Objective To analyze the correlation between thromboelastogram indicators(R time,K time,MA value)and global registry of acute coronary events(GRACE)score and acute myocardial infarction(AMI),and explore the risk factors for the onset of AMI.Methods A total of 108 patients with AMI who were hospitalized in Xuancheng Central Hospital for the first time from September 2020 to February 2023 were selected as the observation group,while 70 patients with stable coronary heart disease were selected as the control group.The clinical basic data,thromboelastogram indicators,GRACE score,and homocysteine(Hcy)of all study subjects were collected.The differences of clinical basic data,thromboelastogram indica-tors,GEACE score,and Hcy level between the observation group and the control group were statistically ana-lyzed.The predictive value of thromboelastogram indicators,GRACE score,and Hcy level for the occurrence of AMI was evaluated by using the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Binary Logistic regression model was used to conduct univariate and multivariate regression analyses on indicators with statistically sig-nificant differences,in order to determine the independent risk factors for AMI occurrence.Results There were significant differences of R time,K time,MA value,GRACE score,serum Hcy level,and the proportion of underlying diseases between the observation group and the control group(P＜0.05).The ROC curve re-sults showed that R time,K time,MA value,GRACE score,and Hcy had good predictive value for the occur-rence of different types of AMI,and the value of the combined application was higher.Univariate Logistic re-gression showed that MA value,GRACE score,Hcy level,and underlying disease were positively correlated with the occurrence of AMI(P＜0.05),while R time and K time were negatively correlated with the occur-rence of AMI(P＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regression showed that high GRACE score and elevated Hcy level were independent risk factors for the occurrence of AMI(P＜0.05),while R time and K time were inde-pendent protective factors for the occurrence of AMI(P＜0.05).Conclusion Thromboelastogram,Hcy,and GRACE score could be used as dynamic monitoring indicators for clinical risk assessment of AMI in acute cor-onary syndrome population.

Objective To explore the risk factors of clopidogrel resistance (CR) in the elderly patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease and to provide evidence for the antiplatelet therapy. Methods A total of 223 elderly patients (≥80 years old) with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease treated in the Department of Geriatrics in the Peking University People's Hospital from January 18,2013 to November 30,2019 and meeting the inclusion criteria were enrolled in this study.The clinical data and laboratory test results were collected,including clinical disease,drug use,physical examination,complete blood cell analysis,biochemical indicators,and thromboelastogram (TEG).The rate of platelet inhibition induced by adenosine diphosphate was calculated according to the TEG.We assigned the patients into a CR group (n=84) and a control group (n=139) to analyze the incidence and influence factors of CR in the elderly patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Results The incidence of CR was 37.7% in the elderly patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.The CR group had lower hemoglobin (t=3.533,P=0.001) and higher hypertension prevalence rate (χ2=6.581,P=0.006),proportion of multiple drugs (χ2=3.332,P=0.048),body mass index (BMI) (t=-2.181,P=0.030),total cholesterol (t=-2.264,P=0.025),triglycerides (Z=-2.937,P=0.003),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (t=-2.347,P=0.020),and proportion of women (χ2=5.562,P=0.014) than the control group.The results of multivariate Logistic regression showed that hemoglobin (OR=0.962,P<0.001),BMI (OR=1.154,P=0.003),and LDL-C (OR=1.688,P=0.018) were the factors influencing CR in the elderly patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Conclusion Hemoglobin,BMI,and LDL-C may be independent factors associated with the occurrence of CR in the elderly patients with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of thromboelastogram in early diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients undergoing free flap surgery of lower extremity.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the 192 patients undergoing surgical repair of soft tissue defects at lower extremity with free anterolateral femoral flap at Department of Orthopaedics, Tongji Hospital from January 2018 to June 2022. There were 117 males and 75 females, with an age of (45.6±12.7) years and an area of skin defects ranging from 5 cm × 3 cm to 18 cm × 9 cm. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to whether DVT occurred on the first day after surgery. In the DVT group of 22 patients, there were 14 males and 8 females, with an age of (47.7±14.3) years; in the DVT-free group of 170 patients, there were 103 males and 67 females, with an age of (45.3±12.5) years. The 2 groups were compared in terms of reaction time, coagulation time, maximum amplitude and coagulation angle in the thromboelastogram. Diagram of receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves was used to evaluate the predictive value of thromboelastography in assessing the risk of DVT after surgery.Results:The 2 groups were comparable because there was no significant difference in the baseline information or operation time between them ( P>0.05). The reaction time [(5.21±0.85) min] and coagulation time [(1.12±0.30) min] in the DVT group were significantly shorter than those in the DVT-free group [(6.48±0.06) min and (1.60±0.03) min], and the maximum amplitude [(71.45±1.17) mm] and coagulation angle [69.54° (64.59°, 76.64°) ] in the DVT group were significantly larger than those in the DVT-free group [(66.63±0.40) mm and 64.92°(54.11°, 74.21°)] (all P<0.05). The optimal cut-off points in the ROC diagram were 5.46 min at reaction time, 1.52 min at coagulation time, 72.31 mm at maximum amplitude and 59.89° at coagulation angle. The sensitivity and specificity of detecting DVT on the first day after surgery were 80.7% and 71.6%, respectively, according to the combination of the best cut-off points in the ROC diagram and all the indexes in the thromboelastogram. Conclusion:Thromboelastogram is of a great value for the diagnosis of lower extremity DVT, and of a positive significance for the prevention of serious complications after surgery in patients undergoing free flap surgery of lower extremity.

