Objective: To explore the impact of different blood donation scenarios on population characteristics and blood donation behaviors, and to provide a basis for precise blood donation recruitment. Methods: Eligible voluntary blood donors with complete records from four scenarios in Xi'an: medical institutions, cultural tourism SITES, commercial superstores, and blood centers. After a preliminary analysis of overall donor characteristics across the four scenarios, three core subgroups were defined based on scenarios and donor population differences: the medical subgroup (aged 30-39 years), the blood center subgroup (aged 30-39 years), and the cultural tourism and commercial superstore subgroup (aged 18-29 years). Baseline characteristics, blood donation behaviors, and blood test results were compared among the subgroups. Results: The blood donors in all four scenarios were mainly male, but the proportion of female donors in the medical scenario was the highest (26.4%, 8 878/33 634). In terms of age distribution, the cultural tourism and commercial superstore scenarios were dominated by donors aged 18-29, while the blood center and medical scenarios were dominated by those aged 30-39, with the highest proportion of donors over 40 in the medical scenario. The occupational and educational composition of blood donors in the blood center scenario spanned a wide range, exhibiting a clear bipolar distribution. Significant differences were observed in baseline characteristics, blood donation behaviors, and blood test results among the three core subgroups (P<0.001). The medical subgroup was mainly composed of enterprise/industrial workers and married individuals, with high proportions of first-time blood donors, and the highest unqualified rate of infectious indicators (2.0%, 274/13 509). The cultural tourism and commercial superstore subgroup was mainly unmarried and students, featured high proportions of large-volume donations and evening donations, and had a relatively high unqualified rate for ALT (0.4%, 130/31 443). The blood center subgroup had a complex population structure, a high proportion of repeat blood donors (45.3%, 6449/14 225), and moderate results in all test indicators. Conclusion: There is an inherent correlation between the attributes of blood donation scenarios, population characteristics, and blood donation behaviors. The differences among the three core subgroups provide a clear basis for precise scenario operation. By constructing transformation channels between different scenarios and optimizing scenario-specific strategies, the structure of blood donors can be improved, thereby supporting the sustainable development of voluntary blood donation.

OBJECTIVE To establish a core competency evaluation system for drug clinical trial quality management personnel in China and validate its application. METHODS Based on the scope of work， responsibilities， and role positioning of quality management personnel in drug clinical trials， a preliminary draft of the core competency evaluation system was constructed through literature analysis and expert consultation. The draft was refined through a Delphi method involving 17 experts who provided feedback and revisions， ultimately forming a complete evaluation system. The developed system was applied to conduct electronic surveys from March to May 2024 among 110 quality management personnel from 38 drug clinical trial institutions， comparing their scores on indicator importance and self-assessed capabilities. RESULTS The response rate of both rounds of questionnaire survey was 100%， with Kendall’s W coefficients of 0.256 and 0.277 （P＜0.001 for both）， and an expert authority coefficient of 0.946. The finalized evaluation system for core competencies of clinical trial quality management personnel comprised 9 primary indicators， covering individual professional competence， communication skills， implementation condition verification， informed consent process review， clinical trial execution monitoring， adverse event disposal， reporting and documentation， trial record examination， trial report auditing， and inspection of other tasks， and 107 secondary indicators. Empirical research revealed significant discrepancies between importance scores and self-assessed competency scores across 70 indicators among 110 respondents （P＜0.05）. Indicators with relatively notable gaps between importance scores and self-assessed competency scores included in-depth understanding of Good Clinical Practice （GCP） requirements （0.34-point gap）， familiarity with national and institutional clinical trial inspection priorities （0.24-point gap），etc. CONCLUSIONS The indicator system constructed in this study has good scientificity and reliability. Clinical trial quality management personnel demonstrate deficiencies in multiple critical competencies， highlighting the urgent need for targeted training programs to enhance their overall professional capabilities.

