Objective To explore the diagnosis value of morphology changes of pleomorphic megakaryocytes in the bone marrow (BM) smears and BM sections in chronic MPD(CML-CP, ET,PV and PMF). Methods BM aspiration was taken in 182 patients of MPD aspiration and biopsy examination was performed synchronously to obtain the BM smears and BM sections samples. The BM smears were subjected to Wright/Giemsa stain and immunohistochemistry stain, while the BM sections were subjected to Haematoxylin-Giemsa-Fuchsin stain. The morphology of pleomorphic megakaryocytes was classified into five groups, which were Ⅰ type ( inclusion type), Ⅱtype ( hypolobulated muclei type), Ⅲ type ( giant hyperlobulated nuclei type), IV type (micro pyknotic type), and V type(extrusion type). The size of megakaryocytes clusters was recorded as no clusters(0) , predominantly small clusters of fewer than 6 cells (1) or predominantly large clusters of at least 6 cells (2) . The detection rates of various types of pleomorphic megakaryocytes and megakaryocytes clusters were both analyzed in the BM smears and BM sections. Results In CML-CP group, the detection rates were (3. 73±3. 84)% , (14.19 ±7. 62)% ,(5.99 ±4.67)%, (34. 37 ±10.79)%, (9.45 ±6. 87)%, (32. 28 ±7. 67)% and 3.13 ±2. 30)% ,(12.61 ± 9.28)%,(4.94±4.27)%,(35.26±9.63)%,(9.47 ±5.89)%,(34.58 ±6.81)% for I tⅠype,Ⅱ type,Ⅲ type, Ⅳtype and Ⅴ type pleomorphic megakaryocyte in BM smears and BM sections. There were no significantly differences between the BM smears and BM sections(t value were 0.524,0.510,0.645, 0.239,0.011,0. 869,all P>0.05). In ET group, the detection rate of I type [ (6.17 ±2. 89)% ] in BM smears was significantly higher than that in BM sections [ 2.42 ± 1. 28) % ] (t = 7. 183, P < 0. 01) , while the detection rate of V type [ (6. 28 ± 3. 34) % ] in BM smears was significantly lower than that in BM sections [ (10. 18± 4.03) % ] (t = 3.940, P < 0.01). Besides these, the detection rates of other types were not significantly different between the BM smears and BM sections(t value were 0.079,0. 122,1.643, 1. 638,all P>0. 05). In PV group, the detection rate of V type in BM smears [ (6. 55 ±4. 11)% ] was significantly lower than that in BM sections [ (10. 30±3. 34) % ] (t = 2. 351, P < 0.05 ). However, the detection rates of the other types were not significantly different between the BM smears and BM sections (t value were 1. 635,0. 301,0. 132,0. 704,0. 681 ,all P' >0. 05). In PMF group, the detection rate of IV type in BM smears [(13.05 ±5.24)%] was significantly lower than that in BM sections [(29.14± 8. 72) % ] (t = 5. 245, P < 0. 01). And the detection rate of normal type in BM smears [ ( 33. 58 ± 14.39)% ] was significantly higher than that in BM sections [(23. 01±7.96)%] (t =2. 132,P<0. 05). Besides these, the detection rates of the other types were not significantly different between BM smears and BM sections( t value were 0. 787,0.646,2.062,0. 869, P > 0. 05 ) . In CML-CP and PV groups, the detection rates of size of clusters were not significantly different between the BM smears and BM sections (x~2 = 2. 772, P > 0. 05 ). In ET group, the detection rate of small clusters (1) in BM smears was obviously higher than that in BM sections, however, the detection rate of larger clusters (2) in BM smears was obviously lower than that in BM sections (x~2 = 13. 748, P < 0.01). In PMF group, the detection rate of no clusters(0) in BM smears was obviously higher than that in BM sections, however, the detection rate of large clusters(2) in BM smears was obviously lowers than that in BM sections (x~2 =18.741 ,P<0. 01). Conclusions Both BM smears and BM sections can be applied to observe pleomorphic megakaryocytes. The morphology changes of pleomorphic megakaryocytes have certain reference values for identification of MPD subtypes and differential diagnosis.

