Objective: To validate the performance of the Procleix UltrioPlex E assay (Grifols, Spain) on the Procleix Panther automated nucleic acid detection platform, which employs the TMA method to simultaneously detect HIV-1/HIV-2/HCV/HBV/HEV viruses, and to evaluate its value for screening transfusion-associated infectious diseases. Methods: In accordance with the requirements of ISO15189"Application of the Guidelines for the Accreditation of Quality and Capabilities of Medical Laboratories in the Field of Molecular Diagnostics (CNAS-CL02-A009: 2018)", "Guidelines for Performance Validation of Molecular Diagnostic Testing Procedures (CNAS-GL039: 2019)", and the "Technical Operating Procedures for Blood Banks (2019 Edition)", this study validated the reagent's performance in terms of analytical sensitivity validation, performance consistency validation, interference resistance, and cross-contamination resistance. Results: Probit analysis revealed that the 95% detection limits (95% confidence interval) for HBV, HCV, HIV, and HEV were 2.0 IU/mL, 1.5 IU/mL, 18.0 IU/mL and 3.7 IU/mL, respectively, which were consistent with the minimum detection limits stated in the kit's package insert and were comparable to the Procleix Ultrio Elite kit. Both kits were used to test the performance validation serum plate simultaneously, yielding results consistent with the serum plate (Kappa=1), indicating stable performance. Detection of medium-and low-concentration lipemia and weakly positive hemolysis samples demonstrated good interference resistance. Cross-contamination performance validation showed that the kit exhibited excellent cross-contamination resistance. Conclusion: The Procleix UltrioPlex E nucleic acid detection kit enables combined detection of HIV-1, HIV-2, HCV, HBV, and HEV, allowing single-test screening for multiple viruses in donor blood. The kit's analytical performance is stable and meets basic laboratory requirements, making it suitable for screening transfusion-associated infectious diseases in blood banks.

Objective:To explore the risk factors of adverse events during the perioperative period of transurethral resection of bladder tumor(TURBT)in bladder cancer patients with coronary atherosclerotic heart disease(CAD).Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of bladder cancer patients who underwent TURBT in Beijing Anzhen Hospital from June 2022 to September 2024.All patients with bladder cancer and CAD underwent coronary computed tomography angiography(CCTA)for diagnosis and assessment of CAD before surgery.Based on the CCTA results,the patients with bladder cancer and CAD were divided into two groups:those with mild to moderate coronary stenosis and those with severe coronary stenosis.The severe coronary stenosis group was further divided into two subgroups based on whether they received low-molecular-weight heparin(LMWH)bridging therapy or continued their anti-platelet treatment before surgery.Perioperative anticoagulation and antiplatelet strategies were adjusted according to the opinions of the specialists.The incidence of adverse events within 30 days postoperative-ly was followed up and analyzed.Results:A total of 80 bladder cancer patients with CAD who underwent TURBT were included in the study.Among the 80 patients with CAD,55(68.8％)had mild to moder-ate coronary stenosis,and 25(31.2％)had severe coronary stenosis.Compared with those had mild to moderate coronary stenosis,the patients who had severe coronary stenosis had a higher incidence of post-operative bleeding and pulmonary embolism,although the differences were not statistically significant(P＞0.05).However,the incidence of postoperative myocardial infarction was significantly higher in the patients who had severe coronary stenosis(P=0.034).Among the patients with severe coronary stenosis,8(32.0％)received LMWH bridging therapy before TURBT,and 17(68.0％)continued their previous antiplatelet treatment.Compared with those who continued antiplatelet treatment,the patients who re-ceived LMWH bridging therapy had a higher incidence of postoperative bleeding and pulmonary embo-lism,although the differences were not statistically significant(P＞0.05).However,the incidence of postoperative myocardial infarction was significantly higher in the LMWH bridging group(P=0.032).Conclusion:Patients with mild-to-moderate coronary stenosis demonstrate relatively low perioperative risk during TURBT procedures and may safely undergo TURBT following antiplatelet therapy discontinuation.Conversely,those with severe coronary stenosis exhibit significantly higher perioperative risk and require intensive monitoring.In bladder cancer patients with concomitant severe coronary stenosis,perioperative LMWH bridging therapy is associated with increased myocardial infarction risk,whereas continued anti-platelet therapy does not elevate postoperative bleeding risk.Current evidence therefore supports maintai-ning antiplatelet therapy in these patients,with appropriate bleeding risk assessment.

