Objective To investigate the respiratory mechanics and treatment outcomes of different types of mechanical ventilation for patients with neonatal acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS):the high frequency oscillation ventilation + pulmonary surfactant (HFOV+PS),conventional mechanical ventilation + pulmonary surfactant(CMV+PS),conventional mechanical ventilation(CMV). Methods Seventy-five cases with neonatal ARDS,25 cases in the HFOV+PS group,30 cases in the CMV+PS group,20 cases in the CMV group. Patients in the former two groups received 70 mg/kg PS at a time. PaO2,PaCO2,PaO2/FiO2,oxygenation index(OI)and respiratory index(RI)were detected at 0 h,12 h,24 h,48 h,72 h post-mechanical ventilation. Results At 12, 24,and 48 hours post-mechanical ventilation,patients in the HFOV+PS group had a significantly higher level of PaO2 and a significantly lower level of PaCO2 than those of patients in the CMV+PS group and the CMV group(P<0.05). At 12,24,48,and 72 hours post-mechanical ventilation,patients in the HFOV+PS group had a significantly higher level of PaO2/FiO2 and significantly lower level of OI and RI than those of patients in the CMV+PS group and the CMV group (P < 0.05,respectively). Patients in the HFOV+PS group also had significantly shorter durations of mechanical ventilation and oxygen usage than those of patients in the CMV+PS group and the CMV group (P < 0.05). No significant differences were observed in Gas leak,the incidence of intracerebral haemorrhage and cure rate among the three groups. Conclusions Application of HFOV with PS therapy for patients with neonatal ARDS can timely improve the oxygenation,shorten the time of mechanical ventilation and the usage of oxygen,without increasing complications.

BACKGROUND:With the deepening of the aging of the world population,the prevalence rate of osteoarthritis is increasing.In recent years,more and more attention has been paid to the study of osteoarthritis.Studies have shown that autophagy and apoptosis are strongly associated with the occurrence and development of osteoarthritis,and play an important role in it. OBJECTIVE:To review the molecular mechanisms of the interaction between autophagy and apoptosis in osteoarthritis,aiming to explore the relationship between autophagy and apoptosis in osteoarthritis and the coupling mechanism of the two to mediate the occurrence and development of osteoarthritis,so as to provide new ideas for the treatment of osteoarthritis. METHODS:The Chinese and English key words"osteoarthritis,autophagy,apoptosis"were searched in the CNKI and PubMed.After screening by reading the title,abstract and key words,the relevant literature was carefully read.After excluding studies unrelated to the content of the paper and repetitive studies,68 articles were finally included for the summary. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The occurrence and development of osteoarthritis are related to autophagy and apoptosis of chondrocytes.Autophagy protects chondrocytes from stress damage,but excessive autophagy also induces or promotes chondrocyte apoptosis and reduces the survival rate of chondrocytes.The two perturb each other to regulate the degeneration of articular cartilage.(2)miRNA,Beclin-1 and oxidative stress are all involved in the regulation of autophagy and apoptosis on osteoarthritis,and affect the development of osteoarthritis.