Objective:To investigate altered neurovascular coupling in patients with depression(DEP)using resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)and arterial spin labeling perfusion MRI,as well as its association with depressive symptoms.Methods:Neuropsychological assessment and multimodal MRI scans were performed for 25 DEP patients and 35 healthy controls(HCs).Arterial spin labeling perfusion MRI was used to calculate cerebral blood flow(CBF),and functional MRI was used to calculate regional homogeneity(ReHo).The Pearson correlation coefficient between CBF and ReHo was calculated to obtain neurovascular cou-pling.Results:At the whole-brain level,CBF-ReHo coupling was reduced in DEP patients compared with HCs.At the brain region level,CBF-ReHo coupling was reduced in 26 brain regions in DEP patients,which were mainly located in the visual network,the default network,and the auditory network.The correlation analysis showed that the coupling values of the left suboccipital gyrus,the left angular gyrus,and the left thalamus were negatively correlated with Hamilton Depression Scale score.Conclusion:There is a sig-nificant reduction in neurovascular coupling in DEP patients,which is correlated with the severity of DEP.

Objective To describe the clinical features of patients with primary sclerosing cholangitis(PSC)in China based on a nationwide multicenter patient cohort,and to investigate the risk factors for prognosis.Methods A retrospective cohort study was conducted among the patients with a confirmed diagnosis of PSC based on the electronic medical record system of seven grade A tertiary hospitals across the country,and related data were extracted.The Mann-Whitney U test was used for comparison of continuous data between groups,and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups.The Kaplan-Meier method was used to estimate liver transplant-free survival,and the log-rank test was used for comparison of survival rate between PSC patients with different features.The Cox regression model was used to identify independent risk factors for the prognosis of PSC patients and the interactions between key factors.Results A total of 107 patients were enrolled,among whom 55.6%(55/99)had large-duct PSC and 29.0%(31/107)had comorbidity with inflammatory bowel disease(IBD).The positivity rate of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody(ANCA)was 32.9%(24/73),and 50.0%(40/80)of the patients had an increase in IgG/IgM.The median symptom-to-diagnosis interval was 1 year(<1-4.0),and 38.3%(41/107)of the patients had progressed to decompensated cirrhosis at the time of diagnosis.The median liver transplant-free survival time was 114 months(95%confidence interval[CI]:62-166),with a 5-year survival rate of 65.7%.The multivariate analysis showed that an increase in total bile acid(TBA)(hazard ratio[HR]=1.006,95%CI:1.002-1.010,P=0.001)and a prolonged symptom-to-diagnosis interval(HR=1.252,95%CI:1.059-1.480,P=0.009)were independent risk factors for prognosis.The interaction analysis showed that compared with the female patients with TBA<50 μmol/L,both male and female patients with TBA≥50 μmol/L had a significant increase in the risk of liver transplantation or death(male:HR=16.563,95%CI:2.103-130.449,P<0.001;female:HR=17.009,95%CI:2.113-136.934,P<0.001),and compared with the patients with an age of<45 years and a TBA level of<50 μmol/L,the patients with an age of≥45 years and a TBA level of≥50 μmol/L had a significant increase in the risk of liver transplantation or death(HR=10.729,95%CI:1.325-86.859,P=0.026).Compared with the female patients with an symptom-to-diagnosis interval of≤2 years,the male patients with a symptom-to-diagnosis interval of>2 years had an increased risk of liver transplantation or death(HR=4.825,95%CI:1.725-13.644,P=0.003),and compared with the patients with an age of<45 years and a symptom-to-diagnosis interval of≤2 years,the patients with an age of<45 years and a symptom-to-diagnosis interval of>2 years had an increased risk of liver transplantation or death(HR=4.983,95%CI:1.366-18.173,P=0.015).Conclusion Compared with the reports from Western countries,large-duct PSC is also the main type of PSC in China,but with a relatively low proportion,and there is also a relatively low proportion of patients with IBD or positive ANCA.An increase in TBA and a prolonged symptom-to-diagnosis interval are independent risk factors for prognosis,with significant interactions with age and sex.This suggests that early screening and intervention should be enhanced to improve prognosis.

