Objective To explore the factors that affect the coordinated development of blood banks and apheresis plas-ma collection banks(hereinafter referred to as plasma banks),and explore feasible measures for the coordinated develop-ment of blood banks and plasma banks.Methods The blood information management system and blood source information management system were used to retrieve related data of blood and plasma donation from 9 cities in Shandong province from 2017 to 2021.The number of blood donors and plasma donors and the intersection of them were analyzed.The data analysis was performed using chi-square test,and a questionnaire survey was conducted to investigate the policies and information status,as well as expectations for coordinated development for blood and plasma donation.Results From 2017 to 2021,the total number of blood donors in 9 cities was higher than that of plasma donors,both have been increasing year by year,and the increase in plasma donors was significantly higher than that of blood donors(131.78%vs 23.90%,P<0.05).The inter-section proportion of blood and plasma donors had increased from 0.45%in 2017 to 1.04%in 2021,with an increase of 131.11%.Among the administrative regions where the participating blood and plasma banks located,94.2%have not re-leased relevant policy to promote the coordinated development of blood and plasma donation.The majority(63%)expected blood banks and plasma banks to be set at a distance more than 50 km apart.The top four functional requirements for the in-terconnection between blood banks and plasma banks management information system were blood test results(94.61%),ID number(87.54%),blood and plasma donation records(85.51%)and health consultation/examination results(82.15%).The top four elements of coordinated development between blood and plasma banks were policy support(96.25%),informa-tion networking(92.36%),top-level design(87.44%)and cultural construction(86.58%).Conclusion The number of donors who donate both blood(mainly whole blood)and plasma has been increasing year by year,which deserves our close attention.To achieve the coordinated development of blood donation and plasma donation,policy support is the most crucial and fundamental means.Establishment of a standard system and the share of blood and plasma donation information is neces-sary for blood informatization construction.It was critical to promote the coordinated development of blood and plasma dona-tion and ensure blood safety with improving legislation,formulating policies for coordinated development,strengthening top-level design,standardizing the publicity of blood and plasma donation and establishing the idea that blood and plasma dona-tion are equally honorable.

The causes of obstructive azoospermia are complex, mostly permanent, and it is very rare to return to normal without medication or surgery. This article analyzes the changes in the course of a patient with obstructive azoospermia without surgery and medication and the delayed return to normal sperm density. The reasons for its self-recovery: it might be related to asymptomatic epididymitis and ejaculatory duct cysts. The possibility of self-recovery in patients with obstructive azoospermia due to specific etiologies.

【Objective】 To evaluate the effect of Arntl on T cell development and T cell-mediated anti-viral immunity. 【Methods】 Arntl^F/FCD4cre⁺(KO) in mice was constructed to delete Arntl gene specifically in T cells. We examined the percentage and number of T cell subsets in the thymus and spleen by flow cytometry (FCM). At day 8 after lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infection, the proportions of T cell subsets, virus-specific CD8⁺ T cells and IFN-γ secreting T cells were analyzed. The viral load in the spleen was measured using qPCR. Naive CD4⁺ T cells (CD4⁺CD25^-CD44^-CD62L⁺) were sorted by flow cytometry to perform T helper cell differentiation in vitro. 【Results】 The percentage and number of T cells in the thymus and spleen of KO mice showed no significant change compared with those in the control group (Arntl^F/FCD4cre^- mice, WT) (P>0.05). Acute LCMV infection did not cause observable changes in effector T cell proportion in the spleen of KO mice compared to that in WT mice (P>0.05), but KO mice showed a higher proportion of IFN-γ secreting T cells (P<0.05) and better virus clearance (P<0.05). In addition, naive CD4⁺ T cells from KO mice were more prone to differentiate into Th1 cells in vitro (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Arntl deletion in T cells does not affect T cell development, but enhances their ability to defend against viral infection by promoting Th1 cell differentiation and response.

