Objective To observe the occurrence of cardiovascular adverse events in patients undergoing mechanical ventilation with dexmedetomidine sedation,and to evaluate its safety in intensive care unit (ICU).Methods A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted.Adult critical patients undergoing mechanical ventilation over 48 hours admitted to ICU of Zigong First People's Hospital in Sichuan Province were enrolled.The patients were divided into dexmedetomidine group (Dex group) and midazolam group (Mid group) according to the randomise number generated by computer.The patients in both groups were given slow intravenous infusion of 0.05 mg/kg midazolam and 1-2 μg/kg fentanyl to induce anesthesia before tracheal intubation,followed by 0.06 mg· kg-1· h-1 midazolam and 20-50 μg· kg-1 · h-1 fentanyl or 0.1-0.2 μg· kg-1 · h-1 sufentanil for continuous intravenous pumping to maintain analgesia and sedation;on the next day,the patients in Dex group was given dexmedetomidine (with the initial dose of 0.4 μg· kg-1 · h-1,and maintenance dose of 0.1-0.7 μg· kg-1 · h-1),and midazolam was stopped half an hour later;the original sedation and analgesia plan remained unchanged in Mid group.The goal of sedation was to maintain a Richmond agitation-sedation scale (RASS) score of-2 to 1 or a Ramsay sedation score of 3 to 4;patients were given midazolam if obvious agitation occurred,in combination with propofol for sedation if necessary;wakeup test was performed every day.Observation endpoints included patients discharged from ICU,death or mechanical ventilation over 28 days.Occurrence of cardiovascular adverse events during sedation such as hypertension,hypotension,bradycardia,tachycardia and arrhythmia,dose of sedatives and analgesics,duration of mechanical ventilation,length of ICU stay and 28-day mortality were observed in two groups.Results A total of 383 patients were enrolled,with 190 patients in Dex group and 193 in Mid group.There was no statistically significant difference in general data such as gender,age,acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score and predicted mortality between two groups.Doses of midazolam,propofol and fentanyl in Dex group were reduced as compared with those of Mid group,while the dose of sufentanil was similar in two groups.The Ramsay score and RASS score of Dex group were significantly reduced as compared with those of Mid group (3.34± 0.63 vs.3.95 ± 0.86,-1.33 ±0.87 vs.-1.98 ± 1.27,both P ＜ 0.01).Bradycardia was prominent in Dex group,which was observed in more than half of patients at the beginning of the treatment (1-2 hours),but the patients requiring isoprenaline treatment for heart rate lower than 50 bpm were less than that of Mid group (3.7％ vs.5.2％,x 2 =0.506,P =0.477).The incidences of hypotension (45.3％ vs.68.4％),tachycardia (16.3％ vs.33.7％) and arrhythmia (14.7％ vs.31.1％) in Dex group were significantly lower than those of Mid group (all P ＜ 0.01),and no other cardiovascular adverse events such as cardiac arrest,sinus arrest,hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia were observed in two groups.There was no statistically significant difference in duration of mechanical ventilation between Dex group and Mid group [days:5 (2,28) vs.4 (2,56),Z =-1.917,P =0.055],but compared with Mid group,the length of ICU stay in Dex group was significantly prolonged [days:9 (2,67) vs.6 (2,57),Z =-4.302,P =0.000],and the 28-day mortality in Dex group was significantly reduced (22.6％ vs.44.6％,x2 =20.610,P =0.000).Conclusion Long time dexmedetomidine sedation is safe in critical patients undergoing mechanical ventilation,which can significantly reduce cardiovascular adverse events except bradycardia,and lower the 28-day mortality.

