Objective:To analyze the eye lens dose and annual effective dose to interventional radiation workers in some hospitals of Xinxiang city from 2020 to 2022, and to ascertain the dose to interventional radiation workers.Methods:By using TLDs, the eye lens dose Hp(3) and annual effective dose Hp(10) were monitored for three consecutive years in six hospitals in Xinxiang city. The lens doses and annual effective doses to intervention radiation workers in different years in different-level hospitals and departments were analyzed. Results:From 2020 to 2022, a total of 117 people were monitored. The left eye lens dose range was 0.12-164.24 mSv, and the right eye lens dose range was 0.07-51.64 mSv. The average annual dose was 8.56 mSv for left eye lens and 4.49 mSv for right eye lens The average annual dose distribution in the MDL-5 mSv range for the left and right eye lens was 60.68% and 73.50%, respectively. 9.41% (11 people) of the left eye lens doses exceeded 20 mSv. The annual effective doses range was 0.11-31.27 mSv, with average annual dose of 2.56 mSv. The proportion of average annual effective doses mainly distributed in the range of MDL to 1.25 mSv was 52.14%, with 2.56% annual effective dose exceeding 20 mSv. There was no significant difference in left and right eye lens dose and annual effective dose between the tertiary hospitals and the secondary hospitals in three years ( P>0.05). Compared with different departments, the cumulative per capita dose in three years was statistically significant (left eye H=11.42, right eye H=13.72, annual effective dose H=25.94, P<0.05). The lens dose and annual effective dose in neurology department were lower than those in cardiology department and comprehensive intervention department ( Zcardiology department=-3.33, -3.78, -4.83, P<0.05; Zcomprehensive intervention department=-2.71, -2.63, -4.39, P<0.05). Conclusions:Most of the annual equivalent dose and annual effective dose to eye lens of the interventional radiation workers in Xinxiang city meet the national limits, but some of them have higher doses and exceed the national limits. It is suggested that the routine and continuous monitoring of eye lens doses to interventional radiologists should be strengthened while routine monitoring of annual effective dose, and attention should be paid to the eye lens and annual effective dose to interventional radiologists in secondary hospitals to improve the awareness of protection.

Objective:To establish a predictive model for coagulation in the extracorporeal circuit in elderly hemodialysis(HD)patients.Methods:The retrospective case-control study included 196 elderly patients with chronic renal failure receiving 4-h hemodialysis for the first time at the blood purification center of our hospital between March 1, 2019 and January 30, 2022.All enrolled patients were treated with heparin or related drugs for anticoagulation(including unfractionated heparin and low molecular weight heparin), with 14 cases(7.1%)in the coagulation group with a coagulation grade ≥1.There were 182 cases(92.9%)in the non-coagulation group.Demographic data, vital signs in a sitting position and the resting state before dialysis and laboratory tests before dialysis were collected.After the prediction model was developed, it was validated in elderly patients with chronic renal failure aged ≥60 years receiving 4-hour hemodialysis for the first time at our hospital between February 1, 2022 and February 1, 2023.Results:There were significant differences in heart rate[(82.6±12.3)times/min vs.(74.4±11.1)times/min]and total cholesterol[(4.3±1.2)mmol/L vs.(3.2±1.2)mmol/L]between the coagulation group and the non-coagulation group( t=2.231, 2.012, P<0.05).Multivariate logistic analysis showed that the heart rate( OR=0.930, 95% CI: 0.871-0.993, P<0.05)and cholesterol( OR=0.623, 95% CI: 0.391-0.992, P<0.05)had an effect on blood coagulation in cardiopulmonary bypass.The area under the curve(AUC)for predicting cardiopulmonary bypass clotting by heart rate was 0.639(the optimal cutoff value was 71 beats/min), the AUC for predicting clotting by total cholesterol was 0.708(the optimal cutoff value: 4.275 mmol/L), and the prediction using the combination of heart rate and total cholesterol was more effective(AUC=0.735).The model was verified in 98 patients with good results(AUC=0.895). Conclusions:The initial coagulation risk of the extracorporeal circuit in elderly patients undergoing initial HD can be preliminarily estimated based on the nomogram.

