[Objective] To explore the current status, influencing factors, and serological characteristics of occult hepatitis B virus infection (OBI) among blood donors in Xuzhou, so as to provide data support for improving blood safety screening strategies. [Methods] Blood samples from blood donors from January 2019 to December 2023 in Xuzhou were tested using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for serological markers and transaminase levels. Qualified samples were then subjected to nucleic acid testing (NAT). Statistical analysis was performed on the gender, age, education level, and occupation of HBV-infected donors. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify risk factors and epidemiological trends in OBI donors. Chemiluminescence immunoassay was used to quantify the levels of anti-HBs, HBeAg, anti-HBe, and anti-HBc in OBI donors and eligible donors (control group). [Results] Among the 545 292 blood donors, there were 388 OBI donors were identified, with a positive rate of 0.07%. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that male gender, age >45 years, education below college level, and occupation as a farmer were associated risk factors for OBI infection. Among the 388 OBI donors, the predominant serological patterns were anti-HBs and anti-HBc positive (48.71%), anti-HBs, anti-HBe, and anti-HBc positive (16.75%), and anti-HBc alone positive (16.49%). In contrast, the most common patterns among eligible donors were anti-HBs alone positive (46.96%) and serologically negative (26.52%). Anti-HBs levels in OBI donors were significantly lower than those in eligible donors across all patterns (P<0.05). For donors positive for anti-HBc, the distribution of anti-HBs levels in OBI donors was predominantly <100 IU/L, significantly lower than that in eligible donors (P<0.05), while and the proportion of eligible donors with anti-HBs levels >1 000 IU/L was higher than that in OBI donors (P<0.05). [Conclusion] There is a certain proportion of OBI infections among blood donors in Xuzhou, with an overall declining trend. NAT contributes to improved detection rates of HBV infections. The epidemiological distribution of OBI donors in terms of gender, age, education, and occupation differs from that of eligible donors, and there are also differences in serological characteristics between the two groups.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection in the treatment of peripheral T-cell lymphoma (PTCL) in a real-world setting.Methods:This was a real-world ambispective cohort study (MOMENT study) (Chinese clinical trial registry number: ChiCTR2200062067). Clinical data were collected from 198 patients who received mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection as monotherapy or combination therapy at 37 hospitals from January 2022 to January 2023, including 166 patients in the retrospective cohort and 32 patients in the prospective cohort; 10 patients in the treatment-na?ve group and 188 patients in the relapsed/refractory group. Clinical characteristics, efficacy and adverse events were summarized, and the overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were analyzed.Results:All 198 patients were treated with mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection for a median of 3 cycles (range 1-7 cycles); 28 cases were treated with mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection as monotherapy, and 170 cases were treated with the combination regimen. Among 188 relapsed/refractory patients, 45 cases (23.9%) were in complete remission (CR), 82 cases (43.6%) were in partial remission (PR), and 28 cases (14.9%) were in disease stabilization (SD), and 33 cases (17.6%) were in disease progression (PD), with an objective remission rate (ORR) of 67.6% (127/188). Among 10 treatment-na?ve patients, 4 cases (40.0%) were in CR, 5 cases (50.0%) were in PR, and 1 case (10.0%) was in PD, with an ORR of 90.0% (9/10). The median follow-up time was 2.9 months (95% CI 2.4-3.7 months), and the median PFS and OS of patients in relapsed/refractory and treatment-na?ve groups were not reached. In relapsed/refractory patients, the difference in ORR between patients with different number of treatment lines of mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection [ORR of the second-line, the third-line and ≥the forth-line treatment was 74.4% (67/90), 73.9% (34/46) and 50.0% (26/52)] was statistically significant ( P = 0.008). Of the 198 PTCL patients, 182 cases (91.9%) experienced at least 1 time of treatment-related adverse events, and the incidence rate of ≥grade 3 adverse events was 66.7% (132/198), which was mainly characterized by hematologic adverse events. The ≥ grade 3 hematologic adverse events mainly included decreased lymphocyte count, decreased neutrophil count, decreased white blood cell count, and anemia; non-hematologic adverse events were mostly grade 1-2, mainly including pigmentation disorders and upper respiratory tract infection. Conclusions:The use of mitoxantrone hydrochloride liposome injection-containing regimen in the treatment of PTCL has definite efficacy and is well tolerated, and it is a new therapeutic option for PTCL patients.

