Objective: To evaluate the causal effects and population heterogeneity of Guangzhou′s Voluntary Blood Donation Privilege Certificate Policy on blood donation behavior, and to provide empirical evidence for optimizing blood management policies. Methods: Using an interrupted time series (ITS) design, we analyzed 30 quarters of blood collection data from Guangzhou Blood Center (from July 2018 to December 2025). Taking the third quarter of 2021 as the intervention node, we constructed ordinary least squares (OLS) regression models incorporating level and trend effects, and conducted stratified analyses by gender, age group, previous donation frequency, and per-donation volume. Results: The tiered incentive policy demonstrated significant heterogeneous effects. Apheresis donations showed sustained growth, with 2 units of component blood exhibiting a significant trend effect (β=304.58, P<0.001); high-frequency donors (11+ times) demonstrated sustained growth trends in apheresis donations. For whole blood, immediate effects were significant for donors with 1-2 previous donations (β=4 537.55, P<0.001) and 3-10 previous donations (β=2 159.69, P<0.05); high-frequency donors (11-30 times) showed sustained growth trends (P<0.01). Stratified by per-donation volume, 400 mL whole blood demonstrated a significant immediate effect (β=4 391.01, P<0.1), while 200 mL whole blood showed a significant declining trend (β=-893.24, P<0.01). Conclusion: The tiered incentive policy effectively enhanced blood donation participation while maintaining the donors’ altruistic motivations. Young and middle-aged adults primarily drove apheresis donations. The policy demonstrated immediate incentive effects on low-frequency whole blood donors and long-term retention effects on high-frequency donors. Per-donation volume showed an "upward migration" trend, optimizing the blood collection structure. Differentiated outreach, conversion and retention strategies are recommended to further strengthen blood supply security.

Objective:To study the effects of parenteral nutrition containing ω-3 fish oil fat emulsion on the inflammatory status of patients with intestinal fistula at the early stage.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 28 patients with intestinal fistula who were admitted to the Sixth Department of General Surgery of Anhui Provincial Second People's Hospital from November 2023 to May 2024.The patients were either divided into control group(n=15,parenteral nutrition alone group)or study group(n=13,parenteral nutrition plus ω-3 fish oil fat emulsion)according to whether ω-3 fish oil fat emulsion was added to parenteral nutrition.Both groups of patients received parenteral nutrition support treatment,and the study group was given ω-3 fish oil fat emulsion during treatment.The general information,inflammatory factors in the blood,nutrition,and immune status of two groups of patients were collected and compared.The feces samples on the first and 14th day of admission were collected and analyzed by 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing of gut microbiota.Results:There was no statistically significant difference in the general information,inflammation,nutrition,immune status,and gut microbiota between the two groups of patients on the first day of admission(P>0.05),indicating comparability between the two groups.After two weeks of parenteral nutrition support,the counts of red blood cells,white blood cells,platelets,lymphocytes,and levels of C-reactive protein,glutamate-pyruvate transaminase,aspartate aminotransferase,total bilirubin,direct bilirubin,total protein,albumin,and creatinine in the research group were similar to those in the control group without statistically significant differences(P>0.05).However,the counts of neutrophils and levels of blood urea nitrogen in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P=0.03 and P=0.01).In addition,the abundance of intestinal flora in the study group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05).At the genus level,the abundance of Bacteroides_uniformis,Parabacteroides_merdae,Alistipes_finegoldii,Streptococcus_constellatus,Christensenella_minuta were different between the two groups after two weeks of treatment(P<0.05).Conclusion:Parenteral nutrition containing ω-3 fish oil fat emulsion can reduce the counts of neutrophils,which may alleviate inflammatory responses for patients with intestinal fistula at the early stage.

Body weight abnormalities, including overweight, obesity, and underweight, have become a dual public health challenge in Chinese adults: overweight and obesity lead to a variety of chronic complications, while underweight increases the risks of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and organ dysfunction. To systematically address these issues, multidisciplinary experts in endocrinology, sports science, nutrition, and psychiatry from various regions have held multiple weight management seminars. Based on the latest epidemiological data and clinical evidence, they expanded the guideline to include assessment and intervention strategies for underweight, in addition to the core content of obesity management. This guideline outlines the etiological mechanisms, evaluation methods, and multidimensional management strategies for overweight and obesity, covering key areas such as diagnosis and assessment, medical nutrition therapy, exercise prescription, pharmacological intervention, and psychological support. It is intended to provide a scientific and standardized approach to weight management across the adult population, aiming to curb the rising prevalence of obesity, mitigate complications associated with abnormal body weight, and improve nutritional status and overall quality of life.

