Objective To analyze the incidence of complications during and after interventional therapy for common con-genital heart disease (CHD) in children. Methods From January 2011 to December 2013, interventional therapy of common congenital heart disease which include ventricular septal defect (VSD), atrial septal defect (ASD), patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) and pulmonary valve stenosis (PS) were performed in 2356 patients. Among them, 159 patients who developed complications during and post to interventional therapy were retrospectively analyzed. Results The overall complication rate was 6.75%(159/2356) (11.40% post VSD occlusion, 7.50% post ASD occlusion, 3.09% post PDA occlusion, 1.63% post percutaneous balloon pulmonary valvuloplasty (PBPV) ).The rate of arrhythmia was 4.41%(102/2356). The severe complication rate was 2.71%(64/2356) (3.62%post VSD occlusion, 2.21%post ASD occlusion, 2.53%post PDA occlusion, 1.63%post PBPV). The intraoperative severe complication rate was 0.51%(12/2356);the early severe complication rate was 1.99%(47/2356);the late severe complication rate was 0.21%(5/2356). Interventional therapy rate was 0.13%(3/2356); cardiovascular surgery rate was 0.64%(15/2356);conservative treatment rate was 1.95%(46/2356). The mortality rate was 0.08%(2/2356). Conclusions The complications and mortality rate of interventional therapy for CHD in children are relatively low, but cannot be ignored. The complication could be reduced by choosing proper indications, following the operational procedures and careful operative follow-up.

Objective To explore the effect of the interrupted abdominal aorta compression after cardiopulmonary resuscitation (IAAC-CPR)on cardiopulmonary cerebral resuscitation in a rabbit model of cardiac arrest (CA). Methods According to the random number table,10 New Zealand rabbits of both genders were equally divided into the chest compression-cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CC-CPR) group or IAAC-CPR group ,with 5 rabbits in each group. CA model was reproduced by injection of iced-potassium chloride into the jugular vein and obstruction of trachea to produce asphyxia. CA was maintained for 3 minutes before cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). CC-CPR was performed with assisted ventilation+chest compression,while IAAC-CPR was performed by the way of assisted ventilation + chest compressions + compressions on abdominal aorta. The hemodynamics and cerebral cortex blood flow were observed during resuscitation. Time of return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC),24-hour survival rates,and scores of neurological function,and situation of abdominal organs were recorded. Results At 30, 60,90 and 120 seconds after CPR,the cerebral blood flow (CBF,PU value)and mean arterial pressure(MAP, mmHg,1 mmHg=0.133 kPa)of IAAC-CPR group were significantly higher than those of CC-CPR group(CBF 30 seconds:16.1±6.0 vs. 7.8±2.2,60 seconds:91.6±11.8 vs. 57.3±23.2,90 seconds:259.9±74.9 vs. 163.6± 50.3,120 seconds:301.5 ±60.5 vs. 208.4 ±23.8;MAP 30 seconds:46.4 ±9.4 vs. 31.4 ±8.7,60 seconds:55.8 ± 13.8 vs. 34.0±11.5,90 seconds:61.2±11.5 vs. 38.2±10.1,120 seconds:63.6±11.8 vs. 40.2±10.2,all P<0.05). Compared with CC-CPR group,in IAAC - CPR group,the time necessary for ROSC was obviously shortened (seconds:182.0 ±59.0 vs. 312.6 ±86.6,t=2.787,P=0.024),24-hour nerve function score was significantly lowered(2.4±1.7 vs. 4.6±0.6,t=2.974,P=0.023). The successful recovery rate(80.0%vs. 60.0%,χ2=0.000, P =1.000)and 24-hour survival rate (80.0% vs. 40.0%,χ2=0.417,P =0.519)were significantly increased,but without statistical significance. No liver damage was found at 24 hours after ROSC. Conclusion In the early recovery of CA in rabbit,IAAC-CPR can result in better cerebral blood flow perfusion as compared with CC-CPR,and it significantly reduced damage to the nervous system function without producing abdominal organ damage.

