A comparative study of the efficacy and safety of high-flow nasal cannula and nasal continuous positive airway pressure in neonatal respiratory distress syndrome: A protocol for systematic review and meta-analysis

Background:When it comes to preterm newborns, respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) is the most frequent respiratory condition. Despite the fact that it is well acknowledged that preterm delivery plays a significant role, the causes of lung damage are still not completely understood. In newborns with extremely low birth weight and neonatal RDS, nasal continuous positive airway pressure has been suggested as the first respiratory assistance for spontaneous breathing. In the current research, we aim to carry out a meta-analysis to assess the effectiveness and safety of high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) and non-invasive continuous positive airway pressure (nCPAP) in patients with neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (NRDS).Methods:We intend to search the following databases: PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Wanfang database, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and Google Scholar, starting from their initial publication until February 2022, to identify randomized controlled trials comparing HFNC to nCPAP in patients with NRDS. The suitable papers will be chosen by 2 writers who will work independently of one another. Using the Cochrane updated technique for risk of bias, each included article will be subjected to an independent data extraction process by the 2 writers who will then independently evaluate the risk of bias. Consequently, a third author will be asked to address any discrepancies that may arise between the writers. It will be necessary to pool the data and do a meta-analysis with the help of the RevMan 5.3 software.Results:In this study, the effectiveness and safety of HFNC will be compared with those of nCPAP in patients with NRDS.Conclusion:If the results of this research are confirmed, they may serve as a summary of the most recent data for non-invasive respiratory assistance in NRDS.Ethics and dissemination:The study will require ethical approval.Registration number:DOI 10.17605/OSF.IO/BKSQ5

Variation of Mean Absolute Relative Differences of Continuous Glucose Monitoring Systems Throughout the Day

Background:There is an increasing use of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) by people with diabetes. Measurement performance is often characterized by the mean absolute relative difference (MARD). However, MARD is influenced by a number of factors and little is known about whether MARD is stable throughout the day.Material and Methods:A total of 24 participants with type 1 diabetes were enrolled in the study. The study was performed for seven in-patient days. Participants wore two CGM systems in parallel and performed additional frequent blood glucose (BG) measurements. On two days, glucose excursions were induced.MARD was calculated between pairs of CGM and BG values, with BG values serving as reference values. ARD values calculated from CGM-BG pairs were grouped by hour of the day. Results were analyzed separately for glucose excursion days and for regular days.Results:Total MARDs for the complete study duration were 12.5% ± 3.6% and 13.2% ± 2.4% (n = 24). Throughout the day marked variability of MARD was observed (8.0% ± 1.3%-16.3% ± 2.9% (G5); 9.1% ± 1.4%-16.3% ± 5.3% (FL), up to n = 157 each). Low(est) MARD values were observed before breakfast and dinner, when subjects were in or near a fasting state. Especially after breakfast and lunch, MARD values were higher than average.Conclusions:Analytical performance of the two CGM systems, assessed by MARD, was found to vary markedly throughout the day. Activities of daily life likely triggered these variations. An increasing number of CGM users base therapeutic decisions on CGM values, and they should be aware of these variations of performance throughout the day.

Continuous infusion of low-dose doxorubicin, epirubicin and mitoxantrone in cancer chemotherapy: A review

With the recent development of reliable portable pumps and safe venous access systems, continuous infusion of chemotherapeutic agents on an out-patient basis has become feasible. Advantages of continuous infusion are the long-term exposure of tumour cells to the drug and the fact that most toxic effects are reduced for doxorubicin, epirubicin and mitoxantrone due to elimination of the high peak plasma levels. Preliminary data for doxorubicin suggest that its antitumour activity is maintained. Pharmacokinetic studies with epirubicin and mitoxantrone showed a linear relationship between drug dose infused and the steady-state plasma level for these drugs. The area under the curve for leukocytes drug level was higher during continuous infusion than after an equitoxic bolus injection of epirubicin and mitoxantrone. Well-randomized clinical trials will be necessary to investigate the role of continuous infusion of antracyclines and mitoxantrone in cancer chemotherapy in the future.     

Fetal stroke and cerebrovascular disease: Advances in understanding from lenticulostriate and venous imaging,alloimmune thrombocytopaenia and monochorionic twins

Fetal stroke is an important cause of cerebral palsy but is difficult to diagnose unless imaging is undertaken in pregnancies at risk because of known maternal or fetal disorders. Fetal ultrasound or magnetic resonance imaging may show haemorrhage or ischaemic lesions including multicystic encephalomalacia and focal porencephaly. Serial imaging has shown the development of malformations including schizencephaly and polymicrogyra after ischaemic and haemorrhagic stroke. Recognised causes of haemorrhagic fetal stroke include alloimmune and autoimmune thrombocytopaenia, maternal and fetal clotting disorders and trauma but these are relatively rare. It is likely that a significant proportion of periventricular and intraventricular haemorrhages are of venous origin. Recent evidence highlights the importance of arterial endothelial dysfunction, rather than thrombocytopaenia, in the intraparenchymal haemorrhage of alloimmune thrombocytopaenia. In the context of placental anastomoses, monochorionic diamniotic twins are at risk of twin twin transfusion syndrome (TTTS), or partial forms including Twin Oligohydramnios Polyhydramnios Sequence (TOPS), differences in estimated weight (selective Intrauterine growth Retardation; sIUGR), or in fetal haemoglobin (Twin Anaemia Polycythaemia Sequence; TAPS). There is a very wide range of ischaemic and haemorrhagic injury in a focal as well as a global distribution. Acute twin twin transfusion may account for intraventricular haemorrhage in recipients and periventricular leukomalacia in donors but there are additional risk factors for focal embolism and cerebrovascular disease. The recipient has circulatory overload, with effects on systemic and pulmonary circulations which probably lead to systemic and pulmonary hypertension and even right ventricular outflow tract obstruction as well as the polycythaemia which is a risk factor for thrombosis and vasculopathy. The donor is hypovolaemic and has a reticulocytosis in response to the anaemia while maternal hypertension and diabetes may influence stroke risk. Understanding of the mechanisms, including the role of vasculopathy, in well studied conditions such as alloimmune thrombocytopaenia and monochorionic diamniotic twinning may lead to reduction of the burden of antenatally sustained cerebral palsy.     

跟骨骨折后距下后关节面应力改变的实验研究

目的研究载荷条件下跟骨后关节面骨折后,所受应力的改变对距下关节的影响,为临床治疗提供理论依据。方法取6具包括完整足和胫腓骨远端15～20cm的新鲜标本。剔除皮肤、肌肉和跟腱,保留除外距下关节后方的关节囊部分,保持韧带和关节囊的完整。将压敏片插入距下关节的后关节间隙,中立位状态下分别在500N载荷下,对6具标本的距下关节进行加载,完成完整足的测试。然后模拟原始骨折线用微型摆动锯将跟骨后关节面分为前内和后外2块,接着按解剖复位、后外侧骨折块向跖侧移位2、5、10mm等条件重复上述实验,记录距下后关节面所受应力的改变。结果完整的距下后关节面承载的平均应力为(1.83±0.56)MPa。跟骨后外侧骨折块向跖侧移位2mm时,后关节面所承载的应力为(2.41±0.84)MPa,较完整跟骨承载应力显著增加(P<0.01)。结论跟骨距下关节后关节面骨折跖侧移位≥2mm即应手术复位。
