[Objective] To conduct a retrospective statistical comparison of alanine aminotransferase (ALT) test values in blood donors prior to blood collection, aiming to analyze the objective characteristics of the population with elevated ALT levels (ALT>50 U/L) and provide reference data for adjusting the screening eligibility threshold for ALT. [Methods] The preliminary ALT screening data of 30 341 blood donor samples collected prior to blood donation from three smart blood donation sites at the Shenzhen Blood Center between 2022 and 2023 were extracted and compared with data from a health examination department of a tertiary hospital in Shenzhen (representing the general population, n=24 906). Both datasets were categorized and statistically described. A retrospective analysis was conducted to examine the associations between ALT test results and factors such as donors' gender, age, ethnicity, donation site, donation season, and frequency of blood donation. [Results] The ALT levels in both blood donors and the general population were non-normally distributed. The 95th percentile of ALT values was calculated as 61.4 U/L (male: 67.8 U/L, female: 39.3 U/L) for blood donors and 58.1 U/L (male: 63.7 U/L, female: 51.2 U/L) for the general population. The non-compliance rates (ALT>50 U/L) were 7.65% (2 321/30 341) in blood donors and 7.08% (1 763/24 906) in the general population. There were significant differences (P<0.05) in the ALT failure rate among blood donors based on gender, age, and donation site, but no significant differences (P>0.05) during the blood donation season. There was no statistically significant difference (P>0.05) in the positive rates of four serological markers (HBsAg, anti HCV, HIV Ag/Ab, anti TP) for blood screening pathogens between ALT unqualified and qualified individuals (2.05% vs 1.5%). If the ALT qualification threshold was raised from 50 U/L to 90 U/L, the non qualification rates of male and female blood donors would decrease from 9.82% (2 074/21 125) to 2.23% (471/21 125) and from 2.70% (249/9 216) to 0.75% (69/9 216), respectively. Among the 154 blood donors who donated blood more than 3 times, 88.31% of the 248 ALT test results were in the range of 50-90 U/L. Among them, 9 cases had ALT>130 U/L, and ALT was converted to qualified in subsequent blood donations. [Conclusion] There are differences in the ALT failure rate among blood donors of different genders and ages, and different blood donation sites and operators can also affect the ALT detection values of blood donors. The vast majority of blood donors with ALT failure are caused by transient and non pathological factors. With the widespread use of blood virus nucleic acid testing, appropriately increasing the ALT qualification threshold for blood donors can expand the qualified population and alleviate the shortage of blood sources, and the risk of blood safety will not increase.

[Objective] To investigate the factors associated with alanine aminotransferase (ALT) abnormalities in multi-ethnic blood donors across five Zang autonomous prefectures in the plateau regions of Qinghai Province, and to provide evidence for ensuring blood safety and formulating screening strategies. [Methods] A retrospective analysis was performed on the ALT abnormal test results of blood donors in the Zang autonomous prefectures of Qinghai from 2022 to 2024. The correlations between ALT levels and factors including gender, age, altitude, and infectious markers were investigated. [Results] The overall ALT unqualified rate among blood donors in this region was 9.01%. Significant differences in ALT levels were observed across genders and age groups (P<0.05). Variations in ALT abnormality rates were also noted among different plateau regions (P<0.05). Overall, ALT values exhibited an increasing trend with rising altitude. The average ALT unqualified rates were 11.19% in Zang donors, 7.96% in Han donors, and 4.79% in donors from other ethnic groups (P<0.05). No statistically significant association was observed between ALT abnormality and the presence of HBV/HCV infectious markers (P>0.05). [Conclusion] In the plateau areas of Qinghai, multi-ethnic blood donors have a relatively high ALT levels and ALT unqualified rates, showing distinct regional characteristics. ALT elevation in voluntary blood donors is related to non-pathological factors such as gender, age, and dietary habits, but not to infectious indicators.

Sepsis-induced lung injury is a common type of sepsis complicated with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome， whose uncontrolled inflammatory response and oxidative stress are the key pathological mechanisms. As an important pathway of anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative stress， the nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related factor 2 （Nrf2） signaling pathway is very important in the occurrence and development of sepsis-induced lung injury. This review summarizes relevant research conducted over the past decade on the regulation of the Nrf2 signaling pathway by traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） to ameliorate sepsis- induced lung injury. It has been found that 14 kinds of TCM effective ingredients （including five types of compounds： flavonoids， terpenes， alkaloids， saponins， phenols） and 6 kinds of compound preparations （including three types of formulas： heat-clearing and detoxifying formulas， purgative formulas for promoting bowel movement， and formulas for reinforcing vital qi and consolidating the constitution） can inhibit inflammatory responses and oxidative stress by activating Nrf2 signaling pathway and intervening in related pathways such as those involving Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1， heme oxygenase-1， antioxidant response element and AMP-activated protein kinase， thereby alleviating sepsis-induced lung injury.

Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of pudendal nerve modulation (PNM) in the treatment of female pudendal neuralgia (PN)，so as to promote the clinical application of this technique. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 20 female PN patients who failed conservative treatment at Gongli Hospital during Nov.2020 and Oct.2023.All patients underwent simultaneous PNM and sacral nerve modulation (SNM) with the assistance of 3D printing navigation.Dual-stage test electrodes for PNM and SNM were implanted，followed by alternate therapeutic trial for each modality.Secondary conversion rates and longitudinal outcomes，including visual analogue score (VAS)，patient health questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9)，and quality of life (QoL) scores were compared preoperatively，post-stage Ⅰ，and at 3，6，and 12 months post-stage Ⅱ. Results: All operations were successful.After the trial phase，the secondary conversion rate for PNM was significantly higher than that for SNM; 16 patients (16/20，80%) chose the second-phase PNM implantation surgery，3 (3/20，15%) chose second-phase SNM implantation，and 1 (1/20，5%) had electrodes removed due to ineffective results from both trials.Further assessment revealed that the improvements in VAS，PHQ-9，and QoL scores for PNM patients were significantly better than those for SNM patients after the first phase of surgery and at 3，6 and 12 months after the second-phase conversion (P<0.05).No complications such as electrode migration or infection were observed during the follow-up of 12-15 months. Conclusion: PNM provides more effective relief of pain symptoms and improvements in depressive states for female PN patients compared to SNM.With the assistance of 3D printing navigation，the operation is simple and safe，and offers stable therapeutic effects.It is worthy of clinical promotion and application.

Primary liver cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors of the digestive system， and the “inflammation-to-cancer transformation” （ICT） of chronic hepatitis is the core pathological process of the progression of chronic hepatitis to liver cancer. Persistent and uncontrolled liver inflammation in patients with chronic hepatitis often leads to repeated liver tissue damage and repair， which gradually develops into liver fibrosis and cirrhosis， eventually leading to malignant transformation through the mechanisms such as gene mutation and microenvironment imbalance. ICT in chronic hepatitis is the key link between chronic hepatitis and liver cancer， and its dynamic evolution involves various pathogenic factors such as dampness， heat， deficiency， toxin， and stasis； among which damp-heat and vital energy deficiency are the initiating factors for ICT of chronic hepatitis， while intermingled stasis and toxin are the key pathological products that promote malignant transformation. Based on the concept of preventive treatment， traditional Chinese medicine can effectively delay and even block the ICT of chronic hepatitis by regulating inflammation， metabolism， and abnormal cell proliferation through multiple targets， which provides important strategies and research directions for the prevention and treatment of liver cancer.

BACKGROUND:The researchers noted that upon embedding clinical-grade catgut and polyglycolide-co-lactide threads in the normal human"Zusanli"(ST 36)acupoint,the local area displayed temporal and inflammatory stimulatory effects,resulting in thread differentiation.However,the underlying mechanism behind thread involvement remains to be studied. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the expression levels of calcitonin gene-related peptide,5-hydroxytryptamine,leukotriene B4,and bradykinin at point"Zusanli"(ST 36)in rats after embedding catgut and polyglycolide-co-lactide respectively at different time points. METHODS:110 male SD rats were divided into a blank group(10 rats),a catgut embedding group(50 rats),and a polyglycolide-co-lactide embedding group(50 rats)according to the random number table method.In the blank group,no thread was embedded.In catgut embedding group and the polyglycolide-co-lactide embedding group,the thread was embedded in the left side of the ST36 acupoint once.Tissue was collected from the left side of the ST36 acupoint area 8 hours,3,7,14,and 21 days after embedding.The expression levels of calcitonin gene-related peptide and 5-hydroxytryptamine were detected by immunohistochemistry,and the contents of leukotriene B4 and bradykinin were detected by ELISA. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the blank group,the expression of calcitonin gene-related peptide,5-hydroxytryptamine,bradykinin,and leukotriene B4 was significantly increased in the 8 hours,3,7,14,and 21 days of the catgut embedding group(P<0.05);calcitonin gene-related peptide expression was significantly increased in 8 hours,3,7,and 14 days in the polyglycolide-co-lactide embedding group(P<0.05);the expression of bradykinin was significantly increased in 8 hours,3,and 7 days(P<0.05);the expression of leukotriene B4 was significantly increased at 8 hours,3,7,14,and 21 days(P<0.05).(2)Compared with the polyglycolide-co-lactide embedding group,the expression of calcitonin gene-related peptide was increased at 7,14,21 days after thread embedding(P<0.05),and the expression of 5-hydroxytryptamine was increased at 8 hours,3,7,14 and 21 days after thread embedding(P<0.05);contents of leukotriene B4 and bradykinin in tissues were increased at 8 hours,3,14 and 21 days after embedding(P<0.05)in the catgut embedding group.(3)The results show that calcitonin gene-related peptide,5-hydroxytryptamine,leukotriene B4,and bradykinin in the acupoint region alter after catgut embedding in the ST36 of rats,as well as the alteration of calcitonin gene-related peptide,leukotriene B4,and bradykinin is found in the acupoint region after polyglycolide-co-lactide embedding in rats,which may be one of the mechanisms involved in the local time sensitive stimulus effects caused by embedding threads at acupoints.Moreover,there is a discernible difference between the two thread types.

