Objective To investigate the risk factors involved in the refractory pneumonia caused by multidrug resistant acinetobacter baumannii (MDRAb) in pediatric Intensive care unit (PICU).Methods From January 2009 to August 2011,115 patients with MDRAb pneumonia were treated in Department of Emergency,Wuhan Children's Hospital,Wuhan.Another 45 patients with negative MDRAb (NMDRAb)pneumonia served as control.The patients in the two goups were analyzed using univariate and multivariate Logistic regression to find out the risk factors for MDRAb infection.Results Among the 176 clinical strains of acinetobacter baumannii isolated,128 (72.73％) strains were MDRAb.After drug susceptibility tests,acinetobacter baumannii showed the rates of resistance to β-lactams antibiotics not including cefoperazone-sulbactam were more than 70％,and the rates of resistance to carbapenems antibiotics were higher than 90％.All rates of resistance to antibiotics of betalactams and carbapenems in MDRAb were higher than those in NMDRAb significantly.There were very low rates of drug-resistance found in Amikacin,Levofloxacin,Ciprofloxacin and Minocycline ( ＜20％ ).Multivariate logistic regression revealed that ICU stay,length of time for mechanical ventilation,anemia,hypoproteinemia and the use of carbapenems were independent risk factors involved in MDRAb pneumonia.Conclusions MDRAb was an important conditional pathogen with high rate of drug-resistance to many antibiotics leading to pneumonia in PICU.It increased the mortality of patients significantly.To control the infection of MDRAb was the key to increasing efficacy of treatment of pneumonia in PCIU.

Objective To study the pathogenic bacteria strains with drug-resistance prevailing in patients with ventilator-associated pneumonia(VAP)in Pediatric Intensive Care Unit(PICU)in order to provide a reasonable guidance to the clinical use of suitable antibiotics.Method A retrospective clinical study in 46 patients with VAP was carried out in PICU of Wuhan Children's Hospital between January 2008 and June 2010.The prevalent strains of the pathogenic bacteria with drug-resistance isolated from lower respiratory tract by aspiration were analyzed.Results In total,119 pathogenic microbial strains were isolated including Gram-negative bacilli(G-,65.55%),fungi(21.01%)and Gram-positive cocci(G+,13.45%).Among pathogens,the most common pathogenic strains were Acinetobacter baummannii, Escherichia coli,Klebsiella pneumoniae,candida albicans and coagulase-negative staphylococci.Antibiotic susceptibility tests indicated that the situation of the multiple drug-resistances to antibiotics found in G- and G+ Was serious. Most of G- were sensitive to ciprofloxacin, amikacin, imipenem, meropenem,cefoperazone-sulbaetam and piperacillin-tazobactam.The G+ cocci were 100% susceptibility to vancomycin, teicoplanin and linezolid.Fungi were almost sensitive to all the anti-funaus agents. Conclusions The oredominant oathogens of VAP were G- bacilli,and their multiple drug-resistances to antibiotics were the serious problems.The monitoring of the drugresistance should be emphasized, and the option of antibiotics should depend on the antibiotic sensitivity test.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of neonates with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) according to Berlin definition.Methods A retrospective study was carried to analyze the clinical features about diagnosis,treatment,chest X-ray findings,mortality,complications and ventilator parameters in 86 neonates with severe ARDS admitted in the NICU from January 2005 to December 2013.Results (1)Among the 86 cases,55 were cured,and 31 died with 36.0％ mortality.(2) Chest X-ray showed there was decreased lucency of bilateral lungs with ground-glass appearance,lung texture with thick chaos or dot flakes or patchy shadows in 36 neonates; diffuse infiltrates and extensive confluent consolidation shadows in bilateral lungs along with peripheral air brornchograms in 26 cases; heart shadow and diaphragmatic surface disappeared like a white lung change in 24 cases.(3) Persistent pulmonary hypertension of newborn as a complication occurred in 68 cases with 79.1％ incidence.(4) Eighty-six cases were categorized into survival group and death group.The results showed compared with the survival group,the neonates in death group required higher FiO2,and PaO2,and lower PaO2/FiO2 before mechanical ventilation (P ＜ 0.01),but needed higher initial PIP of mechanical ventilation (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Neonatal ARDS is still a kind of critical condition with high mortality and lack of evidence-based diagnostic criteria so far.The therapeutic strategy for neonatal ARDS should be a comprehensive measures in addition to appropriate respiratory support.

