Objective: To analyze the nucleic acid load of human parvovirus B19 in major commercially available blood products in China, including human albumin, human intravenous immunoglobulin, human rabies immunoglobulin and various coagulation factor products, aiming to provide evidence for improving blood product manufacturing processes and quality control of source plasma. Methods: A total of 98 batches of coagulation factor products were tested for human parvovirus B19 nucleic acid using real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR, including 42 batches of human prothrombin complex, 35 batches of human coagulation factor Ⅷ, and 21 batches of human fibrinogen. Additionally, 6 batches of human albumin, 6 batches of human intravenous immunoglobulin, and 38 batches of human rabies immunoglobulin were tested for human parvovirus B19 nucleic acid. Results: Human parvovirus B19 nucleic acid were undetectable in human albumin, human intravenous immunoglobulin and human rabies immunoglobulin. Among the 98 batches of coagulation factor products tested for human parvovirus B19 nucleic acid, B19 nucleic acid reactivity rate was 69.0% (29/42) for human prothrombin complex batches, but nucleic acid concentration were all significantly lower than 10
IU/mL. The reactivity rate of B19 nucleic acid in 35 batches of human coagulation factor Ⅷ was 48.6% (17/35), with nucleic acid concentration all below 10
IU/mL. The reactivity rate of B19 nucleic acid in 21 batches of human fibrinogen was 61.9% (13/21), with nucleic acid concentration all below 10
IU/mL. Conclusion: No human parvovirus B19 has been detected in human albumin, human intravenous immunoglobulin, or human rabies immunoglobulin. Human parvovirus B19 nucleic acid may exist in commercially available coagulation factor products, highlighting the need for enhanced screening of human parvovirus B19 nucleic acid in these products. It is also recommended that B19 viral nucleic acid testing be conducted on source plasma, particularly for coagulation factor products.

This study compared the differences in intestinal absorption characteristics of eleven active components in Rubus multibracteatus(RM) extract(protocatechuic acid, tiliroside, scutellarin, luteoloside, astragalin, epicatechin, catechin, xanthotoxin, p-coumaric acid, caffeic acid, and apigenin-7-O-glucuronide) between normal rats and inflammatory pain model rats using the in-vitro everted intestinal sac model. The RM extract was administered at absorption concentrations of 25.0, 50.0, and 100.0 mg·mL~(-1). The contents of the eleven components in intestinal absorption solution samples were quantified by ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(UPLC-MS/MS), and their cumulative absorption(Q) and absorption rate constant(K_a) were calculated to evaluate the absorption characteristics of these components in normal rats and inflammatory pain model rats. The results show that except for catechin, epicatechin, and caffeic acid, the cumulative absorption-time curves of the other eight components(protocatechuic acid, tiliroside, scutellarin, luteoloside, astragalin, xanthotoxin, p-coumaric acid, and apigenin-7-O-glucuronide) exhibit an upward trend without saturation, with correlation coefficients(R~2) all > 0.9, indicating linear absorption. However, the overall absorption of all components is not dose-dependent with increasing concentration, suggesting that their absorption mechanisms are not solely passive diffusion. In both normal and model rats, the jejunum shows the highest absorption for all components except xanthotoxin. The overall absorption of seven components(excluding protocatechuic acid, caffeic acid, apigenin-7-O-glucuronide, and luteoloside) in normal rats is better than that in model rats across all intestinal segments. These findings indicate that the pathological state of inflammatory pain alters the intestinal absorption of RM extract, and its mechanism needs further investigation.

