RÉSUMÉ
Objective:To investigate the factors influencing the short-term prognosis of patients with acute diquat poisoning (ADQP).Methods:Patients with ADQP admitted to the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University and Xuzhou Occupational Disease Prevention Hospital from August 2015 to July 2022 were retrospectively selected. Patients were divided into survival group and death group according to 30-day survival status after poisoning. The general data and the results of the first laboratory examination after admission were compared between the two groups. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the independent risk factors associated with prognosis. And the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to evaluate the prognostic value of risk factors in patients with ADQP.Results:A total of 79 ADQP patients were included in this study, including 40 patients in the survival group and 39 patients in the death group. There were statistically significant differences in the age, poisoning dose, white blood cell, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, serum creatinine, blood urea, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio, monocyte to lymphocyte ratio, and systemic immune inflammation index (SII) between survival and death groups (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the poisoning dose ( OR=1.018, 95% CI: 1.001-1.035, P=0.033), serum creatinine ( OR=1.049, 95% CI: 1.005-1.095, P=0.028), and SII ( OR=1.001, 95% CI: 1.000-1.002, P=0.029) were independent risk factors for the prognosis of patients with diquat poisoning. The areas under the curves of the combined detection of poisoning dose, serum creatinine and SII was 0.968, the sensitivity was 0.949, and the specificity was 0.900, which were higher than those of the single index. Conclusions:The poisoning dose, serum creatinine and SII are independent prognostic predictors of patients with ADQP. The combination of three independent factors has higher sensitivity and specificity in evaluating the prognosis of ADQP, which could be used as a reliable indicator to predict the prognosis of patients with ADQP.

Objective:To investigate the effect of continuous hemoperfusion (HP) on the levels of soluble CD14 isoform (sCD14-st) and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) on patients with diquat (DQ) poisoning and its significance.Methods:A total of 86 patients with acute DQ poisoning admitted to the department of emergency medicine, Harrison International Peace Hospital Affiliated to Hebei Medical University from May 2018 to August 2021 were enrolled and divided into the intermittent HP group (40 cases) and the continuous HP group (46 cases) according to the random number table method. All patients received basic treatment and continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) within 24 hours after admission. On this basis, the intermittent HP group received HP treatment within 2 hours, lasting 2 hours each time for every 8 hours, 3 times in all; the continuous HP group received continued HP treatment until there was no DQ component in urine samples. Serum NGAL levels were detected in all patients before treatment and at 3 hours, 12 hours, 24 hours, 2 days, 3 days, 5 days, and 7 days after treatment. At the same time, serum sCD14-st, blood lactate (Lac), arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO 2), serum creatinine (SCr), MB isoenzyme of creatine kinase (CK-MB) and interleukin-18 (IL-18) levels were detected before treatment and at 24 hours, 3 days, and 7 days after treatment. Kaplan-Meier survival curve was drawn to analyze the 28-day survival of patients. Results:Before treatment, there was no significant difference in serum NGAL, sCD14-st, Lac, PaO 2, SCr, CK-MB and IL-18 levels between the two groups. With the prolongation of treatment, the serum levels of NGAL, sCD14-st, Lac, SCr, CK-MB and IL-18 in the intermittent HP group increased at first and then decreased. Serum levels of NGAL, sCD14-st, CK-MB and IL-18 reached their peaks at 24 hours after treatment, and the Lac and SCr levels reached their peaks at 3 days after treatment. In addition, the levels of the above indexes at each time point in the continuous HP group were all significantly lower than those in the intermittent HP group [after 24 hours of treatment: NGAL (μg/L) was 345.90±30.75 vs. 404.24±38.79, sCD14-st (ng/L) was 1 941.88±298.02 vs. 2 656.35±347.93, CK-MB (U/L) was 30.67±9.11 vs. 43.28±8.06, IL-18 (ng/L) was 139.49±16.29 vs. 177.98±27.85; 3 days of treatment: Lac (mmol/L) was 2.98±0.26 vs. 3.72±0.49, SCr (μmol/L) was 125.01±24.24 vs. 156.74±28.88; all P < 0.05]. However, there was no significant difference in PaO 2 levels between the two groups at each time point after treatment. The Kaplan-Meier survival curve showed that the 28-day mortality of patients in the continuous HP group was significantly lower than that in the intermittent HP group [26.09% (12/46) vs. 52.50% (21/40); Log-Rank test: χ2 = 7.288, P = 0.007]. Conclusion:Continuous HP could effectively reduce serum sCD14-st, NGAL levels and 28-day mortality in patients with DQ poisoning, with good curative effect.
RÉSUMÉ
For the evaluation on the efficacy of activated charcoal as an antidote in acute diquat poisoning, the adsorption characteristics of diquat in distilled water and in physiological saline solution were investigated.<BR>The amount of diquat adsorbed onto activated charcoal in physiological saline solution was larger than that in distilled water. The enhancing effect of sodium chloride on diquat removal by activated charcoal was observed.<BR>The adsorption rate of diquat onto activated charcoal was also enhanced by the addition of saline. The correlations between the adsorptivity for diquat and properties of activated charcoal were not significant.<BR>These results suggest that the increase of adsorptivity of activated charcoal for diquat might be due to the increase in electrostatic interaction between the surface on which an electrical double layer was formed by saline and diquat.
