[Objective] To analyse and predict the tendencies of using erythrocyte blood in Changsha based on the autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model, long short-term memory (LSTM) and ARIMA-LSTM combination model, so as to provide reliable basis for designing a feasible and effective blood inventory management strategy. [Methods] The data of erythrocyte usage from hospitals in Changsha between January 2012 and December 2023 were collected, and ARIMA model, LSTM model and ARIMA-LSTM combination model were established. The actual erythrocyte consumption from January to May 2024 were used to assess and verify the prediction effect of the models. The extrapolation prediction accuracy of the models were tested using two evaluation indicators: mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) and root mean square error (RMSE), and then the prediction performance of the model was compared. [Results] The RMSE of LSTM model, optimal model ARIMA(1,1,1)(1,1,1)12 and ARIMA-LSTM combination model were respectively 5 206.66, 3 096.43 and 2 745.75, and the MAPE were 18.78%,11.54% and 9.76% respectively, which indicated that the ARIMA-LSTM combination model was more accurate than the ARIMA model and LSTM model, and the prediction results was basically consistent with the actual situation. [Conclusion] The ARIMA-LSTM model can better predict the clinical erythrocyte consumption in Changsha in the short term.

Objective To investigate the application of chromosome microarray analysis(CMA)in prenatal diagnosis of 18q deletion syndrome and to analyze the genotype-phenotype correlation of 18q deletion syndrome.Methods Prenatal diagnosis of three fetuses with 18q deletion syndrome was conducted through amniotic fluid karyotype analysis and CMA.Results Karyotype analysis results of the three fetuses were 46,XY,del(18)(q22);46,XY,-18,+mar;and 46,XX,del(18)(q21.2),respectively.The results of CMA showed that Case 1 had a deletion of 10.0 Mb in the 18q22.2q23 region,Case 2 had a deletion of 5.5 Mb in the 18p11.32p11.31 region and a deletion of 20.9 Mb in the 18q21.32q23 region,and Case 3 had a deletion of 24.1 Mb in the 18q21.2q23 region.Therefore,all the three fetuses had 18q deletion syndrome.Conclusion As a molecular diagnostic technique,CMA can accurately detect the location and size of pathogenic chromosome copy number,and identify the pathogenic genes.It can provide useful evidence for prenatal diagnosis and genetic counseling of 18q deletion syndrome.

Objective To investigate the serum amino acid levels in patients with acute schizophrenia(SCZ)and their predictive effect on the improvement of cognitive function after treatment,so as to provide new insights into the clinical intervention of cognitive impairment in SCZ patients.Methods A total of 66 patients with acute SCZ were enrolled(case group-baseline period).Among them,36 cases completed the follow-up after 3 months of standardized treatment(case group-follow-up period);52 healthy controls(HCs)were included.The MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery(MCCB)was used to assess the cognitive function of all the participants.Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(LC-MS)was employed to detect the concentrations of 18 amino acids in fasting serum of the case group-baseline period and the control group.Independent samples t-test was used to compare serum amino acid levels and cognitive function between the case group-baseline period and the control group.Paired t-test was used to compare the differences in cognitive function between the baseline period and the follow-up period of the case group.Spearman correlation analysis and multivariate linear regression model were used to investigate the correlation between serum amino acid levels at baseline in the case group and the improvement of cognitive function after 3 months of treatment.Results Compared with the control group,the cognitive function of SCZ patients in multiple dimensions at baseline was significantly reduced(P＜0.05).After treatment,the scores of Trail Making Test(TMT),Brief Assessment of Cognition in Schizophrenia:Symbol Coding(BACS),Wechsler Memory Scale-Ⅲ(WMS),and Brief Visuospatial Memory Test-Revised(BVMT)in patients were significantly improved(all P＜0.05).In addition,the levels of proline,methionine,histidine,phenylalanine,arginine,tyrosine,aspartic acid,tryptophan,lysine,and glutamic acid were significantly lower in the case group at baseline than in the control group(all P＜0.05).Among them,the baseline tyrosine level had a significant predictive value for the improvement of TMT(R2=0.136,P=0.029),Neuropsychological Assessment Battery(NAB)(R2=0.339,P＜0.001),and Mayer-Salovey-Caruso Emotional Intelligence Test(MSCEIT)test(R2=0.165,P=0.015).The baseline arginine level had a significant predictive value for the improvement rate of Fluency test(R2=0.113,P=0.048).Conclusion There is a decrease in various amino acid levels in patients with SCZ,and some amino acids can effectively predict the improvement of cognitive function after treatment.

Objective To investigate the effect of peripheral blood bile acids on the cognitive function of schizophrenia patients.Methods Targeted metabolomics was adopted to analyze the total level of primary and secondary serum bile acid metabolites collected from 23 schizophrenia patients and 23 health control individuals.The MATRICS Consensus Cognitive Battery(MCCB)was adopted to evaluate the subjects'cognitive function in five dimensions.Results We found that the schizophrenia patients had impaired cognitive functions in multiple dimensions including speed of processing,working memory,reasoning and problem solving,and visual learning.Compared with the health control group,serum levels of cholic acid(CA)and chenodeoxycholic acid(CDCA)were significantly lower in patients with schizophrenia,while serum level of glycocholic acid(GCA)was significantly higher,and the ratio of deoxycholic acid(DCA)to CA was higher(3.04 vs.1.16).Speed of processing,working memory,reasoning and problem solving,and visual learning abilities were significantly negatively correlated with serum levels of multiple primary bile acids including taurocholic acid(TCA),GCA,glycochenodeoxycholic acid(GCDCA)and taurochenodeoxycholic acid(TCDCA),after adjustments of age,sex,and body mass index.Conclusion The bile acid profile of schizophrenia patients is obvious,and the decrease in neuroprotective bile acids(namely,CA and CDCA)and the up-regulation of cytotoxic bile acid(i.e.,GCA)may impair the cognitive function of schizophrenia patients.

Objective:To explore the status quo and influencing factors of death anxiety among middle-aged and young adult patients with chronic heart failure (CHF) .Methods:Totally 176 middle-aged and young adult CHF patients treated at Fuwai Central China Cardiovascular Hospital between January 2021 and February 2023 were selected by convenience sampling and investigated with a general information questionnaire, the Medical Coping Modes Questionnaire (MCMQ), and the Death Anxiety Scale.Results:A total of 176 questionnaires were distributed, with 170 valid responses, yielding an effective response rate of 96.59%. Among the 170 middle-aged and young adult CHF patients, 136 had low death anxiety, while 34 had high death anxiety. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that educational level, per capita monthly family income, duration of illness, cardiac function classification, physical exercise, and coping style (yielding) were influencing factors of death anxiety in middle-aged and young adult CHF patients ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:Death anxiety in middle-aged and young adult CHF patients is primarily associated with educational level, per capita monthly family income, duration of illness, cardiac function classification, physical exercise, and coping style (yielding). Clinical assessments should focus on these factors to provide timely and targeted psychological interventions.
