ABSTRACT
Objective:To analyze the correlation between serum uric acid and clinical features of patients with novel coronavirus pneumonia(COVID-19).Methods:A total of 200 patients with COVID-19 admitted to Wuhan Lei Shen Shan hospital from January 20, 2020 to April 10, 2020 were included in this retrospective cohort study. The patients were divided into the hyperuricemia group and the non-hyperuricemia group. The data of patients were collected through electronic medical record system. SPSS 19.0 and Graphpad Prism 8.0 statistical software were used to compare clinical features, laboratory results, survival time, and prognosis of patients between hyperuricemia and non-hyperuricemia groups.Results:Compared with the non-hyperuricemia group, the hyperuricemia group showed a higher BMI and mortality( P<0.05)as well as higher white blood cell count, lymphocytes, serum creatinine, creatine kinase, cystatin C, myoglobin, interleukin(IL)-6 levels( P<0.05). Serum uric acid level was positively correlated with lymphocytes, hemoglobin, albumin, creatinine, creatine kinase, cystatin C, D-dimer levels while negatively correlated with IL-2 receptor and IL-8. The patients with hyperuricemia had significantly shorter survival time and worse prognosis than those without hyperuricemia( P=0.04). Conclusion:COVID-19 patients with hyperuricemia show higher mortality and worse prognosis compared with the patients with non-hyperuricemia.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the diagnosis,therapeutic method and choice of operative opportunity in patients with acute cholangitis.Method s We conducted a retrospective analysis of 142 patients with AC treated in our hospital from 2006 to 2010,of all acute cholangitis of severe type occurring in 34 patients.Results The cure rate of surgery group was much better than non-surgery group,and the death rate of emergency surgery group was much lower than elective surgery group.Conclusion The surgical treatment given to the patients with AC,especially ACST in early,was the effective method to cure thoroughly and decrease the mortality rate.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the causes of deep vein thrombosis in lower extremities (DVT). Meth-ods Retrospective analysis of 411 patients with DVT being treated in our hospital from 2004 to 2009. Results 301 (73.2%) cases were with definite causes and 110( 26.8%) cases without definite causes. 195 cases occurred follow-ing operations and 68 cases following wounds and fractures. 122 cases accompanied with medical conditions ,50 cases occurred following pregnancy or child birth,39 cases suffered from cancer, 19 cases suffered from infection of lower extremity or local lesion,67 cases had past history of DVT. Conclusions Suggest that surgery, wound and fractures, postpartum, cancer, chronic illness inducing long-term bed stay and past history of DVT might correlate with DVT.
