OBJECTIVE: To discuss the application of endotracheal intubation in the rescue of children with severe trachea and bronchial foreign body. By observing the patient's clinical pathological characteristics, the diagnosis and treatment experience were summarized. METHOD: A retrospective analysis of 10 children with severe tracheal and bronchial foreign bodies were performed. They were given emergency intubation and cardiopulmonary resuscitation to relieve respiratory and circulatory failure after reaching hospital. After the restoration of spontaneous respiration, oxygen saturation increased by more than 90 percent and vital signs stable, the foreigh body was removed with bronchoscopy. The role of endotracheal intubation before and after the treatment of tracheal and bronchial foreign bodies in children was observed. RESULT: Ten cases of children were rescued successfully. No one died and the complications such as cerebral palsy, pneumothorax and pneumomediastinum didn't happened. CONCLUSION For the children with severe tracheal and bronchial foreign body, endotracheal intubation can establish effective ventilation in a shorter period of time. The earlier endotracheal intubation, the shorter time required and the higher success rate. Endotracheal intubation can increase the survival rate of children with cardiopulmonary resuscitation, and can reduce disability.

Objective: To review the clinical data of patients who underwent maxillary and mandibular reconstruction with vascularized fibula osteomycutaneous flap, using virtual surgery planning. Methods: From January 2012 to December 2016, 23 patients with mandibular defect and 2 patients with maxillary defect were treated in our department. In virtual surgery planning, the optimal osteotomy line and angle were designed. Segmental maxillectomy and mandibulectomy, as well as mandibular reconstruction were performed using guided templates to practice the virtual planning.Actual reconstruction results were compared with those of virtual surgery. Results: Among the 25 patients, 2 patients were repaired with the ipsilateral fibula myocutaneous flap, 22 patients were lateral fibula myocutaneous flap. One case of maxillary type Ⅱd defect was repaired with left fibular muscle flap. All patients were followed up for 12 to 48 months. Satisfied bony unions and occlusion were observed in 25 patients.All patients reported excellent or good facial appearance. One of them received dental implants at 1 year postoperatively. Conclusions An ideal contour of maxilla and mandible can be obtained using vascularized fibula osteomycutaneous flap in virtual surgery.

BACKGROUNDAdoptive cell transfer (ACT) immunotherapy has been used clinically for years to treat malignancies. Improving the killing efficiency of effector cells, such as tumor-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs), is an important component for enhancing the clinical response of cancer immunotherapy. Hence, we explored a novel method for preparing cancer-specific CTLs using naive T lymphocytes.

METHODSC57BL/6 mice bearing B16 melanoma tumors were pretreated with cyclophosphamide (CTX) by peritoneal injection. The immunosuppressive influence of CTX on tumor regression and the tumor microenvironment was assessed. Naive T cells and T cell pools were isolated via negative selection using immunomagnetic beads. The proliferative potential and cytokine production of different T cell subpopulations were evaluated in vitro. Tumor-specific CTLs derived from naive T cells (naive CD4+ T cells: naive CD8+ T cells = 2:1) and pooled T cells were generated in vitro, respectively. B16 melanoma-bearing C57BL/6 mice were pretreated with CTX, followed by ACT immunotherapy using dendritic cell-induced CTLs. The homing abilities of the effector cells and interleukin-2 (IL-2), interferon-γ, granzyme B, and perforin mRNA levels in tumor tissues were evaluated, and the change in tumor volume was measured.

RESULTSMice receiving CTX peritoneal pretreatment injections did not display tumor regression compared with control mice. However, a significant downregulation of splenic Tregs and tumor growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) serum levels was observed (P < 0.05). Naive T cells showed a stronger proliferative capacity and elevated cytokine production than did pooled T cells (P < 0.05). In addition, effector cells generated from naive T cells displayed more potent antitumor activity in vivo than those derived from pooled T cells (P < 0.05).

CONCLUSIONEffector cells derived from the naive T cells possess a stronger proliferative potential, homing capacity, and enhanced cytokine production, which leads to a superior antitumor response.
