Objective To confirm the effects of statin therapy on mortality of patients with acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS). Methods PubMed/Medline, Embase, Web of Science andCochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials were searched for articles using the terms acute lung injury, ALI,acute respiratory distress syndrome, ARDS, statin, simvastatin and rosuvastatin updated to November 17,2015. Randomized controlled trial (RCT) or observational cohort studies investigating the effects of statin therapy onmortality in patients with ALI or ARDS were all identified, without date or language restriction. The control group wasgiven conventional treatment, while the experimental group was treated with statins additionally. The primary outcomewas in-hospital mortality. Meanwhile, ventilator-free day, intensive care unit (ICU)-free day, ICU length of stay (LOS)and ICU mortality were also analyzed. RevMan 5.2 and STATA 13 software were used for systematic review and Metaanalysis, and funnel plot was used to analyze the publication bias. Results A total of five trials including threerandomized controlled trials and two observational studies were included. Among 1636 patients enrolled in the study,there were 739 patients in experimental group, and 897 in control group. It was shown by Meta analysis that there was nosignificant difference in in-hospital mortality between experimental group and control group [relative risk (RR) = 0.96,95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 0.79-1.15, P = 0.63]. The subgroup analysis based on RCT and cohort study, or thesubgroup analysis of different statins showed that there was no significant difference in in-hospital mortality betweenthe experimental group and the control group (both P > 0.05). There were no significant differences in ventilator-freedays [mean difference (MD) = 1.41, 95%CI = -0.32-3.13, P = 0.11], ICU-free days (MD = -0.23, 95%CI = -1.61-1.15,P = 0.75), ICU length of stay (MD = -1.03, 95%CI = -6.55-4.50, P = 0.72), or ICU mortality (RR = 0.88, 95%CI =0.68-1.14, P = 0.33) between the experimental group and the control group. It was shown by funnel plot that there was nopublication bias in in-hospital mortality. Conclusion The systematic review and meta-analysis suggests that statin may not be associated with a significant reduction in mortality, ventilator-free day, ICU-free day and ICU length of stayin patients with ALI/ARDS.

Objective:To analyze the etiology and clinical characteristics of hospitalized children with fever and cervical lymphadenopathy in general hospital, so as to provide evidence for clinical diagnosis and treatment.Methods:Fifty-six children with fever and cervical lymphadenopathy in the pediatric ward at the Peking University Third Hospital from January 1, 2016 to December 31, 2020 were analyzed retrospectively.They were divided into<6 years old group( n=33) and ≥6 years old group( n=23) according to their ages.The differences of etiological composition among different age groups were analyzed.According to the causes of disease, the cases were divided into infectious disease group and non-infectious disease group.The dynamic changes of etiological composition year by year were analyzed, and the laboratory examination and treatment of children were summarized. Results:Among the 56 cases, 53 cases were confirmed, including 17 cases(30.36%)of acute suppurative lymphadenitis, 13 cases(23.21%)of Kawasaki disease, 13 cases(23.21%)of infectious mononucleosis, seven cases(12.50%)of respiratory tract infection and three cases(5.36%)of histiocytic necrotizing lymphadenitis.As for Kawasaki disease, there were significantly more children in the <6 years old group than that in the ≥ 6 years old group( P=0.005). During the past 5 years, the proportion of infectious diseases have decreased year by year, and the proportion of non-infectious diseases have increased year by year.The difference was statistically significant( χ2=11.443, P=0.022). The levels of leukocyte, neutrophil and quick C-reactive protein in children with non-infectious diseases were higher than those in infectious disease group.The differences were statistically significant(all P<0.05). Among the 56 children, 54 cases(96.4%)were treated with antibiotics.There was no significant difference in the usage rate of antibiotics between the infectious disease group and the non-infectious disease group( χ2=0.019, P=0.890). Conclusion:The main diseases of fever with cervical lymphadenopathy in pediatric inpatients in general hospital are acute suppurative lymphadenitis, Kawasaki disease and infectious mononucleosis, respectively.During the past 5 years, the proportion of non-infectious diseases has increased year by year, but the usage rate of antibiotics has not declined.Clinical attention should be paid to the rational use of antibiotics.

Objective:
To investigate the effects and the potential mechanism of shikonin on rat random flaps.
Methods:
Seventy-two wistar male rats in grade SPF were randomly divided into negative control group, tetramethylpyrazine group (TMP group) or shikonin treatment group. The random skin flap sized 8 cm×2 cm, with a cephalic based pedicle, was performed on the back of the rat. Each group was administered accordingly by intraperitoneal injection once per day for 7 days: shikonin treatment group (1 mg/kg), TMP group (10 mg/kg) and control group (1 ml/kg). Morphological changes of skin flaps were observed by HE staining. The positive expression of iNOS and COX-2 in skin flap tissues after operation were detected by immunofluorescence staining. The serum contents of TNF-α and IL-6 were detected by ELISA.
Results:
Inflammatory cell infiltration and inflammatory reaction of flap was more severe in control group at different time points after operation. The number of inflammatory cells in shikonin treatment group and TMP group were significantly decreased, compared with controls (
