Objective To observe the treatment response and potential issues related to antiretroviral therapy (ART) in pediatric patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and to provide a basis for revising the treatment guideline and improving the clinical practice. Methods Children eligible for ART according to the current treatment guideline were recruited from Dehong area. Enrolled patients were provided with ART and followed up for regular clinical check and laboratory tests. Results By the end of March 2009, a total of 70 children had received ART. Among them, 60 patients were treated with regimen including zidovudine (AZT)+ lamivudine (3TC)+nevirapine (NVP). Twelve, eighteen, twenty-three and nineteen patients have tested for HIV viral load after 3 month, 6 month, 12 month and 18 month treatment, respectively. Among them, 7, 12,14 and 14 patients respectively achieved HIV viral load lower than 1000 copy/mL. Average CD4+ Tlymphocyte count increased from (317.8±288.8) × 106/L at baseline to (1037.2±1086. 1) × 106/Lafter 18 month treatment. Side effects mainly occurred within the first 3 months of treatment. Nearly 50% of children had gastrointestinal symptoms. Resistance to 3TC, NVP and efavirenz (EFV) were found in five patients who have completed 12 months of treatment. Conclusions Pediatric AIDS patients show good compliance and treatment response to ART. Most side effects happen in the first 3months of treatment and the most common side effects are gastrointestinal symptoms.

Objective To evaluate the effects of post-operation rehabilitation treatment of patients with calcaneus fracture by dynamic plantar pressure analysis,and assess the value of the Footscan system.Methods Sixty-two patients with unilateral calcaneus fracture were randomly divided into a rehabilitation group and a control group.The patients in the rehabilitation group were given early,systemic standard rehabilitation treatment,while those in the control group took functional exercise following the doctors'advice.At 3 months and 6 months after operation,the plantar pressure distribution of the patients in both groups was analyzed with the Footscan system,respectively.Results After 3 months of treatment.there was statistically significant difference between the injured and the uninjured sides in both groups,with regard to the contact time,average plantar pressure and pressure-time integrals at different phases of gait.However,there was no significant difference between the injured and the uninjured sides after 6 months in rehabilitation group.But in control group,there was still statistically significant difference between the two sides with regard to the above parameters.Conclusion Early rehabilitation treatment could significantly improve the function outcome of patients with calcaneus fracture.Footscan System can objectively evaluate the recovery of the calcaneous fracture.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of transbronchial lung biopsy (TBLB) in pediatric interstitial lung diseases.Methods Retrospective data evaluation the efficacy and application of 10 undiagnosed pediatric interstitial lung diseases patients by No-X-ray guided TBLB between December 2013 and December 2014 were investigated.Results Specimens from all cases were successfully obtained,6 patients were confirmed by pathological diagnoses,and4 patients were confirmed by pathology and clinical manifestations.Among 10 patients,3 of them had allergic alveolitis,2 cases had bronchiolitis obliterans organizing pneumonia (BOOP),1 had pulmonary vasculitis,2 cases had nonspecific interstitial pneumonia,and the other 2 had bronchiolitis obliterans.The complications include 2 pneumothorax,1 case was cured with thoracic cavity closed drainage,and the other case case did not receive special treatment and alleviated himself.No bleeding and other complications occurred.Conclusion The results suggest that TBLB is a safe and effective minimally invasive modality for the diagnosis of pediatric diffuse lung disease.

Objective To survey the survival status, functional status, marital status and the present situation of the survival patients with spinal cord injury 40 years after Tangshan earthquake. Methods From February to May, 2016, a total of 216 patients with spinal cord injury were surveyed with questionnaire, in which 139 cases lived centralized and 77 cases lived scattered. The questionnaire was self-designed and included eleven items and 51 questions, which related to ability of daily life, marital status, employment status and socioeconomic status and so on. Results A total of 960 (25.15%) patients with spinal cord injury survived 40 years after Tangshan earthquake. In 216 surveyed pa-tients, the employment rate was 9.3%, the married rate was 53.2%, and 44.9%earned less than 500 yuan every month. The incidence was 25.9%for pressure score, 50.50%for neuralgia (severe pain accounted for 23.51%), and 19.40%for urinary tract stones. 56%of patients could take their own basic self-care. Conclusion There were many problems such as high complication rate, low employment rate and poor economic condition in the spinal cord injury group 40 years after Tangshan earthquake.

OBJECTIVETo study the efficacy of community management model of bronchial asthma in children.

METHODThrough community outreach and clinic, 120 cases of children with asthma were enrolled from the 11 000 children aged 0 to 14 in Zhanlanlu area, and a community management model of asthma was established according to the Global Initiative for Asthma requirements combined with the actual situation of the community, both physicians and patients participated in case identification, file creation, and long-term standardized management. Through repeated medical education, the telephone hotline and interactive network of asthma among physicians, children and parents, a physician-patient relationship was established. The data of standardized medication, scheduled re-visit to the hospital, frequency of asthma attacks, antibiotic use, medical expenses, the loss of parents work hours etc. before and after the implementation of community management model were analyzed and compared.

RESULTAfter implementation of community management model, the use of systemic corticosteroids (19.4%), oral medication (31.6%) was significantly lower than those before implementation (68.3% and 90.0%) (χ(2) = 51.9, 41.1, P < 0.01), use of inhaled corticosteroids (76.5%) and oral leukotriene receptor antagonist (79.6%) was significantly higher compared with control and before management level (10.0%), χ(2) = 106.0, P < 0.01. The days of attacks of asthma (4.6 ± 2.3), the use of antibiotics (16.2 ± 6.1), (5.7 ± 2.9) and the cost of treatment significantly decreased. In 16 cases (13.3%) two-way referral was applied. In this study, the dropout rate was 18.3%, by telephone and network supervision of lost cases, re-education, made some children return to management, eventually the dropout rate was 9.2%.

CONCLUSIONEnrollment of children with bronchial asthma into community management model made the children adhere to the management regularly and a standardized management was achieved.
