Objective To assess ventilation administration during fiberoptic bronchoscopy (FB) in neonates. Methods Twenty-three neonates divided into two group (A group 12 neonates, B group 11 neonates) received FB. All were given pressure support ventilation (PSV)by a Y-like facility which connected to fiberoptic bronchoscope suction hole. In A group,after the tip of fiberoptic bronchoscope arrived at the carina, PSV was administrated. In B group, PSV was administrated in the entire process during FB, SpO2 and electrocardio were monitoring. Artery blood samples for blood gas analysis were obtained at four stages of just before FB,with the tip of the bronchoscope at the supralarynx,just before withdrawing bronchoscope out off trachea and within 20-30 minutes after FB. The arterial blood oxygen tension (PaO2), arterial blood carbon dioxide tension (PaCO2) and SpO2 just before FB served as baseline. The same indexes of other three stages were compared with the baseline. Results All 23 neonates were studied completely. When the tip of fiberoptic bronchoscope advanced from nostril to the supralarynx, SpO2, PaO2 and PaCO2 in two groups were similar to the baseline. In A group, when the tip below the glottis, cyanosis occurred, and SpO2 decreased significantly ( P<0. 01 ) in 11 cases (92%) by 25% ; When tip at the carina, after PSV, cyanosis disappeared, and SpO2 returned to the baseline level, PaO2 keep on the baseline just before withdrawing the bronchoscope out of the trachea. SpO2 ,PaO2 in all B group neonates keep on the baseline during FB. After the tip below the glottis,PaCO2 in all neonates of the two groups increased significantly ( P<0. 01 ), but returned to baseline within 20-30 minutes after FB. Conclusion FB can cause significant hypoxemia and hypercapnia in neonates. PSV through fiberoptic bronchoscope can be considered a safe and beneficial ventilation technique for maintaining oxygenation during FB.

Rhei Rhizoma is a Chinese medicine with multiple botanical origins. There is a problem to identify it with conventional methods. To compare the characteristics of chloroplast matK gene sequences of different Rheum species and authenticate inspected species, the matK gene sequences of different species from different origins were amplified, cloned, and sequenced. Genomic DNA of Rheum plants was extracted using modified DNA extracted Kit and matK gene sequences were analyzed by ContingExpress, DNAman and MEGA5.0. The length of matK gene sequences of Rheum palmatum, R. tanguticum and R. officinale were 1 518 bp containing 57 variable loci. According to the mutation sites, R. palmatum, R. tanguticum and R. officinale were divided into different genotypes separately. Based on the established method according to the loci 587, 707, 838, we successfully identified the genuine Rheum species from its adulterants.

Objective To investigate the predictive value of clinical and radiographic features in fungal pathogen identification in immunocompromised patients with pulmonary invasive fungal infection (IFI).Methods All consecutive immunocompromised adult patients with pulmonary IFI in respiratory intensive care unit (ICU)in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University were recruited during a 2 year period.All patients met the 2008 European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer and Mycoses Study Group (EORTC /MSG) criteria were studied for proved or probable IFI responding to antifungal agents.The data of demographic,clinical and radiographic features,as well as serological test results of the patients were collected.Differences in the clinical and radiographic features of pulmonary IFIs caused by yeasts and molds were compared by χ2 test.A logistic regression model was used to perform discriminant analysis,and the effect of discrimination was assessed for accuracy.Results The study included 143 patients with a probable diagnosis of IFI who had the following risk factors:diabetes mellitus (43.4%),chronic lung disease (32.2%),broad-spectrum antibiotics administration (≥14 days;35.7%),malignancy (23.1%),corticosteroid therapy (≥14 days;23.1%),chronic renal failure and renal replacement therapy (16.1%),and immunological disease (10.5%).Frequent broad-spectrum antibiotics administration was associated with yeast infection (P <0.05 ),while mold infection was associated with chronic lung disease (P <0.05 ) .Yeast was more often isolated from patients with concurrent bacterial infection and on mechanical ventilation (P <0.05 ) . Thoracic high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT)showed the following images:bronchial pneumonia/pulmonary consolidation (53.1%),massive shadowing (29.4%),small nodules (24.5%),large nodules (18.9%),pleural effusion (18.9%),halo sign (14%),and cavity (9.8%).Imaging showed that mold was more common than yeast in patients with pleural and pericardial effusions (P <0.05).Logistic regression modeling showed that broad-spectrum antibiotics administration,prolonged mechanical ventilation,and pleural and pericardial effusions were statistically significant in fungal identification (P <0.05 ),with a predictive accuracy of 77.6%.Conclusions For immunocompromised patients with pulmonary IFI,most of the risk factors ,the main clinical and chest HRCT features did not help to predict the type of fungal pathogen,and yeast but not cryptococcus may be accompanied or colonized.
