Objective: To analyze population distribution characteristics, routine blood parameters, and independent influencing factors of elevated hemoglobin in overweight red blood cell (RBC) products (suspected polycythemia), and to provide evidence for optimizing pre-donor screening and improving component quality and clinical transfusion safety. Methods: A total of 82 overweight RBC product cases verified by the quality control department from 2021 to 2025 were retrospectively enrolled. Product information, donor demographic data and blood disposal outcomes were statistically described. Correlation analysis and multiple linear regression were performed on 55 samples with complete routine blood test data. Results: Overweight products were mainly leukocyte-filtered suspended red blood cells (70.73%), with 2 U specifications accounting for 56.10%. Most donors were young and middle-aged males (96.34% male, 87.80% aged 18-49 years). Hb, RBC count and Hct in the overweight group were significantly higher than those in the control group (all P<0.001), with strong correlations among the three indicators. History of high-altitude exposure was an independent risk factor for elevated Hb (B=14.517, P=0.020). Higher Hb level was associated with higher discard rates of blood products for clinical use. Conclusion: Overweight RBC products result from synchronous abnormal elevation of Hb, RBC count and Hct among donors. Young and middle-aged males and those with a history high-altitude exposure are high-risk populations. Current donor screening only sets the lower limit of Hb without unified upper limits for RBC-related parameters. Incorporating upper-limit screening for Hb/Hct and standardized inquiry for high-altitude exposure to routine pre-donation assessment may reduce overweight events of RBC products, decrease blood discard rates and enhance transfusion safety. It also offers practical in-sights for implementing the 2026 edition of the Technical Operating Procedures for Blood Stations.

ObjectiveChinese patent medicines for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are diverse and complex in their efficacy. The traditional classification method based on efficacy categories has certain limitations and cannot meet the clinical needs for individualized drug selection and variety comparison. This article， based on the formulation compatibility analysis technology of "Tangye Jingfa Tu"， clarifies the composition and efficacy characteristics of common Chinese patent medicines used for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases， providing support for the precise selection of these medicines. MethodsFifty-six representative Chinese patent medicines， covering all the efficacy subcategories of "stasis-resolving agents" in the National Basic Medical Insurance， Work Injury Insurance， and Maternity Insurance Drug Catalogue （2023） （more than 50% of the total）， were selected for the study. Within the knowledge system of "Tangye Jingfa Tu"， the compatibility structure of herbal flavors and the proportion structure of herbal quantities for each Chinese patent medicine were determined. The correlation between these structures and the efficacy categories was analyzed to identify the similarities and differences among the selected Chinese patent medicines. Additionally， the efficacy was reclassified and compared according to the theoretical framework of tonifying and purging methods of five Zang organs in the "Tangye Jingfa Tu". ResultsThe representative Chinese patent medicines included in the analysis were Shexiang Baoxin pills， Danshen tablets， Qili Qiangxin capsules， Breviscapine tablets， etc.， covering all the efficacy subcategories of "stasis-resolving agents". Among the 56 representative Chinese patent medicines， salty flavor was the most common （48）， followed by pungent （33）， and sweet （26）. According to the dominant herbal flavor， salty flavor was the most common （37）， followed by pungent （9）， and sour （5）. According to the dominant herbal quantity， salty flavor was the most common （27）， followed by sour （7）， and pungent （5）. Furthermore， Chinese patent medicines with different efficacy subtypes showed different flavor characteristics. For example， most Qi-invigorating and blood-activating agents contained sweet drugs for tonifying the spleen （9/10）， most Qi-moving and blood-activating agents contained pungent drugs for tonifying the liver （7/8）， and all kidney-invigorating and blood-activating agents contained bitter drugs for tonifying the kidneys （6/6）. However， the efficacy classification of individual medicines did not always align with the compatibility characteristics of their formulas， as seen with Dengyin Naotong capsules. ConclusionThe formulations of Chinese patent medicines for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases predominantly feature salty， sour， and pungent flavors， which largely conform to the therapeutic principles of "nourishing the heart with salt and soothing the heart with sour" and the liver-heart， heart-spleen mother-child treatment relationship shown in the "Tangye Jingfa Tu". Using the "Tangye Jingfa Tu" framework to conduct research on the structure and efficacy characteristics of Chinese patent medicines is objective and effective.

