OBJECTIVE: To explore the prognostic value of C-reactive protein (CRP)/albumin (Alb) ratio combined with platelet count (PLT) and Glasgow coma score (GCS) in patients with heat stroke (HS). METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of HS patients admitted to the department of intensive care unit (ICU) of Nanchong Central Hospital from May 1, 2020 to October 31, 2023. This included general information, admission GCS, laboratory indicators and 28-day prognosis. The differences in the above indicators were compared between two groups of patients with different prognoses. Statistically significant indicators from univariate analysis were included in multivariate Logistic regression analysis to screen for factors influencing 28-day mortality in HS patients. The predictive value of various influencing factors on the 28 days prognosis of HS patients were analyzed by receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve). RESULTS: A total of 73 HS patients were included, of whom 41 survived for 28-day and 32 died. There were no statistically significant differences in gender and age between the two groups of HS patients with different prognoses. The white blood cell count (WBC), neutrophil count (NEU), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), CRP, and CRP/Alb ratio in the death group were significantly higher than those of the survival group, and the admission GCS score, platelet count (PLT), total bilirubin (TBil) and Alb were significantly lower than the survival group [WBC (×10⁹/L): 14.80 (11.44, 17.15) vs. 11.96 (9.47, 14.82), NEU (×10⁹/L): 13.05 (8.56, 15.67) vs. 9.50 (6.68, 12.09), AST (U/L): 108.00 (52.70, 291.50) vs. 64.50 (38.25, 110.50), ALT (U/L): 62.00 (19.50, 159.00) vs. 34.50 (20.75, 70.75), CRP (mg/L): 22.49 (3.42, 58.93) vs. 3.68 (1.01, 11.46), CRP/Alb ratio: 0.53 (0.08, 1.77) vs. 0.08 (0.02, 0.44), GCS score: 7.0 (5.0, 8.0) vs. 8.5 (7.0, 11.0), PLT (×10⁹/L): 107.00 (73.50, 126.00) vs. 131.50 (107.50, 176.25), TBil (mmol/L): 15.60 (10.00, 25.30) vs. 21.40 (14.80, 30.05), Alb (g/L): 32.65 (32.53, 49.30) vs. 38.70 (36.20, 40.40), all P < 0.05]. Binary Logistic regression analysis showed that the GCS score [odds ratio (OR) = 0.686, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) was 0.491-0.959, P = 0.028], PLT (OR = 0.973, 95%CI was 0.954-0.992, P = 0.005), NEU (OR = 1.312, 95%CI was 1.072-1.606, P = 0.009) and CRP/Alb ratio (OR = 7.652, 95%CI was 1.632-35.881, P = 0.010) were independent influencing factors for 28-day mortality in HS patients. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of GCS score, PLT, and CRP/Alb ratio for single prediction of 28-day prognosis in HS patients was 0.705, 0.752, and 0.729, and the combination of all three predicted the highest AUC of 28-day prognosis in HS patients (0.917), with a sensitivity and specificity of 86.2% and 81.2%, respectively. CONCLUSION CRP/Alb ratio, PLT, and GCS score are independent influencing factors affecting the prognosis of HS patients, and all of them have a certain predictive value for the prognosis of HS patients, in which the combination of the three has a higher predictive value for the prognosis of HS patients.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the neuroprotective effect of 6-shogaol (6-SH) in global cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury (CIRI) following cardiac arrest (CA) and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in rats. METHODS: Computer-aided molecular docking was used to determine whether 6-SH could spontaneously bind to death-associated protein kinase 1 (DAPK1). SPF-grade male SD rats were randomly divided into a sham group (n = 5), a CPR group (n = 7), and a CPR+6-SH group (n = 7). The CPR group and CPR+6-SH group were further divided into 12-, 24-, and 48-hour subgroups based on observation time points. A rat model of global CIRI after CA-CPR was established by asphyxiation. In the sham group, only tracheal and vascular intubation was performed without asphyxia and CPR induction. The CPR group was intraperitoneally injected with 1 mL of normal saline immediately after successful modeling. The CPR+6-SH group received an intraperitoneal injection of 20 mg/kg 6-SH (1 mL) immediately after successful modeling, followed by administration every 12 hours until the endpoint. Neurological Deficit Score (NDS) was recorded at each time point after modeling. After completion of observation at each time point, rats were anesthetized and sacrificed, and brain tissue specimens were collected. Histopathological changes of neurons were observed under light microscopy after hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. Ultrastructural changes of hippocampal neurons and autophagy were observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was used to detect mRNA expression levels of DAPK1, vacuolar protein sorting 34 (VPS34), Beclin1, and microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3) in brain tissues. Western blotting was used to detect protein expression levels of DAPK1, phosphorylated DAPK1 at serine 308 (p-DAPK1 ser308), VPS34, Beclin1, and LC3. Immunofluorescence was used to observe Beclin1 and LC3 expression in brain tissues under a fluorescence microscope. RESULTS: Molecular docking results indicated that 6-SH could spontaneously bind to DAPK1. Compared with the sham group, the NDS scores of the CPR group rats were significantly increased at all modeling time points; under light microscopy, disordered cell arrangement, widened intercellular spaces, and edema were observed in brain tissues, with pyknotic and necrotic nuclei in some areas; under TEM, mitochondria were markedly swollen with intact membranes, dissolved matrix, reduced or disappeared cristae, vacuolization, and increased autophagosomes. Compared with the CPR group, the NDS scores of the CPR+6-SH group rats were significantly decreased at all modeling time points; under light microscopy, local neuronal edema and widened perinuclear space were observed; under TEM, mitochondria were mostly mildly swollen with intact membranes, fewer autophagosomes, and alleviated injury. RT-qPCR results showed that compared with the sham group, mRNA expression levels of DAPK1, VPS34, Beclin1, and LC3 in brain tissues were significantly upregulated in all CPR subgroups, with the most pronounced changes at 24 hours. Compared with the CPR group, the CPR+6-SH group showed significantly lower mRNA expression of the above indicators at each time point [24 hours post-modeling (relative expression): DAPK1 mRNA: 3.41±0.68 vs. 4.48±0.62; VPS34 mRNA: 3.63±0.49 vs. 4.66±1.18; Beclin1 mRNA: 3.08±0.49 vs. 4.04±0.22; LC3 mRNA: 2.60±0.36 vs. 3.67±0.62; all P < 0.05]. Western blotting results showed that compared with the sham group, the protein expression levels of DAPK1, VPS34, Beclin1, and LC3 in all CPR subgroups were significantly increased, while the expression of p-DAPK1 ser308 was significantly decreased, with the most pronounced changes observed in the CPR 24-hour subgroup. Compared with the CPR group, the CPR+6-SH subgroups exhibited significantly reduced protein expression of DAPK1, VPS34, Beclin1, and LC3 [24-hour post-modeling: DAPK1/β-actin: 1.88±0.22 vs. 2.47±0.22; VPS34/β-actin: 2.55±0.06 vs. 3.46±0.05; Beclin1/β-actin: 2.12±0.03 vs. 2.87±0.03; LC3/β-actin: 2.03±0.24 vs. 3.17±0.23; all P < 0.05]. Conversely, the expression of p-DAPK1 ser308 was significantly upregulated in the CPR+6-SH group compared to the CPR group [24-hour post-modeling: p-DAPK1 ser308/β-actin: 0.40±0.02 vs. 0.20±0.07, P < 0.05]. Under the fluorescence microscope, fluorescence intensities of Beclin1 and LC3 in the CPR 24-hour group were significantly higher than those in the sham 24-hour group; compared with the CPR 24-hour group, the CPR+6-SH 24-hour group showed significantly reduced fluorescence intensities of Beclin1 and LC3. CONCLUSION 6-SH inhibited the expression of DAPK1, alleviated excessive autophagy after global CIRI following CA-CPR in rats, and exerted neuroprotective effects. The mechanism may be related to phosphorylation at the DAPK1 ser308 site.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the relationship between serum chloride levels and prognosis in patients with hepatic coma in the intensive care unit (ICU). METHODS: We analyzed 545 patients with hepatic coma in the ICU from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database. Associations between serum chloride levels and 28-day and 1-year mortality rates were assessed using restricted cubic splines (RCSs), Kaplan-Meier (KM) curves, and Cox regression. Subgroup analyses, external validation, and mechanistic studies were also performed. RESULTS: A total of 545 patients were included in the study. RCS analysis revealed a U-shaped association between serum chloride levels and mortality in patients with hepatic coma. The KM curves indicated lower survival rates among patients with low chloride levels (< 103 mmol/L). Low chloride levels were independently linked to increased 28-day and 1-year all-cause mortality rates. In the multivariate models, the hazard ratio ( HR) for 28-day mortality in the low-chloride group was 1.424 (95% confidence interval [ CI]: 1.041-1.949), while the adjusted hazard ratio for 1-year mortality was 1.313 (95% CI: 1.026-1.679). Subgroup analyses and external validation supported these findings. Cytological experiments suggested that low chloride levels may activate the phosphorylation of the NF-κB signaling pathway, promote the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and reduce neuronal cell viability. CONCLUSION Low serum chloride levels are independently associated with increased mortality in patients with hepatic coma.

