Objective: To analyze the causes and distribution characteristics of leukopenia in apheresis platelet donors, and to formulate effective pre-donation intervention measures. Methods: The data of apheresis platelet donors with leukopenia in Dongguan Central Blood Station during the entire year of 2021 were collected. Combined with the results of peripheral blood smear examination, the related factors that may cause leukopenia were analyzed. Results: There were 57 apheresis platelet donors with leukopenia in peripheral blood, with an incidence of 1.53% (57/3 726). The rate of leukopenia showed no significant difference between male and female apheresis platelet donors (χ =0.627, P>0.05), and was not related to the frequency of platelet donation (χ =1.48, P>0.05). However, there were statistically significant differences in the rate of leukopenia across seasons (χ =10.13, P<0.05), highly significant differences among different age groups (χ =22.98, P<0.001), and a significant association with the number of apheresis platelet donations (χ =7.80, P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age (36-55 years old), number of donations (≥26 times), and season (first and fourth quarters) were independent risk factors for leukopenia in apheresis platelet donors, while gender had no significant independent effect on leukopenia. Peripheral blood smear examination was performed on all apheresis platelet donors with leukopenia, and primary malignant hematological diseases infiltrated into peripheral blood were excluded. Among them, two cases of peripheral blood smear showed left shift of granulocyte nucleus with increased and thickened granules, whereas the other 55 cases only showed decreased peripheral blood nucleated cell counts without obvious morphological abnormalities. Conclusion: Leukopenia in apheresis platelet donors mainly occurred in young and middle-aged people and those with ≥26 donations, with high incidence in winter and spring, and more common in males. Blood routine examination combined with blood smear examination can facilitate the detection of conditions that are not suitable for blood donation, including hematological malignant diseases and infection-related leukopenia. Strengthening health consultation before blood donation is an important measure to identify blood donors with leukopenia.

Objective: To identify the mimicking autoantibodies using papain-enhanced erythrocyte agglutination in a case of repeated red blood cell transfusion refractoriness, aiming to explore the immune hematological methods for identifying mimicking alloantibodies, autoantibodies and alloantibodies, and to develop a safe and effective blood transfusion strategy based on the results. Methods: ABO, RhD and RhEeCc blood groups were detected using routine blood group serological method. The unexpected antibodies in plasma were screened and identified, followed by identification using a two-step papain-treated indirect antiglobulin test (enzyme-IAT). The cause of transfusion refractoriness of red blood cells was analyzed and summarized, and the prognosis was followed up. Results: The patient's blood type was type A, CCDee. The direct antiglobulin test (DAT) was positive. Unexpected antibody screening and identification using saline tube method, polybrene method, IAT were negative, and the release fluid (acid release) IAT identification was negative. Mimicking anti-e antibodies in plasma was identified by enzyme-ITA. The cause of red blood cell transfusion refractoriness in patients was autoimmune hemolysis caused by mimicking anti-e antibodies. After choosing to avoid antibodies corresponding to antigen-positive red blood cells, the patient's hemoglobin (Hb) increase value is in line with theoretical expectations, indicating effective red blood cell transfusion. Conclusion: Mimicking antibodies can cause immune destruction of red blood cells by non-specific binding to their own red blood cells and specific binding to red blood cells, resulting in red blood cell transfusion refractoriness.

