RESUMO
Objective To study the influence of clinical nutritional support on the effects of mechanical ventilation (MV), and to find the factors affecting the outcome of patients undergoing MV. Methods A case-control study was conducted. The clinical data of 235 patients undergoing MV admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) of Tongde Hospital of Zhejiang Province from January 2015 to June 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into two groups according to whether weaning successfully within 7 days. The clinical data of patients in the two groups were collected including gender, age, acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHEⅡ) score, underlying disease, nutritional indicators, nutritional support, and complications. The outcome of withdrawal within 7 days was served as a dependent variable, all observed indicators were served as independent variables, and Logistic regression analysis was carried out to screen the influencing factors of the weaning results within 7 days. Results 235 patients undergoing MV were enrolled, 128 patients were successfully withdrawn within 7 days, and 107 were unsuccessfully withdrawn. Compared with the successful weaning group, the patients of weaning failure group were older, and had higher APACHEⅡ score and lower albumin (Alb) and hemoglobin (Hb), more patients with internal medical underlying diseases and receiving parenteral nutrition (PN) and mixed nutrition, and the incidences of secondary infection, vomiting, abdominal distension, abnormal bowel sound, gastric retention, and diarrhea were higher. However, there was no statistical significance in gender between the two groups. The variables of statistical significance in univariate analysis were enrolled in the multifactor analysis model showing that age [odds ratio (OR) = 1.269, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 1.119-1.439, P < 0.001], APACHEⅡ score (OR = 1.643, 95%CI = 1.423-1.897, P < 0.001), internal medical underlying diseases (OR = 6.298, 95%CI = 4.012-9.887, P < 0.001), secondary infection (OR = 8.323, 95%CI = 2.568-26.975, P < 0.001), abdominal distension (OR = 3.368, 95%CI = 1.586-7.152, P = 0.002), abnormal bowel sounds (OR = 2.856, 95%CI = 1.215-6.713, P = 0.017), gastric retention (OR = 1.996, 95%CI = 1.183-3.368, P = 0.010), diarrhea (OR = 3.035, 95%CI = 1.337-6.890, P = 0.008) were risk factors for unsuccessful weaning,and compared with PN, enteral nutrition (EN; OR = 0.191, 95%CI = 0.098-0.372, P < 0.001) and mixed nutrition (OR = 0.375, 95%CI = 0.150-0.938, P = 0.037) were protective factors of successful weaning. The gender, Alb and Hb before and after MV, vomiting, gastrointestinal hemorrhage were not associated with weaning outcome within 7 days. Conclusions Elder, high APACHEⅡ score, internal medical underlying diseases, or secondary infection, abdominal distension, abnormal bowel sounds, gastric retention, diarrhea were risk factors of weaning failure within 7 days in patients undergoing MV. Compared with PN, EN and mixed nutrition were protective factors for successful weaning. For patients undergoing MV, EN should be performed early in the case of full recovery, hemodynamic stability, and serious metabolic disorders.
RESUMO
Bronchiolitis is the most common lower respiratory tract disease in infants younger than 2 years of age.Many viruses can cause bronchiolitis,however,respiratory syncytial virus is most common etiology.The pathological characters are acute inflammation,edema,necrosis of epithelial cells and mucus productions increased.Diaguosis of bronchiolitis is based on clinical signs and symptoms and a thorough history and physical exam.The disease severity and risk factors for severe disease need to be assessed.The treatment of bronchiolitis has been largely supportive.Continuous positive airway pressure treatment has been accepted for severe cases.Palivizumab prophylaxis is probable in high risk infants.Hand hygiene,decreasing tobacco smoke and breastfeeding are considered as efficient preventive methods.

RESUMO
ObjectiveTo explore the expression of monokine induced by interferon- γ(Mig) in serum and chemokine receptor 3(CXCR3)on lymphocytes of peripheral blood in children with bronchiolitis.MethodsIn this study, 55 patients with bronchiolitis in our hospital were randomly recuited, and were divided into two groups: atopic group and non-atopic group. Of the same age 26 healthy children had been enrolled randomly as control group. The level of CXCR3 expression (CD183) on lymphocytes of peripheral blood was detected by lfow cytometry in all children. The level of Mig in serum was assayed by ELISA.ResultsThe level of CD183 expression on the CD3+CD4+T lymphocytes in atopic group and non-atopic group(16.39±4.13%,14.39±3.74 %)were higher than that of control group(11.17±3.13%,P<0.05),CD183+CD4+/CD4+% in atopic group were higher than that in non-atopic group(P<0.05). The level of CD183 expression on CD3+CD8+T lymphocytes in atopic group and non-atopic group(67.18±10.57 %, 61.44±11.46 %)were higher than that of control group(51.19±5.42 %, P<0.05),CD183+CD8+/CD8+% in atopic group were signiifcantly higher than that in non-atopic group(P<0.05). The level of Mig in serum of children with bronchiolitis in atopic group and non-atopic group(99.67±35.77ng/L, 120.28±32.28ng/L)were signiifcantly higher than that in control group(63.90±15.82 ng/L,P<0.05).

