Objective To evaluate T-lymphocyte subsets and sjTREC gene level in sepsis children and to provide a reasonable theoretical basis for immune regulation. Methods This prospective study was performed on children who were classified as sepsis group (n = 25), severe sepsis group (n = 23), and control group (n = 50). The T cell subsets were measured before the blood products,immune agents,and nutritional support were administrated. By real-time fluorescence quantitive-PCR method, the sjTREC levels of the patients with sepsis and healthy children were quantitatively detected respectively;then the sjTREC levels were absolutely quantified by two standard curve method. The results were demonstrated by sjTREC and endogenous reference gene (Cα) copies ratio (sjTREC/Cα× 2 × 1000) and statistically analyzed by SPSS 16. 0 software. Results The levels of CD3 +, CD4 +, and CD8 + T cells in severe sepsis group were lower than those in control group (P＜0.01). The level of sjTREC of severe sepsis group was 173.86 +38.37,which was significantly lower than those of sepsis group (345. 15 ± 66. 21) and control group (389. 42 ± 50. 20) (P ＜ 0. 01). Conclusion Children with severe sepsis have a range of T-lymphocyte subsets disorders and decreased thymic output function, so early immunotherapy can improve clinical outcome.

Objective To investigate pediatric infective endocarditis(IE) risk factors and the feature of pathogen.Methods We conducted a retrospective study of 46 cases who were diagnosed as IE from January 2000 to June 2007.Sixteen variables such as sex,primary disease,infectious site,complication,culture result and therapeutic measure were selected for logistic regression analysis.Results Forty-six IE patients accounted for 0.78‰ of all the hospitalized patients during the same period.Of 46 cases,40 had heart diseases.The incidence rate of left-sided endocarditis was higher than that of right-sided endocarditis.Twenty-four had positive blood culture result,one patient had positive culture from vegetation sample.The total positive culture rate was 54%.Gram-positive bacteria were found in 15 cases,and the most common organisms were α-hemolytic streptococcus.Gram-negative bacteria were in 7 cases and fungus infection was present in 3 cases.After antiboitic treatment,40 were cured,6 died.In the logistic regression model,the variables significantly associated with death included negative blood culture (OR=25.127,95%CI=1.110-363.236),hematological system disease (OR=28.620,95%CI=2.261-354.448) and multiple organ failure (OR=19.843,95%CI=0.786-221.754).Conclusion Streptococcus viridans is the most common pathogen in pediatric IE in our hospital.Higher incidence in the left heart than that in the right heart is found.Negative blood culture,hematological system disease and MOF are the risk factors in IE patients.

Objective To discuss the selection of different operation methods for cesarean scar pregnancy ( CSP ) . Methods A retrospective analysis was made on clinical data of 71 CSP patients treated in our hospital from January 2010 to January 2015.All the patients were accurately diagnosed by transvaginal color ultrasound examinations.Hysteroscopic evacuation was performed in 45 endogenous CSP patients, while in 26 exogenous CSP patients, 15 of them were treated by hysteroscopy and the other 11 patients were given laparoscopic operation. Results For the 45 endogenous patients, the success rate of hysteroscopic therapy was 92%( 41/45 ) .For the 26 exogenous patients, the success rate was 80% ( 12/15 ) for hysteroscopic and 82% ( 9/11 ) for laparoscopic therapy. Conclusions Preoperative categorizing of CSP is important for choosing different surgery methods. Hysteroscopic evacuation is the first choice for endogenous CSP.For exogenous patients, both hysteroscopic evacuation and laparotomy can be chosen.Therefore, the two minimally invasive procedures have limits, and transvaginal and laparotomy resection of lesion is still necessary sometimes.

