Objective To set up a warning diagnostic model by using the commonly used clinical indicators in an attempt to provide a basis for the early,fast and accurate diagnosis of posttraumatic sepsis.Methods Based on the presence of sepsis,165 patients were grouped into sepsis group (n =45) and non-sepsis group (n =120).Body temperature,respiration,heart rate,C-reactive protein(CRP),white blood cell,blood platelet count(PLT),activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT),acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score and sepsis-related organ failure assessment(SOFA) score were tested to identify the independent predictors of sepsis.Warning diagnostic models of unweighted score (unwScore) and weighted score (wScore) for posttraumatic sepsis were constructed by combining the independent variables.Receiver operation characteristic curve (ROC) was used to evaluate the independent predictor and warning diagnostic models for posttraumatic sepsis.Results Body temperature,respiration,heart rate,CRP,APACHE Ⅱ score and SOFA score were significantly different between the two groups(P < 0.05).Multiple analysis showed body temperature,CRP and APACHE Ⅱ score were independently associated with sepsis.With the ROC analysis,areal under the curve (AUC),sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value and negative predictive value of unwScore (0.915,0.87,0.85,69.64% and 94.50%) and wScore (0.931,0.96,0.78,63.24% and 97.85%) were better than these of body temperature (0.855,0.84,0.78,59.38% and 93.07%),CRP (0.761,0.64,0.80,55.77% and 85.84%) and APACHE Ⅱ (0.884,0.84,0.82,64.41% and 93.40%).Conclusions Body temperature,CRP and APACHE Ⅱ score are independent predictors of sepsis.Models combining body temperature,CRP and APACHE Ⅱ score demonstrate high performance in diagnosing sepsis in trauma patients.

OBJECTIVE:To provide reference for improving the rationality of perioperative prophylactic application of antibiotics in typeⅠincision operation of neurosurgery. METHODS:Medical records of 794 patients with typeⅠincision operation of neurosurgery were collected from our hospital during Jan.-Dec. 2016 in order to retrospectively investigate the perioperative prophylactic application of antibiotics and evaluate the rationality of drug use. RESULTS:Among all the 794 cases,433 used antibiotics for prophylaxis (single type was used in all cases),with utilization rate of 54.53%. Cefazolin(51.73%)and cefuroxime(21.48%)were the most frequently used antibiotics. The prophylactic application rate of 30 min-1 h before surgery was 85.45% in 433 patients. Patients with prophylactic medication course≤24 h accounted for 68.36%. The main irrational drug use manifestations were long medication time(31.64%)and improper antibiotics selection(26.10%);other manifestations included improper medication timing(14.55%),etc. CONCLUSIONS:Unreasonable perioperative prophylactic application of antibiotics in typeⅠincision operation of neurosurgery exists in our hospital,such as improper drug selection,improper medication timing,long medication course. It is necessary to further strengthen the comprehensive interventions,so as to promote the rational use of antibiotics.

Objective:To investigate the construction of containing CT imaging features Nomograms model of postoperative intraluminal thromus (ILT) formation in patients with aortic dissective aneurysm (ADA).Methods:One hundred and twenty patients with Stanford type B ADA treated with overlapping stent endoluminal repair and multilayer spiral CT (MSCT) examination in Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical College from May 2020 to February 2022 were selected. The patients were divided into the modeling population (84 patients) and the validation population (36 patients) according to a 7∶3 ratio. The factors influencing postoperative ILT formation in ADA patients were analyzed by univariate and Logistic multifactor regression models, and the prediction model of postoperative ILT formation was constructed based on the influencing factors.Results:In the modeled population, the rate of ILT formation within 1 month after luminal repair with overlapping stents was 27.38%(23/84), including 5 cases in the aortic arch and 18 cases in the abdominal aorta. In the modeled population, the results of univariate analysis showed that the sex, age, body mass index(BMI), smoking, drinking, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, rupture diameter, rupture distance from left subclavicular artery, involvement of important branches, uneven thickening of aneurysm wall, low density on plain scan and operation timing between the ILT formation group and non-ILT formation group had no statistically significant ( P>0.05). The diabetes mellitus, irregular inner wall, calcified plaque, postoperative anticoagulant therapy, B-type brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), fibrinogen (Fib), D-dimer (D-D) and C-reactive protein (CRP) between the two groups had statistical differences: 43.48%(10/23) vs. 11.48%(7/61), 86.96%(20/23) vs. 57.38%(35/61), 91.30%(21/23) vs. 62.30%(38/61), 21.74%(5/23) vs. 57.38%(35/61), (523.60 ± 128.74) ng/L vs.(271.83 ± 109.65) ng/L, (3.82 ± 0.96) g/L vs. (2.85 ± 0.83) g/L, (601.37 ± 75.62) μg/L vs. (389.20 ± 68.79)μg/L, (0.63 ± 0.19) mg/L vs. (0.48 ± 0.15) mg/L, P<0.05. The results of Logistic multifactor regression analysis showed that diabetes mellitus, irregular inner wall, calcified plaque, postoperative anticoagulant therapy and BNP, Fib, D-D CRP levels were influential factors for postoperative ILT formation in Stanford type B ADA patients ( P<0.05). The C-index of the model was 0.903 and 0.894 for the modeled and validated populations, respectively, which had good discrimination and was good at predicting ILT formation after operation in Stanford type B ADA patients. The model had good clinical utility in predicting postoperative ILT formation in Stanford B ADA patients. Conclusions:The Nomograms model can help to screen and identify patients with high risk of ILT formation at an early clinical stage.