Objective To investigate the neuroprotective effects and mechanisms of 5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide formyltransferase/ IMP cyclohydrolase(AICAR) supplement (AMPK activator) in different stages of neonatal rats sufferring from hypoxia-ischemia encephalopathy ( HIE). Methods Neonatal rat hypoxia-ischemia brain injury model was employed in this study. A total of 160 neonatal rats were distributed into five groups: sham, model control,AICAR30 min, AICAR24 h and AICAR72 h. The neuroprotective effects of AICAR supplement (30 min, 24 h, 72 h post operation) were compared by cresyl violet staining; Expressions of P-AMPK,AMPK in the brain tissue were measured by Western blotting.Foot-faults method was used to evaluate the long-term prognosis of the rats. Results Compared with the sham group, the survival of rats brain in model control group was significantly decreased [(100.0± 0.1)% and (45.3± 6.3)%, P< 0.05]. AICAR had neuroprotective effects when treated at 30 min and 24 h post operation,while the protective effects disappeared when treated later (72 h post operation) (P>0.05). Compared with the sham group, the expression of P-AMPK significantly increased about three times, while ATP level decreased close to the same. Conclusion Early AICAR treatment can protect hypoxia-ischemia brain injury by increasing AMPK-ATP level.

Objective To determine the dynamic changes in adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) in neurons of neonatal rats suffering from hypoxic ischemic brain injury.Methods Twenty-four-hour old and seven-day old neonatal rats were used in this study.A classic primary cortical neuron oxygen glucose deprivation (OGD) model and neonatal rat hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) model were employed.Lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) and 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) were used to evaluate neuron viability and damage.The expression of phosphorylated adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (P-AMPK),phosphorylated activated protein kinase (P-Akt) and Cleaved Caspase-3 in neurons and brain tissue was measured by Western blot at different time points after OGD or HIE.The Student-t test was used for statistical analysis.Results (1) Compared with the control group,LDH levels at 2,4,8 and 24 h after OGD were higher (all P＜0.05) and optical absorption levels of MTT were lower (all P＜0.05).(2) Levels of P-AMPK in the OGD group were higher than those in the control group,and showed a time-dependent increase at 30 min and 2,4,8 and 24 h (all P＜0.05).The expression levels of P-AMPK in the HIE group were higher than those in the control group (0.345 ± 0.038,0.387 ± 0.112 and 0.618 ± 0.075 at 1,3 and 7 days after HIE,and 0.132±0.032 in the control group,all P＜0.05).(3) The levels of P-Akt increased above the control levels at 30 min (0.991 ±0.134 vs 0.304±0.050),reached a maximum level at 2 h (1.183± 0.107),and then gradually declined,whereas the levels of Cleaved Caspase-3 started to increase at 30 min,and remained elevated at 24 h (all P＜0.05).Conclusion Following hypoxic ischemic brain damage,the expression of P-AMPK is significantly increased in both in vivo and in vitro studies in a time-dependent manner.

