Background And Objectives: To date, the effects of FFP and PC storage duration on mortality have only been studied in a few studies in limited patient subpopulations. The aim of the current study was to determine whether FFP and PC storage duration is associated with increased in hospital mortality risk across cardiac surgery, acute medicine, ICU and orthopaedic surgery patients.
Materials And Methods: Two-stage individual patient data meta-analyses were performed to determine the effects of FFP and PC storage duration on in hospital mortality. Preset random effects models were used to determine pooled unadjusted and adjusted (adjusted for age, gender and units of product transfused) effect estimates.
Results: The FFP storage duration analysis included 3625 patients across four studies. No significant association was observed between duration of storage and in hospital mortality in unadjusted analysis, but after adjusting for patient age, gender and units of product a small increased risk of in hospital mortality was observed for each additional month of storage (OR: 1·05, 95% CI: 1·01-1·08). This effect was no longer statistically significant when donor ABO blood group was incorporated into the random effects model on post hoc analyses. A total of 547 patients across five studies were incorporated in the PC storage duration analysis. No association was observed between PC storage duration and odds of in hospital morality (adjusted OR: 0·94, 95% CI: 0·79-1·11).
Conclusions: There is insufficient evidence to support shortening FFP or PC shelf life based on in hospital mortality.

Objective: To establish a method for preserving viral nucleic acids in plasma using a blood collection card based on the dry spot method, to predict the duration of nucleic acid preservation by establishing the Arrhenius equation, and to demonstrate the feasibility of this preservation method for the re-testing of nucleic acids in blood samples retained by blood banks.
Methods: Plasma samples positive for HBV, HCV, and HIV nucleic acids were prepared into preservation cards in the form of dry plasma spots for storage. The prepared preservation cards were placed under accelerated storage conditions at 37, 45, 50, and 55 ℃.

Background: Ozone (O) is a promising alternative antibacterial agent that has recently been used in meat processing. The understanding of the appropriate functional settings of O for addressing food safety problems is still insufficient.
Aim: The aim of this study was, therefore, to investigate the effects of exposure to O on the bacteriological quality of retail meat inoculated with at refrigeration temperatures.

Grazing exclusion is effective in restoring vegetation and ecological services in degraded grasslands within semi-arid regions. Variations in plant functional traits associated with the duration of grazing exclusion can indicate both ecological adaptability of plants and restoration processes of ecosystems. However, research on ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF) under grazing exclusion and restoration mechanisms mediated by plant functional traits is relatively limited.

Poultry represents a rich source of multiple nutrients. Refrigeration is commonly employed for poultry preservation, although extended storage duration can adversely affect the meat quality. Current research on this topic has focused on the analysis of biochemical indices in chilled goose meat, with limited information on changes in metabolites that influence the quality of the meat during storage.
