Objective:To evaluate the clinical application of urine sediment score (USS) in early diagnosis, etiological differentiation, staging and prognosis of acute kidney injury (AKI), and to investigate the diagnostic efficacy of independent USS and its combination with blood urea nitrogen(Bun) serum creatinine(sCr) and uric acid(UA) in AKI.Methods:From August 23 to September 28, 2023, 9 020 morning urine samples of hospitalized patients in the First Hospital of Jilin University were detected by Sysmex UF5000.A total of 3 226 ssamples with small and round cell (SRC) > 1/μl and/or CAST>1/μl were screened for microscopic examination, and 404 cases with positive renal tubular epithelial cells and/or cast were enrolled in this study. There were 218 males and 186 females, aged 59.5 (49.0, 71.0) years. The 404 cases were divided into the USS AKI group (345 cases) and the USS non-AKI group (59 cases) according to the USS results based on the microscopic findings. According to Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) criteria, they were divided into KDIGO criteria AKI group (63 cases) and KDIGO criteria non-AKI group (341 cases), and the AKI group was divided into renal AKI group (33 cases) and non-renal AKI group (30 cases). According to the clinical diagnosis recorded in the medical records, they were divided into clinically diagnosed AKI group (29 cases) and clinically diagnosed non-AKI group (375 cases).The χ 2 test or Fisher exact test was used to compare USS in different AKI causes and stages. Logistic regression was used to calculate the odds ratio of renal AKI and stage 3 AKI. The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was used to evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of USS, sCr, UA and Bun alone and in combination in the diagnosis of AKI, and the best cut-off value, sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of AKI were calculated. P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:The USS was used to identify the etiology of KDIGO standard AKI group,and there were significant differences in USS between renal AKI group and non-renal AKI group (χ 2=11.070, P<0.001). Compared to USS=1, the odds ratio of renal AKI was 8.125 when USS≥2 (95% CI 2.208—29.901). There was a statistically significant difference in the comparison of USS between groups in each stage of the AKI staging study based on USS (χ 2=15.724, P<0.05). Compared to USS=1, the odds ratio of stage 3 AKI was 9.714 when USS≥2 (95% CI 1.145-82.390). The AUC of independent USS in the diagnosis of AKI was 0.687 (95% CI 0.618-0.757, P<0.001), the specificity was 65.7% and the sensitivity was 61.9%. The AUC of USS combined with Bun, sCr, UA in the diagnosis of AKI was 0.794 (95% CI 0.608-0.980, P<0.05), the specificity was 82.4%, and the sensitivity was 88.9%. Conclusions:There wasan increased likelihood of renal AKI or stage 3 AKI while USS≥2,and whose combination with Bun, sCr and UA will improve the diagnostic efficiency of AKI.

Objective:To analyze the safety and efficacy of G-iliac? iliac branch device (IBD) in the treatment of common iliac artery aneurysm.Methods:The clinical data of 7 patients with common iliac artery aneurysm who were treated with G-iliac? IBD and internal iliac artery (IIA) preserved were retrospectively analyzed in the Department of Vascular Surgery, Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from June 2021 to June 2022, and the surgical effects and related complications were analyzed.Results:All 7 patients were male, aged from 57 to 80 years, with an average age of 70.9 years. There were 6 cases of abdominal aortic aneurysm combined with common iliac artery aneurysm and 1 case of simple common iliac artery aneurysm, all of them were successfully applied with G-iliac? IBD to preserve IIA. Cardiogenic shock occurred in 1 patient after the operation. 7 patients were followed up for 3-15 months, with an average of 8 months. During the follow-up period, the iliac artery and IIA stents were all patency, and there was no IBD-related endoleak, stent displacement, buttock claudication, sexual dysfunction, or aortic-related death. The diameter of abdominal aortic aneurysm and common iliac artery aneurysm were stable.Conclusion:For patients with common iliac artery aneurysm, preservation of IIA with G-iliac? IBD is a safe and effective technique with a high technical success rate and IIA patency rate, and has a low complication rate, but the long-term effect still requires more data and longer follow-up data to support.

