1.Advances of the relationship of asthma and store-operated calcium
International Journal of Pediatrics 2013;(3):234-236
As one of the chronic diseases,asthma,plays a serious impact on human daily life.Asthma in children has showed an increasing trend in recent years,but the mechanisms of asthma are not yet clear.Studies have found that store-operated calcium entry(SOCE) plays an important role in the physiological activity of the body.The enhanced SOCE activity can promote cell growth,proliferation,and migration of a variety of cell types.SOCE important molecules STIM1 and ORAI1 may be involved in the asthmatic airway occurrence of hyperresponsiveness and airway remodeling,and closely to the asthmatic development.
2.Effection of lung fluid clearance disturbance in late preterm infants with respiratory distress syndrome
International Journal of Pediatrics 2013;(3):217-219
In recent studies,it has been demonstrated that the clinical efficacy of surfactant is poor for late protein infants.Besides,this kind of infants have not infection or other risk factors that may lead to respiratory distress syndrome(RDS).Thus,it is speculated that the pathogenesis of RDS of late preterm infants is different from preterm infants.New researches show that,as the key point of Lung fluid transport via Epithelium,α-ENaC plays an important role in the pathogenesis of RDS of late preterm infants through the inhibition of lung fluid clearance and activity of surfactant.This review highlights the most important mechanisms of Lung fluid absorption barrier in RDS of late preterm infants.
3.Fasting blood glucose and prognosis of patients surviving over 1 year after renal transplantation
Chinese Journal of Tissue Engineering Research 2015;(24):3924-3928
BACKGROUND:Diabetes mel itus after kidney transplantation is an important metabolic complication of the transplanted organ, and seriously affects the quality of life and long-term survival rate of patients, which is a risk factor for renal al ograft dysfunction and cardiovascular disease. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the changes in fasting blood glucose and prognosis of patients who had survived more than 1 year after renal transplantation. METHODS:Total y 42 patients undergoing renal transplantation admitted at Xiantao First People’s Hospital from January 2003 to January 2013, including 7 cases of preoperative diabetes, 11 cases of impaired fasting glucose and 24 cases of normal fasting blood glucose. Fasting blood glucose levels were detected at 1, 7, 14 days and 1, 3, 6, 12 months after renal transplantation, and the survival conditions were also compared among different groups. Cox proportional hazard model was used to analyze influential factors of survival in patients undergoing renal transplantation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The fasting blood glucose levels in the diabetes mel itus group were significantly higher than those in the impaired fasting glucose group and normal fasting blood glucose group before and after renal transplantation (P<0.05). The fasting blood glucose levels were increased in al the groups at 1 day after transplantation (P<0.05), and stabilized at 3 months after transplantation. The survival rate was significantly higher in the normal fasting blood glucose group than in the diabetes mel itus and impaired fasting glucose groups after renal transplantation (P<0.05). Cox proportional hazard model analysis showed that preoperative fasting blood glucose, age, postoperative tumor and infection were the independent risk factors for death in patients undergoing renal transplantation, among which, postoperative tumor led to the highest death risk ratio that was 2.376. Taken together, preoperative diabetes mel itus has some impacts on renal recipients who survive more than 1 year fol owing transplantation, but postoperative diabetes mel itus had no influence on the survival rate of the patients.

China Pharmacy 2015;(30):4205-4207
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the characteristics and rules of leukocytopenia induced by essential antipsychotic medi-cines in psychotic in our hospital,and provide reference for the clinical treatment. METHODS:1 345 psychotics received essential antipsychotic medicines from Nov. 2012 to Nov. 2014 in our hospital were collected,and retrospective analysis was adopted to sta-tistically analyze the age,sex and the drug type,dose and treatment time that caused leukocytopenia,symptom duration,white blood cell(WBC)count,clinical manifestation and prognosis. RESULTS:In the 1 345 patients,there were 205 patients with WBC sustained reduction in the process of medication,accounting for 15.24%. The incidence rate of leukocytopenia in patients older than 60 years old reached up to 54.15%;57 patients with leukocytopenia was induced by combination medication,accounting for 20.14% in the total cases of combination medication,and it was significantly higher than the incidence rate of single medication (13.93%),the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05);incidence rate of leukocytopenia induced by the first generation of antipsychotic medicines was 63.36%,which was significantly higher than the second generation(36.64%),the difference was sta-tistically significant(P<0.05);there were 113 patients with the WBC count of 3.0×109-3.9×109 L-1,accounting for 54.63%,com-pared with other WBC count groups,there were significant differences(P<0.05);most of the patients had no discomfort and obvi-ous clinical symptoms,and all patients were improved or recovered after symptomatic treatment. CONCLUSIONS:The incidence rate of antipsychotic in elderly patients with essential antipsychotic medicines is relatively high,and the incidence of antipsychotic is more likely to be caused by combination medication and the first generation antipsychotic medicines. Although leukocytopenia can be cured,it may increase the risk of infection,so blood routine should be regularly checked and paid great attention during treatment.
