Objective To investigate the predictive value of lactate/albumin ratio(LAR),interleukin-6(IL-6)and CD4+T lymphocyte count in 28-day mortality in patients with severe pneumonia and sepsis.Methods A total of 73 patients with severe pneumonia and sepsis admitted to the Respiratory Intensive Care Unit(RICU)of Zhengzhou Central Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from January 2022 to June 2023 were enrolled and divided into the survival group(n=43)and the death group(n=30)according to their 28-day outcomes.The clinical data of the patients were collected from their electronic medical records,including age,gender,comorbidities with hypertension,diabetes,and coronary artery heart disease(CHD),as well as sequential organ failure assessment(SOFA)score,acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ(APACHE Ⅱ)score,mean arterial pressure(MAP),confusion,uremia,respiratory rate,blood pressure,age ≥65 years(CURB-65)score,total bilirubin(Tbil),serum creatinine(Scr),platelet count(PLT),white blood cell(WBC)count,procalcitonin(PCT),and C-reactive protein(CRP)at admission to RICU.On the 1st,3rd,and 7th day after admission to RICU,the patients'arterial blood was drawn,and the lactate level was detected by a fully automated blood gas analyzer.The peripheral venous blood was drawn,and the serum albumin and IL-6 levels were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay,and the CD4+T lymphocyte subset count was measured by flow cytometry.The LAR of patients on the 1st,3rd and 7th day was calculated.The clinical data of the patients and the LAR,IL-6 level and CD4+T lymphocyte count on the 1st,3rd,and 7th day were compared between the two groups.The influencing factors of 28-day mortality in patients with severe pneumonia and sepsis were analyzed by logistic regression,and the predictive value of each influencing factor on the 28-day mortality in patients with severe pneumonia and sepsis was evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve.Results There was no significant difference in gender,age,proportions of comorbidities with hypertension,diabetes and CHD,length of stay in RICU,and Tbil,MAP,PLT,Scr,WBC,PCT and CRP at admission to RICU(P＞0.05).The APACHE Ⅱ and CURB-65 scores of the patients in the death group were significantly higher than those in the survival group(P＜0.05).On the 1st,3rd and 7th day,the CD4+T lymphocyte count in the death group was significantly lower than that in the survival group,while the SOFA score was significantly higher than that in the survival group(P＜0.05).On the first day,there was no significant difference in the LAR and IL-6 level be-tween the death group and the survival group(P＞0.05).However,on the 3rd and 7th day,the LAR and IL-6 level in the death group were significantly higher than those in the survival group(P＜0.05).The LAR,IL-6 level and SOFA score on the 3rd and 7th day in the survival group were significantly lower than those on the 1st day,and these indicators on the 7th day were sig-nificantly lower than those on the 3rd day(P＜0.05);the CD4+T lymphocyte count on the 3rd and 7th day was significantly higher than that on the 1st day(P＜0.05),while it showed no significant difference on the 7th and 3r day(P＞0.05).The IL-6 level on the 7th day in the death group was significantly lower than that on the 1st and 3rd day(P＜0.05),while there was no significant difference in IL-6 level on the 1st day compared with the 3r day(P＞0.05);moreover,there was no significant difference in LAR,CD4+T lymphocyte count and SOFA score between each time point(P＞0.05).Pearson correlation analy-sis showed that on the 3rd day,the LAR and IL-6 level were significantly positively correlated with the SOFA score in patients with severe pneumonia and sepsis(r=0.385,0.394;P＜0.05).On the 7th day,the LAR and IL-6 level were also significantly positively correlated with the SOFA score(r=0.418,0.402;P＜0.05).On the 3 rd and 7 th day,CD4+T lymphocyte count was significantly negatively correlated with the SOFA score(r=-0.451,-0.454;P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that the APACHE Ⅱ score,LAR,IL-6 level and CD4+T lymphocyte count on the 3rd day,and the IL-6 level and CD4+T lym-phocyte count on the 7th day were the influencing factors for 28-day mortality in patients with severe pneumonia and sepsis(P＜0.05).The ROC curve showed that the APACHE Ⅱ score,LAR,IL-6 level and CD4+T lymphocyte count on the 3rd day and the combination of the three,IL-6 level and CD4+T lymphocyte count on the 7th day and the combination of the two had certain predictive value for the 28-day mortality in patients with severe pneumonia and sepsis(P＜0.05).The area under the ROC curve(AUC)of LAR,IL-6 level and CD4+T lymphocyte count on the 3rd day combined to predict 28-day mortality in patients with severe pneumonia and sepsis was 0.891,and the AUC of APACHE Ⅱ score for predicting 28-day mortality in pa-tients with severe pneumonia and sepsis was 0.769.The AUC values of LAR,IL-6 level and CD4+T lymphocyte count on the 3rd day for predicting 28-day mortality in patients with severe pneumonia and sepsis were 0.795,0.757 and 0.770,respective-ly,and the AUC values of IL-6 level and CD4+T lymphocyte count on the 7th day and their combination for predicting 28-day mortality in patients with severe pneumonia and sepsis were 0.743,0.802 and 0.888,respectively.Conclusion The 3-day LAR,IL-6 level and CD4+T lymphocyte count,and the 7-day IL-6 level and CD4+T lymphocyte count after admission are re-lated to the 28-day mortality in patients with severe pneumonia and sepsis.The combined LAR,IL-6 level and CD4+T lympho-cyte count on the 3rd day can better assess the severity and prognosis of patients.

