Objective To investigate the predictive value of serum human epididymis protein 4(HE4)levels in primary Sj?gren's syndrome(pSS)patients for renal injury.Methods A retrospective analysis of 77 pSS patients admitted to the Second People's Hospital of Yichang from September 2021 to August 2023 was performed,including 43 cases of renal injury group 34 instances of non-renal injury group,and 54 healthy physical examination subjects(HCs)as control group.Fasting peripheral venous blood(4ml)was collected to detect the serum levels of HE4,Cys-C,TNF-α,CR,C3,C4,immunoglobulin,Anti-SSA,Anti-SSB and other indicators,and analyzed the value of HE4 in the early diagnosis of kidney injury in pSS patients.Results Compared with HCs,the pSS patients had increased levels of HE4(120.02±103.86 pmol/L vs 57.5±16.52 pmol/L),Cys-C(1.30±0.81mg/L vs 0.87±014 mg/L),and the differences were statistically significant(t=4.382,3.860,all P<0.05).The serum levels of HE4,CR and TNF-α in the renal damage group were higher than those in the non-renal damage group,and the differences were statistically significant(t/χ2=2.552~4.371,all P<0.05).Pearson correlation analysis showed that,the levels of serum HE4,Cys-C,CR and TNF-α were all positively correlated with renal damage in pSS(r=0.287~0.546,all P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that elevated serum HE4 level might be an independent risk factor for inducing renal damage in pSS(Wald χ2=11.932,P<0.05).Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve analysis showed that the best cut-offvalue of serum HE4 for the diagnosis of pSS renal damage was 70.46pmol/L,the maximum Youden index was 0.625,AUC(95%CI)=0.876(0.799~0.954).Conclusion The serum HE4 level in patients with pSS is positively correlated with renal injury and has predictive value for the occurrence of renal injury.

Objective To observe value of 0D-1D coupling model and 3D fluid-structure interaction(FSI)model based on coronary CT angiography(CCTA)for displaying hemodynamic characteristics of coronary artery stenosis.Methods Based on CCTA data of the stenosed left anterior descending branch(LAD)in a patient with coronary heart disease,an 0D-1D coupling model and 3D FSI model were built,respectively.Then hemodynamic characteristic indexes,including the pressure,flow velocity and wall shear stress(WSS)were obtained in every 0.01 s during 1 s at 5 sampling points(i.e.sampling point 1-5)using these 2 models,respectively,and the consistencies of the results between models were evaluated with Spearman correlation coefficient rs.Results The time consuming for construction of 0D-1D coupling model and 3D FSI model was 0.033 min and 704 min,respectively.Both models showed basically distribution of the pressure,flow velocity and WSS of the stenosed LAD.For more details,the pressure at the stenosed segment of LAD and the proximal segment of stenosis were both higher,which gradually decreased at the distal segment of stenosis,and the flow velocity at the proximal segment of stenosis was in a relatively slow and uniform condition,with significantly increased flow velocity and WSS at the stenosed segment.Compared with 3D FSI model,0D-1D vascular coupling model was relatively unrefined and lack of distal flow lines when displaying blood flow velocity.For sampling point 2 at the stenosed segment of LAD,no significant consistency for pressure between 2 models was found(P=0.118),but strong consistency for the flow velocity and WSS(rs=0.730,0.807,both P<0.05).The consistencies of pressure,flow velocity and WSS between 2 models at the proximal and distal segment of stenosis,i.e.1,3-5 sampling points were week to moderate(rs=0.237-0.669,all P<0.05).Conclusion 0D-1D coupling model exhibited outstanding computational efficiency and might provide relatively reasonable results,while 3D FSI model showed higher accuracy for details and streamline when simulating LAD stenosis.

Objective To evaluate the effects of goal-directed fluid therapy on the tissue perfusion of elderly patients undergoing Laparoscopic Radical Cystectomy.Methods Thirty patients aged 60-82 years with ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ who were presenting for elective laparoscopic radical cystectomy were randomly divided into routine fluid replacement group (group C,n=15) and GDFT group (group G,n=15).Patients in group C received routine fluid replacement.Patients in group G were treated under goal-directed fluid infusion strategy with a target of SVV≤13%,CI≥2.5 L·min-1·m-2 and ScvO2≥73% under the monitoring of PiCCO.The indexes of hemodynamics and tissue perfusion were collected and recorded at 7 time points: before induction of anesthesia (T1),5 minutes after intubation (T2),5 minutes after pneumoperitoneum and change positions (T3),1 hour after pneumoperitoneum (T4),5 minutes after the abdomen was opened (T5),1 hour after the abdomen was opened (T6) and the end of surgery (T7).Results Compared with group C,group G received less fluid.MAP and SVV between two groups were no statistical significance.The CI in group G in time point T4,T6 and T7 was significantly higher than that in group C (P<0.05).The HR in group G in time point T5 and T6 was significantly higher than that in group C (P<0.05).The aLac in group G in time point T4 and T5 was significantly lower than that in group C (P<0.05).Pcv-aCO2,DO2I and O2ERe between the two groups were not statistically different.Postoperative rehabilitation indexes between the two groups were not statistically significant.Conclusion The GDFT guided under SVV,CI and ScvO2 can keep the effective circulatory volume and pressure to ensure the whole body perfusion,reduce aLac and improve microcirculation without affecting the balance of oxygen supply and demand and the postoperative complication.

To analyze and evaluate the knowledge of Chinese Guidelines of Diabetes Prevention and Treatment in Shanghai medical staff. 175 medical staff working in endocrinology or community health were enrolled and evaluated by a questionnaire of guidelines about the state of professional, training, and related knowledge. Only 16. 6% medical staffwere trained about the guidelines( 46. 67% from the general hospitals, 14. 75% from secod-level hospital and 7. 14% persons from the community hospitals, P<0. 01 ). The total correct answer rate of the guidelines was 37. 36%. The correct rate of community hospitals was lower than others( P<0. 05 ). The rate of doctors' was higher than nurses'( P<0. 05 ). There were difference between doctors and nurses with the key point of diabetes care knowledge in different level hospitals. The effective method of clinical training in diabetes care should be explored. We still have to work hard to promote the effect of diabetes control and prevention. Effective training about the guidelines should be enhanced. The cooperation between general hospitals and community health institutions in diabetes prevention and treatment should be enhanced.
6.3D-CE MRA diagnosis of nutcracker syndrome
Chinese Journal of Interventional Imaging and Therapy 2009;6(6):530-532
Objective To assess the diagnostic value of 3D-CE MRA for nutcracker syndrome (NCS).Methods The 3D-CE MRA appearances of 4 patients of NCS and control group ( 30 persons) were analyzed.Results The left kidney vein (LKV) crossed before abdominal aorta in 4 NCS patients and 30 controls- The average angle of the origin of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) from the abdominal aorta was (84.50±3.60)° in control group,and became small (<30°) in 4 NCS patients.The distance of the origin of the SMA to the beginning of descent was (13.40±5.10) mm,and the SMA and abdominal aorta in the axial plane crossing the LKV was (16.40±5.10) mm in controls,and all decreased in 4 NCS patients whose LKV was obviously compressed.The average ratio of expansion to stenosis caliber of the LKV was 4,5 in 4 NCS patients,whereas 1.4 in the controls.Conclusion 3D-CE MRA can display relation between abdominal aorta,SMA and LKV,thus exactly diagnose the nutcracker syndrome.
