[A pilot study of diaphragmatic function evaluated as predictors of weaning in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients].
To evaluate the predictive performance of neuro-mechanical coupling (NMC) and neuro-ventilatory coupling (NVC) in the weaning outcome in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). ⋯ Edi, NVC and NVC × NMC were good predictor for the weaning outcome in patients with COPD.

[The clinical analysis of 35 patients with cutaneous sarcoidosis].
To investigate clinical features of cutaneous sarcoidosis. ⋯ Subcutaneous nodules are the most common and the involvement rate of lung is lower in cutaneous sarcoidosis of our present data. Compared to the patients without systemic involvement, the average incident age of systemic ones is older, the indexes of inflammation markers and the usage of corticosteroid are higher.

Meta Analysis[A meta-analysis of the effects of direct hemoperfusion with polymyxin B-immobilized fiber on prognosis in severe sepsis].
To investigate the effects of direct hemoperfusion with polymixin B-immobilized fiber (DHP-PMX) in patients with sepsis. ⋯ This study suggests a favorable effects of DHP-PMX on mortality and endotoxin decreasing in patients with sepsis. However, lack of enough cases and blinding need to be considered. Further investigation with large sample of high quality RCTs is needed.

[The effects of positive end-expiratory pressure targeting optimal oxygenation on local gas distribution and inflammation in dogs with acute respiratory distress syndrome].
To evaluate the effects of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) targeting optimal oxygenation on local gas distribution and inflammation in dogs with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). ⋯ Alveolar hyperinflation and aggravated lung injury in non-dependent region were occurred at PEEP targeting optimal oxygenation. Hyperinflation was more common in saline lavage-injured ARDS.

[The impact of highly active antiretroviral therapy on bone mineral density in human immunodeficiency virus infected patients].
To evaluate the influence of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART)on bone mineral density(BMD) of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patients and correlating clinical factors. ⋯ The prevalence of osteopenia and osteoporosis in antiretroviral-naive HIV-infected patients is higher. The BMD of HIV-infected patients are reduced compared with the healthy people. The BMD is similar among HIV-infected patients irrespective of antiretroviral treatment. Body weight less than 60 kg and the viral load before HAART are the risk factors of osteopenia/osteoporosis for the HIV-infected antiretroviral patients.
