Objective: Data on syncopal donation-related vasovagal reaction (DRVR) collected from 74 blood centers between 2020 and 2023 was statistically analyzed to provide a reference for developing preventive strategies against syncopal DRVR. Methods: Data on blood donation adverse reactions and basic information of donors from 2020 to 2023 were collected through the information management system at monitoring sentinel sites. Statistical analysis was performed on the following aspects of syncopal DRVR: characteristics of donors who experienced syncope, reported incidence, triggers, duration, presence and occurrence time of syncope-related trauma, clinical management including outpatient and inpatient treatment, and severity grading. Results: From 2020 to 2023, 45 966 donation-related adverse reactions were recorded. Of these, 1 665 (3.72%) cases were syncopal DRVR. The incidence of syncopal DRVR decreased with age, being the highest in the 18-22 age group. Incidence was significantly higher in female donors than male donors, in first-time donors than repeat donors, and in university and individual donors than group donors (all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference among different blood donation locations (P>0.05). The top three triggers were tension, fatigue, and needle phobia or fear of blood. Among syncopal DRVR cases, 60.36% occurred during blood collection, 87.63% lasted for less than 60 seconds, and 5.05% were accompanied by trauma. Notably, 57.14% of these traumas occurred after donor had left the blood collection site. Syncope severity was graded based on required treatment: grade 1 (fully recovered without treatment, 95.50%); grade 2 (recovered after outpatient treatment, 4.02%); and grade 3 (recovered after inpatient treatment, 0.48%). Conclusion: By analyzing the data of syncopal DRVR cases, it is possible to provide a reference for formulating blood donor safety policies.

ObjectiveTo investigate the menstrual conditions of women infected with COVID-19 in Shanghai and analyze the influencing factors. MethodsFrom December 2022 to March 2023, menstrual data from 281 women infected with COVID-19 in Shanghai were collected with a questionnaire survey, including usual menstrual characteristics, the most recent menstrual period post-infection, symptoms of infection, and medication usage. According to the crossover period between the menstrual period and the infection period of the respondents, the samples were divided into two groups for comparative analysis: those whose menstrual and infection periods overlapped (positive group) and those whose menstruation started after conversion to virus-negative (negative conversion group). ResultsAmong the 281 respondents, 196 (65.8%) experienced menstrual changes. Among them, 145 (51.6%) had changes in menstrual volume, color and texture, and 109 (38.8%) had changes in menstrual duration or cycle. Decreased menstrual volume (22.1%), darker color (23.49%), thicker texture (21.0%), increased blood clots (16.7%), and prolonged duration (21.8%) were observed in both groups. The rate of changes in menstrual volume, color, and texture was higher in the positive group (56.8%, 69/110) than that in negative group (37.3%, 76/171) (P<0.05). Regarding the menstrual cycle changes, the rate of early onset was higher in the positive group (14.5%) compared to the negative conversion group (3.5%)(P<0.05), while the rate of delayed menstruation was higher in the negative conversion group (25.1%) than that in the positive group (5.5%) (P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed a weak association between sore throat and menstrual changes (r=0.154, P<0.05). ConclusionSome women infected with COVID-19 experience short-term changes in their menstrual conditions, characterized by reduced volume, darker color, thick texture, increased clots, and prolonged menstrual duration, reflecting a pathogenesis of blood stasis. Menstruation during the infection period tends to occur earlier, while delayed menstruation is more prevalent at post-conversion.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of 125I seed implantation in the treatment of radioactive iodine-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer (RAIR-DTC). Methods:Fourteen patients (8 males, 6 females, age: (62.0±10.7) years) with RAIR-DTC confirmed by pathology or imaging examination in the Central Hospital of Wuhan, Tongji Medical College between July 2017 and March 2021, were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were treated with 125I seed implantation guided by CT. Ultrasound, CT, 125I-SPECT/CT or MRI were performed at 1.5, 3, 6 and 12 months after the implantation to evaluate the changes of lesion volume, and serum thyroglobulin (Tg), as well as symptom relief were monitored and recorded. The paired t-test was used for data analysis. Results:The 125I seeds were successfully implanted (16 operations) in 14 patients with 25 lesions. Patients were followed up for 3-44 months (median: 6.5(4.5, 11.5) months). The total effective rate was 60.0%(15/25) and the total local control rate was 96.0%(24/25). The effective rate for metastatic lymph nodes was 10/17, and the local control rate was 16/17. The effective rate and the local control rate for local recurrence were 1/3 and 3/3 respectively, and those for bone metastasis were both 3/3, those for sinus metastasis were 0/1 and 1/1 respectively, and those for lung metastasis were both 1/1. In 8 patients with clinical symptoms, symtoms of 4 cases were completely relieved, those of 3 cases were partially relieved and 1 case had no remission. The Tg level and the tumor length were both decreased after operation ((245.99±44.85) μg/L vs (330.38±50.78) μg/L, t=2.92, P=0.010; (2.71±0.34) cm vs (3.78±0.27) cm, t=3.13, P=0.007). Conclusions:125I seed implantation, as a supplementary treatment for RAIR-DTC, is safe and effective. It has a good effect against metastatic and local recurrent lesions.