Resumen: La frecuencia de eventos tromboembólicos de pacientes con enfermedad por coronavirus es alta, sin embargo aún se desconoce cuál es la manera adecuada de identificar a las personas con mayor riesgo de complicaciones trombóticas y definir quiénes pueden beneficiarse de un tratamiento más agresivo, más allá de la tromboprofilaxis estándar. Una gran proporción de pacientes en estado crítico con coronavirus tienen perfil de tromboelastografía hipercoagulable con daño relacionado a fibrinógeno y a la función plaquetaria, la mayoría de pacientes tiene una máxima amplitud elevada en la tromboelastografía. Se hizo una revisión de tromboelastogramas de 11 pacientes en estado crítico por SARS-CoV-2 para caracterizar su estado de coagulación. Se encontró 36.36% de hipercoagulabilidad en la tromboelastografía principalmente con citrato nativo a pesar del tratamiento con heparina de bajo peso molecular a dosis terapéutica. El perfil predominante hipercoagulable no se asoció a la función plaquetaria, ya que la MA (máxima amplitud) se mantuvo dentro de los límites normales.
Abstract: The frequency of thromboembolic events in patients with coronavirus disease is high, however it is still unknown what is the appropriate way to identify people at higher risk of thrombotic complications and define who can benefit from a more aggressive treatment, beyond the standard thromboprophylaxis. A large proportion of critically ill patients with coronavirus have a hypercoagulable thromboelastography profile with damage related to fibrinogen and platelet function; most patients have a high maximum amplitude on thromboelastography. A review of thromboelastograms of 11 critically ill patients due to SARS-CoV-2 was made to characterize their coagulation status. A 36.36% hypercoagulability was found in thromboelastography, mainly with native citrate, despite treatment with low molecular weight heparin at therapeutic doses. The predominant hypercoagulable profile was not associated with platelet function since the MA (maximum amplitude) remained within normal limits.

【Objective】 To determine the reference range of thromboelastogram(TEG) and establish a TEG feature for local population by measuring TEG parameters in healthy adults in Shenzhen comparing the difference between gender and age, and analyzing the reference data provided by reagent manufacturer. 【Methods】 A total of 916 healthy adults, aged between 19 to 59, who did their regular health checks in our hospital from September 2020 to August 2021 were selected. The TEG(from Lepu Medical Technology Co., Ltd.) was performed, and the clot reaction time(R), clot formation time(K), coagulation angle(α-Angle), maximum amplitude(MA), coagulation index(CI), fibrinolysis index LY30 and the estimated percent lysis (EPL) were analyzed. 【Results】 The reference ranges of TEG parameters, including R, K, α-Angle, MA, CI, LY30 and EPL, of 916 healthy adults from Shenzhen were 3.25~8.19 min, 0.66~3.18min, 47.70~76.56deg, 50.05~72.91mm, -4.3~3.4, 0~2.2% and 0~3%, respectively. The value of α-Angle, CI, K, LY30, MA and R didn’t all meet the given range provided by the manufacturer; some were exceeding and some inferior to. A total of 227 out of 916 individuals presented abnormal results, relative to the references, in at least one parameter, and 78 were diagnosed of abnormal coagulation based on the given reference range, with a specificity of 75.2%. 【Conclusion】 The reference range of TEG parameters of Shenzhen locals is significantly different from that provided by manufacturers. And it is imperative for local TEG laboratories to establish their own reference ranges according to age and gender groups based on local population characteristics.

