Objective To explore the acquired deficiencies of vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors in etiology, clinical characteristics and treatment. Methods Retrospective analysis was performed on the data of etiology, clinical manifestations of 45 patients with acquired deficiencies of vitamin K-dependent coagulation factor. All patients were treated with Vitamin K1 10 -40 mg/d, i. v. , for three months. Some patients with severe blooding were additionally treated with fresh freezing plasma or prothromibin complex. Prothrombin time(PT) and activated partial thromboplastic time(APTT) were measured using Stago automatic blood coagulation analyzer before and after treatment. Ⅱ , Ⅶ, Ⅸ and Ⅹ were measured in some patients. Results Among the 45 cases, no certain cause was found in 19 cases (42.2%), anticoagulant rodenticides poison was a common cause ( 11 cases,42.3% ). The main presentations was hemorrhage, the most common bleeding sites were mucosa (77.8%) (35/45)and hematuria (46.7%) ( 21/45 ). After vitamin K1 treatment, PT and APTT had shortened remarkably from ( 110.35 ± 35.36 ) s,(98.91 ±48.98)s to (13.48 ±2. 17)s,(33.25 ±6.95)s,respectively(t=19.10 and 6.19,Ps <0.01)and the activities of factor Ⅱ、Ⅶ、Ⅸ、Ⅹ had rapidly increased from ( 17.48 ± 10.93 ) %, ( 10.23 ± 5.68 )%, ( 11.98 ±4.69)%,(12.93±7.48)% to (70. 12 ±21.31)%,(92.76 ±29. 15)%,(88.64 ±40. 21)%,(63.97 ±20.11)%(t=12.13,14.43,13.27and9. 74,respectively,Ps<0. 01).Conclusions The histories of patients with acquired deficiencies of vitamin K-dependent coagulation factors are usually hiding, therefore it is easily misdiagnosed. It is worth of detecting PT and APTT in diagnosis and monitoring. Using vitamin K1 10 -40 mg/d is effective and safety.

Objective To investigate the effects of ulinastatin on pulmonary and hepatorenal function of elderly patients undergoing resection of esophageal cancer. Methods The clinical data of 40 elderly patients with esophageal cancer who had been admitted to Southwest Hospital from January 2005 to January 2008 were retrospectively analyzed. All the patients were randomly divided into control group (n = 20) and ulinastatin group (n = 20) according to random number table. Patients were administered with total parenteral nutrition, and patients in ulinaslatin group were additionally instilled with 4×10~5 U/d of ulinastatin. The levels of PaO_2, PaCO_2, PaO_2/FiO_2, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), total bilirubin (Tbil), blood urea nitrogen, creatinine and uric acid were detected preoperatively and at postoperative day 2 and day 6. All the data were analyzed by t-test and chi-square test. Results The levels of PaO_2 and PaO_2/FiO_2 were (87.3±4.2) mm Hg (1 mm Hg =0.133 kPa) and (416±20)mm Hg in ulinastatin group, which were significantly higher than (79.0±4.3)mm Hg and (376±20)mm Hg in control group (t =6.2, 6.2, P <0.05). The levels of ALT, AST and Tbil were (23±7)U/L, (38±8)U/L and (13.4±3.0) μmol/L in ulinastatin group, and (39±8) U/L, (50±9) U/L and (24.5±6.0) μmol/L in control group, with significant difference between the 2 groups (t = 7.0, 4.4, 7.6, P < 0.05). The levels of uric acid, blood urea nitrogen and creatinine were (279±84) μmol/L, (4.1±1.7) mmol/L and (66±12) μmol/L in ulinastatin group, and (386±67)μmol/L, ( 8.9±2.7) mmol/L and (95±38) μmol/L in control group, with significant difference between the 2 groups (t = 4.4, 6.4, 3.3, P < 0.05). The recurrence of complications in ulinastatin group was significantly lower than that in control group (χ~2 = 4.8, P <0.05). Conclusion Postoperative supplementation of ulinastatin and total parenteral nutrition is helpful in improving the pulmonary and hepatorenal function of elderly patients undergoing resection of esophageal cancer.