BACKGROUND: The primary limitation to kidney transplantation is organ shortage. Recent progress in gene editing and immunosuppressive regimens has made xenotransplantation with porcine organs a possibility. However, evidence in pig-to-human xenotransplantation remains scarce, and antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) is a major obstacle to clinical applications of xenotransplantation. METHODS: We conducted a kidney xenotransplantation in a brain-dead human recipient using a porcine kidney with five gene edits (5GE) on March 25, 2024 at Xijing Hospital, China. Clinical-grade immunosuppressive regimens were employed, and the observation period lasted 22 days. We collected and analyzed the xenograft function, ultrasound findings, sequential protocol biopsies, and immune surveillance of the recipient during the observation. RESULTS: The combination of 5GE in the porcine kidney and clinical-grade immunosuppressive regimens prevented hyperacute rejection. The xenograft kidney underwent delayed graft function in the first week, but urine output increased later and the single xenograft kidney maintained electrolyte and pH homeostasis from postoperative day (POD) 12 to 19. We observed AMR at 24 h post-transplantation, due to the presence of pre-existing anti-porcine antibodies and cytotoxicity before transplantation; this AMR persisted throughout the observation period. Plasma exchange and intravenous immunoglobulin treatment mitigated the AMR. We observed activation of latent porcine cytomegalovirus toward the end of the study, which might have contributed to coagulation disorder in the recipient. CONCLUSIONS 5GE and clinical-grade immunosuppressive regimens were sufficient to prevent hyperacute rejection during pig-to-human kidney xenotransplantation. Pre-existing anti-porcine antibodies predisposed the xenograft to AMR. Plasma exchange and intravenous immunoglobulin were safe and effective in the treatment of AMR after kidney xenotransplantation.