Objective To provide evidence for a more reasonable method of determining red bone marrow dose by analyzing and comparing existing simulation methods.Methods By utilizing Monte Carlo simulation software MCNPX,the absorbed doses of red hone marrow of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI)adult female voxel phantom were calculated throush 4 different methods:direct energy deposition.dose response function(DRF),King-Spiers factor method and mass-energy absorption coefficient (MEAC).The radiation sources were defined as infinite plate.sources with the energy ranging from 20 keV to 10 MeV.and 23 sources with different energies were simulated in total.The source was placed right next to the front of the RPI model to achieve a homogeneous anteroposterior radiation scenario.The results of different simulated photon energy sources through different methods were compared.Results When the photon energy was lower than 100 key,the direct energy deposition method gave the highest result while the MEAC and King-Spiers factor methods showed more reasonable results.When the photon energy was higher than 150 keV taking into account of the higher absorption ability of red bone marrow at highcr photon energy,the result of the King-Spiers factor method was larger than those of other methods.Conclusions The King-Spiers factor method might be the most reasonable method to estimate the red bone marrow dose from external radiation.

OBJECTIVETo assess the value of G-banded karyotyping in combination with multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) as a tool for the detection of chromosomal abnormalities in fetuses with congenital heart defects.
METHODSThe combined method was used to analyze 104 fetuses with heart malformations identified by ultrasonography. Abnormal findings were confirmed with chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA).
RESULTSNineteen (18%) fetuses were found to harbor chromosomal aberrations by G-banded karyotyping and MLPA. For 93 cases, CMA has detected abnormalities in 14 cases including 10 pathogenic copy number variations (CNVs) and 4 CNVs of uncertain significance (VOUS). MLPA was able to detect all of the pathogenic CNVs and 1 VOUS CNV.
CONCLUSIONCombined use of G-banded karyotyping and MLPA is a rapid, low-cost and effective method to detect chromosomal abnormalities in fetuses with various heart malformations.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effectiveness of using continuous veno venous hemofiltration (CVVH) in the treatment of acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP).
METHODSThirteen ANP patients were involved in this study, including 4 females and 9 males, averaging 50.6 +/- 10.8 years old. CT scans upon admission revealed 33% necrosis involving the body of the pancreas in 2 patients, 67% necrosis in 3 patients and 100% necrosis in the other 8; the CT severity score was 8.9 +/- 2.1. CVVH was maintained for at least 72 hours and the AN69 hemofilter (1.2 m(2)) was changed every 24 hours. The ultrafiltration rate during CVVH was 2993.9 +/- 983.0 ml/h, the blood flow rate was 250 - 300 ml/min, and the substitute fluid was infused in a pre-diluted manner. Low molecular weight heparin was used as anticoagulant.
RESULTSCVVH was well tolerated in all the patients. Bloody abdominal cavity drainage fluid was observed in 2 patients, but no other side-effects related with CVVH were observed. Two patients died of systemic fungal infections and another died of intracranial fungi infection, resulting in an ICU mortality of 23.1%. Ten of the patients survived in the ICU, but one of them died for other reasons unrelated to the SAP before discharge. The APACHE II score before CVVH was 15.2 +/- 6.5, but decreased significantly to 8.1 +/- 5.3, 7.5 +/- 4.9 and 8.0 +/- 5.2 at the 24th, 48th and 72nd hour after CVVH, respectively (P < 0.01). Serum concentration of IL-1beta and TNFalpha decreased to the trough at the 6th hour after a new hemofilter was used and increased slowly to pre-CVVH levels 12 hours later. After CVVH had ceased, the serum levels of two cytokines increased to their peaks at the 120th hour and decreased eventually at the 144th hour. The sieving coefficient (SC) of IL-1beta and TNFalpha was 0.33 +/- 0.11 and 0.16 +/- 0.08.
CONCLUSIONCVVH offered therapeutic options for ANP and was well tolerated resulting in clearance of IL-1beta and TNFalpha; CVVH at early stages of SAP may contribute to the improvement of outcome.
