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 analyze the clinical and imaging features of pulmonary metastasis of giant cell tumor of bone for clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods Five patients with histologically proven pulmonary metastasis from giant cell tumor of bone were reviewed,the imaging features and the progression of the pulmonary metastasis were evaluated.Results The first operation of primary tumor was curettages and then local recurrence was seen in all 5 cases.The interval to metastasis ranged from 5 to 26 months.Pulmonary metastasis was diagnosed by chest radiographs in 4 cases and CT in all 5 cases.The imaging findings included solitary solid nodule (n =1),multiple solid nodules and mass (n =5),multiple groundglass nodules (n =1) and complex form (n =2).The dynamic follow-up CT findings showed spontaneous regress nodules (n =1),metastasis occurring again 19 months after surgery of solitary nodule (n =1),some solid nodules unchangable for a long time in 3 patients with multiple nodules.Conclusions The dynamic follow-up CT findings of pulmonary metastasis of giant cell tumor of bone are specific.The regular follow-up could play an essential role in early detection and prognosis of pulmonary metastasis within 2 years after primary tumor diagnosed.

Objective To prepare a novel drug delivery system camptothecin loaded nanogel (CPT-PPO gel),and inves-tigate its contents,physical and chemical properties and in vitro transdermal permeability.Methods The solvent evaporation method was utilized to prepare core-shell nano-drug delivery systems (CPT-PLGA-PAMAM,CPT-PP),in which the Poly lac-tic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA ) was used to load camptothecin as the nucleus and the polyamidoamine (PAMAM ) G3.0 was wrapped in the surface of PLGA as the shell.Then the oleic acid (OA) was connected to CPT-PP to obtain the surface modified drug delivery system (CPT-PLGA-PAMAM OA,CPT-PPO).HPLC was used to determine the content of camptothecin in nanoparticles,transmission electron microscopy was applied to identify the nanoparticles morphology,and laser analyzer was used to determine the particle size.The hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) was added as the base for the preparation of the nanogel (CPT-PPO gel) at last.The Franz-diffusion cell was used to determine the permeation rate of nanogel in vitro. Results The resulting CPT-PPO gel was stable at 4℃,the average particle size was (246.7 ± 5.4) nm and the encapsulation efficiency was up to (78.7 ± 6.9)%.Comparing to the normal gel,(CPT gel),the cumulative penetration amount and the re-tention amount in the skin of the nanogels (CPT-PPO gel,CPT-PP gel) were significant higher (P＜0.01),the retention and cumulative penetration amount of CPT-PPO gel was significant higher than that of CPT-PP gel (P＜0.05).Conclusion After modified by OA,CPT-PPO gel can increase the cumulated amount and absorption in skin and can be used as a carrier of CPT in the new formulation for topical treatment of psoriasis.

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.

Objective To observe the impact of ginkgo biloba extract(Ginaton) on nerve functioninpa-tients withdelayed encephalopathy after acute carbon monoxide poisoning(DEACMP). Methods 96 patients with DEACMP treated in our hospital from April 2011 to February 2017 were randomly divided into a control group and a study group. The control group received hyperbaric oxygen ,control of intracranial pressure ,and improvement of brain cell metabolism;while the study group receivedintravenous injection of Ginaton 70 mg(adding into 250 mL of 0.9% sodium chloride) once daily fora 2-week therapeutic course. MRIand EEGwere used forexamination in DEACMP patients within 24 h after onset and 14 days after treatment. Changes in MRI and EEG examination , clinical symptoms ,mini-mental state examination (MMSE) score ,Barthel index (BI),and Montreal cognitive assessment(MoCA)were assessed before and after treatment between the two groups. Results The therapy wasef-fective in 39 patients in the study group,with a total effectiveness rate of 81.25%;and in 29 patients in the control group,with a total effectiveness rate of 60.42%. There was significant difference between the two groups (χ2 =5.042,P = 0.025). Inadmission,there were no differences between the two groups in the abnormal signals of MRI,abnormal rate of EEG,and the scores on MMSE,BI,andMoCA(P>0.05). After a 14-day treatment,the abnormal signals of MRI,abnormal rate of EEG,andthe scores on MMSE,BI,and MoCA score were improved better in the study than in the control group(P < 0.05). The MMSE score was negatively correlated with disease severity in DEACMP patients(r=-0.832,P=0.000). Conclusions Early treatment with Ginaton can effectively improvethe cerebral lesions on MR,the abnormal rate of EEG,andthe scores on MMSE,BI,and MoCA. It has certain clinical efficacy.

