RESUMO
Retinopathy of prematurity(ROP), an abnormal vascular proliferative retinopathy of prematurity, is a serious condition that can lead to retinal detachment or blindness. With the development of neonatal medicine, the survival rate of low birth weight and low gestational age infants has been increasing, as well as the incidence of ROP. Therefore, studying ROP's pathogenesis and influencing factors is of great clinical importance. Numerous studies have been conducted on the risk factors for ROP, including gestational age, oxygen intake, mode of delivery, neonatal bronchopulmonary dysplasia, and the use of surfactants. At present, it is widely accepted both at home and abroad that preterm birth, low birth weight, and high oxygen concentration after birth are independent risk factors for ROP. In recent years, more and more scholars have found that abnormalities in blood indicators in preterm infants may be associated with the development of ROP. This article reviews the effects of platelets, haemoglobin, blood glucose, inflammatory cells, and lipids on ROP, providing a reference for identifying and preventing risk factors for ROP.
RESUMO
Objective The pathogenesis of acute mountain sickness(AMS)is still unclear.This study intends to continuously record the changes of physiological parameters of the Han population in the plain after high altitude exposure,and screen out the difference between AMS and high altitude acclimatization.Methods A total of 46 healthy Han people in the plain were recruited to establish a study cohort.The basic physiological and hematological parameters were measured at the time of in the plain(500 m above sea level,CQ),on the second day(LS1),the 23rd day(LS2),the 44th day(LS3)and the 65th day(LS4)after reaching the plateau.According to the 2018 version of the Louise Lake Acute Mountain Sickness Scoring System(LLS)scale score at LS2,they were divided into the AMS group and the non-AMS group,and the differences and continuous changes of parameters between groups were analyzed.Results At any time point,there was no significant difference in basic physiological and hematological parameters such as oxygen saturation,heart rate(HR),blood pressure(BP),red blood cell count(BRC),hemoglobin(Hb),and hematocrit(HCT)between the two groups(P＞0.05).Among the blood biochemical parameters,only albumin(ALB)was statistically significant at the time of LS2 and LS3 between the AMS group and the non-AMS group(P＜0.05),and the in-crease of ALB was significantly correlated with the decrease of AMS incidence(OR=0.676,95％CI:0.511-0.894,P=0.006).Conclusion Blood oxygen saturation,BRC,hemoglobin level Hb,Hb may have no predictive value for AMS,while ALB may be a good predictor for AMS,and its changes may play an important role in a-voiding AMS and promoting high altitude acclimatization.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the differences in the effectiveness of using different blood indicators individually,in combination,and for dynamic monitoring in the diagnosis,differential diagnosis,and prognosis of bacterial infections.Methods 1843 cases with infectious symptoms or signs from January 2015 to September 2022 at the People's Hospital of Yuxi City were selected as the case group,and 2298 uninfected individuals during the same period were selected as the control group.Blood indicators of the two groups were collected.Variables were grouped according to gender,age group,specimen type,etc.SPSS 24.0 and Medcalc 20.0 were used for statistical analysis.Results The individual diagnostic efficacy of various blood indicators for detecting infection ranges from 0.656 to 0.937.When used together,the efficacy ranges from 0.907 to 0.987.The efficacy of distinguishing between G+c and G-b in different specimens is as follows:when PCT is used alone in blood,the AUC is 0.875 for males and 0.769 for females.However,the individual diagnostic efficacy in male mucous secretions,sterile body fluids,and non-adult male sputum is all≤0.7.Yet,when used together,the efficacy is AUC(0.789,0.737,0.86)respectively.The dynamic monitoring of PCT,IL-6,CRP,WBC,and LAC in adult patients at 24 h,48 h,and 72 h after admission shows statistically significant differences in prognostic efficacy for G+c and G-b(P<0.05).Conclusions Blood indicators have a certain diagnostic value for determining whether there is a bacterial infection,and there are gender differences.The combined use of these indicators is more effective.The diagnostic value of using blood indicators alone or in combination for distinguishing between G+c and G-b in different types of specimens varies.The use of PCT alone in blood specimens is the most effective.For adult males,the combined use of body surface mucous secretions and sterile body fluids is most effective,while for underage males,the combined use of sputum is most effective.The combined use for females is not effective.Dynamic monitoring of PCT,CRP,IL-6,LAC,and WBC has a high value for evaluating the prognosis and therapeutic effect of infections.The evaluation of G+c infection is most effective at 24 hours for IL-6,and for G-b infection,it is most effective at 72 hours for PCT.
RESUMO
Objective To understand the changes in body weight,spleen weight and complete blood cells in BALB/c mice infected with Babesia microti.Methods For the infection group,six weeks old BALB/c mice were injected intraperitoneally with a dose of 100μL of B.microti infected blood(20％RBC infection rate,each mouse).For the determination of the progres-sion of B.microti infection up to 28 days of the infection,the microscopic visualization of thin blood smears of tail blood stained with Giemsa staining was performed in the infection group.The experiment was carried out at different intervals on days 0,7,14,21,and 28 after the infection,respectively.The mice were sacrificed,and spleens were collected and weighed,and the body weight of the mice was also determined.The blood cells of the mice were analyzed by using Mindray BC-5300 Vet animal automatic hematology analyzer.Results On the first day after the infection,B.microti was visualized in RBC of the infection group.The significantly highest infection rate(55％)appeared on the seventh day of the infection,and then steadily decreased;the mice attained the latent infection phase on the 28th day post-infection,when the parasite could not be visualized in the pe-ripheral blood.The mice in the infected group acquired a significantly lowest body weight on the 7th day of the infection,and then gradually returned to normal.The weight of the spleen was the significantly highest on the 14th day of the infection,and then consistently decreased.On the 28th day of infection,the spleen weight was still higher than that of the control group.There were no significant changes in the number of white blood cells(WBC),lymphocytes,and eosinophils in the infected mice;and altered levels were all within the normal mouse reference range.The number of red blood cells,hemoglobin,and platelet count in the infected mice were decreased to the lowest level when the B.microti infection rate achieved to the highest,and then gradu-ally returned to the normal levels.Conclusions B.microti infection can cause body weight loss,splenic weight gain,and re-duction in the number of erythrocytes and platelets in whole blood of the mice.Besides,the whole blood cell analyzer has a diag-nostic significance in the identification of babesiosis.
