Objective: To evaluate the suitability of the existing hemolysis rate standards for locally processed red blood cell components by retrospectively analyzing 5-year hemolysis rate data at the end of storage. Methods: A total of 720 blood samples of three types of red blood cell components from our blood station from January 2019 to December 2023 were collected. Parameters included hemoglobin concentration (Hb), hematocrit (Hct), and free hemoglobin concentration (fHb). Hemolysis rate were taken as the control standard of 0.8% in accordance with the national standard. The hemolysis rates were compared against the national standard threshold of 0.8% (GB18469-2012), and annual trends of the detection parameters were observed. Results: The hemolysis rates (x-+s,%) of leukocyte-depleted whole blood at the end of storage were (0.038±0.023 8) in 2019, (0.049±0.039 5) in 2020, (0.043±0.040 7) in 2021, (0.049±0.030 7) in 2022, and (0.058±0.054 8) in 2023, respectively; The hemolysis rates (x-+s" />,%) of leukocyte-depleted suspended red blood cells at the end of storage were (0.093±0.050 2) in 2019, (0.086±0.049 5) in 2020, (0.123±0.072 3) in 2021, (0.122±0.052 1) in 2022, and (0.106±0.058 6) in 2023, respectively; The hemolysis rates (x-+s,%) of washed red blood cells at the end of storage were (0.127±0.038 2) in 2019, (0.150±0.066 5) in 2020, (0.121±0.052 2) in 2021, (0.124±0.038 9) in 2022, and (0.128±0.044 3) in 2023, respectively. Conclusion: Hemolysis rates at the end of blood storage of three red blood cell components were significantly lower than the limits specified in Quality Requirements for Whole Blood and Components (GB18469-2012), as well as standards from the EU, AABB and the United States. The results demonstrate excellent product quality control. A regional internal control standard of <0.2% is proposed for hemolysis rates at the end of storage.

ObjectiveTo establish a geographical origin identification model for Foeniculi Fructus from Haiyuan, providing a new technical reference for the protection of Haiyuan's geo-authentic medicinal materials and its designation as a national geographical indication agricultural product. MethodsSamples of Foeniculi Fructus were collected from eight producing areas, including Minqin (Gansu), Bozhou (Anhui), Qingdao (Shandong), Dezhou (Shandong), Urumqi (Xinjiang), Nujiang (Yunnan), Gutuo (Inner Mongolia), and Haiyuan (Ningxia). Gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS) was used to detect the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in samples from these geographic origins. VOCs were qualitatively analyzed through dual matching with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) mass spectral database and the IMS drift time database. Using the Reporter module and Gallery Plot visualization tools within the LAV analytical platform, VOC fingerprint profiles characterizing geographic origins were constructed. A non-targeted analytical strategy was adopted, and 97 VOCs detected via GC-IMS were subjected to principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) based on their differential distribution patterns to construct an origin identification model for Foeniculi Fructus from Haiyuan region. Key discriminative markers were screened using variable importance in projection (VIP) values greater than 1. ResultsA total of 97 VOCs were identified, including alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, esters, organic acids, terpenoids, ethers, alkenes, and benzenes. The PLS-DA model, based on VOCs data obtained by GC-IMS, effectively distinguished Foeniculi Fructus in Haiyuan region from those of other origins. During cross-validation, the model achieved a prediction parameter (Q2) of 0.976 and a goodness-of-fit parameter (R2) of 0.936, with no overfitting observed in permutation testing. Twelve key flavor markers with VIP > 1 were identified as characteristic indicators of Haiyuan origin. ConclusionA stable and highly predictive origin identification model for Foeniculi Fructus from Haiyuan was successfully established using GC-IMS technology, PLS-DA, and VIP-based marker screening. This model provides a novel technical strategy for accurately distinguishing Foeniculi Fructus in Haiyuan region from other regional varieties and offers new technical support for its protection as a geo-authentic medicinal material and a nationally designated geographical indication agricultural product in China.

