Objective:To evaluate the predictive value of sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) for 28-day mortality in patients with post-cardiac arrest syndrome (PCAS).Methods:Retrospective analysis of 125 patients with PCAS who were treated in Emergency Intensive Care Unit (EICU) of Wenzhou People's Hospital from July 2016 to July 2021. Clinical data were collected, including age, gender, underlying diseases, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ), SOFA score on admission to EICU and 28-day mortality. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression model was constructed to analyze the influencing factors of PCAS patients, which was used to examine the independent correlation between SOFA score and 28-day mortality. Receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was used to determine the best predictive value of SOFA score and 28-day mortality in PCAS patients.Results:Among the 125 PCAS patients, there were 91 males and 34 females with an average age of (58.7±15.1) years old, and 97 died and 28 survived within 28 days. The overall SOFA score ranged from 7 to 15 points, with an average of 10.9 (10.0, 12.0) points. The SOFA score of non-survival group was significantly higher than that of the survival group [points: 11.0 (10.0, 12.0) vs. 9.5 (9.0, 10.0), P < 0.05]. This difference between SOFA score mainly caused by the neurological and cardiovascular systems. After excluding neurological factors, the SOFA score of the non-survival group was still significantly higher than that of the survival group [points: 8.0 (6.0, 8.0) vs. 6.5 (6.0, 7.0), P < 0.05]. SOFA score was found to be an independent risk factor for 28-day mortality in PCAS patients by multifactorial Logistic regression analysis [odds ratio ( OR) = 1.97, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) was 1.24-3.04]. The correlation between neurological score and mortality was the highest in subgroups ( OR = 3.47, 95% CI was 1.04-11.52). The area under the ROC curve (AUC) predicted by SOFA score was 0.81 (95% CI was 0.73-0.89). When SOFA score cut-off value was 10.5 points (10 or 11 points), the sensitivity and specificity of SOFA score for predicting 28-day mortality in patients with PCAS were 67.0% and 82.1%, respectively. Conclusions:The SOFA score is quite accurate in predicting 28-day mortality in patients with PCAS.

Objective To explore the association of anti-mullerian hormone(AMH)in seminal plasma and serum with sperm counts and energy for male.Methods For 215 cases of healthy male selected from our reproductive clinic,with women′s reason for infertility,seminal plasma and serum AMH were detected,as semen parameters(sperm density,living rate,vitality and malformation rate),6 items of serum sex hormone.In seminal plasma and serum AMH respectively as the dependent variable,using multiple line-ar regression model to explore its quantitative relation with semen parameters and sex hormone levels.Results 215 cases were en-rolled,aged 34.28±5.70 years,while the median of the seminal plasma AMH was 0.47,quartile 0.05-3.09 pmol/ejaculation.The median of the serum AMH was 53.07,quartile 32.32 -72.20 pmol/L.Through multiple linear regression analysis,after adjusted by age and BMI,the seminal plasma of AMH and total number of sperm,sperm concentration,dynamic motility,total sperm activi-ty,serum inhibin B were positively correlated(P <0.05);The correlation between sperm morphology and other serum sex hormone had no statistical significance(P >0.05);Serum AMH negatively correlated with serum FSH,with serum inhibin B positively(P <0.05);Seminal plasma in various parameters and other related serum sex hormone had no statistical significance(P >0.05).Conclu-sion The seminal plasma of AMH were positively correlated with sperm concentration,sperm counts,sperm vitality,with the asso-ciation for serum AMH not yet found.

Objective To investigate the security and efficacy of one stage and bilateral resection of thymic tissue and clearance of mediastinal fat by uniportal-video-assisted thoracic surgery(VATS) to cure patients with myasthenia gravis(MG).Methods A number of 131 patients with MG who underwent resection of thymic tissue and clearance of mediastinal fat by VATS in one single center from February 2009 to December 2013 were selected in this retrospective study.76 patients underwent unilateral resection of thymic tissue and clearance of mediastinal fat by three portal VATS from February 2009 to March 2012 and 55 patients underwent one stage and bilateral resection of thymic tissue and clearance of mediastinal fat by small uniportal-VATS from April 2012 to December 2013.The time for operation,the bleeding volume during operation,the volume of postoperative drainage and drainage time,the improvement of symptoms,the postoperative pain,hospital stays and the occurrence of myasthenia gravis crisis were compared between the two groups.Results The general condition and pathological type did not have significant statistical differences between the two groups.The operating time in the uniportal-VATS group was significantly longer than that in three portal VATS group,but the pain was lighter,and the hospital stay was shorter.There were no significant differences between groups in terms of blood loss,postoperative drainage time,and volume of drainage.The follow-up was from 32 to 90 months,and 118 (90.08％)patients completed the follow up.94.5 ％ of the patients in uniportalVATS group acquired complete stable remission(CSR),while it was 84.2％ in three portal VATS group(P ＜ 0.05),and the uniportal-VATS group had lower rate of myasthenic crisis (P ＜0.05).Conclusion One stage and bilateral resection of thymic tissue and clearance of mediastinal fat by small uniportal-VATS is safe and effective with shorter hospital stay and less pain,and it can get higher CSR and less myasthenic crisis,its efficacy is superior to traditional three portal VATS.

