Objective:To investigate the value of modified early warning score (MEWS) combined with D-dimer test in the establishment of an acute pancreatitis severity evaluation model.Methods:The clinical data of 357 patients with acute pancreatitis who received treatment in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University, China between January 2017 and December 2018 were collected for this study. The receiver operating characteristic curve was used to determine the optimal cut-off value of MEWS combined with D-dimer test for predicting non-mild acute pancreatitis. The relationship between MEWS and D-dimer level was analyzed using regression analysis. The area under the curve (AUC) was used to evaluate the ability of each factor to predict the severity of acute pancreatitis. The sensitivity and specificity of the new model to predict non-mild acute pancreatitis were calculated.Results:According to the receiver operating characteristic curve, the AUC of D-dimer, MEWS, and new model were 0.702, 0.628 and 0.734 respectively ( P < 0.05). The AUC of the new model in predicting non-mild acute pancreatitis was significantly higher than that of MEWS and D-dimer test (0.734 > 0.702 > 0.628, Z = 3.20, P < 0.01). Conclusion:The ability of the new model established based on MEWS and D-dimer to predict the severity of acute pancreatitis is stronger than that of each of MEWS and D-dimer. The new model is simple, convenient and more suitable for clinical use.

Objective To get a knowledge of the current status of organ donation and utilization after citizen's death in Wuxi District, and thereby provide ideas and basis for further development of organ donation work in local areas. Methods Clinical data from 151 organ donors, included 37 successful donors and 114 potential donors, were retrospectively analyzed. The reasons for donation failure of potential donors were analyzed. The general information for successful donors was collected. And the information on organ donation and organ utilization in successful donors were analyzed. Results Among the 151 organ donors, 37 were successful donors, with the conversion rate reaching 24.5%. For the 114 donors with failed organ donation, the reasons for failure included family disagreement, failure to meet donation status criteria, insufficient evaluation time, and unresolved work injury disputes. The categories for organ donation included 34 cases of donation after brain death followed by cardiac death (DBCD), 3 cases of donation after brain death (DBD), and no case of donation after cardiac death (DCD). The reasons for death of donors includes 19 cases of craniocerebral trauma, 14 cases of stroke and 4 cases of others. Among the 37 cases of successful donors, the majority were floating population. A total of 154 major organs and tissues were donated, of which 124 were major organs. The number of major organs and tissues donated per citizen was (4.2± 1.6) and the number of major organs donated per citizen was (3.4± 1.1). The utilization rate of the 154 donated organs reached 96.7% (149/154), with Nanjing, Wuxi, Suzhou and Changzhou ranking the top 4 of organ distribution. Conclusions The rate for successful organ donation and conversion after citizen's death is low in Wuxi District. The organ donation work networks in local areas should be established. And organ donation promotion efforts and skills training for coordinators should be developed.

Objective To explore the effect of collaborative nursing on the quality of life and nursing of stroke patients. Methods Toally 84 care-givers for 84 stroke patients hospitalized during February 2014 to March 2016 were chosen. In the control group(hospitalized from Feburary 2013 to Feburary 2014), traditional nursing was carried out, while in the research group(hospitalized from March 2014 to March 2016), the collaborative care intervention was done. The comparisons were done between the two groups in terms of quality of life and care ability by the GHQ-28 quality of life scale assessment, family caregiver task inventory (FCTI) before the intervention and 4 weeks after the intervention. Results Before the intervention, the two groups had no significant differences in life quality and care ability (all P > 0.05). After the intervention, the scores on symptoms, anxiety, depression, insomnia and social dysfunction were all significantly higher than those of the control group (all P<0.05). The scores on the care role, strain, assistance, personal emotion control, family assessment and community resources, and adjustment of life to meet the care needs were all significantly lower than those of the control group (all P<0.05). Conclusions The collaborative care is effective in improving the quality of life of stroke patients. It can improve the care ability of the caregiver.

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the changes of myocardial protein expression profiles in 2-chloro-N6-cyclopentyladenosine (CCPA), an adenosine A1 receptor agonist-induced delayed myocardial protection in New Zealand rabbits .@*METHODS@#A total of 8 rabbits were randomly divided into a CCPA group (CCPA group) and a normal saline group (NS group). CCPA and NS were infused into rabbits in the CCPA group and the NS group respectively. Twenty-four hours later, the rabbits were subjected to 30 min left anterior descending coronary artery occlusion and were reperfused for 2 hours, then the ischemic zone tissues of left ventricle were sampled for proteomic analysis.A total of 12 other New Zeland rabbits were divided into a sham group (Sham group), a normal saline group (NS group) and a CCPA group (CCPA group). The expression of αB-crystalline, one of the differential proteins, was confirmed by Western blot.@*RESULTS@#Analysis of two dimensional gel electrophoresis showed that the expression of 55 protein spots were different between the two groups, 17 protein spots were preliminarily identified with the matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS) and Mascot and Expasy bioinformatics software. These proteins included stress proteins, metabolism-associated proteins, signal transduction pathway-related proteins, ionophorous proteins, immunity-associated proteins, and so on. Western blot showed that the expression of αB-crystalline was significantly up-regulated in the CCPA group.@*CONCLUSION@#The myocardial protein expression profiles are changed markedly in the preconditioning late phase of CCPA .The differential proteins might be involved in the delayed cardioprotection induced by CCPA.
