ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the clinical value of machine learning (ML) for predicting the neurological outcome of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), and to develop a prediction model. MethodsWe searched the PubMed, Web of Science, EMbase, CNKI, Wanfang database from January 1, 2011 to November 24, 2021. Studies on ML for predicting neurological outcomes in OHCA pateints were collected. Two researchers independently screened the literature, extracted the data and evaluated the bias of the included literature, evaluated the accuracy of different models and compared the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). ResultsA total of 20 studies were included. Eleven of the studies were from open source databases and nine were from retrospective studies. Sixteen studies directly predicted OHCA neurological outcomes, and four predicted OHCA neurological outcomes after target temperature management. A total of seven ML algorithms were used, among which neural network was the ML algorithm with the highest frequency (n=5), followed by support vector machine and random forest (n=4). Three papers used multiple algorithms. The most frequently used input characteristic was age (n=19), followed by heart rate (n=17) and gender (n=13). A total of 4 studies compared the predictive value of ML with other classical statistical models, and the AUC value of ML model was higher than that of classical statistical models. ConclusionExisting evidence suggests that ML can more accurately predict OHCA nervous system outcomes, and the predictive performance of ML is superior to traditional statistical models in certain situations.
ObjectiveTo investigate the mid-to-long term quality of life (QOL) and influencing factors in the patients after heart valve replacement.MethodsConvenient sampling method was used to recruit 224 patients who had heart valve replacement surgery in our hospital from June 2008 to June 2017. There were 63 males and 161 females, aged 18-83 (51.49±10.60) years. General information questionnaire and MOS SF-36 scale were used to collect data. Univariate analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were used to analyze and determine the influencing factors for the QOL.ResultsThe total score of QOL of 224 patients was 71.78±17.60 points. All these scores of the patients were significantly lower than those of the general population of Chengdu (P<0.05) except the dimension of vitality. The QOL scores differences between sex, marital status, family income, working condition, the occurrence of anticoagulant complications and other complications were significant (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that family income, working condition, the occurrence of anticoagulant complications and other complications could be included in the regression model, explaining 26.8% of total variance. ConclusionThe mid-to-long term QOL is lower in the patients after heart valve replacement. Family income, working condition, anticoagulant complications and other complications are the main influencing factors for mid-to-long term QOL for patients after heart valve replacement.
【Abstract】Objective To establish animal model of orthotopic liver transplantation(OLT) in miniature pigs with high standardization, reproducibility and stability. Methods OLTs were performed without venovenous bypass in Bama miniature pigs. The survival rates and the changes of hemodynamics and metabolism were investigated. Results Twenty OLTs were performed between pairs of miniature pigs. The mean operative time and anhepatic phase were (181±25.8) min and (28.4±3.2) min respectively. During the anhepatic phase, dramatic hemodynamics and metabolism changes accompanied hyperkalemia identified. MAP and CVP decreased from (14.59±1.68) kPa and (0.66±0.11) kPa to (5.87±0.91) kPa and (0.27±0.10) kPa respectively, while temperature, pH, BE and HCO3- were significantly reduced (P＜0.05) and HR and K+ in serum were remarkable increased. After reperfusion, the disorder of hemodynamics and metabolism described above recovered gradually. 1week survival rate was 90%. Sixteen animals survived more than 2 weeks. AST, ALT and TBIL were significantly increased and reached the peak level on postoperative 1 day. From postoperative 2 day, AST, ALT and TBIL began to decrease and reached postanaesthesia level on postoperative 7 day. Conclusion The animal model of OLT without venovenous bypass in miniature pig, with its high standardization, reproducibility and stability, is an ideal one for series studies related to liver transplantation.
Objective To evaluate the safety and efficacy of potassium and magnesium supplement with potassium aspartate and magnesium aspartate injection in gastrointestinal surgery patients during absolute fasting．Methods A multicenter randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted in 111 patients after gastrointestinal surgery. For trial group，56 patients were given potassium aspartate and magnesium aspartate injection （Panangin®） in half of the total potassium replenished dose and the rest half of the potassium replenished dose was given in 10% potassium chloride injection．For control group，55 patients were given 10% potassium chloride injection for the total dose of potassium replenished．Such treatments maintained five consecutive days after surgical operation．Clinical observations were performed until patients were discharged from the hospitals．Results Before the intervention，there were no significant differences for the baseline between two groups （P＞0.05）．There was no significant difference for the serum potassium level between two groups （P＞0.05） after intervention．The amount of urinary potassium （mmol/24 h） for patients in the trial group was significantly lower than that in the control group during treatment after operation．The serum magnesium level of control group was much lower than that of control group （P＜0.05）. In the clinical observation process，no drug-related adverse event was observed．Conclusions The supplementary effect of potassium and magnesium for potassium aspartate and magnesium aspartate injection in patients with gastrointestinal surgery during absolute fasting is significant，and superior to potassium chloride injection for potassium supplement．Potassium aspartate and magnesium aspartate injection is a safe and appropriate choice for patients with potassium depletion．
