Objective To study the therapeutic and protective effect of low tidal volume(LTV) ventilation in children with acute respiratory failure.Methods Forty-eight patients with respiratory failure were enrolled in our study.The patients were suffered from severe infection,trauma or after major operation.Besides general treatments,they were all given ventilation with LTV.Blood gas,ventilation parameters and complications related to ventilation were also measured.Results No significant difference was found between the patients with high tidal volume(HTV) and those with LTV in the results of improving respiratory acidosis.But the incidence of(ventilated-)induced lung injury(VILI) was lower in LTV patients.Conclusion LTV ventilation is preferable for children with acute respiratory failure and beneficial for alleviation of VILI.

As seculars,we often feel unhappy,and it seems all of our unhappiness comes from almost every aspect of life,which is unable to escape.Russell′s view of happiness dug out the root of unhappiness from human nature,and tells us happiness could be obtained by expending one′s interests and necessarily giving away something in life.Russell′s great wisdom opens a door for us to the road of happiness.

Objective To recognize the developments and achievements of the clinical neuropathology in China from 1955 to 2009.Methods Retrospective survey of literatures related clinical neuropathology published in Chinese Journal of Neurology (CJN) from the first issue in 1955 to the No.12 issue in 2009 was conducted; Total literatures of CJN and literatures of the clinical neuropathology were respectively counted and the percentage of the latter was analyzed in different periods; Proportion of autopsy and biopsy literatures was also analyzed.According to categories of nervous system diseases,their relative percentages were respectively counted.The percentages of clinical neuropathological literatures and autopsy literatures of CJN were compared with the data of the same period of J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry (JNNP).Results (1) The percentages of clinical neuropathological literatures in total literatures of CJN were 18.11％ (65/359),20.81％ (103/495),17.05％ (22/129),15.50％ (230/1484),11.58％ (176/1520) and 16.04％ (309/1927),respectively,in 1955-1959,1960-1969,1970-1979,1980-1989,1990-1999,2000-2009.The percentage variation trend in different periods from 1955 to 2009 had significant difference (trend x2 =7.977,P =0.005) ; But there was no significant difference in the variation trend of the percentage of clinical neuropathological literatures between CJN and JNNP from 1955 to 2009.(2) The percentages of autopsy in the total clinical neuropathological literatures of CJN from 1995 to 2009 appeared gradually to decline; Compared with JNNP,the percentages of autopsy in the total clinical neuropathological literatures of CJN during 1980-2009 were lower,and there was significant difference in the variation trend of the percentage of autopsy in the total clinical neuropathological literatures between CJN and JNNP.(3) The main types of neurological diseases in the neuropathological literatures were tumors,infectious diseases and cerebrovascular diseases from 1955 to 1989,while myopathies became the most main disease type during 1990-2009; Compared with the same period JNNP,the clinical neuropathological literatures of the rare and difficult diseases and neurodegenerative diseases in CJN were relatively less.Conclusions Neuropathology is important in the clinical neuroscience research.From 1955 to 2009,main achievements of clinical neuropathological researches in China mainland lie in tumors,cerebrovascular diseases,infectious diseases and myopathies.But in recent years,due to the lack of autopsy cases,it is to the disadvantage of exploring pathogenesis of neurodegenerative diseases and understanding some rare and difficult diseases.

Obstructive sleep disordered breathing (USDB) is a common diseases which caused by upper airway(UA) occlusion, muscle tone problems and collapse of upper airway etc. The article introduces how to select surgical treatment protocol. First, it is necessary of PSG and upper airway evaluation. Then, it is key to master surgical indications. For the children with hypertrophy of tonsillectomy or adenoidectomy, it may first step of tonsillectomy or adenoidectomy, they needed followed up by orthodontic doctor or orthognathic surgeon for tooth and maxillomandibular malformation. For the adult OSDB patients, there are two method, soft tissue reduction/mass excision around UA or maxillomandibular advancement(MMA), and MMA is recommended to the patients such as failure from UPPP and other surgical treatment, but for severe obesity patients, bariatric surgery is commended, it is very effective for soft tissue reduction around UA and weigh loss. For the OSDB patients with craniaomaxillomandibular deformities, such as craniosynostosis syndrome/micrognathia. Finally, it is important of the UA management for the surgical patients around perioperative period. All in all, it is necessary of the multidisciplinary cooperation for the OSDB patients, surgical treatment is useful method but it is not commend to all OSDB patients.

