Blood typing and compatibility testing directly affect curative effects of blood transfusion.To avoid severe blood transfusion reactions, more and more new immunohematology technologies and methods are becoming gradually applied to blood transfusion laboratories.Gel test, monocyte monolayer assay and analysis of blood group genes have been confirmed to be beneficial on improving the sensitivity and automatization.Some technologies can predict red cell survival in vivo more accurately.It can improve the efficacy of blood compatibility before transfusion by using these technologies.There is no general methods used in solving of complex serological problems, but medical staffs can provide appropriate blood for different sufferers by using different technologies at the right time.

Objective · To understand current smoking status and analyze its influencing factors among university students in Shanghai, and provide reference and guidance for further efforts of tobacco control in campus. Methods · A total of 4816 students from 19 col eges in Shanghai were selected by stratified multi-stage cluster sampling and the sample size in each part was decided by proportion of col eges and types of specialities. Self-administered questionnaire was conducted to understand the current tobacco use and its influencing factors were analyzed. Results · The overal smoking prevalence of col ege students in Shanghai was 5.80%. General y, smoking prevalence of junior col ege students was higher than that of undergraduates (11.27% vs 3.68%, P<0.05) and smoking prevalence of male students was higher than that of females (11.10% vs 0.95%, P<0.05). Nonsmokers endorsed higher awareness on the harm of smoking and second-hand smoking than smokers(P<0.01). Besides, nonsmokers had a more positive attitude towards tobacco control policy than smokers (P<0.01). Students who studied in the junior college, males, in the senior grade, majored in liberal arts, with higher monthly living expenses, held negative attitude in raising cigarette prices and supporting of establishing smoke-free campuses were more likely to be smokers. Conclusion · Tobacco use among university students in Shanghai deserves attention. It is necessary to carry out systematic and in-depth education to prevent and reduce smoking among the university students.

A mutation of intron 7, the point mutation in exon 9 was synonymous. Conclusion Two novel mutations of KEL gene are identified.

Objective To study Ax subgroup’s molecular characteristics in Chinese Han population. Methods Eight samples suspected as Ax subgroup were analyzed and duplex PCR RFLP test was used to determine the primary ABO genotypes. These samples were then analyzed by another PCR RFLP test to identify whether there was an nt646 “T” to “A” mutation within the exon 7 of ABO gene, which was a known mutation related to most Ax phenotypes. Samples with discrepancy between serological and gene typing were chosen for further T A cloning and sequence analysis. Results Four out of all tested samples had the known nt646 “T” to “A” mutation. An A *weak01 allele including nt407 and nt467 “C” to “T” mis sense mutation was detected in this study. Moreover, a novel Ax allele with a new single nucleotide C to T mutation was detected at nt745. Another 2 unrelated samples were suspected as AxB through serological test, both of which contained higher quantities of anti A and showed strong agglutination with anti H. And their initial genotypes were BO, and sequence analysis clarified that both had normal O gene and novel nt640 “A” to “G” mutation in their B alleles. Conclusion The novel Ax alleles, one kind of novel B(A) allele and one A *weak01 allele in Chinese Han individuals,have been detected. B(A) phenotypes should have their molecular biology bases as well as other ABO subgroups.

Objective To develop a polymerase chain reaction restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR RFLP) method using designed primers for determining the genotype of humen platelet antigens (HPA)5 system. Methods HPA 5 system of 25 healthy blood donors were genotyped using PCR RFLP method. The results obtained by PCR RFLP were compared with those determined by allele specific oligonucleotid hybridization (PCR ASO). Results The results of HPA 5 system obtained by PCR RFLP in 25 health donors were as follows: 24 of aa, 1 of ab and 0 of bb. All were in good agreement with those determined by PCR ASO. Conclusions Because PCR RFLP method is plain, fast and reliable for HPA 5 system genotyping, it is suitable for the diagnosis and therapy of neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia, posttransfusion purpura, platelet transfusion refractoriness and so on..

OBJECTIVE:To investigate ADR induced by dasatinib,and to provide reference for clinical rational drug use. METHODS:By means of literature metrology method,dasatinib-induced ADR cases domestically and internationally reported were analyzed. RSEULTS:A total of 63 ADR cases were induced by dasatinib,and the age of patients were mainly 41-60 years old. The most cases(25.4%)occurred within 1 month of medication. The patients mainly were from Asian countries and regions(53.9%). Organs/systems involved in dasatinib induced ADRs were mainly respiratory system(40.1%),digestive system(17.5%)and hema-tologic system(11.7%). Main clinical manifestations were pleural effusion(23 cases),pulmonary artery hypertension(15 cases), expiratory dyspnea(8 cases),diarrhea(8 cases),etc. CONCLUSIONS:Daring the use of dasatinib,great importance should be attached to ADR monitoring and prevention so as to avoid serious ADR.