Objective:To investigate the association between hyperuricemia and the risk for stroke occurrence, as well as the mediating effect of hypertension on this association.Methods:In this study, the China Chronic Diseases and Nutrition Surveillance system in 2015 was used as baseline data. We identified hospital admissions for stroke using the electronic homepage of inpatient medical records from 2013-2020, and death data were obtained from the 2015-2020 National Mortality Surveillance System. A retrospective cohort was established after matching and linking the database. The Cox proportional hazard regression model was used to analyze the relationship between hyperuricemia and the risk of stroke and its subtypes. Restricted cubic spline analysis was conducted to examine the dose-response relationship between serum uric acid levels and the risk for stroke. Mediation analysis was performed to investigate the mediating effect of hypertension on the association between hyperuricemia and the risk for stroke and its subtypes. Subgroup analyses were conducted based on gender and age groups.Results:A total of 124 352 study subjects were included, with an accumulative follow-up time of 612 911.36 person-years. During the follow-up period, 4 638 cases of stroke were found, including 3 919 cases of ischemic stroke and 689 cases of hemorrhagic stroke. The incidence density of stroke was 756.72 per 100 000 person-years, 641.37 per 100 000 person-years for ischemic stroke, and 114.60 per 100 000 person-years for hemorrhagic stroke. Multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression models showed that after adjusting for covariates, compared to those without hyperuricemia, individuals with hyperuricemia had a 16% higher risk for stroke [hazard ratio ( HR)=1.16, 95% CI: 1.06-1.27], a 12% higher risk of ischemic stroke ( HR=1.12, 95% CI: 1.01-1.24), and a 39% higher risk of hemorrhagic stroke ( HR=1.39, 95% CI: 1.11-1.75). Mediation analysis showed that hypertension partially mediated the associations between hyperuricemia and the risk for stroke, ischemic stroke, and hemorrhagic stroke, with mediation proportions of 36.07%, 39.98%, and 25.34%, respectively. The mediating effect is pronounced in the male population and individuals below 65. Conclusion:Hyperuricemia is a risk factor for stroke, and hypertension partially mediates the effect of hyperuricemia on stroke.

Objective:To retrospectively observe the effect of oxycodone on acute postoperative pain in patients undergoing thoracoscopic surgery.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 404 patients undergoing thoracoscopic thoracic surgery under combined general anesthesia at the Xiangya Hospital, Central South University from April 1, 2020 to September 30, 2021. They were divided into A group ( n=99, oxycodone group) and B group ( n=305, control group) based on whether oxycodone was used during the surgery. The two groups of patients were further matched 1∶1 using the nearest neighbor matching method. We compared the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) of activity and resting pain and the incidence of moderate to severe pain between two groups of patients 24 hours after surgery, and observed the incidence and severity of pain related adverse reactions such as nausea, vomiting, itching, and dizziness. Resultsl:After matching the propensity scores of the two groups of patients, the balance was good ( SMD<0.20). There was no statistically significant difference between the groups in age, gender, body mass index, American Society of Anesthesiologist (ASA) grade, surgical time, intraoperative bleeding, and the use of antiemetics and analgesics during the perioperative period (all P>0.05). Compared with the control group, patients in the group A had a resting VAS [(2.03±1.61)points vs (1.62±1.31)points, P=0.049], and activity VAS [(4.13±1.72)points vs (3.51±1.79)points, P=0.013] was even lower, and the incidence of moderate to severe pain (VAS≥4) during activity was lower [59.6%(59/99) vs 37.4%(37/99), P=0.003]. There was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of analgesic related adverse reactions between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Intravenous injection of oxycodone can effectively alleviate acute pain in patients undergoing thoracoscopic surgery within 24 hours, and reduce the incidence of moderate to severe pain during activity.

