The efficiency of cold storage red blood cells (CSRBC) or whole blood at -80 degrees C used in 27 Rh (D) negative patients during surgical operation was reported. The Rh (D) negative patients received the transfusion of CSRBC or whole blood stored at -80 degrees C for 180 to 360 days. The changes in the indexes, such as blood TB, DB, K+, Na+, BUN, Cr, urine protein (URPO), UOB, Hb, HCT, serum total protein, relative to hemolytic reaction and blood volume before and after transfusion were observed. The results showed that after transfusion of CSRBC or whole blood 27 cases were negative for urine protein and UOB, and the levels of BUN and Cr were normal (P > 0.05). Blood TB, DB, Hb, and HCT were increased, while pH, blood K+ and blood Na+ was normal with the difference being not significant before and after operation (P > 0.05). Plasma protein was decreased, but there was no significant difference before and after operation (P > 0.05). It was suggested that CSRBC or whole blood at -80 degrees C could be safely infused to the Rh(D) negative patients without side effects during the surgical operation.

Objective To investigate the effects of adenovirus containing human beta-nerve growth factor (Ad-hNGFβ) gene on substance P (SP) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) content of the spinal cord in a rat model of neuropathic pain by chronic constrictive injury (CCI). Methods Forty-eight male SD rats weighing 200-250 g were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=16 each) : group Ⅰ sham operation; group Ⅱ CCI and group Ⅲ CCI + Ad-hNGFβ gene IT. The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal choral hydrate 300-350 mg/kg. The right sciatic nerve was exposed and 4 ligatures were placed on the sciatic nerve at 1-2 nun intervals as described by Bennet and Xie[5]. In sham operation group, right sciatic nerve was exposed but not ligated. In group Ⅰ and Ⅱ artificial cerebrnspinal fluid was injected IT instead of Ad-hNGFβ gene. The behavior score and the paw-withdrawal latency (PWL) to radiant heat and mechanical stimulus were measured one day before operation and every 4 days within the 28 days after gene transfection. Four animals were killed at 4, 7, 14 and 28 day after IT gene transfection in each group and lumbar segment (L4-6 ) of the spinal cord was removed for determination of SP and CGRP content by immunohistochemistry. Results The behavior scores were significantly higher and PWL to radiant heat and mechanical stimulus were significantly lower in group Ⅱ and Ⅲ than in group Ⅰ. There was no significant difference in the behavior score and PWL to mechanical stimulus between group Ⅱ and Ⅲ while the PWL to radiant heat was significantly higher in group Ⅲ than in group Ⅱ. After operation SP and CGRP content were significantly higher in group Ⅱ and group Ⅲ than in group Ⅰ , and significangly lower in group Ⅲ than in group Ⅱ 7-28 days after operation. Conclusion The recomhinant Ad-hNGFβ gene transfection can attenuate heat hyperalgesia by reducing SP and CGRP content of the spinal cord in a rat model of neuropathic pain induced by CCI.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of DWI after secretin stimulation for the diagnosis of mild chronic pancreatitis (CP). Methods This was a prospective study. Ninety-nine consecutive individuals including 23 healthy volunteers, 11 risk volunteers, 15 mild CP patients, 14 moderate CP patients and 36 severe CP patients underwent secretin DWI and faecal elastase 1(FE-1) testing. The subjects were grouped by Cambridge classification about endoscopic retrograde cholangiography (ERCP), CT and ultrasonography. Secretin stimulated diffusion weighted imaging(S-DWI), the ADCs, time to peak ADCs and FE-1 were performed on all subjects. The changes of pancreatic ADC values were observed before and after the injection of secretin. All ADCs and FE-1 were compared between groups with single factor analysis of variance, and the correlation between ADCs and FE-1 was determined with Pearson analysis. ROC curves were performed to identify the diagnostic efficacy of DWI related measures. Results Eight patients with severe CP were excluded because the significant atrophy of the pancreatic parenchyma prohibited the evaluation of ADC measurement. Ninety-one individuals were divided into five groups including 23 healthy volunteers, 11 risk volunteers, 15 mild CP patients, 14 moderate CP patients and 28 severe CP patients. The mean baseline and peak ADCs were higher in the healthy volunteers than in other groups, with significant differences (P<0.05). There was no ADC peak in severe CP patients. There were significant differences between the mean baseline ADCs and the peak ADCs in the other groups (P<0.05). The mild and moderate CP groups showed a delayed peak. The area under curve (AUC) of the mean baseline and peak ADCs, time to peak ADCs for differentiating mild CP was 0.818, 0.912 and 0.965, respectively. Using 4.67 min as the cutoff value, time to peak ADCs were most accurate for differentiating healthy from risk patients and those with evident pancreatitis, yielding a sensitivity of 80.0%and a specificity of 100.0%. Good correlations between baseline and peak ADCs, time to peak ADCs, and FE-1 were shown(r=0.57, 0.72 and-0.84, P<0.01). Conclusions Using the peak and time to peak ADCs may improve the detection of risk and mild CP. Secretin-enhanced DWI is a noninvasive, convenient and accurate method.

Journal of Clinical Hepatology 2018;34(6):1160-1165
Due to a lack of specific biomarkers, the diagnosis of drug -induced liver injury (DILI) mainly depends on the method of exclusion.The Roussel Uclaf Causality Assessment Method (RUCAM) scale is the most widely used causality assessment scale and is relatively objective, but it is still waiting for further improvement.Another method is global introspection or expert opinion , which is relatively subjective,and the simplified global introspection method is commonly used in clinical practice .The Structured Expert Opinion Procedure (SEOP) created by the US DILI network (DILIN) is very complicated and time -consuming and thus cannot be used in clinical practice .The drug rechallenge test (DRT) with a positive result is considered the gold standard for the diagnosis of DILI , but DILI cannot be excluded based on the negative result of DRT.The value of lymphocyte transformation test (LTT), modified LTT, monocyte -derived hepatocyte -like cell lactate -dehydrogenase release test, and various predictive models for drug hepatotoxicity in the diagnosis of DILI awaits further assessment .The differential diagnosis of autoimmune -mediated DILI and traditional autoimmune liver diseases usually depends on liver biopsy , the type and titer of autoantibody, and response to glucocorticoids.Reasonable timing of drug withdrawal and application of anti -inflammatory liver -protecting drugs may help most DILI patients recover .Generally, the prophylactic use of anti -inflammatory liver -protecting drugs is not recommended, except in special situations.In -depth studies are needed for the precise diagnosis and prevention /treatment of DILI.
