[Identification of HLA class Ⅱ susceptible alleles and genotypes in latent autoimmune diabetes in adults].
Objective: To identify human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DRB1, DQA1 and DQB1 susceptible alleles and genotypes in latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) patients of Chinese Han nationality. Methods: All subjects including 652 LADA patients and 1 181 healthy controls from 1999 to 2015 in Han nationality region of Hunan province were genotyped with high resolution at HLA-DRB1, DQA1 and DQB1 locus by PCR-sequence based typing (PCR-SBT). Frequencies of genotypes between patients and controls were compared by chi square test. ⋯ DQB1*0201 and DRB1*0301 were shared susceptible alleles for Chinese Han and Caucasian LADA patients, while DQA1*03, DQB1*0303, DQB1*0304, DQB1*0401, DRB1*0405 and DRB1*0901 were specific susceptible alleles for Chinese Han LADA patients. Interestingly, the DQB1*0303 allele was susceptible in Chinese while protective in Caucasian (OR: 1.30 vs 0.29). Conclusion: Susceptible alleles are DQA1*03, DQB1*0201, DQB1*0303, DQB1*0304, DQB1*0401, DRB1*0301, DRB1*0405 and DRB1*0901, and susceptible genotypes are DQA1*03/05, DQB1*0201/0201, DQB1*0201/0303, DRB1*0301/0901 and DRB1*0901/0901 in Chinese LADA patients.

Randomized Controlled Trial[Effects of sevoflurane and desflurane on pharmacodynamics of rocuronium in children].
Objective: To observe the intraoperative influences on pharmacodynamics of rocuronium in children inhaling sevoflurane and desflurane for 40 min balance. Methods: Ninety children (ASAⅠ-Ⅱ) undergoing elective surgery with general anesthesia in Second Affiliated Hospital & Yuying Children's Hospital, Wenzhou Medical University from July 2015 to May 2016 were randomly assigned into six groups (n=15): Sevoflurane group (group S1 and S2), Desflurane group (group D1 and D2) and Propofol group (group P1 and P2). Children in group D1, S1 and P1 were allocated to research the dose-effect relationship of rocuronium, children in group D2, S2 and P2 were allocated to research the time-effect relationship of rocuronium. ⋯ Compared with group P2, the shorter onset time, the longer peak effect time and clinical effect time was observed in group D2 and S2, the longer recovery index, internal effect time and TOFr from 0% to 70% and 90% was observed in group S2 (all P<0.01). Conclusions: 1.3 MAC sevoflurane and desflurane inhaling for 40 min significantly reduces ED(50) and ED(95) of rocuronium, prolongs the onset time and action time of rocuronium in children. Sevoflurane can significantly prolong the recovery characteristics of rocuronium.

[The value of brachial artery peak velocity variation during the Valsalva maneuver to predict fluid responsiveness].
Objective: To evaluate whether brachial artery peak velocity variation(ΔVp) during a Valsalva maneuver(VM) could predict fluid responsiveness in spontaneously breathing patients. Methods: Ninety-six patients required radial artery catheter for elective surgery of Ningbo Yinzhou People's Hospital from December 2014 to June 2016 were enrolled. The brachial artery Doppler signal was recorded to measure the ΔVp while the VM was performed. ⋯ The ΔVp correlated well with ΔCO (r=0.792, P<0.01). The area under ROC curve was 0.903, with the ΔVp cut-off of 33%, the sensitivity of 87% and the specificity of 82%(P<0.01). Conclusion: Brachial artery peak velocity variation during a valsalva maneuver is a feasible method for predicting fluid responsiveness in spontaneously breathing patients.

Multicenter Study[An epidemiological investigation of pediatric patients under 14 with large area burns: a multicenter study].
Objective: To investigate and evaluate the epidemiological characteristics of patients under 14 with large area burns in China. Methods: Data of pediatric patients aged 0-14yr with ≥30% total body surface area (TBSA) burned admitted into 106 burn centers in the mainland of China in 2014 were retrieved. The children were divided into three age groups: 0-3, 4-6 and 7-14 years according to the age. ⋯ Conclusions: Children under 3 years old are important target population of severe burns. Scald is the most common type of burns, while the proportion of flames increases as age goes up. Most patients are likely to get clinical treatment in time, however, the pre-hospital emergency burn care is not satisfying at present.

[Clinical application of Acutegastrointestinal injury grading system assocaited with clinical severity outcome in critically ill patients: a multi-center prospective, observational study].
Objective: To investigate the feasibility of utilizing the current acute gastrointestinal injury(AGI) grading system, and explore the association of severity of AGI grade with clinical outcome in critically ill patients. Methods: The adult patients from 14 general ICUs in Zhejiang Province with an expected admission to ICU for at least 24 h were recruited, and all clinical, laboratory, and survival data were prospectively collected. The AGI grade was daily assessed based on GIsymptoms, feeding details and organ dysfunctionon the first week of admission to ICU. ⋯ In the further subgroup analysis including 402 patients with 7-day survival, the feeding intolerance within the first week of ICU stay could provide independent and incremental prognostic value of 60-day mortality wtih increased χ(2)value of Cox regression model(χ(2)=52.2 vs 41.9, P=0.007). Conclusion: The AGI grading system is useful for identifying the severity of gastrointestinal dysfunction, and could be used as a strong predictor of impaired outcome. The results provide evidence to support that feeding intolerance within 7 days of admission to ICU was an independent determinant of mortality.