Objective:To investigate the current situation and analyze the influencing factors of job satisfaction of infectious disease physicians in Jiangsu Province.Methods:From April to May 2021, a stratified random sampling method was used to select 10 municipal level infectious disease hospitals in Jiangsu province. An electronic questionnaire survey was conducted on the infectious disease physicians of these hospitals using an online questionnaire platform. The questionnaire mainly included the job satisfaction scale developed by Greenhaus and Wormley, and a self-designed job satisfaction influencing factor scale based on resource conservation theory. At the same time, semi-structured interviews were made with relevant insiders on such issues as salary and benefits, and career development among others. Descriptive analysis was conducted on the questionnaire data, while single factor analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were used to identify the factors that affect their job satisfaction, and the results of the interviews were studied with Colaizzi 7-step analysis.Results:A total of 457 valid questionnaires were recovered. The job satisfaction score of infectious disease physicians was (3.38±0.76). The results of univariate analysis showed significant differences in job satisfaction scores among infectious disease physicians of different ages, educational backgrounds, professional titles, and positions. The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that salary and benefits ( B=0.141, P<0.001), work environment ( B=0.128, P<0.001), leadership support ( B=0.112, P=0.014), development security ( B=0.117, P<0.001), self-efficacy ( B=0.084, P=0.045) and social support ( B=0.285, P<0.001) were both influencing factors of their job satisfaction. The interview results identified such problems as low salary, insufficient salary security, large gap in social security levels between in-staff and off-staff physicians, and insufficient career development potential. Conclusions:The job satisfaction of infectious disease physicians in Jiangsu Province was found at an average level. It is recommended that the government increase the investment in personnel expenses for infectious disease physicians, optimize the salary and benefits structure, pay attention to the career development needs of middle-aged and young physicians, and care about the social relationship needs of infectious disease physicians to improve their job satisfaction.

Objective:To understand the regular leisure-time physical activity status of residents aged ≥60 years in China and to explore the potential influencing factors.Methods:National Chronic Disease and Risk Factor Surveillance were conducted in 298 counties (districts) in China in 2018, which covered 31 provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities), using a multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method to select 194 779 permanent residents aged ≥18 years, using a questionnaire containing the Global Physical Activity Questionnaire. A face-to-face survey to obtain demographic information about the survey respondents, the frequency of moderate and vigorous-intensity leisure-time physical activity in their spare time and time, and other information related to chronic diseases and risk factors. Daily temperatures of 298 monitored counties (districts) in 2018 were obtained by inversion of satellite remote sensing data information such as MODIS, OMI, and AIRS, and the number of parks in 2017 was obtained by me. In this study, 68 379 residents aged ≥60 years who completed the survey and had complete information on leisure-time physical activity-related variables, temperature, and parks were used as survey respondents, and the prevalence of regular leisure-time physical activity and average weekly exercise time was calculated by gender in groups of age, urban and rural areas, education level, and geography. Multi-factor logistic regression models were used to analyze the individual and environmental influences on the regular exercise rate. All the results were weighted according to a complex sampling scheme.Results:The prevalence of regular leisure-time physical activity of residents aged ≥60 years in China in 2018 was 13.1% (95% CI: 12.1%-14.0%). The figures were slightly higher for men [13.6% (95% CI: 12.6%-14.7%)] than for women [12.5% (95% CI: 11.5%-13.5%)]; urban [17.5% (95% CI: 15.9%-19.1%)] were significantly higher than those in rural areas [9.6% (95% CI: 8.8%-10.4%)]; the prevalence of regular leisure-time physical activity in East China [15.1% (95% CI: 13.3%-16.9%)] was higher than those in other regions; older residents in counties (districts) with ≥28 parks [17.3% (95% CI: 15.3%-19.2%)] the highest. The average weekly exercise time of elderly residents in China was 68.3 (95% CI: 63.5-73.2) minutes; among them, men [74.3 (95% CI: 68.1-80.5) minutes] was higher than women [62.5 (95% CI: 57.8-67.2) minutes]; urban [89.8 (95% CI: 82.0-97.7) minutes] were higher than rural [51.4 (95% CI: 46.8-56.1) minutes]. The results of the multi-factorial logistic analysis showed that factors such as: living in rural areas, lower annual household income for literacy, poorer self-rated health status, and lack of parks in the area of residence were associated with a lower prevalence of regular leisure-time physical activity among elderly residents. Conclusions:The prevalence of regular leisure-time physical activity among elderly residents in China is still at a low level, and exercise time needs to be improved. We should increase the publicity of "national fitness", pay attention to the disadvantaged elderly groups and provide more suitable activity places to encourage more elderly residents to participate in leisure-time physical activity.

