ABSTRACT
Objective@#To explore prognostic factors of acute paraquat poisoning (APP) , analyze the correlation between base excess (BE) and plasma concentration of paraquat (C-PQ) and discuss BE level in evalua-tion of prognosis of acute paraquat poisoning patients.@*Methods@#We retrospectively selected 84 APP patients who admitted to Emergency Intensive Care Unit (EICU) of our hospital from 2009.9.1 to 2015.8.31.Clinical data from 84 APP patients were analyzed. BE、C-PQ、time of gastric lavagesince ingestion、time of hemoperfusion since ingestion、severity index of paraquat poisoning (SIPP) 、white blood cell (WBC) 、percentage of neutrophils (N%) 、hemoglobin (HB) 、creatinine (Cr) 、alanine aminotransferase (ALT) 、aspartate aminotransferase (AST) 、partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) 、partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO2) and other laboratory parameters were measured. A total of 41 patients in non-survivors died during the 30 days after admission and 43 patients in survivors survived during the 30 days. The factors of prognosis in paraquat poisoining and the role of BE in evalu-ating prognosis was analyzed, as well as the correlation between BE and C-PQ.@*Results@#1.Logistic regression analyses showed BE、C-PQ、ALT、AST、Cr was of prognostic significance[odds ratio (OR) of BE: 0.511, 95%CI 0.267, 0.978; C-PQ:-=0.999, 95%CI 0.999, 1.000; both P<0.05] ; 2.The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve) of BE、C-PQ and prognosis were 0.775、0.927 respectively, BE≤-1.7 mmol/L was the best cut-off value, the sensitivity、specificity for predicting were 82.9%、62.8%, the evaluation value was lower to C-PQ>3 273.935 ng/ml (AUC 0.927, 78.0%、95.3%) ; 3.BE negative correlated with C-PQ[-1.100 (-4.100, -0.200) , -5.900(-8.650, -2.500) , both P<0.05]. (r=-0.4, P<0.01).@*Conclusion@#These results suggest that BE may be useful for the prediction of prognosis in PQ poisoning and BE negative correlated with C-PQ.
ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effect of hemoperfusion on paraquat-Induced kidney inflammation injury of rabbit and the mechanism of it.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>60 male rabbits were randomly divided into 4 groups, the normal control group (n=6, the rabbits were given NS by gavage) , blank control group (n=18, he rabbits were given 2 hours hemoperfusion once within 1 hour after given NS by gavage), paraquat poisoning group (n=18, the rabbits were given 50 mg/kg 20% paraquat solution by gavage) , hemoperfusion treatment group (n=18, the rabbits were given 2 hours hemoperfusion once within 1 hour after 20% paraquat solution espoused). The last 3 groups were divided into 3 observation time groups (1, 3, 7 day), contained 6 rabbits each group. On days 1, 3, 7 all groups rabbits were anesthetized and sacrificed, and their kidney tissues collected. The levels of NF-κB mRNA by RT-PCR, and the expression of NF-κB protein was measured by Western blotting,The expression levels of TNF-α, IL-6, iNOS measured by chemical colorimetric method to to observe inflammatory injury.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Compared with the normal control group rabbits, there were no changes in the TNF-α, IL-6, iNOS, NF-κB mRNA and protein of blank control group (P>0.05), while the expression of TNF-α, IL-6, NF-κB mRNA and protein in the kidney tissue of PQ group and were significantly increased (P<0.05). The pathological results of kidney tissues were no abnormalities onnormal control group and blank control group.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>HP significantly increase resistance to PQ-induced inflammation injury in the rabbit kidney and exert a protective effect on PQ-induced kidney injury.</p>

Objective To study the effects of DMPS on IL-1? during experimental myocardial ischemia-reperfusion(I/R)injury.Methods 30 New Zealand rabbits were randomly assigned to 3 groups:I/R group,DMPS protection group and Control group,10 in each group.The blood samples was obtained through vien at different time(5 min before ischemia,the end of the ischemia period and 0.5h,1h,2h,4h,6h after reperfusion)in each group.The serum concentrations of IL-1? were detected with radioimmunology method.Cardiac tissues samples were taken for determination of IL-1?.The ultrastructure changes of the Cardiac tissues were observed.Results The levels of IL-1? of serum and cardiac tissues increased after ischemia and reperfusion,and were significant different comparing with that before ischemia(P
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the change and significance of electrocardiogram and myocardial damage index in patients with acute organophosphorus pesticide (AOPP).Methods 71 hospitalized patients in EICU with AOPP from January 2000 to June 2006 were recorded.The patients were divided into 3 groups: mild poisoning group (n=18),moderate poisoning group(n=22) and severe poisoning group (n=31).Electrocardiogram(ECG), serum creatine kinase(CK), serum creatine kinase isoenzyrne MB(CK-MB),lactate dehydrogenase(LDH) and TnI were detected,the relation between the above-mentioned indexes and the toxical degree were analyzed.Results Abnormal ECG had a rasied tendency along with increase of the poisoning degree.The incidence of Ⅱ~Ⅲ atrioventricular block, atrial premature beats, ventricular premature contraction, ventricular tachycardia and ventricular fibrillation in severe poisoning group significantly increased compared with that in mild poisoning group and moderate poisoning group(P
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effects of DMPS on ET-1 during experimental myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury.Methods 20 New Zealand rabbits were randomly assigned to 2 groups: I/R group and DMPS protection group with 10 in each group. The blood sample was obtained through vien at different time (5 min before ischemia, the end of the ischemia period and 0.5h, 1h, 2h, 4h, 6h after reperfusion ) in each group.The serum concentrations of ET-1 were detected with radioimmunology method. Results The levels of ET-1 of serum and cardiac tissues increased after ischemia and reperfusion, and were significant different compared with that before ischemia(P0.05).Conclusions The changes of ET-1 were significant when myocardial I/R. DMPS may effectively effect the levels of ET-1 after myocardial ischemia and during I/R injury,and have protecfion of myocardium from ischemia and reperfusion injury.
ABSTRACT
Objective Discussing the clinical features, early diagnosis and therapeutic methods of aortic dissection (AD). Methods We analyzed and concluded the clinical datum of 33 AD patients in our hospital. Results The rate of male to female was 5.6 to 1 among all patients, average age 60, hypertension accounted for 81.8 percent. There were 26 patients (78.8 percent) suffered an acute pain, of who 22 patients got a pain in anterior chest.There were 22 of 26 patients diagnosed AD through echocardiography, 20 and 11 patients confirmed AD by MRI or CT respectively among all 33 patients. 13 patients had abnormal ECG, 10 ST-T segment changed, 12 left ventricular hypertrophy or hyper-voltage. Hypertension patients were treated through a infusion of nitroglycerin or nitroprusside by intervenous drop or by vein pump firstly to decend systolic blood pressure to the level of 100~120 mmHg and heart rate to 60~70 bpm,combining with the use of beta blocker, calcium antagonist and rennin- angiotensin inhibitor. 27 patients’ pain alleviated gradually even disappeared after controling their blood pressure, whose state of illness became to stable. 2 persons did the operation of aortic replacement in emergency. 6 persons died for aortic dissection broken in one week or one month. Conclusions The clinical manifestations of AD are complex, and the rate of false or leak diagnosis is high. Radiology studies including echocardiography, MRI or CT may be very important to enhance the ability of diagnosing AD early and to guide the treatment. Taking medical treatment is primary in emergency. Operating the replacement of aorta is an effective measure to treat AD.
