[Objective] To analyze the influencing factors of repeat blood donor lapsing using a zero-inflated poisson regression model (ZIP). [Methods] The blood donation behavior of 12 498 whole blood donors from 2020 was tracked until December 31, 2023. The factors influencing the frequency of blood donations in a given year was analyzed using ZIP, and donors with 0 blood donation in that year were considered to have lapsed. The changes in relevant influencing factors associated with each blood donation were measured and modeled for analysis. [Results] The zero-inflated part of ZIP showed that the risk of lapsing of male blood donors was 2.24 times that of female blood donors (OR 95% CI:1.864-2.696, P<0.001); the risk of lapsing of the 35-44 age group and over 45 age group was respectively 40% (OR 95% CI:0.455-0.790, P<0.001) and 61%(OR 95% CI:0.268-0.578, P<0.001) lower than that of the under 25 age group; the risk of lapsing for those who have donated blood twice and ≥3 times was respectively 50% (OR 95% CI:0.405-0.609, P<0.001) and 81% (OR 95% CI:0.154-0.225, P<0.001) lower than that of first-time donors; the risk of lapsing of those with junior high or high school education was 1.2 times that of those with a college degree or higher (OR 95% CI:1.033-1.384, P<0.05); the risk of lapsing for the divorced group was 2.02 times that of the married group (OR 95% CI:1.445-2.820, P<0.001); the risk of lapsing for those with an income (Yuan) of 10 000 to 50 000, 50 000 to 100 000 and more than 100 000 was respectively 0.67 (OR 95% CI:0.552-0.818, P<0.001), 0.72 (OR 95% CI:0.591-0.884, P=0.002) and 0.67 (OR 95% CI:0.535-0.834, P<0.001) times that of those with an income (Yuan) of less than 10 000. The results of the Poisson part are consistent with the results of the zero-inflated part in terms of age and education level. [Conclusion] Blood donor lapsing is overall related to factors such as gender, age, donation frequency, education, marital status and family income. It's essential to care for those blood donors prone to lapse to retain more regular blood donors.

Objective To study the distribution and trend of HIV-1 drug resistance mutation in Dalian blood donors be-tween 2011 and 2020.Methods The protease-reverse transcriptase(PR-RT)region was sequenced in Dalian blood donors tested HIV-1 positive between 2011 and 2020.Drug resistance mutation(DRM)rate and level of resistance to selected drugs were analyzed by the Stanford HIV Drug Resistance Database.Results DRM were detected in 17.2%(30/174)of samples,while transmitted drug resistance(TDR)was5.7%(10/174).Between2011 and2020,DRM and TDR rates in-creased significantly in 2019 and reached their highest levels in 2020(44.4%and 22.2%,respectively).DRM carriage was associated with people with college degree or above and with local residents(P<0.05).NNRTI DRMs were the most fre-quently detected(12.6%,22/174),followed by PIs(5.7%,10/174),with V179D/E/T and M46I being the main DRMs detected.Only one HIV-1strain(0.57%,1/174)carried a NRTI DRM(L74I).The overall rate of predicted high level re-sistance to antiretroviral drugs was 6.9%(12/174),with the highest proportion of NNRTI resistance(83.3%,10/12).Two samples were classified as highly resistant to EFV and NVP,accounting for 1.1%(2/174).CRF55_01B strains showed a significantly higher DRM rate than strains of other HIV-1 genotypes(P<0.05).Conclusion Between 2011 and 2020,the rate of HIV-1 DRMs in blood donors in Dalian showed a significant upward trend,particularly in 2019-2020,with NNRTI resistance being the most common.The combination of DRMs detection before and after implementation of ART un-der the latest national ART treatment plan would improve the effectiveness of HIV-1 prevention and control locally.

