OBJECTIVE: To construct a risk prediction model for elderly severe patients with pneumonia infection, and analyze the prevention effect of 1M3S nursing plan under early warning mode. METHODS: Firstly, 180 elderly severe patients admitted to the department of intensive care unit (ICU) of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xingtai Medical College from September 2020 to September 2021 were enrolled. Their clinical data were collected and retrospectively analyzed, and they were divided into infected group and non-infected group according to whether they developed severe pneumonia. The risk factors affecting severe pneumonia in elderly severe patients were screened by univariate and multifactorial analysis methods, and the risk prediction model was constructed. The predictive efficiency of the model was analyzed by receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve). Then the risk prediction model was applied to prospectively include 60 high-risk elderly patients with severe pneumonia admitted from December 2021 to August 2022. The patients were randomly divided into study group and control group by envelope method, with 30 cases in each group. Both groups were given routine nursing. On this basis, the study group adopted 1M3S nursing scheme [standardized nursing management (1M), improving nursing skills (S1), optimizing nursing service (S2), ensuring nursing safety (S3)] in the early warning mode for intervention. Acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHE II) and Murray lung injury score were compared between the two groups before intervention and 7 days after intervention. RESULTS: Among 180 elderly severe patients, 34 cases were infected with pneumonia (18.89%). The proportion of patients with Glasgow coma scale (GCS) ≤ 8, duration of mechanical ventilation > 7 days, use of antibiotics, poor oral hygiene, hospital stay > 15 days and albumin ≤ 30 g/L in the infected group were significantly higher than those in the non-infected group. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that duration of mechanical ventilation > 7 days, use of antibiotics, GCS score≤ 8, hospital stay > 15 days, albumin ≤ 30 g/L and poor oral hygiene were all independent risk factors for severe pneumonia in elderly severe patients. The odds ratio (OR) values were 3.180, 3.394, 1.108, 1.881, 1.517 and 2.512 (all P < 0.05). ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of the prediction model to predict severe pneumonia in elderly severe patients was 0.838, 95% confidence interval was 0.748-0.927, sensitivity and specificity were 81.25% and 72.57%, respectively, and the Youden index was 0.538. (2) There was no significantly difference in general data between the study group and the control group, which was comparable. After intervention, the APACHE II score and Murray lung injury score of the two groups were significantly decreased, and the APACHE II score and Murray lung injury score of the study group were significantly lower than those of the control group (APACHE II score: 3.15±1.02 vs. 3.81±0.25, Murray lung injury score: 5.01±1.12 vs. 6.55±0.21, both P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS There are many risk factors affecting the development of severe pneumonia in elderly severe patients. The risk prediction model based on duration of mechanical ventilation > 7 days, hospital stay > 15 days, GCS score≤ 8, albumin ≤ 30 g/L, poor oral hygiene and history of combined antibacterial use has high predictive efficacy. The intervention of 1M3S nursing scheme in the early warning mode can effectively reduce the risk of severe pneumonia in elderly severe patients, and significantly improve the pathophysiological status.

Objective : To investigate the effect of hypoxic preconditioning (HPC) on mitochondrial energy metabolism in mouse hippocampal HT22 cells and its possible mechanism. Methods : In this paper, mouse hippocampal nerve cells HT22 were divided into control group, hypoxia group, HPC group, and the levels of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in each group were measured for observing the effect of HPC on cell mitochondrial metabolism. Western blot was used to detect the expression of target of rapamycin ( mTOR), phosphorylated mTOR protein and autophagy substrate P62 protein; cellular immunofluorescence was used to detect phosphorylated mTOR, and LysoTrackerTM probe was used to detect lysosomes. Results : Compared with the control group, the ATP level was significantly decreased and the ROS level was increased in the hypoxia group. Exposed to HPC, the ATP level was increased and the ROS level was decreased. Compared with the control group, the expression of phosphorylated mTOR was down⁃regulated and the expression of autophagy substrate P62 was down⁃regulated in the HPC group. Conclusion HPC may affect the energy metabolism of HT22 cells through the mTOR/autophagy signaling pathway, thereby exerting a protective effect on the HT22 cells.

Objective:To investigate the prognostic significance of D-dimer level in patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL).Methods:The clinical data of 70 newly diagnosed DLBCL patients who were admitted to Tianjin People's Hospital from January 2015 to June 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The optimal cut-off value of D-dimer for survival was determined according to the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and the patients were grouped. The differences of coagulation related indexes and clinicopathological features between patients with different D-dimer levels were compared. Kaplan-Meier method was used for univariate analysis of overall survival (OS), and Cox regression model was used for multivariate analysis of OS.Results:According to ROC curve, the best cut-off value of D-dimer for survival was 0.75 mg/L. The proportion of patients with different clinical staging, international prognostic index score, lactate dehydrogenase level had statistically significant differences between the D-dimer ≥0.75 mg/L group (36 cases) and <0.75 mg/L group (34 cases) (all P < 0.05). The prothrombin time of D-dimer ≥ 0.75 mg/L group and < 0.75 mg/L group were (13.5±0.9) s and (13.0±0.8) s, respectively, and the activated partial thromboplastin time were (37±5) s and (34±6) s, respectively,and the differences were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). Univariate analysis showed that the 5-year OS rates of DLBCL patients with Ann Arbor stage Ⅲ-Ⅳ, international prognostic index score > 2, lactate dehydrogenase level > 240 U/L, B symptoms, D-dimer level ≥0.75 mg/L were decreased (all P < 0.05). Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that D-dimer ≥0.75 mg/L was an independent risk factor for OS of DLBCL patients ( HR=0.368, 95% CI 0.144-0.944, P= 0.038). Conclusion:The level of D-dimer can be used as a clinical indicator to judge the prognosis of DLBCL patients, and the prognosis of patients with high D-dimer level is poor.

Objective To explore the protective effect and mechanism of butylphthalide on cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury in mice.Methods The cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury model was established by middle cerebral ischemia occlusion (MCAO).Thirty mice were divided into sham group,ischemia reperfusion group(I/R group) and butylphthalide group (NBP group) with 10 in each group.Neurological defect score and brain infarction volume were detected by TTC to evaluate the treatment effects of butylphthalide.Western blot was used to detect expression of RIP,RIP3 and AIF.Immunocoprecipitation (IP) was used to detect the interaction of AIF and RIP3.Immunofluorescence(IF) was used to detect the nuclear translocation and co-localization of AIF and RIP3.Results Compared with the I/R group,NBP treatment reduced the neurological defect score (I/R:(2.60 ± 0.22),NBP:(1.90 ± 0.23),t =2.18,P＜ 0.05) and brain infarction volume(I/R:(38.32±2.22) ％,NBP:(25.23±2.70) ％,t=3.74,P＜0.01).I/R elevated the expression of RIP1 and RIP3 whereas NBP significantly inhibited the expression of these two proteins (RIP1 (I/R:0.99±0.24,NBP:0.47±0.10,t=2.71,P＜0.05);RIP3 (I/R:0.52±0.17,NBP:0.15±0.04,t=2.87,P＜0.05)).I/R and NBP had no significant effects on the expression of AIF,but the IP results showed that I/R increased the interaction between AIF and RIP3 compared with the sham group.NBP alleviated the interaction between AIF and RIP3.IF results showed that the colocalization and nuclear expression of AIF and RIP3 increased after I/R whereas NBP treatment decreased the effect induced by I/R.Conclusion Butylphthalide alleviated cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury in mice through inhibiting the cell necroptosis.The mechanisms may correlate with decreasing the expression of RIP1 and RIP3 and alleviating the interaction and nuclear translocation of AIF and RIP3.
