BACKGROUND: In the management of critically ill patients, the assessment of volume responsiveness and the decision to administer a fluid bolus constitute a common dilemma for physicians. Static indices of cardiac preload are poor predictors of volume responsiveness. Passive leg raising (PLR) mimics an endogenous volume expansion (VE) that can be used to predict fluid responsiveness. This study was to assess the changes in stroke volume index (SVI) induced by PLR as an indicator of fluid responsiveness in mechanically ventilated patients with severe sepsis. METHODS: This was a prospective study. Thirty-two mechanically ventilated patients with severe sepsis were admitted for VE in ICU of the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhejiang University School of Medicine and Ningbo Medical Treatment Center Lihuili Hospital from May 2010 to December 2011. Patients with non-sinus rhythm or arrhythmia, parturients, and amputation of the lower limbs were excluded. Measurements of SVI were obtained in a semi-recumbent position (baseline) and during PLR by the technique of pulse indicator continuous cardiac output (PiCCO) system prior to VE. Measurements were repeated after VE (500 mL 6％ hydroxyethyl starch infusion within 30 minutes) to classify patients as either volume responders or non-responders based on their changes in stroke volume index (ΔSVI) over 15％. Heart rate (HR), systolic artery blood pressure (ABPs), diastolic artery blood pressure (ABPd), mean arterial blood pressure (ABPm), mean central venous pressure (CVPm) and cardiac index (CI) were compared between the two groups. The changes of ABPs, ABPm, CVPm, and SVI after PLR and VE were compared with the indices at the baseline. The ROC curve was drawn to evaluate the value of ΔSVI and the change of CVPm (ΔCVPm) in predicting volume responsiveness. SPSS 17.0 software was used for statistical analysis. RESULTS: Among the 32 patients, 22 were responders and 10 were non-responders. After PLR among the responders, some hemodynamic variables (including ABPs, ABPd, ABPm and CVPm) were significantly elevated (101.2±17.6 vs.118.6±23.7,P=0.03; 52.8±10.7 vs. 64.8±10.7,P=0.006; 68.3±11.7 vs. 81.9±14.4,P=0.008; 6.8±3.2 vs. 11.9±4.0,P=0.001). After PLR, the area under curve (AUC) and the ROC curve of ΔSVI and ΔCVPm for predicting the responsiveness after VE were 0.882±0.061 (95％CI 0.759–1.000) and 0.805±0.079 (95％CI 0.650–0.959) when the cut-off levels of ΔSVI and ΔCVPm were 8.8％ and 12.7％, the sensitivities were 72.7％ and 72.7％, and the specificities were 80％ and 80％. CONCLUSION: Changes in ΔSVI and ΔCVPm induced by PLR are accurate indices for predicting fluid responsiveness in mechanically ventilated patients with severe sepsis.

Aim.To elucidate whether an inhibited superoxide production(O2-) of neutrophils induced by commercial lactate-based peritoneal dialysates(PDS)could be corrected after a transient intracellular acidosis.Methods.The intracellular pH([pHi])of human neutrophils incubatd in PDS was monitored with a spectrofluorometer with a pH-sensitive dye (BCECF-AM). Neutrophilic O2- stimulated by zymosan was determined in PDS with the superoxide dismutase inhibitable ferricytochrome c reduction,using a spectrophotometer.Results.The severe intracellular acidosis induced within 5 min by PDS at an extracellular pH of 5.2 could be promptly and completely recovered by a neutralization of the pH of media.However,O2- by neutrophils exposed to the PDS for as little as 5 min was drastically and persistently inhibited，even the acidic [pHi]of cells had been fully returned for 1h.Conclusions.The intracellular acidification of cells in the initial phase could be transient and reversible,but impaired cell functions，at least in part including O2- generating system,might be consistent and irreversible in the early stage of the cellular acidosis in the peritoneal cavity of CAPD patients.The findings above may be of particular importance in both clinic and cell biology.

ObjectiveTo explore the clinical feature of severe hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) in pediatric patients, and to observe the hemodynamic changes in those with acute pulmonary edema.Methods A prospective observation study was conducted. Thirty-five severe HFMD pediatric patients with acute pulmonary edema admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) and Department of Pediatric of First People's Hospital of Foshan from May 2008 to September 2014 were enrolled. The clinical features were thoroughly investigated. Hemodynamic data were monitored by pulse-indicated continuous cardiac output (PiCCO) in 5 cases, and the changes in PiCCO parameters were observed at ICU admission (0 hour), and 24, 48, 96 hours after treatment.Results Thirty-five patients who met the diagnostic standard of severe HFMD were enrolled, including 22 male and 13 female, aged from 7 months to 4 years. Six patients were younger than 1 year, 13 1-2 years, 12 2-3 years, and 4 patients 3-4 years old. The most common time of occurrence of pulmonary edema was 3-4 days after the onset of the disease. Fever and central nervous system symptoms were found in all the patients, and examination of the cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) revealed non-bacterial inflammatory changes. PiCCO results showed a tendency of lowering of heart rate (HR), systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI), and extravascular lung water index (EVLWI) after the treatment, and the values obtained at 96 hours were significantly lower than those at 0 hour [HR (bpm): 119.0±14.7 vs. 200.8±19.7, SVRI (kPa·s·L-1·m-2):148.9±14.6 vs. 209.6±58.7, EVLWI (mL/kg): 10.5±1.9 vs. 34.8±10.8,P< 0.05 orP< 0.01], global end-diastolic volume index (GEDVI) was also gradually decreased without significant differences among all the time points, together with a tendency of increase in stroke volume index (SI) and cardiac index (CI). The values of the parameters at 96 hours were significantly higher than those at 0 hour [SI (mL/m2): 38.5±6.5 vs. 17.4±2.8, CI (mL·s-1·m-2): 75.0±8.0 vs. 55.5±8.5, bothP< 0.01]. Left atrium was found to be enlarged, and left ventricular systolic function decreased in two patients by cardiac ultrasonic. Four out of 35 patients died, and functional disability of extremities was found in 1 patient. Other patients were cured and discharged without any sequelae.Conclusions Severe HFMD complicated by acute pulmonary edema is a perilous condition in children, accompanied commonly by pathologic changes in central nervous system and systolic dysfunction of left ventricle. According to the results with PiCCO monitoring, HFMD patients suffering from acute pulmonary edema may be of cardiac origin in addition to neurogenic origin.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy of thermal electroacupuncture therapy in treating lumbodorsal myofascitis. Method Sixty-two patients with lumbodorsal myofascitis were randomized into a treatment group of 30 cases and a control group of 32 cases. The treatment group was intervened by thermal electroacupuncture therapy, while the control group was by orally taking Meloxicam tablets.

The VAS scores were significantly changed after treatment in both groups (P<0.05). After treatment, the VAS score in the treatment group was significantly different from that in the control group (P<0.05).Conclusion Thermal electroacupuncture therapy is an effective approach in treating lumbodorsal myofascitis.

There were many factors that affect the chimerism of donor DNA, such as the type of disease, the treatment of the disease, the severity of the disease, the source of hematopoietic stem cells, HLA, GVHD, and so on. This paper mainly discussed the two factors that affect forensic science, including the posttransplantation intervals and sensitivity of the detection method. Forensic workers in forensic practice and paternity and individual identification of allo HSCT recipients, should pay attention to the time after transplantation and the detection method of sensitivity of chimerism. When female recipients received HSCT in the case of male donors, Y chromosome DNA of the donor can be detected from the recipient's hair follicles. The case of biological specimens from the crime scene can not only detect Y chromosome speciifc genetic markers, so as to avoid wrong identiifcation.
