Objective To investigate the effects of propofol sedation on different areas of cerebral cortex and memory during operation performed under epidural anesthesia using EEG non-linear monitor and determine the critical value of approximate entropy, the EEG non-linear parameter, without implicit memory.Methods Ten ASA I or II patients of both sexes aged 42-56 yr weighing 59-73 kg undergoing elective abdominal or lower limb operation under epidural anesthesia were enrolled in the study. The patients were unpremedicated. After correct placement of epidural catheter was confirmed, a mixture of 2% lidocaine and 0.3% tetracaine 13-15 ml was injected via the catheter. Propofol was then infused i.v. at 6 mg?kg-1?h-1 for sedation. BP, HR and SpO2 were continuously monitored. The EEG non-linear monitor (ZN16E) was used. The sensors were placed on frontal (FP1 , FP2 ) , temporal (T3 , T4 ), parietal (C3 , C4 ) and occipital ( O1 , O2 ) regions. Approximate entropy and topographic map of approximate entropy were recorded before and during propofol infusion. Sedation scores (OAA/S, 1 = deep sleep, 5 = alert) were assessed during operation The patients' explicit and implicit memory scores were estimated by Process Dissociation Procedure during anesthesia sedateon Results The approximate entropy was significantly decreased during propofol sedation compared to the baseline value before sedation. OAA/S score were maintained at 1 during operation. The explicit and implicit memory scores were significantly decreased during propofol sedation compared to the baseline scores before anesthesia sedation( P

Objective: To understand the mortality and probability of premature death due to malignant tumors, cardio-cerebrovascular diseases, diabetes and chronic respiratory diseases in Taizhou City, Zhejiang Province, so as to provide the basis for the improvement of chronic diseases prevention and control strategies. Methods: The death data of the four chronic diseases among local residents in Taizhou City from 2019 to 2022 were collected through Taizhou Chronic Disease Information Management System, and the crude mortality, standardized mortality (standardized by the data of the seventh national population census in 2020) and probability of premature death were calculated. The trends in mortality and probability of premature death were analyzed using annual percent change (APC). The attainment of probability of premature death due to the four chronic diseases were evaluated using the target values and predicted values in 2025 and 2030. Results: There were 119 899 deaths from the four chronic diseases in Taizhou City from 2019 to 2022, with the crude mortality of 494.48/105 and the standardized mortality of 410.68/105, which was no significant changing trend (APC=4.680% and -2.795%, both P>0.05). The probability of premature death decreased from 10.39% to 8.69% (APC=-6.027%, P<0.05). The crude mortality and standardized mortality in males were higher than those in females (562.13/105 vs. 424.08/105; 461.67/105 vs. 353.81/105; both P<0.05). The crude mortality and standardized mortality in rural areas were higher than those in urban areas (499.65/105 vs. 480.52/105; 429.20/105 vs. 365.68/105; both P<0.05). The probability of premature death in women and rural residents showed downward trends (APC=-8.210% and -7.558%, both P<0.05) from 2019 to 2022. The standardized mortality and probability of premature death due to malignant tumors showed downward trends (APC=-6.090% and -8.019%, both P<0.05). The crude mortality of diabetes showed an upward trend (APC=18.654%, P<0.05). The predicted values for probability of premature death due to due to the four chronic diseases in 2025 and 2030 were 7.27% and 5.40%, respectively, and were lower than the target values of 10.02% and 8.77%. Conclusions From 2019 to 2022, there was no significant trends in the mortality of four chronic diseases in Taizhou City, with rural men being the key population for prevention and control. The probability of premature death showed a downward trend, and it was expected to achieve the target in 2025 and 2030.

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the osteogenesis and adipogenesis in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) isolated from normal rats and osteoporotic rats by ovariectomy. Osteoporotic animal model was established in 3 month-old and 6 month-old female Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats by ovariectomy. Animal experiments were divided into 4 groups: 1) control-3 group; 2) ovx-3 group; 3) control-6 group and 4) ovx-6 group. MSCs were isolated by means of the density-gradient centrifugation method from each group, respectively. Colony-forming unit-fibroblast (CFU-Fs ) number, CFU-Fs size distribution and cell density in CFU-Fs of primary passage MSCs were measured at the inverted phase contrast microscope. The cell cycle and proliferation index (PI) as well as apoptosis idex (AI) of MSCs were studied by (FCM). After osteogenic induction (OSI), calcium nodes of MSCs were marked by alizarin red staining (ARS); The expression level of alkaline phosphatase(ALP) was detected by dynamics method with substrate of phosphoric acid para-Nitro benzene and the content of osteocalcin (OCN) was detected with the isotope labelling method. After adipogenic induction (ADI), lipid droplet in MSCs were detected by oil red O staining and the mRNA level of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) was measured by RT-PCR. The results showed that CFU-Fs and PI are obviously decresed and AI are increased of MSCs in OVX-3 and OVX-6 groups (P<0.05). The secretory volume of ALP and BGP of MSCs and the content of calcium nods of MSCs are lower in OVX-3 and OVX-6 groups than that in control-3 and control-6 groups after osteogenic induction (P<0.05). The number of lipid droplet and the expression level of LPL mRNA are higher in OVX-3 and OVX-6 groups than that in control-3 and control-6 (P<0.05). The result in our study suggested that depress of osteogenesis and the up-regulation of adipogenesis of MSCs in osteoporotic rats by ovariectomy may be relate close to the pathogenesis of osteoporosis.

In order to study the effect of ovariectomy on the capacity of rat MSCs' differentiation into adipocytes, we established the animal models of osteoporosis by performing ovariectomy on the 3-months-old and 6-month-old female SD rats. Then MSCs were isolated from these rats by means of the density-gradient centrifugation method. After adipogenic induction (ADI), lipid droplets were detected by oil red O staining, and the mRNA level of lipoprotein lipase(LPL) was measured by RT-PCR assay. The experiments included 8 groups: (1) MSCs from 3-month-old rats (MSCs 3control); (2) MSCs from 3-month-old ovariectomized rats (MSCs 3ovx); (3) MSCs from 6-month-old rats (MSCs 6control); (4) MSCs from 6-month-old ovariectomized rats (MSCs 6ovx); (5) MSCs from 3-month-old rats with ADI (MSCs ADI 3control); (6) MSCs from 3-month-old ovariectomized rats with ADI (MSCs ADI 3ovx); (7) MSCs from 6-month-old rats with ADI (MSCs ADI 6control); 8) MSCs from 6-month-old ovariectomied rats with ADI (MSCs ADI 6ovx). The results showed that the number of lipid droplets and expression level of LPL mRNA in MSCs ADI 3ovx and MSCs ADI 6ovx were higher than those in MSCs ADI 3control and MSCs ADI 6control, respectively; that the number of lipid droplets and expression level of LPL mRNA in MSCs ADI 6control were higher than those in MSCs ADI 3control respectively. The results of this study suggested that the adipogenic potential of MSCs from both aged and ovariectomied osteoporotic rats were augmented.
