Risk factors and prognosis analysis of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae infection for inpatients in hepatobiliary surgery / 中华肝胆外科杂志

Objective:To explore the risk factors and prognosis of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (CRKP) infection for inpatients in hepatobiliary surgery. Methods:The clinical data of patients with Klebsiella pneumoniae infection admitted to the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, Hunan Provincial People's Hospital from January 2016 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. For each patient with CRKP infection, two patients with non-carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae (non-CRKP) infection were selected for matching. A total of 720 patients with Klebsiella pneumoniae infection were involved, including 444 males and 276 females, aged (58.0±11.6) years old. According to the infection conditions, they were divided into two groups: CRKP group ( n=240) and non-CRKP group ( n=480). The 240 CRKP patients were divided into two subgroups according to their prognosis: death group ( n=34) and survival group ( n=206). The general information, laboratory test results, antibiotic use and infection outcomes of patients were recorded to analyze the risk factors of infection and death after infection. Results:Acute pancreatitis ( OR=3.473, 95% CI: 1.844-6.541), chronic cardiovascular disease before infection ( OR=2.028, 95% CI: 1.228-3.347), chronic renal failure ( OR=1.873, 95% CI: 1.142-3.073), hypoalbuminemia ( OR=3.060, 95% CI: 1.869-5.010), use of carbapenems ( OR=3.882, 95% CI: 2.518-5.985), admission to intensive care unit ( OR=1.783, 95% CI: 1.034-3.075) and surgery within 30 days before infection ( OR=13.463, 95% CI: 7.482-24.223) were independent risk factors for CRKP infection inpatients in hepatobiliary surgery(all P<0.05). Chronic respiratory disease before infection ( OR=3.784, 95% CI: 1.420-10.089), mechanical ventilation ( OR=5.085, 95% CI: 1.436-18.011), disturbance of consciousness ( OR=40.710, 95% CI: 3.564-464.943), hormone therapy ( OR=14.977, 95% CI: 3.819-58.743) and treatment of quinolone antibiotics ( OR=4.102, 95% CI: 1.226-13.726) were independent risk factors for death of inpatients with CRKP infection in hepatobiliary surgery (all P<0.05). The resistance of amikacin, tobramycin, ceftazidime, cefepime, aztreonam, ciprofloxacin, levofloxacin, co-sulfamethoxazole and piperacillin/tazobactamand in CRKP group were significantly different compared with non-CRKP group (all P<0.05). Conclusion:The occurrence of CRKP infection for inpatients in hepatobiliary surgery is related to various factors such as underlying diseases, antibiotic use and self-barrier destruction, and these factors affect the infection outcome of patients.

Objective: To observe the safety of the Song-Relaxing and Zhen-Vibrating abdomen manipulation in treating patients with prediabetes and its effects on blood glucose and lipid metabolism.Methods: One hundred and two patients with prediabetes were divided into a manipulation group and a control group according to the random number table method, with 51 cases in each group. All patients received the general behavioral intervention for prediabetes, with additional Song-Relaxing and Zhen-Vibrating abdomen manipulation in the manipulation group and oral metformin hydrochloride tablets in the control group. Both groups received the intervention for six months. Results: Fourteen patients dropped out during the treatment, and a total of 88 patients completed the trial, including 45 cases in the manipulation group and 43 cases in the control group. After the treatment, the prediabetes control rate was 93.3％ in the manipulation group and 74.4％ in the control group, and the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (P<0.05); no patient in the manipulation group progressed to diabetes, while the rate of conversion to diabetes in the control group was 6.9％, with a significant difference between the two groups (P<0.05). After the treatment, the body mass index (BMI), glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), 2-hour postload plasma glucose (2hPG) level during an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), fasting insulin (FINS), homeostasis model assessment-2 of insulin resistance (HOMA2-IR), total cholesterol (TC), and triglycerides (TG) decreased in both groups versus baseline, with significant differences within the groups; the levels of all indicators were lower in the manipulation group than in the control group (P<0.05), and the differences between the two groups were more prominent at the sixth month (P<0.01). At the sixth month, the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in the manipulation group was increased, while there was no significant change in the control group. In the control group, three patients reported mild gastrointestinal reactions at the initial dosing, which improved after medication adjustment. No other adverse events were observed in either group. Conclusion: Both metformin hydrochloride tablets and the Song-Relaxing and Zhen-Vibrating abdomen manipulation can improve blood glucose and lipid metabolism and reduce insulin resistance and clinical discomfort in patients with prediabetes, but the Song-Relaxing and Zhen-Vibrating abdomen manipulation has higher efficacy and safety.

