Résumé
Objective@#Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) is one of the severe complications of ischemic stroke thrombolysis. Several prognostic scales have been developed to predict the risk of sICH. The performance of seven scales was compared in a single center cohort.@*Methods@#Data of patients with consecutive ischemic stroke who received 0.9 mg/kg intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) thrombolysis within 4.5 h time window from stroke onset were collected. Seven scales that can provide an estimate of risk of sICH were identified and evaluated: Hemorrhage After Thrombolysis (HAT), blood Sugar, Early infarct signs, (hyper) Dense cerebral artery sign, Age, National Institutes of Health (NIH) Stroke Scale (SEDAN), Stroke Prognostication using Age and NIH Stroke Scale (SPAN)-100, Safe Implementation of Thrombolysis in Stroke (SITS), Total Health Risks In Vascular Events (THRIVE), Glucose at presentation, Race (Asia), Age, Sex (male), systolic blood Pressure at presentation, and Severity of stroke at presentation (NIH Stroke Scale; GRASPS) and Multicenter Stroke Survey (MSS). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) was calculated and Logistic regression and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test were also performed.@*Results@#The current study included 293 patients, of whom 7.85% (23/293) had sICH by National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (SICHNINDS), 5.46% (16/293) by Europe Cooperative Acute Stroke Study Ⅱ (SICHECASSⅡ) and 4.44% (13/293) by Safe Implementation of Thrombolysis in Stroke (SICHSITS) criteria. SEDAN had the highest AUROC for predicting sICH: sICHNINDS: AUROC=0.843, OR=3.167, 95%CI 2.106-4.762, P<0.01; sICHECASSⅡ: AUROC=0.797, OR=2.509, 95%CI 1.652-3.812, P<0.01; sICHSITS: AUROC=0.784, OR=2.172, 95%CI 1.405-3.357, P<0.01. And SPAN-100 had the lowest AUROC among all the seven scales and was only associated with risk of SICHNINDS in regression analysis. Furthermore, when sub-grouped the cohort into anterior circulation infarction and posterior circulation infarction, regression analysis suggested that all the seven scales were however not associated with sICH risk in patients with posterior circulation infarction.@*Conclusions@#SEDAN constantly had the highest predictive power, SPAN-100 had the worst. The seven scales studied could not predict sICH in posterior circulation infarction.
Résumé
ObjectiveTo explore the ability of inhibition resistibility of multiple displacement amplification (MDA)in samples with inhibitors. To explain the application and value of MDA in forensic medicine by comparing with using magnetic beads methods(MBM)to purify sample.MethodsDifferent concentra-tions of hemoglobin and humid acid(HA)mixed with DNA samples and then divided the samples into MDA group, MBM group and control group.D3S1358locus was amplified and detected by polyacry-lamide gel electrophoresis detection system and AmpF?STR? IdentifilerTM Plus Kit-capillary electrophore-sis detection system.ResultsWhen hemoglobin concentrations exceed 1 ng/μL or HA concentrations ex-ceed 0.1 ng/μL, amplification products could not be obtained by single-locus system in control group. When hemoglobin concentration exceeds 100 ng/μL or HA concentrations exceed 1 ng/μL, the samples could not be amplified by MBM. Inhibitors in different concentrations were amplified successfully in MDA group without any influence from inhibitors.ConclusionMDA has the capability to remove the inhibi-tion of hemoglobin and HA, which is better than MBM and has a certain value in forensic practices.
