Preliminary assessment of portable sleep monitoring for diagnosis of obstructive sleep apnea in children.

Objective: By observing the differences in sleep parameters between portable sleep monitoring (PM) and polysomnography (PSG) in children, we aimed to investigate the diagnostic value and feasibility of PM in children with suspected obstructive sleep apnea (OSA).

Study Design: This prospective study enrolled consecutive children (aged 3-14 years) with suspected OSA in Shenzhen Children's Hospital. They had PSG and PM in the sleep laboratory.

A first-aid fast track channel for rescuing critically ill children with airway foreign bodies: our clinical experience.

Objective: To explore the role of a first-aid fast track channel in rescuing children with airway foreign bodies and to analyse and summarize the experience and lessons of the first-aid fast track channel in rescuing airway foreign bodies from patients in critical condition.

Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records of children with airway foreign bodies rescued by first-aid fast track channels admitted to our hospital from January 2017 to December 2020. The corresponding clinical features, treatments, and prognoses were summarized.

Superabsorbent polymer balls as foreign bodies in the nasal cavities of children: our clinical experience.

Objective: To summarize the clinical diagnosis and treatment of superabsorbent polymer balls as nasal foreign bodies in children.

Methods: We retrospectively analysed the clinical data concerning 12 cases of superabsorbent polymer balls as nasal foreign bodies in children and summarized the corresponding clinical features, methods of diagnoses and treatment, and prognoses.

Results: Twelve children with superabsorbent polymer balls as foreign bodies in their nasal cavities presented with relatively severe symptoms, such as congestion, runny nose, and nasal swelling.

[Analysis of the causes of immediate bleeding after pediatric adenoidectomy].

Objective: To evaluate the incidence of postoperative hemorrhage in children undergoing adenoidectomy, and to discuss its possible causes.

Methods: Included in this study were children who underwent adenoid and/or tonsil surgery at Shenzhen Children's Hospital between January 2004 and November 2009. The change of hemoglobin (Hb) and hematocrit (Hct) were retrospectively analysed.

[Etiology of inspiratory laryngeal stridor in children].

Objective: Retrospective analysis was performed on the etiology of inspiratory laryngeal stridor in children. The purpose is to raise the diagnosis and cure rate of the disease.

Methods: All patients were hospitalized in Children's Hospital from Jan, 2005 to Jan, 2007.

[Inhibition of hydroxycamptothecin on laryngeal squamous carcinoma cell line].

Background & Objective: Hydroxycamptothecin(HCPT) has wide antitumor spectrum and high inhibition rate of tumor cell line and xenografts. Recently,no studies on the treatment of laryngeal squamous carcinoma with HCPT were reported. Hence,this study were designed to investigate the inhibition of O-HCPT [ring-opened form(O-HCPT)] and C-HCPT[ring-closed form(C-HCPT)] on laryngeal squamous carcinoma cell line(Hep-2 cell line)and its mechanism.
