Background and aims: Acute kidney injury (AKI) occurs in 15-50% of trauma patients and worsens outcomes. Early identification of high-risk individuals may enable reno-protective strategies. Urinary tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 (TIMP-2) and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7 (IGFBP7) have shown promise in predicting AKI in various settings, but their utility in critically ill trauma patients remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the combined urinary biomarker product (TIMP-2) × (IGFBP7) for early AKI prediction in this group.
Patients and methods: This prospective observational study was conducted at a tertiary care center in India. Critically ill trauma patients aged 18-65 years admitted to the critical care unit were enrolled and followed for AKI development (KDIGO criteria). Injury Severity Score (ISS) and APACHE II scores were recorded at admission. Urine samples collected at admission and 24 hours post-admission were analyzed for TIMP-2 and IGFBP7 using ELISA-based kits. Associations between biomarker levels, AKI occurrence, and need for renal replacement therapy (RRT) were assessed, along with clinical and hemodynamic parameters.
Results: Seventy-nine patients were included; 14 (17.7%) developed AKI. Median APACHE II scores were 11 (7-18) vs 9 (7-11), and ISS scores 34 (25-34) vs 25 (25-34) in AKI and non-AKI groups, respectively. The ROC-AUC for (TIMP-2) × (IGFBP7) was 0.49 at admission and 0.57 at 24 hours. A 24-hour cut-off of 0.008 (ng/mL)²/1,000 yielded 85.7% sensitivity, 27.7% specificity, NPV 90%, and PPV 20.3%.
Conclusion: Urinary (TIMP-2) × (IGFBP7) measured at admission did not show any significant discriminating power. However Urinary (TIMP-2) × (IGFBP7) measured 24 hours after admission may help identify critically ill trauma patients at risk of AKI.

背景和目的:急性肾损伤(AKI)发生在15-50%的创伤患者中,并使预后恶化。早期识别高风险个体可能有助于采取肾保护策略。尿组织金属蛋白酶抑制剂-2 (TIMP-2)和胰岛素样生长因子结合蛋白7 (IGFBP7)在各种情况下预测AKI有希望,但它们在危重创伤患者中的应用仍不清楚。本研究旨在评估联合尿生物标志物产物(TIMP-2) × (IGFBP7)在该组早期AKI预测中的作用。患者和方法:这项前瞻性观察研究是在印度三级保健中心进行的。年龄在18-65岁的重症外伤患者被纳入重症监护病房,并随访AKI的发展(KDIGO标准)。入院时记录损伤严重程度评分(ISS)和APACHE II评分。入院时和入院后24小时收集尿液样本,使用elisa试剂盒分析TIMP-2和IGFBP7。评估生物标志物水平、AKI发生率和肾替代治疗(RRT)需求之间的关系,以及临床和血流动力学参数。结果:纳入79例患者;14例(17.7%)发生AKI。AKI组和非AKI组中位APACHE II评分分别为11(7-18)和9 (7-11),ISS评分分别为34(25-34)和25(25-34)。入院时(TIMP-2) × (IGFBP7)的ROC-AUC为0.49,24小时时为0.57。24小时临界值为0.008 (ng/mL)²/ 1000,敏感性为85.7%,特异性为27.7%,NPV为90%,PPV为20.3%。结论:入院时测尿(TIMP-2) × (IGFBP7)无显著鉴别力。然而,入院后24小时测量尿(TIMP-2) × (IGFBP7)可能有助于识别有AKI风险的危重创伤患者。Parthiban M, Cherian A, Kundra P, Priyamvada PS, Bobby Z, Senthilnathan M.尿液生物标志物TIMP-2和IGFBP7在重症创伤患者急性肾损伤中的作用:前瞻性观察研究。中华检验医学杂志;2015;29(11):936-941。

