International Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2015;(1):5-7
Objective To explore the optimal immunohistochemical (IHC)diagnostic index for supraclavicular lymph node me-tastasis in lung cancer.Methods In the premise of conforming to the evidence-based medicine,the biopsy of lymph node in 135 pa-tients with supraclavicular lymph node metastasis was performed and 7 antibodies were selected to be detected.135 cases were di-vided into two classes:class A (110 cases)and B (25 cases).The class A included 14 cases of primary lesion inside the lung by the histological analysis,43 cases of primary lesion inside the lung by the cytological detection and 53.cases of primary lesion inside the lung by the radiographic analysis.The class B included 25 cases of lesion outside the lung by the histological analysis.The detecting antibodies included CK7,CK20,EMA,CEA,TTF-1,SPB and vimentin.Results The sensitivity and specificity of single antibody for deducing the primary lesion inside the lung were 90.0% and 56.0% for CK7,98.0% and 40.0% for CK20,90.9% and 4.0%for EMA,80.9% and 36.0% for CEA,62.7% and 100.0% for TTF-1,65.6% and 100.0% for SPB,and 60.9% and 60.0% for vimentin.The quadruple antibodies (CK7,CK20,TTF-1 and SPB)showed the highest sensitivity(85.0%)and highest specificity (100.0%),which made the relatively high detection rate (80.0%)of lung cancer in clinic.Conclusion Analyzing and researching the IMC results is of great significance to guide the surgical pathological practice based on the evidence-based medicine.

Objective To evaluate the left atrial function and to explore its determinants in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy by three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE).Methods 46 patients with HCM (obstructive HCM:25 cases,nonobstructive HCM:21 cases) and 46 healthy cases (controls) were enrolled in this study.Time-volume curve of left atrium was acquired by 3DE in all subjects.Left atrial maximal volume (LAVmax),left atrial minimal volume (LAVmin) and left atrial presystolic volume (LAVp) were acquaired.Left atrial volume index (LAVI),left atrial expansion index (LAEI),left atrium emptying fraction (LAEF),left atrium passive emptying fraction (LAPEF) and 1eft atrium active emptying fraction (LAAEF) were calculated.Comparative analysis between two groups was taken .The Spearman correlation analysis and multiple linear regression analysis between left atrial volume index (LAVI) with interventricular septal thickness (IVSd),left ventricular outflow tract peak gradient (LVOT-PG),mitral regurgitation (MI), left ventricular diastolic function (LVDF) were analyzed respectively .Results Compared to the controls LAVmax (45.67 ±11.96)ml,LAVmin (20.48 ±6.80)ml,LAVp (24.48 ±9.31)ml,LAVI 25.63 ±6.52, LAEI (1.32 ±0.49)%,LAEF (55.25 ±8.06)%,LAPEF (35.90 ±7.00)%and LAAEF (30.20 ±10.13)%, the patient with HCM had a significantly larger LAVmax (81.45 ±24.24)ml,LAVmin (44.60 ±18.96)ml, LAVp (61.00 ±21.64) ml and LAVI 45.39 ±14.17,there were significant differences among the groups (t=8.978,8.123,9.227,8.436,all P<0.01),lower LAEI(0.95 ±0.43)%,LAEF (46.15 ±11.12)%, LAPEF (25.64 ±9.09)%,there were significant differences among the groups (t=-3.865,-4.493,-6.504,all P<0.01),and slightly lower LAAEF (28.20 ±9.26)%,there were no significant differences among the groups (t=-0.656,P>0.01).There were significant positive correlation between LAVI and IVSd,LVOT-PG,MI,LVDF respectively (r=0.704,0.517,0.640,0.701,all P<0.01).Multiple linear regression analysis demonstrated that IVSd , LVOT-PG, MI and LVDF were correlated factors of LAVI (absolute standardized coeffients =0.264,0.515,0.614,0.341,all P<0.05).Conclusions 3DE could evaluate the left atrial volume and function in patients with HCM , with increased left atrial volume and decreased reservioer,conduit and booster pump function .Mitral regurgitation,obstruction of left ventricular outflow tract,left ventricular diastolic dysfunction and the thickness of left ventricular wall contributed to left atrial dysfunction at different levels ,among which mitrial regurgitation contributed the most .

Objective To explore the relationship between the levels of plasma coagulation factors (F) and acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in low age period (<60 years old) and their diagnostic value in diagnosing AMI in low age period.Methods One hundred and sixty inpatients with low age AMI in the cardiology department of the Heze Municipal Hospital were selected as the case group,and contemporaneous 160 cases of low age non-AMI served as the control group.F Ⅱ,FⅦ,FⅧ,fibrinogen (Fg) and von willebrand (vWF) were measured with enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent anti-sandwich assay.The relationship between coagulation factors and low age AMI was analyzed with univariate and multivariate analysis,and their value for diagnosing low age AMI was evaluated with diagnostic test and receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve.Results The univariate analysis showed that FⅡ,FⅦ,FⅧ and Fg levels had significantly statistical difference between the case group and control group(P<0.05),and the vWF level had no statistically difference(P>0.05).The multivariate analysis indicated that the FⅡ level≥ 14.27 μg/L and FⅦ level ≥22.99 μg/L were the independent risk factors for low age AMI.The value of FⅡ for diagnosing low age AMI was lower,and the optimal cut off value of Fg for diagnosing low age AMI was 22.99 μg/L,its area under ROC curve was 0.709 with a moderate diagnostic value,and the sensitivity (91.88%) and negative predictive value (86.02%) were higher,the false negative rate (13.98%) was lower,and the accuracy (70.94%) was moderate.Conclusion The FⅡ level ≥14.27 μg/L and Fg level ≥22.99 μg/L are the independent risk factors for low age AMI,and detecting the Fg level could have hint significance in diagnosing low age AMI.

A polydimethylsiloxane ( PDMS )/glass microfluidic chip consisting of a three-layer sandwich structure and three-parallel micro-electrode system was fabricated for the separation of polystyrene microspheres according to the particle size in high conductive solution by electric field produced by alternating current. The principle of electrokinetics of microspheres directional movement was investigated. The results showed that, when the applied voltage was 14 V at 100 kHz, the separation efficiency of 10 and 25 μm polystyrene microspheres was the best. Similarly, with a voltage of 10 V at 2 MHz, the separation efficiency of 5 and 25 μm polystyrene microspheres could achieve the highest value. Meanwhile, the voltage of 11 V at 1 MHz was suitable for the separation of 5 , 10 and 25 μm polystyrene microspheres with the separation efficiency of over 90%. At the same time, the formation of the laminar region in the middle of the electrode gap was the key role of microsphere separation.
