Chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is influenced by both viral and host factors. In genome-wide association studies, the human leucocyte antigen HLA-DPA1 and related polymorphism rs3077 were found to be associated with susceptibility to and spontaneous clearance of HBV infection. Here, we evaluated the association between HLA-DPA1 mRNA expression and the risk of HBV infection. HLA-DPA1 and rs3077 polymorphisms were investigated in 169 patients with chronic HBV and 217 healthy controls (HCs) from Sichuan Han blood donors using sequence-based typing and meta-analysis for HLA-DPA1 alleles. HLA-DPA1 mRNA levels were measured by real-time polymerase chain reaction. The results showed that HLA-DPA1 and rs3077 were associated with HBV infection in the Sichuan population. Rs3077T and DPA1*01:03 played protective roles in HBV infection, and rs3077C and DPA1*02:02 increased susceptibility to HBV infection. We found that the HLA-DPA1 mRNA expression was decreased in the CHB group; in particular, the 3077CT, 3077TT, DPA1*01:03 and DPA1*02:01 alleles showed a significant decrease. Our results demonstrated, for the first time, that expression of HLA-DPA1 alleles and rs3077 affected the risk of HBV infection. Genotypes with lower HLA-DPA1 expression had a greater susceptibility to HBV infection. Thus, further independent studies are needed to strengthen the associations of these polymorphisms with susceptibility to and clearance of HBV infection in Chinese populations.

Impact of perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion on the long-term prognosis of patients with different stage tumors after radical resection for hepatocellular carcinoma

Tao Peng, Liming Wang, Hongyuan Cui, Xiying Li, Min Liu, Jingjing Yu, Jianxiong Wu, Guohua Zhao, Zhong Liu

Summary: This study demonstrates that perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion has negative impacts on the long-term prognosis of patients with early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma after radical resection, but has no impact on the long-term prognosis of patients with non-early-stage tumors.

Summary: This study collected nasopharyngeal swabs, anal swabs, saliva, blood, and urine specimens from patients with a course of disease ranging from 7 to 69 days. It was found that the positive detection rate was highest in nasopharyngeal swabs, followed by anal swabs. There was no significant correlation between antibody levels and days after symptom onset or viral load.

Summary: This report provides the first comprehensive overview of transfusion-related adverse reactions in China, highlighting that allergic reactions and FNHTR are the most common adverse symptoms. Most adverse reactions resulted in hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization for patients, with the ratio of serious adverse reactions being 8.2%.

Donor tolerability of convalescent plasma donation

Summary: This study evaluated the short-term donor tolerability of convalescent plasma donation and found that all adverse events were mild vasovagal without relation to factors like weight, sex, or blood type. Overall, the donation of convalescent plasma is safe, but mitigation of risk factors associated with adverse events can further enhance donor tolerability.

Summary: This study proposed a potential estimation equation for evaluating the dose of high antibody titer convalescent plasma, which could assist in the rational allocation of plasma with high antibody titers and provide an individualized treatment strategy for convalescent plasma therapy.

Summary: This report describes the development of the Chinese Haemovigilance Network (CHN) and evaluates its role in advancing blood transfusion safety by analyzing reported adverse transfusion reactions (ATRs) from 2018 to 2020. The study found that the establishment of CHN has increased ATR recognition and management, although under-reporting of ATRs still occurs in many Chinese hospitals.

Investigating the Correlation Between HLA-II Gene Polymorphism and RhE Alloimmunization in Pregnant Chinese Women

Wenling Shang, Guojin Ou, Xin Ji, Jian Chen, Jue Wang, Yongmei Jiang

Summary: The study aimed to verify the correlation between HLA-II gene polymorphisms and RhE alloimmunization in pregnant Chinese women through HLA-II typing and DR-RhE structural prediction. The results showed a significant positive association between the HLA-DRB1*09:01-DQA1*03:02-DQB1*03:03 haplotype and anti-E. One E-derived anchoring peptide (219FWPSVNSPL227) was predicted to bind to the HLA-DRB1*09:01 molecule. This study demonstrated that HLA-II haplotypes are associated with allo-anti-E antibodies in pregnant women from Sichuan Province, China.

Summary: This study identified the incidence of CD36 deficiency among platelet donors in Kunming and investigated the molecular basis of this deficiency. It was found that 1.68% of the donors had CD36 deficiency, with 0.24% having type I deficiency and 1.44% having type II deficiency. Heterozygous mutations were detected in these individuals, which may contribute to the CD36 deficiency.
