Objective To summarize our experience in the management of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) with deep hypothermic circulatory arrest (DHCA) during aortic arch surgery.Methods From March 2007 to May 2010,58 consecutive patients,including 24 urgent and 34 selective operations underwent aortic arch surgery.Thirty-nine hemiarch and 19 total aortic arch replacement operations were performed.CPB was established by perfusion through femoral artery (42 cases) and right subclavian artery (RSA) ( 16 cases),of which 4 cases were carried out with antegrade cerebral perfusion (ACP).Results The mean CPB time was ( 208.88 ± 136.45 ) min.The mean cerebral circulation arrest was ( 27.36 ± 11.50 ) min.Nasopharyngeal and rectal temperature were ( 16.01 ±2.67)℃ and ( 19.72 ±2.13)℃ respectively before DHCA was initiated.The mean times for cooling and rewarming were ( 50.91 ± 16.89) min and ( 88.97 ± 43.68 ) min.The mean time of intubation was (56.70 ± 45.19 ) h.The time in ICU was ( 5.68 ± 5.31 ) d,and the time of hospitalization was (30.11 ± 22.27 ) d.Acute renal failure,hypoxemia,and paraplegia occurred post-operatively in 4,19,and 2 patients,respectively.Four patients died post-operatively with a mortality of 6.90％.Compared with those received hemiarch replacement operation,the patients received total aortic arch replacement had statistically longer time of CPB([262.16 ±219.97]min vs [182.92 ±53.81] min,t =2.14,P ＜0.05),cerebral circulatory arrest ( [30.47 ± 15.86 ] win vs [25.85 ± 8.48 ] min,t =2.40,P ＜ 0.05 ),rewarming ( [110.00 ± 68.66 ] min vs [78.72 ± 17.31 ] min,t =2.69,P ＜ 0.05 ),and intubation ( [93.95 ± 131.89 ] h vs [38.08 ± 30.70 ] h,t =2.50,P ＜ 0.05 ).There was no significant difference in the times of these procedures between emergency surgery group and elective surgery group,between RSA and femoral artery cannulation groups.Conclusion It is crucial that the cooling and re-warming procedures during aortic arch surgery should be carried out slowly,gradually,and completely when DHCA was adopted alone.conclusion through right axillary artery or RSA was preferred for ACP,in order to accomplish the body circulation arrest at a relative high temperature,to shorten the CPB time,and to alleviate potential harmful effects of hypothermia.Meticulous management of CPB is one of the most important measures to improve the patients' outcome.

Objective To study the relationship between self-esteem and childhood abuse, life events among male violent adolescent. Methods According to the modified overt aggression scale, juvenile delinquents were divided into violent group (n = 128 )and nonviolent group (n = 118 ). All the participants were investigated by Self-Esteem Scale (SES), Childhood Trauma Questionnaire-28 Item Short Form (CTQ-SF) and Adolescent SelfRating Life Events (ASLEC) and conducted correlation and regression analysis. Results ①Violent group had lower self-esteem scores ( 22.73 ± 3.30 ) than the nonviolent group ( 23.81 ± 3.30, P ＜ 0.05 ). Violent group had higher scores in physical abuse, sexual abuse, total life events, interpersonal relationship, punishment, and other (8.30 ±4.07, 7.23 ±2.26, 54.48 ±18.60, 10.09 ±3.84, 14.43 ±5.87, 4.93 ±3.15, 9.93 ±3.64), compared to the nonviolent group (7.27 ± 3.27, 6.60 ± 2.09, 45.40 ± 18.45, 8.42 ± 4.13, 11.07 ± 5.75, 3.66 ±2.81, 7.84 ±3.66, P＜0. 05). ②The self-esteem was significantly negative correlated with the childhood abuse and life events( r= -0. 143 ～ -0. 358, P＜ 0.01 ) among violent male adolescents. ③The physical abuse and punishment had significant prediction function of 15.6% on self-esteem. Conclusions Violent adolescents have low self-esteem, which is closely related to childhood abuse and adolescent life events.

Objective To discuss the relationship between repetitive variable deceleration with a short interval (RDSI) in labor and neonatal acidosis.Methods One hundred and seventy-seven electronic fetal heart monitoring (EFM) patterns within one hour preceding delivery in term singleton pregnancies were collected in Peking University Third Hospital between February 2011 to October 2013.Continued EFM were recorded before delivery.Analysis was conducted on general information of both mothers and babies,including pregnant complications,duration of labor,cord and placental factors,nature of amniotic fluid,Apgar score and neonatal cord blood gas.RDSI was defined as that over 50％ intervals between two decelerations (the end of the last deceleration to the beginning of the next one) ≤ 60 s which appeared repetitevly in a period of 20 minutes.Independent sample t test,rank sum test,Chi-square test and Fisher's exact test were applied for statistics and receiver operating characteristic curve was obtained from the information of those with RDSI.Results Twenty-four of the 177 women with RDSI were assigned to the study group (24 cases,13.6％) and the rest 153 cases without RDSI to the control group.Background information of women in the two groups was comparable according to the maternal age,gestational weeks at delivery and duration of labor (all P ＞ 0.05).The occurrence of meconium stained amniotic fluid in the study group was higher than that of the control group [16.7％ (4/24) vs 5.2％ (7/153),x2=5.204,P=0.045],while the pH and base excess value of the neonatal blood gas in the study group were lower [7.20 (7.13-7.28) vs 7.29 (7.25-7.33),Z=-4.490;-6.10 (-4.67 to-9.62) mmol/L vs-3.20 (-4.90 to-1.55) mmol/L,Z=-5.044;P ≤ 0.01] resulting a higher rate of neonatal acidosis [50.0％(12/24) vs 7.8％ (12/153),x2=31.456,P ＜ 0.01].No significant difference was found in the incidence of neonatal asphyxia between the two groups.The area under the curve was 0.774 (95％CI:0.579-0.969).Conclusion RDSI in labor might indicate a high risk of neonatal acidosis.
