Cardiopulmonary arrest is one of the most critical situations,posing a serious threat to life.With the development of medical technology, the rate of return of spontaneous circulation after cardiac arrest has been improved.However, many children suffer from multiple organ dysfunction because of the long hypoxia time from cardioplumonary arrest, so the rate of long-term survival is relatively low and the long-term outcome is still not satisfactory.Therefore, how to make cardiopulmonary resuscitation more effective is the focus of current research.This article reviews the related factors that affect the outcome of resuscitation, providing references for the treatment of cardiopulmonary arrest in children.

Background One of the important machanisms of all trans retinoic acid (ATRA) is to regulate the expression of connexin (Cx) gene.ATRA inhibits the proliferation and differentiation of retinoblastoma (RB) cells,which is related to Cx43.However,the control site of ATRA and its effect on RB tumor in vivo have not been identified.Objective This study was to investigate the effect of ATRA on Cx43 expression in RB cells and its approach mechanisms.Methods ATRA solution of 1 × 10 2 mol/L was prepared with ethanol and formulated into 1×10 5,1×10-6and 1 × 10 7 mol/L of solution with culture medium further.Human RB cell line (HXO-RB44) was cultured and treated with different concentrations of ATRA for 2,4 and 6 days,respectively.The expressions of Cx43 protein and mRNA in RB cells were detected by Western blot and reverse transcription PCR (RT-PCR),respectively.RB models were established by injecting HXO-RB44 cell suspension into anterior chamber in the right eyes of 15 athymic mice.Eleven successful models were divided into the blank control group,negative control group and 1 × 10-5 mol/L ATRA group,and 0.5％ normal saline solution with athymic or 1 ×10-5 mol/L ATRA solution was injected into the anterior chamber in the negative control group and 1 × 10-5 mol/L ATRA group in the 3-day interval for 3 weeks.The model eyes were examined under the slit lamp microscope.The eyeballs were extracted at the end of the experiment for hematoxylin and eosin staining.Results Western blot assay showed that the absorbance values of Cx43 protein (ACx43/AGAPDH) were increased gradually as time lapse of ATRA treatment among the groups (Ftime =71.31,P =0.00; Fgroup =7.66,P =0.00).The expressions of Cx43 protein were significantly higher in the 1 × 10 5 mol/L ATRA group after 2 days,1 × 10-6 mol/L ATRA group after 4 days,1 × 10-7 mol/L ATRA group after 6 days than those in the blank control group at various time points (t =3.34,P＜0.01 ;t =2.33,P＜0.05;t =3.12,P＜ 0.01).RT-PCR showed that the absorbance values of Cx43 mRNA (ACx43mRXA/Aβ-actin) were significantly enhanced as the prolong of treatment time of ATRT among the groups (Ftime =90.90,P =0.00 ; Fgroup =6.86,P =0.00).The expressions of Cx43 mRNA were significantly higher in the 1 × 10-5 mol/L ATRA group after 2 days,1 × 10 6 mol/L ATRA group and 1 ×10-7 mol/L ATRA group after 4 days than those in the blank control group at various time points (t=3.57,P＜0.01 ;t=6.31,P＜0.01 ;t=2.22,P＜0.05).RB models were successfully created in 11 eyes on the 6-9 days following the intrachamber injection of RB cell suspension.The RB cells were filled with chamber in the blank control group 20 days after injection,and RB only occupied half of the anterior chamber in the 1 × 10-5 mol/L ATRA group.Histopathological examination exhibited that the RB cells were seen in the anterior and posterior chamber as well as vitreous in the blank control group,however,the cells were only found in the anterior chamber in the 1 × 10 5 mol/L ATRA group.Conclusions ATRA can inhibit the growth of RB in vitro and in vivo by inducing the expression of Cx43 gene in transcription process.

Objective To examine the academic emotions and its relationship with academic self-efficacy among secondary special school students. Methods 352 secondary special school students were collected as the subjects.All subjects were tested with academic emotions questionnaire and academic self-efficacy questionnaire and analyzed the result of the test by multivariate analysis of variance,correlation analysis and linear regression analysis. Results Scores on enjoyment,anxiety,anger,depression,total scores on positive-high arousal academic emotions and negative-high arousal academic emotions of secondary special school girls(27.88±3.84,24.77±5.03,18.03±3.37,18.14±3.65,59.33±7.98,57.48±10.49,respectively)were higher than those of boys(26.41±4.55,22.38±5.71,17.01±3.91,16.07±3.94,57.46±9.20,53.45±11.76,respectively),(P<0.05).The academic emotions' differences among different grades of secondary special school students were not significant(F-(1,348)=1.275,P=0.226).The interaction of gender and grade on academic emotions was not significant(F-(1,348)=1.057,P=0.397).Academic emotions and academic self-efficacy was interrelated(r=-0.513～0.685).The result of multiple regression analysis showed that each factor of academic self-efficacy played a significant predictor role on academic emotions(β=-0.631～0.462,P<0.01). Conclusion The academic emotions' differences between secondary special school boys and girls are significant. Academic self-efficacy is closely related to academic emotions.

