摘要:目的:探討急診醫療過程中意外死亡的原因,以引起廣大同道的重視。方法:對急診就診過程中24 h內死亡且符合入選標準的68例患者進行死亡原因分析,分析意外死亡常見的病因并探討死亡原因與就診之初臨床特征的關系。結果:68例意外死亡患者占同期死亡人數的4.39%,其中主動脈夾層31例,占同期死亡2%,占意外死亡的45.6%;心臟性猝死(急性心肌梗塞9例,心肌炎4例,)13例占同期死亡病人的0.84%,占意外死亡總數的191%;急性腦血管病(小腦出血5例,小腦梗塞8例)13例,占同期死亡人數的0.84%,占意外死亡總數的19.1%;重癥哮喘3例;不明原因死亡5例。臨床特征多為胸痛、胸背痛、頭痛、上腹痛、眩暈等為首發癥狀。結論:急診就診過程意外死亡發生取決于多種因素,由于這些病例癥狀多不典型,病情復雜多樣,臨床醫師極易忽視,臨床極易漏診、誤診,一旦發生,都將引起較大的醫療糾紛,耗費大量的人力物力。因此對急診就診過程中的不典型特征高度重視及時考慮主動脈夾層、心臟性猝死、急性腦血管病,早期治療,避免意外死亡的發生。Abstract: Objective: To explore the character of accidental death during treatment in emergency department, and get more attention of other emergent doctors to avoid death in emergent treatment.Methods: To analysis death causes of 68 qualified patients, who died within 24 hours after they went to hospital; To analysis familiar accidental death causes and the relationship between them and initial clinical signs. Results:These 68 accidental dead patients occupied 4.39% in all dead patients during the same period, including 31 cases of aortic dissecting hematoma(2% in all dead patients vs 45.6% in accidental dead patients); 13 cases of sudden cardiac death(0.84% in all dead patients vs 19.1% in accidental dead patients), which included 9 cases of acute myocardial infaction, 4 cases of myocarditis; 13 cases of acute cerebravascular diseases(0.84% in all dead patients vs 19.1% in accidental dead patients),which included 5 cases of cerebella hemorrhage and 8 cases of cerebella infarction; 3 severe asthma and other 5 cases without exact reasons. Clinical initial showed frequently the pain of breast, breast and back, head and upper belly, and dizzling. Conclusion: The happening of accidental death during treatment in emergent department was decided by many complicated factors. Because being nontypical and complicated, these factors always were ignored by clinical doctors, resulting wrong diagnosis or leaked diagnosis, which brought many clinical dissensions. Clinical dissensions cost much money and energy. So to know and pay more attention to these nontypical signs is very important to diagnosis aortic dissecting hematoma, sudden cardiac death and acute cerebravascular diseases, and is helpful to treat in time, and consequently the death was avoided.
Objective To observe the protective effects of Na2SeO3 on the damage of retinal neuron induced by microwave. Methods Cultured fluids of retinal neuron were divided into 4 groups,including 1 group of control, according to the concentration of Na2SeO3 in cultured fluid and then exposed to 30 mW/cm2 microwave for 1 hour.The targets of lipid peroxidation and the concentration of selenium in cells were measured.Apoptosis detection was taken by TUNEL detection kit. Results The activity of SOD and GSH-Px rised,meanwhile the content of MDA and the amount of apoptosis cells decreased in 1times;107 mol/L group compared with the group without Na2SeO3.The other groups was superior in antioxdant capacity to 1times;107 mol/L group. Conclusion Na2SeO3 might be possessed of the effect of protecting the damage of retinal neuron induced by microwave. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,2000,16:97-99)
Objctive To explore the relationship between the expression of Fas/FasL and the apoptosis occurs in retinal ischemia/reperfusion injury of rats , as well as the therapeutic effects of bFGF on the ischemic retina.Methods Th emodels of retinal ischemia/reperfusion injury was made by transient elevating introcular pressure. A total of 28 rats were divided into normal and operation group.The latter were subdivided into 1 hour, 6, 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours after reperfusion group, in which the left eyes of the rats were in the ischemia/reper fusion groups and the right ones were in the treatment groups (bFGF intracameral injection). Apoptosis was assessed by the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick-end labelling (TUNEL) method, and the expression of Fas and Fas ligand was studied by strept avidin-biotin complex (SABC)immunohistochemistry. Results No positive cells were observed in the normal rats′retinae, but there was a significant number of TUNEL positive cells in 6-24 hours after transient ischemia followed by a decrease at the 48th hour. The number of TUNEL positive cells reached a maximum at the 24th hour after ischemia. The expression of Fas gradually increased as early as when it was at the 6th hour, reached a peak at the 24th hour, and then decreased at the 48th hour. Similarly, the expression of Fas ligand was at peak in 24-48 hours in GCL and INL of retina. Conclusions Retinal ischemia-reperfusion after transient elevated IOP induced apoptosis of cells in the retina. Fas/FasL may play an important role in the early events of the apoptotic pathways. bFGF can rescue RGCs from retinal ischemia/reperfusion injury through downregulation of the expression of Fas/FasL and may represent an important mechanism for therapeutic neuroprotection.

