Cryoglobulinemia is a group of disorders characterized by the presence of temperature-dependent immunoglobulins in serum, exhibiting high heterogeneity in classification and clinical manifestations. Laboratory diagnosis serves as a crucial diagnostic tool for this condition. In recent years, the application of next-generation flow cytometry, mass spectrometry, and modified capillary immunotyping has significantly improved the sensitivity of cryoglobulin detection and the accuracy of subtyping. Moreover, this disease is frequently associated with infections, autoimmune disorders, and B-cell lymphoproliferative disorders, making dynamic monitoring of laboratory indicators essential for prognostic evaluation. This article systematically elaborates the pathogenesis of cryoglobulinemia and advances in laboratory diagnosis, aiming to enhance clinical and laboratory professionals′ understanding and comprehension of cryoglobulinemia.

AIM: To investigate the mechanism and reversal effect of Zuo Jin Wan (ZJW) on cetuximab (CET) resistance in KRAS mutant colorectal cancer cell. METHODS: The mutation status of KRAS gene in SW620, Lovo, HCT116, HT29 and Caco2 cells were detected by Sanger sequencing. CCK-8 assay was used to detect the effects of ZJW, CET, ZJW combined with CET and CET, ZJW in combination with other cell death inhibitors on the survival rate of the above cells, and to observe the reversal effects of ZJW on CET-treated KRAS mutant cells (SW620, Lovo and HCT116). Flow cytometry, colorimetric method, and Fe

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effect of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine on common type of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID -19) in Henan Province. Methods:A prospective single arm clinical study was performed. Patients with common type of COVID -19 admitted to seven designated hospitals for COVID -19 in Henan Province from January 25th to February 26th, 2020 were enrolled, and treated with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine. The negative transformation of 2019 novel coronavirus (2019 -nCoV) nucleic acid, disease outcome, hospital stay, clinical symptoms and signs scores, and chest imaging performance were observed. Results:Totally 86 cases were included in the analysis, including 48 males (55.8%), aged 43.5 (35.0, 53.3) years old, 24 patients (27.9%) with previous medical history. Fifty-eight patients were primarily diagnosed COVID -19 and 28 patients were transferred. The 2019 -nCoV nucleic acid of 86 cases (100%) turned negative, and the median time of turning negative was 10 (7, 14) days. Eighty-six cases (100%) were discharged from hospital, and none turned into the severe type; the average length of hospital stay was (13.8±5.6) days. The scores of fever, cough, chest tightness, shortness of breath, and fatigue decreased with the treatment time, and the scores of 7 days and 14 days after treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment [fever (points): 0 (0, 0), 0 (0, 0) vs. 1 (0, 1); cough (points): 1 (0, 1), 0 (0, 1) vs. 1 (0, 2); chest tightness (points): 0 (0, 0), 0 (0, 0) vs. 0 (0, 1); shortness of breath (points): 0 (0, 0), 0 (0, 0) vs. 0 (0, 1); fatigue (points): 0 (0, 1), 0 (0, 1) vs. 1 (0, 1); all P < 0.05]. The improvement rate of X ray and CT image was 42.9% (12/28) and 81.0% (64/79), respectively. Conclusions:The treatment with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine has good curative effect on common type of COVID -19 in 7 designated hospitals of Henan Province. It can improve the clinical symptoms, promote the absorption of pulmonary inflammation, and to some extent control the progress of disease and shorten the time of turning negative of virus nucleic acid and hospital stay.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of transurethral frontfiring photoselective vaporesection for the treatment of cystitis glandularis,by comparing with the transurethral bipolar plasmakinetic resection.Methods From January 2014 to July 2016,41 patients with pathologically diagnosed cystitis glandularis in our hospital,were divided into two groups,including 22 cases underwent transurethral frontfiring photoselective vaporesection(the observation group),and the other 19 cases underwent transurethral bipolar plasmakinetic resection(the control group).All patients were regularly treated with postoperative intravesical instillation chemotherapy with pirarubicin.The clinical data of two groups were statistically analyzed to compare the differences of the safety and efficacy.Results All the surgeries were performed successfully.There were no statistical significances in perioperative data,the operation time,the decreased concentration of hemoglobin(Hb)and Na+,operative related complications, indwelling catheter duration and hospitalization duration between the two groups.The first-time cure rate and the effective rate of transurethral frontfiring photoselective vaporesection showed significantly better than those of transurethral bipolar plasmakinetic resection(P<0.05 for each).Conclusion Comparing the traditional transurethral bipolar plasmakinetic resection for the treatment of cystitis glandularis,tansurethral frontfiring photoselective vaporesection with postoperative intravesical instillation chemotherapy with pirarubicin,is a safer,simpler,and more effective method,which could be a new optional method in the conditional hospitals,deserving the worthy of clinical popularization.