Objective To observe the effects of tactile/motor stimulation massage on feeding outcomes and neuromotor development levels of preterm infants.Methods A total of 136 preterm hospitalized infants in the neonatal intensive care unit of a tertiary hospital in Yunnan Province from January 2024 to July 2024 were enrolled and randomly assigned to a control group and an experimental group,with 68 cases in each group.The control group received the routine care for preterm infants,while the experimental group received tactile/motor stimulation massage as an intervention in addition to the routine care.The time taken from gavage to oral feeding(d),the rate of complete oral feeding(%),the incidence of feeding intolerance(%),the weight(g),the length(cm),the head circumference(cm),neonatal behavioral neurometric score(NBNA)and Psychomotor development index(PDI)were compared between the two groups.Results The time from gavage to oral feeding in the experimental group(12.73±1.86)days was significantly shorter than that in the control group(13.66±1.68)days,and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);the rate of complete oral feeding in the experimental group(89.7%)was significantly higher than that in the control group(70.6%),P<0.05,and the incidence of feeding intolerance in the experimental group(8.8%)was significantly lower than that in the control group(16.2%),P<0.05;The experimental group showed superior results in weight,length,and head circumference compared to the control group(P<0.05);The neonatal behavioral neurometry score of the experimental group(36.16±1.53)was significantly higher than that of the control group(35.10±2.66),P<0.05,and the motor development index in the experimental group(76.88±6.12)was significantly higher than that in the control group(74.34±5.07),P<0.05.Conclusion Tactile/motor stimulation massage can effectively improve the feeding status and promote the neuromotor development of preterm infants.

In recent years, it has been common for heart disease patients to undergo urological surgery.The requirements for specialized doctors to accurately assess the risk of perioperative heart disease thrombosis are also increasing. In order to conduct multi-disciplinary disease analysis and discussion in a more standardized profile and promote clinical work progress in a safer manner, this article provides a systematic review and summary of the basic characteristics of antithrombotic drugs, the bleeding risks of urological surgery, the risk identification standards for arteriovenous thrombosis, as well as the withdrawal conditions, bridging selection, and restart treatment of perioperative antithrombotic drugs, based on the constantly updated clinical researches and guideline consensuses in recent years.

Cognitive impairment is one of the three primary symptoms of schizophrenic patients and shows important value in early detection and warning for high-risk individuals. To study the specifics of electroencephalogram (EEG) in patients with schizophrenia under the cognitive load, we collected EEG signals from 17 schizophrenic patients and 19 healthy controls, extracted signals of each band based on wavelet transform, calculated the characteristics of nonlinear dynamic and functional brain networks, and automatically classified the two groups of people by using a machine learning algorithm. Experimental results indicated that the correlation dimension and sample entropy showed significant differences in α, β, θ, and γ rhythm of the Fp1 and Fp2 electrodes between groups under the cognitive load. These results implied that the functional disruptions in the frontal lobe might be the important factors of cognitive impairments in schizophrenic patients. Further results of the automatic classification analysis indicated that the combination of nonlinear dynamics and functional brain network properties as the input characteristics of the classifier showed the best performance, with the accuracy of 76.77%, sensitivity of 72.09%, and specificity of 80.36%. The results of this study demonstrated that the combination of nonlinear dynamics and function brain network properties may be potential biomarkers for early screening and auxiliary diagnosis of schizophrenia.

