Objective To develop the Chinese version of multidimensional measure for recurrent ab-dominal pain scale(MM-RAP) and test the reliability and validity of it. Methods The Chinese version of MM-RAP was translated and revised and 100 children with recurrent abdominal pain and their parents were surveyed by it. Then the reliability and validity of the scale was tested. Results The teat-retest reliability coefficient of MM-RAP was 0.86. The total Cronbach's coefficient α of the scale was 0.80. Cronbach's coef-ficient α of each dimensions was above 0.70. The results of correlation analysis showed that there was higher correlation between items and its belonged dimensions than that with other dimensions. The results of confir-matory factor analysis indicated the factor structure was similar with the theoretical construction of the in-strument. Conclusions The Chinese version of MM-RAP demonstrated good reliability and validity and was an effective assessment instrument for measuring recurrent abdominal pain of Chinese children.

Objective To investigate the influence of passive smoking during pregnancy on the ability of cognitive and behavior of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) children. Methods 92 ADHD children with passive smoking during pregnancy,99 cases without passive smoking and 100 cases normal children were selected. Their abilities of cognitive and behavioral were evaluated by intelligence test, Wisconsin card sorting test and Stroop test. Results The verbal intelligence quotient ( VIQ), performances intelligence quotient (PIQ) and the full intelligence quotient (FIQ) of ADHD children were significantly lower than normal children, especially for the ADHD children with passive smoking during pregnancy. Compared to the normal children,the ADHD children showed significant difference in the time of reading card A, B,C and reading errors of card B,C,especially for the ADHD children with passive smoking during pregnancy. Compared to the normal children, the ADHD children showed significantly more in the scores of responses errors, perseverant responses, perseverant errors, perseverant errors percentage and non-perseverant errors, and lower in conceptualization plane, especially for the ADHD children with passive smoking during pregnancy. Conclusion The defect of the ability of cognitive and behavior of attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder children were the worse for passive smoking during pregnancy.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of invasive arterial blood pressure (IBP) monitoring on the prognosis of patients with sepsis.Methods:Patients with sepsis from the MIMIC-Ⅳ database were collected and divided into IBP and non-invasive blood pressure monitoring (NIBP) groups according to whether IBP monitoring was performed. Baseline variables that were considered clinically relevant or showed a univariate relationship with the outcome were entered into a multivariate logistic regression model as covariates.Propensity score matching(PSM) and inverse probability of treatment weighing(IPTW) were used to adjust confounders to ensure the robustness of findings.Subgroup analysis were conducted to evaluate the effect of differences in IBP onset and duration on outcome.Results:The 28-day mortality is lower in IBP group compared with NIBP group( OR=0.54, 95% CI 0.46-0.62, P<0.001), the conclusion maintain robust after PSM and IPTW.Then we conducted a series of logistic regression regarding to different initial IBP time(<24 h,24 h-48 h,>48 h) and the initial IBP time within 24 h showed the same results compared to primary outcoms( OR=0.42, 95% CI: 0.36-0.49, P<0.001). IBP duration varied (≤1day, ≤2days, ≤3days, ≤4days, >4days) all showed a statistically significant association with decreased 28-day mortality in the IBP group. Conclusions:IBP is associated with decreased 28-day mortality in patients with sepsis, and the optimal time of IBP is within 24 hours.
