Objective To evaluate the efficacy of blue-green light phototherapy for jaundice in preterm newborns.Methods Total 124 preterm newborns with birth-weight below 2000 g were included in this study.Infants in group A (gestation age ≤32 weeks or/and instability,n =72) were treated with bluegreen light (group A1 ) or with single side blue light (group A2) randomly.Infants with gestation age ＞32weeks or/and stability (n =52) were also treated with blue-green light (group B1 ) or with single side blue light ( group B2) randomly.Peak levels of serum bilirubin ( PSB),the withdrawal time of jaundice and the duration of phototherapy were compared between groups.Results Group A:PSB of groupAl was lower than that of groupA2 [ (219 ± 31 ) μmol/L vs.( 257 ± 39 ) μ mol/L,P ＜ 0.01 ].The withdrawal time of jaundice group Al was earlier than that of group A2 [ ( 10.3 ±3.0) d vs.( 16.2 ±4.2) d,P ＜0.01 ].The duration of phototherapy of groupA1 was shorter than that of group A2 [ (87 ±34) h vs.(23 ±49) h,P ＜0.01 ].Group B:There were no differences in PSB and withdrawal time of jaundice between two subgroups ( P ＞0.05).The duration of phototherapy of groupB1 was shorter than that of group B2 [ (59 ±23) h vs.(73 ±74) h,P ＜ 0.05 ].Conclusion Blue-green light phototherapy is more effective than single side of blue light in treatment of jaundice in preterm newborns.

The high morbidity and compliments of patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) in preterm infants are reported,but the diagnostic and prognostic appraisal of PDA is still debatable.The B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) are found efficient in diagnosis of hemodynamically significant patent ductus arteriosus (hsPDA) in preterm infants,and also helpful in therapy decisions and prediction of treatment response.However,the type of assay and cut-off values have not yet reached a consent,so that further researches are needed.

Objective To discuss the risk factors for cardiac complications in infants of diabetic mothers (IDMs).Methods One hundred and seventy-one out of 228 IDMs hospitalized in Department of Pediatrics,Shenzhen Hospital of Peking University from Jan.2011 to Apr.2014,were involved,among them,there were 171 cases who had the complete mother's data during pregnancy,and they were received B ultrasonography whin 1 week after birth.All the infants were divided into 2 groups according to echocardiography within 1 week after birth:the observation group (the patients had cardiac complications) and the control group (the patients had normal heart).Conditions of IDMs and their mothers between the 2 groups were recorded and compared.Results In the 171 IDMs,there were 69 cases(38male and 31 female) in the observation group and 102 cases(59 males and 43 females) in the control group.There were 24 preterm infants,16 large for gestational age(LGA) infants in the observation group,while 47 preterm infants and 15 LGA in the control group,and which had no statistical difference between the both groups(x2 =0.129,2.163,1.995 ; all P ＞ 0.05).In the observation group,there were 7 (4.1％) newborns with hypoglycemia,24 (14.0％) women with advanced maternal age,24(14.0％) women with other gestational complications,19(11.1％) women having good control of their glucose serum levels,and 9(5.3％) women with impaired glucose tolerance.All the mentioned factors had statistical differences when compared with the control group[1 (0.6％) case,19 (11.1％) cases,15 (8.8％) cases,80(66.8％) cases,26(15.2％) cases] (x2 =7.752,5.707,9.423,43.735,3.917 ;all P ＜ 0.05,0.01).Logistic regression showed that women with other gestational complications as risk factors(OR =3.29,95％ CI 1.248-8.671),while having a good control of the glucose serum levels acted as a protectable factor(OR =0.098,95％ CI 0.045-0.217).Conclusions IDMs are prone to have cardiac complications if their mothers couldn't control the glucose serum levels during pregnancy,with other gestational complication and advanced maternal age and with more serious diabetes.

Objective To discuss the clinicd effect of using nebulised budesonide to treat neonatal laryneal edema caused by mechanical ventilation.Methods 43 newborns with mechanical ventilation were included in this study and divided into two groups:The Observational group(23 newborns)were treated with nebulised budesonide right before excubation once and three times after that,and the control group(20 newborns)were treated with dexamethasone once right before excubation and nebulised adrenine after that for three times.Comparisons were made between two groups about dismissing time of wheeze or hoarseness,tachypnea,PaO2 and PaCO2.Results Observational group:dismissing time of wheeze or hoarseness was(10.26±4.01)hours,dismissing time of tachypnea was(1.63±0.55)days,which was shorter than that of control group[(14.20±5.58)hours/(2.05±0.58)days],P＜0.05).PaO2 and PaCO2 of two groups had no statistical difference(P＞0.05).Conclusion Nebulised budesonide was effective in treatment neonatal laryneal edema caused by mechanical ventilation,using.

Objective To investigate the relationship between care need and quality of life of community hypertensive patients.Methods Stratified random sampling method was used to investigate 456community hypertensive patients using patients general information questionnaire,the World Health Organization Quality of Life BREF (WHOQOL-BREF)and community patients care needs questionnaire and the results underwent analysis.Results The care needs of the community hypertensive patients were at a medium level,all areas of quality of life were lower than the norm.Quality of life and care needs were negatively correlated.Conclusions The staff should assess the care needs of the community hypertensive patients,supply patient-oriented community nursing service,and take measures to improve quality of life of the community hypertensive patients.

Objective To evaluate the usefulness of ultrasonography in detecting parathyroid lesions in the patients with hyperparathyroidism. Methods The results of ultrasonography were compared with operative and histologic findings, and other imaging techniques such as 99m-Tc-sestamibi scintigraphy and CT in 210 patients with proved hyperparathyroidism.Results The overall sensitivity and specificity of ultrasonography in detecting parathyroid lesions were 68.62%, 93.79%. Lesions at lower pole of thyroid were more likely to be detected than ectopic ones. Ultrasonography was helpful in diagnosis of parathyroid adenoma, hyperplasia or carcinoma when combined with clinical manifestations. Conclusions Ultrasonography is a useful means in preoperative localizing of hyperparathyroidism.

Objective To investigate the causes and characterization of hepatic encephalopathy after transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunts(TIPSS).Methods 32 cases of patients with recepted TIPSS operation were enrolled in retrospective study.Results 9 of 32 patients suffered from hepatic encephalopathy were detected out after TIPSS. The present of hepatic encephalopathy was associated with the flow direction of blood in portvein after the operation(P

Objective To evaluate the usefulness of contrast enhanced ultrasound in the diagnosis of breast lesions. Methods Contrast enhanced ultrasound was performed after administration of SonoVue in 104 patients scheduled for surgical tumor removal. The enhancement morphology was classified as non, peripheral,homogeneous,regional,or heterogeneous enhancement based on distribution of enhancing areas. All breast lesions enhancement morphology were analyzed, and the diagnostic value of contrast enhanced ultrasound was calculated. Results The prevalence of non enhancement was significantly higher in benign lesions than in malignant ones(P = 0.013),and the prevalence of peripheral enhancement was significantly higher in malignant lesions than in benign ones (P = 6.02 × 10-7). Conclusions Contrast enhanced ultrasound is useful in diagnosis of breast lesions.
