[Objective] To analyze the influencing factors of repeat blood donor lapsing using a zero-inflated poisson regression model (ZIP). [Methods] The blood donation behavior of 12 498 whole blood donors from 2020 was tracked until December 31, 2023. The factors influencing the frequency of blood donations in a given year was analyzed using ZIP, and donors with 0 blood donation in that year were considered to have lapsed. The changes in relevant influencing factors associated with each blood donation were measured and modeled for analysis. [Results] The zero-inflated part of ZIP showed that the risk of lapsing of male blood donors was 2.24 times that of female blood donors (OR 95% CI:1.864-2.696, P<0.001); the risk of lapsing of the 35-44 age group and over 45 age group was respectively 40% (OR 95% CI:0.455-0.790, P<0.001) and 61%(OR 95% CI:0.268-0.578, P<0.001) lower than that of the under 25 age group; the risk of lapsing for those who have donated blood twice and ≥3 times was respectively 50% (OR 95% CI:0.405-0.609, P<0.001) and 81% (OR 95% CI:0.154-0.225, P<0.001) lower than that of first-time donors; the risk of lapsing of those with junior high or high school education was 1.2 times that of those with a college degree or higher (OR 95% CI:1.033-1.384, P<0.05); the risk of lapsing for the divorced group was 2.02 times that of the married group (OR 95% CI:1.445-2.820, P<0.001); the risk of lapsing for those with an income (Yuan) of 10 000 to 50 000, 50 000 to 100 000 and more than 100 000 was respectively 0.67 (OR 95% CI:0.552-0.818, P<0.001), 0.72 (OR 95% CI:0.591-0.884, P=0.002) and 0.67 (OR 95% CI:0.535-0.834, P<0.001) times that of those with an income (Yuan) of less than 10 000. The results of the Poisson part are consistent with the results of the zero-inflated part in terms of age and education level. [Conclusion] Blood donor lapsing is overall related to factors such as gender, age, donation frequency, education, marital status and family income. It's essential to care for those blood donors prone to lapse to retain more regular blood donors.
2.Suspected adverse events following immunization associated with seperate/combined administration of 13-valent pneumococcal polysaccharide conjugate vaccine and oral pentavalent human rotavirus live attenuated vaccine in age-eligible children in a district of Shanghai
Shanghai Journal of Preventive Medicine 2025;37(3):234-238
ObjectiveTo analyze the safety of simultaneous vaccination of 13-valent pneumococcal conjugate vaccine (PCV13) and oral pentavalent human rotavirus live attenuated vaccine (RV5) in age-eligible children in Changning District, Shanghai. MethodsAdverse events following immunization (AEFI) and vaccination information after PCV13 and RV5 vaccination from Jan.1, 2022 to Dec.31, 2023 were collected through the National Immunization Program Information Management System and the Shanghai Immunization Information System in Changning District. We compared the incidence rates of AEFI reports after PCV13 and RV5 standalone and simultaneous vaccination. ResultsPCV13 was administered standalone in 7 654 doses, with 107 AEFI reports and an AEFI reporting rate of 1 397.96/100 000, including 1 371.83/100 000 for general reactions (105 cases) and 26.13/100 000 for abnormal reactions (2 cases). RV5 was administered standalone in 8 114 doses, with 30 AEFI reports and an AEFI reporting rate of 369.73/100 000, all of which were general reactions. PCV13 and RV5 were administered simultaneously in 6 731 doses, with 56 AEFI reports and an AEFI reporting rate of 831.97/100 000, including 802.26/100 000 for general reactions (54 cases), 14.86/100 000 for abnormal reactions (1 case), and 14.86/100 000 for coupling symptoms (1 case). ConclusionThe incidence rates of AEFI reports after PCV13 and RV5 vaccination standalone or simultaneous among age-eligible children in Changning District are within an acceptable range, primarily consisting of general reactions. PCV13 and RV5 simultaneous vaccination did not increase the risk of AEFI incidence.

