Objective: To quantify the spatiotemporal factors and built environment effects on daily blood collection volumes at fixed sites using multi-source spatiotemporal data, explore the influence radii of different point of interest(POI) categories, and develop a classification framework for sites, thereby providing data references for efficiency diagnosis and network optimization of blood collection sites. Methods: We collected daily blood donation records from 16 fixed whole blood collection sites in Guangzhou in 2023, constructing a balanced “site-day” panel dataset (16 sites × 365 days = 5 840 observations). Multi-source geospatial data, including Amap POI, OpenStreetMap (OSM) road network, and meteorological data were integrated to establish 300 m, 500 m, 800 m, and 1 000 m buffer zones around each site. Variables extracted included counts of surrounding commercial facilities, distance to the nearest subway station, rainfall, and temperature. A two-way fixed effects panel model was employed with a first-order lag term of the dependent variable to capture the inertial effect of blood donation behavior. Based on the significant regression coefficients, a "Structure-Function Index (SFI)" was constructed for each site to identify its optimal buffer radius. Combining inherent site capacity (fixed effects) with the optimal SFI, a two-dimensional quadrant diagram was created to classify the sites. Results: The optimized model showed an adjusted R
of 0.89 and a Durbin-Watson statistic of 1.90, with the lag term coefficient stable at 0.36 (P<0.05). Temporal effects were significant: campaign days increased blood collection by 1 717.75 mL, holidays by 3 755.53 mL, and overlapping holidays with campaign days by 5 650.49 mL (P<0.05). Rainy days reduced collection by approximately 419 mL (P<0.05), and each 1℃ rise in daily average temperature decreased collection by approximately 31 mL (P<0.05). Distance to the nearest subway station was significantly positive (coefficient 0.95-1.39, P<0.05). POI effects showed scale-dependent differences: within 300 m, leisure and entertainment (+173.65 mL/unit) and shopping (+2.95 mL/unit) were significantly positive; within 500 m, tourist attractions (+72.55 mL/unit) and hotels (+40.09 mL/unit) were significantly positive; within 1 000 m, these effects diminished. Based on the two-dimensional classification of inherent collection capacity and optimal SFI, sites were categorized into four types: core, potential, adjustment, and resource-dependent. Conclusion: This study elucidates the multidimensional determinants of blood collection site efficiency, and provides quantitative evidence for performance diagnosis. It proposes a "concentric-zone planning" approach for site selection assessment alongside a" station-specific strategy" classification framework, offering data-driven references for network planning and resource allocation in blood collection and supply institutions. It should be noted that blood donation site selection also involves complex factors such as budgetary constraints, interdepartmental coordination, and venue conditions. This study provides a spatial econometric perspective for the quantitative optimization of blood collection networks.

Objective :
To investigate the causes of false negative results in the detection of Streptococcus agalactiae using fluorescent quantitative PCR(qPCR) targeting the CAMP factor gene(cfb),and to perform a comprehensive analysis of the associated molecular mechanisms.
Methods:
A total of 76 vaginal secretion samples were evaluated using both qPCR based on cfb gene and bacterial culture methods. Four suspicious strains exhibiting negative qPCR results but positive culture findings were identified using matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry(MALDI-TOF MS),latex agglutination antigen detection,and the CAMP test. Whole genome analysis was conducted utilizing the MGI DNBSEQ-T7 and Nanopore-PromethION 48 sequencing platforms. Phylogenetic and circular evolutionary trees were constructed using the 16S rRNA gene for strain verification. Multilocus sequence typing(MLST) was conducted,and cfb sequences were aligned and analyzed based on spliced sequences and original data. Specific primers targeting the cfb gene were designed for full-length amplification,followed by verification through agarose gel electrophoresis.
Results:
The four strains identified as suspicious were classified as S. agalactiae through MALDI-TOF MS,antigen detection,and 16S rRNA gene analysis,with MLST typing indicating ST-862. Phenotypic analysis revealed a negative CAMP test. Whole genome sequence alignment failed to detect the cfb gene or any homologous sequences,and molecular testing confirmed the absence of cfb gene PCR amplification products,thereby confirming its complete deletion.
Conclusion
This deletion is identified as the molecular mechanism responsible for the false negative qPCR detection of S. agalactiae when targeting this specific gene.It is recommended that the qPCR detection targeting a single cfb gene has limitation,and this may impact clinical diagnosis and treatment decisions. This limitation warrants carefulconsideration.

Objective:This study investigates the difference in the detection rate and symptomatology between ICD-10 and DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for bipolar disorder with mixed states.Methods:Based on the Phase Ⅰ (2012) and Phase Ⅱ (2021) databases of National Bipolar Mania Pathway Survey (BIPAS), patients with bipolar disorder were included. General demographic data, clinical characteristics, symptomatic phenotypes, and mixed characteristics were retrieved. The detection rates and symptomatic performances of patients with or without mixed states in Phase Ⅰ and Ⅱ were compared using the chi-square test.Results:For patients with mixed states, the detection rate during Phase Ⅱ (2021) using DSM-5 (18.79%, 199/1 059) criteria was significantly higher than that during Phase Ⅰ (2012) using ICD-10 (6.78%, 199/2 934; χ 2=125.05, P<0.001). Whether using ICD-10 or DSM-5 criteria, patients with mixed states had a significantly higher frequency of multiple symptomatic manifestations. Conclusion:The DSM-5 diagnostic criteria generate a high detection rate for bipolar disorder with mixed states. The clinical phenotypes of bipolar disorder with mixed states vary significantly using different diagnostic tools.
