【Objective】 To investigate the knowledge acquisition status for blood transfusion of transfusion related medical staff in underdeveloped cities in western China and explore its influencing factors. 【Methods】 A questionnaire consisted of blood transfusion laws and regulations, clinical blood transfusion theory and blood transfusion technology was designed, randomly distributed to medical staff and blood transfusion departmenttechnicians of 17 secondary/tertiary hospitals in Wuwei and then collected on the spot. The knowledge acquisition of blood transfusion of each group was compared using statistical description method, and its influencing factors were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression analysis. 【Results】 A total of 507 questionnaires were issued, and 498 valid questionnaires (98.22%) were collected. The scores of transfusion related laws and regulations, blood transfusion theory and blood transfusion technology of doctor group(n=158), nurse group(n=239) and transfusion technician group(n=101)were 4.56-5.97(5.06±0.73)(P<0.01) vs 4.23-5.87(4.98±1.24)(P<0.01) vs 3.71-0.78 (4.15±1.34), 3.67-5.02(4.27±1.02) vs 3.76-5.12(4.06±0.75) vs 4.71-5.98(5.16±0.64)(P<0.01) and 3.41-5.76(3.82±0.56) vs 3.78-5.24(4.01±0.56) vs 3.77-5.46(3.82±0.59). Among the seven departments, blood transfusion department(n=51) won the highest score of above three types of knowledge [4.91-5.97(5.28±0.43) vs 5.03-5.92(5.36±0.59) vs 4.39-5.77(4.97±0.79)(P<0.01) ]. Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, occupation, professional titles, training times and hospital grade had an impact on the degree (score) of blood transfusion knowledge acquisition (P<0.05), and multivariate unconditional logistic regression analysis indicated that training times was an important influencing factor(P<0.01). 【Conclusion】 This survey revealed that the level of knowledge acquisition for blood transfusion among medical staff in Wuwei is generally low, and there is a significant difference between staff from hospitals of different grade and different departments. It is urgent to strengthen the training of blood transfusion for medical staff in western China.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the therapeutic effect of multiple small diameter drilling combined with extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) under C-arm X-raylocalization in patients with early osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH). METHODS: A total of 106 cases of early ONFH patients admitted from May 2015 to May 2017 were retrospectively selected as the study subjects. According to different treatment methods, the patients were divided into observation group and control group, 53 cases in each group. The observation group was treated with multiple small-diameter drilling combined with ESWT under C-arm positioning in the observation group, including 41 males and 12 females with an age of (45.85±6.01) years old (22 to 70 years old);and the control group was treated with ESWT, including 34 males and 19 females with an age of (45.12±5.83) years old(20 to 68 years old) in the control group. The modified Harris hip scores(mHHS), visual analog scale(VAS), hip flexion range, hip abduction and adduction range, ONFH area ratio and clinical efficacy were compared between twe groups before and after treatment. Kaplan-Meier method was used to draw a survival curve to compare the femoral head survival rate between two groups during the 3-year follow-up period after treatment. RESULTS: There were no complications such as poor wound healing and infection. All of 106 patients were followed up for 28 to 36 months with an average of (31.06±4.28) months. MHHS score, hip flexion range and hip abduction and adduction range in the observation group were increased from (63.85±5.42) scores, (23.79±2.21) °, (32.40±4.19) ° before treatment to (85.51±5.69) scores, (34.65±2.73)°, (43.32±5.71)° at 2 years after treatment, respectively(P<0.05). The above indicators in the control group increased from (64.73±5.64)°, (23.82±2.18)°, (32.45±4.13)° before treatment to (81.65±5.48) scores, (32.79±2.87)°, (39.75±5.68)°at two years after treatment, respectively(P<0.05). VAS score and ONFH area ratio in the observation group decreased from (5.76±1.41) scores and (35.07±4.96)% before treatment to (3.39±1.02) scores and (22.04±3.23)% at 2 years after treatment, respectively(P<0.05). The above indicatiors in control group decreased from (5.73±1.45) scores and (35.24±5.18)% before treatment to (4.43±1.21) scores and (28.32±3.76)% at 2 years after treatment, respectively(P<0.05), and the improvement in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group(P<0.05). At 3 years after treatment, the femoral head survival rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). CONCLUSION Multiple small diameter drilling combined with ESWT under C-arm positioning can significantly improve the clinical symptoms of patients with early ONFH, relieve pain and improve clinical efficacy.

OBJECTIVE: To detect the level of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in bone marrow of patients with non-M3 acute leukemia (AL), and estimate its relationship with prognosis. METHODS: From January 2016 to December 2019, 114 patients with AL in department of Hematology, Wuwei People's Hospital were selected as study group, and 25 healthy volunteers were enrolled as control group. The concentration of VEGF in bone marrow was detected by ELISA. The patients were divided into high and low concentration group according to the level of VEGF. The overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) were compared among different groups. RESULTS: The level of VEGF in patients with AL was significantly higher than that in the control group. The median OS and EFS in the low concentration group was 34.5 and 32 months, respectively, while, in the high concentration group was 30 and 26 months, respectively. The differences between the two groups were statistically significant (P=0.010). There were significant differences in OS rate (P=0.035) and EFS rate (P=0.026) between low and high concentration group. Multivariate analysis showed that high VEGF concentration was an independent risk factor affecting OS (HR=2.619, 95%CI 1.070-6.406, P=0.035) and EFS (HR=2.221, 95%CI 1.074-4.552, P=0.031) in AL patients. CONCLUSION VEGF highly expresses in the bone marrow of patients with AL at initial diagnosis and relapse, and shows adverse effects on the prognosis.

