Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) is a life threatening clinical syndrome caused by a variety of causes.Early identification and etiological diagnosis of DAH in children are challenging.Despite some advances have been made in the identification and management of DAH,the mortality rate is still high.This article aims to raise the cognition of clinicians on DAH by providing a general review of some recent researches.

With regard to the bounded linear continuous-time system, a universal chaotic anti-controlling method was presented on the basis of tracking control. A tracking controller is designed to such an extent that it can track any chaotic reference input, thus making it possible to chaotify the linear system. The controller is identical in structure for different controlled linear systems. Computer simulations proved the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Objective:To establish the quality standard for Aitongxiao granules. Methods:TLC was used to identify Herba Hedy-otis Diffusa, Herba Scutell Barbatae, Radix Astragali and Radix Paeoniae Rubra in Aitongxiao granules, and the content of scutellarin was determined by HPLC. The stationary phase was a Kromasial C18 column (250 mm × 4. 6 mm,5μm), the mobile phase was metha-nol-3% acetic acid (33∶67), the flow rate was 1. 0 ml·min-1, the detection wavelength was at 335 nm, and the temperature was 25℃. Results:The characteristic TLC spots of the granule samples were the same as those of the standard samples without any inter-ference from the negative control. Scutellarin had a good linear relationship within the range of 2.18-10.90μg·ml-1(r=0.999 9), and the average recovery was 96. 65% with RSD of 1. 45﹪(n=6). Conclusion:The method is simple, accurate, reliable and repro-ducible, which could be used in the quality control of Aitongxiao granules.

Objective:To explore features and relevant influencing factor of ecological executive function in children with childhood absence epilepsy (CAE).Methods:Forty children with CAE (CAE group) and 40 healthy children with physical examination (control group) from April 2017 to July 2020 in Anhui Provincial Children′s Hospital were selected. The behavior rating inventory of executive function (BRIEF) parental questionnaire was used to evaluate the executive function of children. The differences of ecological executive function between 2 groups were compared.Results:The BRIEF total score, behavioral regulation index (BRI) and metacognition index (MI) in CAE group were significantly higher than those in control group: (52.03 ± 10.89) scores vs. (44.05±5.06) scores, (49.45 ± 9.93) scores vs. (43.85 ± 4.70) scores and (53.18 ± 11.24) scores vs. (44.95 ± 5.32) scores, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.01). Multiple stepwise regression analysis result showed that inhibit inhibition, shift, emotional control, initiation, working memory, planning, organization, monitoring, MI and total score were correlated with disease control ( P<0.01), and disease control had a negative predictive effect on them ( R2 = 0.174, 0.158, 0.234, 0.325, 0.383, 0.337, 0.378, 0.199, 0.463 and 0.435); BRI was correlated with onset age and disease control ( P<0.01 or <0.05), and onset age and disease control had a negative predictive effect on BRI ( R2 = 0.336). Conclusions:Children with CAE have ecological executive dysfunction. The control of the disease and the onset age are the main factors affecting the ecological executive function.

Objective To evaluate the clinical significance of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA),cancer antigen 125 (CA125),carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA19-9) and eytokeratin 21-1 fragment (CYFRA21-1) assays of sputum in patients with lung cancer. Method Fifty-two cases with lung cancer and 46 cases with benign lung diseases underwent detection of CEA ,CA125 ,CA19-9 and CYFRA21-1 in sputum by using the method of chemi-luminescent enzyme immunoassay. Results The levels of CEA,CA125,CA19-9 and CYFRA21-1 in sputum of 52 cases with lung cancer were (27.6±31.2) μg/L, (76.4±65.2)kU/L, (56.1±31.6) kU/L and ( 25.2±9.1 )μg/L respectively. But the levels of those of 46 cases with benign lung diseases were (6.1±7.5)μg/L, (23.7±7.9) kU/L, (17.3±10.2) kU/L and (1.2±1.7)μg/Lrespectively. The levels of these tumor markers in sputum in patients with lung cancer were significantly higher than those in patients with benign lung diseases(P< 0.01 ). The diagnostic sensitivity of CEA,CA125,CA 19-9 and CYFRA21-1 in sputum in 52 cases with lung cancer was 42.3%( 22/52 ), 46.2% (24/52), 36.5%( 19/52 ) and 51.9% (27/52) respectively ( P > 0.05 ). Among the cancer patients, the sensitivity of sputum CEA in patients with adenocareinoma was significantly higher than that in patients with squamons cell carcinoma (X2= 4.193, P < 0.05 ) ; while the sensitivity of sputum CYFRA21-1 in patients with squamous cell carcinoma was significantly higher than that in patients with adenocarcinoma ( X2 = 4.806,P < 0.05 ). The sensitivity of CA125 in advanced lung cancer( Ⅲ +Ⅳ stage) was higher than that in early lung cancer( Ⅰ+Ⅱstage) (X2= 5.202,P < 0.05 ). Compared with the single tumor marker assaying, the combination of CEA,CA 125, CA 19-9 and CYFRA21-1 in sputum could significantly improve the sensitivity and accurate value in the diagnosis of lung cancer (P<0.05). Conclusion To assay CEA,CA125,CA1g-9 and CYFRA21-1 in sputum is valuable in diagnosis of lung cancer, and the combination of CEA,CA125,CA19-9 and CYFRA21-1 in sputum can significantly improve sensitivity and accurate value in the diagnosis of lung cancer.

