Objective To study correlation between oxygen uptaking efficiency and exercise endurance of patients with stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods From January 2013 to December 2014,50 patients with COPD plateau were selected as the research subjects,and according to the severity,28 cases of gradeⅠ -Ⅱ,22 cases of grade Ⅲ -Ⅳ.50 COPD patients with acute phase of disease were selected as disease control group.50 healthy people were selected as healthy control group.The forced vital capacity (FVC),forced expiratory volume in first second (FEV1 ),FEV1 /FVC,peak oxygen uptake (peak VO2 ),peak oxygen uptake of expected value (peak VO2% Mr Pred),oxygen uptake efficiency slope (OUES),oxygen uptake efficiency platform (OUEP),when the anaerobic threshold (OUE @ AT)such as index,and the oxygen uptake efficiency and movement endurance were detected and analyzed.Results FVC,FEV1 ,FEV1 /FVC index values of COPD group were less than those of the control group,the differences were statistically significant (all P <0.05),and COPD patients with acute phase of FVC(2.86 ±0.36)L,FEV1 (1.25 ±0.36)L,FEV1 /FVC(50.16 ±5.37)% index values were less than COPD stabilization [(3.12 ±0.46)L,(1.51 ±0.38)L,(60.16 ±6.16)%)],the differences were statistically significant (all P <0.05).The peak VO2 ,peak VO2% Mr Pred,OUES,OUEP,OUE @ AT index values of COPD group were less than those of the control group,the differences were statistically significant (all P <0.05),and COPD patients with acute phase of peak VO2 (1 072.35 ±271.21)mL/min,peak VO2%pred(62.79 ±6.31),OUES(1.59 ±0.29),OUEP (25.72 ±3.42),OUE@AT(26.75 ±3.12)index values were less than patients with COPD stabilization[(1190.67 ± 286.21)mL/min,(70.76 ±6.27),(1.89 ±0.31 ),(31.46 ±4.05 ),(31.62 ±3.16)],the differences were statistically significant (all P <0.05).As the stabilization of disease severity in patients with COPD was aggravated, peak,VO2 peak VO2% Mr Pred,OUES,OUEP,OUE @ AT declined (1 089.62 ±221.68)mL/min vs.(1236.75 ± 235.37)mL/min,(67.28 ±5.03)vs.(75.81 ±5.39),(1.62 ±0.18)vs.(2.04 ±0.25),(30.67 ±6.47)vs. (34.17 ±4.40),(30.31 ±3.42)vs.(36.59 ±3.63)(F =16.92,12.71,4.27,8.75,7.59,P <0.05).Patients with COPD stabilization OUES,OUEP,OUE @ AT peak oxygen uptake efficiency indexes and movement endurance targets were positively correlated with VO2% Mr Pred (r =0.451,0.462,0.451,P =0.019,0.012,0.26),there was a positive correlation with peak VO2 (r =0.446,0.452,0.446,P =0.023,0.011,0.29).Conclusion COPD patients oxygen uptake efficiency and movement endurance than healthy people,patients with COPD oxygen uptake efficiency and movement endurance is associated with illness and severity of COPD,and COPD patients exercise endurance on the oxygen uptake efficiency also has a certain degree of influence.

Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of low-dose recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rtPA) in Chinese patients with acute ischemic stroke. Methods Consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke received rtPA intravenous thrombolysis within 4. 5 h after symptom onset were enrol ed retrospectively. According to the dosage of rtPA, they were divided into either a low-dose group (0. 5-0. 8 mg/kg, the maximum dose 50 mg) or a standard dose group (0. 9 mg/kg, the maximum dose 90 mg). The incidences of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage ( sICH) ( the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke [NINDS], and European Cooperative Acute Stroke Study Ⅱ [ECASSⅡ] , European Safe Implementation of Thrombolysis in Stroke-Monitoring Study [ SITS-MOST ] ), 90 d mortality, 90 d good outcome (the modified Rankin Scale [mRS] score 0-1), and life self-care ability (mRS score 0-2) were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 163 patients were enrol ed, including 74 patients in the low-dose group and 89 in the standard dose group. The constituent ratios of hypertension (44. 6% vs. 68. 5%; χ2 =9. 490, P=0. 002) and diabetes (5. 4% vs. 28. 1%; χ2 =14. 216, P<0. 001) in the patients of the low-dose group were significantly lower than those of the standard group, while the constituent ratios of smoking (56. 8% vs. 38. 2%; χ2 =5. 590, P=0. 018 ) and smal artery occlusive stroke (21. 6% vs. 10. 1%; χ2 =4. 122, P=0. 042 ) in patients of the low-dose group were significantly higher than those of the standard group. After adjusting for age, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score, hypertension, diabetes, smoking, and ischemic stroke typing, multivariate binary logistic analysis showed that there were no significant differences in NINDS defined sICH (10. 8% vs. 9. 0%, odds ratio [OR] 1. 077, 95%confidence interval [CI] 0. 338-3. 436), ECASS Ⅱdefined sICH ( 9. 5% vs. 9. 0%; OR 0. 976, 95% CI 0. 296- 3. 221 ), SITS-MOST defined sICH (8. 1% vs. 4. 5%; OR 2. 269, 95% CI 0. 522-9. 852), 90 d mortality (17. 6% vs. 14. 6%; OR 1. 720, 95% CI 0. 578-5. 119), 90 d good outcome (35. 1% vs. 32. 6%;OR 0. 780, 95% CI 0. 356-1. 709), and life self-care ability (48. 6% vs. 42. 7%;OR 0. 936, 95% CI 0. 441-1. 987) between the 2 groups (al P>0. 05). Conclusions The program of intravenous thrombolysis for the treatment of Chinese patients with acute ischemic stroke with low-dose rtPA is safe and effective.

Objective To investigate the risk factors for the occurrence of cerebral infarction in patients with capsular warning syndrome (CWS). Methods Consecutive patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) meeting the CWS clinical manifestations were col ected retrospectively. They were divided into either a cerebral infarction group or a non-cerebral infarction group according to the brain diffusion weighted imaging findings. The independent risk factors for patients with CWS were identified through the comparison of demographic and baseline clinical data. Results A total of 39 patients were enrol ed, including 25 males (64. 1%) and 14 females (35. 9%), and their mean age was 58. 9 ± 10. 3 years. There were 21 patients in the cerebral infarction group and 18 in the non-cerebral infarction group. Compared with the non-cerebral infarction group, the age of patients in the cerebral infarction group was older (62. 5 ± 9. 3 years vs. 54. 8 ± 10. 2 years;t=2. 470, P=0. 018). The constituent ratio of the patients with a history of previous stroke or transient ischemic attack was higher (33. 3% vs. 5. 6%; P=0. 049), the fasting blood glucose level was higher (8. 2 ± 3. 2 mmol/L vs. 6. 0 ± 1. 3 mmol/L; t=2. 748, P=0. 009), and ABCD2 score was higher (5. 2 ± 1. 1 vs. 3. 5 ± 1. 1;t=4. 734, P<0. 001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the ABCD2 score was an independent risk factor for cerebral infarction in patients with CWS (odds ratio, 4. 529, 95% confidence interval 1. 233-16. 627;P=0. 023). Conclusions The higher ABCD2 score was an independent risk factor for the occurrence of cerebral infarction in patients with CWS. It can be used as an evaluation tool for predicting the risk of cerebral infarction in patients with CWS.

