Chinese Journal of Schistosomiasis Control 2016;28(5):586-588
Objective To explore the size changes of erythrocytes infected with Plasmodium malariae,so as to improve the basic?level experimenters’microscopy capabilities for P. malariae identification in thin blood smears. Methods The micro?scopic features of erythrocytes infected with P. malariae in thin peripheral blood smears were observed,and a microscope image processing software was used to measure and analyze the diameter changes of the erythrocytes infected with P. malariae. Re?sults The diameter of erythrocytes infected with P. malariae decreased significantly compared with that of the normal erythro?cytes. The three parameters in this study:the diameter of erythrocytes,the value of diameter variation,and the ratio of diameter variation varied at different developmental stages of P. malariae,and the differences were statistically significant(all P<0.01). The variances of the three parameters grouped by different cases or different developmental stages in different cases were ana?lyzed,all showing statistically significant differences(all P<0.01). Conclusion All the developmental stages of P. malariae will cause the decrease of the diameters of infected erythrocytes in peripheral blood smears,but the influence on the diameter of erythrocytes,value of diameter variation,and ratio of diameter variation varies at different developmental stages in different cases.

Objective To explore the application of mesangial thyroid resection in papillary thyroid carcinoma(PTC) with central lymph node dissection,and its influence on postoperative recurrence.Methods 76 cases with PTC were divided into two groups according to random number table,each group in 38cases.The control group was given primary lesions radical prostatectomy and routine central lymph node dissection,the treatment group was given primary lesions radical prostatectomy and central lymph node dissection by thyroid mesangial resection.The parathyroid function,injury of recurrent laryngeal nerve and local recurrence were compared between the two groups.Results Compared with before surgery,the levels of serum PTH and blood calcium were significantly decreased at the 1st,3rd day after surgery (all P < 0.05),while there were no statistically significant differences in serum PTH and blood calcium at the 7th day after surgery(all P >0.05).The levels of serum PTH and blood calcium at the lst,3rd,7th day after surgery between the two groups had no statistically significant differences(all P < 0.05).The incidence rate of injury of recurrent laryngeal nerve in the treatment group was significantly lower than that in the control group (5.3% vs.21.1%,x2 =4.15,P < 0.05).The secondary surgery rate and local recurrence within 2 years in the treatment group were significantly lower than those in the control group (0% vs.15.8%,2.6% vs.18.4%,x2 =6.51,4.69,all P < 0.05).Conclusion Primary lesions radical prostatectomy and central lymph node dissection by thyroid mesangial resection can be used as theroutine operation for PTC,which can effectively produce complete dissection,reduce injury of recurrent laryngeal nerve and local recurrence.
10.Study of procalcitonin and C-reactive protein in predicting enterog-enous bacterial infection among diarrheal patients after irinotecan chemotherapy
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2015;(7):382-385
Objective:To investigate procalcitonin and C-reactive protein levels in diarrheal patients who underwent irinotecan che-motherapy. Methods:Procalcitonin and C-reactive protein were detected among 85 diarrheal and 63 non-diarrheal patients after irinote-can chemotherapy. Results:According to WHO classification, patients without diarrhea are classified as grade 0, whereas patients with diarrhea can be classified as gradesⅠ-Ⅳ. In grades 0,Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ, andⅣpatients, the levels of procalcitonin were 0.29 ± 0.17, 0.30 ± 0.18, 0.36 ± 0.20, 1.24 ± 0.22, and 2.15 ± 0.26 ng/mL on the second day, respectively. However, on the fourth day, the procalcitonin lev-els were 0.28 ± 0.15, 0.30 ± 0.14, 0.34 ± 0.18, 2.00 ± 0.22, and 2.40 ± 0.28 ng/mL, respectively. Moreover, in grades 0,Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ, andⅣ, the levels of C-reactive protein were 6.06 ± 1.85, 6.12 ± 1.16, 6.20 ± 1.68, 22.62 ± 4.55, and 31.26 ± 5.23 mg/L on the second day, respectively. On the fourth day, the C-reactive protein levels were 5.80 ± 1.82, 5.94 ± 1.14, 6.15 ± 1.55, 30.52 ± 4.74, and 38.67 ± 5.68 mg/L, respectively. No significant difference was found between the procalcitonin and C-reactive protein levels of stagesⅠandⅡpa-tients (P>0.05), but a significant difference was found between stagesⅠ, andⅡpatients and stagesⅢandⅣpatients (P<0.05). Con-clusion: Monitoring levels of procalcitonin and C-reactive protein may be helpful in the early evaluation of the severity of diarrhea. This process has prognostic effect and can be used to assess whether patients have enterogenous bacterial infection. Monitoring the lev-els of these proteins has certain clinical value and can be used to guide early anti-infection therapy.
