Objective To analyze the distribution of platelet antibodies in hospitalized patients and explore the clinical significance of platelet antibody detection. Methods A total of 95 987 hospitalized patient cases from a tertiary hospital in Xi'an from April 1, 2021 to December 31, 2023 were collected. Platelet antibodies were detected by solid-phase agglutination method. Statistical analysis was performed on variables including gender, age, blood type, department, history of blood transfusion, pregnancy history, and disease type. Results Among 95 987 hospitalized patients, the positive rate of platelet antibody detection reached 4.35%. The positive rate of platelet antibodies in female hospitalized patients (5.29%) was higher than that in male patients (3.31%), and the difference was statistically significant (x2=224.124). The positive rate of platelet antibodies in those with pregnancy history (7.92%) was higher than that in those without pregnancy history (4.19%), and the difference was significant (x2=292.773). Similarly, the positive rate of platelet antibodies in those with transfusion history (7.79%) was higher than that in those without transfusion history (3.97%), and the difference was significant (x2=300.209). There was a significant correlation between the positive rate of platelet antibodies and the number of pregnancies (x2=91.061). Conclusion The positive rate of platelet antibodies in 95 987 inpatient cases was 4.35%. The positive rate of platelet antibodies had a close relationship with a history of blood transfusions and pregnancies, and it increased with the number of pregnancies. For patients with multiple transfusion histories and pregnancy histories, screening for platelet antibodies holds significant diagnostic value.

Obesity usually exacerbates the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (ITME), hindering CD8+ T cell infiltration and function, which further represents a significant barrier to the efficacy of immunotherapy. Herein, a multifunctional liposomal system (CR-Lip) for encapsulating celastrol (CEL) was utilized to remodel obesity-related ITME and improve cancer immunotherapy, wherein Ginsenoside Rg3 (Rg3) was detected interspersed in the phospholipid bilayer and its glycosyl exposed on the surface of the liposome. CR-Lip had a relatively uniform size (116.5 nm), facilitating favorable tumor tissue accumulation through the interaction between Rg3 and glucose transporter 1 overexpressed in obese tumor cells. Upon reaching the tumor region, CR-Lip was found to induce the immunogenic cell death (ICD) of HFD tumor cells. Notably, the level of PHD3 in HFD tumor cells was effectively boosted by CR-Lip to effectively block metabolic reprogramming and increase the availability of major free fatty acids fuel sources. In vivo, experiments studies revealed that the easy-obtained nano platform stimulated enhanced the production of various cytokines in tumor tissues, DC maturation, CD8+ T-cell infiltration, and synergistic anticancer therapeutic potency with aPD-1 (tumor inhibition rate = 82.1%) towards obesity-related melanoma. Consequently, this study presented an efficacious approach to tumor immunotherapy in obese mice by encompassing tumor eradication, inducing ICD, and reprogramming metabolism. Furthermore, it offered a unique insight into a valuable attempt at the immunotherapy of obesity-associated related tumors.

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.

Trauma-associated bone infection is one of the most serious infectious diseases after surgery, characterized by high incidence, complex pathogenic microorganisms, therapeutic difficulty and poor prognosis. Therefore, early accurate identification of pathogenic microorganisms and sensitivity of related antibiotics is very important to the success of surgery as well as of local and systemic antibiotic support therapies. As traditional detection methods have such shortcomings as complex items, numerous indicators, slow speed, a low positive rate, and inability to detect rare pathogenic microorganisms, there is an urgent need for better detection methods to identify pathogenic microorganisms of bone infection. In recent years, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and metagenomic next generation sequencing (mNGS) have been used in clinical diagnosis of a variety of infectious diseases because of their advantages in accuracy, speed, efficiency, and detection range of pathogenic microorganisms over traditional cultures. PCR and mNGS can also be used as effective tools to diagnose trauma-associated bone infection. This review explores the advantages, disadvantages, development trends and guiding significance of these two techniques in the diagnosis of trauma-associated bone infection.

Objective:To analyze the etiological and epidemiological characteristics of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in Xi′an from 2019 to 2021, so as to provide evidence for the prevention and control of HFMD.Methods:Stool specimens and anal swabs were collected from patients with HFMD. Enteroviruses (EVs) including enterovirus 71 (EV71), coxsackievirus A16 (CVA16), CVA6 and CVA10 were detected by RT-PCR. Excel 2007 and SPSS18.0 software were used for data collection and statistical analysis, respectively. The epidemiological data of HFMD cases were analyzed by descriptive epidemiology method. The VP1 gene sequence of the representative strain of each CVA6 genotype was downloaded. Phylogenetic trees were constructed using MEGA X software and the genetic characteristics were analyzed.Results:A total of 1 531 HFMD cases were involved and 1 365 were positive for EVs with a positive rate of 89.16%. The detection rates of EV71, CVA16, CVA6, CVA10 and other EVs were 1.31% (20/1 531), 32.46% (497/1 531), 38.47% (589/1 531), 5.09% (78/1 531) and 11.23% (172/1 531), respectively. There were significant differences in the pathogen composition in HFMD cases of different clinical types (χ 2=46.14, P<0.01) and occupations (χ 2=34.65, P<0.01) as well as in different years (χ 2=462.86, P<0.01). The average age was greater in patients with CVA16 infection than in those with CVA6 or CVA10 infection ( F=6.00, P<0.01). In 2019, the HFMD cases were mainly caused by CVA16, while in 2020 and 2021, the main pathogen was CVA6. Enterovirus-positive cases showed a bimodal distribution with the main peak from May to July and the secondary peak from September to November. CVA16 was the predominant pathogen in spring and summer, and CVA6 was the predominant pathogen in autumn. CVA6 was the dominant pathogen in eight districts and counties of Xi′an; CVA16 was the dominant pathogen in six districts and counties; CVA6 and CVA16 co-circulated in one district. The CVA6 isolates belonged to two evolutionary branches of D3a subtype. Conclusions:CVA6 and CVA16 were the prevalent pathogens of HFMD and CVA6 subtype D3a circulated in Xi′an from 2019 to 2021. The pathogen composition of HFMD cases showed obvious differences in population, time and regional distribution.
