To evaluate the role of the vagal afferents in the generation and formation of high frequency oscillation (HFO), effect of selective electrical stimulation of A?-? afferent fiber groups of the vagus nerve (0.4-0.5 V, 0.1ms, 5-160 Hz), applied at three respiratory phases: inspiratory phase (IS), expiratory phase (ES), and continuous phase throughout both IS and ES (CS), on the phrenic HFO was quantitatively assessed on ether-anesthetized, vagotomized, paralyzed and artificially ventilated rabbits. After calculation of the power spectrum of the efferent phrenic nerve activity, the mean square values (MSV), representing total amount of HFO-output, and the peak frequency of the HFO were estimated by means of curve-fitting method. Regardless of the mode of the stimulation, the MSV decreased in a stimulus-frequency dependent fashion. The CS was most potent, then IS, and ES was less effective, though the reduction was significant (p

ObjectiveTo compare the values of serum citrulline, intestinal fatty acid binding protein (IFABP) and intes-tinal trefoil factor (ITF) in diagnosis of acute gastrointestinal injury in critically ill children.MethodsA total of 84 critically ill children were enrolled. The serum citrullin, IFABP, and ITF were measured by high performance liquid chromatography and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The testing results and clinical data were analyzed.ResultsCompared with non gastroin-testinal injury group, the serum citrulline level was signiifcantly lower and IFABP and ITF levels were signiifcantly higher in gas-trointestinal injury group (allP<0.05). In critically ill children, the serum citrulline level was negatively correlated with C-reactive protein, procalcitonin and hospitalization time (r=-0.36 to -0.31,P<0.01).ConclusionsThe levels of citrulline, IFABP and ITF have diagnostic values for acute gastrointestinal injury in critically ill children. The level of citrulline may relfect the degree of acute gastrointestinal injury in critically ill children.
