Objective To study the effect and postoperative reaction of nasal endoscopic low temperature plasma radiofrequency ablation on children with snoring. Methods 104 cases with snoring received surgical treatment from May 2013 to May 2015 were divided into experimental group and control group. The experimental group patients re-ceived nasal endoscopic low temperature plasma radiofrequency ablation, the control group received adenoidectomy curettage combined with tonsillectomy. Then the surgery condition, postoperative pain, stress response and ventila-tion function were compared between the two groups. Results Operation indicator: the experimental group operation time, postoperative pain time, symptoms remission time, intraoperative blood loss were significantly lower than the control group ( < 0.05); Pain degree: 6 h, 24 h, 48 h, 72 h after surgery, the experimental group VAS score were significantly lower than that in control group ( < 0.05); Stress reaction: 24 h after surgery, the experimental group patients serum MDA, 8-isoPG, 3-NT content were significantly lower than that in control group, SOD, GSH content were significantly higher than that in control group ( < 0.05); Ventilation function: 6 months after surgery, the ex-perimental group AHI, ODI, SLT90%, LAT were significantly lower than that in control group, LSaO2 were signifi-cantly higher than that in control group ( <0.05). Conclusion Nasal endoscopic low temperature plasma radiofre-quency ablation can reduce surgical trauma and relieve postoperative pain and stress reaction, improve ventilation function, it's an ideal operative method for the treatment of children with snoring.

OBJECTIVE: This study was designed to explore the risk factors associated with severity of juvenile onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis. METHOD: A retrospective study was conducted to study determinants of severe forms of juvenile recurrent onset respiratory papillomatosis. The patients were separated into different groups based on the onset age, the first recurrence of age, the first recurrence of period, gender and incision of tracheal respectively. The relationship among the lesion severity score,the involvement of the subregion, operation period and the next operation period were also explored. RESULT: It was observed that some children who recurred before 4 years old required more surgery, shorter operation period(the average, longest or shortest operation period) than those elder children, the differences were statistically (P=0. 029, 0. 003, 0. 010, 0. 039, respectively). The severity score of lesion was correlated positively with the involvement of the subregion and negatively with operation period (r=0. 914, -0. 451, respectively). Some children who diagnosed before 4 years old had to endure more severity score and shorter operation period than those older children, the differences were statistically (P= 0. 036, 0. 000, respectively). 8 cases accepted incision of tracheal, they accepted more surgery too. But the differences in the onset age, the first recurrence of age, and the operation period were not statistically. CONCLUSION The results showed that the clinical course of juvenile onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis was closely related to the first recurrence age and period, while the severity of disease was associated to the onset age and the involvement of the subregion.

PURPOSE: Allergic rhinitis (AR) has become a global issue for a large part of the general population. Sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) has been used extensively to treat persistent allergic rhinitis (PAR). Although systematic reviews have confirmed the effectiveness of SLIT for the treatment of AR, a considerable number of studies using extracts of house dust mites (HDMs) for immunotherapy found no consensus on basic treatment parameters and questioned the efficacy of SLIT. METHODS: In this study, we evaluated SLIT for PAR by a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Medline, Embase, and Cochrane Library database searches were performed for RCTs on the treatment of PAR by SLIT that assessed clinical outcomes related to efficacy through May 2016. Descriptive and quantitative information was abstracted. An analysis was performed with standardized mean differences (SMDs) under a fixed or random effects model. Subgroup analyses were performed. Heterogeneity was assessed using the I2 metric. RESULTS: In total, 25 studies were eligible for inclusion in the meta-analysis for symptom scores and 15 studies for medication scores. SLIT was significantly different from the controls for symptom scores (SMD=1.23; 95% confidence interval [CI]=1.74 to 0.73; P<0.001). For medication scores, significant differences for SLIT were also observed versus the controls (SMD=-1.39; 95% CI=-1.90 to -0.88; P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Our meta-analysis indicates that SLIT provided significant symptom relief and reduced the need for medications in PAR. In this study, significant evidence was obtained despite heterogeneity with regard to the use of mite extract. Specifically, the mite extract used was provided by the patients with PAR. Furthermore, to confirm both the objective outcomes and the effective doses of HDM allergen extracts, experimental data should be obtained from large high-quality population-based studies.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the correlation between nonsyndromic deafness and mitochondrial 12s rRNA A839G mutation.

