Chinese Journal of Emergency Medicine 2014;23(10):1151-1154
Objective To explore the clinical value of serum Ang-1,Ang-2 and IL-8 in ARDS prediction.Methods Totally 283 critically ill patients admitted in EICU of the Hunan Provincial People's Hospital from January 2012 to July 2013 were enrolled in this study and divided into the non-ARDS group (n =251) and ARDS group (n =32) depending on the development of ARDS.According to the occurrence of death in the following 60 days,the non-ARDS group and the ARDS group were further subdivided into the non-ARDS survival group,the non-ARDS death group,thc ARDS survival group and the ARDS death group.The differences in serum Ang-1,Ang-2 and IL-8 concentrations between these four groups measured by ELISA on admission were analyzed by statistical methods and ROC curve.Results The EICU stays,duration of mechanical ventilation,APACHE Ⅱ score、serum Ang-2 and IL-8 levels in the ARDS group were significantly higher than those in the non-ARDS group,while the Ang-1 level in the ARDS group was significantly lower than that in the non-ARDS group.The serum Ang-2 and IL-8 concentrations in the ARDS death group were significantly higher than those in the non-ARDS survival group and the non-ARDS death group,and the serum Ang-2 concentrations in the ARDS death group were also significantly higher than those in the ARDS survival group.Further ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of Ang-2 for ARDS diagnosis and ARDS death prediction were 0.907 and 0.899 respectively and their diagnostic sensitivity and specificity were 0.969 and 0.725,0.907 and 0.882 respectively,illustrating that Ang-2 possess the best diagnostic efficiency.Conclusions Ang-2 functions as a valuable biomarker for early diagnosis and prognosis of ARDS.

·AIM: To investigate the effect of vitamin A on the conjunctival goblet cells of rat after corneal transplantation.·METHODS: Rat graft rejection models of corneal transplantation were established. SD rats were receptor and Wistar rats were donors. After corneal allografts were performed, 48 SD rats were randomly divided into three groups, 16 rats in each group. Group A was blank control group; group B was treated by oculotect gel (containing vitamin A); group C was treated by 1g/L dexamethasone eyedrops. Besides, group D was normal unoperated eyes.Slit-lamp microscope was employed to record and compare rejection index (RI) of corneal transplantation. Through HE,PAS staining of conjunctival histological sections and image analysis system, the number and morphology of conjunctival goblet cells were observed and analyzed between operation group and normal group.·RESULTS: The HE, PAS staining detection showed that the number of conjunctival goblet cells in oculotect gel group,1g/L dexamethasone eyedrops group and control group is lower than that in normal group after surgery (P<0.01). The number of conjunctival goblet cells in oculotect gel group and 1g/L dexamethasone eyedrops group is higher than that in control group (P<0.05). The number of conjunctival goblet cells in 1g/L dexamethasone eyedrops group is higher than that in oculotect gel group (P<0.05).·CONCLUSION: The results indicate that vitamin A may inhibit the decrease of conjunctival goblet cells after corneal allograft rejection in rats.

Objective To evaluate the effect of clinical pathway management on pediatric capillary bronchitis. Methods Infants with capillary bronchitis admitted to our hospital were selected. Several indices were compared between the infants with and without clinical pathway management including hospital stay, costs of hospitalization, satisfaction in parents of children, cure rate, readmission rate one week after discharge, hospital infection and variation in the process of clinical pathway manage-ment. Results A total of 204 eligible infants were divided into research group (n=96) and control group (n=108). There were no signiifcant differences in sex, age, respiratory rate, heart rate and temperature, and detection rate of respiratory syncytial virus in nasopharyngeal secretion and sputum culture (P>0.05). Compared with the infants in control group, the total drug costs, the an-tibiotics costs and the average length of stay were signiifcantly decreased in infants with clinical pathway management (P<0.05). There were no signiifcant differences in such indices as satisfaction in parents of children, cure rate, readmission rate one week after discharge and hospital infection rate between two groups (P>0.05). In research group, 49 infants (51.04%) completed the clinical pathway management. Positive variance was found in 43 infants (44.79%) and negative variance in 4 infants (4.17%). Two infants (2.08%) dropped out. Conclusions For capillary bronchitis in infants, clinical pathway management has an effect on controlling and reducing the medical expenses, and meanwhile improving the medical quality and satisfaction of patients.

Objective To investigate the distribution of etiological agents in children with asthma exacerbation in Chongqing during 2013 .Methods Four hundred and forty seven cases of hospitalized children with asthma exacerbation in 2013 in Children′s Hospital of Chongqing Medical University were retrospectively analyzed in SPSS19 .0 software .Results Among the 447 children with asthma exacerbation ,the percentage of bacteria was 43 .8% ,streptococcus pneumonia(SP)(25 .5% ) was the most common bacteria .Among the 25 cases with bacteria culture of bronchoalveolar lavage ,the positive rate was 44 .0% ,and the difference to sputum culture was not significant (P>0 .05) .The positive rate of 7 common respiratory viruses was 27 .3% ,RSV accounted for 18 .8% ,and it was the most common virus .The virus infection rate was higher in the groups below one years old ,and compared each groups′virus detection rates ,the difference was significant (P< 0 .05) .The positive rate of mycoplasma pneumoniae was 23 .5% ,chlamydia pneumonia was not detected .Conclusion Asthma exacerbation in children is closely related to respiratory infec‐tion .Bacteria detection rate was high in all ages ,which suggests that bacterial infection is an important factor in asthma exacerbation that can′t be ignored .
