ABSTRACT

AIM:To analyze the correlation between serum nesfatin-1, apelin and heme oxygenase-1(HO-1)levels and the severity of diabetic retinopathy(DR).METHODS:Totally 100 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM)who were admitted to the hospital from September 2020 to September 2022 were selected. They were divided into non-DR(NDR)group(35 cases), nonproliferative DR(NPDR)group(33 cases)and proliferative DR(PDR)group(32 cases)according to the condition of fundus lesions. Another 30 healthy individuals who received health check-ups in the hospital during the same period were selected as the control group. Serum nesfatin-1, apelin and HO-1 levels in each group were detected, and panretinal ischemia index(ISI)was evaluated.RESULTS:Serum nesfatin-1 and HO-1 levels in the T2DM patients were lower, and apelin level was higher as compared with the control group. The levels of nesfatin-1 and HO-1 in the PDR group were the lowest, while the apelin level was the highest. Panretinal ISI in the PDR group was higher than that in the NPDR group(4.56±0.57 vs. 2.05±0.29, P<0.05). Correlation analysis found that serum nesfatin-1 and HO-1 levels were negatively correlated with panretinal ISI in patients with DR, while apelin level was positively correlated with panretinal ISI. The receiver operator characteristic(ROC)curve analysis found that the areas under the curves of serum nesfatin-1, apelin and HO-1 for predicting PDR were 0.842, 0.833 and 0.807 respectively.CONCLUSION:Serum nesfatin-1, apelin and HO-1 levels are closely related to the severity of DR. Dynamic monitoring of serum nesfatin-1, apelin and HO-1 levels is important for the early detection of PDR.

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To analyze the relevant studies on blood donor cohort and explore the current research status, research hotspots and development trends of blood donor cohort studies abroad. 【Methods】 Based on the Web of Science Core Collection, the literature related to blood donor cohort was searched. After screening and data processing, bibliometric analysis was carried out from the volume of literature trends, disciplines, authors, institutional distribution and other aspects of the included literature. At the same time, CiteSpace 5.6R5 software was used to carry out visual analysis of countries/regions, literature co-citation, keyword co-occurrence, keyword clustering and keyword emergence. Results A total of 672 papers (654 research papers, 18 review papers) were included. The total number of papers published in the field of blood donor cohort study showed a steady upward trend since 1991, the fastest growth was between 2019 and 2020. The top three cited authors were Kaaks R (1 301 citations), Rinaldi S (1 186 citations) and Riboli E (1 130 citations); the top three institutions were RLUK library in the UK, the University of California and the University of Copenhagen; the top three countries/regions in the volume of literature were the United States (176 papers), Germany (64 papers) and France (54 papers), and they all co-operated closely with other countries. The top five keywords were "blood donor" , "prevalence" , "infection" , "risk" and "antibody" . A total of 19 clusters were obtained by keyword cluster analysis, it was reflected in the immune mechanism and prevalence of blood-borne diseases, the relationship between blood donation behavior and non-communicable disease and its influencing factors, and the classification of the characteristics of blood donors. "Non-hepatitis B" was the keyword with the greatest burst intensity. The keywords that have burst out in recent years and continue to this day include "donation" , "seroprev-alence" , "donor" and "management" . Conclusion At present, the cohort study of blood donors has been paid more and more attention in the world, and its research trends mainly focus on the study of transfusion-transmitted disease risk. However, more researches begin to pay attention to the health problems and influencing factors of blood donors or recipients, which provides the research ideas and directions for establishing cohort study among blood donors in China.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVES@#To explore the etiology composition and outcomes of pediatric chronic critical illness (PCCI) in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU).@*METHODS@#The children who were hospitalized in the PICU of Dongguan Children's Hospital Affiliated to Guangdong Medical University and met the diagnostic criteria for PCCI from January 2017 to December 2022 were included in the study. The etiology of the children was classified based on their medical records and discharge diagnoses. Relevant clinical data during hospitalization were collected and analyzed.