Objective: To analyze characteristics of iron-deficient blood donors, implement targeted interventions, and evaluate their effectiveness, thereby providing a reference for formulating blood donor recruitment and care strategies. Methods: Based on serum ferritin (SF) test results, the apheresis platelet donors were divided into the low SF group (n=90; 45 males and 45 females) and the normal SF group (n=651; 510 males and 141 females). The results of related indicators of the two groups were compared and analyzed. Interventions for the low SF group included extending the blood donation interval to at least 45 days (group A) and oral iron supplementation combined with the extended donation interval implemented in group A (group B). Pre-intervention and post-intervention SF results were compared. Results: For both male and female donors, serum iron levels were significantly lower in the low SF group than those of the normal SF group, while the levels of transferrin, unsaturated iron binding capacity (UIBC) and total iron binding capacity (TIBC) were higher in the low SF group compared to the normal SF group. Some indicators related to red blood cells showed changes, with more evident alterations in females than in males. Twenty-eight donors in group A and 39 donors in group B completed the study after intervention. SF value in group A was (18.32±8.09) μg/L at baseline and (26.21±17.30) μg/L after intervention. Similarly, SF value in group B was (15.87±7.69) μg/L at baseline and (26.24±15.55) μg/L after intervention. In both groups, SF values after intervention were significantly higher than baseline values. However, the magnitude of change did not significantly differ between groups A and B. Conclusion: Other related indicators in blood donors with low ferritin have also experienced some changes, suggesting that some blood donors may have entered the stage of iron-deficient erythropoiesis. Extending blood donation interval facilitates the recovery of iron storage in low-ferritin apheresis platelet donors. Blood stations should develop care strategies for apheresis platelet donors, including, at a minimum, the prolonged blood donation interval for donors with low ferritin.

Objective To explore the intervention effect of grading activities on postoperative delirium in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty(THA).Methods A total of 100 patients who underwent THA at the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from January 2024 to January 2025 were selected as subjects.Using a randomized digital table method,patients were divided into intervention group(n=50)and control group(n=50).The control group received standard postoperative care,while intervention group began implementing grading activities program immediately upon returning to the ward.Delirium incidence,Harris hip function scale(HHS)score,Pittsburgh sleep quality index,average length of hospital stay,average hospitalization costs,and patient satisfaction were compared between two groups.Results Postoperative delirium in intervention group was significantly lower than that in control group(P＜0.05).There were statistically significant differences in HHS,pain scores,and joint function scores between two groups.Sleep quality and higher satisfaction rates were better in intervention group than those in control group,while average hospital stays and total hospitalization costs were lower in intervention group than those in control group with statistically significant(P＜0.05).Conclusion Early grading activities can prevent the occurrence of postoperative delirium in patients with THA,reduce postoperative pain,improve joint function and sleep quality,and effectively improve patient satisfaction.

