In this study, we prepared various matrices of hydrogel patches and studied their cross-linking mechanism by observing their rheological properties, which could provide theoretical basis and deep technical support for further industrial development of hydrogel patch. Rheology method was used to do the amplitude scanning and single-frequency scanning for various hydrogel matrix, under the condition of oscillation mode of the rheometer. Then the linear viscoelastic region, composite modulus value, as well as changes in slope with time of the composite modulus and phase angle of various hydrogel matrix were analyzed in detail. The results showed that the stability of matrix was mainly determined by hydrogel frame; only in acidic environment, the cross-linking reaction between cross-linker and hydrogel frame can occur; elasticity of matrix can be decreased by organic acid and the effect level was related to the ratio of the number of carboxyl and hydroxyl (-COO(-)/-OH) in adjusters: if the ratio was not equal, the higher -COO(-)/-OH in adjusters would be the less elasticity of matrix decreased; the cross-linking speed of matrix was determined by adjuster, the cross-linking speed of matrix contain different adjusters was ranged in following order: matrix containing tartaric acid > matrix containing lactic acid > matrix containing malic acid > matrix containing citric acid; the cross-linking speed of matrix was not uniform in the whole cross-linking process.

Objective To study the value of copeptin and APACHE Ⅱ used for assessing acute paraquat poisoning (APP). Methods One hundred and twenty six APP patients were divided into survival group (n = 58) and death group (n = 68), with clinical death as the endpoint of observation. 3 mL blood was obtained from each subject at 2 h , 24 h and 7 d after admission for detecting the levels of copeptin , and APACHE Ⅱ scores were recorded at the same time. Results There was significant difference in dosages of paraquat taken in the death group and the survival group , but the differences were significant in the rescue time , the first time for hemoperfusion and the times for hemoperfusion. 2 h after admission , the death group and survival group had significant difference in elevated copeptin but no significant difference in scores by APACHE Ⅱ. 24 h after admission copeptin decreased to normal level in the survival group but maintained at a higher level in the death group, while the scores by APACHE Ⅱ had insignificant difference between two groups. 7 d after admission, copeptin kept at a higher level and the scores by APACHE Ⅱwere significantly increased in the death group , with significant differences compared to the survival group. The oral doses of pesticides the patients took were positively correlated with copeptin level and scores by APACHE Ⅱ. Conclusion Repeated detection of copeptin and APACHE Ⅱ score are of clinical importance for the assessment of prognosis of APP patients and reasonable distribution of medical resources.

Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of soluble growth stimulating expression gene 2 protein (sST2) combined with neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio (NLR) in the prediction of nosocomial cardiovascular adverse events in patients with acute carbon monoxide poisoning (ACOP) myocardial injury.Methods:Patients with ACOP myocardial injury from January 2017 to December 2019 in Emergency Ward and EICU of Harrson International Peace Hospital, Hebei Medical University were enrolled. NLR was calculated by routine blood examination on admission, and sST2 (T 0sST2, T 3dsST2) was detected by ELISA on admission and at 3 days after admission. According to the occurrence of cardiovascular adverse events, the patients were divided into the event group and the non-event group. Logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of in-hospital cardiovascular adverse events. ROC curve was used to analyze the value of sST2, NLR, sST2 and NLR combined in predicting the occurrence of in-hospital cardiovascular adverse events in patients with ACOP myocardial injury. Results:Totally 255 patients with ACOP myocardial injury were included in the final analysis. NLR was (13.38±4.33) in the event group and (9.57±4.22) in the non-event group, T 3dsST2 was (61.59±22.67) ng/mL in the event group and (40.52±13.14) ng/mL in the non-event group, with statistically significant differences (all P<0.01). T 0sST2 was (265.34±89.95) ng/mL in the event group and (242.43±93.09) ng/mL in the non-event group, with no statistically significant difference ( P=0.333). Logistic regression analysis showed that NLR ( OR=1.270, 95% CI: 1.125-1.434, P<0.01) and T 3dsST2 ( OR=1.082, 95% CI: 1.052-1.114, P<0.01) were independent risk factors for nosocomial cardiovascular adverse events in patients with ACOP myocardial injury. The optimal cutoff value of T 3dsST2 was 44.5 ng/mL, and of NLR was 12.08. The sensitivity and specificity of dual T 3dsST2 and NLR in predicting nosocomial cardiovascular adverse events was 79.3% and 82.7%, respectively (AUC 0.857, Youden index 0.620). Conclusions:T 3dsST2 and NLR are independent risk factors for the nosocomial cardiovascular adverse events in patients with ACOP myocardial injury. The predictive cutoff values are 44.5 ng/mL for T 3dsST2 and 12.08 for NLR. Combination of T 3dsST2 and NLR has a practical predictive value for nosocomial cardiovascular adverse events in patients with ACOP myocardial injury.

Objective To investigate the relationship between soluble CD14-st (Presepsin)and assessment,prognosis in patients with acute paraquat poisoning (APP).Methods A total of 82 patients with APP treated in Emergency Department of Harrison International Peace Hospital Affiliated to Hebei Medical University from January 2013 to January 2016 were divied into three groups:mild poisoning group (n =20),moderate poisoning group (n =36)and severe poisoning group (n =26).According to the outcomes,patients were divided into survivor group (n =28)and non-survivor group (n =54).Another 50 healthy subjects were selected as control group.In control group,samples of 3 mL venous blood from 50 healthy subjects were collected for laboratory examination.Samoles of 10 mL venous blood from all patients were collected before and 72 hours,7 days after treatment to detect presepsin,C reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor α(TNF-α),interleukin-6 (IL-6)and interleukin-10 (IL-10).Before and 72 hours, 7 days after treatment,the change of Acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE)Ⅱscore and the outcomes in 28 days were observed.The variance analysis of repeated measures was used for comparison among multiple groups,and the t test was used to compare changes of detected biomarkers between two groups,and the outcomes in 28 days between two groups were compared with chi square test. Pearson correlation test was used to analyze the correlation between Presepsin in patients with APP and the survival rate.Results APACHE Ⅱ scores and the serum level of prespsin,CRP,TNF-α,IL-6 at admission and 72 hours,7 days after treatment in three poisoning groups were significantly increased compared with control group,IL-10 were decreased compared with control group (P <0.05 ),and there were significant differences in those biomarkers between moderate group and mild group,and between severe group and mild group,moderate group (P <0.05).At admission,72 h,7 d after admission,APACHEⅡscore and the serum levels of presepsin,CRP,TNF-α,IL-6 in non-survivor group were higher than those in survivor group,and IL-10 in non-survivor was lower than that in survivor group (P <0.05).The mortality rates of these 3 groups were 25.00%,69.44% and 92.31%,demonstrating significant differences among three groups (P <0.05).The AUCs were 0.862 and 0.731 for presepsin and APACHEⅡscore respectively at admission.The predictive capability of presepsin for 28-day mortality was superior over that of APACHEⅡscore (P <0.05).The level of serum presepsin in patients with APP was negatively correlated with the survival rate (r =-0.285,P =0.009).Conclusions The detection of prespsin has important clinical value in the severity assessment and prognosis in patients with APP.It is an important guidance for early therapeutic strategy.