Objective To explore the correlation between pregnancy-related anxiety and serum 25 (OH)D level during early pregnancy. Methods A radioimmunoassay was used to determine the serum 25 (OH)D levels of 2 122 early pregnant women in Maanshan Maternal and Child Health Care Hospital, from June 2015 to 2016. Data were collected using a questionnaire. Results The mean serum 25(OH)D level was(29.71±32.27)nmol/L.About 15.2% of the subjects had adequate,22.6% had insufficient,45.1% had deficient,and 17.1% had severely deficient serum 25(OH)D levels.The type of housing and testing seasons were significantly associated with the serum 25(OH)D level.Single factor logistic regression analysis results show that pregnancy-related anxiety incidence in the group deficient in 25(OH)D was higher than that in the adequate group, which has a statistically significant difference (P<0.05). After adjusting for the maternal age,BMI,and educational level,multivariate logistic regression analysis results showed that the difference was statistically significant. Conclusion The serum 25(OH)D level in early pregnant women was inadequate. Furthermore, lack of serum 25(OH)D in early pregnancy and pregnancy-related anxiety were negatively correlated.

Objective The study was designed to observe influence of simvastatin on lung tissue angiogenesis and the gene expression of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) and platelet factor 4(PF4) of rats with bleomycin (BLM)-induced pulmonary fibrosis. Methods Ninety-six healthy male SD rats were divided into four groups by random number table, including normal control group (A), bleomycin group (B), prednisone acetate treatment group (C) and simvastatin treatment group (D). Lung tissue of rats in each group was detected as specimens. HYP was detected by digestion method. Angiogenesis, VEGF and PF4 protein expression were determined by immunohistochemical method (SP). Expression of VEGF and PF4 mRNA were respectively detected by RT-PCR assay. Results (1)HYP content of group C, D was lower than the group B, which was statistical significance (P <0.01). (2)MVD and the expression of VEGF in group B, C and D was higher than that in group A. PF4 expression of group B, C and D were lower than that of group A (P < 0.01). MVD and the expression of VEGF of group D were lower than those of group B, the expression of PF4 of group D was higher than that in group B (P < 0.05). Conclusion Mechanism of simvastatin on pulmonary fibrosis may be related to regulate the expression of VEGF and PF4 in lung tissue, inhibit pathological angiogenesis.

Objective To establish an external quality assessment ( EQA) system of genitourinary tract secretions routine testing in Guizhou Province and improve the overall testing level.Methods From 2009 to 2011, more than 50 clinical laboratories in different grade hospitals from Guizhou Province were enrolled as participating units every year.EQA was carried out twice a year.Each time, five slides of high quality Wright′s or Gram stain smear of the genitourinary tract secretions or photographs obtained from these smears were selected to send to the participating laboratories for testing, and the feedback results from each laboratory were analyzed.The qualification was judged by the coincidence rate equal to or more than 80%. The average coincidence rates of each time and each year were statistically analyzed by Chi-squared test. Results From 2009 to 2011, the number of EQA participating units increased from 55 to 96, with an average return rate of >80%.Coincidence rates <80%of the 6 EQA results in the 3 years were as follow:four times for coccobacteria (73.7%,77.8%,61.1%,77.1%), twice for bacillus (75.6%,79.3%) and coccobacillus (64.3%,52.1%), once for infusorian (79.7%), epithelial cells (76.1%), neutropenia (75.7%) and cleanliness (71.3%).There were six batches of 30 quality assessment controls (accounting for 20.0%) in the six EQAs had the coincidence rate of <80%.Eleven items of 30 quality assessment controls with 1 to 15 batches were unqualified ( average coincidence rate of<80%) respectively.The item with the highest total average coincidence rate was suspected gonococcus (94.2%), and two items with the lowest total average coincidence rates were coccus and coccobacillus ( 77.0%, 75.2%, respectively ) . Conclusions This EQA program carried out within a certain range of clinical laboratories achieved good results:participating units increased significantly;the total score of all the items showed an obviously upward trend;the quality awareness of clinical lab technicians has enhanced to a certain extent.In this study, EQA system of genitourinary tract secretion routine testing were preliminarily established in Guizhou province, which provided a reference model of internal quality control ( IQC ) and EQA for clinical laboratories and higher authorities, and will be bound to have a positive impact on improvement of the overall level of genitourinary tract secretion routine testing.
