Objective: To compare the morphologic features of bone marrow (BM) between the prefibrotic-early primary myelofibrosis (PMF) and essential thrombocythaemia (ET).

Method: Seven cases of prefibrotic-early PMF were selected and analyzed. Based on the diagnostic standard of prefibrotic-early PMF by WHO, BM aspirate smears, trephine biopsy sections and imprints of 156 uncertain ET cases conducted simultaneously were recruited into this study, the BM morphologic features between the prefibrotic-early PMF and ET groups were analyzed.

Objective: To explore the role of bone marrow (BM) imprint in the diagnosis of hematological diseases.

Methods: Between January 2002 and June 2008, a total of 3024 cases with BM smears, imprints and sections conducted simultaneously were recruited. There were 1667 males and 1357 females with a median age of 55 years old (range: 7 to 92).

The aim of this study was to improve the dyeing method of hydroperoxidase (HPO), to analyze the morphologic features of Phi bodies and to evaluate the clinical application of this method. 128 bone marrow or peripheral blood smears from patients with myeloid and lymphoid malignancies were stained by improved HPO staining. The Phi bodies were observed with detection rate of Phi bodies in different leukemias.

Objective: The purpose of this work was to investigate the distribution pattern of fibrinolytic factors and their inhibitors in rabbit tissues.

Methods: The components of the fibrinolytic system in extracts from a variety of rabbit tissues, including tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), plasminogen (Plg), plasmin (Pl) and alpha(2) plasmin inhibitor (alpha(2)PI), were determined by colorimetric assay.

Results: The tissue extracts in renal, small intestine, lung, brain and spleen demonstrated strong fibrinolytic function, in which high activity of tPA, Plg and Pl was manifested; whereas in skeletal muscle, tongue and stomach, higher activity of PAI-1 and alpha(2)PI showed obviously.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical value of plasma thrombomodulin (PTM) in different diseases or in different severity or complications of diseases, PTM in 979 patients and 60 healthy controls was determined by ELISA method. The results showed that the PTM level in the control group was 20.40 +/- 7.

Background: The potential to predict pancreatic necrosis within the first 48 h by using plasma soluble thrombomodulin (sTM) in 104 patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) was analyzed in a prospective 5-year investigation performed at a single institution.

Methods: According to Balthazar CT grade, pancreatitis was classified as no necrosis in 72 patients, one-third necrotic in 18 patients, one-half necrotic in 10 patients and more than one-half necrotic in 4 patients. Blood was collected at the first 48 hours after the onset of pain and analyzed for sTM.

Objective: To study the value of bone marrow biopsy imprint in evaluating cellularity.

Methods: The bone marrow tissues were obtained by trephine biopsy from 272 patients, and then put on the slides to make the imprints. The imprints was stained by Wright-Giemsa method, and the bone marrow smears and imprints were examined simultaneously according to the bone marrow cellularity criteria.

To investigate the morphological changes of megakaryocytes with nuclear extrusion and nucleocytoplasmic separation, the morphological characteristics of megakaryocytes in peripheral blood films, bone marrow smears, and bone marrow biopsies from 4 newly diagnosed patients with primary myelofibrosis (PMF), myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), myeloblastic leukemia with maturation (M(2)) and erythroleukemia (M(6)) were studied by using light microscope. The results showed that many kinds of dysmegakaryocytes were observed in bone marrow smears of 4 cases, while in case A (PMF) and case D (M(6)) micromegakaryocytes were ripped apart; in case B (MDS) and case C (M(2)) megakaryocytes were accompanied by nuclear extrusion or nucleocytoplasmic separation, and their bodies were large or giant, the part of nucleus separated from their body and little cytoplasm remained as micromegakaryocytes. The nucleocytoplasmic separation could be displayed by immunocytochemistry stain.

Objective: To study the plasma levels of urokinase-type plasminogen activator(u-PA) and its soluble receptor(suPAR )in patients with multiple myeloma(MM) and to evaluate their clinical significance.

Methods: Plasma u-PA and suPAR levels in 34 MM cases were measured with enzyme- linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The changes of plasma u-PA and suPAR levels in 6 MM cases were observed in succession before and after chemotherapy.

Objective: To study the changes of soluble Apo-1/Fas levels in plasma, pleural and ascites fluid of malignant tumor patients and to evaluate their clinical significance.

Methods: The soluble Apo-1/Fas levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in the plasma of 157 malignant tumor patients and 25 normal controls as well as in the pleural and ascite fluids of 129 patients with various diseases.

Result: The plasma soluble Apo-1/Fas levels in acute and chronic leukemia and multiple myeloma were significantly higher than those in normal controls (P <0.

Objective: To study the changes of thrombomodulin(TM) in both plasma and tissue extracts of cancer patients for evaluating its clinical significance.

Methods: Plasma TM levels were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA) in plasma of 188 cancer patients and in 24 cancer tissue extracts including their adjacent normal tissue.

Results: The plasma TM levels both in cancer patients and in metastasis patients were significantly higher than that in controls [(33.

Objective: To study the altering rule of coagulation function at molecular level in patients with secondary brain injury (SBI).

Methods: Tissue factor (TF) and tissue factor pathway inhibitor (TFPI) were studied in 32 patients 1, 2, 3 and 7 days after craniocerebral injury. Repeated cranial CT scans and platelet counts were made simultaneously.
