Résumé
Objective To study the diagnostic value of common inflammatory markers in patients with infectious diseases. Methods One hundred sepsis patients, 100 viral infection patients,100 pulmonary tuberculosis patients and 100 gonorrhea patients were analyzed retrospectively. The contents of procalcitonin (PCT), C-reactive protein (CRP), haptoglobin (HP), ceruloplasmin (CER), α1-acid glycoprotein (α1-AAG), α1-antitrypsin (α1-AAT), white blood cell count (WBC) and erythrocyte sedimetation rate (ESR) were measured. The receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC curve), sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, Youden's index,positive and negative likelihood ratios and total coincidence rate were calculated respectively. Results The area under the ROC curve, sensitivity, specificity, Youden's index and positive likelihood ratios,positive predictive value and total coincidence rate of PCT in sepsis patients were 0. 895, 0.84, 0.92,0.76, 10.50, 0.91 and 0.88, respectively, which were superior to CRP, HP, CER, α1-AAG, α1-AAT, WBC and ESR. Conclusions PCT is a better inflammatory reactive parameter than other parameters currently applied in practice and may serve as a rapid and sensitive test in the early stage of severe bacterial infections.

Objective To investigate the effects of preoperative selective gastric arterial chemoembolization on the tumor vasculature in patients with gastric carcinoma.Methods 40 patients with gastric cancer were divided into two groups :(1)gastric arterial influsion(GAI)group;and (2)gastric arterial chemoembolization(GAE)group.The peripheral vein plasma tumor necrosis factor(TNF ?) and thrombomodulin(TM)were determined before radiologic intervention(RI),and1d,3d after R1;and the gastric vein plasma TNF ? and TM were also determined during operation.The curative surgical resection of gastric cancer was performed between 7 and 10 days after treatment.Stomach histological alterations were observed postoperatively.Results Compared with GAI group ,the plasma TNF ? levels increased markedly at all the time points,and gastric vein plasma TM levels decreased siginificantly in GAE group (P
Résumé
Objective To explore the preventive role of low molecular weight heparin in progressive ischemic stroke.Methods 203 patients with cerebral infarction within 72 hours of the onset were randomly divided into low molecular weight heparin(LMWH) group and routine treatment group.LMWH group was administered subcutaneously twice daily for 5~10 days with 0.4 mL LMWH on the basis of routine treatment. The activities of plasminogen and coagulation factor Ⅹ and the indexes of hemorrheology were measured before and after the treatment, the neurologic function deficits of patients with progressive ischemic stroke were evaluated.Results 11 cases for progressive ischemic stroke were occurred in LMWH group, 23 cases in routine treatment group for progressive ischemic stroke, there was remarkable difference between the two groups( P