Objectives: To observe the roles of nuclear factor ?B(NF ?B) in corticosterone injured hippocampal neurons. Methods:Two groups of primary hippocampal neurons were cultured for 8～10 days. One group was treated with 1?10 -5 mol/L corticosterone. The total cellular nuclear protein levels were extracted at 0.5,1,2 and 4 hours, respectively. Electrophoresis mobility shift assay (EMSA) was used to detect the expression of NF ?B activation. Another group was treated with ?B decoy DNA(25 ?mol/L) to inhibit the activity of NF ?B for 2 hours before 1?10 -5 mol/L corticosterone was intervened. MTT was used to observe the effects of corticosterone induced neurons injury after 6,12,24 and 48 hours. Results:The activity of NF ?B became significantly lower than that in the control group after corticosterone acted on neurons for 1 hour. As time went on, its effects became more conspicuously. The injury of hippocampal neurons aggravated when the activity of NF ?B was inhibited by ?B decoy DNA. Conclusions: NF ?B plays a protective role in corticosterone induced hippocampal neuron injury.

Objective To explore the surgical indication,diagnosis and treatment of suspected pancreatic cystic lesions.Methods To-tally 341 patients were admitted into our hospital because of pancreatic cystic lesions from October 2010 to October 2015.Except the 278 confirmed cases,the clinical data of the rest 63 patients with vague diagnosis were retrospectively analyzed.Results The surgical indication of pancreatic cystic lesions were:the lesion diameter was more than 4 cm;the imaging diagnosis was malignant;the lesion was combined with obvious clinical symptoms which can not explain with other diseases;there were asymptomatic pancreatic cystic lesion and main pancre-atic duct dilation without surgical risk factors;the follow-up showed that the desease is in development.Endoscopic ultrasonography guided fine needle aspiration is a useful supplement for more accurate diagnosis.However,it is an uncertain diagnostic value currently.Conclusion Diameter of lesion,uncertain imaging diagnosis,severe abdominal symptoms,obstructive jaundice and abnormal serum tumor markers are the surgical indication for patients.

Objective To investigate the stress distribution in a cemented femoral component in elderly patients with a partial marrow type Ⅰ intertrochanteric fractures and to compare differences in the stress distribution after a long-and short-stem prosthetic replacement.Methods Spiral CT images of right femur of the volunteer were obtained and processed with Mimics software and modeling software to reconstruct a three-dimensional model of the femur.Based on this,a three-dimensional physical model for partial marrow type Ⅰ intertrochanteric fractures,long-and short-stem femoral prostheses,and cement mantle was established.Subsequently,a three-dimensional finite element model of long-and short-stem prosthetic replacement for intertrochanteric fractures was established using the finite element analysis software,and biomechanical analysis was implemented for the model.Results No significant changes in stress distribution of the femur occurred after long-or short-stem prosthetic replacement.Stress on the femur still presented a gradual increase from the proximal end to the distal end,peaked at the lower 1/3 of the medial and lateral junction and then decreased at the end.A stress concentration zone formed in the medial and lateral end of cement-stem interface in short-stem prosthetic replacement.Besides,the maximum value of stress in the lateral interface reached 15.3 MPa,but without surpassing the fatigue strength of the bone cement.Whereas,a stress concentration zone formed in the distal medial and lateral part of cement-stem interface and the medial middle part of the interface in long-stem prosthetic replacement and the maximum value was also lower than the fatigue strength of bone cement.No significant stress concentration zones were found in the femoral calcar reconstructed using bone cement.Conclusions Cemented long-or short-stem prosthetic replacement achieves no significant alteration in stress distribution of the femur.Loosening probability of the cemented long-or short-stem prosthesis is almost the same,but the latter has advantages of shorter surgery time,minor trauma,and fewer complications and may be more suitable for treatment of the elderly patients with a partial marrow type Ⅰ intertrochanteric fractures.

Objective To measure the nursing workload in ICU,and provide the basis for the scientific distribution of human resources and reasonable scheduling in ICU.Methods ICU patients of the First and Third People's Hospital of Zigong from July to September,2011 were selected.The TISS-28 and NAS were applied to measure the nursing workload in the ICU.The number of staff nurses on each day and on each shift was recorded.Results The total nursing workload and the per capita nursing workload for each day in a week showed no significant difference,and the per capita nursing workload of different shifts and the needs of nurse-patient ratio of different patients in ICU were significantly different.Conclusions The allocation of nursing staff should be balance for each day in a week and different shifts for each day.The configuration of the nursing human resources should be based on actual nursing workload,no only considering the species of the diseases,the disease condition,self-care ability and cooperation of the patients,but also the proficiency of nurse skills.