Objective:To compare the value of difference between thromboelastogram (TEG), coagulation function and mean platelet volume (MPV)/platelet count (PLT) ratio in sepsis patients with short-term prognosis.Methods:A total of 271 patients with sepsis admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from January 2020 to September 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical data of the patients were recorded, and the SOFA score and APACHE Ⅱ score were calculated. The patients were followed up within 28 days and were divided into the survival group and death group. The TEG, coagulation function and MPV/PLT ratio were compared between the two groups. The independent prognostic factors of Angle, CI, AT-Ⅲ, D-Di and MPV/PLT ratio were confirmed by Logistic regression analysis. The combination of Angle + CI + AT-Ⅲ + D-Di +MPV/PLT ratio was established, and the ROC curve was drawn to evaluate the prognostic value of Angle, CI, AT-Ⅲ and D-Di combined with MPV/PLT ratio in patients with sepsis.Results:The mortality rate of patients with sepsis was 42.4%. The D-Di and MPV/PLT ratio of the death group were significantly higher than those of the survival group, and the differences were statistically significant. Angle, CI and AT-III in the death group were significantly lower than those in the survival group, and the differences were statistically significant. Logistic regression analysis showed that Angle, CI, AT-Ⅲ, D-Di and MPV/PLT ratio were independent predictors of the prognosis of patients with sepsis (all P < 0.05) . The area under the curve of the combined detection of Angle, CI, AT-Ⅲ, D-DI and MPV/PLT ratio to evaluate the prognosis of sepsis at 28 days was 0.931, which was larger than that of Angle, CI, AT-Ⅲ, D-Di and MPV/PLT ratio alone (0.755, 0.790, 0.776, 0.729 and 0.746). The sensitivity and specificity of the combination of Angle, CI, AT-Ⅲ, D-Di and MPV/PLT ratio were 83.5% and 91.0%, which were also higher than those of the single index . Conclusions:Angle, CI, AT-Ⅲ, D-Di and MPV/PLT ratio are independent prognostic predictors of patients with sepsis. The combination of Angle, CI, AT-Ⅲ, D-Di and MPV/PLT ratio has high sensitivity and specificity in evaluating the prognosis of sepsis.