Objective To evaluate left atrial function by velocity vector imaging (VVI) in patients with rheumatic mitral stenosis(RMS). Methods Thirty eight patients with RMS and 42 normal controls were studied with VVI analysis software. Peak systolic strain (S), systolic strain rate(SRs), early diastolic strain rate(SRe) and late diastolic strain rate(SRa) of each left atrial segments were measured,and also the SRa peak time delay(Td-SRa). Results Comparing to the controls group, the S, SRs and SRe of all segments were significantly lower(P<0.05). Except the base latero-aorta's SRa, the other segments' SRa were lower (P<0.05). In patients with atrial fibrillation(AF),56% segments had no SRa,and 18.6% had irregular low amplitude movement at late diastole, while 25.4% had discernible positive peak. The base and middle inferior SRa of patients with AF were lower (P<0.05 ) than those of the patients with sinus rhythm. While the Td-SRa of patients was longer than that of control group,especially what of the patients with AF. Conclusions The segmental and globe left atrial function of patients with RMS can be evaluated with VVI.

Objective To assess global systolic function of left ventricle (LV) using speckle tracking echocardiography in patients who are left volumetric overload and to establish the correlativity between strain and left ventricle end-diastolic volume index (LVEDVI). Methods Seventy-seven patients who were left volumetric overload and 30 normal volunteers were enrolled in this study. Respective 3 high frame rate (＞ 100 frames/s) 2D images were recorded from the left ventricular short axis views: the levels of mitral valve annulus, papillary muscle and apex. Three global peak systolic radical strain and strain rate were measured using 2D strain imagirg. LVEDV was obtained by two-plane Simpson method and LVEDVI was obtained by normalized LVEDV with surface body area. Patients were divided into 6 groups: transitionalgroup,group A (LVEDVI:90- 120 ml/m2),group B (LVEDVI: 121 - 150 ml/m2 ),group C (LVEDVI:151 -180 ml/m2),group D (LVEDVI: 181 - 210 ml/m2),and group E (LVEDVI＞210 ml/m2). Patients were divided into two groups by left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF): group Ⅰ (LVEF≥ 50 % ), group Ⅱ (LVEF＜50％). Results①Compared with normal control group,GRS,GRSr in transitional group showed no change at three short axis levels (P ＞0.05). The above parameters in group A, B and C were significantly higher than those in normal control group( P ＜0. 01 ). In transitional group,group A,B and C,GRS, GRSr of three short axis gradually increased with LVEDVI augmentation. Compared with group A, B,C,D and normal control group,the above parameters of 3 short aixs in group E were decreased( P ＜0. 01 ),which gradually decreased in group C, D, E with LVEDVI augmentation. ②GRS,GRSr of 3 short axis views in group Ⅰ were more significantly high than those in group Ⅱ and normal control group. The parameters above were significantly low in group Ⅱ ( P ＜0.01). ③In group A,B,C,GRS of papillary muscle and apex levels were correlated positively to LVEDVI ( rpapillary muscle = 0.55,0.64,0.76 and rspex = 0. 74, 0. 79,0.71,P ＜0.05) ; In group D, there was no correlativity between GRS of papillary muscle and LVEDVI( r =- 0.35, P ＞ 0.05) while negative correlativity was established in apex level( r = - 0.73, P ＜ 0. 05). In group E,the negative correlativity was found between GRS of papillary muscle and LVEDVI( r = -0. 70,P ＜0.05) while no correlativity was established in apex level( r = - 0.39, P ＞0. 05). GRS of mitral valve annulus was correlated positively to LVEDVI in group A, B( r = 0.79, 0.77, P ＜ 0.05) and had no correlativity in group C,D. The negative correlativity between them was found in group E( r = - 0. 54, P ＜0.05). At LVEDVI: 180- 190 ml/m2 ,GRS of papillary muscle and apex level reach the peak point about 93% and 62% ;GRS of mitral valve annulus level reach the peak about 63% at LVEDVI 150 - 160 ml/m2.Conclusions Radial strain,strain rate change periodically with LV volume overload. Wall motion of left ventricle can be evaluated accurately by speckle tracking echocardiography, which provide useful modality for evaluation cardiac systolic function.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of neo-adjuvant chemotherapy in the treatment of cervical cancer. Methods A total of 32 patients,of which 12 cases of Ⅰ b2,8 cases of Ⅱ a,5 case of Ⅱ b and 7 cases of Ⅲ, were all treated with 2 - 3 cycles of PF chemotherapy before treatment with cisplatin 100 mg/m2, d 1;5-fluorouracil 1000 mg/m2 ,d1-5. The chemotherapy was performed for 3 weeks followed by three weeks rest as one cycle. Results Short-term effect was 81.3% (26/32), with 3 cases of Ⅰ b2 and 1 cases of Ⅱ a had been completely relieved after 2 - 3 cycles of chemotherapies. Simultaneously, chemotherapy improved the removal rate of surgery. Among these 32 patients, there were 4 cases achieved complete response (CR) ,22 cases achieved partial response (PR) ,5 case of stable disease ( SD), 1 cases of progressive disease(PD). The overall response rate( CR +PR) was 81.3% (26/32) ,and the control rate ( CR + PR + SD) was 96. 9% (31/32). The main adverse events included myelosuppression and gastrointestinal response, which were all tolerable. Conclusions The neo-adjuvant chemotherapy reduced the size of cancer,which can improve removal rate of surgery and the quality of life.
