ObjectiveTo investigate the independent risk factors of 30-day mortality of nontraumatic acute chest pain in emergency department so as to get non - traumatic acute chest pain risk score,MethodsThe clinical data of 532 patients with non - traumatic acute chest pain were reviewed.The independent risk factors of 30 - day mortality were identified after analysis of medical history,symptom and sign,laboratory findings by uuivariate analysis and logistic regression.Non- traumatic acute chest pain risk score was made as per the odds ratios of these risk factors. ResultsThe average age of the patients was (55.7 + 12.7 ) years,and 45 patients ( 8.4％ ) died after 30 days.In patients with non - traumatic acute chest pain,history of hypertension (OR:4.28; 95％ CI:1.59-11.55 ),prolonged chest pain (OR:1.1; 95％ CI:1.05-1.15),dyspnea (OR:6.61; 95％CI:2.40-18.10) and tachycardia (OR:1.02; 95％CI:1.00-1.04),high leucocyte count (OR:1.18; 95％CI:1.06-1.31) and D - Dimer ( OR:1.002; 95％ CI:1.001-1.002 ) predicted 30 - day mortality independently,whereas chest pain relieved by medicine (OR:0. 15; 95％ CI:0.04-0.65),high blood oxygen saturation (SaO2) (OR:0.89; 95％CI:0.83-0.98) and normal hematocrit (OR:0.92; 95％CI:0.86-0.99) were good markers to predict optimistic prognosis.Non - traumatic acute chest pain risk score was higher in 30 - day dead group than those in survival group significantly ( P ＜ 0.01 ),and mortality was significantly different between groups with various risk stratification (P ＜ 0. 01 ).Conclusions Clinical physician can predict 30 - day mortality and evaluate prognosis in patients with acute chest pain by using non - traumatic acute chest pain risk score quickly and effectively.

Objective To investigate the profile of local immunity of vagina and the immune defense mechanisms against lower genital tract infections. Methods Vaginal lavage was collected from healthy women and patients of vulvovaginal candidiasis, bacterial vaginosis, Trichomonol vaginitis, human papilloma virus infection(VVC), and chlamydia trachomatis infection. Each group included 60 cases. The level of interleukin (IL) 2,4,5, 13,8 and human defensin 5 (HD5) were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). Results (1) Cytokine of helper T cell 1(Th1): the level of IL-2 between healthy women and VVC/ bacterial vaginosis (BV)/ trichomonol vaginitis (TV)/ chlamydia trachomatis (CT) patients had no significant difference. The IL-2 level(96±33 )×10-3 pg/L of human papilloma virus (HPV) infection patients was significantly higher than that of healthy women( P<0.05). (2)Cytokine of helper T cell 2 (Th2) : the level of IL-4 between healthy women and VVC/CT patients had no significant difference. The level of IL-5 between healthy women and BV patients had no significant difference. The IL-13 level(42±15)×10-3 pg/L of TV patients was significantly higher than that of healthy women (30±29)×10-3 pg/L (P<0.05). The IL-4 level (103±28)×10-3 pg/L of HPV infection patients was significantly higher than that of healthy women (36±22)×10-3 pg/L (P<0. 05 ). (3) IL-8 : the IL-8 level (5.8± 2.7) pg/L of TV infection patients was significantly higher than that of healthy women (2. 6±2.4) pg/L (P<0.05). The level of IL-8 between healthy women and BV patients had no significant difference. (4)HD5:the HD5 level of TV , BV, VVC, HPV and CT infection patients were significantly higher than that of healthy women (P<0.05). Conclusions (1) HD5 plays an important role in the defence of vaginal epithelial cell. (2) Th2 may be more important than Thl in lower genital tract infections.(3) IL-8 plays an important role in extrinsic source infections.

