Objective: To analyze serological and molecular characteristics of asymptomatic HBV infection in HBV surface antigen positive (HBsAg+) blood donors from Dalian. Methods: The prevalence of HBsAg was analyzed among blood donors in Dalian between 2013 and 2022. Randomly selected HBsAg+ blood samples were subjected to HBV serological testing, HBV viral DNA quantification, and HBV genotyping. Results: Over this ten-year period, the prevalence of HBsAg decreased from 1.25% to 0.50% among blood donors in Dalian. Donors who tested positive for HBsAg prior to donation using a rapid test (RT) accounted for 92.5% of all HBsAg+ donors identified. A total of 240 confirmed HBsAg+ blood donors were randomly selected, including 125 donors with positive results and 115 with negative results in the pre-donation rapid test. HBsAg+ donors were mainly males (71.2%), with a median age of 42, and 97.5% of them being first-time donors. Based on HBV serological profiles, three stages of infection were identified: early infection (2.9%), suspected acute hepatitis (0.8%), and chronic infection (96.3%). The dominant HBV genotypes were C (68.9%) and B (28.4%). Among chronic HBV infection individuals, donors infected with HBV genotype B were older than those infected with genotype C (median age: 45y vs 38.5y, P<0.05). Additionally, they showed significantly lower HBsAg levels with a narrower distribution range than those infected with genotype C [median: 23.2 IU/mL (range: <0.05-7 910 IU/mL) vs 968 IU/mL (range: <0.05-3.4×10 ), P<0.05]. However, no significant difference was observed in the HBV DNA loads between these two genotypes (P>0.05). Conclusion: Between 2013 and 2022, the prevalence of HBsAg among blood donors in Dalian showed a year-over-year decline. Chronic infection was predominant among HBsAg+ first-time blood donors. The characteristics of chronic infection in blood donors differed significantly depending on the viral genotype, manifesting as differences in age of infected individuals and HBsAg level distribution.

Objective: To investigate whether syndecan-2(SDC2) can affect the proliferation, invasion and migration of cervical cancer cells by regulating ferroptosis and its possible mechanism. Methods : Normal cervical epithelial cells H8 and cervical squamous carcinoma cells C33A were cultured and divided into H8 group and C33A group. C33A cells were cultured and divided into control group, low SDC2 expression group, SDC2+ferroptosis inhibitor(ferrostation-1) group and SDC2 + ferroptosis inducer(erastin) group. Western blot was used to detect the protein levels of SDC2, solute carrier family 7 member 11(SLC7A11) and glutathione peroxidase 4(GPX4). RT-qPCR was used to detect the SDC2 mRNA level in C33A cells. ELISA kits were used to detect the levels of reactive oxygen species(ROS), glutathione(GSH) and ferrous ion(Fe2+) in C33A cells. The cloning ability of C33A cells was detected by plate cloning. The migration ability of C33A cells was detected by scratch test. Transwell assay was used to detect the invasion ability of C33A cells. Results : Compared with H8 group, the protein and mRNA expressions of SDC2, SLC7A11 and GPX4 in C33A group increased(P<0.05). Compared with the control group, the proliferation ability, migration ability and invasion ability of C33A cells in the low SDC2 group decreased(P<0.05), the protein and mRNA expressions of SLC7A11 and GPX4 in C33A cells decreased(P<0.05), and the GSH level decreased. ROS and Fe2+levels increased(P<0.05). Compared with the low SDC2 group, the protein and mRNA expressions of SLC7A11 and GPX4 increased(P<0.05), the GSH level increased, and the ROS and Fe2+levels decreased(P<0.05) in the low SDC2+ferrostation-1 group. Compared with the control group, the proliferation ability, migration ability and invasion ability of C33A cells with low SDC2+erastin expression decreased(P<0.05). Conclusion The expression of SDC2 increases in C33A cervical cancer cells. Low expression of SDC2 can activate SLC7A11/GPX4 pathway mediated ferroptosis, thereby reducing the proliferation, invasion and migration of C33A cells.

