Objective To investigate the respiratory mechanics and treatment outcomes of different types of mechanical ventilation for patients with neonatal acute respiratory distress syndrome(ARDS):the high frequency oscillation ventilation + pulmonary surfactant (HFOV+PS),conventional mechanical ventilation + pulmonary surfactant(CMV+PS),conventional mechanical ventilation(CMV). Methods Seventy-five cases with neonatal ARDS,25 cases in the HFOV+PS group,30 cases in the CMV+PS group,20 cases in the CMV group. Patients in the former two groups received 70 mg/kg PS at a time. PaO2,PaCO2,PaO2/FiO2,oxygenation index(OI)and respiratory index(RI)were detected at 0 h,12 h,24 h,48 h,72 h post-mechanical ventilation. Results At 12, 24,and 48 hours post-mechanical ventilation,patients in the HFOV+PS group had a significantly higher level of PaO2 and a significantly lower level of PaCO2 than those of patients in the CMV+PS group and the CMV group(P<0.05). At 12,24,48,and 72 hours post-mechanical ventilation,patients in the HFOV+PS group had a significantly higher level of PaO2/FiO2 and significantly lower level of OI and RI than those of patients in the CMV+PS group and the CMV group (P < 0.05,respectively). Patients in the HFOV+PS group also had significantly shorter durations of mechanical ventilation and oxygen usage than those of patients in the CMV+PS group and the CMV group (P < 0.05). No significant differences were observed in Gas leak,the incidence of intracerebral haemorrhage and cure rate among the three groups. Conclusions Application of HFOV with PS therapy for patients with neonatal ARDS can timely improve the oxygenation,shorten the time of mechanical ventilation and the usage of oxygen,without increasing complications.

Study the serum level of HGF, Cys C and TGF-beta1 in type 2 diabetic nephropathy (DN), the infect of Pingshen decoction on those index. Selected 69 cases of 2 type DN and randomly divided into therapy group (36 cases) and control group (33 cases). The therapy group were treated with Pingshen decoction 1 dose/d, bid po. The control group were treated with NephritisShu tablet, 6 tablet, tid po. 8 weeks was a course. Before and after treatment, we examine the serum level of HGF, Cys C and TGF-beta1 by ELISA and immunonephelometry, and compare with 30 cases of healthy control group. The study demonstrates that before treatment, the serum level of HGF in both groups were significantly lower than healthy control group (P < 0.01), but Cys C, TGF-beta1 were significantly higher (P < 0.01). After treatment, the serum level of HGF of both groups were increased. The serum level of HGF of therapy group were significantly higher than of control group (P < 0.01), but the serum level of Cys C and TGF-beta1 were significantly lower than control group (P < 0.01). The serum level of HGF was correlated negatively with Cys C,TGF-beta1. In control group, the UAER, urine beta2-MG and quantity of 24-hour urine protein were significantly decreased after treatment (P < 0.01). The index of urine of therapy group were significantly lower than control group (P < 0.01). Results indicate that test of serum level of HGF and Cys C,TGF-beta1 of diabetic nephropathy have important clinical significance. Pingshen decoction can effectively intervene in the serum level of HGF and Cys C, TGF-beta1 and index of urine.

Objective To investigate the relationship between bed rest time and development of prethrombotic state in the elderly patients with hip fracture.Methods One hundred and sixty-six patients who stayed in bed after hip fracture,aged ≥65 yr,were divided into 5 groups according to the bed rest time on admission to hospital:bed rest time ＜ 24 h (Ⅰ group,n =61),bed rest time 24-48 h (Ⅱ group,n =29),bed rest time 3-6days (Ⅲ group,n =29),bed rest time 7-14 days (Ⅳ group,n =34),and bed rest time ＞ 14 days (Ⅴ group,n =13).Venous blood samples were collected to measure the platelet count,coagulation function,and concentrations of plasma D-Dimer and serum α-granule membrane protein 140 (GMP-140).The development of abnormality in each index was recorded.The development of deep vein thrombosis in both lower extremities was diagnosed using color Doppler ultrasound in D-Dimer-positive patients.Results Compared with group Ⅰ,the abnormal rate of fibrinogen (Fib) and D-Dimer and serum GMP-140 concentrations were significantly increased in Ⅱ and Ⅲ groups,the abnormal rate of platelet count,Fib and D-Dimer and serum GMP-140 concentrations were increased in lⅣ group,and the abnormal rate of platelet count was increased,and no significant change was found in the serum GMP-140 concentrations and abnormal rate of Fib and D-Dimer in Ⅴ group.Compared with group Ⅱ,the serum GMP-140 concentrations were significantly increased in Ⅲ and Ⅳ groups,the abnormal rate of Fib and D-Dimer was increased in Ⅳ group,and no significant change was found in the abnormal rate of Fib and DDimer in Ⅲ group.The abnormal rate of platelet count was significantly lower in Ⅳ group than in Ⅲ group.Color Doppler Ultrasonography showed no sign of deep vein thrombosis.Conclusion For the elderly patients with hip fracture,the possibility of pre-thrombotic state developed is increased when the bed rest time is more than 24 h,and the patients were classified as high-risk patients when the bed rest time is more than 3 days.

Objective To determine the mortality and associated risk factors in the patients with diabetic foot ulcers. Methods One hundred and sixty-three patients with diabetic foot ulcers hospitalized from January 2001 to December 2006 were followed up until December 2009. Mortality rates were derived from Kaplan-Meier survival curves. The prognostic factors were evaluated with Cox proportional hazard model. Results Follow-up was successful in 139 out of 163 patients, with a mean follow-up period of(3.71 + 1. 80)years. 55 patients(39 males and 16 females)died during the follow-up. The 5-year mortality was 45.8% and mean survival time was 5.38 years(95% CI 4.87-5.89). The median survival time was 6.83 years. Age, smoking, hypertension, coronary artery disease, and diabetic nephropathy were found to be independent prognostic factors for mortality. Conclusions Diabetic foot ulcers increased the mortality of diabetic patients. Age, smoking, hypertension, coronary artery disease, and diabetic nephropathy were predictive risk factors for mortality.

To investigate the expressions of proliferative antigen Ki-67 and apoptosis-antagonizing protein Bcl-2 in patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) and their clinical significance, immunohistochemistry method was used for detection of Ki-67 and Bcl-2 in bone marrow or peripheral blood of 29 patients with CLL. The results showed that the level of Ki-67 expression in advanced stage of CLL was higher than that in early stage of CLL and there was significant difference between these stages of CLL, but there was no significant difference between expression levels of Bcl-2 in two stages. The survival time in the group with Ki-67 expression < or = 8% was longer than that in the group of Ki-67 > 8%, and there was no significant difference of survival time between high and low groups in terms of Bcl-2 expression. It is concluded that detection of Ki-67 antigen and Bcl-2 protein for CLL patients can reflect the status of proliferation activity and apoptosis suppression of leukemia cells in patients; the level of Ki-67 expression closely correlate with the Binet stage and prognosis of CLL.
