Objective To investigate the joint value of early peak temperature and 48 h-△sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score in predicting the prognosis for patients with sepsis in emergency department.Methods Two hundred and thirty-one patients with sepsis admitted from January 2013 to January 2015 in Emergency Intensive Care Unit of the First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University were enrolled.Clinical features,early peak temperature,SOFA scores,the length of stay in EICU and the mortality in 28 days were studied.The patients were divided into two groups according to the 48 h-△SOFA.Each group were divided into three subgroups according to the early peak temperature.For example,hypothermia subgroup had temperature below 36 ℃,normothermia subgroup had temperature between 36 ℃ and 38 ℃,and hyperthermia subgroup had temperature above 38 ℃.The relationship between peak temperature plus 48 h-△SOFA and the length of stay in EICU as well as mortality were analyzed.Results Of 231 patients,in 48 h-△SOFA＞0 group (n =142) 27 (19.0％) patients died,and in 48 h-△SOFA≤0 group (n =89) 33 (37.1％) patients died (P ＜ 0.05).Hypothermia subgroup had a higher odds ratio value in predicting nonsurvival in 48 h-△SOFA≤0 group (OR =4.51,95％CI:1.33-2.17,P =0.01).Hyperthermia subgroup had a longer stay in EICU than hypothermia subgroup and normothermia subgroup (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The combination of the early peak temperature and 48h-△SOFA score is an effective indicator to evaluate the prognosis and to stratify patients with sepsis in emergency department.More attention should be paid to the patients with an early peak temperature ＜ 36 ℃ and 48 h-△SOFA ≤0 because of higher mortality.The condition of patients should be reassessed and try to make a more rational treatment for the patients with an early peak temperature ＞38 ℃ and 48 h-△SOFA ＞0 because of its longer stay in EICU.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of combining early urine paraquat early clearance rate (UPCR) with severity index of paraquat poisoning (SIPP) in predicting the prognosis for paraquat poisoning patients.Methods In this retrospective research,a total of 425 cases diagnosed with acute paraquat poisoning from March 2014 to March 2016 in Emergency Intensive Care Unit,First Affiliated Hospital of China Medical University were enrolled.The general data of patients,the results of rapid qualitative test of paraquat in blood and urine,the concentration of paraquat in blood / urine,the poisoning time,the concentration of blood lactic acid and the APACHE Ⅱ score were collected.The early UPCR and SIPP were measured at different time intervals,and the ratio of 6-SIPP and 12 h-UPCR were calculated.These patients were divided into death groups and survival groups according to the 28-day mortality.The relationship between these factors and the mortality were analyzed.Results Of all the 425 patients,268 cases (63.1％) died,157 cases (36.9％) survived;the blood concentration of paraquat,the lactate concentration,SIPP values and the APACHE Ⅱ scores were significant difference between the two groups (P ＜ 0.05).The mortality of 2-6 hour paraquat rapid qualitative test result positive patients was higher (96.4％) than that of the negative patients (3.6％) (P ＜ 0.05);the mortality of 12-24 hour paraquat rapid qualitative test result negative patients was lower (11.5％) than that of the positive patients (88.5％) (P＜0.05).The 2-6 hour SIPP value was 19.8 ±6.7 in death group,which was higher than that in survival group (4.9±3.1) (P＜0.05);the 2-6 hour UPCR value was (41.7±9.3) indeath group,which was lower than that in survival group (86.3 ± 15.8) (P ＜ 0.05).There was no significant difference in the 2-6 hour UPCR value and 12-24 hour UPCR value between two groups (P ＞0.05).The 6 h-SIPP/12 h-UPCR value was (41.94 ±5.9) in death group,which was higher than that in survival group (5.27 ± 3.6) (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The combined use of early UPCR and SIPP values is an effective indicator of the prognosis of patients with acute paraquat poisoning and is helpful for the early stratification.We should pay more attention to the patients whose rapid qualitative blood test is positive because of their high mortality risk;for the patients whose 12 h urinequalitative test was negative,the hemoperfusion therapy might be stopped because the toxin was completely excluded,and the medical resources can be saved reasonably.The UPCR might indicate the excretion of toxins,and SIPP might indicate the severity of poising.

Objective To compare the efficacy of video-assisted thoracoscopy plus minithoracotomy(VAMT) and limited axillary thoracotomy(LAT) for the treatment of lung cancer.Methods 85 consecutive lung cancer patients were treated by either VAMT or LAT.The operative time,blood loss during operation,postoperative chest drainage time,and hospital stay time and postoperative complication were compared between the two groups.Results There was no death in two groups.The operative time and blood loss during operation were significant less in VAMT than inLAT(t =6.514,2.413,all P ＜0.05).But postoperative chest drainage time,and hospital stay time and postoperative complication were no significant difference between the two groups (t =0.490,0.338,all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion VAMT is a safe and less traumatic procedure in the treatment of lung cancer,which is worthy of promotion and application.

The activity of eNOS was singificantly depressed by a high concentration of glucose in a concentration-and time-dependent manners after incubation of HUVECs with different concentrations of glucose and with high glucose plus insulin for different times.The physiological concentration of insulin can partially reverse the inhibitions of the activity and expression of eNOS induced by high concentration of glucose.

During the last decade a lot of new learning about asthma was arisen along with the development of modern immunology and molecular biology,and asthma had been one hotspot in the studies of molecular biological and administer medical field.One of the new viewpoints was that airway neurogenic inflammation took important role in asthma development.For years scholars had suspected that airborne pollutants had an synergistic effect on the attack of asthma and could cause asthma attack,but they did not know the molecular mechanism.In 1991 Denish scholar Nielsen GD advanced a new hypothesis that airway irritation was mediated by capsaicin receptor.The pathological process included a molecular chain of message transfer as air pollutants_capsaicin receptor_Ca2+_substance P_neurokinin receptor.Airway neurogenic inflammation was the result of activation of the receptors.In 1997 American scholar Caterina MJ and his colleagues successfully obtained the cloned capsaicin receptor in expressing cells,this will make Nielsen GD's hypothesis living.

Objective: To explore the stress effects of traffic accident on changing the NO level and SOD activity, as well as the relationship between personality and prognostic change. Methods: Serum level of NO and activity of SOD were measured in 152 patients with traffic accidents and in 60 control subjects. All subjects were assessed with the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (EPQ). Results: NO and SOD were significantly higher in patients as compared to controls ( P

Objective To explore the repair effect of methylcobalamin treatment of nerve after spinal cord injury.Methods 108 cases of patients with acute spinal cord injury were selected treated in our hospital from 2010 April to 2014 April , including 60 cases of male, female 48 cases, were randomly divided into Mecobalamin group(n=56) and control group(n=52), mecobalamin group was treat with a cobalt amine, control group was given conventional treatment (dexamethasone intravenous drip note).According to American spinal cord injury score (ASIA) to set sensory function, motor function and spinal cord function score criteria, observed and record ed the sensory function, motor function, recovery of neurological function and complications the two groups of patients were treated for 6 weeks and followed up for 6 months.Results Spinal cord injury patients after 6 weeks and 6 months follow-up, the improvement of sensory and motor function of mecobalamin group were significantly better than the control group ( P <0.01 );Mecobalamin group patients after first to 3 weeks of recovery of neurological function was higher than those of the control group (P<0.05);the 2 groups were found urinary tract infections, lung infections, vomiting, reaction of ulcer complications, but the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05).Conclusion In patients with acute spinal cord injury treated by mecobalamin treatment can improve the nerve function damage condition, improve the prognosis and quality of life.
