Results One-time success rate of vein imaging group reached 72.4% (42/58), puncture success rate reached 93.1% (54/58), higher than in conventional puncture group, which was 48.3% (28/58), 67.2% (39/58),the difference between the two groups had statistical significance(χ2=7.061, 10.629,P<0.05). Conventional puncture group 's operation time was (8.4±4.2) min,and puncture tube material cost was(123.37±62.20)yuan;vein imaging group respectively were (3.5±1.2) min, (67.50±24.82) yuan, the difference between the two groups had statistical significance (t=5.410, 4.057, P<0.05). Conventional puncture group's rate of complications was 41.4%(24/58), and vein imaging group was 17.2%(10/58), the difference between the two groups had statistical significance (χ2=8.155,P=0.004). Conclusions Application of vein infrared imaging instrument is a practical, safe and rapid method of vein-detaining needle, which can improve the work efficiency of nurses, and have more advantages in the treatment of patients with difficulty of vein-detaining needle.

Objective To explore the effects of early postnatal nutrition on adult-onset insulin resistance by an artificial nutrition intervention during the critical period. Methods On postnatal day 2, Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned randomly to overnutrition (SL), normonutrition (NL) and undernutrition (LL) via artificially adjusting the number of pups nursed per dam. Litter size was adjusted to 3 pups/dam, 10 pups/dam and 20 pups/dam for the SL, NL and LL groups, respectively. There were eight litters for each group. All the pups were nursed by their natural dams and fed with a standard rodent laboratory chow. The pups were weaned on postnatal day 21 and three male pups from each litter were separated. After that, all male rats were housed three per cage and fed standard chow until 16 weeks old. At 3 and 16 weeks, rats were killed after overnight fasting and blood was collected. Liver, gastrocnemius muscle and perirenal and epididymal fat pads were dissected and weighed to calculate relative mass after normalization for body weight. Physiological parameters, biochemical values and insulin resistance status, including serum insulin level, homeostasis model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) index and intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test (IPGTT), were dynamically monitored. Analysis of variance was used for statistical analysis. Results (1) Before weaning, the body weights of SL rats were significantly heavier than NL rats after postnatal day 10, and weights of LL rats were significantly lower than NL rats after postnatal day 7. After weaning, body weights of SL rats still remained heavier and weights of LL rats continued to be lower than NL rats (P<0.05). (2) At 3 weeks, the weights of liver and perirenal and epididymal fat pads in SL rats were significantly heavier than NL rats, whereas LL rats were lower than NL rats (P<0.05). At 16 weeks, the weights of liver, epididymal fat pads and gastrocnemius muscle in SL rats were significantly heavier than NL rats. Meanwhile, the weights of all detected tissues in LL rats were lower than the NL group. The weights of epididymal fat pads after normalization for body weight in the SL group were heavier than the NL group (P<0.05). (3) At 3 weeks, the fasting serum glucose level of the SL group was significantly higher than the NL and LL groups [(7.77±1.10) vs (6.33±1.20) and (5.80±1.51) mmol/L, respectively, F=13.217, P<0.01]. At 16 weeks of age, the serum insulin level in SL rats significantly increased compared to NL and LL rats [(0.31±0.11) vs (0.16±0.08) and (0.14±0.11) ng/ml, respectively, F=5.369, P=0.017]. For HOMA-IR evaluation, the index was significantly lower in LL rats compared to NL and LL rats at 3 weeks of age [(0.09±0.01) vs (0.25±0.01) and (0.31±0.05), respectively, F=25.923, P=0.005]. At 16 weeks, the index was significantly elevated in SL rats compared to NL and LL rats [(1.77±0.53) vs (0.84±0.44) and (0.83±0.67), respectively, F=5.765, P=0.015]. Furthermore, IPGTT was performed in all groups at 14 weeks of age. SL rats had significantly higher serum glucose levels at 60 min and a significantly increased area under the curve when compared to NL and LL rats (all P<0.05). (4) Serum from 16 week old SL rats was found to contain significantly higher levels of albumin, triglycerides and free fatty acids compared to NL rats (all P<0.05). Conclusions Early postnatal overnutrition induces persistent overweight and visceral white adipose accumulation in rats, while early postnatal undernutrition show the opposite effects. Early postnatal overnutrition may lead to adult-onset insulin resistance in rats. Avoiding overnutrition during the early postnatal period, a critical window for growth and development, may prevent or decrease later metabolic risks.