Under the current situation of "low prevalence and low infection" of schistosomiasis in China, and to provide a basis for achieving the goal of eliminating schistosomiasis by 2030 proposed by the Healthy China Action (2019 - 2030) as scheduled, the Hunan Provincial Corps Hospital of the Chinese People's Armed Police Force established a schistosomiasis monitoring and early warning index system based on the previous studies on schistosomiasis early warning index system and the recent literature analysis, combined with the current potential risk factors affecting the transmission and prevalence of schistosomiasis, and organized two rounds of expert consultation and carried out project promotion meetings. The experts reached a consensus on the comprehensiveness and practicability of the index system, aiming to lay a solid foundation for construction of China's schistosomiasis prevention and control early warning system.

Objective:To explore the safety and long-term efficacy of transvaginal reconstructive pelvic surgery (TVRPS) in ≥70-year-old women with severe pelvic organ prolapse (POP).Methods:A single-center, prospective cohort study was conducted on 343 elderly women patients with severe POP who received TVRPS at the Fourth Medical Center, Chinese PLA General Hospital, Medical School of Chinese PLA from March 2007 to September 2024. There were 297 cases (86.6%, 297/343) of Ⅲ degree and 46 cases (13.4%, 46/343) of Ⅳ degree prolapse respectively. Among them, anterior pelvic prolapse accounted for 80.8% (277/343), and those with prolapse in two or more sites accounted for 30.0% (103/343). The age was (74.2±3.4) years (range: 70 to 89 years old). There were 300 cases (87.5%, 300/343) with more than one internal medicine disease. Preoperative general conditions were assessed using American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status classification system (ASA) and American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program-frailty index (ACS NSQIP-FI). TVRPS surgeries included transvaginal hysterectomy, salpingooophorectomy, high uterosacral ligament suspension, sacrospinous ligament fixation, native tissue and mesh repair of the anterior and posterior vaginal walls, mid-urethral sling for anti-urinary incontinence, and levator anal muscle folding suture and perineal repair. Perioperative complications were evaluated using Clavien-Dindo classification system. The objective effect of TVRPS was determined based on pelvic organ prolapse quantification system (POP-Q), and the subjective results were evaluated using pelvic floor distress inventory-short form 20 (PFDI-20), pelvic floor impact questionnaire-short form 7 (PFIQ-7) and patient global impression of improvement (PGI-I).Results:All patients had a preoperative ASA grade of ≤gradeⅡ, and ACS NSQIP-FI score of ≤0.27. All patients safely and successfully underwent all TVRPS surgeries. The operation time was (154.2±43.2) minutes. The perioperative morbidity and mortality rate were 0.6% (2/343) and 0 (0/343) respectively. None of the patient needed blood transfusion. The follow-up time was (7.5±4.3) years, with the longest being 17 years. Thirty-four cases (9.9%, 34/343) were lost to follow-up, and 22 cases (6.4%, 22/343) died of internal diseases during the follow-up period. The point values of Aa, Ba, C, Ap and Bp in the POP-Q system were significantly decreased after the operation (all P<0.01), the genital hiatus was significantly shortened (all P<0.01), and the perineal body was significantly elongated (all P<0.01). The scores of PFDI-20 and PFIQ-7 were significantly lower than those before the operation (all P<0.01). There were 332 cases (96.8%, 332/343) with an overall symptom impression improvement score of PGI-I≤2. Conclusion:The results on 343 elderly women with severe POP aged an average of 74.2 years show that for elderly POP patients who still have the desire to preserve the vagina and do not meet the conditions for colpocleisis, as long as there is a comprehensive understanding and strict evaluation of the overall condition before the operation, TVRPS is a safe, feasible and long-lasting therapeutic procedure.

Targeted covalent inhibitors,primarily targeting cysteine residues,have attracted great attention as potential drug candidates due to good potency and prolonged duration of action.However,their dis-covery is challenging.In this research,a database-assisted liquid chromatography-tandem mass spec-trometry(LC-MS/MS)strategy was developed to quickly discover potential cysteine-targeting compounds.First,compounds with potential reactive groups were selected and incubated with N-acetyl-cysteine in microsomes.And the precursor ions of possible cysteine-adducts were predicted based on covalent binding mechanisms to establish in-house database.Second,substrate-independent product ions produced from N-acetyl-cysteine moiety were selected.Third,multiple reaction monitoring scan was conducted to achieve sensitive screening for cysteine-targeting compounds.This strategy showed broad applicability,and covalent compounds with diverse structures were screened out,offering structural resources for covalent inhibitors development.Moreover,the screened compounds,norket-amine and hydroxynorketamine,could modify synaptic transmission-related proteins in vivo,indicating their potential as covalent inhibitors.This experimental-based screening strategy provides a quick and reliable guidance for the design and discovery of covalent inhibitors.
