Objective To identify risk and protective factors of the periventricular-intraventricular hemorrhage (PV-IVH) in preterm infants. Methods By 1:1 case-control study, prenatal and perinatal data were collected and analyzed between preterm infants with PV-IVH and control group from January 2012 to October 2014. The risk and protective factors for the PV-IVH were identiifed by univariate analysis and multivariate conditional logistic regression analysis. Results There were one hundred and thirty-two preterm infants diagnosed of PV-IVH, in which, among whom 6 preterm infants could not be matched to the control infants in the protocol. Finally, 126 pairs of infants were enrolled in the study. There were no differences between two groups in gestational age and birth weight (all P>0.05). Multivariate conditional logistic regression analysis found that BE<-5 mmol/L in the initial blood gas analysis after birth (OR=1.986, 95.0%CI:1.039-3.796), mechanical ventilation (OR=2.913, 95%CI:1.390-6.101), weight gain≤10 g/d in the second week (OR=2.303, 95%CI:1.164-4.558) were risk factors, while number of previous pregnancies≥1 times (OR=0.426, 95%CI:0.229-0.792) was a protective factor for PV-IVH. Conclusions The risk factors of PV-IVH in preterm infants include the lower BE value in the initial blood gas analysis, required mechanical ventilation, and less weight gain in the second week.

Objective We aimed to assess the sedative effects by intravenous injection of fentanyl on neonates with mechanical ventilation. Methods We divided 142 neonates with mechanical ventilation into the observation group (92 cases) and the control group (50 cases). The observation group received intravenous injection of fentanyl, while the control group was given no sedative medication. The pain and sedation was assessed before ventilation, 1 and 2 hours after ventilation and later every 4 hours by adoption of NPASS evaluation inventory. Results The scores of pain at different time points 2 hours after medication in the observation group were lower than those in the control group, especially 24 hours after medication. The mean airway pressure and oxygen concentration required by the observation group was lower than those of the control group. But no difference was seen in blood oxygen saturation between the two groups. Conclusions Intravenous injection of fentanyl was proper in the application of sedative treatment for neonates with mechanical ventilation. N-PASS inventory could effectively assess the pain and sedation condition and ensure the safe medication.

Objective To investigate the effect on incidence of ventilator associated pneumonia(VAP),the cost of hospitalization with closed endotracheal suctioning and vital sign as well in postoperative cardiac patients.Methods 304 postoperative cardiac patients supporting by ventilation were enrolled in this cohort study during January,2012-November,2013 in The Second affiliated Hospital& Yuying Children Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University.All the subjects were randomly divided into observational group and control group by coin side.Closed endotracheal suctioning system was applied in observation group and opened mode was applied in control group.Compare the vital sign(heart rate,blood pressure,saturation) at the moment of aspiration,suction time,incidence of VAP,duration of ventilation,mortality,the cost of suction,hospital stays and hospitalization expense.Results The baseline is no significant difference between two groups.The fluctuation of blood pressure and heart rate is lower in observational group at 30 second since completed the suction(P ＜0.05),but saturation is higher at 30 second and 60 second since completed the suction respectively(P ＜ 0.05).There is no significant difference of incidence of unexpected tube displacement and pneumothorax between two groups.Average time of each suction of experimental groups is shorter than Control groups[(156 ± 6) s vs (225 ± 8) s,t =-84.86,P ＜ 0.01].VAP incidence is lower in experimental group (12.0％ vs.18.6％,x2 =4.37,P ＜ 0.05).Duration of ventilation is lower in experimental group[(72 ± 33) h vs.(98 ± 38) h,t =-6.35,P ＜ 0.05].The cost of suction is higher in observational group [(346 ± 15) RMB vs.(178 ± 26) RMB,t =69.00,P ＜ 0.01],but the hospitalization expense is lower in experimental group [(32 011 ± 2 525) yuan vs.(35 264 ± 3 846)yuan,t =-8.72,P ＜ 0.05].There is no significant difference in mortality between two groups (x2 =0.08,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Application of closed endotracheal suction system can result in reduction vital sign fluctuation and incidence of cross infection and reducing the workload of nurses and decreasing the complication of suction,shorting the duration of ventilation and hospitalization and saving the expense of hospitalization in postoperative cardiac patients comparing with open mode.It is worthy to be populized in cardiac care unit.

