Prevalence, incidence, and residual risks for transfusion‐transmitted human immunodeficiency virus Types 1 and 2 infection among Chinese blood donors

There are little data on human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) prevalence, incidence, or residual risks for transfusion‐transmitted HIV infection among Chinese blood donors.

Analysis of Chinese donors' return behavior

BACKGROUND: It is important to understand donor return behavior. Converting first‐time donors to become repeat donors is essential for maintaining an adequate blood supply.

Impact of the May 12, 2008, earthquake on blood donations across five Chinese blood centers

BACKGROUND: On May 12, 2008, a severe earthquake struck Chinas Sichuan Province. The nationwide outpouring of charity resulted in a surge of subsequent blood donations. The quantity and quality of these donations were examined in comparison with routine donations.

Demographics of apheresis platelet donors in five blood centers in China.

BACKGROUND: Blood component donations by apheresis has become more common in modern blood transfusion practices. However, apheresis donation still remains less common in China. This study describes the demographic profile and transfusion‐transmissible infection (TTI) prevalence among donors making apheresis platelet (AP) donations compared to those making whole blood (WB) donations and the differences among five geographically diverse blood centers in China.

A study of seroprevalence and rates of asymptomatic viremia of severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus among Chinese blood donors

Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV), an emerging tick‐borne pathogen that can cause fatal severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome, was first identified in China in 2009. Limited evidence suggests that SFTSV can be transmitted between humans via blood contact, raising concerns over transfusion safety. A study of donor samples from three Chinese blood centers was conducted to investigate the seroprevalence and rate of SFTSV viremia among Chinese blood donors.

An analysis of risk factors for human immunodeficiency virus infection among Chinese blood donors

Information regarding the risk factors for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection among Chinese donors is important for understanding the trend of HIV transmission routes and for developing effective donor behavioral screening policies.

The persistence of hepatitis C virus transmission risk in China despite serologic screening of blood donations

A total of 2%‐2.9% of the population in China is infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV). This study estimated the prevalence and incidence of HCV among Chinese blood donors.

Risk factors for hepatitis B and C infection among blood donors in five Chinese blood centers.

Few studies were conducted on hepatitis B and C virus (HBV and HCV, respectively) risk factors among Chinese blood donors in recent years since voluntary donors replaced commercial donors.

Prevalence, Incidence, and Residual Risks for Transfusion Transmitted HIV-1/2 Infection among Chinese Blood Donors

There are little data on human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) prevalence, incidence, or residual risks for transfusion‐transmitted HIV infection among Chinese blood donors.

Risk factors for hepatitis B and C infection among blood donors in five Chinese blood centers: HBV and HCV risk factors among Chinese blood donors

Few studies were conducted on hepatitis B and C virus (HBV and HCV, respectively) risk factors among Chinese blood donors in recent years since voluntary donors replaced commercial donors.
