Objective To discuss the position nursing for neonates with type three congenital esophageal atresia after operation. Methods We selected 10 patients with type three congenital esophageal atresia from September 2004 to May 2007.The respirator, trachea catheter was removed after operation and the SpO2 was lower than 95% through head mask.Then the SpO2 was compared in different positions of patients,that is face forward,face lateral, face forward with hypsokinesis,face lateral with hypsokinesis. Results All the ten patients survived the operation.The Sp02 in the four positions under oxygen inhalation were (90.30±0.95)%, (89.90±0.74)%, (96.80±1.48)%, (95.90±0.88)%.The former two results were statistically different from the latter two results (P ＜ 0.01). Conclusions The position of face forward with hypsokinesis and face lateral with hypsokinesis facilitated the transition to natural respiration for patients with type three congenital esophageal atresia after remove of respirator and trachea catheter.This could prevent the incidence of complications and the probability of reuse of respirator.

Objective To learn the current obstetric beds allocation,obstetric service delivery and access in midwifery institutions at various levels in the localities and nationwide as well as the trends,and assess the equity of obstetric beds allocation,for the purpose of recommending on a reasonable adjustment of obstetric beds allocation in these institutions.Methods Random sampling made in 44 cities in China for questionnaire survey on obstetric beds allocation,service delivery and utilization in 2008～2010 at all midwifery institutions in these cities.Interview of health administrators and medical workers at obstetric of midwifery institutions in 6 counties.Results Every thousand square kilometers in China average 5.9 midwifery institutions,and every thousand people average 0.24 obstetric beds.During 2008 ～ 2010,the number of beds and midwifery service delivery kept a growing trend while in townships obstetric service deliveries maintain a falling trend.The fairness index of maternity beds layout nationwide is 0.021283.Obstetric beds supply and demand ratio in different regions ranges among 0.97～ 1.41.The number of deliveries made in county level hospitals is 54.1％,but the beds in such hospitals account for but 48.1％.Conclusion The equity of obstetric beds allocation is good in terms of population layout.The quantity of obstetric beds meets the current needs nationwide,while the allocation of obstetric beds is less than reasonable among obstetric institutions of various levels in the country.The authors recommend a better control and adjustment of midwifery institutions layout,especially more such hospitals at the township level to meet the need of women delivery in hospital in remote areas.

Objective To explore the risk factors of chronic cough in children.Methods A hospital-based case-control study was conducted.A total of 60 children with chronic cough and 120 non-chronic cough children were interviewed with standard questionnaires.Non-conditional multivariable logistic model was performed to analyze the risk factors.Results Among 192 children that were performed questionnaire survey,180 cases were obtained the complete data with a questionnaire response rate of 93.75％.No significant difference in age,gender,and permanent residence was found between chronic cough and control groups,respectively (P ＞0.05).As shown in multivariable logistic model,parents with sensitive history (OR =1.924),mother or father smoking (mother:OR =1.989 ; father:OR =2.156),poor ventilation (OR =27.906),and interior decoration less than 3 months stay (OR =4.652) increased the risk of chronic cough in children.Conclusions Many factors,even the domestic environmental factors,are associated with chronic cough in children.It's time to strengthen the intervention of risk factors for reducing the occurrence of chronic cough in children.

