Indirect energy metabolism measurement is the gold standard for providing nutritional support for critical illness. The accuracy of the measurement data directly affects the outcome of the disease. In order to study the influence of sampling delay on the accuracy of energy metabolism measurement under mechanical ventilation, the Matlab/Simulink platform and respiratory electrical model were used for simulation and quantitative analysis. The results show that the error of indirect energy metabolism measurement increases with the increase of sampling delay, the error of sampling delay in mechanical ventilation mode is larger than that of spontaneous breathing, and the error of sampling delay in PCV mode of mechanical ventilation is larger than that in VCV mode. Therefore, there should be different sampling delay compensation strategies under severe mechanical ventilation and its different control modes.

A lung diffusion function detection system is designed. Firstly, the controllable collection of air, test gas source and calibration gas source was based on single-breath method measurement principle. Secondly, pulmonary diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide (DlCO) was calculated by gas concentration measured by the non-dispersive infrared sensor to measure, the gas flow measured by the differential pressure sensor, and the temperature, humidity and atmospheric pressure sensors to test and evaluate the quantitative detection and evaluation of lung diffusion function. Moreover, a preliminary verification of the lung diffusion function detection system was implemented, and the results showed that the error of the lung carbon monoxide diffusion and the alveolar volume did not exceed 5%. Therefore, the system has high accuracy and is of great value for early screening and accurate assessment of COPD.

The fusion neutron source based on Gas Dynamic Trap (GDT) device has the advantages of high neutron flux, large testing space and low construction cost, so it is an ideal solution for high-flux fusion volumetric neutron source. As a new type of radioactive facility, how to carry out radiation safety management under the current nuclear safety regulatory laws and regulations in China is an important issue that must be addressed before the construction of this facility. In this paper, the radiation safety characteristics of GDT fusion neutron source was analyzed and the main radiation terms of GDT fusion neutron source were expounded. Combined with the existing nuclear safety regulatory laws and regulations in China, the key points of radiation protection and safety management in the process of construction and application of GDT fusion neutron source were put forward. It is recommended that the GDT neutron source should be managed as a class I radiological device. Prior to operation, radiation safety permit and nuclear material permit should be obtained, and special attention should be paid to the safety protection of radioactive tritium. This study will pay the way for the radiation safety management of the international high flux fusion neutron source ALIANCE project, and also provide the reference for the related nuclear and radiation safety management departments in China.

Lime sulfur is a common bactericide with strong alkalinity, and is highly corrosive to humans and animals. It is rare for lime sulfur poisoning clinically. This article discusses the clinical manifestations of a patient who was poisoned by oral lime sulfur. After the poisoning, the mucosa of the lips and pharynx broke, fever, and pulmonary inflammation quickly appeared. The pulmonary CT showed slight interstitial changes in both lungs. Through high flow oxygen inhalation, fluid infusion, drainage, maintenance of water and electrolyte balance, protection of important organ functions, and other symptomatic support and treatment, as well as control of blood pressure, blood sugar, maintenance of circulatory function and other targeted measures, the patient's condition gradually improved.

The croup is a common disease of upper airway obstruction in children, with high incidence rate.In severe case, it is life-threatening.Because there is no guidelines or consensus on diagnosis and treatment in China, the evidence-based research on Chinese children′s croup is also seriously lacking.Therefore, the article mainly reviews the recent research progress of croup abroad.

Cluster of differentiation 36 (CD36) is a membrane glycoprotein receptor capable of binding and transporting fatty acid. Nogo-B regulates the metabolism of fatty acids in the liver and affects the development of liver cancer. To date, it remains unclear whether the interaction between CD36 and Nogo-B affects the proliferation and migration of breast cancer cells. In the current study, we aimed to determine whether the interference of CD36 and Nogo-B affects the proliferation and migration of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells. The results showed that inhibition of CD36 or Nogo-B alone can inhibit the proliferation and migration of TNBC cells, and the inhibitory effect was more pronounced when CD36 and Nogo-B were inhibited simultaneously. Meanwhile, it was found that inhibition of CD36 and Nogo-B expression can inhibit the expression of Vimentin, B-cell lympoma-2 (BCL2) and proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA). In vivo, knockdown of CD36 or Nogo-B in E0771 cells reduced its tumorigenic ability, which was further enhanced by knockdown of CD36 and Nogo-B simultaneously. Mechanistically, inhibition of CD36 and Nogo-B expression can decrease fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4) and fatty acid transport protein 4 (FATP4) expression. Moreover, overexpression of CD36 and Nogo-B-induced cell proliferation was attenuated by FABP4 siRNA, indicating that inhibition of CD36 and Nogo-B expression could inhibit the absorption and transport of fatty acids, thereby inhibiting the proliferation and migration of TNBC. Furthermore, inhibition of CD36 and Nogo-B expression activated the P53-P21-Rb signaling pathway which contributed to the CD36 and Nogo-B-inhibited proliferation and migration of TNBC. Taken together, the results suggest that inhibition of CD36 and Nogo-B can reduce the proliferation and migration of TNBC, which provides new targets for the development of drugs against TNBC.

AIM: To evaluate the characteristics of choriocapillary blood flow in different patients with diabetic retinopathy(DR)based on the measurement of choriocapillaris(CC)perfusion density(PFD)using ultra-high-speed swept-source optical coherence tomography angiography(SS-OCTA)METHODS: The cross-sectional observational study was conducted on 139 cases(139 eyes)who admitted to the Second People's Hospital of Hefei, including 115 DR cases(115 eyes)and 24 control cases(24 eyes). The color retinal images were graded according to the Early Treatment Diabetic Retinopathy Study(ETDRS)scale, and the DR eyes were classified into non-DR group, nonproliferative diabetic retinopathy(NPDR)group, NPDR combined with diabetic macular edema(DME)group and proliferative diabetic retinopathy(PDR)group. The ultra-high-speed SS-OCTA was used to scan a 3mm×3mm region centered on the macular central fovea, the CC perfusion area was measured by the built-in software, and PFD was calculated. Multivariable linear regressions were used to evaluate the correlation between PFD of CC and DR degree.RESULTS: The degree of DR had a correlation with blood perfusion of CC after adjusting for various confounding factors. When compared to the control group, the PFD of CC in the central fovea of the NPDR group decreased by 9.358 units(95%CI -18.484~-0.232, P=0.045)and 9.284 units in the paracentral fovea(95%CI -18.487~-0.090, P=0.048); In the NPDR combined with DME group, the central fovea CC PFD decreased by 18.173 units(95%CI -28.583~-7.762, P=0.001), while the paracentral fovea decreased by 17.032 units(95%CI -27.521~-6.544, P=0.002); In the PDR group, the central fovea CC PFD decreased by 28.309 units(95%CI -39.978~-16.640, P<0.001), while the paracentral fovea decreased by 25.841 units(95%CI -37.597~-14.085, P<0.001).CONCLUSION: The macular perfusion can be objectively quantified by the measurement of CC PFD with ultra-high-speed SS-OCTA. The CC PFD in the macular region was significantly reduced in more advanced stages of DR. Furthermore, future research should focus on longitudinal studies in the causal relationship between CC perfusion and DR progression.