Objective:To improve the longevity genetic research study design by applying self-organizing maps to select a control group for longevity study.Methods:This study included the Han population aged 90 years and above or less than 80 years who have died (control group) from the natural population-based cohort formed by the fusion of the Chinese Chronic Diseases and Risk Factors Surveillance in 2013 and the China Death Surveillance System. The subjects who died of injury, infectious diseases, parasitic diseases, and malignant tumors were excluded. The self-organizing maps method, with multiple iterations and self-organizing clustering, was used to select similar factors among the population aged 90 years and above and the control group, including demographic characteristics, diseases, living habits, social behaviors, and mental and psychological factors. The study used PLINK 1.9 software to evaluate the quality of whole genome sequencing and to conduct logistic regression of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and longevity on autosomes. Q-Q plots were used to visualize the P value associated with SNPs and longevity. Results:There were 1 019 samples selected from the baseline of 177 099 survey participants for genome sequencing, including 517 in the longevity group and 502 in the control group. The longevity and the control groups are generally similar in smoking, drinking, diet, sleep duration, blood lipid level, and self-assessment oral health status but differ significantly in socio-economic status, physical activity time, BMI, and self-assessment health status. The whole genome sequencing results were controlled, and 4 618 216 SNPs were involved in association analysis. The Q-Q plot of longevity-related SNPs analysis results showed that the enrichment of P value 1e-4 was significantly lower than the expected P value, and significant signals were also detected among P<1e-7 regions. Conclusions:The self-organizing maps can comprehensively consider the influence of socioeconomic and behavioral risk factors and select longevity control samples among samples with actual age and cause of death in a large-scale natural population cohort to improve the efficiency of longevity genome association analysis. This study provides a methodological reference for nested case-control study sample selection from the large-scale natural population cohort.

Objective:To understand the prevalence of insufficient physical activity among adults aged ≥18 years in China and to explore the influencing factors.Methods:The China Chronic Disease and Risk Factor Surveillance was conducted in 298 counties/districts in China in 2018, covering 31 provinces (autonomous regions, municipalities). A multi-stage stratified cluster random sampling method was used to select permanent residents aged ≥18 years. A questionnaire including Global Physical Activity Questionnaire was used to collect information about the participants' demographic characteristics and physical activity through face-to-face interview. A total of 183 769 participants completed the survey. After complex data weighting, the prevalence of insufficient physical activity, occupation, transportation, and leisure-time physical activity time was analyzed. Multivariate logistic regression models were used to analyze the influencing factors related to insufficient physical activity.Results:The prevalence of insufficient physical activity among adults aged ≥18 years was 22.3% (95% CI: 20.9%-23.7%) in China in 2018, with males [24.4% (95% CI: 23.0%-25.8%)] significantly higher than females [20.2% (95% CI: 18.6%-21.8%)]. Adults aged 70 years and above [28.4% (95% CI: 26.9%-29.9%)] were significantly higher than adults in other age groups, followed by adults aged 18-29 years [26.4% (95% CI: 24.4%- 28.3%)] and 30-39 years [23.4% (95% CI: 21.5%-25.3%)], and tended to increase with increasing education and total sedentary behavior time ( P<0.001). The weekly occupation, transportation, and leisure-time physical activity time appeared 958.6 (95% CI: 911.4-1 005.8) minutes, 234.5 (95% CI: 224.7- 244.2) minutes, and 88.6 (95% CI: 83.5-93.7) minutes, respectively. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that males, adults living in rural areas or northern China, ≥70 years, with junior high school education, an annual household income per capita <6 000 yuan and institutional/clerical/ technical occupation and longer total sedentary behavior time were related to a higher prevalence of insufficient physical activity. Conclusions:In China, over one-fifth of the adults had lower physical activity levels. Adults who are male, young adults, more educated, institutional/clerical/technical occupation, and with more extended total sedentary behavior are the populations that need to be focused on to promote physical activity-related health.
