Study on Characteristics and Influencing Factors of Coagulation Indexes in Pulmonary Infection Sepsis

Objective:To explore the characteristics and influencing factors of coagulation indexes in patients with pulmonary infection sepsis.Methods:104 patients in Shaanxi Provincial Hospital of Chinese Medicine from January 2015 to April 2021 were collected and divided into case group(52 cases)and control group(52 cases).The general data and coagulation indexes of the two groups were statistically analyzed.The difference was statistically significant(P<0.05).Binary logistic regression analysis was used.Results:The indexes of age PT,APTT,TT,FDP,D-Dimer,INR and PLT in the control group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.05);There was no significant difference in FIB-C(P>0.05);Binary logistic regression analysis showed that D-Dimer and PLT were the risk factors of pulmonary infection sepsis(OR>1,P<0.05).Conclusion:FDP and D-Dimer are risk factors for the development of pneumonia into sepsis.

Application of Circulating Tumor Cells in Peripheral Blood in Judging the Prognosis of Patients with Renal Cancer and Related Indexes of Blood Coagulation

Objective: To investigate the value of the number of circulating tumor cells (CTC) in peripheral blood in the prognosis and coagulation-related indicators of patients with renal cancer. Methods: 65 patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) confirmed pathologically were divided into CTC positive group and CTC negative group according to the CTC count (5 pcs/3.5 ml). Compare the age, gender, tumor location, TNM (clinical stage), pathological grade, tissue type, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis, prognosis and prothrombin time (PT), fibrinogen (FIB), partial coagulation of the two groups of patients The correlation between the results of zymogen time (APTT) and D-dimer (DD) and the number of CTC. Results: There were significant differences in TNM, lymph node metastasis, and distant metastasis between the two groups (P < 0.05). The number of CTC in patients was correlated with FIB and D-D levels (P < 0.05). Conclusion: The number of CTC in patients with renal cell carcinoma is correlated with some clinical phenotypes (TNM, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis) and some coagulation indexes (FIB, D-D), and can jointly predict the prognosis of renal cancer.

Prognostic significance of preoperative lymphocyte to monocyte ratio in patients with signet ring gastric cancer

BACKGROUND The ratio of lymphocytes to monocytes(LMR)has been shown to be an effective predictor of gastric cancer prognosis.However,its predictive accuracy for signet ring gastric cancer is currently not well understood.AIM To evaluate the prognosis predictive accuracy of preoperative LMR in signet ring gastric cancer.METHODS A total of 212 signet ring gastric cancer patients admitted at the Xiangya Hospital of Central South University,Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery,from January 2012 to December 2016 were enrolled in the study.The prognosis predictive accuracy of preoperative LMR was explored based on the area under the receiver operating characteristic.Factors that significantly affect the survival of patients were identified using single factor analysis,and those that were independently associated with signet ring gastric cancer were identified through multivariate analysis.RESULTS The results of the single factor analysis revealed a strong correlation between the survival of signet ring gastric cancer patients and several factors,including tumor invasion(χ^(2)=49.726;P<0.001),lymph node metastasis(χ^(2)=30.269;P<0.001),pTNM stage(χ^(2)=49.322;P<0.001),surgical approach(χ^(2)=8.489;P=0.004),age(t=-2.213;P<0.028),carcinoembryonic antigen(CEA)(Z=-3.265;P=0.001),platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio(Z=-2.196;P=0.028),LMR(Z=-2.226;P=0.026),ALB(t=3.284;P=0.001),prognostic nutritional index(t=-3.789;P<0.001)and FIB(Z=-3.065;P=0.002).Furthermore,the multivariate analysis further demonstrated that age(HR:0.563,95%CI:0.363-0.873),tumor invasion depth(HR:0.226,95%CI:0.098-0.520),pTNM stage(HR:0.444,95%CI:0.255-0.771),preoperative CEA level(HR:0.597,95%CI:0.386-8.790),and preoperative LMR level(HR:1.776,95%CI:1.150-2.741)were independent factors influencing the prognosis of signet ring gastric cancer.CONCLUSION In signet ring gastric cancer patients,a low preoperative LMR level predicts poor prognosis.The death risk ratio of the low LMR group compared to the high LMR group is 1.776.
