Objective: To explore the association between the HLA antibody positivity rate in female blood donors and pregnancy history, number of pregnancies, interval from the last pregnancy to blood donation, and age, to identify associated variables using a univariate generalized additive model (GAM), and to further analyze the predictive role of characteristic variables for HLA antibody positivity using a random forest model. Methods: HLA antibody detection was performed on 391 female blood donors using the Luminex immunomagnetic bead method. The correlation between pregnancy-related factors and HLA antibodies was analyzed using the Chi-square test. Based on R software, a univariate GAM was first constructed to analyze the association types between characteristic variables and the HLA antibody positivity rate, followed by the construction of a random forest model to evaluate the predictive value of the variables. Results: Among the 391 female blood donors without a transfusion history, the overall HLA antibody positivity rate was 26.34%. The positivity rate in donors with a pregnancy history was significantly higher than that in those without (30.09% vs 9.72%, P<0.05), and HLA antibody positivity rate increased linearly with the number of pregnancies (P<0.05). In the univariate GAM, age and number of deliveries exhibited a non-linear association with the HLA antibody positivity rate (the positivity rate increased sharply between 25-35 years of age and stabilized after 3 deliveries). Besides, the interval from the last pregnancy to blood donation showed a linear association with the HLA antibody positivity rate, and the positivity rate decreased as the interval prolonged (P<0.05). In the random forest model, age (mean decrease gini=29.26) and interval from the last pregnancy to blood donation (mean decrease gini=22.02) were core predictive variables: age was more conducive to identifying positive samples, while the interval from the last pregnancy to blood donation was more helpful for excluding negative samples. The number of deliveries (mean decrease accuracy=16.98) made a significant contribution to predicting positive samples, whereas the number of abortions had no impact. The model had an AUC of 0.583 (95% CI: 0.593 8-0.770 2), indicating a certain predictive value. Conclusion: The associated variables identified by the univariate GAM model, including age, interval from the last pregnancy to blood donation, and number of deliveries, provide a basis for key variables in the random forest model. All three variables have predictive value for HLA antibody positivity, which can provide evidence-based support for personalized transfusion management and stratified screening of female blood donors in this region.

Objective To establish the genetic typing detection technique of matrix-assisted laser de-sorption ionization-time or flight mass spectrometry(MALDI-TOF MS),and to apply it to investigate the polymorphism of the human platelet antigen(HPA)-29-35w low-frequency gene in blood donor population from Guangxi area.Methods The RS number of 7 target gene mutation sites in dbSNP and 21 primers were designed by using Assay Design Suite(ADS)of MassARRAY platform online primer design tool.Seven over-expression vectors inserting into HPA-29-35bb mutant sequence were constructed.Twenty-nine blood donors were randomly selected among the blood donors team in Guangxi area.The samples and vectors conducted the iPLEX Pro multiple genotyping analysis and mass spectrometric detection.Meanwhile,the above samples were sequenced and the sequencing results conducted the comparison validation with the mass spectrometric detec-tion results,then the MALDI-TOF MS genotyping detection technology was established.Then adopting this technology conducted the platelet antigen HPA-29-35W genotyping detection and polymorphism analysis in the samples from 588 blood donors in Guangxi area.Results The MALDI-TOF MS HPA genotyping detec-tion results were consistent with the sequencing results.The HPA-29-35w genotyping results showed that theHPA-29-35w genotype of 588 blood donors in Guangxi area was aa homozygote.Conclusion The genotype detection method of MALDI-TOF MS for HPA-29-35w is successfully established and applied to the screening of HPA-29-35w gene among the blood donor population in Guangxi area.

