OBJECTIVE:To investigate the anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of mongolian medicine Cymbaria dahurica extract. METHODS:96 KM mice(or SD rats)were randomly divided into model group(water),positive control group(aspirin, 0.5 g/kg),C. dahurica ethanol extract (70% ethanol) low-dose,medium-dose and high-dose groups (0.325,0.650,1.300 g/kg, calculated by crude drug) and C. dahurica aqueous extract of the residue of alcohol extraction low-dose, medium-dose and high-dose groups(0.325,0.650,1.300 g/kg,calculated by crude drug). They were given relevant medicine intragastrically,once a day,for consecutive 7 d. The xylene-induced ear edema method was used to determine the degree of ear edema,and egg white-in-duced paw edema method was used to determine paw edema after inducing inflammation 1,2,4,6 h;anti-inflammatory activity of C. dahurica extract was investigated. 96 KM mice were grouped and given medicine with same method;the number of writhing within 20 min was determined by acetic acid writhing method. Another 64 KM mice were grouped with same method,with 8 mice in each group;except positive control group was given tramadol hydrochloride(0.5 g/kg)intragastrically,other groups were given relevant medicine with same method. Pain thresholds of mice were determined by hot-plate test before and after medication 30,45, 60,90 min,and analgesic effects of C. dahurica extract were investigated. RESULTS:Compared with model group,C. dahurica extract could obviously restrain the ear edema of mice and paw edema of rats 6 h after egg white-induced inflammation. Except paw edema of rats in C. dahurica aqueous extract of the residue of alcohol extraction high-dose group was decreased slightly,there was statistical significance among other groups (P<0.05 or P<0.01). C. dahurica extract decreased the number of writhing in mice within 20 min,and extended pain thresholds of mice 30,60,90 min after medication (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Both C. dahurica ethanol extract and aqueous extract of the residue of alcohol extraction posses certain anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects.

Objective To investigate the clinical parameters,risk factors,treatment and clinical outcomes of pneumocystis pneumonia(PCP) in children without human immunodeficiency virus(HIV). Methods Retrospective a-nalysis was made for the clinical features,risk factors,treatment and prognoses of the non-HIV infected severe PCP pa-tients hospitalized at Pediatric Intensive Care Unit( PICU) of Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Institute of Pedi-atrics. Results During April of 2010 to April of 2014,there were 10 cases of non-HIV infected severe PCP in PICU of Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Capital Institute of Pediatrics. All of the patients had predisposing diseases,in which 3 cases had connective tissue diseases,2 cases had acute leukemia,3 cases had severe pneumonia and 2 cases had con-genital immunodeficiency. The main clinical manifestations of those 10 patients were fever, cough, tachypnea and obvious dyspnea. All patients developed respiratory failure. The median value of Pediatric Critical Illness Score was 79. The median arterial oxygen pressure was 58 mmHg(1 mmHg=0. 133 kPa). The median oxygenation index was 103 mmHg. The median alveolo-arterial oxygen partial pressure difference was 43. 8 mmHg. The median CD4+T-lympho-cytes counts was 169 ×106/L. Eight patients on admission had mixed infection. Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) occurred in all of the patients,and 7 cases of them had multiple organ dysfunctions. All of the patients re-quired ventilation support. The median day for invasive mechanical ventilation days was 11 and the median day for non-invasive ventilation days was 6. The pneumothorax occurred in 5 patients. All patients received trimethoprim-Sulfame-thoxazole as initial therapy and Caspofungin treatment in combination in 7 cases of the patients. Six patients had nosoco-mial infection. The median time of PICU stay was 15. 5 days. Six patients survived and the mortality was 40%(4/10 cases) . Conclusions PCP is a kind of fatal diseases which occurred in patients with immunocompromised conditions and concurrent ARDS or multiple organ dysfunctions. Diagnostic suspicion and mechanical ventilation therapy with lung protective ventilation strategies may improve the clinical outcomes of non-HIV-infected PCP in children.
