This case involves a 53-year-old female patient who underwent mechanical mitral valve replacement and has been on long-term warfarin anticoagulant therapy,subsequently developed diffuse ecchymoses of the limbs and progressive both lower extremities swelling after she self-adjusted her warfarin dosage from 3 mg to 6 mg daily over 5 consecutive days.After admission,the patient's international normalized ratio was 12.71,and creatine kinase level was 1,989.47 U·L-1,which led to the diagnosis of coagulopathy and rhabdomyolysis due to warfarin overdose.Following discontinuation of warfarin and initiation of fluid resuscitation therapy,the patient's creatine kinase levels returned to normal after 6 d.Thiscase underscores the necessity of refining long-term warfarin management strategies and enhancing patient education to improve medication adherence and ensure both the efficacy and safety of anticoagulation therapy.

Objective To observe the effect of compound iodine alcohol skin disinfectant heated to 40℃using among operation patients .Methods 100 operation patients were randomly divided into two groups:the test group (n=50 cases, accepting heated Anerdian) and the control group (n=50 cases, accepting no heated Anerdian ) .Effectiveness of the iodine content , alcohol content , of bacterial culture and the rate of chill were compared between the two groups .Results In the test group accepting heated Anerdian , the effectiveness of the iodine content was (0.102 ±0.0015)%(g/ml), the effectiveness of the alcohol content was (68.1 ± 1.54)%(g/ml).The differences were significant (t =-12.88, -4.594, respectively;P <0.05).No bacterial culture of the skin sample had been found between the two groups .10min after the sterilization, 4.0%patients in the test group and 24.0%patients in the control group had chill .There was a significant difference between groups (χ2 =8.306,P<0.01).Conclusions Compound iodine alcohol skin disinfectant heated to 40℃can conveniently and effectively increase the degree of comfort of the operation patients .

Objective To differentiate proteinuria due to non-diabetic renal diseases(NDRD)from that of diabetic nephropathy(DN)in type 2 diabetic patients,and to evaluate the prevalence of NDRD.Methods A retrospective analysis was performed on diabetic patients who had undergone renal biopsy between Jan 1,2003 and Dec 3 1,2006.The data including history of diabetes,cardiac color ultrasound,color Doppler ultrasound of the carotid artery,retinal changes,examination of ocular fundus,giomerular filtration rate,hepatic and renal function,lipid profile,blood glucose,HbA1c,and urine protein were collected.Results Among 46 patients,22 cases (47.8%)were distinctly diagnosed as diabetic nephropathy(DN),while the other 24(52.2%)as NDRD.Focal segmental glomeruloselerosis Was the most common lesion found in patients with NDRD.In DN group,the fasting blood glucose was higher than that of NDRD group,as well as ejection fraction,carotid plaque,and intimamedia thickness(IMT)showed significant differences between 2 groups.Patients with NDRD were less frequently associated with diabetic retinopathy.Diabetic retinopathy showed hiigh sensitivity(72.7%)and specificity (91.7%)in diagnosing DN.Conclusions Blood glucose,ejection fraction,carotid plaques and IMT,and retinopathy may be helpful in differential diagnosis of diabetic patients with overt proteinuria.Renal biopsy is an important step lo establish the diagnosis.
