Objective : To discuss and summarize the preventive measures and treatment methods for aspiration/ingestion during dental procedures. Methods : One case of aspiration during an implant operation was reported, and the literature on aspiration/ingestion during oral procedures was reviewed. Results: An implant screwdriver accidentally slipped into the mouth of the patient during implant surgery. The patient experienced no obvious discomfort except a few coughs. The surgeon and assistant paused the procedure immediately to search for the screwdriver, but it was not found. The patient declared that there was no special abnormality, such as breathing disorder or chest distress, so we considered that the foreign body was ingestion. After the implant surgery was completed, no foreign body was found in the stomach via gastroscopy. Chest X-ray and CT showed a dense metal shadow in the lower lobe of the left lung. Under local anesthesia, bronchoscopy and biopsy forceps were used by respiratory physicians to clip out the foreign body. After removal of the foreign body, the patient had no obvious discomfort but a slight cough. Cephalexin and metronidazole were given for three days to prevent infection. Three days later, the patient had no complaints of respiratory discomfort. After reviewing the literature, we found that the operation should be paused immediately after aspiration/ingestion occurs during dental procedures and that the dental chair should be laid down to prevent the foreign body from descending deeper, which may increase the difficulty of removal and cause gastrointestinal and respiratory tract injury. The position of the foreign body should be determined by imaging examination, and the corresponding means to remove the foreign body should be performed. Conclusion Patients may have no obvious symptoms after aspiration/ingestion during dental procedures, and the foreign body can be removed after imaging examination.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of continuous infusion of lidocaine via urinary catheter for postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing urological surgery.Methods:Forty male American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ patients, aged 65-75 yr, with body mass index of 18-25 kg/m 2, scheduled for elective percutaneous nephrolithotomy, were divided into 2 groups ( n=20 each) using a random number table method: continuous infusion of lidocaine through urinary catheter group (group L) and patient controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) group (group PCIA). All the patients underwent total intravenous anesthesia, and a matched type of sterile urethral irrigation catheter was inserted after the operation.In group L, 0.5% lidocaine was continuously infused at a rate of 5 ml/h via the urinary catheter, while the equal volume of 0.9% normal saline was continuously infused via the urinary catheter, and PCIA was connected in group PCIA.PCIA solution contained sufentanil 125 μg (diluted to 250 ml in normal saline), and the PCA pump was set up with a 5 ml bolus dose, a 15 min lockout interval and background infusion at a rate of 5 ml/h.When visual analogue score was>4, sufentanil 0.05 μg/kg was injected intravenously as rescue analgesic.The development and severity of catheter-related bladder discomfort (CRBD) were recorded immediately at the end of the operation (T 1), and at 6 h (T 2), 24 h (T 3) and 48 h (T 4) after the operation, respectively.Riker sedation-agitation scale (SAS) score was recorded at T 1, 2, and QoR-9 scale was recorded at T 3, 4.The concentrations of serum cortisol (Cor), norepinephrine (NE), epinephrine (E) and blood glucose (Glu) were measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay.First off-bed time, exhaust time, length of hospital stay after surgery, and the requirement for rescue analgesia and adverse reactions (nausea and vomiting, respiratory depression, hypotension, skin itching) within 48 h after the operation were recorded. Results:Compared with group PCIA, the incidence of CRBD and the severity were significantly decreased at T 1-4, SAS score was decreased at T 1, 2, QoR-9 score was increased at T 3, 4, Cor, NE, E and Glu concentrations were decreased at T 1-4, the incidence of postoperative rescue analgesia was decreased, first off-bed time, exhaust time and length of hospital stay after surgery was shortened, and the incidence of postoperative nausea and vomiting, respiratory depression, hypotension, skin itching was decreased in group L ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Continuous infusion of lidocaine through the urinary catheter can provide good postoperative analgesia, reduce postoperative stress response and adverse reactions, and facilitate early postoperative recovery in patients undergoing urological surgery.