Objective:To explore the diagnosis and treatment of transplanted renal artery stenosis(TRAS)in children.Methods:From January 2016 to August 2021, clinical data of 7 TRAS patients were collected.A definite diagnosis was confirmed by Doppler ultrasound and computed tomography angiography.Results:Patient age was significantly higher than donor age(11.9±3.7 vs 1.0±0.5 years, P<0.001); 5 patients had a widened diameter at stenotic grafted renal artery after intervention(1.98±0.47 vs 4.64±1.19 mm, P=0.002). A reduction in peak systolic flow velocity in stenotic segment of artery(463.3±90.6 vs 183.6±58.9 cm/s, P<0.001)and lower systolic blood pressure(137.2±15.5 vs 129.7±12.3 mmHg, P=0.029)were observed.Resistance index rose(0.38±0.22 vs 0.60±0.03, P=0.063). Significant difference of estimated glomerular filtration rate was observed at Week 4 post-operation as compared with pre-intervention.Two patients developed complications after intervention, including perirenal hematoma and stent-attached thrombus.Two patients were treated conservatively with a gradual increase in blood pressure and three antihypertensive drugs prescribed. Conclusions:Doppler ultrasound should be performed regularly after renal transplantation for detecting TRAS at an early stage in children.Interventional treatment is ideal for severe TRAS to improve perfusion and renal function.Clinicians should pay more attention to complications.

【Objective】 To understand the occupational exposure of blood center staff during blood collection and supply, analyze the influencing factors, explore preventive measures and improve the self-protection awareness of staff, so as to further improve the prevention of such occupational exposure in blood centers. 【Methods】 Seventy-two occupational exposure cases, which occurred and registered in Beijing Red Cross Blood Center from January 2010 to December 2021, were reviewed by retrospective survery methods, and such cases were classified and analyzed statistically. The incidence of blood-borne occupational exposure was compared by genders, departments, occurrence locations, education level, occupation type, work link, causes of exposure and body parts, so as to analyze the influencing factors, and then propose corresponding prevention strategies. 【Results】 From 2010 to 2021, a total of 72 blood-borne occupational exposure cases occurred. When classified by gender, the exposure rate of women was more than twice that of men; by age, the exposure rate of 18~25 years old was the highest, reaching 7.84%, but 26~40 years old group contributed the most cases, accounting for 70.83% (51/72); by working years, the exposure rate of staff with working years less than 3 years was relatively high, but the staff with 4~10 working years contributed the most cases, accounting for 54.17% (39/72); by the education level, the the exposure rate of stall with bachelor degree and below was the highest(90.28%, 65/72); by the professional title level, the exposure rate of staff with primary and intermediate professional titles was relatively high (94.44% , 68/72); by departments, the exposure rate of Blood Donation Service was the highest (81.94%, 59/72), which was twice or even three times than that of other departments; by occupational type, nurses had the highest exposure rate, accounting for 87.5% (63/72); by body parts, hands were the most vulnerable body parts to occupational exposure; by location, the exposure rate on mobile vehicles is four times than that in indoor places; by the number of exposure times, the incidence of one exposure cases accounted for 72.22%(52/72)while multiple exposure was rare by work link, the exposure rate of the sampling link was significantly higher than that of the other links. 【Conclusion】 Blood-borne occupational exposure of staff in blood centers is closely related to gender, age, working years, professional title level, department, occupational type, occurrence place, and body part, and has nothing to do with the education level. More attention should be paid to middle-aged female nurses on the front line of blood donation service, staff with primary or intermediate titles and undergraduate degrees. Otherwise, training and protection should be enhanced, operation methods be standardized, the blood collection environment be improved, and the management, automation and intelligent level of blood collection be promoted.

