Objective To provide an optimal working process for crossmatching by full-automatic blood typing instrument.Methods Two workflows were applied to crossmatch test by full-automatic blood typing instrument.One was diluting red blood cells of donor samples to concentrate of 1%,the other was detecting directly the donor′s packed red blood cells.Compared consistency and processing time of the two different workflows.Results Cross match results of two workflows were consistent well(U=0,P>0.05).The average processing times before testing and undergoing testing were not significantly different(t=0.692,t=0.562,P>0.05),whereas the average processing times after testing and throughout testing were significantly different(t=146.485,t=67.053,P<0.05).Conclusion The workflow of diluting donor′s sample before testing saved processing time and better suits hospital having a large quantity of specimens.

Background The incidence of myopia is gradually increasing,and how to choose a better corrective method of myopia for the best visual demand is very important.Objective This study was to compare visual quality of implantable collamer lens (ICL) implantation with femtosecond laser in situ keratomileusis (FSLASIK) for moderate and high myopia using double-pass optical quality analysis system (OQAS).Methods A non-randomized controlled clinical trail was performed.Fifty-two eyes with-4.00 to-9.00 D of 26 consecutive patients were included in NO.1 Hospital of Xi'an from January 2015 to January 2016.Twenty-four eyes of 12 patients with the corneal thickness ＜500 μm received ICL implantation as ICL group and 28 eyes of 14 patients which corneal thickness was ≥500 μm underwent FS-LASIK surgery as FS-LASIK group.The demography was matched between the two groups (all at P＞0.05).All the patients were followed-up for 3 months after surgery.The preoperative best corrected distance visual acuity (BCDVA),spherical equivalent (SE),postoperative uncorrected distance visual acuity (UCDVA),BCDVA and SE were examined and compared between two groups.The parameters from OQAS were evaluated and intergrouply compared,including the objective scattering inders (OSI),modulation transfer function (MTF) cut off frequency,Strehl ratio and OQAS values under the contrast of 100％,20％ and 9％ (OV100,OV20,OV9).Results The postoperative BCDVA was not significantly different from preoperative UCDVA in both ICL group and FS-LASIK group (-0.04±t0.10 vs.0.05±0.12;-0.07±0.12 vs.0.00±0.12) (t=3.128,2.358,both at P＞0.05).No statistically significant differnces were found in SE,UCDVA and BCDVA after operation between ICL group and FS-LASIK group (t =1.292,0.900,-0.653,all at P＞0.05).OQAS examination showed that MTF cut off,OSI,Strehl ratio,OV100 were not significantly different after operation between ICL group and FS-LASIK group (t=-2.032,-1.440,-0.224,all at P＞0.05).The postoperative OV20 and OV9 were 0.82±0.14 and 0.80±0.21 in the ICL group,which were significantly higher than those in the FS-LASIK group(0.59±0.15 and 0.47±0.13) (t =4.105,4.702,both at P＜0.05).Conclusions Both ICL implantation and FS-LASIK provide good optical and visual quality for moderate to high myopic eyes,and ICL appears to have a better visual quality in comparison with FS-LASIK under the contrasts of 20％ and 9％.

OBJECTIVETo explore the impact and mechanism of electro-acupuncture (EA) on olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) transplantation of spinal cord injury (SCI) axonal regeneration.

METHODSIn the experiment, 72 adult Sprague Dawley male rats weighted (220±20) g underwent contusion and transection method to cause the T9 model of spinal cord injury, were randomly divided into four groups involving model group, EA group,OECs group,and EA+OECs group. 5% fluorescein gold (FG) solution of 0.5 µl was injected into rats' spinal cord at 4 weeks and 8 weeks after SCI, a series of tests were performed including fluorescein gold(FG) retrograde tagging, BBB scores.

RESULTS(1)The BBB scores level among four groups had no differences from the 1st day to the 1st week after the SCI (P>0.05). From the 3rd week after the SCI, the BBB scores level in EA+ OECs group were obviously higher than that of other groups (P<0.05). (2)The result of the fluorescein gold (FG) retrograde tagging showed at 4 weeks and 8 weeks after treatment FG positive nerve fibers were observed in SCI region. In EA+OECs group the number of FG positive nerve fibers was more than other three groups, and the fibers were more regularly arranged than other three groups.

CONCLUSIONThe combination of electro-acupuncture and OECs transplantation can recover the pathway of nerve conduction and promote nerve fibers regeneration and hind limb function recovery for SCI rat, and can guide the trend of the axonal regeneration.

Objective To explore the clinical characteristics and prognosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) patients with CCAAT/enhancer binding protein α (CEBPA) mutations.Methods 208 patients with de novo AML were retrospectively analyzed with regard to frequency of CEBPA mutations,clinical characteristics,therapeutic response and long-term outcome.Results CEBPA mutations were detected in 37 patients (17.8 ％),with 29 cases of double mutations and 8 cases of single mutation.In 117 cases of patients with normal karyotype,28 cases (23.9 ％) were detected with CEBPA mutations.As compared with no CEBPA mutation,the following characteristics were observed in patients with CEBPA double mutations.Presented with younger age at diagnosis,82.8 ％ (24/29) of the patients were M1 and M2.Presented with higher peripheral white blood cell count,higher hemoglob in and low platelet count.And increases of CD7,CD34 and HLA-DR expression.Compared with those without mutation,patients with biCEBPA mutations had better overall survival (OS) (2-years OS:100 ％ vs 75.1％,P =0.045).Conclusion BiCEBPA mutation is one of the favorable prognosis indicators.

