AIM:To analyze the association between mobile phone addiction and high myopia among college students.METHODS:We conducted a cross-sectional questionnaire survey in December 2022 on all students of a university in Shaanxi Province, and the questionnaire included socio-demographic characteristics, mobile phone addiction, high myopia, and lifestyle. Binary Logistic regression model was used to analyze the association between mobile phone addiction and high myopia among college students.RESULTS:A total of 19 952 college students were included. The prevalence of high myopia was 7.31%. The rate of mobile phone addiction was 25.68%, and the mobile phone addiction score was 37.59±13.38. The incidence of high myopia among college students with mobile phone addiction was higher than non-mobile phone addiction(P<0.001). After adjusting for socio-demographic characteristics and lifestyle, the risk of high myopia among college students with mobile phone addiction was 1.274 times(95%CI:1.131-1.434)higher than non-mobile phone addiction. For each point increase of total mobile phone addiction score, withdrawal symptoms score, salience score, social comfort score, and mood changes score, the risk of high myopia among college students increased by 0.9%(95%CI:1.005-1.013), 2.0%(95%CI:1.010-1.030), 2.6%(95%CI:1.010-1.043), 4.8%(95%CI:1.030-1.066), and 3.3%(95%CI:1.014-1.052), respectively.CONCLUSION:Mobile phone addiction is significantly associated with the increased risk of high myopia among college students, and early intervention of mobile phone use may reduce the risk of high myopia among college students.

Objective: To investigate the distribution characteristics of previous infection of human parvovirus B19(HPV B19) among blood donors in Xi 'an, and to provide data support and theoretical basis for formulating individualized and precise blood screening strategies. Methods: A total of 970 qualified blood samples tested at Shaanxi Blood Center from August to September 2024 were randomly selected. The levels of HPV B19 IgG antibodies in the serum were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The distribution characteristics of the samples were analyzed from the perspectives of age, gender, education level, occupation, blood type and region. Results: The positive rate of HPV B19 IgG antibodies among blood donors in Xi 'an was 25.26%(245/970), which increased gradually with age (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the positive rate of HPV B19 IgG antibodies among blood donors of different genders, education levels, occupations, or blood types (P>0.05). Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that past HPV B19 infection was only related to age (P<0.05). The distribution of positive blood samples in 13 districts and counties of Xi 'an was counted based on the blood collection sites. The results showed that there was no significant global spatial autocorrelation in the distribution of positive samples. Among them, the Weiyang District and Beilin District exhibited a "high-high" cluster (P<0.05), while Chang'an District exhibited a "low-high" cluster (P<0.01). Conclusion: A certain proportion of blood donors in Xi'an showed past infection with HPV B19, which was only correlated with age and demonstrated an upward trend. It is recommended to continue expanding the screening scope and incorporate screening for this virus in blood transfusion processes involving susceptible populations.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of calcitriol on sepsis-induced immunosuppression and its potential mechanism. METHODS A sepsis-induced immunosuppression mice model was established using cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). The 7-day survival rate, serum levels of tumor necrosis factor- α (TNF- α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and IL-1β were determined in sham operation group, CLP group and calcitriol group (1 μg/kg); the morphological changes of lung tissue in mice were observed. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) tolerance macrophage models (representing sepsis-induced immunosuppression) were established using mice macrophage cell line RAW264.7 cells. The levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in cell supernatants as well as mRNA expressions of IL-1β, nucleotide-binding domain leucine-rich repeat and pyrin domain-containing receptor 3 (NLRP3), IL-18 and caspase-1 were assessed in culture medium group, LPS group, LPS tolerance group, and calcitriol (5 μmol/L) group. The following parameters were measured: propidium iodide (PI)-positive cell ratio, caspase-1 activity, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release, and Ca2+ levels. RESULTS Compared with CLP group, 7-day survival rate and serum levels of TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-1β were increased significantly in calcitriol group (P<0.05). Additionally, pulmonary tissue damage was markedly attenuated in calcitriol group. Compared with LPS tolerance group, the levels of TNF-α and IL-6 in cell supernatants, mRNA expressions of IL- 1β, NLRP3, IL-18 and caspase-1, PI-positive cell ratio, caspase-1 activity, LDH release, and Ca2+ levels were all increased significantly in calcitriol group (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS Calcitriol can reverse sepsis-induced immunosuppression, and the mechanism of action may be E-mail:yarfwy@163.com achieved by the binding of calcitriol to vitamin D receptor,which promotes the release of Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum, thereby driving the NLRP3/caspase-1-mediated pyroptosis pathway.
