Objective To investigate the correlation of red blood cell distribution width (RDW) and neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) with total imaging load of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD), and the clinical diagnostic value of RDW, NLR and their combined indicators for high load of CSVD imaging. Methods The medical records of CSVD patients hospitalized in the Department of Neurology of Baotou Central Hospital between October 2018 and October 2022 were retrospective collected. The total imaging load of CSVD was obtained by evaluating the cranial MRI and divided into a low load group and a high load group. The general clinical data, past medical history, and blood biochemical indicators were compared between the two groups. The correlation analysis method was used to analyze the relationship between the relevant indicators and the total imaging load. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors of the total imaging load of CSVD. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic value of the detection indicators for clinical diagnosis. Results A total of 320 patients were included. Among them, there were 201 cases (62.81%) in the low load imaging group and 119 cases (37.19%) in the high load imaging group. Excepted for age, gender, history of hypertension, RDW, and NLR (P<0.05), there was no statistically significant difference in the comparison of other indicators between the two groups (P>0.05). Spearman correlation analysis showed that RDW (r=0.445, P<0.001) and NLR (r=0.309, P<0.001) were positively correlated with the total imaging load of CSVD. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, male gender, RDW, and NLR were risk factors for high imaging load of CSVD. The areas under the ROC curve of RDW, NLR, and their combined indicators were 0.733, 0.644, and 0.792, respectively.Conclusions In patients with CSVD, the levels of RDW and NLR are related to the total imaging load of CSVD, which are independent risk factors for high imaging load of CSVD. The levels of RDW and NLR have clinical diagnostic value in predicting CSVD high load.
Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of the series parameters of reticulocyte in children with different types of anemia. Methods From January to August 2015, the reticulocyte parameters of 150 children with different types of anemia treated in the People’s Hospital of Dujiangyan were retrospectively analyzed. Another 150 healthy children aged 1-10 years examined in the same hospital at the same period were as the control group. Mindray BC-6900 automatic blood cell analyzer and suited reagent were used to determine the absolute value of reticulocyte (RET#), percentage of reticulocyte (RET%), immature reticulocyte ratio (IRF), low fluorescent intensity reticulocyte percentage (LFR%), moderate fluorescent intensity reticulocyte percentage (MFR%), and height fluorescent intensity reticulocyte percentage (HFR%). The data were statistically analyzed. Results Compared with the control group, RET%, RET# and IRF results in iron deficiency anemia group, hemolytic anemia group, aplastic anemia group, recent hemorrhagic anemia group, renal anemia group, leukemia and chemotherapy group had statistical difference (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, LFR%, MFR%, HFR% results in hemolytic anemia group and aplastic anemia group had statistical difference (P<0.05). LFR%, MFR% and HFR% results of other types of anemia had no statistical differences (P>0.05). Conclusion The series parameters of the reticulocyte, having an important reference value, can be used in the diagnosis of children with different types of anemia as a reference index, early diagnosis and early treatment of children with different anemia, which also can be used as a method to diagnose different types of anemia.

Objective To observe the expression of erythropoietin (EPO) and EPO receptor (EPOR) in detached retina in rat model. Methods Fourty-eight male SD rats were randomly divided into control group and retinal detachment (RD) groups (1 hour, 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, and 72 hours group) with 6 rats (12 eyes) in each group. 1.4% hyaluronic acid was slowly injected into the subretinal space to induce the detachment of the upper retina to set up the RD model. The expression levels of mRNA and protein of EPO and EPOR were measured by RT-PCR and western-blotting analysis. Meanwhile, the locations of EPO and EPOR in retina were checked by immunohistochemistry. Results Both of the mRNA and protein levels of EPO and EPOR increased after RD, and reached the peak at the 48th hour after RD. The mRNA levels of EPO and EPOR were significantly higher in the 6 and 12 hours group than that in the control group(Plt;0.05). The protein levels of EPO and EPOR were significantly higher in 3 hours group than that in the control group(Plt;0.05). Immunohistochemistry indicated weak expression of EPO from ganglion cell layer to inner and outer segment of photoreceptor cells, and b expression in the corresponding location was found 48 hours after RD. Expression of EPOR from ganglion cell layer to inner segment of photoreceptor cells in the normal retina was detected, and b expression in the corresponding location was found 48 hours after RD. Conclusion The expression of EPO and EPOR in retina increases gradually after RD, and reaches the peak at the 48th hour; most of the layers of neural retina can express EPO and EPOR.
