Objective To study the effects of aircraft, railway and highway transportations on the quality of red cell suspension.Methods Red cell suspensions from aircraft, railway and highway transportations were randomly selected, 10 units each, and stored for about 20 days as test groups, Another 10 unites of red cell suspensions were collected and stored for 20 days to serve as the control group. Biochemical indicators, including lactic dehydrogenase(LDH), Na+, K+ and Cl-were tested by automatic biochemistry analyzer. Free hemoglobin (FHb) was measured by chromatometry of 3 wavelengths. PO2 was detected by blood gas analyzer. The rate of red blood anaerobic glycolysis and osmotic fragility were also tested. The microstructure of red blood cells (RBCs) was observed by scanning electron microscope.Results The rates of anaerobic glycolysis of aircraft and railway transported red cell suspensions were (42.9?5.6)% and (42.2?3.1)%, respectively, significantly lower than those of highway transportation and the control group, which were (60.4?5.9)% and (70.1?7.8)%, respectively. FHb concentrations in erythrocyte suspension from aircraft and railway transportations were (1.37?0.31) mg/ml and (1.28?0.41) mg/ml, respectively, significantly higher than those of the highway transportation and the control group, which were (0.37?0.05) mg/ml and (0.31?0.03) mg/ml, respectively. LDH level and Na+ concentrations in erythrocyte suspension from aircraft and railway transportations were significantly higher than those from highway transportation and the control group. PO2 was decreased significantly in red cell suspension from aircraft transportation, and the osmotic fragility was increased. K+ was increased significantly in red cell suspension from railway transportation. Cl-was not changed. The aircraft and railway transported RBCs showed agglutination, spherical changes and ragged edges. Many thorn RBCs could be found in these samples. The morphology of RBCs after highway transportation had normal shape , but a few were spherical and ragged at edges. The RBCs of the control group was in double-faced concave disc shape and equably suspended.Conclusion The quality of red cell suspension is closely related to the different ways of transportation. Under certain circumstances, the quality of red cell suspension from highway transportation is superior to that from aircraft and railway transportations.

Objective:To provide the basic data for the further revision of mycoplasma test method described in Chinese Pharma-copoeia and some references for the operation standardization of drug mycoplasma test. Methods:Two incubation conditions,namely aerobic conditions and microaerophilic conditions,were compared with respect to the growth status of mycoplasma in liquid and solid media. Results:The growth of mycoplasma was obvious difference between the two incubation conditions,and the microaerophilic con-ditions were better than the aerobic conditions. Conclusion:The microaerophilic conditions can be used in the incubation of mycoplas-ma test,which should be defined and standardized in the future Chinese Pharmacopoeia.

Microbiological data deviations ( MDD) investigation differs from out of the standard ( OOS) investigation in chemical inspection items. Investigating Out-of-Specification( OOS) Test Results for Pharmaceutical Production issued by FDA specifically ex-cludes microbiological and other biological assays. Until recently, there is not a definitive guideline for MDD investigation in the world. Some institutions and experts have explored the practice and theory of MDD investigation. Referred to the existing practical experience and theoretical achievement and based on the provisions of Chinese GMP (2010 revision) and the requirements of Chinese Pharmaco-poeia Ⅱ(2010 edition) Appendix XIX Q, the article discussed the methods for MDD laboratory investigation.

Objective:To investigate the growth-promoting properties and applicability of the mycoplasma test culture media pre-scribed in Chinese pharmacopoeia, and provide reference for the standardization of the drug mycoplasma test method. Methods: Re-spectively using four quantitative detection methods including sensitivity, degree of color change, colony counts and colony diameter, and mycoplasma media widely used in the world as the reference media, the growth-promoting properties of 4 batches of mycoplasma broth and 4 batches of arginine mycoplasma broth from four domestic manufacturers were investigated. Results:The results of sensitivity assay and absorbance detection showed that all the media inoculated with below 100 CFU test microorganisms exhibited visible color change. Furthermore, the results of color change degree and colony diameter showed that there were significant differences among the media products from different manufacturers(P<0. 01). Conclusion:Mycoplasma broth and arginine mycoplasma broth both can sup-port the growth of below 100 CFU test microorganisms. Due to the difference in the growth-promoting properties among the media prod-ucts from different manufacturers, the drug mycoplasma test workers should use more sensitive methods to examine the applicability of the media.

Objective To investigate the abnormal characteristics of electrocardiogram and its early diagnostic value in acute pulmonary embolism (PE) of different positions.Methods A total of 147 hospitalized patients of acute PE diagnosed by the pulmonary artery CT angiography (CTA) were enrolled in this study and divided into the following two groups:pulmonary trunk or main pulmonary artery (MPA) embolism (group A) and lobar artery or remote branch embolism (group B).ECG,D-dimer,BNP,cTnT were collected and determined,the varieties of abnormal ECG were counted.Then,the relationships between the severities of the PEs at different positions and the corresponding ECG abnormalities as well as the degree of right ventricular hypertrophy (RVH) were analyzed.Results There were significant differences in dyspnea,syncope,in-hospital mortality and the level of cTnT,BNP between the two groups (P ＜ 0.05).There were significant differences in the occurrence of SIQ Ⅲ T Ⅲ,right bundle branch block (RBBB),ST segment depression (STD) in leads Ⅲ and aVF,ST segment elevation (STE) in lead aVR,negative T waves (NTWs) in leads Ⅲ and aVF,STD in leads V1-V3/V6,and STE in leads V1-V3 in combination with STD in leads V4-V6 between the two groups (P ＜ 0.05).The proportion of RVH diagnosed via ECG has significantly different between the two groups.The result of correlation analysis showed that the incidence of pulmonary trunk or MPA embolism was significantly related to the number of ECG abnormalities (r =0.782,t =-7.086,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions The number of abnormal ECGs increase and the RVH is more serious when PE occurring in pulmonary trunk as well as in the MPA,early recognition of electrocardiographic abnormalities is of greater value in the diagnosis of acute pulmonary trunk and MPA embolism.

