ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the clinical characteristics, pathogen distribution and risk factors of late-onset sepsis (LOS) in very low birth weight infants (VLBWI).Methods:In this retrospective case-control study, 107 VLBWIs diagnosed with LOS and hospitalized in Fujian Provincial Maternity and Children's Hospital from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2015 were enrolled as LOS group. Another 107 VLBWIs without infection were assigned as control group with an allocation ratio of 1 to 1. The clinical data between groups were compared using two-independent sample t-test, Chi-square test, sum-rank test and univariate analysis of variance, and multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of LOS. Results:The incidence of LOS in VLBWI was 8.6% (107/1 239). Among the 107 cases with LOS, 87 recovered with a cure rate of 81.3%. Various clinical presentations were observed, and the most common included lethargy (83/107, 77.6%), abdominal distention (77/107, 72.0%) and dyspnea (76/107, 71.0%). Increased C-reactive protein (CRP) level was the most common laboratory markers (82/107, 76.6%). The blood cultures were positive in 45 (42.1%) cases and the dominant pathogen was Gram-negative bacteria (32/45, 71.1%), especially Klebsiella. The logistic regression analysis showed that mechanical ventilation ( OR=21.181, 95% CI: 1.542-290.948, P=0.022), feeding intolerance ( OR=12.480, 95% CI: 2.602-59.856, P=0.002), combined application of antibiotics before LOS occurs ( OR=22.457, 95% CI: 3.933-128.237, P<0.001), duration of antibiotic treatment before LOS occurs ( OR=1.388, 95% CI: 1.158-1.663, P<0.001) were the independent risk factors of LOS for VLBWI. Conclusions:The clinical presentation of LOS in VLBWI are diverse and non-specific. Increased CRP level is a sensitive laboratory marker. The main pathogen is Gram-negative bacteria. LOS are more prone to occur in VLBWI with mechanical ventilation, feeding intolerance, combined application of antibiotics or long duration of antibiotic treatment.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:Previously deep burn wound or skin defects are generaly repaired with skin grafting or flap of skin grafting. Obvious scar hyperplasia usualy appears after operation, which requires multiple surgeries. Meanwhile, patients have to suffer from great pain and bear high cost. OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical effects on deep wounds by continuous traction of self-designed skin-stretching device (patent No. ZL 2012 2 0022443.7). METHODS: Thirty patients with deep burn wound, skin defect or funicular scar were enroled, including 22 males and 8 females, aged 18-49 years, and randomly divided into two groups. Skin-stretching device was adopted for skin traction treatment. Twenty cases underwent skin traction from 1 kg puling force to 5 kg, with an increase of 1 kg per 2 days, 6 hours a day for 10 days. Blood flow at the beginning, 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 30, 60 minutes of the skin traction, and the changes of wound edge skin as wel as histological changes of the skin were observed. Of the remaining 10 cases, 2, 6, and 2 cases underwent skin traction of 2, 4, 7 kg, respectively. Blood flow and skin changes were also observed to find out the most suitable and safe force. RESULTS AND CONLUSION:Al the 30 cases achieved primary healing without necrosis of skin, infection or peripheral circulatory disorders, and the appearance and function recovered wel. The healing time was 8-24 days. The skin-stretching device was most safe under 4 kg puling force, by which, there was neither blood circulation obstacle nor tear of skin. After traction, the skin blood flow and the number of cels increased, especialy the epithelial basal cels. The colagen fibers became thicker and denser, and the elastic fibers regenerated significantly; the fibroblasts and capillary density increased. It has been proved that we can better close the wound and reduce scar formation effectively with the self-designed skin-stretching device for skin traction.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To evaluate the clinical significance of microvessel density (MVD) and investigate the relationship of Endoglin (CD105), VEGF and p53 protein and their significance of clinical pathology.@*METHOD@#Pathologic paraffin-embedded tissues and clinic data of 40 patients with primary squamous cell carcinoma of larynx were studied. Serial sections were respectively stained with Endoglin (CD105), VEGF and p53 by immunohistochemistry and its expressions were investigated. Microvessel density (MVD) highlighted by Endoglin (CD105) were counted according to a standard protocol.@*RESULT@#Endoglin (CD105) expression in tumour tissue was significantly higher than in normal mucosa (P < 0.05). The mean MVD value for Endoglin (CD105) was 14. 90 +/- 7.40. The mean CD105-MVD value of T3 and T4 tumours showed a significantly higher staining than that of T1 and T2 tumours; The mean CD105-MVD value of tumours with metastasis was also higher than that of tumours with no metastasis (P < 0.05); The expression of VEGF was observed in cytoplasm of tumour cell and its positive rate was 77.5% in laryngeal carcinoma, which was significantly correlated with TNM stage and pathological differentiation of laryngeal carcinoma (P < 0.05). The expression of p53 protein was mainly observed in nucleolus of tumour cell and its positive rate was 67.5%, which was significantly correlated with metastasis of lymph node. Positive relevance was found between CD105-MVD and VEGF (r = 0.641, P < 0.01); Positive relevance was also found between CD105-MVD and p53 (r = 0.534, P < 0.01).