Role and mechanism of endoplasmic reticulum stress and Ca2+ overload in pulmonary endothelial cell damage induced by heat stress / 解放军医学杂志

Objective To observe the effect of different temperatures on endoplasmic reticulum stress, calcium overload, mitochondria and cell damage in pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMVEC) induced by heat stress, and clarify the mechanism of endothelial cell injury in the process of heat stress to provide experimental basis for clinical prevention and treatment of heat stree. Methods Heat stress model of PMVEC cell was set up. Control group cells were incubated at 37℃, 5%CO2, while heat stress group cells were incubated at 39℃, 41℃, 43℃ for 2h, respectively, then further incubated at 37℃, 5%CO2 for 6h. Pretreatment of cells with 20μmol/L BAPTA-AM or 50μmol/L CsA before heat stress at 43℃. The protein levels of p-PERK, PERK p-eIF2a, eIF2a, ATF4 and GRP78 were analyzed by Western blotting. Intracellular Ca2+, mitochondrial membrane potential and the changes in mitochondrial permeability transition pore were investigated by flow cytometry. The change of caspase-3 was detected by Caspase Assay Kit. Millicell-ERS Volt-Ohm Meter and Accessories was used for determining the changes of transepithelium electrical resistance (TER). Results Compared with the control group, with the increase of heat stress temperature (41-43℃), the phosphorylation of p-PERK and p-eIF2a protein and the expressions of ATF4 and GRP78 proteins were gradually activated, intracellular Ca2+ increased, MPTP pore was opened, mitochondrial membrane potential decreased, cell permeability increased and apoptosis occurred, and it was the most obvious in the 43℃ heat stress group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Pretreatment with Ca2+ inhibitors promoted the recovery of the MPTP hole, mitochondrial membrane potential and cell permeability, and reduced the occurrence of apoptosis. While pretreatment with the mitochondrial protective agent did not reduce the release of Ca2+, but it could promote the recovery of cell permeability and reduce the occurrence of apoptosis. Conclusion Heat stress activates endoplasmic reticulum stress response, induces intracellular Ca2+ overload mediated cell and mitochondrial damages in PMVEC cells, which may be one of the important mechanisms of endothelial cell injury induced by heat stress.

Effects of gradient heat stress on phagocytosis of liver Kupffer cells in vitro / 解放军医学杂志

Objective To investigate the effect of gradient heat stress on phagocytosis of hepatic Kupffer cells (KCs) in vitro in rats. Methods Rat Kupffer cells were isolated in vitro and the temperature for gradient heat stress was set at 37, 39, 41 and 43℃. After thermal stimulation, cell injury was detected by PI and Hochest33342 staining. CCK-8 assay was used to investigate difference in cellular proliferation rate over 24h between the groups. Flow cytometry was used to investigate the influence of heat stress on the phagocytosis of KCs. Results Compared to the normal control group, cells in each heat stress group exhibited varying degrees of damage, especially cells in 43℃ group. The ratio of damage cells increased with the increase of heat stress severity (P<0.05). Proliferation assay indicated that the proliferation rate of cells in each heat stress group was significantly decreased in comparison with normal control group 6h after heat stress (P<0.05). After 12h recovery, decrease in proliferation rate was observed only in 43℃ group (P<0.001), and no difference in the rate of proliferation could be observed between the heat stress groups and normal control group after 24h recovery. Flow cytometry showed, that the phagocytosis of KCs decreased in heat stress groups compared with control group, especially in 43℃ group (P<0.05). This phenomenon disappeared after 24h recovery. Conclusion Heat stress can inhibit the phagocytosis of rat liver KCs through its cytotoxic effect on KCs, and subsequently inhibits its proliferative ability. Further investigation of the effect of heat stress on KCs may help understand the pathogenesis of heat stress.

