ABSTRACT

Abstract Objective: To explore the changes and clinical significance of serum Neuron-Specific Enolase (NSE) and Squamous Cell Carcinoma antigen (SCC) in patients with lung cancer before and after radiotherapy. Methods: 82 patients with lung cancer were treated with radiotherapy, and effective clinical intervention was given during the radiotherapy process. The patients were followed up for 1 year after radiotherapy and were divided into a recurrence and metastasis group (n = 28) and a non-recurrence and metastasis group (n = 54) according to their prognosis. Another 54 healthy volunteers examined in the present study's hospital during the same period were selected as the control group. To compare the changes of NSE and SCC levels in serum in patients with lung cancer at admission and after radiotherapy, and to explore their clinical significance. Results: After intervention, NSE and SCC levels in the serum of the two groups of patients were significantly lower than those before intervention, and the levels of CD4+ and CD4+/CD8+ were significantly higher than those before intervention (p < 0.05); the level of CD8+ was not significantly different from that before intervention (p > 0.05). And NSE and SCC levels in the intervention group were significantly lower than those in the routine group, the levels of CD4+, CD4+/CD8+ were significantly higher than those in the routine group (p < 0.05). Conclusion: NSE and SCC in serum can preliminarily evaluate the effect of radiotherapy in patients with lung cancer and have a certain predictive effect on prognosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of central nervous system specific protein B (S100B)combined with neuron specific enolase(NSE)and serum lactate for severe neonatal hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy(HIE)induced by perinatal asphyxia.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted.A total of 126 neonates admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Xi ′an Jiaotong University due to perinatal asphyxia from April 2019 to April 2022 were selected as the research subjects.Neonates who were clinically diagnosed with HIE were selected as the observation group(45 cases), and those without HIE were selected as the control group(81 cases). The differences of each parameter between the two groups were compared.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression were used to analyze the indicators that might cause severe HIE.The risk factors were put into the receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)to analyze their predictive value for prognosis.Results:There were no significant differences in gestational age, weight and gender between the two groups(all P>0.05). The Apgar scores in the observation group were lower than those in the control group; the rates of cardiopulmonary resuscitation, mechanical ventilation, and prolonged labor were higher than those in the control group.These differences are statistically significant(all P< 0.05). Compared with the control group, the observation group showed significantly higher rates of abnormal brain electroencephalogram and cranial magnetic resonance imaging, as well as increased levels of lactate, S100B( t-values for 8 h and 72 h were 13.10 and 2.00 respectively), and NSE( t-values for 8 h and 72 h were 10.85 and 15.57 respectively), all with statistical significance(all P< 0.05). By conducting binary Logistic regression analysis on indicators that might cause HIE, it was found that Apgar scores at 5 minutes and 10 minutes were negatively correlated with the risk of severe HIE( OR<1 and P<0.05). Prolonged labor, as well as factors such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation, mechanical ventilation, S100B concentration at 8 hours after birth, NSE concentration at 8 hours after birth, and lactate levels were all risk factors for poor prognosis( OR>1 and P<0.05). The predictive threshold values for severe HIE using the biochemical markers S100B, NSE, and lactate were 1.87 μg/L, 19 μg/L, and 4.6 mmol/L respectively.The sensitivity of prediction were 78%, 68%, and 75% respectively; while the specificity were 66%, 71%, and 67%, and all area under the curve(AUC)was greater than 0.5.The sensitivity of the combined prediction by the three factors was 87%, with a specificity of 79% and AUC 0.86( P<0.05). Conclusion:S100B, NSE and serum lactate are independent risk factors for predicting neonatal serve HIE, and the combination of the three indicators can improve the predictive efficiency.