RESUMEN
【Objective】 To investigate the factors affecting the quality of cryoprecipitated antihemophilic factor. 【Methods】 The quality test results of cryoprecipitated antihemophilic factor in Xuzhou Central Blood Station from 2017 to 2020 were selected and compared. The fresh frozen plasma (FFP) was stratifying by storage time following whole blood collection: less than 2h, 2~4 h, 4~6 h, and 6~8 h; by gender: males and females; by blood group: A, B, O, and AB groups; by age: 18~30, 30~45, and 45~60 ages; by preparation method: centrifugation and siphonage. The contents of fibrinogen (FIB) and factor Ⅷ in cryoprecipitated antihemophilic factor in each group were compared. 【Results】 The content of FIB and factor Ⅷ in females were higher than those in males(P<0.05). The content of factor Ⅷ differed statically by blood groups (P<0.05), which was lower in group O than others [graup A(180.5±75.2)IU, graup B(155.1±59.4)IU, graup O(109.3±46.4)IU, graup AB(168.5±65.1)IU]. The content of factor Ⅷ increased with age statistically (P<0.05). The content of FIB prepared by centrifugation [(373.3±126.1)mg] was superior to siphonage [(309.4±85.6)mg] (P<0.05), while the content of factor Ⅷ prepared by siphonage [(172.4±71.3)IU] was superior to centrifugation [(124.0±49.1)mg] (P<0.05). 【Conclusion】 Gender and preparation method are the influencing factors of FIB. Gender, age, blood group and preparation method are the influencing factors of the content of factor Ⅷ. The FFP prepared by whole blood preserved with the ACD (citrate, sodium citrate and glucose) solution at any time within 8h after the collection has no impact on the quality of cryoprecipitated antihemophilic factor.
RESUMEN
COVID-19 virus has currently caused major outbreaks worldwide. ACE2 is a major cellular-entry receptor for the COVID-19 virus. Although ACE2 is known to be expressed in many organs, whether it is expressed by the conjunctival tissue is largely unknown. Human conjunctival tissues from 68 subjects were obtained, which included 10 subjects with conjunctival nevi, 20 subjects with conjunctivitis, 9 subjects with conjunctival papilloma, 16 subjects with conjunctival cyst, 7 subjects with conjunctival polyps, and 6 ocular traumas as normal subjects. Expression of ACE2 was evaluated by immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence, reverse transcriptase-quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and western blot assay. We observed the expression of ACE2 by conjunctival tissues, expecially in conjunctival epithelial cells. ACE2 was significantly (p<0.001) overexpressed in conjunctival cells obtained from subjects with conjunctivitis, conjunctival nevi, conjunctival papilloma, conjunctival cyst, and conjunctival polyps epithelial cells when compared to that in conjunctival epithelial cells obtained from control subjects. Collectively, clinical features of reported COVID-19 patients combined with our results indicate that COVID-19 is likely to be transmitted through the conjunctiva.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of decitabine combined with CAG regimen in treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) ineligible for conventional chemotherapy. Methods The data of 20 cases with AML ineligible for conventional chemotherapy from January 2013 to May 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. Decitabine combined with CAG regimen was used during induction therapy. The primary induction regimen was used 26 times after remission, the standard 3+7 regimen were used 7 times, and intermediate-dose cytarabine were used 3 times. The total course of treatment included 2-8 cycles. Results All of the 20 patients completed the first cycle of induction therapy, including 11 cases of complete remission (CR), 5 cases of partial remission and no response in 4 cases, and the overall response rate (ORR) was 80 % (16/20). ORR was 69.2 % (9/13) and 100.0 % (7/7) in high-risk group and middle-low risk group respectively. ORR was 60.0%(6/10) in AML evolving from MDS. 8 patients were infected during the induction therapy and the infection rate was 40.0% (8/20). 2 patients were died of pulmonary infection. The median number of suspended red blood cell and platelet infused were (9.1±5.7) U and (57.5±51.9) U respectively. Neutrophil recovery time was (8.7±5.6) days during induction therapy. All patients were followed up for at least 1 year, and 12 cases were dead. Overall survival rate was 85.0%at 3 months, 80.0%at 6 months, and 40.0%at 1 year. While in 12 CR patients relapse-free survival rate was 75.0%at 3 months, 75.0%at 6 months,and 65.6%at 1 year respectively. Conclusion Decitabine combined with CAG regimen with high remission rate and well tolerance, can be used as a first therapy for AML ineligible for conventional chemotherapy.
RESUMEN
Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of low-dose cytarabine and harringtonine (LD-HA) regimen in the induction therapy of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) except M3. Methods 52 AML patients who received LD-HA were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were graded according to molecular biological and cytogenetic risk degree. The clinical efficacy, toxicity of LD-HA and long-term survival followed-up were compared with those of idarubicin and cytarabine (IA) regimen in 49 patients. Results After one cycle, the overall remission (OR) rates of LD-HA group and IA group were 71.2%(37/52) [CR rate 50.0%(26/52), PR rate 21.2%(11/52)] and 53.1%(26/49) [CR rate 44.9%(22/49), PR rate 8.2%(4/49)], respectively, with no statistical significance of OR between the two groups (P= 0.068). OR rates were not statistically significant in either low-risk group or intermediate-risk group between LD-HA group and IA group (P> 0.05), but OR of high-risk group in LD-HA was much higher than that in IA group [100 % (11/11) vs 66.7 % (12/18), P<0.05]. Cardiac toxicity and bone marrow suppression in LD-HA group were much milder than those in IA group. The patients unfit for standard chemotherapy could tolerate to LD-HA regimen. Conclusions LD-HA regimen as induction for high risk AML patients can improve the OR rate, and reduce the side effects, which is beneficial for high-risk AML patients.
RESUMEN
Objective Survey the classification on diseases of patients in hospital. Discuss personnel arrange-ment of nursing staff. Methods Survey and star sickbed number,CD rate/month,nurse number accounted on nursing level and sickbed-nurse ratio in 2007, discuss personnel arrangement of nursing staff. Results It is different that the nurse number accounted by two means, Z=2.234,P=0.025. The correlation about CD rate and nurse number in theories: r=0.782,p=0.004, nurse number in theories= CD ratex0.51-17.11, F=16.543,p=0.003.Conclusion CD rate should be reasonable personnel arrangement of nursing staff.
