ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the efficacy of hemoperfusion treatment in children with acute tetramine poisoning.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Thirty-two children aged from 1 to 8 years ( mean 4.6+/-2.4 years) with acute tetramine poisoning received hemoperfusion treatment. Serum tetramine concentrations were measured by gas chromatography before hemoperfusion, 1 and 2 hrs after hemoperfusion initiation and 12 and 24 hrs by the end of hemoperfusion. The median time for full recovery of consciousness and the time to seizure control were observed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Seventeen children received hemoperfusion treatment for one time, 12 for twice, 2 for 4 times and 1 for 3 times. Twenty- seven (84%) cases recovered, 2 (7%) cases improved and 3 (9%) cases died of multi-organ failure. The serum tetramine concentrations 1 and 2 hrs after hrmoperfusion initiation were significantly lower than those before hemoperfusion (P<0.01). The serum tetramine concentrations 12 and 24 hrs by the end of hemoperfusion were also significantly lower than those before hemoperfusion (P<0.01). The median time for full recovery of consciousness and the time to seizure control were 5.4+/-4.2 and 10.1+/-7.3 hrs, respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Hemoperfusion treatment is effective for acute tetramine poisoning in children.</p>

Objective To explore the clinical effects of aminophylline on bronchiolitis in children.Methods One hundred and twen-ty-eight children with bronchiolitis in our hospital were randomly divided into the experiment and treated control group,in the meantime,and divided into the severe and mild group according to their condition.The children in control group were treated with traditional methods,in experiment group were treated with aminophylline(2 mg/kg,every day one time),as well as used traditional methods.All patients in 2 groups were checked by volume (VT), inhale time and exhale time ratio (Ti/tE),time to peak expiratory flow and expiratory time ratio(tPTEF/Te),time to peak expiratory flow to total expiratory time and volume ratio(vPTEF/vE) respectively. Meanwhile pulmonary function,alkyla-denine glycosylase in trachea secretion,IL-8,cytotaxonomy in trachea secretion on time,after the third day and the 7th day.Their curative effects were evaluated.All parameters were analyzed by statistical methods.Results Cytotaxonomy of the patients in the experiment were more improved than that of control group(P
