Objective To evaluate the performance of the Beckman Coulter ACT-5DIFF AL automated hematology analyzer and to verify whether it meets the clinical requirement.Methods The residual contamination rate,accuracy,precision,uncertainty,measurement range,reference interval,and sample injection pattern of detecting system were evaluated.Results The residual contamination of each parameter was less than or equal to 0.18％.According to room between qualitative evaluation results,compared to the target value,bias ranged from 0.32％ to 2.29％.Different concentrations of laboratory variation coefficient (namely precision) of each parameter ranged from 0.35％ to 4.46％,and both of which were less than a third of the CLIA'88 ability verification analysis quality requirements.The expanded uncertainty of each parameter was Uwhite blood cell (WBC) low =7.4％,UWBC high =3.8％,Ured blood cell (RBC) low =3.4 ％,U RBC high =2.8 ％,Uhemoglobin (HGB) low =3.9 ％,UHGB high =2.2 ％,Uplatelet (PLT) low =9.8 ％,UPLT high =7.6％,UMCV low =2.6％,and UMCV high =2.5％.Analysis had a wide measuring range:WBC (0.2 ～ 137.3) × 109/L,RBC(0.72 ～ 7.66) × 1012/L,HGB (20 ～ 231)g/L,PLT(25 ～983) × 109/L,and hematocrit (HCT) (6.1 ～68.0)％.All of them had a linear relationship,and the correlation coefficient of linear regression was close to 1.0.The reference interval quoted was suitable.Both of the automatic and the hand sample injection pattern had no significantly difference in result detection.Five categories of WBC were verified up to standard.Conclusions Under the circumstance of indoor quality control approved,each performance indicator approximately reached the laboratory quality requirements,and it also met the clinical requirements.

Objective To compare the effectiveness and safety of ultra-early (< 24 h)and delayed (≥ 24 h ) endovascular embolization of ruptured intracranial aneurysms with systematic review. Methods PubMed,Embase,the Cochrane Library,VIP,Wanfang Data,and China National Knowledge Internet (CNKI)were retrieved according to inclusion,exclusion criteria and retrieval strategies,and the clinical literature of ultra-early and delayed endovascular embolization for the treatment of ruptured intracranial aneurysms were obtained. The Review Manager 5. 3 software was used to conduct Meta-analysis for good prognosis rate,postoperative mortality,and postoperative rebleeding rate. Results A total of 10 articles were included,9 of them were retrospective control studies and 1 was prospective control study. A total of 2 021 patients were enrolled,including 970 patients treated with ultra-early treatment;1 051 patients treated with delayed treatment. There was significant difference in the good prognosis rate (OR,2. 67,95% CI 2. 07 -3. 44,P < 0. 01)and the postoperative rebleeding rate (OR,0. 23,95% CI 0. 11 -0. 47)between the ultra - early embolization group and the delayed embolization group (all P < 0. 01). There were no significant difference in the mortality between the two groups (OR,0. 76,95% CI 0. 51 -1. 13,P = 0. 17). The subgroup analysis showed that there were significant differences in the good prognosis rate in the ultra-early group compared with the early group (< 3 d,OR,1. 98,95% CI 1. 33 -2. 95)and the middle and late group (≥3 d,OR,4. 66,95% CI 2. 21 -9. 81,all P < 0. 01). Conclusion Compared with the delayed group, ultra-early embolization of ruptured intracranial aneurysms may improve the good prognosis rate,reduce the rebleeding rate,and not increase the mortality after procedure at the same time. However,more high quality and large sample randomized controlled trials are needed to confirm them.

The electrical pain perception were determined in healthy Chinese adults and factors were assessed. The anxiety-depression state of one hundred healthy Chinese were evaluated and the general information was recorded. Then electrical pain perception (perception threshold, pain threshold, pain tolerance) were assessed by neuromuscular monitor at the same time. Further study of influence factors such as gender, age, body mass index (BMI), left and right sides, degree of anxiety and depression, etc. were carried out on the pain perception. The results showed that 95% of the reference range of electrical perception threshold, pain threshold, pain tolerance were 4-7mA, 7 26mA and 15-60mA, respectively. The bilateral pain perception in males were significantly higher than that in females. There was no difference of effect between left and right sides. Age was positive related to pain perception, degree of depression was negative related to pain perception. BMI, degree of anxiety did not show association with pain perception. Therefore, gender, age and degree of depression were significantly related to electrical pain perception in healthy Chinese adults.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of pancreatic cancer muhieellular spheroids in chemosensitivity study. Methods Pancreatic adenocarcinoma cell lines SW1990, PCT-3 and ASPC-1 were cultured in collagen gel. When the muhicellular spheroids were formed, the drug chemosensitivities of Fluorouracil ( 5-FU ), Gemzar ( GEM ) and Oxaliplatin ( OXA ) were detected by CD-DST and CCK-8 methods. The results were compared with those of scattered cells model. Results The chemosensitivities of three pancreatic lines in form of multicellular spheroids were significantly lower than those of scattered cells model (P < 0. 05). The inhibitory rates of 50 μg/ml 5-FU on SW1990, PCT-3, ASPC-1 were (53.96 ±4.32)% ,(58.49±5.98)%, (49.57±4.36)% ;the inhibitory rates of 25 μg/ml GEM on SWI990,PCT-3, ASPC-1 were (53.02 ± 4.06) %, (61.90 ± 4.80) %, (38.09 ± 4.88 ) % ;the inhibitory rates of 10 μg/ml OXA on SW1990, PCT-3, ASPC-1 were (57.33 ± 6.27 ) %, (50.90 ± 4.80) %, (47.26 ± 4.29) % ;which were significantly lower than those of scattered cells model ( P < 0.05 ). Conclusions In collagen gel, formation of the multicellular spheroids of pancreatic cells caused less chemosensitivity and promoted anticancer drug resistance, which was consistent with in vivo state.