Research shows that epileptic seizures are essentially due to abnormal functions of neural circuits. Optogenetics regulates neural circuits by specifically expressing light-sensitive proteins in target neurons, which has now become an important tool in the research of temporal lobe epilepsy. Studies have shown that optogenetics focuses on brain regions such as the hippocampus, medial septal nucleus, cerebellum, and basal ganglia in studying temporal lobe epilepsy. This article reviews the research progress of optogenetics in exploring the pathogenesis and therapeutic targets of temporal lobe epilepsy, aiming to provide new ideas for temporal lobe epilepsy treatment.

Objective·To explore the effects and potential molecular mechanisms of blocking cannabinoid receptor 1(CB1)in acute lung injury(ALI)in mice.Methods·Forty mice were randomly divided into blank control group,AM281(CB1 antagonist)control group,lipopolysaccharide(LPS)group,and LPS+AM281 group,with ten mice in each group.ALI models were induced by LPS.The pathological manifestations of lung tissues were observed in each group of mice by hematoxylin and eosin(H-E)staining and the inflammation scores were calculated.The mRNA levels of M1 markers[tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-1β(IL-1β),IL-12]and M2 markers[arginase(Arg),mannose receptor,C type 2(Mrc2),macrophage galactose-type lectin 1(Mgl1)]in lung macrophages were measured by reverse transcription and real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qPCR).Human myeloid leukemia monocytes THP-1 cells were cultured in vitro,and the expression of CB1 and CB2 in THP-1 cells was detected by immunofluorescence.After further blocking CB1 and inhibiting the Gαi/o/RhoA signaling pathway,the mRNA levels of M1 markers were assessed.Results·The LPS group showed significant lung tissue damage and a significant increase in inflammation scores in mice.After blocking CB1,compared with the LPS group,the LPS+AM281 group of mice showed improvements in lung injury,manifested as improved congestion of alveolar wall capillaries,reduced infiltration of inflammatory cells in the lung interstitium and alveolar cavity,and a decreased inflammation score(P=0.007).Compared with the control group,the levels of M1 marker in the lung tissue of the LPS group were upregulated,while the polarization of macrophages changed and the M1/M2 ratio was reversed after blocking CB1(all P<0.05).In vitro studies found that macrophages expressed CB1 and CB2.Activation of CB1 by arachidonyl-2-chloroethylamide(ACEA)upregulated the expression of M1 markers.Blocking CB1 and selectively inhibiting Gαi/o/RhoA signaling significantly downregulated M1 markers(all P<0.05).Conclusion·CB1 promotes the polarization of macrophage towards the M1 phenotype through the Gαi/o/RhoA signaling pathway in ALI,and blocking CB1 can improve lung injury.

