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.

Objective:To explore the relationship among suicide risk,distress tolerance,and resilience in pa-tients with depression.Methods:A total of 130 patients with depression who met the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders,Fifth Edition(DSM-5)diagnostic criteria were included.The Chinese version of the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview(MINI)suicide module was used to assess suicide risk.According to the interview results,the patients with depression were divided into suicide risk group(98 cases)and non-suicide risk group(32 cases).The Hamilton Depression Rating Scale(HAMD),Distress Tolerance Scale(DTS),10-item Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale(CD-RISC-10)were used to assess severity of depressive symptoms,level of distress tolerance and resilience,respectively.Results:The DTS total scores were positively correlated with the CD-RISC-10 total scores(r=0.50,P＜0.01).The total scores of MINI suicide module were negatively correlated with the total scores of DTS and CD-RISC-10(r=-0.34,-0.34,Ps＜0.01).Distress tolerance had a direct effect on suicide risk(β=-0.26,P＜0.05),and resilience played a mediating effect on the relationship between distress tolerance and suicide risk(β=-0.13,P＜0.05),and the mediating effect accounted for 33.5％of the total effect.Conclusion:Patients with depression with lower levels of distress tolerance may have higher suicide risk,and resilience may play a partially mediating role in the relationship between distress tolerance and suicide risk.

Polyphenolic compounds have received tremendous attention in biomedicine because of their good biocompatibility and unique physicochemical properties.In recent years,phenolic-enabled nanotechnology(PEN)has become a hotspot of research in the medical field,and many promising studies have been reported,especially in the application of central nervous system(CNS)diseases.Polyphenolic compounds have superior anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties,and can easily cross the blood?brain barrier,as well as protect the nervous system from metabolic damage and promote learning and cognitive functions.However,although great advances have been made in this field,a comprehensive review regarding PEN-based nanomaterials for CNS therapy is lacking.A systematic summary of the basic mechanisms and synthetic strategies of PEN-based nanomaterials is beneficial for meeting the demand for the further development of novel treatments for CNS diseases.This review systematically introduces the fundamental physicochemical properties of PEN-based nanomaterials and their applications in the treatment of CNS diseases.We first describe the different ways in which polyphenols interact with other substances to form high-quality products with controlled sizes,shapes,compositions,and surface chemistry and functions.The application of PEN-based nanomaterials in the treatment of CNS diseases is then described,which provides a reference for subsequent research on the treatment of CNS diseases.

Objective:To investigate the application of virtual reality (VR) technology on intraoperative pain in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD)-related procedures with local infiltration anesthesia and the satisfaction.Methods:It was a single-center, prospective, concurrent controlled study. Patients were divided into two groups: VR group and control group. In the VR group, patients wore a VR headset to watch soothing audio and video content during surgery, while the control group underwent routine procedures. Intraoperative pain and satisfaction were assessed using the visual analog scale (VAS) and a 5-point satisfaction scale within 30 minutes of surgery. In addition, tolerance of the VR experience in the VR group was assessed using the VR sickness questionnaire.Results:A total of 43 patients were included in the study, including 25 males (58.1%). Chronic glomerulonephritis [17 cases (39.5%)] and diabetic nephropathy [6 cases (14.0%)] were the main primary diseases. There were 23 cases in the control group and 20 cases in the VR group. There were no significant differences between the two groups in age, sex ratio, proportion of primary disease, diabetes, hypertension, distribution of operation methods, preoperative vital signs and operation time (all P>0.05). VAS pain score was significantly lower in the VR group than that in the control group (5.90±2.38 vs. 7.43±1.67, t=2.469, P=0.018). The percentage of patients who were satisfied was 89.5% (17/19) in the VR group and 78.3% (18/23) in the control group, but there was no significant difference (chi-square test for continuity correction, χ2=0.308, P=0.579). Three patients in the VR group withdrew from the study due to severe discomfort, while the remaining participants found the VR experience to be tolerable. Common adverse effects included fatigue and blurred vision. Conclusions:The application of VR technology in PD-related procedures has been effective in reducing intraoperative pain when combined with local infiltration anesthesia. Furthermore, the utilization of VR technology in PD-related procedures is associated with a safe and tolerable outcome, despite the observation of some adverse effects.