The ideal scaffold material can reconstruct the morphology, structure and function of tissues and organs. Thus, it has received extensive attention in the field of tissue engineering. With the rapid development of the theories and technologies of naturally-derived biomaterials, it has gradually become a research hotspot in the field of regenerative medicine. Natural biomaterials have high bionics, good biocompatibility and a wide range of sources. Thus, they are very suitable to be used as scaffolds for tissue engineering. According to ingredients and source of raw materials, they can be roughly divided into protein-based biomaterials (collagen, gelatin, silk and fibrin), carbohydrate-based biomaterials (cellulose, chitin/chitosan, alginate and agarose), glycosaminoglycans (hyaluronic acid, chondroitin sulfate) and decellularized extracellular matrix (amniotic membrane, small intestinal submucosa, tendons). Different scaffold materials have unique natural structures and properties. Protein-based biomaterials can affect cell migration and differentiation through polymerization to form a network structure. They can be made into stents alone or used with other synthetic materials based on certain mechanical properties. Carbohydrate biomaterials can carry a large amount of liquid due to their high specific surface area. However, their mechanical properties are poor. Therefore, it is often used in the form of gel with other materials to control the release of cells and growth factors in tendon tissue engineering. Regularly, the anti-inflammatory, viscoelastic, lubricating and highly hydrating properties of glycosaminoglycan biomaterials can be combined with synthetic materials to increase their biocompatibility and hydrophilicity. Compared with the above materials, the decellularized extracellular matrix not only has a more similar extracellular structure and nutrients, but also has certain mechanical properties. Therefore, it can better reconstruct the morphology, structure and function of tissue and organ lesions. Ultimately, the above materials have been paid more and more attention in tissue engineering. The ingenious combination of different materials makes the repair of tendons show better results. In future, naturally-derived biomaterials could have broader clinical prospects and application value.

Objective:To carry out investigation and analysis of an extensive skin radiation injury to the back accidentally caused by interventional procedure and to explore the problems faced in the event with emphasis on avoiding the reoccurance of similar events in the future.Methods:The data were collected by consulting the patient′s detailed medical history, collecting and analyzing clinical diagnosis and treatment data, tracking and observing their clinical manifestations and signs. The patient′s peripheral blood samples were also collected, together with the biological dose estimated and the equipment data collected on the site of the interventional treatment hospital.Results:The whole body dose to the patient was estimated to be 0.95 Gy. The typical values of kerma rate of radiation incident on the body surface due to fluoroscopic procedures were 373.5 mGy/min in subtraction modality and 47.8 mGy/min in fluoroscopy modality, respectively. The annual effective dose to the interventional radiologist was 20.51 mSv due to his operation in long-time radiation exposure conditions, higher than 3.09 mSv for other interventional radiologists with similar workload in the same department. The whole body and local clinical manifestations of the patients were in line with radiation injury. No clear diagnosis has been obtained in several hospitals, nor can obvious treatment outcomes be obsevered.Conclusion:Combined with the biological dose estimation result and clinical manifestations, the case was diagnosed as degree Ⅳ skin radiation injury. Radiation injury is closely related to whether the operation is conducted according to the standard and the output dose of X-ray machine. Non-specialized hospitals should strengthen clinical diagnosis and treatment of radiation injury.

Objective:To evaluate biological dose and retrospective biodosimetry of a case of large area back skin injury caused by suspected interventional procedure.Methods:Peripheral blood from the patient was collected at about 7 months after interventional procedure, and the chromosomal aberrations in peripheral blood cells were analyzed to evaluate the retrospective biodosimetry using the correction factor of dose estimation, Dolphin′s model and Qdr method, respectively. Results:Based on the amounts of semi-automated dic and manually detected dic plus ring, the whole-body average absorbed dose of the victim was estimated to be 0.68-0.95 Gy by four different dose response curves. Over dispersion of dic or dic plus ring was also detected, and the efficiency of dose assessment was obviously increased using dic semi-automatic detection. Based on three different retrospective biodosimetry models, the estimated average absorbed dose was further corrected to be between 1.80-2.86 Gy, which was consistent with clinical diagnosis of degree Ⅳ radiation skin injury.Conclusions:A case of suspected radiation skin injury was confirmed by chromosomal aberration analysis and it’s biodosimetry was reconstructed, suggesting that the unstable chromosomal aberration analysis may be applicable to assess the retrospective biodosimetry of non-uniform local radiation exposure.

