Risk factor for intestinal carriage of carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii and the impact on subsequent infection among patients in an intensive care unit: an observationa... by Li Wei, Lin Cai, Shan Gao, Fu Qiao, Wenzhi Huang, Shichao Zhu, Yan Kang, Chuanmin Tao, Zhiyong Zong

“…A case–control study was performed to analyse risk factors of the acquisition of CRAB intestinal carriage in ICU using multiple logistic regression. A retrospective cohort study was performed to address whether intestinal CRAB carriage could lead to an increased likelihood of subsequent CRAB infection using subdistribution hazard model regarding death in the ICU as a competing risk event.Results CRAB intestinal carriage was detected in 6.87% (66/961; 95% CI 5.27% to 8.47%) of patients on ICU admission, whereas 11.97% (115/961; 95% CI 9.91% to 14.02%) of patients acquired CRAB intestinal carriage during the ICU stay. …”

Predictive Value of Lung Ultrasound Scores Combined with Serum ANGPTL4 Levels on Severity and Prognosis of Neonatal Respiratory Distress Syndrome by Wang L, Ji P, Yin J, Xue M, Wang J, Wan Y, Dong B

“…In both groups, lung ultrasound scores and serum ANGPTL4 levels, lung ultrasound scores and serum ANGPTL4 levels of newborns with NRDS of different severity, the risk factors affecting the poor prognosis of NRDS neonates, and the value of serum ANGPTL4 levels combined with lung ultrasound scores in determining the severity and prognosis of newborns with NRDS were analyzed.Results: The NRDS groups had higher lung ultrasound scores and serum ANGPTL4 levels, and lower Apgar scores than the control group; lung ultrasound scores and serum ANGPTL4 levels were higher in the moderate and severe groups than in the mild group, and those were higher in the severe group than in the moderate group (all p < 0.05). The logistic regression analysis showed that high lung ultrasound scores, and high serum ANGPTL4 levels were risk factors for NRDS poor prognosis (OR > 1, p < 0.05), and high Apgar scores are the protective factor for poor prognosis in NRDS neonates (OR < 1, p < 0.05). …”

The Role of Mature Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor and Its Precursor in Predicting Early-Onset Insomnia in Stroke Patients Experiencing Early Neurological Deterioration by Shi G, Yu P, Wang Z, Xu M, Guo M, Wang X, Zhou R

“…Those with EOI had significantly lower levels of mBDNF and the mBDNF/proBDNF ratio compared to those without EOI (all p < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that male gender (p = 0.026), Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD) scores (p < 0.001), mBDNF (p = 0.009), and the mBDNF/proBDNF ratio (p < 0.001) were independent predictors of EOI in END patients. …”