Objective To evaluate the prognosis value of plasma soluble vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (sFlt-1) combined with extravascular lung water index (EVLWI) in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) complicated with septic shock caused by severe pneumonia. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted in Respiratory Intensive Care Unit of the Affiliated Zhengzhou Central Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2015 to July 2017. The study included 52 severe pneumonia patients with ARDS complicated with septic shock, who was performed by measurement of pulse index continuous cardiac output (PICCO) and survived more than 3 days after admission. According to the 28-day mortality, these patients were divided into the survival group (31 cases) and the death group (21 cases). PICCO was used to record the EVLWI level. The plasma level of sFlt-1 was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHE II) score and sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score were calculated. Independent risk factors were analyzed by multiple logistic regression. Correlation analysis between plasma sFlt-1 and EVLWI and APACHE II values was performed on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd day after admission. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) was calculated, and the prognostic value of each parameter was assessed. Results The blood lactate, APACHE II score and SOFA score in the death group were significantly higher than those in the survival group at RICU admission (P<0.05), and the length of RICU stay was significantly shorter than that in the survival group (P<0.05), while differences in other clinical characteristics between the two groups were not statistically significant. The levels of EVLWI, sFlt-1 and blood lactate, APACHE II score and SOFA score in the death group were significantly higher than those in the survival group on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd day (all P<0.05), whereas the PaO2/FiO2 was significantly lower than that of the survival group on the 2nd and 3rd day (all P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that sflt-1 level and EVLWI were significantly related with the patient mortality. The levels of sFlt-1 on day 1, 2 and 3 after RICU admission were positively related to EVLWI and APACHE II score (all P<0.01). The sensitivity and specificity of sFlt-1 combined with EVLWI in prognosis evaluation were 89.7％, 78.2％ and 86.3％, 75.7％, respectively. The AUC of sFlt-1 combined with EVLWI was 0.875 and 0.856 on the 1st and 3rd day, respectively (all P<0.01), which had a better prognostic value than each of them. Conclusions SFlt-1 could be used as a biomarker of mortality for severe pneumonia patients with ARDS complicated with septic shock. The combination of sFlt-1 and EVLWI might be important in early prediction of the prognosis of the 28-day mortality in patients with ARDS complicated with septic shock caused by severe pneumonia.

Vam3 is a potential pharmacologically active ingredient isolated from Vitis amurensis Rupr. A rapid, simple and sensitive method to determine Vam3 levels in rat plasma and tissue was developed based on LC-MS/MS. Vam3 and an internal standard (IS) were chromatographed on a C18 short column with acetonitrile-0.1% formic acid in water by gradient elution. MS detection was performed by electrospray ionization in negative ion multiple reaction-monitoring modes. This method monitored the transitions m/z 451.0→345.0 and m/z 301.0→164.0 for Vam3 and IS, respectively. The calibration curve was linear over a concentration range of 1.64-1000 ng/mL. The inter-day and intra-day variabilities in precision was less than 12.8%, while the inter-day and intra-day accuracies ranged from -10.60% to 9.08% in plasma and tissue homogenates. This method was applied to investigate the pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of Vam3 in rats. The results indicated that Vam3 had poor absorption into systemic circulation and extensive tissue distribution after oral administration, and the absolute bioavailability was low (0.79%). Vam3 had a relatively long terminal elimination half-life in lung, and the highest concentration was found in small intestinal tissue. The developed method and the pharmacokinetic data can provide a basis for further studies on the bioactivity of Vam3.

METHODS:Total y 160 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups:control group, model group, cytokine treatment group, cytokine control group. Rat models of unilateral renal ischemia-reperfusion injury were established in the model and cytokine treatment groups. Rats in the cytokine treatment group and cytokine control group received subcutaneous injection of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (50μg/kg) and stem cellfactor (200μg/kg), once a day, for 5 continuous days. Rats in the model and control groups had no treatment. Apoptotic cells were detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling method, and the expression of CD34-positive cells, Caspase-3, Bcl-2, proliferating cellnuclear antigen in the kidney were measured using immunohistochemistry staining. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The number of CD34-positive cells in renal tissue of the cytokine treatment group was significantly higher than that of the control group and model group (P<0.05). The apoptotic index and expression of Capase-3 in the model group and cytokine treatment group were higher than those in the control group and cytokine control group (P<0.05). The apoptotic index and expression of Capase-3 in the cytokine treatment group were lower than that in the model group (P<0.05). The expression of Bcl-2 in the model group and cytokine treatment group was higher than that in the control group and cytokine control group (P<0.05). The expression of Bcl-2 in the cytokine treatment group was higher than that in the model group (P<0.05);however, as time went on, Bcl-2 expression was obviously decreased. Proliferating cellnuclear antigen expressed both in the model group and in the cytokine treatment group. Additional y, the proliferative index reached peak at 24 days in the model group, and then decreased gradual y;while in the cytokine treatment group, it reached the peak at 10 days, maintained a high level until the 17th day, and then decreased gradual y. Mobilization of autologous bone marrow stem cells by combination of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor and stem cellfactor can increase proliferation and decrease apoptosis of renal tubular epithelial cells after renal ischemia-reperfusion injury, and thus, promote the recovery from renal tubular injury.

@#Objective To explore the effects of skill-training on social function in patients with schizophrenia recession. Methods 60 patientswith schizophrenia recession were divided into 2 equal groups (n=30) for 1-year treatment. The control group was treated only withdrugs, and the treatment group was treated with skill-training in addition. The patients were assessed with the Scale of Social Skill of ChronicSchizophrenic Inpatients (SSSI) and the Positive and Negative Symptom Scale (PANSS) before, 6 months and 12 months after treatment.Results The total scores of PANSS decreased significantly in the treatment group compared with the control group (P<0.01). The scores ofSSSI decreased significantly in the treatment group after treatment. However, there was no significant differences in the control group (P>0.05) 6 months after treatment, but was 12 months after treatment (P<0.05). Conclusion Based on the medicine treatment, skill-training mayimprove the flinched mental symptom to remain the social function.
