Objectives To analyze the relationship between the different dosage of vancomycin and its blood concentration in children in pediatric intensive care unit (PICU), the relationship between different valley concentrations and therapeutic efficacy and the adverse reactions. Methods The clinical data of 72 children admitted to PICU and treated with vancomycin from January 2013 to June 2016 were retrospectively reviewed. The vancomycin doses in 58 cases was 40 mg/(kg·d) and were 60 mg/(kg·d) 14 patients. In the subjects treated at 40 mg/(kg·d), administration by q12h were in 19 cases, q8h in 22 cases and q6h in 17 cases. After vancomycin was administered at least 4 doses, blood samples were collected, and the valley concentration was determined within 30 min before administration of vancomycin and peak concentration was determined within 30-60 min after administration of vancomycin. The concentration of vancomycin in plasma was detected by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Results When vancomycin was administrated at 40 mg/(kg·d), there were no difference in valley concentration and peak concentration among the three groups of q12h, q8h, and q6h (P>0.05). The effective rate was not different between valley concentration ≤5 μg/mL and >5 μg/mL of vancomycin (81.8% vs. 84.0%, P>0.05). Compared with vancomycin 40 mg/(kg·d) group (q8h), the valley concentration and peak concentration in 60 mg/(kg·d) group were significantly increased (P<0.05). Conclusion It was difficult to reach a valley concentration of 10 μg/mL by using conventional doses of vancomycin. Thus, in order to achieve effective concentration and reduce adverse reactions, the dosage of vancomycin can be increased, and the times of administration can also be increased.

Objective: To explore the effect of enteral nutrition on tumor cell proliferation activity in rectal cancer patients with nutritional risk treated with preoperative neoadjuvant therapy. Methods: Sixty-six rectal cancer patients with nutritional risk treated with preoperative neoadjuvant therapy from January 2016 to January 2018 in the Yongchuan Hospital Affiliated to Chongqing Medical University were selected. The patients were divided into experimental group (enteral nutrition combined with neoadjuvant therapy) and control group (simple adjuvant therapy) according to the random digits table method, with 33 cases in each group. The expressions of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and Ki-67 antigen before and after treatment were detected by immunohistochemical method; the albumin and prealbumin before and after treatment were observed, and the nutrition risk screening 2002 (NRS2002) was evaluated. Results: There were no statistical differences in the expressions of PCNA and Ki-67 antigen before treatment between 2 groups (P>0.05); the expressions of PCNA and Ki-67 antigen after treatment in experimental group were significantly lower than those in control group, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05). There were no statistical differences in the NRS2002 score, albumin and prealbumin before treatment between 2 groups (P>0.05); the NRS2002 score after treatment in experimental group was significantly lower than that in control group: (1.58 ± 0.50) scores vs. (3.65 ± 0.72) scores, the albumin and prealbumin after treatment were significantly higher than those in control group: (35.92 ± 2.77) g/L vs. (31.12 ± 1.76) g/L and (204.58 ± 23.86) mg/L vs. (157.46 ± 18.99) mg/L, and there were statistical differences (P<0.01). Conclusions Enteral nutrition can reduce the proliferation activity of tumor cell in rectal cancer patients with nutritional risk treated with preoperative neoadjuvant therapy, and it can improve the nutritional status of patients.

more likely to have H.pylori infection than those without digestive symptoms.Conclusions The total infection rate of H.pylori in Chinese children and adolescents is 29% and there is significant difference in geographical distribution. The infection rate of H.pylori in the higher incidence area of gastric cancer is 2.8 times higher than that in the low incidence area of gastric cancer. However,high quality epidemiological investigation with large sample size is needed,in order to further clarify the details of H.pylori infection in children and adolescents in China.
