【Objective】 To evaluate the performance and clinical application of a high-throughput nucleic acid blood screening detection system for SARS-CoV-2, so as to provide basis and technical means for its application in detection of plasma from recovered COVID-19 patients. 【Methods】 The SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid was detected by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR, and the sensitivity, precision, anti-interference and other parameters were evaluated. Blood donor samples collected during COVID-19 epidemic period were screened using the detection system to evaluate its applicability. 【Results】 The detection limits of gene N and ORF 1ab were 3.98 copies/mL and 9.38 copies/mL, respectively. The CV of high and low concentration samples were both less than 5%. Hemoglobin at 500 mg/dL and triglyceride at 3g/dL had little effect on the results. The detection system can effectively prevent carryover, thus avoiding false positive results. The SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid blood screening was carried out in a total of 39 306 blood samples, and all samples were negative. 【Conclusion】 The established method can meet the needs of SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid screening therefore ensure the safe application of plasma from recovered COVID-19 patients.

Objective: To investigate the clinical features and prognosis factors of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) patients complicated with cryptococcal meningitis (CM). Methods: Retrospective analyses were performed on clinical features, laboratory data, treatment status and related prognosis factors in 81 AIDS patients with CM admitted to the Department of Infectious Diseases, Beijing You′an Hospital, Capital Medical University from January 2010 to December 2017. The t test, rank sum test and χ² test were employed to analyze the data. Results: Of the 81 AIDS patients with CM, 71 cases were infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) by sexual transmission (87.7%). The most common clinical symptoms were fever in 60 (74.1%), headache in 72 (88.9%), and nausea and vomiting in 56 (69.1%). Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) examination results show that 60 cases (74.1%) had elevated opening pressure, the white blood cell count was 17.0 (6.0, 44.5)×10⁶/L, monocyte count was 9.0 (3.0, 29.5)×10⁶/L, the level of chloride was (117.26±5.61) mmol/L, of glucose was 2.89 (2.05, 3.41) mmol/L, of protein was 0.32 (0.21, 0.65) g/L, ink staining positive rate was 84.0% (68/81), fungal culture positive rate was 59.3% (48/81). The positive rate of serum cryptococcal antigen was 96.3% (78/81), and CSF cryptococcal antigen positive rate was 93.8% (76/81). The clinical efficacies were not significant different among different treatment regimens (χ²=1.479, P=0.533). After treatment, 60 patients survived and 21 died, with an overall mortality rate of 25.9%. Univariate analysis showed that consciousness disorder and CSF opening pressure were significantly higher in the death group than those in the survival group (χ²=22.365, t=0.317, respectively, both P<0.05), while serum albumin (Alb) and CD4⁺ T lymphocyte counts were significantly lower in the death group than those in the survival group (t=7.975, Z=-3.073, respectively, both P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that consciousness disorder and Alb were independent factors influencing the clinical outcome of AIDS patients with CM. Consciousness disorder was related with poor outcome (odd ratio (OR)=26.704, P=0.011, 95% confidence interval (CI) 2.115-337.247), and higher Alb was related with good outcome (OR=0.671, P=0.005, 95%CI 0.507-0.888). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of serum Alb for predicting poor outcomes of AIDS patients with CM was 0.932 (95% CI 0.859-0.998, P<0.01). By using 31.7 g/L as cut-off value, the sensitivity was 95% and the specificity was 81% for predicting poor outcome. Conclusions AIDS complicated with CM has a high mortality rate, and its clinical features are lack of specificity. Consciousness disorder and Alb are independent prognosis factors.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy of posterior decompression pedicle screw fixation and single pedicle screw fixation for thoracolumbar fracture with greenstick lamina fracture. Methods: A retrospective case series study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 106 patients with thoracolumbar fractures combined with greenstick lamina fractures admitted to the 909th hospital from January 2011 to May 2016. There were 68 males and 38 females, aged 21-58 years [(39.5±7.1)years]. The fracture was located at T₁₁ in 9 patients, at T₁₂ in 6, at L₁ in 28, at L₃ in 11. A total of 58 patients underwent posterior decompression pedicle screw fixation including 37 males and 21 females, aged 23-58 years [(38.7±6.6)years]. The preoperative neurological function was evaluated according to ASIA grade: grade A for three patients, grade B for nine, grade C for 14, grade D for 27, and grade E for 53 patients. A total of 48 patients were treated with single posterior pedicle screws fixation including 31 males and 17 females, aged 21-57 years [(41.4±5.8)years]. Statistical indicators included operation time, intraoperative blood loss, anterior height ratio of injured vertebrae, sagittal Cobb angle, visual analogue scale (VAS), ASIA grading, dural tears and/or cauda equina entrapment, and complications. Results: All patients were followed up for 24-72 months [(30.2±4.7)months]. The operation time ranged from 105 to 137 minutes [(113.5±21.3)minutes], and the intraoperative blood loss was 235-310 ml [(252.2±28.6)ml] in the posterior decompression and pedicle screws fixation group. In the posterior pedicle screw fixation group, the operation time ranged from 52 to 85 minutes [(65.3±9.6)minutes], and the intraoperative blood loss was 72-125 ml [(90.2±23.6)ml]. The anterior height ratio of injured vertebrae, sagittal Cobb angle and VAS score of the two groups were significantly improved immediately after operation and at the last follow-up (all P<0.01). At one year follow up, the ASIA grading in patients treated with single posterior pedicle screw fixation remained the same while the ASIA grading of patients treated with posterior decompression pedicle screw fixation was significantly improved compared with before operation. Dural tears were found in 12 patients and cauda equina entrapment were found in five patients during decompression. Three patients had neurological function injury after posterior pedicle screw internal fixation surgery, and they received a second decompression operation. Dural tears and/or cauda equina entrapment were subsequently found in all of the three patients. No complications related to internal fixation occurred during follow-up. Conclusions Both posterior decompression pedicle screw fixation and single pedicle screw fixation can effectively correct the kyphosis deformity, restore vertebral body height, and relieve pain in the treatment of thoracolumbar fracture with greenstick lamina fracture. Dural tears and/or cauda equina entrapment might be subsequently found in greenstick lamina fracture. Posterior pedicle screw fixation can not release the entrapped cauda nerve, so attention should be paid to the risk of secondary surgery.

