Objective To evaluate the application effect of clinical pathways (CP) in children with bronchopneumonia.Methods The literature of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in children with bronchopneumonia were retrieved by searching PubMed,Cochrane Library,Web of Knowledge,Wanfang database,VIP,and CNKI from their inception date to March 2014.Meta-analysis was performed by Revman 5.2software.Results Six RCTs involving 24 559 patients were finally selected,with 12 269 cases in the CP group and 12 290 cases in the traditional treatment group.The results of Meta-analysis showed that there were significant differences between the CP group and the traditional treatment group in the cure rate [OR =1.67,95 % CI (1.03,2.77),P =0.04],length of hospital stay [MD =-1.21,95 % CI (-1.95,-0.48),P =0.001],hospitalization expenses [SMD =-3.68,95 % CI (-5.04,-2.32),P < 0.000 1],days of antibiotic using [MD =-1.20,95 % CI (-1.51,-0.89),P < 0.000 01] and patient satisfaction [OR =6.12,95 % CI(3.12,12.04),P < 0.000 01].Conclusion CP is superior compared with the traditional treatment for bronchopneumonia,and is worthy of spread in clinical.

Cell culture plays an important role in virology. It provides a platform for the detection and isolation of viruses as well as for the biochemistry and molecular biology based studies of viruses. In the present work, a new system that could permits multiple (different) cell lines to be simultaneously cultured in one dish was developed. In the system, each cell line was cultured in an isolated zone in the same dish or well and the system is therefore called an isolated co-culture system. The usefulness of this novel approach for virus isolation was demonstrated using a model system based on adenovirus.