The role of oxidative stress in the acute liver injury of rats with heat stroke and its mechanism / 解放军医学杂志

Objective To investigate the role of oxidative stress in acute liver injury in a heat stroke model of conscious rats,and to explore its underlying mechanism.Methods Thirty-two rats were randomly (by using a random number table) assigned into a sham-heated control group (Sham group,n=8),a sham-heated group treated with NAC (Sham-NAC group,n=8),a heat stroke group (HS group,n=8) and a heat stoke group treated with NAC (HS-NAC,n=8).Rats were prepared with pre-warm chamber to initiate heat stoke.The change of rectum temperature (Tr),heart rate (HR) and systolic blood pressure (SBP) were monitored,and the time point of HS onset was recorded.Rats were sacrificed 12h after HS onset.ALT,serum TBIL,IL-6,IL-1β,TNF-α,MDA,T-SOD and GSH in the liver homogenates were measured.Liver tissues were harvested for determining the concentration of reactive oxygen species (ROS),neutrophil infiltration and the histological changes.Results During HS onset,no significant differences were observed in Tr,HR,SBP and heat exposure time between HS group and HS-NAC group (P＞0.05).However,the survival time was significantly longer in HS-NAC group than in HS group (P=0.039).12 hours after HS onset,the concentrations of ROS and MDA in the liver homogenates were significantly higher in HS group than in the other groups (P=0.000),while the concentrations of T-SOD and GSH were much lower than in the other groups (P=0.000).The serum concentrations of ALT and TBIL were significantly higher in HS group than in the other groups (P=0.000).Compare with HS group,the pathological injury was alleviated in HS-NAC group (P=0.000).The neutrophil infiltration level and the concentrations of IL-6,IL-1 β and TNF-α in liver tissue were significantly higher in HS group than in HS-NAC group (P=0.000).Conclusion Oxidative stress may play an important role in the pathogenesis of HS liver injury through its cytotoxic effect and by inducing inflammatory responses.

Protective effects of heat shock protein 70 on the acute lung injury of rats with heat stroke and its mechanism / 解放军医学杂志

Objective To investigate the protective effect of heat shock protein (HSP) 70 on the acute lung injury (ALI) of rats with heat stroke.Methods Sixty four rats were randomly (by employing a random number table) assigned into a sham-heated group (Sham group),heat stress group (HS group),and HS plus gluttamine treatment group (HS+GLN group) and HS plus quercet in treatment group (HS+QU group),16 each.All rats were housed in a artificial climate chamber,with the rats in the sham groups exposed to a temperature of 23 ℃ and humidity of 55％ ± 5％,while the rats of HS,HS+GLN and HS+QU groups to an ambient temperature of 39 ℃ and humidity of 65％.During heat stress or sham heating,rectal temperature (Tr),systolic blood pressure (SBP) and pulse rate (PR) were monitored to observe the difference in heat stress response among the groups.The time point at which the SBP started to drop from the peak level was taken as the point of HS onset.At the onset of HS,heat exposure was terminated,then the rats were immediately removed from the chamber,and returned to room temperature.The rats were scarified 0h and 6h after HS onset respectively.After bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was collected,the lungs of all animals were harvested for pathological examination of lung injury.The concentrations of IL-1β,TNF-α and IL-6 in BALF and HSP70 in lung homogenate were measured by using an enzyme linked immunosorbent assay kit.Results Compared with HS and HS+QU groups,the rats in HS+GLN group required significantly greater heat load to induce HS (P＜0.001),and had longer survival time span after HS onset.Compared with Sham group,the concentration of HSP70 in lung homogenate in HS group increased in a time-dependent manner (P＜0.001).In comparison with HS group,the concentration of HSP70 in lung homogenate from HS+GLN group was significantly elevated at each time point (P＜0.001),while the treatment with QU significantly inhibited the expression of HSP70 (P＜0.001).The concentration of IL-1β,TNF-α and IL-6 in BALF significantly decreased in HS+GLN group compared with those in HS group and HS+QU group (P＜0.001).The pathological results showed that the lung injury was milder in HS+GLN group,while the opposite in HS+QU group.Conclusion HSP70 could protect HS rats against ALI by enhancing their thermo-tolerance and inhibiting inflammatory response.

Progresses in understanding trauma-induced coagulopathy and the underlying mechanism / 中华创伤杂志(英文版)

Trauma-induced coagulopathy (TIC) is a clinical syndrome caused by imbalance between clotting, anti-coagulation and fibrinolysis resulting from multiple pathological factors such as hemorrhage and tissue injury in the early stage of trauma, and is closely related to the outcome of trauma patients. It is proved in growing evidence that the endogenous coagulation disturbance in trauma itself is the activating factor of TIC, rather than dilution or other acquired coagulopathy. Therefore, a thorough understanding of the molecular mechanisms in the pathogenesis and progression is crucial for effective prevention and treatment in patients with TIC. This review focuses on transitions in the concept of TIC and mechanical progress.