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the predictive value of neuron-specific enolase (NSE), serum 100 calcium-binding protein β (S100β), gray-white-matter-ratio on head CT (GWR) and the combination of the three on the prognosis of neurological function in patients with post-cardiac arrest brain injury (PCABI).Methods:A total of 136 patients admitted to Tianjin Medical University General Hospital after resuscitation from cardiac arrest from September 2021 to May 2023 were selected and included in the good prognosis group (96 patients) and the poor prognosis group (40 patients) based on the Glasgow-Pittsburgh Cerebral Performance (CPC) classification at discharge, respectively, to compare the demographic data, resuscitation data and NSE, S100β and GWR levels within 24 h of admission between the 2 groups, and modified Poisson regression was applied to investigate the factors affecting the neuroprognosis of PCABI patients. The effectiveness of NSE, S100β, GWR and the combination of the three in predicting neurological prognosis was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and the area under the curve (AUC), and the statistical differences in AUC were compared by Delong's test.Results:NSE, S100β, GWR, history of coronary artery disease, APACHEⅡ score, time from CA to CPR, duration of resuscitation, and dose of epinephrine use were independent factors influencing the neurological prognosis of PCABI patients ( P<0.05). Compared with the good prognosis group, NSE and S100β levels were significantly higher and GWR levels were significantly lower in the poor prognosis group, with statistically significant differences ( P<0.01). The AUCs for NSE, S100β and GWR to predict poor neurological prognosis were 0.905(0.851, 0.959), 0.876 (0.797, 0.956), 0.842(0.754, 0.930), with cut-off values of 26.75 ng/mL, 1.35 ng/mL and 1.195, respectively, and an AUC of 0.982 (0.961, 1.000) for the combination of the three predicting poor neurological prognosis, significantly higher than any single indicator ( P=0.001 4, 0.001 6, 0.002 8). Conclusions:Early monitoring of NSE, S100β and GWR is effective in predicting the neurological prognosis of PCABI patients at discharge, and the combination of all three significantly improves the predictive power.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the value of preoperative enhanced CT combined with serum cytokeratin fragment 19 (CYFER21-1) and neuron-specific enolase (NSE) in the diagnosis of lymph node metastasis in patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods:160 patients with NSCLC admitted to Linyi Cancer Hospital from October 2018 to October 2021 were retrospectively selected. All patients received surgical treatment in our hospital, and 84 patients with lymph node metastasis (metastatic group) and 76 patients without lymph node metastasis (non-metastatic group) were confirmed after surgery. The features of enhanced CT images and serum CYFER21-1 and NSE levels were compared between the two groups before operation, and the value of each index in the diagnosis of lymph node metastasis in patients with NSCLC alone and in combination was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve.Results:The proportions of patients with lesion diameter ≥3.0 cm, pleural depression, lymph node enlargement shown by CT, lymph node short diameter ≥10 mm, lymph node boundary ambiguity and lymph node enhancement in metastatic group were significantly higher than those in non-metastatic group, with statistical significance (all P<0.05). Serum CYFER21-1 and NSE levels in metastatic group were significantly higher than those in non-metastatic group, with statistical significance (all P<0.05). The area under curve (AUC) of CYFER21-1 and NSE levels in the diagnosis of lymph node metastasis in NSCLC patients were 0.652 and 0.845, respectively, and the diagnostic cut-off values were 4.81 ng/ml and 24.14 ng/ml, respectively. The sensitivity and specificity of CYFER21-1+ NSE+ enhanced CT in the diagnosis of lymph node metastasis in NSCLC patients were 91.67% and 94.74%. Conclusions:Preoperative enhanced CT is of certain clinical value in the diagnosis of lymph node metastasis in NSCLC patients. Combined with serum CYFER21-1 and NSE levels, enhanced CT can further improve the sensitivity and specificity of diagnosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the significance of blood lipids [triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC)], lipoproteins [high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL)], and serum levels of pentraxin-3 (PTX-3), thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1), neuron specific enolase (NSE), and human cytokeratin 21-1 fragment (CYFRA21-1) in patients with advanced gastric cancer, and to provide a basis for the early, middle, and late diagnosis and treatment of gastric cancer.Methods:127 gastric cancer patients admitted to 3201 Hospital from January 2019 to January 2022 were selected as the research subjects. They were divided into early stage group ( n=45), mild stage group ( n=43), and late stage group ( n=39) based on their condition. Enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect blood lipids (TG, TC), PTX-3, TTF-1, NSE, CYFRA21-1, and chemical precipitation method was used to detect lipoprotein metabolism (HDL, LDL) in the three groups of patients. The differences in blood lipids, lipoproteins, PTX-3, TTF-1, NSE, and CYFRA21-1 between three groups of gastric cancer patients and the late stage group of gastric cancer patients before and after surgery were analyzed. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to investigate the correlation between blood lipids (TG, TC), lipoprotein (HDL, LDL), PTX-3, TTF-1, NSE, CYFRA21-1, and gastric cancer incidence. The predictive value of individual and combined detection of the above indicators for gastric cancer was analyzed using the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. Results:The results showed that the TG, TC, and LDL levels in the late stage group were higher than those in the mild stage and early stage groups (all P<0.05), while the HDL levels were lower than those in the mild stage and early stage groups (all P<0.05). The serum levels of PTX-3, TTF-1, NSE, and CYFRA21-1 were higher than those in the mild stage and early stage groups (all P<0.05). The postoperative levels of TG, PTX-3, TTF-1, NSE, CYFRA21-1, TC, and LDL in the late stage group were significantly lower than those before surgery (all P<0.05) and the HDL level was higher than that before surgery ( P<0.05). The levels of TG, TC, HDL, LDL, PTX-3, TTF-1, NSE, and CYFRA21-1 were correlated with the late onset of gastric cancer (all P<0.05). The ROC curve showed that the area under the ROC curve (AUC) of PTX-3, TTF-1, NSE, and CYFRA21-1 combined detection was significantly higher than that of PTX3, TTF1, NSE, and CYFRA211 alone. Among them, PTX-3+ TTF-1+ NSE+ CYFRA21-1 combined detection had the highest AUC, sensitivity, and specificity. Conclusions:Patients with advanced gastric cancer have abnormal levels of blood lipids (TG, TC), lipoprotein (HDL, LDL), and serum PTX-3, TTF-1, NSE, and CYFRA21-1. Effective intervention measures need to be developed based on the above indicators to improve survival rate.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the clinical values of progastrin-releasing peptide (Pro-GRP), neuron-specific enolase (NSE), cytokeratin 19 fragment antigen 21-1 (CYFRA21-1), squamous cell carcinoma antigen (SCCA) and human human epididymis protein 4 (HE4) detections in the diagnosis of lung cancer patients.Methods:The clinical data of 200 lung cancer patients who were admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University from January 2020 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the pathological type, the patients were divided into lung adenocarcinoma group (80 cases), lung squamous cell carcinoma group (75 cases) and small cell lung cancer group (45 cases). Fifty patients with benign lung diseases and 50 healthy physical examiners who were admitted to the hospital during the same period were selected. All the subjects were tested for the levels of Pro-GRP, NSE, CYFRA21-1, SCCA and HE4, and the differences of each index level in the subjects of different subgroups were compared. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn, and using pathological diagnosis result as the gold standard, the diagnostic efficacy of each index alone and in combination for lung cancer was compared.Results:The serum levels of Pro-GRP, NSE, CYFRA21-1, SCCA and HE4 in lung cancer group were higher than those in the benign lung diseases group and the healthy control group (all P < 0.001). There were no statistical differences in the levels of serum Pro-GRP, NSE, CYFRA21-1, SCCA and HE4 between the benign lung diseases group and the healthy control group (all P > 0.05). The levels of Pro-GRP, NSE and HE4 in the small cell lung cancer group were higher than those in the lung adenocarcinoma group and the lung squamous cell carcinoma group (all P < 0.05). NSE and HE4 levels in the lung adenocarcinoma group were higher than those in the lung squamous carcinoma group (both P < 0.05), while CYFRA21-1 and SCCA levels were lower than those in the lung squamous carcinoma group (both P < 0.05). The AUC of lung cancer diagnosed by HE4 was the largest (0.813), the AUC of lung adenocarcinoma diagnosed by HE4 was the largest (0.824), the AUC of lung squamous carcinoma diagnosed by CYFRA21-1 was the largest (0.884), and the AUC of small cell lung cancer diagnosed by NSE was the largest (0.959). The AUC of lung cancer diagnosed by combined detection of 5 indicators was 0.951, the AUC of lung adenocarcinoma and small cell lung cancer diagnosed by combined detection of 5 indicators was 0.975 and 0.996, and the AUC of lung squamous cell carcinoma diagnosed by combined detection of CYFRA21-1, SCCA and HE4 was 0.967. Conclusions:The levels of Pro-GRP, NSE, CYFRA21-1, SCCA, HE4 and other indicators have certain clinical values in the diagnosis of lung cancer and its pathological types, and the combined detection of each index is more valuable than a single index.

