BACKGROUND:Transfusion guidelines pointed out:whole blood should be stored at (4±2)℃. The bacterial growth or loss of function should occur if the blood leaves the suitable storage conditions. Recipients wil suffer from different degrees of blood transfusion reaction or invalid infusion.
OBJECTIVE:To observe morphology of erythrocytes of autologous blood stored at different temperatures using microscope.
METHODS:Blood was obtained from 40 cases of acute normovolemic hemodilution and stored in ACD citrate bags. Whole blood was respectively stored at 4 ℃ and 23 ℃. Blood smear was taken respectively in the blood storage immediately, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 hours after col ecting autologous blood. Changes in morphology of erythrocytes were observed with a microscope. Deformity rate of erythrocytes was calculated. Six blood samples were randomly selected to test pH, K+, and free hemoglobin respectively in 6-hour common temperature group and ACD banked blood within the valid period. Six blood samples were randomly selected for the bacterial culture in each group of two groups at 6 hours.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There were no significant differences in abnormality rates of erythrocytes between 4 ℃ and common temperature groups at each time point. The pH, K+, free hemoglobin at six hours in the common temperature group were better than those of ACD banked blood within the valid period and there was no bacterial growth in culture between the two groups. Therefore, it is feasible to transfuse autologous blood back to the patient within 6 hours of storage at room temperature.

Objective To investigate and evaluate the pregnancy outcomes and fetal loss after fetal reduction of triplets to twins or singleton pregnancy. Methods 282 cases of triplets who received multi-fetal pregnancy reduction (MFPR) at Shandong Provincial Hospital affiliated to Shandong University were recruited from Sep 2001 to Mar 2014. According to the remaining fetal number after MFPR, 231 cases were opted to reduce to twins (twins group) while 51 cases were opted to singleton pregnancy (singleton group).The indication of the former group was fetal abnormalities under ultrasound or on patients′ demand; while the indication for the later group included dichorionic triamniotic (DCTA) triplets or patients′ aspiration. Potassium chloride was injected into the targeted fetal heart until cardiac standstill was obtained. The pregnancy outcomes, gestational age at delivery, birth weight of newborns of the two groups were recorded. Successful pregnancy was defined as take-home at least one baby. Results (1)The overall rate of successful pregnancy was 91.5%(258/282).There were 413 neonates in the twins group, including 4 neonatal deaths and 409 live babies, with the successful rate of 90.5%(209/231). There were 49 neonates in the singleton group, including 2 cases of fetal loss. Thus the successful rate was 96.1%(49/51). There was no difference of successful pregnancy rate between the two groups(P>0.05).(2)The mean gestational age at operation for the twins group and singleton group were(16.5±3.5)weeks and (14.2±2.0) weeks, respectively. Each group was divided into three periods,11-13+6 weeks, 14-16+6 weeks and≥17 weeks.In the twins group, the cases in each time period were129(55.8%,129/231), 50(21.6%,50/231)and 52(22.5%,52/231), respectively. While in the singleton group, the cases in each time period were 27(53%,27/51), 16(31%, 16/51)and 8(16%,8/51).There was no difference between the two groups at each time period(P>0.05). (3)The fetal loss rate in the twins group were 7%(9/129), 12%(6/50), 10%(5/52) at each time period, respectively. While for the singleton group they were 4%(1/27), 0(0/16)and 1/8, respectively. There was no significant difference between the two groups at each time period(P>0.05).(4)The mean birth weight of the twins group was lower than the singleton group [(2 555±447) g vs (3 084±550) g, respectively, P<0.05].The rates of low birth weight infants(<2 499 g)in the twins group and the singleton group were 45.5%(188/413)and 8%(4/49), respectively(P<0.05).The rate of very low birth weight infants(≤1 499 g) was 3.9%(16/413)in the twins group compared with 0(0/49)in the singleton group(P>0.05).(5)The gestational age at delivery of the twins group was earlier than the singleton group [(36.2 ± 2.4) weeks vs(38.3 ± 2.2)weeks, respectively,P<0.05]. The labor rate of the two groups was significantly different for both 34-36+6 weeks and≥37 weeks(P<0.05).The full-term delivery rate in the twins group was 47.6%(110/231), and was 88.2%(45/51)in the singleton group(P<0.05). The fetal loss rate before 28 weeks did not differ between the two groups[8.7%(20/231)vs 3.9%(2/51), P>0.05].Conclusions Reduction to one fetus led to significantly better outcome than two fetuses, with no significant difference in fetal loss rate. It is better to advise patients with triplets reduce to singleton pregnancy.