Resumen: Introducción: La enfermedad por coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) es una enfermedad viral causada por el síndrome agudo respiratorio severo coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). El riesgo de eventos trombóticos venosos (ETV), que aumenta en pacientes críticamente enfermos, probablemente sea aún mayor en aquéllos con SARS-CoV-2 y enfermedad crítica. Objetivos: Investigar el perfil hemostático mediante tromboelastograma (TEG) en pacientes con neumonía por COVID-19. Material y métodos: Estudio observacional, retrospectivo de un solo centro hospitalario. Se inscribieron retrospectivamente pacientes hospitalizados con diagnóstico de neumonía por COVID-19, se les realizó TEG a las 24 y 72 horas. Se realizó un análisis bivariado, para las variables cuantitativas continuas y discretas se emplearon las pruebas t de Student o U de Mann-Whitney. Para las variables categóricas y nominales se empleó la prueba de χ2 de Pearson. Además, se realizó una curva ROC (característica de funcionamiento del receptor) para determinar el punto de corte del índice de masa corporal (IMC) con mayor sensibilidad y especificidad con relación al desarrollo de alteraciones en el TEG. Después se realizó un análisis multivariado de regresión binaria logística, ajustado para las variables con significancia clínica y estadística. La significancia estadística se estableció como una p < 0.05 o < 5%. Resultados: Se incluyó un total de 66 pacientes, se observó un predominio del perfil hipercoagulable en 28 pacientes (42.4%) a las 24 horas y 20 (30.3%) a las 72 horas a pesar de dosis profiláctica de enoxaparina. Para determinar el punto de corte con mayor asociación entre el IMC y la presencia de trastorno en el TEG, se realizó una curva ROC, obteniendo un ABC de 64.7% (p = 0.003). Encontramos un odds ratio (OR) 1.8 por cada kilogramo de peso por arriba de un IMC > 26.2 kg/m2, para desarrollar hipercoagulabilidad. Conclusión: El alto porcentaje de pacientes con estado hipercoagulable e hiperfibrinogenemia podría condicionar un aumento de la formación y polimerización de fibrina que puede predisponer a la trombosis. La mayoría de la población en nuestro medio cuenta con sobrepeso u obesidad, por lo que probablemente tengan necesidad de un régimen más alto de anticoagulación. Dicho esquema de tromboprofilaxis no debe ser guiado por parámetros como dímero D, sino con una prueba más amplia del perfil hemostático como el TEG.
Abstract: Introduction: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a viral disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The risk of venous thrombotic events (VTE), which is increased in critically ill patients, is likely to be even higher in those with SARS-CoV-2 and critical illness. Objectives: To investigate the haemostatic profile by TEG in patients with COVID-19 pneumonia. Material and methods: Observational, retrospective study of a single hospital centre. Patients hospitalised with a diagnosis of COVID-19 pneumonia were retrospectively enrolled and underwent thromboelastogram (TEG) at 24 and 72 hours. Bivariate analysis was performed, in which Student's t-tests or Mann-Whitney U-tests were used for continuous and discrete quantitative variables. For categorical and nominal variables, Pearson's χ2 test was used. In addition, a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was performed to determine the body mass index (BMI) cut-off point with the highest sensitivity and specificity in relation to the development of TEG alterations. Subsequently, a multivariate logistic binary regression analysis was performed, adjusted for variables with clinical and statistical significance. Statistical significance was established as a p < 0.05 or < 5%. Results: A total of 66 patients were included, a predominance of hypercoagulable profile was observed in 28 patients (42.4%) at 24 hours and 20 (30.3%) at 72 hours despite prophylactic doses of enoxaparin. To determine the cut-off point with the strongest association between BMI and the presence of TEG disorder, a ROC curve was performed, yielding an ABC of 64.7% (p = 0.003). We found an odds ratio (OR) of 1.8 for each kilogram of weight above a BMI > 26.2 kg/m2, for developing hypercoagulability. Conclusion: The high percentage of patients with hypercoagulable status and hyperfibrinogenemia could lead to an increase in fibrin formation and polymerisation that may predispose to thrombosis. The majority of the population in our setting is overweight or obese and therefore probably requires a higher anticoagulation regimen. Such a thromboprophylaxis scheme should not be guided by parameters such as dimer D but by a broader haemostatic profile test such as TEG.

Conclusão: O alto percentual de pacientes com estado de hipercoagulabilidade e hiperfibrinogenemia pode condicionar um aumento na formação e polimerização de fibrina que pode predispor à trombose. A maioria da população em nosso meio está acima do peso ou obesa, então eles provavelmente precisam de um regime de anticoagulação mais alto. Esse esquema de tromboprofilaxia não deve ser guiado por parâmetros como o D-dímero, mas sim com um teste mais amplo do perfil hemostático como o TEG.

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of baseline thromboelastogram as a predictor of early neurological deterioration in patients with acute ischemic stroke.Methods:The clinical data of 219 patients with acute ischemic stroke with onset time < 24 hours and National Institute Health of Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score < 16 points who received treatment in Yuncheng Central Hospital, China between January 2015 and January 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. These patients were divided into groups A (with early neurological deterioration, n = 68) and B (without early neurological deterioration, n = 151). Baseline data and thromboelastogram indices were compared between the two groups. Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of early neurological deterioration in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Results:The proportion of male patients and the proportion of smokers in the group A were 58.82% and 20.59%, respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the group B (80.79%, 38.41%, χ2 = 11.40, 4.45, both P < 0.05). The proportion of patients with acute ischemic stroke complicated by diabetes mellitus, baseline National Institute Health of Stroke Scale score and serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein level in the group A were 41.18%, (5.23 ± 1.90) points and (4.62 ± 0.72) mg/L, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in the group B [19.21%, (2.40 ± 1.35) points, (1.70 ± 0.49) mg/L, χ2 = 5.89, t = 2.26, 3.27, all P < 0.05)]. Coagulation reaction time and clotting time in the group A were (4.10 ± 1.08) minutes and (1.33 ± 0.30) minutes, respectively, which were significantly shorter than those in the group B [(4.41 ± 1.35) minutes, (1.56 ± 0.42) minutes, t = -3.72, -3.30, both P < 0.05). The proportion of patients with shortened coagulation reaction time and the proportion of patients with shortened clotting time in the group A were 82.35% and 22.06%, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in the group B (58.28%, 7.95%, χ2 = 5.86, 4.55, both P < 0.05). Logistic regression model analysis showed that shortening of coagulation reaction time is an independent risk factor of early neurological deterioration ( OR = 1.82, P < 0.05). Diabetes mellitus, baseline National Institute Health of Stroke Scale score and serum high-sensitivity C-reactive protein level were also associated with the occurrence of early neurological deterioration in acute ischemic stroke ( OR = 2.95, 1.38, 1.61, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:Shortening of coagulation reaction time can be used as a predictor of early neurological deterioration in mild and moderate acute ischemic stroke. Clinicians can evaluate the course of the disease and give targeted interventions according to early neurological deterioration, so as to further improve the clinical prognosis.

