4.Effects of angiotensinogen gene polymorphisms on the risk of coronary heart disease in the Chinese population: a meta-analysis
Journal of Geriatric Cardiology 2010;07(3):152-156
Objective Coronary heart disease (CHD) is a multifactorial disease. This meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship between angiotensinogen gene polymorphisms and CHD in the Chinese population. Methods We searched literature in pubmed (1990-2010.8) and CNKI (1990-2010.8) for all the relevant studies on 2 angiotensinogen polymorphisms (M235T and T174M) and risk of CHD. The meta-analysis software Stata 10.0 was used for ascertaining heterogeneity among individual studies and for combining all the studies. Furthermore,Egger's test and sensitivity analysis were performed to insure authenticity of the outcome.Results Ten associations studies on 2 angiotensinogen polymorphisms (M235T and T174M) were included in this meta-analysis. In a combined analysis, the summary per-allele odds ratio for CHD of the M235T polymorphism was 1.374 (95% confidence interval, 1.019 to 1.852) and T174M polymorphism was 4.089 (95% confidence interval, 1.697 to 9.851). Conclusions The M235T polymorphism had weak but statistically significant association with CHD while the T174M polymorphism was more strongly associated with a CHD risk in Chinese population, but further confirmation studies are needed.
5.Prediction value of procalcitonin for acute kidney injury in patients with acute pancreatitis
The Journal of Practical Medicine 2014;(20):3329-3331
Objective To study the clinical value of procalcitonon (PCT) for predicting development of acute kidney injury and outcomes in patients with acute pancreatitis (AP). Methods 205 inpatients with acute pancreatitis in our hospital were enrolled in our study during January 2012 to March 2013. According to acute kidney injury (AKI) occurred in three consecutive days or not, the patients were divided into AKI group (n = 32) and control group (n=173). Crea, Urea, CysC and PCT, serum amyloid A (SAA), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and C reactive protein (CRP) were analyzed. The predictive validity of these indicators was constructed by receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve. Results PCT, IL-6, and CRP level of AKI group showed significant higher in AKI group than control group (P<0.05). However, there were no statistically significant difference of the level of Urea, Crea, Cys C and SAA between the two groups (P>0.05). The AUC value of PCT showed significant higher than the AUC value of CRP, IL-6 and SAA(P<0.05). Conclusion PCT is a early, sensitive, specific biomarker for predicting AKI of patients with AP.
6.Sonographic appearance of corpus luteum in early pregnance in gray-scale,color and pulsed Doppler ultrasonography
Chinese Journal of Ultrasonography 1993;0(03):-
Objective To understand the gray-scale, color and pulsed Doppler sonographic feature of the corpus luteum during the early trimester of pregnancy. Methods The ovaries of 174 patients with intrauterine gestations between 5 to 9 weeks' menstrual age were examined with transvaginal sonography. Size, sonographic appearance, color Doppler feature, resistance index, peak systolic velocity of the corpus letuem were recorded. Results The corpus luteum was identified in 169 of 174 patients(97.1%) . The mean diameter was ( 1.7 ? 0.8 ) cm. The gray-scale appearances were classified into four types:a thin wall cyst(47 patients, 27.8 %), a thick wall simple cyst(45 patients, 26.6 %), a round hypoechoic structure(43 patients, 25.4 %), a thin-walled cyst containing internal debris (34 patients, 20.1 %). Color blood flow was visualized with color Doppler imaging in 92.3 %(156/169). Color Doppler imaging typically revealed a circumferential rim surrounding part or all of the corpus luteum. Low-resistance blood flow was seen with pulsed Doppler, with a mean resistance index of 0.41?0.10 . Conclusions The corpus lutuem in early pregnancy is identified with transvaginal sonography and has different sonographic appearances. It is important to recognize the various appearances of the corpus lutuem to avoidits confusion with true ovarian abnormalities and ectopic pregnancy.
