Objective:To explore the microbiological characteristics of donor blood culture and donor liver perfusion culture and summarize the clinical experiences to provide basic rationales for preventing donor-derived infections.Methods:From August 1, 2018 to November 26, 2018 and November 27, 2018 to December 31, 2020 at First Affiliated Hospital, Zhengzhou University, culture results of donor blood and donor liver perfusate were retrospectively reviewed.According to whether or not donor liver was obtained without breaking diaphragm, removing gallbladder intraoperatively and flushing bile through cystic duct, two stages were assigned: before and after improvement measures of liver donor, i.e.August 1, 2018 to November 26, 2018 and November 27, 2018 to December 31, 2020.The culture results of donor blood samples and donor liver perfusion fluid samples in two stages of liver transplantation were statistically analyzed and infection preventing measures during donor liver maintenance and obtaining donor liver examined.Results:A total of 486 cases of blood culture from potential donors and 478 cases of liver perfusion culture were analyzed.The results showed that the incidence of blood culture infection was 4.5% and 4.3% before and after improvement measures( χ2=0.008; P=0.927)while the incidence of perfusion fluid infection was 56.8% and 46.2%( χ2=4.569; P=0.031); Klebsiella pneumoniae was a major pathogen cultured in perfusion solution before improvement measures and Staphylococcus epidermidis after improvement measures. Conclusions:Before organ donation, infection screening and prevention of potential donors and corresponding measures during donor liver acquisition can reduce donor source infection and effectively lower the mortality of recipients.

OBJECTIVE: To analyze the expression of microRNA-106a(miR-106a) in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and its correlation with clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of patients. METHODS: Serum samples of 64 patients with newly diagnosed RCC were collected as the study group, and serum samples of 40 healthy individuals were used as the control group. Real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR was used to determine the expression level of miR-106a in each group. The correlation between miR-106a expression and clinicopathological characteristics of the patients was studied with single factor analysis and multiple Logistic regression model. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was used to analyze its correlation with the prognosis of patients. RESULTS: Before surgery, compared with the control group (1.17± 0.58), RCC patients with high- (9.15± 0.96) and low-expression(3.45± 0.37) had increased expression of miR-106a. Postoperatively, the expression level of miR-106a in both groups of patients decreased to 1.53± 0.18 and 1.75± 0.21, respectively. The area under the curve (AUC) of the diagnostic value of serum miR-106a for RCC was 0.782 (95% CI: 0.661-0.902). With an optimal cutoff value of 0.531, the sensitivity was 78.10% and the specificity was 75.00%. Serum miR-106a level of RCC patients with TNM stage T3 or T4, clinical stage II or III, lymph node metastasis, and recurrence were significantly increased. The high expression of serum miR-106a in RCC patients has an independent relationship with the tumor TNM stage and lymph node metastasis. Of the 64 follow-up patients, 4 were lost and 30 had died. Among them, the median survival time of patients in the miR-106a high expression group was 30 months, which was significantly shorter than that of the low expression group (52 months). CONCLUSION The serum level of miR-106a is elevated in RCC patients, and may be used as a molecular marker for the diagnosis of RCC. High serum expression of miR-106a is an independent predictor for tumor TNM stage and lymph node metastasis, as well as an independent predictor for poor prognosis of RCC patients.