Objective:To explore the feasibility of mismatch of amide proton transfer weighted (APTw) imaging with diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) in evaluating ischemic penumbra (IP) in patients with wake-up stroke.Methods:A prospective study was performed; 96 patients with wake-up stroke and unilateral middle cerebral artery territory infarction admitted to Emergency Stroke Department, Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from September 2020 to January 2023 were chosen. All patients underwent routine MRI, DWI, APTw imaging and 3D arterial spin labeling (3D-ASL) before treatment and 90 d after treatment. IP presence was defined as changes of abnormal signal on T2-fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) 90 d after treatment greater than 20% of high signal range on DWI before treatment, and it was used as the gold standard to compare the efficacy in evaluating whether the patients had IP based on mismatch of 3D-ASLwith DWI and mismatch of APTw imaging with DWI before treatment. The infarct core (IC) region, mismatch region of APTw imaging with DWI, mismatch region of 3D-ASL with APTw imaging were delineated on the fusion images in patients with IP based on mismatch of 3D-ASLwith DWI and mismatch of APTw with DWI, and the differences of APTw values in different regions were compared.Results:According to the 90-d follow-up results, 50 patients had IP and 46 patients did not have IP. Specificity, accuracy and sensitivity evaluating whether the patients had IP based on mismatch of 3D-ASL with DWI were 86.9%, 93.7% and 100.0%, respectively; specificity, accuracy and sensitivity evaluating whether the patients had IP based on mismatch of APTw imaging with DWI were 100.0%, 95.8% and 92.0%, respectively. The APTw max, APTw min and APTw ave values of the IC region were significantly lower than those of mismatch region of APTw with DWI, and the APTw max-min values of mismatch region of APTw imaging with DWI were significantly higher than those of mismatch region of 3D-ASL with APTw imaging ( P<0.05). Conclusion:APTw imaging can reflect the acidosis status of different brain regions in patients with wake-up stroke; specificity and accuracy evaluating whether the patients have IP based on mismatch of APTw imaging with DWI are higher than those based on mismatch of 3D-ASL with DWI.

Blast injury of the chest injury is the most common wound in modern war trauma and terrorist attacks, and is also the most fatal type of whole body explosion injury. Most patients with severe blast injury of the chest die in the early stage before hospitalization or during transportation, so first aid is critically important. At present, there exist widespread problems such as non-standard treatment and large difference in curative effect, while there lacks clinical treatment standards for blast injury of the chest. According to the principles of scientificity, practicality and advancement, the Trauma Society of Chinese Medical Association has formulated the guidance of classification, pre-hospital first aid, in-hospital treatment and major injury management strategies for blast injury of the chest, aiming to provide reference for clinical diagnosis and treatment.

Carotid is in a high risk of atherosclerosis due to its special geometric features and complex flow characteristics. Various biomechanical parameters are practical tools for carotid risk assessment. It has beenwidely accepted that oscillatory low shear environment promotes plaque formation. Based on this, more and more biomechanical indexes have been proposed, such as time-average wall shear stress, oscillatory shear index, relative residence time and so on. In this paper, multiple biomechanical parameters were introduced from the perspectives of shear stress and its temporal and spatial variation, turbulence, platelet transport and activation, stress concentration in vascular wall, etc. The development trend of biomechanical parameters related to carotid artery risk assessment was also analyzed, so as to provide the theoretical basis for more comprehensive and rapid carotid risk assessment