Objective: To evaluate the impact of comprehensive nursing based on the behavioral goal attainment model on the clinical intervention effect among elderly female patients with stress urinary incontinence (SUI), so as to provide a basis for optimizing the nursing strategies for patients with SUI and improving their quality of life. Methods: A total of 190 elderly female patients with SUI who were treated in the Department of Gynecology of the First Hospital of Jilin University from January 2023 to August 2024 were selected and randomly divided into the intervention group and the control group. The control group received routine nursing care, while the intervention group received comprehensive nursing based on the behavioral goal attainment model. The 1-hour pad test was used to assess urinary incontinence symptoms. The bio-electrical stimulation feedback instrument was employed to detect the electromyogram (EMG) values in the pre-resting stage and slow-muscle stage for evaluating pelvic floor function. The bladder function scale was utilized to evaluate bladder function. The Chinese version of urinary incontinence ego-efficacy rating scales and incontinence quality of life assessment scale (IQOL) were used to assess self-efficacy and quality of life. The data on intervention compliance and nursing satisfaction were collected by a questionnaire survey. The differences between the two groups before and after the intervention were compared using the analysis of variance for repeated-measures data to evaluate the intervention effect. Results: There were 95 cases in the control group and 95 cases in the intervention group, with median ages were 64.00 (interquartile range, 23.50) and 64.50 (interquartile range, 19.50) years, respectively. The proportion of patients with cesarean section as the last delivery method was 21.05% in the control group and 12.63% in the intervention group. The proportion of patients with moderate disease severity was 67.36% in the control group and 58.95% in the intervention group. There were no statistically significant differences in age, body mass index, number of pregnancies, number of deliveries, marital status, educational level, mode of last delivery and severity of the disease between the two groups of patients (all P>0.05). The analysis of variance of repeated-measures data showed that there were significant interactions between time and group for the urine leakage volume in the 1-hour pad test, the EMG values in the pre-resting stage, the EMG values in the slow-muscle stage, the scores of the bladder function, the self-efficacy scores, and the IQOL scores (all P<0.05). After 12 weeks of intervention, the EMG values in the slow-muscle stage, the scores of the bladder function, the self-efficacy scores, the IQOL scores in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group, while the urine leakage volume in the 1-hour pad test and the EMG values in the pre-resting stage in the intervention group were lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05). The good compliance rate of intervention and the satisfaction rate of nursing in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group (83.16% vs. 60.00%, 90.53% vs. 75.79%, both P<0.05). Conclusion Comprehensive nursing based on the behavioral goal attainment model can improve urinary incontinence symptoms, pelvic floor function, bladder function, self-efficacy, quality of life, and intervention compliance of elderly female patients with SUI.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and pulmonary hypertension (PH) are both chronic progressive respiratory diseases that cannot be completely cured. COPD is characterized by irreversible airflow limitation, chronic airway inflammation, and gradual decline in lung function, whereas PH is characterized by pulmonary vasoconstriction, remodeling, and infiltration of inflammatory cells. These diseases have similar pathological features, such as vascular hyperplasia, arteriolar contraction, and inflammatory infiltration. Despite these well-documented observations, the exact mechanisms underlying the occurrence and development of COPD and PH remain unclear. Evidence that mitochondrial dynamics imbalance is one major factor in the development of COPD and PH. Mitochondrial dynamics is precisely regulated by mitochondrial fusion proteins and fission proteins. When mitochondrial dynamics equilibrium is disrupted, it causes mitochondrial and even cell morphological dysfunction. Mitochondrial dynamics participates in various pathological processes for heart and lung disease. Mitochondrial dynamics may be different in the early and late stages of COPD and PH. In the early stages of the disease, mitochondrial fusion increases, inhibiting fission, and thereby compensatorily increasing adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production. With the development of the disease, mitochondria decompensation causes excessive fission. Mitochondrial dynamics is involved in the development of COPD and PH in a spatiotemporal manner. Based on this understanding, treatment strategies for mitochondrial dynamics abnormalities may be different at different stages of COPD and PH disease. This article will provide new ideas for the potential treatment of related diseases.