ObjectiveTo summarize the mechanism of action of programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) inhibitors, the application in breast cancer in recent years and the advances in the study of their bio-markers of effects. MethodRelevant literatures on PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors and the study in the field of breast cancer were reviewed and summarized.ResultsIn recent years, the monotherapy of immune checkpoint inhibitors represented by PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors or in combination with other therapies had brought new hope for patients with breast cancer especially triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). However, only a small number of patients could benefit from breast cancer immunotherapy. The current researchers think that the efficacy of these drugs is related to PD-L1 expression in tumor tissue, tumor mutation burden (TMB), high level of microsatellite instability (MSI-H) and deficient mismatch repair (dMMR).ConclusionBreast cancer can benefit from the immunotherapy of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors, but formulating personalized medicine model, finding biomarkers that can predict efficacy and selecting patients with breast cancer who can benefit from it for targeted therapy are the new requirements in the new era of breast cancer immunotherapy.
ObjectiveTo analyze the trend of disease burden of colorectal cancer (CRC) in China from 1990 to 2019.MethodsData was obtained from Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 (GBD 2019). Incidence, mortality, disability-adjusted life year (DALY), years of life lost (YLL), years lived with disability (YLD), and their corresponding standardized rate and annual average percentage change (AAPC) were used to describe the changes of disease burden of colorectal cancer in Chinese population between 1990 and 2019.ResultsCompared with 1990, the number of new cases, standardized incidence, the number of deaths and standardized mortality of CRC in China in 2019 increased by 474.03%, 144.01%, 230.14%, and 36.15%, respectively. The standardized mortality and standardized incidence of CRC in China had reached and gradually exceeded the global level since 2010. From 1990 to 2019, the overall standard incidence (AAPC=3.6%, P<0.05), standard mortality rate (AAPC=1.4%, P<0.05), and the standard DALY rate (AAPC=1.2%, P<0.05) of CRC in China showed an increasing trend. The incidence, mortality and DALY rates of males were higher than those of females, and gradually increased with age. Compared with 1990, the DALY, YLL, and YLD of CRC in 2019 increased by 134.3%, 127.69%, and 445.00%, and their corresponding standardized rates increased by 30.53%, 27.03%, and 187.29%, respectively, showing an overall upward trend.ConclusionsFrom 1990 to 2019, the standardized incidence rate and standardized mortality rate of colorectal cancer in China have had a continuously increasing trend, and males and the elderly are high-risk groups. To reduce the burden of colorectal cancer in China, effective measures should be taken for prevention and management.
Abstract: Objective To summarize the experience of combined coronary artery bypass grafting(CABG) and valve replacement. Methods From May 1997 to March 2006, the results of 80 consecutive patients undergone valve replacement (MVR) and CABG were analyzed. CABG were performed withtotal grafts in 159 grafts (mean 1.99 grafts), with mitral valve replacement (MVR) in 49 patients, with aortic valve replacement (AVR) in 18 patients, with MVR+AVR in 13 patients(mechanical valve replacement in 68 and biological valve replacement in 12). Results The hospital time after operation was 19.2±13.4d. The hospital mortality rate was 12.5% (10/80). The primary cause of death included low cardiac output yndrome, acute renal failure, nervous system complications ,ventricular fibrillation and cardiac arrest. Multivariate testing of preoperative and operative description identified that preoperative myocardial infarction, worse cardiac function, radiographic cardiac enlargement and low ejection fraction were associated with an increase of hospital mortality (P<0.05). There were postoperative complications including bleeding, severe ventricular arrhythmia, nervous system complications and incision infection. Followup of 58 patients (82.86%, range 6 to 60 months) showed the symptoms of angina pectoris and heart failure were significantly relieved. There were 2 longterm deaths (cerebral infarction and lung infection). Conclusion Combined CABG and valve replacement is an effective way for treatment of coronary artery and valvular heart disease. Improving the heart function preoperatively, strengthening myocardial protection, shortening operation and myocardial ischemia time, and complete revascularization are the key factors for success operation.
Objective To retrospectively analyze the characteristics and death causes among the Wenchuan earthquake victims in The Third People’s Hospital of Chengdu so as to provide information for reducing mortality in future earthquake disasters. Methods The analysis was based on the data provided by the Department of Information, the Medical Record Library, and the Emergency Room of the hospital through July 12. Microsoft EXCEL was used for data input and SPSS 13.0 was used for statistical analyses. Results Through July 12, 9 (1.57%) out of the 575 wounded patients died, comprising 3 males and 6 females. Of those, 5 died in the outpatient department. The death causes were all related to severe cerebral injuries. The other 4 died in the inpatient department and the death causes were related to severe underlying illnesses and infection. Conclusion Screening and early treatment for cerebral injuries is very important in the period directly following the earthquake. Later, more attention should be paid to the treatment of underlying illnesses as well as the prevention and control of infection.
Objective To investigate development and perspectives of brain death donation and transplantation. Methods The related literatures about the research of brain dead donors were reviewed. Results Brain death effects hemodynamic stability, hormonal changes, neuroimmunologic effects,and unleashes a cascade of inflammatory events, which may affect quality of graft, graft survival, and patient outcome. Moreover, the exact mechanism linked to brain death is incompletely understood. Conclusions The pathological physiology changes of brain dead donors has important impact on graft outcomes. However, subsequent work remains to be done.
The quality of a donor liver after cardiac death is closely associated with energy metabolism during preservation. Ex vivo mechanical perfusion has broad application prospects because this technique can help energy metabolism and repair ischemia injury of donors′ livers. Some core issues are presented in this review in order to provide references for propelling secure application of liver transplantation based on donation after cardiac death.
