1.Progress in treatment of children with continuous blood purification
International Journal of Pediatrics 2015;42(5):595-598
Continuous blood purification is continuous, slow removal of water and solute molecules in the blood.So,it is a treatnent modality of organ supports.With the development of blood purification in children,application of continuous blood purification in children is beyond the field of renal replacement therapy.Treatment indications include systemic inflammatory response syndrome,sepsis,multiple organ dysfunction syndrome,acute respiratory distress syndrome,bums,etc.Continuous blood purification has become the most important treatment in pediatric intensive care unit.Because of the children's physiological features,blood purification equipment and the disease spectrum, continuous blood purification requires higher technology and presents more difficultits.

Modern Clinical Nursing 2013;(1):43-45
Objective To explore the effect of evidence-based care on the constipation of psychiatric patients.Methods The constipations in 328 psychiatric patients admitted to our department were intervened with evidence-based nursing.Frequency for defecation,incidence of difficult defecation and incidence of dry stool before intervention were compared to those two weeks after intervention.Result Two weeks after intervention,the defecation frequency,incidence of difficult defecation and incidence of dry stool were all significantly lower than those before the intervention(P<0.001).Conclusions The evidence-based nursing used in care to psychiatric patients with constipation can reduce the incidence of constipation,and relieve their physiological and psychological pains.

Objective To study the binding performance of 99Tcm labeled anti-human prostatic specific membrane antigen (PSMA) monoclonal antibody J591 (99Tcm-J591) and prostate cancer cells in vitro,the biodistribution and SPECT imaging of 99Tcm-J591 in nude mice bearing human prostate cancer in vivo.Methods The monoclonal antibody J591 was labeled with 99Tcm by improved Schwarz method.Labeled antibody was purified by Sephadex G-50.The labeling efficiency and radiochemical purity were measured by paper chromatography and trichloroacetic acid method.The binding performance of J591 and prostate cancer cells was measured by flow cytometry in vitro.The nude mice bearing PSMA-positive C4-2 prostate carcinoma xenografts served as experiment group,mice bearing PSMA-negative PC3 tumors served as control group.6.2-8.5 MBq of 99Tcm-J591 (25 μg) was intravenously injected into mice.Gamma imaging was performed 2,6,12 and 24 h after injection,T/NT was calculated by ROI technique.After scanned 12 h post injection,4 mice of the experiment group and 5 mice of the control group were sacrificed and the tracer in vivo biodistribution was measured by gamma-counting,and the % ID/g was calculated.Two-sample t test was carried out to validate significant difference of %ID/g between two groups.Results The labeling efficiency and radiochemieal purity of 99Tcm-J591 were (78.9±6.2)% and (92.3±5.1)%,respectively,and the specific activity of 99Tcm-J591 was 68.7 MBq/mg.The antibody J591 and 99Tcm-J591 could strongly combine with PSMA-positive C4-2 cells in vitro,and didn't combine with PSMA-negative PC3 cells in vitro.SPECT imaging results showed that radioactive concentration was obvious in tumor 6 h post injection,the concentration scope became large and the tumor image was clear 12 h post injection.T/NT was 1.9±1.1 at 2 h,4.3±1.8 at 6 h,5.6±2.7 at 12 h,1.4±0.6 at 24 h,respectively.In the control group,no radioactivity concentration was found in tumor,and T/NT was less than 2.The biodistribution results showed that %ID/g of tumor tissue was 20.1±5.2 in the experiment group and 5.8±2.6 in the control group,and there was significant difference (t=5.37,P<0.001).No significant tracer uptake occurred in other tissues and organs between the two groups (all t< 1.98,all P>0.05).Conclusion The immunoactivity,characteristics of biodistribution and tumor targeting property of monoclonal antibody J591 show promising future and potential values in diagnosis and therapy of prostate cancer.

Objective To explore the distribution of pathogens, bacterial drug resistance, clinical features and prognosis of bacterial meningitis (BM) in children.MethodsThe clinical data of children diagnosed with BM during January 2011 to July 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. Children were divided into good outcome group and poor outcome group by the outcome at discharge. The distribution of pathogens, bacterial drug resistance, clinical features, and prognosis were analyzed among different groups.ResultsThere were included 95 children diagnosed with BM,. among whom 69 (72.6%) children had Gram-positive bacterial infections with predominantStreptococcus pneumonia (43 cases, 45.3%) and 26 (27.4%) children had Gram-negative bacterial infections with predominantEscherichia coli (13 cases, 13.7%). More than 50%Streptococcus pneumonia andEscherichia coli were resisted to penicillin. The neurological complications in children with BM included subdural effusions, hydrocephalus, cerebral parenchyma injury, and hearing and visual impairment, et.al. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that consciousness, coma, and low level of glucose in cerebrospinal lfuid were the independent risk factors for adverse outcome at discharge.ConclusionStreptococcus pneumonia andEscherichia coli were the predominant pathogens in children with BM with high resistance rate to penicillin. BM children may have varying degrees of neurological sequelae. The unconsciousness and low level of glucose in cerebrospinal lfuid were associated with unfavorable outcomes at discharge.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution and the resistance of pathogens from the children with VAP in PICU,and to analyze the reasons of antibiotics resistance of the pathogens.METHODS The sputum obtained from the children with final diagnosis of VAP in PICU was cultured and identified from Jan 2005 to Dec 2006.The resistance of the bacteria identified to antibiotics used frequently was determined by Kirby-Bauer method.RESULTS A total of 187 strains were isolated from sputum specimens,of which Gram-negative bacilli and Gram-positive cocci accounted for 76.5% and 23.5%,respectively.Acinetobacter baumannii(17.7%),Escherichia coli(16.0%),Pseudomonas aeruginosa(15.0%) and Klebsiella pneumoniae(13.9%) were the most frequently isolates of Gram-negative bacilli.Their resistant rates to ?-lactam antibiotics were high,especially the ESBLs-producing strains in E.coli and K.pneumoniae.The Staphylococcus epidermidis(5.9%),Staphylococcus aureus(4.8%) and Enterococcus faecalis(4.3%) were the most common strains of Gram-positive cocci.No vancomycin-resistanct strains were found,but resistance rates to ?-lactam antibiotics and other antibiotics were high in S.epidermidis and S.aureus.CONCLUSIONS The main strains cultured from the sputum specimens of children with VAP in PICU are Gram-negative bacilli with high resistance rates to antibiotics,especially the ESBLs producing bacilli to ?-lactam antibiotics.Staphylococcus are the main Gram-positive cocci.
