Objective To determine the vitamin D status in children with sepsis/severe sepsis in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) in order to explor the association between vitamin D status and clinical outcomes,in turn to provide evidence for optimizing nutrition support.Methods It was a prospective,observational,multi-center study,carried out in patients with sepsis/severe sepsis from March 1,2013,to March 30,2014,in the PICUs of three tertiary-care children's hospitals.Total serum 25-hydroxy vitamin D [25 (OH) D] was measured by using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay at admission.The association of vitamin D status at admission with length of PICU length of stay,total hospital stay,in-hospital mortality,28-days mortality and costs were analyzed.Results A total of 194 patients includng 117 boys (60.3％)and 77 girls (39.7％) were enrolled.There were 96 patients with sepsis and 98 with severe sepsis.The mortality on discharge and 28 days were 6.7％ and 24.2％ respectively.The median vitamin D level was 9.79 ng/mL (5.32,18.46) at admission.Of them 77.8％ (151/194) had vitamin D deficiency and 50.5％ (98/194) had severe vitamin D deficiency.Patients with severe vitamin D deficiency,had higher mortality on discharge (P =0.011).Vitamin D status had no significant correlations with 28 days mortality,length of PICU stay,total hospital stay and costs.Conclusions More than three-quarters (77.8％) of children with sepsis/severe sepsis in PICUs had Vitamin D deficiency.Patients with severe vitamin D deficiency at admission had higher risk of mortality at discharge.

Objective To explore the application value of pulse indicator continuous cardiac output (PiCCO) monitoring in the fluid management of children with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).Methods Thirty-two children with ARDS admitted to Pediatric Intensive Care Unit(PICU) of Zhengzhou Children's Hospital,from April 2013 to April 2016,were divided into intervention group (15 cases) and control group (17 cases) by adopting random number table method.Fluid management of intervention group by PiCCO,control group by central venous pressure,the 2 groups' oxygenation index (OI),acute lung injury score,mechanical ventilation time and 28 days mortality were statistically compared.The categorical data were analyzed by using SPSS 11.0 software,and the t test was used for the measurement data.The categorical data and mortality comparison were analyzed by adopting x2 test.The difference was statistically significant at P ＜ 0.05.Results After 3 days of mechanical ventilation,the changes of OI in the intervention group were significantly higher than those in the control group [(175.0 ±-43.7) mmHg vs.(143.0 ± 42.8) mmHg (1 mmHg =0.133 kPa),t =2.090 0,P ＜ 0.05].The intervention group was significantly shorter than the control group [(10.45 ± 3.12) d vs.(12.63 ± 2.87) d,t =2.058 7,P ＜ 0.05].There was no significant difference between 2 groups in acute lung injury score,PICU length of stay and 28 days mortality (all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions PiCCO monitoring and guidance in the fluid management of pediatric ARDS can improve oxygenation after 3 days,reduce mechanical ventilation time,but can not significantly reduce the 28-day mortality.

Objective To investigate the influence of IVIG on immunologic function and cytokines levels in children with EV71 infection associated high-risk pulmonary hemorrhage. Methods According to the inclu-sion criteria , 64 children were enrolled and randomly divided into two groups: 39 cases in the IVIG treatment group and 25 cases in the general treatment group. The alternations of blood and immune cytokine markers before and after treatment were detected in the patients. Results (1) Before treatment, the peripheral blood T cells, TH and B cells in the IVIG group were higher than those in the general group , but the peripheral blood IgA was lower than that in the general group(P < 0.05); (2) In the IVIG group, the NK cells and IgG increased and T cells, TH cell and B cells significantly decreased after receiving IVIG therapy (P < 0.05); (3)No significant difference was observed in the levels of IL-6 and IL-10 in the two treatment groups before treatment. However , after IVIG treatment, IL-6 and IFN-γ levels reduced, IL-10 level increased (P < 0.05). After the general treat-ment, no significant difference was found in levels of IL-6,IL-10 and IFN-γ in peripheral blood (P > 0.05). Conclusion Disorders of cellular immunity and humoral immunity appeared in children with EV71 infection-re-lated high-risk pulmonary hemorrhage. It has clinical value to use IVIG timely to regulate the immune disorder.

Objective To investigate the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) in critically ill children with pediatric critical score (PCIS) and pediatric death risk score (PRISM),comparing its value.Methods A total of 100 cases of matching children with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) to stay in our hospital during 2007.07 ～2012.07 was retrospectively analyzed.Check PICU most serious disease in this group of children,living PICU most severely ill when diagnosed with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS),when it was suffering from ARDS most serious line PCIS with PRISM score,and then using the Logistic multiple regression to analyze the scores of the two scoring ability as predicting the ARDS death in children with risk factors,and using two-factor analysis of variance of the two scoring methods by judging linear correlation existence.Results (1)PCIS with PRISM score showed a negative correlation (r=-0.6031,P ＜0.01),the linear regression equation y =-0.2389x +74.816 (P＜0.01).(2) There was no statistical difference between the ARDS death group and survival group (P ＞ 0.05) ; By PCIS PRISM score LOGISTIC regression analysis of the risk of death in children,there was no statistical difference (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions PCIS and PRISM score cannot be the standards to forecast the death of the ARDS patients,but can provide an objective referring standard of ARDS's treatment.

