Objective To study the dynamic changes of plasma C-reactive protein (CRP) and cortisol (COR) and their clinical value in prognosis of patients with sepsis. Methods Daily CRP and COR detection was conducted to record the dynamic changes of CRP and COR for cases of sepsis patients in ICU then the rela-tionship between dynamic changes of serum CRP and COR and prognosis were analyzed. Results Serum CRP and COR levels of dead patients were significantly higher than those of survival patients after treatment (P <0.05). According to the difference of the dynamic changes of CRP and COR, the data were divided into typeⅠ:sustained elevated type , typeⅡ: up-and-down type , type Ⅲ: fluctuated type and type Ⅳ: normal or mild ele-vation type. The mortality of CRP typeⅠ patients was significantly higher than that of type Ⅱ and type Ⅳ(P <0.001). The mortality of COR typeⅠ and COR Ⅲ patients was significantly higher than that in COR Ⅱand COR Ⅳ (P < 0.001). Further analysis showed that the mortality of group with significant elevation of CRP and COR were obviously higher than that of group with significant increase of CRP or COR and that of group with no significant elevation of CRP and COR (P < 0.001); the mortality of group with significant increase of CRP or COR was also significantly higher than that of group with no significant elevation of CRP and COR (P < 0.001). Conclusions The dynamic changes of COR and CRP in patients with sepsis present certain regularity and monitor-ing the dynamic changes of the two provides accurate assessment of the prognosis of sepsis.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects and mechanism of extract of Apocynum venetum (AV) on kidneys of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Diabetes mellitus (DM) was induced in rats by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ). The indexes of the blood glucose, renal function and oxidative stress were observed. The DM rats were administrated with the AV for 8 weeks, the above-mentioned indexes were detected. The blood glucose level, BUN, 24 h urine protein excretion, urine volume, renal index, renal cortex's MDA level in model groups all increased significantly. Renal cortex's SOD and GSH activities decreased significantly compared with the normal control group (P < 0.05). The above-mentioned indexes were significantly improved by the AV treatment (P < 0.05). AV have protective effects on renal function of kidneys of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats, and maybe via inhibition of the renal oxidative stress.

Objective:To detect the factors related to hemocytopenia and interstitial lung disease (ILD) secondary to primary Sj?gren's syndrome (pSS) in in-patients.Methods:Clinical characteristics of patients with pSS hospitalized in China-Japan Friendship Hospital from March 2014 to October 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into different groups according to hemocytopenia and ILD. Chi-square test and Mann-Whitney U test were used to compare data in subgroups, and logistic regression were used to detect factors related to hemocytopenia and ILD secondary to pSS. Results:Five hundred and seventy-one inpatients with pSS were included in this study and the female: male ratio was 8∶1. Two hundred and seventy five of included patients had hemocytopenia (48.2%) and 180 patients had ILD (31.5%). Compared with patients without hemocytopenia, patients with hemocytopenia had higher ratio in low C3 [ OR=2.326, 95% CI(1.483, 3.650), P<0.01] and elevation of erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) [ OR=1.912, 95% CI(1.233, 2.964), PP<0.01) . Compared with patients without ILD, patients with ILD showed higher ratio in male[ OR=2.509, 95% CI(1.269, 4.959), P<0.01) and fatigue [ OR=5.190, 95% CI(5.190, 13.931), P<0.01) , lower positive rate of anti-SSA antibody [ OR=0.392, 95% CI(0.230, 0.668), P<0.01) and anti-CENPB [ OR=0.337, 95% CI(0.145, 0.782), P<0.01] antibodies, and lower ratio in low C3[ OR=0.332, 95% CI(0.189, 0.582), P<0.01]. Conclusion:Low C3 and high ESR may be risk factors for developing hemocytopenia in patients with pSS. Men with pSS may be susceptible to ILD, while pSS patients with ILD may have lower ratio in positive anti-SSA antibody, positive anti-CENPB antibody and low C3. All of these findings are yet to be validated by future prospective cohort studies.

Objective:To investigate the correlation of lung ultrasound score and poor prognosis in internal shock patients in intensive care unit (ICU).Methods:The clinical data of 200 shock patients admitted to the ICU of Wuzhou Red Cross Hospital from July 2019 to June 2021 were selected for study. According to the prognosis of patients, they were divided into survival group and death group. The clinical data of shock patients in ICU with different prognosis were analyzed by single factor analysis, multiple factor regression analysis and predictive value analysis.Results:All patients were followed up. The end point of the study was death or transfer from ICU. The follow-up period was 28 days, with a median of 16 days. The 28-day survival rate (OS) of all patients was 62.5%(125/200). The Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score, prothrombin time (PT), Fbg, D-dimer(D-D), lactic acid, oxygenation index and lung ultrasound score of the patients in the survival group and the death group were significantly different (all P<0.05), while other indexes were not significantly different (all P>0.05). The results of COX multivariate analysis showed that APACHE Ⅱ score, lactate, and lung ultrasound score were independent prognostic factors of shock patients in ICU (all P<0.05). The survival curves of patients with different lung ultrasound scores were significantly different ( P<0.05). The higher the lung ultrasound score, the lower the 28-day survival rate ( P<0.05). The receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve analysis showed that the area under curve (AUC), sensitivity and specificity of predicting the prognosis of patients with lung ultrasound score were 0.753, 76.0% and 71.2%, respectively; The AUC , sensitivity and specificity of APACHE Ⅱ score were 0.774, 77.3% and 79.2% respectively; The AUC, sensitivity and specificity of lactic acid were 0.783, 81.3% and 68.8% respectively, with no significant difference (all P>0.05). Conclusions:The lung ultrasound score , lactic acid and APACHE Ⅱ scores are independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of ICU shock patients, and have considerable predictive value.

