Objective: To explore the application value on combined examination of blood levels of growth differentiation factor-15 (GDF-15) and NT-pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in patients after successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) for their recent prognosis.
Methods: A total of 102 patients with sudden cardiac arrest and successful CPR in our hospital were enrolled. Blood levels of GDF-15 were examined at immediately, 12 h and 24-48 h after CPR respectively. According to GDF-15 levels, the patients were divided into 3 groups: Group A, the patients with GDF-15<1200 ng/L at all-time points,n=31; Group B, GDF-15 level consistently increasing and GDF-15>1200 ng/L at all-time points,n=35; Group C, GDF-15 level consistently increasing at 12 h and 24-48 h after CPR, while it was lower at 24-48 h than 12 h after CPR,n=36. Blood levels of NT-proBNP and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were also examined. The patients were followed-up for 6 months for post-CPR death.
Results: Blood levels of GDF-15 and NT-proBNP were related, NT-proBNP level was changing with GDF-15 varying. GDF-15 and NT-proBNP level was negatively related to LVEF (r=-0.530,P<0.001), the patients with GDF-15>1800 ng/L and NT-proBNP>400 pg/ml had the higher mortality than those had the lower levels of GDF-15 and NT-proBNP,P<0.05. Survival analysis presented that 6 months survival rate in Group B was lower than Group A and Group C,P<0.05; survival rate was similar between Group A and Group C,P>0.05.
Conclusion: Combined examination for blood levels of GDF-15 and NT-proBNP may better predict the recent prognosis in patients who received CPR.

Objective To analyze the distribution of image noise in low-dose chest CT scan and optimize the relative scanning parameters.Methods The CT images of the Chinese anthropomorphic chest phantom( CDP-1 C) were simulated into six groups of low-dose images with different noise indexs by using an image noise addition tool.The difference between the preset noise index and analog noise value was compared.The CT images of 20 volunteers were also simulated into nine groups of low dose scans with the tube currents of 10,30,50,80,100,120,150,180 and 240 mA.The noise values of images were recorded and analyzed.Results There was no statistical difference between the analog noise value and the noise index.The image noise of low-dose chest scan was increased with the decrease of tube current.The noise was increased quickly when the current was decreased from 50 to 30 mA ( F =24.09 - 40.79,P ＜ 0.05),but the noise increased slowly when the current decreased from 240 to 80 mA.There was no statistical difference between the noise of 80 mA group and that of 120 mA(P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The noise addition tool can be used to evaluate the image noise of low-dose chest CT scan.Adoption of 80 mA in chest CT scan would result in low radiation dose without adding image noise.

Objective To explore the diagnostic value of artificial intelligence (AI) cytology combined with DNA-image cytometry (DNA-ICM) auxiliary diagnostic system for the identification of benign and malignant pleural effusion and ascites. Methods Liquid-based cytology technology (LCT), DNA-ICM, AI, and AI combined with DNA-ICM were used to identify benign and malignant pleural effusion and ascites specimens in 360 cases, and their sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, Kappa value, Youden index and AUC were statistically analyzed. Results The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of AI combined with DNA-ICM in detecting benign and malignant pleural effusion and ascites were 95.23%, 94.12%, and 94.44%, respectively, which were higher than those of the three other separate detection methods (all P < 0.05). The kappa values of LCT, DNA-ICM, and AI were 0.646, 0.642, and 0.586; their Youden index values were 0.693, 0.687, and 0.676, and their AUC values were 0.846, 0.843, and 0.838, respectively. The Kappa value of AI combined with DNA-ICM was 0.869, the Youden index was 0.893, and AUC was 0.947, which were all higher than those of the three detection methods alone. Conclusion Among the three separate detection methods, LCT has the highest reliability, authenticity, and diagnostic value, and it can be used as a common method for the clinical identification of benign and malignant pleural effusion and ascites. The diagnostic performance of AI combined with DNA-ICM auxiliary diagnosis system in identifying benign and malignant pleural effusion and ascites is better than those of the three separate detection methods and can be used as a reliable method for the clinical identification of benign and malignant pleural effusion and ascites.

Lung transplantation is the ultimate treatment for many kinds of end-stage lung diseases. However, the perioperative management of lung transplantation is complicated with high fatality of patients. Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) is an effective method of extracorporeal respiration and circulation support. ECMO plays an important role in the perioperative support treatment of lung transplantation, which breaks the limitation of contraindications and promotes the development of lung transplantation. In this article, the indications, catheter placement strategies and application of ECMO in the perioperative period of lung transplantation were reviewed.

Lung transplantation is the only effective approach to treat end-stage lung diseases. Nevertheless, early prognosis of lung transplant recipients is significantly worse than that of other solid organ transplant recipients. Primary graft dysfunction (PGD) is one of the main causes affecting clinical prognosis of the recipients. PGD is an early acute lung injury after lung transplantation, which is the main cause of early death of lung transplant recipients. Risk factors of PGD after lung transplantation consist of donor, recipient and operation, etc. In this article, the risk factors of PGD after lung transplantation were reviewed, aiming to provide reference for clinical practice.

Objective To evaluate the effect of donor age on short-term survival of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) after lung transplantation. Methods Clinical data of 235 IPF donors and recipients of lung transplantation were retrospectively analyzed. Univariate and multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression models were employed to analyze the correlation between donor age and short-term mortality rate of IPF patients after lung transplantation. Kaplan-Meier was used to draw the survival curve. Results Univariate Cox regression analysis showed that donor age was correlated with the 1-year fatality of IPF patients after lung transplantation. The 1-year fatality of recipients after lung transplantation was increased by 0.020 times if donor age was increased by 1 year (P=0.009). Oxygenation index of the donors, preoperative oxygenation index, preoperative lung allocation score, preoperative N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide, pattern of transplantation, pattern of intraoperative extracorporeal membrane oxygenation and intraoperative blood transfusion volume of the recipients were correlated with 1-year fatality after lung transplantation (all P < 0.1). Multivariate Cox regression analysis demonstrated that there was no correlation between donor age and 30-, 90-, 180-d and 1-year fatality of IPF patients after lung transplantation (all P > 0.05). Sensitivity analysis showed that there was no significant difference in 30-, 90-, 180-d and 1-year fatality after lung transplantation among donors aged < 18, 18-33, 34-49 and ≥50 years (all P > 0.05). Conclusions Donor age exerts no effect upon short-term survival of IPF patients after lung transplantation. Considering the mechanical ventilation time, oxygenation index, infection and other factors of donors, the age range of lung transplant donors may be expanded.
