ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss clinical significance of the neutrophil alkaline phosphatase(NAP) activity in polycythemia pa‐tients .Methods 35 cases of patients with secondary polycythemia(secondary group) and 22 patients with polycythemia vera (poly‐cythemia vera group) were enrolled in the study ,whose peripheral blood smears were stained by using chemical method and the pos‐itive rate and scores of NAP were assessed .In addition to that ,30 cases of healthy people who had underwent physical examination were recruited as control group .Results NAP positive rate and scores of the polycythemia vera group were significantly higher than those of secondary and control group(P0 .05) .Conclusion NAP score is a good methord to diagnose polycythemia ,which could facilitate rapid ,accurate diagno‐sis and be used as auxiliary indicators in the differential diagnosis of polycythemia .
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical application value of strong ion gap(SIG)generated by the third generation equa-tion following pH and the anion gap(AG)in critically ill patients.Methods On the basis of the determination results of blood gas and blood biochemistry,the equation in the Stewart-Figge methodology was adopted to calculate SIG.Results (1)There were sta-tistically significant differences in K+ ,Na+ ,HCO3 - ,AG,pH,PO4 3 - ,ALB,SIG and Cr between the critical illness groups and the control group(P <0.05).(2)The SIG mean value ratio the death group to non-death group was 3.04,the difference was the big-gest,P <0.05,AG and Cr took the second place.Conclusion SIG as a new indicator in combination with other biochemical and blood gas indicators,such as the HCO3 - ,AG,pH,PO4 3 - ,Cr and lactic acid can reflect the situation of the acid-base disorders in critically ill patients and plays a strong indicative role in predicting the disease development trends.
