In the past, panretinal photocoagulation (PRP) and vitrectomy (PPV) were the main treatments for proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). In recent years, anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) drugs have been used more and more widely in PDR due to their advantages in rapidly subtracting new blood vessels, reducing leakage, and promoting the absorption of blood. The combination of anti-VEGF drugs and PRP in the treatment of PDR, especially high-risk PDR, can increase the rate of neovascularization and prevent some patients with mild to moderate vitreous hemorrhage from PPV. The application of anti-VEGF drugs during the perioperative period of PPV can also reduce bleeding during the operation, shorten the operation time, and reduce surgical complications. Although clinical studies have confirmed that anti-VEGF drugs can be used as an alternative treatment for PRP, most patients require multiple and long-term treatments, which increase the psychological and economic burden of patients. It is expected that the cost of anti-VEGF drugs and the development of long-acting dosage forms can be reduced and bring better efficacy and benefits to PDR patients in the future.

Objective To investigate the pathophysiology mechanism in belching by using high resolution manometry combined with impedance monitoring.Methods Ten belching patients (four male and six female,ages ranged from 28 to 50 years) received high resolution manometry combined with impedance monitoring.The characters of esophageal motility at rest,swallowing and belching and the possible mechanism of belching were analyzed.Results Nine of 10 patients had esophageal peristaltic dysfunction,displaying as non-peristaltic contraction such as non-conduction contraction,interrupt contraction and dropping contraction.The pressure of the lower esophageal sphincter (LES) of three patients decreased.LES of one patient had incomplete relaxation.Nine of 10 patients were supragastic belching,in which air moved rapidly into esophagus and reversed exited from the mouth in one second.Among nine supragastic belching patients,the pleural pressure of seven patients increased during inspiration,upper esophageal sphincter relaxed and air was mistaken into the esophagus.The pharyngeal muscle contracted in two patients and the air was forced into esophagus.Of all the patients,intragastric and esophageal pressure increased through abdominal muscles and diaphragm contraction and air exited from the mouth.Conclusions The results of this study indicated that there was esophageal peristaltic dysfunction in belching patients.There was no frequently air swallowing in excessive belching patients,the typical belching model was supragastic belching.

BACKGROUND:Nowadays, the component content of assisted reproductive culture medium and their test methods are unclear in the quality standards. We need to establish the test methods to fil this vacancy, so as to control the quality of assisted reproductive culture medium effectively. OBJECTIVE:To establish an evaluation method for determination of fructose and glucose in assisted reproductive culture medium, thereby based on which to establish the quality standards. METHODS:High performance liquid chromatography-differential refractive index detector was adopted and Rezex RCM-Monosaccharide Ca2+(8%) (300.0 mm×7.8 mm) column was used. The mobile phase was ultrapure water at the flow rate of 0.6 mL/min and the temperature of 80 ℃. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Resolution of the peaks of glucose and fructose was 3.2. The linear ranges of glucose and fructose were 30.1-502 mg/L (r=0.999 8) and 102-408 mg/L (r=0.999 8), respectively. The relative standard deviation of reproducibility test was 0.17%and 0.40%, respectively. The relative standard deviation of stability test was 0.22%and 0.73%, respectively. The glucose group and fructose group average recovery rates were 1.22%and 1.38%, respectively. The methodology of High performance liquid chromatography-differential refractive index detector accorded with the requirements. The glucose contents of samples 1 and 2 were 96.7 mg/L and 99.6 mg/L, respectively. The fructose contents of samples 1 and 2 were 208.5 mg/L and 197.4 mg/L, respectively. A reliable, simple, and accurate method was provided for the quality control of assisted reproductive culture medium, which fil s the domestic vacancy in the quality standards for assisted reproductive culture medium.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of dexmedetomidine injected into axillary sheath in alleviating the tourniquet pain during brachial plexus block with ropivacaine.Methods Sixty ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 18-60 yr,weighing 52-85 kg,scheduled for the replantation of amputated finger,were randomly divided into 2 equal groups (n =30 each):ropivacaine group (group R) and dexmedetomidine mixed with ropivacaine group (group DR).All patients underwent axillary brachial plexus block guided by a nerve stimulator.When the intensity of electric stimulation ≤ 0.4 mA,flexion of fingers or wrist still existed,and the local anesthetic was injected into the axillary sheath.0.5％ ropivacaine 40ml was injected in group R.0.5％ ropivacaine mixed with 100μg dexmedetomidine 40ml was injected in group DR.The pressure of inflation was set at 200-250mmHg,and the stress duration was 120 min.Tourniquet pain and the level that the patients could tolerate was evaluated using visual analog scale (VAS) at 120 min of stress status.The patient' s satisfaction with anesthesia was rated and the development of adverse cadiovascular events and local and systemic adverse reactions were recorded.Excessive sedation was measured with Ramsay score in group DR.Results Compared with group R,the tourniquet pain that the patients could tolerate was significantly increased,the severity of tourniquet pain was reduced and the incidence of adverse cadiovascular events was decreased in group DR (P ＜ 0.01).No serious tourniquet-related complications were observed in both groups.No patients developed excessive sedation in group DR.Conclusion Dexmedetomidine 100μg injected into the axillary sheath can safely and effectively alleviate the tourniquet pain when used during brachial plexus block with ropivacaine.

Objective To assess the accuracy of ultrasonographic measurement of gastric fluid volume in predicting the occurrence of nausea and vomiting during and after emergency cesarean section.Methods Seventyseven ASA Ⅰ-Ⅲ patients aged 18-35 yr weighing 66-87 kg undergoing emergency cesarean section were divided into 3 groups according to the preoperative gastric fluid volume:group A ≤ 0.4 ml/kg (n =21); group B 0.4-0.8ml/kg (n =34) and group C ＞ 0.8 ml/kg (n =22).Gastric fluid volume was calculated by Bouvet regression equation,based on antral area of the stomach measured with M-Turbo ultrasonography system (Somo Site Co.USA).Cesarean section was performed under combined spinal-epidural anesthesia with 0.4％ ropivacaine.BP,HR and SpO2 were measured and recorded after entering the operating room,at skin incision and at the end of operation.The occurrence of nausea and vomiting was recorded during operation and within 1 h after operation.Results There was no significant difference in hemodynamic variables among the 3 groups.The incidence of nausea was comparable among the 3 groups:33％ in group A,35％ in group B and 46％ in group C,while the incidence of vomiting was significantly higher in group C (46％) than in group A (10％) and group B (15％).Conclusion The incidence of vomiting is significantly higher during and within 1 h after emergency cesarean section in patients with preoperative gastric fluid volume ＞ 0.8 ml/kg,but the incidence of nausea is not related to preoperative gastric fluid volume.
