1.Diagnostic Value of Combined Examination of Copeptin and High Sensitivity Cardiac Troponin T in Patients at Early Stage of Acute Myocardial Infarction
Chinese Circulation Journal 2014;(10):772-775
Objective: To investigate the diagnostic value of combined examination of copeptin and high sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) in patients at the early stage of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) . Methods: A total of 272 patients were enrolled in this study, all of them suffered from chest pain and admitted within 4 hours. The patients were divided into 4 groups according to coronary artery angiography (CAG) results. Control group, the patients with normal CAG,n=64, UAP group (unstable angina pectoris),n=50, STEMI group,n=82, NSTEMI group,n=76. All patients received in-hospital observation, plasma levels of copeptin and hs-cTnT were examined at admission and at 6 hours after the chest pain respectively. Results: Within 4 hours of chest pain, combined examination of copeptin and hs-cTnT had the higher sensitivity for diagnosing AMI than a single detection of hs-cTnT with the cut-off point of hs-cTnT ≤ 14ng/L and Copeptin < 14pmol/L. In NSTEMI group, the AUC (area under curve) for combined examination was 0.97 (95% CI 0.88-0.99), AUC for single hs-cTnT detection was 0.75 (95% CI 0.62-0.87),P<0.05. In STEMI group, the AUC for combined examination was 0.97 (95% CI 0.88-0.99), AUC for single hs-cTnT detection was 0.74 (95% CI 0.60-0.88),P< 0.05. The AUC for combined examination of copeptin and hs-cTnT in diagnosing early AMI was 0.912 (95% CI 0.812-0.961) which was higher than single detection of hs-cTnT, AUC 0.851 (95% CI 0.713-0.936), Z=2.553,P<0.05. Conclusion: Combined examination of copeptin and hs-cTnT had the higher sensitivity and accuracy for diagnosing the patients at the early stage of AMI, it may help the risk stratiifcation of chest pain which is valuable in clinical practice.

The new cataloguing rules, RDA, have been implemented in NLM and more RDA bibliographic data can thus be accessed in domestic medical libraries when the Western documents are catalogued by offloading their bibliographic data.The differences in RDA and AACR2 were compared, the common modified fields and descrip-tive contents were described when the RDA bibliographic data were changed into AACR2 bibliographic data in order to provide certain reference for cataloguing of Western documents using the RDA bibliographic data.

Objective To investigate the detection results of GHB with different instruments, and to provide reliable basis for improving the accuracy of GHB detection. Methods ADVIA 1650 biochemical analyzer and HA-8160 glycosylated hemoglobin analyzer were used. The accurate detection of glycosylated hemoglobin in 100 healthy people was carried out, and the related data were recorded and analyzed statistically. Attention should be paid to this group according to glycosylated hemoglobin detection value, that is, within 6.5% for A group, 6.5%-10.0% for B group, more than 10% for C group, and compare the above-mentioned different grouping of corresponding instrument glycosylated hemoglobin detection value. Results The analysis showed that there was no significant difference between the two groups of C instrument glycosylated hemoglobin levels, but the level of glycosylated hemoglobin detected by A in group HA-8160 and group B was significantly higher than that of ADVIA 1650(P<0.05). Conclusion Different instruments have some differences in the detection value of glycosylated hemoglobin. Clinicians should judge the disease comprehensively according to the actual situation and other indicators.

Objective To analyze the factors related to the disqualification of urine routine and stool routine, and to formulate corresponding solutions. Methods In April 2014 to April 2017 our collected 600 cases of hospitalized patients, urine and stool samples for routine detection, made clear that cause unqualified samples related factors, and develop effective solution strategy. Results 600 cases in the selected routine urine, excrement and urine routine test specimens, the unqualified samples of total 110 cases, fraction defective is 18.33%, 490 qualified samples, percent of pass is 81.67%, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).There are a number of factors that cause the sample to fail, such as the contamination of the sample, the length of storage, the operation and the preparation. Conclusion In the process of actual diagnosis of disease, clinical result in urine, feces routine test specimen unqualified often appear, the reason is to a great extent, and the related nursing staff in urine and stool samples of patients before the lack of relevant guidance and so on, and nursing staff after the complete collection of specimens does not usually in accordance with the relevant standard of serious check, to avoid the sample inspection is unqualified, hospitals need to develop scientific inspection process, nurses in practice need to strict adherence to the process, and through intensive training, promote nursing staff awareness test, can to improve the qualification rate of sample test provide strong guarantee.

Objective: To investigate the clinicopathologic characteristics and etiological factors of cervical cancer in young Uygur women in Xinjiang.Methods" We reviewed 350 cases of young Uygur females diagnosed with cervical cancer in our hospital during 1998-2007.The patients were divided into two groups according to their admission time (1998~2002 group and 2003~2007 group).Results: The incidence of cervical carcinoma among yong Uygur women was 12.9% in the 1998-2002 group and 10.3% in the 2003-2007 group.The first symptom was vaginal contactive bleeding.In both groups, most patients were peasants, but the percentages of highbrow was higher in the 2003-2007 group.Patients in the 2003~2007 group were of older age at first marriage and had lower rate of abortion.There was no significant difference in histological type between the two groups.However, patients in the 2003-2007 group presented with much earlier stage of cervical cancer and 56.9% of them were of stage Ⅱ disease, compared with 18.1% in the 1998-2002 group (P<0.05).Squamous cell carcinoma was the dominant histological type.Conclusion: The incidence of cervical carcinoma in young Uygur women tends to decrease due to screening and advocation of late marriage, less reproduction in remote rural areas of Xinjiang.

ObjectiveAim at the problems in the treatments of the children malignant bone tumor of distal femur,we put forward the concept of the dual mobility hemi-knee prosthesis and try to perform the motion parameters analysis and the pilot clinical trials.MethodsBase on the CT data from samples of knee joint in adult,we adopted the Mimics/Geomagic/Pro-E software and computer numerical control milling machine technology to design and produce the dual mobility hemi-knee artificial prosthesis,and then motion parameters was analyzed in vitro test,and at last pilot clinical trial was performed.ResultsIn vitro experiment showed that the displacement of the internal femoral condyle flexion facet center was(2.59±0.43) mm in normal knee group,(2.22±0.52) mm in dual mobility hemi-knee prosthesis group,and (1.18±0.43) mm in total knee arthroplasty group; the displacement of the external femoral condyle flexion facet center was (11.95±6.62) mm in normal group,(11.25±6.19) mm in dual mobility hemi-knee prosthesis group,and (1.26±0.42) mm in total knee arthroplasty group; the maximum relative rotation angle was 13.17°±7.58° in normal knee group,11.69°±6.49° in dual mobility hemi-knee prosthesis group,and 5.40°±1.29° in total knee arthroplasty group.After that,we accomplished the pilot clinical trials successfully for a patient with malignant bone tumor in distal femur.The patient recovered well and the treatment outcome was satisfactory.ConclusionThe motion parameters analysis showed that the motion mode of the dual mobility hemi-knee prosthesis is similar with that of the normal knee.The dual mobility hemi-knee prosthesis provides a whole new concept and method for the treatment of malignant bone tumor of distal femur in children,and the device and concept of ligament reattachment provide a solution to the reconstruction of knee ligament.