RESULTS: 1) The numbers of migrating PBMNC in group BSS was higher than that in group BD(P

Objective To compare the in-hospital and follow-up clinical results of percutaneous coronary intervention(PCI)and coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG)in patients of left ventricular dysfunction with coronary artery disease.Methods 147 patients with left ventricular dysfunction were divided into PCI group(n=60)and CABG group(n=87).Clinical,angiographic and revascularization data were collected for analysis.Patients were by SPSS 13.0 software.P value of less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant.Results In-hospital MACCE rates and mortality ofthe two groups were comparable[(6.7%vs 9.2%,P＞0.05)and(1.7%vs 8.0%,P＞0.05)].Multivariate Logistic regression analysis indicated that in-hospital MACCE risk of the two groups were similar(OR≥3.03,95%CI 0.27～34.48,P＞0.05).22-month follow-up showed no signficance in MACCE rates (16.0%vs 13.8%,P＞0.05)and in repeated revaseularization rates(8.O%vs 1.7%,P＞0.05)between the two groups.Multivariate Cox regression analysis indicated that follow-up MACCE risk of the two groups were comparable (HR≥1.35,95%C/0.44～4.13,P＞0.05).Conclusion In coronary artery disease patients with left ventricular dysfunction,PCI and CABG have similar in-hospital and long-tem MACCE rates.Long-terra effect of PCI would be further increased with the wide use of drug-eluting stents.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the genetic characteristics of a child with Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and neurodevelopmental syndrome (FSGSNEDS). METHODS: A child with FSGSNEDS who had visited Shengli Oilfield Central Hospital on September 15, 2019 was selected as the study subject. Clinical data of the child was collected, and trio-whole exome sequencing (trio-WES), Sanger sequencing, chromosomal karyotyping analysis, and copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq) were used to analyze the child and his parents. RESULTS: The child, a 3-year-old boy, had manifested developmental delay, nephrotic syndrome, and epilepsy. Trio-WES and Sanger sequencing showed that he has carried a heterozygous c.1375C＞T (p.Q459*) variant of the TRIM8 gene, for which both his parents were of the wild type. Based on guidelines from the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), the variant was predicted to be pathogenic. No abnormality was found in the chromosomal karyotyping and CNV-seq results of the child and his parents. CONCLUSION The child was diagnosed with FSGSNEDS, for which the c.1375C＞T variant of the TRIM8 gene may be accountable.

Objective To investigate the correlation between red blood cell distribution width(RDW) and in-stent restenosis(ISR)in patients with coronary heart disease after PCI.Methods A total of nine hundred and seventy-eight patients with coronary heart disease treated in Beijing Anzhen Hospital,Capital Medical University with DES stent implantation from March 2015 to March 2016 were enrolled in the study.Among them,493 patients(50.41%)underwent coronary angiography in the hospital at 6-12 months after the operation.According to the results of the angiography,the patients were divided into two groups: the ISR group and the non-ISR group.The basic data of the patients,the laboratory indexes and the coronary interventional procedures record were collected to analyze the factors that could lead to in-stent restenosis.Results 51 cases(10.34%)in the ISR group and 442 cases(89.66%)in the non-ISR group.The baseline characteristics of the two groups were similar,and there was no significant difference in gender,age, body mass index,combined with hypertension,family history of coronary heart disease,long-term administration of statin and follow-up interval(P>0.05).The proportion of patients with diabetes was significantly higher than that of the non-ISR group(37.3% vs.22.6%,P=0.021);the smoking rate was significantly higher in the ISR group(52.9% vs.35.7%,P=0.016).In terms of laboratory examination,there were no significant differences between the two groups in blood lipid levels and WBC,RBC,Hb and PLT counts between the two groups(P>0.05).The levels of serum RDW(13.4(13.00,13.80)vs.12.7(12.40,13.10),P<0.01)and hs-CRP (3.15(2.32,4.63)vs.1.33(0.63,3.16),P<0.01)were significantly increased in the patients with ISR.The stent length was longer in the ISR group((21.87 ± 5.20)mm vs.(19.14 ± 4.87)mm,P<0.01),the stent diameter was smaller((2.87±0.38)mm vs.(3.09±0.36)mm,P<0.01),the number of cases with serial stents in ISR group was higher than that in non-ISR group(45.1 % Vs 30.8%,P=0.038).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that RDW(OR=2.396,95%CI 1.655-3.471;P<0.01),hs-CRP(OR=1.052, 95%CI:1.001-1.105;P=0.044),DM(OR=2.029,95%CI:1.004-4.100;P=0.049),smoking(OR=2.252,95%CI:1.060-4.783;P=0.035),stent length(OR=1.149,95%CI:1.072-1.230;P<0.01),stent diameter(OR=0.210,95%CI:0.079-0.558;P=0.002)and serial stents(OR=2.306,95%CI:1.162-4.575;P=0.017)were independent risk factors for in-stent restenosis.Conclusion Red blood cell distribution width is an independent predictor of in-stent restenosis after PCI in patients with coronary heart disease.Chronic inflammation and oxidative stress may be the most important pathogenesis of ISR.