Objective To identify the expression of DLK1 protein in different types of renal cell carcinomas and its correlations with pathological characteristics and metastasis. Methods Immunohistochemistry analysis was performed to evaluate the expression of DLK1 protein in 94 cases of primary clear cell renal cell carcinoma, 76 cases of papillary renal cell carcinoma, 45 cases of chromophobe renal cell carcinoma, 71 cases of distal metastatic and 24 cases of lymph node metastatic clear cell renal cell carcinoma, as well as 18 cases of normal renal tissue. The correlations of DLK1 protein expression with pathological characteristics were analyzed. Results DLK1 protein was expressed in proximal and distal renal tubular epithelial cells in all the normal renal cases. In contrast, DLK1 protein expression was lower in different types of renal cell carcinoma. The low or negative expression of DLK1 protein in clear cell renal cell carcinoma, papillary renal cell carcinoma and chromophobe renal cell carcinoma was 33.0% (31/94), 27.6% (21/76) and 33.3% (15/45), respectively. Compared to normal renal tissue, DLK1 protein expression was significantly down-regulated in renal cell carcinomas (P＞0.05), whereas there was no significant difference on DLK1 protein expressions among the different types (P＞0.05) of renal cell carcinomas. DLK1 protein expression was not correlated with sex (60 male and 34 female cases), age (≥55, 50 cases and 55, 44 cases), grade (41 cases in grade I, 9 cases in grade II, 21 cases in grade III and 23 cases in grade Ⅳ respectively) and lymph node metastasis (76 cases with and 18 cases without lymph node metastasis) in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (P＞0.05). There was also no significant difference among primary, lymph node and distal metastatic lesions of clear cell carcinoma (P＞0.05). Conclusions DLK1 protein expression is commonly down-regulated in different types of renal cell carcinomas. Down-regulation of DLK1 protein expression is not associated with pathological characteristics and metastasis in clear cell renal cell carcinoma.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Qingpeng ointment in the treatment of eczema.Methods A multi-center,randomized,double-blind and placebo-controlled clinical trial was conducted.A total of 246 patients with eczema were randomly assigned with a ratio of 2∶1 to the treatment group and control group to topically apply Qingpeng ointment and placebo respectively twice daily for 3 weeks.Total symptom scores were calculated for the patients at the baseline,on week 1,2 and 3 during the treatment according to the individual scores for pruritus,lesions including erythema,papules,papulovesicles or vesicles,desquamation,crusting,infiltration and lichenification.The occurrence of adverse events was recorded.Results Totally,228 patients completed the trial,including 154 patients in the treatment group and 74 patients in the control group.After 3 weeks of treatment,a statistical difference was observed in the response rate (85.71％ vs.41.89％,Z=47.16,P＜ 0.01) and cure rate (31.82％ vs.12.16％,Z=12.30,P＜ 0.01) between the treatment and control group.There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse events between the two groups (2.48％ vs.2.56％,x2 =0,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Qingpeng ointment displays a promising efficacy for the treatment of mild to moderate eczema with a rapid onset and high safety.

Objectives To evaluate the predictive value of the revised model for end-stage liver disease in the clinical early stage after liver transplantation.Methods The clinical data of 218 patients were retrospectively analyzed.After calculating the MELD score,ReFit MELD score and ReFit MELDNa score before transplantation,we compared the predictive accuracies of these scoring systems using the area under curve (AUC) of the receiver operating characteristic.The groups were categorized with the cut-offs of the MELD,ReFit MELD and ReFit MELDNa,and the early-stage complications and mortality in the different groups were analyzed.Results The AUC for the MELD,ReFit MELD and ReFit MELDNa were 0.737 (95％CI 0.621～0.854),0.727 (95％CI 0.663～0.785) and 0.735 (95％CI 0.671～0.792),respectively.There was no statistical difference is the AUC among the MELD,ReFit MELD and ReFit MELDNa.Elevated scores in the 3 models predicted higher rates of pulmonary infection,abdominal infection and acute renal dysfunction,as well as a higher mortality.Conclusions The ReFit MELD score and ReFit MELDNa score were relatively useful predictors of short-term survival rates after liver transplantation.The predictive accuracy was similar to the MELD score.Values of the score above the cutoff values indicated higher rates of complication and poorer prognosis.

