Meta Analysis[Granulocyte-monocyte colony-stimulating factor for the treatment of sepsis: a meta analysis].
To systematically assess the effects and safety of granulocyte-monocyte colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) in the treatment of sepsis. ⋯ The current evidence shows that, compare with the conventional therapy the GM-CSF has the benefit of improving immune function, reducing the complications of infection, and shortening the duration of mechanical ventilation. However, there is no difference in reducing mortality and adverse event, or shortening the length of stay in hospital or ICU and SOFA score with the use of GM-CSF.

Randomized Controlled Trial[Clinical study on plasma soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 in patients with sepsis].
To observe the dynamic changes in plasma soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1), and to approach the effect on predicting outcome of the patient with sepsis combined with sepsis-related organ failure assessment (SOFA) score. ⋯ The plasma sTREM-1 concentration was elevated at the early stage in patients with sepsis. Dynamic changes in sTREM-1 level combined with SOFA score may be helpful in predicting outcome of the patient with sepsis.

The role of spleen in vagus nerve stimulation for treatment against septic shock in rats.
To investigate the role of spleen in vagus nerve stimulation for treatment against septic shock in rats and its underlying mechanism. ⋯ Vagus nerve stimulation fails to protect against septic shock in rats subjected to splenectomy or common celiac branch vagotomy, indicating that the spleen may be a vital target of the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway which is functionally linking with the spleen via the common celiac branch of vagus nerve.

[Expression of soluble triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 in septic patients and its relation with prognosis].
To approach the relationship between the contents of soluble form of triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (sTREM-1) and prognosis in patients with sepsis. ⋯ The serum sTREM-1 are elevated at early stage in sepsis patients. It can reflect the severity of the condition. The sTREM-1 level, which might be considered as a potential prognostic factor for septic patients, is significantly correlated with APACHEII score.

[Analysis of the occurrence of pulmonary embolism in 20 years in single medical center].
To evaluate the correlation of pulmonary embolism (PE) and original diseases by retrospectively analysis of the patients for 20 years in single medical center. ⋯ The PE is difficult in diagnosis, but with increasing cognizance, the diagnostic rate of PE has been increased. Patients with history of surgical operation, DVT or neoplasm, who complain dyspnea without known cause, chest pain or hemoptysis, should be subjected to further examinations, as to confirm the diagnosis of PE, then the survival rate of the patients with PE may be elevated.