The paper reports two cases of lipoprotein glomerulopathy (LPG) in children. The Sanger sequencing results in 2 cases indicated apolipoprotein E gene mutation[c.127 (exon3) C>T, p.R43C (p.Arg43Cys); c.494 (exon4) G>C, p.R165P (p.Arg165Pro),respectively]. Renal pathological presentation of two children showed that a large number of lipoprotein emboli were formed in the glomerular capillary loop, and the diagnosis of LPG was confirmed. The onset of LPG has no specific clinical manifestation, which is easy to be undiagnosed or misdiagnosed. Renal biopsy is a diagnostic means, glucocorticoid treatment is ineffective, and long-term lipid-lowering treatment may be required for LPG.

Objective:To analyze the long-term prognosis of IgA nephropathy (IgAN) with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and the risk factors related to renal prognosis in children with IgAN-FSGS.Methods:A retrospective study was concluded in IgAN-FSGS children who were followed up for more than 5 years and diagnosed by renal biopsy for the first time in the Eastern Theater General Hospital from January, 2004 to December, 2018. The end-point events of the study were entering end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) or estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decreased by ≥50% from baseline, which were defined as poor renal prognosis. Baseline clinicopathologic data of IgAN-FSGS children were compared between the end-point event group and the non-end-point event group. The cumulative renal survival rate of IgAN-FSGS children was calculated by Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. The influencing factors of poor renal prognosis in IgAN-FSGS children were analyzed by Cox proportional hazards model, and the diagnostic value was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) and area under the curve (AUC). The diagnostic value was verified by time dependent-ROC and time dependent-AUC.Results:A total of 204 IgAN-FSGS children were enrolled in this study, of whom 132 cases were males (64.7%). The median age of renal biopsy was 16 (14, 17) years old. During a median follow-up time of 90.7 (71.7, 114.8) months, 57 cases (27.9%) reached the end-point events. Compared with the non-end-point event group ( n=147), the end-point event group ( n=57) had higher proportions of males and hypertension, higher levels of 24-hour urinary protein, serum creatinine, serum uric acid, urinary N-acetyl-β- D-glucosaminidase, urinary retinol binding protein, higher proportions of glomerular segmental sclerosis (S1) ≥25% and tubular atrophy/interstitial fibrosis (T1/T2), and lower levels of serum albumin, serum IgA, and serum IgG (all P<0.05). There was no statistical difference between the two groups in treatment (all P>0.05). Kaplan-Meier survival analysis showed that with entry of ESKD or eGFR decreased by ≥50% from baseline as the end-point events, the 5-year, 10-year, and 15-year cumulative renal survival rates in IgAN-FSGS children were 88.7%, 67.6%, and 50.7%, respectively. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that proteinuria >1 g/24 h ( HR=3.702, 95% CI 1.657-8.272, P=0.001), hyperuricemia ( HR=3.066, 95% CI 1.793-5.245, P<0.001), S1≥25% ( HR=2.017, 95% CI 1.050-3.874, P=0.035), T1/T2 ( HR=1.863, 95% CI 1.021-3.158, P=0.016) were the independent related factors for poor renal prognosis. ROC curve analysis showed that S1≥25% ( AUC=0.605, P=0.021, sensitivity 26.3%, specificity 94.6%), T1/T2 ( AUC=0.624, P=0.006, sensitivity 43.9%, specificity 81.0%), hyperuricemia ( AUC=0.658, P<0.001, sensitivity 52.6%, specificity 78.9%), proteinuria>1 g/24 h ( AUC=0.670, P<0.001, sensitivity 87.7%, specificity 46.3%) could accurately predict the renal outcome of IgAN-FSGS. Time dependent-ROC curve validation showed that the combined diagnosis of S1≥25%, T1/T2, hyperuricemia and proteinuria>1 g/24 h had a good predictive value for renal prognosis (3-year AUC=0.846 and 5-year AUC=0.777, respectively). Conclusions:During a median follow-up of 90.7 months, 27.9% of IgAN-FSGS children have poor renal prognosis, and the 5-year, 10-year, and 15-year cumulative renal survival rates are 88.7%, 67.6%, and 50.7%, respectively. Urinary protein >1 g/24 h, hyperuricemia, T1/T2, and S1 ≥25% are the risk factors for renal prognosis in IgAN-FSGS children.