Direct antiglobulin test (DAT), also known as Coomb's test, is a method used in blood immunology to detect whether the surface of red blood cells is sensitized by immunoglobulin or complement. It is mainly used in the diagnosis of autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA), neonatal hemolytic anemia, hemolytic transfusion reaction and blood matching during blood transfusion. DAT positive has always been the focus of researchers, because it has an important impact on the efficacy of blood transfusion. In recent years, there has been extensive research on the identification of DAT positivity types and the distribution characteristics of diseases in clinical patients, and the study on hemolytic disease of the newborn has also been popular. However, the transfusion safety of DAT-positive blood donors has been a hot topic in the field of blood transfusion for many years. Moreover, there is no clear requirement from the state on the handling of DAT-positive blood and whether DAT-positive blood donors should be deferred from donation. Therefore, this article reviews the serological studies on DAT immunotyping and IgG subtype typing of voluntary blood donors, as well as the impact of DAT-positive blood on blood transfusion safety, in order to provide references for the blood issuance strategy of DAT-positive blood and whether DAT-positive blood donors should be deferred.

Cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36) is a highly glycosylated double transmembrane glycoprotein, which is involved in the inflammatory response and immune regulation of the body. It plays a key role in mediating the mechanism of immune-related blood transfusion reactions and regulating the function of immune cells. It has an important impact on blood transfusion safety and has become a current research hotspot. This article reviews and comprehensively analyzes the research progress of the specific role of CD36 in the immune response of blood transfusion and its regulatory mechanism at home and abroad. Combined with clinical cases and experimental data, the pathophysiological mechanism of CD36 in immune response and its immune-mediated blood transfusion safety issues are reviewed. It is expected to provide new theoretical support and practical guidance for the field of blood transfusion safety and promote the further development of blood transfusion medicine.

In 2022， Hainan provincial government launched the project for the prevention and control of viral hepatitis with the goals of a hepatitis B screening rate of 90%， a diagnostic rate of 90%， and a treatment rate of 80% among people aged 18 years and above by the year 2025， and the main intervention measures include population-based prevention， case screening， antiviral therapy， and health management. As of December 31， 2024， a total of 6.875 million individuals in the general population had been screened for hepatitis B， with a screening rate of 95.6%. A total of 184 710 individuals with positive HBsAg were identified， among whom 156 772 were diagnosed through serological reexamination， resulting in a diagnostic rate of 84.9%. A total of 50 742 patients with chronic hepatitis B were identified， among whom 42 921 had hepatitis B-specific health records established for health management， with a file establishment rate of 84.6%. A total of 31 553 individuals received antiviral therapy， with a treatment rate of 62.2%. A total of 2.503 million individuals at a high risk of hepatitis C were screened， among whom 4 870 tested positive for HCV antibody and 3 858 underwent HCV RNA testing， resulting in a diagnostic rate of 79.2%， and 1 824 individuals with positive HCV RNA were identified， among whom 1 194 received antiviral therapy， with a treatment rate of 65.5%. In addition， 159 301 individuals with negative HBsAg and anti-HBs and an age of 20 — 40 years were inoculated with hepatitis B vaccine free of charge. Through the implementation of the project for the prevention and control of viral hepatitis， a large number of hepatitis patients have been identified， treated， and managed in the province within a short period of time， which significantly accelerates the efforts to eliminate the crisis of viral hepatitis.

Aim To evaluate the tyrosine nitration modification of specific proteins in vascular endothelial cells and its impact on mitochondria-mediated apoptosis.Methods Human umbilical vein endothelial cells were cultured in vitro and divided into three groups:control group(treatment with dimethyl sulfoxide),3-morphansulam(SIN-1)group,and SIN-1+Fe(Ⅲ)5,10,15,20-(tetraphenyl)porphyrin(FeTPP)group.After 24 h,the levels of hexokinase 1(HK1)nitration modification,mitochondrial membrane potential,reactive oxygen species(ROS)production,and endothelial cell proliferation and apoptosis were assessed.A human umbilical vein endothelial cell line knockout of HK1 was constructed using gene editing technology,and its proliferation and apoptosis levels were detected.Results After treatment of hu-man umbilical vein endothelial cells with peroxynitrite generator SIN-1,the level of HK1 protein nitration modification sig-nificantly increased(P＜0.01),reactive oxygen species production significantly increased,mitochondrial membrane poten-tial significantly decreased,endothelial cell proliferation ability significantly decreased,and endothelial cell apoptosis level significantly increased(all P＜0.01).Peroxynitrite decomposition catalyst FeTPP could reverse the above effect(P＜0.01).In addition,HK1 gene knockout also exhibited similar antioxidant effects,with a significant decrease in endothe-lial cell proliferation ability and a significant increase in apoptosis levels(P＜0.01).Conclusion Peroxynitrite can induce an increase in the level of nitration modification of HK1 in vascular endothelial cells,which may be achieved by pro-moting the production of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species,thereby accelerating the process of endothelial cell apoptosis.

