The theory of “rhythmic equilibrium” is developed based on the idea of sharing the same laws between nature and human, and by integrating with the medical concept of homeostasis of calm yin and sound yang. "Rhythmic instability" runs through the entire process of the occurrence and development of myopia, covering four aspects including imbalance of rhythm (high-risk period of myopia), imbalance of qi and blood (premyopia), imbalance of sinew-membranes (low myopia), and imbalance of essence and blood (high myopia). The treatment should focus on adjusting the rhythm and harmonizing situation, which can help balance yin and yang, and nourish the eye system. For high-risk period of myopia, adjusting sleeping time and increasing outdoor activities are stressed to adjust the rhythm in a timely manner. In the stage of premyopia, appropriate techniques of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) such as pressing needles can be added to harmonize qi and blood. In the period of low myopia, appropriate TCM techniques such as pressing needles and ear acupuncture are mainly used, supplemented by modified Danggui Buxue Decoction (当归补血汤) to soften tendons and unblock collaterals. During the period of high myopia, it is recommended to control the development of existing disease and put focus on nourishing essence and blood, usually with Zhujing Pill (驻景丸) or modified Siwu Wuzi Decoction (四物五子汤) to restore the stability of the eyes and the whole body.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical effect and possible mechanism of modified Shenling Baizhu Powder (参苓白术散) and Xiaoluo Pill (消瘰丸) in the treatment of children with adenoid hypertrophy due to spleen deficiency and phlegm accumulation. MethodsOne hundred and thirty children with adenoid hyperplasia due to spleen deficiency and phlegm accumulation were randomly divided into 65 cases each in the observation group and control group. The control group was given mometasone furoate nasal spray, one spray into each nostril, once a day, while the observation group was given modified Shenling Baizhu Powder and Xiaoluo Pill orally, one dose per day, and both groups were treated for 8 months. The pre- and after-treatment electronic nasopharyngoscope scores, specific quality of life survey scale (OSA-18) scores, total TCM symptom scores, serum cysteine leukotrienes (CysLTs), interleukin 2 (IL-2), tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), and interleukin 10 (IL-10) levels were compared to determine the clinical efficacy after treatment. ResultsAfter treatment, the electronic nasopharyngoscope scores, OSA-18 scores, total TCM symptom scores, serum CysLTs, IL-2 and TNF-α levels significantly decreased, while IL-10 levels increased in both groups (P<0.01). Compared between the two groups after treatment, the electronic nasopharyngoscope score, OSA-18 score, total TCM symptom score, serum CysLTs, IL-2 and TNF-α levels were significantly lower, and the IL-10 level was higher in the observation group than in the control group (P<0.01). The total effective rate of the observation group was 95.38% (62/65), superior to 81.54% (53/65) of the control group (P<0.05). ConclusionFor children with adenoid hypertrophy due to spleen deficiency and phlegm accumulation, modified Shenling Baizhu Powder and Xiaoluo Pill can help to improve symptoms, increase quality of life and clinical efficacy, and its mechanism may be related to reducing the inflammatory response.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical Gram-negative bacteria isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2022.Methods:The clinical isolates of Gram-negative bacteria from blood cultures in member hospitals of national bloodstream infection Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System(BRICS)were collected during January 2022 to December 2022. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute(CLSI). WHONET 5.6 and SPSS 25.0 software were used to analyze the data.Results:During the study period,9 035 strains of Gram-negative bacteria were collected from 51 hospitals,of which 7 895(87.4%)were Enterobacteriaceae and 1 140(12.6%)were non-fermenting bacteria. The top 5 bacterial species were Escherichia coli( n=4 510,49.9%), Klebsiella pneumoniae( n=2 340,25.9%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa( n=534,5.9%), Acinetobacter baumannii complex( n=405,4.5%)and Enterobacter cloacae( n=327,3.6%). The ESBLs-producing rates in Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus spp. were 47.1%(2 095/4 452),21.0%(427/2 033)and 41.1%(58/141),respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli(CREC)and carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae(CRKP)were 1.3%(58/4 510)and 13.1%(307/2 340);62.1%(36/58)and 9.8%(30/307)of CREC and CRKP were resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination,respectively. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii(CRAB)complex was 59.5%(241/405),while less than 5% of Acinetobacter baumannii complex was resistant to tigecycline and polymyxin B. The prevalence of carbapenem-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa(CRPA)was 18.4%(98/534). There were differences in the composition ratio of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections and the prevalence of main Gram-negative bacteria resistance among different regions,with statistically significant differences in the prevalence of CRKP and CRPA( χ2=20.489 and 20.252, P<0.001). The prevalence of CREC,CRKP,CRPA,CRAB,ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were higher in provinicial hospitals than those in municipal hospitals( χ2=11.953,81.183,10.404,5.915,12.415 and 6.459, P<0.01 or <0.05),while the prevalence of CRPA was higher in economically developed regions(per capita GDP ≥ 92 059 Yuan)than that in economically less-developed regions(per capita GDP <92 059 Yuan)( χ2=6.240, P=0.012). Conclusions:The proportion of Gram-negative bacteria in bloodstream infections shows an increasing trend,and Escherichia coli is ranked in the top,while the trend of CRKP decreases continuously with time. Decreasing trends are noted in ESBLs-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Low prevalence of carbapenem resistance in Escherichia coli and high prevalence in CRAB complex have been observed. The composition ratio and antibacterial spectrum of bloodstream infections in different regions of China are slightly different,and the proportion of main drug resistant bacteria in provincial hospitals is higher than those in municipal hospitals.

Objective:To construct pancreatic cancer cell lines expressing luciferase and mesothelin (MSLN), and evaluate the feasibility of using them as target cells in analyzing the cytotoxicity activity of immune cells.Methods:Lentiviral vectors expressing luciferase and MSLN genes were constructed, and pancreatic cancer cell lines were infected after lentivirus packaging. Single-cell clones were obtained by limited dilution following antibiotic screening, and the stable expression of the target genes were verified. These cells were used as target cells to detect the cytotoxicity of immune cells by real-time cell analysis (RTCA) and luciferase activity. Besides, these luciferase-expressing cells were transplanted into B-NDG mice to establish the animal models of pancreatic cancer, and in vivo optical imaging technology was used to detect the expression of luciferase and monitor the tumor growth in mice. The cytotoxicity of chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells was verified in these animal models. Results:Three pancreatic cancer cell lines, panc-1-luc, panc-1-luc-MSLN and capan-2-luc, that could stably express luciferase and MSLN genes were successfully constructed. The expression of the reporter gene in these cells were high, and positively correlated with the number of cells. There were 95.6% of panc-1-luc-MSLN cells expressing MSLN. MSLN-CAR-T cells had specific killing effect on MSLN-positive panc-1-luc-MSLN cells and capan-2-luc cells, with the minimum killing rates of (70.00±18.19)% and (57.00±5.29)%, respectively. But they had no cytotoxicity to MSLN-negative panc-1-luc cells. RTCA results showed that MSLN-CAR-T cells were able to lyse all three pancreatic cancer cell lines, and the minimum killing rates were (56.33±7.64)%, (93.00±2.65)% and (26.33±28.15)%, respectively. The killing of target cells by NK-92MI cells was not depended on MSLN expression. The cytotoxicity in the mice models of pancreatic cancer was consistent with the results in vitro. The in vivo and in vitro test results suggested that the expression of luciferase by target cells could reflect the cytotoxicity of immune cells. Conclusions:This study establishes three pancreatic cancer cell lines stably expressing luciferase, which can be used to evaluate the cytotoxicity of immunotherapy products targeting tumor cells in vitro and in vivo.

Objective:To develop a formula for estimating the insertion length of orogastric (OG) tube for preterm infants based on growth indicators and gestational age (GA).Methods:From January 2020 to December 2021, preterm infants admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of our hospital were retrospectively reviewed. OG tubes were inserted within 24 h of admission and the lengths of OG tubes were adjusted according to chest and abdominal X-ray results. The formula for OG tube placement was developed using stepwise regression analysis method with GA, body weight (BW) and body length (BL) as the independent variables and the corrected length of OG tube as the dependent variable. The weight-based formula developed by Freeman et al. were compared.Results:A total of 180 preterm infants were included, with 90 cases GA<32 weeks, 84 cases GA 32~35 weeks and 6 cases GA 36 weeks. No significant differences ( P>0.05) existed in the incidences of misplacement of OG tube and the specific types of misplacement among GA groups. For infants with GA≤35 weeks, the insertion length of OG tube was positively correlated with BW and BL and for preterm infants with GA 36 weeks, the insertion length of OG tube was positively correlated with BW only. Stepwise regression analysis showed the formula as OG tube length (cm)=11.8+2.1×BW (kg) or OG tube length (cm)=9.5+1.6×BW (kg)+0.091×GA (week). Comparing with the formula developed by Freeman et al., the differences of OG tube length estimated using our formula were more prominent as BW increased. Conclusions:The length of OG tube is positively correlated with BW and GA with BW shows more influence.

