BACKGROUND: Primary progressive aphasia is a degenerative disease of nervous system clinically characterized by the progressive decrease of speech ability and the relatively reserved memory. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the characteristics of speech dysfunction and the clinical features of primary progressive aphasia we by reported onel patient with primary progressive aphasia. DESIGN: A case analysis. SETTING: Department of Neurology, Beijing Tiantan Hospital affiliated to Capital University of Medical Sciences. PARTICIPANT: One male patient of 56 years old with primary progressive aphasia was selected from the Department of Neurology, Beijing Tiantan Hospital in March 2004, he had got education in senior middle school. The patient had been unable to tell the names of daily living objects at the beginning of 2001. Not only his ability of listening comprehension had gradually declined, but his characters had gradually changed except that his memory had not been affected obviously since 2003. Although he was able in self-care now, he could not normally work. METHODS: ① The spoken fluent types of the patient were evaluated with the standards for the fluency of spoken language in Aphasia battery of Chinese. Western battery aphasia was used to assess the type of aphasia of the patient. Boston diagnostic aphasia examination severity grading standard was applied to grade the severity of aphasia. ② The cognitive psychological tests of visual character-figure matching, denomination for figures and oral reading were used to judge whether the patient had verb-noun dissociation. ③The memory of the patient was assessed with clinical memory scale. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ① spoken fluency, the type and grade of aphasia; ② condition of verb-noun dissociation for the patient; ③ memory of the patient. RESULTS: ① Examination of aphasia: The patient presented the spontaneous talking that named the fluent type, there were wrong meanings in his talks so that he was diagnosed as sensory aphasia. The severity of aphasia was separated into grade 3 levels. ② Cognitive psychological test: The correct rates of verbs and nouns in the test of denomination for figures were 15% and 53% respectively, and there was obvious difference (t=0.231, P < 0.05). ③ Clinical memory scale: The memory quotient was 111,and the clinical memory grade was higher than normal. CONCLUSION: The most outstanding clinical characteristics of patients with primary progressive aphasia is speech dysfunction, and there is verb specific injury.

Objective To explore clinical characteristics and prognostic risk factors in patients with community ac-quired pneumonia(CAP)complicated with acute kidney injury(AKI).Methods In total, 456 CAP patients were included based on the diagnostic guide.According to whether the patients were accompanied with AKI,the patients were divided in-to two groups(non-AKI group and AKI group). AKI group were further divided into risk group, injury group and failure group by RIFLE criteria using admission creatinine.Severity in CAP patients,clinical indexes and prognostic evaluation in-dexes were compared between different groups. Multiple factors were analyzed using Logistic regression model,survival analysis were examined by Kaplan-Meier, which analyzed the risk factors of poor prognosis in CAP patients and the role of RIFLE criteria in prognostic evaluation. Results Thirty percent(135)of the total 456 CAP patients were accompanied with AKI. Patients in AKI group were further divided into risked group (45.2%, 61 patients), injury group (17%, 23 pa-tients) and failure group (37.8%, 51 patients) according to the RIFLE diagnostic criteria using basal creatinine level. Among the 300 patients with PSI gradeⅠtoⅢ,23.3%(70)of patients developed AKI while among 156 patients who are with PSI gradeⅣor over, 65 patients (41.7%) developed AKI(P<0.01).The 30-day mortality of CAP patients accompanied with AKI were increased compared to Non-AKI group(Non-AKI:6.2%;Risk:14.8%;Injury:21.7%;Failure:45.1%).With de-teriorating in RIFLE criteria,the portion of patients who required mechanical ventilation, inotropic support(MV/IS)and re-nal replacement therapy(RRT)increased too. Logistic analysis revealed that AKI,age of 75 years or older and extra-renal or-gan failure were the risk factors of poor prognosis in patients with CAP. The rate of survivors was decreased in the CAP pa-tients accompanied with AKI compared with those who did not.Conclusion There is certain incidence of AKI to compli-cate CAP patients who will have a poor prognosis.RIFLE diagnostic criteria is a valuable tool to evaluate prognosis of CAP patients complicated with AKI.