Objective: To investigate the current status of iron metabolism among apheresis donors in Guangzhou and analyze the improvement effects of health education on iron deficiency in frequent apheresis donors. Methods: Using a generalized linear mixed model (GLMM), a 180-day follow-up was conducted on 261 eligible apheresis donors at the Guangzhou Blood Center from January to July 2024. Hemoglobin (Hb), serum ferritin (SF), unsaturated iron-binding capacity (UIBC), total iron-binding capacity (TIBC), and transferrin saturation (TS) were selected as outcome variables. The effects of gender, age group, and number of donations within 180 days on these outcomes were analyzed and modeled. A general linear model (GLM) with repeated measures was applied to 55 donors who received health education interventions, comparing changes in Hb and iron metabolism-related indicators before and after follow-up and health education. Results: No significant difference in Hb levels was observed between first-time and regular apheresis donors, but SF levels were significantly higher in first-time donors (F=6.195, P<0.05). The GLMM revealed that female donors exhibited more significant reductions in Hb (T=-12.546) and SF (T=-5.829)(P<0.05 for both). Age group showed no interactive effects on Hb or SF changes. While number of donations within 180 days had no interactive effect on Hb, SF levels significantly decreased with increased number of donations (using ≥9 donations as the reference group; P<0.05 for all groups). After health education, Hb levels remained unchanged, but SF increased compared to pre-intervention levels (mean difference: -18.571, P<0.05), though a declining trend persisted compared to baseline (mean difference from baseline to post-intervention: 23.068,P<0.05). Conclusion: Female and number of donations are primary factors contributing to SF reduction in apheresis donors. Health education interventions promote SF recovery. Extending donation intervals and reinforcing iron deficiency-related health education may improve iron status in donors.

Objective: To preliminarily develop a multidimensional blood donor role scale based on role theory and systematically compare the psychosocial characteristic differences between award-winning donors and first-time donors in Guangzhou, and to provide an empirical reference for formulating differentiated donor retention strategies. Methods: A cross-sectional survey design was adopted. A random sample of award-winning donors and concurrently sampled first-time donors yielding 1 361 valid responses collected (721 from the award group, 640 from the first-time group). Exploratory factor analysis was used to assess the scale structure. Data were post-stratified and weighted according to the gender and age distributions of the general donor population. Independent samples t-tests, multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA), and generalized linear models were employed to compare dimensional scores between the two groups. A paired t-test was conducted to analyze the annual donation frequency of award-winning donors before and after receiving the award. Results: Exploratory factor analysis yielded a 5-factor structure, including Role Identity and Expectations, Role Adaptation and Maintenance, Role Environment and Experience, Role Relationships and Conflict, and Role Incentives and Rewards, with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 56.43%. The scale demonstrated good internal consistency reliability (Cronbach's α=0.906). Known-group validity test showed that award-winning donors scored significantly higher than first-time donors on Role Identity and Expectations (t=4.366, P<0.001, d=0.240), Role Adaptation and Maintenance (t=5.436, P<0.001, d=0.500), and Role Relationships and Conflict (t=4.844, P<0.001, d=0.220). These differences remained significant after controlling for selected demographic variables (MANCOVA, Wilks' λ=0.943, P<0.001). Generalized linear models suggested that donation frequency was an independent predictor for these dimensions. Additionally, the annual donation frequency of award-winning donors was slightly higher after receiving the award than before (t=2.007, P=0.045). Conclusion: The preliminary blood donor role scale demonstrates acceptable reliability and validity and can effectively distinguish groups with different donation behavior characteristics. The study reveals that award-winning donors exhibit more positive psychological characteristics across multiple role identity dimensions and maintain their donation behavior after receiving an award. External incentives and internal role identity may jointly contribute to behavioral persistence. The findings provide a preliminary reference for further exploring the formation pathways of donor role identity and developing differentiated donor retention strategies.

