Objective The study aimed to explore the growth status of children under 3 years of age in Nankai district of Tianjin city,provide reference evidence for children's health care work of the local area.Methods Convenience sampling was used to collect physical examination records of children under 3 years old from Wangdingdi hospital in Nankai district of Tianjin city.The records of 2 880 children' physical examination data were collected.Results The median scores of weight for height (WHZ) of children of 6,9,12,18 months old were 0.74 (0.01,1.49),0.73 (0.08,1.38),0.58 (0.11,1.27),0.54 (0.14,1.22),while children of 3,24,36 months old were 0.29 (0.45,1.03),0.17 (0.61,0.95),0.22 (0.36,0.80),the difference between them had statistical significance,x2=21.71,P＜0.05.The median scores of height for age (HAZ) of children of 3,6,9,12,16 months old were 1.05 (0.33,1.76),1.09 (0.32,1.85),1.22 (0.41,2.02),1.00 (0.20,1.79),1.09 (0.19,1.99),while children of 18,24 months old were 0.79 (0.06,1.51),0.86 (0.15,1.56),the difference between them had statistical significance,x2=27.83,P＜0.05.The median scores of weight for age (WAZ) of children of 3,12,18,24,36 months old were 0.88 (0.29,1.46),0.96 (0.31,1.61),0.85(0.19,1.51),0.64 (0.04,1.23),0.91 (0.28,1.54),while children of 6,9 months old were 1.10 (0.43,1.76),1.09 (0.43,1.74),the difference between them had statistical significance,x2=36.95,P＜0.05.The prevalence of stunting,wasting and overweight were 0.3％ (10/2 880),0.8％ (22/2 880) and 9.3％ (267/2 880).The physical condition between premature and full term infants and post-mature infants had statistical significance,t=140.23,100.64,P＜0.05.Conclusions The growth and development status of children in Tianjin Nankai district under 3 years old was generally good,and there was no significant difference between boys and girls,however,overweight has been the most serious problem at present.Compared with full-term and post-mature infants,the physical condition of premature newborn was lower.

Objective:To study the clinical value of left ventricle Tei index in evaluating hemodynamics after interventional therapy of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA).Methods:From May 2017 to May 2019, 50 children with PDA who underwent interventional therapy (PDA group) and 27 healthy children (healthy control group) in Anhui Provincial Children’s Hospital were selected. The left ventricle Tei index, plasma brain natriuretic peptides (BNP), left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVDD), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were compared between 2 groups.Results:The left ventricle Tei index was not correlated with heart rate and age in 2 groups ( P>0.05). The left ventricle Tei index before operation in PDA group was significantly lower than that in healthy control group: 0.20(0.16, 0.25) vs. 0.27(0.20, 0.30), and there was statistical difference ( P<0.05). In PDA group, the left ventricle Tei index immediately, 3 d, 1 month and 3 months after operation was significantly higher than before operation: 0.38(0.29, 0.47), 0.32(0.26, 0.40), 0.30(0.27, 0.35) and 0.32(0.26, 0.37) vs. 0.20(0.16, 0.25), and there was statistical difference ( P<0.05); the plasma BNP immediately after operation was significantly lower than before operation: 288 (126, 433) ng/L vs. 582 (303, 1 675) ng/L, and there was statistical difference ( P<0.05); the LVDD 3 months after operation was significantly lower than before operation: (3.03 ± 0.54) cm vs. (3.38 ± 0.51) cm, and there was statistical difference ( P<0.05); the LVEF immediately after operation was significantly lower than before operation: (54.24 ± 6.09)% vs. (59.45 ± 5.93)%, the LVEF 1 and 3 months after operation was significantly higher than that immediately after operation: (63.18 ± 4.71)% and (65.46 ± 4.78)% vs. (54.24 ± 6.09)%, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05). The left ventricle Tei index before operation was negatively correlated with inner diameter of PDA and plasma BNP ( r = -0.362 and -0.388, P = 0.013 and 0.009), and there was no correlation between LVDD and LVEF ( r = -0.192 and -0.283, P = 0.229 and 0.053); the differences of Tei index before operation and immediately after operation (ΔTei) was positively correlated with inner diameter of PDA ( r = 0.325, P = 0.030), and there was no correlation with BNP, LVDD and LVEF ( r = 0.234, 0.283 and -0.039, P = 0.126, 0.076 and 0.798). Conclusions:The left ventricle Tei index can quickly and accurately assess the change of hemodynamics after interventional therapy of PDA.

According to 'National Standard of Undergraduate Teaching Quality for Nursing Science', the mode of community nursing practice was explored and implemented by the School of Nursing in Tianjin Medical University. Focus on competency, the syllabus of community nursing practice was revised. Optimizing the management system of community nursing practice, developing the team of high-quality teachers, building standardized community nursing practice bases, and improving the evaluation system of community nursing practice aimed to enhance comprehensive quality of nursing undergraduates and the quality of community nursing practice. Within the concept of "big health", our school is exploring the new mode of combining community nursing practice with health management-oriented nursing personnel training, which lays an important foundation for training applied nursing talents to meet the needs on development of community health services.

Objective To evaluate the effects of body position and cuffed endotracheal tube (cETT) position on the intracuff pressure during tonsillectomy in the pediatric patients.Methods Sixty pediatric patients,aged 3-12 yr,scheduled for elective tonsillectomy under general anesthesia,were divided into group A and group B using a random number table,with 30 patients in each group.The cETTs were placed on one side of the blade of Davis retractor in group A.The cETTs were placed between the blade of Davis retractor and the body of tongue in group B.The intracuff pressure was recorded when the head was in the neutral position (T1),after changing to the head back position (T2) and when the retractor was placed for operation (T3).Results The intracuff pressure was significantly higher at T2 than at T1 in the two groups (P＜0.01).The intracuff pressure was significantly higher at T3 in group A and lower at T3 in group B than at T2 (P＜0.01).Compared with group A,the intracuff pressure was significantly decreased at T3 (P＜0.01),and no significant change was found in the intracuff pressure at T1,2 in group B (P＞0.05).Conclusion The intracuff pressure is affected by body position and cETT position during tonsillectomy in the pediatric patients,and routine monitoring of the intracuff pressure is recommended.

OBJECTIVETo screen and identify the new long non-coding RNAs from transcriptome of laryngeal squamous cell cancer using strand-specific RNA-Seq technology and bioinformatics tools, and to analyze the difference expression of these LncRNAs.

METHODSRNA was extracted from laryngeal squamous cell cancer tissues of 10 patients and the strand-specific libraries were constructed for high-throughput sequencing. The low-quality data were filtered and the high quality sequencing reads were mapped to the reference genome and assembled. The obtained transcripts were classified and annotated, the optimized LncRNA identification pipeline was used to discover novel LncRNA in these transcriptome, and the characteristics of LncRNA were analyzed.

RESULTSA more optimized pipeline were established and 134 new LncRNA transcripts were found, which was not included in the public database. The new LncRNA transcripts had some characteristics in length distribution, ORF length, and expression.

CONCLUSIONSome new LncRNA from the transcriptome of laryngeal carcinoma were identified, with different expression, and they may play an important role in laryngeal squamous cell cancer.
