Objective To discuss the clinical efficacy and nursing points of Curosurf combined with nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP) on children with neonatal respiratory failure.Methods Children with neonatal respiratory failure were randomly divided into the control group and the treatment group. Children in control group were treated with NCPAP and in treatment group were given Curosurf combined with NCPAP. The blood gas indexes and clinical efficacy were recorded and analyzed before and after treatment.Results The total effective rate in treatment group (88.89%) was significantly higher than that in control group (77.78%) after treatment for 48 hours ( <0.05) . Compared with children in control group, the blood gas indexes of children in treatment group were significantly higher after treatment ( <0.05) . Conclusion The methods of Curosurf combined with NCPAP and careful nursing can significantly improve clinical efficacy in the treatment of neonatal respiratory failure.

[Objective] To investigate the variation of Q promoter (Qp) in nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) cells, and to compare the existing two mutant sites [62 225 site(g→a)and 62 422 site (g→c) ] Qp in NPC cells with the Qp in B95.8 cell line in the functional and biological difference. [Methods] The Qp sequence was amplified in the samples from 29 cases of paraffin-embedded tissues of NPC suffers and 14 cases of peripheral blood of healthy adults by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method (totally 43 cases). The point mutations on specified sites were analyzed and statistically compared from sequencing results. The sequences of variant and prototype Qp were amplified by PCR and cloned into luciferase reporter vector (pGL3-basic), then transfected into HaCat cells respectively. The transcriptional activity was compared between variant and prototype Qp using luciferase reporter system. The DNA binding affinity of mutant and prototype Qp to Sp1 was compared through chromatin immunoprecipitation (CHIP) method since mutation of nt 62 225 located in a Spl binding site. [Results] The mutation rate of Qp was significantly higher in NPC compared with healthy controls (P=0.039 5, <0.05), which suggested the variant Qp was closely associated with NPC. The transcription of the luciferase gene promoted by variant Qp was significant more than that of prototype Qp in transient transfection assay (2.5:1, P<0.05). The binding affinity of variant Qp to Sp1 was about 1.52 times higher than that of prototype Qp as determined by quantitative ChIP assay. [Conclusions] The transcriptional activity was enhanced in variant Qp in NPC cells compared with prototype, which possibly through the higher binding affinity to Sp1. We suggest that the mutated Qp may play an important role during the EBV infection and transformation of nasopharyngeal epithelium.

The changes of plasma myostatin levels in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and their clinical correlation were investigated. We recruited 43 T2D patients and 20 age-matched healthy subjects. Plasma myostatin, lipid and glucose, and serum insulin were determined. T2D patients showed significantly higher fasting plasma glucose (FPG), serum insulin and triglyceride levels, and lower high-density lipoprotein levels than normal control subjects (P<0.01). Mean plasma myostatin level in T2D patients and health controls was (66.5±17.8) and (46.2±13.8) ng/mL, respectively. An unpaired t test showed that the increase of myostatin in the T2D patients was significant (P<0.001). In both healthy control and T2D groups, the female subjects showed higher myostatin levels than the male subjects. In the T2D patients, plasma level of myostatin was negatively correlated with body mass index (BMI, r=-0.42, P<0.01) and FPG (r=-0.51, P[Symbol: see text]0.01), but positively correlated with insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR, r=0.48, P<0.01). Up-regulation of plasma myostatin in the T2D patients and its correlation with BMI, FPG and blood insulin sensitivity suggests that plasma myostatin may be implicated in the pathogenesis of T2D and thus presented as a therapeutic target for treating the disease. Furthermore, circulating myostatin levels may be used as a biomarker for the disease.

Objective To compare the stability of multi-rod structures with double-headed screws and traditional connectors in posterior three-column osteotomy of the spine using finite element analysis.Methods A finite element model of the T3-L4 thoracolumbar spine was constructed based on postoperative computed tomography(CT)data of patients with severe kyphosis.Based on the patient's standard two-rod model(2R),a double-headed screw multi-rod structure model(4R-DHS)and a traditional connector multi-rod structure model(4R-TC)were constructed.The two models were evaluated under 300 N follower load and 7.5 N-m moment load,and the stability,maximum von Mises stresses on the main rods,and stress distributions of the two multi-rod structures were analyzed.Results There was little difference in the stability between the two multi-rod structures.Compared with 4R-TC,4R-DHS showed a decrease in the maximum von Mises stresses on the main rods during all motions(the stress decreased by 7.2%,8.8%,8.7%,18.5%,and 16.9%during flexion,left lateral bending,right lateral bending,left axial rotation,and right axial rotation,respectively)and more uniform stress distribution,except for a slight increase in the maximum von Mises stresses on the main rods during post-extension.Conclusions The double-headed screw multi-rod structure can reduce the maximum stress on the main rod compared with the traditional connector multi-rod structure,and there is no problem with stress concentration on the main rod near the connector,which can more effectively reduce the risk of internal fixation failure.

Objective:It sorts out the relevant policies of China's public hospital salary system reform,summarizes the short-comings of public hospital salary policy in the process of formulation,and provides references for the subsequent adjustment and opti-mization of salary system.Methods:Based on Policy Modeling Consistency(PMC)index model,public hospital salary policies were collected and preprocessed,high-frequency words were extracted by text mining method,and an evaluation index system of sal-ary policies of public hospitals was constructed.By calculating the score of PMC index and first-level variables,the common prob-lems of various policies are analyzed,and specific suggestions were put forward.Results:The average PMC index of 12 public hos-pital compensation policies was 6.00,the overall quality of the policies was good,but there was still much room for improvement.The main common problems are the lack of internal and external linkage,the neglect of the incentive function of non-economic com-pensation and the unreasonable compensation structure.Conclusion:From the perspective of policy,the reform of public hospital salary system is a systematic project.It is suggested to take holistic thinking as the guide in the follow-up policy making process,en-hance the internal and extemal coordination of the policy,attach importance to the incentive role of non-economic compensation and optimize the salary structure,so as to promote the steady operation of the salary system reform of public hospitals.