Objective To define the expression of AQP4 in normal rat eyes at transcriptional and translational level, so as to provide morphological bases for the mechanisms of water transport in eyes. Methods Immunohistochemical SABC method and in situ hybridization were used to detect the expression and localization of AQP4 in normal rat eyes. Results The corneal epithelium, the iridal pigment epithelium cells, the nonpigment epithelium cells of ciliary body, the lens epithelium cells, the lens fiber cells, the outer nuclear layer cells, and the inner nuclear layer cells, the ganglion cells of the retina showed positive immunoreactivity of AQP4. The reactive substance was distributed in membrane but not in nuclei of all positive cells. The resuIts of in situ hybridization were identical with that of immuohistochemistry method. AQP4 mRNA could be detected in the cytoplasm of positive immunoreactive cells, however, nuclei were negative. Conclusion The results implied that AQP4 could coordinate with other AQP4 to play an important role in the secretion and regulation of aqueous humor, the maintenance of the diaphaneity of cornea and lens, the motivation and transmission of optesthesia.;

Bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD)is a serious complication of respiratory system in preterm infants.The etiology and pathogenesis are complex and have not been clarified yet.In recent years, studies have shown that there is a certain relationship between respiratory microecology and BPD.Before premature infants develop BPD, their respiratory tract microecology has changed, including abnormal microbial diversity and evolution pattern.Therefore, research on the colonization and evolution of neonatal respiratory tract microecology and its relationship with BPD is expected to provide new ideas for its prevention and treatment.

Infection is one of the most serious diseases during the neonatal period and the leading cause of neonatal death.Early virus detection is particularly important in the vulnerable infants hospitalized in modern, family centered NICUs.These units bear increasing risks of virus transmission as they provide kangaroo care, 24 hour visiting policies, and are not only open to parents and siblings, but do also encourage their involvement.Due to the atypical clinical features, susceptibility to mixed viral-bacterial infection, lower positive rate of detection, non-specific treatment options, and causing short-term as well as long-term complications or even death if the infection is severe.Thus, it is very important to recognize respiratory virus infection early to prevent and control its spread in neonatal wards.This article aimed to elaborate the susceptibility factors, common pathogens, detection methods and the management of prevention, and control of neonatal respiratory virus infection.

To synthesize KLD-12 peptide with sequence of AcN-KLDLKLDLKLDL-CNH(2) and trigger its self-assembly in vitro, to encapsulate rabbit MSCs within peptide hydrogel for 3-D culture and to evaluate the feasibility of using it as injectable scaffold for tissue engineering of IVD. KLD-12 peptide was purified and tested with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and mass spectroscopy (MS). KLD-12 peptide solutions with concentrations of 5 g/L, 2.5 g/L and 1 g/L were triggered to self-assembly with 1xPBS in vitro, and the self-assembled peptide hydrogel was morphologically observed. Atomic force microscope (AFM) was employed to examine the inner structure of self-assembled peptide hydrogel. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were encapsulated within peptide hydrogel for 3-D culture for 2 weeks. Calcein-AM/PI fluorescence staining was used to detect living and dead cells. Cell viability was observed to evaluate the bioactivity of MSCs in KLD-12 peptide hydrogel. The results of HPLC and MS showed that the relative molecular mass of KLD-12 peptide was 1467.83, with a purity quotient of 95.36%. KLD-12 peptide at 5 g/L could self-assemble to produce a hydrogel, which was structurally integral and homogeneous and was able to provide sufficient cohesion to retain the shape of hydrogel. AFM demonstrated that the self-assembly of KLD-12 peptide hydrogel was successful and the assembled material was composed of a kind of nano-fiber with a diameter of 30-40 nm and a length of hundreds of nm. Calcein-AM/PI fluorescence staining revealed that MSCs in KLD-12 peptide hydrogel grew well. Cell activity detection exhibited that the A value increased over the culture time. It is concluded that KLD-12 peptide was synthesized successfully and was able to self-assemble to produce nano-fiber hydrogel in vitro. MSCs in KLD-12 peptide hydrogel grew well and proliferated with the culture time. KLD-12 peptide hydrogel can serve as an excellent injectable material of biological scaffolds in tissue engineering of IVD.
