Objective To explore the effect of dexmedetomidine on upper limb surgery during brachial plexus block anesthesia and its influence on cognitive function.MethodsFrom May 2015 to May 2016, 60 cases of elbow joint operation patients were studied.The patients were randomly divided into control group (local anesthesia combined with physiological saline) and observation group (using local anesthesia drugs with dexmedetomidine).The mean arterial pressure and heart rate before and after anesthesia in two groups were compared.The changes of anesthesia and cognitive function, and the incidence of adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.ResultsCompared with before anesthesia, the mean arterial pressure and heart rate were significantly lower in the two groups (P<0.05).The mean arterial pressure and heart rate in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P<0.05).There was no significant difference between the two groups in the onset time of motor block sensory block, while the observation group was significantly longer than the control group (P<0.05).The control group patients with Ramsay score below 3 points, a total of 4 cases, accounting for the observation group of patients with Ramsay score of less than 3 points, a total of 24 cases, accounting for 80%, the observation group was significantly better than the control group (P<0.05) sedative effect.Compared with before anesthesia, two groups of patients with postoperative 20min MMSE score were lower, but the observation group MMSE score was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.05).There was no significant difference in adverse reactions between the two groups.ConclusionIn the following surgery, the use of local anesthesia combined with dexmedetomidine anesthesia can prolong the time of nerve tissue, and can obtain better sedation and pain, and has little effect on the cognitive function of patients.

Chemotherapy is one of main treatments for nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) except radiation therapy. Improving and optimizing chemotherapeutic regimen are helpful to improve the therapeutic effects and reduce side effects. At present, concurrent chemoradiotherapy still is the standard treatment for advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Induced chemotherapy has been shown superiority, but the effect of adjuvant chemotherapy needs further study. This paper analyzed the superior and inferior, effect and side effect of all kinds of chemotherapeutic methods or scheme including induced chemotherapy, concurrent chemotherapy, adjuvant chemotherapy and palliative chemotherapy and introduced simply the mechanism and clinical effect of new drugs of anticancer. It was hoped to offer some reference for the selection of chemotherapy for NPC.

Objective To analyze the risk factors impeding early extubation after off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCAB) in Chinese patients, so that to identify the applicable patients for "fast track recovery". Methods Clinical data of 680 consecutive patients who had received OPCAB were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into two groups according to the time of extubation (group Ⅰ,n=333, extubation was performed within 12 h postoperation; group Ⅱ,n=347, extubation failed in 12 h). Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to determine risk factors prolonging mechanical ventilation. Results Univariate analyses showed significant difference between the two groups in the percentages of patients over 70 years [25% (84/333) vs 39% (136/347), ?2=15.148, P=0.000], with history of stroke [14% (46/333) vs 22% (75/347), ?2=7.068, P=0.008], with LVEF70 (OR=2.003), LVEF70, severe coronary artery lesion, emergency operation, and poor cardiac function are risk factors impeding early extubation. "Fast track recovery" protocol is applicable to young patients who have good cardiac function without left main lesion and do not need IABP during perioperative period.

Objective To explore the association of apoB gene polymorphisms with dyslipidemia and lipid levels in Xinjiang Shihezi Han Chinese. Methods 150 dyslipidemia patients and 150 normal pople were involved in this study. EcoRI and XbaI polymorphisms of apolipoprotein B was analyzed by PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism. The levels of plasma total cholesterol, triglyceride, low density lipoprotein cholesterol, high density lipoprotein cholesterol, apoAI and apoB were determined. Results The frequency of E + E -/E - E - genotype and E-Allele(37.3% and 19% ) in dyslipidemia group was significantly higher than that in controls( 12. 7% and 6. 3% ). The levels of TC, TG and LDL-C in the E +E -/E - E - gene type were significantly higher than those of the E + E + gene type in each group ( P ＜0. 01 ). The frequency of X + X -/X + X + genotype and X + Allele( 20. 7% and 1 1% ) in dyslipidemia group was significantly higher than that in controls (8% and 4% ). The levels ofTC, TG, LDL-C and apoB in the X + X -/X + X + gene type patients were significantly higher than those in the X - X - gene type patients in every group ( P ＜ 0. 05 ). Conclusion The EcoRI and XbaI polymorphism of ApoB gene was related to dyslipidemia in population of Xinjiang Shihezi Han Chinese, and the E - and X + Allele may be the genetic risk factors for dyslipidemia.

Purpose　The aim is to find out an effective preventing influenza immune preparation. Methods　Egg yolk immune solution of anti-influenza virus(FM1 stem) was prepared from egg of the hens that had been successfully immunized with influenza virus (FM1 stem). Its effects of anti-virus were observed through animal experiment.Results　When the mice of control group began to die the average daily drink quantity of the mice of normal saline control group, egg yolk immune solution control group, immediate preventive group was (3.06±0.86), (2.93±1.47) and (3.99±0.21)ml(P＜0.05)respectively. The average body weights of the mice of these three groups were (15.85±2.70),(14.58±1.92) and (18.27±1.71)g(P＜0.05)respectively. Their mortality was separately 53.84%,69.23% and 3.84%(P＜0.01). The antibody positive rate of survived mice′s serum (1∶10 diluted) was separately 100%, 100% and 0%(P＜0.01). Conclusion　The anti-virus effects of egg yolk immune solution of anti-influenza virus was powerful. The result of preventing mice′s influenza was remarkable.

Objective To explore the expression of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2(TIMP-2) in peripheral blood lymphocytes in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases(COPD) and the association of smoking and TIMP-2 mRNA. Methods The expression of TIMP-2 mRNA in peripheral blood lymphocytes was measured by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) in 44 patients with COPD and 42 healthy smokers.The correlation analysis was then conducted between TIMP-2 mRNA expression and smoking index. Results The expression of TIMP-2 mRNA was 0.753?0.154 and 1.170?0.196,respectively,in patients with COPD and healthy smokers(P

Objective To investigate the mechanisms of the inhibitory effects of peripheral electrical stimu- lation(PES)on chronic central pain(CCP)after spinal cord injury(SCI).Methods Twenty-four male Sprague- Dawley rats with CCP following SCI were randomly divided into three groups:a group without stainless steel needles implanted (NSSN group,n=8),a group with a stainless steel needle implanted but no peripheral electrical stimula- tion applied(NPES group,n=8)and a PES group(PES group,n=8).The rats' CCP was evaluated through ob- serving their response to nociceptive stimulation by means of the paw withdrawal pressure threshold(PWPT)and the paw withdrawal latency(PWL).Spontaneous pain behaviors including autophagia and scratching were observed at the same time.PES was applied via stainless steel needles inserted into standard acupoints on the hind limps and the back.The expression of the NMDA receptor 1(NR-1)subunit in the spinal cord horn was measured using immuno- chemical methods.Results Compared with the NSSN and NPES groups,CCP in the PES group was alleviated, PWPT and PWL were dramatically increased(P＜0.01)and the expression of NR-1 was obviously decreased (P＜0.01).Conclusion Peripheral electrical stimulation may alleviate chronic central pain after spinal cord injury in rats.
