Objective·To investigate the predictive value of the geriatric nutritional risk index(GNRI)for the occurrence of lung infection in hospitalized elderly patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM).Methods·Elderly T2DM patients who were admitted to the Geriatric Department of Shanghai Tongren Hospital between June 2022 and June 2024 were retrospectively and consecutively enrolled.They were divided into infected and non-infected groups according to whether lung infection occurred during hospitalization.Baseline data(gender,age,height,weight,duration of diabetes,comorbidities,etc.)were collected and GNRI was calculated.A multivariate Logistic regression model was used to screen the independent risk factors for pulmonary infections,and the predictive value of GNRI for pulmonary infections in T2DM patients was analysed using receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves.Results·A total of 264 elderly T2DM patients were enrolled,among whom 154 developed pulmonary infections.Significant differences were observed between the infected and non-infected groups in GNRI,albumin,leukocyte count,neutrophil ratio,lymphocyte ratio,glycated hemoglobin,fasting glucose,interleukin-6,C-reactive protein,and procalcitonin levels(P<0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that a lower GNRI was an independent risk factor for lung infection(OR=0.798,95%CI 0.712?0.894;P<0.001).Correlation analysis showed that GNRI was negatively correlated with C-reactive protein and calcitoninogen.ROC curve analysis showed that GNRI predicted pulmonary infection with an area under the curve of 0.828,a sensitivity of 77.9%,and a specificity of 76.6%.Conclusion·A lower GNRI is an independent risk factor for pulmonary infections in elderly T2DM patients,and also has a good predictive value for the occurrence of pulmonary infections.

The tetanus has been eliminated in the pregnancy women and newborns in China. However, there is a gap for adult tetanus immunization, and the risk of tetanus infection cannot be ignored. In order to clearly understand the effect of the tetanus to human beings and the current use of tetanus immunological preparation for adult post-exposure prophylaxis, the incidence of the tetanus, the use status of tetanus immunological preparation and recommendations for post-exposure prophylaxis at home and abroad were reviewed and summarized, which may provide academic evidence for post-exposure prophylaxis procedures and use of tetanus immunological preparation.

【Objective】 To explore the status quo and influencing factors of knowledge, attitude and practice of voluntary blood donation among undergraduates in Beijing. 【Methods】 A questionnaire was designed on the basis of literature, using the method of convenience sampling to survey the undergraduates from 39 universities in Beijing. The t-test, analysis of variance and χ² test were used to compare the differences in knowledge, attitude and practice of voluntary blood donation among different groups, and logistic regression model was performed to analyze the influencing factors. 【Results】 A total of 1 075 valid questionnaires were collected from undergraduates of 39 universities in Beijing. The results showed that the proportion of the participants who had good knowledge about voluntary blood donation was 69.21% (744/1 075). No statistically significant difference was noticed on the scores of voluntary blood donation knowledge between males and females (P>0.05). The scores of voluntary blood donation knowledge of medical students were higher than those of other subjects (P<0.05). The scores of voluntary blood donation knowledge of juniors and above were higher than those of lower grades (P<0.05). The rate of undergraduates participating voluntary blood donation in Beijing was 30.98% (333/1 075). A total of 67.26% (723/1 075) of students had donation intention, 9.49% (102/1 075) didn’t and 23.25% (250/1 075) were not sure. No statistically significant differences in blood donation intention were observed among undergraduates by genders and grades (P>0.05). The rate of medical students’ intention to donate blood was higher than that of other subjects (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 The rate of voluntary blood donation among undergraduates in Beijing was above the middle level compared with other regions in China, but the practice of voluntary blood donation is far away from the intention. Therefore, it’s necessary to improve the level of knowledge, attitude and practice of undergraduates, especially non-medical college students, so as to improve the rate of voluntary blood donation among the undergraduates in Beijing.
