Objective To explore the clinical features, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of pertussis in neonates. Methods Clinical data from 17 neonates with pertussis conifrmed by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of Bordetella pertussis, were retrospectively analyzed. Results In 17 neonates ( 8 males and 9 females), 2 neonates were premature. The age at onset was from 15 to 27 days. Thirteen cases had a history of close contact with coughing patients, 4 cases had nasal congestion and runny nose in the early stage, 5 cases had typical spastic cough, one case had cough with inspiratory“whoop”, 6 cases had lfushing in face after severe cough, 7 cases had severe cough with cyanosis, 2 cases had systemic cyanosis before hospitalized, 7 cases had regurgitation after cough, and 3 cases had fever. Fifteen cases had increased peripheral blood white blood cell count, ( 12 . 57-79 . 63 )× 109/L, with lymphocyte at 45 . 1% -75 . 2%. The PCR copy number of pertussis was 7 . 12 × 102-1 . 04 × 108/mL. Seventeen neonates were all treated with intravenous infusion of erythromycin, and all of them had a signiifcantly improvement, and no death case. Conclusions Neonates with a history of contact with coughing patients, paroxysmal cough and increased of peripheral blood leucocyte presented as lymphocyte increase, need to be alert to pertussis, and relative examination should be taken as early as possible.

Objective To investigate the effects of preoperative anxiety on the recovery of anesthesia and postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing elective laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy.Methods A total of 87 patients were enrolled who were undergoing elective laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy during July 2015 to June 2016.State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-1 was administered to the patients:patients with anxiety were included in the high-anxiety group (Group H) and patients witouth anxiety were included in the low-anxiety group (Group L) We observed the recovery of anesthesia and postoperative analgesia of the patients in two groups.Results In group H,the extubation time,the time for the Aldrete score to reach 9,were significantly longer;more agitation were found;and more fentanyl and parecoxib were needed.The difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).The age,BMI,operation time,anesthesia time of the patients in the two groups had no statistically significant differences (P＞0.05).Conclusion High anxiety has a negative effect on recovery from anesthesia and on postoperative pain control in patients undergoing elective laparoscopic ovarian cystectomy.

ObjectiveTo study the method and effect of individualized education on children with learning disability (LD).Methods30 children during 7-10 year old in a local boarding elementary school were chosen and guided individually as the following: sensory integration dysfunction drill, subtle motion drill, life skills drill, cognitive capability drill, behavior therapy, game therapy, music therapy and parents education. One and a half year later, the index of Sensory Integration Rating Scales and study marks were determined and compared with that of the normal children.ResultsThere is not significant difference between the LD children and the normal ones in the sensory integration of behavior and the learning achievement.ConclusionIndividualized education is a valid approach improving the potentiality of the LD children\'s physiology and psychology.

Objective To evaluate the effect of therapeutic touch on continuous positive airway pressure titration with obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) patients.Methods Fortyeight patients diagnosed with OSAHS were randomly allocated to the therapeutic group and the control group with 24 patients in each group.Therapeutic touch was used in the therapeutic group before CPAP titration and the control group received usual care.Anxiety was measured post intervention with State-trait Anxiety Inventory(SAI) and Visual Analogue Scale(VAS).CPAP therapy satisfaction was also evaluated by VAS.Results Compared with the control group,those patients with therapeutic touch showed significant reductions in SAI scores,better sleep quality,and higher satisfaction with CPAP treatment.Conclusions Results suggest that 15-min of therapeutic touch pre CPAP titration night significantly reduced anxiety and improved sleep quality in patients with OSAHS.

This paper mainly discussed how Chinese archaic ideologist realize emotionality. The contents include five aspects: emotionality is related to human nature and morality; Chinese pay more attention to cultivate himself according to morality, control his emotion and need, keep harmonious relationship with others, emotionality is in association with or- gans. The author thought that the meaning of Chinese emotionality is not only the emotional reaction of oneself, but in- volves comprehensive features of individual emotional response, dealing with matters and behaviors, and it is closely relat- ed to the cultivation of morality and human nature and relative to human nature and morality. Chinese opinion is different from western psychologists’thoughts.

