Chinese Pediatric Emergency Medicine 2010;17(5):456-458
Nitric oxide (NO) played an important role in the pathogenesis of many diseases. It selectively dilates the pulmonary vasculare, combats pulmonary hypertension associated with hypoxemia, improves oxygen. At the same time, it could relaxe bronchial smooth muscle, kill pathogens and have anti-inflammatory effect,etc. Inhaled nitric oxide has important significance in the treatment of respiratory diseases.

Objective To provide useful information for the diagnosis and differentiation through exploring the tumor with polyserositis as the initial symptom.Methods There was a case present with fever,poor spirit,abdominal distention and edema in Children's Hospital of Hebei Province.The characteristics and results of physical examination were summarized and discussed according to the condition evolution phases.The possible etiological factors were analyzed.The treatment was adjusted.Further physical examination was improved.The final diagnosis was tracked.Results After getting admitted to hospital,the patient received CT scan and ultrasound examination for many times.The results suggested the pericardial effusion,pleural effusion,peritoneal effusion and cardiac insufficiency.The child had made a slight improvement through treatment.However,he had hemiparesis.Cerebral infarction was demonstrated through magnetic resonance imaging(MRI),magnetic resonance angiography (MRA),magnetic resonance venography (MRV).Ultrasound showed that there was more pericardial effusion,aortic root solid low echo mass,pulmonary arterial wall stiffness,left and right pulmonary artery blood flow speed increased.Neck and chest enhanced CT showed mediastinal lesions.Pathology examination results suggested myeloid sarcoma after referral to superior hospital.Conclusions When children had an unexplained polyserositis,more comprehensive analysis were needed.The illness condition should be explained with Monism as far as possible.Repeated inspections would be necessary when the pathogenesis was not clear.Careful watch for the tumor should be kept.

The nutrition and food hygienic character of the degreased castor protein in Neimeng autonomous region were studied by chemical analysis and rat experiment. Using casein as reference protein and soy flour as comparable substance, the contents of major nutrients and composition of essential amino acids in the degreased castor cake and its protein efficiency ratio (PER) and other indicators related to nitrogen metabolism in the animal experiment were studied by the recommended method of AOAC. Some harmful substances in the samples were examined quantitatively. The results showed that the protein content, the PER, the true digestibility, the biological value, and NPU of the degreased castor cake were 35.80%, 1.75-1.76, 62.51%, 91.16 and 57.04 respectively. The blood indicators and pathological observation of tested rats were normal. The content of several harmful substances in the product was allowable. The essential amino acid composition of the degreased castor protein was similar to soy protein. So the detoxified degreased castor cake protein could be used in food or feed industry.

Objective To explore the effectiveness and safety of high frequency oscillatory ventilation(HFOV) in children with measles complicated with severe pneumonia and the acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS).Methods A total of 63 children with measles complicated with severe pneumonia and the ARDS were divided into conventional mechanical ventilation(CMV) group and HFOV group.The PaO2/ FiO2,oxygenation index (OI),HR and mean arterial pressure (MAP) before treatment and 12 h,24 h,48 h after treatment were detected.The rate of air leak and the motality in two groups were compared.The efficacy and safety of HFOV treatment were evaluated in children with measles complicated with pneumonia and severe ARDS.Results In HFOV group,the PaO2/FiO2 ratio was elevated and OI was decreased significantly after 12 h and maintained for at least 48 h.Compared with CMV group,OI of HFOV group improved more significantly,and the difference was statistically significant.The ventilation time in HFOV group was shorten than that in CMV group[(7.97 ±3.06) d vs.(11.03 ±3.60) d],but there was no statistical difference between two groups (P > 0.05).The heart rate after treatment 48 h was gradually returned to normal,and there was no statistical difference between the two groups.There were no significant changes in the MAP of two groups after treatment.There were no significant differences in the incidence of air leak between the CMV group and the HFOV group(24.2% vs.16.7%).The mortality rate of CMV group and HFOV group was respectively 45.5 % and 33.3 %,and there was no statistically significant difference.Conclusion HFOV was effective in oxygenation and seems to be safe for pediatric patients with measles complicated with severe pneumonia and the ARDS.Also it didn't influence the occurrence of complications.It has no adverse influence on hemodynamic parameters.Early intervention of HFOV is safe and effective for the children with measles complicated with severe pneumonia and ARDS.

Purpose Median arcuate ligament (MAL) compression is the most common reason for celiac artery stenosis or occlusion, celiac artery compression of asymptomatic MAL is often misdiagnosed. This study aims to evaluate the multi-slice spiral CT manifestations of the celiac artery compression of median arcuate ligament. Materials and Methods CT features of 26 patients with celiac artery compression of median arcuate ligament were retrospectively studied. Eleven cases were symptomatic and fifteen cases were asymptomatic. Results In 14 cases (53.8%), the location of compression was at the level of superior 1/3 of the L1 vertebral body. There was statistic difference in location of the origin of compression between the celiac artery narrowing group and the non-narrowing group (P<0.05). CT manifestations included: narrowing of the celiac artery were observed in 26 patients on sagittal reformatted images with hollow on the anterior wall; a characteristic hooked appearance was observed. Narrowed celiac artery on the transverse images was seen in 21 patients, and a soft-tissue band extending across the anterior aspect of artery in 12 of them. Poststenotic dilatation was revealed in 20 patients. Collateral circulation was seen in 8 patients. Conclusion Multi-slice spiral CT can be helpful in demonstrating the location of celiac artery compression of median arcuate ligament and tell the characteristic imaging features.

AIM: To explore the histocompatibility of pinealocyte microencapsules in vivo. METHODS: The pineal glands of neonatal rats were removed under operating microscope and pinealocytes were isolated through collagenase and trypsin digestion. Pinealocytes were cultured for one week in vitro and collected immediately after digesting was encapsulated in APA microencapsules. The cells and empty capsules were transplanted into abdominal cavity or intermuscular space respectively and retrieved at the 15th or 30th day after operation. Morphological observation, HE staining, cell counting, and HPLC technique were used to analyze the shape, proliferation and function, the degree of inflammation fibrosis of retrieved microencapsules. RESULTS: The retrieve rate of cell capsule from abdominal cavity was about 85 % . The retrieved capsules had integrated profile mostly although some were damaged. The amount of macrophages attached to capsule wall and the thickness of wall increased gradually following the period of transplantation. However, the retrieve rate, wall thickness had no difference between retrieved cell and empty capsules at the same time. Secretion ability of pinealocytes in capsule retrieved at 15th day after operation decreased rapidly and those retrieved at 30th day after operation lossed secretion function. CONCLUSION: APA microencapsules had histocompatibility relatively in vivo and protected pinealocytes in capsule from immunologic rejection of the host. The survival time was about 20 days. During this period cells in capsule maintained activity and MT secretion ability.
