Tea leaf spot caused by is a disease that has recently been discovered in the tea plantations of Southwest China, and which has a significant negative impact on the yield and quality of tea leaves. Wuyiencin is a nucleotide antimicrobial that is effective against a range of fungal diseases. However, its mode of action is still unclear.

Methods: One-hundred fifteen healthy controls (HC), 43 patients with benign adenoma (BA), and 387 patients with colorectal cancers (CRC) were included in the study. TEG parameters (reaction time, R; clot kinetics, K; alpha angle, α-angle; maximum amplitude, MA), conventional laboratory parameters, and clinical information were collected and analyzed among the HC, BA, and CRC groups.
Aims: The purpose of this research was to explore the association of TEG parameters (Reaction time, R; Clot kinetics, K; Alpha angle, α-angle; Maximum amplitude, MA) with vascular complications of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and assess whether TEG parameters could predict T2DM patients with vascular complications.
Methods: A total of 68 healthy controls (HC), 57 T2DM patients without vascular complications (NC), 18 T2DM patients with only microvascular complications (MIC), 196 T2DM patients with only macrovascular complications (MAC), and 94 T2DM patients with both microvascular and macrovascular complications (MIC+MAC) were recruited in this study. Participants' clinical information and TEG parameters were recorded.
Background: Plasma homocysteine (Hcy) levels may be associated with essential hypertension (EH). However, the results of previous studies on this association are inconsistent.
Methods: In this meta-analysis, we performed a systematic literature search of the Embase, PubMed, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science for the relevant articles dated up to March 2016.

Objective: To study a family with Bw subtype of ABO blood group system, and to review safety issues in relation with clinical transfusion.
Methods: The molecular basis for the blood type was studied with serological assay, polymerase chain reaction-sequence specific primer (PCR-SSP) and DNA sequencing, TA clone and haplotype analysis in one blood donor whose ABO blood group were difficulty typed and her family. The bioinformatics analysis was carried out by biological analysis software to investigate the change of structure and function of enzymes influenced by the change amino acid.

The purpose of this study was to explore the clinical value of the platelet antibody screening and typing in platelets transfusion by using microcolumn gel immunoassay (MGIA). The platelets antigen-antibody reactions including the antibody screen and blood crossmatch were detected by MGIA. The results indicated that the detection of platelet antibody showed positive in 30 cases of aplastic anemia (AA), 11 cases of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS), 24 out of 25 cases of leukemia and 1 out of cases of other diseases, while detection of platelet antibody showed negative in 20 normal volunteer donors.