Objective:To establish a rapid and accurate duplex real-time fluorescent reverse transcription-recombinase polymerase amplification/recombinase-aided amplification（RT-RPA/RAA）detection method for identification and differentiation of Nipah virus（NiV），Langya virus（LayV），Mojiang virus（MoJV），and Cedar virus（CedV）.Methods:First，specific primers and probes were designed targeting the conserved L gene regions of NiV and LayV，as well as the conserved N gene regions of MoJV and CedV，respectively. The four viruses were divided into two groups for duplex detection. Subsequently，the optimal primer and probe combinations were screened by comparing the amplification efficiency of different primer pair combinations（F1/R1，F1/R2，F2/R1，F2/R2）. The reaction temperature was optimized through temperature gradient settings from 37 ℃ to 42 ℃，and the amounts of primers and probes were optimized to establish the duplex real-time fluorescent RT-RPA/RAA detection system. Finally，the detection performance was evaluated through specificity，sensitivity，and stability tests，as well as clinical sample validation.Results:The selected primer pairs（NiV primer pair F2/R1，LayV primer pair F1/R1，MoJV primer pair F2/R2，and CedV primer pair F2/R2）all demonstrated optimal amplification efficiency when combined with their corresponding probes. The optimal annealing temperature was 39 ℃，and the minimum detection limit was 101-102 copies/μl. The method could effectively distinguish target viruses from other non-target viruses，and repeated experiments showed good stability（ R2> 0.90）. Additionally，detection results for Malaysian NiV strains and various clinical samples were consistent with the Taqman multiplex qRT-PCR method. Conclusion:The duplex real-time fluorescent RT-RPA/RAA detection method successfully established in this study can rapidly and accurately identify and differentiate four important henipavirus-like viruses：NiV，LayV，MoJV，and CedV. It features simple operation，rapid reaction，high specificity，and good stability，providing an effective molecular detection tool for rapid field diagnosis，surveillance，and control of these zoonotic viruses.

Objective To develop a risk management system for complications associated with peripheral venous indwelling needles and to evaluate its application effect in order to reduce the risk of related complications.Methods We designed a comprehensive risk management system for peripheral intravenous indwelling needle complications,integrating specialized evidence-based guidelines with clinical practice insights,including 5 modules:intelligent assessment and decision support,intelligent inspection reminders,educational modules,collaborative case management procedures,and a knowledge base.Patients admitted to the neurology and internal classification metabolism departments of a tertiary hospital in Jilin Province were conveniently selected as the research subjects.Patients were assigned to a control group(from May to July 2022,before the implementation of the system)and an experimental group(from September to December 2022,after the implementation of the system).The incidence of complications,duration of indwelling needle,compliance rate of core indicators for nursing quality and number of nursing consultations were compared between the groups.Additionally,a self-administered questionnaire was used to assess clinical nurses'evaluations of the system.Results A total of 189 patients were included in the experimental group and 177 patients in the control group.The incidence of complications associated with peripheral intravenous indwelling needles was lower than that in the control group.The duration of indwelling peripheral intravenous needles was longer than that in the control group.The quality compliance rate of peripheral venous indwelling needle care in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group,and the number of consultation cases in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group.Comparisons between the 2 groups showed statistically significant differences for all indicators(P＜0.05).The nurses'recognition rates for the system's user-friendliness,professional guidance,and patient benefit were 77.78％,81.74％,and 82.13％,respectively.Conclusion The application of a peripheral vein indwelling needle complication risk management system can reduce the incidence of complications,prolong the duration of indwelling,and improve nursing quality.Nurses have a high recognition of this system.

Objective:To explore an effective measurement method for the output power of high-frequency electrosurgical equipment,so as to provide a basis for improving the accuracy of measurement results of output power of this kind of equipment.Methods:Adopt a combined measurement method of voltage method and current method to verify the impedance characteristics of high-frequency resistors of the AJ-60 high-frequency surgical system at 4.2 MHz and 13.56 MHz.Through resistor modification,explore the measurement methods of output power under the two working modes of the system:monopolar pencil vaporization cutting(PV)and bipolar cutting(BC).Measure the power of the two working modes using both voltage method and current method,and analyze the influencing factors of their measurement accuracy.Results:The results of relative deviation between voltage method and current method for the measured power were significantly reduced through refit and comparison experiments.PV mode reduced from 40.58%to 1.11%,and BC mode reduced from 29.48%to 5.37%.In practical operation,the factors included limitation of prober's bandwidth,and mismatch of inputted impedance were important factors that affected the accuracy of measurement.Conclusions:In order to ensure accurate measurement for equipment's output power when operating frequencies exceed 4 MHz,it is essential to use non-inductive load resistance that is accurately calibrated at the specific operating frequency.It has great significance for enhancing the measured accuracy and reliability of output power of electrosurgical equipment with high-frequency.