Objective To investigate the interference of varying degrees of lipemia on serum lithium(Li)measurement using the phosphatase method and explore effective mitigation strategies.Methods A pooled sample of severe lipemic serum without lithium was collected and concentrated to obtain lipemic serum concentrate.A pooled serum sample from patients with normal lipid levels taking lithium carbonate was used for triglyceride(TG)interference experiments.Additionally,28 serum samples from patients not taking lithium carbonate were collected.Based on the results of TG interference experiments,the maximum TG concentration that did not interfere with serum lithium measurement was determined as the target concentration for dilution,and the corresponding dilution factor was calculated.Lithium solution was added to each sample to determine the theoretical lithium concentration.Samples were divided into three groups and analyzed using direct detection,physiological saline dilution,and high-speed centrifugation(13 000 r/min,10 min).The results obtained from different methods were compared.Results Lipemic serum with TG concentrations>4.77mmol/L interfered with lithium measurement by the phosphatase method.The physiological saline dilution method showed the largest deviation(t=10.87,P<0.000 1)and significant differences from theoretical values,making it unsuitable for accurate measurement.In contrast,the high-speed centrifugation method provided results closest to the theoretical values(t=2.97,P=0.036 9)with higher accuracy.Although the direct detection method was highly correlated with the high-speed centrifugation method(r=0.976 5,P<0.000 1),with a significant mean difference remained(t=5.37,P<0.000 1).Conclusion For lipemic serum samples with TG concentrations>4.77mmol/L,the physiological saline dilution method should be avoided due to its inaccuracy.High-speed centrifugation effectively removes lipemic interference,yielding results closer to theoretical values,and is recommended as the optimized method for serum lithium measurement in lipemic samples.

Objective To explore the function of electroacupuncture(EA)on body mass,fasting blood glucose,heat pain threshold,and transient receptor potential vanilloid 4(TRPV4)in the dorsal root ganglia(DRG)of rats with diabetic neuropathic pain(DNP).Methods A DNP rat model was formed by intraperitoneally injecting the animals with STZ.From days 15 to 21,bilateral Zusanli and Kunlun points of the DNP rat model were treated with electroacupuncture once daily for 30 min.We then measured their body mass,fasting blood glucose,and heat pain threshold.The co-expression of TRPV4 and NeuN in the rat L4～L6 DRG was detected by immunofluorescence.The effects of the TRPV4 agonist GSK1016790A on body mass,fasting blood glucose,and the heat pain threshold of DNP rats treated with electroacupuncture were detected.Results After the 7th day,body mass was significantly decreased(P<0.01)and fasting glucose was significantly increased(P<0.01)in the model group compared with the normal group.After the 21st day,compared with the model group,heat pain threshold of the model+electroacupuncture group was significantly higher(P<0.01);the results of co-expression of TRPV4 and NeuN immunofluorescence on rat L4～L6 DRG showed that:the expression of positive cells in the model group was significantly higher(P<0.01)than that in the normal group,the co-expression of TRPV4 and NeuN positive cells in L4～L6 DRG of rats in the model+electroacupuncture group was significantly lower(P<0.01)than that in the model group.The TRPV4 agonist GSK1016790A can reverse the downregulation of thermal pain threshold induced by electroacupuncture in DNP rats(P<0.01).Conclusion Electroacupuncture alleviated the DNP induced by STZ,and its mechanism may involve the inhibition of TRPV4 protein expression in the DRG.
