Currently,the environment for establishing anesthesiologic undergraduate education no longer exists,and the side-effects of its narrow professional content are more and more apparent,so canceling undergraduate education of anesthesiology is becoming imperative.The education of anesthesia must be reformed.However,the direction of reform is not clear.Anesthesia long-term system education and Anesthesia and preoperative medical education are two optical reform directions with its own advantages and disadvantages.Comparing these two directions,the Anesthesia and preoperative medical education seems to be the better one.

Objective To study the expression of Toll-like receptor 4(TLR4) in peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMCs) and serum interleukin-6(IL-6) in wheezing children under 5 years of age.Methods A total of 224 wheezing children under 5 years of age were divided into API(asthma predictive index)-positive (n=116) and API-negative groups (n=108).Serum level of IL-6 and TLR4 expression on CD14+ monocytes were measured after wheezing was stable for one month.TLR4 expression on CD14+ monoeytes was quantified via flow-cytometry.Serum level of IL-6 was detected by ELISA.Results Serum level of IL-6 and TLR4 expression on CD14+ monocytes of API-positive group were higher than API-negative group [LR4(%):34.9±10.0 vs.30.2± 8.8;IL-6(ng/L):46.4±15.1 vs.40.5±13.6].There was a significant positive correlation between the expression of TLR4 and the content of serum IL-6 in two groups of wheezing children(P<0.05).Conclusion TLR4 may play a role in the pathogenesis of asthma through promoting the expression of IL-6.TLR4 may be a index to predicting asthma in wheezing children.

Objective To investigate the expression of Toll-like receptor 4 ( TLR4 ) and nuclear factor-κB ( NF-κB) in patients with critically severe hand, foot and mouth disease ( HFMD) and to evaluate the effects of esmolol intervention on those patients.Methods Fifty-two hospitalized children with critically severe HFMD in the Intensive Care Unit of Xuzhou Children′s Hospital were enrolled in the study from May 2014 to May 2015 and randomly divided into two groups, represented as group A and group B.Children in the group A were given routine treatment, while those in the group B were treated with esmolol in addition to the routine therapy.Thirty children with common HFMD were selected as disease control, and thirty healthy children were set up as normal control.Differences in the expression of TLR4, NF-κB, TNF-αand IL-6 among all children were comparatively analyzed.The levels of TLR4, NF-κB, TNF-αand IL-6 in children from groups A and B were detected after 24 hours, 72 hours and five days of treatment and the differences betweenthetwogroupswereanalyzed.Results (1)Comparedwiththechildrenfromdiseasecontroland normal control groups, those with critically severe HFMD showed significantly increased expression of TLR4, NF-κB, TNF-αand IL-6 (P<0.01).(2)No significant differences in the expression of TLR4, NF-κB, TNF-αand IL-6 were found between the two subgroups of children with critically severe HFMD before treat-ment (all P>0.05).The expression of TLR4, NF-κB, TNF-αand IL-6 in children from both subgroups were significantly decreased after receiving corresponding treatments for 24 hours, 72 hours and five days (all P<0.05).Compared with the children form group A, those from group B showed significantly decreased expression of NF-κB, TNF-αand IL-6 after 24 and 72 hours of corresponding treatments (all P<0.05).No significant difference in the expression of TLR4 was observed between the two subgroups after 24 and 72 hours of corresponding treatments (P>0.05).No significant differences in those observed indicators were found between the two subgroups after five days of treatments (all P>0.05).Conclusion The TLR4/NF-κB/proinflammatory factor pathway might play an important role in the development of critically severe HFMD.Treatment with esmolol could inhibit the expression of NF-κB, reduce the secretion of inflammatory factors and alleviate the inflammatory reaction during critically severe HFMD.

Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of Bcl-2/adenovirus E1B19kDa interacting protein 3 (BNIP3) in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with severe hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD). Methods Ninety children with HFMD were classified into three groups with 30 in each group:critical group (clinical stage 3), severe group (clinical stage 2) and common group (clinical stage 1, excluding encephalitis with CSF and other examinations). Another thirty healthy children were randomly selected as the control group. The levels of BNIP3 in serum and CSF were detected before and after treatment. Moreover, serum neuro-specific enolase ( NSE) and S100B protein were also measured to analyze their correlation with BNIP3. Receiver operating characteristic ( ROC) curve was used to evaluate the prediction efficiency of BNIP3 for the severity of HFMD. Results The levels of serum BNIP3, S100B protein and NSE in the critical group were higher than those in the other three groups ( P<0. 01). CSF BNIP3 level in the critical group were significantly higher than that in the common and severe groups (P<0. 01). Serum BNIP3, S100B protein and NSE were significantly higher in the severe group than in common and control groups (P<0. 01). CSF BNIP3 was significantly increased in the severe group as compared with that in the common group (P<0. 01). After treatment, the levels of BNIP3, S100B protein and NSE in serum and BNIP3 in CSF were decreased in both critical and severe groups (P<0. 01). The lev-els of BNIP3 in serum and CSF were positively correlated with the level of S100B protein and NSE ( P<0. 01). Serum BNIP3 had the highest Youden value at the cut-off value of 3. 015μg/L, with a sensitivity of 83. 33% and a specificity of 90. 00%, in the prediction of severe HFMD. CSF BNIP3 had the highest Youden value at the cut-off value of 1. 735 μg/L, with a sensitivity of 73. 33% and a specificity of 93.33%, in the prediction of severe HFMD. Conclusions BNIP3 is involved in the pathological process of brain injury in children with severe HFMD. Detection of BNIP3 helps evaluate the severity and prognosis of HFMD.