ABSTRACT

Objective: To observe the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) on nerve injury markers and prognosis in patients with acute severe carbon monoxide poisoning (ASCOP) . Methods: In May 2021, 103 ASCOP patients were treated in the emergency department of Harrison International Peace Hospital of Hebei Medical University from November 2020 to January 2021. The patients were divided into two groups according to whether they received tDCS treatment. The control group (50 cases) were given oxygen therapy (hyperbaric oxygen and oxygen inhalation) , reducing cranial pressure, improving brain circulation and cell metabolism, removing oxygen free radicals and symptomatic support, and the observation group (53 cases) was treated with 2 weeks of tDCS intensive treatment on the basis of conventional treatment. All patients underwent at least 24 h bispectral index (BIS) monitoring, BIS value was recorded at the hour and the 24 h mean value was calculated. Neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and serum S100B calcium-binding protein (S100B) were detected after admission, 3 d, 7 d and discharge. Follow-up for 60 days, the incidence and time of onset of delayed encephalopathy (DEACMP) with acute carbon monoxide poisoning in the two groups were recorded. Results: The NSE and S100B proteins of ASCOP patients were significantly increased at admission, but there was no significant difference between the two groups (P=0.711, 0.326) . The NSE and S100B proteins were further increased at 3 and 7 days after admission. The increase in the observation group was slower than that in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P(3 d)=0.045, 0.032, P(7 d)=0.021, 0.000) ; After 14 days, it gradually decreased, but the observation group decreased rapidly compared with the control group, with a statistically significant difference (P=0.009, 0.025) . The 60 day follow-up results showed that the incidence of DEACMP in the observation group was 18.87% (10/53) , compared with 38.00% (19/50) in the control group (P=0.048) ; The time of DEACMP in the observation group[ (16.79±5.28) d] was later than that in the control group[ (22.30±5.42) d], and the difference was statistically significant (P=0.013) . Conclusion: The early administration of tDCS in ASCOP patients can prevent the production of NSE and S100B proteins, which are markers of nerve damage. and can improve the incidence and time of DEACMP.

ABSTRACT

Objectives To explore and compare the clinical characteristics and risk factors for mortality between patients with artificial quartz stone silicosis and those with classic silicosis. Methods A total of 48 patients with artificial quartz stone silicosis (experiment group) and 98 patients with classic silicosis (control group) were recruited as the research subjects using the convenience sampling method. Data of clinical symptoms, laboratory tests, high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT), and pulmonary pathology of the research subjects were retrospectively analyzed. The Cox proportional hazards regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors on the survival time of silicosis patients. Results Patients in the experiment group had shorter years of dust exposure, latency period and time since last exposure than those in the control group (all P<0.01). The positive rate of anti-nuclear antibodies and the expression of neuron-specific enolase in the experiment group were higher than those in the control group (39.6% vs 10.2%, median: 28.44 vs 16.25, both P<0.01). The PaO2 levels in the experiment group were lower than those in the control group (median: 66.0 vs 89.0, P<0.01). The patients in the experiment group had lower vital capacity, inspiratory reserve volume, forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1), forced vital capacity (FVC), and carbon monoxide diffusion capacity compared to the control group (all P<0.05), but the maximal expiratory flow in 75% vital capacity was higher than the control group (P<0.05). Compared with the control group, patients in the experiment group had the presence of ground-glass opacity (GGO) in both lungs, aggregation and fusion of subpleural nodules, and gradual formation of progressive massive fibrosis (PMF), with higher potential of pneumothorax. Within 5 years after diagnosis, the mortality of patients in the experiment group was higher than that in the control group (27.1% vs 4.1%, P<0.01). The Cox regression model analysis results showed that patients with nodule aggregation on lung HRCT images had a higher risk of mortality than those without nodule aggregation, and lower lung function including vital capacity, FVC, FEV1 and maximum expiratory flow in 25% vital capacity had higher risk of reduced survival time (all P<0.05). Conclusion Compared with patients with classic silicosis, patients with artificial quartz stone silicosis have higher level of serum neuron-specific enolase, increasing the risk of autoimmune diseases. Pulmonary imaging features in patients with artificial quartz stone silicosis include GGO, PMF and susceptibility to pneumothorax, and rare calcification of mediastinal lymph nodes, leading to a higher mortality rate within 5 years after diagnosis.

