Background: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) strategies in COVID-19 patients differ from those in patients suffering from cardiogenic cardiac arrest. During CPR, both healthcare and non-healthcare workers who provide resuscitation are at risk of infection. The Working Group for Expert Consensus on Prevention and Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation for Cardiac Arrest in COVID-19 has developed this Chinese Expert Consensus to guide clinical practice of CPR in COVID-19 patients. Main recommendations: 1) A medical team should be assigned to evaluate severe and critical COVID-19 for early monitoring of cardiac-arrest warning signs. 2) Psychological counseling and treatment are highly recommended, since sympathetic and vagal abnormalities induced by psychological stress from the COVID-19 pandemic can induce cardiac arrest. 3) Healthcare workers should wear personal protective equipment (PPE). 4) Mouth-to-mouth ventilation should be avoided on patients suspected of having or diagnosed with COVID-19. 5) Hands-only chest compression and mechanical chest compression are recommended. 6) Tracheal-intubation procedures should be optimized and tracheal-intubation strategies should be implemented early. 7) CPR should be provided for 20-30 min. 8) Various factors should be taken into consideration such as the interests of patients and family members, ethics, transmission risks, and laws and regulations governing infectious disease control. Changes in management: The following changes or modifications to CPR strategy in COVID-19 patients are proposed: 1) Healthcare workers should wear PPE. 2) Hands-only chest compression and mechanical chest compression can be implemented to reduce or avoid the spread of viruses by aerosols. 3) Both the benefits to patients and the risk of infection should be considered. 4) Hhealthcare workers should be fully aware of and trained in CPR strategies and procedures specifically for patients with COVID-19.

During the epidemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), the infection of the elderly population will bring great challenges to clinical diagnosis and treatment, outcome and management.Combined with the characteristics of anesthesia and the pathophysiological characteristics of COVID-19 on lung function impairment in elderly patients, Chinese Society of Anesthesiology formulated the " Recommendations for anesthesia management and infection control in elderly patients with COVID-19″. This recommendation expounds preoperative visit and infection control, anesthesia management protocol, anesthesia monitoring, anesthesia induction/endotracheal intubation, anesthesia maintenance and infection control, intraoperative lung protection strategy, anti-stress and anti-inflammatory management, hemodynamic optimization, infection control during emergence from anesthesia, and postoperative analgesia in elderly patients with COVID-19, and provides the reference for the safe and effective implementation of anesthesia management in elderly patients during the prevention and control of COVID-19 epidemic.

Fecal microbiota transplantation(FMT) is a new treatment method for intestinal diseases, especially for recurrent Clostridium difficile infection(CDI), which is very effective.It can reconstruct the intestinal flora of patients and effectively correct the disorder of intestinal flora.In recent years, the clinical application of fecal transplantation has been more and more extensive.This paper reviews the development history, operation process, clinical application and adverse reactions of fecal transplantation.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the normal range of fraction exhaled nitric oxide(FeNO) in healthy schoolchildren in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei Province. METHODS A total of 337 schoolchildren(161 males and 176 females) in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei Province were selected randomly in our outpatient clinic and met the health standards. FeNO values were measured using NIOX. Age, height, weight and body mass index(BMI) were investigated. At the same time, skin prick tests were performed on children with suspected atopy. RESULTS Geometric mean of FeNO value in healthy schoolchildren in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei Province was 13 ppb(part per billion, ppb), and the 95％ Confidence Interval(CI, bias distribution) was 5-23 ppb, which was related to the gender of schoolchildren(P ＜0.001). There was no signif icant cor relation between age, height, weight, body mass index(BMI) and regional differences(P all＞0.05). FeNO values were no significant difference among the three regions(P ＞0.05); the geometric mean of FeNO values were 13 ppb in Beijing, 13 ppb in Tianjin, and 14 ppb in Hebei; 95％CI was 5 to 21 ppb, 5 to 21 ppb, 5 to 23 ppb, respectively. CONCLUSION FeNO values of healthy schoolchildren in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei provinces are only significantly correlated with gender. However, FeNO values are highest among schoolaged girls in Hebei, and 23 ppb is the 95％ normal range of FeNO in healthy schoolchildren in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei province. Gender and regional factors must be considered when FeNO values are evaluated.

Objective To discuss the diagnostic value of direct computed tomography venography (CTV)in lower extremity deep venous thrombosis (DVT).Methods The image data of 57 lower extremity DVT cases examined by direct CTV were analyzed retrospectively,and compared with X-ray digital subtraction angiography (DSA).Results 55 cases with 63 DVT of lower extremity veins were detected by direct CTV.The positive rate of diagnosis of direct CTV was 96.49% (55/57).23 cases were peripheral type,19 cases central type, 23 cases mixed type.The imaging findings of DVT in direct CTV were the blocked or discontinued vein and filling defection,collateral circulation was showed in 8 cases.Conclusion Direct CTV may show the position,size and shape of the DVT,and is simple,safe and less contrast agent, which is one of the important method of DVT diagnosis.

