Objective To understand the incidence of hemolytic disease in newborn (HDN)among the newborns with jaundice and the coincidence degree of the blood group serological results and the clinical diagnosis in HDN.Methods The microcolumn gel method was adopted to detect the 3 serological indexes in 276 jaundice newborns of maternal fetal blood group incompatibility,in-cluding the direct antiglobulin test,free antibody test and antibody release test.Results 108 cases of HDN were clinically diagnosed with the positive rate of 39.13%.The positive detection rate in newborns with 0-2 d old was highest(50.00%).Conclusion The serological test can provide the basis for the early diagnosis and treatment of HDN.Collecting the specimen as early as possible can improve the positive diagnosis rate of HDN.

Objective To establish the model of goat intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) induced by controllable axial compressive stress and evaluate its imaging and pathological characteristics. Methods Twenty goats were randomly divided into 4 groups (control group, 4-week pressure group, 8-week pressure group, 12-week pressure group, n=5, 40 N pressure). Disc height index (DHI) was used to evaluate the change of intervertebral disc height by X-ray, Pfirrmann classification method was used to observe the degree of intervertebral disc degeneration by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and histopathological observation and evaluation for intervertebral disc were conducted by HE staining and immunohistochemistry. Results DHI in control group showed no significant changes with the extension of pressure time, while DHI in the experimental group gradually decreased. There was no significant change in Pfirrmann classification in control group. In experimental group, with the extension of time, the higher the degeneration aggravated with the Pfirrmann classification increasing. In experimental group, HE staining showed that the disc nucleus pulposus decreased in volume and nucleus pulposus cells, which were gradually replaced by fibrous tissues. Immunohistochemical staining showed that type I collagen in the nucleus pulposus gradually increased, type Ⅱ collagen gradually decreased, and intervertebral disc degeneration occurred. Conclusions A certain axial compressive stress can lead to degeneration of goat lumbar intervertebral disc, and the degree of degeneration is gradually increased with the extension of time.