@*RESULTS@#Among the 3 955 hospitalized children in the PICU from January 2017 to December 2022, 321 cases (8.12%) met the diagnostic criteria for PCCI. Among the 321 cases, the most common etiology was infection (71.3%, 229 cases), followed by unintentional injury (12.8%, 41 cases), postoperation (5.9%, 19 cases), tumors/immune system diseases (5.0%, 16 cases), and genetic and chromosomal diseases (5.0%, 16 cases). Among the 321 cases, 249 cases (77.6%) were discharged after improvement, 37 cases (11.5%) were discharged at the request of the family, and 35 cases (10.9%) died in the hospital. Among the deaths, infection accounted for 74% (26/35), unintentional injury accounted for 17% (6/35), tumors/immune system diseases accounted for 6% (2/35), and genetic and chromosomal diseases accounted for 3% (1/35). From 2017 to 2022, the proportion of PCCI in PICU diseases showed an increasing trend year by year (P<0.05). Among the 321 children with PCCI, there were 148 infants and young children (46.1%), 57 preschool children (17.8%), 54 school-aged children (16.8%), and 62 adolescents (19.3%), with the highest proportion in the infant and young children group (P<0.05). The in-hospital mortality rates of the four age groups were 14.9% (22/148), 8.8% (5/57), 5.6% (3/54), and 8.1% (5/62), respectively. The infant and young children group had the highest mortality rate, but there was no statistically significant difference among the four groups (P>0.05).@*CONCLUSIONS@#The proportion of PCCI in PICU diseases is increasing, and the main causes are infection and unintentional injury. The most common cause of death in children with PCCI is infection. The PCCI patient population is mainly infants and young children, and the in-hospital mortality rate of infant and young children with PCCI is relatively high.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To analyze the correlation between loss of smell/taste and the number of real confirmed cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) worldwide based on Google Trends data, and to explore the guiding role of smell/taste loss for the COVID-19 prevention and control. Methods: "Loss of smell" and "loss of taste" related keywords were searched in the Google Trends platform, the data were obtained from Jan. 1 2019 to Jul. 11 2021. The daily and newly confirmed COVID-19 case number were collected from World Health Organization (WHO) since Dec. 30 2019. All data were statistically analyzed by SPSS 23.0 software. The correlation was finally tested by Spearman correlation analysis. Results: A total of data from 80 weeks were collected. The retrospective analysis was performed on the new trend of COVID-19 confirmed cases in a total of 186 292 441 cases worldwide. Since the epidemic of COVID-19 was recorded on the WHO website, the relative searches related to loss of smell/taste in the Google Trends platform had been increasing globally. The global relative search volumes of "loss of smell" and "loss of taste" on Google Trends was 10.23±2.58 and 16.33±2.47 before the record of epidemic while 80.25±39.81 and 80.45±40.04 after (t value was 8.67, 14.43, respectively, both P<0.001). In the United States and India, the relative searches for "loss of smell" and "loss of taste" after the record of epidemic were also much higher than before (all P<0.001). The correlation coefficients between the trend of weekly new COVID-19 cases and the Google Trends of "loss of smell" in the global, United States, and India was 0.53, 0.76, and 0.82 respectively (all P<0.001), the correlation coefficients with Google Trends of "loss of taste" was 0.54, 0.78, and 0.82 respectively (all P<0.001). The lowest and highest point of loss of smell/taste search curves of Google Trends in different periods appeared 7 to 14 days earlier than that of the weekly newly COVID-19 confirmed cases curves, respectively. Conclusions: There is a significant positive correlation between the number of newly confirmed cases of COVID-19 worldwide and the amount of keywords, such as "loss of smell" and "loss of taste", retrieved in Google Trends. The trend of big data based on Google Trends might predict the outbreak trend of COVID-19 in advance.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the quality management strategy of clinical blood utilization by analyzing the quality control indexes of clinical blood transfusion in Hubei province from 2018 to 2020.Methods:The quality control indexes of clinical blood utilization in 244 secondary or above hospitals in Hubei province from 2018 to 2020 were investigated, including the number of professional and technical personnel per thousand units of blood transfusion, the internal quality control rate of blood transfusion compatibility test, the participation rate of external quality evaluation in blood transfusion compatibility test, the per capita blood consumption of discharged patients, and the development rate of autologous blood transfusion for patients undergoing surgery, and the differences of each index were compared and analyzed.Results:The indexes in Hubei province showed an increasing trend from 2018 to 2020, but there was no significant difference( P>0.05). The distribution of each index in Hubei province was unbalanced( P<0.05). The average blood consumption of discharged patients(0.13±0.14 U), the internal quality control rate of blood transfusion compatibility test(84.92%), the participation rate of external quality evaluation of blood transfusion compatibility test(93.65%) and the development rate of autologous blood transfusion(55.56%) in the tertiary hospitals were significantly