Objective To explore the flow chart and key points of etiological differential diagnosis of character"卜"sign in fetal three-vessel and trachea(3VT)view.Methods A retrospective study was performed on ultrasound images of 37 fetuses,who had"卜"sign in 3VT view during fetal heart ultrasound scanning in The Affiliated Suzhou Hospital of Nanjing Medical University from Aug.2020 to Oct.2023.The types of diseases with"卜"sign and the flow chart and key points of differential diagnosis were summarized.All cases were diagnosed by 2 experienced senior prenatal ultrasound doctors independently.Results The incidence of"卜"sign was 0.14％(37/27 019).Among the 37 fetuses with"卜"sign on 3VT view,13(35.14％)cases had complete transposition of great arteries(TGA),11(29.73％)had double outlet of right ventricle with abnormal relationship of great arteries(DORV/AA),7(18.92％)had truncus arteriosus(TA,van Praagh A1,A2 and A3),and 6(16.22％)had pulmonary atresia with ventricular septal defect(PA/VSD).During the process of differential diagnosis,the presence or absence of aorta and pulmonary arteries,the ventricle-artery connection relationship,and the blood supply to both lungs should be focused on,and the final diagnosis can be derived step by step according to the flow chart.The key points of differential diagnosis were as follows:the ventricle-artery connection was inconsistent in TGA;in DORV/AA both aorta and pulmonary artery were entirely or mostly from right ventricle without normal spiral relationship;in TA only a common artery trunk was detected,and main pulmonary artery or its branches were from the artery trunk;and in PANSD pulmonary artery was atresia and only aorta was detected,and the blood supply to both lungs was from ductus arteriosus and/or aortopulmonary collateral arteries.Conclusion The fetal differential diseases with"卜"sign in 3VT view include TGA,DORV/AA,TA(van Praagh A1,A2 and A3),and PA/VSD.Understanding the flow chart and key points of differential diagnosis can improve the prenatal detection rate and diagnosis of related malformations.

Objective To construct lipid nanoparticles(lipopeptide-lipid nanoparticle,LP-LNP)with novel lipopeptides as adjuvants,and initially explore their synergistic effect on mRNA vaccines.Methods Two novel lipopeptides,SS-10 and SQ18,were designed and synthesized.Microfluidic technology was used to encapsulate lipopeptides in different proportions,as well as mRNAs encoding enhanced green fluorescent protein(eGFP),firefly luciferase(F-luc),and ovalbumin(OVA)into lipid nanoparticles to construct an mRNA delivery system with novel lipopeptides as adjuvants(LP-LNP).The particle size and polydispersity coefficient of LP-LNP were measured using dynamic light scattering.The activation effect on Toll-like receptors 2(TLR2)was detected using HEK-BlueTM mTLR2 reporter cells to screen the optimal lipopeptide ratio.The preferred LP-LNP-eGFP-mRNA was transfected into HEK293T cells,and the expression of eGFP was observed under a fluorescence microscope.In vivo imaging was used to investigate the expression level of LP-LNP-F-luc-mRNA in mice.Flow cytometry was used to evaluate the ability of LP-LNP-OVA-mRNA to induce the maturation of dendritic cells(DCs)in draining lymph nodes and cross-presentation of antigens after immunization.Results Lipopeptides SQ18 and SS-10 were incorporated into LNP at 0.50％and 0.75％molar ratios,respectively,to obtain LP-LNP with uniform particle size,high encapsulation efficiency,and good in vitro safety.The ability of this formulation to activate TLR2 was significantly stronger than the positive control Pam2CSK4(P＜0.01).The preferred LP-LNP obtained effective in vitro transfection,and LP-LNP prepared with SQ18 at 0.50％molar ratio had significantly better in vivo transfection efficiency than traditional LNP(P＜0.01),and significantly promoted the maturation of DCs in draining lymph nodes and cross-presentation of antigens(P＜0.05).Conclusion LP-LNP with novel lipopeptides as adjuvants can enhance the delivery capacity of mRNA and further improve the immune effect of mRNA vaccines.