ObjectiveTo determine the pharmacodynamic substance basis of Epimedii Folium（EF） and Epimedii Wushanensis Folium（EWF） in promoting osteogenic differentiation， and to establish a method to analyze the material basis of Chinese materia medica based on the correlation between chemical fingerprint and cellular metabolomics. MethodThe chemical fingerprints of 15 batches of EF with 4 species and 3 batches of EWF were analyzed by ultra performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-electrostatic field orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap-MS）， and partial least squares-discriminant analysis（PLS-DA） was used to analyze the peak areas of chemical fingerprints of samples. The effects of different samples on proliferative activity of MC3T3-E1 osteoblast precursors， as well as the activity of alkaline phosphatase（ALP） in osteoblasts were detected by cell counting kit-8（CCK-8） and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay（ELISA）. At the same time， UPLC-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry（UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS） was used to analyze the effects of different samples on the metabolomics of MC3T3-E1 cells， then metabolic peak table of osteogenic differentiation cells was constructed， and pharmacodynamic index mean Y₀ was introduced into the peak table. PLS was used to calculate mean Y₀ of each group， and the mean Y₀ was added to the peak table of chemical fingerprint to construct the correlation between chemical fingerprint and cell metabolome， the pharmacodynamic components of EF and EWF that promote bone differentiation were screened according to variable importance in the projection（VIP） value>1. The pharmacodynamic effects of EF and EWF were evaluated according to the mean Y₀ of each group. ResultThe chemical fingerprints of EF with different origins and EWF were completely separated. Compared with the blank group， the activity of MC3T3-E1 cells in EF and EWF groups was significantly increased， the activity of ALP in the Epimedium brevicornu（Gansu province）， E. koreanum and E. pubescens groups was significantly increased（P<0.05）. The results of cell metabolomics showed that the blank group and the model group had an obvious trend of separation. EF with different origins and EWF had different distance from the model group， indicating that EF with different origins and EWF had different effect on promoting osteogenic differentiation. Chemical fingerprint-cell metabolomics integration analysis screened 9 components closely related to the efficacy of EF and EWF， including diphylloside B， epimedin C， icariin， baohuoside Ⅰ， yinyanghuo B， β-anhydroicaritin， magnoflorine， cryptochlorogenic acid and quercetin. E. koreanum had the strongest effect on promoting osteogenic differentiation. ConclusionThis study determined that the material basis of EF and EWF promoting osteogenic differentiation were mostly flavonoids， alkaloids and organic acids， which provided ideas and methods for the screening of pharmacodynamic components and the prediction of therapeutic effect of Chinese materia medica.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of single-wide-tunnel endoscopic submucosal dissection with single-clip-line traction (W-ESTD) for the treatment of early esophageal cancer and precancerous lesions with large area (≥ 3/4 circumference).Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on patient data of large early esophageal cancer or precancerous lesions treated with digestive endoscopy at the Affiliated Huai'an NO.1 People's Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from January 2018 to January 2023. Patients were divided into W-ESTD group and endoscopic submucosal double-tunnel dissection (D-ESTD) group based on the technique used. Surgical speed, en bloc resection rate, R0 resection rate, curative resection rate, intraoperative and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups.Results:A total of 44 patients with large early esophageal cancer or precancerous lesions were included in this study, including 23 cases in the W-ESTD group and 21 cases in the D-ESTD group. There was no statistically significant difference in baseline data between the two groups ( P>0.05). The operating speeds of W-ESTD and D-ESTD groups were 29.97±11.89 mm2/min and 22.65±6.30 mm2/min, respectively, with significant difference ( t=2.580, P=0.014). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of en bloc resection rate [95.7% (22/23) VS 100.0% (21/21), P=1.000], R0 resection rate [87.0% (20/23) VS 90.5% (19/21), P=1.000], or curative resection rate [73.9% (17/23) VS 85.7% (18/21), P=0.462]. No recurrence occurred. Intraoperative muscular injury occurred in 3 cases in the W-ESTD group and 5 cases in the D-ESTD group, and postoperative esophageal stricture occurred in 11 cases and 8 cases respectively, with no significant differences between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared to D-ESTD, W-ESTD can significantly improve surgical speed and demonstrate itself as a safe and effective approach for treating large early esophageal cancer and precancerous lesions.

Intracranial atherosclerosis has been regard as the most common cause of ischemic stroke.The information of the types and degree of vascular wall lesions is important basis for the diagnosis and treatment of ischemic stroke.High-resolution MR vessel wall imaging can directly display the lumen and wall of intracranial vessels,evaluate the characteristics of atherosclerotic plaque qualitatively and quantitatively,including intra-plaque hemorrhage,plaque enhancement,and plaque distribution.Thus,high-resolution MR vessel wall imaging may play an important role in risk stratification,pathogenesis,treatment and prognosis evaluation in ischemic stroke patients.This review summarizes the progress of high-resolution MRI vessel wall imaging in the evaluation of intracranial atherosclerosis,especially the pathogenesis of plaque features and treatment-related information.

