RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate serum complement C1q tumor necrosis factor related proteins-3 (CTRP-3) and D-dimer (D-D) in predicting hyperacute transformation after thrombolysis in patients with cerebral infarction, and their correlation with brain injury.Methods:One hundred and sixty patients with cerebral infarction admitted in our hospital from August 2016 to August 2019 were enrolled in the study. The hyperacute transformation occurred in 29 cases after intravenous thrombolysis (occurrence group) and did not occur in 131 cases (non-occurrence group). The serum CTRP-3, D-D levels and other factors that may cause hyperacute transformation were compared between the occurrence group and the non-occurrence group. Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the risk factors of cerebral hemorrhage. The predictive values of serum CTRP-3 and D-D for hyperacute transformation in patients with cerebral infarction were analyzed with receiver operating characteristic (ROC)curve. The correlation between serum CTRP-3, D-D and brain injury was analyzed by Pearson correlation coefficient method.Results:The National Institute of Health stroke scale (NIHSS) score [(18.6±2.2) points vs. (14.0±2.1) points, t=10.62, P<0.01], proportion of infarct diameter >5 cm [69.0%(20/29) vs. 39.7%(52/131), χ 2=8.22, P<0.01], trial fibrillation rate[72.4%(21/29) vs. 44.3%(59/131), χ 2=7.52, P<0.01], and serum D-D levels [(3.02±0.31) mg/L vs. (2.24±0.23) mg/L, t=15.44, P<0.01] of the occurrence group were significantly higher than those of the non-occurrence group; while the serum CTRP-3 levels were lower than those of the non-occurrence group [(251.3±26.9) μg/L vs. (285.7±29.2) μg/L, t=5.82, P<0.01], the onset-to-needle time (OTN) was longer than that of the non-onset group [(4.61±0.43) h vs. (2.96±0.52) h, t=15.91, P<0.01]. Logistic regression analysis showed that pre-thrombosis NIHSS ( OR=1.69, 95 %CI: 1.02-2.15, P<0.01), proportion of infarct diamete r>5 cm ( OR=3.73, 95 %CI: 1.96-5.10, P=0.001), atrial fibrillation ( OR=2.14, 95 %CI: 1.25-2.96, P<0.01), OTN ( OR=3.44, 95 %CI: 1.85-5.02, P<0.01), serum DD ( OR=2.37, 95 %CI: 1.56-3.30, P<0.01) and serum CTRP-3 ( OR=2.9 d, 95 %CI: 1.91-4.25, P<0.01) were risk factors for hyperacute transformation in patients with cerebral infarction. ROC results showed that the area under the curve (AUC) of CTRP-3 and D-D for predicting hyperacute transformation in patients with cerebral infarction were 0.723 and 0.796, respectively; and the AUC of the combination of two indicators was 0.823. The anterior cerebral infarction occurred in 28 cases, the posterior cerebral infarction occured in 132 cases. The NIHSS score were(18.7±2.1)points and (14.0±1.9)points,respectively,and the modified Rankin Scale(mRS) score were(3.8±0.5)points and(3.2±0.6) points. Pearson correlation analysis showed that the serum CTRP-3 was negatively correlated with the NIHSS score of brain damage in patients with anterior circulation cerebral infarction ( r=-0.72, P<0.01), and the correlation was less strong with the NIHSS score in patients with posterior circulation cerebral infarction ( r=-0.35, P<0.01). The serum D-D was strongly positively correlated with NIHSS score of brain damage in patients with anterior circulation cerebral infarction ( r=0.88, P<0.01), and it was less strong with NIHSS score in patients with posterior circulation cerebral infarction ( r=0.24, P<0.01). The serum CTRP-3 was strongly positively correlated with brain injury mRS score ( r=0.80, P<0.01), and serum D-D was strongly negatively correlated with brain injury mRS score ( r=-0.76, P<0.01). Conclusion:The combined detection of serum CTRP-3 and D-D has a high predictive value for the occurrence of cerebral hemorrhage in hyperacute transformation after thrombolysis in patients with cerebral infarction, and two indicators have a certain correlation with brain injury of patients.