Objective:To understand the real experience of caregivers of children with craniopharyngioma-associated hypothalamic obesity (CP-HO) based on the chronic disease trajectory model, so as to provide a reference for formulating corresponding disease management plans.Methods:From May 2023 to July 2023, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 17 caregivers of children with CP-HO who were admitted to the Department of Neurosurgery, Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University through purposive sampling. The interview data were analyzed by Colaizzi 7-step analysis method.Results:The 17 caregivers of children with CP-HO were 24 to 46 years old, including 3 males and 14 females. A total of 3 themes were extracted. Prodromal phase of weight: lack of disease cognition and weakening of self-concept; during the period of weight increase, the demand burden became prominent and the life pattern changed; weight stability: pressure, hope, and insight into the value of life.Conclusions:For promoting a good disease response of caregivers and improving the weight management effect of children and the quality of family life, medical staff should pay attention to and understand the disease care experience of children with CP-HO, and provide comprehensive and systematic solution strategies.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characteristics of three patients with Immune dysregulation, polyendocrinopathy, enteropathy, X-linked (IPEX) syndrome.Methods:Three patients with IPEX syndrome diagnosed at the Children′s Hospital of Fudan University from January 24, 2013 to July 29, 2019 were selected as the study subjects. Their clinical features, laboratory investigations and results of genetic testing were summarized. Treatment and prognosis were also explored.Results:All of the three children had developed the disorder during infancy. One child had initial features including diabetes and diabetic ketoacidosis, whilst the other two had initiated by diarrhea. All patients had gastrointestinal involvement, and one was diagnosed as very early onset inflammatory bowel disease by colonoscopy and biopsy. Two children also had endocrine glands involvement. One child had manifested type 1 diabetes and positivity for thyroglobulin and thyroid peroxidase antibodies, though his thyroid function had remained normal. Another one had hypothyroidism and was treated by levothyroxine. Genetic testing revealed that all children had harbored missense variants of the FOXP3 gene, including c. 1222G>A (p.V408M), c. 767T>C (p.M256T) and c. 1021A>G (p.T341A). The clinical symptoms of one patient were alleviated following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. One patient was stable after treatment with infliximab plus insulin, and one child had died of refractory septic shock and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome at 3 months old. Conclusion:FOXP3 gene variant-associated IPEX syndrome may have very early onset and diverse clinical manifestations. For male patients with infantile onset chronic diarrhea, multiple endocrine or multiple system involvement, genetic testing is recommended, which may facilitate early diagnosis, treatment and genetic counseling.

Purpose To investigate the risk factors of severe hypocalcemia after ultrasound-guided thermal ablation for secondary hyperparathyroidism.Materials and Methods A retrospective case-control study was used to study 91 patients with uremia complicated with secondary hyperparathyroidism in the First People's Hospital of Yulin from May 2019 to May 2023.All patients underwent ultrasound-guided thermal ablation and were divided into severe hypocalcemia group(SH)and non-SH group according to postoperative blood calcium levels.The difference of clinical data between the two groups was compared,and the independent risk factors of SH were investigated by multivariate Logistic regression analysis.Results A total of 317 glands were ablated in 49 cases of microwave ablation and 42 cases of radiofrequency ablation.SH occurred in 57 cases(62.64%)after ablation.The comparison of clinical data between the two groups showed that there were significant differences in the preoperative intact parathyroid hormone(iPTH),decline rate of iPTH 1 d,preoperative serum alkaline phosphatase,the proportion of parathyroid glands≥4 and the total gland volume between the two groups(all P<0.05).Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis was used to obtain the best cut-off point of iPTH 1 d decline rate,the result was 74.59%,the area under the curve was 0.866(95%CI 0.787-0.945)(P<0.05),the sensitivity was 84.2%,and the specificity was 78.1%.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that preoperative alkaline phosphatase(OR=1.015,95%CI 1.005-1.025,P=0.030)and decline rate of iPTH 1 d≥74.59%(OR=30.423,95%CI 5.938-155.858,P<0.001)and parathyroid glands≥4(OR=4.355,95%CI 1.027-18.469,P=0.046)were independent risk factors for postoperative SH(all P<0.05).Conclusion Preoperative alkaline phosphatase and decline rate of iPTH 1 d≥74.59%and the number of parathyroid glands≥4 are independent risk factors for SH after thermal ablation.

Objective To observe the risk factors of recurrence after ultrasound-guided thermal ablation for treating uremia secondary hyperparathyroidism(SHPT).Methods Totally 59 patients with uremia SHPT who underwent ultrasound-guided thermal ablation were enrolled,including 23 cases with(relapse group)and 36 without SHPT recurrence(non relapsed group).Clinical data were compared between groups,univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were performed to screen independent risk factors of SHPT recurrence.Results There were significant differences of serum free thyroxine(FT4),urea,intact parathyroid hormone(iPTH)1 day after ablation,1 day decrease rate of iPTH,the maximum diameter of the largest nodule,ablation time,total ablation energy,energy to volume ratio and the proportion of 1 day decrease rate of iPTH≤90%between groups(all P＜0.05).Higher urea,lower energy to volume ratio and 1 day decrease rate of iPTH≤90%were all independent risk factors of SHPT recurrence(all P＜0.05).Conclusion Higher urea,lower energy to volume ratio and 1 day decrease rate of iPTH≤90%were independent risk factors of recurrence after ultrasound-guided thermal ablation for treating uremia SHPT.

