Objective To explore the value of bone marrow megakaryocyte counts in predicting clinical response of thrombocytopenia (TP) in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients. Methods Thirty-one patients of SLE with severe TP (platelet ≤50×109/L) from Peking Union Medical College Hospital during 2007 to 2014 with appreciable bone marrow aspiration results were retrospectively analyzed. Their therapeutic responses were stratified and the correlation with clinical and laboratory findings including the megakaryocyte counts in bone marrow were evaluated with logistic multivariate regression. Results Totally fifteen patients obtained complete response (CR), eight patients obtained partial response (PR) and eight no response (NR). Megakaryocyte counts in bone marrow were (101±26)/slide, (156±48)/slide and (34±15)/slide respectively with statistically significant difference (χ2=6.632, P=0.036). Those NR patients had less megakaryocytes in their bone marrow compared with those with clinical response (CR+PR) (Z=-2.438, P=0.015). By ROC curve method, we found 20/slide might be a good cutoff of megakaryocyte counts in bone marrow for determining the therapeutic response of immunotherapy with a sensitivity of 91% and a specificity of 63% and a AUC (area under the curve) of 0.793. Those with 20/slide or less megakaryocytes in bone marrows only had a clinical effective response rate of 29% verse a response rate of 88% in those with more megakaryocytes in bone marrow. Conclusion Megakaryocyte counts in bone marrow may provide predictive value for therapeutic response of severe TP in SLE patients. Those patients with equal or less than 20/slide megakaryocytes in their bone marrow tend to have poor therapeutic response.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics and treatment Methods of severe com?plications after percutaneous tracheotomy( PDT) in neurosurgery patients,and to provide reference for the treat?ment and rescue of these patients. Methods A retrospective analysis of 578 cases after PDT was performed in Neurosurgery Intensive Care Unit ( NSICU ) of Xuanwu Hospital of Capital Medical University from 2005 to 2015. The types of complications,treatment method and prognosis were analyzed. Follow?up was 3 months to 1 year. Results Eighteen cases with severe complications,including bleeding,wound infection,asphyxia caused by tracheal mucosa suffocation,airway stenosis caused by granulation tissue,subcutaneous emphysema and neu?momediastinum,etc. After treatment and active rescue,most patients recovered,no patients die directly associated with surgery. Conclusion PDT plays an important role in the treatment of patients in NSICU,but it is still pos?sible to have serious complications,so physicians must understand and be prepared for complications,and pay more attention to prevent poor prognosis.
