Objective To study the clinical value of bedside ultrasound in predicting the fluid responsiveness in pa?tients with septic shock in intensive care unit (ICU). Methods Forty-two mechanically ventilated patients with septic shock who admitted to ICU of the Affiliated Hospital of North China University of Science and Technology from January 2015 to April 2015 were included in this study. All patients were treated with volume expansion (VE) text. Hemodynamics in?dexes were obtained by ultrasound before and after each test, including stroke volume (SV), aortic peak blood flow velocity variation rate of breathing (△VpeakAO), inferior vena cava expansion index (△IVC) and brachial artery maximum speed vari?ation rate (△VpeakBA). Clinical data and central venous pressure (CVP) were recorded. Based on the responsiveness of SV, patients were divided into responsive group (R) and non-responsive group (NR), respectively. The differences of the above in?dexes were compared between two groups. The correlation of△IVC,△VpeakAO,△VpeakBA and△SV was determined. The role of the hemodynamic index for predicting volume responsiveness was evaluated by receiver operating characteristic ROC curves. Results A total of 47 VE tests were performed in 42 patients, 25 in R group and 22 in NR group. Before VE test, the hemodynamics indicators of△IVC,△VpeakAO and△VpeakBA were significantly higher in R group compared with those of NR group (P<0.05). The values of△IVC,△VpeakAO and△VpeakBA were positively correlated with△SV in two groups. The areas under the ROC curve of the hemodynamics indicators were 0.825, 0.853 and 0.866 for △IVC, △VpeakAO and△VpeakBA, and they all showed high sensitivity and specificity. Conclusion The hemodynamic index measured by bedside ultrasound can predict the volume responsiveness in mechanically ventilated patients with septic shock fluid therapy, and which can be used to fluid therapy with a high degree of specific and sensitivity in clinical practice.

Objective: To investigate the ultrasound evaluation on lfuid responsiveness in patients with septic shock. Methods: There 42 septic shock patients treated by mechanical ventilation in our hospital from 2015-01 to 2015-04 were studied. All patients received volume expansion (VE) text, ultrasound examination was conducted to measure hemodynamic parameters of inferior vena cava variation rate of breathing (ΔIVC), aortic peak blood lfow velocity variation rate of breathing (ΔVpeakAO), brachial artery maximum speed variation rate (ΔVpeakBA) and stroke volume (ΔSV) at before and after text. Based on the response to VE text, the patients were divided into 2 groups as Responsive group and Non-responsive group, the above indexes and their correlations to ΔSV were analyzed. The clinical values of those parameters for predicting volume responsiveness were evaluated by ROC curves. Results: A total of 47 VE tests were conducted in 42 patients including 25 cases in Responsive group and 22 cases in Non-responsive group. Before VE test, the parameters of ΔIVC, ΔVpeakAO and ΔVpeakBA were higher in Responsive group than Non-responsive group; ΔIVC, ΔVpeakAO and ΔVpeakBA were obviously related to ΔSV (r=0.631, 0.668 and 0.619). The area of ΔIVC, ΔVpeakAO and ΔVpeakBA under ROC curves were 0.817, 0.853 and 0.866 respectively, they were all with the high sensitivity and speciifcity. Conclusion: Ultrasound monitored hemodynamic parameters may predict the volume responsiveness in septic shock patients with mechanical ventilation, it could be used for guiding liquid treatment in relevant patients.

Curcumin-ethyl-cellulose (EC) sustained-release composite particles were prepared by using supercritical CO2 anti-solvent technology. With drug loading and yield of inclusion complex as evaluation indexes, on the basis of single factor tests, orthogonal experimental design was used to optimize the preparation process of curcumin-EC sustained-release composite particles. The experiments such as drug loading, yield, particle size distribution, electron microscope analysis (SEM) , infrared spectrum (IR), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and in vitro dissolution were used to analyze the optimal process combination. The orthogonal experimental optimization process conditions were set as follows: crystallization temperature 45 degrees C, crystallization pressure 10 MPa, curcumin concentration 8 g x L(-1), solvent flow rate 0.9 mL x min(-1), and CO2 velocity 4 L x min(-1). Under the optimal conditions, the average drug loading and yield of curcumin-EC sustained-release composite particles were 33.01% and 83.97%, and the average particle size of the particles was 20.632 μm. IR and DSC analysis showed that curcumin might complex with EC. The experiments of in vitro dissolution showed that curcumin-EC composite particles had good sustained-release effect. Curcumin-EC sustained-release composite particles can be prepared by supercritical CO2 anti-solvent technology.

Objective:Primary gastric choriocarcinoma (PGC) is a rare tumor. This study aimed to analyze cases reported in Chi-nese and two cases in our hospital. This study was also conducted to investigate the clinical characteristics and treatment of PGC. Meth-ods:The Chinese Medical Current Contents and China Biology Medicine database was retrieved with the following terms:primary gas-tric choriocarcinoma, stomach choriocarcinoma, and ectopic choriocarcinoma. The clinical data in published literature were retrospec-tively analyzed. Two cases from our hospital were also retrospectively analyzed. Results:A total of 16 patients with PGC (14 case stud-ies and 2 cases from our hospital) were included in this study. The average age of the patients was 57.69 years (ranging from 42 years to 79 years). Among the 16 patients, 4 were females and 12 were males. The main clinical manifestation was abdominal discomfort (12/16). Laboratory and imaging tests were non-specific, but HCG-βin all of the patients increased (11/11). Organ or lymph node metasta-sis was found in 13 patients, including 6 cases in which two or more organs showed metastasis. These organs were primarily the liver, the stomach lymph nodes, the lungs, the brain, and the abdominal cavity. Pathological examination results showed that 12 of the 16 cas-es displayed ulcers with necrosis and hemorrhage. The four remaining cases manifested lesions. Lesions may occur in the stomach less-er curvature (5 cases), stomach sinus (6 cases), cardiac (2 cases), and gastric body (3 cases). The histological components of PGC co-ex-isted with other factors, such as adenocarcinoma (7 cases), adenocarcinoma and squamous (2 cases), adenocarcinoma and a signet ring cell (1 case), or pure choriocarcinoma (6 cases). Surgery combined with chemotherapy was the main treatment. A total of 14 patients un-derwent surgical operations. Among these patients seven underwent chemotherapy after surgery and one underwent chemotherapy. Among the 10 patients who were followed up, 8 died within six months after diagnosis. Conclusion:PGC is a rare stomach cancer with poor prognosis and primarily affects older men. No characteristic clinical manifestations were observed, but HCG-βas a specific serum tumor biomarker increased in all of the affected patients. Histological components co-existed with other stomach cancers. Surgical exci-sion combined with chemotherapy was the preferred treatment in early stages, and systemic chemotherapy was the recommended treat-ment in advanced stages.