【Objective】 To investigate the effects of tranexamic acid(TXA) on intraoperative blood transfusion(volume) and postoperative coagulation function in patients with partial hepatectomy for hepatic hydatid disease in high altitude area(altitude ≥2 500 m). 【Methods】 Forty-four patients [(39.09±14.70) years old, 19 males and 25 females] underwent elective partial hepatectomy for hydatid after general anesthesia from October 2018 to December 2019 in the Department of Hydatid of Qinghai Provincial People's Hospital, with ASA gradeⅠ~Ⅲ, Child Pugh grade A~B, and normal preoperative coagulation function. They were randomly divided into TXA injection group, who received intravenous injection of TXA 10 mg/(kg·person)(30 min before surgery), and control group, given a placebo needed the equal amounts of injected 0.9% sodium chloride(30 min before surgery). 3 mL of arterial blood was extracted from each patient before intravenous injection and at the end of operation for TEG detection. The intraoperative blood loss and transfusion volume as well as Plt, Hb and TEG parameters before and after surgery were compared between the two groups, and statistical analysis was performed with SPSS22.0 statistical software. 【Results】 The volume of intraoperative blood loss(mL) in TXA group and control group was 300(200, 1 000) vs 1 400(1 000, 2 100), respectively; the units of plasma transfusion(mL) 0(0, 0) vs 380(0, 575); the units of RBC suspension transfusion(mL) 0(0, 400) vs 1 200(800, 600). Preoperative TEG parameters of two groups were similar to each other(P>0.05). The postoperative R, K and Angle(°) of two groups was 8.32±2.24 vs 10.78±2.67, 2.80(2.10, 3.30) vs 3.70(3.20, 4.80) and 54.76±9.48 vs 43.70±9.02, respectively(P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 TXA can significantly improve coagulation functions, as well as effectively reduce intraoperative blood loss and intraoperative blood transfusion in patients with partial hepatic resection of hydatid hepatica in high altitude area.

【Objective】 To observe the characteristics and correlation analysis of thromboelastogram (TEG) and platelet related indexes in patients with preeclampsia in late pregnancy. 【Methods】 88 patients with preeclampsia in late pregnancy treated in the Obstetrics Department of Shanghai Ninth People′s Hospital (Northern Hospital) from June 2017 to June 2020 were selected as observation group, and 288 normal pregnant women in late pregnancy with normal prenatal examination were selected as the control. The median elbow vein blood of the two groups were sampled. The TEG and coagulation related indexes of the two groups were compared, and the relationship between TEG and coagulation related indexes in patients with preeclampsia were analyzed. 【Results】 The K, MA, TT, INR and PLT value in the observation group, relative to controls, were significantly higher (P<0.01), but Angle, PT, and APTT value were significantly lower (P<0.01). The variance K and MA were negatively correlated with PT and APTT (P<0.05), but positively correlated with TT, INR and Plt (P<0.05). Angle was positively correlated with PT and APTT (P<0.05), but negatively correlated with TT, INR and Plt(P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Routine TEG detection can effectively evaluate the coagulation state of patients with preeclampsia, who are often accompanied by coagulation dysfunction, help to guide clinical early prevention and intervention, and reduce the risk of perinatal hemorrhage and embolism diseases, which is worthy of popularizing in clinical.