ABSTRACT

【Objective】 To investigate the predictive value of regional cerebral oxygen saturation (rScO2) monitoring during total aortic arch replacement and stent trunk surgery for perioperative neurocognitive disorders (PND) and changes in plasma S100β protein and neuron-specific enolase (NSE) concentrations and their relationship with PND. 【Methods】 Sixty-five Stanford type A aortic dissection patients who planned to undergo total aortic arch replacement and trunk stenting were selected. Their rScO2 values were monitored throughout the operation and recorded after induction (T1), the beginning of CPB (T2), during deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (T3), rewarming to 36℃(T4), CPB stop for 1 hour (T5), and post-operation (T6). After induction (Ta), rewarming to 36℃ (Tb),1 h (Tc), 6 h (Td) and 24 h (Te) after cessation of cardiopulmonary bypass, central venous blood was collected from patients, and the concentrations of S100β protein and NSE in plasma were detected by ELISA. The patients were divided into PND group and non-PND group by the evaluation of MMSE scale at time of before operation, on the day of extubation, and 7 days after operation. 【Results】 The incidence of PND was 44.6%. The rScO2 value at T2 was significantly lower than that at T1 (P<0.05). The rScO2 value of PND group at T3 and T6 was significantly lower than that at T1 and non-PND group (P<0.05). The mean value of rScO2 and the minimum value of rScO2 in PND group were significantly lower than those in non-PND group, while rScO2 %max in PND group was significantly higher than that in non-PND group (P<0.05). The intraoperative critical value of rScO2 %max was >9.89%, the area under curve (AUC) was 0.658 (95% CI: 0.525-0.791, P<0.05), and sensitivity and specificity were 48.3% and 75.0%, respectively. The concentrations of S100β protein and NSE protein in PND group were significantly higher than those in non-PND group at Tc and Td (P<0.01). Compared with Ta, the concentration of S100β protein in PND group was significantly increased at Tc and Td (P<0.001), and the concentration of NSE protein was significantly increased at Tb-Te (P<0.01). CPB time was an independent risk factor for PND. 【Conclusion】 The occurrence of PND after total arch replacement and stenting may be related to the decrease of rScO2 and the increase of S100β protein and NSE protein. Intraoperative rScO2 %max >9.89% can be a potential predictor of PND.

OBJECTIVES@#To observe the clinical efficacy of acupoint thread-embedding for children with tic disorders of spleen deficiency and liver hyperactivity and its effect on serum level of neuron-specific enolase (NSE).@*METHODS@#A total of 68 children with tic disorders of spleen deficiency and liver hyperactivity were randomized into an observation group (34 cases, 1 case dropped out) and a control group (34 cases, 3 cases dropped out, 1 case was eliminated). In the observation group, acupoint thread-embedding was applied at Baihui (GV 20) and bilateral Hegu (LI 4), Taichong (LR 3), Pishu (BL 20), Ganshu (BL 18), Quchi (LI 11), Zusanli (ST 36),etc., once every 4 weeks. In the control group, tiapride hydrochloride tablet was given orally, twice a day. Both groups were treated for 12 weeks. Before and after treatment, the Yale global tic severity scale (YGTSS) score and serum level of NSE were observed in the two groups, and the clinical efficacy was evaluated.@*RESULTS@#After treatment, except for vocal tic score of YGTSS in the control group, the each-item scores and total scores of YGTSS and serum levels of NSE in the two groups were decreased compared with those before treatment (P<0.05); the each-item scores and total score of YGTSS and serum level of NSE in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The total effective rate in the observation group was 87.9% (29/33), which was higher than 76.7% (23/30) in the control group (P<0.05).@*CONCLUSIONS@#Acupoint thread-embedding has a good effect in the treatment of children with tic disorders of spleen deficiency and liver hyperactivity, could reduce the YGTSS score and serum level of NSE.