RESUMO
【Objective】 To evaluate the screening efficacy and practical value of the portable microfluidic biochemical analyzer in the detection of blood donors before blood donation. 【Methods】 Blood donor samples, clinical blood samples and constant quality control products were collected. Referring to the documents of ISO15189 and National Health Industry Standard, the precision and accuracy of hemoglobin (Hb) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT) were verified and compared with other detection systems. 【Results】 The MS200 biochemistry instrument has an intra-batch precision of 1.40% to 1.46%, inter-batch precision of 1.91% to 1.94%, and correctness bias of -0.9% to -1.3% for Hb test, and an intra-batch precision of 3.77% to 4.86%, inter-batch precision of 4.92% to 6.02%, and correctness bias of -3.0% to -4.8% for ALT test, which were within the range of quality requirements of industry standard. Comparison of Hb test results between MS200 biochemistry and Hb201 analyser on 1 189 peripheral blood samples from donors showed no statistically significant difference (P>0.05). 65 samples showed positive correlation between MS200 biochemistry and XS-900i automated hematology analyzer on Hb test results (R2=0.986, P=0.000). Correlation analysis of all the results of ALT detection by MS200 biochemical analyzer and AU480 biochemical analyzer in 1 065 samples showed a positive correlation (R2=0.965, P=0.000). The elevated ALT samples did not affect the Hb test results, and the samples with abnormal Hb value did not affect the ALT test results, with no interference between the two items in the detection. 【Conclusion】 The MS200 biochemical analyzer based on microfluidic technology has reliable methodological performance and can meet the need of pre-donation testing.
RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate modified Lanza score (MLS) of gastric mucosa for predicting the prognosis of geriatric patients with sepsis.Methods:Data of 50 patients with sepsis, who were over 60 years old and underwent gastroscopy for suspected gastrointestinal bleeding in the Department of Geriatric Critical Care Medicine of Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital from January 2019 to April 2022, were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into the death group ( n=32) and the survival group ( n=18) according to their regression within 28 days after gastroscopy. Their gastric mucosa was scored by using MLS system, and the mortality of patients with MLS≥1 was calculated, then the patients were further divided into 2 groups, MLS=0-2 ( n=23, less than 2 regions of lesions ) and MLS=3-5 ( n=27, two or more regions of lesions). The relationship between MLS and acute physiology and chronic health status evaluation (APACHE) Ⅱ score, risk factor of death and mortality in each group were compared. The correlation between MLS and mortality was analyzed. The influence of geriatric sepsis risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients within 28 days were analyzed by using logistic regression. Results:Among the 50 geriatric patients with sepsis, those with gastric mucosal lesions, i.e., MLS ≥1, accounted for 68.00% (34/50), including 84.38% (27/32) patients with MLS≥1 in the death group, which was significantly higher than the 38.89% (7/18) patients with MLS≥1 in the survival group ( χ 2=10.593, P<0.001). Patients with MLS=3-5 had significantly higher APACHE Ⅱ scores (26.09±6.47 VS 18.57±7.66, t=3.527, P=0.001) and higher mortality [85.19% (23/27) VS 39.13% (9/23), χ 2=11.434, P=0.001] compared with MLS=0-2. Correlation analysis showed a significant correlation between MLS and mortality ( r=0.886, P=0.019). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that MLS=4-5 was an independent risk factor for death in geriatric patients with sepsis ( OR=17.055, 95% CI: 1.387-209.744, P=0.027). Conclusion:MLS presents high sensitivity in predicting 28-day outcomes for geriatric patients with sepsis. Two or more than 2 regions of gastric mucosal lesions can significantly increase the risk of death in geriatric patients with sepsis.
RESUMO
Objective To observe the changes and clinical significance of procalcitonin(PCT) level in children with bacterial pneumonia.Methods The levels of PCT,hs-CRP and WBC were detected in 31 pneumonia children pre and post antibiotic treatment,and the changes were observed.Results The PCT levels of the 31 patients were all increased before treatment.After cured,PCT level of 28 cases returned to normal.But in the 28 normal cases,WBC level increased in 10 cases(35.7%),and hs-CRP level elevated in 4 cases(14.3%).In the other 3 cases,the PCT levels decreased from 5.69ng/mL,1.25ng/mL and 0.83ng/mL at admission to 0.51ng/mL,0.55ng/mL and 0.52ng/mL,respectively.And in these 3 cases,there was one case with the levels of WBC and hs-CRP respectively ascended,in which WBC level descended from 13.1 × 109/L to 12.1 × 109/L and hs-CRP level reduced from 20.92mg/L to 7.38mg/L.Conclusion The sensitivity of the index PCT is the highest at the accurate time phase of bacterial pneumonia,which can guide the reasonable use of antibiotics.
RESUMO
A 3D model of heart configurations and interior structures has been constructed using Visual C++ visualization toolkit based on the Dataset of Visible Chinese Human. The finite element model of left ventricular is obtained from the heart structure model. Both ventricular wall and blood in the cavity are modeled by finite element mesh. The fluid-structure coupling of the left ventricle and blood has been constructed using an arbitrary Lagrange-Euler algorithm. Based on these models, the fluid-structure interaction of the left ventricle and blood in the filling phase is simulated. The simulation result successfully reproduced the biphasic filling flow consisting of early rapid filling and atrial contraction, which is similar to the clinical observation. This study provides a feasible method with which we can use image-based fluid-structure simulation to analyse the structure and haemodynamics properties of heart. It could be applied in heart functional investigations and clinical applications.