Objective:To perform routine plasma test, SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid test, and respiratory pathogenic microorganism nucleic acid test on plasma samples collected from 1 040 healthy plasma donors in winter.Methods:Plasma samples were collected from 1 040 healthy plasma donors at Yunmeng Plasma Collection Station in the winter of 2020. Routine plasma test, HBV/HCV/HIV nucleic acid test, SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid test, and 22 respiratory pathogenic microorganism nucleic acid test were performed to analyze the quality of blood plasmas.Results:All plasma samples were qualified in the routine tests, meeting the requirements of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia, and tested negative for SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid. Respiratory pathogenic microorganism nucleic acids were detected in 29 samples with a positive rate of 2.79% (29/1 040). There were 21 cases of simple virus infections, including 17 cases of coronavirus subtype infection, three cases of parainfluenza virus type 2 infection, and one case of human bocavirus infection. Eight cases were mixed infections of viruses and bacteria, four of which were viral infection combined with Bordetella pertussis. The 29 positive samples were collected from people of different age groups, including two from 31-40 years old (1.96%, 2/102 ), three from 41-50 years old (1.59%, 3/189), five from 51-55 years old (1.94%, 5/257), and 19 from 56-60 years old (4.59%, 19/414). Samples from the people aged 56-60 years accounted for the most (39.81%, 414/1 040), as well as the infection rate in this age group. Conclusions:In autumn and winter, respiratory pathogenic microorganism nucleic acid test should be performed when collecting plasma samples from donors aged 56-60 years in addition to meeting the requirements of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia. It is also suggested to conduct respiratory pathogenic microorganism nucleic acid test on pooled plasma and blood products.

Objective:To investigate the distribution of health needs and healthcare workforce demands among potential service users in community health service institurions (CHSIs) and establish a comprehensive health needs profile for targeted service development.Methods:This is a cross-sectional study. A questionnaire survey (55 items for adults and 39 items for minors) was conducted among 564 residents aged 3-65 in Dapuqiao Subdistrict, Shanghai from March to May 2024. A health sketch model was developed, encompassing five dimensions (intake, basal metabolism, consumption, influencing factors, and somatosensory perception). Health issues were mapped to standardized healthcare services, and annual standardized workloads (SW) were calculated to quantify human resource demands. Results:Among 534 valid responses (94.68% response rate), 355 from the adults and 179 from minors, the top health issues for adults were irregular diet, nutritional imbalance, obesity, somatic fatigue, and disordered eating; for minors, they were nutritional imbalance, medication overuse, insufficient physical activity, picky eating, and anorexia. The total annual SW required to address these needs was 3 906 807.93. Among them, the total SW for each age group was as follows: the total annual SW demand for children aged between 3 and 5 years old was 24 108.90, for children aged between 6 and 11 years old was 141 355.70, for adolescents aged between 12 and 17 years old was 29 813.74, 223 475.50 for 18-24 year olds, 476 426.53 for 25-34 year olds, 1 221 105.84 for 35-44 year olds, 812 200.22 for 45-54 year olds; and 978 321.50 for 55-65 year olds. Workforce allocation analysis revealed a total demand for 139.84 standardized personnel, with rehabilitation therapists (38.16), general practitioners (35.69), and nurses (27.34) being the top three required roles.Conclusions:Health needs and workforce demands vary significantly across age groups. This study provides a data-driven framework for optimizing community health services through stratified health needs profiling and precision resource allocation. Future strategies should prioritize tailored interventions and workforce planning to bridge service gaps and enhance health outcomes.

Objective:To investigate the descrepancy between current supply and demand based on standardiized workload for rational human resource allocation in community health service centers.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted in Dapuqiao Community Health Service Center of Shanghai Huangpu District from January 1st to December 3lst 2023. The current status of demand and supply were analyzed using the 2023 data of the institution. The standardised workload was measured according to the potential basic medical and public health service needs based on the disease profile and population groups in the community. The discrepancy between the current supply and theoretical demand was analyzed.Results:A total of 36 634 patients paid 277 262 visits in outpatient clinics of Dapuqiao Community Health Service Center in 2023. There are total 161 employees in the center, 124 of whom are female (77.02%). The actual calibrated workload of basic medical care and public health service in the center calculated on fee-based medical service items in 2023 was 2 888 425.61 and 455 898.35, respectively; while the theoretically calibrated workload was 5 416 492.42 and 711 230.94, respectively. The center employed 131 medical and health workers currently, calibrated as 90.67 employees based on current demand, while it should be 183.74 calibrated on the theoretical demand, there was a certain discrepancy between the current staffing and the standard staffing based on the standardized workload calculation.Conclusion:At present, the actual standardized workload of basic medical and public health services in Dapuqiao Community Health Service Center still has room for improvement, but there is a certain gap between the current human resource allocation and the demand.
