Objective To analyze the incidence and related risk factors of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients with deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in the respiratory intensive care unit (RICU).Methods We recruited 204 patients from RICU of our hospital between January 2015 and December 2015.The basic clinical data of the patients were also collected.Bedside venous ultrasonography of double lower limbs was taken 24-48 hours after admission.The patients were divided into DVT group and non-DVT group.The clinical data of the two groups were analyzed and compared using Chi-square test or t test,Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze risk factors,and ROC curve analysis was used to identify the disease.Results Among the 204 patients,39 were identified with DVT,with the overall incidence rate of 19.1%.D-dimer in DVT group was significantly higher than that in non-DVT group (P<0.001).The two groups did not significantly differ in age,sex,smoking history,underlying diseases,or other laboratory test results.The area under the ROC curve of D-dimer was 0.787,and the cut off value was 1.985 mg/L (sensitivity of 0.641,specificity of 0.817).Conclusion D-dimer is closely associated with increased incidence of DVT in COPD patients.
7.Endovascular treatment of infrapopliteal artery occlusion: clinical practice and thinking of present hot issues
Journal of Interventional Radiology 2017;26(6):481-485
Critical lower limb ischemia(CLI) is a severe manifestation of arteriosclerosis obliterans of lower extremity,infrapopliteal artery occlusion is an important cause of CLI.Both limb salvage and life quality improvement are therapeutic targets for CLI.With the development of technology and equipment,endovascular treatment has become the main means for infrapopliteal arterial occlusive diseases.Because of the unique anatomic features of infrapopliteal artery,great therapeutic difficulty and high incidence of restenosis,a series of controversial issues have been emerged.The main controversial issues are as follows:(1) Which should be taken as first choice of treatment,endovascular therapy or traditional bypass surgery? (2) How to select target vessels in treating infrapopliteal artery occlusion? (3) How to select optimal access in performing endovascular treatment of infrapopliteal artery? (4) How to optimize the endovascular surgical method for infrapopliteal arterial occlusive disease? Based on the latest advance in evidence-based medicine and on the clinical treatment experience,this paper aims to make a detailed description concerning the above mentioned hot issues in clinical practice as well as in academic consideration about endovascular treatment of infrapopliteal arterial occlusive diseases.
8.Protective effects of piperine on alveolar bone and collagen in a periodontitis model
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2016;20(40):6034-6040
BACKGROUND:Piperine in models of pancreatitis, gout, middle cerebral artery infarction has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and immune regulatory effects, but its effects on periodontitis model are not clear.
OBJECTIVE:To observe the protective effect of piperine on bone absorption and degradation of col agen in experimental rat models of periodontitis.
METHODS:Rat models of periodontitis were established by ligaturing the dental cervix of rat mandibular first molar with 3-0 silk. On day 1 before model establishment, rats were intragastrical y administered piperine 50 and 100 mg/kg. There were healthy control group and model group. Related detection was performed 8 weeks after model establishment.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Results of quantitative CT analysis:compared with the healthy control group, the distance from the first molar enamelo-cemental junction to the alveolar ridge crest was significantly lower in the model group (P<0.05). The degree of alveolar damage was significantly improved in the 50 and 100 mg/kg piperine groups compared with the model group (P<0.05). (2) Related factor protein expression:compared with the model group, matrix metal oproteinase-8,-13 and interleukin-1βprotein expression was significantly decreased in the 100 mg/kg piperine group (P<0.05);matrix metal oproteinase-8 protein expression was significantly decreased in the 50 mg/kg piperine group (P<0.05). (3) Col agen fiber morphology:compared with the model group, col agen fibers arranged orderly and col agen fiber area significantly increased in the 50 and 100 mg/kg piperine groups (P<0.05). (4) Results confirmed that piperine could reduce the alveolar bone resorption, reduce the degradation of col agen fibers and protect the periodontal tissues in models of periodontitis. Its mechanism is associated with the inhibition of matrix metal oproteinase-8,-13 and interleukin-1βprotein expression.
