Objective To explore the influence of continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) therapy on cardiac index (CD, global end-diastolic volume index (GEDI) and extravascular lung water index (ELWI) monitored by Pulse-indicated continuous cardiac output (PiCCO). Methods The 12 critically ill patients with acute renal failure were selected consecutively from department of intensive care unit (ICU) in Beijing Hospital. The patients who received CVVH therapy were monitored by PiCCO plus device. The hemodynamic measurements were performed during the process and interruption of CVVH. Pared t-test was used to analyze the values of CI, GEDI and ELWI. Results A total of 48 groups of data from 12 patients were analyzed. There were no significant differences in CI [(4.75±0.93) L ? min(-1) · m(-2)vs. (4.69±0.89) L · min(-1) · m(-2)], GEDI [(780.60±109.30) ml/m2 vs. (784.75± 106.20) ml/m2] and ELWI CC11.61±3.45) ml/kg vs. (11.54±3.56) ml/kg] between the interruption and process of CVVH, as obtained by the pared t-test (all P>0.05). Conclusions The CVVH therapy has no effect on the accuracy and reliability of PiCCO measurement of CI, GEDI and ELWI.

ObjectiveTo verify the reliability of the mouse model of cerebral cortical microinfarct induced by two-photon microscopy and to explore its pathological changes.MethodsSeventeen male C57BL/6J mice were randomly divided into a microinfarct group (n=11) or a sham operation group (n=6).A thinned cranial window of 3 mm diameter was performed over the cerebral cortex with a high-speed micro-drill until the small blood vessels were clearly observed under a dissecting microscope.Then, a permanent single cortical penetrating arteriole occlusion was induced with a gradually enhanced ultrashort laser irradiation through the thinned cranial window with two-photon microscopy.At 7 days after modeling, the cerebral microinfarct volume was measured with HE staining, and the neuron loss, activation of glial cells and deposition of 3-nitrotyrosine were assessed using immunohistochemistry.ResultsThe target vessels of cerebral cortex in 8 (72.7%) mice were occluded and the microinfarcts formed in the microinfarct group, and the average microinfarct volume was 317.23±20.29 μm3.There were remarkable neuron loss and microglia infiltration in the infarcted core, a large number of reactive astrocytes surrounding the infarcted lesion, and massive deposition of 3-nitrotyrosine in the peri-infarct area.No infarcts were observed in the sham operation group.The deposition of 3-nitrotyrosine in the sham operation group was significantly less than that in the microinfarct group (8.00±1.48 vs.98.38±9.10;t=23.962, P<0.001).Conclusions The mouse model of cerebral cortical microinfarct induced by two-photon microscopy is reliable, and its histopathologic changes are consistent with the pathologic features of cerebral microinfarct.

Objective To prospectively investigate the effects of high-flow nasal oxygen on hypoxemic patients after surgery.Methods A total of 108 postoperation hypoxemic patients (150 mmHg ≤ PaO2/FiO2 ＜300 mmHg, PaCO2 ≤50 mmHg) in Beijing Hospital Surgical Intensive Critical Unit was in cluded and assigned randomly to two groups from June 2016 to April 2017.Fifty four patients (study group) who received high-flow nasal oxygen therapy were compared with 54 patients (control group) who received noninvasive ventilation therapy.The data of reintubation and mortality in 28 days after extubation were collected and analyzed.Results No significant differences were found for reintubation rate (11.1％ vs 13.0％,P =0.767) and mortality (5.6％ vs 7.4％, P =0.696) in 28 days after extubation between two groups.In subgroup analysis, no significant differences were found for different hypoxima level (250 mmHg ≤ PaO2/FiO2 ＜ 300 mmHg,200 mmHg ≤ PaO2/FiO2 ＜ 250 mmHg and 150 mmHg≤ PaO2/FiO2 ＜ 200 mmHg) between two groups, for reintubation rate (0 vs 3.7％,P =0.296;20％ vs 14.3％,P =0.684;30％ vs 30.8％,P =0.968, respectively) and mortality (0 vs 3.7％,P =0.296;6.7％ vs 7.1％,P =0.960;20％ vs 15.4％,P =0.772, respectively).Face skin breakdown were significantly more common in control group (1 1.1％ vs 0,P =0.012).Conclusions High-flow nasal oxygen therapy was not inferior to noninvasive ventilation for mild and moderate hypoxemic patients after surgery.High-flow nasal oxygen therapy is safe and effective for these patients.

Objective To investigate effects of Levosimendan on hemodynamics in heart failure patients with low cardiac output. Methods A total of 27 heart failure patients with low cardiac output were recruited in the surgical intensive care unit (SICU)of Beijing Hospital from July 2009 to May 2016. All patients were treated with continuous intravenous infusion of Levosimendan 12.5 mg within 24 h at a rate of 0.1~0.2 μg· kg -1·min-1. Hemodynamic variables were monitored by pulse-indicated continuous cardiac output(PICCO)at baseline ,24 h ,4 d and 7 d after infusion. Results There were no significant differences in systolic blood pressure(SBP) ,diastolic blood pressure(DBP) ,heart rate(HR)and global end diastolic volume index (GEDI)as comparing baseline with 24 h ,4 d and 7 d after infusion of levosimendan. The significant differences were found in central venous pressure (CVP) ,systemic vessel resistance index (SVRI) , extravascular lung water index (EVLWI ) among baseline versus 24 h ,4 d and 7 d after infusion of levosimendan[(8.34± 2.87)mmHg vs.(6.35± 2.31),(6.81± 2.03),(5.92± 2.23)mmHgforCVP ,(2 682.0 ± 388.9)dyn·s-1·cm -5·m-2vs. (2 170.0 ± 410.9) ,(2 062.0 ± 340.6 ) ,(1 960.0 ± 380.2 )dyn ·s-1·cm-5·m-2for SVRI ,(8.90 ± 2.45)ml/kg vs. (6.60 ± 2.66) ,(5.92 ± 2.88) ,(5.46 ± 2.52) ml/kg for EVLWI ,P=0.001 ,0.003 or＜0.01 ,respectively].As compared with hemodynamic variables at baseline ,brain natriuretic peptide levels were decreased ,and cardiac index ,cardiac function index and stroke volume index were increased at 24 h ,4 d and 7 d after infusion of Levosimendan (P＜0.01 ,0.05 or 0.01 , respectively ). Conclusions A single-dose intravenous infusion of Levosimendan can increase cardiac output and decrease systemic vascular resistance in heart failure patients with low cardiac output ,which maintain quite a long time.

