Objective To study the effect of propofol used for outpatient painless enteroscope on cognitive function.Methods One hundred and twenty ASAⅠ~Ⅱpatients scheduled for enteroscope were randomly divided into three groups .Propofol was given 1.5mg/kg(groupⅠ), 2mg /kg (group Ⅱ) or 2.5 mg/kg ( group Ⅲ) intravenously .The enteroscope was inserted when patient showed unconsciousness and no reaction to dictation .SpO2 was kept above 95%96% throughout enteroscope .All patients received neurobehavioral cognitive status examination ( NCSE ) and mini-mental state examination ( MMSE ) test 1 hour before enteroscope examination and 5 minutes,30 minutes, 1 hour after enteroscope examination was o-ver and must finish it within 15 min.The enteroscope examination time , vital signs, analgesia effects and intraoperative awareness were record .Results The ability of memory and calculation at 5 minutes after en-teroscope examination showed a statistical difference between group Ⅰ and ⅡorⅢ( P <0.05),there was no significant difference between in group II and in group Ⅲ( P >0.05 ) , The ability of memory and calcu-lation at 30 minutes, 1 hour after enteroscope examination there was no significant difference in three groups ( P >0.05 ) .In all patients ,the MMSE scores at 5 minutes after enteroscope examination were significant-ly lower than the baseline value ( P <0.05).The MMSE scores at 30 minutes, 1 hour after enteroscope examination in Ⅲgroup patients were significantly lower than the baseline value ( P <0.05 ) .The MMSE scores at 30 minutes, 1 hour after enteroscope examination in I group patients were significantly higher than that inⅡor Ⅲgroup( P <0.05).The MMSE scores at 30 minutes, 1 hour after enteroscope examination there was no significant difference between in group II and in group Ⅲ( P >0.05 ) .The NCSE and MMSE scores at 3hour, 12 hour after enteroscope examination there was no significant difference between in group I and II or Ⅲ( P >0.05).Conclusion Propofol 1.5mg/kg used for painless enteroscope examination has no effect on cognitive function .MMSE and NCSE are suitable for evaluation of outpatient's cognitive func-tion.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the efficacy and safety of Ji-Tai tablet and Ji-Tai tablet combined with buprenorphine in the treatment of patients with acute withdrawal syndrome of mild heroin dependence. METHODS: A total of 150 patients with mild heroin dependence were recruited, and were randomly assigned to a Ji-Tai tablet group (n=50), a Ji-Tai tablet combined with buprenorphine group (n=50) and a control group (n=50) during a 10-day clinical trial. Opiate withdrawal scale (OWS) was used to measure the severity of withdrawal symptoms. Anxiety symptoms assessments were made at 0 day (baseline), the day 5 (middle), and the day 10 (end) by the Hamilton anxiety scale (HAMA). Symptoms were assessed before and 1 h or 2 h after medication each day. The total withdrawal symptoms scores and the daily reduction rate were used to measure the effect of Ji-Tai tablet vs Ji- Tai tablet plus buprenorphine. Safety evaluation was carried out by the following measures: baseline of treatment, drug side effects after the treatment, vital signs (blood pressure, heart rate, and respiration rate), laboratory examination (routine blood and urine tests and the liver and kidney function tests), and electrocardiograms. RESULTS: A total of 142 mild heroin dependence patients performed the experiments (including 48 in the Ji-Tai tablet group, 48 in the Ji-Tai tablet with buprenorphine group and 46 in the control group). The scores of baseline withdrawal symptoms were 43.520±19.786, 42.640±17.648 and 47.100±24.450, respectively, with no significant differences among the 3 groups (all P>0.05 ). During the 10-day treatment, the reduction rate of acute withdrawal symptoms scores increased daily, the acute withdrawal syndrome scores and the anxiety symptoms scores declined from day 0 to day 10, there was also no significant difference among the 3 groups (all P>0.05). Ji-Tai tablet did not affect vital signs such as blood pressure, heart rate, and respiration rate. CONCLUSION Ji-Tai tablet or Ji-Tai tablet combined with buprenorphine had no effect on acute withdrawal symptoms of mild heroin dependence.
