1.Progress or screening and prognosis evaluation of cytomegalovirus infection in perinatal period
International Journal of Pediatrics 2012;39(3):237-241
Cytomegalovirus (CMV),a DNA herpusvirusesw,is the most common virus leading to intrauterine infetcion.It is transmitted from mother to fetus through placenta,and the neonates who suffering from congenital symptomatic infections may have sensorineural hearing loss,hepatosplenomegaly,microcephaly,chorioretinitis etc.Studies have suggested that the characters of infections on pregnant women,such as the time of infection,the serological results and virus load in amniotic fluid are associated with the outcome of offsprings.This paper is to review the risk of CMV infections on women at childbearing age,screening of CMV infections on pregnant women and the prenatal diagonosis of fetal CMV infection.
2.Fasting blood glucose and prognosis of patients surviving over 1 year after renal transplantation
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2015;(24):3924-3928
BACKGROUND:Diabetes mel itus after kidney transplantation is an important metabolic complication of the transplanted organ, and seriously affects the quality of life and long-term survival rate of patients, which is a risk factor for renal al ograft dysfunction and cardiovascular disease. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the changes in fasting blood glucose and prognosis of patients who had survived more than 1 year after renal transplantation. METHODS:Total y 42 patients undergoing renal transplantation admitted at Xiantao First People’s Hospital from January 2003 to January 2013, including 7 cases of preoperative diabetes, 11 cases of impaired fasting glucose and 24 cases of normal fasting blood glucose. Fasting blood glucose levels were detected at 1, 7, 14 days and 1, 3, 6, 12 months after renal transplantation, and the survival conditions were also compared among different groups. Cox proportional hazard model was used to analyze influential factors of survival in patients undergoing renal transplantation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The fasting blood glucose levels in the diabetes mel itus group were significantly higher than those in the impaired fasting glucose group and normal fasting blood glucose group before and after renal transplantation (P<0.05). The fasting blood glucose levels were increased in al the groups at 1 day after transplantation (P<0.05), and stabilized at 3 months after transplantation. The survival rate was significantly higher in the normal fasting blood glucose group than in the diabetes mel itus and impaired fasting glucose groups after renal transplantation (P<0.05). Cox proportional hazard model analysis showed that preoperative fasting blood glucose, age, postoperative tumor and infection were the independent risk factors for death in patients undergoing renal transplantation, among which, postoperative tumor led to the highest death risk ratio that was 2.376. Taken together, preoperative diabetes mel itus has some impacts on renal recipients who survive more than 1 year fol owing transplantation, but postoperative diabetes mel itus had no influence on the survival rate of the patients.
3.Applicable traditional dose of CRRT for critically ill patients with AKI
Chinese Journal of Practical Internal Medicine 2001;0(06):-
AKI is one of the frequent complications of critically ill patients,which is associated with high mortality.RRT is the main treatment,especially CRRT nowadays.But the optimal dosage of CRRT is unclear.In this article,we will review the evidence of CRRT in critically ill patients with AKI.Compared with traditional dosage of CRRT,high dose CRRT did not improve the clinical outcome.There was no difference in mortality rate,time for renal recovery,ICU hospitalization time,or organ failure in both groups,while there were more complications including hypokalemia and hypophosphatemia in the high dose CRRT group.Treatment with high dose CRRT could alter drug metabolism,cause malnutrition,unbalance the electrolyzes and cause hypothermia.So we conclude that traditional dosage of CRRT[20~35 mL/(kg?h)]is applicable for critically ill patients with AKI,but the determination of optimal dose depends on many clinical situations other than clearance of small solutes.
