Lactate dehydrogenase to albumin ratio (LAR) is a novel predictor of fatal outcome in patients with SFTS
Background: Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is a serious infectious disease. This study explored the prognostic value of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) to albumin (ALB) ratio (LAR) levels in fatal outcomes of the disease. Methods: Two-hundred and nine patients with SFTS were enrolled in this study. Based on the prognosis, patients were divided into survival and deceased groups. Laboratory metrics were compared by univariate Cox re…
Methodological comparison of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid-based detection of respiratory pathogens in diagnosis of bacterium/fungus-associated pneumonia in critically ill patients
Background Bacterium/fungus-associated pneumonia (BAP/FAP) is the prominent cause of high mortality and morbidity with important clinical impacts globally. Effective diagnostic methods and proper specimen types hopefully facilitate early diagnosis of pneumonia and prevent spread of drug-resistant bacteria/fungi among critically ill patients. Methods In the present study, 342 bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) samples were collected from critical…
Epidemiological, clinical, and laboratory features of patients infected with Elizabethkingia meningoseptica at a tertiary hospital in Hefei City, China
Background Elizabethkingia meningoseptica is a bacterium causing potential nosocomial infections and is associated with a high mortality rate; however, the date of patients in the Hefei population who have been diagnosed with this infection is generally limited. Purpose The clinical and laboratory data of patients from a tertiary hospital in Hefei City who had E. meningoseptica infection were evaluated in this retrospective analysis. Patients and…
Epidemiology, Drug Susceptibility, and Clinical Risk Factors in Patients With Invasive Aspergillosis
Background This study aimed to investigate the Aspergillus species distribution, antifungal sensitivities, clinical characteristics, and risk factors of patients with invasive aspergillosis (IA) in a tertiary teaching hospital in Anhui Province. Methods In the present study, 156 Aspergillus isolates were collected from patients admitted to a 2,800-bed comprehensive hospital between January 2019 and April 2021. The epidemiology of Aspergillus spec…
Magnetic Seizure Therapy Compared to Electroconvulsive Therapy for Schizophrenia
Background: Magnetic seizure therapy (MST) is a potential alternative to electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). However, reports on the use of MST for patients with schizophrenia, particularly in developing countries, which is a main indication for ECT, are limited. Methods: From February 2017 to July 2018, 79 inpatients who met the DSM-5 criteria for schizophrenia were randomized to receive 10 sessions of MST (43 inpatients) or ECT (36 inpatients) ove…
An Erythrocyte Membrane-Associated Antigen, PvTRAg-26 of Plasmodium vivax
Background: Plasmodium tryptophan-rich (TR) proteins have been proposed as potential vaccine candidate antigens. Among them, P. vivax tryptophan-rich antigens (PvTR-Ags), which have positionally conserved tryptophan residues in a TR domain, are highly antigenic in humans. Several of these antigens, including PvTRAg-26, have exhibited erythrocyte-binding activities. Methods: Subclasses of IgG antibodies against PvTRAg-26 were detected by enzyme-li…
A Low Viral Dose in Covid-19 Patient
SARS-CoV-2 outbreak has attracted global attention. Verifying the presence of viral RNA is the gold standard for the diagnosis of COVID-19. However, RT-qPCR diagnosis often fails to catch infected patients, because of inconsistent swab sample collection. Here we report a case that showed 5 consecutive negative and 1 low-viral- dose RT-qPCR results during illness spanning over 20 days. Clinical symptoms suggest SARS-CoV-2 infection with typical gr…

Lactate dehydrogenase to albumin ratio (LAR) is a novel predictor of fatal outcome in patients with SFTS
Background: Severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) is a serious infectious disease. This study explored the prognostic value of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) to albumin (ALB) ratio (LAR) levels in fatal outcomes of the disease. Methods: Two-hundred and nine patients with SFTS were enrolled in this study. Based on the prognosis, patients were divided into survival and deceased groups. Laboratory metrics were compared by univariate Cox re…
