Objective:To investigate the predictive value of stress hyperglycemia for the functional outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS).Methods:Patients with AIS admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Lianyungang, Xuzhou Medical University from September 1, 2019 to December 31, 2020 were enrolled prospectively. The glucose to glycated hemoglobin ratio (GAR) was used to express stress hyperglycemia. The functional outcome was evaluated by the modified Rankin Scale at 3 month after discharge, 0-2 was defined as a good outcome and >2 as a poor outcome. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent related factors of functional outcome. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of GAR for poor functional outcome. Results:A total of 1 286 patients with AIS were included. Their median age was 67 years old, and 762 were males (59.3%). The median baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score was 2. The median fasting blood glucose level was 5.48 mmol/L, the median glycosylated hemoglobin was 6.00%, and the median GAR was 0.92. Eight hundred and twelve patients (63.1%) had good outcomes and 474 (36.9%) had poor outcomes. The GAR in the good outcome group was significantly lower than that in the poor outcome group (0.86 vs. 1.03; P<0.001). All patients were divided into 4 groups (GAR1, GAR2, GAR3, and GAR4) according to the GAR quartile from low to high. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for relevant confounding factors, GAR4 (taking the GAR1 as a reference, odds ratio [ OR] 8.896, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 5.775-13.702; P<0.001), age ( OR 1.041, 95% CI 1.027-1.055; P<0.001) and baseline NIHSS score classification ( OR 25.898, 95% CI 14.221-47.163; P<0.001) were closely associated with the poor outcomes at 3 months. Further subgroup analysis showed that the higher level of GAR was significantly and independently correlated with the poor functional outcome, regardless of whether the patients had diabetes or not. The ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve of GAR predicting poor outcome at 3 months was 0.705 (95% CI 0.675-0.735; P<0.001), and the predictive value was significantly higher than that of glycosylated hemoglobin and fasting blood glucose. When the cut-off value of GAR was 0.97, the Yoden index was the largest, which was 0.370. The sensitivity and specificity of its predicting the poor outcome at 3 months were 61.6% and 75.4%. Conclusion:Whether or not diabetes is present, GAR is an independent predictor of the poor outcomes in patients with AIS.

Objective To discuss the application of day surgery management mode in patients with cardiovascular interventional treatment, evaluate the safety of day surgery and its effects on the average in-hospital days and expenses. Methods A total of 1 578 patients who received cardiovascular interventional therapy in the Department of Cardiology in Ningbo First Hospital from January 2015 to December 2016 were included in the study. They were randomly divided into the observation group and the control group, 789 cases respectively. Patients in the control group received normal in-hospital operation mode, while patients in the observation group used day surgery mode. The safety, complications, average in-hospital days and expenses were compared between two groups. Results The average in-hospital days and expenses were 1 d and 3 083 Yuan in the observation group; in the control group, average in-hospital days and expenses were (5.34±0.73) d and (3 713.70±21.06) Yuan, which were significantly higher than those in the observation group (P<0.05). There were 5 cases of bleeding in the puncture site of the radial artery, 9 cases of forearm hematoma, and 1 case of Iodine allergic reaction with a complication incidence of 1.9% in the control group. In the observation group, there were 3 cases of bleeding in the puncture site of the radial artery, 6 cases of forearm hematoma, and 2 cases of Iodine allergic reaction with a complication incidence of 1.4%. No significant difference in the complications of patients was observed between two groups (P>0.05). Conclusions The day surgery mode of patients with cardiovascular interventional treatment, which can ensure the therapeutic effect and the safety of patients, is feasible and can reduce the average in-hospital days and expenses.

Objective To evaluate the effects on pregnancy outcome of freezing time from oocyte retrieval and thawing method for metaphase Ⅱ human oocytes vitrification. Methods From Mar 2007 to Mar 2009, the clinical outcome of 30 infertile women undergoing vitrified-thawing oocytes of in vitro fertilizationembryo transfer(IVF-ET) in the Reproductive Medical Center of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University was studied retrospectively, including 21 women with double fallopian tube obstruction and 9 women's husband azoospermia. All infertile women were divided into three groups, including 5 cases in group A (freezing between 4 and 5 hours from oocyte retrieval and conventional thawing method), 9 cases in group B (freezing within 2 hours from retrieval and conventional thawing method) and 16 cases in group C (freezing within 2 hours from retrieval and improved thawing method). The vitrified oocytes were preserved for 2 months to I year and thawed for Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and embryo transfer. The outcome of IVF and pregnancy were recorded. Results (1) The rates of oocyte survival was (65±33) % in group B and (72±23)% in group C and the rate of transfer cycle was 9/9 in group B and 16/16 in group C, which were all significantly higher than (16±17) % of oocyte survival and 1/5 of transfer cycle in group A (P = 0. 001,0. 021). However, the rate of oocyte survival and transfer cycle between group B and group C did not reach statistical difference (P > 0. 05). The rate of implantation and clinical pregnancy of (33±38) % and 9/16 in group C were significantly higher (4±11)% and 1/9 in group B (P =0. 033,0. 040).(2)The mean age of women in group C were (28.6±2.1) in oneself oocyte, (28.0±4.6) in donor oocyte and (28.1±3.4) in donor sperm. The rate of oocyte survival was (73±25) %, (88±10) % and (66±25) %. The rate of fertilization rate was (84. 6±0. 9) %, (79. 3±2. 0) % and (82. 8±15.0) %. The rate of implantation was (20. 0±44. 7) %, (33. 0±0. 1) % , (41.6±41.7) %. The rate of clinical pregnancy was 1/5 in oneself cycles,3/3 in donor oocyte cycles, 5/8 banked donor sperm cycles in group C. All above clinical parameters were not statistically different (P >0. 05). (3) In group A, one women underwent IVFET and no clinical pregnancy was observed. One women pregnancy was terminated at two months in group B.The clinical pregnancies rate of group C was 9/16, late abortion occurred in 1 woman, the other 8 women underwent term pregnancy, including 5 male infants and 4 female infants. All of infants showed normal Karyotype. Live-birth rates per warmed oocyte was 5.9% (8/135). The mean gestational weeks and birth weight of the infants were (39. 4±0. 9) weeks and (3574±569) g, respectively. Conclusions Embryo quality and clinical outcome of thawing cycles could be significantly improved when oocyte vitrification was performed within 2 hours from oocyte retrieval and improved thawing method.
