International Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2017;38(7):941-942,945
Objective To study the relationship between insulin resistance with cardiac function and cardiovascular events in the patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome(OSAS).Methods Eithy-eight cases of SHAS in our hospital from August 2015 to August 2016 were selected as the research subjects,and contemporaneous 20 persons undergoing healthy physical examination served as the control group.The blood glucose metabolism indicators were detected for evaluiating the level of insulin resistance.The insulin resistance and glucose metabolism indexes were compared between the two groups.The relatioship between insulin resistance with cardiac function and cardiovascular events in the OSAS was investigated.Results BMI,HOMA-IR,FPG and FINS in the observation group were (28.1± 3.9),(4.7 ±1.9),(4.8± 0.9) and (19.8± 3.7) respectively,which were significantly higher than those in the healthy control group,LVEF in the observation group was (58.7±5.6)%,which was significantly lower than that in the control group,LVEDP,RVEDP and mPAP in the observation group were 8.6±1.8,5.4±0.9 and 25.4±1.9 respectively,which were significantly higher than those in the control group,the multivariate analysis results indicated that LVEF<55%(P=0.014) and HOMA-IR>4.5(P=0.04) were the independent risk factors for cardiovascular events in OSAS patients.Conclusion The insulin resistance has obvious correlation with the cardiac function in OSAS patients.

Objective To observe the effect and the influence on PCT,CRP in the treatment of patients with acute exacerbation pulmonary disease by Budesonide and ipratropium bromide.Methods 80 patients with acute exacerbation pulmonary disease were randomly divided into 40 cases of the control group and 40 cases of the observa-tion group,the two groups were given routine treatment,the control group then had been given ipratropium bromide for 7d,and the observation group had been given Budesonide and ipratropium bromide for 7d,the blood gas indicators (PaO2 ,PCO2 ),pulmonary function (FEV1 ,PEF,FEV1 /FVC),dyspnoea and exercise tolerance score,serum PCT levels,serum CRP levels and clinical efficacy were compared,Adverse reactions were recorded.Results (1 )the PaO2 ,FEV1 ,PEF,FEV1 /FVC of the observation group and the control group after treatment were (70.7 ±2.3)mmHg and (62.5 ±3.0)mmHg,(2.15 ±0.63)L and (1.76 ±0.56)L,(3.49 ±0.82)L/s and (3.06 ±0.75)L/s, (68.52 ±6.53)% and (60.14 ±6.03)%,These indicators were significantly higher than those before treatment,all P <0.05,the PCO2 ,PCT,CRP were (51.4 ±1.7)mmHg and (56.6 ±2.3)mmHg,(1.75 ±1.20)μg/L and (2.58 ± 1.17)μg/L,(10.25 ±6.77)mg/L and (19.07 ±5.75)mg/L,These indicators were significantly lower than those before treatment,all P <0.05,the PaO2 ,FEV1 ,PEF,FEV1 /FVC of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group,the PCO2 ,PCT,CRP were significantly lower than those of the control group,all P <0.05;(2)The dyspnoea and exercise tolerance score of the observation group and the control group after treatment was significantly lower than those before treatment,the dyspnoea and exercise tolerance score of the observation group was significantly lower than those of the control group;(3)The clinical total effective rate of the observation group was 90%,which was higher than 65% of the control group(χ2 =7.312,P <0.05).Conclusion The method containing Budesonide and ipratropium bromide Inhalation has exact effect,and can effectively improve respiratory function, which is an effective treatment of choice for acute exacerbation of COPD.

Objective To investigate the effect and safety of urinary kallidinogenase on acute cerebral infarction.Methods One hundred and sixty-four patients with acute cerebral infarction were randomly divided into two groups:treatment group with urinary kallidinogenase(86 cases)and control group (78 cases).According to Chinese guidelines for prevention and management cerebrovascular disease,two groups were treated with basic therapy,such as antiplatelet,neurologic protection,blood pressure control,and so on.On basis of control group,treatment group Was administrated intravenous injection of urinary kallidinogenase 0.15 PNA U per day for 10 days.The primary efficacy Was evaluated by the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS)score and Barthel index.Results The score of NIHSS and Barthel index at 15 days after treatment in the treatment group were higher than those in the control group[(6.67±3.02)scores vs(7.42±3.02)scores;75.36±23.56 vs 68.36±22.36,P<0.05].Urinary kallidinogenase could significantly reduce neurological deficits in big artherosclerosis type by TOAST typing.Conclusion Urinary kallidinogenase may be effective and safe in the treatment of acute cerebral infarction.

Objective Letter fluency test is one of the important neuropsychological tests which can examine the cognitive function of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) of human brain.However,there is no successful Chinese version.This research is trying to develop a Chinese letter fluency test similar to the English version,and to provide an effective approach to investigate the function of the PFC of the native Chinese speakers.Methods Thirty 19 ~33 years old healthy native Chinese speakers were chosen (13 men and 17 women).The near-infrared spectroscopy was used to observe the activation of the PFC while the participants carried out the Chinese letter fluency tests.Some of the participants carried out three kinds of letter fluency tests and category fluency test.Results The average score of the Chinese letter fluency test using syllable cue in 60 s was 12.8 ±4.7.The relative value of [oxy-Hb] in 12 channels of 13 ones located in the PFC during carrying out the test was higher than before and after the test significantly (P< 0.05 ).Conclusion The novel Chinese letter fluency test using syllable cue is similar to the English version formally.The objective evidence shows that it can activate neural activity located in the PFC of human brain, and can be applied to the native Chinese speakers as a neuropsychological test investigating the function of the PFC.