Objective:To investigate the differences in understanding and diagnosis of polycystic ovary syn-drome(PCOS)among obstetricians and gynecologists with different clinical experiences,in order to promote com-munication and improve medical quality.Methods:This was a multi-center cross-sectional survey.Information on participants'basic information and their knowledge of PCOS comorbidities and treatment management was col-lected online.Physicians were divided into two groups according to their experience:experienced(>200 consulta-tions/year)and inexperienced(≤200 consultations/year).The differences in the diagnosis and treatment of PCOS among different groups were compared.Logistic regression analysis was used to explore other factors that might influence the diagnosis and treatment of PCOS.Results:1689 questionnaires were finally included,among which 95 were experienced and 1594 were inexperienced.①In the comparison of basic conditions,the proportion of experienced persons in tertiary hospitals and reproductive endocrinology specialties was higher than that of in-experienced persons(P<0.05);The percentage of experienced persons who predicted patients with comorbid insulin resistance(proportion>30%)and predicted comorbid overweight/obesity(proportion 30%-50%)was higher than that of less experienced persons(P<0.05).②There was no significant difference in the evaluation of PCOS and its complications among different groups(P>0.05).Logistic regression suggested that different expe-riencers did not significantly affect the assessment of androgens,OGTT and lipid testing(P>0.05).③There was no statistical significance in the choice of treatment for those with no fertility need(P>0.05).For those with fertili-ty needs,metformin and letrozole were more actively selected by experienced group than inexperience(P<0.05).In terms of weight loss,experienced participants were more active in using metformin(P<0.05)and were more likely to choose1.0 or1.5 g/d(P<0.05)than those with inexperience.Conclusions:There was no signifi-cant difference in PCOS assessment among participants with different experience,but in treatment,experienced participants were better able to take into account the multi-system abnormalities brought by PCOS,and at the same time,they give more comprehensive and accurate treatment opinions on patients with or without fertility needs.

Objective:To evaluate and summarize the best evidence of energy and protein intake targets and calculation in adult critically ill patients, and to provide evidence-based basis for critical nutrition management.Methods:Evidence related to energy and protein intake targets and calculation of adult critically ill patients, including guideline, expert consensus, systematic review and evidence summary, were systematically searched in PubMed, Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL), Embase, Cochrane Library, UpToDate, BMJ Best Practice, Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI), Web of Science, SinoMed, Medive, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang database, VIP database, Guidelines International Network (GIN), National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), National Guideline Clearinghouse (NGC), Registered Nurses Association of Ontario (RNAO), and Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) from January 2012 to June 2022. Two researchers independently evaluated the quality of the included literatures using the JBI Evidence-based Health Care Center evaluation tool and the Appraisal of Clinical Practice Guidelines for Research and Evaluation Ⅱ (AGREE Ⅱ), extracted and summarized the best evidence for the nutritional intake goal and calculation of adult critically ill patients, and described the evidence.Results:A total of 18 literatures were included, including 5 clinical guidelines, 8 expert consensus, 3 systematic reviews and 2 evidence summaries. After literature quality evaluation, 18 articles were all enrolled. The evidence was summarized from the four aspects, including energy target calculation method, dose body weight, energy and protein intake target, and calculation method, 24 pieces of the best evidence were finally formed.Conclusions:The best evidence of energy and protein intake targets and calculation for critically ill patients was summarized based on evidence-based. Clinical medical staff can choose indirect calorimetry to calculate energy goals when equipment is available. Patient's height, body weight should be recorded accurately, dose body weight can be determined by body mass index (BMI). Meanwhile, blood urea nitrogen (BUN) loss, fat-free body weight, simple formulas and other methods should be used to continuously evaluate and adjust protein intake targets, to achieve the purpose of optimizing intensive nutrition support.