This study analyzed the epidemiological characteristics of imported malaria in Yunnan Province from 2020 to 2023,to provide scientific evidence for formulating measures to decrease imported malaria and prevent re-establishment of malaria transmission.Malaria data reported by the China Disease Prevention and Control Information System were analyzed to determine parasite species;sources of infection;temporal,spatial,and population distributions;and importation routes.A total of 828 malaria cases were reported in the province.Plasmodium vivax and Plasmodium falciparum accounted for 89.98％and 8.33％of cases,respectively.A total of 47.58％of cases were imported from Myanmar,and all P.falciparum malaria ca-ses were from Africa.Thirteen(81.25％)prefectures or municipalities reported malaria,among which Dehong,Baoshan,Kunming,and Lincang reported 94.32％of cases.A total of 52.54％of cases were in young men.The proportion of cross-bor-der personnel flow,land input,and aircraft input were 88.89％and 11.11％respectively.A total of 98.19％of patients sought medical care within 7 days after fever onset,and 82.85％initiated diagnosis for malaria,and 84.90％of diagnoses were con-firmed by health facilities at or below the county level.Imported malaria is a major challenge in preventing re-establishment of transmission in Yunnan.Most imported cases involved cross-border malaria transmission of mainly Plasmodium vivax between China and Myanmar.To achieve malaria elimination,vigilance of health staff in malaria diagnosis and treatment should be pro-moted,and intensive malaria health education should be provided to people traveling to malaria endemic territories,to enable individual protection,and timely diagnosis and treatment after return from endemic countries.

This study explored the effects and underlying mechanism of Raf kinase inhibitory protein(RKIP)on apoptosis in mast cells sensitized by Echinococcus granulosus cyst fluid.Bone marrow-derived mast cells(BMMCs)were isolated and cultured from RKIP knockout(KO)and wild-type(WT)C57BL/6 mice.Cells were divided into control and sensitized groups.The sensitized group was incubated for 24 h in RPMI1640 medium containing 10%serum from mice infected with E.granulosus,then activated for 3 h or 6 h with E.granulosus cyst fluid.The control group was incubated for 24 h in RPMI1640 medium,and then received an equal vol-ume of PBS.Cells and supernatants were collected for analysis.Flow cytometry was used to detect the expression of CD117 and FcεRⅠα on BMMCs.The levels of β-hexosaminidase,IL-4,and TNF-α in the supernatant were quantified with ELISA.Western blot analy-sis was used to assess expression changes in RKIP,apoptosis-related proteins,and pathway proteins in BMMC before and after sensi-tization.Flow cytometry analysis revealed that after 4 weeks of induction,the CD117 and FcεRⅠα double-positivity rates on both WT and KO BMMC exceeded 90%.ELISA indicated that the E.granulosus cyst fluid resulted in significantly greater β-hexosaminidase re-lease(F=16.88,P<0.05),and levels of IL-4(F=16.51,P<0.05)and TNF-α(F=9.78,P<0.05)in the KO sensitized group than the WT sensitized group.With respect to the WT control group,the WT sensitized group showed significantly down-regulated pro-tein expression levels of RKIP(F=8.20,P<0.05)and Bcl-2(F=101.40,P<0.01)after 3 h,but significantly up-regulated levels of p-PI3K(F=8.04,P<0.05),p-Akt(F=32.52,P<0.01),p-P65(F=13.29,P<0.05),and cleaved-caspase-3(F=46.34,P<0.01).With respect to the WT sensitized group,the KO sensitized group showed significantly up-regulated protein expression of p-PI3K(F=8.45,P<0.05),p-Akt(F=8.58,P<0.05),p-P65(F=11.02,P<0.05),and Bcl-2(F=84.50,P<0.001)after 3 h,but significantly down-regulated expression of cleaved-caspase-3(F=15.66,P<0.05).In conclusion,RKIP may inhibit the PI3K/Akt/NF-κB pathway,thereby inducing apoptosis in mast cells sensitized by E.granulosus cyst fluid.This process may help ease aller-gic reactions caused by mast cells in echinococcosis,thus offering a promising new approach for preventing and treating such reactions.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of 3D-printed navigation guided pudendal lead implantation on nervous regula-tion of lower urinary tract symptoms(LUTS)in male patients.Methods:Twenty-eight male patients who underwent perineal nervous regulation treatment for LUTS in Gongli Hospital of Pudong New Area from October 2021 to October 2023 were randomly divided into observation group and control group.The technology assisted with 3D-printed navigation to regulate the genital nerves was used in ob-servation group.And the patients in control group were treated with regulation of the genital nerves by routine puncture.Operation time of puncture,number of surgical punctures,and stimulator debugging time compared between the two groups.The improvement of post-operative symptoms and surgical complications of patients in the observation group were recorded as well.Result:A total of 12 male LUTS patients were included in the observation group,with an average age of 36.5±6.5 years,including 7 cases of frequent micturi-tion,3 cases of perineal pain,and 2 cases of dysuria.Four patients showed no significant improvement in symptoms,including two pa-tients with pain and two cases of frequent micturition who did not undergo secondary surgery.While the other eight patients showed sig-nificant improvement in symptoms.The average time for successful puncture in control group was(21.13±4.53)minutes,which was longer than that of the 3D-printed navigation group([10.32±3.42]min)significantly(P＜0.05).The average number of punctures in the ordinary puncture group was 5.62±1.43,which was significantly higher than that in the 3 D-printed navigation group(1.5±0.56).There was no statistically significant difference in the average time for stimulator debugging between the two groups of patients.The conversion rate of the 3D-printed navigation group in the second phase was 66.7％,which was higher than that(37.5％)significantly(P＜0.05).Conclusion:3D printing navigation of pudendal nerve electrode wire implantation can improve the accuracy of electrode implantation and the conversion rate to a certain extent,which has the advantages of reducing the difficulty of surgery.