Objective:To report the results of national surveillance on the distribution and antimicrobial resistance profile of clinical bacterial isolates from bloodstream infections in China in 2021.Methods:The clinical bacterial strains isolated from blood culture from member hospitals of Blood Bacterial Resistant Investigation Collaborative System (BRICS) were collected during January 2021 to December 2021. Antibiotic susceptibility tests were conducted by agar dilution or broth dilution methods recommended by Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI). WHONET 5.6 was used to analyze data.Results:During the study period, 11 013 bacterial strains were collected from 51 hospitals, of which 2 782 (25.3%) were Gram-positive bacteria and 8 231 (74.7%) were Gram-negative bacteria. The top 10 bacterial species were Escherichia coli (37.6%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (18.9%), Staphylococcus aureus (9.8%), coagulase-negative Staphylococci (6.3%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (3.6%), Enterococcus faecium (3.6%), Acinetobacter baumannii (2.8%), Enterococcus faecalis (2.7%), Enterobacter cloacae (2.5%) and Klebsiella spp (2.1%). The prevalence of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococcus aureus were 25.3% and 76.8%, respectively. No glycopeptide- and daptomycin-resistant Staphylococci was detected; more than 95.0% of Staphylococcus aureus were sensitive to ceftobiprole. No vancomycin-resistant Enterococci strains were detected. The rates of extended spectrum B-lactamase (ESBL)-producing isolated in Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Proteus mirabilis were 49.6%, 25.5% and 39.0%, respectively. The prevalence rates of carbapenem-resistance in Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae were 2.2% and 15.8%, respectively; 7.9% of carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae was resistant to ceftazidime/avibactam combination. Ceftobiprole demonstrated excellent activity against non-ESBL-producing Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. Aztreonam/avibactam was highly active against carbapenem-resistant Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae. The prevalence rate of carbapenem-resistance in Acinetobacter baumannii was 60.0%, while polymyxin and tigecycline showed good activity against Acinetobacter baumannii (5.5% and 4.5%). The prevalence of carbapenem-resistance in Pseudomonas aeruginosa was 18.9%. Conclusions:The BRICS surveillance results in 2021 shows that the main pathogens of blood stream infection in China are gram-negative bacteria, in which Escherichia coli is the most common. The MRSA incidence shows a further decreasing trend in China and the overall prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococci is low. The prevalence of Carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae is still on a high level, but the trend is downwards.

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the perinatal outcome and risk factors of precipitate labor in term primipara.@*METHODS@#A total of 6951 full-term singleton primiparas with cephalic vaginal delivery in Women's Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine from January 2020 to December 2020 were enrolled, among whom 381 cases of precipitate labor were classified as the precipitate labor group and 762 cases of normal labor were randomly selected as the control group. The perinatal outcomes of the two groups were compared, and the risk factors of precipitate labor were analyzed by multivariate logistic regression.@*RESULTS@#The incidence of precipitate labor in full-term, singleton pregnancy and cephalic primiparas was 5.48% (381/6951). The durations of the first and second stages of labor in the precipitate labor group were significantly shorter than that in the control group ( P<0.01); while there was no significant difference in the duration of the third stage of labor between the two groups ( P>0.05). Compared with the control group, the incidence of soft birth canal laceration in the precipitate labor group was increased ( P<0.01). However, there was no significant difference in postpartum hemorrhage and neonatal related perinatal outcomes between the two groups (all P>0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that maternal height ( OR=1.038, 95% CI: 1.010-1.067, P<0.01), gestational age at delivery ( OR=0.716, 95% CI: 0.618-0.829, P<0.01), late miscarriage ( OR=1.986, 95% CI: 1.065-3.702, P<0.05), membrane rupture before labor ( OR=1.802, 95% CI: 1.350-2.406, P<0.01), labor induction by transcervical balloon ( OR=3.230, 95% CI: 2.027-5.147, P<0.01), labor induction by propess ( OR=2.332, 95% CI: 1.632-3.334, P<0.01) and labor induction by oxytocin ( OR=0.291, 95% CI: 0.219-0.386, P<0.01) were independently associated with precipitate labor.@*CONCLUSIONS@#The incidence of precipitate labor in full-term, singleton pregnancy was not low. Precipitate labor could lead to a significant increase in perineal laceration. Maternal height, history of late miscarriage, membrane rupture before labor and labor induction by transcervical balloon, labor induction by propess are risk factors, while labor induction by oxytocin and late gestational time of delivery are protective factors for precipitate labor in term primipara.

Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of irreversible electroporation (IRE) combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer. Methods We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, China Biomedical Literature Database, CNKI, Wanfang, and VIP databases for articles dated from the establishment of each database to March 2022. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan5.4 software. Results A total of 3970 patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer were enrolled in eight studies, including one randomized controlled trial, four retrospective studies, and three prospective studies. The patients were divided into the combined therapy group with 344 patients and the chemotherapy-only group with 3626 patients. Meta-analysis showed that the overall survival of patients in the combined therapy group was significantly higher than that in the chemotherapy-only group (OR=4.52; 95%CI: 2.63-7.77; P < 0.00001). However, no significant difference existed in the disease control rate between the combined therapy group and the chemotherapy-only group (OR=0.58; 95%CI: 0.02-18.74; P=0.76). Moreover, no significant difference existed in the disease progression between the two groups (OR=0.49; 95%CI: 0.23-1.02; P=0.06). The combination of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and IRE had no significant effect on the incidence of adverse reactions of gastrointestinal reaction (OR=0.37; 95%CI: 0.10-1.34; P=0.13) and bone marrow suppression (OR=0.61; 95%CI: 0.26-1.40; P=0.24). Conclusion IRE combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy can remarkably improve the prognosis of patients with locally advanced pancreatic cancer, and significantly prolong the overall survival.

Objective:To analyze nine cases of pregnancy and lactation-associated osteoporosis(PLO) along with a literature review to improve clinicians′ knowledge of the disease.Methods:We collected medical history, laboratory examination, bone mineral density(BMD) scan, treatment and follow-up data of 9 inpatients with PLO in the Endocrinology Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2014 to June 2021.Results:The median age of onset of 9 patients with PLO was 30 years(22-37 years). All 9 patients presented low back pain, and the median time of low back pain after childbirth was 2.5 months(0.5-7 months). 89% of the patients presented vertebral compression fractures, and the mean number of vertebral fractures was 4.6. Eight patients with PLO showed osteoporosis by dual X-ray absorpiometry(DXA) scan, and one patient showed bone loss by quantitative CT scan. Osteoporosis predominated in the trabecular bone. After the diagnosis, nine patients with PLO stopped breastfeeding and were given calcium and vitamin D preparations. Seven patients were given bisphosphonates and one patient was treated with teriparatide followed by denosumab. The back pain of all patients was relieved, with the median of relief time being 3 months(7 d-6 m). After treatment initiation, BMD was increased in eight patients, especially obvious in the lumbar spine. No new clinical fractures occurred during the follow-up.Conclusions:For women with low back pain and shortened height in late pregnancy or breastfeeding, the possibility of PLO should be considered. Prompt diagnosis and early medical interventions are of utmost importance to reduce the risk of subsequent fractures and improve the prognosis.

