Objective To study the clinical significance of a novel marker of platelet clumps count provided by hematology analyzer in differentiating true thrombocytopenia from EDTA-dependent pseudothrombocytopenia (EDTA-PTCP). Methods Samples from 65 cases of thrombocytopenia (including 15 EDTA-PCTP samples and 50 random samples of true thrombocytopenia) and 50 healthy controls were analyzed using hematology analyzers, and samples with low platelet counts were checked by replacing citric acid and using manual microscope observation to identify true thrombocytopenia from EDTA-PTCP. A novel marker of platelet clumps count was used to differentiate the two diseases for samples anficoagulated with EDTA or citric acid. Results In 65 patients with thrombocytopenia, platelet counts were (48±11)×109/L detected by automatic hematology analyzers. Fifty of 65 cases were true thrombocytopenia which showed low platelet counts [(48±10)×109/L by automated analyzer and (46±11)×109/L by manual assay]. No significance was observed between them (t=-1.26, P0.05). Platelet clumps counts were 86±15. No platelet clamps were detected under microscope. The other 15 cases were EDTA-PTCP [platelet counts were (48±12)×109/L and platelet clumps counts (840±184) were increased significantly by automated analyzer and using EDTA anticoagulant] which showed obviously platelet clumps and no less platelet counts under microscope. After replacing citric acid, platelet counts [(141±13)×109/L by automated analyzer and (134±17)×109/L by manual microscope assay] were increased significantly. No significance was observed between them (t=-1.29, P0.05). Platelet clumps counts (75±12) were decreased obviously compared with EDTA anticoagulant method (t=-6.82, P<0.001). No platelet clumps were detected under microscope. Conclusion Platelet clumps counts may be a useful clinical indicator for monitoring of platelet aggregates, especially for EDTA-PTCP caused by platelet clumping.

International Journal of Surgery 2009;36(11):739-741
Objective To explore the benefits of living donor kidney transplantation in child, and to inves-tigate the procedures of renal transplantation, post-operative immunosuppressants regimens and complication management in child. Methods Clinical data, the prognosis of renal transplantation, operative procedure and immunosuppressive agents administrated in 14 children with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) undergo-ing renal transplantation were analyzed. Results The major complications in the early stage after renal transplantation were: 2 cases had acute rejection, 3 cases had severe hypernatremia, 1 case had urological infection, 3 cases had lymphocele. The major complications in the long-term recipients included: 6 cases had hypertension, 3 cases had hyperlipidemia, 4 cases had various kinds of infections, 5 cases had drug-in-duced hepatic injury. The one year survival rates of recipient/graft were all 100%. The average creatinine was 96.43 mmol/L(43-125 mmol/L) for the 14 recipients by the end of this study. All recipients thought their life quality was improved significantly. Conclusions Living donor kidney transplantation is the most ideal method to treat children with ESRD. Adult donor kidneys are suitable to the school age of recipients. The protocol of immunosuppressive therapy (prednisone plus MMF and FKS06) should be applied.

Objective To observe and evaluate the expression and significance of Nogo-66 receptor (NgR) mRNA in adult rats′ optic nerve. Methods Optic and sciatic nerves of 8 adult rats were used to make the sections, which were divided into 3 groups: optic-nerve experimental group, sciatic-nerve control group, and optic-nerve negative control group. In situ hybridization was used to observe the expression of NgR mRNA in optic nerve and sciatic nerve. Results The expression of NgR mRNA in the 8 rats was positive in optic nerve and negative in sciatic nerve. The positive signals were arranged along the long axis of optic nerve. Conclusion The expression of NgR mRNA is positive in optic nerve while negative in sciatic nerve in adult rats, which suggests that the positive expression and distribution of NgR may be related to the poor regenerate ability of optic nerves.

ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility and influence factors of a new silver salt method for determination of arsenic in drinking water. Methods Arsenic was determined at different reaction temperature,acidity, specification and addition of zinc granular, fill weight of lead acetate cotton, and the effect of these factors on assay results was observed. Arsenic in drinking water was determined in accordance with standard test methods (GB/T 5750.6) of the new silver method. Results The recoveries of the arsenic were 75.3% - 93.6%(F =9.21,P < 0.01 ) with reaction temperature at 10 - 30 ℃, and the best reaction temperature was 25 ℃. The recoveries of the arsenic ranged from 80.3% - 91.6%(F =4.67, P< 0.05) when sulfuric acid was 3.0 - 6.0 ml and the best value was 5.0 ml. The recoveries of the honeycomb structural zinc granular(diameter 0.2 - 0.3, 0.3 - 0.4 mm) and button zinc granular were 87.2%, 90.7% and 83.0%, respectively; the best specification was 0.3 - 0.4 mm. The recoveries of zinc granular weight(3 - 5 g ) were 74.6% - 91.7%, respectively; the best was 5 g. The recoveries ranged from 79.6% - 91.3% with fill weight of lead acetate cotton at 25 - 100 mg, the best fill weight was 50 mg.The recoveries of the arsenic were 90.7%, 92.5%, 81.5% and 74.2% with lead acetate cotton length at 0.5 - 2.0 cm,and the best loose-tight degree was 1.0 cm. The stability time of arsine solution was 5.0, 4.0, 2.5 h with corresponding temperature at 20, 25, 30 ℃, respectively. ConclusionsIn order to ensure precision and accuracy of the measurement, it is necessary to control reaction temperature, acidity, specification and addition of zinc granular free from arsenic, fill weight of lead acetate cotton and loose-tight degree in the reaction system.

Objective To investigate the relationship of TCM constitution and syndrome elements based on patients with hyperhomocysteinemia. Methods A survey was conducted among 1316 patients with diabetes, coronary disease, hypertension and cerebral infarction. Totally 326 patients with hyperhomocysteinemia were incorporated in diagnostic data and their constitutions were determined. At the same time, syndrome elements identification method for syndrome elements was applied for judgment, and consistency of the constitution and syndrome elements was analyzed. Results The survey showed that prevalence rate of population with hyperhomocysteinemia was 24.77%;there were 6 cases with mild nature, and 320 cases with biased constitution;phlegm dampness, blood stasis, qi deficiency of constitutions 110 cases, 73 cases and 59 cases, respectively;blood stasis, phlegm, qi deficiency, and dampness were the main syndrome elements of hyperhomocysteinemia, of 100 cases, 98 cases, 73 cases and 59 cases, respectively;the consistency of phlegm dampness constitution and syndromes of phlegm was the most obvious (Kappa=0.89, P<0.05). Conclusion Phlegm dampness, blood stasis, and qi deficiency were the most common constitutions of hyperhomocysteinemia;blood stasis, phlegm, qi deficiency and dampness were the main syndrome elements of hyperhomocysteinemia patients. The two results were consistent, and the consistency of phlegm syndrome and phlegm dampness constitution was the most obvious.

Objective To evaluate imaging findings and treatment experience in central venous stenosis without a history of previous catheterization in hemodialysis patients. Methods Clinical data of 5 haemodialysis cases of central vein stenosis without a previous catheterization history in our hospital from July 2006 to July 2008 were analyzed retrospectively. Results Patients were three women and two men aged 43 to 65 years with mean age(53±8)years and all had arm swelling as the main complaint.The vascular accesses were located at the wrist in all the patients.The mean duration of the vascular accesses from the time of creation was(33.6±35.4)months.Venography showed occlusion in 2 cases and stenosis in 3 cages of central vein including 1 case of stenosis in brachiocephalic vein.1 case of stenosis beth in branchiocephalic vein and subclavian vein,1 case of stenosis in two segments of subclavian vein.The stenosis of branchiocephalic vein was fixed anterior to the tracheal and CT showed the compression of the vein by the aorta.Symptoms were resolved by the treatment of PTA.subclavian vein-contralateral subclavian vein bypass and ligation of the access. Conclusions Central venous stenosis in haemodialysis patients without a history of catheterization may be due to the intimal hyperplasia of the compression site or valve which is accelerated by the high flow of vascular access.Venography is the first choice for the diagnosis and the current management of central venous stenosis is far from being effective for the long term.