Objective:To evaluate the measurement agreement of Roche 25(OH)D immunoassay(evaluation method) with LC-MS/MS (reference method).Methods:A total of 909 residual serum samples from routine health check participants were collected from May to June in 2019. 25(OH)D concentrations were measured by evaluation method and LC-MS/MS, respectively. Passing-bablok regression, intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), Bland Altman plots and Kappa test were used to analyze the consistency and bias on the results derived from the two measurement methods.Results:The 25(OH)D concentration derived from evaluation method was significantly different from those from LC-MS/MS method ( P<0.001). Slope of regression for evaluation method and LC-MS/MS was 0.962(95% CI 0.919-1.007), while intercept was -0.185 (95% CI -1.191-0.745). The ICC was 0.765 (95% CI 0.735-0.792). Altman plot showed that the average deviation between evaluation method and LC-MS/MS was -0.902 ng/ml (0.300%). The coincidence rate of evaluation method′s judgment of vitamin D sufficiency, insufficiency and deficiency with LC-MS/MS was 83.39%, and the weighted Kappa values was 0.790. Conclusion:Roche automatic 25(OH)D immunoassay shows acceptable correlation and agreement with LC-MS/MS, however, it is to note that the deviation between immunoassay and LC-MS/MS may lead to wrong judgment of vitamin D nutritional status. It is recommended that each laboratory should establish own corresponding reference values for 25(OH)D concentrations derived from these two methods.

Objective:To study the correlation between the residual amounts of commonly used tissue decellularization reagents like sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), Triton X-100, sulfobetaine 10 (SB-10) and cytotoxicity, and to find the safety threshold for controlling the residual of the reagent.Methods:SDS, Triton X-100, SB-10 solutions of different concentrations were prepared, and the cytotoxicity of solutions of different concentrations was detected by L-929 cells and MC3T3-E1 cells according to the method of GB/T 16886.5. The mass concentration range of the above three decellularization reagents was refined, and the threshold for the residual non-cytotoxicity of a single reagent was determined. Mix the three reagents in pair or three blends, and determine the threshold of non-cytotoxicity after the reagents are mixed by cytotoxicity test.Results:SDS, Triton X-100 and SB-10 caused L-929 cells to produce cytotoxic concentration values of 4×10 -3, 2×10 -2 and 6×10 -1 mg/ml, and MC3T3-E1 cells 6×10 -3, 4×10 -2 and 2 mg/ml. The toxicity trend of the three reagents is SDS>Triton X-100>SB-10. When three reagents at critical concentrations are mixed in pairs or three, they have no cytotoxicity to L-929 cells and MC3T3-E1 cells. Conclusions:When using the above three decellularization reagents to prepare decellularized scaffolds, a variety of reagent cleaning procedures should be used to efficiently clean the tissues so that the residual amount of reagents is below the critical value to ensure the biological safety of the decellularized scaffolds.

Objective:To investigate the expression and correlation of Bcl-2 and Bax in the parotid gland after leading duct ligation in rats. Methods:Atrophy of the right parotid was induced by ligating the right main duct of 72 rats. Immunohistochemical labelling was performed to study the expression of Bcl-2 and Bax 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, 21, 30, 60, 90, 150 and 180 days after duct ligation. Results:7 d after duct ligation most acinar cells disappeared. The distribution of Bcl-2 and Bax protein in normal parotid was in cytoplasm with unifo-maity. Bcl-2 and bax higher expression was identified in the gland at all time points. The expression of Bcl-2 protein was significantly in-creased and reached the peak at 21 d after duct ligation. More Bax-positive acinar cells on day 3 were observed, then the expression of Bcl-2 and Bax protein was descended. Higher Bcl-2/Bax ratio was identified at 1-21 d, then descended. Conclusion:The expression of Bcl-2 and Bax is associated with the atophy of the parotid glad after rat parotid duct ligation.