Objective To analyze the characteristics of of organochlorine pesticides(OCPs) residues in the soil of the suburbs of Guangzhou.Methods In Baiyun,Conghua,Zengcheng,Panyu,Nansha,surface soil(0-20 cm) samples of vegetable fields,orchard and paddy soil were collected,soil profile(20-40cm,40-60cm) of Baiyun and Panyu were also collected,in Aug,2008.Gas chromatography-electron capture detector method(GC-ECD)was used to determine 17 kinds of organochlorine pesticides.Results The detection rate of 17 kinds of organochlorine pesticides was 90.59% in topsoil,the residue level was 4.19-39.89 ng/g,and the detection rate in profiles soil was 76.70 %,the residue level was 2.35-91.26 ng/g.OCPs residues were mainly HCHs and DDTs.Conclusion Detection rate of organochlorine pesticides is high in soil in the investigated soil and in the 20-40 cm profiles of Baiyun and Panyu,the level of OCPs exceeds the related standard limit,which may have adverse effects on soil environment.

Objective To study imaging features of neuronal tumors, and to evaluate the value of CT and MRI in diagnosing these tumors. Methods The CT and MRI studies in 10 patients with pathologically proved neuronal tumor were retrospectively reviewed. Results (1) CT showed a mixed attenuation cystic solid mass with calcification in 3 gangliogliomas; The mixed signal intensity on T 1 or T 2WI with heterogeneous contrast enhancement was common in ganglioglioma. (2)Three central neurocytomas had mixed signal intensity. (3)Three dysembryoplastic neuroepithelial tumor (DNT) had decreased signal intensity on T 1 weighted MR images and well demarcated increased signal intensity on T 2 weighted images without peritumoral edema and calcification. Prominent MR imaging features were a gyriform configuration on T 1 or T 2WI. The tumor contrast enhancement was not common; (4)A desmoplastic infantile ganglioglioma (DIG) was located in the frontal and parietal lobes, appearing as cystic tumors with a solid cortical component enhanced intensely. Conclusion Some neuronal tumors possess of specific imaging features, but diagnosis of the tumor with imaging modalities alone may be difficult. Therefore, combined clinical history could help to establish a correct diagnosis.

Objective To observe clinical application of the apparent Shikani laryngoscope in difficult airway, so as to provide reference for basic-level hospitals to deal with difficult airway. Methods 50 patients with difficult airway were randomly divided into 2 groups:Shikani laryngoscope group (S) that direct laryngoscope group (M) . After conventional induction, patients in two groups were given endotracheal intubation with different intubation tools by the same anesthesiologist, then the intubation time and the one-time success rate of intubation were compared between two groups. The hemodynamics of patients, were observed in two groups,the HR,SBP,DBP and SPO2 at before (T0),during (T1),2 min after (T2) and 5 min after intubation (T3) were recorded. The complications including gingival and oral mucosa bleeding, sore throat, hoarseness were also recorded in two groups.Results During the process of intubation, the hemodynamic changes of patients had statistically significant difference between T0 and T1, T2,T3 subgroups ( <0.05),T2 and T3 subgroups ( <0.05) . The intubation had less influence on hemodynamics of patients in group S than M group,but the SPO2 and T0 had no significant difference between two groups ( >0.05) .Comared with M group,the one-time success rate of intubation was higher,and the intubation time was shorter in S group and there were significant differences ( <0.05) . There was no significant difference in the intubation complications between the two groups ( > 0.05), and this may be associated with small sample cases. Conclusion Compared with ordinary laryngoscope, Shikani laryngoscope has incomparable advantages in handling difficult airway and is convenient to apply,so it is worth popularizing in basic-level hospitals.

Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is extensively used to increasing the in vivo and in vitro stability of liposomes. However, PEGylated liposomes also produce some negative effects with further research, such as low cellular uptake, poor "endosomal escape" of pH sensitive liposome (PSL) and accelerated blood clearance (ABC) phenomenon, and this situation is referred as the "PEG dilemma". "PEG dilemma" posed severe challenges for the targeted delivery of PEGylated liposomes-loaded anticancer drugs, effective intracellular release of PEGylated PSL-encapsulated gene and protein drugs, and repeated administration of PEGylated liposomes. Therefore, it is urgent to solve the "PEG dilemma". This review focused on the definition, classification of "PEG dilemma", and discussed several possible approaches to overcome "PEG dilemma".