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To study the clinical effects of QingxinWendan decoction in the treatment of bipolar disorder (BD) manic episode.Methods:60 patients with BD manic episode treated in Hunan Brain Hospital from February 2020 to December 2020 were prospectively selected. They were included in the control group and the observation group according to the random alphabet method, with 30 cases in each group. The control group was treated with magnesium valproate sustained-release tablets, and the observation group was treated with Qingxin Wendan decoction combined with magnesium valproate sustained-release tablets. The curative effect was evaluated after 4 weeks of continuous treatment. The degree of mania before and after treatment was evaluated by Beck-Rafaelsen mania scale (BRMS); the cognitive function before and after treatment was evaluated by Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS-RC) and Wechsler Memory Scale (WMS); The levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), neuron specific enolase (NSE) and amyloid β protein (Aβ) levels were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) before and after treatment. Spearman correlation analysis was used to analyze the correlation between serum NSE and Aβ levels and WAIS-RC and WMS scores in the two groups.Results:The curative effect of the observation group was better than that of the control group, with statistically significant difference ( P<0.05). After treatment, the BRMS scores of the control group and the observation group decreased (all P<0.05), and the BRMS scores of the observation group were lower than those of the control group ( P<0.05); After treatment, the WAIS-RC and WMS scores of the control group and the observation group increased (all P<0.05), and the WAIS-RC and WMS scores of the observation group were higher than those of the control group (all P<0.05). After treatment, the serum levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, NSE and Aβ in two groups were decreased (all P<0.05), and the levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, NSE and Aβ in the observation group were lower than those in the control group (all P<0.05). NSE and Aβ levels were negatively correlated with WAIS-RC and WMS scores (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Magnesium valproate sustained-release tablets combined with Qingxin Wendan decoction in the treatment of patients with BD manic episode were superior to magnesium valproate sustained-release tablets alone in reducing manic score, IL-1β, TNF-α, NSE and Aβ levels, and improving the cognitive function of patients. The use of QingxinWendan decoction on top of valproate extended-release tablet treatment for BD manic episode was superior to treatment with valproate extended-release tablets alone in reducing mania scores, IL-1β, TNF-α, NSE and Aβ levels, as well as improving patients' cognitive function.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the correlation between tumor markers and prognosis of patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathy (IIM) associated interstitial lung disease (ILD).Methods:A total of 149 patients who were no less than 18 years old and diagnosed with IIM-ILD from July 2017 to September 2019 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were consecutively enrolled in the study. Ten patients were lost to follow-up. The remaining 139 cases were regarded as research objects. Patients were divided into survival group or death group according to their one-year survival status. Then their baseline characteristics were compared. Univariate Cox regression analyses of age, gender, cancer, inflammatory indexes, muscle zymogram, tumor markers, ferritin, melanoma differentiation-associated gene 5 (MDA5) antibody and treatment regimens were conducted to identify prognostic risk factors of one-year mortality. Corrected multivariable cox regression was applied to screen the independent risk factors associated with one-year mortality of IIM-ILD. According to the cut-off value of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and neuron specific enolase (NSE) (6 μg/L and 28 μg/L, respectively), patients were divided into high-level groups and low-level groups. Kaplan Meier survival curve were generated to compare one-year survival rate of high-level groups and low-level groups. On the basis of qualitative results of MDA5 antibody, patients were split into two groups with positive MDA5 antibody or negative MDA5 antibody. The differences of CEA, NSE levels between the two groups and the correlation between CEA, NSE levels and ferritin were analyzed.Results:Age, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), CEA, carbohydrate antigen (CA) 199, NSE and ferritin in the death group were higher than those in the survival group, while the rate of immunosuppressant administration was lower than that in survival group ( P<0.05). Univariate regression analyses showed that CEA, cytokeratin 19 fragment (CYFRA211) and NSE were risk factors for one-year mortality of IIM-ILD. Adjusted by age, treatment regimens and tumor, multivariate regression analysis showed that CEA [ HR=1.112, 95% CI (1.017-1.214), P=0.019] and NSE [ HR=1.033, 95% CI (1.002-1.064), P=0.034] were