Objective:To investigate the preliminary effects of sub-pectoral fascial breast augmentation and reconstruction.Methods:Six patients (10 breasts) of mammary dysplasia, mastatrophy, prophylactic mastectomy, unilateral breast defect with contralateral mastatrophy were included in the study from Oct. 2019 to July 2021. The mean patient age was 29 years (range, 20 to 35 years). All the textured and smooth cohesive gel implants were inserted under pectoralis major fascia by endoscopic-assisted, incisions were including axillary, around areola and inferior mammary fold approaches. The prophylactic mastectomy cases were performed nipple sparing mastectomy and sub-pectoral fascial breast restoration with implants. The fat and fascia tissue were well reserved to give a satisfying coverage of the appropriate implant. Negative pressure drainage and moulding dressing were used after the surgery.Results:Ten breast augmentation and restoration with a mean implant size of 200 cc (range, 180-300 cc). Less immediate postoperative pain and bleeding were reported. Patients were followed up for an average of 10 months (range, 6 to 21 months). There were no cases of major malpositions, double-bubble and bottom out symptoms. The overall outcome was with better symmetry and satisfaction with time passed by, and no secondary surgical procedures needed.Conclusions:Primary and satisfactory results have been obtained in subfascial breast augmentation and restoration for indications. With the endoscopic-assisted accurate pectoral fascial dissection, and well reserved soft tissue coverage, this technique could avoid the pectoralis major muscle ablation and keep the advantages of sub-glandular plane.

Objective:To investigate the correlations of squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCC), peripheral blood lymphocyte-to-monocyte ratio (LMR) and platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) before concurrent chemoradiotherapy with recurrence of cervical cancer after concurrent chemoradiotherapy, and to explore the predictive value of the three above indicators for recurrence.Methods:The data of 90 cervical cancer patients who received concurrent chemoradiotherapy in Shanxi Provincial Cancer Hospital from January to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed, and the patients were divided into recurrence group and non-recurrence group according to whether they relapsed. The patients' basic information and the levels of SCC, LMR and PLR before concurrent chemoradiotherapy were recorded, and the median follow-up was 17 months (5-24 months). Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors affecting the recurrence of cervical cancer after concurrent chemoradiotherapy, the obtained risk factors were used to construct a recurrence prediction model, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the predictive value of different indicators for recurrence.Results:Among 90 patients, 26 patients (28.9%) relapsed and 64 patients (71.1%) did not relapse during follow-up. The proportions of patients with tumor maximum diameter ≥ 4 cm [57.7% (15/26) vs. 34.4% (22/64)], lymph node metastasis [53.8% (14/26) vs. 31.2% (20/64)], Karnofsky score 70-75 points [30.8% (8/26) vs. 21.9% (14/64)], Karnofsky score 76-80 points [42.3% (11/26) vs. 17.2% (11/64)], International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) stage Ⅳ [42.3% (11/26) vs. 17.2% (11/64)] in the recurrence group were higher than those in the non-recurrence group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). The SCC and PLR in the recurrence group before concurrent chemoradiotherapy were (4.26±0.53) ng/ml and 144.02±11.16, which were higher than those in the non-recurrence group [(2.91± 0.48) ng/ml and 125.18±12.32], and the LMR in the