Objective To explore and evaluate an extracorporal method for inducing magnetic capsule endoscopy into small intestine. Methods 40 patients receiving magnetic capsule endoscopy were randomly divided in two groups: the control group: doctors stopped manipulating capsule after the examination of stomach, and the capsule entered small intestine by the natural gastrointestinal motility; and the study group: after the examination of stomach, the patient lay on the right side, doctors moved the capsule to the pylorus, and then moved magnetic ball to induce capsule into small intestine. Gastric inspection time, gastric residence time, small intestine transit time and the completion rate were compared between the two groups. Results The average time for checking stomach was (32.50 ± 11.71) min in control group and (31.75 ± 9.12) min in study group respectively, and the difference was not significant (P > 0.05). After the observation of stomach, the gastric residence time in the control group was (40.60 ± 21.43) min, and the completion rate was 40%, while the average gastric residence time in the study group was (13.55 ± 9.62) min, and the completion rate was 75%. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Small intestine transit time was (329.25 ± 90.00) min in the control group and (342.00 ± 89.80) min in the study group, and the difference was not significant (P > 0.05). Conclusion By doctors moving magnetic ball and the patient lying on the right side after the observation of stomach, gastric residence time could be reduced and the completion rate could be elevated obviously.

Objective To investigate the preventive effects of curcumin for status epilepticus(SE) induced by lithium chloride-pilocarpine.Methods Totally 45 Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were randomly divided into three groups: preventive group(n=15),non-preventive group(n=15),and control group(n=15).The latency peroid and incidence of SE were recorded.The surviving neurons were stained by using nissl staining,and the programme death cells were detected by using terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling(TUNEL) in hippocampal CA3.Results The SE incidence of preventive group was 66.7%,which was significantly lower than that of non-preventive group(P0.05).Conclusion Pretreatment of curcumin can prevent the SE induced by lithium chloride-pilocarpine and the pretreatment can not protect the neuron.

Objective To discuss and analyze effect of biotype common handle (short handle) prosthesis in treating aged patients with femoral intertrochanteric fracture.Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out on 321 patients,among which 280 (102 males and 178 females,at age of 72-98years,average 82.5 years) obtained follow-up.According to a new fracture classification method (Piansui Classification),the typeⅠ a fracture was found in 65 cases and type Ⅰ b in 215.Most patients were combined with medical diseases,and after related medical collaborative treatment,standard biotype common handle prosthesis (artificial bipolar femoral head) replacement was applied to all patients.Early rehabilitation exercise was performed postoperatively.Results All the 321 patients lived through perioperative period successively,with no death in hospitalization.Meanwhile,postoperative complications were all cured in hospitalization.The patients could take out-of-bed activity at 1-3 weeks after operation.All 280 patients could take care of themselves at 12-46 months (average 28 months) of follow-up.According to Harris score,the results were excellent in 129 cases,good in 121,fair in 22 and poor in eight,with excellence rate of 89.3％.Conclusion Biotype common handle artificial femoral head replacement is an effective method to allow early ambulation,reduce complications and improve quality of life in treatment of intertrochanteric fractures in the elderly.

Objective To investigate the stress distribution in a cemented femoral component in elderly patients with a partial marrow type Ⅰ intertrochanteric fractures and to compare differences in the stress distribution after a long-and short-stem prosthetic replacement.Methods Spiral CT images of right femur of the volunteer were obtained and processed with Mimics software and modeling software to reconstruct a three-dimensional model of the femur.Based on this,a three-dimensional physical model for partial marrow type Ⅰ intertrochanteric fractures,long-and short-stem femoral prostheses,and cement mantle was established.Subsequently,a three-dimensional finite element model of long-and short-stem prosthetic replacement for intertrochanteric fractures was established using the finite element analysis software,and biomechanical analysis was implemented for the model.Results No significant changes in stress distribution of the femur occurred after long-or short-stem prosthetic replacement.Stress on the femur still presented a gradual increase from the proximal end to the distal end,peaked at the lower 1/3 of the medial and lateral junction and then decreased at the end.A stress concentration zone formed in the medial and lateral end of cement-stem interface in short-stem prosthetic replacement.Besides,the maximum value of stress in the lateral interface reached 15.3 MPa,but without surpassing the fatigue strength of the bone cement.Whereas,a stress concentration zone formed in the distal medial and lateral part of cement-stem interface and the medial middle part of the interface in long-stem prosthetic replacement and the maximum value was also lower than the fatigue strength of bone cement.No significant stress concentration zones were found in the femoral calcar reconstructed using bone cement.Conclusions Cemented long-or short-stem prosthetic replacement achieves no significant alteration in stress distribution of the femur.Loosening probability of the cemented long-or short-stem prosthesis is almost the same,but the latter has advantages of shorter surgery time,minor trauma,and fewer complications and may be more suitable for treatment of the elderly patients with a partial marrow type Ⅰ intertrochanteric fractures.
