ABSTRACT
Objective To summarize the factors and the corresponding treatments for patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) complicated by thrombocytopenia, and provide medical advises for clinical treatment. Methods Literatures and case reports were analyzed and summarized. Results Thrombocytopenia in patient with CHD could be mainly divided into two types, one group was induced by the antithrombotic therapies for CHD, and the other group was caused by some concurrent diseases or combined non-antithrombotic medications. There were different medical decisions and prognoses according to the causes in different groups. Conclusion The treatment strategies of CHD will be considered in the CHD patients with thrombocytopenia. Identifying thrombocytopenia by monitoring the platelet counts in early stage, finding out the causes quickly and providing proper treatments are the key for the prognosis of the patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the relationship of serum UA level with coronary heart disease (CHD) and cerebral stroke in elderly female essential hypertension (EH) patients. Methods Four hundred and seventy-two female EH patients admitted to our hospital from February 2014 to June 2018 were divided into normal UA group (n = 389) and hyperuricemia group (n = 83) according to their serum UA level. The clinical characteristics, blood pressure, incidence of CHD and cerebral stroke were compared between the two groups. The relationship of serum UA level with CHD and cerebral stroke was analyzed by logistic regression analysis. Results The age was significantly older, the course of hypertension was significantly longer, the SBP and BMI were significantly higher, the circumstances of lumber and buttock were significantly longer, the serum FPG,TB, UA levels and the incidence of grade 2 hypertension and grade 3 hypertension were significantly higher while the serum HDL-C level was significantly lower in hyperuricemia group than in normal UA group (P＜0.05, P＜0.01). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that serum UA level was positively related with CHD and cerebral stroke in elderly female EH patients after adjustment for risk factors such as age (OR = 1.003, 95％CI:1.000-1.007, P=0.045;OR = 1.006, 95％CI:1.000-1.012,P = 0.042). Conclusion Hyperuricemia is closely related with CHD and cerebral stroke in elederly EH patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the relationship between serum uric acid (UA) level and metabolic syndrome (MS) in elderly essential hypertensive (EH) patients.Methods Two hundred and one elderly EH patients were divided into hyperuricemia group (n=47) and normal UA group (n=154).Hyperuricemia was defined in males with their serum UA level ＞ 420 μmol/L and in females with their serum UA level ＞ 360 μmol/L.Relationship between serum UA level and MS in elderly EH patients was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis and logistic regression analysis respectively.Results The age was significantly older,the waist circumference was significantly longer,the BMI and serum SCr,FPG,TG level and the incidence of MS,central obesity,high blood glucose and high TG were significantly higher while the serum HDL-C level was significantly lower in hyperuricemia group than in normal UA group.Pearson correlation analysis showed that waist circumference,BMI,serum FPG and TG level were positively related with serum UA level while serum HDL-C level was negatively related with serum UA level (P＜0.05,P＜0.01).Logistic regression analysis showed that waist circumference and serum TG level were the independent risk factors for elevated serum UA level in elderly EH patients (OR=1.080,95％ CI:1.035-1.127,P=0.000;OR=1.472,95％CI:1.021-2.122,P=0.038).Conclusion Serum UA level is closely related with MS and its components while waist circumference and serum TG level are the independent risk factors for hyperuricemia in elderly EH patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To systematically evaluate the effects of albumin compared with crystalloids on fluid resuscitation for adults with severe sepsis and septic shock.Methods The six databases as follows:Cochrane Library,Pubmed,Embase,CNKI,VIP and Wanfang,were retrieved by computer,from their inception to November,2015.Randomized controlled trials(RCT) in the treatment of adult patients with severe sepsis and septic shock were included for quality assessment and Meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan5.3 software.Results A total of 4 RCTs involving 3 862 participants were included.No differences were found between albumin and crystalloids resuscitation with respect to 28-day mortality[RR=0.95,95%CI(0.86,1.05),P=0.33],90-day mortality[RR=0.95,95%CI(0.86,1.05),P=0.33],duration of stay in ICU,duration of hospital stay,duration of mechanical ventilation and renal replacement therapy.Conclusion In that meta-analysis,the effects of fluid resuscitation with albumin or crystalloids were not significantly different in adults with severe sepsis and septic shock.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of capecitabine or S-1 combined with oxaliplatin or cisplatin in the treat-ment of advanced gastric cancer. Methods:Six databases including Cochrane Library, Pubmed, Embase, CNKI, VIP and WanFang were retrieved. Randomized controlled trials ( RCT) in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer were involved for the quality assess-ment and Meta-analysis. Results:A total of 14 RCT involving 1 051 patients were included. There were no significant differences in the total effective rate, complete remission rate and partial remission rate between the two groups(P>0. 05). In the safety evaluation, the incidence of hand-foot syndrome was higher in capecitabine-based regimens than that in S-1-based regimens[RR=2. 59,95%CI (1. 61,4. 17),P0. 05). Con-clusion:Capecitabine combined with oxaliplatin or cisplatin has similar efficacy with S-1 combined with oxaliplatin or cisplatin in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer, and the incidence of hand-foot syndrome is higher in capecitabine-based regimens and the inci-dence of stomatitis is higher in S-1-based regimens.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To study the relative bioavailability,pharmacokinetics and bioequivalence of domestic nisoldipine tablets in healthy volunteers.METHODS:A single oral dose of 10 mg test and reference nisoldipine tablets were given to 24 male healthy volunteers in an open randomized 2?2 latin square design.The plasma concentrations of nisoldipine at different time points were determined by LC-MS and the pharmacokinetic parameters of the two kinds of tablets were computed and their bioequiavailability was evaluated.RESULTS:The main pharmacokinetic parameters of the test vs.reference formulations of nisoldipine in 24 healthy volunteers were as follows:Cmax(2.94?2.78)ng?mL-1 vs.(3.22?2.16)ng?mL-1,tmax(1.70?1.00)h vs.(1.40?1.00)h,t1/2(6.81?4.11)h vs.(5.55?2.35)h,AUC0～24(10.60?7.70)ng?h?mL-1 vs.(9.90?6.76)ng?h?mL-1,AUC0～∞(11.30?7.90)ng?h?mL-1 vs.(10.20?7.00)ng?h?mL-1.The relative bioavailability of domestic nisoldipine tablets was(110.3?30.8)%.CONCLUSION:The reference preparation and the test preparation of nisoldipine tablets were proved to be bioequivalent.
