RESUMEN
Objective:To investigate the relationship between central venous-arterial blood carbon dioxide partial pressure difference (Pcv-aCO 2) and left ventricular ejection fraction(LVEF) in acute myocardial infarction. Methods:Clinical data of patients with acute myocardial infarction admitted to the Intensive Care Unit of Fujian Provincial Hospital from November 2019 to October 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. LVEF was measured by bedside echocardiogram. The patients were divided into the normal LVEF group (LVEF ≥ 52%) and decreased LVEF group (LVEF < 52%) according to LVEF. The differences in general information and hemodynamic parameters between the two groups were compared. The normality of the above data was tested by the Jarque-Bera test. Correlation analysis of hemodynamic indices with LVEF was performed. Binary logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors associated with the decrease in LVEF. The feasibility of diagnosing LVEF decline with Pcv-aCO 2 was assessed using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Results:Seventy-two patients with acute myocardial infarction were included for analysis, including 25 patients in the normal LVEF group and 47 patients in the decreased LVEF group. Pcv-aCO 2 was significantly higher in the decreased LVEF group than that in the normal LVEF group [(7.13±1.19) mmHg vs. (5.41±1.23) mmHg, P<0.01]. There was a negative correlation between LVEF and Pcv-aCO 2 ( rs= -0.740, P<0.01). The area under the ROC curve for Pcv-aCO 2 was 0.849 (95% CI: 0.758-0.939, P<0.01). The binary logistic regression analysis showed that Pcv-aCO 2 was an independent risk factor for decreased LVEF ( OR=2.251, 95% CI: 1.326-3.820). Conclusions:To a certain extent, the increase of Pcv-aCO 2 can predict the decrease of LVEF in acute myocardial infarction.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the epidemiological characteristics and main risk factors of chronic kidney disease in the elderly in Tianmen, Hubei Province. Methods A descriptive method was adopted in this study. Using stratified sampling, a total of 720 local residents over 65 years old in Tianmen of Hubei Province were selected from January 2017 to January 2020 as the research subjects. The general information of patients with chronic kidney disease was compared, and the difference in the characteristics of patients with different disease progression was compared. The risk factors for chronic kidney disease and disease progression were analyzed. Results Through the diagnosis of chronic kidney disease, a total of 82 patients with chronic kidney disease were found, including 33 patients in stage I, 26 patients in stage II and 23 patients in stage III. As the disease progressed, the patient's age, serum uric acid, triglyceride, total cholesterol, fasting blood glucose, serum creatinine, and the incidence of chronic diseases all increased significantly. The results of correlation analysis showed that the incidence of chronic kidney disease and the progression of the disease were positively correlated with age, body mass index, serum uric acid, triglyceride, total cholesterol, fasting blood glucose, serum creatinine level, diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia, which were independent risk factors for chronic kidney disease. Conclusion The prevalence of chronic kidney disease in Tianmen was 11.39%. Higher age, serum uric acid, blood lipid, blood pressure and blood glucose levels are all important factors for the progression of chronic kidney disease.
