Objective:To observe the effects of veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO)combined with prone position ventilation (PPV) on oxygenation index (PaO 2/FiO 2), respiratory compliance (Crs) and vasoactive inotropic score (VIS) in severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients. Methods:Eighteen patients with severe ARDS requiring VV-ECMO support in Liuzhou People's Hospital from June 2018 to April 2020 were selected for retrospective analysis, and 8 patients among of these cases received PPV after VV-ECMO. The differences in PaO 2/FiO 2, VIS and Crs before and 1, 2 or 3 days after treatment were compared between VV-ECMO group and VV-ECMO combined with PPV group, as well as the differences in these indices before PPV and 2 hours after PPV daily in VV-ECMO combined with PPV group. The incidence of adverse events in two groups were also observed. Results:Before treatment, there was no significant difference in PaO 2/FiO 2, Crs between two groups. Over time, PaO 2/FiO 2 and Crs increased and VIS decreased in both groups. Compared with before treatment, there were statistically significant differences in PaO 2/FiO 2 and VIS from 1 day after treatment [PaO 2/FiO 2 (mmHg, 1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): VV-ECMO group was 197.75±39.80 vs. 75.57±7.44, VV-ECMO combined with PPV group was 255.20±31.92 vs. 68.24±11.64; VIS: VV-ECMO group was 5.51±3.72 vs. 10.20±7.10, VV-ECMO combined with PPV group was 6.73±3.32 vs. 14.50±2.48, all P < 0.05], up to 3 days after treatment [PaO 2/FiO 2 (mmHg): VV-ECMO group was 231.96±32.76 vs. 75.57±7.44, VV-ECMO combined with PPV group was 285.61±19.40 vs. 68.24±11.64; VIS: VV-ECMO group was 2.26±1.90 vs. 10.20±7.10, VV-ECMO combined with PPV group was 2.13±1.55 vs. 14.50±2.48, all P < 0.05], and the PaO 2/FiO 2 1 day and 3 days after treatment in VV-ECMO combined with PPV group were significantly higher than those in VV-ECMO group (mmHg: after 1 day of treatment was 255.20±31.92 vs. 197.75±39.80, after 3 days of treatment was 285.61±19.40 vs. 231.96±32.76, both P < 0.05). Before treatment, Crs of VV-ECMO combined with PPV group was significantly lower than that of VV-ECMO group (mL/cmH 2O: 17.91±0.82 vs. 20.54±1.26, P < 0.05). From 1 day after treatment, the Crs in VV-ECMO combined with PPV group was significantly higher than that before treatment (mL/cmH 2O: 21.20±1.50 vs. 17.91±0.82), the peak value was (24.93±2.18) mL/cmH 2O on 3 days after treatment, however, there was no significant difference between the two groups (all P > 0.05). In VV-ECMO combined with PPV group, compared with before PPV treatment, the PaO 2/FiO 2 and Crs of 2 hours after PPV treatment in 1, 2 and 3 days were significantly rose, and it reached the highest level in 3 days [PaO 2/FiO 2(mmHg): 285.61±19.40 vs. 189.91±28.34, Crs (mL/cmH 2O): 24.93±2.18 vs. 23.35±1.45, both P < 0.05]; the VIS was only increased in 2 hours after PPV treatment on the first day than before (6.73±3.32 vs. 6.38±3.22, P < 0.05). There were no related serious adverse events happened after PPV treatment. Conclusions:The combination of PPV during VV-ECMO could further increase PaO 2/FiO 2, improve hypoxemia and implement further protective lung ventilation to reduce the potential hazards during mechanical ventilation. In addition, no serious adverse events were observed in this study, suggesting PPV is safe during VV-ECMO.

Objective: To examine mental health problems among adolescents in Taiyuan City and its relationship to chronotype, so as to give a scientific basis for supporting mental health of middle school students. Methods: From October to November 2021, a total of 2 621 pupils were enrolled from three junior high schools and two senior high schools in Taiyuan by using a multi stage stratified cluster random sampling method to investigate demographic characteristics, mental health status, and chronotype. Chi squared test, Spearman correlation analysis and Logistic regression were used to analyze the relationship between sleep patterns and mental health problems in middle school students. Results: The proportion of morning, intermediate and evening types of middle school students sleep were 17.9%, 65.6%, and 16.4%, respectively. The overall detection rate of mental health problems was 13.8 %, which was statistically significant among middle school students in different grades, self perceived family economic status, the number of friends and sleep patterns ( χ 2=42.69, 29.15, 46.02, 93.99, P <0.05). After adjusting for grade, self perceived family economic status and the number of friends, Logistic regression analysis revealed that mental health problems were positively associated with evening type ( OR =2.84) and negatively associated with morning type ( OR =0.61)( P ＜0.05). Conclusion Chronotype is associated with mental health problems among middle school students, with a higher risk for evening type and a lower risk for morning type. Mental health of middle school students can be enhanced by changing their chronotype.

OBJECTIVE：To investigate the anti-inflammatory activity of 70％ ethanol extracts from Garcinia oblongifolia （GOEE）on LPS-induced RAW 264.7 cells and its potential molecular mechanism. METHODS ：GOEE was obtained after the fresh G. oblongifolia epicarp refluxed with 70％ ethanol. The contents of total phenol and total flavonoids were determined by Folin-Ciocalteau assay and UV spectrophotometer. MTT assay was used to detect the cytotoxicity of different doses of GOEE. The inflammatory model was induced in RAW 264.7 cells by lipopolysa- ccharide （LPS）. Using dexamethasone and N-acetyl-L-cysteine as positive control ，Griess assay and 2′，7′-dichloro- fluorescein assay were used to detect the contents of NO in cell culture medium and ROS in cells. The levels of TNF-α，IL-6，and IL- 1β in cell culture medium were measured by ELISA. The protein expression of p 65，p-p65，IκBα，p-IκBα，HO-1 in cells and NRF 2 in nucleus were determined by using Western blotting assay. RESULTS：The contents of total phenol and flavonoids in GOEE were （20.191±1.264）and（12.571±0.020）mg/g，respectively. At the concentration below 500 μ g/mL， GOEE had no significantly effect on survival rate of RAW 264.7 cells（P＞ 294043）0.05）. Compared with control group ，the contents of NO and ROS，the levels of TNF-α，IL-6 and IL- 1β，ratio of p-p 65 top65，ratio of p-IκBα to IκBα，protein expression of NRF 2 were increased significantly in LPS model group （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. Compared with LPS model group ，the contents of NO（except for GOEE 50 μg/mL group）and ROS ，the levels of TNF-α，IL-6 and IL- 1β，ratio of p-p 65 to p 65 and ratio of p-IκBα to IκBα were decreased significantly in GOEE groups and positive control groups ，while protein expression of HO- 1 and NRF 2 were increased significantly （P＜0.05 or P＜0.01）. CONCLUSIONS：GOEE attenuates LPS-induced macrophages inflammation injury by inhibiting the inflammatory response and the phosphorylation of NF-κB pathway，promoting NRF 2 protein transportation to the nucleus.