Objective To investigate the role of miR-126 (micro RNA-126) in rat endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) proliferation and migration and the starget gene of miR-126 by bioinformatics and experimental survey.Method EPCs were transfected with control oligoes and miR-126 mimics or inhibitor by electroporation.MTT was performed to evaluate the growth of EPCs subjecting to miR-126 overexpression.Cell migration analysis was done by wound healing and transwell assay.The target genes of miR-126 were predicted by TargetScan and validated by Western blot.Result (1) miR-126 mimics promoted EPCs growth at 24 h post cell transfection (P ＜ 0.01).In contrast,the EPCs growth was immue from miR-126 application at 48 and 72 h.(2) Both the wound healing and transwell assay show that miR-126 promotes EPCs migration (P ＜ 0.01) and miR-126 inhibitor inhibits EPCs migration (P ＜ 0.01).(3)It is predicted that KANK2 is the potential target gene of miR-126 by TargetScan online software.(4) The results of Western blot indicated that miR-126 mimics repress the expression of KANK2 compared with NC but miR-126 inhibitor enhances KANK2 expression.Conclusions miR-126 has a transient effect on the promotion of EPCc growth.miR-126 promotes EPCs migration and targets KANK2 protein.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of aminophylline,caffeine citrate and aminophylline combined with naloxone in prevention of apnea of prematurity(AOP).Methods Ninety-four infants with a birth weight ＜ 1 500 g and gestational age ＜ 34 weeks admitted to Department of Pediatrics,Tongji Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College,Huazhong University of Science and Technology between Jan.2010 and Jan.2012 were randomly divided into 3 groups.(1) Aminophylline group (n =30):30 infants received a loading dose of 4-5 mg/kg of aminophylline and then maintained by a dose of 2 mg/kg,with intravenous drip q12 h.(2) Caffeine citrate group(n =32):a loading dose of 20 mg/kg of caffeine citrate was followed by a daily maintained dose of 5 mg/kg,with intravenous drip per day.(3) Aminophylline combined naloxone group (observation group,n =32):32 infants were treated with Aminophylline combined with naloxone.After 6 hours of the first dose of aminophylline,a dose of 0.1 mg/kg naloxone was injected,q12 h.Then the two drugs were used alternately.The mortality and incidence of AOP,bronchopulmonary dysplasia(BPD),retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and brain injury were evaluated,and drug-related side effects were recorded.Results 1.There was no significant difference in gender,gestational age,birth weight,maternal antenatal glucocorticoid application,pregnancy (including multiple pregnancy) and delivery,5 min Apgar score,oxygen therapy,and the application of positive airway pressure as well as pulmonary surfactant among the 3 groups(all P ＞0.05).2.Compared with aminophylline group,the incidence of apnea of caffeine group and observation group were significantly lower (F =6.704,P ＜ 0.05),but there was no significant difference between caffeine group and observation group (P ＞0.05).3.There was no statistically significant difference in mortality,duration of oxygen therapy,the incidence of ROP,brain injury and hearing loss,postmenstrual age,body weight at discharge,the duration and cost of hospitalization among the 3 groups(all P ＞0.05).4.The BPD incidence in caffeine group[9.4％ (3/32 cases)] and observation group [12.5％ (4/32 cases)] were lower than that in Aminophylline group [20.0％ (6/30 cases)],but there was no statistical significance among the 3 groups(P ＞ 0.05).5.No drug-related side effects were recorded in the 3 groups.Conclusions It is safe and effective to use aminophylline combined with naloxone in prevention of AOP,and its efficiency is similar to caffeine citrate.

AIM To observe whether limb ischemic preconditioning (LIP) could attenuate pyramidal neuronal apoptosis of the CA1 hippocampus and brain edema evoked by brain ischemia in rats. METHODSSeventy-two rats whose bilateral vertebral arteries occluded permanently were randomly assigned into 6 groups: sham, LIP(bilateral femoral arteries were clamped for 10 min, 3 times, in a 10-min interval), brain ischemic insult, LIP+brain ischemic insult, DMSO+LIP+brain ischemic insult and SB 203580+LIP+brain ischemic insult groups. Assays for neuronal apoptosis were performed using TUNEL staining. The percentage of wet over dry tissue weight of the brain was measured by weighing method. RESULTS There were almost no TUNEL-positive cells in the CA1 hippocampus in either sham or LIP group. Clear TUNEL-positive pyramidal neurons of the CA1 hippocampus and increase in brain water content were detected in rats subjected to brain ischemic insult. But the number of TUNEL-positive cells and the increase in brain water content were significantly decreased in LIP+brain ischemic insult group compared with that in brain ischemic insult group, indicated that LIP prevented the occurrence of apoptosis of pyramidal neurons of the CA1 hippocampus and brain edema induced by brain ischemic insult. Pretreatment with SB 203580, an inhibitor of mitogen activated protein kinase p38(p38 MAPK), significantly increased the number of TUNEL-positive cells and brain water in SB 203580+LIP+brain ischemic insult group compared with that in DMSO+LIP+brain ischemic insult group, indicated that SB 203580 blocked the protection of LIP against neuronal apoptosis in the CA1 hippocampus and brain edema. CONCLUSION LIP could attenuate pyramidal neurons apoptosis of the CA1 hippocampus and brain edema evoked by brain ischemia, which maybe related to the activation of p38 MAPK.
