Shuo Luo High-risk Obstetrics, Baoding Maternal and Child Health Hospital, Baoding 071000, Hebei, China.
Objective: To investigate the screening efficacy of six thrombotic markers for hypercoagulable state (HCS) in pregnant women, including thrombin-antithrombin III complex (TAT), plasmin-alpha-2 plasmin inhibitor complex (PIC), thrombomodulin (TM), tissue-type plasminogen activator inhibitor complex(t-PAI-C), D-dimer(D-D), and fibrinogen degradation products (FDP).
Methods: This was a retrospective study. Eighty-five high-risk pregnant women who underwent antenatal examination at Baoding maternal and Child Health Hospital from December 2022 to September 2023 were included as the observation group, while 85 healthy pregnant women without complications or comorbidities who underwent routine antenatal examinations at our hospital were randomly enrolled as the control group.

Department of International Public Health, Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine, Liverpool, United Kingdom.
Background: Effective strategies to reduce sexually transmitted infection burden and transmission among female sex workers (FSWs) and their networks are needed. We report sexually transmitted infection prevalence among FSWs in Zimbabwe and investigate the performance of screening algorithms.
Methods: Respondent-driven sampling (RDS) surveys, including blood sampling for syphilis serology, were conducted among FSWs in 3 communities in Zimbabwe in 2017.
Epidemiological and Molecular Investigation of Feline Panleukopenia Virus Infection in China.
Viruses
December 2024
Key Laboratory of Veterinary Biological Engineering and Technology, Institute of Veterinary Medicine, Jiangsu Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Nanjing 210014, China.
The feline panleukopenia virus (FPV) is a highly contagious virus that affects cats worldwide, characterized by leukopenia, high temperature and diarrhea. Recently, the continuous prevalence and variation of FPV have attracted widespread concern. The aim of this study was to investigate the isolation, genetic evolution, molecular characterization and epidemiological analysis of FPV strains among cats and dogs in China from 2019 to 2024.

College of Medical Laboratory, Dalian Medical University, Dalian, Liaoning, China.
The Coombs test is important in hematology for detecting erythrocyte-bound IgG antibodies or in serm through agglutination methods, but its sensitivity and specificity are limited. Flow cytometry provides a more precise and sensitive alternative for quantitatively assessing RBC-bound IgG antibodies. This assessment is crucial for evaluating the risk of hemolytic reactions and ensuring safe transfusions.
