Conclusions Dexmedetomidine is safe and effective for laparoscopic cholecystectomy in view of more stable hemodynamics,less stress reaction,and non influence on hepatic/renal function.

Objective To investigate the significance of preoperative and postoperative enteral nutrition support in gastric cancer patients with nutritional risk.Methods The clinical data of 72 gastric cancer patients with nutritional risk admitted in our department were analyzed.All the patients were randomly allocated into two groups.36 patients in the control group received only intravenous nutrition postoperatively (PN group).36 patients in the treatment group received enteral nutrition support from the fifth day before operation to eighth day after operation (EN group).The body weight,total protein,albumin,transferrin and prealbumin were measured on the fifth day before operation,the operation morning,the first day and the eighth day after operation.Results On the operation morning,the transferrin and prealbumin of the EN group were higher than those in PN group significantly(P ＜0.05).In the eighth day after operation.the treatment group patients showed significant increase in the body weight,total protein,albumin,transferrin and prealbumin compared with those in the control group(P ＜ 0.05).On the operation morning,the transferrin and prealbmnin of EN group were increased significantly than on the fifth day before operation(P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion The preoperative and postoperative enteral nutritional support can improve the nutritlonal condition in the gastric cancer patients with nutritional risk.The preoperative enteral nutritional support can improve the patients' nutritlonal condition and reserves before operation,and reduce adverse reaction of enteral nutrition.

Objective To evaluate the effect of neoadjuvant chemotherapy on lymph node micrometastasis and DC cell number in stage Ⅲ gastric cancer patients.Methods Lymph node micrometastases in pathologically negative lymph nodes from 76 stage Ⅲ gastric cancer patients [56 cases with neoadjavant chemotherapy (NCT) and 20 cases without],were assessed by cytokeratin-20 antibody.Dendritic cells (DC) in HE positive lymph nodes,HE negatives near tumor foci and HE negatives far foci were assessed by CD83 antibody respectively.Patients were divided into four groups:group 0 (20 cases without NCT),group 2 (two courses of NCT in 29 patients),group 3 (three courses of NCT in 16 patients),group 4 (four courses of NCT in 11 patients).Results In NCT group there were two patients with micrometastases (2/56).All the patients were with micrometastases in control group (20/20).Difference was statistically significant (P =0.000).In HE-positive lymph node group:the number of CD83-positive DC in 2 times group,3 times group,and 4 times group when compared with no chemotherapy group were statistically significant (P20 =0.001,P30 =0.000,P40 =0.000).In HE-negative lymph node near foci group:the number of CD83-positive DC in 3 times group,and 4 times group compared with 0 group were statistically significant increased (P30 =0.001,P40 =0.001).In HE-negative lymph node far foci group:the number of 4 times group was significantly higher than 0,2 and 3 group (P40 =0.000,P42 =0.000,P43 =0.001).Conclusions Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is effective in the prevention of lymph node micrometastases in stage Ⅲ gastric carcinoma and it increases the number of mature dendritic cells in lymph nodes.

Objective To examine the practicability and security of the LigaSureTM vessel-sealing system in radical gastrcctomy.Methods Seventy patients of stage Ⅰ～Ⅲ gastric cancer undergone radical gastrectomy were analyzed retrospectively.Thirty-five radical gastrectomy were performed with LigaSureTM vessel-sealing system,the other 35 eases were performed without LigaSureTM.The operative duration,volume of intraoperative hemorrhage,and postoperative complications were analyzed.Results There were significant difference in both operative duration[(159.9±24.7)min vs(172.6±23.7)min,P＜0.05]and volume of intraoperative hemorrhage[(335.7±40.3)ml vs(371.7±43.2)ml,P＜0.01].There was no significant difference in the postoperative complications between LigaSureTM group and conventional method group.All patients recovered without severe postoperative complications.Conclusion Radical resection of gastric cancer using LigaSureTM instead of conventional hand tie method appears to he shorten operative duration,decreased volume of intraoperative hemorrhage.And the technique is convenient and safe.