Objective To establish a reference intervals(RIs)of serum squamous cell carcinoma antigen(SCC-Ag)in healthy population in Nanning region and provide clinical evidence to support diagnosis and prognosis of squamous cell carcinoma.Methods A total of 10 197 reference individuals who joined a routine physical examina-tion in the Health Management Center of Guangxi International Zhuang Medical Hospital from March 2019 to De-cember 2021 were collected.The level of serum SCC-Ag was detected by chemiluminescence microparticle immuno-assay.The Mann-Whitney U test was applied to compare the differences in serum SCC level between genders or ad-jacent age groups.The unilateral 95th percentile determined the upper limit of the RIs by the nonparametric method.Another 1 035 healthy subjects with the same conditions as the reference population were selected for refer-ence validation.Results The serum SCC-Ag level showed a skewed distribution(Z＝0.08,P＜0.05).The ser-um SCC-Ag level of males was considerably higher than that of females.There was significant difference in serum SCC-Ag level between males aged 18－30 and 31－40,51－60 and 61－90(P＜0.05).There was significant difference in serum SCC-Ag level between females aged 18－30 and 31－40,31－40 and 41－50,51－60 and 61－ 90(P＜0.05).The reference intervals of serum SCC-Ag was as follows:0－1.64 ng/mL for males and females aged 18－30 years;0－1.57 ng/mL and 0－1.70 ng/mL for males aged 31－60 years and 61－90 years,respec-tively;0－1.50 ng/mL,0－1.52 ng/mL and 0－1.42 ng/mL for females aged 31－40 years,41－60 years and 61－90 years,respectively.Conclusions The RIs of serum SCC-Ag in healthy population in the Nanning region are successfully established according to different genders and ages.

Objective:To study the past 10 years' experiences of neonatal hydrocephalus in a single-center.Methods:From January 2010 to December 2019, clinical data of infants with hydrocephalus admitted to Neonatology Department of our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. The infants were assigned into different groups according to gestational age, different etiologies and treatments. Their clinical characteristics and outcomes were compared.Results:A total of 223 infants with hydrocephalus were included. 136 (61.0%) infants were in the preterm group and 87 (39.0%) in the full-term group. The incidence of post-intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) hydrocephalus in preterm infants was significantly higher than full-term infants ( P<0.001). According to the etiologies, 58 infants (26.0%) had congenital hydrocephalus (congenital group), 82 cases (36.8%) developed post-ICH hydrocephalus (ICH group), 48 cases (21.5%) had post-CNS-infection hydrocephalus (infection group) and 35 cases (15.7%) had post-ICH+CNS-infection hydrocephalus (ICH+infection group). The incidences of perinatal asphyxia, neonatal resuscitation and endotracheal intubation within 3 d after birth in the ICH group were significantly higher than the other groups ( P<0.05). Among the four groups, the infection group had the highest incidence of neonatal sepsis, the congenital group had the highest incidence of patent ductus arteriosus and the ICH group had the highest incidence of respiratory diseases (all P<0.05).137 cases (61.4%) received non-surgical therapy, 48 cases (21.5%) had temporary drainage, 37 cases (16.6%) with permanent shunt and 1 case (0.4%) intracranial hematoma removal. The congenital group and ICH group with permanent shunt showed significantly higher rate of improvement than temporary drainage group and non-surgical group ( P<0.001). Conclusions:The main etiologies of neonatal hydrocephalus are ICH and CNS infection. The incidence of post-ICH hydrocephalus in premature infants was quite high. Hydrocephalus of different etiologies have different comorbidities. Maternal and infant care during pregnancy and delivery, prevention of neonatal sepsis and ICH are crucial in the prevention of hydrocephalus. More studies are needed for better treatment.

