低钾血症对颅脑创伤患者预后的影响

目的 探讨低钾血症在颅脑创伤患者中的发病情况及其与预后的关系。方法 2010 年6月至2013 年6 月共有168 例住院期间出现低钾血症且年龄≥18 岁的颅脑创伤患者纳入研究。依据低钾血症严重程度的不同,将患者分成轻度组（3.00mmol/L≤血钾＜3.50mmol/L）、中度组（2.50mmol/L≤血钾＜3.00mmol/L）和重度组（血钾＜2.50mmol/L）,各组均采用患者血钾的最低值进行数据分析。高钠血症和低磷血症分别被定义为血钠＞147.00mmol/L 和血磷＜0.80mmol/L。结果 受试患者的血钾在1.10~3.40mmol/L,平均2.90mmol/L。当血钾出现最低值时,与其余两组比较,重度组患者具有更高的血钠和更低的血磷水平（均P＜0.01）。与轻度组（10.5%）或中度组（25.7%）相比,重度组患者的病死率（82.1%）显著上升（均P＜0.01）。多变量逻辑回归分析结果显示,低格拉斯哥昏迷评分（OR=1.28,95%CI=1.12~1.42,P＜0.01）、低血钾（OR=5.57,95%CI=2.76~10.93,P＜0.01）、低血磷（OR=2.76,95%CI=1.11~7.25,P＜0.01）以及高血尿素氮（OR=1.16,95%CI=1.07~1.24,P＜0.01）是导致患者死亡的独立危险因素。结论 颅脑创伤患者是出现低钾血症的高危人群,重度低钾血症的患者更容易合并高钠血症和低磷血症。重度低钾血症和低磷血症是颅脑创伤患者死亡的独立危险因素。

Distribution function estimates by Wasserstein metric and Bernstein approximation for C-1 functions

The aim of the paper is to estimate the density functions or distribution functions measured by Wasserstein metric, a typical kind of statistical distances, which is usually required in the statistical learningBased on the classical Bernstein approximation, a scheme is presented.To get the error estimates of the scheme, the problem turns to estimating the L1 norm of the Bernstein approximation for monotone C-1functions, which was rarely discussed in the classical approximation theoryFinally, we get a probability estimate by the statistical distance.     

Hydrolysis kinetics of silane coupling agents studied by near-infrared spectroscopy plus partial least squares model

Abstract

A method of Fourier transform near-infrared (FT-NIR) spectroscopy combined with partial least squares (PLS) model was successfully applied to investigate the hydrolysis kinetics of four kinds of silane coupling agents (phenyltriethoxysilane, vinyltriethoxysilane, 3-mercaptopropyltriethoxysilane, 3-chloropropyltriethoxysilane) in an acid-catalyzed EtOH system. The fast scanning speed and high sensitivity of the FT-NIR spectroscopy, and the powerful data processing ability of the PLS, enabled the method to quantitatively and accurately catch the fast changing H₂O concentration during the hydrolysis processes without delay, realizing the study of the fast-paced hydrolysis reactions of the silane coupling agents. The results showed that electrophilic substitution occurred in the hydrolysis reactions, which followed second-order reactions and greatly depend on the catalyst concentration and reaction temperature. The hydrolysis rate constants, activation energy, and Arrhenius Frequency factors were gained. In conclusion, the FT-NIR PLS model is a powerful tool for hydrolysis kinetics researching of the silane coupling agents.     

Anti‐static Agent Containing Zinc Oxide and its Modification for PA6 Fiber

A new anti‐static agent was synthesized from zinc oxide‐adipic acid‐polyethylene glycol and caprolactam by three‐step reactions. The antistatic agent (called poly(ether ester amide zinc oxide) or PEEAZ) was analyzed by IR and DSC. The results showed that zinc oxide existed in the main chain of PEEAZ. The glass temperature and melt temperature of poly(ether ester amide zinc oxide) (referred to as PEEAZ in the following) decreased with increasing poly(ether ester zinc oxide) increasing in PEEAZ. Antistatic PA6 fiber was obtained by adding PEEAZ 2–8% (wt/wt) to PA6 during blend spinning. The specific resistance and the static half‐value period of PA6 fiber was less than 10⁹Ω · cm and 60 sec, respectively. Excellent antistatic property remained after being washed 30 times.     

Fabrication of chitosan microcapsules via layer-by-layer assembly for loading and in vitro release of heparin

The heparin-loaded microcapsules were successfully prepared by layer-by-layer deposition of chitosan (CHI) and heparin (Hep). Film growth was confirmed by the reversal of ζ-potentials during polysaccharide deposition. Both scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscope evidenced the integrity of (CHI/Hep)₅ capsules after the removal of cores. By assembling the carriers with chitosan that are inherently degradable, the capsules were engineered to degrade specifically in the presence of lysozyme. It was demonstrated that the loaded heparin was released from the capsules over a long period of time when being incubated in lysozyme solution. With these results, such CHI/Hep capsules may have a great potential as controlled release carrier for heparin.     

Determination of 20(S)-protopanaxadiol in rat plasma by LC-MS/MS and its application to the pharmacokinetic study: A comparative study of its solution and two oral formulations

A high-performance liquid chromatography — tandem mass spectrometry method was used in a comparative pharmacokinetic study on 20(S)-protopanaxadiol in its solution, pharmacosomes and hydroxy-propyl-β-cyclodextrin inclusion compound. The calibration linearity range was 2.5–5000 ng/mL and the limit of quantification was 2.5 ng/mL. The intra- and inter-assay coefficients of variation were less than 7% and the recoveries were 67.4, 63.3 and 69.6% at 5, 250 and 4500 ng/mL. In contrast to 20(S)-protopanaxadiol solution, its pharmacosomes and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin inclusion compound improved the oral bioavailability to different extent and meanwhile were much safer in clinical use.     

Studies on self-assembly hydrothermal fabrication and thermal stability of Chromium oxyhydroxide nanomaterials synthesised from Chromium oxide colloids

Chromium oxyhydroxide nanomaterials with narrow size-distribution were synthesised through a simple hydrothermal method. Experimental conditions, such as reaction duration and pH values of the precipitation process and hydrothermal treatment played important roles in determining the nature of the final product chromium oxyhydroxide nanomaterials. The effect of these synthesis parameters were studied with the assistance of X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analyses. This research has developed a controllable synthesis of Chromium oxyhydroxide nanomaterials from Chromium oxide colloids.     

Excellent electrochemical performance of nitrogen-enriched hierarchical porous carbon electrodes prepared using nano-CaCO3 as template

Recently, tremendous research efforts have been concentrated on developing high-performance electrode materials to meet the ever-increasing energy and power demands in supercapacitors. Herein, we presented a high-capacity supercapacitor material based on nitrogen-enriched hierarchical porous carbons (NHPCs) synthesized by the carbonization of melamine formaldehyde resins using eco-friendly and inexpensive nano-CaCO₃ as template. The effects of carbonization temperature and template content on the porous structure and electrochemical characteristics were compared and discussed in detail. The prepared NHPCs possessed large surface area up to 834 m² g^?1 and high nitrogen content up to 20.94 wt %. As electrode material for supercapacitors, NHPCs exhibited superior electrochemical performances with high specific capacitance (190 F g^?1 at 20 A g^?1), outstanding rate capability (80 %), and excellent cycling stability (over 2,000 cycles at 5 A g^?1) in 1 M sulfuric acid media. The excellent electrochemical performances are due to the synergic effects of unique hierarchical porous microstructure, abundant nitrogen and oxygen functionalities, as well as high degree of graphitization framework.
