Methods Forty rats were randomly divided into four groups as normal group （n = 10）, sham-operation group （n = 10）, model group （n = 10）, EA group （n = 10）. The acute cerebral infarction model in rats was developed by blocking the middle cerebral artery with an intraluminal thread. The contents of t-PA,PAI-1 ,D-D and Fib were estimated in each group. Results The contents of t-PA, PAI-1, D-D and Fib increased significantly （P〈0.01） in the model group as compared to the normal and sham-operation group. The contents of t-PA, PAI-1, D-D and Fib decreased significantly （P〈0.05-0.01） in the EA group as compared to the normal group. Conclusion The balance function of blood clotting and fibrinolysis were good and the cerebral abnormal blood was improved in EA group.展开更多

Methods Forty healthy SD rats were randomly divided into model group （n = 10）, EA group （n = 10）, normal group （n = 10）, and sham operation group （n = 10）. The model of acute cerebral infarction was established by blocking the middle cerebral artery with an intraluminal thread. EA was applied at ＂Baihui＂ （百会 GV 20） and ＂Shuigou＂ （水沟GV 26） in the rats of EA group after the models were developed. The contents of D-dimer （D-D） and fibrinogen （Fib） were measured in each group. Results The contents of D-D and Fib increased signifi- cantly in model group as compared with normal and sham operation groups, respectively （P〈0.01）, and they decreased significantly in EA group as compared with model group （P〈0.01）. Conclusion EA can ob-viously decrease the contents of D-D and Fib, improve abnormal fibrinolysis, lower blood viscosity and ameliorate cerebral blood circulation in the rats with acute cerebral infarction.展开更多

An urgent computed tomography an- giography showed acute thoracic aortic dissection, DeBakey type IIIb, a dissecting aneurysm in the proximal descending thoracic aorta start- ing immediately after the origin of the left subclavian artery and extending distally below the renal arteries with evidence of rupture into the right pleural cavity for massive pleural effusion. Plasma D-dimer, brain natriuretic peptide and C reactive protein level were elevated. Our case showed that D-dimer can be used as a ＇rule-out＇ test in patients with suspected aortic dissection. A raised BNP may exert a protective role through anti-inflammatory endothelial actions in the systemic circulation.展开更多

文摘目的 探讨D-二聚体对消化道肿瘤患者术后深静脉血栓形成的预测价值.方法 选取我院2017年11月~2018年11月消化道肿瘤手术患者97例,分别检测术前、手术当天及术后1 d的D-二聚体水平,并根据彩色多普勒超声检查结果将其分为DVT组(n=9)和非DVT组(n=88),同时选取我院健康体检者30例作为对照组,比较组内不同时间段及各组间的D-二聚体水平.结果 DVT组和非DVT组患者术前D-二聚体水平与对照组差异无统计学意义(P>0.05);DVT组和非DVT组患者手术当天、术后1 d D-二聚体水平明显高于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05);DVT组和非DVT组患者手术当天、术后1 d的D-二聚体水平明显高于术前,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05).ROC曲线分析显示术后1 d D-二聚体水平预测深静脉血栓形成较手术当天更准确,最佳临界值为4.23 mg/L时,灵敏度为87.5%,特异度为86.6%,曲线下面积为0.925.Logistic回归分析结果显示深静脉血栓形成与手术当天、术后1 d D-二聚体明显升高、Wells评分>1分、基础疾病呈正相关,与年龄、性别、是否腔镜手术相关性不明显.结论 D-二聚体水平对消化道肿瘤患者术后并发深静脉血栓形成的早期预测具有重要意义.
