Objective The present paper compared the ion residues including cations residues and anions residues in autosampler plastic vials from 4 different ion chromatography companies and discussed the relationship between soaking duration time and ion releasing. Methods The separation and determination were carried out by IonPac CS12A cation exchange column, MSA isocratic eluent together with suppressed conductivity detector; and IonPac AS15 anion exchange column, NaOH isocratic eluent together with suppressed conductivity detector. 4 plastic vials from 4 companies were soaked in DI water with a particular volume followed by injecting the liquid samples to IC system in order to measure residue ions with low level(?g/L). Results The detection limits were 0.79-5.28 ?g/L.The linear range were 1-20 000 ?g/L for Cl-, NO2-, NO3-, SO42-, Na+, K+, Mg2+, Ca2+. The linear coefficients were 0.998 3-0.999 9. RSDs were below 3%.The recovery rates were 83.3%-112%. Conclusion This method satisfies the requirement of practical examination, and the suitable methods for repairing the plastic vials of autosampler is proposed.

Objective To analyze the clinical characteristics of bloodstream infection in patients with immune function inhibition. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted. 234 patients with bloodstream infection admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) of the Affiliated Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School from August 1st in 2015 to December 31st in 2017 were enrolled. According to the immune function on the day of bloodstream infection, they were divided into normal immune function group [human leukocyte antigen DR (HLA-DR) > 30%, n = 144] and immunosuppression group (HLA-DR ≤30%, n = 90). The gender, age, primary disease, complication, acute physiology and chronic health evaluationⅡ (APACHEⅡ) with 24 hours after ICU admission, sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, etiology, infection parameters on the day of bloodstream infection [peak temperature, white blood count (WBC), neutrophils ratio, procalcitonin (PCT), and C-reactive protein (CRP)] and prognosis parameters (bacterial clearance time, the length of ICU and hospital stay, 28-day mortality) between the two groups were analyzed. Results 234 patients were enrolled in the final analysis, including 132 males and 102 females, with an average age of (60.5±18.4) years old. Severe pneumonia and abdominal infection were the main causes of primary diseases. There was no significant difference in gender composition, age, APACHEⅡ, SOFA score, other complications and primary morbidity between the two groups except that the proportion of malignant tumors in the immunosuppressive group was higher than that in the normal immune function group [43.3% (39/90) vs. 41.7% (60/144), P < 0.05]. Compared with the normal immune function group, the Gram-positive cocci infection rate in the immunosuppressive group was significantly lowered [40.0% (36/90) vs. 56.2% (81/144)], Gram-negative bacilli infection rate [50.0% (45/90) vs. 39.6% (57/144)] and fungus infection rate [10.0% (9/90) vs. 4.2% (6/144)] were significantly increased (both P < 0.05). The levels of WBC, neutrophils ratio, and PCT on the day of bloodstream infection in the immunosuppressive group were significantly lower than those of normal immune function group [WBC (×109/L): 10.2±2.1 vs. 13.5±3.6, neutrophils ratio: 0.87±0.17 vs. 0.96±0.22, PCT (μg/L): 1.3±1.1 vs. 4.7±2.1, all P < 0.05], but no significant difference in the peak temperature (℃: 38.5±1.7 vs. 38.9±1.3) or CRP (mg/L: 134.0±42.6 vs. 164.0±55.8) was found as compared with normal immune function group (both P > 0.05). Compared with the normal immune function group, the bacterial clearance time in the immunosuppressive group was significantly prolonged (days: 16.0±10.1 vs. 12.3±4.7), 28-day mortality was significantly increased [61.1% (55/90) vs. 44.4% (64/144)] with statistical significances (both P < 0.05), but no significance was found in the length of ICU stay (days: 21.0±17.1 vs. 18.7±10.4) or the length of hospital stay (days: 36.0±28.1 vs. 33.8±16.8, both P > 0.05). Conclusion Gram-negative bacilli was the main pathogen of bloodstream infection in immunosuppressive patients, and the fungal infection rate was high, inflammation reaction was not obvious, bacterial clearance time was long, and prognosis was poor.

Objective To investigate the effects of protein intake in the early phase and later phase on the outcomes of critically ill patients.Methods A total of 326 critically ill patients admitted in intensive care unit of our hospital from September 2016 to March 2018 were enrolled in this prospective observational study.According to the 28-day prognosis of patients,they were divided into death group and survival group.Early protein target (EPT) was defined as the daily protein intake≥0.8 g/ (kg · d) on days 1-3,and late protein target (LPT) was defined as the daily protein intake≥0.8 g/ (k · d) on days 4-7.Results Daily protein intakes on day 1 and day 3 and cumulative protein intakes on days 1-3 were significantly higher in non-survivors than in the survivors (P<0.05),but daily protein intakes on day 2,4,5,6 and 7 and cumulative protein intakes on days 4-7 and 1-7 showed no significant difference between two groups (P>0.05).Hospital mortality was the lowest in the LPT group,the highest in the EPT,and in the middle in the EPT+LPT group and non-EPT+non-LPT group (P<0.05).The survival curve analysis showed that the survival time of the EPT-only group was significantly lower than that of the LPT-only group (P<0.05).Multivariate analysis showed that age,sex,cumulative protein and caloric intakes on days 1-7 were the independent risk factors for mortality.Conclusion Early low protein intake is benefit for the outcomes of critically ill patients,and combined with adequate intake of protein in the later stage may further improve the outcomes.