Objective:To investigate the expression of Macrophage migration-inhibitory factors (MIF) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissues and its interaction with ERK1/2 signaling pathway, so as to establish a theoretical basis for further studying the molecular mechanism of MIF promoting HCC.Methods:From February 2020 to August 2021, 52 cases of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) tissues based on hepatitis B cirrhosis (HBV-LC) and 52 cases of adjacent tissues in Tianjin Medical University Cancer Hospital and 940th Hospital of Joint Logistic Support Force of PLA were collected as the experimental group, including 39 males and 13 females, aged 35-65 years. And 20 cases of normal liver tissue were selected as the control group. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of MIF, ERK1/2 and p-ERK1/2 proteins in liver tissues of the two groups, and in situ hybridization was used to detect the expression of ERK1/2 nucleic acid in liver tissues of the two groups.HepG2 HCC cells and L-02 normal hepatocytes were co-cultured with different concentrations of rMIF, the expression and phosphorylation levels of ERK1/2 and JNK1 proteins in the two kinds of liver cells were detected by Western-blot, and the expression levels of ERK1/2 nucleic acids in the two kinds of liver cells were detected by RT-PCR. One-way ANOVA was used for measurement data and χ 2 test was used for counting data. Results:The expressions of MIF, ERK1/2, p-ERK1/2 and ERK1/2 mRNA were significantly increased in HCC and para-cancer tissues (the expression of MIF in HCC group was 78.8%, and that in adjacent group was 75.0%; ERK1/2 80.8% in HCC group and ERK1/2 71.8% in paracancerous group. The expression of p-ERK1/2 75.0 % in HCC group and 46.2% in paracancerous group were respectively detected. ERK1/2 mRNA was expressed in HCC group 76.9%, ERK1/2 mRNA expression in paracancerous group 78.8%), and the differences were statistically significant compared with normal liver tissues ( P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between HCC and para-cancer tissues ( P>0.05). The expressions of ERK1/2, p-ERK1/2 and ERK1/2 mRNA in HepG2 HCC cells were significantly increased with the increase of rMIF concentration, and the increase was most obvious when rMIF concentration was 200 ng/ml, and the difference was statistically significant compared with L-02 normal hepatocytes ( P<0.05). Conclusion:MIF, ERK1/2 and p-ERK1/2 are highly expressed in HCC tissues and HepG2 HCC cells, suggesting that MIF promotes the occurrence and development of hepatocellular carcinoma through ERK1/2 signaling pathway.

Objective:To compare the performance of the severity-of-illness score for toxic epidermal necrolysis (SCORTEN) and ABCD-10 (age, bicarbonate, cancer, dialysis, 10% body surface area) scoring systems in predicting death in patients with Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) /toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) .Methods:Clinical data were collected from 85 patients with SJS/TEN who were hospitalized in Sichuan Provincial People′s Hospital from January 2010 to April 2021, and retrospectively analyzed. The predicted mortality and actual mortality were compared at each score level of SCORTEN and ABCD-10. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test were used to evaluate the predictive power and calibration of SCORTEN and ABCD-10 on mortality.Results:Among the 85 patients, 37 were males and 48 were females, and their ages were 52.36 ± 19.31 years (range, 14 - 88 years) . There were 61 cases of SJS, 6 of SJS/TEN overlap, and 18 of TEN. Ten patients died in hospital and the fatality rate was 11.76%. Among the SCORTEN and ABCD-10 components, age > 40 years or ≥ 50 years, epidermal exfoliation > 10% body surface area on the 1st day after admission, heart rate > 120 beats per minute, serum urea nitrogen level > 10 mmol/L and serum bicarbonate level < 20 mmol/L were significantly correlated with death ( χ2 = 4.46, 6.18, 25.50, 15.13, 7.59, 8.38, respectively, all P < 0.05) , while malignancies, serum glucose level > 14 mmol/L, and pre-hospital dialysis were not significantly correlated with death ( χ2 = 0.35, 0.10, 1.38, respectively, all P > 0.05) . There were no significant differences between the predicted mortality and actual mortality at every score level of SCORTEN and ABCD-10 (all P > 0.05) . The ROC curve showed that both SCORTEN and ABCD-10 had good predictive power for death (areas under the curve: 0.874 and 0.867, 95% CI: 0.758 - 0.990, 0.773 - 0.962, respectively) , but the model goodness-of-fit of SCORTEN was superior to that of ABCD-10 ( P = 0.944, 0.048, respectively) . Conclusion:Both SCORTEN and ABCD-10 scoring systems could accurately predict mortality of SJS/TEN patients at early stage, but SCORTEN showed more favourable predictive power and calibration.