AIM: To evaluate the clinical outcomes of combined wavefront - guided and aspheric laser in situ keratomileusis ( LASIK ) to correct myopia and myopic astigmatism.
METHODS: Prospective study. Forty-five patients ( 62 eyes ) with myopia and myopic astigmatism were randomly dividied into two groups:the wavefront-guided and aspheric LASIK group and the wavefront- guided LASIK group. Safety, efficacy, predictability, ocular higher order aberrations(HOAs), and contrast sensitivity under mesopic condition were compared at 6mo postoperatively.
RESULTS: Both platforms had equal safety, efficacy and predictability. At 6mo after operation, total HOAs, spherical aberration and coma increased in both groups(P<0. 01 ). The changes of total HOAs and spherical aberration in wavefront-guided and aspheric group were significantly less than those in wavefront-guided group ( P<0.05 ) , while the change of coma between two groups was not statistically significant ( P = 0. 657 ). Contrast sensitivity in the wavefront-guided and aspheric group recovered to preoperative levels under mesopic conditions at all spatial frequencies ( P > 0. 05 ), while contrast sensitivity in the wavefront-guided group recovered to preoperative levels at all spatial frequencies(P>0. 05).
CONCLUSION: Wavefront-guided and aspheric LASIK induced less HOAs and associated with better mesopic contrast sensitivity compared with wavefront - guided LASIK.

AIM: To analyze the characteristics of neurological ophthalmology manifestation of patients with neurosyphilis. · METHODS: Retrospective and nonrandomized case analysis were used. Totally 22 cases of 39 eyes were included. They were 17 males and 5 females, aged from 34 to 65 years old. The average age were 49. 6 years old. ·RESULTS: The optic nerve atrophy presented in 11 cases of 22 eyes. One eye of them accompanied by left eye oculomotor nerve palsy;5 eyes in 3 cases expressed as optic neuritis acute phase;neuroretinitis appeared in 4 cases of 6 eyes; 1 case of 2 eyes expressed as chorioretinitis accompanied by optic disc edema; central retinal artery occlusion were found in 1 case of 1 eye. Argyll-Robertson pupil was as only manifestation in 2 cases of 3 eyes. In all cases, Argyll-Robertson pupil signs can be seen in 19 eyes. Treponema pallidum particle agglutination test ( TPPA) were positive in all 22 cases. Syphilis rapid plasma reactin test ( RPR ) were positive in 19 of 21 cases. All patients underwent lumbar puncture and cerebrospinal fluid were detected for RPR, cerebrospinal fluid protein, white blood cell count. Cerebrospinal fluid RPR were positive in 13 cases. Cerebrospinal fluid protein were greater than 450mg/L in 18 cases. Cerebrospinal fluid white blood cell count were greater than 5/mm3 in 13 cases. · CONCLUSION: Neurosyphilis involving neuro -ophthalmology often occurs in middle-aged men and subacute onset. Both eyes can suffered from optic nerve disease simultaneously or sequencely. A few can be expressed as other cranial nerve palsy, which may lead to misdiagnosis. Considering medical history, clinical manifestations, ophthalmic examination, serum and cerebrospinal fluid laboratory tests can improve the diagnostic rate.

Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is a common clinical disease causing vision loss. Risk factors such as diabetes, atherosclerosis are closely associated with RVO. Xuesaitong injection is used extensively in clinical treatment of RVO, however the mechanism is still unclear. In this study, we investigated the protective effect of Xuesaitong injection on RVO rat model. Using a compound-target network of Xuesaitong on anti-RVO constructed by literature mining, we aim to elucidate the multi-compound, multi-target effect of Xuesaitong injection. Fifteen potential targets of Xuesaitong injection associated with inflammation, angiogenesis, apoptosis, and coagulation were identified in this study. VEGF, IL-1beta and IL-6, three important targets in the compound-target network were further experimentally validated. This study provided experimental evidence for Xuesaitong injection being effective in treating RVO and a network view on its anti-RVO mode of action through a multi-compound and multiple-target mechanism.

L9 (3(4)) orthogonal experiment was used to design the extraction technology of compound Clematidis Radix spray. Weight coefficients of active ingredients and dry extract rate were solved by information entropy. Support vector machine (SVM) was established and the model parameters were optimized through the genetic algorithm. Grid search algorithm was used for optimization of extraction technology of Clematidis Radix spray. The optimal extraction technology was to extract Clematidis Radix spray in water with 6 times the weight of herbal medicine for 3 times, with 2 h once. Bias of value between real and predicted by SVM was 1.23%. SVM was compared with traditional intuitive analysis of orthogonal design. It indicates that the new method used to optimize the extraction parameters of compound Clematidis Radix spray is more accurate and reliable.
