Objective To investigate the composition of pathogens from cerebrospinal fluid culture in pediatric intensive care unit,and to explore the distribution of the pathogens,antibiotic resistance profile,infection source and prognosis.Methods The results of cerebrospinal fluid culture in pediatric intensive care unit from January 2012 to December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.Bacteria identification and antimicrobial susceptibility were assayed by Vitek Compat Ⅱ system from Bio Mrieux Company.Some bacterial strains were tested by disk diffusion method or E-test.Results A total of 982 cerebrospinal fluid were tested during research period,and 78 were positive with positive rate of 7.9%.A total of 81 strains of pathogens were isolated,there were 46 strains of gram negative bacteria (56.8%) and 35 strains of gram positive bacteria (43.2%).The top three bacteria were Acinetobacter baumannii(28.4%),coagulase negative Staphylococcus(19.8%),and Escherichia coli(13.6%).The resistance to antibiotics was quite different,manifesting muti-resistance or extensively drug resistance.Acinetobacter baumannii was the predominant specy of gram negative bacteria,which was highly resistant to meropenem and cephalosporins and highly sensitive to tigecycline.Coagulase negative Staphylococcus was the predominant specy of gram positive bacteria,which was highly resistant to cefazolin and ampicillin and highly sensitive to linezolid and vancomycin.Conclusion Gram negative bacteria are the main species of cerebrospinal fluid culture in pediatric intensive care unit.Acinetobacter baumannii is the major pathogen,which was highly resistant to meropenem and cephalosporins.

AIM:To investigate the role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the regulation of intracellular Ca2+induced by angiotensin II ( Ang II) in the primarily cultured medullary neurons .METHODS:Primarily cultured me-dullary neurons were prepared from 14-day-old embryos of Sprague-Dawley rats in the study .The identification of medullary neurons was assessed by double-labeling immunofluorescence .To explore the role of ROS , mainly the superoxide ( O2 ·-) , the O2 ·-generation was measured using the fluorogenic probe dihydroethidium ( DHE) .To determine intracellular free cal-cium concentration ( [ Ca2+] i ) , the neurons were loaded with the Ca 2+-specific dye Fura-2/AM.The cell viability after adding Ang II was also examined using CCK-8 assay.RESULTS:Most of the cultured cells were medullary neurons , more than 80%of which were glutamate positive neurons .Ang II (5 μmol/L) increased the level of ROS within 10 min in the medullary neurons .Ang II at 5μmol/L induced a significant [ Ca2+] i increase in the medullary neurons , and the effect of Ang II occurred rapidly and reached a peak within 20 min after administration.The level of [Ca2+]i started to decline after washout .The Ca2+elevation induced by Ang II was significantly decreased by apocynin or TEMPOL .No significant differ-ence in the cell viability between control group and 5μmol/L Ang II treatment group was observed .CONCLUSION:ROS is involved in the regulation of [Ca2+]i induced by Ang II in the primarily cultured medullary neurons , suggesting a poten-tial intracellular signaling mechanism involved in the Ang II-mediated oxidant regulation of central neural control of blood pressure.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and accuracy of enhanced magnetic resonance pulmonary perfusion imaging(MRPP) in the diagnosis and follow-up of pulmonary embolism(PE). Methods Sixty patients suspected of PE underwent MRPP. Twenty-seven patients also underwent radionuclide perfusion imaging. 22 patients repeated MRPP examination after 3 day to 1 month anticoagulation or thrombolytic therapy. The feasibility and accuracy of MRPP in the diagnosis and follow-up of PE were evaluated according to the transformation rate of signal (TROS), time-signal curve and some parameters of main pulmonary artery(such as peak value of flow,mean flow velocity and flow rate). The t test and rank sum test were used for the statistics. Results MRPP showed a high agreement with radionuclide perfusion imaging. TROS was (2. 86 ± 2. 48 ) vs ( 6. 72 ± 2. 54) ( t = 3. 370, P < 0. 01 ), the peak time was ( 13.98 ±5.60) vs ( 12. 33 ± 3.63 ) s ( t = 3. 930, P < 0. 01 ), the peak value of main pulmonary blood flow was (60.39 ± 15. 17) vs (69.93±13.22) cm/s(t=2.930, P<0. 01) and mean flow velocity (11.68±5.46) vs ( 13.54 ± 4. 18 ) cm/s ( t = 2. 380, P < 0. 05 ) before and after anticoagulation or thrombolytic therapy. The flow rate per unit was (80. 57 ± 24. 87) vs ( 85.48 ± 11.81 ) ml/s ( t = 0. 86,P > 0. 05 ) . Conclusion MRPP shows a high agreement with radionuclide perfusion imaging and is a useful method for the diagnosis and follow-up of PE.

