RESUMO
Objective To investigate the expression of cardiac troponin-Ⅰ (cTnⅠ) levels in patients diagnosed with sepsis-associated myocardial dysfunction and explore the relationship between cTn Ⅰ and cardiac systolic and diastolic function.Additionally,we evaluated the prognostic value of cTn Ⅰ as a valuable biomarker.Methods We admitted 65 patients with sepsis.Using echocardiography,the ratio of early diastolic mitral inflow velocity to early diastolic mitral annulus velocity (E/e') and the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were measured as an evaluation index of left ventricular diastolic and systolic function,respectively.Patients were divided into a cardiac dysfunction and a normal cardiac function group.The cTn Ⅰ level was measured and compared between the two groups,and we determined the correlation between cTn Ⅰ levels and cardiac diastolic and systolic function.Based on assessment of 28-day mortality,cases were divided into a survivor and a death group.A receiver operating characteristic curve was constructed to predict the prognostic value of cTn Ⅰ.Results The cTn Ⅰ level in the cardiac dysfunction group was significantly higher than that observed in the normal cardiac function group (P ＜ 0.05) and showed a positive correlation with E/e'(r =0.421,P =0.008).However,there was no correlation noted between the cTn Ⅰ level and LVEF (P ＞ 0.05).Compared to the survivor group,the level of cTn]Ⅰ was significantly higher in the death group (P ＜ 0.05).The prognostic value of cTn Ⅰ area under the curve was 0.892,with a cut-off value of 0.82 ng/mL (sensitivity =88.0％ and specificity =82.5％).Conclusion The cTn Ⅰ level is noted to be significantly elevated in patients with sepsis-associated cardiac dysfunction and shows a positive correlation with left ventricular diastolic function.A cTn Ⅰ level ≥ 0.82 ng/mL can be used as a valuable predictor of mortality in patients with sepsis.
RESUMO
Objective To produce a new type of medical bed sheet suitable for hemodialysis .Methods Application effect of traditional methods compared hemostatic clamp fixed cycle trail tube with the use of dialysis sheets fixed cycle trail tube method in hemodialysis .Results Dialysis sheets of reasonable structure setting has the advantages of convenience and practicality than using sterilized forceps traditional fixed mode .The adaptability is strong, and preparation cost is low .The fixing device and the sheets are fixed as a whole , without also prepare disin-fection clamp fixed cycle trail tube , not circulating blood road pipe clamp bad , and put an end to the sheets caused by repeated clamping forceps to damage , and can be used as a piece of goods one -time cleaning and disinfection .Con-clusion The standard of energy saving and consumption reduction is achieved by dialysis bed sheets , which can a-chieve the goal of controlling and improving the quality of medical care .
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the clinical significance of expression of P53,Ki67 in proliferation,invasion and metastasis of cancer cells of patients with esophageal carcinoma.Methods Eighty-six patients with esophageal carcinoma were selected as tumor group from January 2006 to May 2008.And another 86 patients without tumor were as control group.ABC-immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of P53 and Ki67 in 172 cases of patients with esophageal carcinoma.Results The expression of P53 in patients with esophageal carcinoma was different from that in control subjects (x2 =4.045,P ＜ 0.05),and the P53 expression rate in two group were 66.3％ (57/86) and 51.1％ (44/86) respectively.The rate of P53 expression reaching to + + in two groups was also significant (x2 =8.592,P ＜ 0.01).Ki67 expression in patients with esophageal carcinoma was higher than that of control patients (76.7％ (66/86) vs.60.5％ (82/86),x2 =5.291,P ＜ 0.05).Additionally,there was significant difference regarding of Ki6 expression reaching to + + positive(x2 =13.661,P ＜ 0.01).Moreover,the expression of P53 and Ki67 were found to be a positively correlation(r =0.400,P =0.00).The expression of P53 and Ki67 were related with invasion and differentiation of cancer cells (x2 =3.945,5.794 respectively,all P ＜ 0.05) and lymph node metastasis (x2 =5.570,4.354 respectively,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Over-expression of P53 and Ki67 were involved in the process of proliferation,invasion and metastasis of cancer cells in esophageal carcinoma,which coherently impacted the occurrence and development of esophageal cancer.The combined detection of P53 and Ki67 seems to help the early diagnosis of esophageal cancer and evaluation of the degree of malignancy,invasion,metastasis and prognosis.Over-expression of P53,Ki67 might be served as a reference marker in screening for chemotherapy for esophageal cancer.
