		                        			【Objective】 To develop an assay to determine β-lactam antibiotics using microcolumn gels and to study the β-lactam antibiotics present in the blood of patients and their clinical significances. 【Methods】 446 patients with a history of taking β-lactam antibiotics from January 2019 to June 2019 were randomly selected from Trauma Emergency Center, Department of Arthrosis, Department of Spine and Department of Bone Oncology of our hospital, and 4 mL(per capita) venous blood was collected. Irregular antibody screening, anti-globulin detection and drug antibody determination were performed by microcolumn gel method. The data of gender, age, disease, blood transfusion history and medication were collected. The test results and clinical data were retrospective analyzed. 【Results】 The yielding rate of antibody was 0.45%(2/446) in patients with a history of taking β -lactam antibiotics. 16.38%(73/446) of the samples were positive in direct antiglobulin test, and 64.38%(47/73) of them did not agglutinate with RBCs treated with drugs. The yielding rate of specific antibodies against drug was 4.93%(22/446), and the titer ranged from 2 to 128(8). 1 case of auto-IgM antibody, 1 case of blood group related antibody and 2 cases of non-specific protein adsorption were detected. The yielding rate of drug antibody in patients with blood transfusion history reached to 12.10 %(22/124), so it was also high in patients with bone tumor. 【Conclusion】 Direct antiglobulin assay is helpful for the detection of β-lactam antibodies. The negative results of antibody screening cannot completely exclude the presence of drug antibodies. The yielding rate of drug antibody can be greatly improved by specific drug antibody detection, and it was higher in transfused patients relative to non-transfused one.

		                        			Objective:To investigate the correlation between antiplatelet agents and the risk of ruptured intracranial aneurysm.Methods:Patients with intracranial aneurysm admitted to the Department of Neurology, East Hospital Area of Qingdao Municipal Hospital from June to December 2018 were selected retrospectively. The baseline data of patients and the characteristics of intracranial aneurysms were collected. The independent correlation between antiplatelet agents and the risk of ruptured intracranial aneurysm was identified by the univariable analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results:A total of 90 patients with intracranial aneurysm were included in the study. There were 31 males (34.44%) and 59 females (65.56%). The median diameter of the aneurysm was 4 mm. Forty-six patients taking antiplatelet agents before being diagnosed with intracranial aneurysm, of which 36 taking aspirin, 3 taking clopidogrel, and 7 taking aspirin+ clopidogrel. There were 31 patients (34.44%) with ruptured aneurysm and 59 (65.56%) with unruptured aneurysm. There were statistical differences in the proportion of patients with age <60 years ( P<0.05), diabetes ( P<0.1), ischemic heart disease ( P<0.05), history of previous stroke or transient ischemic attack ( P<0.01), internal carotid artery aneurysm ( P<0.01), anterior communicating artery aneurysm ( P<0.05), posterior communicating artery aneurysm ( P<0.01) and taking antiplatelet agents before diagnosis ( P<0.1) between the ruptured group and the unruptured group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age <60 years (odds ratio[ OR] 4.116, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 1.337-12.673; P=0.014), anterior communicating artery aneurysm ( OR 5.015, 95% CI 1.155-22.559; P=0.032) and posterior communicating artery aneurysm ( OR 68.796, 95% CI 6.762-699.951; P<0.001) were the independent risk factors for ruptured intracranial aneurysm, and taking antiplatelet agents was an independent protective factor for ruptured intracranial aneurysm ( OR 0.320, 95% CI 0.104-0.992; P=0.048). Conclusions:Taking antiplatelet agents, especially aspirin, does not increase the risk of ruptured intracranial aneurysm, but may be a protective factor of ruptured intracranial aneurysm. Unruptured aneurysms are not contraindications for antiplatelet therapy in patients with clear indications.

		                        			Objective To identify the thromolysis rate in patients with ischemic ccrebrovascular disease in Qingdao area and to analyze the causes of influcncing thrombolytic therapy and investigate their influencing factors. Methods We adopted a unified questionnaire about the status of diagnosis and treatment of stroke in Qigndao. The patients with acute stroke in the 11 departments of neurology of Qingdao municipal and county hospitals (all with thrombolytic conditios) from October 1,2008 to October 31,2009 were collected retrospectively. A face to face questionnaire survey was performed, their clinical data were collected and the factors of influencing thrombolytic therapy were analyzed. Results Actually 864 patients with ischemic eerebrovascular disease were investigated. Only 10 patients received thrombolytic therapy. The thrombolysis rate was 1.16%, and the thrombolysis rate within a 4.5-hour time widow was 6. 33 %. Logistic regression analysis showed that in addition to thrombolytic contraindications,the factors that influencing thrombolytic therapy in patients with acute ischemic stroke included the treatment in different level-hospitals (OR =0.061,95% CI O. 006-0. 703, P =0. 040) and the United States National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score (OR = 0.810,95% CI 0. 729-0.900, P = 0.000) at presentation. Conclusions The thrombolysis rate in patients with cerebrovascular disease in Qingdao area was relatively lower. In addition to thrombolytic contraindications, the factors that influencing thrombolytic therapy in ptients with acute ischemic stroke included the treatment in different level-hospitals and NIHSS score at presentation.

Methods A total of 700 patients with acute cerebrovascular disease from the city, county and township hospitals in Qingdao were selected from June 2008 to February 2009. A questionnaire survey was used to investigate and analyze the visiting time in patients with stroke and its possible influencing factors. Results The average visiting rate in patients with acute cerebrovascular disease was 30% within 4.5 hours after the onset in Qingdao area. The average visiting rate of the township hospitals was lowest (26%), of the city hospitals was moderate (28%), and of the county hospitals was highest (36%). For the city hospitals, the male patients usually delayed the visiting. The patients with high school or higher education level, urban medical insurance, 120 transportation, and the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) < 3 could usually he treated timely; For the county hospitals, the patients with secondary school or lower education level, 120 transportation, and NIHSS <3 could usually be treated timely. For the township hospitals, the patients with NIHSS > 7 and unconsciousness could usually be treated timely. Conclusions The patients with acute cerebrovascular disease in the city, county and township hospitals in Qingdao area had significant treatment delay. Of those, 120 transportation and higher levels of education could decrease the treatment delay of patients. Therefore, perfecting stroke emergency network, raising people's level of education, and strengthening propaganda and education on stroke knowledge in all levels of hospitals are essential for timely treatment of stroke patients.