Objective:To explore and discuss the differences of pregnancy contents and inform formats in in-formed consent form ( ICF) for the drug clinical trial between China and foreign countries. Methods:We collected Chinese and foreign ICFs for drug clinical trial that had been audited by the Ethics Committee of the third Xiangya Hospital for the past five years. Based on the relevant domestic and foreign law, we concluded the element stand-ards and inform formats about pregnancy inform. By analyzing the integrity of the whole elements, the inform rate of every element and the using rate of every inform format, we compared the differences of pregnancy contents and in-form formats between Chinese ICFs and foreign ICFs. Results:The total number of ICFs was 177 in this study, in-cluding 107 Chinese ICFs and 70 foreign ICFs. The integrity rate of pregnancy in Chinese ICFs was statistically lower than them in foreign ICFs (19% vs. 56%, P=0. 000). Compared with foreign ICFs, the low informed ele-ments were the study of the pregnancy risk (32% vs. 73%, P=0. 000), the pregnancy test during the following-up period (33% vs. 56%, P=0. 002) and the measurements for contraception (22% vs. 53%, P=0. 000). Conclusion:The integrity level of pregnancy content in Chinese ICFs was lower than that of the foreign ICFs. And the three elements including pregnancy risk study, pregnancy test during the following-up period and measure-ments for contraception was obviously defected. Pregnancy informing forms of informed consent in China was inferi-or to abroad.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of bronchoalveolar lavage( BAL) in the treatment of neonatal atelectasis with fiberoptic bronchoscopy under ultrasound monitoring. Methods From June 2018 to December 2018,29 children were diagnosed as atelectasis by lung ultrasound. After conventional mechanical vibration and sputum ineffective,BAL was treated with fiberoptic bronchoscopy. All patients be-fore operation were monitored by ultrasound to find the lung segment where the atelectasis was located. 0. 9%NaCl solution was injected by fibrobronchoscope(1~2 ml/kg),and then sucked to ensure the recovery rate of the lavage fluid was more than 50%. After each lavage,ultrasound was immediately used to monitor the recovery of atelectasis to determine whether or not to continue the lavage. One course of treatment could be continuously performed BAL 1 to 3 times a day,1 course per day,and up to 3 courses of lavage. We analyzed the efficacy,adverse reactions and complications of BAL in the treatment of neonatal atelectasis under ultra-sound monitoring. Results Twenty-nine patients underwent BAL treatment with fiberoptic bronchoscopy,25 cases (86. 2%) were cured,3 cases (10. 3%) were effective,and 1 case (3. 4%) was ineffective. All chil-dren had stable vital signs during treatment. Among them,11 cases (37. 9%) had transient hypoxemia, 3 ca-ses (10. 3%) had tracheal mucosal injury, and 2 cases (6. 9%) had hoarseness. There were no serious com-plications such as pulmonary hemorrhage,pneumothorax,and cardiac arrest. Conclusion BAL treatment of atelectasis under lung ultrasound monitoring has obvious effect,easy to operate,no radiation,no obvious ad-verse reactions and complications,which is worthy of clinical application.
