Objective To investigate the efficacy of volume target pressure control(VTPC)and synchronized intermittent mandatory ventilation(SIMV)in treating severe neonatal respiratory distress syndrome(NRDS). Methods Fifty - six admitted cases with severe NRDS hospitalized in Jiangmen Central Hospital from October 2012 to March 2015 were randomly divided into 2 groups:28 cases in VTPC group were treated by VTPC and SIMV,and 28 cases in pressure control ventilation(PCV)group were treated by PCV and SIMV. There was no significant difference between 2 groups in terms of gender,gestational age,and birth weight(all P ﹥ 0. 05). Artery blood gas analysis was performed at 6 hours,12 hours,24 hours,and 48 hours respectively after ventilation. The following parameters were observed:the time of invasive mechanical ventilation,duration of oxygen therapy,mortality and the incidence rates of hypocapnia,pneumo-thorax,ventilator associated pneumonia( VAP),grade Ⅲ - Ⅳ periventricular intraventricular hemorrhage( PVH -IVH),periventricular leukomalacia(PVL)and bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD). Results No case in 2 groups withdrew from the test. There was no significant difference between 2 groups in terms of the first treatment time and total doses of poractant alfa injection(all P ﹥ 0. 05). The time of invasive mechanical ventilation in VTPC group[(71. 75 ± 9. 82)h]was shorter than that in PVC group[(97. 89 ± 16. 88)h](t = 7. 083,P = 0. 000). Hypocapnia incidence of four blood gas analysis in VTPC group[(19. 64 ± 14. 20)% ]was lower than that in PCV group[(47. 32 ± 18. 43)% ] (t = 6. 294,P = 0. 000). Incidence rates of VAP and PVL in VTPC group were lower than those in PCV group(χ2 =5. 197,P = 0. 023;χ2 = 4. 766,P = 0. 029). However,duration of oxygen therapy,mortality and the incidence rates of pneumothorax,Ⅲ - Ⅳ PVH - IVH and BPD were not significantly different between 2 groups( all P ﹥ 0. 05). Conclusion VTPC + SIMV has a better efficacy than PCV + SIMV in the treatment of NRDS.

Objective To explore the optimal experiment conditions of CCK-8 and MTS for cell proliferation assays in human amniotic epithelial cells and to evaluate the cytotoxicity of these reagents. Methods Human amniotic epithelial cells (hAECs) in logarithm growth stages were prepared in different cell concentrations with DMEM/F12 and 10% FBS. The sensitivity and optimal wavelengths was determined based on the optical density (OD) measured at 450 nm and 492 nm. The optimal time was determined under the conditions of the same cell concentration and defined OD values. HAECs were treated with DMSO, CCK-8 and MTS for 1 h, 2 h, 3 h, and 4 h, respectively. 24 h later, cytotoxicity of the CCK-8 and MTS was evaluated by determination of cell proliferation and Trypan Blue staining. Results The optimal detection wavelength was 450 nm for CCK-8, and 492 nm for MTS. The sensitivity of CCK-8 was slightly lower then that of MTS. The optimal time for incubation hAECs with CCK-8 was 4 h within 1~4 h. The inhibitory on cell proliferation and cytotoxicity of CCK-8 were weaker then those of MTS. Conclusion CCK-8 is a convenient reagent with low cytotoxicity for detection of the proliferation of hAECs.
