1.The application of CT cerebral perfusion imaging in patients with hyperacute stroke
Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2011;18(6):745-746
Objective To explore the application of multislice computed tomographyic ( MSCT) perfusion imaging in the assessment of acute cerebral infarction. Methods 50 patients who initially diagnosed as acute cerebral infarction in 6 hours after their outbreak of infarction were selected. The Siemens semsation 4 MSCT was used to scan the patients and form time versus concentration curve analysis, including the comparision of region cerebral blood flow (CBF) between the necrosis region and the normal region, region cerebral blood volume (CBV), mean transit time ( MTT). Each case had to be examined by computed tomography at least once a week after infarction. Results 50 patients were found having a lower CBF and CBV in their necrosis region compared with the other side(P<0.05) ,and had a longer MTT in their necrosis region compared with the other side( P <0.05) ,45 patients were observed a shrink of the size of the infarction region compared with the perfusion image in first 6 hours when they were reexamined by CT a week later(P <0.05) ,which proved the exist of ischemic penumbra area around the infarction center. Conclusion The multislice computed tomographyic perfusion imaging technology could define the infarction region and size at the early stage of acute cerebral infarction. It also provided clues to indicate the exist of a vascular area around the necrosis centre. It could diagnose acute cerebral infarction at hyperacute period and provide image proof for the thrombolysis in early period and treatment in individual manner.
2.The relationships of antithrombinⅢand D-dimer with pediatric critical illness score in children with sepsis
Journal of Clinical Pediatrics 2014;(3):224-227
Objective To explore the relationships between antithrombinⅢ(AT-Ⅲ) and D-dimer (DD) level with pediat-ric critical illness score (PCIS) in children with sepsis, and to evaluate the values in assessing the severity of illness. Methods Sixty-one children with sepsis were included in this study. Within 24 hours after admission, blood samples were tested for the ac-tivity of AT-Ⅲ and DD level. The PCIS was calculated. According to PCIS, the patients were divided into extremely critical group (<70), critical group (71-80) and non-critical group (80-100). According to the prognosis, the patients were divided into survival and death groups. The differences of the activity of AT-Ⅲand DD were compared and the relationship with PCIS were analyzed. Results The activity of AT-Ⅲ was lower and DD level was higher in critical group than in non-critical group (P<0.01) and the changes in extremely critical group were more evident than those in critical group. The activity of AT-Ⅲand PCIS were positively correlated (r=0.548, P<0.01).The DD level and PCIS was negatively correlated (r=-0.657, P<0.01). Compared with survival group, the level of DD was significantly higher in death group (P<0.01), and PCIS and the activity of AT-Ⅲwere significantly lower in death group (P<0.05). Conclusions The patients with sepsis have dysfunctions of coagulation. The activity of AT-Ⅲ, DD level are correlated with illness severity, and can be useful for assessing the severity of sepsis.
