Objective To evaluate the diagnostic and predict value of procalcitonin (PCT) levels in patients diagnosis of sepsis with immune system defect in the intensive care unit (ICU).Methods This is a retrospective analysis.We enrolled 278 patients diagnosis of sepsis in Emergency ICU,general ICU and Respiratory ICU in Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from October 2011 to September 2012.Among them,122 patients have normal immune function and 156 patients have auto-immune system diseases or/and requiring corticosteroids or chemotherapy.According to the APACHE Ⅱ score,patients were divided into low-risk group,middle-risk group and high-risk group,and their PCT levels were compared.Logistic regression analysis of the multiple factors was used to screen independent risk factors for predicting 7 days' mortality.The predictive ability was also evaluated and compared between the first time of PCT concentration after admission and dynamic change of PCT within the first week with area under receiver operator's characteristic curve (ROC curve,AUC).Result The results of Spearman correlation analysis showed that there was a significant positive correlation between the patients' PCT concentration and APACHE Ⅱ score (r =0.979,P < 0.05).And there was a positive correlation between the first PCT concentration after admission and 7 days' mortality in-hospital (r =0.826,P < 0.05).Multiple factors logistic regression analysis indicated that both the first time PCT concentration after admission and APACHE Ⅱ score of patients were independent risk factors for predicting 7 days' mortality (PCT OR =1.77,95% CI =1.28-3.83,P =0.0023).The warning value of 7 days' mortality for patients with normal immune function was PCT≥7.18 ng/ml and for those with abnormal immune function was PCT ≥ 3.52 ng/ml.Compared to dynamic monitoring of PCT,there was no significant difference in sensitivity but specificity is less than the dynamic monitoring of PCT.Conclusions The diagnostic and predict value of procalcitonin (PCT) levels were not affected by the immuno-suppressive therapy.The first time PCT concentration after admission was an independent risk factor for predict of 7 days' mortality in ICU patients with sepsis.The PCT warning value of the sepsis patients with abnormal immune function was much lower compared to those with normal immune function.

Objective To assess the value of endoluminal convex array probe combined with high frequency linear array probe in diagnosis of internal carotid artery occlusion, and to improve the diagnostic accuracy rate of ultrasonography. Methods Patients suspected with ischemic cerebrovascular disease (n=490) were examined by carotid ultrasound. First, suspicious patients with carotid artery occlusion were selected using high-frequency linear array probe, then screen results were confirmed by endoluminal convex array probe and compared with previous results in those patients. Results Sixty eight patients,who were suspected of internal carotid artery occlusion,were screened out by high-frequency linear array probe. Results were re-examined by endoluminal convex array probe, 42 patients were diagnosed as internal carotid artery occlusion, 19 patients were diagnosed as severe stenosis as the internal carotid artery and 7 patients were diagnosed as ca?rotid artery tortuosity with no significant stenosis. Conclusion Endoluminal convex array probe is an effective complement for internal carotid arterial inspection when it combines with high-frequency linear probe. It can improve the diagnostic accu?racy rate of degree and the range in internal carotid artery occlusion and stenosis, therefore reduce chances of misdiagnosis.

Objective To study the changes of gastrin 17 (G17) and pepsinogen (PG) after gastric bypass surgery in gastric antrum resection, and the influences of different surgical methods on postoperative peptic ulcer. Methods Clinical data of 63 patients with gastric bypass surgery in our hospital from October 2013 to October 2015 were divided into resection of pyloric antrum group (n=33) and preserved pyloric antrum group (n=30). The values of G17, PGⅠ, PGⅡand PGⅠ/PGⅡwere detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay at 1 month, 6 months and 12 months after operation. The correlation between the different surgical methods and the incidence of peptic ulcer was analyzed between two groups. Results The G17 levels were significantly decreased in resection of pyloric antrum group 6 and 12 months after operation than those in preserved pyloric antrum group (P<0.05). Compared with preserved pyloric antrum group,PGⅠ and PGⅡ levels was significantly decreased 12 months after operation (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the ratio PGⅠ/PGⅡat 1 month, 6 months and 12 months after operation between two groups (P>0.05). There was no significant difference in postoperative peptic ulcer between two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion Gastric bypass after resection of the pyloric antrum can reduce the postoperative secretion of G17, PGⅠ and PGⅡ, but which can not reduce the incidence of postoperative anastomotic ulcer.