independent risk factors for one-year mortality. One-year survival rate of the group with CEA≥6 μg/L was lower than that in the group with CEA<6 μg/L (Logrank test, P<0.001). Similarly, one-year survival rate of the group with NSE≥28 μg/L was lower than that in the group with NSE<28 μg/L (Logrank test, P<0.001). In addition, the CEA level in patients with positive MDA5 antibody was higher than that in patients with negative MDA5 antibody ( P<0.001). However, there was no correlation between NSE and MDA5 antibody. Moreover, serum levels of CEA ( r=0.299, P=0.002) and NSE ( r=0.349, P<0.001) were positively correlated with ferritin. Conclusions:Tumor markers have predictive value for the prognosis of IIM-ILD. Higher CEA and NSE are independent risk factors for poor prognosis in patients with IIM-ILD.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To observe the protective effect of Angong Niuhuang pill on brain function of rats with sepsis, explore its protective mechanism, and provide the experimental basis for clinical application of Angong Niuhuang pill in the treatment of sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE).Methods:Thirty male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were divided into sham operation group, sepsis model group and Angong Niuhuang pill group according to random number table method, with 10 rats in each group. The sepsis model was established by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP); rats in sham operation group received open and closed abdomen. The rats in the Angong Niuhuang pill group were given Angong Niuhuang pill (0.3 g/kg) by gastric irrigation daily for 3 days before CLP, and the drugs were administrated 12 hours after modeling again. After 24 hours of CLP, the neuroreflex scores were evaluated, white blood cell count (WBC), the levels of serum neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and S100β were detected. Then the brain tissue was harvested. After hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, the pathological changes of brain tissue were observed under the light microscope. The mRNA expressions of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in brain tissue were detected by polymerase chain reaction.Results:Compared with the sham operation group, the total score of neuroreflex scores in the sepsis model group and the Angong Niuhuang pill group were significantly reduced (4.43±1.40, 6.57±1.90 vs. 9.40±0.84, both P < 0.05), WBC, serum NSE, S100β were significantly increased [WBC (×10 9/L): 8.07±1.32, 5.84±0.94 vs. 3.60±0.32; NSE (μg/L): 1.04±0.14, 0.61±0.07 vs. 0.16±0.04; S100β (ng/L): 255.624±30.25, 97.72±15.41 vs. 46.88±12.03, all P < 0.05], and the mRNA expressions of IL-6 and TNF-α in brain tissue were significantly increased [IL-6 mRNA (2 -ΔΔCt): 5.668±2.195, 3.605±1.014 vs. 0.997±0.329; TNF-α mRNA (2 -ΔΔCt): 18.996±0.913, 1.746±0.710 vs. 0.674±0.132, all P < 0.05]. Compared with the sepsis model group, the total score of neuroreflex scores in the Angong Niuhuang pill group was significantly increased (6.57±1.90 vs. 4.43±1.40, P < 0.05), WBC, serum NSE, S100β concentration, and the mRNA expressions of IL-6 and TNF-α in the brain were significantly reduced [WBC (×10 9/L): 5.84±0.94 vs. 8.07±1.32, NSE (μg/L): 0.61±0.07 vs. 1.04±0.14, S100β (ng/L): 97.72±15.41 vs. 255.62±30.25, IL-6 mRNA (2 -ΔΔCt): 3.605±1.014 vs. 5.668±2.195, TNF-α mRNA (2 -ΔΔCt): 1.746±0.710 vs. 18.996±0.913, all P < 0.05]. Brain histopathological observation showed that the hippocampal neurons in the sepsis model group were disordered arrangement, a large number of neuronal nuclei were contracted, and the tissue was loose with obvious edema. Compared with the sepsis model group, the Angong Niuhuang pill group had less nuclear shrinkage and tissue edema. Conclusions:The pretreatment of the Angong Niuhuang pill can improve the brain dysfunction of septic rats and reduce the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the brain. It is speculated that the Angong Niuhuang pill can protect the brain function in sepsis by inhibiting the inflammatory reaction in the brain.