Objective To judge the prognosis of adult recipients after first liver transplantation by stepwise discriminant analysis,and screen out the main influencing factors.Methods The clinical data of 221 patients who received liver transplantation at the Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University were retrospectively analyzed.A total of 218 patients who met the criteria were divided into the training samples (188 patients admitted from August 2004 to June 2010) and checking samples (30 patients admitted from July 2010 to February 2011),and then all patients were re-divided into dead group (survival time ≤ 90 days,34 patients) and surviving group (survival time ＞ 90 days,184 patients).Factors which had significant difference after the univariate analysis was further analyzed by the stepwise discriminant analysis method.All data were analyzed by the t test,rank sum test,chi-square test or Fisher exact probability test.Results The ages of the recipients in the dead group and the living group were (54 ± 11)years and (51 ± 11)years,respectively,with no significant difference between the 2 groups (t =-1.681,P ＞ 0.05).The preoperative levels of hemoglobin in the dead group and the living group were 106.7 g/L and 119.2 g/L,respectively,with a significant difference between the 2 groups (t =2.809,P ＜ 0.05).There were significant differences in the levels of serum creatinine,urea nitrogen,albumin,total bilirubin,indirect bilirubin,Na+,prothrombin time,activated partial thromboplastin time,international normalized ratio,fibrinogen,prothrombin activity,platelet,nutrition risk index,model for end-stage liver disease score,number of patients with preoperative hepatic encephalopathy (HE),preoperative hepatorenal syndrome (HRS),preoperative digestive tract bleeding,preoperative infection,preoperative diabetes,Child-Turcotte-Pugh score,cardiac function classification and anesthesia risk rating operation time,anhepatic time,volume of intraoperative blood transfusion,volume of peritoneal effusion ; intraoperative urine output,between the 2 groups (Z =-2.277,-2.595,-3.290,-3.486,-2.562,-2.577,-3.670,-3.882,-3.625,-3.557,-3.837,-1.974,-3.693,-3.815,x2 =19.632,9.756,28.143,Z =-4.175,-3.905,-4.865,-3.564,-5.822,P ＜ 0.05).Preoperative HE,preoperative HRS,duration of operation,intraoperative blood transfusion and intraoperative volume of urine were the independent influencing factors of early prognosis after liver transplantation.The standardized partial regression coefficients were 0.146,0.188,0.257,0.181,-0.340,89.9％ (169/188) of the training samples and 90.0％ (27/30) of the checking samples were correctly classified.Conclusion Based on factors including HRS,HE,intraoperative blood transfusion,intraoperative volume of urine and duration of operation,the early prognosis can be judged in adult recipients after first liver transplantation.

Objective To investigate the effects of compound bifonazole solution for the treatment of superficial mycosis.Methods The study groups were treated with compound bifonazole solution and the control group with clotrimazole solution in a double-blind controlled clinical trial.The solutions were applied to skin lesions once a day.The course of treatment was two weeks for tinea corporis and tinea cruris and four weeks for tinea manus and tinea pedis.The patients were followed up weekly for two weeks after cessation of treatment and evaluated with regard to erythema,papule,blister,scale,keratinization and pruritus.Mycologic examinations were performed before,during and right after treatment and two weeks after treatment.Results A total of434patients participated into the study.The clinical cure rates of study group were82.25%in tinea corporis and tinea cruris,and68.75%tinea manus and tinea pedis,with a total response rates of95.85%and92.5%in tinea corporis and tinea cruris,and92.5%in tinea manus and tinea pedis,respectively.The clinical cure rates of control group were58.6%in tinea corporis and tinea cruris,and44.7%in tinea manus and tinea pedis,with a total response rates of83.0%and87.2%in tinea corporis and tinea cruris,and in tinea manus and tinea pedis,respectively.The MICs to350clinical isolates of pathogenic fungi were1.6~2.5mg/L for compound bifonazole solution,and3.125~25mg/L for clotrimazole solution.Conclusions Compound bifonazole solution is a high-effective,broad-spectrum anti-fungal agent.It is keratolytic,well permeable and safe for relatively long term application.
