1.Clinical analysis of 380 cases pregnant women with abnormal glucose metabolism
Chinese Journal of Primary Medicine and Pharmacy 2008;15(10):1671-1672
Objective To study the relationship between blood lipid levels, insulin therapy of pregnant women with abnormal glucose metabolism and perinatal outcomes. Methods 380 pregnant women who were diag-nosed and treated for abnormal glucose metabolism were enrolled in this study,including 24 cases with diabetes melli-tus(DM),164 eases with gestation diabetes mellitus (GDM), 192 cases with gestation impaired 81ucose tolerance (GIGT). Among the 380 cases, 136 cases were performed insulin therapy with diet controlling,244 cases diet control-ling. Results The incidence of pre-eclampsia and preterm labor in the DM group(41.7% and 41.7% )was higher than that in GIGT group(15.6% and 20.7%)and GDM group(15.9% and 18. 3%) (P<0.05). Among the three groups ,the incidence of macrosomia, polyhydranmios and fetal distress had no significant difference( P>0.05 ). While the incipience of neonatal asphyxia,hypoglycemia in the DM group were all higher than that in GDM and GIGT group ( P<0.01 ). The newborn weights in insulin therapy group( 2891.5±1330.4 g) was lower than that in diet controlling group(3751.2±1025.3 g) ( P<0.05 ). Conclusion The blood lipid level of pregnant women with gestational ab-normal glucose metabolism is one of the effective indexes to prognose perinatal outcomes. Reducing blood lipid levelcan decrease the incidence of pre-eclampsia and preterm labor,neonatal asphyxia and hypoglycemia significantly. Di-agnosing and beginning therapy as soon as possible and using insulin are important,especially to reduce the rate of macrosomia and newbem weights.
5.The correlation between serum concentration of vitamin A and NRDS in preterm infants
Journal of Clinical Pediatrics 2015;(8):734-737
ObjectivesTo observe correlation between serum vitamin A status and prevalence or severity of NRDS. MethodsRecruited into this study were 166 preterm infants admitted to our neonatal department. The serum concentration of vitamin A was measured, and the prevalence of NRDS at different levels of vitamin A was compared. According to the clinical manifestation and X-rays, there were 30 infants diagnosed as NRDS. Another 30 patients from the rest 133 infants without NRDS were randomly selected as control group according to the gestational ages, then the difference between NRDS group and control group were observed according to gestational ages. The 30 preterm infants with NRDS were divided further into mild group (in-cluding stagesⅠandⅡ,n=18) and severe group (including stageⅢ andⅣ,n=12) according to ifndings chest X-ray, then the difference between these two groups were observed.ResultsIn the 166 preterm infants recruited, 65/166 had serum vitamin A lower than 0.35 μmol/L, in which 14/65 (21.54%) were NRDS patients. Another 93/166 patients had serum vitamin A ranged from 0.35 μmol/L to 0.7 μmol/L, in which 15/93 (16.13%) were NRDS patient. The rest 8/166 had serum vitamin A higher than 0.7 μmol/L, in which 1/8 (12.50%) were NRDS patient. However, the differences between each two groups were not signiifcant. When gestational ages ranged from 34 to 37 weeks, the serum concentrations of vitamin A of NRDS group were lower than that in controls (P<0.05). No signiifcant difference between the serum concentrations of vitamin A and the severity of NRDS were ob-served (P>0.05).ConclusionsThe prevalence of NRDS for those preterm infants lacking of vitamin A was tended to increase. And the late preterm infants (34 w≤ GA <37 w) with vitamin A deifciency are prone to NRDS.
9. Determination methods for in vitro deposition of metered dose inhalers: Differences of three impactors
Journal of International Pharmaceutical Research 2016;43(5):961-970
Objective To analyze and compare fine particle fraction (FPF) and particle size distribution (PSD) measured by twin-stage impactor(TSI), Andersen cascade impactor (ACI) and next generation pharmaceutical impactor(NGI). Methods Selfmade metered dose inhaler(MDI) of fluticasone propionate was selected as the model drug, and the FPF and PSD were determined by TSI, ACI and NGI. Results The device of TSI was simple, and fine particle drug dose with less than 6.4 micrometer aerodynamic diameter size was acquired quickly, and the recovery rate was relatively high under the good seal, but aerodynamic diameter distribution was not obtained. In contrast, both the aerodynamic diameter and particle size distribution were obtained with ACI and NGI. Different from ACI, for NGI it was not necessary to wash the sieves, although NGI is heavy. So, the operation of NGI is simpler. Conclusion NGI can be chosen as the priority for the determination of the aerodynamics related parameters.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of imaging diagnisis of congenital pulmonary agenesis and hypoplasia in children.Methods:The 13 cases of congenital pulmonary agenesis and hypoplasia were veritfied by bronchcscopy and operation or pathology the characteristics of the X-ray,CT and bronchography were analysed.Results:the X-ray features included:(1)capacity decreased and density increased of diseased lung;(2)small hilar pulmonis;(3)mediastinum shifted to the affected side.Conclusion:Radiography is a good procedure in diagnosis of the most cases of congenital pulmonary agenesis and hypoplasia.
