Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of valproic acid combined with all-trans retinoic acid(ATRA) in the treatment of myelodysplastic syndrome. Methods Twenty-two patients with MDS consisting of 4 RA, 1 RARS, 10 RCMD, 1 RCMD-RS, 3 RAEB-1 and 3 RAEB-2 were analyzed. The initial dose of valproic acid was 0.6 g/d, then increased to 1.2 g/d after one week; all-trans retinoic acid was administered at 30 mg/d every other week after taken VPA one week later. All patients maintained treatment for 3 months unless severe side effect was found or disease progression. Bone marrow examination was taken every 4 weeks. Results The response rate was 27.3 % (6 cases) according to International Working Group (IWG) criteria, no patient achieved completely remission(CR), 2 cases achieved partial remission(PR), 4 case achieved hematologic improvement(HI), 9 cases was stable and 7 cases was failure. Most of these cases had slight adverse events and could be tolerated. Conclusion Valproic acid combined with all-trans retinoic acid in the treatment of patients with myelodysplastic syndrome was efficient and side effect was tolerable.

Objective To investigate the current human resources and continuing education of clinical laboratories in Ningxia's hospitals and identify problems to resolve.Methods A questionnaire survey was made to study the current human resources in clinical laboratories of hospitals in Ningxia,and the data obtained were analyzed.Results There were 676 laboratory staff employed in 75 clinical 5.1.In terms of education,the ratio their titles ranging from postgraduate,graduate,college Differences in their continuing education are significant statistically.Conclusion Imbalance is found in the distribution of academic titles,education and age groups in such clinical laboratories,with a shortage of those of high academic title and education,and great gaps in continuing education.

Objective To investigate the temperament of children with epilepsy and the effects of various epilepsy-related variables on it. Methods The temperament of 60 pairs of epilepsy and normal children were assessed by temperament scale. The results of the two groups were compared. Epilepsy-related variables were analyzed. Result The scores of all dimensional variables in the epilepsy group were higher than that in normal group. The differences in adaptability and intensity of response between the two groups was statistically significant ( P <0. 05), and the differences in rhythmicity, approach-withdrawal toward new situations, emotional nature and persistence were more notable ( P <0.01). The temperament of epilepsy children was incline to difficult temperament( X2 = 10. 91, P <0.01). Age at onset of epilepsy, main caregiver and maternal education level had impaction on the temperament of epilepsy children..Conclusions The temperaments of epilepsy children tend to be negative. Children's temperaments are inclined to easy when their mothers are well educated and their main caregivers are parents, while they tend to be difficult temperament when the age of onset is early.

A mobile operating room information management system with electronic medical record (EMR) is designed to improve work efficiency and to enhance the patient information sharing. In the operating room, this system acquires the information from various medical devices through the Client/Server (C/S) pattern, and automatically generates XML-based EMR. Outside the operating room, this system provides information access service by using the Browser/Server (B/S) pattern. Software test shows that this system can correctly collect medical information from equipment and clearly display the real-time waveform. By achieving surgery records with higher quality and sharing the information among mobile medical units, this system can effectively reduce doctors' workload and promote the information construction of the field hospital.

Objective: To establish an HPLC fingerprint spectrum of Mongolian medicine Rubus sachalinensis. Methods: An HPLC was performed on the column of phenomsil ODS (250 mm × 4. 6 mm,5 μm) with the mobile phase of 0. 3% phosphoric acid-MeOH with gradient elution at a flow rate of 1. 0 ml·min-1 ,the detection wavelength was 290 nm, the column temperature was 25 ℃and the injection volume was 20 μl. Totally 7 batches of Rubus sachalinensis from different habitats were analyzed. Results:The RSD of relative retention time of the common peaks of Rubus sachalinensis was less than 3%, and that of relative peak areas was below 3%as well, which were in accordance with the requirements of fingerprint. Conclusion:The established HPLC fingerprint has promising accuracy, repeatability and stability, which can be used as one basis for the quality control of Rubus sachalinensis.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance of serum lipids level changes in patients with acute leukemia.Method Serum total cholesterol(TC),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C),triglyceride(TG),apolipoprotein A1(apoA1),apolipoprotein B(apoB)were determined by using enzymatic methods before treatment and in complete remission period.Results The level of TC,LDL-C,HDL-C,apoA1,apoB before treatment were significantly lower than that in control group and in period of complete remission (P

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect and safety of micro-dosage heparin therapy for acute leukemia with pre-diffuse intravascular coagulation (pre-DIC).Methods 36 cases of acute leukemia with pre-DIC were divided into two groups,18 cases were treated with micro-dosage heparin therapy (group A),18 cases were treated with conventional therapy(group B).Results Within the first 10 days,the cases which transformed to diffuse intravascular coagulation (DIC) in group A were significantly lower than group B(P

Objective To investigate the Toxoplasma gondii infection situation and relative factors in reproductive women in Shandong area,so as to provide the evidences for establishing strategies for reducing the birth defects and improving the quality of population. Methods A total of 5 386 reproductive women who visited hospitals at county and city levels in Shandong region from January 2013 to December 2015 were treated as the research objects,and their venous blood samples were collected to de?tect the antibodies(IgG and IgM)against T. Gondii in serum. Meanwhile,the related risk factors of T. gondii infection were sur?veyed by questionnaires. Results Among the 5 386 reproductive women,623 ones were positive for IgG antibody and the posi?tive rate was 11.56%,and 328 ones were positive for IgM antibody and the positive rate was 6.21%. The single factor analysis showed that the pregnant status(χ2 =13.12,P<0.01),whether the residences were in downtowns or counties(χ2 =6.27, P<0.05),whether having animal contact history(χ2=10.46,P<0.01),and whether eating half?baked foods(χ2=21.19, P < 0.01)were related to T. gondii infection. Conclusions The T. gondii infection rate of reproductive women in Shandong Province is high;the related risk factors include pregnant status,residence,degree of intimate contact with animal,and wheth?er eating half?baked foods. It suggests that the detection of T. gondii infection and health education in reproductive women should be strengthened.

Objective To investigate the prognostic value of Fms-like tyrosine kinase3, intenal tandem duplication (FLT3-ITD) detection by DNA extracted from stored bone marrow slides in chemical method. Methods Trace DNA was extracted from 58 bone marrow slides which were stored for 1-5 years below 20 ℃, including 48 patients with de novo acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and 10 controls without hematologic malignancies. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) was used to detect the FLT3-ITD of these bone marrow slides samples. Results There were 6 patients of FLT3-ITD+ detected in these 48 AML patients (12.5 %, 6/48). No FLT3-ITD was found in 10 healthy controls. AML patients with FLT3-ITD+ had low complete time compared with FLT3-ITD-patients (x2= 7.274, P= 0.007). Splenohepatomegalia and FLT3 mutation were the risk factors affecting AML patients with CR after the first chemotherapy (OR= 7.2, P=0.12; OR=36.3, P=0.10). FLT3-ITD was a risk factor of poor prognosis in patients with newly diagnosed AML (RR=9.088, P= 0.029). Conclusion Extraction of AML bone marrow slides trace DNA by using chemical method can be widely applied in clinic and is a key experimental way to study the molecular biology retrospectively. Furthermore, the detection of FLT3-ITD by trace DNA extracted from stored bone marrow slides can be used to predict the prognosis of AML.