Patients with severe trauma require an extremely timely treatment and transfusion plays an irreplaceable role in the emergency treatment of such patients. An increasing number of evidence-based medicinal evidences and clinical practices suggest that patients with severe traumatic bleeding benefit from early transfusion of low-titer group O whole blood or hemostatic resuscitation with red blood cells, plasma and platelet of a balanced ratio. However, the current domestic mode of blood supply cannot fully meet the requirements of timely and effective blood transfusion for emergency treatment of patients with severe trauma in clinical practice. In order to solve the key problems in blood supply and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma, Branch of Clinical Transfusion Medicine of Chinese Medical Association, Group for Trauma Emergency Care and Multiple Injuries of Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association, Young Scholar Group of Disaster Medicine Branch of Chinese Medical Association organized domestic experts of blood transfusion medicine and trauma treatment to jointly formulate Chinese expert consensus on blood support mode and blood transfusion strategies for emergency treatment of severe trauma patients ( version 2024). Based on the evidence-based medical evidence and Delphi method of expert consultation and voting, 10 recommendations were put forward from two aspects of blood support mode and transfusion strategies, aiming to provide a reference for transfusion resuscitation in the emergency treatment of severe trauma and further improve the success rate of treatment of patients with severe trauma.

Background The community is the main place for people's daily activities. A livable environment will improve the subjective well-being of residents. Objective To understand the current status of subjective well-being of residents in Pudong, Shanghai, and explore the impact of community environmental factors on residents' subjective well-being. Methods Using quota sampling, 6000 permanent residents from 12 sub-districts or towns in Pudong, Shanghai were selected to participate in an questionnaire survey. The questionnaire included three parts: participants' basic information, community environmental factors (neighborhood aesthetics, fitness environment, public service and security, natural environment), and subjective well-being. Using a multiple regression model, the influence of community environmental factors on the subjective well-being of residents was analyzed. Results A total of 5887 questionnaires were recovered, and the valid recovery rate was 98.1%. The subjective well-being score of the survey respondents was (7.03±1.61) points. There was no statistical difference in the subjective well-being score of study subjects of different gender and marital status groups; while those with different ages, education levels, occupations, and self-evaluated economic status showed statistical differences in their subjective well-being score (P<0.05). The multiple logistic regression analysis results showed that after controlling general demographic characteristics, with the low level as the control group (according predetermined cut-off values of 33.3% and 66.7%, the community environmental factors were divided into high-, medium-, and low-level groups), the OR values of subjective well-being of the high- and medium-level neighborhood aesthetics groups were 1.393 (95%CI: 1.173-1.654) and 1.235 (95%CI: 1.080-1.412); the OR values of the high- and medium-level fitness environment groups were 2.297 (95%CI: 1.929-2.734) and 1.349 (95%CI: 1.166-1.560); the OR values of the high- and medium-level public service and security groups were 1.101 (95%CI: 0.943-1.285) and 1.039 (95%CI: 0.905-1.193); the OR values of the high- and medium-level natural environment groups were 4.248 (95%CI: 3.321-5.434) and 1.652 (95%CI: 1.374-1.986), respectively. Conclusion Community environment factors could affect residents' subjective well-being, and good neighborhood aesthetics, fitness environment, natural environment have positive effects.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between global burden of small vessel disease(CSVD) on MRI and impaired spatial navigation in patients with CSVD.Methods:Patients with CSVD admitted to the Department of Neurology, Nanjing Jiangning Hospital from November 2020 to June 2022 were selected as the research subjects. The global burden of CSVD was scored according to the head MRI findings, and was divided into mild group (0-1 points), moderate group (2 points), and severe group (3-4 points). All patients were tested for spatial navigation function. Multivariate linear regression model was used to analyze the correlation between the global burden of CSVD and the spatial navigation function.Results:A total of 101 patients with CSVD were enrolled, including 37 patients in the mild group (36.6%), 28 in the moderate group (27.7%), and 36 in the severe group (35.6%). Age, glycosylated hemoglobin, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and creatinine, as well as the proportions of hypertension, diabetes, previous stroke or transient ischemic attack in the moderate group and the severe group were significantly higher than those in the mild group, while the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol was significantly lower than that in the mild group (all P<0.05). The spatial navigation function test showed that the environment + self-navigation, self-navigation and environment navigation functions of the moderate group and the severe group decreased significantly compared with the mild group (all P<0.05). Multivariate linear regression analysis showed that after adjusting for age, sex, hypertension, previous stroke or transient ischemic attack history and years of education, the global burden of CSVD and environment + self-navigation ( β=0.518, P<0.001), self-navigation ( β=0.481, P<0.001) and environmental navigation ( β=0.699, P<0.001) function had significant correlation. Conclusion:The global burden of CSVD is correlated with spatial navigation functions.
