OBJECTIVETo establish a HPLC-DAD method for determining concentrations of betulic acid and phenol red in intestinal circulation liquid, and probe into the absorption kinetic characteristics of betulic acid at different intestine segments in rats and the effect of different drug concentrations on absorption.
METHODThe rat intestinal absorption model was established to detect the impact of absorption site, drug concentration and pH value on drug absorption.
RESULTWithin the range from 75-125 mg x L(-1), the absorption rate and the quality concentration of betulic acid had a linear relation, with Ka value keeping unchanged. The absorption rate for each intestinal segment showed no remarkable difference, with Ka values in duodenum, jejunum, ileum and colon being (0.151 +/- 0.0049), (0.159 +/- 0.0056), (0.156 +/- 6.0083), (0.149 +/- 0.0041) h(-1), respectively.
CONCLUSIONBetulic acid is proved to be well absorbed in intestines marked by no specific absorption site in the intestine. The absorption mechanism of the drug conforms to passive transport mechanism and first-order kinetics. The bioavailability of betulic acid preparation can be increased by enhancing the dissolution rate and the solubility.

OBJECTIVE:
To observe the effects of probiotics supplementation on the natural killer T cell (NKT cell) and inflammatory factors in children with sepsis and its protective effect on long-term lung function.
METHODS:
A total of 100 children with sepsis admitted to the department of pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) of Henan Provincial People's Hospital from March 2021 to May 2022 were selected as the research objects. The children were randomly divided into placebo group and probiotic group, 50 cases in each group. In addition to the conventional treatment, the probiotic group was given oral or nasal administration of 0.5 g probiotics, three times a day for 30 days, and the placebo group received oral placebo. 40 healthy children were selected as the healthy control group. The levels of interleukins (IL-4, IL-10), interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and immunoglobulin E (IgE), percentages of NKT cell in blood and induced sputum, lung function of the two groups of children with sepsis were measured before treatment, 7 days after treatment, and during follow-up. All these data were compared with those of healthy children. Kaplan-Meier analysis was used to compare the incidence of cough varied cough (CVA) between the two septic groups. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to explore the influence of various factors on the proportion of NKT cells in induced sputum.
RESULTS:
In the placebo group, 2 cases died and 4 cases were lost to follow-up. In the probiotics group, 3 cases died and 5 cases were lost to follow-up. All the inflammatory factors of two groups decreased slowly after 7 day after treatment. There was no significance in the parameters of the two groups, but the levels of probiotic group declined more evidently. During the follow-up, a further decrease of inflammatory factors in probiotic group could be found, the levels of IL-4 and IL-10 were significantly different from those in the placebo group [IL-4 (ng/L): 20.3±9.3 vs. 27.6±11.9, IL-10 (ng/L): 23.1±6.8 vs. 14.4±4.4, both P < 0.05], with a significant decrease in IgE level (μg/L: 53.0±15.6 vs. 64.2±16.9, P < 0.05]. The results of flow cytometry showed that the percentage of NKT cell in peripheral blood in two septic groups decreased gradually, and the proportion of peripheral blood NKT cells in the probiotics group was significantly lower than that in the placebo group after 7 days of treatment [(4.2±0.9)% vs. (5.3±1.2)%, P < 0.05]. In the follow-up, the level of NKT cell in peripheral blood and induced sputum in probiotic group were lower than the placebo group [peripheral blood: (0.024±0.009)% vs. (0.029±0.008)%, induced sputum: (0.025±0.008)% vs. (0.035±0.01)%, both P < 0.05], which were similar to those in the healthy control group. Meanwhile, the percentage of predicted peak expiratory (PEF%) and ratio of forced expiratory volume in one second/forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC) of probiotic group were higher than those in the placebo group [PEF%: (91.3±4.8)% vs. (85.8±8.6)%, FEV1/FVC ratio: (91.8±4.7)% vs. (87.2±7.4)%, both P < 0.05]. Although there was no significance in the incidence of CVA between two septic groups according to the Kaplan-Meier curve analysis, multiple linear regression analysis showed mechanical ventilation and allergic history were the risk factors for the increase of NKT cells [β values were 0.584, 0.601, 95% confidence interval (95%CI) were 0.069 to 1.099, 0.011 to 1.192, P = 0.027, 0.046], and probiotics was an independent protective factor for the relieve of increase in NKT cells (β value was -0.984,95%CI was -1.378 to -0.591, P = 0.001).
CONCLUSIONS
Application of probiotics to septic children early could promote the recovery of NKT cell and inflammatory factors, and alleviate the lung function injury induced by them during follow-up, which is helpful to improve the long-term prognosis of the patients.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of washing red cell suspension before transfusion in the prevention of hyperkalemia in children undergoing scoliosis orthomorphia.Methods:Thirty-two children who had underwent scoliosis orthomorphia from January 2018 to December 2019 in Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital, the Affiliated Hospital of Nanjing University, were selected. The children were divided into experiment group and control group by random digits table method with 16 cases each. In experiment group, the red cell suspension was washed by cell-saver before transfusion; in control group, the red cell suspension was infused routinely. Potassium concentration before operation, before blood transfusion, after blood transfusion and after operation was detected. The operation time, autologous blood transfusion, urine output, bleeding volume, allogeneic blood transfusion volume, intake and output, intraoperative blood potassium>5.0 mmol/L and blood transfusion related adverse reactions were recorded.Results:There were no statistical differences in operation time, autologous blood transfusion, urine output, bleeding volume, allogeneic blood transfusion volume, intake and output between 2 groups ( P>0.05). There was no statistical difference in blood potassium before operation and before blood transfusion between 2 groups ( P>0.05). In control group, the blood potassium after blood transfusion and after operation was significantly higher than that before blood transfusion: (4.5 ± 0.7) and (3.9 ± 0.3) mmol/L vs. (3.7 ± 0.2) mmol/L, and there was statistical difference ( P<0.05); in experiment group, the blood potassium after blood transfusion was significantly higher than before blood transfusion: (3.9 ± 0.2) mmol/L vs. (3.8 ± 0.2) mmol/L, and there was statistical difference ( P<0.05); the blood potassium after blood transfusion in experiment group was significantly lower than that in control group, and there was statistical difference ( P<0.01); there was no statistical difference in blood potassium postoperative between 2 groups ( P>0.05). In control group, 3 cases had transient blood potassium>5.0 mmol/L, and 1 case had blood potassium>6.7 mmol/L and cardiac arrest occurred during the operation; there was no blood potassium>5.0 mmol/L in experiment group. No blood transfusion related adverse reactions occurred in 2 groups. Conclusions:The method of washing red cell suspension before transfusion used in pediatric scoliosis orthomorphia can significantly reduce blood potassium after blood transfusion and effectively avoid the occurrence of hyperkalemia during the operation.