Background and aims: Chest X-ray (CXR) and computed tomography (CT) are established imaging modalities for patients in respiratory distress, and lung ultrasound (LUS) has emerged as an efficient point-of-care alternative. This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of LUS and CXR in critically ill patients, utilizing CT thorax as the reference standard.
Patient and methods: A prospective observational study was conducted in a tertiary care intensive care unit (ICU) involving mechanically ventilated adult patients requiring CT thorax. Before the CT, patients underwent portable CXR and LUS. Diagnostic performance metrics were calculated using sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), and AUC-ROC for pneumothorax, pleural effusion, consolidation, collapse, and pulmonary edema for CXR and LUS compared to CT. Inter-rater agreement was assessed using Cohen's κ.
Results: A total of 110 patients were included in this study. Overall, the performance of LUS was significantly superior to CXR for diagnosing various pathologies. Lung ultrasound exhibited 100% sensitivity and 97% specificity, outperforming CXR (66.7% sensitivity) for the detection of pneumothorax. For pleural effusion, LUS achieved 100% sensitivity and specificity, reflecting perfect concordance with CT, especially for moderate and severe pleural effusions, while CXR had an accuracy of only 68.18%. Lung consolidation and collapse were identified with 100% sensitivity and PPV by LUS. Furthermore, the accuracy of LUS in diagnosing pulmonary edema was 96.4%, with a specificity of 95.3% and an NPV of 100%.
Conclusion: Across five pathologies that were evaluated in this study, LUS consistently outperformed CXR in diagnostic accuracy and concordance with CT thorax.

背景和目的:胸部x线(CXR)和计算机断层扫描(CT)是呼吸窘迫患者的既定成像方式,肺超声(LUS)已成为一种有效的护理点替代方案。本研究旨在评价LUS和CXR在危重患者中的诊断价值,以CT胸为参考标准。患者和方法:在三级重症监护病房(ICU)进行了一项前瞻性观察研究,涉及需要进行机械通气的成年患者CT胸。CT前,患者行便携式CXR和LUS检查。采用敏感性、特异性、阳性预测值(PPV)、阴性预测值(NPV)和AUC-ROC对气胸、胸腔积液、实变、塌陷和肺水肿进行诊断,并与CT进行比较。采用Cohen’s κ评价评分者间一致性。结果:本研究共纳入110例患者。总体而言,LUS在诊断各种病理方面的表现明显优于CXR。肺超声检测气胸的灵敏度为100%,特异度为97%,优于CXR(66.7%)。对于胸腔积液,LUS的敏感性和特异性均达到100%,与CT具有较好的一致性,尤其对于中重度胸腔积液,而CXR的准确率仅为68.18%。LUS检测肺实变和萎陷的灵敏度和PPV均为100%。LUS诊断肺水肿的准确率为96.4%,特异性为95.3%,NPV为100%。结论:在本研究评估的五种病理中,LUS在诊断准确性和与CT胸的一致性方面始终优于CXR。如何引用本文:Al Tayar AS, Salem HA, Abdelshafey EE, Rashwan MA, Khalil MF, Alwafi HA,等。肺超声、ct和x线对危重机械通气患者常见病理诊断的比较分析——一项前瞻性观察研究。中华检验医学杂志;2015;29(10):807-814。

Background and aims: Caregivers of intensive care unit (ICU) patients with advanced chronic illness face significant psychological stress and information gaps regarding palliative care. Generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools like ChatGPT and Google Gemini may offer scalable, personalized educational support. This study aimed to compare the quality of academic content generated by these AI chatbots in terms of readability, sentiment, understandability, actionability, and expert-rated accuracy and completeness.
Materials and methods: On December 10, 2024, ChatGPT and Google Gemini (free browser versions) were queried with a standardized prompt on ICU palliative care for caregivers. Outputs were evaluated for readability (eight validated indices), sentiment polarity (online tool), understandability and actionability, patient education materials assessment tool for printable materials (PEMAT-P), and expert panel (n = 7) assessments of accuracy and completeness using a 5-point Likert scale. Statistical comparisons were conducted using paired t-tests.
Results: ChatGPT and Gemini produced content of comparable readability (12.96 vs 13.21). Sentiment scores favored ChatGPT (+7.8 vs -39.1). Both chatbots achieved similar scores in understandability and actionability (91.7 and 80%, respectively). Accuracy scores were similar (p = 0.36), while completeness was significantly higher for ChatGPT (95% CI 0.08-1.07; p = 0.025).
Conclusion: Both AI tools generated content suitable for caregiver education in ICUs. ChatGPT demonstrated more neutral sentiment and greater completeness, supporting a potential role in critical care communication and education of caregivers in the ICU.
