Objective To explore an artificial intelligence (AI)-based method for automated hand hygiene monitoring and to compare the effectiveness of three algorithms (UniFormerV2, TDN, C3D) in recognizing hand hygiene steps in surgical settings, thereby aiding hospital infection control. Methods From April to October 2024, we non-invasively collected 641 video recordings of healthcare staff performing hand hygiene at four-bay scrub sinks in two tertiary hospitals using overhead HD cameras. The dataset was annotated by five trained experts for model training and validation. Results Following training on 385 samples, internal validation (n=119) showed the C3D model achieved 81% accuracy, 87% recall, and an 83% F1-score. The TDN model achieved 93%, 91%, and 92% for the same metrics. The UniFormerV2 model outperformed both, with an accuracy, recall, and F1-score of 93%—an improvement of over 10 percentage points compared to traditional CNNs (TDN, C3D). It also achieved an 84% accuracy in external validation, demonstrating strong generalization. Conclusion The UniFormerV2 model is more accurate than CNN-based models for hand hygiene step recognition and shows robust performance in external validation. It presents a viable tool for healthcare facilities to enhance hand hygiene management, ultimately improving medical quality and patient safety.

Objective: To investigate the epidemiological characteristics and spatial-temporal clustering of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) in Huai'an City, Jiangsu Province from 2011 to 2024, so as to provide a basis for optimizing local SFTS prevention and control strategies, and identifying high-risk areas and key populations. Methods: Data on SFTS incidence and deaths in Huai'an City from 2011 to 2024 were collected from the Infectious Disease Reporting Information System of the Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. The reported incidence, mortality, and fatality rates were calculated. Descriptive analysis was performed on temporal, population, and regional distribution. The average annual percent change (AAPC) was used to analyze the trend in the reported incidence of SFTS. Global and local spatial autocorrelation analyses were employed to examine the spatial distribution patterns and spatial association patterns of SFTS incidence while spatio-temporal scanning analyses was used to assess the spatial-temporal clustering of SFTS. Results: A total of 337 SFTS cases were reported in Huai'an City from 2011 to 2024, with the reported incidence rising from 0.17/100 000 to 1.88/100 000. There were 20 deaths, with an average annual mortality of 0.03/100 000, and a fatality rate of 5.93%. The incidence showed obvious seasonality, with a peak in May and June (148 cases, accounting for 43.92%). Spring and summer accounted for 107 cases (31.75%) and 159 cases (47.18%), respectively. The reported SFTS cases were mainly male, farmers, and individuals aged ≥41 years, accounting for 56.38%, 79.23%, and 96.74%, respectively. The population distribution of death cases was basically consistent with that of incident cases. Xuyi County was a high-incidence area, with a total of 332 reported cases, accounting for 98.52%. All death cases were reported in this county. Spatial autocorrelation analyses revealed a positive spatial correlation in SFTS incidence from 2019 to 2024, with Moran's I values ranging from 0.214 to 0.336 (all P<0.05). Heqiao Town, Tianquanhu Town, and Guiwu Town in Xuyi County were identified as high-high clustering areas. Spatio-temporal scanning analyses showed that cluster 1 was consistent with the high-high clustering areas, with an aggregation time from the second quarter of 2019 to the second quarter of 2022. Conclusions From 2011 to 2024, the reported incidence of SFTS in Huai'an City showed an upward trend, with a high incidence in spring and summer. Males, farmers, and the middle-aged and elderly population were the key populations for prevention and control. Xuyi County was the key area for prevention and control.

Objective To preliminarily investigate the safety and efficacy of donor pancreas needle biopsy in simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation. Methods Clinical data of 7 cases undergoing donor pancreas biopsy were collected retrospectively. All cases underwent donor pancreas biopsy before or during simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation. Frozen section or paraffin sectioning techniques were used for tissue preparation, and hematoxylin-eosin and Masson staining were performed to histologically evaluate the donor pancreas. The quality of donor pancreas was comprehensively assessed by combining histological findings with the donor's clinical data. Postoperative follow-up data of 5 simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplant recipients were collected to summarize the safety of donor pancreas biopsy and the prognosis of transplant recipients. Results The 7 pancreas donors were aged 28 to 62 years, with a body mass index ranging from 20.76 to 27.68 kg/m². Liver ultrasound indicated fatty liver in 3 cases, while pancreatic ultrasound did not reveal any significant abnormalities. Among them, biopsy was performed on 2 donors after completion of pancreatic procurement and processing, and the frozen section histology showed moderate acute pancreatitis changes (edema of acinar cells, necrosis and inflammatory cell infiltration). Combined with a serum amylase level elevated more than 3 times the upper limit of normal value, these two donor pancreases were finally discarded. The remaining 5 cases underwent biopsy immediately after pancreatic vascular anastomosis during simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation, and histological evaluation was performed on paraffin-embedded sections. No biopsy-related complications (such as bleeding, pancreatic fistula, etc.) occurred after transplantation. One recipient died of severe infection 2 months after transplantation, while the other 4 recipients were followed up for more than 5 years, with well-functioning transplant kidneys and pancreases. Conclusions Donor pancreas biopsy is relatively safe, and the risk of biopsy-related complications after transplantation is controllable. Comprehensive assessment of donor pancreas quality by combining histological evaluation with the donor's clinical indicators is conducive to improving the accuracy of donor pancreas selection and organ utilization.