Objective:To investigate the levels of microRNA (miR) -106b-5p and miR-760 in the serum of early lung cancer patients, and the clinical value of the combination of them and low-dose spiral CT in the diagnosis of early lung cancer.Methods:Ninety early lung cancer patients (lung cancer group) who underwent treatment in Cangzhou People's Hospital of Hebei Province from January 2022 to March 2023 were collected as research subjects, meantime, 90 patients with benign pulmonary lesions (benign pulmonary nodules) diagnosed by pathology were selected as the control group. The levels of miR-106b-5p and miR-760 in the serum of two groups were compared, the results of low-dose spiral CT examination were analyzed; receiver operating characteristic curve was drawn to determine the optimal cut-off values of serum miR-106b-5p and miR-760; four grid table method was applied to analyze the diagnostic efficacy of serum miR-106b-5p, miR-760 combined with low-dose spiral CT for early lung cancer.Results:The level of miR-106b-5p in lung cancer group was higher than that in control group (1.39±0.31 vs. 1.04±0.30), serum miR-760 level was lower than that in control group (0.75±0.24 vs. 1.02±0.26), with statistically significant differences ( t=7.70, P<0.001; t=7.24, P<0.001). The area under curve (AUC) of miR-106b-5p, miR-760 and low-dose spiral CT in the diagnosis of early lung cancer was 0.83, 0.81 and 0.82, the accuracy was 76.67%, 77.22% and 81.67%, the sensitivity was 84.44%, 81.11% and 76.67%, and the specificity was 68.89%, 73.33% and 86.67%, respectively. The AUC, accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of serum miR-106b-5p, miR-760 combined with low-dose spiral CT in diagnosing early lung cancer were 0.96, 90.00%, 94.44%, and 85.56%, respectively. The accuracy of the three combined diagnosis was higher than that of individual diagnosis of miR-106b-5p, miR-760 and low-dose spiral CT ( χ2=11.52, P=0.001; χ2=10.72, P=0.001; χ2=5.14, P=0.023), the sensitivity of the three combined diagnosis was higher than that of individual diagnosis of miR-106b-5p, miR-760 and low-dose spiral CT ( χ2=4.77, P=0.029; χ2=7.46, P=0.006; χ2=11.51, P=0.001), the specificity of the three combined diagnosis was higher than that of individual diagnosis of miR-106b-5p, miR-760 ( χ2=7.11, P=0.008; χ2=4.12, P=0.042) . Conclusion:The serum level of miR-106b-5p is significantly increased in early lung cancer patients, while the serum level of miR-760 is significantly reduced. The combination of miR-106b-5p, miR-760 and low-dose spiral CT has high diagnostic value for early lung cancer.

Objective:To investigate the perinatal outcomes and risk factors of perinatal complications in preg-nant women with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy(HCM).Methods:A retrospective analysis was carried out on clini-cal data of 100 pregnant women with HCM who delivered in Obstetrical Cardiology Intensive Care Center of Shanghai Renji Hospital between Jan.2000 and Dec.2022.Analyze the incidence of perinatal complications inclu-ding miscarriage,premature birth,small for gestational age infants,neonatal asphyxia,neonatal cardiac malforma-tions and perinatal mortality.Independent risk factors of perinatal complications in pregnant women with HCM were identified using univariate and multivariate Logistic regression.Results:①The mean age was 29.21±4.41 years old,the average gestational age upon admission is 34.46±6.43 weeks.There were 16 patients with a fam-ily history of cardiomyopathy(16％),21 cases with obstructive HCM(21％)and 79 cases of non-obstructive HCM(79％),91 cases with abnormal ECG(91％),mainly with ST-T changes(77 cases,77％).The average in-terventricular septum was 19.39±6.13mm by echocardiography.②Among the 100 pregnancies of 100 HCM pa-tients,6 cases(6％)were miscarriages,94 newborns survived(94％),including 91 cases of cesarean section(91％)and 3 cases of vaginal delivery(3％).The predominant perinatal complications were preterm delivery(39 cases,39％),small for gestational age(5 cases,5％),neonatal asphyxia(3 cases,3％)and neonatal cardiac malformation(2 cases,2％).There were no perinatal deaths.③Univariate Logistic regression analysis showed that pre pregnancy heart function ≥ Grade Ⅱ,increased left atrial diameter,and concomitant pulmonary hyperten-sion were risk factors for perinatal complications in pregnant women with HCM(OR＞1,P＜0.05).Multivariate Lo-gistic regression analysis found that pre pregnancy heart function ≥ Grade Ⅱ was an independent risk factor for predicting the occurrence of perinatal complications in pregnant women with HCM(OR 6.270,P＜0.05).Conclu-sions:HCM during pregnancy can induce poor perinatal outcome.More attention should be paid to risk assess-ment and pregnancy management.Early detection of risk factors can reduce the incidence of perinatal complica-tions.
