ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the diagnostic value of serum lipoprotein(a)[Lp(a)]in cerebral infarction by a model of Logistic regression and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Methods A total of 316 patients with cerebral thrombosis from Foshan Hospital Affiliated to Southern Medical University were col-lected.According to the diagnostic criteria,the patients were divided into cerebral thrombosis group(196 ca-ses)and non-cerebral thrombosis group(120 cases).All the subjects were tested for Lp(a)by immune turbi-dimetry.To evaluate the diagnostic value of Lp(a)by applying logistic regression model,drawing ROC curves and calculating the area under the curve(AUC).Results The P25,P50,P75of Lp(a)in cerebral thrombosis group and non-cerebral thrombosis group were 97.23,238.22,430.01 and 29.80,92.27,233.86,the average rank were 185.42 and 114.52,the differences in the two groups were significant(P<0.05).Logistic regres-sion showed that the correlation between Lp(a)level and cerebral thrombosis was positive,the partial regres-sion coefficient(B)was 0.005,Wald value was 31.295.It suggested that when the levels of Lp(a)was higher the risk of cerebral thrombosis increased.The most valuable diagnosis level was 305.80 mg/L.And the area under the ROC curve(AUC)was 0.724,which has moderate diagnostic efficacy.Diagnostic specificity was 91.7%,misdiagnosis rate was 8.3%,negative predictive value was 48.7%,sensitivity was 40.8%,omission rate was 59.2%,positive predictive value was 88.9%.Conclusion The level of serum Lp(a)has high diag-nostic specificity for the diagnosis of cerebral thrombosis.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore preliminarily the effects of preoperative depression condition in patients with breast cancer on the efficacy of intravenous analgesia with dezocine and the serum level of 5 hydroxytryptamine.Methods Sixty patients with breast cancer were assessed with Hamilton depression scale (HAMD).The total patients were divided into three groups according to HAMD scores,including normal group (26 cases),suspicious group (22 cases),and depression group (12 cases).The postoperative analgesia was facilitated with patients intravenous control analgesia with dezocine and the postoperative pain was assessed by visual analogue scale (VAS) at 2 hours,12 hours,and 24 hours.Yhe serum concentration of 5 hydroxytryptamine was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays before anesthesia,2 hours after surgery beginning,and 24 hours after surgery.Results The postoperative VAS at 12 hours and 24 hours in suspicious group and in depression group were higher than those in normal group (P ＜ 0.05).There was no statistical difference between depression and suspicious groups (P ＞ 0.05).The serum concentrations of 5 hydroxytryptamine in three groups increased obviously at 2 hours after surgery beginning (P＜0.05),and then decreased at 24 hours postoperation.The serum concentrations of 5 hydroxytryptamine in suspicious group and depression group at three measurement point were significantly lower than those in normal group (P ＜0.05).The serum concentrations of 5 hydroxytryptamine in depression group at three measurement point were significantly lower than those in suspicious group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Under this preliminary study condition,the preoperative severity of the depression in patients with breast cancer may affect the analgesia effect of patients intravenous control analgesia with dezocine and maybe have some relationships with serum levels of 5 hydroxytryptamine.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the application value of urine microalbumin (mALB) ,retinol binding protein(RBP) and cys-tatin C(CysC) and their combined detection in early diagnosis of type 2 diabetic nephropathy(DN) .Methods Ninety-two inpatients with DN (DN group) and 90 people undergoing the physical examination(control group) in our hospital from June 2014 to Decem-ber 2015 were collected .Urine mALB ,RBP and CysC were detected in all subjects and detection results were analyzed statistically . Results The levels of urine mALB ,RBP and CysC in the DN group were significantly higher than those in the control group ,the differences all had statistical significance (P< 0 .05) .Among 3 indicators ,the positive rate of urine mALB for detecting DN was highest (94 .57% ) ,while which of 3-index combined detection was 97 .83% ,and significantly higher than that of single detection , the difference was statistically significant(P<0 .05) .The sensitivity ,specificity ,positive predictive value ,negative predictive value and Youden index of 3-index combined detection were all higher than those of single index .The ROC curve showed that AUC of u-rine mALB for diagnosing DN was 0 .732 ,the diagnostic cut-off value was 43 .58 mg/L ,AUC of urine RBP was 0 .685 ,the diagnos-tic cut-off value was 1 .47 mg/mL ,AUC of urine CysC was 0 .701 ,the diagnostic cut-off value was 1 .42 mg/L ,while AUC of com-bined detection was 0 .928 .Conclusion Urine mALB ,RBP and CysC are better indexes reflecting renal injury .Their combined de-tection will increase the positive rate ,sensitivity and specificity for diagnosing DN .So monitoring the levels of urine mALB ,RBP and CysC has an important significance to diagnosing the occurrence and development of DN early renal injury and prevention ,treat-ment and delaying progress of DN .
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical significance of serum lipids level changes in patients with acute leukemia.Method Serum total cholesterol(TC),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C),triglyceride(TG),apolipoprotein A1(apoA1),apolipoprotein B(apoB)were determined by using enzymatic methods before treatment and in complete remission period.Results The level of TC,LDL-C,HDL-C,apoA1,apoB before treatment were significantly lower than that in control group and in period of complete remission (P
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect and safety of micro-dosage heparin therapy for acute leukemia with pre-diffuse intravascular coagulation (pre-DIC).Methods 36 cases of acute leukemia with pre-DIC were divided into two groups,18 cases were treated with micro-dosage heparin therapy (group A),18 cases were treated with conventional therapy(group B).Results Within the first 10 days,the cases which transformed to diffuse intravascular coagulation (DIC) in group A were significantly lower than group B(P
ABSTRACT
The effect of rhGM-CSF/IL-3 on apoptosis of Ara-C-induced myeloid leukemic cell line HL- 60 was investigated. The results indicated that treatment with rhGM-CSF/IL-3 in combination with Ara-C significantly inhibited the colony growth of HL-60 and enhanced the oligonucleosomal DNA fragmentation as compared with Ara-C alone. The Ara-C mediated apoptosis rates of HL-60 cells treated with rhGM-CSF/IL-3 fusion protein alone were markablely improved compared with treatment with rhIL-3 plus rhGM-CSF, it was noted that the Ara-C mediated of apoptosis normal peripheral white blood cells was less affected by rhGM-CSF/IL-3. It suggested that rhGM-CSF/IL-3 could be used as a possible curing drug during the phase of induced remission of leukemia.