Objective:To construct a new reporter mycobacteriophage, ΦFN, based on a nanoluciferase (Nluc) reporter system, and to analyze its ability to detect drug resistance in Mycobacterium tuberculosis ( Mtb). Methods:A Nluc reporter system controlled by P furAma promoter was constructed and integrated into Mycobacterium smegmatis ( Msm) genome to assess its reporting ability in mycobacteria. Then the P furAma- nluc reporter system was integrated into TM4 mycobacteriophage genome to construct a new phage termed ΦFN. A rapid procedure for detecting drug resistance in mycobacteria using ΦFN was established by adjusting conditions such as drug exposure time and time of infection. The susceptibility of 52 clinical isolates of Mtb with known drug resistance to three first-line anti-tuberculosis drugs were tested in 96-well plates. Results:The recombinant Msm mc 2155 expressing P furAma- nluc repoerter system could generate luminescence signal at a low limit of 100 colony-forming unit (CFU), which was lower than the previously reported nluc system controlled by Pleft promoter. The detection limit of ΦFN for mycobacteria reached 100 CFU within 24 h by luminescent microplate reader. After 48 h of antibiotic exposure and 24 h of phage incubation, no luminescence signal could be detected when susceptible strains were below 10 5 CFU, which could effectively distinguish susceptible strains and rapidly detect drug resistance. The drug susceptibility of 52 clinical isolates of Mtb to rifampin, isoniazid and streptomycin was tested using ΦFN, and the accuracy was 51/52, 48/52 and 49/52, respectively, by using the conventional drug susceptibility test, Lwenstein-Jensen culture medium assay, as reference. Conclusions:The new recombinant luminescent reporter phage, ΦFN, showed high accuracy in detecting the drug susceptibility of Mtb to rifampicin, isoniazid and streptomycin and it only took three days. It is expected to be a new simple assay for the rapid detection of drug susceptibility of Mtb.

Objective:To observe the clinical effect of Senling Baizhu san (SLBZS) on patients with sarcopenia.Methods:Eighty patients with spleen-stomach weakness sarcopenia admitted to the department of geriatrics of Hangzhou Third People's Hospital from January 2018 to March 2020 were enrolled. The patients were divided into control group and observation group by random number table method, 40 cases in each group. All patients were treated with conventional Western medicine, and the observation group was treated with SLBZS 100 mL, twice a day, on the basis of conventional Western medicine. The course of the treatments was 12 weeks. Grip strength and walking speed were recorded before and after treatment, and appendicular skeletal mass index (ASMI) was calculated. The serum levels of silence infor-mation regulator 1 (SIRT1), growth differentiation factor-8 (GDF-8) and insulin-like rowth factor-1 (IGF-1) were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The mRNA expression of AMP-activated protein kinase-α (AMPK-α) in serum was detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR).Results:Compared with before treatment, grip strength, ASMI, IGF-1, SIRT1 and AMPK-α mRNA in both groups were significantly increased after treatment, while GDF-8 was significantly decreased. The changes of above indexes in the observation group were more significant than those in the control group after treatment [grip strength (kg): 20.00 (15.50, 21.00) vs. 18.20 (14.93, 19.50), ASMI (kg/m 2): 5.80 (5.25, 6.00) vs. 5.30 (5.20, 5.50), IGF-1 (μg/L): 246.00 (229.00, 259.50) vs. 207.00 (187.00, 233.00), SIRT1 (ng/L): 649.2±38.3 vs. 624.6±38.6, AMPK-α mRNA (2 -ΔΔCt): 0.30±0.03 vs. 0.27±0.03, GDF-8 (μg/L): 13.50 (12.00, 17.80) vs. 15.60 (14.08, 19.98), all P < 0.05]. There was no significant difference in walking speed between the two groups before and after treatment [0.56 (0.53, 0.62) m/s and 0.58 (0.55, 0.62) m/s in the control group before and after treatment, 0.58 (0.54, 0.64) m/s and 0.60 (0.56, 0.65) m/s in the observation group before and after treatment, both P > 0.05]. Spearman correlation analysis showed that IGF-1 was positively correlated with SIRT1 ( r = 0.341, P = 0.002), IGF-1 was positively correlated with walking speed ( r = 0.250, P = 0.026), and ASMI was positively correlated with grip strength ( r = 0.367, P = 0.001). Conclusion:On the basis of conventional Western medicine, SLBZS has a remarkable effect on patients with sarcopenia of spleen-stomach weakness, which can provide a new idea of combining traditional Chinese and Western medicine for the treatment of sarcopenia.
