OBJECTIVE To evaluate the current status of bacterial contamination control and prevention measures and construction of quality control laboratory in Chinese blood station,and find out the problems and put forward the improvement suggestions.METHODS A total of 41 questionnaires were sent out for performance comparison by secretariat of working group of Chinese blood collection and supply institutions from May 2024 to Jun.2024,and 40 questionnaires were received(14 blood centers and 26 central blood stations),39 of which were valid.The questionnaire survey covered four aspects,including disinfection and surveillance,construction of quality control laboratory,sterility test for blood component and monitoring of blood transfusion reactions.The data were pro-cessed through itemized statistics and descriptive analysis.RESULTS Totally 84.62％of the blood stations used io-dine-containing disinfectants for arm disinfection of the blood donors,and the monthly monitoring was the primary frequency.Among the quality control laboratories,43.59％were registered as biosafety level 2,while 35.90％lacked biosafety registration.As for the pressure settings of the laboratories,64.10％were under normal pres-sure,15.38％under negative pressure and 17.95％under positive pressure.In the sterility test,the utilization rate of ultra clean operating tables and biological safety cabinets was 48.72％,the blood stations that did not have the indoor quality control accounted for 79.49％,and only 35.90％participated the external quality assessment.Regarding the approaches to confirm the positive result,25.64％of the blood stations adopted the re-peated tests,and 15.38％adopted the combination with positive culture bottle.The shortage of fund was the ma-jor restricted factor for the sterility test,and the confirmation of positive result was the fundamental difficulty.The blood stations with the feedback of insufficient transfusion reactions reported from hospitals ac-counted for 53.85％,while the blood stations that encountered suspected bacterial transfusion reactions with nega-tive culture results accounted for 25.64％.CONCLUSIONS The infeciton control and prevention measures and the construction of quality control laboratory vary significantly in Chinese blood stations.The incomplete biosafety registration,non-standardized sterility test operation and weak surveillance of blood transfusion reactions are the major existing problems.It is suggested that the investment should be increased to push forward the standardi-zation and complete the laboratory biosafety system,and a hospital-blood station closed loop coordination mecha-nism should be established so as to raise the blood safety.

Objective:To analyze the effect of joint management of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) between specialty and community under the model of National Diabetes Prevention and Control Center (DPCC).Methods:A total of 2 527 T2DM patients managed by DPCC Pingshan Center of Shenzhen from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2024 were retrospectively included. After management, the rate of downturn, reexamination rate, blood pressure compliance rate, metabolic indicators (waist circumference, body mass index, fasting blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, blood lipids) and screening rate of chronic complications of diabetes (atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, microvascular disease, diabetic peripheral neuropathy) were analyzed. Those included 2022 ( n=564), 2023 ( n=1 477), and 2024 ( n=2 527). Results:The downturn rate in 2022, 2023 and 2024 increased year by year (22.8% vs 67.2% vs 89.9%, P<0.01), and the review rate (41.1% vs 62.2% vs 52.7%, P<0.01), complication screening rate (51.6% vs 85.3% vs 62.2%, P<0.01), blood pressure compliance rate (53.1% vs 78.0% vs 67.2%, P<0.01), body mass index compliance rate (13.2% vs 17.3% vs 28.6%, P<0.01), fasting blood glucose meeting rate (46.4% vs 60.2% vs 68.5%, P<0.01), glycated hemoglobin meeting rate (58.4% vs 63.2% vs 45.6%, P<0.01) were relatively improved. Waist circumference compliance rate (30.6% vs 27.7% vs 21.6%) and blood lipid compliance rate (33.6% vs 35.5% vs 31.9%) were not significantly improved, and the review rate, blood pressure compliance rate and complication screening rate in 2024 were lower than those in 2023 and higher than those in 2022. Conclusions:The combined management of type 2 diabetes under the DPCC model has significant effects on improving the down-conversion rate, rediagnosis rate, blood pressure compliance rate, metabolic index compliance rate and the screening rate of diabetes-related chronic complications in patients with diabetes. At the same time, it was also found that with the progress of hierarchical diagnosis and treatment, the review rate, complication screening rate, blood pressure, waist circumference, blood lipid and glycosylated hemoglobin reached the standard of patients decreased compared with the previous situation, which needs to be further analyzed and improved.