Objective:To analyze the clinical and pathological features of asymptomatic primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) .Methods:A retrospective analysis was carried out in terms of the clinical characteristics and pathological data in 30 patients with asymptomatic PHPT and 86 patients with typical PHPT hospitalized in the Department of Endocrinology and General Surgery of Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from Jan. 2013 to Dec. 2018. There were 7 males (23.3%) and 23 females (76.7%) , with a male to female ratio of 1:3.3. The average age was 56.9±13.3 years. In typical PHPT group, there were 32 males (37.2%) and 54 females (62.8%) , with the average age of 46.4±17.0 years. Bone metabolism indicators included bone density and bone biochemical markers (parathyroid hormone, 25-hydroxyvitamin D and alkaline phosphatase) . The t test was used to compare normally distributed variables, the Mann-Whitney rank sum test was used to compare skewed distributed variables, and the χ 2 test was used to compare enumeration data. Results:The median serum parathyroid hormone and alkaline phosphatase were 144.2 (108.1, 207.0) pg/ml and 80.0 (53.7, 105.5) IU/L respectively, the average serum concentration of calcium was 2.80±0.20 mmol/L, which were significantly lower than those of the classic group ( P<0.05) . The median serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D was 12.14 (7.87, 14.38) ng/ml, which was higher than that of the classic group ( P<0.001) . Ten patients (33.3%) developed osteoporosis, and the incidence was lower than that of the classic group ( P< 0.001) . The median tumor weight was 0.80 (0.25, 1.98) g, significantly smaller than that in the classical group ( P=0.003) . There were 26 cases (86.7%, including 2 atypical parathyroid adenomas) of parathyroid adenomas and 4 cases (13.3%) of hyperplasia. Conclusions:The asymptomatic PHPT has the same sex ratio as the classic type, mainly female, but the average age is significantly higher than that in the classic type. Although asymptomatic PHPT in this study are all benign lesions, abnormal bone biochemical indicators, especially vitamin D deficiency, are common, which also lead to osteoporosis.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of sequential hemoperfusion combined with rhu-barb as the main treatment for patients with acute paraquat poisoning(acute,paraquat,poisoning,APP). Meth-ods 16 moderate APP patients in our hospital were randomly divided into group A(hemoperfusion group,31 cas-es),group B(hemoperfusion combined with rhubarb as the main prescription group,40 cases)and group C(con-tinuous hemoperfusion combined with rhubarb as the main prescription group,45 cases),respectively.Levels of C-reactive protein(CRP),alanine aminotransferase(ALT),creatine kinase(CK-MB),creatinine(Cr),tumor ne-crosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6)and interleukin-10(IL-10)were determined before treatment and at 5 d,7 d post-treatment. At 8 h,12 h and 24 h post-treatment,serum paraquat level was determined. Results After treatment,the total effective rate of group C(68.89%)was significantly higher than that of group A (35.48%),group B(52.5%),with significant differences among groups(χ2= 8.335,P=0.015). Levels of ALT,CK-MB,Cr,CRP,TNF-α,IL-6 and IL-10 were significantly increased at 5 d post-treatment in group A, but were significantly decreased at 7d post-treatment in group C,with significant differences among groups(P<0.05).The serum paraquat content in group B and C was lower than that in group A at 8 h post-treatment.The se-rum paraquat content was the lowest in group C at 12h post-treatment(P < 0.05). However,the serum paraquat content decreased significantly in each group at 24 h post-treatment,with no significant differences among three groups. Conclusions The early continuous hemoperfusion combined with rhubarb-based sequential treatment of APP can effectively reduce the fatality rate and improve prognosis of APP patients.
