Objective: Blood safety surveillance is a critical measure for the objective assessment of blood quality and enhancing transfusion safety. This study aims to comprehensively understand the current status of blood safety surveillance and management in blood collection and supply institutions in Sichuan Province, systematically analyze existing problems and vulnerabilities, and provide a basis for optimizing management strategies and improving capabilities to ensure blood safety. Methods: The Blood Safety Surveillance questionnaire was designed, covering adverse donor reaction reporting, management of adverse events, and transfusion adverse reaction feedback. An online survey was conducted via Questionnaire Star platform among 21 blood collection and supply institutions in the province, gathering information on management systems, process implementation, and utilization of monitoring data. The collected data were organized and statistically analyzed using Excel. Results: The questionnaire response rate and validity rate were both 100%. Blood collection and supply institutions in Sichuan Province have generally established a blood safety surveillance system and achieved positive outcomes. Regarding adverse events in blood collection and supply, 95.24% (20 institutions) have established reporting procedures, and 66.67% (14) collect information through multiple channels such as internal reports, external reports, and statistical trend feedback. A total of 90.48% (19) institutions regularly summarize and analyze adverse event data, and 85.71% (18) produce reports with improvement recommendations based on this analysis.71.43% (15) institutions implement reward and penalty measures, and 71.43% (15) report underreporting or omission due to accountability or performance concerns. In terms of monitoring adverse blood donation reactions, all blood collection and supply institutions have established full-process management systems.76.19% (16) collect data through multiple approaches, including on-site donation records, voluntary donor reports, and donor follow-ups. Adverse reactions were followed up in 95.24% (20) of institutions with 65% (13) completing follow-ups within 24 hours.80.95% (17) have established investigation procedures, while 66.67% (14) believe underreporting or omission still occurs. All blood collection and supply institutions regularly compile statistics on adverse donation reactions. Of these, 85.71% (18) institutions providing feedback to management departments and 90.48% (19) analyzing the data and making recommendations.76.19% (16) institutions use monitoring data for return donor management and targeted care, and 71.43% (15 stations) incorporate it into management reviews. Regarding adverse transfusion reactions, 95.24% (20) institutions have established and implemented procedures for isolating, recalling, and tracing of problematic blood units. However, only 42.86% (9) have established feedback mechanisms of adverse transfusion reaction with hospitals, and only 19.05% (4) support direct reporting via information systems.47.62% (10) institutions regularly analyze adverse transfusion reaction data, and 19.05% (4) provide feedback and recommendations to relevant hospitals. All blood collection and supply institutions reported challenges in collecting hospital feedback, citing complexities in data collection and reporting processes. Conclusion: Blood safety surveillance systems have been preliminarily established in Sichuan Province. However, further strengthening is still required, including conducting in-depth data analysis and utilization, standardizing the configuration of emergency medications and equipment, and improving feedback mechanisms for adverse transfusion reactions. To improve the overall level of blood safety management, it is recommended to strengthen closed-loop data management, improve feedback mechanisms between blood collection and supply institutions and hospitals, foster a non-punitive reporting culture, and systematically advance the regionalization and standardization of the monitoring system. These efforts will contribute to sustainably improving the overall effectiveness and sustainability of blood safety management.

Objective:
To examine the changing trajectories of sleep problems and teacher support among first year middle school students and their covariant relationship,so as to provide theoretical basis for the prevention strategy of sleep problems for the first year junior high school students.
Methods:
In September 2020, a multistage cluster random sampling method was used to select 1 027 first year junior high school students from two schools of Anshun and Guiyang cities in Guizhou Province for survey and follow up assessments (T1:September 2020, T2:October 2020, T3:November 2020, T4:December 2020). The Student Perceived Teacher Support Behavior Questionnaire and Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index Scale were administered to assess sleep problems and teacher support among first year junior high school students. Spearman correlation analysis was used to examine the relationship between sleep problems and teacher support. A multivariate latent growth curve model was employed to analyze the changing trajectories and covariant relationship between teacher support and sleep problems, followed by a multi group analysis.
Results:
For first year junior high school students, teacher support scores at T1-T4 were 4.00 (3.47, 4.53), 4.00 (3.47, 4.58), 3.95 (3.47, 4.61) and 4.00 (3.48, 4.67), respectively; sleep problem scores were 0.83 (0.50, 1.17), 0.67 (0.50, 1.17), 0.83 (0.50, 1.17) and 0.67 (0.33, 1.17), respectively. Spearman correlation analysis revealed that teacher support and sleep problems were negatively correlated across all four period ( r =-0.28 to -0.14, all P <0.01). Teacher support perceived by students showed a linear increasing trend (intercept=3.98, slope=0.02), while sleep problems showed a linear decreasing trend (intercept=0.86, slope= -0.02 ) (all P <0.05). The multivariate latent growth model indicated that the rate of increase in teacher support after enrollment effectively predicted the rate of decrease in sleep problem levels ( β=-0.34, P <0.01). Multigroup analysis showed that the covariant relationship was not moderated by gender or boarding status (both P >0.05).
Conclusions
The increase in teacher support experienced by first year junior high school students during the transition period after enrollment, accompanied by a reduction in sleep problems, constitutes a dynamic protective process. The process is not moderated by gender or boarding status.