【Objective】 To explore the value of thromboelastogram (TEG) in evaluating coagulation function of patients with liver cancer. 【Methods】 102 patients with liver cancer and 48 with hepatic hemangioma from Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, Nanyang Central Hospital from August 2017 to September 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. TEG indicators (R, K, Angle, MA, CI, and G value) and routine coagulation indicators (Plt, PT, INR, APTT, FIB, and TT) of those patients and basic clinical data of liver cancer patients were collected, and the difference of detection parameters between the liver cancer group and liver hemangioma group was compared; The difference of TEG parameters in liver cancer patient subgroups was compared, and the correlation between TEG and routine coagulation tests in liver cancer patients was analyzed using Spearman rank correlation analysis. The sensitivity of the two detection methods in detecting the coagulation status of patients with liver cancer was compared. 【Results】 1) Compared with patients with hepatic hemangioma, Plts decreased significantly (166.6±108.824 vs 224.10±54.933, P<0.001), while PT, INR and APTT values increased significantly (13.12±2.052 vs 11.421±0.884, 1.156±0.191 vs 1.00±0.074, 29.977±5.333 vs 26.954±5.269, all P<0.05) in patients with liver cancer; MA and G values in patients with liver cancer were lower (56.991±11.574 vs 60.069±5.094, 7.667±4.682 vs 7.725±1.709, P<0.05); 2) Compared with newly diagnosed liver cancer patients, the Plt of re-diagnosed liver cancer patients decreased significantly(125.78±79.673 vs 188.86±116.437, P<0.05); the R and K value increased significantly (7.594±2.601 vs 6.058±1.739, 3.453±2.402 vs 2.438±1.990, all P<0.05), while the Angle, MA, CI and G value decreased significantly (53.897±12.288 vs 61.495±9.949, 53.556±11.407 vs 58.865±11.313, -3.494±4.253vs -0.836±3.180, 6.311±3.209 vs 8.406±5.191, all P<0.05); 3) There were significant differences in TEG parameters (R value excluded) between liver resection, transhepatic arterial chemoembolization and conservative treatment (P<0.05); 4) The R, K value of patients with liver cancer were negatively correlated with the Plt value, while the Angle, MA, CI, and G value were positively correlated with Plt value (P<0.001); the K value was negatively correlated with the Fib value, while the Angle, MA, CI, G value were positively correlated with Fib value (P<0.001); the R and K value were positively correlated with TT value, while the Angle and CI were negatively correlated with TT value (P<0.05); 5) The detection rate of hypocoagulability by TEG and routine coagulation testing was 18.63% (19/102) and 7.84%. 【Conclusion】 Compared with the newly diagnosed liver cancer patients, re-diagnosed liver cancer patients showed hypercoagulability. TEG can diagnose the coagulation abnormalties more sensitively, and help reduce the risk of bleeding.

【Objective】 To explore the clinical value of thromboelastogram (TEG) in monitoring coagulation function in patients with COVID-19. 【Methods】 Patients diagnosed with COVID-19 in our hospital from January 20 to March 1, 2020 were enrolled and divided into mild group (mild type, common type) and severe group (severe type, critical group). The TEG, platelet count and routine blood coagulation function were compared between the two groups to analyze the coagulation characteristics of the patients. 【Results】 A total of 66 cases were studied, including severe (n=33) and mild (n=33), male(n=39)and female(n=27), hypertension (n=9) and diabetes mellitus (n=11) cases. 28 (84.8%) severe and 24 (72.7%) mild patients had at least one hypercoagulable TEG parameter. K value of TEG in the severe group was lower than that in the mild group (P<0.05), Angel and CI increased (P<0.05). The fibrinogen (Fib) and D-dimer increased in routine coagulation function test (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Patients with COVID-19 showed hypercoagulability in TEG parameter, which was related to the severity of this disease. TEG may be more valuable for COVID-19 patients with hypercoagulable status and thrombosis risk, and help to develop anticoagulation strategies.

