Objective To explore the occurrence of diaphragmatic muscle fatigue(DMF) in children with pneumonia and its relationship with respiratory failure.Methods One hundred and twenty-six cases of pneumonia(pneumonia group) and 60 healthy children(healthy control group) were selected,and 2K-V1 type intelligence electric impedance respirograph was used to measure diaphragmatic function of the children in both groups to find if the ribcage-abdomen motion was synchronic and to calculate M levels.The abdomen impedance values as X-axis were calculated,which were regarded,and the chest impedance values as Y-axis were calcaulated,which described two-dimensional chart of ribcage-abdomen motion curve and the ? angle which was between connection of maximum X value to the smallest X value and the X-axis were calculated.According to the changes of chest-abdominal curve in one-dimensional chart and the changes of M value and ? angle,the degree of the diaphragmatic muscle fatigue was judged.Results There were 98 cases of DMF in the 126 children with pneumonia,and 68 cases of which were type Ⅰ DMF,and 30 cases were type Ⅱ DMF.One-dimensional chart showed contradictory chest-abdominal respiratory motional curve,and two-dimensional chart moved in a clockwise direction.M value was(46.1?8.4)%,? angle was(136.7?12.0) degrees in children with type Ⅰ DMF;One-dimensional chart showed that the peak value of chest-abdominal respiratory motional curve dislocates,and two-dimensional chart moved in a counter-clockwise direction.M value was(17.2 ? 3.2)%,? angle was(48.2 ? 9.5) degrees in children with type Ⅱ DMF;the control group had M value(4.3 ? 1.0)%,? angle was(31.7 ? 5.2) degree.There were significant differences in M value and ? angle between type Ⅰ DMF children,type Ⅱ DMF children and healthy children(Pa

Objective To explore the relationship between dysfunctional beliefs and attitudes on sleep and sleep disturbances before and after a short-term pharmacotherapy in patients with major depression. Methods Sixty-six (29 male, 37 female, 34.0±9.5 years old) patients with major depression were recruited before the treatment. Dysfunctional Beliefs and Attitudes about Sleep (DBAS) questionnaire, Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI), Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS), and Hamilton Anxiety Scale (HAMA) were assessed before and after a 4-week antidepressant treatment. Results After the 4-week antidepressant treatment, depressive and anxiety symptoms were alleviated significantly, whereas sleep disturbance still persisted. And sleep quality was closely related with problematic sleep beliefs after the treatment.Conclusion Some evidences are provided for cognitive behavioral therapy during antidepressant therapy, and the therapy should be matched with problematic beliefs and attitudes.

Objective To investigate the influence of oral intake of goop before oral intestinal cleaning drugs on blood glucose,cleansing effect and tolerance of patients.Methods 88 patients who were prepared for intestinal examination or bowel treatment with enteroscope were randomly divided into the food-intake group (group A) and the fasting group (group B) with 44 cases in each group.Group A was given goop 2.5 hours before oral intake of intestinal cleansing drugs,group B fasted before oral intake of intestinal cleansing drugs.Blood glucose was monitored before as well as 6 hours after oral intake of intestinal cleansing drugs.Intestinal cleansing effect was evaluated during intestinal examination or bowel treatment with enteroscope.Cases of patients who ceased intestinal examination or bowel treatment with enteroscope due to intolerance were summarized.The blood glucose,cleansing effect and tolerance of patients were compared between two groups.Results There was significant difference in blood glucose between the two groups before and after oral intake of intestinal cleansing drugs.The cleansing effect showed no significant difference,but the difference of tolerance between two groups was significant.Conclusions Intake of goop 2.5 hours before oral intake of intestinal cleansing drugs does not affects intestinal cleansing effect,and it can obviously increase the blood sugar,improve tolerance of patients,thus ensure the smooth completion of intestinal examination or bowel treatment with enteroscope.
