[Objective] To explore the effectiveness of applying the PDCA (Plan-Do-Check-Act) cycle to enhance the compatibility rate of five Rh blood group antigen phenotypes between donors and recipients across multiple hospital campuses. [Methods] Clinical blood transfusion data from May to July 2022 were selected. Specific improvement measures were formulated based on the survey results, and the PDCA cycle management model was implemented from August 2022. The post-intervention phase spanned from August 2022 to October 2023. The Rh phenotype compatibility rate, the detection rate of Rh system antibodies, and the proportion of Rh system antibodies among unexpected antibodies were compared between the pre-intervention phase (May to July 2022) and the post-intervention phase. [Results] After the continuous improvement with the PDCA cycle, the compatibility rate for the five Rh blood group antigen phenotypes between donors and recipients from August to October 2023 reached 81.90%, significantly higher than the 70.54% recorded during the pre-intervention phase (May to July 2022, P<0.01), and displayed a quarterly upward trend (β=0.028, P<0.05). The detection rate of Rh blood group system antibodies (β=-9.839×10^-5, P<0.05) and its proportion among all detected antibodies (β=-0.022, P<0.05) showed a quarterly decreasing trend, both demonstrating a negative correlation with the enhanced compatibility rate (r values of -0.981 and -0.911, respectively; P<0.05). [Conclusion] The implementation of targeted measures through the PDCA cycle can effectively increase the compatibility rate of five Rh blood group antigen phenotypes between donors and recipients, reduce the occurrence of unexpected Rh blood group antibodies, thereby lowering the risk of transfusion and enhancing the quality and safety of medical care.

Objective: To summarize the laboratory findings of a case of hemolytic disease of the fetus and newborn (HDFN) caused by Rh system anti-c antibodies and to review the literature, so as to explore the characteristics of anti-c HDFN. Methods: The ABO blood type, Rh blood type, direct antiglobulin test (DAT) results, and the presence of unexpected antibodies and their titers were determined by serological methods. The cases of anti-c HDFN in our laboratory in China and abroad were statistically analyzed, and the incidence of severe HDFN caused by anti-c, anti-D and anti-E was compared. Results: The blood type of the child was B (Rh CcDee) with a positive DAT. Anti-c antibody was detected in both serum and eluate, with a serum antibody titer of 4. The mother’s blood type was AB (Rh CCDee) with a negative DAT, and anti-c antibody was detected in the serum with a titer of 128. Among 20 cases of anti-c HDFN, 17 were DAT positive, and 9 (45%, 9/20) underwent blood transfusion or exchange transfusion. The incidence of severe HDFN was 47.60% (10/21) for anti-c, 47.60% (10/21) for anti-D and 31.30% (5/16) for anti-E. Conclusion: Maternal pregnancy and/or blood transfusion are the main reasons for the production of Rh alloantibodies such as anti-c. The prevention and management of anti-c should be similar to that of anti-D. Rh antigen-matched (five antigens of Rh blood group) transfusion is necessary for women of childbearing age to avoid antibody production, and Rh typing and antibody screening during prenatal examination is recommended to ensure early detection, intervention and treatment.

Objective To investigate the value of 18F labeled prostate-specific membrane antigen(18F-PSMA)-1007 developing agent PET/CT(18F-PSMA-1007PET/CT)examination in the diagnostic evaluation and therapeutic decision of the newly diagnosed prostate cancer(PCa)and follow up after radical prostatecto-my(RP).Methods This study adopted the retrospective observational study method.A total of 68 patients receiving 18 F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT examination in this hospital from September 2022 to October 2023 were analyzed,including 36 cases of newly diagnosed PCa and 32 cases of biochemistry follow up failure after RP.A total of 30 items of clinical data were collected,including 8 items of basic clinical characteristics,7 items of pa-thology-related characteristics and 15 items of imaging characteristics.The patients clinical characteristics in the newly diagnosed PCa and biochemical failure after RP conducted the descriptive analysis.The Fisher exact probability method was used to analyze the differentiation of the SUVmax of primary lesions in different clini-cal subgroups[different tPSA levels at diagnosis,different mi-T stages,different Gleason scores at postopera-tive pathological puncture and different pathological types]in the newly diagnosed PCa group and the differ-entiation of recurrent lesion detection rates in different clinical subgroups(different tPSA in 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT examination,different pathological T stages,different lymph node invasion and different pathological Gleason scores in the biochemical failure after RP group.The Spearman correlation was adopted to test and analyze the correlation between the imaging features of positive lesions and tPSA.Results In the newly diag-nosed PCa group,there were 1 case of prostatic hyperplasia and 35 cases of PCa.SUVmax had no statistical differences among the primary lesions with different tPSA levels(P=0.81),different mi-T stages(P=0.70),different puncture Glleasonscores(P=0.20)and different pathological types(P=0.71).Moreover the tPSA value at diagnosis was positively correlated with the number of metastatic lesions(r=0.410,P=0.01).The clinical treatment decisions in 11 cases(31.43％)were changed according to the examination re-sults.In 9 cases of RP combined with lymph node dissection,the accuracy rate and concordance rate of 18F-PS-MA-1007 PET/CT and MRI in the lymph node detection rate all were 100％.I n the biochemical failure after RP group,the overall recurrent lesion detection rate was 71.88％(23/32),the operative area in situ recurrence(11 cases,34.38％)and bone metastasis(11 cases,34.38％)were most common.The differences of 18F-PS-MA-1007 PET/CT recurrent lesions detection rates had no statistical differences among the patients with dif-ferent tPSA levels(P=0.08),different pathological T stages(P=0.10),different postoperative pathological lymph node invasions(P=0.68)and different pathologic Gleason score in the 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT ex-amination.In the 18 F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT examination in the biochemical failure after RP,the tPSA value in the recurrent lesion was positively correlated with the number of recurrent lesions(r=0.48,P=0.01),SUVmax value in the recurrent lesion(r=0.46,P=0.01)and the SUVmean value(r=0.38,P=0.03).The clinical treatment decision in 18 cases(56.25％)was changed according to the examination results.Conclusion 18 F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT has good diagnostic value and efficiency for primary lesion and metastasis lesion of new-ly diagnosed PCa and recurrent foci of biochemical failure after RP.

Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics and spatial distribution characteristics of Clonorchis sinensis human infections in Guangdong Province from 2016 to 2022, so as to provide insights into formulation of the clonorchiasis control measures in the province. Methods Xinhui District of Jiangmen City, Longmen County of Huizhou City and Wengyuan County of Shaoguan City in Guangdong Province were selected as fixed surveillance sites for human clonorchiasis from 2016 to 2022, and additional 10% to 15% counties (districts) endemic for clonorchiasis were sampled from Guangdong Province as mobile surveillance sites each year from 2016 to 2022. A village (community) was randomly selected from each surveillance site according to the geographical orientations of east, west, south, north and middle, and subjects were randomly sampled from each village (community). C. sinensis eggs were detected in subjects’ stool samples using the Kato-Katz technique, and the prevalence and intensity of C. sinensis infections were calculated. In addition, subjects’ gender, age, ethnicity, educational level and occupation were collected. The Guangdong Provincial 1:1 million electronic map in vector format was downloaded from the National Geomatics Center of China, and kernel density analysis and spatial autocorrelation analysis of C. sinensis human infections in Guangdong Province from 2016 to 2022 were performed using the software ArcGIS 10.7. Results A total of 153 188 residents were tested for C. sinensis infections in Guangdong Province from 2016 to 2022, including 75 596 men (49.35%) and 77 592 women (50.65%), and there were 5 369 residents infected with C. sinensis, with 3.50% overall prevalence of infections. The prevalence rates of severe, moderate and mild C. sinensis infections were 0.76%, 7.26% and 91.97% among C. sinensis-infected residents in Guangdong Province from 2016 to 2022, and there were age-, gender-, ethnicity-, occupation- and educational level-specific prevalence of C. sinensis human infections (χ² = 2 578.31, 637.33, 52.22, 2 893.28 and 1 139.33, all P values < 0.05). Global spatial autocorrelation analysis showed a cluster in the prevalence of C. sinensis human infections in Guangdong Province (Moran’s I = 0.63, Z = 27.31, P < 0.05). Kernel density analysis showed that the prevalence of C. sinensis human infections with a high kernel density in Guangdong Province was mainly distributed along the Zhujiang River basin in Pearl River Delta areas, followed by in eastern and northern Guangdong Province. In addition, local spatial autocorrelation analysis identified 73 high-high clusters of the prevalence of C. sinensis human infections in Guangdong Province. Conclusions The prevalence of C. sinensis human infections was high in Guangdong Province from 2016 to 2022, and mild infection was predominant among all clonorchiasis cases, with spatial clusters identified in the prevalence of C. sinensis human infections. Targeted clonorchiasis control measures are required among high-risk populations and areas.

Objective To analyse the characteristics of spatial distribution of bed resources and bed utilization efficiency of various types of medical and health institutions in Guangxi Province in 2018-2022,and to provide a reference basis for the allocation and management of bed resources of various types of medical and health institutions.Methods Spatial autocorrelation was used to analyse the status of bed allocation in various types of medical and health institutions,and the bed efficiency index and bed utilisation model were used to evaluate the efficiency of bed utilisation.Results Bed resources per 1 000 population vary considerably across types of healthcare organisations and regions.There is no spatial correlation in the overall distribution of bed resources per 1 000 population,but there are different types of aggregation,and there will be little change in the type of aggregation and the place of aggregation from 2018 to 2022.In terms of utilisation efficiency,the bed efficiency index of maternity and child healthcare hospitals is the highest,the bed efficiency index of specialist disease prevention and treatment hospitals(institutes and stations)is the lowest,general hospitals and maternity and child healthcare hospitals are operating at high efficiency,and all other healthcare institutions are operating at low efficiency;the utilisation of bed resources in various types of healthcare institutions exists in the form of efficiency-type,turn-around-type,bed-pressure-type,and unused-type hospitals at the same time.Conclusion There is an imbalance in the allocation of bed resources in various types of medical and health institutions,with large differences in the operational and utilisation efficiencies of beds;the allocation of bed resources should be continuously optimised.