Objective: To describe the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) patients with myeloid sarcoma (MS). Methods: The clinical data including the diagnosis and treatment of two patients with APL and MS were reported, and the related literature was reviewed. Results: Case 1 was an APL patient with MS as the initial symptom. The puncture biopsy and immunohistochemistry for a right chest wall mass showed it was in accordance with MS. The system treatment with all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), arsenic trioxide (ATO) and idarubicin was given to this patient. After one cycle of chemotherapy, the mass on the right chest wall disappeared, and the bone marrow examination showed the complete remission. Then this patient maintained treatment until May 2018. Case 2 was diagnosed as extramedullary recurrence of APL with MS 25-years later. The puncture biopsy and immunohistochemistry for a parasternal mass showed it was in accordance with MS. After one cycle of chemothrapy with ATRA, idarubicin and cytarabine, the parasternal mass remarkably decreased. However, this patient stopped using ATRA after discharging from hospital, then died on 3 April 2017, which were known by phone call following-up. Conclusion: The incidence of APL with MS is low, but the degree of malignancy is high. ATRA and ATO combined chemotherapy is effective, but the overall prognosis is poor.

OBJECTIVE: To compare clinical effects of the improved interface screw fixation of femoral end of anterior cruciate ligament with classic femoral lateral loop plate fixation. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of 65 patients who underwent arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction from January 2019 to September 2021 were performed. According to the different fixation methods of the femoral side, 35 patients were divided into loop plate fixation(loop plate group), including 27 males and 8 females, aged from 18 to 50 years old with an average of (35.00±7.60) years old;30 patients in interface screw fixation(interface screw group), including 20 males and 10 females, aged from 18 to 50 years old with an average of (32.00±8.50) years old. Hospital stay, hospital expenses, operation time, complications, C-reactive protein at 1, 3, 6 days after operation, and postoperative Lysholm score and International Knee Documentation Committee(IKDC) score at 18 months were compared between two groups. RESULTS: All patients were successfully operated, and obtained follow-up from 18 to 36 months with an average of (25.16±4.50) months. Anterior drawer test and Lachman test of all patients turned to negative. There were no statistical differences in hospital stay, hospital expenses and complications between two groups(P>0.05);operation time in loop plate group was (74.00±6.84) min, and (91.67±6.34) min in interface screw group, and had difference between two groups(P<0.05). C-reactive protein on the 1st and 3rd day after operation was (40.00±10.10), (20.00±8.23) mg·L^-1 in loop plate group, and (60.00±8.93), (30.00±8.66) mg·L^-1 in interface nail group, had statistical difference between two groups (P<0.05);while there was no difference in C-reactive protein on the 6th day after operation(P>0.05). At 18 months after operation, Lysholm and IKDC scores showed no significant difference between two groups (P>0.05). In loop plate group, medullary enlargement on coronal and sagittal views were (2.75±0.19) mm, (1.55±0.25) mm, and (2.81±0.22) mm, (1.61±0.20) mm in interface screw group, and had statistical difference between two groups(P<0.05). CONCLUSION In the reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament, the common interface screw on the femoral side is changed to the sheath interface screw, and intramedullary screw is changed to the compression and fixation of tendon from outside to inside of joint. Although the operation procedure is relatively complicated and operation time is slightly longer, it has advantages of no residual metal foreign body after operation, and clinical effect is no different from classical loop plate suspension fixation, which is still a good choice.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the characteristics of air-conducted ocular vestibular-evoked myogenic potential (oVEMP) in healthy young people , so as to establish the normative data of young people. METHOD: Fifty-five healthy young subjects were recruited as study participants, 500 Hz air-conducted tone burst was used as stimulation. The threshold of oVEMP in each ear was examined. The latencies of P1 and N1, P1-N1 interval, peak-to-peak of P1-N1 amplitude and asymmetry ratio were measured. Effects of gender on oVEMPs were also exam- ined. RESULT: The typical complex wave of N1 and P1 was observed in all subjects. The threshold of oVEMP examination was(82.23 ± 12.92) dBHL, 95 dBHL air-conducted get the latencies of P1 and N1, P1-N1 interval,peak-to-peak P1-N1 amplitude in these healthy young people were(11.53 ± 0.80)ms, (16.61 ± 0.87)ms, (5.18 ± 11.04)ms, (5.96 ± 2.59)μv, respectively. The peak-to-peak P1-N1 amplitude of male was (6.49 ± 2.67) μv ,the female was (5.21 ± 2.34) μv, there were significant differences between male and female subjects in the wave amplitude (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Air-conduction induced oVEMP is a new method for vestibular function test. The amplitude of the oVEMP wave was different between male and female. Therefore it is necessary to establish the normal value according to genders.
