[Feasibility of focused transthoracic echocardiography in intensive care unit performed by intensivists].
To assess the clinical applicability of focused transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) in intensive care unit (ICU) performed by intensivists and its impacts on clinical managements. ⋯ After a brief standard training in using echocardiographic system, intensivists can successfully performed and correctly interpreted a focused TTE for critically ill patients. Our study demonstrates that new information can be provided by focused TTE, which can alter management in a significant number of patients. The present study supports incorporating bedside goal-directed, focused TTE into intensivists' training programs in China.

[The predictive values of D-dimer for the early prognosis of the acute myocardial infarction (AMI): a review of 3134 AMI patients].
To investigate whether D-dimer could be an early warning signal for patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI), then may be helpful in risk assessment in emergency department. ⋯ D-dimer was correlated with the early prognosis of patients with myocardial infarction, but was not correlated with the time from onset to death. The rise in D-dimer at the early stage of AMI may be helpful to indicate the critical condition of the AMI patients.

[Protective effect of melatonin on myocardial injury in severely- burned rats].
To investigate the protective effect of melatonin (MLT) on myocardial injury in severely-burned rats and its mechanism. ⋯ MLT treatment exerts the protective effect on myocardial injury in severely-burned rats, which is attributed predominantly to its inhibition on burn-induced oxidative stress injury.

[Clinical study of value of transcranial Doppler ultrasonography in diagnosing brain death in severe craniocerebral injury].
To assess the clinical value of transcranial Doppler(TCD) ultrasonography in diagnosing brain death in patients with severe craniocerebral injury. ⋯ TCD with the advantages of easy and bedside operation, noninvasiveness, no disturbance from sedatives and repeatability in cerebral hemodynamic examination is of great clinic practical value in early diagnosing brain death in patients with severe cranial injury.

[Clinical study of kidney injury molecule-1 in the treatment of sepsis patients].
To investigate the relationship between kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) in urine and acute physiology and chronic health evaluation II (APACHEII) score, and the prognosis in the patients suffered from sepsis. ⋯ KIM-1 in urine could be a good index for evaluation of sepsis, and it is helpful to understand the disease development by continuous surveillance. It is very important for the appraisal of prognosis, development and prognosis in sepsis, combined with APACHEII score.