Objective: To investigate the safety and efficacy of rotational atherectomy in the interventional treatment of coronary chronic total occlusion lesions. Methods: In this retrospective study,a total of 31 consecutive patients with coronary chronic total occlusion(CTO) lesions underwent rotational atherectomy in our hospital from February 2004 to December 2016 were enrolled,and the clinical features were analyzed. Coronary atherectomy was performed if balloon failed to cross the CTO lesions or balloon could not be fully dilated in the CTO lesions after wire crossing. The definition of procedure success was defined as residual stenosis less than 20% after implantation of drug eluting stent and rotational atherectomy. After the procedure, the patients were followed up to observe major adverse cardiac and cerebral vascular events which including cardiogenic death, myocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accident, and target lesion revascularization. Results: The 1.25 mm diameter burr was firstly selected in 80.6% (25/31) patients,and 96.8%(30/31) patients used only 1 burr to complete the rotational atherectomy procedure. The complication rate was 9.8% (3/31) including 1 patient with coronary dissection and 3 patients with slow flow or no flow. There was 1 patent with both coronary dissection and slow flow. The procedure success rate was 96.8%(30/31). Interventional treatment related myocardial infarction occurred in 3 patients during hospitalization.The 30 patients with procedure success were followed up 36(11, 96) months. The incidence rate of major adverse cardiac and cerebral vascular events was 13.3% (4/30), of which the cardiogenic death rate was 3.3% (1/30), the myocardial infarction rate was 6.7% (2/30), cerebrovascular accident rate was 3.3%(1/30),and the target lesion revascularization rate was 6.7% (2/30). Conclusion Rotational atherectomy is safe and effective in the interventional treatment of coronary CTO lesions.

Objective To observe the efficacy of antithrombotic treatment of acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients with failure primary percutaneous coronary intervention because of high thrombus burden,and its effect on elective percutaneous coronary intervention.Methods Eight acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients were enrolled,who suffered from failure of primary percutaneous coronary intervention because of high thrombus burden.Summarize the antithrombotic strategies in perioperative and postoperative period,the operative strategies and the follow-up coronary intervention were recorded and reviewed.Results All the patients were male and most of them had acute inferior myocardial infarction with right coronary occluded because of high thrombus burden.Four patients received thrombus aspiration and balloon dilation.One patient received thrombus aspiration and the other three patients did not receive coronary intervention.Tirofiban were given in perioperative period to all the patients.Low molecular weight heparin was given to 6 patients.Dual antiplatelet therapy was given to 6 patients (aspirin 100 mg/day plus clopidogrel 75 mg/day) and 1 patient required up-titration of aspirin to 200 mg/day.Coronary angiography were repeated (29.00 ± 23.25) days later,and the thrombus in the culprit vessels disappeared in two patients,and coronary stent implantation was performed in three patients.Conclusions The routine antithrombotic strategies play limited roles in thrombus clearance in acute ST segment elevation myocardial infarction patients with failure primary percutaneous coronary intervention because of high thrombus burden.The time for the thrombus to be totally organized and the timing of elective percutaneous coronary intervention are still uncertain and need to be further studied.

Objective To investigate the effect of community comprehensive intervention on health behavior and self-rated health status among family caregivers of disabled elderly.Methods One hundredand twenty family caregivers of disabled elderly were selected from community health service centers of Beijing Dongcheng District,and were given 6 month-comprehensive community intervention (intervention group);121 family caregivers of disabled elderly from another community were selected as the control group.The knowledge and skills of caregiving,health behaviors (daily exercise time,daily relaxation time) and self-rated health status were evaluated before and 6 months after intervention.Results The knowledge and skill scores in intervention group were improved by 50.781 points,the daily exercise time and daily relaxation time were prolonged by 0.491 h and 0.837 h,respectively after the intervention (all P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in self-rated health status of two groups before and after intervention (P ＞0.05).Conclusion Community comprehensive intervention improves the knowledge and skills of caregiving,and the health behaviors among family caregivers of disabled elderly,but the intervention measures does not impact the self-rated health status of family caregivers.

Objective To investigate the effect of phosphoinositide-3-kinase inhibitor LY294002 on the differentiation of human embryonic stem cells (HESC) into more mature insulin-producing cells. Methods HESCs were induced to differentiate into insulin-producing cells through five stages. Nicotinamide and B27 (group B27), nicotinamide and LY294002 (group LY) were used to induce the nesting positive cells into mature insulin-producing cells. The morphological change of each stage was observed under microscope , and expressions of insulin, c-peptide, somatostatin and glucagon were identified by immunofluorescence staining. Results After 14 days in stage 5 , there was no significant difference in rate of insulin positive cells between group LY and group B27 (P﹥0.05), but rates of somatostatin and glucagon positive cells in group LY were lower than those in group B27(P﹤0.05). Furthermore, the co-stained rate of somatostatin and insulin in group LY was also lower than that in group B27 (P﹤0.05). Conclusion HESCs can be induced to differentiate into more mature insulin-producing cells by phosphoinositide-3-kinase inhibitor LY294002 in serum-free culture medium.

