[A retrospective cohort study of prognostic factors for death in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis].
To investigate the prognostic implications of clinical, radiographic, and physiological variables in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). ⋯ TLC%, DLCO%, cell differentials of BALF and the degree of pulmonary fibrosis were the main factors affecting the prognosis of patients with IPF. TLC% and DLCO% showed a negative correlation with the prognosis of patients with IPF. Glucocorticoids and/or cytotoxic drug therapy had no effect on the prognosis of patients with IPF.

[The application of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle aspiration: report of 70 cases].
To evaluate the diagnostic yield and the safety of endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial needle biopsy (EBUS-TBNA) in mediastinal and hilar lymph nodes and lung tumors. ⋯ EBUS-TBNA is an effective and safe method for the diagnosis of bronchogenic carcinoma and unknown mediastinal-hilar lymphadenopathy.

Comparative Study[Hemodynamic effects of synchronous and asynchronous independent lung ventilation with different levels of positive end-expiratory pressure and tidal volumes on unilateral lung injury in dogs].
To investigate the effects of asynchronous independent lung ventilation and synchronous independent lung ventilation with different levels of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) and tidal volumes on hemodynamics and gas exchange in dogs with a hydrochloric acid induced acute lung injury. ⋯ In this animal model, the hemodynamics kept stable when the difference between the left lung PEEP and the right lung PEEP was less than 20 cm H2O. Synchronous independent lung ventilation caused less hemodynamic compromise when higher PEEP (> 25 cm H2O) was used because of the marked asymmetry in the mechanics of the 2 lungs.

[A study on the activity of clofazimine with antituberculous drugs against Mycobacterium tuberculosis].
To explore the role of clofazimine in combination with other antituberculous drugs against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. ⋯ The activity of clofazimine was enhanced by the addition of clarithromycin. These observations are important for the therapy of multidrug-resistant tuberculosis.
