The uncertainty of measurement is an important parameter for clincial laboratories. According to the definition, the uncertainty of measurement is a parameter, associated with the result of a measurement, that characterizers the dispersion of the values that could reasonably be attributed to the measurand. So we can use the results of Internal Quality Control to evaluate the uncertainty of measurement in clinical laboratories. The standard uncertainty is equal to the standard deviation.

This article develops a new failure database software for orthopaedics implants based on WEB. The software is based on B/S mode, ASP dynamic web technology is used as its main development language to achieve data interactivity, Microsoft Access is used to create a database, these mature technologies make the software extend function or upgrade easily. In this article, the design and development idea of the software, the software working process and functions as well as relative technical features are presented. With this software, we can store many different types of the fault events of orthopaedics implants, the failure data can be statistically analyzed, and in the macroscopic view, it can be used to evaluate the reliability of orthopaedics implants and operations, it also can ultimately guide the doctors to improve the clinical treatment level.

BACKGROUND: The graft versus host disease (GVHD) is the main reason for allogeneic hematopeic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) failure, and oral tolerization is a newly developed treating method.OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the inhibition effect of acute GVHD induced by feeding donors with recipient splenocytes orally before allo-HSCT in a murine model and to compare the immune tolerance with immunosupression agents currently used in clinical treatment.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A randomized grouping design of contrast observation was performed at the Center Laboratory of School of Medicine, Southeast University in December 2008.MATERIALS: The male C57BL/6J(H-2~b) mice were served as donors, and the female (BALB/C) mice (H-2~d) were served as recipients.METHODS: The mice were prepared allo-HSCT/GVHD models, and divided into 5 groups, which received prevent scheme. ①Oral tolerization group: C57BL/6J mice were fed with BALB/C (H-2~d) splenocytes before the transplantation, with dose of 10 μg per time, 1 day interval, for 3 times. ②Rapamycin group: mice were intragastric administrated rapamycin from the 1st after transplantation with dose of 1.5 mg/(kg·d). ③Ciclosporin A+ methotrexate group: mice were intragastric administrated ciclosporin A with 1.5 mg/(kg·d), increased to 5 mg/(kg·d) when mice were recovered the gastrointestinal function, and received intragastric administrated 0.4 mg/(kg·d) methotrexate at days 1, 3, 6 and 11 after transplantation. ④Blank control group: no medication after transplantation. ⑤Irradiation group: mice were received no transplantation.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The presence of GVHD after allo-HSCT, and the difference of immune tolerance index.RESULTS: Typical GVHD symptoms occurred in all mice after transplantation. In the blank control group, most mice dead at days 14-18 and the mortality was nearly 100%. Compared to the blank control group, the symptoms were significantly ameliorated and the median survival times were extended in the other 3 transplantation groups (P < 0.05). The pathological structures in liver, intestine and skin tissue in the oral tolerization group were significantly decreased. Flow cytometry assay showed that oral tolerization significantly increased the CD4~+/CD8~+ lymphocyte ratio and the percentage of the CD4~+CD25~+ cells.Oral tolerization also induced the decrease of GVHD-related cytokine level. The MTT results also showed that the immunologic tolerance in the oral tolerization group was significantly enhanced and the proliferation of lymphocyte was suppressed.CONCLUSION: Oral tolerization has obviously inhibitory effect towards GVHD after allo-HSCT, its exact mechanism may be due to the suppressing the proliferation of lymphocyte and increase the immunologic tolerance in recipients. Compared to the widely used immunosuppressive drugs, oral tolerization exhibits strong ability in ameliorating GVHD.

Objective To explore the incidence and risk factors of acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Methods The clinical data of 72 cases allo-HSCT from Oct 2004 to Dec 2008 were analyzed. Thirteen factors possibly correlated with the development of aGVHD were analyzed. Results aGVHD was developed in 32 cases (44.4 %), in which grades Ⅰ aGVHD was 11.1%, gradesⅡaGVHD was 18.1%, and grades Ⅲ-Ⅳ aGVHD was 15.3 %. The univariate analysis showed that diagnosis, the status of disease, use ATG, conditioning regimen, donor type,ABO blood group disparity between donor and recipient, CD34+ cell number, early engraftment and neutropenic infection, HLA locus were associated with the occurence of aGVHD (P ＜0.1). On the COX regression mode, an increased risk of aGVHD was associated with HLA mismatch (HR =2.58, P ＜0.005), GVHD prophylaxis without ATG (HR =2.94, P ＜ 0.001), and unrelated donor (HR =1.97, P ＜0.01). Conclusion aGVHD is a common complication after allo-HSCT, and HLA mismatch and unrelated donor are independent risk factors for aGVHD.

Objective To retrospectively analyze the anesthesia management of applying minimally invasive percutaneous neplrolithotripsy for treating hepatolithiasis.Methods The anaesthesia method,anesthetic effect,the time of resuscitation after anesthesia and side -effect of anesthesia in 86 patients who were underwent minimally invasive percutaneous neplrolithotripsy for hepatolithiasis were analyzed.Results All 86 patients were satisfied with anesthetic effect and completed surgery successfully.Among them,48 patients underwent operation with epidural anesthesia,31 patients with general anesthesia and 7 patients with the management of anesthesia monitoring(MAC) plus with local anesthesia.The time of resuscitation after anesthesia in general anesthesia patients was longer than those of epidural anesthesia and MAC.6 patients were delayed recovery and hypothermia after general anesthesia, 4 cases of epidural anesthesia and 1 case of MAC appeared cholecyst -heart reflection,and 2 cases of epidural anesthesia vomiting intraoperation.Conclusion The rational anesthesia method for patients underwent minimally invasive percutaneous neplrolithotripsy for treating hepatolithiasis should consider reasonably heart and lung function, maintain hemodynamics and respiratory stably,pay attention to insulation intraoperation,prevent cholecyst -heart reflection and shorten the operation time,which can reduce the side -effect of anesthesia and were favor for recovery after operation.

Objective To probe into the clinical value of the whole pelvis internal organs joint excision in locally advanced cervical carcinoma. Methods Four cases of local cervical carcinoma patients who have been implemented the peculiar operation from April 1997 to April 2001 were analyzed. Results The operation progressed well and the time of surviving was 4-41 months, 16.3 months in life cycle on average. 4 patients died of intestinal obstruction, vagina-small intestine atrophy and the pain of pelvis which resulted in a hunger strike and lung metastasis. Conclusion Implement the operation to those patients whose rectum and bladder were invaded simultaneously can lengthen a patient's life cycle and improve the quality of surviving. To grasp the operation target, standardize the step and improve the treatment method before and after operation were necessary.

Objective To evaluate the effect of staged repair for tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) associated with pulmonary artery hy- poplasty.Methods From June 1996 to June 2006,37 patients with TOF were operated on.There were 26 males and 11 females. Their age was 5 months to 17 years(mean 3.6 years) and weight was 4.6～38.0 kg.All patients were diagnosed as TOF with pulmo- nary artery hypoplasty by cardiac catheterization.The mean pre-operative arterial saturation of the patients was (68.2?6.5) %,Mc- Coon ratio was 0.95?0.26 (0.81～1.17) and Nakata index was 82.7?21.6(71.6～97.5) mm~3/m~2.At the time of the first surgi- cal procedure,17 patients underwent central aortopulmonary shunt,13 patients received modified Blalock-Taussig shunt in the left side and 7 patients had modified Blalock-Taussig shunt in the right side.Results There were no easly operative deaths and no late deaths after the first stage repair.Pleural effusion after shunt occurred in 5 patients.The mean arterial saturation was significantly increased to (91.3?10.4) %,P
