The loci of cDNA sequences for valid diagnosis have been identified through the selection of the genome of SARS coronaries. The gene chips for diagnosing such virus have been developed, based on our own-developed technology for manufacturing and application of gene chips. The diagnoses given by such gene chips were consistent well with the reports of clinical laboratories (94.29%) and the sensitivity reached 10(-2)/ml virus molecules. This method is well suited for the clinical use in SARS coronaries diagnosis.

Objective:To explore the relationship between fragmented QRS complex and heart rate variability (HRV) and ventricular arrhythmia in patients with old myocardial infarction.Methods:From August 2018 to October 2019, 200 patients with old myocardial infarction were first treated in the Department of cardiac function examination of the First Affiliated Hospital of Hebei North University. The patients were divided into 99 cases of old myocardial infarction with fragmented QRS wave group and 101 cases of old myocardial infarction without fragmented QRS wave group according to the case bank data and conventional 12 lead ECG diagnosis in our hospital for the first time. Then, the 24-h ambulatory ECG reexamined within 1 year after discharge was retrospectively analyzed. The incidence of ventricular arrhythmia was compared between the two groups by χ 2 test. The difference of heart rate variability between the two groups was compared by rank sum test. Multiple logistic regression was used to analyze the value of different indexes of heart rate variability in the evaluation of fragmented QRS complex in old myocardial infarction. Drawing the receiver operating characteristic (ROC), and the area under the curve (AUC) was used to analyze the diagnostic accuracy of different indexes of heart rate variability in the broken QRS complex of old myocardial infarction. Results:According to the Lown classification of ventricular premature contraction, the number of positive ventricular arrhythmias in patients with Grade Ⅰ of ventricular premature contraction and Grade Ⅲ-Ⅴ of ventricular premature contraction in the old myocardial infarction fragmented QRS group was higher than that in the old myocardial infarction non fragmented QRS group (Grade Ⅰ of ventricular premature contraction: 54.5% (54/99)and 39.6%(40/101); χ 2=4.484, P<0.05;Grade Ⅲ-Ⅴ of ventricular premature contraction: 34.3% (34/99) and 9.9%(10/101); χ 2=17.406, P<0.05)). Ventricular premature contraction Grade 0 old myocardial infarction fragmented QRS group was lower than old myocardial infarction non fragmented QRS group (8.1% (8/99) and 48.5% (49/101); χ 2=37.995, P<0.05). The total number of positive cases of ventricular arrhythmia in the old myocardial infarction group with fragmented QRS wave was higher than that in the old myocardial infarction group without fragmented QRS wave (91.9% (91/99) and 51.5%(52/101); χ 2=57.146, P<0.05)). There was no significant difference in the number of positive ventricular arrhythmias between the old myocardial infarction fragmentation QRS group and the old myocardial infarction non fragmentation QRS group ( P>0.05). The standard deviation of NN intervals (SDNN) and the standard deviation of average NN intervals (SDANN) of HRV time domain indexes in the old myocardial infarction fragmented QRS group were higher than those in the old myocardial infarction non fragmented QRS Group (SDNN:143.00(122.00,166.00) vs. 110.00(95.00,130.50), Z=5.780, P<0.05; SDANN:112.00(100.00,136.00) vs. 96.00(76.00,118.50), Z=4.013, P<0.05). Multiple Logistics regression analysis results of HRV domain shows that HRV time domain SDNN and SDANN have diagnositic value in diagnosis fQRS after OMI(SDNN: OR=0.949, 95% CI:0.922-0.977, P<0.001; SDANN: OR=1.036, 95% CI:1.005-1.068, P=0.022). Area under ROC curve of HRV time domain SDNN and SDANN have particular diagnositic accuracy in diagnosis fQRS after OMI(SDNN: AUC 0.737, 95% CI 0.666-0.807, Sensitivity 0.818, Specificity 0.634; SDANN: AUC 0.664, 95% CI 0.587-0.741, Sensitivity 0.737, Specificity 0.673. 0.5