Objective:To analyze the detection strategy and basic detection situation of markers of infectious diseases transmitted by transfusion in blood testing laboratories of blood stations in China.Methods:Based on the data of practice comparison working party of Blood Stations in Mainland of China from 2017 to 2021, the data on the testing strategies and the basic detection information of the markers for the transmission of infectious diseases through transfusion in the member laboratories of the practice comparison working party of Blood Stations in Mainland of China from 2017 to 2021 were collected, and the situation of the selection for testing markers, testing strategy and the testing method and other relevant aspects were sorted out and analyzed by charts.Results:The selection of the testing markers was consistent, but HTLV testing item was added in some member laboratories. The detection strategy of using two ELISA reagents and one nucleic acid testing (NAT) reagent simultaneously was adopted in 47 member blood stations; 3) NAT method was dominated by mini pool-NAT in member laboratories. The number of members adopting mini-pools of 8 (MP8)-NAT decreased from 17 in 2017 to 14 in 2021, while the number of members adopting mini-pools of 6 (MP6)-NAT increased from 13 in 2017 to 22 in 2021; Roche NAT system accounted for the largest proportion.Conclusions:In order to ensure blood safety and avoid missing detection, the blood stations still adopt the detection strategy of using two ELISA reagents and one nucleic acid testing (NAT) reagent simultaneously; Meanwhile, in order to increase the NAT positive rate, the proportion of mini pool-NAT mainly decreased year by year despite its dominating role, while the proportion of individual donation-NAT increased year by year; NAT method is transiting from mini-pools of 8 (MP8) to mini-pools of 6 (MP6); The proportion of imported NAT system used in NAT laboratory is relatively large.

Objective:To examine the heritability of body mass index (BMI) and coronary heart disease (CHD), and to explore whether genetic factors can explain their correlation.Methods:Participants were from 11 provinces/municipalities reqistered in the Chinese National Twin Registry (CNTR) from 2010 to 2018. Participants data were collected from face-to-face questionnaire survey. Bivariate structure equation model was used to estimate the heritability and the genetic correlation of BMI and CHD.Results:A total of 20 340 pairs of same-sex twins aged ≥25 years were included in this study. After adjusting for age and gender, the heritability of BMI and CHD was 0.52 (95% CI: 0.49-0.55) and 0.76 (95% CI: 0.69-0.81), respectively. Further, a genetic correlation was identified between BMI and CHD ( rA=0.10, 95% CI:0.02-0.17). Conclusion:In Chinese adult twin population, BMI and CHD are affected by genetic factors, and their correlation can be attributed to the common genetic basis.

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 explore the curative effect of laparoscopic surgery for hepatic cysticercosis.Methods:Search the literature from February 2010 to February 2020 on literature platforms such as Wanfang Data, VIP, CNKI, Pubmed, ScienceDirect, Web of Science, etc. the key words were "肝囊型包虫病" , "细粒棘球蚴" , "手术" , "开腹手术" , "腹腔镜" , "微创手术" , " echinococcosis " , " liver or hepatic " , " laparoscopic or minimal invasive " . Data on intraoperative indicators (e.g., operation time, bleeding volume), postoperative complications, hospital stay, recurrence rate, etc. in the literature included in the study were extracted and meta-analyzed.Results:A total of 9 articles were included, including 2 prospective studies and 7 retrospective case-control studies. A total of 1031 patients were enrolled, including 272 in the laparoscopic group and 759 in the laparotomy group. The results of the meta-analysis showed that the total postoperative complication rate in the laparoscopic group was lower than that in the laparotomy group ( OR=1.64, 95% CI: 1.10-2.45, P<0.05). Incision-related complications in the laparoscopy group and laparotomy group the difference was statistically significant ( OR=2.81, 95% CI: 1.03-7.70, P<0.05), and the hospital stay in the laparoscopic group was shorter ( SMD=1.21, 95% CI: 0.47-1.96, P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in operation time, postoperative bile leakage, residual cavity infection and effusion, and postoperative recurrence rate ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Under the premise of strictly grasping the indication of laparoscopic surgery, the incidence of complications after laparoscopic surgery is low, the hospitalization time is short.

Objective:To describe the differences in body mass index (BMI) distribution in adult twins registered in Chinese National Twin Registry (CNTR), and provide evidence for the risk factor analysis and prevention and control of overweight or obesity.Methods:A total of 32 725 twin pairs aged 18 years and above who completed the questionnaire survey during 2010-2018 and had complete registered information in CNTR and normal body weight and length were included in the analysis on the population and region specific distributions of BMI of twin pairs and the difference in BMI in twin pairs.Results:The twin pairs included in the analysis were aged (34.6±12.4) years, the twin pairs of same gender accounted for 79.7%. The average BMI was 22.5 kg/m 2. The overall prevalence of obesity and overweight was 4.9% and 23.7%, respectively. Participants who were men, 50-59 years old, married, had lower education level, and lived in northern China had higher overweight rate and obesity rate ( P<0.001). The difference in overweight or obesity prevalence between monozygotic (MZ) twin pars and dizygotic (DZ) twin pairs was not significant, but firstborn twin pairs had slightly higher rates of overweight and obesity than later-born twin pairs ( P<0.05). The analysis in same gender-twin pairs indicated that the difference in BMI was associated with age (trend test: P<0.001), and the difference was more obvious in DZ twin pair in MZ pair and this difference increased with age. The concordant rate of BMI was higher in MZ twin pairs than DZ twin pairs ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The distribution of BMI of twin pairs varied with population and region and BMI varied with age due to its genetic nature.