PURPOSE: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a significant public health issue that impacts individuals all over the world and is one of the main causes of mortality and morbidity. Decompressive craniectomy is the usual course of treatment. Basal cisternostomy has been shown to be highly effective as an alternative procedure to decompressive craniectomy. METHODS: We conducted a retrospective cohort of patients who received surgery for severe TBI between January 2019 and March 2023. Inclusion criterias were patients between the ages of 18 and 70 years who met the diagnostic criteria for severe TBI at first presentation and who underwent surgical intervention. The exclusion criteria were patients who have severe multiple injuries at the time of admission; preoperative intracranial pressure > 60 mmHg; cognitive impairment before the onset of the disease; hematologic disorders; or impaired functioning of the heart, liver, kidneys, or other visceral organs. Depending on the surgical approach, the patients were categorized into decompressive craniectomy group as well as basal cisternostomy group. General data and postoperative indicators, including Glasgow coma scale, intracranial pressure, etc., were recorded for both groups of patients. Among them, the Glasgow outcome scale extended assessment at 6 months served as the primary outcome. After that, the data were statistically analyzed using SPSS software. RESULTS: The trial enrolled 41 patients (32 men and 9 women) who met the inclusion criteria. Among them, 25 patients received decompressive decompressive craniectomy, and 16 patients received basal cisternostomy. Three days postoperative intracranial pressure levels were 10.07 ± 2.94 mmHg and 17.15 ± 14.65 mmHg (p = 0.013), respectively. The 6 months following discharge Glasgow outcome scale extended of patients was 4.73 ± 2.28 and 3.14 ± 2.15 (p = 0.027), respectively. CONCLUSION Our study reveals that basal cisternostomy in patients with surgically treated severe TBI has demonstrated significant efficacy in reducing intracranial pressure as well as patient prognosis follow-up and avoids removal of the bone flap. The efficacy of cisternostomy has to be studied in larger, multi-clinical center randomized trials.