Objective To explore the value of Swansea criteria on diagnosis and severity evaluation of acute fatty liver of pregnancy (AFLP).Methods Fifty-two AFLP patients were admitted to Shandong Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Shandong University between January 1,2000 and December 31,2011.All these cases were retrospectively reassessed by Swansea criteria.According to the severity,prognosis and whether continuous blood purification treatment was needed,these cases were classified as mild and severe cases.Differences between groups were detected by x2 or t test.Bivariate correlation analysis was used for Swansea criteria compliance and postnatal hemorrhage and days in hospital.Results After reassessing by Swansea criteria,31 cases could be diagnosed as AFLP (20 cases met seven or more criteria,11 cases met six criteria)and the other 21 cases could not (16 cases met five criteria,three cases met four,and two cases met three).For the 16 cases that met five Swansea criteria,they were confirmed as AFLP based on postnatal follow-up.The five cases that met four or three criteria were confirmed as AFLP because no other disease could explain their status.Among the patients who met seven or more Swansea criteria,the incidence of intrauterine fetal death was 40％ (8/20),and 65％ (13/20) needed continuous blood purification.These were higher than in patients who met six or fewer Swansea criteria [9％ (3/32) and 28％ (9/32),x2=6.921 and 6.857,P=0.014 and 0.011].Postpartum hemorrhage was positively correlated with Swansea criteria compliance (r2=0.286,P=0.040).Conclusion Patients who meet five Swansea criteria can be diagnosed as AFLP.Swansea criteria can be applied to the severity evaluation of AFLP.

Objective: To investigate the level and timeliness of CD4+T lymphocyte cell (CD4 cell) counts at first measurement among newly reported HIV/AIDS cases in Taizhou City, Zhejiang Province from 2012 to 2021, so as to provide insights into improving the management of HIV/AIDS cases. Methods: Demographic data and first measurement of CD4 cell counts of newly reported HIV/AIDS cases in Taizhou City from 2012 to 2021 were collected from the HIV/AIDS Comprehensive Control System of Chinese Disease Prevention and Control Information System. The level and time of CD4 cell counts at first measurement were descriptively analyzed, and factors affecting CD4 cell counts at first measurement were identified using a multivariable logistic regression model. Results: A total of 4 834 newly reported HIV/AIDS cases were recorded in Taizhou City from 2012 to 2021, including 3 889 men (80.45%), 2 005 cases at ages of 20 to 39 years (41.48%), and 2 130 farmers (44.06%). There were 1 664 cases (34.42%) with CD4 cell counts of <200/mm3 at first detection, 2 576 (53.29%) with CD4 cell counts of 200/mm3 to 499/mm3, and 594 (12.29%) with CD4 cell counts of ≥500/mm3. The proportion of CD4 cell counts of <200/mm3 showed a tendency towards a rise from 2012 to 2021 (χ2trend =4.250, P<0.001). There were 3 465 cases (71.68%) that had an interval of ≤14 days between the first detection of CD4 cell counts and confirmatory HIV test, 740 (15.31%) that had an interval of >14 to 30 days, 315 (6.52%) that had an interval of >30 to 90 days, 135 (2.79%) that had an interval of >90 to 180 days, and 179 (3.70%) that had an interval of >180 days. The proportion of an interval of ≤14 days appeared a tendency towards a rise from 2012 to 2021 (χ2trend=6.874, P<0.001). Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified women (OR=0.630, 95%CI: 0.529-0.751), age of ≥20 years (OR: 1.958 to 3.218, 95%CI: 1.216-5.412), other or unknown routes of HIV infection (OR=1.785, 95%CI: 1.100-2.896), and identification by medical institutions (OR=1.779, 95%CI: 1.497-2.114) as factors affecting CD4 cell counts of <200/mm3 at first measurement. Conclusions The timely detection of CD4 cell counts at first measurement gradually increased with year among newly reported HIV/AIDS cases in Taizhou City from 2012 to 2021; however, there were still 34.42% of cases with CD4 cell counts of <200/mm3. Gender, age, route of HIV infection, and sample source were factors affecting CD4 cell counts of <200/mm3 at first measurement.

