Chinese Journal of Postgraduates of Medicine 2011;34(27):22-24
ObjectiveTo analyse the changes of electrolytes and electrolyte disturbances within 72 h in asphyxia neonates. MethodsTwenty-three severe-asphyxia neonates (asphyxia group) and 27 mildasphyxia neonates(control group) were selected.Venous blood samples of 2 ml were drawn at 0-24 h, 25-48h and 49-72 h respectively. The changes of electrolytes(such as plasma sodium, potassium, chlorine,calcium and magnesium) and the incidence of hyponatremia,hypokalemia,hypocalcaemia and hypomagnesemia were compared between two groups. ResultsThe levels of plasma sodium, calcium at 0-24 h, 25-48 h and 49-72 h in asphyxia group were lower than those in control group (P < 0.05). The levels of plasma magnesium at 25-48 h and 49-72 h in asphyxia group were lower than those in control group (P < 0.05 ), but there was no significant difference at 0-24 h (P > 0.05 ). The levels of plasma potassium at 49-72 h in asphyxia group was lower than that in control group(P< 0.05). There were no obvious changes in plasma chlorine, phosphorus in two groups (P>0.05). Hyponatremia, hypokalemia, hypocalcaemia was happened within 72 h in asphyxia neonates especially at 25-48 h, but hypomagnesemia was more at 25-48 h and 49-72 h. ConclusionElectrolyte disturbances can appear not only in 24 h, but also in different periods after asphyxia, therefore, it is necessary to maintain homeostasis by taking corresponding measures according to the changes of blood gas and the changes of electrolytes.

Objective This study seeks to use a meta-analytical approach to quantitatively assess the results of applying the problem-based learning(PBL) teaching model and the traditional lecture-based learning(LBL)teaching model to basic medical courses in undergraduate medical edu-cation. Methods The CNKI and VIP databases were electronically searched to retrieve randomised controlled trial studies that examined the use of PBL methods for basic medical courses in under-graduate medical education. In these studies PBL teaching model was used in experiment group and LBL teaching model was used in control group. Pass rate or test scores was used to evaluate the effect of learning. The retrieved documents ranged from the time that each database was first constructed to December 2012. After two researchers performed literature screening independently, data extraction, and quality assessment procedures in strict accordance with the inclusion and exclusion criteria of this study, the Stata 11.0 software package was utilized to conduct the meta-analysis. Results This meta-analysis examined 28 studies that included a total of 3703 subjects. The modified Jadad scores of 20 studies(71.4%) were less than 4, and those of 8 studies(28.6%) were more than or equal to 4. The meta-analysis revealed that compared with the traditional teaching model, the PBL teaching model did not produce improved examination passing rates for a course [relative risk(RR):1.05, 95%confidence interval(CI):(0.99, 1.10), P=0.098] but could improve examination scores for a course [standardized mean difference (SMD): 0.73, 95% CI: (0.51, 0.96), P<0.001]. Conclusion For basic medical courses in undergraduate medical education, compared to LBL teaching, PBL teaching can improve students' test scores but cannot improve students' pass rate. PBL used in basic medical courses has di-versified forms and lacks unified criterion, so there is still a long way to go for the appli-cation of PBL.

Objective To explore the relationship between infant feeding practices and infants growth,especially the weight gain for length in the first 6 months of life. Methods Two-hundred healthy full-term singlet normal birth weight 5 - 6 months old infants and their main care givers were recruited in Kongjiang community health service center in Shanghai. The questionnaires included infants feeding pattern, feeding environment and care givers feeding behaviors, and were completed on-site by investigators. The birth weight was obtained. The weight and length of infants at 6 months were measured. Results There were 70/200 (35.0%) infants overweight (BMI for age Z score>+1) at 6 months. There were more overweight boys than girls (40.0% vs. 30.9%, x2 = 1.798, P = 0.180). Compared with normal weight infants, the overweight infants had same birth weight (3.30 ± 0.35 kg vs. 3.35 ± 0.32 kg, t =1.010, P = 0.314) and same length at 6 months (67.64 ± 2.10 cm vs. 67.91 ± 1.97 cm, t=- 0.896, P = 0.371). However, the overweight infants gained much more weight for length in the first six months of life. At 6 months, the weight and BMI of overweight infants was significantly higher than that of normal weight infants (9.16 ± 0.67 vs. 7.94 ±0.64, t = 12.324, P < 0.01;19.86 ± 1.24 vs. 17.41 ± 0.80, t = 14.953, P < 0.01). The rates of exclusive breastfeeding for at least four months, continued breastfeeding at six months, complementary food consistency, and complementary feeding frequency, were not significantly differenct between overweight and normal weight infants (x2 =0.723 - 2.701, P > 0.05). The grandparents played an important role in infants feeding in Shanghai. There were 39.0% infants fed only by grandparents, and 23.0% infants fed jointly by grandparents and parents (x2 = 0.175, P > 0.05).The care givers' educational level and knowledge of feeding skill were similar in overweight and normal weight infants (x2 = 0.446, t = 0.949, P > 0.05). However, the overweight infants were fed more quickly than normal weight infants (Z = 2.753, P < 0.01), and there was less language communication between care givers and overweight infants during feeding (Z = 2.932, P < 0.01). In overweight infants, the overfeeding behaviors of care givers were positively correlated with BAZ (r = 0.281, P < 0.05). Conclusions Overweight in early life is associated with some particular infants feeding behaviors of care givers in Shanghai. The long term effect of more rapid weight gain for length in the first 6 months of life on the risk of childhood obesity warranted to be further followed and researched.

