Objective To explore the characteristics of clinic and epidemiology of neonatal respiratory syncytial virus(RSV) pneumonia in newborn infants.Methods Three hundred and nine neonates(male 196,female 113) who were admitted to children's hospital of Fudan University and identified as having RSV pneumonia from Jan.2004 to Dec.2008 were enrolled.RSV antigen was detected in exfoliated respiratory cells by direct immunofluorescence.All the clinical data were collected and subjects and they were divided into different groups based on path of infection,gestational age and RSV status.Results From case notes over the 5 years,309 eligible neonates with RSV infection were identified.Male term neonates were more likely to acquire infection,as compared to female,1.71.0.The incidence of RSV infection peaked in winter and spring.Compared with community acquired infection group,hospital acquired infection group had more premature infants(23.2% vs 8.7%,P=0.002),lower birth weight[(3 010.8?852.8) g vs(3 153.2?943.4) g,P=0.026],much longer mean length of hospital stay[(19.0?8.0) d vs(12.2?4.5) d,P=0],more expensive cost[(5 646.4?3632.2) RMB vs(4 175.8?2 879.2) RMB,P=0] and later occurrence day[(21.3?8.6) d vs(15.8?6.0) d,P=0].Compared with simple RSV infection group,mixed infection group had more expensive cost[(6 063.1?3 085.4) RMB vs(4 513.2?3 860.8) RMB,P=0.047] and more oxygen use(40.0% vs 25.7%,P=0.006).The clinical characteristics of patients with RSV pneumonia varied.Preterm group compared with term group more frequently exhibited apnea and cyanosis(20.0% vs 0.7%,42.9% vs 22.7%),respectively.Forty-two percent of them had bacterial infection,while 13.3% of them had infection of other part of body.The prognosis of most RSV(99.0%) infections was good.Conclusions RSV was an important cause of respiratory tract infections during the last five years.Clinical characteristics of RSV infections were atypical.Hospital acquired RSV infection was more severe than the community acquired infection in neonates.There are no specific,effective interventions for treating RSV infections,so preventive measures are most important.

Fraction absorbed (Fa) is an important parameter to describe the absorption level of oral drugs, and an important basis for the development and optimization of the formulation process. Because it is easily confused with the concept of absolute bioavailability, it has not received enough attention from the industry. There are many complex factors affecting Fa. There are three time-related factors that directly affect the extent of Fa: the release time, the absorption time, and the residence time. The relationship between these three time-related factors determines the extent of Fa. Generally, we are more concerned about the apparent factors that affect the extent of Fa, including independent variables and covariates; The independent variables include administered dose, route, dosage form, etc. The covariates are divided into internal and external factors, and external factors include food factors, drug interactions, etc. Internal causes include age, sex, disease, etc. This paper analyzes and systematically combs how independent variables and covariates directly or indirectly affect the three time-related factors by affecting the body's physiology and internal environment, thus changing the complex process of Fa. Understanding this theoretical framework can better optimize the independent variables to reduce the impact of covariates on Fa. In addition, this paper also introduces the latest progress of prediction and evaluation of Fa, including the progress of complex dissolution device and the status of software prediction.

Objective To evaluate the role of fibroblast growth faetor-2 (FGF-2) in neuropathic pain (NP) in rats.Methods One hundred male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 7 weeks,weighing 200-250 g,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=25 each): sham operation group (group S),group NP,phosphate buffer solution (PBS) group and FGF-2 antibody group (group Ab).FGF-2 antibody 18 μg (40 μl) was injected intrathecally at 1,6,9,13,16 and 20 days after operation in group Ab,while the equal volume of PBS was injected intrathecally in group PBS.Spinal nerve injury was produced by exposing the sciatic nerve and its branches and ligation and transection of tibial nerve and common fibular nerve.Pain behavior was assessed at 1 day before operation and at 1,4,7,14 and 21 days after operation.The paw withdrawal mechanical threshold (PWMT) was measured.The animals were then sacrificed and the lumbar segment (L4-6) of the spinal cord was obtained for determination of the contents of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in the spinal cord.Results Compared with group S,the PWMT was significantly decreased and the contents of TNF-α and IL-6 in the spinal cord was significantly increased in groups NP,PBS and Ab (P ＜ 0.05).The PWMT was significantly higher and the contents of TNF-α and IL-6 in the spinal cord were significantly lower in group Ab than in groups NP and PBS (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion FGF-2 is involved in the occurrence and development of NP and induction of the inflammatory response in the rat spinal cord in involved in the mechanism.

Objective To investigate the association between prodromal headache and the propensity of rebleeding after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.Method Prodromal headache was defined as a sudden attack of severe headache lasting at least one hour with or without accompanying symptoms,not leading to a diagnosis of SAH 4 weeks before the confirmation of subarachnoid hemorrhage.Two hundred and nine patients with aneurymal subarachnoid hemorrhage were enrolled in this research.Age,gender,Hunt-Hess grade,D-dimer, (FBG),site and number of aneurysms and prodromal headache were recorded.Patients were divided into rebleeding group and non-rebleeding group.Comparing the above survey components between two groups was carried out by using case control study method.Age,aneurysm number,D-dimer and fibrinogen of the two groups were analyzed by t test.Prodromal headache,gender,site of aneurysms were analyzed by chi square test.Hunt- Hess grade was analyzed by rank test.Results Twenty-two(10.5%)patients had rebleeding.In the rebleeding group,10 patients(45.5%)had prodromal headache,while in the non-rebleeding group(n=187),21 patients (11.2%)had prodromal headache.Patients with prodromal headache had greater propensity of rebleeding compared with those without prodromal headache(P
