Objective To explore the correlation between hospitalization for severe asthma and climate change among adult residents in Dalian. Methods Clinical data of asthma inpatients in Dalian First Affiliated Hospital from January to December 2022 were collected, and assigned into severe asthma group and non-severe asthma group according to the diagnostic criteria of severe asthma. Spirometer was used for the measurement of (forced expiratory volume in the first second , FEV1) and (forced vital capacity , FVC), and the serum white blood cell count and C-reactive protein level were measured by biochemical analyzer. Meantime, meteorological parameters including monthly average temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and duration of sunshine hours were also collected. Then Spearman correlation analysis was conducted to discuss the correlation between the number of hospitalizations for severe asthma and meteorological parameters. Of the 260 asthma patients, 153 had severe asthma and 107 had non-severe asthma. There were 85 male and 68 female patients with severe asthma. The onset age distribution of severe asthma was concentrated at 60-79 years old, with 94 cases, followed by 50-59 years old (n=26). The peak time of onset in each year was from March to May, with 14, 19 and 16 cases, respectively. The secondary peak was from November to January, with 15, 18 and 13 cases, and there were fewer hospital admissions from June to October. FEV1 and FEV1/FVC values were smaller in severe asthma group than in non-severe asthma group, while the white blood cell count and C-reactive protein levels were higher than those in non severe asthma group (P0.05), but was negatively correlated with average temperature and humidity (P<0.05). Conclusion The number of hospital admissions for severe asthma in Dalian varies with the seasons, therefore, early and active interventions are of great value in preventing severe asthma in months with high variations in temperature and humidity.

Objective To observe the effects of intensive insulin therapy on C-reactive protein (CRP) ,interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α ) in the patients of critical illness complicated with hyperglycemia and its incidence of side effect. Methods Two hundred and nine patients of critical illness complicated with hyperglycemia were randomly divided into intensive insulin therapy group (106 patients,blood glucose maintained at a level of 4.4-6.1 mmol/L) and conventional insulin therapy group ( 103 patients, blood glucose maintained at a level of 9.0-11.1 mmol/L). Serum levels of CRP,TNF- α and IL-6 were determined on 0,24,48,72 h respectively after ICU admission. Results The levels of blood glucose of both groups reached the target level. The incidence rates of the hypoglycemia had no significant difference between two groups [6.60 % (7/106) vs. 4.76% ( 3/63 ),P > 0.05]. After 72 h treatment, serum level of CRP in intensive insulin therapy group was significantly lower than that in conventional insulin therapy group (P < 0.05 ). After 24,48 and 72 h treatment, serum level of IL-6 in intensive insulin therapy group was significantly lower than that in conventional insulin therapy group (P < 0.05 ). After 48 and 72 h treatment, serum level of TNF-αin intensive insulin therapy group was significantly lower than that in conventional insulin therapy group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Intensive insulin therapy can significantly decrease the levels of non-specific inflammatory factors in patients of critical illness complicated with hyperglycemia, which brings beneficial effect to the patients.
摘要
Medical therapy,education and scientific research are three functions of a hospital,in which education is one of the core tasks.The author thinks that we should strengthen the cultivation of the teachers;raise the level of the managements;increase the teaching input and reinforce the reform of education and scientific research so as to drive and improve the development of the hospital.
