Objective To investigate the method of reducing the formation of fibrous capsule by means of changing the surface capacility of silicone breast implants. Methods N vinyl pyrrolidone ( N VP),the hydrophilic monomer, was grafted onto the surface of silicone breast implants by 60 C oradiation. 10 rabbits were used in this study and the implants were buried in the bilateral subcutaneous layers of the back of rabbits. The unchanged implants were used as the control group. At various interval, gross and microscopic examinations were made to observe the fiber capsule formation around the implants.Results Compared with the control group, the grafting implants induced slight histological reaction and the thickness of fiber capsule was decreased statistically in every time point ( P

Objective To compare the validity of general movements ( GM ) assessment with that of a 52 item neurological motor examination in predicting cerebral palsy among high risk neonates.Methods Eighty-four infants aged 12 months at high risk were evaluated simultaneously with GM assessment and the 52 item neurological motor examination.The utility of the two methods in predicting cerebral palsy was then compared.Results There were 4 cerebral palsy patients among the 84 high risk neonates.The GM assessment's predictive validity for Monotonous movements was 78.57％,its sensitivity was 25％,its specificity was 81.25％,its positive predictive value was 6.25％,its negative predictive value was 95.59％,and its kappa value was 0.215.The comparable values for the Cramped-synchronised scale were validity 96.43％,sensitivity 50％,specificity 98.75％,positive predictive value 66.67％,negative predictive value 97.53％,and kappa value O.553.The values for the absence of Fidgety movements were validity 98.81％,sensitivity 75％,specificity 100％,positive predictive value 100％,negative predictive value 98.77％,and kappa value 0.851.For the entire 52 items of the neurological motor examination the corresponding values were validity 51.19％,sensitivity 100％,specificity 48.75％,positive predictive value 8.89％,negative predictive value 100％,and kappa value 0.083.Conclusions GM assessment can predict the severe neurological deficits of cerebral palsy among high risk neonates by the age of 12 months.The 52-item neurological motor examination can detect mild and moderate neurological deficits.GM assessment combined with the 52-item neurological motor examination is a desirable and effective way to assess high risk infants.

Objective To study the effectiveness of family-integrated-care (FICare) for preterm infants with moderate to severe bronchopuhnonary dysplasia (BPD) in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).Method Preterm infants with moderate to severe BPD in Hunan Children's Hospital from January 2015 to March 2016 were selected as the objects.These infants were assigned into two groups (FICare group and control group) in the base of whether the parents agreed to implement FICare.If the infant was enrolled into FICare group,the parents need to spend 3 hours in ward every day,and participate in nursing services under the guidance of nurses.The nursing services included bathing,cuddling,skin care,breast-feeding,and so on.If the infant was enrolled into control group,these nursing services were implemented by nurses.Oxygen exposure time,breast-feeding rate,time of begin oral feeding,time of total oral feeding,weight growth rate during hospitalization,weight of discharge,length of stay,readmission rate within 30 days,the rate of parents that mastered basic care knowledge and skills when discharge from hospital,the rate of satisfaction,and the rate of follow-up within 30 days of the two groups were compared.Result There were 106 cases in our study,54 in the FICare group and 52 in the control group.Compare the FICare group and the control group,there were statistical differences between two groups in the follow aspects (all P ＜ 0.05):oxygen exposure time [(57.1 ±20.9) d vs.(71.4 ±32.6) d],breast-feeding rate (77.8％ vs.44.2％),time of total oral feeding [(46.1 4 19.6) d vs.(59.4 ± 30.2) d,length of stay [(65.8 ± 18.4) d vs.(84.3 ±35.0) d],the rate of parents that mastered basic care knowledge and skills when discharge from hospital (96.3％ vs.82.7％),the rate of satisfaction (94.4％ vs.84.6％),the rate of follow-up within 30 days (92.6％ vs.73.1％).Conclusion FICare could significantly reduce oxygen exposure time of preterm infants with moderate to severe BPD,could improve the level of parents mastered basic care knowledge and skills of preterm infants,especially in critically ill preterm children,and could shorten length of stay of them.FICare is beneficial to the healthy growth of premature infants with BPD.