ObjectiveThe potential suitable area for ecological planting， key ecological factors， and suitable range of Polygonatum odoratum in China were analyzed to provide theoretical and scientific guidance for the artificial planting of P. odoratum. MethodA total of 454 geographical distribution records of P. odoratum in China and 118 ecological factors were used in this study. The maximum entropy model （MaxEnt） was adopted to predict the suitable areas of P. odoratum. The key ecological factors and their suitable ranges were analyzed by the jackknife method， contribution rates of ecological factors， and response curves. ResultThe suitable areas of P. odoratum were mainly located in the northwest， north， and northeast of China， the highly suitable areas of which were concentrated in Shaanxi， Shanxi， Gansu， etc. Solar radiation in November （Srad11）， precipitation in July （Prec7）， percentage of evergreen/deciduous needleleaf trees （Class1）， silt content （2-50 μm） mass fraction （SLTPPT）， and annual average temperature （Bio1） were found to be the key ecological factors affecting the suitable distribution of P. odoratum in China. The cumulative contribution rate of solar radiation factors （31.29%）>vegetation factors （25.61%）>soil factors （19.52%）>precipitation factors （11.38%）>temperature factors （8.57%）>topography factors （3.63%）. ConclusionIt is suggested to carry out ecological planting of P. odoratum mainly in Shaanxi （such as Baoji and Ankang Cities and Ningshan， Liuba， and Hua Counties）， Gansu （such as Tianshui City， Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture， and Liangdang and Huating Counties）， and Shanxi （such as Yangquan， Taiyuan， Fenyang， and Jinzhong Cities， as well as Xingxian County） of China. Solar radiation factors should be given priority in the planting process， followed by vegetation， soil， precipitation， temperature， and topography factors. The range of key ecological factors， namely Srad11， Prec7， Class1， SLTPPT， and Bio1 should be controlled within 8 095.21-10 334.98 （optimum 8 787.50） kJ·m^-2·d^-1， 109.99-223.60 （146.91） mm， 1.00%-9.45% （6.76%-10.68%）， 41.73%-50.35% （46.53%）， and 3.29-16.33 （13.57） °C， respectively.

【Objective】 To investigate the effect of leukocyte-depleted suspended red blood cells (lds-RBCs) storaged for different time on blood transfusion effect of patients with hematologic diseases and malignant tumors, as well as to evaluate the storage quality of lds-RBCs in blood stations. 【Methods】 Seven hospitals (4 tertiary-A hospitals and 3 secondary-A hospitals), applying for blood from our blood center, were selected. Blood transfusion cases (medical record) and related data (indicators) of patients with blood diseases and malignant tumors in those hospitals from December 2018 to May 2019 were collected, including disease diagnosis (type) before transfusion, demographic characteristics, date of solo transfusion of lds-RBCs, units of lds-RBCs [(1~2)U/bag, 1 U=200 mL whole blood], different storage duration (1~5 weeks) (bar code), and hemoglobin (Hb) 48 h before and after transfusion. The efficacy of lds-RBCs (storaged for different time) transfusion in patients with hematologic diseases and malignant tumors was evaluated by statistical analysis. 【Results】 A total of 3 557 patients with hematologic diseases and malignant tumors were enrolled in this study. No significant changes were noticed in transfusion efficacy by blood transfusion unit, gender and previous transfusion history (P > 0.05). The effective rate of lds-RBCs in patients with blood diseases and malignant tumors, stratified by storage duration, i. e. storaged for >1~2 weeks, >2~3 weeks, >3~4 weeks and more than >4~5 weeks, was 78.77% vs 77.68% vs 75.06% vs 70.37%, and 79.32% vs 76.73% vs 72.79% vs 67.65%, respectively(P<0.05), with lds-RBCs of 4-5 storage weeks presenting the lowest transfusion efficacy in both groups of patients. 【Conclusion】 The storage time of most lds-RBCs supplied by our center is moren than 3 weeks, and the transfusion effect of lds-RBCs stored for 5 weeks needs further observation. In order to ensure and improve the efficacy of blood transfusion, evidence-based medicine and information management are needed to help the clinical gasp the advantageous time of blood products and shorten the storage-to-transfusion time of red blood cells.