Objective:To investigate the mechanism of overexpression of miR-320e in inhibiting inflammatory response of re-spiratory syncytial virus(RSV)infected bronchial epithelial cells.Methods:Human bronchial epithelial cells 16HBE were cultured in vitro and infected with RSV,and cells were divided into Con group,RSV group,RSV+miR-NC group,RSV+miR-320e group,RSV+miR-320e+vector group,RSV+miR-320e+TLR4 group.RT-qPCR was used to detect expression levels of miR-320e and TLR4 mRNA;MTT to detect cell proliferation changes;flow cytometry to detect cell apoptosis;Western blot was used to detect Bcl-2,Bax,TLR4,IκBα,p-IκBα,NF-κB and p-NF-κB protein expressions;ELISA to detect TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1β and IFN-α,IFN-β expres-sions;dual luciferase experiment to verify the tageting relationship between miR-320e and TLR4.Results:Compared with Con group,miR-320e expression level,survival rate,Bcl-2 and IκBα protein expressions were significantly reduced,apoptosis rate,Bax protein expression,TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1β and IFN-α,IFN-β expressions,TLR4 mRNA and protein expression,and p-IκBα protein expres-sion and p-NF-κB/NF-κB were increased significantly in RSV group.Compared with RSV+miR-NC group,miR-320e expression level,survival rate,IFN-α,IFN-β expressions,Bcl-2 and IκBα protein expressions were significantly increased,apoptosis rate,Bax pro-tein expression,TNF-α,IL-6,IL-1β expressions,TLR4 mRNA and protein expression,and p-IκBα protein expression and p-NF-κB/NF-κB in RSV+miR-320e group were significantly reduced.miR-320e targets and negatively regulates the expression of TLR4.Up-regulation of TLR4 can partially restore the effect of overexpression of miR-320e on apoptosis and inflammatory response of RSV-infected bronchial epithelial cells 16HBE.Conclusion:miR-320e inhibits 16HBE apoptosis and inflammation in RSV-infected bronchial epi-thelial cells by targeting and negatively regulating TLR4 expression.

Objective:To study the changes and influencing factors of splanchnic regional saturation before and after feeding in preterm infants with feeding intolerance (FI).Methods:From December 2018 to August 2019, preterm infants with FI admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit of our hospital within 24 hours after birth were prospectively enrolled in this same-patient before-after study. Splanchnic regional saturation (rSsO 2) and cerebral regional oxygenation (rSc0 2) 5 minutes before feeding and 1 hour after feeding were monitored using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS). The average values of rScO 2, rSsO 2 and splanchnic-cerebral oxygenation ratio (SCOR) before and after feeding were calculated. The clinical data including postnatal age, corrected gestational age and feeding methods (breastfeeding or formula feeding) were collected. Single-factor correlation analysis and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the influencing factors of rSsO 2 before and after feeding. Results:A total of 41 preterm infants were included. No significant differences existed in rSsO 2, rScO 2 and SCOR before and after feeding ( P>0.05). The feeding methods showed relative prominent influences on the changes of rSsO 2 and SCOR before and after feeding. The breastfeeding infants had smaller changes of rSsO 2 and SCOR before and after feeding compared with formula feeding infants, the regression equations were Y=5.538-4.065X (model complex correlation coefficient was 0.414 determination coefficient R2=0.171, F=8.050, P<0.01) and Y=0.109-0.075X (model complex correlation coefficient was 0.405 determination coefficient R=0.1642, F=7.655, P<0.01). Conclusions:Proper feeding will not increase rSsO 2 in preterm infants with FI. Comparing with formula feeding infants, breastfeeding infants has more stable post-feeding rSsO 2.Breastfeeding should be the first choice for preterm infants with FI.
