ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of 3 different ventilation methods,including conventional mechanical ventilation(CMV),high-frequency oscillatory ventilation(HFOV) and partial liquid ventilation(PLV),on the morphology of type Ⅱ alveolar epithelium cell (ACE Ⅱ) of newborn piglet with acute lung injury (ALI).Methods Twenty-four less than 3-day-old newborn piglets were enrolled.After ALI was established with saline lavage (38 ℃,0.035 L/kg),newborn piglets were randomly assigned to 4 study groups:control group(n =6,no ventilation),CMV group(n =6),HFOV group(n =6),and PLV group(n =6,38 ℃,0.018 L/kg).Piglets in the 4 groups were sacrificed after being ventilated for 24 hours,and the number,area,density of fluorescence of ACE Ⅱ were detected.Results Through 24 hours mechanical ventilation,the numbers of ACE Ⅱ in CMV group,HFOV group and PLV group remained were 30 ± 5,52 ± 5,81 ± 7,respectively,while areas of fluorescence were 340.40 ± 47.50,329.69 ± 124.50,295.55 ± 109.30,respectively,and there were significant differences among the 3 groups,and the population mean of density of fluorescence had significant difference among the 3 groups.The number of ACE Ⅱ remains was lowest in CMV group compared with HFOV group(P =0.026) and PLV group (P =0.000),and the density of fluorescence of ACE Ⅱ was lowest in CMV group compared with HFOV group (P =0.001) and PLV group (P =0.002).Conclusions Different mechanical ventilations have various effects for ACE Ⅱ,and CMV is the most harmful mechanical ventilation on ACE Ⅱ,while PLV is the least harmful.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of 3 different ventilation methods,including conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV),high frequency oscillatory ventilation(HFOV) and partial liquid ventilation (PLV),on the changes of inflammatory factors and pulmonary surfactant associated protein A (SP-A) in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) in newborn piglets with acute lung injury(ALI).Methods Twenty-four newborn piglets,no more than 3 days old,were enrolled.After ALI made with saline lavage(38 ℃,35 mL/kg),newborn piglets were randomly assigned to 4 groups:control group (n =6,no ventilation),CMV group(n =6),HFOV group(n =6),and PLV group(n =6).Piglets were sacrificed after being ventilated for 24 h.Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α),interleukin-8 (IL-8),interleukin-1 (IL-1) and SP-A in BALF were measured quantitatively by using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Results In 3 groups using different ventilation methods,the population mean of TNF-o,IL-8,IL-1 and SP-A were statistically different (all P =0.000).SP-A in PLV group and HFOV group were higher than that in CMV group (all P ＜ 0.05),while IL-8,IL-1 and TNF-α in PLV group were lower than those in CMV group (all P ＜ 0.05),IL-8 and TNF-α in PLV group were lower than those in HFOV group (all P ＜ 0.05),IL-8 and TNF-α in HFOV group were lower than those in CMV group (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Pulmonary inflammatory reaction was different in 3 ventilation groups.Compared with CMV and HFOV,PLV attenuated inflammatory reaction,so it could increase the expression of SP-A and decrease the degradation of SP-A.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the preventive and therapeutic effect of recombinant human interleukin-11(rhIL-11) on thrombocytopenia in children with non-lymphocytic leukemia after chemotherapy.Methods Sixteen children who had non-lymphocytic leukemia were divided into 2 groups by randomization,including a therapeutic group and a control group.RhIL-11[50 ?g/(kg?d)] was injected subcutaneously 24 h after chemiotherapy in the therapeutic group,and applied consecutively 10-14 days,and the control group was treated without RhIL-11.Duration of the thrombocytopenia,infusion of blood platelet,diversity of blood platelets counts and adverse effect were observed of the 2 groups.Differences between groups were examined using statistics analysis.Results There were 16 case-times(59.3%) in the therapeutic group that of could be cured without platelet transfusion,but that of control group only had 3 case-times(14.3%);the diffe-rence between 2 groups was significant(P
