Objective To explore the methods of early diagnosis of arteriosclerosis obliterans of lower extremity (ASOLE). Methods The related literatures on ASOLE detection means adopted clinically were reviewed, and their advantages and disadvantages were compared.Results Asymptomatic ASOLE could be discovered by determination of ankle brachial index (ABI) and toe brachial index (TBI), which was a good index for arterial function assessment of lower extremity. Pulse wave velocity (PWV) was more vulnerable and less sensitive than ABI, and therefore more suitable for screening of a large sample. ASI was an index to assess arterial structure and function, and it had a good correlation with PWV. Flow-mediated dilation (FMD) was a measurement evaluating the function of endothelial cell; Pulse wave measurement was simple, sensitive, and its result was reliable. Color Doppler ultrasonography could localizate the lesion and determine the degree of stenosis at the same time. Multiple-slice CT angiography (MSCTA) was more accurate than color Doppler ultrasonography, but its inherent shortcomings, such as nephrotoxicity of contrast agent, was still need to be resolved. 3D-contrast enhancement magnetic resonance angiography (CEMRA) had little nephrotoxicity, but a combination of other imaging methods was necessary. Microcirculation detections required high consistency of the measurement environment, but they were simple, sensitive and noninvasive, and therefore could be used for screening of ASO. Conclusion Publicity and education of highrisk groups, and reasonable selection of all kinds of detection means, are helpful to improve the early diagnosis of ASOLE.
Objective To evaluate the diagnostic efficiency of serum soluble CD26 (sCD26) on the diagnosis of colorectal cancer. Methods The serum sCD26 concentration of 59 colorectal cancer patients, 51 colorectal benign disease patients, and 41 healthy volunteers were detected by ELISA. The diagnostic efficiency of sCD26 and carcinoma embryonic antigen (CEA) was assessed by receiver operating characteristics (ROC) analysis. The association between sCD26 and colorectal cancer was assessed by logistic regression which included CEA in the model. Results Increased serum sCD26 was observed in colorectal cancer patients (P<0.01), but the differences of sCD26 in different Dukes stages were not statistic significance (P=0.78). The area under cure (AUC) of sCD26 confirmed by ROC analysis was 0.72 〔95% confidence interval (CI):0.63-0.82, P<0.01〕. The diagnostic sensitivity and specificity for sCD26 at 526 μg/L, the optimal diagnostic threshold, were 0.59 (95% CI: 0.48-0.72) and 0.80 (95% CI: 0.67-0.90), respectively. Positive serum sCD26 was associated with colorectal cancer after adjusted for CEA with odds ration (OR) 5.17 (95% CI:1.72-15.53, P<0.01), as confirmed by logistic regression. Increased positive rate of serum sCD26 was observed in patients at Dukes A stage (P=0.03), but not Dukes B, C, and D stage (P<0.05). Conclusions Serum sCD26 has high diagnostic performance for colorectal cancer. The association of sCD26 is independent of serum CEA. Compared to serum CEA, sCD26 has more potential to be an early biomarker for colorectal cancer diagnosis.
【Abstract】Objective To investigate the recent studies on the biocharacters of keratin family (e.g. genetic mutations and abnormal expressions) and their relationships with the malignant tumors. Methods The literatures of recent years on the biocharacters of keratin family (e.g. genetic mutations and abnormal expressions) and their relationships with the malignant tumors were reviewed. Results Keratin family is a kind of structural proteins in cell which plays an important role in cytomechanics and regulates cell-cycle. The mutations of keratin genes (mRNA) or the overexpression of keratin proteins would interfere with the order of cell-cycle or the integrity of cytomechanics, and lead to some diseases and malignant tumors finally. Conclusion The studies on biocharaters of keratin family (e.g. genetic mutations and abnormal expressions) are helpful in the diagnosis, staging and the evaluation of prognosis of some diseases and cancers, e.g. liver cirrhosis, breast cancer, rectum carcinoma, etc.
Objective To investigate the expression of oncostatin M (OSM) in patients with sepsis and its role in early recognition of sepsis. Methods Thirty-four patients with sepsis admitted in Shanxi Bethune Hospital fromJune 3, 2021 to January 18, 2022 were selected as a sepsis group, 15 patients with community acquired pneumonia (CAP) as a case control group, and 16 adults who underwent physical examination in the same period were selected as a healthy control group. The patients in the sepsis group were followed up for 28 days and divided into a survival group and a death group. The serum OSM level and its correlation with clinical indexes (white blood cell, neutrophil, lymphocyte, sequential organ failure assessment score and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ) were analyzed, and the diagnostic value of OSM expression level in the early identification of sepsis was analyzed. Results Compared with the case control group and the healthy control group, the expression level of OSM in the sepsis group was significantly higher [(502.07±209.93)pg/mL vs. (368.22±65.95)pg/mL and (382.09±73.04)pg/mL, P<0.05]. However, the high expression of OSM had no significant correlation with white blood cell, neutrophil, lymphocyte or disease severity score (P>0.05), and there was no significant difference in serum OSM level between the sepsis survival group and the death group. Compared with white blood cell count, the high expression of OSM has certain diagnostic value in the early identification of sepsis. The area under the receiver operator characteristic curve of OSM in predicting sepsis was 0.794 (95% confidence interval 0.666 - 0.922, P<0.05), with the sensitivity of 79.4% and the specificity of 73.3%. Conclusion The expression of OSM in patients with sepsis is significantly increased, and the high expression of OSM has a certain diagnostic value in the early identification of sepsis.
