Objective To evaluate the application value of the micro movement sensitive mattress sleep monitoring system(MSMSMS) in the diagnosis of children with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS).Methods One hundred and twenty-nine children aged from 3 to 14 years who visited the sleep center of Beijing Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from June 2013 to June 2015 due to sleep snoring were enrolled.Children with acute respiratory infection,cranial facial abnormalities,chronic lung diseases and neuromuscular diseases were excluded.According to the criteria,36 children were diagnosed as OSAS with average age of (7.3 ± 2.5) years,including 28 males and 8 females.Ninety-three non-OSAS children were recruited with average age of (6.3 ± 2.3) years,including 61 males and 32 females.Subjects were monitored with polysomnography(PSG) and MSMSMS simultaneously.Apnea/hypopnea index (AHI) > 5 or obstructive apnea index (OAI) > 1 were used to define whether OSAS existed.The consistency between MSMSMS and PSG in the diagnosis of OSAS and the determination of sleep efficiency were compared.Results The Kappa consistency coefficient of MSMSMS and PSG in the diagnosis of OSAS was 0.70(95% CI:0.57-0.84),Z =7.99,P < 0.000 1,which indicated the consistency between PSG and MSMSMS was good.The consistency of sleep efficiency of MSMSMS and PSG were compared.Bland-Altman results showed that there were 3% (5/129 cases)points out of 95% consistency bound and the interclass correlation coefficient (ICC) was 0.69 which indicated the consistency of 2 methods was good in determination of sleep efficiency.MSMSMS was able to detect respiratory event that was associated with sub-cortical arousals with no electroencephalogram arousal or blood oxygen reduction.Conclusions There is an adequate consistency between MSMSMS and PSG in the diagnosis of children with OSAS and determination of sleep efficiency.The MSMSMS has an advantage in detection of sub-cortical arousals and respiratory event.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Chushizhiyang ointment for the treatment of mild atopic dermatitis in infants.Methods A multicenter,randomized,open,active-controlled clinical trial was conducted.A total of 204 infants with atopic dermatitis were enrolled and randomly divided into 2 groups to be topically treated with Chushizhiyang ointment (test group,n =103) and hydrocortisone butyrate cream (control group,n =101),respectively,for 2 weeks.The improvement of eczema area and severity index (EASI) scores and quality of life was evaluated at 7 days and 14 days after the treatment,so was the incidence of adverse events and adverse reactions.Results Ninety-eight infants in the test group and 101 in the control group were included in the full analysis set,which revealed that the disease severity significantly decreased after the treatment in both groups.The EASI scores at the baseline and on days 7 and 14 were 2.47 ± 4.04,0.92 ± 1.25 and 0.39 ± 1.04 respectively in the test group,as well as 2.13 ± 2.01,0.85 ± 1.58 and 0.45 ± 1.65 respectively in the control group.Furthermore,the test group and control group both showed that EASI scores on days 7 and 14 significantly decreased compared with those at the baseline (the test group:T =-1 666,-1 793,respectively,both P < 0.001;the control group:T =-1 951,-1 941,respectively,both P < 0.001).No significant differences in EASI scores at the baseline or on days 7 and 14 were observed between the test group and control group (all P > 0.05).The response rates in the test group and control group were 47.96% (47/98) and 55.44% (56/101) respectively on day 7,as well as 79.59% (78/98) and 84.16% (85/101) respectively on day 14,and there were also no significant differences between the two groups (both P > 0.05).The adverse reactions mainly manifested as erythema,itching and scaling in the test group,as well as hypopigmentation,telangiectasia,scaling and hyperpigmentation in the control group.No significant difference in the incidence of adverse events was found between the test group (2.9%,3/103) and control group (6.9%,7/101).Conclusion Chushizhiyang ointment shows definite efficacy for mild atopic dermatitis in infants with good safety and tolerability,and can be a teatment option for mild atopic dermatitis in infants.

Objective To explore the relationship between the fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGFR2) gene polymorphism (rs 2981582 ,rs 1219648 ,rs 2420946) and the breast cancer risk in Tibetan population ,Qinghai province .Methods This is a case con‐trol study .Peripheral blood samples from 210 breast cancer patients and 230 healthy women in Qinghai area were collected .DNA samples were extracted from peripheral blood cells .FGFR2 gene polymorphism (rs 2981582 ,rs 1219648 ,rs 2420946) were typed by Taqman‐MGB probe based on PCR and DNA sequencing ,then analyzed its correlation with breast cancer in Tibetan population , Qinghai province .Results The genotype frequencies of rs 2981582 CC ,CT and TT were 40 .48% ,39 .05% and 20 .47% among the breast cancer patients while 36 .09% ,48 .69% and 15 .22% among the controls .The genotype frequencies of rs 1219648 GG ,AG and AA were 24 .76% ,26 .19 % and 49 .05% among the patients while 23 .91% ,47 .39% and 28 .70% among the controls .The genotype frequencies of rs 2420946 CC ,CT and TT were 29 .05% ,45 .24% and 25 .71% among the patients while 30 .87% , 51 .74% and 17 .39% among the controls .The genotype frequencies of all genetic loci had no significant difference between rs 2981582 and rs 2420946 (P>0 .05) .But the genotype frequencies of rs 1219648 AA have statistical sense (P< 0 .05) ,compared with GG ,the incidence of breast cancer was remarkably increased with AA [OR=1 .65 ,95% CI= (1 .01 ,2 .69)] .Conclusion This study shows that FGFR2 rs1219648 AA is related to breast cancer risk among Tibetan population .

Objective To evaluate the clinical application of pulmonary high-resolution CT (HRCT) and radionuclide pulmonary V/Q scan in pediatric patients with bronchiolitis obliterans (BO).Methods From February 2005 to April 2011,30 BO pediatric patients (18 males,12 females,age range:7 months-14 years) in Beijing Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University were recruited for pulmonary HRCT and radionuclide pulmonary V/Q scan.Kappa test was used to describe the consistency between "Mosaic perfusion pattern" in pulmonary HRCT and radionuclide pulmonary ventilation abnormalities.Results "Mosaic perfusion patterns" in pulmonary HRCT were showed in 30 cases (100%).Ventilation defects were found in 27 cases (90.0%) and perfusion defects in 25 cases (83.3%).The Kappa value between "Mosaic perfusion pattern" in pulmonary HRCT and pulmonary ventilation defects was 0.201 (0.1340.268),which was slightly higher than that between "Mosaic perfusion pattern" in pulmonary HRCT and pulmonary perfusion defects (0.147 (0.061-0.233)),but there was no statistical difference.Conclusions " Mosaic perfusion pattern" in pulmonary HRCT cannot distinguish between pulmonary ventilation and perfusion abnormalities.V/Q scan could be a useful tool for BO.
