RESUMEN
Objective: To investigate the value of non-invasive ventilation (NIV) combined with high flow nasal cannula oxygen therapy (HFNCO) in sequential treatment of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease after mechanical ventilation. Methods: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with acute exacerbation (AECOPD) patients with invasive mechanical ventilation (MV) and successful withdrawal admitted into Huxi Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical College from January 2018 to December 2019 were enrolled for perspective study. The patients were divided into treatment group (n=40) and control group (n=33) by random number table method. The treatment group was given NIV and HFNCO, the control group was given NIV treatment alone. Bedside ultrasound was used to measure the patients' diaphragmatic motion, and the differences between the two groups of patients before treatment, 24, 48 and 72 h after treatment were compared in diaphragmatic excursions during quiet breathing (DEq), diaphragmatic excursions during deep breathing(DEd), diaphragmatic shallow fast breathing index (D-RSBI), arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO(2)), arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO(2)), re-tracheal intubation rate, mortality rate for 28 days and average duration of NPPV treatment within 3 days. Results: There were no statistically significant differences in DEq, DEd, D-RSBI, PaO(2) and PaCO(2) between the two groups before treatment (all P>0.05). After 24 h treatment, DEd decreased in both groups, D-RSBI increased in both groups, However, D-RSBI [(1.33±0.56) vs (1.62±0.59) times·min(-1)·mm(-1)] in the treatment group was significantly lower than the control group, P=0.034. After 72 h treatment, DEd [(41.4±8.1) vs (37.8±6.0) mm] was significantly higher than the control group, D-RSBI [(1.02±0.27) vs (1.22±0.43) times·min(-1)·mm(-1)] was significantly lower than the control group (all P<0.05). The average duration of NIV treatment time [(7.5±1.2) vs (9.3±2.6) h] in the treatment group was significantly shorter than that in the control group (P<0.01). There were no statistically significant differences in PaO(2), PCO(2), re-tracheal intubation rate and the mortality rate of 28 days. Conclusion: NIV combined with HFNCO sequential therapy can effectively relieve diaphragm fatigue and promote recovery of respiratory muscle strength, and it's better than NIV alone.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the safety and effectiveness of the application of high-volume hemofiltration (HVHF) in children with sepsis combined with acute kidney injury. PATIENTS AND METHODS: A total of 76 child patients were enrolled and randomly divided equally (n=38) into control and the observation groups respectively. The control group received conventional volume hemofiltration (the ultrafiltration rate of 35-50 ml/kg/h), and the observation group received HVHF (50-100 ml/kg/h). RESULTS: The serum Interleukin-6 (IL-6), Tumor Necrosis Factor-a (TNF-α) and creatinine levels were significantly lower in the observation group than the control group at 6 h, 12 h, 24 h and 48 h of hemofiltration (p<0.05). The efficacy rate of treatment was improved. The mortality rate and incidence rate of complications were decreased, and the treatment course was significantly shortened (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The application of HVHF in children with sepsis combined with acute kidney injury has a better safety and effectiveness.

Several preclinical studies have reported the rapid antidepressant effects of N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antagonists, although the underlying mechanisms are still unclear. Death-associated protein kinase 1 (DAPK1) couples GluN2B subunits at extrasynaptic sites to regulate NMDAR channel conductance. In the present study, we found that chronic unpredictable stress (CUS) induced extracellular glutamate accumulation, accompanied by an increase in the DAPK1-NMDAR interaction, the high expression of DAPK1 and phosphorylated GluN2B at Ser1303, a decrease in phosphorylated DAPK1 at Ser308 and synaptic protein deficits in the rat medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). CUS also enhanced GluN2B-mediated NMDA currents and extrasynaptic responses that were induced by bursts of high-frequency stimulation, which may be associated with the loss of astrocytes and low expression of glutamate transporter-1 (GLT-1). The blockade of GLT-1 in the mPFC was sufficient to induce depressive-like behavior and cause similar molecular changes. Selective GluN2B antagonist, DAPK1 knockdown by adeno-associated virus-mediated short-hairpin RNA or a pharmacological inhibitor, and the uncoupling of DAPK1 from the NMDAR GluN2B subunit produced rapid antidepressant-like effects and reversed CUS-induced alterations in the mPFC. The inhibition of DAPK1 and its interaction with GluN2B subunit in the mPFC also rescued CUS-induced depressive-like behavior 7 days after treatment. A selective GluN2B antagonist did not have rewarding effects in the conditioned place preference paradigm. Altogether, our findings suggest that the DAPK1 interaction with the NMDAR GluN2B subunit acts as a critical component in the pathophysiology of depression and is a potential target for new antidepressant treatments.