Objective:To analyze the predictive ability of HIV infection risk assessment tool for men who have sex with men (MSM). Sentinel surveillance data of MSM in Taizhou prefecture of Zhejiang province was used.Methods:MSM involved in AIDS sentinel surveillance program in Taizhou from 2013 to 2017 were included in the study and items listed in the HIV infection risk assessment tool for MSM was revised. Related data on questions and options involved in sentinel surveillance was collected and individual risk scores were calculated. We determined the predictive ability of this tool by comprehensive analyzing the HIV infection status and individual risk scores.Results:A total of 1 944 MSM were included in the study, with an average age of (35.04±13.28)years old. Most of them were recruited from the venues (55.7%) and 48.2% were never married. Among these MSM, HIV infection rate was 12.6%(245/1 944) with the median of risk score as 23.99, versus 20.36 from the HIV negative ones. Significant differences appeared on the risk scores between the target populations that with different HIV status (Mann-Whitney test, P=0.007). According to the principle of decision tree, MSM were divided into two groups according to risk scores: ≤18.66 and >18.66. It appeared that the risk scores were in parallel with the rates of HIV infection ( χ2=13.102, P<0.001). Results from the multivariate analysis showed that MSM with higher risk score were more likely to be infected with HIV (>18.66 vs. ≤18.66: a OR=1.72, 95% CI: 1.27-2.32, P<0.001). Area under the ROC curve (AUC) for HIV infection was 0.553 (95% CI: 0.516-0.590, P=0.007). At the point of risk score 19.01, Youden’s index appeared the maximum, with sensitivity as 0.69 and specificity as 0.43, of this tool. Conclusions:The HIV infection risk assessment tool for MSM developed based on Delphi method can predict the risk of HIV infection in MSM to some extent. MSM with higher risk score seemed likely to be infected with HIV. Items of this tool need to be adjusted for the verification of the tool through cohort studies in the near future.

Objective:To investigate the study on the diagnostic value of multimodal ultrasound technique for the lesion of extensor carpi ulnaris(ECU)tendon in patients with rheumatoid arthritis(RA).Methods:A total of 175 RA patients who were confirmed by the department of rheumatology of Yantaishan Hospital of Yantai city from December 2021 to January 2023 were selected,and them were included into the RA group.Other 50 patients without RA but with clinical symptoms of wrist were included into the non-RA group,and 50 healthy volunteers were included into the healthy control group.All subjects underwent routine ultrasound and shear wave elastography(SWE)examination on wrist,and then,the characteristics of ultrasound images of wrists and the blood flow distribution of ECU power Doppler ultrasonography(PDUS)were recorded.SWE was used to measure ECU to obtain elastic modulus index(EI)and velocity modulus index(VI).The differences between three groups were compared,and the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)value of RA patients were drawn,so as to confirm the area under curve(AUC)value and optimize cutoff value.Results:There were significant differences in EI and VI of the ECU tendon among three groups(F=61.15,61.28,P<0.05),respectively.The optimal cut-off values of EI and VI were respectively 319.35 kPa and 10.55 m/s in RA patients.In RA patients,age and disease course had significant influences on EI(r=0.19,0.21,P<0.05),and age,disease course,ultrasound score of wrist joint,and grade of power Doppler ultrasonography PDUS of the ECU tendon(ECUPDUS)had significant influences on VI(r=0.19,0.15,-0.16,-0.17,P<0.05).Conclusion:SWE is able to quantitatively and non-invasively assess the stiffness information of the ECU tendon in RA patients.After the supplement of gray-scale ultrasound and PDUS,multimodal ultrasound technique can clearly judge the correlation of the lesions of ECU tendon of RA patients.
