ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the correlation and significance of S100A12 with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS).Methods Fifty-three patients with OSAHS were chosen as OSAHS group and 46 healthy volunteers were chosen as control group.The levels of S100A12 and hs-CRP in the two groups were compared,and its relationship with those of epworth (ESS),apnea hypopnea index (AHI),and minimum blood oxygen saturation (L-SpO2) were analysised.Results The scores of ESS,BMI,A HI,L-SpO2,hs-CRP and S100A12 in two groups were statistically significant (P＜0.05).The severity of hs-CRP in severe OSAHS group was significantly higher than that of mild OSAHS group (P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in hs-CRP between moderate OSAHS group and mild OSAHS group and severe group (P＞0.05).The level of S100A12 in severe OSAHS group was significantly higher than that of moderate OSAHS group and OSAHS mild group(P＜0.05).The level of S100A12 in moderate moderate group was significantly higher than that of mild group(P＜0.01).hs-CRP was negatively correlated with ESS and AHI (r=0.822,0.787,P＜0.01),was positively correlated with L-SpO2 (r=-0.740,P＜0.01),S100A12 was positively correlated with ESS and AHI (r =0.707,P ＜ 0.01),and negatively correlated with ESS and AHI (r =0.707,0.807,P＜0.01),and negatively correlated with with L-SpO2 (r=-0.670,P＜0.01).Conclusion S100A12 is associated with OSAHS.The higher the severity of OSAHS,the higher the S100A12 value,which can be used as a new predictor of cardiovascular disease risk in OSAHS patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect and safety of early electric bronchoscope on patients with nonresponding pneumonia. Method Seventy non responding pneumonia patients were selected from our hospital , who received treatments from January 2015 to April 2016.According to the random table ,patients were randomly divided into the observation group(34 cases)and the control group(36 cases). According to the experience and sputum culture results,patients in the control group were given the conventional therapy,and patients in the observation group were given bronchoscope and transbronchil lung biopsy(TBLB). The effect of bronchoscopy,the treatment curative effect,duration of fever,the period of the elevated CRP dropped to baseline,the length of hospital stay and medical costs were compared between the two groups. Results The diagnostic rate of bronchoscopy and the positive rate of airway suction bacterial culture in the observation group were similar with those in the control group,with no significant differences. The positive rate of airway suction bacterial culture was significantly higher than that of sputum culture in the observation group. The positive rate of airway suction bacterial culture was higher than that of sputum culture in the control group ,but with no significant difference.The total effective rate in the observation group(87.1%)was significantly higher than that in the control group(58.8%). The duration of fever and the time of the elevated CRP dropped to baseline in the observation group were significantly shorter than those in the control group. The hospital stay and hospital costs in the observation group were also significantly lower than those in the control group. Conclusion Early bronchoscopy can obtain diagnosis evidence of etiology and histology and improve the diagnostic rate,meanwhile,it also has a therapeutic effect.It can improve the clinical treatment effect and shorten the healing time and the cost of hospitalization. In addition , early electronic bronchoscopy has fewer adverse reactions and it may play an important role in diagnosis and treatment on nonresponding pneumonia patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the safety, efficiency and efficacy economics of local application of domestic fluconazole in treatment of chronic obstruction pulmonary disease (COPD) complicated with oral candidiasis. Methods Selected 74 patients with chronic obstruction pulmonary disease (COPD) complicated with oral candidiasis from May, 2013 to Oct. 2015 in our hospital were divided into the observation group in 35 cases and the control group in 39 cases according to table of random number. The observation group was given local application of domestic fluconazole, and the control group was given systemic application of imported fluconazole. The clinical effects and side effects of both groups were observed and compared. Results The total effect rate in observation group (100%) was higher than that in the control group (97.4%) without significant difference (P > 0.05). The cute rate in observation group (94.3%) was higher than that in control group (87.2.4%) without significant difference (P > 0.05). The average course of treatment was shorter in the observation group (2.9 d) than that in control group(5.2 d), with significant difference (P 0.05). The cost of antifungal drugs in the observation group was lower than that in the control group, (t = -23.398, P = 0.000). The cost-effectiveness ratio in the observation group was lower than that in the control group. Conclusion Local application of domestic fluconazole has similar effect and side effect to systemic application of imported fluconazole in treatment of COPD complicated with oral candidiasis,but has short course of treatment and low cost .