ObjectiveTo analyze and sum up the medication rule and the core prescription of Professor LIU Minru in the treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome (intracellular lipid membrane congestion syndrome)and explore the effect mechanism underlying the medication. MethodTwo platforms were used to carry out data mining to analyze the characteristics and rules of Professor LIU's prescriptions for the treatment of this disease. Network pharmacology was used to further clarify active ingredients in the core prescription,and a traditional Chinese medicine-active ingredient-target network was constructed,with the potential mechanism of action analyzed. ResultA total of 321 prescriptions were included in the medical records,involving 178 Chinese medicinals and 28 kinds of formula granules.The Chinese medicinals mainly act on the liver and kidney meridians, whose main tastes were sweetness,pungency,and bitterness and properties were mainly warm,mild,and slightly cold.Commonly used medicine pairs include Dioscoreae Rhizoma-Rehmanniae Radix Praeparata,Chuanxiong Rhizoma-Angelicae Sinensis Radix,Bupleuri Radix-Aurantii Fructus,and Gleditsiae Spina-Curcumae Rhizoma.The commonly used formulas are Xuefu Zhuyutang,Siwugang,Yangjing Zhongyutang,etc. The core prescription is composed of 12 Chinese medicinals such as angelica,white peony,saponaria thorn,and epimedium,containing 74 active ingredients,including quercetin,luteolin,kaempferol,fisetin,and β-sitosterol.A total of 37 key targets were found,involving phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (Akt),mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK),Janus protein tyrosine kinase (JAK)/signal transduction and activator of transcription (STAT),and other signaling pathways. ConclusionThe pathogenesis of this disease is complex.Professor LIU adheres to the pathogenesis of "kidney deficiency as the root cause,and phlegm retention as the symptom". Under the guidance of the academic ideology of "kidney Qi as the root,and protecting Yin as the foundation" and "nurturing Yin to support Yang",she takes into account Yin and Yang in kidney tonic,replenishes and consolidates the essence and blood,and relieves manifestations by dissipating mass, activating blood, and regulating Qi. She has a rigorous thinking in formulating prescriptions. The core prescription has the characteristics of comprehensive regulation by multiple components at multiple targets in multiple pathways.

To investigate the effects of cigarette smoking in different manners on acute lung injury in rats.The commercially available cigarettes with tar of 1,5, 11 mg were smoked in Canada depth smoking (health canada method, HCM) manner, and those with tar of 11 mg were also smoked in international standard (ISO) smoking manner. Rats were fixed and exposed to mainstream in a manner of nose-mouth exposure. After 28 days, the bronchoalveolar lavage fluids from left lung were collected for counting and classification of inflammatory cells and determination of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β and TNF-α. The right lungs were subjected to histological examination and determination of myeloperoxidase (MPO) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities and glutathione, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels.In both HCM and ISO manners, the degree of lung injury was closely related to the tar content of cigarettes, and significant decrease in the body weight of rats was observed after smoking for one week. In a HCM manner, smoking with cigarette of 11 mg tar resulted in robust infiltration of macrophages, lymphocytes and neutrophils into lungs, significant increase in IL-1β and TNF-α levels and MPO activities, and significant decrease in GSH levels and SOD activities and increase in ROS and MDA levels (all<0.05). Smoking with cigarette of 5 mg tar led to moderate increase in IL-1β and TNF-α levels, and MPO activities (all<0.05), and moderate decrease in GSH levels and SOD activities and increase of ROS and MDA levels (all<0.05). However, smoking with cigarette of 1 mg tar affected neither inflammatory cell infiltration nor IL-1β and TNF-α levels.Cigarette smoking in nose-mouth exposure manner can induce acute lung injury in rats; and the degree of lung injury is closely related to the content of tar and other hazards in cigarettes.

BACKGROUNDGlaucoma secondary to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is an uncommon but serious complication that threatens vision and therefore cannot be neglected. A few cases of secondary glaucoma resulting from lupus-induced or iatrogenic ocular impairments have been reported in association with SLE. However, a systematic analysis of the diagnosis and treatment of glaucoma secondary to SLE has not been reported in the literature. The aim of this study is to further investigate the relationship between glaucoma and SLE.
METHODSIn this study, we reviewed nine eyes of five patients diagnosed with secondary glaucoma associated with SLE, including one case of neovascular glaucoma and four cases of steroid-induced glaucoma.
RESULTSNeovascular glaucoma was successfully treated by Ahmed glaucoma valve implantation surgery with adjunctive ranibizumab intravitreal injection, followed by panretinal photocoagulation (PRP). The steroid-induced glaucoma in eight eyes of four cases were controlled by trabeculectomy along with antiproliferative agents.
CONCLUSIONRegular follow-up ocular examinations should be conducted to ensure early diagnosis and treatment of secondary glaucoma in SLE patients to improve the prognosis of vision.
