1.Incidence of Macrosomia in Ezhou City and the Influencing Factors
Acta Medicinae Universitatis Scientiae et Technologiae Huazhong 2016;45(3):345-348
Objective To investigate the incidence of macrosomia in Ezhou of Hubei province of China,and analyze the in-fluencing factors in an attempt to provide scientific evidence for the prevention and intervention of macrosomia.Methods The incidence and change pattern of macrosomia were analyzed by reviewing the medical records of delivery between 2010 to 2014 in Maternal and Child Health Hospital of Ezhou City.Chi-square and logistic regression were used to analyze the lnfluencing fac-tors of macrosomia.Results The incidence of macrosomia in Ezhou city was 5.5% in 2010-2014,and it tended to decline by year.Univariate and multivariate analyses revealed that maternal age at delivery,gestational week,history of miscarriage and the infant gender were influencing factors of macrosomia.Conclusion The development of macrosomia is associated with many fac-tors.More attention should be paid to the pregnancy care to reduce the occurrence of macrosomia.

Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2017;32(4):256-259
Tuberculosis is still a serious public health problem,World Health Organization (WHO) call for the end tuberculosis strategy based on the stop tuberculosis strategy,screening for the latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) and giving treatment is one important step to prevent the progression of LTBI to active tuberculosis.LTBI defined as a state of persistent immune response to mycobacterium tuberculosis antigens without evidence of clinically manifested active tuberculosis.This article will introduce the pathogenesis,epidemiology,diagnosis and preventive treatment of LTBI in children.
3.Kv7 channels in modulation of central monoaminergic neurotransmission
Chinese Pharmacological Bulletin 2014;(10):1350-1352,1353
The KCNQ gene family encodes five Kv7 channel sub-units(Kv7. 1-5) and four of these (Kv7. 2-5) channels are ex-pressed in the central nervous system ( CNS ) . Neuronal Kv7 channels participate in both pre-and post-synaptic modulation of neurotransmissions. Activation of neuronal Kv7 channels inhibits neuronal excitability and limits the release of monoaminergic neu-rotransmitter. Kv7 channel openers provide novel therapeutic op-tions in the treatment of disease states characterized by overactiv-ity of monoaminergic neurons ( e. g. schizophrenia, anxiety and drug abuse) . This review summarizes the studies on expression and functional role of Kv7 channels in monoaminergic neurotrans-mission in the CNS and the potential therapeutic effect of Kv7 channel openers on the disease characterized by overactivity of monoaminergic neurons.
4.Common etiology and pathogenesis of plastic bronchitis in children
Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2021;36(4):244-247
Plastic bronchitis(PB) is an uncommon respiratory disease characterized by formation of casts in tracheobronchial tree.It can lead to airway obstruction, difficulty of breathing and even respiratory failure.PB in children is commonly associated with lower airway infection, cyanotic congenital heart disease and asthma or atopic diseases.It can also be found in children with sickle cell anemia, thalassemia and cystic fibrosis and so no.There are three main mechanisms for the formation of casts: airway inflammation results in mucus hypersecretion; inflammatory insults lead to necrosis and abscission of the airway epithelium, mucosal edema, and finally cause airway clearance impairment; leakage of chyle from lung lymphatic circulation into airway.But the etiology of this disease is various, pathogenesis is complex.Further research is required to elucidate the pathogenesis.
5.Microbiology progress of protracted bacterial bronchitis in children
Chinese Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 2021;36(8):634-636
Protracted bacterial bronchitis (PBB) is one of the common causes of chronic cough in children.The common pathogenic bacteria of PBB include haemophilus influenzae, streptococcus pneumoniae and moraxella catabilis.Viruses are also involved in the development of PBB.In addition, the microbiome of PBB is different from that of normal children, with lower respiratory tract flora disorder.This paper summarized the recent progress in the microbiology of PBB.
6.Mechanism of M-current modulation by neural transmitters
Academic Journal of Second Military Medical University 1985;0(05):-
M channel, a voltage-dependent potassium channel, has been found in a variety of neurons. It is activated near the threshold of neuron action potential,producing a primary K~+ current, namely the M-current. The M-current can be modulated by many neurotransmitters and hormones, which can influence neuron excitability, conduction and neurotransmitter release. This review discusses the signal transduction pathway from G_~ q/11 activation to intracellular calcium, membrane phospholipid and phosphokinase, and explains the mechanism of M-current modulation by neurotransmitters.

In the modernization course of Chinese materia medica(CMM),two misunderstanding mistakes which are out of line with traditional Chinese medicine(TCM)theory and excessively emphasize the research of CMM compound prescription and two difficult points which are the establishment of CMM quality control system and the establishment of CMM evaluation system were pointed out.Because the main means of TCM syndrome differentiation treatment and TCM combination therapy is CMM processing pieces and the starting point of the research of CMM efficacy substantial basis should be CMM processing pieces,the priority of the modernization of CMM should be the research on modern CMM processing pieces and the conditions have been mature now.The research on modern CMM pieces were supposed to take three steps:the research on "standardized extract",the research on "effective fraction" and the research on the CMM nature of "effective fraction".

Objective To investigate the efficacy of the clinical pathway introduced in children with bronchiolitis.Methods Based on a retrospective study,the duration of hospital stay,hospital expenses,antibiotics usage rates,curative rate and nosocomial infection rate were compared between 181 bronchiolitis patients (the clinical pathway group) managed according to clinical pathway and other 122 bronchiolitis patients (the control group).The variation of clinical pathway was analyzed in the clinical pathway group as well.Results The duration of hospital stay in clinical pathway group [4.96 (4.00,6.00) days] was significantly shorter than that in the control group [5.81 (4.82,7.00) days],and the difference was significant (Z =3.137,P < 0.05).The hospital expenses [3 701.23 (3 124.50,4 396.19) yuan] in clinical pathway group were significantly lower than that in the control group [3 954.22 (3 325.07,4 679.66) yuan],and the difference was significant (Z =2.042,P < 0.05).The antibiotics usage rate (20.44%)(37/181 cases) in clinical pathway group was significantly lower than that in the control group (40.16%) (49/122 cases),and the difference was significant (,x2 =13.945,P < 0.05),and the curative rate (93.92%) (170/181 cases)in clinical pathway group was significantly higher than that in the control group (86.89 %) (106/122 cases),and the difference was significant (x2 =4.447,P < 0.05).The nosocomial infection rate (4.42%) (8/181 cases)was also lower than that in the control group (10.66%,13/122 cases),and the difference was significant (x2 =4.393,P <0.05).The variation rate of clinical pathway was 48.62% (88/181 cases) in clinical pathway group.Conclusions The curative rate is improved and the duration of hospital can be shortened if the clinical pathway is introduced in bronchiolitis children,with less the hospital expense.Moreover,the antibiotics usage rates and the nosocomial infection rate are reduced in the implementation process of clinical pathway which is worthy to be put in use.However,there is a high variation rate in the clinical pathway.It should be interposed and administrated appropriately in dinical treatment for clinic.

As an outward,voltage-dependent potassium channel,M type channel is crucial in the regulation of neuronal excitability;it is modulated by a variety of factors in vivo and its dysfunction often results in neuronal system diseases.Great efforts have been made to elucidate the mechanism underlying M channel modulation since its discovery decades ago.It is generally accepted that the Phospholipase C(PLC) signaling pathway plays a significant role in the M channel modulation.This review highlights the relationship between PLC signaling pathway and M channel modulation,as well as some recent progresses in the research of this field.
