％in Group 1 and 4.00％in Group 2.Conclusion The use of ART drugs has been found among anti-TP positive blood donors in Shenzhen,and people with HIV infection and high-risk sexual behavior are more likely to use antiretroviral drugs.

In recent years,with the frequent occurrence of disasters and the rapid development of the urban rescue system,aviation medical rescue can reach the scene of an accident in a short time because of the use of aircraft,with a wide coverage. Helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft can fly over obstacles and directly reach the disaster or accident area,reducing the rescue time;at the same time,because of its Equipped with relatively complete medical equipment,medical personnel can carry out emergency medical treatment on the aircraft,which improves the survival rate of patients;and aviation medical rescue has strong mobility,which can quickly adjust the rescue route and plan according to the specific situation,quickly transmit on-site information,and improve rescue efficiency. Therefore,air medical rescue has become a crucial part of modern medical rescue. In aviation medical rescue,the two most important components are medical staff and medical equipment. Among them,the professional literacy of aviation medical rescue by medical staff often directly determines the quality of aviation medical rescue received by patients. As the largest group of medical personnel,nurses play an important role in aviation medical rescue,expand the popularization of flight nurse training,do a good job in aviation medical rescue reserve,and play an important role in the quality of aviation medical rescue. Through virtual reality (VR) technology,the actual scene of aircraft and aviation medical rescue is simulated by computer,so that nurses can practice through the simulation of equipment and computer,and realistically feel the scenario of aviation medical rescue when a disaster occurs,which also ensures nurses' practical effect. The implementation of this training can not only greatly improve the number of flight nurse training,but also improve the quality of disaster rescue and aviation medical rescue in China. Therefore,the training of virtual reality technology aviation medical rescue nurses is crucial to the training of disaster rescue and aviation medical rescue personnel and the improvement of rescue quality.

【Objective】 To analyze the results of different methods for reactive samples screened by the enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in blood donors. 【Methods】 From March to April 2020, a total of 8 632 blood samples in Shenzhen were screened for SARS-CoV-2 total antibodies (TAb, including IgG, IgM, IgA) in plasma using ELISA(PC group), the antibody reactivity samples and their follow up plasma samples (FC group), and samples of disease control group(DC group) from January to April 2020 were detected using the following methods: 1) ELISA method for detecting IgG, IgM, and (or without detection) TAb; 2) pseudovirus neutralizing antibody test(pVNT); 3) western blot (WB) of SARS-CoV-2 antibody. The negative control group(NC group) from February to April 2020 performed ELISA and WB testing. 【Results】 Among the 34 total antibody positive samples, 2 were positive for pVNT test, and the total antibody, IgG and WB in the initial screening and tracking testing were positive. Thereafter, it was determined to be confirmed positive. The other 2 cases were positive for pVNT test, while the samples with positive WB results were in the follow-up stage. The TAb, IgG, and pVNT results did not conform to the dynamic evolution of antibodies, and cannot be determined as confirmed positive. 【Conclusion】 The infection status of antibody reactivity samples screened by SARS-CoV-2 ELISA can be judged by the logic of pVNT, WB and the dynamic change of antibody.

【Objective】 To analyze the SARS-CoV-2 detection results among blood donors in different periods of COVID-19 pandemic control in Shenzhen and assess the antibody levels and infection status of blood donors in different periods, so as to provide reference for subsequent blood testing strategies. 【Methods】 A total of 4 768 plasma samples of blood donors were subjected to pooled testing by nucleic acid testing(NAT) with 8 samples per pool. Additionally, these samples were subjected to a 1000-fold dilution, and the detection of SARS-CoV-2 total antibody was performed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The 4 768 plasma samples were collected from blood donors at different time points in Shenzhen, with inquiries made to determine whether donors during the COVID-19 pandemic were in the convalescence. The antibody positive rates in blood screening samples during different periods of the pandemic and samples from individuals in the convalescence of COVID-19 infection were analyzed. Furthermore, the antibody levels were examined for differences based on gender, age, and blood type. 【Results】 All 4 768 plasma samples from blood donors were negative by NAT, while 2 342 samples were detected positive by the SARS-CoV-2 total antibody detection, with a positive rate of 49.1%. These samples from four periods (September 30 to October 3, 2022; November 3 to 6, 2022; December 27 to 31, 2022; January 6 to 18, 2023) were subjected to a 1 000-fold dilution for COVID-19 antibody detection, and the positive rates were 21.3%, 15.8%, 65.9%, and 93.9%, respectively. 【Conclusion】 The prevalence of COVID-19 antibodies among blood donors in Shenzhen during different periods of the pandemic varied significantly. There was no difference in antibody prevalence among different genders and blood types, while younger individuals exhibited a higher prevalence of antibodies. The risk of COVID-19 transmission through blood transfusion was found to be extremely low.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical efficacy of Huanglian Jiedutang as an adjunctive treatment for acute cerebral infarction complicated with gastric motility disorder. MethodSixty patients with acute cerebral infarction complicated with gastric motility disorder with fire toxin syndrome were randomly divided into a western medicine control group （control group） and a traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） combined treatment group （observation group）， with 30 cases in each group. The control group received basic treatment for cerebral infarction and relevant western medical symptomatic treatment based on the patients' gastrointestinal symptoms. The observation group received Huanglian Jiedutang in addition to the treatment provided to the control group. The treatment course was 7 days. Neurological deficit scores and gastrointestinal dysfunction scores were assessed in both groups before treatment and on the 4^th and 7^th days of treatment. Gastrointestinal electrographic parameters， serum citrulline （CIT）， and motilin （MTL） levels were measured in both groups before treatment and on the 7^th day of treatment. Clinical efficacy was compared between the two groups. ResultCompared with the baseline in both groups， the neurological deficit scores and gastrointestinal dysfunction scores were significantly reduced on the 4th and 7^th days of treatment （P<0.05）. The reductions in these scores were more significant on the 7^th day compared with those on the 4^th day of treatment （P<0.05）. On the 4^th and 7^th days of treatment， the observation group showed a significantly greater reduction in neurological deficit scores and gastrointestinal dysfunction scores compared with the control group （P<0.05）. On the 7th day of treatment， compared with the baseline， both groups showed a significant increase in gastric antral and gastric body electric wave amplitudes as well as serum CIT and MTL levels （P<0.05）， and there were no statistically significant differences in the frequency of gastric antral and gastric body electric waves. On the 7th day of treatment， compared with the control group， the observation group had a significant increase in gastric antral and gastric body electric wave amplitudes as well as serum CIT and MTL levels （P<0.05）， and there were no statistically significant differences in the frequency of gastric antral and gastric body electric waves. After 7 days of treatment， the total effective rate in the observation group was 90.00% （27/30）， higher than 76.67% （23/30） in the control group， but the difference was not statistically significant. ConclusionAdjunctive treatment with Huanglian Jiedutang can effectively improve the symptoms of neurological function impairment and gastrointestinal dysfunction in patients with acute cerebral infarction complicated with gastric motility disorder， increase gastric antral and gastric body electric wave amplitudes， improve gastric motility disorder， and increase serum CIT and MTL levels， thereby improving the imbalanced secretion function of the gastrointestinal tract.
