[Objective] To explore the incidence and risk factors of blood transfusion undergoing total knee revision (TKR) using a nationwide database. [Methods] A retrospective data analysis was conducted based on the Nationwide Inpatient Sample (NIS), enrolling patients who underwent TKR from 2015 to 2019 with complete information. Patients under 18 years old and those using anticoagulants, antiplatelets, antithrombotic and non-steroidal were excluded. The patients were divided into two groups based on whether they received blood transfusion or not. The demographic characteristics, length of stay (LOS), total charge of hospitalization, hospital characteristics, hospital mortality, comorbidities and perioperative complications by Wilcoxon rank test for continuous data and chi-square test for categorical data. Logistic regression was performed to identify risk factors of blood transfusion undergoing TKR. [Results] The NIS database included 63 359 patients who underwent TKR. Among them, 5 271 patients received blood transfusion, with an incidence of blood transfusion of 7.8%. There was a decrease in the incidence over the years from 2015 to 2019, dropping from 10.2% to 6.5%. TKR patients requiring transfusions had experienced longer LOS, incurred higher total medical expenses, utilized Medicare more frequently, and had increased in-hospital mortality rates (all P<0.001). Independent risk factors for blood transfusion included female gender, iron-deficiency anemia, rheumatoid disease, collagen vascular disease, chronic blood loss anemia, congestive heart failure, coagulopathy, diabetes with chronic complications, lymphoma, fluid and electrolyte disorders, peripheral vascular disorders, renal failure, valvular disease and weight loss (malnutrition). In addition, risk factors for transfusion in TKR surgery included sepsis, acute myocardial infarction, deep vein thrombosis, gastrointestinal bleeding, heart failure, pneumonia, urinary tract infection, acute renal failure, postoperative delirium, wound infection, lower limb nerve injury, hemorrhage, seroma, hematoma, wound rupture and non healing. [Conclusion] Our findings highlight the importance of recognizing the risk factors of blood transfusion in TKR and establishing corresponding clinical pathways and intervention measures to reduce the occurrence of adverse events.

Objective: To understand the status and related factors of knowledge, attitude and practice (KAP) on vision health among young children s parents in Bao an District, Shenzhen, so as to provide reference for further controlling myopia and promoting children s visual health. Methods: From May 16th to 26th, 2024, a stratified cluster random sampling method was used to conduct an online questionnaire survey on 7 666 parents of kindergarten children across 41 kindergartens in a street of Bao an District, Shenzhen. The t-test, variance analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were used to analyze the related factors of KAP on vision health among children s parents. Results: The pass rates of parental vision KAP and overall assessment were 25.10%, 98.49 %, 71.18% and 58.26%, respectively. The results of the multiple linear regression analysis showed that only fathers with myopia, only mothers with myopia, both parents with myopia, children in the bottom classes, middle classes, senior classes, and pre school had higher standardized scores for KAP on vision health among parents ( β=0.08, 0.11, 0.16, 0.17, 0.16, 0.16, 0.05, P <0.05), compared to both parents without myopia and children in daycare classes. Parents of young children with myopia, and who didn t know their children s visual acuity and their own visual acuity had a lower KAP standardized scores ( β=-0.02, -0.04, -0.05 , P< 0.05). Conclusions Young children s parents in Bao an District hold a positive attitude towards vision health, but are lack of knowledge and practice. It is imperative to transmit accurate information and concepts about children s vision health to parents in a targeted manner. In particular, knowledge and guidance should be strengthened for children s parents.

