[Effect of blood glucose control after small intestine exclusion surgery in Goto-Kakizaki rat with type 2 diabetes mellitus].
To evaluate the effect of diabetic control after small intestine exclusion surgery in Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rat with type 2 diabetes mellitus. ⋯ In spontaneous type 2 diabetes mellitus rats, all the small intestinal exclusion including proximal gut are effective in glucose control. In terms of intestinal nutrient absorption, duodenal-jejunal bypass may be an ideal surgery for clinical diabetic control. These findings suggest a potential role of proximal intestine in pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Meta Analysis[A meta-analysis of effects of high PEEP versus low PEEP upon mortality in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome].
To evaluate the effects of high PEEP versus low PEEP upon mortality in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). ⋯ The use of high or low PEEP in oxygenation function does not affect hospital mortality in ARDS patients.

[The clinical characteristic and risk factors for the incidence of invasive fungal infection in patients following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation].
To approach the clinical characteristic and risk factors affecting the incidence and outcome of post-transplantation invasive fungal infection (IFI) in patients with malignant hematologic disease and undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). ⋯ Pulmonary mold infection was the most common IFI after allo-HSCT. patients with a history of IFI did not seem to be an contraindication for allo-HSCT. Acute GVHD was a significant risk factor for the incidence and outcome of IFI.

[Effect of lung stress index upon titration of positive end-expiratory pressure at post-recruitment in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome].
To investigate the relationship of stress index and positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and to determine the relationship of stress index, lung recruitment, oxygenation and respiration mechanics. ⋯ Stress index at post-RM can be an excellent method of PEEP titration for ARDS patients.