PURPOSE: To analyze risk factors for severe trauma and establish a nomogram for early risk prediction, to improve the early identification of severe trauma. METHODS: This study was conducted on the patients treated in 81 trauma treatment institutions in Gansu province from 2020 to 2022. Patients were grouped by year, with 5364 patients from 2020 to 2021 as the training set and 1094 newly admitted patients in 2020 as the external validation set. Based on the injury severity score (ISS), patients in the training set were classified into 2 subgroups of the severe trauma group (n = 478, ISS scores ≥25) and the non-severe trauma group (n = 4886, ISS scores <25). Univariate and binary logistic regression analyses were employed to identify independent risk factors for severe trauma. Subsequently, a predictive model was developed using the R software environment. Furthermore, the model was subjected to internal and external validation via the Hosmer-Lemeshow test and receiver operating characteristic curve analysis. RESULTS: In total, 6458 trauma patients were included in this study. Initially, this study identified several independent risk factors for severe trauma, including multiple traumatic injuries (polytrauma), external hemorrhage, elevated shock index, elevated respiratory rate, decreased peripheral oxygen saturation, and decreased Glasgow coma scale score (all p < 0.05). For internal validation, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.914, with the sensitivity and specificity of 88.4% and 87.6%, respectively; while for external validation, the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.936, with the sensitivity and specificity of 84.6% and 93.7%, respectively. In addition, a good model fitting was observed through the Hosmer-Lemeshow test and calibration curve analysis (p > 0.05). CONCLUSION This study establishes a nomogram for early risk prediction of severe trauma, which is suitable for primary healthcare institutions in underdeveloped western China. It facilitates early triage and quantitative assessment of trauma severity by clinicians prior to clinical interventions.

INTRODUCTION

Brain death occurs in patients who suffer from severe brain injuries, leading to coma, loss of brainstem reflexes, and apnea. Research indicates that misdiagnosis of brain death often arises from insufficient adherence to established guidelines. This study aims to evaluate and identify any significant variations in physicians' knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding brain death and organ donation.

This cross-sectional study was conducted among physicians using random sampling. The questionnaire was validated prior to distribution. After obtaining informed consent, participants completed the questionnaire. Data analysis involved the use of frequency and distribution tables, as well as analysis of variance and multivariate analysis of variance.

A total of 113 participants were involved in the study. While years of experience and position influenced knowledge, field of specialization did not show a significant effect. Overall, attitudes remained consistent across different levels of experience and positions. The data revealed a notable lack of training and institutional resources. Although there were some differences in practices, they were not statistically significant.

Significant differences in knowledge were observed based on years of practice. However, no significant differences were found in attitudes and practices, despite variations in responses. Regular seminars and workshops are crucial for staying updated with the latest guidelines. Additionally, it is important to ensure that local guidelines are readily accessible to the broader medical community.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) on paroxysmal sympathetic hyperexcitation (PSH) after brain injury. METHODS: A multicenter retrospective study was conducted. Fifty-six patients with PSH who received HBO treatment from four hospitals in Henan Province from January 2021 to September 2023 were selected as the HBO group, and 36 patients with PSH who did not receive HBO treatment from Zhengzhou People's Hospital from May 2018 to December 2020 were selected as the control group. PSH assessment measure (PSH-AM) score [clinical feature scale (CFS) score+diagnostic likelihood tool (DLT) score] and Glasgow coma scale (GCS) were compared before and after HBO treatment, and between HBO group and control group to evaluate the effect of HBO treatment on prognosis of PSH patients. RESULTS: There were no statistically significant differences in age, gender, PSH etiology, GCS score, time from onset to occurrence of PSH, CFS score, CFS+DLT score and frequency of PSH episodes between the two groups, indicating comparability. The duration of HBO treatment ranged from 3 to 11 days for 56 patients receiving HBO treatment, and the duration of HBO treatment ranged from 3 to 5 courses. Compared with before treatment, after HBO treatment, PSH symptoms in HBO patients were significantly relieved (body temperature increase: 14.29% vs. 64.29%, heart rate increase: 25.00% vs. 98.21%, shortness of breath: 14.29% vs. 76.79%, blood pressure increase: 8.93% vs. 85.71%, sweating: 10.71% vs. 85.71%, muscle tone increased: 19.64% vs. 75.00%, all P < 0.05), CFS+DLT score decreased significantly (16.90±4.81 vs. 22.12±3.12, P < 0.01), GCS score improved (12.31±5.34 vs. 5.95±2.18, P < 0.01). After 30 days of hospitalization, compared with the control group, PSH symptoms in the HBO group were improved (body temperature increase: 14.29% vs. 19.44%, heart rate increase: 19.64% vs. 25.00%, shortness of breath: 10.71% vs. 27.78%, blood pressure increase: 7.14% vs. 22.22%, sweating: 8.93% vs. 25.00%, muscle tone increased: 19.64% vs. 38.89%, all P < 0.05 except body temperature increase), CFS+DLT score decreased (16.90±3.81 vs. 19.98±4.89, P < 0.05), GCS score increased (14.12±4.12 vs. 12.31±4.14, P < 0.01), the length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay was shortened (days: 18.01±5.67 vs. 24.93±8.33, P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS HBO treatment can significantly relieve the symptoms of patients with PSH after brain injury and provide a new idea for the treatment of PSH patients.