Chinese Journal of Blood Transfusion 2022;35(2):189-192
【Objective】 To investigate the high-risk groups and scenarios of adverse reactions to blood donation(ARBD) through statistical analysis of the incidence and distribution of ARBD in Beijing from 2017 to 2020, and discuss the preventive measures, so as to retain more regular blood donors with better service and blood donation experience. 【Methods】 The data of 1 047 036 voluntary blood donors during 2017 to 2020 were reviewed. The incidence of blood donation reactions was counted, and factors as gender, blood collection sites, blood group and number of blood donations were collected, the influencing factors of ARBD were analyzed to put forward targeted solutions. 【Results】 Among 1 047 036 blood donations in Beijing from 2017 to 2020, 2 163 (0.21%) developed ARBD. The incidence of ARBD in women was twice that in men, and was highest in age group 18 to 25 years old (47.8%, 1 034/2 163). In terms of blood donation sites, the incidence of ARBD was close under different blood donation environments, but ARBD occurred in mobile donation sites accounted for 65.51% (1 417/2 163). The incidence of ARBD in different blood types was basically the same, that of repeated blood donors was the lowest, and that of first-time blood donors accounted for 66.07% (1 429/2 163). The incidence of ARBD occurred within 30 minutes after blood donation was 43.64% (944/2 163), and it was dominated by systemic manifestations (Class B) (73.05%, 1 580 / 2 163). 【Conclusion】 Gender, age, blood donation sites, number of blood donations, occurrence time and ARBD categories were the influencing factors of ARBD. It is suggested to pay more attention to women, young and first-time blood donors, improve blood donation environment, and stay for 30 minutes after blood donation.

【Objective】 To explore the application of multi-mode electrophysiological monitoring technology in highly selective posterior rhizotomy (SPR) of patients with spastic cerebral palsy. 【Methods】 We retrospectively collected data on patients with systolic cerebral palsy who underwent SPR in our hospital from January 2019 to December 2019. Bispectral index (BIS), somatosensory evoked potentials (SEP) and electromyography during surgery of all the patients were measured. We used EMG to monitor the depth of the anus, spinal cord function, and the stimulation response of multiple muscle groups, and recorded and summarized abnormal intraoperative electrophysiological monitoring, surgical treatment and complications during displacement and discharge, and relief and exercise functional recovery six months after the surgery. 【Results】 The intraoperative BIS parameters of 18 patients were 60-75, the EMG amplitude was abnormal in 1 case (5.6%), and the SEP amplitude decreased in 1 case (5.6%). The preoperative muscle tension of both lower extremities was 3.6 on average, and the postoperative muscle tension was 1.4, with a decrease by 2.2 grades. There were 16 cases (88.9%) in long-term follow-up, among which 12 cases (75%) had complete relief of spasm, 4 cases (25%) had significant improvement, gait function improvement rate was 100%, and no complications occurred. 【Conclusion】 Multi-mode electrophysiological monitoring technology is an effective method for SPR to increase the success rate of surgery. It can increase the accuracy of the ratio of posterior root resection of spinal nerves, reduce the risk of spinal cord damage, and improve the poor prognosis.

【Objective】 To explore the application of multi-mode electrophysiological monitoring technology in cervical spine surgery. 【Methods】 We retrospectively collected data of patients who received cervical spine surgery in Department of Neurosurgery of our hospital in January 2018 to December 2019. All patients were guided by the bispectral index (BIS) to control the depth of anesthesia. High cervical spine lesions were treated with somatosensory evoked potentials (SEP), motor evoked potentials (MEP), brainstem auditory evoked potentials(BAEP)and electromyography (EMG) monitoring. We selected SEP, MEP and EMG combined monitoring for low cervical nerve and spinal cord injury, recorded and summarized the abnormalities of intraoperative electrophysiological monitoring, surgical efficacy and complications at the time of discharge and 6 months after surgery. 【Results】 The intraoperative BIS parameters of 112 patients were 45-60, the MEP amplitude decreased in 9 cases (8.0%), the SEP amplitude decreased in 4 cases (3.6%), the EMG amplitude was abnormal in 5 cases (4.5%), and the BAEP amplitude decreased in 4 cases (3.6%); no operation was terminated due to significant abnormalities in monitoring. Compared with 44 cases (39.3%) before operation, 112 patients had little change in SEP and MEP amplitudes, 35 cases (31.3%) had a slight increase in SEP amplitude, 2 cases (1.8%) had a slight decrease, 24 cases (21.4%) had slightly increased MEP amplitude, while 7 cases (6.3%) had slightly decreased one. There were no new neurological disorders at the time of postoperative discharge and 6 months after surgery. 【Conclusion】 Multi-mode electrophysiological monitoring shows the recovery of damaged nerve electrophysiological activity immediately after the operation, which provides an objective basis for the recovery of nerve function, and can effectively prevent and reduce iatrogenic spinal cord and nerve function damage, and improve the efficacy of surgery.