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the value of ⁶⁸Ga-DOTATATE and ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT imaging in staging and treatment decision for gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP-NEN). METHODS: This retrospective analysis was conducted in 49 patients with GEP-NEN undergoing ¹⁸F-FDG and ⁶⁸Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT imaging at our hospital from August, 2020 to March, 2023, including 34 newly diagnosed patients and 15 patients with recurrence or metastasis after treatment. GEP-NEN were classified into G1, G2, and G3 neuroendocrine tumors (NET) and neuroendocrine carcinomas (NEC) based on pathological typing. The detection efficiency were classified into 4 patterns based on the number of positive tumor lesions detected by the two tracers: ⁶⁸Ga-DOTATATE>¹⁸F-FDG (A); ⁶⁸Ga-DOTATATE=¹⁸F-FDG (B); ⁶⁸Ga-DOTATATE<¹⁸F-FDG (C); and complementation (D). The value of dual-modality imaging in staging and treatment decision were evaluated by visual analysis. RESULTS: In the 49 patients with GEP-NEN, ⁶⁸Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT was superior to ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT for detecting systemic tumor lesions (P<0.001) and more sensitive for detecting primary/recurrent lesions, lymph node metastasis, liver metastasis, and bone metastasis (P<0.05), while ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT had higher detection rates for lung metastasis and peritoneal metastasis (P<0.05). In terms of the detection efficiency, Pattern A was found in 46.9% (23/49) patients, Pattern B in 38.8% (19/49), Pattern C in 12.2% (6/49), and Pattern D in 2.0% (1/49). The complementary value of ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT to ⁶⁸Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT was 0% in G1 NET patients (0/13), 8.3% in G2 NET patients (2/24), 50% in G3 NET patients (3/6), and 33.3% in NEC patients (2/6). 12.2% (6/49) of the patients had their staging confirmed or changed due to additional lesions detected by ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT imaging, resulting subsequently in establishment or adjustment of their treatment plans. CONCLUSIONS ⁶⁸Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT imaging should be the primary choice for GEP-NEN patients. Additional ¹⁸F-FDG PET/CT imaging can potentially improve precision of staging and treatment decision-making for G2, G3 and NEC patients but provides virtually no clinical benefits for G1 NET patients.

Background Mobile phone addiction has attracted widespread attention in society,and psychological abuse and neglect is an important factor in predicting mobile phone addiction,whereas limited research has been done to evaluate its impact on mobile phone addiction.Objective To explore the correlation of psychological abuse and neglect with mobile phone addiction,and to test the pathway of self-esteem and interpersonal alienation,so as to provide references for preventing and curbing mobile phone addiction in junior high school students.Methods In May 2022,a cluster sampling was utilized to select 800 students in two middle schools in a county of Hainan Province,and all students were assessed using Child Psychological Abuse and Neglect Scale(CPANS),Mobile Phone Addiction Index(MPAI),Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale(SES)and Interpersonal Alienation Scale of Adolescent StudentsAlienation Scale.Pearson correlation analysis was adopted to determine the correlation among the above-mentioned scales,and Process Macro 3.5 for SPSS was used to test the mediation effect.Results CPANS score was negatively correlated with SES score(r=-0.278,P<0.01),and positively correlated with Interpersonal Alienation Scale score and MPAI score(r=0.471,0.372,P<0.01).SES score was negatively correlated with Interpersonal Alienation Scale score and MPAI score(r=-0.438,-0.196,P<0.01).Interpersonal Alienation Scale score was positively correlated with MPAI score(r=0.392,P<0.01).Interpersonal alienation(indirect effect value was 0.104)played a mediation role in the relationship between psychological abuse and neglect and mobile phone addiction.Self-esteem and interpersonal alienation exhibited a chained mediation effect on the relationship between psychological abuse and neglect and mobile phone addiction(indirect effect value was 0.026),accounting for 6.99%of the total effect.Conclusion Psychological abuse and neglect can not only directly predict mobile phone addiction,but also can indirectly affect mobile phone addiction through separate mediation of interpersonal alienation or chained mediation of self-esteem and interpersonal alienation.

Objective To assess the level of self-compassion in patients with lung cancer undergoing chemotherapy and identify its influencing factors in order to provide targeted intervention strategies for clinical nursing practice.Methods Using a convenience sampling method,a total of 110 patients with lung cancer who were hospitalized for chemotherapy in Fujian Cancer Hospital from January 2022 to December 2023 were selected.A general information questionnaire,self-compassion scale,M.D.Anderson symptom inventory-lung cancer,and perceived social support scale were used to investigate.Results The total score for self-compassion among lung cancer chemotherapy patients was(76.81±9.49)points,the total score for symptom burden was(112.05±35.98)points,and the total score for social support was(38.98±2.49)points.Self-compassion was negatively correlated with symptom burden(r=-0.849,P＜0.001)and positively correlated with social support(r=0.881,P＜0.001).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that age,gender,symptom burden and social support were the influencing factors of self-compassion in patients with lung cancer chemotherapy(P＜0.05).Conclusion The level of self-compassion among lung cancer chemotherapy patients is moderately low.Age,gender,symptom burden and social support were the factors influencing self-compassion of patients with lung cancer chemotherapy.Nursing staff should consider demographic characteristics and use strategies such as reducing symptom burden and improving social support to enhance self-compassion levels,thereby reducing negative emotions and improving the quality of life.

