ObjectiveTo explore the role of parameters of organ function during heat stroke (HS) on the prognosis, and to form the treatment strategy through an analysis of parameters of organ function during HS. Methods A retrospective study was conducted. Thirty-seven patients with HS (HS group) and 54 patients with mild-to-moderate stroke (stroke group) admitted to Zhejiang Xiaoshan Hospital from 2011 to 2014 were enrolled. The experimental results of organs function indicators for patients were recorded including:① cardiac markers:troponin I (TnI);② myocardium zymogram: creatine kinase (CK), MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase (CK-MB), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST);③ renal function indexes: blood urea nitrogen (BUN), uric acid (UA), and serum creatinine (SCr);④ electrolyte: serum K+, Na+, and Cl-;⑤coagulation function: prothrombin time (PT), international normalized ratio (INR), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), thrombin time (TT), fibrinogen (FIB), and D-dimer;⑥ blood gas analysis: pH value, arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2), base excess (BE), standard bicarbonate (SB), and actual bicarbonate (AB);⑦ routine blood test: blood platelet count (PLT);⑧ hepatic function: alanine aminotransferase (ALT). Abnormal rates of laboratory parameters of 37 HS patients were statistically analyzed. Various laboratory parameters of organs function as well as the initial value and extreme value (maximum or minimum value) during treatment of CK and PLT in HS patients were compared between two groups.Results The abnormal rates of 37 HS patients were more than 70%, including incipient value of TnI, CK, LDH, AST, serum Na+, ALT, D-dimer, PaCO2, AB, maximum value of CK, and minimum value of PLT, the abnormal rates being 73.0%, 70.3%, 81.1%, 78.4%, 78.4%, 70.3%, 70.3%, 70.3%, 75.7%, 81.1%, 75.7%, respectively. The abnormal rates of other parameters were less than 70%. There were significant differences in incipient value of TnI, CK, LDH, AST, serum K+, serum Na+, D-dimer, and PLT between HS group and mild-to-moderate stroke group [TnI (μg/L): 0.087 (0.026, 0.306) vs. 0.007 (0.004, 0.110),Z = -7.017,P = 0.000;CK (U/L): 392.30 (287.60, 524.10) vs. 137.10 (106.33, 607.80),Z = -7.930,P = 0.000; LDH (U/L): 317.98±122.74 vs. 207.85±57.71, t = 1.678,P = 0.000; AST (U/L): 94.90 (52.80, 155.80) vs. 26.10 (18.13, 317.40),Z = -6.157, P = 0.000; serum K+ (mmol/L): 3.46±0.65 vs. 3.86±0.57,t = 1.662,P = 0.001; serum Na+ (mmol/L): 129.75±7.34 vs. 138.79±4.26,t = 1.674,P = 0.000; D-dimer (mg/L): 2.53 (0.63, 6.00) vs. 0.30 (0.21, 9.71),Z = -5.084, P = 0.000; PLT (×109/L): 144.62±86.14 vs. 219.48±64.76,t = 1.669,P = 0.000]. There were also statistically significant differences in the initial value and extreme value of CK and PLT between HS group and mild-to-moderate stroke group [CK (U/L): 392.30 (287.60, 524.10) vs. 721.50 (546.30, 964.10),Z = -6.351,P = 0.000; PLT (×109/L):132.40±82.55 vs. 68.24±44.62,t = 1.688,P = 0.000].Conclusions HS can impair several organs and systems, having complications, and it is a heavy insult for body.

Objective To study the expression of signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) in human renal clear cell carcinoma (RCC) and the effect of STATI inhibition on the radiosensi-tivity of RCC. Methods The expression of STAT1 in 34 human RCC samples compared with 12 normal kid-ney tissues was examined by immunohistochemistry method. For in vitro experiments, a human RCC cell line, CRL-1932, was used. Western blotting was performed to evaluate the expression of total and phospory-lated STAT1. Fludarabine and siRNA were respectively used to inhibit the expression of STAT1 in CRL-1932 cells. Clonogenic assay and trypan blue staining assay were used to evaluate the radiosensitivity of CRL-1932 cells. Results The expression of both total and phospborylated STAT1 in human RCC samples was signifi-cantly higher when compared to normal kidney tissues. Similarly, the expression of STAT1 was higher in CRL-1932 cells when compared to fibroblast and Wilm's tumor cell lines. STAT1 expression was inhibited by both fludarabine and siRNA. Radiosensitivity of CRL-1932 cells was enhanced by both fludarabine and siRNA induced STAT1 inhibition. Conclusions STAT1 is over-expressed in both human RCC tissue and cell line. Inhibition of STAT1 can enhance the radiosensitivity of RCC cells.
