Platelet satellitism: experimental studies

Platelet satellitism (PS), the in vitro phenomenon of platelets rosetting about nonlymphocytic leukocytes, is an uncommon and poorly understood finding reported in the ethylenediaminetetra-acetic acid (EDTA)-anticoagulated blood of patients with a wide variety of clinical conditions. This report presents experimental studies investigating the nature of this phenomenon by utilizing the blood of patients with platelet satellitism. Wet preparation studies and electron microscopy (transmission and scanning) demonstrated the morphologic sequences involved in the phenomenon, including eventual phagocytosis of platelets by neutrophils. The results of varying conditions such as time, temperature, and anticoagulant are described. All of five patients tested were found to have cryofibrinogenemia. Certain blood components from all of three patients tested were capable of inducing PS in normal whole blood, whereas components from normal subjects usually were not. In one patient (A), the PS-inducing capability appeared to be present in both plasma and platelets. In another patient (B) the PS-inducing capability was present in platelets (in both 1966 and 1975) and also in the cryosupernate of serum and plasma; among various antisera, antifibrinogen had the greatest ability to reduce the degree of PS in patient blood; addition of moderate amounts of CaCl2 and/or MgCl2 did not diminish the phenomenon; and two sisters and two daughters demonstrated no PS. In a third patient (C) the PS-inducing capability appeared to be largely concentrated in the cryoprecipitable fraction of plasma. These studies suggest that there are different factors in the patients' blood resulting in PS. Further studies showed PS could be induced in normal blood by adding certain nonprimate antihuman antisera (anti-IgM, antialbumin or antifibrinogen) and also by adding some preparations of normal washed platelets to the same individuals's normal whole blood. This indicates that the phenomenon of PS can be produced by factors other than those specifically present in patients with PS. Antigen-antibody complexes, either formed in vivo (mixed cryoglobulinemia) or in vitro, did not result in PS when mixed with normal blood. These and other studies suggest that PS can result from the presence of several different factors, usually proteins (in conjunction with EDTA), which probably attach to the surface of platelets apparently resulting in some alteration (such as change in surface charge) causing the platelets to be attracted to and phagocytosed by neutrophils.

目的：通过对儿童智商（IQ）与父母亲IQ和IQ分项相关研究，探讨儿童IQ和父母亲IQ的深层关系。方法：在合肥市某中学、小学和幼儿园，分别按年龄和性别分层，随机抽取4-14岁健康儿童206名及其父母作为研究对象，应用韦氏智力量表（成人和儿童）测定儿童和其父母的IQ，填写自编的影响儿童智力发育因素调查问卷。最后在考虑儿童的年龄、性别、克托莱指数（Quetelet index）和是否独生子女等可能混杂因素下将儿童的总IQ、语言IQ和操作IQ与其父母的总IQ、语言IQ、操作IQ和IQ分项进行多元逐步回归分析。结果：按F〉2．0标准，儿童总IQ与父母亲总IQ成正相关（偏相关系数分别为0．50和0．22）；儿童语言IQ与母亲算术、母亲知识、父亲算术、父亲拼物成正相关（偏相关系数0.23-0．37）；儿童操作IQ和母亲积木图案、母亲拼物和父亲拼物成正相关（偏相关系数0．31-0．50）。结论：父母亲的总IQ和父母IQ分项中的算术、拼物、积木图案和知识等对儿童总IQ、语言IQ和操作IQ影响最大。

Increased expression of osteopontin gene in atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor of the central nervous system.

The atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor, primary to the central nervous system, is a highly malignant and aggressive neoplasm of infancy and childhood. Although having distinct biological features and clinical outcomes, it is frequently misdiagnosed as primitive neuroectodermal tumor/medulloblastoma. To further distinguish the underlying pathogenesis and to identify biological markers for clinical use, an atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor-derived cell line was established and its gene expression pattern analyzed in comparison to the human astrocyte SVG12 cell line and the human DAOY medulloblastoma cell line using a complementary DNA microarray method. The osteopontin gene was found specifically upregulated in atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor cells. This specificity was confirmed by immunohistochemistry in pathological sections of tissues from atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor patients. Even though the role of osteopontin in the cytopathogenesis of atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor still needs to be determined, our data support that overexpressed osteopontin is a potential diagnostic marker for atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumor.

探索采用血管透明化技术结合粒子图像测速技术(PIV)来研究搭桥血管内血流流场的可行性.结果显示血管透明化技术能完整地保留搭桥血管段在体内的真实立体几何构形,从而更准确地反应搭桥血管段在体内的血流流场,而PIV能很好地获得血流流场的信息.因此,将血管透明化技术与PIV相结合有可能使我们对旁路搭桥术后血管内膜增生的血流动力学成因进行更深入地研究.     

呼气相胸片的识别研究

根据呼气相胸片中肺部区域灰度较高的特点，通过边缘提取和边缘跟踪确定胸部区域，运用最大类间方差方法确定图像分割的阈值．再提取出肺部区域，然后求出肺部的灰度均值。但这样的结果并不理想。于是在此基础上提出修正方案，即以肺部灰度均值和骨骼灰度均值的比值作为特征值．即比例法。此方法可以较客观的识别呼气相胸片。最后用类间距离对这两种方法进行了量化比较。
