ABSTRACT
Objective:To detect serum immunoglobulin and interleukin-18 (IL-18) levels in patients with viral hepatitis B and investigate the clinical significance of combined detection of serum immunoglobulin and IL-18 levels.Methods:A total of 102 patients with viral hepatitis B who received treatment in Jinan 2 nd People's Hospital from September 2019 to September 2020 were included in the observation group. An additional 99 patients who concurrently underwent physical examination were included in the control group. Serum immunoglobulin and IL-18 levels were detected in each group and they were compared between the two groups. Changes in serum immunoglobulin and IL-18 levels detected after treatment relative to before treatment were analyzed in the observation group. Results:Serum levels of immunoglobulin A, immunoglobulin G, immunoglobulin M, and IL-18 in the observation group were (2.68 ± 0.74) g/L, (15.24 ± 4.17) g/L, (2.59 ± 1.03) g/L, (2.53 ± 0.21) ng/mL, respectively, which were significantly higher than those in the control group [(1.76 ± 0.63) g/L, (11.58 ± 3.46) g/L, (1.38 ± 0.49) g/L, (1.68 ± 0.34) g/L, respectively, t = 9.45, 6.74, 10.54, 21.36, all P < 0.01). In the observation group, serum levels of immunoglobulin A, immunoglobulin G, immunoglobulin M, and IL-18 were (2.03 ± 0.51) g/L, (13.12 ± 3.25) g/L, (1.93 ± 0.47) g/L, (1.74 ± 0.15) μg/L after treatment, which were significantly lower than those before the treatment [(2.68 ± 0.74) g/L, (15.24 ± 4.17) g/L, (2.59 ± 1.03) g/L, (2.53 ± 0.21) μg/L , t = 7.26, 4.02, 10.54, 5.87, all P < 0.01). Conclusion:Serum immunoglobulin and IL-18 levels in combination can reflect the condition of viral hepatitis B patients and provide scientific reference for clinical treatment. The research results are scientific and innovative and are worthy of promotion.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To compare the positive rate of microbiological examination in different clinical specimens, and to provide reliable basis for improving the quality of microbiological examination and management of nosocomial infection.@*Methods@#A total of 2 028 bacterial culture specimens were collected from the hospitalized patients in the Second People's Hospital of Jinanfrom March 2016 to February 2018.The samples were examined by Micro Scan autoSCAN4 automatic bacteriological identification analyzer.Strictly according to the specification of the standard operation, the positive rates of microbial testingof all kinds of clinical specimens were statistically analyzed.@*Results@#The positive rate of microbiological examination in 2 028 clinical specimens was 44.33%.The positive rate of microbiological examination in sputum was the highest(58.96%), followed by ophthalmic secretion(40.64%), eye contents(37.96%), urine(34.55%), blood(21.11%).@*Conclusion@#The positive rate of microbiological examination is different in different clinical specimens.The epidemiological situation of nosocomial infection can be understood by analyzing the microbiological examination of different clinical specimens in clinic.In order to provide a reliable basis for clinical prevention and treatment of nosocomial infection, and to further improve the positive rate of clinical microbiological examination, we should actively carry out improvement countermeasures against its influencing factors.