Objective To investigate the effect of different decompression methods on the efficacy of the unilateral biportal endoscopy(UBE)in the treatment of severe lumbar spinal stenosis(LSS).Methods A total of 203 elderly patients with LSS who underwent UBE treatment in our hospital from September 2021 to June 2024 were selected and divided into the unilateral group(102 cases)and the bilateral group(101 cases)according to different decompression methods.The unilateral group underwent unilateral decompression during operation,while the bilateral group underwent bilateral decompression(with bilateral decompression through the same incision and unilateral approach)during operation.The perioperative conditions,anatomical image parameters,visual analogue scale(VAS)scores,Oswestry disability index(ODI),and complications were compared between the two groups.The rehabilitation progress and complications of patients with different Charlson comorbidity index(CCI)values were compared.Results The operation time of patients in the bilateral group was longer than that in the unilateral group(P<0.05).The dural sac area and lumbar spinal canal area of patients in the bilateral group were larger than those in the unilateral group immediately after operation and 3 months after operation(P<0.05).The VAS scores and ODI 7 days and 3 months after operation of patients in the bilateral group were lower than those in the unilateral group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in the total incidence of complications between the two groups of patients(P>0.05).The first time of getting out of bed after operation and hospital stay in patients with CCI value>2 scores were longer than those in patients with CCI value≤2 scores(P<0.05).Conclusion Compared with unilateral decompression,bilateral decompression for elderly patients with severe LSS takes a longer surgical time,but it can better restore lumbar shape,alleviate pain,improve lumbar function,and has higher safety,and the milder the patient's condition,the faster the postoperative recovery.

Objective:To develop an artificial intelligence (AI)-based automatic scoring model for magnetic resonance imaging-detected extramural vascular invasion (AI-mrEMVI) and evaluate its performance and prognostic value in patients with rectal cancer.Methods:In this multicenter retrospective cohort study, a total of 2 501 rectal cancer patients from seven centers between November 2012 and December 2020 were included and divided into completely independent training ( n=1 830) and validation ( n=671) cohorts. A nnUNet-based AI-mrEMVI scoring model was constructed. Manual mrEMVI scores assigned by two radiologists served as the reference standard for accessing the accuracy of the AI-mrEMVI scoring. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Cox regression were used to evaluate the prognostic stratification ability of the AI-mrEMVI scores. The concordance index (C-index) was calculated to evaluate prognostic performance. Results:In the validation cohort, the manual mrEMVI scores were 0-2 in 425 patients (63.3%), 3 in 89 (13.4%), and 4 in 157 (23.4%). The AI-mrEMVI model identified 0-2 in 375 patients (55.9%), 3 in 95 (14.2%), and 4 in 201 (30.0%), with an overall accuracy of 81.1% (544/671, 95% CI 77.9%-84.0%). The 3-year disease-free survival (DFS) rates for patients with AI-mrEMVI scores of 0-2, 3, and 4 were 85.2%, 70.0%, and 58.2%, respectively, and the 5-year overall survival (OS) rates were 87.2%, 81.6%, and 62.6%, respectively (DFS: χ2=48.74, P<0.001; OS: χ2=30.04, P<0.001). Multivariable Cox regression showed that for DFS, AI-mrEMVI scores of 3 and 4 were associated with hazard ratios ( HR) of 1.75 (95% CI 1.11-2.77, P=0.016) and 2.65 (95% CI 1.86-3.78, P<0.001), respectively. For OS, an AI-mrEMVI score of 4 was associated with an HR of 2.56 (95% CI 1.62-4.03, P<0.001). The C-index values of the AI-mrEMVI scoring model for predicting DFS and OS were 0.647 (95% CI 0.608-0.686) and 0.650 (95% CI 0.598-0.702), respectively. Conclusion:The proposed AI-mrEMVI automatic scoring model demonstrated high diagnostic accuracy and performed favorably in predicting DFS and OS prognostic risk in patients with rectal cancer.

Objective To define the operation scale of the biochemical test project based on the risk model,and design the statistical quality control(SQC)strategy by rationally adjusting the risk factors.Methods The σ(σ)values for the biochemistry test items were calculated based on the imprecision(CV)of internal quality control(IQC),external quality assessment(EQA)offset bias(Bias)and allowable total error(TEa)of CLIA 2019.By evaluating and adjusting the patient risk factors,designed the SQC for multiple test biochemical items representing high σ,medium σ and low σ categories.Results Clinical biochemistry testing items with different QC levels showed different σ performance,with values for P and K quality control levels 2 higher than level 1 and the remaining items all had very similar.18 projects for risk σ≥4.96:CK,LDH,GGT,AMY,AST,MG,TG,TBIL,FE,NA,UA,CREA,P,ALP,K,ALT and CA,respectively.Controlled with a QC program 13s N=2,run size was 179～1 000 samples.ALB,GLU,CL,TP and UREA need to achieve the expected operational scale by adjusting for risk factors.Conclusion The laboratory can combine program testing performance and patient safety goals,design SQC strategies for clinical biochemistry testing programs by rationally adjusting risk factors,apply as few SQC procedures for as much testing as possible,and align the laboratory workload and reporting interval with the number of patient samples.