higher than those in the secondary hospitals(0.09±0.10 U, 43.22%, 55.08%, 29.66%), while the number of professional and technical personnel of blood transfusion in thousand units(1.34±1.43) in the tertiary hospitals was significantly lower than that in secondary hospitals(2.41±2.39)( P<0.05). The average blood consumption of discharged patients(0.12±0.11 U), the participation rate of external quality evaluation of blood transfusion compatibility(82.18%) and the development rate of autologous blood transfusion(62.64%) in general hospitals were significantly higher than those in specialized hospitals(0.08±0.13 U, 68.57%, 27.14%), while the number of professional and technical personnel in thousand units of blood transfusion(1.44±1.60) was significantly lower than that in specialized hospitals(2.88±2.53)( P<0.05). The internal quality control rate(73.73%), the participation rate of external quality evaluation(87.10%) and the development rate of autologous blood transfusion(52.07%) in public hospitals were significantly higher than those in private hospitals(29.63%, 51.85%, 25.93%), however, the number of professional and technical personnel in blood transfusion(1.70±1.98) was lower than that in private hospitals(3.95±3.21)( P<0.05). Conclusions:The overall quality of clinical blood utilization in Hubei has been steadily increasing. However, the quality of clinical blood was not balanced among different areas. The overall clinical blood utilization quality of tertiary hospitals was significantly higher than the secondary hospitals, the general hospitals was significantly higher than the specialized hospitals, and the public hospitals was significantly higher than the private hospitals. The professional and technical personnel of blood transfusion in tertiary, general and public hospitals need to be strengthened.

ABSTRACT

Objective:Phthalates (PAEs) are common environmental endocrine disruptors. In this study, the effects of oxidative stress on liver and nutrient metabolism were determined in male diabetic rats exposed to di-2-ethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP), and the mechanism of DEHP toxicity was explored. Methods:Thirty-two SPF male Wistar rats aged five weeks, weighing 150-170 g, were fed adaptively for one week to establish the model of type 2 diabetes. The model was established by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ) (25 mg/kg) after feeding with high sugar and high fat diet for four weeks. Second STZ injection was given two days later. The model was considered to be established successfully when the random blood glucose level was found to be higher than 16.7 mmol/L in two separate tests. Twenty diabetic rats were then randomly divided into four groups, including control group (corn oil), 100, 300 and 900 mg/kg DEHP groups. The rats were treated with DEHP by gavage (5 mL/kg) once a day for 30 days. They were fed with normal diet during the treatment period. Caudal venous blood was collected on the 1st, 14th, and 28th days to measure the random blood glucose level. The changes of glucose tolerance were determined by oral glucose tolerance test on the 29th day. Fasting blood glucose (FPG) was measured on the next day of the last exposure. After the rats were anesthetized with pentobarbital and killed, the liver was weighed, the liver coefficient was calculated and the liver pathological section was made. Blood was taken from the abdominal aorta. The levels of aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), triacylglycerol (TG) and albumin (ALB) in serum were measured by spectrophotometry, and the levels of insulin, glutathione (GSH), H2O2, malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in fasting serum were measured by radioimmunoassay. Results:There was no significant difference in body weight and random blood glucose in the type 2 diabetic rats exposed to different concentrations of DEHP (all P>0.05). At each time point of the glucose tolerance curve, the blood glucose value of the exposure groups was higher than that of the control group. A "false plateau period" appeared after the blood glucose value reached or exceeded the upper limit at 15 minutes, and the blood glucose level in each group was higher than that of the control group at 120 minutes. The liver organ coefficient of 300 and 900 mg/kg DEHP groups was higher than that of the control group (both P<0.01), and the liver organ coefficient was positively correlated with the exposure concentration of DEHP (r=0.80,P<0.000 1). Under the microscope, the liver cells in diabetic rats were swollen, the cytoplasm was light stained, and there were vacuoles in the cells. The serum ALP level in diabetic rats of 900 mg/kg DEHP group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.01). The serum ALP level was positively correlated with the concentration of DEHP (r=0.75, P<0.01). The serum MDA level in diabetic rats of 300 mg/kg and 900 mg/kg DEHP groups was significantly higher than that of the control group (both P<0.01), and the serum MDA level was positively correlated with the concentration of DEHP (r=0.84, P<0.000 1). The serum SOD level of 900 mg/kg DEHP group was significantly higher than that of control group (P<0.01). Conclusion:DEHP exposure could lead to liver damage, abnormal glycolipid metabolism, and increase the level of oxidative stress and antioxidant level in male diabetic rats, but did not show a significant effect on insulin resistance.