Objective To compare the lung protection roles of intraperitoneal pre-injection with penehyclidine for two kinds of rat models with pulmonary and extrapulmonary acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDSp and ARDSexp). Methods Forty healthy adult Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into five groups (each n = 8): the rats in sham group received only tracheotomy; the ARDS rat models were reproduced by intratracheal inhalation of 0.1 mol/L hydrochloric acid (HCl) 2 mL/kg to simulate ARDSexp (HCl group) and 0.15 mL/kg oleic acid (OA) intravenous injection to simulate ARDSp (OA group) after tracheotomy; and the rats in two intervention groups were intraperitoneal injected with penehyclidine 0.5 mg/kg. All rats were received mechanical ventilation immediately after model reproduction. Carotid arterial blood was collected 4 hours after model reproduction for determining the arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2), and oxygenation index (PaO2/FiO2) was calculated. Carotid venous blood and lung tissues were harvested, and the levels of myeloperoxidase (MPO), interleukin-8 (IL-8) and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) in serum and lung tissue were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Pulmonary pathology was observed under optical microscope, and pathological score of Smith was calculated. Results Under optical microscope, a large number of inflammatory cells infiltration in lung tissue, obvious alveolar collapse, fibrous exudation in alveolar and alveolar hyaline were found in HCl group. In OA group, however, microvascular congestion and interstitial pulmonary edema were the main pathological changes, with alveolar structure being kept relatively intact. Compared with sham group, pathological score of Smith in HCl and OA groups were increased, oxygenation was lowered, and inflammatory factors levels in serum and lung tissue were increased with levels in lung tissue being higher than those in serum, without significant difference between the two models. When pretreated with penehyclidine, however, pathological injury induced by HCl or OA was alleviated, and pathological score of Smith was also decreased as compared with that of corresponding model groups (5.48±1.76 vs. 9.69±2.02, 3.97±2.14 vs. 8.71±2.18, both P < 0.05), PaO2/FiO2was raised significantly [mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 323±55 vs. 211±27, 307±56 vs. 207±31, both P < 0.05], the inflammatory factors levels in serum and lung tissue were obviously decreased [MPO (μg/L): 11.91±1.55 vs. 14.82±1.25, 12.75±1.16 vs. 16.97±2.06 in serum, 25.80±3.36 vs. 35.18±4.01, 24.23±1.24 vs. 33.94±1.43 in lung tissue; IL-8 (ng/L): 358±30 vs. 459±25, 377±38 vs. 427±34 in serum, 736±53 vs. 866±51, 701±53 vs. 809±39 in lung tissue; NF-κB (ng/L):483±68 vs. 632±73, 514±83 vs. 685±78 in serum, 984±75 vs. 1 217±123, 944±90 vs. 1 163±105 in lung tissue;all P < 0.05]. But all parameters above were similar between the two pretreatment groups (all P > 0.05). Conclusions Inflammatory cell infiltration and alveolar collapse mainly happened in HCl induced ARDSp, while pulmonary interstitial edema and hemorrhage was mostly seen in ARDSexp rats induced by OA intravenous injection. There was no significant difference in oxygenation and inflammatory response between the two models of rats. Pre-intraperitoneal injection of penehyclidine equally improved oxygenation state, inhibited lung inflammation response, and reduced lung injury in the two kinds of ARDS, but there was no difference in protective role between two models pretreated with penehyclidine.

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effects of dihydroquercetin (DHQ) on hemorheology and other relevant related indexes in local cerebral ischemic injury model rats. METHODS: SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group, model group, nimodipine group (positive control, 20 mg/kg) and DHQ low-dose, medium-dose and high-dose groups (15, 30, 60 mg/kg), with 10 rats in each group. Administration groups were given relevant medicine intragastrically, sham operation group and model group were given constant volume of 0.4% Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose solution, once a day, for consecutive 14 d. After last administration, local cerebral ischemic injury model was induced by bilateral common carotid artery ligation in other groups except for sham operation group. After 24 h of cerebral ischemia, histopathological changes of brain tissue in rats of each group were observed; the levels of hemorheology indexes [whole blood viscosity (low, medium and high shear), whole blood reduced viscosity (low, medium and high shear), plasma viscosity], erythrocyte parameters (hematocrit, EAI, DI, IR), coagulation function indexes (APTT, PT, TT, FIB) were detected. RESULTS: Compared with sham operation group, the cells in the brain tissue of model group were loose, the gap was obvious, and the neurons around the ischemic area were damaged obviously; the levels of whole blood viscosity, whole blood reduced viscosity, plasma viscosity, hematocrit, EAI, IR and FIB were increased significantly, while the levels of DI, APTT, PT and TT were decreased or shortened significantly (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Compared with model group, above symptoms of administration groups were improved to different extents, whole blood viscosity, plasma viscosity, EAI and IR of nimodipine group, whole blood viscosity and hematocrit of DHQ high-dose group, plasma viscosity and EAI of DHQ groups, and IR of DHQ medium-dose and high-dose groups were decreased significantly; DI, APTT, PT and TT of nimodipine group, DI, APTT and TT of DHQ groups and PT of DHQ high-dose group were increased or prolonged significantly (P<0.05 or P<0.01). There was no statistical significance in other indexes among those groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS: DHQ can protect against local cerebral ischemic injury model rats, the mechanism of which may be associated with improving hemorheology indexes and coagulation function disorder.
