Previous studies on PCT for urinary tract infections (UTI) have focused primarily minors. This study investigated the predictive value of neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), C-reactive protein (CRP) level and procalcitonin (PCT) in adult patients with bacteriuria IUC.
Background:The aim of this study was to establish the reference intervals (RIs) total bilirubin (TBIL), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate transaminase (AST), and creatinine (CREA) for apparently healthy elderly (Han ethnicity) in Shuyang, China. Material/Methods:A 54 912 blood specimens from residents age 65-104 years were collected by standard procedures Shuyang county Jiangsu province.TBIL, ALT, AST, CREA each participant determined automatic biochemical analyzer.Distribution...
BACKGROUND:The aim of this study was to calculate 95% reference intervals and double-sided limits serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) according the CLSI EP28-A3 guideline. MATERIAL AND METHODS:Serum AFP CEA values were measured in samples from 26 000 healthy subjects Shuyang area receiving general health checkups. The upper calculated by using MedCalc. RESULTS:We provided continuous 20 years old 90 for CEA. were: AFP, 1.31–7.89 ng/ml (males) 1.01–7.10 (females); CEA,...
Background The attention towards the relationship between chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and dietary intake is escalating. However, effects of niacin on COPD in middle older individuals remains unclear. This study aimed to illuminate connection COPD. Methods cross-sectional analyzed 7,170 participants from National Health Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) spanning years 2013 2018. Participants were categorized into four groups based quartiles intake. To examine association...
Background: LDLC equations have varying levels of underestimation for the calculated LDLC. Therefore, underestimating should be avoided as much possible. We need to establish that underestimate little Methods: established with a healthy cohort from Shuyang Hospital and validated an unselected patient The Second People's Lianyungang. novel by using regression equation. relationship between two markers was analysed Pearson's approach. 95% limits measuring agreement within ± 2 SD performed...
Background:We found that it is not necessary to simultaneously detect both creatinine (CREA) and urea until the concentration of CREA lower than certain level.To reduce testing, we suggest measuring only when or estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) exceeds a predetermined limit.
BACKGROUND:Interferon-gamma release assays have not been validated in active TB among pregnant women. Therefore, the objective of this retrospective study was to estimate diagnostic value T-SPOT.TB MATERIAL AND METHODS:Between May 2012 and 2015, 26 consecutive women with suspected were enrolled our study. The clinicopathological characteristics results reviewed analyzed. RESULTS:Pregnant patients divided into a group (n=21) Non-TB (n=5). In group, 5 had pulmonary TB, TB+ extrapulmonary 11...
Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) to platelet ratio index (APRI) serves as a parameter in evaluating liver fibrosis current clinical practice. However, reference standard (reference intervals, RIs) or baseline levels of APRI have not been previously reported. The purpose this paper is establish the intervals apparently healthy elderly people from region Shuyang, China.Blood specimens were collected local residents (selected 51,263 Han Shuyang Chinese 65 97 years old, 32.97% males and 67.03%...
