ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the changes of drug resistance and class Ⅰ integron in clinically isolated Pseudomonas aeruginosa(PA) in our hospital form January 2013 to December 2015.Methods Clinically isolated PA strains were divided into the 3 time periods of 2013,2014 and 2015.Their resistance to 22 commonly used antibacterial drugs was investigated by adopting the VITEK-2;200 strains were randomly selected from the isolated strains during these 3 time periods.Class Ⅰ integron was detect by PCR.Results The detected PA in these 3 time periods had 366,437 and 520 strains respectively.The drug resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa to 22 commonly used antibacterial drugs was remarkably increased(P<0.05),especially in ICU.The detection rate of class Ⅰ integron positive bacteria was gradually increased year by year,moreover the drug resistance rate of class Ⅰ integron positive bacteria was significantly higher than that of class Ⅰ integron negative bacteria (P<0.01).Conclusion The drug resistance rate of PA in this hospital is higher.The proportions of multi-drug resistance and classⅠ integron are significantly increased.The hospital infection detection and drug-resistant bacterial monitoring should be strengthened to further standardize the use of antibacterial drugs.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the clinical values of impedance method,optical method and microscopy when used to detect platelet abnormal results.Methods Platelet re-examinations by optical method and microscopy were carried out in case of low confidence degree in platelet test with impedance method by XE-2100 automatic hematology analyzer,and then the results by the three methods were compared.Results Most of the low-confidence-degree results by impedance method could be corrected by re-examination by optical method,and the remained had to turn to microscopy due to unsatisfied requirements of the instrument.Conclusion Optical method has to be involved to correct the platelet abnormal results by XE2100 automatic hematology analyzer,and microscopy should be applied in case optical method doesn't work.The three methods gains advantages and disadvantages of themselves,and can be supplementaries for one another.

ABSTRACT
As one important member of the biological sample library , blood samples are rich in biological molecules, which can be used for disease diagnosis , prognosis of disease staging , and prognosis et al.compared with tissue samples, blood samples have some advantages , such as easier to access, sampling in a row and rich test items and so on.However, after blood samples were collected, which need to be processed, packed and frozen in ice for long-term preservation container.Otherwise RNA in the blood sample is unstable and easily degradation in normal temperature transportation and preservation condition , thus subsequently affecting the molecular diagnostic biomarkers ′detection, analysis, research and development.In this paper, This review summarizes the current clinical and research work of routine blood collection and preservation methods effecting on blood RNA degradation and solution for avoiding these degrading which can help testing changings of blood biomarker more accurately .

ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the influence of triglyceride(TG),hemoglobin(HGB),total bilirubin(TBIL)and rheumatoid factor(RF)on the results of two kinds of D-dimer detection reagent assay.Methods Five samples were prepared into series with 2,4,6,8 and 10 mmol/L triglyceride by adding fat emulsion.Five samples were prepared into series with 1,2,3,4 and 5 g/L of hemolysis degree by adding hemoglobin solution.Five samples were prepared into series with 20,40,60,80 and 100μmol/L total bilirubin by adding bilirubin standard preparation.Ten samples were prepared into rheumatoid factor levels be-tween 0~150 IU/L by adding rheumatoid factor standard solution.Simultaneously with D-dimer detection reagent and D-di-mer HS detection reagent for testing,each sample was measured two times and the results averaged.Results When TG≤2 mmol/L,the D-dimer reagents without interference,and TG≥4 mmol/L,the D-dimer reagents due to “SD baseline data out of range”couldn’t be detected.TG≤10 mmol/L,for D-dimer HS reagents was without interference.When HGB≥1 g/L, the D-dimer reagents due to“SD baseline data out of range”couldn’t be detected.HGB≤4 g/L,for D-dimer HS reagents was without interference.When hemoglobin levels was equal to 5 g/L,the D-dimer HS reagents test results false increased about 30.4%.With total bilirubin concentration increases,D-dimer and D-dimer HS reagents test results were false increase, showed amplitude by a power law,and the two reagents increased consistency.Preparation a series of pooled plasma of rheu-matoid factor levels in 0~150 IU/L,D-dimer test results reagent falsely elevated levels of rheumatoid factor with a linear correlation (Y=59.31X+50.43,R2=0.998).When RF≤150 IU/L,the D-dimer HS reagents was without interference. Conclusion Triglyceride,hemoglobin,total bilirubin and rheumatoid factor may interfere D-dimer testing process,icterus and severe hemolysis will interfere D-dimer HS testing process.D-dimer HS reagents against interfere exceed D-dimer rea-gents.When D-dimer test results does not match with clinicians determine,the influence ofinterfering substances should be considered.

ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the difference of four calculating methods used to determine the obesity. Methods Two thousand four hundred and forty six (2446) men and three hundred and seventy nine (379) women were measured height and body mass, Standard body mass, BMI, body fat ratio and obesity index(OI) were calculated with formula. According to the BMI≥ 25 kg/m2 , BMI ≥ 27 kg/m2 and BMI≥28 kg/m2, the obese adults were 1419,680 and 435 respectively;there were 649 adults that their body mass was over 20％standard body mass; there were 639 adults that their body fat ratio was over 25％(male)and 33％(female). Results For obesity determination, the adults who were 20％overweight and over standard body fat ratio were significantly different from those whose BMI were over 25 kg/m2 ( P＜0. 05 ) ;Those who were 20％overweight and over standard body fat ratio were not significantly different from those whose BMI were over 27 kg/m2 ( P＞0.05 ) ; Those who were 20％overweight and over standard body fat ratio were significantly different from those whose BMI were over 28 kg/m2 ( P＜0. 05 ). Conclusion Determining obesity with BMI≥27 kg/m2 is feasible and rational.
