Bone marrow from 20 patients suffering from aplastic anemia were cultured with fetal muscle condition medium and in three different combinations: (1) Marrow from the patients cultured alone; (2) Coculture of marrow from patient with normal marrow; and (3) Culture of normal marrow with serum from patient. It was found that: (1) Nine patients had low colony formation when culture alone; no suppression in coculture and no inhibiter factor was found in serum from patient. Stem cells might be absent or defective in these patients. (2) Five patients had low colony when cultured alone; their marrow showed marked inhibitory effect on normal marrow CFU-C in coculture. and the latter was decreased by 40-100%. Suppressor cells might have caused the aplasia in these patients. (3) The sera from five patients suppressed CFU-C of normal marrow cells, colony counts being decreased by 55-77%. The cause of aplasia in these patients might be the presence of an humoral inhibiting factor. (4) In one patient no abnormal findings were found in all three different combinations of cultures. This patient might be suffering from a defective hematopoietic environment.

Aromatic antiepileptic drugs such as carbamazepine are the first-line treatment for epilepsy. The adverse reactions have greatly limited their clinical application. The occurrence rate of severe skin adverse reactions such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is low,but they are often fatal.Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) gene polymorphisms are reported to be related with skin adverse reactions caused by aromatic antiepileptic drugs,but the exact mechanism is unclear.This article will perform a review about the correlation between skin adverse reactions caused by aromatic antiepileptic drugs and HLA gene polymorphisms published in recent years,in order to provide theoretical basis for further study of HLA susceptibility genes in Chinese Han population,and provide a reference for achieving individualized treatment of epilepsy.

Objective To investigate the effect of different radiation doses on the accuracy of iodine quantification and CT value of virtual monochromatic image with a muti-spectral CT iodine phantom using second-generation dual-layer detector spectral CT(DLCT).Methods The second-generation DLCT scan abdominal phantom was used,which consisted of six different concentrations of iodine rods at 4,8 and 12 g/L.The scan parameters were set at 100,120 and 140 kVp tube voltages,and six radiation exposure sequences were scanned at each tube voltage:5,10,15,20,25 and 30 mGy.Measure the iodine concentration value and the CT value at the single level of 50,70 and 100 keV,and calculate the absolute error value of iodine concentration and CT value under different radiation exposure.SPSS 22.0 software single factor analysis of variance was used to compare the difference between the io-dine concentration and the absolute error of CT value under different Radiation exposure,and LSD method was used to compare the two groups.Results The absolute error of CT value of 4 g/L iodine rod with 10～30 mGy scanning at 100 keV energy level was significantly higher than that of 12 g/L and 8 g/L(P＜0.05),and the absolute error of iodine concentration measurement of other iodine rods with different concentrations at different Radiation exposure had no statistical difference.Conclusions The second-generation double-layer detector spectral CT has high meas-urement stability for iodine concentration quantification and CT value accuracy under conditions of radiation dose greater than 5 mGy.

Biological tests of medical devices is an important part to evaluate its biological safety. Good quality management of the test is a powerful guarantee to ensure the authenticity, integrity and reliability of the test results. This paper is based on the biological tests of medical devices, compares GLP and ISO/IEC 17025 which is widely used in China medical device testing institutions, describes the implementation of the GLP reference points to strengthen the quality management of biological tests of medical devices under the ISO/IEC 17025 system, to provide reference for quality management of medical device testing institutions.