Objective To explore the relationship between care burden and social support among family caregivers of disabled elders in Beijing urban area.Methods A cross-sectional survey based on convenience sampling was conducted among 744 family caregivers in Dongcheng District in Beijing urban area.All subjects were interviewed by the Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI),Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS) and general social and demographical material lists.And then we analyzed the correlation between social support and care burden.Results The mean scores of ZBT and SSRS were (40.3 ± 15.2) and (31.1 ± 6.9)respectively.And a negative correlation existed between the level of caregiver burden and total social support.The care burden of disability elders was negatively associated with objective support,subjective support and social support availability (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions There is a close relationship between care burden and social support among family caregivers of disabled elders.The more objective support,subjective support and social support availability the caregivers acquire,the less burden they bear.

Objective To survey the social support status and demands for family caregivers of the disabled elderly.Methods A cross-sectional survey based on convenience sampling was conducted among 779 disabled elderly and their family caregivers from May to June 2013 in five communities of Beijing Dongcheng District.Barthel index was used to measure the degree of functional impairment of the elderly.Self-rating Depression Scales (SDS) was used to evaluate depression symptoms of caregivers.Social Support Rating Scale (SSRS) and social support demand questionnaire were used to measure the social support status and social support demands of caregivers,respectively.Multiple linear regression analysis was used to analyze the influence factors of social support.Results Total 779 caregivers were identified and 744 caregivers completed the questionnaires with a valid response rate of 95.5％.Among 744 family caregivers the social support levels were low with an average SSRS score of 31.16 ± 6.86.There were significant differences in SSRS scores among caregivers of disabled elderly with different characteristics (age,married status and the Barthel index score) (all P ＜ 0.05);and there were significant differences in SSRS scores among caregivers with different characteristics (age,educational level,married status,current employment,relationship with patients,caregiving time daily,subjective care burden,living with patients,number of caregivers and depression status) (all P ＜ 0.05).Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the Barthel index score of the disabled elderly,the relationship with the elderly,depression status of the caregivers and the subjective care burden were correlated with the social support level of family caregivers (all P ＜0.05);the standard regression coefficients of above significant factors were 0.098,0.190,0.134 and 0.155,respectively.The social support demands of family caregivers were various;the average score was 2.44 ± 0.64,the top three demands were provision of care subsidy for the disabled elderly (average score was 2.95 ± 0.93),provision of care allowance for family caregivers (average score was 2.90 ± 0.93) and the guidance of safe medication (average score was 2.83 ± 0.83).Conclusions Family caregivers for the disabled elderly obtain low level social support in the surveyed area.Since the earegivers have various social support demands,the social support and assistance for them should be specific,effective and comprehensive.

Objective:To analyze the frequency and alteration of circulating dendritic cells (DCs) and subtypes in patients with ST‐elevated acute myocardial infarction(AMI) .Methods:A total of 17 patients with ST‐elevated AMI(AMI group) and 14 pa‐tients with stable angina pectoris(SAP) as SAP group and 15 people with normal coronary angiogram with matched age and gender(control group) were enrolled .The absolute number and percentage in peripheral blood mononuclear cells of circulating DCs ,myeloid dendritic cell(mDC) and plasmacytoid dendritic cell(pDC) in the three groups were detected using the 3‐colure staining flow cytometry .The levels of interleukin‐6(IL‐6) and tumor necrosis factor‐α(TNF‐α) were detected with enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay .In the AMI group ,these indexes were measured on the 7th day after the attack .Results:The per‐centage of circulating DCs in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and the absolute number of DCs ,the percentage of circulating mDC and pDC in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and the absolute numbers of mDC and pDC and mDC/pDC ratio in the AM I group on the day of attack(<24 h) were significantly lower than those in the control group and the SAP group(P<0 .01 or 0 .05) .In the AMI group ,on the 7th day after the attack , the percentages of DCs ,mDC and pDC in peripheral blood mononuclear cells and the absolute numbers of DCs ,mDC and pDC and mDC/pDC ratio were higher than those on the day of attack (P<0 .01 or 0 .05) .The level of IL‐6 and TNF‐αin the AMI group on the day of attack were significantly higher than those in the control group and SAP group(P<0 .05) ,and the level of IL‐6 decreased on the 7th day after the attack in the AMI group (P<0 .05) .But there was no significant difference in the percentage of DCs ,mDC and pDC in peripheral blood mononu‐clear cells and the absolute numbers and mDC/pDC ratio between the control group and the SAP group(P>0 .05) .Conclu‐sions:Circulating mDC and pDC are significantly reduced in patients on the day of attack of AM I ,and it can increase to nearly normal on the 7th day after attack .It indicates that the possibility of DCs recruits into coronary plaques and improve the forma‐tion of unstable plaque .