Objective:To investigate effects of polydimethylsiloxane coating on the quality characteristics and qual-ity control methods of medium borosilicate glass tube injection bottles,including appearance,identification,physi-cal properties,water resistance of inner surface and element leaching amount.Methods:Nine batches of coated medium borosilicate glass tube injection bottles and corresponding medium borosilicate glass tube injection bottles from three companies were used to evaluate whether the quality control method of medium borosilicate glass tube in-jection bottles after polydimethylsiloxane film was modified,and to evaluate the effect of coating on the quality char-acteristics of bottles.Results:The coating did not have effect on appearance,identification and physical properties of medium borosilicate glass tube injection bottle.The coating process did not damage the original performance of the medium borosilicate glass tube injection bottle,and lead to the matters with special attention on the inspection method.The water resistance of the inner surface of the coated medium borosilicate glass tube injection bottle was improved.The leaching amounts of harmful elements such as arsenic,antimony,lead and cadmium before and after coating were low,indicating that the coating process did not increase the leaching risk of these harmful elements.The leaching amounts of elements were determined by ICP-OES,and no significant changes were found in most metal elements.Conclusion:The appearance,identification,physical properties and element leaching quality con-trol method of medium borosilicate glass tube injection bottle after poly dimethylsiloxane film coating do not need to be changed.The water resistance of the inner surface after coating is improved,and there is no significant adverse effect on other quality characteristics.

Objective To explore the effectiveness and safety of percutaneous coronary artery shock wave balloon angioplasty(IVL)under the guidance of intravascular ultrasound(IVUS)for the treatment of severe calcification lesions in the left main artery(LM).Methods A total of 26 patients with severe LM(mouth,body,bifurcation)calcification admitted to Jiangnan University Affiliated Hospital from October 2022 to April 2024 were included,with an average age of 72.0(61.8,75.4)years.Under the guidance of IVUS,IVL was used for pre-treatment of calcified lesions,followed by percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)with stent/drug balloon implantation.All patients were evaluated using IVUS before and after the use of IVL and after PCI.And compare the IVUS intracavity related data before and after treatment[plaque burden(PB)、minimum lumen area(MLA)、minimum lumen diameter(MLD)]and calcification fracture number,minimum stent area(MSA),stent expansion coefficient(expansion,EXP),etc.Results There were 26 patients(2 with opening lesions,7 with body lesions,and 17 with bifurcation lesions at the end of the main trunk),including 7 with stable angina pectoris(SAP),10 with unstable angina(UA),4 with acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(STEMI),and 5 with non ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction(NSTEMI).The PB at the most severe site of calcification decreased by 79.50(76.00,83.75)％compared to 80.00(76.00,83.75)％after IVL(P=0.001),MLA increased by 3.39(3.14,3.68)mm2 compared to 3.38(3.14,3.67)mm2 after IVL(P=0.039),MLD increased by 3.21(3.07,3.30)mm compared to 3.20(3.07,3.30)mm after IVL(P=0.024),and there was 100％calcification rupture(1/2 cases,2/9 cases,≥3/15 cases).The stent/drug ball was successfully implanted 100％,with EXP of(89.15±4.42)％and an MSA of 7.20(6.46,7.45)mm2.No adverse events such as death,angina or recurrent myocardial infarction occurred during the 3 months follow-up after surgery.Conclusions After evaluation by IVUS and pre-treatment with IVL,PCI was successfully completed for severe calcification lesions in LM,and IVL can be used as an option for the treatment of severe calcification in LM.

The transmission cycle of echinococcosis was established in 1853.More than 160 years have elapsed since Iceland initiated control measures to break the transmission cycle of echinococcosis in 1863.Control plans have been implemented in more than a dozen countries/territories,and lessons have been learned from failures as well as successes.In this review,we fo-cus on the failure experiences,which have also promoted successes in the control of cystic echinococcosis(caused by the para-site Echinococcus granulosus)in regions including Iceland,New Zealand,Uruguay,Wales(England),Turkana(Kenya),and Sardinia(Italy).The causes of the failures were analyzed,and the effects of health education,dog deworming,and con-trol measures for infected animal slaughter on echinococcosis control are comprehensively summarized.However,no suc-cessful experience has been reported in the control of alveolar echinococcosis(caused by the parasite Echinococcus multilocu-laris).On the basis of the biological characteristics of E.mul-tilocularis parasitization in dogs for a duration of 30 days and larvae parasitization in rodents,the fundamental measure for controlling alveolar echinococcosis is administration of monthly deworming treatments to dogs in high prevalence areas.

