[Experimental study on the expression and function of aquaporin-1 and aquaporin-5 in rats with acute lung injury induced by lipopolysaccharide].
To investigate whether the expression and function of aquaporin-1 (AQP-1) is altered by tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) in primary rat lung microvessel endothelial cells (LMECs) after exposure to lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and to study the expressions of AQP-1 and AQP-5 in lung tissue of rats with acute lung injury (ALI) induced by LPS. The aim is to further clarify the pathogenesis of ALI/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). ⋯ AQP-1 and AQP-5 may play a role in abnormal fluid transportation and probably involve in the formation of pulmonary edema in ALI/ARDS.

[Effects of antihypertensives on arterial responses associated with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome].
To investigate whether antihypertensive medications ameliorate the changes in arterial stiffness and blood pressure associated with obstructive sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS). ⋯ Systemic blood pressure increases significantly during the post-apneic phase of OSAHS even with the combined antihypertensive therapy which normalizes awake BP in the hypertensive patients. However, increases in arterial stiffness during obstructive events can be ameliorated by combined antihypertension medications, in contrast to increased arterial stiffness seen in normotensive OSAHS patients or hypertensive OSAHS patients on no such medications.

[Ventilatory and hemodynamic effects of continuous positive airway pressure in dogs with acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema].
To investigate the ventilatory and hemodynamic effects of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) in acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema (ACPE) in dogs. ⋯ ACPE induced rapid breath, elevated Pt and decreased CVP and CO. Proper CPAP can improve CO by regulating Pt, hence the improvement of other hemodynamic parameters.

Review Case Reports[Pulmonary alveolar proteinosis treated with whole-lung lavage utilizing extracorporeal membrane oxygenation: a case report and review].
To improve the treatment of severe hypoxaemia in patients with pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP). ⋯ When a patient with PAP has refractory hypoxemia prior to the lavage procedure, ECMO should be considered in order to avoid severe hypoxaemia with fatal consequences during lavage.

[A retrospective cohort study of the influence of time of hospital-acquired pneumonia onset on pathogen constitution].
To study the influence of duration of hospitalization on etiologic agent and antibiotic-resistance of hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP). ⋯ There was significant difference in the pathogen constitution and antibiotic-resistance among early-onset, middle-onset and late-onset cases of HAP. The sensitivity of ceftriaxone was high in less severe early-onset cases without risk factors.