Objective To investigate the influencing factors of in-hospital delay using alteplase for intravenous thrombolytic therapy in patients with acute ischemic stroke.Methods From January 2006 to May 2015,220 consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke admitted to the Department of Neurology,Tangshan Gongren Hospital Affiliated to North China University of Science and Technology were enrolled retrospectively.They all received alteplase for intravenous thrombolytic therapy.Their mean National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score on admission was 16±8.According to door-to-needle time (DNT),they were divided into either a delay group (DNT >60 min;n=151) or a non-delay group (DNT ≤60 min;n=69).The baseline data,laboratory tests,onset-to-door (OTD) time,imaging,and etiology classification of trial of org 10172 in acute stroke treatment (TOAST) of both groups were recorded.Univariate analysis was performed on both groups,and further multivariate logistic analysis was performed.Results (1) The proportion of the past history of transient ischemic attack,blood glucose level on admission,time from onset to hospital in the non-delay group were significantly higher than those of the delay group.There were significant differences between the two groups (43.5%[30/69] vs.3.3%[5/151],7.9±3.0 mmol/L vs.6.9±2.1 mmol/L,95±53 min vs.80±34 min,all P<0.05).There were significant differences in the constituent ratio of TOAST classification between the two groups (P<0.05).There were no significant differences in other baseline data and clinical features between the two groups (all P>0.05).(2) Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the risks of patients with the past history of transient ischemic attack (OR,0.330,95%CI 0.109-0.998,P=0.046),elevated blood glucose levels on admission (OR,0.775,95%CI 0.657-0.914,P=0.005),prolonged onset-to-door time (OR,0.648,95%CI 0.504-0.831,P=0.013),internal carotid artery lesions (OR,0.192,95%CI 0.038-0.960,P=0.044) for occurring in-hospital delay after thrombolysis were low.Systolic pressure on admission(OR,1.275,95%CI 1.091-1.491,P=0.027)and cardioembolism(OR,3.892,95%CI 1.661-9.112,P=0.006) for occurring in-hospital delay after thrombolysisin were high.Conclusion The patients with past history of transient ischemic attack,higher blood glucose,prolonged onset-to-door time,and having internal carotid artery lesions may be cause the attention of family members and doctors,and were less prone to having thrombolytic in-hospital delay,whereas those with higher systolic blood pressure on admission and cardioembolism were prone to having in-hospital delay.

Objective To explore the association between estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and prognosis of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients who were treated by intravenous thrombolysis with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA).Methods We consecutively screened AIS patients who were treated by intravenous thrombolysis with rt-PA from January 2006 to September 2016 in Tangshan Gongren Hospital.According to eGFR value of patients at admission,the eligible patients were divided into two groups:normal eGFR group (eGFR ≥ 90 ml ? min-1 ? 1.73 m-2) and decreased eGFR group (eGFR ＜ 90 ml? min-1 ? 1.73 m-2).The incidence of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (SICH),early neurological deterioration (END) at 24 hours and seven days after thrombolysis,mortality within seven days and 90 days,and excellent recovery at 90 days were compared between the two groups.The OR with 95％ CI and the adjusted OR with 95％ CI were analyzed by univariate and multivariate Logistic regression models.Results A total of 258 patients were enrolled,including 182 cases in the normal eGFR group and 76 cases in the decreased eGFR group.After adjusting for the potential confounders,multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the rates of SICH (13.2％ (10/76) vs 3.3％ (6/182),OR =3.859,95％ CI 1.313-11.341),END at 24 hours (21.1％ (16/76) vs 8.2％ (15/182),OR =2.958,95％ CI 1.347-6.495) and seven days (32.9％ (25/76) vs 12.6％ (23/182),OR =3.129,95％ CI 1.555-6.293),mortality within seven days (22.4％ (17/76) vs 6.0％ (11/182),OR =4.079,95％ CI 1.588-10.477) and 90 days (23.7％ (18/76) vs 9.9％ (18/182),OR =2.457,95％ CI 1.050-5.749) were higher in the decreased eGFR group than in the normal eGFR group.On the other hand,the chance of excellent recovery at 90 days (22.4％ (17/76) vs 43.4％ (79/182),OR =0.435,95％ CI 0.229-0.824) was less in the decreased eGFR group than in the normal eGFR group.Conclusion Decreased eGFR may not only increase the risks of SICH,END and death,but also reduce the chance of 90-day excellent recovery in AIS patients after intravenous thrombolysis with rt-PA.
