ObjectiveTo explore the effects of hemofiltration on serum enzyme (SE),endotoxin (ET) and malonaldehyde (MDA) of dogs with heat stroke caused shock.MethodsSixteen healthy male hybrid dogs were randomly divided into 2 groups,8 for each:as heat stroke group (HS group ) and hemofiltration group (HF group).Severe heat stroke model was induced with high temperature.The dogs were taken out of the heating cabin when it reached heat stroke level,and then observed under normal temperature without treatment.The dogs in HF group was immediately treated with hemofiltration.The changes of SE,ET,MDA of two groups of dogs were observed and the survival time between two groups was compared,ResultsThe time from heat exposure to shock was ( 107.00 ± 28.52 ) and ( 111.38 ± 22.24 )minutes in HS group and HF group respectively ( t =- 0.354,P =0.729 ).The SE ( CK,LDH,ALT,AST) of the dogs were all higher after heat stroke,and the dogs of two groups showed no siginificant difference (P > 0.05).At three hours after heat stroke,the SE increased apparently in HS group and HF group,but the level was significantly lower in HF group. Before heat stroke,the serum ET showed no siginificant difference between two groups ( P > 0.05 ).After heat stroke,the serm ET was much higher than before ( P <0.01 ),but there was still no siginificant difference between two groups ( P >0.05 ).At three hours after heat stroke,the ET increased both in HF group and HS group,but the level was lower in HF group.Before heat stroke,the serm MDA had no siginificant difference between two groups ( P > 0.05 ).After heat stroke,the serm MDA was much higher than before ( P < 0.0l ),but there was still no siginificant difference between two groups (P > 0.05 ).After heat stroke in three hours,the MDA of HS group rose apparently while HF group slowly declined.The median survival time of HF group was 180 min while HS group was 75 min,the survival rate showed siginificant difference (P < 0.01 ).Conc4usions HF can improve the prognosis of dogs with heat stroke caused shock,prolong its survival time,reduce mortality.The mechanism is probably that HF clear serum MDA,partially clear serum ET and then eventually reduce cell and tissue injury and reduce SE.

Objective To detect the expressions and clinical significance of Nanog and CD44 protein in lung cancer. Methods The expressions of Nanog and CD44 were detected by immunohistochemistry in 50 cases of lung cancer, 32 cases of benign lesion lung tissue and 18 cases of paraneoplastic normal lung tissue. Then their relationships with clinicopathological factors were analyzed. Results The expression of Nanog in lung cancer was significantly higher than those in benign lesion lung tissue and paraneoplastic normal lung tissue (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference of the expression of CD44 among the three groups (P > 0.05). The expressions of Nanog and CD44 in squamous cell carcinomas were higher than those in adenocarcinomas and small cell lung carcinomas (P < 0.05). The expressions of Nanog and CD44 were significantly correlated with lymph node metastasis (P < 0.05), but were not correlated with age, gender, tumour size, TNM stage and differentiation of lung cancer (P>0.05). The positive correlation was also noted between the expressions of Nanog and CD44 in lung cancer (r = 0.564, P < 0.05). Conclusion Nanog and CD44 proteins may participate in the genesis and progression of lung cancer. Nanog protein is a potential diagnostic marker and therapeutic target for lung cancer.

Objective:To construct and validate a risk prediction model for immune checkpoint inhibitor-associated pneumonia (CIP) using machine learning algorithms and the nomogram, aiming to provide an accurate and intuitive method to assist nurses in screening people at high risk of developing CIP.Methods:This was a retrospective case -control study. A total of 230 oncology patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors attending Zhujiang Hospital of Southern Medical University from January 2019 to February 2022 were collected using the hospital's electronic medical record system. The prediction models were built using five machine learning algorithms and nomogram. The models were then validated on a separate test set, and their differentiation and stability were assessed using evaluation indices like AUC and accuracy rate.Results:Underlying lung disease, smoking history, serum albumin≤35 g/L and radiotherapy history were identified as important influencing factors of CIP in all six models. The AUC of K nearest neighbor, support vetor machines (SVM), naive Bayesian, decision tree and random forest models predicted CIP were 0.647, 0.696, 0.930, 0.870, and 0.934, respectively. The AUC of the model created by the nomogram was 0.813, which was lower than the best random forest model in the machine learning algorithm, but with good predictive performance (AUC=0.934).Conclusions:The nomogram model can assess the patient′s risk more intuitively, but the risk prediction model of CIP based on a machine learning algorithm has a higher diagnostic value. It is suggested that the accuracy and usefulness of the prediction model can be increased by combining the nomogram's foundation with the machine learning algorithm.