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To compare the expression of carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) and carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) between type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and non-diabetic patients, and investigate the role of interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and high sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) in the regulation of CA19-9 and CEA.Methods:From January to December 2016, a total of 146 patients with T2DM (T2DM group) were selected in Qinhuangdao Military Hospital of Hebei Province. According to age, gender, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference and hip circumference, propensity score was matched. A total of 146 healthy control group matches were completed according to the nearest neighbor matching method of 1∶1. According to the glycated hemoglobin (HbA 1c), the patients with T2DM were divided into 4 groups: HbA 1c<7% 16 cases (A subgroup), 7% ≤ HbA 1c<9% 38 cases (B subgroup), 9% ≤ HbA 1c<11% 44 cases (C subgroup), HbA 1c ≥ 11% 48 cases (D subgroup). The mediating effects of IL-6, TNF-α and hs-CRP in CA19-9 and CEA levels in patients with T2DM were determined by stepwise linear regression. Results:The fasting plasma glucose (FBG), HbA 1c, IL-6, TNF-α, hs-CRP, CA19-9 and CEA in T2DM group were significantly higher than those in control group: (9.95 ± 2.98) mmol/L vs. (4.89 ± 0.77) mmol/L, (9.85 ± 2.18)% vs. (5.71 ± 1.91)%, (46.51 ± 13.17) ng/L vs. (32.41 ± 13.74) ng/L, (45.41 ± 17.25) ng/L vs. (21.54 ± 15.01) ng/L, (4.99 ± 3.51) mg/L vs. (3.19 ± 3.15) mg/L, (13.35 ± 5.34) U/L vs. (8.58 ± 1.08) U/L and (2.51 ± 1.04) μg/L vs. (2.14 ± 1.01) μg/L, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). There were no statistical differences in gender composition, waist circumference, hip circumference, disease course and FBG among A subgroup, B subgroup, C subgroup and D subgroup ( P>0.05). There were statistical differences in the age, BMI, IL-6, TNF-α, hs-CRP, CA19-9 and CEA among 4 subgroups ( P<0.01 or <0.05). In patients with T2DM, the HbA 1c was positively correlated with IL-6, TNF-α, hs-CRP, CA19-9 and CEA ( r=0.863, 0.802, 0.495, 0.883 and 0.766; P<0.01). The IL-6, TNF-α and hs-CRP had some mediating effects in HbA 1c regulation of CA19-9: 20.5% (0.181/0.883), 17.8% (0.157/0.883) and 8.2% (0.072/0.883), respectively; the TNF-α had some mediating effect in HbA 1c regulation of CEA: 24.0% (0.184/0.766). Conclusions:There is a correlation between the levels of tumor markers and blood glucose in patients with T2DM, and inflammatory response is a potential regulatory variable.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the difference of brain activity intensity between abstinent methamphetamine-dependent (AMD) patients and healthy controls using amplitude of low-frequency fluctuation (ALFF).Methods:From April 2016 to March 2017, 29 male AMD patients from Pingtang compulsory rehabilitation center in Changsha City, Hunan Province and 31 healthy male controls were prospectively recruited. The general conditions of all AMD patients, including age of first use of MA, months of MA use, monthly MA consumption, MA use frequency of the last year and the last month, current months of drug withdrawal, times of drug withdrawal, self-assessment score of drug craving when taking drugs, smoking history (whether smoking and smoking years), drinking history (whether drinking and drinking years). The rest functional MRI data were collected. DPABI software package was used to preprocess the data and calculate ALFF value of each voxel in the whole brain of the subjects of two groups. Two samples t-test and alphasim multiple comparison correction were used. Nuclei with voxel level P<0.01 and voxel number>71 were considered as regions with significant differences between two groups, corresponding to corrected P<0.05. ALFF mean value was extracted for each region with significant differences. Taking smoking and drinking as covariates, the correlations between the mean ALFF values of regions with significant differences and MA use and abstinence were analyzed. Results:Compared with the healthy control group, it was found in the AMD group that ALFF value of left middle frontal gyrus was significantly lower ( t=-4.707), and that of right inferior frontal gyrus was significantly higher ( t=4.445). The results of correlation analysis showed that the ALFF value of right inferior frontal gyrus was negatively correlated with the frequency of MA use and the MA amounts used in the last month ( r=-0.396, P=0.034; r=-0.429, P=0.020). Conclusions:Abnormal brain activity intensity is found in AMD patients compared with healthy controls, with abnormalities mainly found in the prefrontal lobe, which is involved in cognitive, executive and emotion functions. The more MA is used, the more damages or alterations may exist in these regions.

