ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the role of family centered cognitive intervention in neonatal nursing. Methods According to the random number table method,100 newborns were randomly divided into observation group and control group,50 cases in each group. The two groups received routine health education,and the observation group received the family centered cognitive intervention. After the intervention, the neonatal physical development status (body weight,height,head circumference) and neonatal disease status of the two groups were analyzed. The active muscle tension, passive muscle tension, primitive reflexes, behavior ability, general evaluation and neonatal behavioral neurological assessment score ( NBNA score ) were evaluated and analyzed. Results The body weight [(4753.88±434.59)g],length[(55.16±1.17)cm],headcircumference[(37.34±0.51)cm]after1month discharge of the observation group were better than those of the control group[(4295. 78 ± 344. 63) g,(52. 25 ± 0.58)cm,(35.67 ±0.21)cm],the differences between the two groups were statistically significant(t =2.564, 6. 235,8. 679,all P<0. 05). The incidence rate of born disease of the observation group was 14. 00%,which of the control group was 32. 00%,there was statistically significant difference between the two groups(χ2 =4. 574,P <0. 01). The active muscle tension,passive muscle tension,behavior ability,original reflection,the general evaluation and NBNA scores of the observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group, the differences were statistically significant(all P<0. 01). Conclusion Family centered intervention can significantly improve the growth status of newborn infants,reduce the incidence of the disease,it is beneficial to improve the patients' neurological behavior,it is worthy of wide application.

ABSTRACT
The efficacy of growth hormone (GH) treatment in short children with small for gestational age (SGA) was evaluated and the association of serum insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF) and IGF-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) levels with height increments was investigated.Fifty-five short children with SGA in our hospital from Sep 2009 to Sep 2013 were collected.Before GH treatment, insulin and arginine stimulation test were performed.The children were treated with recombinant GH with 0.15 U · kg-1 · d-1 for at least 12 months.After GH treatment, the height was (120.5 ± 17.63) cm, height SDS was (-1.53 ± 1.04) SDS, HtSDS was-2.04 ± 0.47, bone age was (6.19 ± 2.34) year, growth velocity was (7.24 ± 1.19) cm/year, all these parameters were significant higher than those before GH treatment.Pre-treatment serum levels of IGF-Ⅰ and IGFBP-3 were negatively correlated with post treatment growth velocity(r =-0.37 and r =-0.31;P =0.004 and P =0.021).GH treatment could effectively improve the height of short children with SGA.Children with lower pre-treatment serum levels of IGF-Ⅰ and IGFBP-3 may reach the higher growth velocity.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the changes of serum IGF-I,VEGF levels in premature infants,and to dis-cuss the predicting values for the development of ROP;Methods Preterm infants admitted into those whose birth weight ( BW)≤1 500g and ( or) gestational age ( GA)≤31 weeks joined in ROP-screen,and those who were diag-nosed as ROP according to ICROP were included into ROP group.In the same time,those who didn't develop ROP were divided into the control group.Serum IGF-I,VEGF were measured one week from their birth or correct gestational age of 31 weeks.Serum IGF-I, VEGF were evaluated with ELISA method.Results The concentration of IGF-I, VEGF:Group ROP[(20.65 ±11.11)μg/L,(195.61 ±105.98)ng/L] were all significantly lower than the control group [(42.86 ±18.72)μg/L,(363.59 ±101.08)ng/L](all P<0.01).There were significant different of birth weight[ROP group (1 229.69 ±232.37)g,the control group (1 401.32 ±171.78)g;t=4.144)],GM[ROP group (3.20 ±1.23)mmol/L,the control group (3.70 ±1.17)mmol/L;t=2.082],the time of oxygen inhaling[ROP group (32 ±22)d,the control group (21 ±12)d;t=-2.856],oxygen inhalation mode(the percentage of mechanical ventilation)[ROP group 33/48(68.8%),the control group 16/50(32.0%);χ2 =16.363] and fertilization way(the percentage of test tube baby)[ROP group 13/48(27.1%),the control group 4/50(8.0%);χ2 =6.262] between ROP and control group (all P<0.05).Conclusion The low serum IGF-I(<28.08μg/L),VEGF(<232.89ng/L) of a premature in the first week or correct gestational age of 31 weeks and (or)BW≤1 500g would probably suggest the development of ROP.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effect of minimal enteral nutrition on the immune system of newborn infants under mechanical ventilation (MV) with intratracheal intubation.Methods Eighty-one patients under MV with intratracheal intubation were divided into two groups:treatment group and control group.Forty patients in treatmet group accepted early minimal enteral nutrition,while other 41 patients in control group accepted normal feeding,then T-lymphocytes (CD3,CD4,CD8),CD4/CD8,immunoglobulins (IgG,IgA,IgM),occurane of secondary infection,time of beginning fully enteral feeding,occurance of abdominal distension were recorded.Results There were no significant differences of T-lymphocytes (CD3,CD4,CD8),CD4/CD8,immunoglobulins (IgG,IgA,IgM) changes between the two groups in which the time of patients beginning MV under intratracheal intubation was less than five days (P ＞ 0.05) ; while comparing patients in the two groups whose MV time was equal or greater than five days,the changes of T-lymphocytes CD3[(37.3 ± 1.6)％,(42.6 ±2.8)％],CD4[(29.1 ±1.7)％,(34.6 ±2.1)％],CD4/CD8 (17.9 ±1.8,18.9 ± 1.6),immunoglobulins IgA[(55.42 ±3.98) mg/L,(129.00 ±7.76) mg/L],IgM[(130.29 ±10.92) mg/L,(317.33 ± 11.64) mg/L] in treatment group were more significant than those in control group(P ＜0.05) ;furthermore the differences of the secondary infection occurance,the time beginning fully enteral feeding,intravenous nutrition and hospital stays in the treatment group [20％ (8/40),(8.56 ± 1.78) d,(10.56 ± 1.78) d,(12.63 ± 1.73) d] were lower significantly than those in the control group [48.78％ (20/41),(10.20 ± 1.65) d,(12.15 ± 1.69) d,(14.15 ± 1.64) d] (P ＜ 0.05).These were no significant differences on abdominal distension and gastric retention between the treatment group [20％ (8/40),17.5％ (7/40)]and the control group [24.39％ (10/41),19.51％ (8/41)] (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Early minimal enteral nutrition in infants under long time MV with intratracheal intubation could improve immune function recovery,reduce the occurance rate of secondary infection,shorten the time beginning fully enteral feeding,intravenous nutrition and hospital stay.
