Objective To investigate the influence of inspired oxygen fraction (FiO2) on the ratio of PaO2/FiO2(P/F) during the implementation of lung protective ventilation strategy in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS) in order to unravel its clinical significance. Method This was a prospective study of 16 selected patients with ARDS treated with mechanical ventilation ( MV ) to get ratio of P/F in range of 100 to 200 by PEEP≥5 cmH2O and high inspired oxygen. After lung recruitment maneuvers by BiPAP with high pressure (PH) of 40 cmH2O for40 s, the MV was maintained the basic requirement for stabilizing the patients for 30 minutes. A series of FiO2 were set at fractions of 0.5,0.6,0.7,0.8,0.9 and 1in random sequence, and the changes of respiratory mechanics, blood gas and hemodynamics under the different concentrations of FiO2 were analyzed by using SPSS version 13.0 software. Results ( 1 ) The ratio of P/F increased as FiO2 increased, and it's significant as FiO2 increased to 0.7 or above. As the fractions of FiO2 were set at 0.5 and 1. O, the ratios of P/F changed in 24.70% ± 23.36% respectively. ( 2 ) Of them,6 patients ( 37.5% ) treated with FiO2 set at 0.5 had the ratio of P/F ＜ 200, and the fraction of FiO2 was increased to 1.0, the P/F ＞ 200. (3) FiO2 and Qs/Qt were negatively correlated ( r = - 0.390, P = O. 027 ),the higher inspired oxygen fraction, the lower shunt. When the fractions of FiO2 were set at 0.5 and 1.0 ,there was a positive correlation between △Qs/Qt and △P/F( r = 0.82, P = 0.005 ). Conclusions The inspired oxygen fraction affects the ratio of P/F, which may be resulted from shunt and it may influence the diagnosis of ARDS.

Objective: To construct and characterize GFP-mfgl 2 fusion protein expression plasmid (pEGFP-mfgl 2) and provide a direct and simplified methodology for primary assessment of the effect of mfgl 2 siRNA on the mfgl 2 gene expression. Methods: mfgl 2 cDNA was amplified from the mfgl 2 cDNA library pBluescript-m166 (pm166) of mouse genomic P1 plasmid and recloned into pEGFP-N2 upstream of GFP gene. The pEGFP-mfgl 2 was analyzed by restriction endonucleases BamH I and Hind III to ensure the orientation and the sequence. This fusion plasmid was then transfected into CHO cells and the fusion protein expression was observed by fluorescent microscope. Rusults: A 1.3 kb long cDNA was obtained. Restriction endonucleases and sequencing assays showed the correct orientation and sequence. After 24-48 hours transfection in CHO cells, the expression of pEGFP-mfgl 2 can be visualized through fluorescent microscope. Conclusion: pEGFP mfgl 2 has been constructed successfully. The recombinant vector can express GFP-mfgl 2 fusion protein. It provides a direct and simplified methodology for primary assessment of the effect of mfgl 2 siRNA on the mfgl 2 gene expression.

Abstract?AIM: To discuss clinical efficacy and safety of 10g/L atropine with short covering for children with amblyopia.?METHODS: Eighty -eight children ( 88 eyes ) with amblyopia, staying in hospital from February 2011 to February 2014 for treatment, were divided into control group ( n =44 ) and observation group ( n =44 ) . The control group only given short covering therapy was observed.Observation group was given 10g/L atropine treatment besides covering.Clinical efficacy, treatment compliance, visual acuity, corrected spherical degree of amblyopia eye and adverse events were observed and compared.?RESULTS:1) After treatment, total effective rate of the observation group was 95% ( 42/44 ) , significantly higher than that of control group ( 80%, 35/44, P<0.05 ); 2 ) excellent compliance rate of the observation group was 95% ( 42/44 ) , significantly higher than that of control group (82%, 36/44, P<0.05);3) visual acuity of the two groups when the disease was first diagnosed was not significantly different (P>0.05), but increased number of lines of vision and corrected spherical degree of amblyopia eye in the observation group were significantly higher (P<0.05);4) in the observation group total rate of adverse events was 9% ( 4/44 ) , significantly lower than that in the control group (23%, 10/44, P<0.05).?CONCLUSION: The combined therapy, 1% atropine with short covering, is effective and safe for amblyopia in children.

Objective To observe the expression of triggering receptor-1 on myeloid cells (TREM-1) of mice with acute lung injury (ALI) in oder to find out its regularity and significance in inflammatory response of or-ganisms. Method Thirty BALB/C mice were randomly(random number) divided into normal control group (n =6) and ALl group (n = 24). The models of ALI were made with intraperitonal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in dose of 10 mg/kg. Specimens from peripheral blood and lung tissue were collected 6 h, 12 h, 24 h and 48 h after LPS injected. The fluorescent real-time quantitative reverse transcriptiun-polymerase chain (RT-PCR) was used to detect TREM-1 mRNA, and ELISA was employed for detection of TREM-1 protein and TNF-α protein, and HE staining was made doe the pathological Smith lung score under light microscope. Analysis of variance was used for comparison of TREM-1 mRNA, TNF-α and Smith lung injury score between two groups. Spearman corre-lation analysis was made to find out the relationship among these three variables. Results The expressions of TREM-1 mRNA in lung tissue of ALI mice 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, and 48 hours after injection of LPS were 6.61±0.08,34.71±0.83, 61.85±14.05 and 56.46±8.89, respectively which were higher than that in control group (1.00±0.00, P = 0.017, 0.009, 0.002 and 0.003, respectively). The expressions of TREM-1 mRNA in blood were 14.01±3.24, 47.07±0.98, 8.18±0.43 and 8.06±0.05, respectively which were higher than that in normal control group (1.00±0.00, P = 0.010, 0.004, 0.011 and 0.011, respectively). The expression of TREM-1 rnRNA in tissue began to increase 6 hours after modeling and reached its peak 24 hours later, and expres-sion of TREM-1 mRNA in blood reached its peak after 12 hours. The levels of TREM-1 protein in lung tissue of ALl mice 6 h,12 h,24 h and 48 hours after LPS injected were 997.8±114.62, 1579.70±45.92, 1123.9±108.2 and 429.8±89.96 pg/mL, respectively which were higher than that of mice in control group (279.22±4.62 pg/mL, P = 0.024, 0.007, 0.011 and 0.04, respectively). The level of TREM- 1 protein reached the peak 12 hours after LPS injected, but it had no significant correlation with the expression of TREM-1 mRNA (P =0.14). The levels of TNF-α protein in lung tissue of ALI mice 6 h, 12 h, 24 h and 48 hours after LPS injection were 313.16±39.50, 491.91±96.65, 388.48±29.84 and 282.5±52.76 pg/mL, respectively which were sig-nificantly higher than that of mice in control group (256.6±28.31 pg,/mL, P = 0.037, 0.019, 0.032 and 0.043, respectively). The TNF-α concentration was positively correlated with TREM-1 levels in lung tissue and with Smith pathological score (r = 0.795, P = 0.001: r = 0.499, P = 0.034), but not with the expression of TREM-1 mRNA (P = 0.176). Conclusions The expression of TREM-1 mRNA in lung tissue of mice with ALI is elevated, and the expression of TREM-1 mRNA is related to the level of TNF-α and the severity of the ALI in in-flammatory responses in lung. The expressions of TREM- 1 gene are not consistent with the levels of TREM- 1 pro-tein, suggesting another new functional proteins involved in immune regulation.
