Objective: To investigate the prevalence of Dengue virus (DENV) infection among voluntary blood donors in Xishuangbanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture, and to evaluate the necessity of implementing nucleic acid testing (NAT) for blood donors during the rainy season (May-October). Methods: Prior to initiating donor screening, the Xishuangbanna Central Blood Center conducted in-house validation of reagent performance and participated in external quality assessment (EQA) organized by the National Center for Clinical Laboratories (NCCL). During the surveillance period (August-October 2024), a total of 2 919 donor samples were screened using a 6-sample mini-pool NAT strategy. Daily internal quality controls were recorded. Samples that tested positive in pooled screening were deconvoluted and retested in duplicate; only those reactive in both replicate wells were sent to the NCCL for confirmatory testing. At NCCL, samples underwent re-testing using five domestic NAT reagents, as well as serological assays for NS1 antigen and DENV-specific IgG/IgM. Confirmed positive samples were further characterized by serotyping, envelope (E) gene sequencing, and phylogenetic analysis using the maximum likelihood method. Results: The DENV NAT reagent demonstrated consistent detection of 40 copies/mL controls in individual donor (ID)-NAT test (mean CT: 35.61±0.40). During the 63-day quality control monitoring, DENV detection remained stable (mean CT: 22.53±0.72). The center achieved full marks in EQA assessments for 2023 and 2024. Three reactive pools were identified in initial screening, and subsequent individual testing confirmed three DENV RNA-positive donors (sample numbers: 2401, 2402, and 2403). The confirmatory test results from NCCL were: all five NAT platforms consistently detected DENV RNA in the three samples; for serological tests, 2 samples (2402, 2403) were positive for NS1 antigen, while all three samples were negative for both IgG and IgM antibodies. DENV serotyping reagents identified DENV-2 in all cases, which were further confirmed as DENV-2 Genotype Ⅱ-Cosmopolitan by E gene sequencing. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that samples 2401 and 2402 clustered with Southeast Asian strains (Thailand/MZ636802.1, Laos/PQ775621.1), while sample 2403 closely matched a previously reported local Yunnan strain (PV544686.1). Conclusion: DENV-2 infection was detected among blood donors in Xishuangbanna during the rainy season, indicating concurrent risks of imported and local transmission. We recommend implementing pooled NAT screening for blood donors in high-risk areas during dengue epidemic seasons, along with strengthened laboratory quality control, to enhance blood safety.

Objective:To analyze the clinical and genetic characteristics of children diagnosed with Noonan-syndrome associated with loose anagen hair (NS-LAH).Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 5 children diagnosed with NS-LAH by the Endocrinology Department of the Capital Institute of Pediatrics from January 2018 to June 2024. This analysis encompassed the patients′ demographic information, clinical manifestations, distinguishing features, treatment regimens, and prognostic outcomes to elucidate their clinical characteristics. Additionally, whole-exome sequencing and Sanger sequencing were utilized to investigate the genetic etiology within the families, and the identified variations were interpreted according to the guidelines of the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics.Results:Among the 5 NS-LAH patients, there were 3 boys and 2 girls, with ages at diagnosis ranging from 2.3 to 7.7 years old. All patients presented with short stature as a primary complaint. Birth histories were generally unremarkable, though case 2 and 5 of macrosomia were noted. In addition to the characteristic facial features of Noonan syndrome, short stature, and varying degrees of intellectual and motor developmental delay, all 5 patients exhibited sparse hair that was easily shed, as well as enlarged head circumferences. Four patients showed structural cardiac abnormalities, which included a case of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, 2 cases of atrial septal defect, and 1 case of patent foramen ovale. Genetic analysis revealed heterozygous missense variantion in SHOC2 gene in 4 patients, comprising 3 cases with c.4A>G (p.S2G) and one case with c.519G>C (p.M173I). Additionally, one patient was found to have a heterozygous missense variantion c.146C>G (p.P49R) in PPP1CB gene. Three children were diagnosed with growth hormone deficiency and treated with growth hormone for 1.7, 2.7 and 0.5 years. This resulted in significant improvements in height, with annual increases of 11.8, 8.4 and 13.0 cm, respectively. Among the 4 patients with SHOC2 variantions, 2 developed systemic lupus erythematosus and 1 exhibited symptoms of arthritis.Conclusions:Growth failure is the primary complaint in patients with NS-LAH. Key characteristic findings include enlarged head circumference and sparse, loose hair. Growth hormone deficiency is commonly associated with NS-LAH, and growth hormone therapy is generally effective. Furthermore, patients carrying the classic variantion in SHOC2 (c.4A>G) may have an increased risk of developing autoimmune diseases.

Objective To investigate the changes of serum thyroxine level in obstructive sleep apnea-hy-popnea syndrome(OSAHS) patients and to assess the role of serum thyroxine in the development of OSAHS. Meth-ods Polysomnography was used to examine the patients with OSAHS and fasting plasma serum thyroxine level were higher in obese OSAHS patients than in obese controls[ (43.56±3.48)cm vs (38.33±3.08)cm,t =4. 258,P < 0.05 ], in non-obese OSAHS patients than in non-obese control group [ (40.50±1.05 )cm vs (36.17±3.13 )cm, t = 3. 146 ,P < 0.05 ] . The levels of FT3 was (6.35±3.15 ) pmol/L in obese OSAHS patients and ( 4.08±2.37 ) pmol/L in control subjects ( t = 2.203 ,P < 0.05 ). That was ( 3.42±0.57 ) pmol/L in non-obese OSAHS patients related with AHI and microarousal index (r = 0. 500, P < 0.05;r = 0.561, P < 0.05 ), and FT4 was also positively with neck circumference( t = 0.489, P < 0.05 ), TSH level was negatively correlated with neck circumference ( t = - 0.500, P < 0.05 ) and was positively correlated with the percentage of body fat ( r = 0.498, P < 0.05 ). Conclu-sions The FT3 levels are significantly higher in the OSAHS patients than that in control subjects, though all FT3 lev-els are normal, suggesting that there are possibility to have abnormal metabolism. At the same time, FT3 level is posi-tively correlated with neck circumference ,suggesting that the OSAHS patients' higher neck circumference is correla-ted with thyroxine.