【Objective】 To compare the effects of 3 rehydration methods before blood donation on the prevention of on-site and delayed blood donation-related vasovagal response (VVR) . 【Methods】 From January to June 2021, 6 250 whole blood donors in 6 fixed blood donation sites signed informed consent and were divided into 198 clusters according to donor sites and dates, then they were randomly assigned to receive either oral rehydration salts (ORS), sugar water, or water group, and each drank 500 mL of ORS, sugar water or water within 20 minutes before blood donation. The researchers recorded the actual intervention accepted on site, and recorded the immediate VVR and related information. At rest after blood donation, donors submitted an electronic questionnaire containing socio-demographic information. At 48 hours after blood donation, the researchers called back every donor to record delayed VVR and related information. Logistic regression based on intention to treat (ITT) was used to analyze the difference of the incidence of VVR among the three groups, and the average treatment effect on treated (ATT) was calculated. PASS 2021was used to estimate the sample size and R (4.2.0) for statistical analysis. 【Results】 The cumulative incidence of blood donation-related VVR was 2.67% (2.29%-3.11%) among street whole blood donors under the 3 rehydration methods, in which, the incidence of immediate and delayed VVR was 1.02% (0.79%-1.31%) and 1.65% (1.36%-2.01%) respectively. ITT analysis found that ORS were more effective than water in reducing the incidence of delayed VVR【OR=0.59,95% CI[0.37,0.94]】.There was no significant difference in the incidence of immediate VVR between any two groups (P > 0.05), and there was no significant difference in the incidence of delayed VVR in the sugar water group compared with the water group (P > 0.05). There was a difference of -0.013 (【95% CI[-0.022, -0.004]】or -0.008【95% CI[-0.017, -0.000]】in the incidence of delayed VVR in the ORS group compared with water group or sugar water group, the difference was significant (P<0.05). The cumulative VVR of the three groups showed similar results to the delayed VVR. 【Conclusion】 Drinking ORS before blood donation is the most effective rehydration method to prevent delayed VVR. The next step is to establish the predictive model of delayed VVR to screen the susceptible population and provide them with ORS before blood donation, while other population can choose any liquid they like, thus achieving personalized blood donation-related VVR prevention and control.

As a malignant hematological disease mainly originating from T or B lymphoid progenitor cell, acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL) is more prevalent in children. With the gradual revelation of the autophagy mechanism, the role of autophagy in ALL has gained increasing attention. Autophagy can not only stimulate the survival of leukemia cells as an adaptive response, but also inhibit cell proliferation in some other cases. Therefore, how to regulate autophagy in promoting death or survival and reduce the drug resistance in ALL has become a hotspot. This article reviews the role of autophagy in ALL.

Objective:To observe the effects of nutritional status on the surgical outcomes, nutritional indicators, and renal anemia of maintenance hemodialysis patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism undergoing parathyroidectomy.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 35 patients who underwent maintenance hemodialysis with secondary hyperparathyroidism at Huadu District People′s Hospital of Guangzhou from January 2016 to January 2021. All patients underwent total parathyroidectomy with autologous forearm transplantation due to ineffective drug treatment. Before surgery, patients were divided into three groups based on their nutritional status scores: no malnutrition group (0-1 points), mild malnutrition group (2-4 points), and moderate to severe malnutrition group (5-12 points). The changes in serum parathyroid hormone, blood calcium, blood phosphorus, blood albumin, and other indicators were observed at different time points before and after surgery in different groups of patients.Results:The serum parathyroid hormone, blood phosphorus, and calcium phosphorus product of maintenance hemodialysis patients with different nutritional status who underwent parathyroidectomy at 3, 6, and 12 months were significantly decreased compared with preoperative levels, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). There were no significant changes in albumin, lymphocyte count, and total cholesterol levels in patients without malnutrition at 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery compared with preoperative levels (all P>0.05); The lymphocyte count of patients with mild malnutrition increased significantly at 6 and 12 months after surgery compared to preoperative levels (all P<0.05). The levels of albumin and total cholesterol in patients with moderate to severe malnutrition increased significantly at 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery compared with preoperative levels (all P<0.05). The Hb levels of patients without malnutrition and those with mild malnutrition increased significantly at 6 and 12 months after surgery compared with preoperative levels (all P<0.05); The Hb levels of patients with moderate to severe malnutrition increased significantly at 3, 6, and 12 months after surgery compared with preoperative levels (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Nutritional status affects the long-term outcomes of parathyroidectomy in hemodialysis patients, and parathyroidectomy can significantly improve the nutritional and anemia status of hemodialysis patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism. This effect is more pronounced in patients with moderate to severe malnutrition before surgery.

Alzheimer's disease(AD)is a common degenerative disease of the central nervous system in which neuropathological changes precede cognitive dysfunction and behavioral impairment. Currently, early diagnosis of AD is based on invasive and expensive testing techniques that are difficult to use widely in the clinical setting. Therefore, there is an urgent need for new markers to detect AD at an early stage. The eye, as an extension of the brain, has been found to show earlier onset of ocular pathologic changes in patients with AD compared to brain pathologic changes, such as retinal structural abnormalities, visual dysfunction, retinal abnormal protein accumulation, choroidal thickness changes, decreased corneal nerve fiber density, deposition of abnormal Aβ proteins in the lens, and pupillary light decreased sensitivity of response, etc. This article reviews the ocular pathologic changes in AD patients in recent years to provide new ideas for the early clinical diagnosis of AD.
