Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of carotid endarterectomy in treatment of patients with suba-cute cerebral infarction. Methods Sixty patients diagnosed and treated in our hospital were analyzed and randomly di-vided into two groups. The control group was given conservative treatment and the experimental group was given carotid endarterectomy treatment. The treatment effects of the two groups were compared. Results The treatment effects were ideal for 93.3% of the experimental group, which was higher than that of the control group (80.0%) (P<0.05); After the treatment, two groups were not significantly different in indicators such as PT, TT and FIB (P>0.05); After treatment, APTT of the experimental group was (27.9±2.4) seconds, which was lower than that of the control group(30.4±6.8) sec-onds(P<0.05); The incidence of surgical adverse reactions of the experimental group was 20.0%, which was lower than that of the control group (53.3%)(P<0.05). Conclusion The incidence of subacute cerebral infarction is relatively high. The clinical application of carotid endarterectomy shows good treatment effects, can improve clinical treatment effects and reduce the incidence of complications, thereby worthy of promotion and application.

OBJECTIVE:
To investigate the functional pathways enriched and differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of patients with gram-positive and gram-negative sepsis.
METHODS:
Dataset GSE9960 obtained from NCBI GEO database containing PBMC samples from 16 non-infectious systematic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) patients, 17 gram-positive septic patients and 18 gram-negative septic patients were included in the study. Functional pathway annotations were conducted by gene set enrichment analysis and weighted gene co-expression network analysis. DEGs were filtered and master DEGs were then validated in PBMCs of gram-positive septic, gram-negative septic and non-infectious SIRS patients.
RESULTS:
The enriched gene sets in gram-positive sepsis and gram-negative sepsis were significantly different. The results indicated the opposite co-expression networks in SIRS and gram-negative sepsis, and the entirely different co-expression networks in gram-positive and gram-negative sepsis. Furthermore, we validated that
CONCLUSIONS
The results indicate that there are differences in the mechanism and pathogenesis of gram-positive and gram-negative sepsis, which may provide potential markers for sepsis diagnosis and empirical antimicrobial therapy.
