RESUMO
Objective:To analyze risk factors for deep vein thrombosis(DVT)in patients with severe cerebral infarction and to find early and sensitive indicators for the prediction and intervention of DVT.Methods:A total of 226 patients with severe cerebral infarction aged 62.5±12.9 years in our department from January 2017 to May 2020 were enrolled.Clinical data, biochemical examinations and color Doppler ultrasound results were collected.Risk factors for DVT were analyzed.The receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)was used to determine the cut-off value, area under the curve, sensitivity and specificity.Results:Age, reaction(R)time of blood coagulation factors on thromboelastography(TEG)and fibrinogen degradation products(FDP)were risk factors for DVT with no adjustment of the overall effect of time on coagulation mechanisms.According to time stratified analysis, decreased R time( OR=0.58, 95% CI: 0.40-0.84)and increased FDP( OR=1.17, 95% CI: 1.02-1.33)within 3 days of onset were risk factors for DVT, and the cut-off values were 5.35 min and 0.39 mg/L, respectively; 3 and 7 days after onset, increased D-dimer was a risk factor for DVT( OR=2.73, 95% CI: 1.53-4.86; OR=2.57, 95% CI: 1.32-5.03), and the cut-off values were 0.39 mg/L and 0.76 mg/L, respectively.Excluding the effects of FDP primary and D-Dimer secondary fibrinolysis, risk factors for DVT within 3 days of onset were decreased R time on TEG and increased age, and all risk factors were not statistically significant 3 days and 7 days after onset( P<0.05). Conclusions:The key factors affecting DVT in patients with severe cerebral infarction are different at different stages.Decreased R time within 3 days of onset is a predictive indicator of DVT.FDP and D-dimer can be used to assess thrombosis, but may not be appropriate as predictive indicators.
RESUMO
Herein, we report a novel sensor to detect trypsin using a purpose-designed fluorescein-labelled peptide with negatively charged carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) modified by acid oxidation. The fluorescence of the fluorescein-labelled peptide was quenched by CNPs. The sensor reacted with trypsin to cleave the peptide, resulting in the release of the dye moiety and a substantial increase in fluorescence intensity, which was dose-and time-dependent, and trypsin could be quantified accordingly. Correspondingly, the biosensor has led to the development of a convenient and efficient fluorescent method to measure trypsin activity, with a detection limit of 0.7μg/mL. The method allows rapid determination of trypsin activity in the normal and acute pancreatitis range, suitable for point-of-care testing. Furthermore, the applicability of the method has been demonstrated by detecting trypsin in spiked urine samples.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the influencing factors of patients with post-stroke depression (PSD) and study their impact on the quality of life.Methods Fifty-two stroke patients admitted to the First ospital of China Medical University from February 2015 to May 2015 were randomly selected for the study,and these patients did not suffer depression as evaluated by the depression rating scale.Their age,history of diseases,types of diseases,cause of illness,disease area and treatments were collected in detail.These patients were followed up for six month.The mental state was assessed by Hamilton depressive scale (HAMD) and self-rating depressive scale (SDS).The life quality was evaluated by stroke specific quality of life score (SS-QOL) and modified Rankin scale(mRS).These data were selected by stratified sampling method and analyzed by SPSS 17.0 software.Results The incidence of PSD in elder patients (≥ years) was significantly higher than in the younger patients (P ＜ 0.05).Patients with cardiogenic cerebral embolism are more likely to suffer from PSD (P ＜ 0.05).The patients with infarction in different regions have different probability to suffer from PSD.Those patients with cerebral infarction in basal ganglia exhibited more possibility on PSD than others (P ＜ 0.01).Previous disease,including hypertension,diabetes and coronary disease,had no effects on PSD.There were no significant effects of stroke types and thrombolytic therapy on PSD.PSD had an unfavorable effect on the life quality of the patients.Conclusion The patients with cerebral infarction in basal ganglia,aged over sixty and cardiogenic cerebral embolism are prone to PSD,and we should pay more attention to them.PSD has a negative impact on the quality of life of patients.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of video-assisted mini-thoracoscopy(VAMT) for radical resection of lung cancer.Methods From April 2002 to December 2008,radical resection of lung cancer was performed on 39 patients by VMAT in our hospital.A 1.5-cm and a 7-to 10-cm incision were made during the operation.Both standard surgical instruments and thoracoscopic set were used to treat the pulmonary vessels,perform lobectomy,and remove the lymph nodes in the mediastinum and pulmonary portal.Results The operation was completed in all of the cases.No peri-operative death occurred.The patients received chest drainage for 4 to 7 days after the operation(mean,4.5 days).Post-operative pathological examination showed primary non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC) in 37 cases,metastatic cancer in 1,and carcinoid in 1.In the 37 patients with NSCLC,9 were stage Ⅰa,13 were Ⅰb,5 were Ⅱa,7 were Ⅱb,2 were Ⅲa,and 1 was Ⅲb.Follow-up was available in 35 patients for up to 2 to 12 months in 4,13 to 24 months in 15,25 to 36 months in 8,37 to 48 months in 6,and 49 to 60 months in 2 cases.Among the 35 cases,totally 4 patients died of tumor recurrence or metastasis,1 patient survived with tumor,and the other 30 survived without tumor.The 1-and 3-year survival rate of stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ were 100%(21/21) and 91%(10/11) respectively.All of the 3 stage Ⅲ patients died of recurrence or metastasis in 19,11,and 14 months respectively after the surgery.Conclusions VAMT is effective for radical resection of lung cancer in a short term.Combination of traditional procedure and VAMT is safe and reliable for the disease.