Objective To study the expression of plasma oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) in children with acute phase Kawasaki disease (KD), and investigate its value for early prediction of coronary artery lesions in KD. Methods Totally 80 children with KD were collected. Children were divided into four groups by the results of echocardiogram of coronary artery in different periods: CAL1 group (children with coronary artery lesions (CAL+) both in acute and sub-acute phase, 8 cases), CAL2 group (children with CAL+in acute phase but recovery normal (CAL-) in sub-acute phase, 10 cases), NCAL1 group (children with CAL-in acute phase but occur CAL+ in sub-acute phase, 10 cases) and NCAL2 group (children with CAL- both in acute and sub-acute phase, 52 cases). The serum samples (before the use of intravenous immunoglobulin) were collected in acute phase. Twenty healthy controls and twenty fever controls were enrolled into the study, and their serum samples were collected. OxLDL was measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). They were compared using ANOVA, pairwise comparison LSD-t test. And ROC curve analysis was used to determine the threshold. Results Compared with the control groups,plasma oxLDL levels were higher in children with KD, both CA+and CAL-[(15.0±3.3) mU/L, (12.3±3.5) mU/L vs (9.2±2.2) mU/L, (8.0±2.3) mU/L, F=20.435, P<0.05]. Plasma oxLDL levels were increased more significantly in children with CAL+ than children with CAL- in KD [(15.0 ±3.3) mU/L vs (12.3 ±3.5) mU/L, t=2.28, P=0.002]. There was significant difference in the concentration of oxLDL between the groups of Kawasaki disease (F=5.068, P=0.003). Plasma oxLDL levels were significantly higher in the NCAL1 group than those in the NCAL2 group [(14.5 ±3.8) mU/L vs (11.9±3.3) mU/L, t=2.29, P=0.02], but there were no statistically significant difference between the NCAL1 group and CAL1 or CAL2 group [(14.5±3.8) mU/L vs (15.9±3.9) mU/L, (14.5±3.8) mU/L vs (14.2±2.7) mU/L, t=0.73, 0.20;P=0.41, 0.84]. ROCs analysis indicated that oxLDL≥13.83 mU/L, could be the threshold for the prediction of coronary artery lesions with the sensitivity of 0.607 and a specificity of 0.75. Conclusion OxLDL plays an important role in coronary artery lesions in KD. The coronary endothelial dysfunction is earlier than coronary dilatation, and oxLDL is expected to become a reliable early predictor of coronary artery lesions in KD.

Objective:To investigate the effect of biological maternal sounds on blood gas analysis index, mechanical ventilation time, oxygen therapy time and hospital stay in mechanically ventilated children with severe pneumonia.Methods:This study was a randomized controlled trial. From June 2020 to November 2020, 128 mechanically ventilated children with severe pneumonia in Hunan Children′s Hospital were selected by convenient sampling method and divided into four groups with 32 cases in each group by random number table method. Group A was given routine nursing care, group B was given mother sounds, group C was given mother cardiotone, group D was given biological maternal sounds. Data of blood gas analysis index, mechanical ventilation duration, oxygen therapy duration, hospital stays were collected for comparative analysis.Results:Finally, group A, B, C, and D included 28, 30, 28 and 28 cases, respectively. There was no statistically significant difference in PaO 2 among the four groups on the 1st to 2nd day after intervention ( P>0.05), but PaO 2 on the 3rd to 7th day after intervention were (75.57 ± 12.88), (77.71 ± 15.81), (78.21 ± 14.51), (78.64 ± 17.71), (79.04 ± 11.57) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa), (81.71 ± 17.89), (82.93 ± 18.36), (82.68 ± 15.47), (83.25 ± 14.24), (83.77 ± 13.90) mmHg, (80.89 ± 18.78) (82.11 ± 13.34), (82.96 ± 14.20), (83.43 ± 14.37), (83.68 ± 12.64) mmHg, (84.54 ± 18.77), (86.29 ± 10.94), (86.96 ± 10.53), (87.46 ± 12.64), (89.08 ± 12.21) mmHg, with statistically significant differences ( F values were 41.17 - 332.68, all P<0.01). Further pairwise comparison revealed that PaO 2 in group B and group C were higher than those in group A on the 3rd to 7th day after intervention, while those in group D were higher on the 3rd to 7th day after intervention than those in group A, B, and C, with statistically significant differences( t values were 3.35- 4.75, all P<0.01). There was no statistically significant difference in PaCO 2 among the four groups on the 1st to 4th day after intervention ( P>0.05), but PaCO 2 on the 5th to 7th day after intervention was (47.31 ± 2.89), (46.18 ± 2.06), (41.94 ± 2.09) mmHg, (44.73 ± 1.76), (41.38 ± 1.30), (38.33 ± 1.16) mmHg, (44.81 ± 1.24), (41.23 ± 1.89), (38.73 ± 2.55) mmHg, (40.83 ± 1.78), (37.87 ± 1.43), (34.78 ± 2.05) mmHg, with statistically significant differences ( F=29.48, 36.12, 34.52, all P<0.05). Further pairwise comparison revealed that PaCO 2 in group B and group C were lower than those in group A on the 5th to 7th day after intervention, while PaCO 2 in group D were lower than those in groups A, B, and C, with statistically significant differences ( t values were 3.37-4.85, all P<0.01). During the analysis of PaO 2 and PaCO 2 in the four groups at different time points, the interaction effects were not statistically significant ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference in invasive mechanical ventilation duration, non-invasive mechanical ventilation duration and hospital stay among the four groups after intervention ( P>0.05). The oxygen therapy time of the four groups were (8.61 ± 6.40), (6.17 ± 4.80), (6.23 ± 2.75), and (3.75 ± 2.10) days, with statistically significant differences ( F=17.27, P<0.01). Further pairwise comparison revealed that the oxygen therapy time in group B and group C was shorter than that in group A, while group D was significantly shorter than that in groups A, B, and C, with statistically significant differences ( t values were 4.02-4.74, all P<0.01). Conclusions:Biological maternal sounds is superior to maternal sound and mother cardiotone in improve the blood gas analysis index, shorten the oxygen treatment time, which is worthy of clinical promotion in neonatal unaccompanied ward.