Objective To study the clinical efficacy of free anterolateral femoral skin flap on the repair of skin and subcutaneous soft tissue defects caused by excision of oversized malignant tumour in the skin. Methods A retrospective review was performed of free anterolateral femoral skin flap reconstructions for oversized malignant tumor cut on body surface since April 2007 to November 2010. There were 6 patients with head and limb squamous cell carcinoma because of bum scar and 3 patients with recurrence of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans in wall of belly. The area of soft tissue defects ranged from 19 cm × 15 cm to 24 cm × 21 cm, and skin flaps was 20 cm × 16 cm to 25 cm × 22 cm in size. Three cases received radio therapy after operation. Results Nine flaps survived perfectly, one flap survived with partial necrosis and healed after changing dressings. No complications were observed in the donor site, including wound dehiscence, hernia and weakness. Follow-up survey of 12-24 months after the operation showed that the appearance and function in the repaired sites were normal, and norecurrence of the tumors. Conclusion Free transplantation of anterolateral femoral skin flap is relatively an ideal operative type for the repair of soft tissue defects caused by excision of oversized malignant tumour in the skin.

Paraquat(PQ) poisoning can lead to high fatalities due to the lack of a specific antidote. Besides routine treatment,excretion of PQ through blood purification at early stages and use of glucocorti-coid,immunosuppressant and antioxidant to prevent the important organs injury show effectiveness in the treatment of non-explosive PQ poisoning,which are the focus of current research.However,there is no ground breaking progress.Lung transplantation is becoming a potential therapy for the patients with severe pulmonary fibrosis.

Objective To explore the clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment of congenital disorder of glycosylation type 1a (CDG-Ⅰa), a rare inherited metabolic disease. Methods The clinical data and the gene detection results of one case of CDG-Ia which was discovered because the case had encephalopathy and hepatopathy were retrospectively analyzed. The related literatures were reviewed. Results Male infant suffered with face and trunk rash, motor development retardation, malnutrition, cheek fat plump, low limbs muscle tone, and bilateral crater nipple at 3 months old. Abnormal liver function and mild renal impairment were found after examination. The development quotient was low. Head MRI showed that bilateral frontal and temporal sulcus widening, and cerebellar atrophy. Urinary organic acids, amino acids, carnitine, and biotin activities were normal. Gene sequencing revealed that there were two heterozygous mutations, c.430T>C (p.F144L) and c.713G>C (p.R238P), in the PMM2 gene. The diagnosis of CDG-Ⅰa was confirmed. Both of the infant's parents were healthy, and each of them carries a pathogenic mutation. The infant had an elder brother who had mental disorder and died for liver and kidney function damage and hydronephrosis at 8 months old. Conclusion CDG-Ⅰa is an autosomal recessive disease. For infants with unexplained multiple organ damage, especially combined with intelligent and motor development retardations, strabismus, nipple retraction, and cerebellar atrophy, the possibility of CDG-Ⅰa should be considered. Gene detection of PMM2 can help the diagnosis.

Objective To study clinical application of Bard automated disposable instrument for percutaneous transtheracic biopsy guided by CT in diagnosis of pulmonary lesions. Methods Percutaneons transthoracic biopsy was performed with CT-guided Bard automated disposable instrument for 95 patients with pulmonary lesions but without established diagnosis by clinical and imaging procedures in order to obtain pathological diagnosis. Results Tissue specimens were obtained from all the 95 patients by Bard automated disposable instrument for percutaneous transthoracis biopsy, with a hundred percent of success. After the procedure, 68 of 95 were pathologically diagnosed as lung cancer (including adenocarcinoma in 44,squamous carcinoma in 19, alveolar cell carcinoma in three and small cell carcinoma in two), 10 as chronic inflammatory lesions, eight as tuberculosis, two as inflammatory pseudotumor, one as metastatic cancer, two as fungal infection, and four without an established diagnosis, with an overall diagnosis rate of 95.8%.Pneumothorax occurred in eight and mild haemoptysis in six of 95 patients, respectively, by the procedure.Conclusion Percutaneons transthoracic biopsy with Bard automated disposable instrument is an effective diagnostic procedure for patients with pulmonary lesions but their diagnoses were not established by routine examinations.