【Objective】 To study the feasibility of whole blood thromboelastogram (WB-TEG) and its correlative kit for plasma thromboelastogram (P-TEG) detection and the characteristics of P-TEG in healthy subjects. 【Methods】 17 healthy volunteers were detected by WB-TEG instrument and its correlative kit, and the results were compared with those by P-TEG. The P-TEG characteristics of 17 healthy volunteers were analyzed. Three groups (7 cases/group)of plasma samples with different platelet (Plt) count and the other three groups of plasma(7, 6 and 4 cases, respectively) with different fibrinogen(Fib) concentration were tested for P-TEG. The effects of Plt and Fib on P-TEG detection were observed. 【Results】 There was no significant difference in R and MA value (P>0.05)as WB-TEG was compared with P-TEG in healthy subjects, while in K(min) (1.71±0.47 vs 1.07±0.45), A(°) (66.1±5.41 vs 75.59±5.77), and CI value (0.9±1.8 vs 2.52±2.58)(all P <0.05). Various parameters of healthy individuals were basically within the range of 95% CI of WB-TEG, but there were significant diffferences in K, A and CI value(P<0.05). When Plt count (×1011/L) was≥2.5 in plasma, the MA value of P-TEG was significantly extended than that of normal individuals(P<0.05); when Plt count (×1011/L) was 6.0 ~12.0, the MA and CI value of P-TEG significantly decreased(P<0.05). When Fib(g/L) was 6.4~6.91 in plasma, the R and K value of P-TEG were prolonged, but A, MA and CI value all decreased(P <0.05); when Fib(g/L) <1, the A and MA value significantly decreased(P<0.05), and K and CI value could not be detected. 【Conclusion】 The WB-TEG and its correlative kit can be used in P-TEG detection, and corresponding reference values of TEG parameters should be established in combination with the conditions of laboratories.

【Objective】 To explore the changes of parameters of thromboelastogram (TEG) detection in patients with cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage, and their correlation with routine coagulation indicators, and compare the two methods in detecting coagulation function and status in patients with cerebrovascular disease. 【Methods】 The detection data of 34 cases of cerebral infarction and 102 cases of cerebral hemorrhage, who underwent TEG and routine coagulation test in parallel, in Department of Neurosurgery of our hospital from January 1, 2018 to March 26, 2019 were collected. Fifty healthy subjects, who underwent TEG and routine coagulation tests in the same period, served as the control. The results of TEG and routine coagulation test of the 3 groups were compared and analyzed. 【Results】 Compared with cerebral hemorrhage (group) and the control, R value of cerebral infarction group decreased significantly, while the Angle angle, MA distance, CI value, Fib and D-D levels increased significantly(P<0.05); the K value, Fib, TT, and D-D of cerebral hemorrhage group increased significantly while Angle angle and MA distance decreased significantly compared with other two groups(P<0.05). The R value, K time (min), TT (s), D-D (mg/L), Angle angle (°), MA distance, CI value, and Fib (mmg/L) of cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage group were 5.06±1.71 vs 6.95±4.34, 1.19±0.68 vs 3.43±1.46, 13.89±1.05 vs 18.63±1.25, 1.93±0.25 vs 2.63±0.45, 69.34±10.37 vs 56.54±10.48, 68.34±9.37 vs 54.35±7.48, 2.20±0.31 vs 0.78±0.41, and 380±70.02 vs 354±71.56 (P<0.05). In cerebral infarction group, the R value, APTT, Angle angle, MA, and CI values were positively correlated with Fib (P<0.05); while K time was negatively correlated with Fib ; MA distance with PT/TT; CI value with PT/APTT(P<0.05). In the cerebral hemorrhage group, the R value was positively correlated with PT/APTT; K time with TT; Angle with Fib (P<0.05); R value/K time were negatively correlated with Fib; Angle with TT; CI value with PT (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 For patients with cerebrovascular disease, there is no correlation between TEG indicators and the D-D level of routine coagulation tests; the Angle angle of patients with cerebrovascular disease is positively correlated with the elevated Fib; and MA distance is more useful for diagnosing cerebral infarction than cerebral hemorrhage. TEG is complementary to routine coagulation test, and can be used as a laboratory index for assessing the severity of cerebrovascular disease.

Objective@#To explore the molecular basis for a pedigree affected with May-Hegglin anomaly (MHA).@*Methods@#Peripheral blood samples were collected and subjected to DNA extraction. Exons 1, 10, 16, 24, 25, 26, 30, 31, 33, 38 and 40 and flanking sequences of the MYH9 gene were subjected to PCR amplification and Sanger sequencing. Changes in protein expression were determined by an indirect immunofluorescence assay. Platelet aggregation function of the proband was assessed by thromboelastogram.@*Results@#The proband and his second son both carried a heterozygous 5521G>A (GAG→AAG) missense variant in exon 38 of the MYH9 gene, leading to p. Glu1841Lys substitution at position 1841 of amino acid sequence. Immunofluorescence showed inclusions containing NMMHC-ⅡA. Thromboelastogram suggested enhanced platelet aggregation function of the proband.@*Conclusion@#The c. 5521G>A variant of MYH9 gene has co-segregated with the phenotype of MHA in this pedigree. To assess the aggregation function of platelet by thromboelastogram can predict the risk of bleeding in MHA patients.