Objective To demonstrate the value of eombined application of prenatal ultrasonography with fetal magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) in the diagnosis of monochorionic muhifetal realformations. Methods Fourteen cases of muhifetal malformations,detected by prenatal ultrasonography,received MRI within 48 h afterwards.All diagnosis were confirmed after delivery or mid-term termination.All imaging results of the 14 cases were retrospectively reviewed. Results Among the 14 cases,there were 7 acardias,5 Conjoined twins and 2 demise of multifetuses.Comparing ultrasound with MRI,we found that:(1)In cases with acardia and demise of multifetusea,ultrasound could diagnose correctly and be an important tool for follow-up,while MRI could demonstrate organs and structures of the acardiac recipient more clearly and detect the secondary changes of brain in the donor and survived fetus.(2)In Conjoined twins,ultrasound was superior to MRI in demonstrating the structure and function of cardiovascular system : and equivalent to MRI in identifying stomach,kidney,bladder and limbs;but inferior to MRI in identifying esophagus,lung,liver and intestinal,especially in the brain. And MRI could demonstrate two fetuses and the relationship between them in COnjoined twins simultaneously. Conclusions Prenatal ultrasonography and MRI have their own advantages and disadvantages in diagnosing monochorionic multifetal malformations.But the combination of prenatal ultrasonography and fetal MRI may be more valuable.

Objective To investigate the exposure and protection of recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) in the reoperation for thyroid diseases.Methods Clinical data of 214 cases undergoing thyroid reoperation were retrospectively analyzed.The patients with a short interval between the 2 thyroid operations or with external-infiltrated thyroid cancer were approached at the lateral strap muscles and the leading edge of the sternocleidomastoid.RLNs were exposed in the lateral region of superior mediastinum tracheoesophageal groove or at the point where RLN enters to throat.RLNs of patients with lymph node metastasis were exposed beside the enlarged lymph nodes.The patients with a long interval between the 2 thyroid operations and with benign tumor or tumor without external infiltration were exposed their thyroids at the anterior midline and then RLNs were exposed at the posterior lateral of the middle thyroid veins or at the inferior thyroid artery.Results Among the 214 cases,344 RLNs were anatomically exposed including 188 right and 156 left.84 cases had single exposure and 130 cases had bilateral exposure.44 RLNs were exposed at the point where RLN enters to throat,104 RLNs at the posterior lateral of the middle thyroid veins,40 RLNs at the inferior thyroid artery,124 RLNs at the lateral region of superior mediastinum tracheoesophageal groove,and 32 RLNs beside the enlarged lymph nodes.For the 2 cases suffering hoarse voice the day after they underwent thyroid operation in other hospital,suture ligation at the the entrance point was found when they received the reoperation in our hospital.Three of the total 344 RLNs (0.87％ ) had RLN branch injury in the entire group.Conclusion It is possible to reduce RLN injury during the reoperation for thyroid disease if surgeons are familiar with the dissection of RLN under normal or pathological condition,avoid adhesive or scar tissues,and select the appropriate anatomic approach.

Objective To explore the rule of central region lymph nodes metastasis in differentiated thyroid carcinoma (DTC) and the significance of central region lymph nodes neck dissection in surgical operation for DTC.Methods The clinical and pathological data of 122 lymph nodes in 109 patients (31 female and 78 male) with DTC undergoing neck lymph nodes ( central region lymph nodes included) dissection from Jan.2003 to Jun.2007 in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively.According to preoperative physical examination and imaging analysis,patients were divided into clinical cervical lymph nodes metastasis ( cN + ) group and clinical no cervical lymph nodes metastasis (cNO) group and compared respectively with their pathological data after surgery.Resuits Of the 122 lymph nodes,lymph node metastasis rate was significantly higher in region Ⅵ than in region Ⅱ,Ⅲ and Ⅳ.The difference had statistical significance (P ＜0.01 ).65.6％ (80/122) metastasis was in the central region.81.2％ (56/69) patients in cN + group and 45.3％ (24/53) patients in cN0 group had central region lymph nodes metastasis.Conclusions Central region lymph nodes metastasis is common for patients with DTC.Routine neck dissection in central region should be done in DTC operation.
