Objective To evaluate the effects of continuous intra-tracheal gas insufflation (TGI) during mechanical ventilation for protecting the juvenile piglets with acute lung injury (ALI) induced by endotoxin. Method Twelve healthy juvenile piglets were anesthetized and mechanically ventilated at 2 cmH2O PEEP with 10 cmH2O peak inspiration pressure. The piglets were challenged with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and randomly (random number) assigned to two groups (n = 6 each): (1) piglets treated with mechanical ventilation alone (group MV) and (2) piglets treated with TGI by continuous airway flow of 2 L/min (group TGI). FiO2 was set at 0.4 to avoid oxygen toxicity, and the piglets were continuously monitored with an oxygen analyzer. Results Tidal volume, ventilation efficacy index and mean airway pressure were significantly improved in piglets of TGI group (P < 0.01 or P < 0.05). Four hours after ALI, pH decreased to below 7.20 in piglets of MV group, and was higher in piglets of TGI group (P < 0.01). Similarly, PaCO2 was stable and was significantly lower in piglets of TGI group than that in piglets of MV group (P < 0.01). PaO2 and PaO2/FiO2 increased in piglets of TGI group (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in heart rate, respiraaatory rate, mean arterial pressure, central venous pressure, dynamic lung compliance and mean resistance of airway between two groups. Lung histopathological changes showed severe inflammation,and intra-alveolar hemorrhage and interstitial patchy hemorrhage were ameliorated and the lungs were more homogenously expanded in piglets of TGI group. Conclusions Continuous TGI during MV can significantly improve gas exchange and ventilation efficacy, and may provide a better treatment for acute lung injury.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of Shenfukang capsules on clinical efficacy and renal function indexes of patients with renal insufficiency. METHODS:Totally 100 inpatients with renal insufficiency treated by Shenfukang cap-sules in the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University during Feb. to Mar. 2015 were analyzed retrospectively in respects of general information of patients,therapy plan,renal function indexs before and after treatment and clinical effica-cy. The relationship of clinical efficacy with age and duration was also analyzed. RESULTS:There were 33 cases of acute re-nal insufficiency and 67 cases of chronic renal insufficiency. The route of administration of Shenfukang capsules was oral ad-ministration(97 cases,97.00%),the main dosage was 6 capsule/d(36 cases,36.00%),and treatment duration were 0-<7 days(39 cases)and 7-<15 days(49 cases). After treatment,the average serum creatinine concentration was lower than be-fore treatment,while mean GFR and Ccr were higher than before treatment,with statistical significance(P<0.05). The total response rate was 72.00%,and response rate of patients with acute renal insufficiency was 87.88% and significantly higher than 64.18% of patients with chronic renal insufficiency,with statistical significance(P<0.05). Among patients with ≤60 years old,the total response rate of patients with acute renal insufficiency was significantly higher than that of patients with chronic renal insufficiency,with statistical significance(P<0.05);among patients elder than 60 years old,there was no statistical significance in therapeutic efficacy between acute renal insufficiency and chronic renal insufficiency(P>0.05);among patients with chronic renal insufficiency,the total response rate of patients elder than 60 years old was significantly better than that of patients with ≤60 years old,with statistical significance (P<0.05). With the extension of treatment duration,the total response rate of patients with acute renal insufficiency was on the rise,and that of patients with chron-ic renal insufficiency increased first and then decreased. No obvious ADR was found during treatment. CONCLUSIONS:Shenfu-kang capsules can improve renal function in patients with renal insufficiency,and has definite curative effect on acute and chronic renal insufficiency with good security. The clinical efficacy may be related to age and treatment course.