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To observe the changes of regional saturation of cerebral oxygenation (rScO 2) and blood neuron specific enolase (NSE) in patients after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), and to explore its value in evaluating the prognosis of patients' neurological function. Methods:From January 2012 to December 2020, 97 patients with return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) after cardiac arrest (CA) treated in the intensive care unit (ICU) of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were selected. According to the prognosis, the patients were divided into two groups: good neurological function group [Glasgow-Pittsburgh Cerebral Performance Categories (CPC) 1-2, 20 cases] and neurological dysfunction group (CPC classification 3-5, 77 cases). The clinical data of gender, age, the number of patients with defibrillable rhythm, time of ROSC, the number of CA patients outside the hospital, acute physiology and chronic health evaluationⅡ(APACHEⅡ), Glasgow coma scale (GCS), global non-response scale (FOUR), body temperature, mean arterial pressure (MAP), blood lactic acid (Lac) and GCS at discharge, as well as the length of ICU stay, rScO 2 and blood NSE were collected. The differences of rScO 2 and NSE between the two groups were compared; and the receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC curve) was drawn to evaluate the value of rScO 2 and NSE alone or in combination in predicting the prognosis of patients with ROSC after CA. Results:The rScO 2 of good neurological function group was significantly higher than that of neurological dysfunction group at 1, 3, 6, 12, 24 and 48 hours (all P < 0.05). At 24 hours after admission, the rScO 2 on the left and right sides of good neurological function group was significantly higher than that in neurological dysfunction group [left: 0.65 (0.59, 0.76) vs. 0.55 (0.44, 0.67), right: 0.62 (0.61, 0.73) vs. 0.50 (0.30, 0.69), both P < 0.05], and NSE was significantly lower than that in the neurological dysfunction group [ng/L: 21.42 (15.38, 29.69) vs. 45.82 (24.05, 291.26), P < 0.05]. ROC curve analysis showed that both rScO 2 and NSE alone and combined detection had a certain value in predicting the prognosis of neurological function in patients with ROSC after CA, and the area under the ROC curve (AUC) detected by the combination was the largest, which was higher than the AUC predicted by rScO 2 or NSE (0.904 vs. 0.884, 0.792). When the cut-off value of combination was 0.83, the sensitivity and specificity were 75.7% and 100% respectively. Conclusion:Monitoring rScO 2 and NSE can predict the prognosis of neurological function after CPR, especially the combined evaluation of the two indexes, which can greatly improve the accuracy of diagnosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the changes and clinical significance of serum S100β and neuron-specific enolase (NSE) levels of children with acute brain injury(ABI).Methods:100 children with ABI treated in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) of the Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University from June 2019 to June 2020 were prospectively selected as the ABI group, and 30 normal children in the children′s health clinic of the hospital were selected as the control group. The serum S100β and NSE levels of all subjects was detected. According to the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), children with ABI were divided into severe brain injury group ( n=26), moderate brain injury group ( n=35) and mild brain injury group ( n=39). The prognosis of children with ABI after 3 months of treatment was evaluated according to the Glasgow prognosis scale (GOS) and they were divided into poor prognosis group ( n=26) and good prognosis group ( n=74). The relationship between serum S100β and NSE levels and the severity and prognosis of children with ABI was analyzed. Results:The serum S100β and NSE levels in the ABI group were significantly higher than those in the control group, and the serum S100β and NSE levels in children with ABI increased with the severity of injury and poor prognosis ( P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that serum S100β and NSE levels in children with ABI were positively correlated with GCS scores ( r=0.521, 0.643, P<0.05). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that glucose(GLU) ( OR=1.631, 95% CI: 1.278-2.082), S100β ( OR=1.907, 95% CI: 1.558-5.877), NSE ( OR=2.896, 95% CI: 1.193-7.029) were independent prognostic factor in children with ABI ( P<0.05). Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve showed that the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of serum S100β+ NSE [area under curve (AUC)=0.932, 95% CI: 0.875-0.969] in predicting the poor prognosis of children with ABI were higher than those of serum S100β(AUC=0.728, 95% CI: 0.643-0.803), NSE (AUC=0.808, 95% CI: 0.729-0.871) alone. Conclusions:The levels of serum S100β and NSE in children with ABI aresignificantly increased, which are closely related to the severity of the disease and prognosis. They can be used as predictors of poor prognosis in children with ABI. Combined detection can enhance the diagnostic value.