RESUMO
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the association of ATP-binding cassette transporter A3 (ABCA3) gene mutations with severe neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS) and lung disease in children.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>Thirty-eight children hospitalized with respiratory disorders in Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from January 2010 to December 2011 were screened. Two mutations (E292V, G1221S) in the ABCA3 gene were identified. Interstitial lung disease (ILD) was present in 10 cases, NRDS was found in 23 and congenital pulmonary dysplasia in 5 cases. There were 24 males and 14 females, with an age range of 1 hour to 15 years. Genomic DNA was prepared from blood samples and sequences were analyzed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Clinical feature, imaging characteristics and the results of gene detection were retrospectively analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>Four cases with ABCA3 gene mutations were found; 2 patients (case 2 and case 4) had the heterozygous mutation of ABCA3 E292V. One was a 3-hour-old girl and another was a 52-day-old boy, 2 patients (case 1 and case 4) had the heterozygous mutation of ABCA3 G1221S. One was a 78-day-old boy and another was a girl, 15 years and one month old. The family history was negative for respiratory disease. Three patients (case 1, 2, 4 ) had NRDS and 2 (case 1, 2) of them were premature. One patient (case 3) had normal growth and development. She was diagnosed clinically as interstitial lung disease (ILD) after admission. The clinical outcomes of 4 cases were various. Case 1 had recurrent wheezing and inhaled corticosteroid was needed. Case 2 died because she failed to wean from mechanical ventilator. Case 3 was discharged with improvement but lost to follow-up. Case 4 grows normally.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Genetic variants within ABCA3 may be the genetic causes or background of a contributor to some unexplained refractory NRDS, and chronic lung disease developed in latter childhood. Identification of ABCA3 genetic variants in NRDS infants is important to offer genetic counseling, as well as early prognosis estimation and intervention in pediatric chronic lung disease.</p>

Aim To investigate the role of cAMP re-sponse element binding protein (CREB)in the injury of rat pulmonary microvascular endothelial cell (RPM-VEC)induced by LPS.Methods RPMVECs were i-solated and cultured in vitro,Western-blot was used to assay phosphorylation levels of CREB.Endothelial per-meability was determined by measuring the influx of Evans blue-labeled albumin across endothelial mono-layer.Results LPS increased CREB phosphorylation at Ser 1 3 3 in RPMVEC in a time-dependent manner , peaked at 30 min,but still higher at 120 min compared with basal control group.Pretreatment of cells with PKA inhibitor V5681 nearly suppressed the CREB phosphorylation stimulated in the presence of LPS,and the monolayer permeability of PMVEC was significantly increased. Conclusions LPS rapidly induces the phosphorylation of CREB in RPMVEC,and PKA me-diates the process.During the process of LPS-stimula-ted injury of RPMVEC,phosphorylation of CREB may play a protective role.
RESUMO
OBJECTIVE@#We explore the deformity degrees of external ear, mastoid process, tympanic cavity and auditory ossicle by the HRCT features of bilateral and unilateral patients of congenital abnormality of external and middle ear for preoperative analysis and selection for surgical approaches.@*METHOD@#Twenty-nine patients were enrolled in our study, and HRCT were performed on all patients. There were 23 unilateral ears deformity (13 right and 10 left), 6 patients with bilateral ears deformity in the study group. Nineteen patients (19 ears) were treated with operations.@*RESULT@#The deformity degree of auricle was correlated with that of external auditory meatus, and mastoid process develops bad aeration extent with bad tympanic cavity development in 35 ears in our research. We got data of shortest distance from tympanic cape to atresia board in HRCT, (0.59 +/- 0.13)cm in comparison group, (0.45 +/- 0.19)cm in unilateral deformity group, (0.32 +/- 0.12)cm in bilateral deformity group, and there were significant differences compared the two deformity groups with the comparison group. There were 1 ear with normal auditory ossicle (2.86%), 5 ears with fixation of stapes foot board (14.29%), 3 ears with no auditory ossicle (8.57%); 26 ears with malleus and incus abnormality (74.29%). Abnormality of malleus was always concomitant with that of incus. Degeneration of malleus, the joint amalgamation of malleus and incus were discovered mostly in this research.@*CONCLUSION@#The deformity degree of auricle is correlated with that of external auditory meatus, and mastoid process develops bad aeration extent with bad tympanic cavity development in 35 ears in our research. The shortest distance from tympanic cape to atresia board in HRCT in unilateral ears deformity group are shorten 0.15 cm in that of comparison group. And that of bilateral ears deformity group are shorten 0.25 cm in that of comparison group. The main abnormality of auditory ossicle in our research present in both malleus and incus, and degeneration of malleus and the joint amalgamation of malleus and incus are main types.

RESUMO
In this paper is presented an analysis of the mechanical effect of horizontal rotating bioreactor on cell culture. Getting the microgravity of the bioreactor and the shear stress on canine mesenchymal stem cells (cMSCs) with theoretic calculating model and differential equations, we have validated the density,growth rate and modality of cultured cell by scanning electron microscopy. The horizontal rotating bioreactor which we developed could create the mechanic environment of microgravity (K<8.38 X 10(-2))and low shear stress(r<1.62 dyn/cm2) in theory. The results of scanning electron microscopy indicated that the cells' growth-speed, quantity and modality in bioreactor were better than those of cells cultured in static 24-well plate. The mechanical environment of the rotating bioreactor is propitious for keeping better modality and more rapid proliferation of cMSCs. The rotating bioreactor is a novel approach and technique it is superior to static culture.