Objective To investigate the effect of 23.4% hypertonic saline(HTS)on intracranial pressure(ICP), cerebral peffusion pressure(CPP), cerebral blood flow(CBF)in poor-grade patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage(SAH).Methods Sixteen patients(Glasgow coma score ≤ 8)with poor-grade SAH received 23.4% hypertonic saline intravenously for elevated ICP.ICP, mean arterial pressure(MAP), CPP and the middle cerebral artery flow velocity(FV)were observed and recorded before and at 30, 60, 90,120, 150, 180 min after the injection respectively.Results Thirty minutes postinfusion, a significant increase in MAP, CPP, FV was seen together with a decrease in ICP(P<0.05).ICP remained reduced for 180 minutes, CPP and FV remained elevated for 90 minutes(P < 0.05).Conclusions HTS can significantly decrease ICP and improve CBF in patients with poor-grade subarachnoid hemorrhage and may be used for reversal of pathophysiologic changes caused by cerebral ischemia.

Aim To explore the hemodynamic change of elderly isolated hypertension(EISH). Methods Color doppler ultrasonography were applied to examine thirty EISH patients and twenty eight elderly healthy subjects. The left ventricular systolic function as well as hemodynamic parameters were measured. Results The indices of left ventricular systolic function in EISH group such as SV,CO,EF and CI were obviously higher than those of control group(P<0.05),Linear relevant analysis show that pulse pressure was remarkable related to SV,CO,EF and CI in EISH group,with r value 0.43,0.56,0.46,0.45 respectively.Conclusion EISH patients apparently had ventricular systolic dysfunction and hemodynamic abnormality. Pulse pressure may be associated with development of sysytolic dysfunction.

Objective To studiy the surgical outcomes of children with congenital aortic stenosis (AS),and summarized the experience of surgical procedures.Methods From February 2006 to November 2011,a total of 49 consecutive children with AS underwent surgical treatments.Twenty-nine patients were male and 20 patients were female.The median age was 17 months (1 month to 14 years),and median weight was 15.6 kg (3.2-47.0 kg).Peak AS gradients was (74.9 ±20.4)mmHg (45-123 mm Hg) before surgery.Fourteen patients had isolated congenital AS,4 had combined moderate-to-severe aortic insufficiency (AI).Thirty-Three patients had associated cardiac anomalies,including ventricular septal defect,atrial septal defect,patent ductus ateriosus,coarctation of aorta,subaortic stenosis,and supravalvular mitral stenosis.Thirty-one patients underwent aortic valvotomy,9 valvuloplasty,2 Aortic valve replacement (AVR),1 Ross procedure,2 Ross-Konno procedure,and 4 Konno/AVR.Median follow-up was 20 months (2-55 months).Clinical and echocardiographic follow-up data were analyzed.Results There was 1 postoperative death who died of heart failure due to severe mitral valve insuffciency.Latest follow-up data showed that the survivals performed in satisfactory cardiac function.Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF)was 0.69 ±0.10,and fraction shortening (FS) was 0.38 ±0.09.Peak AS gradients decreased significantly after surgery to (38.6 ± 15.8) mm Hg (20-73 mm Hg),P ＜ 0.001.One patient needed reintervention because of severe recurrence of adhesion in the commissure 3 months after the previous surgery.Totally 31 patients underwent simple valvotomy procedure.Postoperative AI was none or trace in 5,mild in 20,and moderate in 6.Two surgical techniques were used to repair the aortic valve according to the anatomy of the valve and the cause of insufficiency,including commissuroplasty in 6 and pericarial casp extension in 3.Nine patients underwent valvuloplasty procedure,post-operative AI was none or trace in 3,mild in 5,and moderate in 1.We put more attention to the 7 patients who had moderate AI valvotomy or valvuloplasty,and the latest follow-up showed that these patients were in good condition and there was no deterioration the degree of AI.Conclusion Long-term outcomes show that aortic valvotomy and valvuloplasty are reliable and effective approaches for congenital AS in children.When moderate-to-severe AI exists,other procedures such as Ross,Ross-Konno,AVR,or Konno/AVR are preferred.