recurrence group before concurrent chemoradiotherapy was 3.93±0.61, which was lower than that in the non-recurrence group (4.68±0.55), and the differences in SCC, PLR and LMR between the two groups were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). The area under the ROC curve of SCC, LMR and PLR before concurrent chemoradiotherapy alone for predicting the recurrence of cervical cancer after concurrent chemoradiotherapy was 0.819 (95% CI 0.708-0.948), 0.763 (95% CI 0.677-0.860) and 0.735 (95% CI 0.590-0.916), and the best cut-off values were 2.13 ng/ml, 4.08 and 133.65. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the tumor maximum diameter ≥4 cm ( OR = 2.116, 95% CI 1.204-3.718), lymph node metastasis ( OR = 2.669, 95% CI 1.022-6.970), FIGO stage Ⅳ ( OR = 2.699, 95% CI 1.359-5.362) and SCC≥2.13 ng/ml ( OR = 4.256, 95% CI 1.194-15.170), LMR≤4.08 ( OR = 5.216, 95% CI 2.987-9.108) and PLR≥133.65 ( OR = 3.256, 95% CI 1.456-7.281) before concurrent chemoradiotherapy were the risk factors for recurrence of cervical cancer after concurrent chemoradiotherapy (all P < 0.05). The area under the ROC curve of the recurrence prediction model constructed by the above risk factors for cervical cancer after concurrent chemoradiotherapy was 0.857 (95% CI 0.744-0.987), the best cut-off value was 157.24, the sensitivity was 0.873, the specificity was 0.845, and the Youden index was 0.718. Conclusions:The recurrence of cervical cancer after concurrent chemoradiotherapy is associated with many factors. The patients with higher SCC, higher PLR and lower LMR before concurrent radiotherapy have higher risk of recurrence. The combined detection of multiple indicators has high value for predicting recurrence.

Objective:To understand the current status of HIV self-testing reagent use in pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and related factors in men who have sex with men (MSM).Methods:From December 2018 to December 2019, "Gold data" online platform (www.jinshuju.com) was used to conduct multicenter PrEP studies in Shenyang, Beijing, Chongqing and Shenzhen of China.Results:A total of 1 222 MSM PrEP users were included in the multicenter study. The average age of the participants was (31.5±8.7) years, and the number of sexual partners in the past three months was 3 ( P 25, P 75:2,6). The proportions of those who did not use condoms in anal sex with fixed, casual and commercial partners were 62.7% (456/727), 56.3% (440/781) and 41.0% (16/39), respectively. Up to 74.5% (910/1 222) of participants had used HIV self-testing reagents, and the number of HIV self-testing during last year was 3 ( P 25, P 75:2,5). The multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that compared with age group >40 years, those with education level of junior high school or below, those with psychological identity as female, event driven PrEP users, those never using new type drugs in past 3 months, the participants aged 18- years (a OR=2.06, 95% CI: 1.35-3.14), 26- years (a OR=2.72, 95% CI: 1.77-4.17), 31- years (a OR=1.76, 95% CI: 1.19-2.59), undergraduates (a OR=2.18, 95% CI: 1.35-3.49), graduate students and above (a OR=3.06, 95% CI: 1.69-5.54), those with psychological identity as male (a OR=3.22, 95% CI: 1.55-6.70), daily PrEP users (a OR=1.35, 95% CI: 1.03-1.78), and new type drug users in the past three months (a OR=1.72, 95% CI: 1.30-2.28) had higher proportions of HIV self-testing behaviors. Conclusions:The proportion of HIV self-testing in MSM PrEP users was high, while it was relatively low in older age group, event driven PrEP users and MSM never using new type drugs. To assess and improve the effectiveness and compliance of PrEPs, it is necessary to provide better HIV self-testing service for MSM with low HIV self-testing rate.
