Prognostic evaluation of cardiac markers in early diagnosis of cardiac dysfunction in sepsis / 实用医学杂志

Objective To study the application value of myocardial markers combined with BNP in the early diagnosis of cardiac dysfunction in patients with sepsis. Methods diagnosed patients 66 cases as the research object of this paper,on the basis of 3~5 days in 66 patients with left ventricular ejection fraction after admission of LVEF > 50% and LVEF 50%and LVEF<50%two groups:3,5 days when the BNP value was significantly higher than that of non cardiac injury heart injury;cardiac injury group EF was negatively correlated with TNI value ,value and blood 3~5 days EF troponin levels in patients admitted to hospital after the show was negatively correlated;the concentration of EF and patients admitted to the hospital after twelfth days of blood troponin value is displayed as a negative correlation. TNI can directly reflect the cardiac function of patients. Research shows that the BNP value had a significant positive correlation in fifth days and APACHE Ⅱ score. Conclusion the data show that TNI and BNP can directly reflect the sepsis patients with heart dysfunction ,that BNP combined with TNI can effectively evaluate the clinical treatment of severe sepsis and septic shock patients ,prognosis has high significance.

The serum levels of adiponectin and the prognosis study in septic patients / 实用医学杂志

Objective To investigate the relationship between the serum adiponectin levels and prognosis of septic patients, by detecting the serum levels of adiponectin in septic patients. Methods 110 septic patients and 100 healthy controls subjects were enrolled. The serum levels of adiponectin were measured and compared. Clinical data and outcomes of septic patients were analyzed multi-factor Logistic regression analysis were used. Results The serum levels of adiponectin in septic patients were lower than that in healthy controls (P < 0.05). Serum levels of adiponectin in death group was lower than that in sepsis survival group (P < 0.05). There were close correlations between age, MODS, adiponectin and sepsis death(P < 0.05), which were the independent risk factors of death in septic patients. Conclusion The lower the adiponectin level is, the higher mortality rate occurs.Adiponectin can be used as the indicators of patients′ prognosis.

Reverse effect of losartan on myocardial fibrosis and left ventricular hypertrophy in treatment of essential hypertensive patients / 中国临床药理学与治疗学

AIM: To investigate the effects of losartan on myocardial fibrosis and left ventricular hypertrophy in hypertensive patients. METHODS: 35 essential hypertensive patients with left ventricular hypertrophy were treated with losartan 50-100 mg for 6 mon. Before and after the treatment, serum procollagen typeⅢ (PCⅢ), laminin (LN), and hyaluronic acid (HA) were measured by radioimmunoassay; and left ventricular mass index (LVMI) was determined with ultrasonic cardiogram. RESULTS: After treatment with losartan: the serum levels of PCⅢ, LN, HA, and LVMI were all decreased (P
