2.Study of procalcitonin and C-reactive protein in predicting enterog-enous bacterial infection among diarrheal patients after irinotecan chemotherapy
Chinese Journal of Clinical Oncology 2015;(7):382-385
Objective:To investigate procalcitonin and C-reactive protein levels in diarrheal patients who underwent irinotecan che-motherapy. Methods:Procalcitonin and C-reactive protein were detected among 85 diarrheal and 63 non-diarrheal patients after irinote-can chemotherapy. Results:According to WHO classification, patients without diarrhea are classified as grade 0, whereas patients with diarrhea can be classified as gradesⅠ-Ⅳ. In grades 0,Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ, andⅣpatients, the levels of procalcitonin were 0.29 ± 0.17, 0.30 ± 0.18, 0.36 ± 0.20, 1.24 ± 0.22, and 2.15 ± 0.26 ng/mL on the second day, respectively. However, on the fourth day, the procalcitonin lev-els were 0.28 ± 0.15, 0.30 ± 0.14, 0.34 ± 0.18, 2.00 ± 0.22, and 2.40 ± 0.28 ng/mL, respectively. Moreover, in grades 0,Ⅰ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ, andⅣ, the levels of C-reactive protein were 6.06 ± 1.85, 6.12 ± 1.16, 6.20 ± 1.68, 22.62 ± 4.55, and 31.26 ± 5.23 mg/L on the second day, respectively. On the fourth day, the C-reactive protein levels were 5.80 ± 1.82, 5.94 ± 1.14, 6.15 ± 1.55, 30.52 ± 4.74, and 38.67 ± 5.68 mg/L, respectively. No significant difference was found between the procalcitonin and C-reactive protein levels of stagesⅠandⅡpa-tients (P>0.05), but a significant difference was found between stagesⅠ, andⅡpatients and stagesⅢandⅣpatients (P<0.05). Con-clusion: Monitoring levels of procalcitonin and C-reactive protein may be helpful in the early evaluation of the severity of diarrhea. This process has prognostic effect and can be used to assess whether patients have enterogenous bacterial infection. Monitoring the lev-els of these proteins has certain clinical value and can be used to guide early anti-infection therapy.

Chinese Journal of Digestive Endoscopy 1996;0(04):-
Objective To study on the effectiveness of endoscopy in diagnosing the gallbladder-intestine fistula. Methods The clinical datum of 24 patients with gallbladder-intestine fistula from January 1982 to March 2004 were reviewed and analyzed retrospectively. All patients were examined by endoscopy and confirmed from operation. Results Twenty-one out of 24 patients were finally diagnosed by endoscopy while 3 of them were misdiagnosed. Other examinations among the 24 patients included B ultrasound 11 , computer tomography (CT) 5, and abdominal plain films 7; none of them was finally diagnosed by these measures. Two out of 8 patients were finally diagnosed by barium meal or enema roentgenogram. Conclusion Endoscopy was an important method in diagnosing the gallbladder-intestine fistula. The diagnostic level would be improved if the specific characters of endoscopies in this entity were fully recognized.

Objective To investigate the changes of coagulation function in the neonates patients with gastrointestinal dysfunction and chnical significance. Methods Forty neonates with gastrointestinal dysfunction were included, which were divided into three groups according to diagnosis criterion of gastrointestinal dysfunction: early group, medium group and late group. Coagulation function was tested and neonatal critical illness score(NCIS) was done. Forty normal neonates were selected as control group. The difference of coagulation function among all groups was observed, and the relationship between coagulation function and NCIS were evaluated. Results Compared with control group, the indexs of coagulation function of early group was no statistical difference (P>0.05), however the result between medium group and late group was significantly difference (P<0.05). The difference of coagulation function between medium group and late group was also significant (P<0.05), the lower NCIS was, the more serious the gastrointestinal function was. Conclusions The more serious the gastrointestinal dysfunction is, the poorer the coagulation function is and the lower the NCIS is, which suggest coagulation function should be monitored in neonates with gastrointestinal dysfunction, and early intervention should be done accordingly.