Objective To study the changes in serum immunoglobulin levels in children with thalassemia who undergo repeated blood transfusions and explore their correlation with delayed hemolytic transfusion reactions(DHTR).Methods Serum samples from children with thalassemia who received blood transfusion treatment from June 2022 to April 2023(ob-servation group)and healthy children who underwent physical examination(control group)in our hospital were collected.The levels of serum immunoglobulins(IgG subtype,IgM,IgA,IgE and IgD)were detected using flow cytometry CBA multi-factor quantitative detection technology,and the differences between the two groups were compared.The children were divided into 4 groups according to different transfusion numbers:≤10 numbers,11-30 numbers,31-50 numbers and＞50 numbers,and the differences between different blood transfusion numbers and serum immunoglobulin levels in each group were compared using one-way analysis of variance(ANOVA).Children with thalassemia with DHTR were in the hemolysis group,and children with thalassemia who did not experience DHTR were in the non-hemolysis group.The changes in serum immunoglobulins(IgG subtypes,IgM,IgA,IgE and IgD)between the two groups were compared to explore the correlation between serum immunoglobulins in thalassemia children with repeated transfusion and DHTR.Results The levels of IgG1,IgG3,IgG4 and IgA in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group,with the increase of(2.07±2.12),(0.67±2.03),(0.30±0.37)and(6.04±11.40)mg/mL,respectively,while the level of IgD in observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group,with a decrease of(0.03±0.01)mg/mL,P＜0.05.No significant difference was noticed in IgG2,IgM and IgE between the groups(P＞0.05).IgG1 and IgG4 both significantly increased with the number of blood transfusions.The IgG1 in the 4 groups increased sequentially as(0.30±0.62),(0.41±0.51)and(3.60±3.48)mg/mL,and IgG4 increased sequentially as(0.12±0.13),(0.22±0.07)and(0.21±0.38)mg/mL.IgG2,IgM and IgD showed a significant decrease,with IgG 2,IgM,and IgD in four groups decreased as(0.91±1.50),(0.14±0.10)and(0.05±0.05)mg/mL,respectively,showing significant differences with the number of blood transfusions(P＜0.05).No sig-nificant difference was found in IgG3,IgA and IgE with different number of transfusions(P＞0.05).IgG1,IgG3 and IgG4 in the hemolysis group were significantly higher than those in the non-hemolysis group,with an increase of(4.44±3.41),(0.73±1.26)and(0.52±0.40),respectively(P＜0.05).IgD in the hemolysis group was significantly lower than that in the non-hemolysis group,with a decrease of(0.00±0.06)mg/mL,P＜0.05.No significance was noticed in IgG2,IgM,IgA and IgE between the hemolysis group and the non-hemolysis group(P＞0.05).Conclusion The serum immunoglobulin levels of children with thalassemia who undergo repeated blood transfusions are abnormal.There are differences in correlation between the number of blood transfusions and serum immunoglobulin levels among children with thalassemia who undergo repeated blood transfusions.The relevant serum immunoglobulins for DHTR in children with thalassemia who undergo repeated blood transfusions are IgG1,IgG3 and IgG4.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between serum homocysteine (Hcy), mannose-binding lectin (MBL), triglyceride glucose (TyG) index and homeostasis model assessment-insulinresistance (HOMA-IR) and adverse pregnancy outcomes in patients with second-trimester gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).Methods:Ninety-eight patients with GDM in the second trimester of pregnancy admitted to the Obstetrics Department of Zhongshan People′s Hospital from April 2020 to June 2022 were retrospectively selected. Serum Hcy and MBL were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay before intervention, HOMA-IR was evaluated according to homeostasis model, and fasting blood glucose (FBG) was detected by oxidase method. The level of triglyceride (TG) was detected by automatic chemiluminescence immunoassay and TyG index was calculated. The patients were given health education, dietary guidance, insulin and other treatment, followed up until delivery and pregnancy outcomes were recorded. The patients