RESUMO
Objective A three-dimensional （3D） printing precise pressure device was designed specifically targeted at cambered limbs according to the requirement of postoperative rehabilitation of total knee replacement(TKR), and its effectiveness and safety was verified by finite element analysis. Methods Based on gastrocnemius muscle of lower limbs as the pressurized objects, the precise pressure device was designed, which contained an air pressure generating module, an inflatable airbag and a 3D printing brace. Through the closed loop control algorithm, the device stably supplied different pressures in the airbag. Distributed pressure data of the airbag-skin within contact surface were collected under different experimental conditions and imported into biomechanical simulation software which combined CT images to reconstruct 3D model of the lower limb mechanics. Finally, the effective compression area fraction and the joint micro-motion angle under each condition were obtained, to verify the effectiveness and safety of the system. Results Using generally preferred 4 cm-size offset and 4-barrel airbag configurations, under different intracapsular pressure of 5.32，6.65，7.98，9.31，10.64 kPa, the simulated knee joint micro-motion angles were 5.3°, 6.1°, 7.2°, 9.5°, 10.6°， respectively, and the effective compression area fraction could be up to 90-8%-95-2%. Conclusions For the optimized scheme, the dynamic range of joint micro-motion angle and the effective compression area fraction caused by different airbag pressure values were the best and met the design requirements of effectiveness and safety. The research findings can contribute to analyzing the influence of compression system on limb biomechanics, which are of great significance for effective and safe rehabilitation training after TKR.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the effect of magnetic resonance thoracic ductography (MRTD)in the diagnosis of right thoracic duct.Methods MRTD data were analyzed retrospective,and the detection rate of right thoracic duct was summarized and compared with that of lymphoscintigraphy,direct lymphangiography and operation.Results 12 cases of right thoracic duct were detected in 1547 cases of MRTD.The detection rate was 0.78%,in which 1 case was complied with total internal organs inversion,and 1 case with right aortic arch.Lymphoscintigraphy were performed in all 12 cases and right thoracic duct were detected in 4 cases.Direct lymphangiography were performed in 4 cases and right thoracic duct were observed in all of them.7 cases of them received right lum-bar duct adhesiolysis.Conclusion MRTD is a noninvasive method for diagnosis of right thoracic duct,which providing useful guid-ance for surgical operation.Its detection rate and diagnostic accuracy are higher than those of lymphoscintigraphy.
RESUMO
Objective Hypoalbuminemia is a typical symptom of nephrotic syndrome ( NS) , which may result from the loss of much protein with urine.Hyperbilirubinemia is also a common symptom in patients with NS.This study is intended to reveal the relationship between hypoalbuminemia and hyperbilirubinemia in patients with NS by investigating urine bilirubin, albumin( ALB ) and 24-hour urine protein in the NS group, chronic glomerulonephritis ( CGN ) group and postoperative gastroparesis syndrome ( PGS) group ( ALB0.05) .Conclusion Serum bilirubin of patients with NS is at a low level and shows significant correlations with serum albumin and urinary protein levels.No similar association is found with the other two groups.The results in this study show that the causes of low serum bilirubin in patients with NS may related to the large amount of protein lost in urine.
RESUMO
A recombinant strain Escherichia coli DH5alpha(pMD19-glnA) including Bacillus subtilis glnA gene was constructed. Capillary electrophoresis and nuclear magnetic resonance were used to determine qualitatively the product of transformation by recombinant strain, and the relative level of mRNA expression of glnA was also determined by fluorescence quantitative RT-PCR. Subsequently, SDS-PAGE (polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis) was used to analysis the relative level of protein. Surprisingly, there was no increase of glutamine production in this recombinant strain, but an obvious increase in the GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid ) production. It was showed in the experiment that protein expression of the glutamine synthetase did not increase, although glnA gene can be transcribed normally in this recombined strain. The phenomenon of exogenous glnA gene interfering metabolism of Escherichia coli was worthy of further study.
