SAP pig model was induced by retrograde injection of artificial bile into the pancreatic duct. The pigs were randomly divided into SAP hemofiltration treatment group (HF group, n=8) and SAP non-hemofiltration treatment group (NHF group, n=8). In the HF group, the animals were subjected to high-volume and zero-balance hemofiltration therapy. The results showed that as compared with NHF group, MAP, CVP and PaO 2/FiO 2 were significantly increased (P<0.01), while HR, urinary protein content, serum ALT level, pulmonary coefficient and lung wet/dry ratio obviously decreased (P<0.05) in HF group. Under a light microscope, the pulmonary histologic scoring was lower that in HF group (P<0.01) and the lesions of renal and liver tissues were milder. However, there was no significant difference in the pancreatic histologic scoring between the two groups. Six h after establishment of the model, the serum levels of TNF-α, IL-1β were lower, while the IL-10/TNF-α ratio was higher in HF group (all P<0.05). It was suggested that early hemofiltration could effectively remove the serum cytokines TNF-α and IL-1β in SAP pigs, elevate the ratio of IL-10/TNF-α, improve hemodynamics and alleviate the lesions of lung, kidney and liver tissues.展开更多

METHODS The study group consisted of 15 patients(10 wom- en,5 men;average age,42.7)who were hospitalized in our hospital.All patients were given“FHDOS”:short period high in large volume Anisodaminum:intravenous injection 40 mg once; another 40rag may be added 30 minutes later according to condition.The total amount may reach 120-240 mg a day,or,in- travenous injection 40 mg every 15 minutes until condition being under control.Short period high doses in large volume Dexamethasonum:intravenous injection 100-200 mg once;this remedy may be continued for 1-3 days;the amount also may de- crease according to condition.High doses in large volume of dis- infectant Antibiotics:select and use antibiotics according to clini- cal condition,inference of Gram's stain;it is necessary to re- peatedly culture bacteria in many parts,and then,to make ad- justment according to culture result and drug-resistance,and to prevent carefully the dual infections from occurring.High doses in large volume of abdominal cavity washing liquor:generally adopt- ing physiological saline 6000o8000ml in washing abdominal cavity. “One support”means full support of nutrition metabolism. RESULTS All the patients in this group survive well after the rescue without any complication. CONCLUSIONS MOF should be prevented,if possible,by stopping or controlling the injury,removing as much necrotic tis- sue as possible,improving blood flow and oxygen consumption, supporting metabolism,and preventing infection or treating it ear- ly and adequately.“FHDOS”is a combined therapy and plays a key role in treating MOF.展开更多

In a country with very limited resources, the prognosis may be favorable in the absence of renal replacement. We report the case of a 63 years old woman, hypertensive and diabetic, admitted to the ICU for unconsciousness. Clinically, neurological examination notes a Glasgow of 8/15 (Y2, V2, M4) and a left hemiplegia. Temperature was 39°C. Diuresis was 100 ml during the first 24 hours. Blood pressure was 90/60 mmHg, tachycardia at 133/min. Cardiac auscultation is normal. Vascular axes were weakly perceptible. Oxygen saturation was 95%. The skin examination notes a dry skin and mucous membranes, a flattening of the superficial veins, sunken eyes and a persistent skin fold. There is no hepatomegaly or splenomegaly, or jaundice. Biological point of view note natremia: 176 mmol/L;osmolarity: 390 mosmol/kg;creatinin: 300 μmol/L;glycemia > 6 g/L;transaminases 217 UI. Diagnostics: malignant hypernatremia with a high plasma osmolarity associated with an acute anuric renal failure, hydro electrolytic disorders, an abnormal liver function, a fever of central origin and a stroke. The treatment consisted of a correction of the electrolyte disorders by infusion of isotonic and hypotonic fluids with insulin. In a country with very limited resources, the severe hypernatremia prognosis associated with anuric acute renal failure may be favorable in the absence of renal replacement.展开更多

However, γδ-T large granular lymphocyte leukemia (LGL) associated HPS was rarely reported. Herein, we reported a case of γδ-T LGL associated HPS. A previously healthy 21-year-old Chinese man was admitted with high fever, severe pancytopenia and liver dysfunction. He developed disseminated intravascular coaggulation (DIC), shock, gastrointestinal bleeding, acute renal failure as well as central nervous system involvement. Bone marrow aspiration showed infiltration of large granular lymphocytes and hemophagocytic histiocytes. Immunophenotyping analysis by four-color flow cytometry showed the leukemic cells with large side scatter (SSC), CD3+, CD2+, CD8+, CD5-, CD7 partly+, CD4-, CD56-, CD57-. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of TCRβ and γ chain gene rearrangement confirmed TCRγδ T cell clone. Thus, a diagnosis of γδ-T LGL associated HPS was established. The patient worsened rapidly and died of multiple organ failure.展开更多

文摘目的探讨老年重症脑卒中患者发生多器官功能障碍综合征(multiple organ dysfunction syndrome,MODS)的危险因素。方法前瞻性选择2020年1月至2022年12月广东医科大学附属医院收治的老年重症脑卒中患者112例。根据入院后14 d内多器官功能评分系统分为MODS组38例,非MODS组74例。根据最终预后又分为生存组33例和死亡组79例。收集患者一般临床资料、急性生理学与慢性健康状况评估Ⅱ(acute physiology and chronic health evaluation,APACHEⅡ)评分、格拉斯哥昏迷评分(Glasgow coma scale,GCS)和头颅影像学参数。采用logistic回归分析MODS发生的危险因素。结果MODS组脑卒中/脑出血、慢性阻塞性肺疾病、冠心病、吸烟、美国国立卫生研究院卒中量表(National Institute of Health Stroke Scale,NIHSS)评分、APACHEⅡ评分、多支血管病变、尿路感染、静脉血栓、出血、癫痫、心肌梗死、急性期机械通气、渗透疗法和住院病死率明显高于非MODS组,GCS明显低于非MODS组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05,P<0.01)。二元logistic回归分析显示,NIHSS评分、APACHEⅡ评分及多支血管病变是MODS发生的独立危险因素(OR=1.124,95%CI:1.121~1.163,P=0.015;OR=1.265,95%CI:1.296~1.426,P=0.001;OR=2.532,95%CI:1.126~5.013,P=0.026)。死亡组MODS评分、APACHEⅡ评分明显高于生存组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论老年重症脑卒中患者急性期易发生MODS。