A 19-year-old Chinese woman presented with progressive ulcers and recurrent fever for 1 year.The lesions originally began with purplish red maculopapules,then rapidly developed into ulcer with severe pain and spread to the trunk and extremities accompanied by intermittent fever.Histopathology revealed lymphoid infiltration of middle and large atypical T cells throughout the dermis and subcutaneous fat laver along with focal epidermotropism.The lymphoid infiltrates were positive for CD3,CD8,T-cell intercellular antigen(TLA)and T-cell receptor β(TCR-β).Gene analysis showed the rearrangement of T-cell receptor gene.According to the above findings,the patient was diagnosed as primary cutaneous aggressive epidermotropic CD8-positive cytotoxic T-cell lymphoma. Combined thempy with cyclophosphamide,vincristine,prednisone and bleomycin resulted in partial remission of skin lesions,but she eventually died 22 months after the onset of disease.

[Objective] To explore the effect of early treatment of Chinese herbal medicine on the long-term prognosis of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) . [Methods] One hundred and fifty-seven AMI patients were divided into two groups according to the treatment during the hospitalization: 129 patients treated with Chinese herbal medicine and western medicine were in group A, and 28 patients treated with western medicine only were in group B. Statistical analysis of age, sex, infarction location, complications and medical history was made in all of the patients. A follow-up survey was made to investigate the subsistence of the patients and the incidences of all the events (including death and severe cardio-cerebrovascular events) . [Results] With the death as the end event, the survival graph of group A was higher than group B (P=0.1166); when with all the severe events as the end event, the survival graph of group A was still higher ( P=0.048) .[Conclusion] The probability of incidences of severe events including death in group A is lower than that in group B.

Purpose:To compare taxol,cisplatin(TP) and mitomycin, vinorelbine and cisplatin (MNP) with mitomycin,vindesine and cisplatin (MVP) and to evaluate the efficacy of the three regimens in patients with advanced non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods: One hundred and ten patients were enrolled in this study, 27 on TP, 40 on MNP and 43 on MVP. The characteristics of patients were comparable.Results:An objective response rate was observed in 51.9% of patients in the TP arm, 45.0% of patients in the MNP arm versus 32.6% in the MVP arm. The median duration of survival was 11.2 months in the TP arm, compared with 10.5 months in the MNP arm and 8.1 months in the MVP arm. The progression free survival was 9.0 months、8.0 months and 6.8 months in the TP、MNP and MVP arms, respectively. The major toxicities were bone marrow suppression、nausea、vomiting and alopecia.Conclusions:TP had a higher response rate than MNP and MVP, with acceptable toxicity. Its efficacy should be confirmed through a randomized study.

AlM: To evaluate the therapeutic effects and safety of femtosecond laser assisted penetrating keratoplasty ( FS-PKP) .
METHODS: ln the retrospective case series study, 46 cases ( 48 eyes ) with FS- PKP holds were analyzed. Preoperative best corrected visual acuity ( BCVA) was 2. 35 ± 1.01 (with a standard logarithmic eye chart). Opacities were all from epithelium to endothelium, including keratoconus, keratolukoma and corneal scarring etc. The full-thickness corneal donor-recipient grafts in different diameter and incision kerfangle were made by femtosecond laser in keratoplasty. The patients were treated according to the conventional penetrating keratoplasty after surgery. Evaluation indexes included preoperative and postoperative 1, 6, 10mo uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA), BCVA, corneal astigmatism (CA) and surgical complications. Forty-three cases (44 eyes) with traditional PKP were as control group. The data of two groups were analyzed by mean comparison of two groups and Chi-square test in SPSS 18. 0.
RESULTS: All the operations were completed successfully, postoperative visual acuity of all patients had different degrees of increase. Comparison with the postoperative UCVA of traditional PKP surgery, UCVA was 3. 48 ± 0. 43 and 2. 97 ± 1. 14 at 1mo after operation, respectively, with statistically significant difference ( P=0. 009). The UCVA was 3. 86±0. 25 and 3. 74±0. 73 at 3mo after operation, respectively; the UCVA was 4. 04 ± 0. 23 and 3. 98 ± 0. 29 at 6mo after operation, respectively, with no statistically significant difference (P=0. 146, P=0. 56). ln FS-PKP group, BCVA was better than traditional PKP surgery group, with statistically significant difference ( P=0. 002 ). While there had no statistically significant difference between two groups of BCVA at 6, 10mo after operation (P6mo =0. 132, P10mo =0. 47). The incidence of complication of FS-PKP surgery, such as postoperative astigmatism, postoperative intraocular pressure and postoperative incision dehiscence were significantly lower than the one of traditional PKP surgery(P<0. 05).
CONCLUSlON:Compared with traditional penetrating keratoplasty, FS-PKP provides significantly faster visual recovery in the early postoperative period, and induces significantly less corneal astigmatism and lower incidence of complication. lt reflected the clinical superiority of this new technology .