Objective:To investigate the effect of treatment with orchiopexy at different ages on the clinical outcomes of nonobstructive azoospermia (NOA) patients with a history of cryptorchidism who underwent microdissection testicular sperm extraction (microTESE) combined with intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI).Methods:NOA patients undergoing microTESE combined with ICSI from December 2013 to August 2019 in the ICSI treatment cycle in Assisted Reproduction Center of Northwest Women and Children's Hospital were collected in this retrospective cohort study. According to the history of cryptorchidism, the patients were divided into cryptorchidism group and non-cryptorchidism group. The sperm retrieval rates (SRRs) were assessed between these two groups. Then, based on the timing of treatment with orchiopexy, the NOA patients with orchidopexy were subdivided into prepubertal group and pubertal-postpubertal group. The SRRs and the pregnancy outcomes were also assessed.Results:There were 34 NOA patients with cryptorchidism and 604 NOA patients without cryptorchidism underwent microTESE. The SRRs in NOA patients with or without cryptorchidism were 85.3% (29/34) and 40.2% (243/604), respectively. The differences were statistically significant ( P<0.001). In the prepubertal surgery group, sperm was detected in 17 cases, while in the pubertal-postpubertal surgery group, the sperm was detected in 12 cases. The differences were statistically significant ( P=0.044). The total clinical pregnancy rate of cryptorchidism NOA patients treated with ICSI was 65.4% (17/26). Among these individuals, the clinical pregnancy rate of the prepubertal group was 62.5% (10/16) and the pubertal-postpubertal group was 70.0% (7/10). There were no statistical differences in clinical pregnancy rate. Some other clinical pregnancy outcomes, including miscarriage rate in early pregnancy, the rate of cycle with 2PN and the rate of cycle with top-quality embryo, also showed no differences between the two groups. In pathology analysis, all the cryptorchidism NOA patients with failure sperm retrieval were Sertoli cell only syndrome (SCOS). The pubertal-postpubertal group had a significant higher morbidity of SCOS [76.5% (13/17)] compared with the prepubertal group [35.3% (6/17)] ( P=0.016). In addition, the volume of testis, the level of follicle-stimulating hormone and testosterone were not statistically associated with SRR. Conclusion:The SRR of NOA patients with cryptorchidism was higher than those without cryptorchidism. The age at orchidopexy operation may have little effect on the pregnancy outcome of ICSI. It may be more beneficial for microTESE to obtain sperm by undergoing orchiopexy as early as possible.

Objective:To investigate the clinical outcome of microdissection testicular sperm extraction (microTESE) combined with intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) in patients with nonobstructive azoospermia (NOA) associated with mumps orchitis.Methods:The clinical data of NOA patients who underwent microTESE from December 2013 to October 2019 in the ICSI treatment cycle in Assisted Reproduction Center, Northwest Women and Children's Hospital were collected. All the patients who had a history of mumps were divided into two groups according to whether they had mumps orchitis or not. The clinical outcomes after the implementation of microTESE combined with ICSI were compared.Results:A total of 52 NOA patients were finally collected in the present study and 26 patients successfully processed sperm retrieval, the total sperm retrieval rate (SRR) was 50.0% (26/52). The SRR was 94.4% (17/18) in ornitis group, and 26.5% (9/34) in non-ornitis group. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.001). ICSI treatment was tried in sperm patients, and the clinical pregnancy rate was 61.5% (16/26). There was no statistically significant difference in the clinical pregnancy rate and the early pregnancy abortion rate between ornitis group and non-ornitis group [58.5% (10/17) vs. 66.7% (6/9), P=0.696; 20.0% (2/10) vs. 16.7% (1/6), P=0.868]. In the laboratory data, the difference of two pronucleus rate between orchitis group and non-orchitis group was statistically significant (73.9% vs. 57.0%, P=0.006), while the difference of high-quality embryo rate between the two groups was not statistically significant (44.2% vs. 56.8%, P=0.144). Conclusion:The SRR of NOA patients with mumps orchitis was higher that of out ornitis. And good results can be expected when microTESE and ICSI treatment are performed at the same period.