To provide a theoretical basis for different drug decision-making scenarios by conducting a comprehensive clinical evaluation of nusinersen.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of transurethral resection of bladder tumor(TURBT)in treating cystitis glandularis(CG),and to explore the influencing factors.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 243 CG patients treated with TURBT during Jan.2013 and Dec.2020 in our hospitals.Postoperative efficacy was assessed using global response assessment(GRA).The correlation between GRA score and the demographic characteristics,comorbidities,initial complaints,and postoperative recurrence was determined with logistic regression analysis.Results Among the 243 patients,3.70％(9/243)had dysplasia,2.47％(6/243)had exuberant hyperplasia of Brinell's nest,and 2.06％(5/243)had intestinal metaplasia.The mean GRA score was(2.02±0.72)after a follow-up of(47.10±28.53)months.Re-operation was performed in 10.29％(25/243)of the patients due to recurrence,and the improvement of hydronephrosis and dysuria was 70.59％(12/17)and 50.00％(15/30),respectively.Pelvic fat increase developed in 1 patient(0.41％)after surgery.Logistic regression analysis showed that postoperative GRA score was not significantly correlated with demographic characteristics,body mass index,comorbidities,alcoholism and postoperative recurrence(P＞0.05).Conclusion TURBT is an effective method in the treatment of CG,which can significantly improve patients'hydronephrosis and dysuria.However,approximately 10％of the patients experience recurrence,necessitating further surgery,which suggests the need for vigilance regarding potential recurrence during treatment.

Objective:To investigate the effect of maternal serum vitamin D on fetal long bone development.Methods:A retrospective collection of 1 193 first-time pregnant women who visited our hospital′s prenatal diagnosis center from July 2018 to June 2020 was conducted. All underwent prenatal fetal ultrasound examination and serum vitamin D level detection. Based on the dosage of vitamin D administered after the first vitamin D test, participants were divided into the basic dosage group(vitamin D 3, 1 600 IU/d, orally) and the adequate supplementation group(vitamin D 2 injection 600 000 IU/2 weeks, intramuscular injection). The serum 25-(OH)D levels of the two groups of pregnant women were compared at 12 and 24 weeks of treatment, as well as the long bone growth of their fetuses. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the factors influencing fetal long length. Results:Compared to the basic dosage group, the adequate supplementation group showed a significant increase in serum 25-(OH)D levels in pregnant women at 8 weeks, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks of treatment. The adequate supplementation group also significantly increased fetal long bone length at 12 weeks[(4.93±0.75) cm vs(4.61±0.73) cm, P<0.05] and 24 weeks of treatment [(7.92±0.84) cm vs(7.25±0.92) cm, P<0.05], with the difference between the two groups being more pronounced at 24 weeks of treatment. Maternal height, basal vitamin D level, and vitamin D level at 24 weeks of gestation were positively correlated with fetal long bone length. Conclusion:Pregnant women should maintain a relatively high level of basal vitamin D, and pay attention to the effect of vitamin D level on the fetus. A sufficient amount of vitamin D supplementation is of great significance for the long bone development of the fetus.

【Objective】 To explore the effect of physical fitness training on social adaptive behavior of children with global developmental delay (GDD), in order to provide treatment experience for GDD children. 【Methods】 From November 2021 to December 2022, a total of 60 children with GDD diagnosed and treated in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Jiamusi University were enrolled in this study, and were randomly divided into control group (n=30) and test group (n=30).The control group received routine rehabilitation treatment, and the test group received physical fitness training additionally.The intervention lasted for 12 weeks, with the frequency of 3times/week, 30min/time.All subjects were tested for physical fitness and children′s social adaptive behavior before and after training. 【Results】 Before treatment, the difference between the results of physical fitness test and social adaptive behavior scores of the GDD children in two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05).After 3 months of treatment, the physical fitness test scores, except body mass index (BMI), and social adaptive behavior scores of the GDD children in two groups were significantly different from those before treatment (P<0.05), and the physical fitness test scores (except for height, weight and BMI) and the social adaptive behavior of the test group were better than those of the control group (t=2.363,4.020,3.331,3.338,P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Physical fitness training can significantly improve the adaptive behavior, independent function, cognitive function and social/self-control ability of GDD children.
