70-year old female patient with mismatch between hematocrit and hemoglobin values: the effects of cold agglutinin on complete blood count

Introduction:

There are a number of pre-analytical and analytical factors, which cause false results in the complete blood count. The present case identifies cold agglutinins as the cause for the mismatch between hematocrit and hemoglobin values.

Materials and methods:

70-year old female patient had a history of cerebrovascular diseases and rheumatoid arthritis. During routine laboratory examination, the patient had normal leukocyte and platelet counts; however, the hemoglobin (Hb: 105 g/L) and hematocrit (HCT: 0.214 L/L) results were discordant. Hemolysis, lipemia and cold agglutinin were evaluated as possible reasons for the mismatch between hematocrit and hemoglobin values.

Results:

First blood sample was slightly hemolysed. Redrawn sample without hemolysis or lipemia was analyzed but the mismatch became even more distinct (Hb: 104 g/L and HCT: 0.08 L/L). In this sample, the titration of the cold agglutinin was determined and found to be positive at 1:64 dilution ratios. After an incubation of the sample at 37°C for 2 hours, reversibility of agglutination was observed.

Conclusion:

We conclude that cold agglutinins may interfere with the analysis of erythrocyte and erythrocyte-related parameters (HCT, MCV, MCH and MCHC); however, Hb, leukocyte and platelet counts are not affected.

京津冀地区水-能系统关联及协同效益

京津冀各地的水资源与能源通过区域内外产业链形成了复杂的相互依赖关系,分析该地区的水-能系统关联有助于制定资源协同管理政策和实现区域可持续发展。本文基于多区域投入产出模型对京津冀地区水-能系统关联及其驱动因素进行了分析,并在此基础上核算了水-能协同节约效益。结果表明：①京津冀各地能源部门与水资源的完全关联均远大于直接关联。其中北京市能源部门由于从中国其他地区调入了大量高耗水产品,从直接关联最低一跃成为完全关联最高。②京津冀各地水部门与能源的完全关联均大于直接关联。其中北京市由于循环利用了大量的再生水,在三地中直接关联最大;河北省由于本地其他部门的用水效率较低,在三地中完全关联最大。③京津冀地区能部门对水和水部门对能完全关联在2012—2017年间均有所下降,其中前者的主要驱动因素是中国（除京津冀）地区的技术变动效应和生产结构变动效应,而后者则是由各地自身和中国（除京津冀）地区的技术变动效应和生产结构变动效应共同驱动的。④京津冀地区取得了良好的水-能协同效益,但2017年相对2012年收益有所下降。随着水/能生产部门用能/用水效率的快速提升,京津冀地区未来的水-能协同效益可能继续下降。     

Key Educational Factors in the education of students with a medical condition

The education of children with a medical condition represents a unique educational context. The key educational factors that can help these children continue their education despite the burdens associated with their illness were discussed and analysed by a pool of experts for an EU funded project. In this context, relationships, making sense and constructing knowledge, assuming roles in front of others, metacognition, individualities and inter‐institutional communication emerged as the 6 Key Educational Factors (KEF) that are crucial for the education of this vulnerable population. The implications of the KEFs for home and hospital education are discussed, with a particular focus on practices that meet the relational and communicational needs of these children. Specific recommendations for the practice, policy, and research regarding these KEF within this unique educational context are presented.

中国交通发展的能源消费与对策研究

本文通过建立能源消费分解模型,对1980-2001年交通能耗的因子贡献进行了测算。结果表明,服务量的增长是能源消费增长的主要驱动力,同时运输结构的变化加剧了这种增长,过去实现的能耗强度降低不足以抑制能源消费的增加,而近年来能耗强度更显示出增加的趋势,交通石油消费增长趋势不可避免。需要综合规划与布局,促进交通的可持续发展。     

中高等语文教育的衔接性研究——以师范大学古典文学专业教学为例

目前师范大学中文系多数学生对于专业学习与教师职业之间的关系缺乏认识,古典文学任课教师在教学过程中并未清楚认识到与中学语文教学衔接的必要性和重要性。这不仅降低了大学课堂的教学效率,而且不利于大学生将来的职业发展。师范大学教师有必要进行深刻的反思,革新教学理念,调整教学内容,推进课程和教材建设,积极举行学科活动,使古典文学课程既能适应大学生潜在的职业需要,又能全面改善大学生的文化品质,并提升其综合素质,最终实现中高等语文教育的良性循环。
