Risk-factor analysis and predictive-model development of acute kidney injury in inpatients administered cefoperazone-sulbactam sodium and mezlocillin-sulbactam sodium: a single-center retrospective study.

Objective: Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a common adverse reaction observed with the clinical use of cefoperazone-sulbactam sodium and mezlocillin-sulbactam sodium. Based upon real-world data, we will herein determine the risk factors associated with AKI in inpatients after receipt of these antimicrobial drugs, and we will develop predictive models to assess the risk of AKI. Methods: Data from all adult inpatients who used cefoperazone-sulbactam sodium and mezlocillin-sulbactam sodium at the First Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University between January 2018 and December 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. The data were collected through the inpatient electronic medical record (EMR) system and included general information, clinical diagnosis, and underlying diseases, and logistic regression was exploited to develop predictive models for the risk of AKI. The training of the model strictly adopted 10-fold cross-validation to validate its accuracy, and model performance was evaluated employing receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and the areas under the curve (AUCs). Results: This retrospective study comprised a total of 8767 patients using cefoperazone-sulbactam sodium, of whom 1116 developed AKI after using the drug, for an incidence of 12.73%. A total of 2887 individuals used mezlocillin-sulbactam sodium, of whom 265 developed AKI after receiving the drug, for an incidence of 9.18%. In the cohort administered cefoperazone-sulbactam sodium, 20 predictive factors (p < 0.05) were applied in constructing our logistic predictive model, and the AUC of the predictive model was 0.83 (95% CI, 0.82-0.84). In the cohort comprising mezlocillin-sulbactam sodium use, nine predictive factors were determined by multivariate analysis (p < 0.05), and the AUC of the predictive model was 0.74 (95% CI, 0.71-0.77). Conclusion: The incidence of AKI induced by cefoperazone-sulbactam sodium and mezlocillin-sulbactam sodium in hospitalized patients may be related to the combined treatment of multiple nephrotoxic drugs and a past history of chronic kidney disease. The AKI-predictive model based on logistic regression showed favorable performance in predicting the AKI of adult in patients who received cefoperazone-sulbactam sodium or mezlocillin-sulbactam sodium.

Effect of thymalfasin on the immune function and inflammatory response in patients with severe pneumonia / 中国基层医药

Objective@#To explore the clinical efficacy of thymalfasin on the immune function and inflammatory response in the treatment of patients with severe pneumonia.@*Methods@#From June 2015 to June 2018, 86 patients with severe pneumonia in the Hospital of Zhejiang Provincial General Team of Armed Police were enrolled in the study.According to different treatment methods, they were divided into control group and treatment group, with 43 cases in each group.The control group was treated with cefoperazone/sulbactam sodium on the basis of conventional treatment.The treatment group was treated with thymalfasin on the basis of the treatment of the control group.The expression of monocyte human leukocyte antigen-DR (mHLA-DR), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels were measured before and after treatment.At the same time, CD4+, CD8+, CD4+/CD8+ before and after treatment were examined in the two groups.The efficacy and bacterial clearance rate of the two groups were evaluated.The adverse reactions were recorded.@*Results@#After treatment, the levels of IL-6 and TNF-α in the two groups were significantly lower than those before treatment [treatment group: (44.9±11.8)ng/L, (42.9±13.1)ng/L vs. (86.5±27.9)ng/L, (79.6±28.6)ng/L, control group: (71.5±14.2)ng/L, (65.9±22.6)ng/L vs. (87.1±28.6)ng/L, (78.8±29.1)ng/L, t=9.005, 7.650, 3.203, 2.295, all P<0.05]. The expression level of mHLA-DR in the treatment group after treatment [(44.8±5.7)%] was significantly higher than that before treatment [(27.1±3.4)%, t=17.487, P=0.000]. The changes of the indicators in the treatment group were significantly better than those in the control group (t=9.447, 5.773, 8.725, all P<0.05). After treatment, the CD4+ level of the two groups were higher than those before treatment, and the CD8+ levels of the two groups were significantly lower than those before treatment, the differences were statistically significant(t=3.050, 3.429, 6.965, 13.327, all P<0.05), and the CD4+/CD8+ of the two groups were significantly increased (t=0.370, 3.314, all P<0.05). The indicators of the treatment group were improved more significantly than the control group (t=4.416, 12.355, 3.089, all P<0.05). The bacterial clearance rate of the treatment group was 88.89% (32/36), which was significantly higher than that of the control group [67.65% (23/34), χ2=4.686, P=0.030]. The clinical efficacy of the treatment group was 93.02%(40/43), which was significantly higher than 76.74%(33/43) of the control group (χ2=6.095, P=0.047). The incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups had no statistically significant difference (χ2=0.212, P=0.645).@*Conclusion@#Thymalfasin in the treatment of patients with severe pneumonia can improve the immune function, reduce the inflammatory response, improve the bacterial clearance rate and clinical efficacy, and will not increase the adverse reactions, so it is worthy of promoting.