To study the red cell′s deformation and the immune adhesion functions to tumor cell in patients with primary gallbladder carcinoma (PGC), twenty-seven patients with PGC and twenty normal persons were investigated by means of BL88B type laser diffraction RBC deformation instrument and agglutinate method of tumor cell. The result showed that the RBC deformation index was lower in patients with PGC than that in the normal persons (P<0.01). Also was the enhance factor of RBC immune adherent functions lower than that in the normal persons. While the inhibitory factor was higher than that in the normal persons. The result suggests that the decrease of RBC immune function be related with change of serum modulating factors in patient with PGC.
Objective To assess the effectiveness and safety of erythropoietin (EPO) for cancer-related malignant anemia without radiotherapy or chemotherapy. Methods Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) or quasi-randomized controlled trials (quasi-RCTs) involving erythropoietin in the treatment of cancer-related malignant anemia were searched and identified from PubMed (1966 to Sept. 2009), EMBASE (1974 to Sept. 2009), The Cochrane Library (Issue 3, 2009), CBM (1978 to Sept. 2009), CNKI (1994 to Sept. 2009), VIP (1989 to Sept. 2009). We also handsearched relevant journals. Data were extracted and evaluated by two reviewers independently with specially designed extraction form. We evaluated the quality of the included studies by the Cochrane Handbook 5.0 recommend standard and analyzed data by Cochrane Collaboration’s RevMan 5.0. Results We included twelve trials. The quality of the included studies was poor. The grade of ten studies was B, and the grade of two studies was C. Meta-analyses showed that there were significant differences between erythropoietin and blank in volume of blood transfusion [SMD= –0.66, 95%CI (–1.14, –0.17), P=0.008], number need to transfusion [OR=0.60, 95%CI (0.39, 0.92), P=0.02], and the change of hemoglobin after two-week therapy [SMD=2.40, 95%CI (0.29, 4.52), P=0.03]. Conclusion The current evidence shows that EPO significantly benefits cancer-related malignant anemia. Well-designed RCTs with a larger sample size, longer intervention and follow-up periods are still needed.
Objective To investigate the protective effect and mechanism of erythropoietin (EPO) on injury of human retinal pigment epithelial (hRPE) cell induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Methods Take subcultured hFRPE cells as study target. They were treated with 800 mu;mol/L of H2O2 for 3 hours to establish the cell injury model. The cultured cells were divided into three groups:control group, simply injury group and therapeutic group which again divided into 10 IU/ml, 20 IU/ml, 40 IU/ml,60 IU/ml subgroups according to the concentration of recombinant human erythropoietin(rhEPO). NF-kappa;B was measured by immunohistochemistry. The content of Malondialdehyde(MDA) which was the product of cellular lipid peroxidation and the releasing rate of lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)were estimated by chromatometry. Results H2O2 could elevate the level of MDA and the releasing rate of LDH, compared simply injury group with control group, the differences were significant.(tLDH=29.746,tMDA=20.426,Plt;0.05); Compared all of therapeutics groups with simply injury group, the releasing rate of MAD and LDH were decreased obviously, the differences were significant.(LDH t10IU=5.770,t20IU=12.774,t40IU=19.818,t60IU=24.833,Plt;0.05;MDA t10IU=5.345,t20IU=10.278,t40IU=18.571,t60IU=20.247,Plt;0.05); The correlative analysis results of each therapeutic subgroup were: ①the concentration of rhEPO had negative correlation with the relation rate of LDH and the content of MDA(r=-0.976,P=0.024; r=-0.968,P=0.032) ; ②the concentration of rhEPO had positive correlation with the nuclear translative rate of NF-kappa;B(r=0.998,P=0.002); ③the nuclear translative rate of NF-kappa;B had negative correlation with the content of MDA(r=-0.954,P=0.046). Conclusion EPO can protect hFRPE cells from the injury of H2O2, the mechanism may be related to the activation of NF-kappa;B.