Objective:To construct an artificial intelligence (AI)-based automatic grading model for neurological severity at acute phase of patients with traumatic cervical spinal cord injury (TCSCI) and evaluate its efficacy.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 315 patients with TCSCI admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Naval Medical University from January 2019 to December 2023, including 243 males and 72 females, aged 30-75 years [(57.6±7.0)years]. Injured segments involved C 1-C 4 in 143 patients and C 5-C 8 in 172. According to the American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) scale, the injuries were classified as Grade A in 15 patients, Grade B in 53, Grade C in 74, and Grade D in 173. The patients were randomly divided into training group ( n=252) and test group ( n=63) with a ratio of 8∶2. The patients′ sensory and motor functions were assessed according to the ASIA scale within 48 hours after injury. The cervical spine MRI instance segmentation model was used to extract injury severity features of TCSCI patients in sagittal T2-weighted images. The grading model consisted of a two-layer cascade network. The first layer involved gradient boosting, Gaussian naive bayes, K-nearest neighbors, decision tree, random forest and support vector machine classifier. In the training group, the 6 machine learning models were trained separately. In the second layer, the performance of the six models was optimized to obtain the corresponding optimal grading models, so as to match the models with the best grading performance for each feature. In the test group, the performance of each model was evaluated by calculating accuracy, recall, precision, average precision, and F1 score. Results:A total of 138 clinical and imaging features were included to construct an automatic grading model for neurological severity of TCSCI patients at acute phase, comprising 132 clinical neurological features (including 56 light touch sensory scores, 56 pinprick sensory scores, and 20 key muscle scores) and 6 MRI imaging features. In the test group, the accuracy, recall, precision, average precision and F1 score of the six models, including gradient boosting, Gaussian naive bayes, K-nearest neighbors, decision tree, random forest and support vector machine classifier in the first layer of the automatic grading model for neurological severity at acute phase of TCSCI patients, in the overall grading of light touch, pinprick sensory and key muscle motor function were all above 0.86. In terms of the overall light touch function grading performance, the models with the highest accuracy, recall, precision, average precision, and F1 score were K-nearest neighbors (0.90), gradient boosting (0.99), Gaussian naive bayes (0.98), random forest (0.96), and gradient boosting (0.96), respectively. In terms of the overall pinprick sensory function grading performance, the models with the highest accuracy, recall, precision, average precision, and F1 score were gradient boosting (0.98), Gaussian naive bayes (0.98), gradient boosting (0.99), decision tree (0.99), and gradient boosting (0.95), respectively. In terms of the overall key muscle motor function grading performance, the models with the highest accuracy, recall, precision, average precision, and F1 score were K-nearest neighbors (0.97), gradient boosting and support vector machine classifier (0.97), decision tree (0.95), random forest (0.95), and support vector machine classifier (0.96), respectively. In terms of sensory function, gradient boosting had the highest number of superior performances in the overall light touch and pinprick sensory function grading. In terms of motor function, the support vector machine classifier had the highest number of superior performances in the overall key muscle motor function grading.Conclusion:The automatic grading model for neurological severity at acute phase of patients with TCSCI that is constructed based on machine learning models and two-layer cascade networks can achieve the optimization of the grading performance of each feature and exhibit a strong grading ability for the sensory and motor function severity.

Thoracolumbar spine fracture often leads to severe pain, functional impairments, and neurological deficits, for which open reduction and internal fixation can effectively restore the spinal structural stability. Open decompression and reduction with internal fixation can help relieve spinal cord compression and improve spinal function in cases of concomitant cord injury. Although spinal stability can be restored through surgery, patients often face chronic pain and functional impairments postoperatively. A postoperative rehabilitation program is critical in optimizing therapeutic outcomes, reducing complications, and minimizing the risk of secondary injuries. However, current rehabilitation methods, such as physical therapy, functional training, and pain management, are confronted with problems in clinical practice, including significant variation in efficacy, poor patient adherence, and prolonged rehabilitation period. There is an urgent need for a unified rehabilitation strategy to address these problems. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of the Orthopedic Physicians Branch of the Chinese Medical Association and the Spine Health Professional Committee of the Chinese Human Health Technology Promotion Association organized experts from relevant fields to formulate Evidence-based guidelines for rehabilitation treatment after internal fixation of thoracolumbar spine fracture in adults ( version 2025) by integrating evidences from clinical researches and advanced rehabilitation concepts at home and abroad. A total number of 14 recommendations concerning the rehabilitation treatment with multimodal analgesia, psychological intervention, deep vein thrombosis prevention, core muscle and extremity exercise, appropriate use of braces, early weight-bearing, device-aided rehabilitation exercise, neuroregulatory therapy, rehabilitation team were put forward, aiming to standardize the post-operative rehabilitation process following internal fixation, promote the functional recovery, and enhance patients′ quality of life.

Acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fracture (ASOTLF) can lead to chronic low back pain, kyphosis deformity, pulmonary dysfunction, loss of mobility, and even life-threatening complications. Vertebral augmentation is currently the mainstream treatment method for this condition. In 2019, the Editorial Board of Chinese Journal of Trauma and the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedic Surgeons Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association collaboratively led the development of Clinical guideline for vertebral augmentation for acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures. Six years later, with advances in clinical diagnosis and treatment techniques as well as accumulating evidence in related fields, the 2019 guideline requires updating. To this end, the Spinal Trauma Group of Orthopedic Surgeons Branch of Chinese Medical Doctor Association, the Spinal Health Professional Committee of China Human Health Science and Technology Promotion Association, and the Minimally Invasive Orthopedics Professional Committee of Shaanxi Medical Doctor Association have organized experts in the field to develop the Clinical guideline for vertebral augmentation of acute symptomatic osteoporotic thoracolumbar compression fractures ( version 2025) , based on the latest evidence-based medical researches. This guideline incorporates 3 recommendations retained from the 2019 version with updated strength of evidence, along with 12 new recommendations. It provides recommendations from six aspects of diagnosis, pain management, treatment option selection, prevention of postoperative complications, anti-osteoporosis therapy, and postoperative rehabilitation, aiming to provide a reference for standard treatment of vertebral augmentation for ASOTLF in hospitals at all levels.

Objective:To understand the burden of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and its risk factors in Fujian Province during 1990-2019.Methods:Based on the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019, the incidence rate, mortality rate and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) of CKD in Fujian from 1990 to 2019 were calculated. An age-period-cohort model was used to estimate the effects of age, period, and cohort on age-standardized incidence rate (ASIR), age-standardized mortality rate (ASMR), and age-standardized DALY rate (ASDR) of CKD. Comparative risk assessment theory was used to calculate the potential attributable DALYs due to risk factors.Results:In 2019, the ASIR of CKD in Fujian exceeded the national average. The ASIR of CKD showed an increasing trend from 1990 to 2019, but the ASMR and ASDR of CKD exhibited decreasing trends during the same period. In 2019, the ASIR of CKD was higher in women than in men, while the ASMR and ASDR were higher in men than in women. Age-period-cohort analysis indicated that ASIR, ASMR, and ASDR of CKD increased with age. The period effect for ASIR decreased first before increase, while the period effect for ASMR and ASDR displayed fluctuating trends. The cohort effect showed an upward trajectory for ASIR, but a stable status before downward trajectories for ASMR and ASDR. Compared with 1990, except the increase in the ASDR of CKD attributed to high BMI and high temperatures, the ASDR of CKD attributed to other risk factors all showed decreases in 2019. However, the ASDR attributed to high sodium intake remained higher compared with the global average.Conclusion:The burden of CKD remains heavy in Fujian, and it is necessary to reduce the attributable risk factors, such as high sodium intake and high BMI, to address this problem.

The menopausal age is one of the important menopausal factors, and women of different menopausal ages have different risks of diabetes. This study reviewed the evidence from prospective studies on the association between the age at natural menopause and diabetes risk, both domestically and internationally, and presented its research design and main findings. Advanced menopause, especially premature and early menopause, will increase the risk of diabetes in postmenopausal women. The research on the influence of delayed menopause on the incidence of diabetes is still insufficient. Many factors may modify the association between menopausal age and the risk of diabetes.

Objective To analyze the imaging features of cerebral small vessel disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus by multimodal MRI.Methods The clinical data of 160 patients with cerebral small vessel disease admitted to our hospital from January to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.According to whether they were complicated with type 2 diabetes mellitus,they were divided into the diabetic group and the non-diabetic group,with 80 cases in each group.Both groups underwent multimodal MRI scans.And the severity of lacunar infarction,the severity of subcortical and periventricular white matter lesions,white matter integral and cerebral microbleeds of patients in the two groups were compared.Results The severity of lacunar infarction(χ2=34.076,P=0.001),subcortical white matter lesions(χ2=25.000,P=0.001),periventricular white matter lesions(χ2=22.895,P=0.001)and white matter integral(t=12.370,P=0.001)of patients in the diabetic group were significantly higher than those in the non-diabetic group.No cerebral microbleeds were detected in either group of patients.Conclusion Patients with cerebral small vessel disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus show characteristic multimodal MRI changes.The increase in the number of lacunar infarction lesions and the aggravation of white matter lesions can be used as the characteristic imaging basis for the diagnosis of type 2 diabetes mellitus related cerebral small vessel disease.