The micro-elimination strategy is an effective approach to rapidly reduce the incidence and mortality of specific populations infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV). This article combines the current status of hepatitis C prevention and treatment in Guizhou Province, and introduces the current domestic and foreign hepatitis C micro-elimination models. It is worth mentioning that the Guizhou Provincial Medical Quality Control Center for Infectious Diseases jointly formulated the "Guizhou Province Chronic Hepatitis C Health Education Standards" to improve the awareness of health care workers and patients about the disease, increase the screening rate, and increase the patients willingness to receive treatment and accomplish the World Health Organization’s goal of eliminating hepatitis C threat by 2030.

Objective: To investigate the incidence and clinical characteristics of left atrial appendage (LAA) thrombus in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and non-valvular atrial fibrillation (AF) . Methods: Data from 10 440 patients with AF who had undergone transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) before cardioversion or catheter ablation at Beijing Anzhen Hospital from April 2006 to December 2018 were retrospectively screened. Two hundred and five HCM patients were included, 820 AF patients with the same CHA₂DS₂-VASc score over the same period were selected as the control group. HCM patients were divided into two subgroups based on presence or absence of LAA thrombus/sludge. The baseline of clinical information, transthoracic echocardiographic and TEE measures were compared among all the groups. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic value of left atrial diameter (LAD) for LAA thrombus/sludge. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was applied to analyze the correlative factors of LAA thrombus/sludge in HCM patients. Results: The incidences of LAA thrombus or sludge were higher in HCM group than in control group (10.7% (22/205) vs. 0.7% (6/820); 8.8% (18/205) vs.7.0% (57/820), P<0.001) . In HCM patients, LAD was significantly larger in LAA thrombus/sludge subjects than in those without thrombus/sludge ((48.9±5.1)mm vs. (45.2±6.1) mm, P<0.001). CHA₂DS₂-VASc score was similar between the two subgroups ((2.0±1.4) vs. (1.8±1.4), P>0.05). There was no difference in the rate of patients with a CHA₂DS₂-VASc scores ≥2 between the subgroups(62.5% (25/40) vs. 57.0% (94/165), P=0.525). The incidences of LAA thrombus in HCM and AF patients with CHA₂DS₂-VASc scores of 0, 1 and 2 were 8.8% (3/34) , 9.6% (5/52) , 11.8% (11/119) , respectively; and the rate of LAA sludge were 8.8% (3/52) , 7.7% (4/52) , 9.2% (11/119) , respectively. The cut off value of LAD for the diagnosis of LAA thrombus/sludge was 44.5 mm. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that LAD≥44.5 mm (OR=5.134, 95%CI 1.862-14.156, P=0.002) , non-paroxysmal AF (OR=2.782, 95%CI 1.238-6.252, P=0.013) , previous thromboembolism or stroke (OR=1.820, 95%CI 0.774-4.227, P=0.017) were independent determinants of LAA thrombus/sludge. Conclusions The incidence of LAA thrombus/sludge is higher in patients with HCM and AF than in AF patients without HCM. The CHA₂DS₂-VASc score is similar between HCM and AF patients with LAA thrombus/sludge and those without thrombus/sludge. Patients with CHA₂DS₂-VASc score 0-1 are also likely to suffer LAA thrombus/sludge. Left atrial enlargement is associated with LAA thrombus/sludge.

Preventing and mitigating major risk exposure is an important task for modern countries to maintain sustained and healthy economic development and overall social stability. In this manuscript, the authors introduced Israel′s current medical and health care risk prevention system, including the regional health emergency response coordination mechanism, hospital′s external emergency rescue capacity building and hospital′s internal security system. Israel′s risk prevention system has been tested by wars and terrorist attacks, as well as many infectious diseases outbreaks. Thus the authors expected that its successful experiences can be introduced as a reference for improving China′s medical and health care risk prevention system.