ABSTRACT

In this study, the growth index including plant height, compound leaf area, specific leaf area, leaf water content, number of branches, and leaf biomass per plant and the icariin flavonoids such as epimedin A, epimedin B, epimedin C and icariin of Epimedium pseudowushanense were determined on 30 d and 60 d under light intensity(18.2±2.5) μmol·m~(-2)·s~(-1)(L1) and(90.9 ±2.5) μmol·m~(-2)·s~(-1)(L2), and white light as control, red light, blue light and yellow light were used as three light quality treatments, to study the effect of light quality on the growth and flavonoids accumulation of E. pseudowushanense. The E. pseudowushanense was sui-table for growth under L1 light intensity, the blue light treatment significantly reduced the leaf area, but had little effect on the stem height, the red light treatment and the yellow light treatment had no obvious effect on the stem height and leaf area, but the yellow light treatment significantly increased the germination of new branches, and had a sustained promoting effect, and the biomass was significantly higher than the white light treatment at 60 d. The content of icariin flavonoids in red light, blue light and yellow light treatment was higher than that in white light treatment at 30 d and 60 d under L1 light intensity, while yellow light treatment promoted the synthesis of icariin flavonoids to the largest extent, which was 1.8 and 1.9 times of white light treatment(30 d and 60 d).Under L2 light intensity, the effect of strong light on promoting stem germination became the main factor, while the yellow light treatment showed no significant effect on promoting stem germination, and the red light treatment exhibited a significant effect on reducing leaf area. Icariin flavonoids under red light, blue light and yellow light treatment were all lower than that under white light treatment, that is, the effect of white light treatment on the synthesis of icariin flavonoids is better than red light, blue light and yellow light treatment. When the time of strong light treatment was longer, the degradation range of icariin flavonoids in other light treatment appeared, while red light treatment promotes the synthesis of icariin flavonoids. Therefore, the influence of light quality on E. pseudowushanense is quite different under different light intensity, no matter from growth index or flavonoid content index. The results support that the biomass and icariin flavonoid content can be increased by providing appropriate red and yellow light.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the hemodynamic monitoring and clinical significance of transcranial Doppler (TCD) combined with indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence angiography and FLOW 800 in carotid endarterectomy (CEA).Methods Forty-eight patients with extracranial carotid atherosclerotic stenosis underwent CEA in our hospital from October 2015 to September 2018 were chosen to our study. The mean blood flow velocity (Vm) of the middle cerebral artery (MCA) was monitored by TCD throughout the operation. The intraoperative blood pressures were adjusted according to the monitoring results, and the average blood Vm of the narrowed arteries was measured using TCD probe before and after artery temporary occlusion. ICG fluorescence angiography and FLOW 800 were used to monitor vascular morphology and patency simultaneously.Results One patient, who was observed to have severe stenosis by TCD, ICG fluorescence angiography, and FLOW 800 after arteries temporary occlusion, showed significantly improved by multimodal monitoring after re-suture; one patient showed external carotid artery occlusion by ICG fluorescence angiography and FLOW 800 had noexternal carotid artery occlusion; other 46 patients showed no carotid artery stenosis and good intracranial perfusion by TCD, ICG fluorescence angiography, and FLOW 800 after initial suture. Two patients developed ischemic stroke (IS) after CEA, and both of them were recovered after conservative medical treatment for two weeks without any neurological dysfunction; two patients had cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS), and both of them relieved after blood pressure control three d after treatment; one patient had subcutaneous hematoma in the operation area, and the hematoma was gradually absorbed after conservative treatment; the rest patients recovered well. All patients were followed up for 4-6 months after CEA, and CT angiography showed that carotid artery stenosis was relieved; CT perfusion imaging and TCD examinations showed that cerebral perfusion was significantly improved as compared with those before operation.Conclusion Intraoperative TCD combined with ICG fluorescence angiography and FLOW 800 can effectively monitor the intracranial and extracranial blood flow of intraoperative carotid artery, which is of great significance in reducing the risk of IS and CHS during carotid endarterectomy.