Protective effects of acupuncture on myocardial ischemia in each stage have been confirmed increasingly, while there was no in-depth research in terms of histone modifications. Histone modification is an important part of epigenetics. It is also the focus of molecular biology and basic medical research. In this paper, the relationship of histone modifications and gene expression of heart was first explained. Then, the recent research progress of modified histones, which was the direct alteration of gene expression induced by histone modifications on the degree and prognosis of myocardial ischemic injury, was reviewed. This investigation introduced epigenetic regulation in the protection mechanism of myocardial ischemia by acupuncture. It provided new ideas and directions for the study of molecular mechanism of acupuncture efficacy.

Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) exist in the tumor microenvironment,and can be affected by various anticancer treatments and further affect tumor progression.Increasing evidence suggests that many of the clinical antitumor measures can play a unique and effective antitumor effect by regulating the recruitment,polarization and related pro-tumor behavior of macrophages in the tumor microenvironment.Now,tumor microenvironment immune remodeling has become a hot spot in the research of anti-tumor therapy.This paper reviews the related research progress on antitumor effects of TAMs as an therapeutic target.

Hair follicle stem cells located bulge region of hair follicle,had characteristics of all adult stem cells,including slow-cycling,undifferentiated.They also had the abilities of self-renew and proliferation in vitro.CD34,K15,K19 and Nestin might be the makers of the hair follicle stem cells.They could be induced to differentiate to neurons,glial cells,keratinocytes,smooth muscle cells,melanocytes In vitro and neurons,melanocytes in vivo.There were many signals in regulating the hair follicle stem cells involved Wnt signal,BM Psignal and NFATc1 etc.

Background and purpose:The ovarian mucinous tumor is one of the major subtypes of the ovari-an epithelial cancer. Ubiquitination is one of the main post-translational modifications, which has proven to be involved in tumorigenicity. Deubiquitinase is the protein enzyme that could reverse the process of ubiquitination to affect the initiation and progression of malignancies. This study aimed to analyze the expression and clinical application of deubiquitinase OTUB1 (OTU deubiquitinase, ubiquitin aldehyde binding 1) in ovarian primary mucinous tumors. Methods:This study collected 90 cases of ovarian primary mucinous tumors during 2010-2015 in Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University, and then collected the clinicopathological information and performed the immunochemistry.Results:Fourteen out of 90 cases were ovarian primary mucinous cystadenoma, 17 were borderline mucinous tumor (intestinal type and intraepithelial carcinoma), and 59 were ovarian primary mucinous carcinoma. The expression rate and intensity of OTUB1 were much higher in malignant cases than those in benign ones (P<0.05). The expression rate and intensity of OTUB1 were much higher in cases with mucinous intraepithelial carcinoma than those in cases with intestinal type borderline mucinous tumor (P<0.05). The expression rate and intensity of OTUB1 increased with the advance of FIGO staging (P<0.05). The expression rate and intensity of OTUB1 were much higher in cases with involved fallopian tubes than those in cases without involved fallopian tubes (P<0.05). The expression rate and intensity of OTUB1were much higher in cases with involved uterus and omentum than those in cases with-out involvement (P<0.05). The expression rate and intensity of OTUB1were much higher in cases with lymph node metastasis than those in cases without involvement (P<0.05).Conclusion:There is significant difference in OTUB1 expression between ovarian primary mucinous carcinoma and benign mucinous cystadenoma. It is highly correlated to FIGO staging and invasion and metastasis of tumor. OTUB1 could be used in differential diagnosis and in monitoring the tumor initiation and progression in ovarian mucinous carcinoma.