Objective:To optimize the technical parameters related to the preparation of novel frozen human platelets and formulate corresponding protocol for its preparation.Methods:Novel frozen human platelets were prepared with O-type bagged platelet-rich plasma(PRP),the key technical parameters(DMSO addition,incubation time,centrifugation conditions,etc.)of the preparation process were optimized,and the quality of the frozen platelets was evaluated by routine blood tests,apoptosis rate,platelet activation rate and surface protein expression level.Results:In the preparation protocol of novel frozen human platelets,the operation of centrifugation to remove supernatant was adjusted to before the procedure of platelets freezing,and the effect of centrifugation on platelets was minimal when the centrifugation condition was 800 xg for 8 min.In addition,platelets incubated with DMSO for 30 min before centrifugation exhibited better quality after freezing and thawing.The indexes of novel frozen human platelets prepared with this protocol remained stable after long-term cryopreservation.Conclusion:The preparation technique of novel frozen human platelets was established and the protocol was formulated.It was also confirmed that the quality of frozen platelets could be improved by incubating platelets with DMSO for 30 min and then centrifuging them at 800 ×g for 8 min in the preparation of novel frozen human platelets.

Objective:Myelodysplastic syndrome(MDS)is a group of heterogeneous clonal disorders originating from hematopoietic stem cells,characterized by hemocytopenia and a high risk of transformation to acute myeloid leukemia(AML).The expected survival time of MDS patients varies widely,and accurate prognostic assessment is particularly important.Currently,patients with MDS are usually classified into a higher-risk group(HR-MDS)and a lower-risk group(LR-MDS)based on clinical prognostic scoring systems,but these scoring systems have certain limitations.Patients with LR-MDS account for 2/3 of MDS patients,with a lower risk of disease progression and a better prognosis,and their treatment mainly relies on erythropoiesis-stimulating agents,immunosuppressants and component transfusion.However,some LR-MDS patients still have poor prognosis,and the existing prognostic scoring systems cannot accurately evaluate their prognosis.In this review,the potential factors that may influence the prognosis of MDS patients beyond the existing assessment criteria were briefly summarized,with the aim of providing reference for the prognosis evaluation and treatment of LR-MDS patients.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of single-incision plus one-port three dimensional (3D) laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (SILPD+1).Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 40 patients who underwent 3D laparos-copic pancreaticoduodenectomy in Affiliated Hospital of North Sichuan Medical College from January to October 2023 were collected. There were 24 males and 16 females, aged (63±10)years. Of the 40 patients, 18 cases undergoing SILPD+1 were divided into the SILPD+1 group, and 22 cases under-going conventional five-trocar 3D laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (CLPD) were divided into the CLPD group. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) postoperative situations and complications. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was conducted using the independent t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was conducted using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers, and comparison between groups was conducted using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Comparison of ordinal data was conducted using the Mann-Whitney rank sum test. Results:(1) Surgical situa-tions. Seventeen patients of the SILPD+1 group completed surgery successfully, and the rest of one patient with an inflammatory mass of the pancreatic head was converted to open surgery due to unclear boundary with mesenteric blood vessels and severe adhesion of surrounding tissues. All patients of the CLPD group completed surgery successfully, without conversion to open surgery. There was no significant difference in conversion to open surgery between the two groups ( P>0.05), and there was no significant difference in the volume of intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative blood transfusion or operation time ( P>0.05). (2) Postoperative situations and complications. There was no significant difference in tumor diameter, the number of lymph node dissected, the number of positive lymph node, R 0 resection, tumor type, time to postoperative first flatus, time to postopera-tive first intake liquid food, tome to first out-of-bed activity, time to postoperative drainage tube removal, duration of postoperative hospital stay, postoperative bleeding, pancreatic fistula, chylous leakage, delayed gastric emptying, abdominal fluid collection, incision infection, classification of com-plications between the two groups ( P>0.05). Postoperative pain score of the SILPD+1 group and the CLPD group was 5.0(4.5,6.0) and 6.5(6.0,7.0), respectively, showing a significant difference ( Z=-3.61, P<0.05). Both groups of patients had no occurrence of biliary fistula or abdominal infection after surgery, and there was no readmission within 30 days after surgery or no death within 90 days after surgery. Conclusions:Compared with CLPD, SILPD+1 is safe and feasible, with less postoperative pain. While ensuring oncological outcomes, SILPD+1 does not increase surgical time, postoperative hospital stay, or incidence of postoperative complications.