Pulmonary blast injury has become the main type of trauma in modern warfare, characterized by externally mild injuries but internally severe injuries, rapid disease progression, and a high rate of early death. The injury is complicated in clinical practice, often with multiple and compound injuries. Currently, there is a lack of effective protective materials, accurate injury detection instrument and portable monitoring and transportation equipment, standardized clinical treatment guidelines in various medical centers, and evidence-based guidelines at home and abroad, resulting in a high mortality in clinlcal practice. Therefore, the Trauma Branch of Chinese Medical Association and the Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized military and civilian experts in related fields such as thoracic surgery and traumatic surgery to jointly develop the Clinical treatment guideline for pulmonary blast injury ( version 2023) by combining evidence for effectiveness and clinical first-line treatment experience. This guideline provided 16 recommended opinions surrounding definition, characteristics, pre-hospital diagnosis and treatment, and in-hospital treatment of pulmonary blast injury, hoping to provide a basis for the clinical treatment in hospitals at different levels.

Objective:To evaluate the diagnostic performance of the prostate imaging reporting and data system version 2.1 (PI-RADS v2.1) based on multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) in the detection of clinically significant prostate cancer (csPCa).Methods:A total of 561 patients who underwent prostate mpMRI in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University from June 2015 to December 2020 due to elevated prostate specific antigen were collected ambispectively. The patients were divided into csPCa group (276 cases) and non-csPCa group (285 cases) according to pathological findings. Prostate were scored according to the PI-RADS v2.1 scoring standard by a junior and a senior radiologist. The prostate volume was measured and the prostate specific antigen density (PSAD) was calculated. The diffusion-weighted imaging and dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI images were processed to measure the quantitative parameters of the index lesion, including apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), volume transfer constant (K trans) and rate constant (K ep) values. The Mann-Whitney U test was used to compare the difference in parameters between the two groups. The predictors of csPCa were screened by logistic regression analysis. Predictive model of multi-parameter was established. The receiver operator characteristic curves were used to evaluate the efficacy of PI-RADS v2.1 and the model in diagnosing csPCa, and the comparisons of area under the curve (AUC) were conducted by DeLong test. Results:Compared with non-csPCa group, the patients in csPCa group had higher PI-RADS score of senior physician, PSAD, K trans and K ep value, lower ADC value ( Z=-16.69, -12.49, -3.43, -4.67, 13.91, all P<0.001). The PI-RADS scores of senior physician (OR=3.064, 95%CI 2.428-3.866, P<0.001), PSAD (OR=1.554, 95%CI 1.170-2.064, P=0.002) and ADC value (OR=0.095, 95%CI 0.032-0.288, P<0.001) were the predictors of csPCa. The AUC of junior, senior physician PI-RADS and combined prediction model were 0.861 (95%CI 0.830-0.892), 0.895 (95%CI 0.868-0.922) and 0.923 (95%CI 0.898-0.944). The pairwise difference was statistically significant (the PI-RADS score between the junior and senior physicians Z=3.24, P=0.001, the difference between the PI-RADS score of junior physician and prediction model Z=5.54, P<0.001, the difference between the PI-RADS score of senior physician and prediction model Z=4.20, P<0.001). Conclusion:Based on mpMRI, the application of PI-RADS v2.1 by junior and senior radiologists has the high diagnostic efficacy for csPCa, and the multi-parameter model has the best diagnostic efficacy for csPCa.

Objective:To investigate the current status of emotional intelligence of standardized training nurses and explore the influencing factors.Methods:A total of 312 standardized training nurses from the Fifth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University and the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University were investigated from May to June 2020 with general information questionnaire and Nurses′ Emotional Intelligence Scale, and analyze the influencing factors of nurses′ emotional intelligence during the standar dized training period.Results:The total score of standardized training nurses′ emotional intelligence was (59.01 ± 8.24), the scoring rate was 73.76%, and the total average score of items was (3.69 ± 0.52). The average scores of the four dimensions from low to high were: self emotion assessment (3.86 ± 0.66), self emotion management (3.67 ± 0.71), self emotion application (3.64 ± 0.67) and emotion assessment of others (3.58 ± 0.65). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that political outlook, whether it was an only child, and training time and willingness to engage in nursing work for a long time were the main influencing factors of standardized training nurses′ emotional intelligence, accounting for 32.6% of the variance.Conclusions:The emotional intelligence of standardized training nurses is at the medium level, which needs to be further improved. Hospital managers need to carry out positive intervention combined with relevant influencing factors to cultivate more excellent nursing talents for clinical practice.