OBJECTIVE: To study the combined effect of noise and hydrogen cyanide on noise-induced hearing loss( NIHL)in a metal electroplating enterprise. METHODS: The judgment sampling method was used to select 663 workers in a largescale metal electroplating enterprise as the study subjects. Among them,186 workers exposed to noise alone were designated as noise group; 138 workers exposed to hydrogen cyanide alone were designated as hydrogen cyanide group; and161 workers exposed to noise and hydrogen cyanide were designated as combined effect group,and 178 workers without exposure from occupational disease risk factors were designated as control group. Questionnaires survey and pure tone audiometry were used for analyzing the effects of combined noise and hydrogen cyanide exposure on NIHL. RESULTS: The hearing loss detection rate of the study subjects was 40. 4%. The hearing loss detection rates in the control group,noise group,hydrogen cyanide group,and combined effect group were 17. 4%,47. 8%,32. 6% and 64. 0%,respectively. The detection rate of hearing loss in the control group was lower than that in the other three groups( P < 0. 008). The NIHL detection rates in the combined effect group and the noise group were higher than that in the hydrogen cyanide group( P <0. 008). The hearing loss detection rate of the combined effect group was higher than that of the noise group and the hydrogen cyanide group( P < 0. 008). Ordinal multi-categorical logistic regression model results showed that after adjusting confounding factors such as age,length of service,gender,marital status,smoking,alcohol drinking,we found hydrogen cyanide exposure,noise exposure,and combined exposure to hydrogen cyanide and noise had effects on workers' hearing(P < 0. 05). The risk of hearing loss in workers exposed to noise and hydrogen cyanide was higher than that of workers exposed to noise alone or hydrogen cyanide alone. CONCLUSION: There is a combined effect of noise and hydrogen cyanide in this metal electroplating enterprise,which can increase the risk of NIHL in workers.

Objective The failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) were used to monitor the managerial process of high-value consumables in the implantation surgery, and establish the traceable management process for high-value consumables of the implantation surgery. Methods FMEA was used to carry out risk assessment process, formulate specific measures for improvement. The risk priority number(RPN),the qualified rate of the management index of implant surgical consumables,the patients satisfaction, and the number of adverse events reported were compared before and after the implementation of this process management. Results After FMEA was used to conduct management over implant surgery consumables,the RPN value decreased dramatically due to difficulty of traceability, information recording, and imperfect management system, thereby showing that the difference was statistically significant (t=16.655, 10.664, 9.321, P<0.01). Quality management measures: the access to consumables meets the requirements,complete information record,quality of stock consumables,paste bar code standard, charge accurate, return visits and records on time, consumables traceability, patient satisfaction rate were 99.2%(373/376),96.7%(363/376),99.5%(374/376),95.6%(361/376),98.6%(371/376), 95.7% (360/376), 100.0% (376/376), 97.1% (365/376), respectively after the implementation of this process management, which were higher than 90.9% (355/390), 81.8% (319/390), 94.2% (367/390), 91.3% (356/390),84.7%(330/390),87.3%(341/390),87.5%(342/390),91.8%(358/390)before the implementation of this process management, thereby showing that the difference was statistically significant (χ2=7.149-49.371, P<0.01).The number of adverse consumables event reports increased from 0 up to 5. Conclusions It was feasible and effective to improve the level of hospital management and ensure the safety of patients by using the FMEA model in the implantation surgical high-value consumables.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of hook plate and fascia lata graft in management of chronic acromioclavicular joint dislocation.Methods From May 2012 to March 2014,a total of 16 cases of chronic acromioclavicular joint dislocation (Rockwood type Ⅲ) were treated with hook plate and fascia lata graft.They were 10 men and 6 women,from 19 to 57 years of age (mean,34.7 years).Seven cases were at the left side and 9 at the right side.All injuries resulted from direct violence.The time from injury to surgery ranged from 8 to 54 weeks (mean,12.4 weeks).At the final follow-ups,the shoulder function was assessed using the Quick Version of the Disabilities of the Arm,Shoulder and Hand Score (DASH) and visual analogue scale (VAS),and the efficacy using Karlsson's evaluation system.Results All surgical wounds primarily healed.The dislocation of acromioclavicular joint was corrected,without any vascular or neural damage.The patients were followed up for an average of 12 months (from 6 to 18 months).No plate breakage,screw loosening or redislocation was observed.The DASH and VAS scores of the shoulder at the final follow-ups (25.42 ± 8.34 and 2.22 ± 1.70,respectively) were significantly improved,compared with the preoperative ones (43.72 ± 12.35 and 6.33 ± 1.37,respectively) (P ＜ 0.05).According to the Karlsson's criteria,10 cases were excellent,4 good and 2 moderate.Conclusion In management of Rockwood type Ⅲ chronic acromioclavicular joint dislocation,hook plate and fascia lata graft can restore dynamic balance and stability of the acromioclavicular joint,resulting in solid fixation,early joint motion and limited complications.
