Objective To explore the risk factors of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) in severe trauma patients, put forward a new warning scoring system of MODS, and to provide a more accurate scoring method for doctors to judge the clinical condition and prognosis of patients. Methods Clinical data of 342 patients with severe trauma admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) of the Affiliated Hospital of Zunyi Medical College and Daping Hospital of the Third Military Medical University from January 1st, 2015 to December 31st, 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into MODS groups (n = 251) and non-MODS group (n = 91) according to clinical outcomes. The clinical data of patients, including gender, age, heart rate (HR) and blood pressure within 24 hours after admission to the hospital, indicators of blood routine and blood biochemistry, severity of disease, severity of trauma, whether received the emergency intubation or surgery within 24 hours or not, whether developed sepsis or acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) during hospitalization, were recorded, and univariate analysis was conducted. The indicators with statistical significance found by univariate analysis were enrolled in multivariate Logistic regression analysis, and the risk factors for MODS in patients with severe trauma were screened and assigned, and the final total score was MODS warning score. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted to evaluate MODS warning score for predicting the occurrence of MODS in patients with severe trauma. Results Compared with non-MODS group, HR, Na+, serum creatinine (SCr), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), injury severity score (ISS), new injury severity score (NISS), acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ) score and sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score in MODS group were significantly increased, pH value, red blood cell (RBC), platelet (PLT), albumin (Alb) and Glasgow coma score (GCS) were remarkably decreased, and multiple injury, the patients with shock at admission, blood transfusion, central venous catheter, emergency intubation and infection were also increased, and more patients suffered from sepsis and ARDS. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the number of injured places equal or more than 2, shock at admission, APACHEⅡ score ≥ 15, SOFA score ≥ 4 and APTT > 40 s were risk factors for MODS in patients with severe trauma, with total MODS warning score of 7.5. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under ROC curve (AUC) of MODS warning score for predicting MODS in patients with severe trauma was 0.822, which was significantly higher than that of APACHEⅡ score (AUC = 0.698, P < 0.001), APTT (AUC = 0.693, P < 0.001) and SOFA score (AUC = 0.770, P = 0.025). When the cut-off value of MODS warning score was 2.5, the sensitivity was 61.35%, the specificity was 90.11%, and Youden index was 0.515. Conclusions MODS warning score is composed of five factors, including the number of injured places, shock at admission, APACHEⅡ score, SOFA score and APTT, which could be regarded as early warning score system for predicting MODS in patients with severe trauma. MODS warning score can be more comprehensive and timely to assess the possibility of MODS and prognosis of patients with severe trauma, and the prediction result is better than the single use of APTT, APACHEⅡ or SOFA score.

Objective:To explore the clinical value of autoantibodies in patients with liver disease.Methods:We retrospectively analyzed the data of 1 495 outpatients or inpatients with liver disease in Beijing Ditan Hospital of Capital Medical University from August 2020 to April 2021. Indirect immunofluorescence and Western blot were used to detect antinuclear antibody (ANA) and antinuclear antibodies (ANAs).Results:ANA and ANAs were positive in patients with liver diseases of various etiologies. Among 1 495 patients with liver disease, 494 cases were ANA positive, the positive rate was 33.04%; 573 cases were positive for ANAs, the positive rate was 38.33%. The positive rate of ANA in the immune liver disease group (63.37%) was higher than that in the viral, alcoholic, fatty liver, confounding factors and other liver disease groups, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). The ANA positive rate between the viral, alcoholic, fatty liver, and confounding factor groups was statistically significant ( χ2=19.823, P<0.01), the positive rate of ANAs in the immune liver disease group (80.23%) was higher than that in other liver disease groups, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). The antibody titer of immune liver disease group was mainly 1∶1000, and other liver disease etiology groups was mainly 1∶100. The two most common fluorescent karyotypes in liver disease groups of different etiologies are cytoplasmic and nuclear granular types. The most common specific antibody in the immune liver disease group was anti-mitochondrial antibody type 2 (anti-AMA-M2) antibody, the most common anti-Ro-52 antibody in viral, drug-induced, complex etiology, and other etiological groups, and the most common anti-SSA antibody in alcoholic liver disease. Anti-SSA antibody (17.44%), anti-SSB antibody (9.30%), anti-CENP-B antibody (22.09%), anti-Ro-52 antibody (41.28%), anti-AMA-M2 antibody (51.74%) were positive in immune liver disease group, The rate was higher than that of other liver disease etiology groups, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.01). When the ANA fluorescence karyotype is nuclear granule type, the positive rate of anti-CENP-B antibody, anti-Ro-52 antibody, and anti-AMA-M2 antibody in the immune liver disease group was higher than that in the viral liver disease group ( P<0.01), The positive rate of anti-Ro-52 antibody was higher than that of drug-induced liver disease group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The ANA titer of autoimmune liver disease was mainly (1∶1 000). ANAs were mainly positive for anti-SSA antibody, anti-SSB antibody, anti-CENP-B antibody, anti-Ro-52 antibody, and anti-AMA-M2 antibody, especially anti-AMA-M2 antibody. When combined with ANA fluorescent karyotype and ANAs for analysis, if the fluorescent karyotype is nuclear particle type, the positive anti-Ro-52 antibody in ANAs is more valuable in distinguishing immunity from viral and drug-induced liver diseases.