In the process of strontium(Sr)isotope analysis,the separation and purification of Sr are crucial for obtaining high-precision Sr isotope ratios.In this work,ammonia solution was used as a precipitating agent to initially separate and purify Sr from geological samples through coprecipitation,followed by the combination with cation-exchange resin to quickly and effectively obtain high-purity Sr components.The experimental conditions of ammonia coprecipitation reaction were optimized using typical high Rb/Sr ratio(mass ratio)standard sample JR-2.The results showed that using 3 mL of ammonia(1 mol/L)as the precipitating agent,at 120℃for 1 h,could effectively remove more than 90%of Rb,Na and K,with Sr recovery exceeding 95%.To verify the stability and applicability of this separation process,geological standard samples(JR-2,BCR-2,AGV-2,BHVO-2,GSP-2,W-2a)with different rock types and Rb/Sr ratios were practically validated.The results demonstrated that the coprecipitation process with ammonia solution removed more than 90%of Rb,Na and K,with Sr recovery greater than 95%.To further assess the applicability of this method for samples with high Rb/Sr ratios,Rb was added to the rhyolite standard material JR-2,adjusting its Rb/Sr ratio to 500.The results showed that this separation process could still effectively achieve the separation of Rb and Sr,and high-precision Sr isotope analysis results were successfully obtained by combining thermal ionization mass spectrometer(TIMS).Ammonia solution,as a precipitating agent,offered advantages such as low cost,low procedural blanks,simplicity,and a wide range of applicability.Therefore,the combination of ammonia solution coprecipitation and cation-exchange resin enabled rapid Sr purification from geological samples,providing a novel separation approach for high-precision Sr isotope analysis of samples with high Rb/Sr ratios,with broad application prospects.

C-Reactive protein(CRP)is an important acute-phase response protein,which is widely used in the assessment of inflammation and cardiovascular disease risk,and acts as a pathogenic factor directly involved in the disease process of certain conditions.Therefore,developing immunosuppressants targeting CRP or investigating its pathogenic mechanisms is of significant importance.Most B-cell epitopes are conformational epitopes,and studying conformational epitopes is typically challenging.To date,no methods have been reported for mapping the conformational epitopes of CRP in solution.In this study,a rapid strategy was developed for studying conformational epitopes by combining hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry(HDX-MS)with multiparametric prediction of B-cell epitopes and protein secondary structure analysis.This approach was successfully applied to the binding sites and allosteric targets of the 115 kDa full pentameric CRP and the clinically used monoclonal antibody(mAb)5A8.The results showed that the amino acid residues 84-103,138-146,and 165-173 together form the potential conformational epitopes for mAb 5A8 on CRP,while the amino acid residues 21-32 and 175-178 were identified as potential allosteric targets.The discovery of the mAb 5A8 binding sites and allosteric targets was crucial for improving clinical diagnostic capabilities.Experimental results demonstrated that this workflow allowed rapid conformational epitope mapping of CRP under near-physiological conditions,with advantages such as high speed,high sensitivity,and high throughput.

As a cheap and effective antibiotic,sulfonamides are often used in animal husbandry.However,their residues in animal-derived foodstuffs will threaten human health.Consequently,a high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)method integrated with supramolecular solvent microextraction was successfully established for simultaneous quantification of sulfonamide residues sulfachlorpyridazine,sulfamethoxazole,sulfamethoxypyridazine and sulfadimethoxine in milk matrices.This approach exhibited prominent characteristics of operational simplicity,environmental sustainability,and high extraction efficiency.The supramolecular solvents prepared by tributyl octylphosphine tetrafluoroborate and tetrahydrofuran were employed as extraction solvents.The analytes underwent isolation and concentration via dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction(DLLME)prior to quantitative determination using high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC).The composition and microscopic morphology of the supramolecular solvent were characterized through a series of analytical techniques,including phase diagram,Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy,scanning electron microscopy,and inverted fluorescence microscopy and so on.The density and pH value of supramolecular solvents were determined.The extraction conditions were optimized through the one-factor experiments.The experimental results demonstrated that under the optimal extraction conditions,the four kinds of sulfonamide antibiotics exhibited excellent linearity within respective detection range(R2 ≥ 0.9998)and the limits of detection(LOD)were 0.67-1.45 μg/L.Compared with literature methods,this approach offered some advantages such as simplicity of operation and less reagent consumption,and could be used for analysis and detection of sulfonamide antibiotic residues in milk samples.The present method provided technical support for food safety regulation and paved a new way for the application of supramolecular solvents in the field of extraction and separation.