Objective To evaluate the clinical value of preoperative mark with methylene blue for the submucosal tumor originating from the muscluaris propria around the cardia in submucosal tunnel.Meth-ods A total of 27 patients with cardiac tumors originating from muscularis propria diagnosed by endoscopy and endoscopic ultrasonography underwent endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection from June 2011 to May 2014.Eighteen cases were marked by methylene blue,and 9 others were not.The operation time and the in-cidence of complications were compared between the two groups.Results All lesions were resected success-fully.The time of lesion location of non-mark group was 14.7 minutes(9-32 min),and that of mark group was 8.1 minutes(7-10 min).The incidence of subcutaneous emphysema of thorax and cervix of non-mark group was 2 /9(2 cases),and that of the mark group was 1 /18(1 case).The incidence of pneumoperitone-um of non-mark group was 1 /9(1 case),while that of the mark group was 2 /18(2 cases).There was no pneumothorax or mediastinal emphesema in all cases.Conclusion Marking with methylene blue before op-eration can shorten operation time effectively and lower incidence of complications.

We reported a case of pulmonary capillary hemangiomatosis (PCH) and introduced its diag-nosis, differential diagnosis, pathogenesis and development of treatment based on the review of Dana Point 2008 Classification of Pulmonary Hypertensiona and current literatures .A 43-year-old female presented progressive dyspnea, elevated pulmonary arterial pressures and CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) imaging of main pulmonary arterial enlargement and wide spread ill -defined centrilobular nodules of ground-glass opacity.Her histologic features were proliferation of capillary channels within alveolar walls as well as muscularization of arterioles and medial hypertrophy of muscular pulmonary arteries.The treatment with diuretics and warfarin was used promptly , but unfortunately was ineffective. The patient died three months after diagnosis .PCH is a very rare vascular disease with poor prognosis . The diagnosis of PCH rests on the integration of clinical and radiographic information with pathologic fea -tures, however pathology is the most reliable means .Because clinical symptoms, imaging and histological features of pulmonary veno-occlusive disease (PVOD) and PCH broadly overlap, differential diagnosis should be made carefully.Among the various pathologic features proliferation of capillaries within alveolar walls is the key point for diagnosing PCH , which is also the most critical criteria for differentiating PCH from PVOD.So far the only definitive treatment for PCH is lung transplantation , without which the pa-tient will die several months after diagnosis .

Myeloid leukemias are highly diverse diseases and have been shown to be associated with microRNA (miRNA) expression aberrations. The present study involved an in-depth miRNome analysis of two human acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cell lines, HL-60 and THP-1, and one human chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) cell line, K562, via massively parallel signature sequenc-ing. mRNA expression profiles of these cell lines that were established previously in our lab facil-itated an integrative analysis of miRNA and mRNA expression patterns. miRNA expression profiling followed by differential expression analysis and target prediction suggested numerous miRNA signatures in AML and CML cell lines. Some miRNAs may act as either tumor suppres-sors or oncomiRs in AML and CML by targeting key genes in AML and CML pathways. Expres-sion patterns of cell type-specific miRNAs could partially reflect the characteristics of K562, HL-60 and THP-1 cell lines, such as actin filament-based processes, responsiveness to stimulus and phag-ocytic activity. miRNAs may also regulate myeloid differentiation, since they usually suppress dif-ferentiation regulators. Our study provides a resource to further investigate the employment of miRNAs in human leukemia subtyping, leukemogenesis and myeloid development. In addition, the distinctive miRNA signatures may be potential candidates for the clinical diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of myeloid leukemias.

Background and purpose: Regional lymph node metastasis was significantly associated with the prognosis of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This study was designed to compare paclitaxel liposome plus cisplatin (LP) with gemcitabine and cisplatin (GP) in patients with regional lymph node metastasis of advanced NSCLC as a ifrst-line treatment. Methods:A total of 55 patients were randomly assigned to receive either liposomal paclitaxel (175 mg/m2) and cisplatin (75 mg/m2) or gemcitabine (1 000 mg/m2) and cisplatin (75 mg/m2) every 3 weeks. Results:Objective response rate (ORR) of lung primary foci was 37.9%in the LP arm and 30.8%in the GP arm (P>0.05) and the disease control rate (DCR) was 91.3%and 80.8%respectively (P>0.05);ORR of regional metastasis lymph node was higher in the LP arm (44.8%vs 15.4%, P<0.05).There was no signiifcant difference in DCR (93.1%vs 73.1%, P=0.101), although slight trends favoring paclitaxel liposome were seen;There was signiifcant difference in median overall survival (17.0 vs 12.0 months, P<0.05). LP was associated with significantly less thrombocytopenia and gastrointestinal side effects (P<0.05), but no signiifcant difference was observed in hyphemia, leucopenia, hepatotoxicity, renal toxicity and allergic reactions (P>0.05). Conclusion: Liposomal paclitaxel plus cisplatin is superior to gemcitabine plus cisplatin with less toxicity and better tolerated, it deserves further research and clinic application for patients with regional lymph node metastasis of advanced NSCLC.
