prognosis of patients with acute upper gastrointestinal bleeding (AUGIB). Methods A total of 130 patients with AUGIB in our hospital were enrolled in this study from August 2014 to August 2016 . Three kinds of scoring systems including Rockall, Blatchford and AIMS65 were used to evaluate the risk classification of the patients. Patients were followed up for 2 months. The incidence rates of re-bleeding and death within 2 months after admission were observed. Data of prognosis in patients with AUGIB were compared between the three scoring systems in the prognosis of patients with AUGIB, including the risk classification and the prediction accuracy of re-bleeding and death. Results There were no significant differences in the re-bleeding rate and fatality rate between the groups divided by Rockall and Blatchford scoring systems ( P>0.05). According to the grouping results of AIMS65 scoring system, the re-bleeding rate of low-risk group was lower than that in high risk group (1.45%vs. 13.11%, P=0.01), but there was no significant difference in fatality rate between the two groups (P>0.05). The values of area under the curve (AUC) of predicting re-bleeding rates by using Rockall, Blatchford and AIMS65 scoring systems were 0.6258, 0.6910, and 0.7241, and the values of AUC of predicting fatality rates were 0.7031, 0.7969, and 0.7031 by using receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis. There were no significant differences between them (P>0.05). The values of AUC of predicting re-bleeding rates by using the risk grading calculation by Rockall, Blatchford and AIMS65 scoring systems were 0.6189, 0.6139 and 0.7254 (P>0.05). But the values of AUC of predicting fatality rates were 0.6211, 0.6641 and 0.7695 (P<0.01). Conclusion The operation method of AIMS65 scoring system is simple and convenient, which is applicable to a wide range of patients with AUGIB. In the prediction of re-bleeding and mortality, AIMS65 scoring system has high accuracy and stability, which is worthy of promoting in clinical application.

Objective To access the expression and clinical significance of CD19+CD5+B cells and interleukin (IL)-10 in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Methods Forty-six SLE patients and ten healthy controls were recruited in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Shanxi Medical University. CD19+CD5+B cells subsets were detected with flow cytometry. IL-10 level in serum were detected with enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The correlation between the expression of CD19+CD5+B cells and serum level of IL-10 with ESR, systemic lupus erythematosus disease activity index (SLEDAI) score and complement was analyzed. Pair-wise comparison of means of groups was conducted with one-way ANOVA. Comparison between the two groups was conducted by LSD-t test. Correlations between variables were carried out using Spearman's rank correlation test. Results The percentage of CD19+CD5+B cells in peripheral blood of SLE patients [(5.7±2.1)%] was significantly lower than those in healthy control group [(19.1±2.9)%](t=2.431, P=0.005), and it had a negative correlation with SLEDAI score (r=-0.292, P=0.049). The IL-10 serum level of SLE patients [(18.8±13.5) pg/ml] was significantly higher than the healthy control group [(8.3±2.9) pg/ml] (t=3.021, P=0.003), and it had a positive correlation with SLEDAI score (r=0.322, P=0.029). Conclusion CD19+CD5+B cells and IL-10 may participate in the occurrence and development of SLE. The changes of CD19+CD5+B cells and IL-10 in the peripheral blood might contribute to the pathogenesis and correlate with the disease activity of SLE.