Objective:To investigate the value of antithrombin Ⅲ (AT-Ⅲ) in evaluating patients with decompensated hepatitis B liver cirrhosis and complicated with esophagogastric variceal bleeding (EVB).Methods:From January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2021, clinical data of 193 hospitalized patients with hepatitis B liver cirrhosis diagnosed in the Second Hospital of Shanxi Medical University were retrospectively analyzed, which included coagulation indicator (AT-Ⅲ), liver function indicators (total bilirubin, etc.), abdominal ultrasound results (portal vein diameter, portal vein blood flow velocity), and the occurrence of esophagogastric varices. According to the presence or absence of main complications, 193 patients with hepatitis B liver cirrhosis were divided into compensated group (60 cases) and decompensated group (133 cases). According to the presence or absence of EVB, 133 patients of decompensated group were divided into non-bleeding subgroup (96 cases) and bleeding subgroup (37 cases). The above indicators were compared among compensated group, decompensated group and their subgroups. The independent related factors of decompensated hepatitis B liver cirrhosis and EVB were analyzed. The level of AT-Ⅲ of each group were compared, and the relationship between AT-Ⅲ and Child-Pugh score was analyzed. The diagnostic capability of AT-Ⅲ in decompensated hepatitis B liver cirrhosis and complicated with EVB were analyzed. Mann-Whitney U test, independent sample t test, chi-square test, multiple logistic regression analysis, Pearson correlation analysis and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis were used for statistical analysis. Results:The total bilirubin level of the decompensated group was higher than that of the compensated group, the portal vein diameter was larger than that of the compensated group, and the portal vein blood flow velocity was lower than that of the compensated group (31.50 μmol/L (21.90 μmol/L, 48.80 μmol/L) vs. 19.40 μmol/L (15.00 μmol/L, 25.50 μmol/L); (14.31±3.53) mm vs. (12.57±3.83) mm; (13.39±3.49) cm/s vs. (15.08±4.28) cm/s), and the differences were statistically significant ( Z=-5.76, t=-2.78 and 2.40; P<0.001, =0.006 and 0.018). The incidence of esophagogastric varices of the compensated group and the decompensated group was compared (40.0%, 24/60 vs. 87.2%, 116/133), and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=64.06, P<0.001). The diameter of portal vein of the bleeding subgroup was larger than that of the non-bleeding subgroup, and the portal vein blood flow velocity was lower than that of the non-bleeding subgroup ((15.54±4.23) mm vs. (13.87±3.16) mm; (12.05±3.12) cm/s vs. (13.85±3.51) cm/s), and the differences were statistically significant ( t=-2.15 and 2.23, P=0.034 and 0.028). The AT-Ⅲ levels gradually decreased in the non-bleeding subgroup and bleeding subgroup of the compensated group and decompensated group, which were (79.52±16.02)%, (63.91±19.96)% and (35.92±13.69)%, respectively, the difference was statistically significant ( F=5.71, P=0.018). The AT-Ⅲ level of the compensated group was higher than that of the non-bleeding subgroup and the bleeding subgroup of the decompensated group, and the AT-Ⅲ level of the non-bleeding subgroup of the decompensated group was higher than that of the bleeding subgroup, and the differences were statistically significant ( t=5.11, 13.74 and 7.84, all P<0.001). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that total bilirubin and AT-Ⅲ were independent related factors of decompensation of hepatitis B liver cirrhosis ( OR (95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.060 (1.018 to 1.104) and 0.945 (0.922 to 0.970), P=0.005 and <0.001). AT-Ⅲ was an independent related factor of decompensation of hepatitis B liver cirrhosis and complicated with EVB ( OR(95% CI) 0.902 (0.856 to 0.950, P<0.001). AT-Ⅲ was negatively correlated with Child-Pugh score ( r=-0.559, P<0.001). ROC analysis showed that the cut-off values of AT-Ⅲ in the diagnosis of decompensated stage of hepatitis B liver cirrhosis and complicated with EVB were 62.5% and 61.5%, the sensitivity was 88.3% and 89.2%, the specificity was 70.7% and 61.5%, and the area under the curve (95% CI) was 0.815 (0.755 to 0.874, P<0.001) and 0.899 (0.828 to 0.971, P<0.001), respectively. Conclusion:AT-Ⅲ is an important indicator in evaluating the severity of disease progression in patients with hepatitis B liver cirrhosis, and it has a certain clinical value in evaluating the bleeding tendency of patients with decompensated hepatitis B liver cirrhosis and complicated with esophagogastric varices.