METHODSAccording to the clinical manifestations of mitochondrial DNA sequencing and analysis to find and determine family containing mitochondrial 12s rRNA A839G mutation. Harvested its family members blood and transferred their lymphocytes into lymphoblastoid cell lines, followed by cells cultured, cell doubling experiment, susceptibility testing, cellular oxygen consumption rate experiment, ROS and mitochondrial membrane potential experimental tests were progressed to explore the correlation between the A839G mutation and nonsyndromic deafness.

RESULTSThe mitochondrial 12s rRNA A839G mutation pedigrees were determined through the full sequence detections of the Mitochondrial DNA, further phylogenetic analysis showed that 839 point conservative index (CI) up to 78.6%; in RPMI-galactose medium containing A839G gene mutant cell line, the doubling time was significantly longer than the control group, and the difference was significant (P = 0.033). The effect to cell lines containing the A839G mutation of aminoglycoside drugs was not obvious. When compared with the control group, cell lines containing the A839G mutation significantly reduced cellular oxygen consumption rate(P = 0.033); compared with the control group, the ROS levels of cell lines containing the A839G mutation appeared more substantial elevated with significan difference (P < 0.01). The mitochondrial membrane potential of cells of experimental group was significantly reduced than the control group.

CONCLUSIONThe present study proved that the mitochondria 12s rRNA A839G mutations affect the function of the mitochondrial respiratory chain at the cell level, which might reduce the growth rate of the mutant cell lines, result in hearing.

OBJECTIVE To study on the influence of human papilloma virus(HPV) type on the clinical course of juvenile onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis(JORRP).METHODS Fresh tumor specimens of 38 patients were collected and the HPV type of the specimens was detected by flow fluorescent hybridization method.According to the results,children were divided into HPV6 and HPVll positive groups.The clinical data of the two groups were compared.RESULTS Among 38 children with recurrent respiratory papillomatosis,21(55.2％) were infected with HPV6,14(36.8％) were infected with HPVll,and 3(7.9％) were negative for HPV 6 or HPV 11.The proportion of aggressive cases in HPV6 and HPV11 groups were similar.The age of onset,preoperative clinical symptom score,number of anatomic locations,anatomic Derkay/Coltrera score and Dikkers score were significant different between the two groups (P=0.002,0.040,0.023,0.001,0.005,respectively).CONCLUSION JORRP patients with HPV11 infection had the features of smaller onset age,more severe clinical symptoms and broader invasion compared with HPV6 infection.

OBJECTIVES: The interaction between elderly people with disabilities and their caregivers and the improvement of caregiver burden is important for elderly people with disabilities and their caregivers. This study aims to explore the multiple mediating roles of caregiver's caring ability and resilience in depression in the elderly people with disabilities on caregiver burden. METHODS: A total of 246 elderly people with disabilities at home and their family caregivers from 5 regions were investigated by questionnaires, including the General Information Questionnaire, the Patient Health Questionnaire, the Family Caregiver Task Inventory, the Resilience Scale, and the Caregiver Burden Interview. A multiple mediation model was constructed and tested. RESULTS: Univariate analysis showed that the caregiver burden of disabled elderly men is higher than that of women; the lower the level of self-care of disabled elderly individuals, the greater the burden on their caregivers (both P<0.05). Correlation analysis showed that depression of the disabled elderly people was positively correlated with the caregiver burden (P<0.01). Caregiver's caring ability was positively correlated with caregiver's resilience (P<0.01), and both were negatively correlated with caregiver burden (both P<0.01). The multiple mediating effects of caregiver caring capacity and resilience between depression of the disabled elderly people and caregiver burden were significant, with the mediating effects of caregiver caring capacity and resilience accounting for 68.9% and 26.2% of the total effect, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Depression in the elderly people with disabilities can indirectly affect caregiver burden through the caregiver's caring ability and resilience. Families of older people with disabilities need to focus on both the elderly and their caregivers. It is possible to reduce the caregiver burden and improve the physical and mental health of the dyads by empowering the caregiver's caring ability and resilience.
