Objective:Through the establishment and application of the biosafety autopsy pathology platform in Huoshenshan Hospital, the feasibility and application effect of the biosafety autopsy pathology platform were analyzed.Methods:The feasibility and application effect of the biosafety autopsy pathology platform were analyzed by layout design, instruments and equipment preparation, testing methods examination, and effect evaluation.Results:A total number of 26 cases of systematic autopsy and 8 cases of minimally invasive autopsy (puncture) were performed on the biosafety autopsy pathology platform, and no one was infected. Some pathology original findings were identified, including COVID-19 and pathological characteristics of identification, SARS respiratory failure mechanism and treatment significance, systemic distribution and spreading mechanism of the new coronavirus, the " storm" of inflammation pathological basis, some tumor markers rise in pulmonary pathological cell source and the overcast with fibrosis characteristics, such findings play important roles in the clinical diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19.Conclusions:The study of autopsy pathology is of great significance for the prevention and control of emerging infectious disease, which calls for early intervention. To promote the standard construction of biosafety autopsy platform is the key to the pathological study of emerging infectious diseases. Pathological research and clinical diagnosis and treatment should be combined to inform each other.

Objective To study the relationship of the tibial plateau subchondral trabecular bone (STB) microstructure and the cartilage degeneration with the lower limb alignment based on individual trabecula segmentation (ITS) and histology analysis in knee osteoarthritis (OA). Methods Hip-knee-ankle (HKA) angles were measured on the full-length lower extremity films of patients before total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The tibial plateau excised from the TKA were collected for micro-CT scanning and ITS analysis. The cartilage degeneration was evaluated by histology. The relationship between the HKA angle and the changes in microstructural parameters of STB and cartilage degeneration were analyzed. ResultsThe plate, rod and axial bone trabecular volume fraction (BV/TV, pBV/TV, pBV/TV), ratio of trabecular plate versus rod (P/R), plate trabecular number density (pTb.N), plate trabecular thickness (pTb.Th), trabecular plate surface area (pTb.S), trabecular rod length (rTb.L), and plate-plate and plate-rod junction density (P-P Junc.D, P-R Junc.D) of the subchondral bone of the tibial plateau were significantly related to the cartilage degeneration OARSI score and the HKA angle. The greater the deviation of the lower limb alignment, the greater the number of subchondral trabeculae, the thicker the trabeculae, the greater the bone mass, the stronger the connectivity, especially the plate trabeculae on the affected side of tibial plateau, and the higher the OARSI score of cartilage degeneration. Conclusions Abnormal lower limb alignment may cause abnormal microstructure of the plate and rod STB of the tibial plateau by changing the stress distribution of the knee, especially the significant increase and thickening of the plate trabecular and axial trabecular bone, which may be an important risk factor that further aggravates the degeneration of articular cartilage and the progress of OA. Therefore, lower limb alignment correction with surgical intervention and improving STB with bone metabolism agents may efficiently contribute to preventing cartilage damage and mitigate OA progression.

A multiplex PCR method was developed to detect the main pathogens of Qinghai Tibetan sheep endometritis. First, the genomes of five standard bacterial strains were extracted and specific primers were selected; the multiplex PCR method was established by using the genome of the standard strain as a template. The samples were collected by sterile cotton swab from Tibetan sheep uterus, and then placed in LB medium and numbered. After 48 h, the genomes of cultured bacteria were extracted and detected by single PCR method, then the positive samples were recorded. The positive samples detected by single PCR were selected for multiplex PCR detection and recorded again. The coincidence rate between these two methods was calculated to measure the accuracy of multiplex PCR. In order to identify the species of the pathogen, 30 positive samples verified by single and multiplex PCR were randomly selected for bacterial isolation and identification. In the 600 samples, the infected ratio of Streptococcus agalactiae (GBS) was 47.33%, Escherichia coli 34.83%, Staphylococcus aureus 6.5%, Salmonella and Trueperella pyogenes were negatively detected. Among the positive samples detected by multiplex PCR, the positive ratio of GBS was 45.50%, E. coli 33.50%, S. aureus 6.5%. Comparison of two detection results, Multiplex PCR detection coincidence rate is more than 95%. The isolated pathogens were identified as E. coli, GBS and S. aureus, which was consistent with the results of two methods. The multiplex PCR method was successfully established and the main pathogens of endometritis in Qinghai Tibetan sheep were GBS, E. coli and S. aureus.
