Objective To explore the correlation of pulmonary heart disease (PHD) with erythrocyte immunity function and serum erythropoietin(EPO)level. Methods Forty-eight patients with PHD were selected as PHD group, while forty people were chosen as control group. The erythrocyte C3b receptor (E-C3bRR), erythrocyte immunity complex (RBC-ICR) and serum EPO content were detected by yeast rosette method and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA),and blood gas indexes were examined by blood gas analyser.Results The E-C3bRR and serum EPO content were lower, while the RBC-ICR was higher in PHD group than in control group(both P< 0. 01). Compared with control group, PCOz and HCO3-levels were higher, but blood oxygen saturation(SaO2) level was lower in the PHD group than in control group(both P<0. 01). There were no differences in pH value and PO2between two groups(both P>0. 05). The E-C3bRR was positively related to serum EPO content (r=0. 623, P<0.01), and HCO3-was positively related to pH value and PCO2(r=0. 219 ,P<0. 05;r=0. 585,P<0. 01) ,whereas PCO2was negatively related to pH value(r=-0. 529,P<0.01),and PO2was positively related to SaO2(r=0. 682,P<0.01)in PHD group. Conclusions There is a correlation between E-C3bRR and serum EPO content in PHD patients.

Objective To evaluate the clinical safety and feasibility of dual-axis rotational coronary angiography (XperSwing) in diagnosing coronary artery disease in aged Chinese patients through comparing it with standard coronary angiography. Methods During the period from April 2011 to December 2012, a total of consecutive 151 patients with an age ≥ 65 years underwent diagnostic coronary angiography at authors’ hospital. The patients were randomly divided into the standard angiography group (n = 75) and XperSwing group (n = 76). The used dose of contrast, radiation exposure dose and operation time of each patient were recorded. Besides, the occurrence of procedure-related symptoms and arrhythmia during the procedure was recorded, and the blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR) and creatinine level immediately before-and-after the procedure were estimated. The number of additional acquisition needed to be performed was used to evaluate the efficacy of the two methods. Results Coronary angiography was successfully accomplished in all patients of the two groups, and no significant difference in the number of additional acquisition existed between the two groups (P > 0.05). The used dose of contrast in XperSwing group was reduced by 44% when compared with that in the standard angiography group, i.e. (29.28 ± 5.06) ml vs(22 755.97 ± 11 239.22) mGycm2, (P<0.001). No statistically significant differences in the occurrence of procedure-related symptoms and arrhythmia during the procedure, in the operation time as well as in the postoperative changes of BP and HR existed between the two groups (P > 0.05). No contrast- induced nephropathy occurred in both groups, although the difference in postoperative changes of creatinine level between the two groups was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion This study indicates that in diagnosing coronary artery disease in aged Chinese patients, dual-axis rotational coronary angiography is more safe and effective than conventional coronary angiography, as XperSwing can significantly reduce the contrast dose and radiation exposure for the patients.

Objective To analyze the etiology and prognosis of children with thrombocytopenia (TP) in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU). Methods The data of children with TP (exclusion of congenital and unknown TP) admitted to PICU of Anhui Provincial Children's Hospital from January 2008 to December 2017 was analyzed retrospectively. According to the age of onset, the children were divided into infantile group (29 days to less than 1 year), early childhood group (1 to less than 3 years), preschool group (3 to less than 6 years), school age group (6 to less than 10 years) and puberty group (more than 10 years). Moreover, according to the lowest platelet count (PLT), the children were divided into PLT≤20×109/L group, PLT (21-50)×109/L group and PLT > (50-100) ×109/L group. The distribution and mortality of TP were analyzed, and the relationship between age, PLT decrease and prognosis were analyzed by Pearson method. Results Among 6 725 children admitted to PICU in our hospital from January 2008 to December 2017, there were 683 children with TP, with the incidence of 10.2%. Among 683 children with TP, there were 387 males and 296 females, with the median age of 2.72 (0.61, 3.08) years, and 92 children died, with a total mortality of 13.5%. Analysis of primary disease showed that TP caused by non-hematological malignant tumor disease accounted for 73.9%, with the mortality of 11.1% (56/505). TP induced by hematological malignant tumor disease accounted for 21.4%, with the mortality of 24.7% (36/146). Pseudothrombocytopenia accounted for 0.6%, with the mortality of 0% (0/4). Other children who gave up treatment accounted for 4.1%. It was shown by further analysis that multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) caused by TP associated with non-hematological malignant tumor disease accounted for 26.9%, with the mortality of 15.4% (21/136). Sepsis, severe trauma, pneumonia, central nervous system infection and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) accounted for 17.4%, 16.6%, 12.7%, 11.7% and 11.5%; with the mortality of 8.0% (7/88), 2.4% (2/84), 0% (0/64), 20.3% (12/59) and 24.1% (14/58), respectively. The main causes of TP associated with hematological malignant tumor disease were hemophagocytic syndrome [accounting for 27.4%, with the mortality of 32.5% (13/40)] and bone marrow inhibition [accounting for 21.2%, with the mortality of 25.8% (8/31)]. The younger were the children with TP, the higher would be the mortality. The mortality of infantile group was significantly higher than that of early childhood group, preschool group, school age group and puberty group [18.8% (53/282) vs. 14.0% (28/200), 6.7% (7/104), 4.3% (4/92), 0% (0/5), all P < 0.01]. The lower was the PLT, the higher would be the mortality. The mortality of PLT≤20×109/L group was significantly higher than that of PLT (21-50)×109/L group and PLT > (50-100)×109/L group [18.1% (39/215) vs. 13.0% (32/247), 9.5% (21/221), both P < 0.05]. It was shown by correlation analysis that there was no association between age and 28-day death time in children with TP (r = -0.037, P = 0.727), but PLT was positively correlated with 28-day death time in children with TP (r = 0.844, P = 0.010). Conclusions MODS, infection, sepsis, severe trauma and DIC are the common causes of TP in PICU. The younger are the children with TP, the lower is the PLT, and the worse would be the prognosis.

Objective To explore mood disorders after left and right cerebral hemisphere injury,to search for possible mechanisms and to provide the basis for designing rehabilitation protocols and assessing prognosis.Methods Fifty-one cases with brain injury were recruited from a rehabilitation center and divided into left and right hemisphere injury groups with 26 and 25 cases,respectively.Hamilton rating scale for depression (HRSD) scores were analyzed. Results The left hemisphere patients had significantly higher HRSD total scores and higher scores indicating 15 kinds of mood disorders (depression,feelings of guilt,suicidal thoughts etc.).Right hemisphere injury patients had significantly higher diurnal variation,depersonalization or derealization and paranoid symptoms. Conclusions The lateralization of the cerebral hemispheres may display itself in mood and emotion.After left or right hemisphere injury,the depression presentation is different,so treatment,prognosis assessment and psychological intervention should be different for left and right hemisphere injuries.