0.05). In both A and B groups the number of CD_3~+, CD_4~+, CD_8~+ T cells and NK was signficantly higher after treatment than before treatment(P0.05). The amount of CD_3~+,CD_4~+ T cells and NK was obivously lower after treatment than before treatment in C group, and CD_8~+ T cells amount significantly increased after treatment compared with before treatment(P

Objective:To explore the effect of dialysis pipeline nursing group mode combined with predictive nursing measures on hemodialysis efficacy of diabetic nephropathy patients with maintenance hemodialysis (MHD).Methods:A total of 96 patients with MHD of diabetic nephropathy admitted to No. 904 Hospital of Joint Logistics Support Force of Chinese People's Liberation Army from January 2015 to December 2019 were selected as the research objects and divided into control group and observation group, 48 cases in each group. Patients in the control group were treated with routine dialysis pipeline and other hemodialysis nursing interventions, while patients in the observation group were treated with predictive nursing measures on this basis. The biochemical indexes, psychological state, compliance, incidence of nosocomial infection and complications and nursing satisfaction of the two groups before and after intervention were compared.Results:After the nursing intervention, the blood urea nitrogen (BUN), creatinine (Cr), and β2 microglobulin (β2-MG) of the two groups of patients were lower than those before the intervention, and the BUN of the observation group after the intervention, Cr and β2-MG were (12.04±1.98) mmol/L, (451.62±82.49) μmol/L, (13.53±2.31) mg/L, respectively, which were lower than those of the control group (15.82±2.31) mmol/L, (591.35±99.21) μmol/L, (18.83±2.92) mg/L, the difference was statistically significant ( t value was 8.608, 7.503, 9.862, P<0.05). After the intervention, the scores of the treatment compliance subscales of the observation group were 29.06±3.58, 23.42±2.99, 20.11±3.01, 14.76±2.94, which were higher than those of the control group (31.91±3.97, 21.53±3.21, 17.03±2.74, 12.36±3.04), the difference was statistically significant ( t value was 2.985-3.932, P<0.05). After the intervention, the SAS and SDS scores of the two groups were lower than those before the intervention, and the SAS and SDS scores of the observation group after intervention were 39.12±4.82 and 36.43±6.03, which were lower than those of the control group 48.25±5.14, 46.75±5.36, the difference was statistically significant ( t value was 8.997, 8.862, P<0.05). The incidence of nosocomial infections and complications in the observation group were 2.08% (1/48) and 4.17% (2/48), which were significantly lower than those in the control group, 14.58% (7/48) and 18.75% (9/48), The difference was statistically significant ( χ2 value was 4.91, 5.26, P<0.05). The nursing satisfaction degree of the observation group was 95.83% (46/48), which was higher than 72.92% (35/48) of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2 value was 9.56, P<0.05). Conclusions:The dialysis pipeline combined with predictive nursing can improve the psychological state of patients, reduce the incidence of hospital infection and complications, prolong the service life of vascular access, improve the quality of life of hemodialysis patients, improve the relationship between nurses and patients, and create a harmonious atmosphere, which is worthy of clinical promotion and application.

Objective To assess the value and clinical applicability of non-treponemal antigen serologic test and Treponema pallidum antigen serologic test in the diagnosis of congenital syphilis. Methods Totally,7800 newborns were collected from the out-patient and in-patient department. Toluidine red unheated serum test (TRUST) was conducted to quantitatively detect non-treponemal antibodies and Treponema pallidum particle agglutination assay (TPPA) to qualitatively detect specific treponemal antibodies in these subjects. The results of first serology test for syphilis were assessed for neonates with confirmed congenital syphilis. The sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of congenital syphilis were compared between TPPA and TRUST.Results Of the 7800 newborns undergoing syphilis serology testa, 60 were positive for TPPA and TRUST,including 15 cases of congenital syphilis, 47 were positive for TPPA but negative for TRUST, including 5 cases of congenital syphilis. The sensitivity and specificity were 75% (5/20) and 99.41% (7734/7780) respectively for TRUST in the diagnosis of congenital syphilis, 100% (20/20) and 98.88% (7693/7780) respectively for TPPA. Conclusion TPPA seems more applicable than TRUST to the screening for congenital syphilis.
