Objective To evaluate the effects of inhaled aerosolized different doses of lidocaine on lung injury in patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Methods Thirty ASA physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ patients of both sexes,aged 18-58 yr,weighing 35-70 kg,undergoing elective cardiac valve replacement with CPB,were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =10 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),lidocaine 100 mg group (group L1) and lidocaine 200 mg group (group L2).Anesthesia was induced with iv injection of midazolam,etomidate,fentanyl and vecuronium.The patients were endotracheally intubated and mechanically ventilated.The aemsolized normal saline 10 ml,2% lidocaine 5 ml + saline 5 ml and 2% lidocaine 10 ml were inhaled in C,L1 and L2 groups,respectively,starting from 10 min after induction.At 10 min after induction (T0),1 and 10 min after opening of vena cava (T1,2),and the end of CPB (T3),blood samples were collected from the left radial artery (LRA) and right atrium (RA) for determination of plasma interleukin8 (IL-8),tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and malondialdehyde (MDA) concentrations (using ELISA) and the expression of CD11 b on polymorphonuclear leukocytes (by flow cytometry).Blood samples were collected from the left radial artery at T0,immediately after beginning of CPB,at T3 and at 2 and 6 h after termination of CPB for blood gas analysis.The oxygenation index (OI),respiratory index (RI) and dynamic lung compliance (Cdyn) were calculated.Results Compared with group C,the ratio between IL-8 concentration in LRA and in RA (concentration of IL-8LRA/RA) was significantly decreased at T2,3,the concentration of MDALRA/RA was decreased at T3 (P < 0.05),no significant change was found in the expression of CD11bLRA/RA at each time point (P > 0.05),and RI was decreased at T3 in L1 and L2 groups (P < 0.05).There were no significant differences in the concentration of IL-8LRA/RA,TNF-αLRA/RA and MDALRA/RA,expression of CD11bLR A/RA,RI,OI and Cdyn at each time point between group L2 and group L1 (P > 0.05).Conclusion Aerosolized lidocaine inhalation can attenuate lung injury and improve lung function in patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement under CPB by reducing inflammatory responses and lipid peroxidation in lung tissues.

Objective To evaluate the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on postoperative outcome in the patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).Methods Forty-four patients of both sexes,aged 18-55 yr,with body mass index of 18-25 kg/m2,of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅲ,with New York Heart Association Ⅱ[or Ⅲ,scheduled for elective cardiac valve replacement with CPB,were divided into 2 groups (n =22 each) using a random number table:control group (group C) and group EA.In group EA,patients received EA stimulation with needles at bilateral Neiguan,Ximen,Shenmen and Baihui acupoints (disperse-dense waves,frequency 2 Hz,intensity 1.0-1.2 mA) from 20 min before anesthesia induction to the end of surgery.After induction of general anesthesia,the patients were endotracheally intubated and mechanically ventilated,and combined intravenous-inhalational anesthesia was used to maintain anesthesia.Quality of Recovery 9 and Minimum Mental State Examination scores were assessed on the day before surgery and 1 and 3 days after surgery.The development of nausea and vomiting,postoperative cognitive dysfunction,requirement for rescue analgesics and ventricular arrhythmia was recorded within 3 days after surgery.The consumption of sufentanil in surgery,extubation time,the first flatus time,the first postoperative off-bed time,duration of stay in the intensive care unit and length of hospital stay after sugery were recorded.Results Compared with group C,the consumption of sufentanil in surgery was significantly decreased,Quality of Recovery 9 scores were increased at 1 and 3 days after surgery,the incidence of nausea and vomiting,postoperative cognitive dysfunction and ventricular arrhythmia was decreased within 3 days after surgery,and the extubation time,the first flatus time,the first postoperative off-bed time and length of hospital stay after surgery were significantly shortened in group EA (P<0.05).Conclusion EA can promote postoperative outcome in the patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement with CPB.

Organic acids are organic compounds that can be synthesized using biological systems. They often contain one or more low molecular weight acidic groups, such as carboxyl group and sulphonic group. Organic acids are widely used in food, agriculture, medicine, bio-based materials industry and other fields. Yeast has unique advantages of biosafety, strong stress resistance, wide substrate spectrum, convenient genetic transformation, and mature large-scale culture technology. Therefore, it is appealing to produce organic acids by yeast. However, challenges such as low concentration, many by-products and low fermentation efficiency still exist. With the development of yeast metabolic engineering and synthetic biology technology, rapid progress has been made in this field recently. Here we summarize the progress of biosynthesis of 11 organic acids by yeast. These organic acids include bulk carboxylic acids and high-value organic acids that can be produced naturally or heterologously. Finally, future prospects in this field were proposed.