PURPOSE: Despite advances in modern medicine, traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are still a major medical problem. Early diagnosis of TBI is crucial for clinical decision-making and prognosis. This study aims to compare the predictive value of Helsinki, Rotterdam, and Stockholm CT scores in predicting the 6-month outcomes in blunt TBI patients. METHODS: This cohort study was conducted on blunt TBI patients of 15 years or older. All of them were admitted to the surgical emergency department of Shahid Beheshti Hospital in Kashan, Iran from 2020 to 2021 and had abnormal trauma-related findings on brain CT images. The patients' demographic data such as age, gender, history of comorbid conditions, mechanism of trauma, Glasgow coma scale, CT images, length of hospital stay, and surgical procedures were recorded. The Helsinki, Rotterdam, and Stockholm CT scores were simultaneously determined according to the existing guidelines. The included patients' 6-month outcome was determined using the Glasgow outcome scale extended. M Data were analyzed by SPSS software version 16.0. Sensitivity, specificity, negative/positive predictive value and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve were calculated for each test. The Kappa agreement coefficient and Kuder Richardson-20 were used to compare the scoring systems. RESULTS: Altogether 171 TBI patients met the inclusion and exclusion criteria, with the mean age of (44.9 ± 20.2) years. Most patients were male (80.7%), had traffic related injuries (83.1%) and mild TBIs (64.3%). Patients with lower Glasgow coma scale had higher Helsinki, Rotterdam, and Stockholm CT scores and lower Glasgow outcome scale extended scores. Among all the scoring systems, the Helsinki and Stockholm scores showed the highest agreement in predicting patients' outcomes (kappa = 0.657, p < 0.001). The Rotterdam scoring system had the highest sensitivity (90.1%) in predicting death of TBI patients, whereas the Helsinki scoring system had the highest sensitivity (89.8%) in predicting the 6-month outcome in TBI patients. CONCLUSION The Rotterdam scoring system was superior in predicting death in TBI patients, whereas the Helsinki scoring system was more sensitive in predicting the 6-month outcome.

Objective: To analyze the correlation of bispectral index (BIS) with the prognosis of patients with acute severe carbon monoxide poisoning (ASCMP) and its predictive value of adverse outcomes. Methods: In March 2021, 106 ASCMP patients who were treated in Harrison International Peace Hospital Affiliated to Hebei Medical University from January 2019 to December 2020 were taken as research objects. All patients underwent 24-hour BIS monitoring after admission, and were divided into good prognosis group (n=75) and poor prognosis group (n=31) according to the prognosis of the patients' cranial nerve function after 60 d. The general conditions, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ) score, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score at admission and 24-hour BIS mean were compared between the two groups. Pearson correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlations between the 24-hour BIS mean and GCS score at admission, APACHEⅡ score and coma time. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to analyze the predictive value of 24-hour BIS mean, GCS score at admission, APACHEⅡ score and coma time on adverse outcome of ASCMP patients. Results: The coma time and APACHEⅡ score of the patients in the poor prognosis group were significantly higher than those in the good prognosis group, the GCS score at admission and 24-hour BIS mean were significantly lower than those in the good prognosis group (P<0.05) . Pearson correlation analysis showed that the 24-hour BIS mean was positively correlated with the GCS score at admission, and negatively correlated with the APACHEⅡ score, coma time (r=0.675, -0.700, -0.565, P<0.001) . The 24-hour BIS mean had the highest predictive value for adverse outcome of ASCMP patients, with a cut-off value of 74, the area under the curve was 0.883 (95%CI: 0.814-0.951, P<0.001) , and the sensitivity and specificity were 73.3% and 87.1%, respectively. Conclusion: The 24-hour BIS mean has a good correlation with the acute brain nerve injury, the severity of the disease and coma time of patients with ASCMP. And it has a high predictive value for the adverse outcome in patients with ASCMP.