Objective: To develop a smart blood donation service assistant for popularizing donation-related knowledge to blood donors via intelligent Q&A support, thereby enabling precise service delivery. Methods: Based on the operational scenarios of the Zhejiang Provincial Blood Center, the system utilized the open-source Dify platform for agent orchestration, and integrated with the DeepSeek model as the language processing engine to support online real-time interaction. External tools, including the Amap API and MySQL database queries, were encapsulated via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). A professional blood knowledge base for Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) was constructed using the BGE-M3 embedding model. An innovative dual-large language model collaborative verification mechanism was introduced to design the overall framework. The system was deployed privately using Docker containerization, and offline closed-loop optimization was achieved through customized Python scripts. Results: An interactive interface for blood donors was developed by integrating the chatflow Web component from Dify. The intelligent assistant Agent can recommend optimal blood donation sites and navigation routes by invoking the Amap API based on the donor's location. The Blood Donation Knowledge Agent enables timely responses to inquiries, along with reasonable suggestions and reminders. This agent specializes in the field of voluntary blood donation, empowering the assistant to answer doubts and questions for blood donors in the form of intelligent question-and-answer interaction. It also guides users through preliminary self-assessments, helping potential donors identify eligibility issues beforehand, thereby effectively increasing the on-site success rate of blood donation and reducing resource waste. Conclusion: The smart blood donation assistant validates the feasibility of the "Dify+MCP+RAG" technical architecture within the blood transfusion informatization field. The assistant not only improves the service experience for blood donors, but also, ensures the sustainable evolution of the system through its modular design and closed-loop optimization mechanism, thus providing valuable insights for the intelligent transformation of traditional blood donation service systems.

ObjectiveBased on the regulation of macrophage M2 polarization， this study aims to explore the molecular mechanism and action targets of the Qijia Rougan prescription and its key effector ingredients in anti-fibrosis， thereby providing a basis and reference for the development of new drugs for hepatic fibrosis. MethodsA rat model of hepatic fibrosis was established by subcutaneous injection of 40%CCl₄， followed by oral administration of Qijia Rougan granules. The volume of collagen fibers was detected using Masson staining， the fibrosis markers Collagen Ⅰ and α-SMA were detected using immunohistochemistry， the proportion of M2 macrophages was detected by flow cytometry. The expression levels of M2 macrophage phenotype markers CD163 and CD206 were detected using immunofluorescence double staining. Western blot was used to detect the levels of the transforming growth factor-β （TGF-β）， platelet derived growth factor subunit B （PDGFB）， interleukin-10 （IL-10）， phosphorylated Janus kinase 1 （p-JAK1）， and phosphorylated signal transducer and activator of transcription 6 （p-STAT6）. Real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR was used to detect the relative expression levels of JAK1， STAT6， Arginase 1（Arg1）， and Fizz1. Based on the theory of serum pharmacology， liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and WENN analysis were used to obtain the active ingredients of Qijia Rougan prescription. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulation were performed to analyze the effector ingredients and their targets. The identified effector ingredients were interfered with IL-4-induced M2 polarization of RAW264.7 macrophage in vitro to validate the targets. ResultsQijia Rougan prescription significantly reduced the content of fibrosis markers α-SMA and Collagen Ⅰ， as well as collagen fiber content （P<0.05）. It decreased the proportion of M2 macrophages and the levels of related cytokines IL-10， TGF-β and PDGFB， and up-regulated the levels of p-JAK1 and p-STAT6 （P<0.05）. A total of 1 214 compounds were identified from Qijia Rougan prescription， medicated serum and blank serum， and 29 ingredients were finalized by Venn analysis， including 15 blood-entry prototypes and 14 drug metabolites. Molecular docking showed that enoxolone and berberine bound more strongly to JAK1， with binding free energies of -9.6 kcal·mol^-1（1 cal≈4.184 J） and -9.1 kcal·mol^-1， respectively. Molecular dynamics simulations showed that JAK1-enoxolone and JAK1-berberine exhibited stable simulation trajectories within 100 ns， with essentially identical conformations and high protein overlap before and after simulation. Their binding free energies were -25.18 5.0.81 kcal·mol^-1 and -27.39 7.0.85 kcal·mol^-1， respectively. The number of hydrogen bonds formed between JAK1 and enoxolone ranges from 0 to 5， and most of the time can be maintained at 2-3. In vitro intervention with enoxolone or berberine significantly reduced p-JAK1 and p-STAT6 levels （P<0.05）. ConclusionQijia Rougan prescription inhibits M2 macrophage polarization in hepatic fibrosis. Enoxolone and berberine are the key effector ingredients of Qijia Rougan prescription to inhibit macrophage M2 polarization through targeting JAK1 and modulating the JAK1/STAT6 signaling pathway， thereby ameliorating hepatic fibrosis. This study provides a basis for prescription optimization， clinical application and new drug development， as well as a reference for monolithic anti-hepatic fibrosis research.