Work serves as a critical means of obtaining resources, facilitating personal growth, realizing self-worth, and engaging in social interactions. However, work-related diseases pose significant threats to workers’ health and productivity, and impose considerable economic burdens. This article categorized work-related diseases into six major types, including musculoskeletal disorders, mental and behavioral disorders, cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, digestive system diseases, reproductive system diseases, and non-specific respiratory diseases, and summarized their risk factors, assessment methods, policy regulation, and prevention and control measures. Current research in this field predominantly relies on cross-sectional studies, which present limitations in causal inference and potential risks of bias. Future studies should expand sample sizes, optimize research designs, and establish multidimensional evaluation systems to comprehensively assess the health and economic impacts of work-related diseases. It is recommended to enhance the translation of research findings into practice, thereby providing a scientific basis for the occupational health protection system and promoting the well-being and sustainable development of the working population.

Objective:To investigate the influencing factors for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) after laparoscopic Heller-Dor surgery for esophageal achalasia.Methods:The retrospective case-control study was conducted. The clinical data of 210 patients with esophageal achalasia who were admitted to Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital from January 2021 to December 2023 were collected. There were 119 males and 91 females, aged (47±12)years. All patients underwent laparoscopic Heller-Dor surgery. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) follow-up; (3) influencing factors for GERD after laparoscopic Heller-Dor surgery; (4) development and evaluation of a predictive model for GERD after laparoscopic Heller-Dor surgery. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed using stepwise Logistic regression. Results of multivariate analysis were used to construct a nomogram in predicting GERD. The predictive performance was assessed using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve. The calibration curve was used to evaluate the accuracy of the model, and the decision curve was used to assess the overall net benefit of the model.Results:(1) Surgical situations. All 210 patients underwent laparoscopic Heller-Dor surgery. The operation time was (128±31)minutes, volume of intraoperative blood loss was (25±9)mL, and length of lower esophageal sphincter (LES) myotomy was (5±3)cm. The length of low esophageal myotomy >6 cm was performed in 49 patients, and length of gastric fundus myotomy >2 cm was performed in 58 patients. Intraoperative mucosal perforation occurred to 3 patients and was repaired intraoperatively. One patient required conversion to open surgery. Postoperative complications occurred in 18 patients. The duration of postoperative hospital stay was (4.3±2.4)days. (2) Follow-up. All 210 patients were followed up for 4(range,7-33)months after surgery. During follow-up, 32 pati-ents had GERD, including 17 cases presenting dysphagia and 25 cases presenting acid regurgitation and heartburn (the same patient may have two symptoms). There were 29 cases with body mass index (BMI) >28 kg/m2. Symptom severity scores of 210 patients showed heartburn of 0.6(range, 0-3.0), reflux of 0.7(range, 0-3.0), chest pain of 0.4(range, 0-2.0), cough and hoarseness of 0.5(range, 0-2.0), nausea and vomiting 0.3(range, 0-2.0), dysphagia 0.8(range, 0-3.0). The LES pressure was (15±8)mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), LES relaxation rate was 81%±13.0%, and integrated relaxation pressure was (9±6)mmHg. Esophageal manometry classification showed type Ⅰ, Ⅱ, and Ⅲ in 0, 8, and 0 patients, respectively. There were 208 patients achieved symptom relief after drug or symptomatic treatment. Only two patients with severe symptoms were unresponsive to medication and subsequently underwent surgery at another hospital, with symptoms improving postoperatively. (3) Influen-cing factors for GERD after laparoscopic Heller-Dor surgery. Results of multivariate analysis showed that male, smoking history, length of lower esophageal myotomy >6 cm, and postoperative BMI >28 kg/m2 were independent risk factors for GERD after laparoscopic Heller-Dor surgery ( odds ratio=4.02, 6.34, 5.41, 7.38, 95% confidence interval as 1.50-10.78, 3.31-12.31, 1.77-13.47, 2.80-15.42, P<0.05). (4) Development and evaluation of a predictive model for GERD after laparoscopic Heller-Dor surgery. A predictive nomogram model for GERD was constructed based on the results of multivariate analysis. The receiver operating characteristic curve of predictive nomogram model for GERD had an area under curve of 0.91 (95% confidence interval as 0.82-0.97), demonstrating good discrimination. The calibration curve showed good agreement between predicted and observed probabilities, with a mean absolute error of 0.033. The decision curve demonstrated that within a threshold probability range of 0.2-0.8, the predictive model had greater net benefit than "treat-all" or "treat-none" strategies, indicating clinical utility of this model in clinical decision. Conclusions:Male, smoking history, length of lower esophageal myotomy >6 cm, and postoperative BMI >28 kg/m2 are independent risk factors for GERD after laparoscopic Heller-Dor surgery for esophageal achalasia. The predictive model for GERD after laparoscopic Heller-Dor surgery based on these factors shows strong predictive accuracy.
