Objective To establish a method for the preparation of long-circulating liposomes (LCL) containing etoposide and to observe its stability in rats plasma.Methods The etoposide-containing liposome was prepared by ethanol injection method. Polyethylene glycol-distearoyl phosphatidylethanolamine (PEG2000-DSPE) was used to modify the membrane of the liposome. Reversed-phase high pressure liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) was used to detect the concentration of the liposome,and dynamic release method was used to study its stability in mice plasma.Results The mean size of the LCL containing etoposide was (180?26) nm,and the mean concentration of etoposide was (4.78?0.22) mg/mL,with the entrapment efficiency being (88.71?8.2)%. The leakage ratio of the conventional liposome containing etoposide and LCL containing etoposide in mice plasma were (80.14?1.59)% and (46.72?2.61)%,respectively.Conclusion LCL containing etoposide with high entrapment efficiency and low leakage rate can be obtained by using ethanol injection method. Additionally,modification by PEG2000-DSPE could raise the stability of the liposome.

Objective To explore the application value of pulse indicator continuous cardiac output (PiCCO) monitoring in the fluid management of children with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).Methods Thirty-two children with ARDS admitted to Pediatric Intensive Care Unit(PICU) of Zhengzhou Children's Hospital,from April 2013 to April 2016,were divided into intervention group (15 cases) and control group (17 cases) by adopting random number table method.Fluid management of intervention group by PiCCO,control group by central venous pressure,the 2 groups' oxygenation index (OI),acute lung injury score,mechanical ventilation time and 28 days mortality were statistically compared.The categorical data were analyzed by using SPSS 11.0 software,and the t test was used for the measurement data.The categorical data and mortality comparison were analyzed by adopting x2 test.The difference was statistically significant at P ＜ 0.05.Results After 3 days of mechanical ventilation,the changes of OI in the intervention group were significantly higher than those in the control group [(175.0 ±-43.7) mmHg vs.(143.0 ± 42.8) mmHg (1 mmHg =0.133 kPa),t =2.090 0,P ＜ 0.05].The intervention group was significantly shorter than the control group [(10.45 ± 3.12) d vs.(12.63 ± 2.87) d,t =2.058 7,P ＜ 0.05].There was no significant difference between 2 groups in acute lung injury score,PICU length of stay and 28 days mortality (all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions PiCCO monitoring and guidance in the fluid management of pediatric ARDS can improve oxygenation after 3 days,reduce mechanical ventilation time,but can not significantly reduce the 28-day mortality.

Abstract: Objective　To analyze the treatment outcomes of elderly patients with pulmonary tuberculosis in Chongqing, so as to provide reference for the prevention and control strategies of the epidemic of elderly pulmonary tuberculosis. Methods　The data of tuberculosis cases aged ≥65 years in Chongqing from 2015 to 2020 were collected from the National Health Insurance Information Project Disease Prevention and Control Information system. Descriptive statistical methods were used to analyze the data. Results The registration rates of elderly active pulmonary tuberculosis patients and etiological positive patients were 110.95/10-5and 32.25/10-5 in 2015 and 84.06/10-5 and 57.29/10-5 in 2020. The annual decline rate of active tuberculosis registration was 5.40%, and the annual increase rate of pathogenic-positive tuberculosis registration was 12.18%. The registration rates of active tuberculosis patients and etiological positive patients in the whole population were 70.75/10-5 and 17.63/10-5 in 2015 and 50.34/10-5 and 29.14/10-5 in 2020. The annual decline rate of active tuberculosis registration was 6.58%, and the annual increase rate of pathogenic-positive tuberculosis registration was 10.57%. From 2015 to 2020, a total of 25 931 cases of elderly pulmonary tuberculosis were registered, of which 21 374 (82.43%) cases were successfully treated and 4 010 (15.80%) cases had unfavorable outcomes. The proportion of cured and death patients showed an increasing trend year by year (χ2trend=313.853, 100.502, P<0.01). From 2015 to 2020, the average annual successful treatment rate of elderly pulmonary tuberculosis in the whole city was 82.43%, with the lowest rate in southeast Chongqing (74.23%), followed by urban areas (81.99%). The success rate of elderly pulmonary tuberculosis treatment in the whole city, west Chongqing, northeast Chongqing and southeast Chongqing showed a downward trend year by year (χ2trend=230.199, 35.278, 108.076, 112.130, all P<0.01), with annual decline rates of 2.77%, 2.26%, 3.0% and 4.12%, respectively. Among the registered elderly patients, female, 65-<75 years old, Han nationality, newly diagnosed, no complications, and negative for etiology (χ2=15.234, 255.910, 146.842, 179.998, 25.575, 131.170, P<0.01) had higher success treatment rates. Conclusions The prevalence of pulmonary tuberculosis in the elderly population in Chongqing City is declining, but the positive registration rate of etiology is increasing annually, and the success rate of treatment is decreasing. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the systematic management, publicity and education of elderly patients (especially those in southeast Chongqing, male, positive patients and severe patients) to effectively control the epidemic of tuberculosis in the elderly.
