[Measurement of brachial artery velocity variation and inferior vena cava variability to estimate fluid responsiveness].
To investigate the accuracy and feasibility of brachial artery peak velocity variation (ΔVpeakbrach) and inferior vena cava variability (VIVC) as indicators of fluid responsiveness in critically ill patients. ⋯ ΔVpeakbrach and VIVC are reliable indicators for predicting volume responsiveness in critical patients.

[Analysis of death risk factors for nosocomial infection patients in an ICU: a retrospective review of 864 patients from 2009 to 2015].
To investigate the mortality risk factors of nosocomial infection patients in intensive care unit (ICU), and to guide clinicians to take effective control measures. ⋯ Prolonged ICU stay, nosocomial infection with secondary sepsis and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome were the leading causes of death for nosocomial infection patients in ICU. Prolonged ICU stay, APACHE II score, SOFA score, and PCT level could effectively predict death risks for nosocomial infection patients.

[The prognostic value of serum procalcitonin on severity of illness in non-sepsis critically ill patients].
To evaluate the correlation between serum procalcitonin (PCT) level and severity of diseases caused by different kinds of stress factors, and to identify the prognostic value of PCT on the prognosis in non-sepsis critically ill patients. ⋯ Serum PCT level was positively correlated with severity of illness in non-sepsis critically ill patients, which had predicted value on prognosis. Trauma stress can lead to higher PCT level than stroke stress and non-infection inflammation stress can.

Observational Study[Value of serum miR-155-5p and miR-133a-3p expression for the diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of sepsis].
To explore the value of serum microRNA-155-5p and -133a-3p (miR-155-5p and miR-133a-3p) expression for the diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of sepsis. ⋯ The expression of serum miR-155-5p and miR-133a-3p may be used as specific indicators for the diagnosis of sepsis. And the expression of miR-155-5p can be used as independent impact factor for the estimation of sepsis prognosis.

[Early diagnostic value of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin and interleukin-18 in patients with sepsis-induced acute kidney injury].
To evaluate the early diagnosis value of blood neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) and interleukin-18 (IL-18) in patients with sepsis-induced acute kidney injury (AKI). ⋯ NGAL and IL-18 in the early prediction of sepsis patients with AKI are better than SCr, and NGAL was most sensitive. Therefore, NGAL can be used as an early biomarker for the diagnosis of AKI in patients with sepsis.