Objective: To investigate the tendency and safety of percutaneous umbilical cord blood sampling (PUBS) in prenatal screening and diagnosis, and the possibilities of avoiding unnecessary PUBS. Methods: This was a retrospective study of pregnant women who underwent PUBS for prenatal diagnosis in Peking University First Hospital from January 2015 to December 2017. Clinical indications, timing of PUBS, further investigations (chromosome karyotype, molecular genetics and pathogen testing), results, and pregnancy outcomes were collected and analyzed. One-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), Chi-square test for linear trend, Fisher's exact probability test/Cochran-Armitage analysis and Cruskal-Wallis rank-sum test were used for statistical analysis. Results: (1) A total of 412 singleton pregnancies underwent PUBS at 20-38 gestational weeks during the study period, and 379 (92.2%) of them received PUBS before 34 gestational weeks. The positive test results accounted for 10.4% (43/412). There were six (1.5%) miscarriages after PUBS. In vitro cell culture failure occurred in two cases, one in 2015 and the other in 2016. (2) Among the 412 cases, 304 (73.8%) had only one indication. Fourteen cases could be identified as high risk in the first trimester, such as advanced maternal age (AMA, >35 years), pregnant history with chromosomal abnormal fetus and one of the couples carrying abnormal genes. There were four, zero and one case receiving PUBS only for AMA in 2015, 2016 and 2017, respectively. Indications, including high risk suggested by serum screening and fetal abnormality found by ultrasound were identified in 290 cases (70.4%) in the second or third trimester. Other than AMA, there were no statistically significant differences in single indicators. The proportion PUBS with double indicators increased from 2015 to 2017 but without significant difference. AMA and positive serum screening as indicators of aneuploidy screening accounted for 7.6% (8/105) in double-indicator group and 1.9% (8/412) in all. (3) There were 363 PUBS (88.1%) performed for ultrasound abnormalities. Among them, 76.9% (280/363) only had abnormal ultrasound findings, and the percentage was decreased year by year. The other 83 cases (80 with double indicators and three with triple indicators) also presented with other indicators, including AMA, adverse pregnancy history and positive serum screening. The proportion of PUBS performed with the presence of multiple indicators tended to increase recently, but no statistically significant difference was found. All the 18 cases with abnormality diagnosed by molecular genetic testing had abnormal ultrasound findings. Conclusions Although PUBS's complications are rare, it carries some risks. The constitution of single indication has been declined every year. With the improvement of prenatal screening system and application of molecular karyotyping, the necessity of invasive prenatal diagnosis with PUBS is greatly reduced. An improvement in reasonable and standardized application of PUBS needs to be achieved.

Objective To characterize the baseline status of Chinese diabetic patients based on data derived from Chinese cohort from SOLVETM study.Methods Patients with type 2 diabetes initiating basal insulin detemir at the decision of the physician were eligible for the study.Data on demographics,medical history,glycemic profile and treatment regimen at baseline were collected by physicians.Results A total of 3272 patients [female 42％,male 58％,mean age (56.2 ± 10.8) years] were included in the study.Their BMI was (25.3 ± 3.3) kg/m2.The duration of diabetes was 4.0 (0.1-27.0) years,and the duration of treatment with oral antidiabetic drugs (OADs) was 3.0(0.0-20.2) years.The proportions of subjects with diabetic macro-and micro-vascular complications were 15.8％ (515 cases) and 27.1％ (866 cases),respectively.The hemoglobin Al c (HbAl c) at baseline was (8.33 ± 1.70) ％,and the fasting blood glucose (FPG) was (9.5 ± 2.6) mmol/L.Conclusions A large proportion of patients with type 2 diabetes remain in poor glycemic control,and the prevalence of diabetic complications is high,which requires optimal therapeutic strategy for the patients with suboptimal glycemic control.