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the changes of brain gray matter volume (GMV) and brain activity in patients with long?term methamphetamine (MA) abstinence compared with healthy controls. Methods This study included 44 abstinent MA patients and 40 demographically equivalent healthy controls. Structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and resting?state functional MRI (rs?fMRI) were obtained on Siemens 3.0 T MR. Differences in GMV between abstinent MA group and control group were assessed using voxel?based morphometry (VBM) method. Within each region showed significant differences between two groups, the value of the fractional amplitude of low frequency fluctuation (fALFF) was calculated using the rs?fMRI data. Differences of fALFF between groups were also evaluated. Furthermore, partial correlation coefficients adjusted for age, years of education, smoking and drinking were calculated in the abstinent MA group to assess associations between the mean GMV and fALFF values in significant clusters and variables of MA use and abstinence. Results Compared with controls, abstinent MA group showed increased GMV in the right cerebellum crus and decreased GMV in the right calcarine. While fALFF values within bilateral cerebellum crus in abstinent MA patients were significantly increased. Moreover, GMV of the left cerebellar crus was positively correlated with the withdrawal time among abstinent MA patients. Conclusions Both structural and functional abnormalities were found in abstinent MA patients even after long?term abstinence. The positive correlation between GMV of left cerebellum crus and abstinent duration suggested that prolonged abstinence may be beneficial to brain recovery. The fALFF of the right calcarine was increased even with decreased GVM in the abstinent MA group. It indicates that the brain activity of this area is increased, which may imply that drug cue?induced craving is significant among methamphetamine patients even after long?term abstinence.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To analyze the effect of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in the treatment of patients with recurrent refractory B cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) and the related factors affecting the prognosis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The clinical data of 47 cases of recurrent refractory B cell NHL treated in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. Survival curves were drawn by Kaplan-Meier, and survival analyses were performed. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to analyze the prognostic factors.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The complete remission rate was 51.06% before autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, but it increased to 65.96% after transplantation. The median survival time was 21 months, the 3 years progression-free survival rate was 40.43%, and the 3 years overall survival rate was 48.94%. The results of unvariate analysis showed that no using the rituximab in the first treatment and incomplete remission shown by PET/CT before transplantation all were the risk factors (P<0.05) affecting the prognosis. By multifactor analysis, it was found that the incomplete remission shown by PET/CT before transplantation was a risk factor for the prognosis(P<0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The application of autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for patients with relapsed and refractory B cell NHL can improve the clinical efficacy, and the incomplete remission shown by PET/CT before transplantation is more adverse to the patients' prognosis.</p>

ABSTRACT

Objective The color of the syphilis quality control material adopted by most detection institutes was the same with the detected serum sample and they were all colorless,transparent or light yellow.There were cases of wrong adding,missing adding or insufficient adding due to the color of quality control materials which was hard to distinguish with naked eyes.To avoid this phenomenon,a new method was established for the distinction of quality control materials.Methods A new method of syphilis quality control materials that had been improved three concentrations control materials:0.125,0.250 and 0.500 NCU/mL.The syphilis diagnostic kit that was created by Shanghai Kehua and Xiamen Yingke was adopted to conduct detection and compare results.Results The difference between stained quality control material and unstained quality control materials had no statistical significance (P>0.05).Two different reagents were used to detect quality control materials of different concentration for 20 times and the CV were 11.7 %-13.4% and 9.3 %-12.9 % respectively.Two different reagents were used to detect quality control materials of different concentration for 30 days and the CV range were 10.1 %-13.4 % and 8.08 %-12.8 %.Conclusion Citric yellow staining does not influence the properties of syphilis control materials and it can be used stably for a long time.It is suitable for clinical lab application and promotion.