@*CONCLUSION@#Endoglin (CD105) is a marker of tumour angiogenesis for its significant associated with active angiogenesis in laryngeal carcinoma. The study shows that CD105-MVD in laryngeal carcinoma is an independent indicator of predicting invasion, metastasis and recurrence, and evaluating prognosis of malignant tumours. CD105-MVD, VEGF and p53 could be important indicators to evaluate invasion, metastasis and recurrence of laryngeal carcinoma.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To study the expression of Survivin in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC) and laryngeal papilloma in adults and its significance in carcinogenesis and development of the LSCC.@*METHOD@#The expressions of Survivin protein were detected by immunohistochemistry technique in 46 cases of LSCC, 24 cases of adjacent nontumorous laryngeal epithelium, 20 cases of laryngeal papilloma and 16 cases of normal laryngeal epithelium.@*RESULT@#The positive rates of Survivin protein expression in laryngeal carcinoma, adjacent nontumorous laryngeal epithelium and laryngeal papilloma were 71.74% (33/46), 33.33% (8/24)and 40.00% (8/20) respectively. There was no expression in normal laryngeal epithelium. The positive rate of Survivin protein expression in laryngeal carcinoma was significantly higher than that in the adjacent nontumorous laryngeal epithelium, laryngeal papilloma and normal laryngeal epithelium. But there was no statistically significant correlations between Survivin protein expression and the clinicopathological characteristics of tumor site, T-stage, pathological grading, UICC-stage and lymph node metastasis (P > 0.05). Expression of Survivin protein in 3 cases in laryngeal papilloma group which turned into laryngeal carcinoma later were all positive.@*CONCLUSION@#There was overexpression of Survivin in the laryngeal carcinoma. The expression of Survivin might play an important role in the carcinogenesis of LSCC and might be an early event during laryngeal carcinogenesis. It could be a diagnostic marker for evaluating the malignant potential of laryngeal papilloma in adults.

ABSTRACT

Apoptosis of neutrophils controls the duration and the intensity of an inflammatory response and therefore the extent of neutrophil- mediated tissue damage, disturbance of neutrophil apoptosis has been associated with many diseases, underlying mechanism is not elucidated. C5a is a complement fragment that has multifunctional properties, which induces neutrophil chemoattraction, an oxidative burst, enhancement of phagocytosis, release of granule enzymes, and suppress neutrophil apoptosis. Several studies have reported calpain is involved in both neutrophil functions and apoptosis and it might play a more specific role in the regulation of neutrophil apoptosis. Diffenrent isoform of calpains is activted by diffenrent stimuli through different transduction pathway. It was reported previously that calpain is required for neutrophil migration and chemotaxis induced by C5a. In addition, autophagy is a ubiquitous physiological process that occurs in all eukaryotic cells and is considered to be a survival mechanism. Atg5 promotes autophagy and is indispensable to autophagosome formation. Upon calpain activation, Atg5 is cleaved and the resulting 24 ku Atg5 mediates apoptosis while losting the property of autophagy. Therefore, Atg5 represents a molecular switch between autophagy and apoptosis. The interaction among the C5a, calpain and Atg5 was introduced and new direction for further research was provided.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical features of tumors primarily in the pterygopalatine fossa, and the efficiency of surgical management for these lesions. METHODS The clinical data of 7 cases with tumors primarily in the pterygopalatine fossa were retrospectively studied. Three of them were primary diseases, i.e. fibrous histiocytoma, neurofibroma and cholesteatoma. The other 4 cases were secondary tumors mainly located in pterygopalatine fossa. There were 1 case with epithelial-myoepithelial carcinoma, 1 case with adenoid cystic carcinoma , 1 case with recurrent inverted nasal papilloma, 1 case with recurrent malignant fibrous histiocytoma. Approaches to tumors in pterygopalatine fossa lesions included lateral rhinotomy, and transnasal or transantrum approaches under the nasal endoscope. RESULTS The patient suffered from adenoid cystic carcinoma developed local recurrence 4 months after operation, and extended resection of the recurrent tumor with laser was performed again. No further recurrence was found after following-up for 3 years. Neither local recurrence nor regional metastasis was found in the remaining 6 cases with a follow-up period of 2 to 4 years. The main complication was oronasal fistula. CONCLUSION CT scan or MRI is the main method to the early diagnosis of pterygopalatine fossa tumors. Lateral rhinotomy, endoscopic trasnnasal or transantrum approaches are feasible procedures to resect the tumors.