were divided into adverse pregnancy outcome group and no adverse pregnancy outcome group based on pregnancy outcomes. The factors influencing adverse pregnancy outcomes in GDM patients in the second trimester were analyzed, and the predictive value of blood glucose control, serum Hcy, MBL and TyG index on adverse pregnancy outcomes in GDM patients in the second trimester was analyzed by receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve.Results:After intervention, there were 24 cases (24.49%) of adverse pregnancy outcomes in GDM patients in the second trimester, including 2 cases of polyhydramnios, postpartum hemorrhage, neonatal hypoglycemia, 4 cases of premature membranes breaking, 4 cases of premature delivery, 6 cases of fetal macrosomia, 3 cases of low birth weight, and 1 case of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. There were statistically significant differences in the proportion of poor glycemic control, Hcy level, TyG index, HOMA-IR and MBL level between the GDM group with adverse pregnancy outcome and the GDM group without adverse pregnancy outcome (all P<0.05). By binary logistic regression analysis, Hcy, TyG index, HOMA-IR and poor glycemic control during pregnancy were risk factors for adverse pregnancy outcomes in GDM patients in the second trimester, and MBL was protective factor for adverse pregnancy outcomes in GDM patients in the second trimester (all P<0.05). The sensitivity of poor glycemic control during pregnancy, Hcy, MBL, TyG index and HOMA-IR alone and in combination to predict adverse pregnancy outcomes of GDM patients in the second trimester were 75.00%, 79.17%, 70.83%, 75.00%, 66.67% and 91.67%, respectively. The specificity was 74.32%, 78.38%, 71.62%, 75.68%, 71.62% and 91.89%, respectively. Poor glycemic control during pregnancy, Hcy, MBL, TyG index and HOMA-IR combined to predict adverse pregnancy outcomes in GDM patients during the second trimester were of high value (all P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that Hcy and TyG were positively correlated with HOMA-IR ( r=0.712, P<0.001, r=0.649, P=0.023), while MBL was negatively correlated with HOMA-IR ( r=-0.682, P=0.006). Conclusions:Poor glycemic control during pregnancy, Hcy, MBL, TyG index and HOMA-IR are associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes in patients with GDM in the second trimester. Combined detection can predict adverse pregnancy outcomes in patients with GDM in the second trimester early.

Objectives:To explore the cardiac magnetic resonance(CMR)features of early ventricular aneurysm formation in patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction. Methods:One hundred and eight patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction who underwent primary percutaneous coronary intervention and completed CMR scans within two weeks were retrospectively analyzed and divided into non-ventricular aneurysm group(n=72)and ventricular aneurysm group(n=36)according to the absence or presence of early ventricular aneurysm after primary percutaneous coronary intervention.The obtained CMR images were imported into CVI42 software for image analysis,and a logistic regression analysis model was established to evaluate CMR features useful for the diagnosis of early ventricular aneurysm formation. Results:Aging and larger area of late gadolinium enhancement(LGE)and worse left ventricular systolic function and lower myocardial strain were features of patients in the ventricular aneurysm group as compared to the non-ventricular aneurysm group.LGE area(OR=1.32,95%CI:1.071-1.628,P=0.009),apical angle(OR=1.24,95%CI:1.041-1.475,P=0.016),septal mitral annular plane systolic excursion(septal MAPSE,OR=0.36,95%CI:0.169-0.757,P=0.007)and global longitudinal strain(GLS,OR=0.53,95%CI:0.154-0.953,P=0.046)were associated with early ventricular aneurysm formation.ROC curves were analyzed for the above four CMR parameters,and the AUC were 0.922,0.921,0.905,and 0.814,respectively.The optimal cutoff values were 28.5%,90°,8.245 mm,and 10.155%,respectively. Conclusions:Estimation of LGE area,apical angle,septal MAPSE and GLS using CMR technique can help diagnose early ventricular aneurysm in patients with acute anterior myocardial infarction.
