Objective To determine postoperative resting energy expenditure ( REE) in children with congenital heart disease ( CHD) requiring open heart surgery , to compare measured resting energy expenditure (MREE) with current predictive equations (PEE), and to investigate the possible influencing factors on the metabolic status of the postoperative CHD children .Methods From February 2015 to June 2015 , 150 ventila-ted children admitted to the cardiac intensive care unit after surgery for congenital heart disease in Shanghai Children's Medical Center were enrolled consecutively .Indirect calorimetry ( IC) measurements were performed using metabolic cart 4 hours after surgery .General clinical data were recorded .Results Totally 104 male and 46 female patients were enrolled, with a median age of 14 months (8.3-36.0 months).The non-protein re-spiratory quotient of patient was 0.79 ±0.20, MREE was (264.76 ±61.74) kJ/(kg· d), and PEE using Schofield equations was (278.51 ±93.42) kJ/(kg· d).Although there was no significant differences (P=0.096 ) between MREE and PEE , the agreement was poor between them ( R2 =0.119 ) .Multivariate stepwise regression analysis showed that MREE had significant positive correlation with risk adjustment in congenital heart surgery (RACHS-1) score (P=0.012) and negative correlation with age (P=0.010).Up to 97.33%of children (146/150) had lower energy intake compared with MREE on the 1st postoperative day .Conclu-sions MREE does not increase after surgery in CHD children;however , the substrate utilization is influenced . Factors influencing the postoperative REE include RACHS-1 score and age.The energy intake at 1st day after surgery is generally lower than REE in these children .
3. Extra-axial medulloblastoma in cerebellopontine angle: A report of two cases and literature review
Journal of Jilin University(Medicine Edition) 2019;45(3):701-704
Objective: To investigate the clinical features of extra-axial medulloblastoma (MB) in the cerebellopontine angle (CPA) area and analyze the imaging features and clinical prognosis, and to provide the reference for its clinical diagnosis and treatment. Methods: The clinical data of two patients diagnosed as extra-axial MB in CPA area were collected; the literature review was performed, and the clinical characteristics, diagnostic and treatment methods were analyzed. Results: Two patients were admitted to the hospital due to headache accompanied by hearing loss. The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) results indicated a mass in the CPA area. All the two patients were treated with the cerebellopontine angle tumor resection. The operation of the two patients was successful, and the tumor located outside the axis seen in the operation, which was confirmed as MB by postoperative pathology. No recurrence or metastasis of tumor was found 15 months after follow-up. Conclusion: The possibility of MB should be considered before operation for the occupying lesions in the extra-axial CPA area. The active operation can improve the prognosis and prolong the survival of the patients.

Objective To investigate the effect of VPA and molecular hydrogen(H2)on phenotypes of microglia treated with hypoxia. Methods Mouse hypoxic BV2 microglia were treated with VPA or H2. The levels of phenotypic markers of supernatant and cells were detected by ELISA, flow cytometry and real?time PCR,respectively. Results Hypoxia significantly increased mRNA level of M1 marker(iNOS)and reduced mRNA levels of M2 markers(CD206 and TGF?β)in BV2(P<0.05). Besides,the ratio between the mRNA levels of M1 increased(P<0.05). VPA significantly reduced protein level(CD16/32)and mRNA production(iNOS)of M1 markers in hypoxia?treated BV2(P<0.05). The ratio be?tween the mRNA levels of M1 markers and M2 markers(CD16:CD206,CD32:CD206,iNOS:CD206 and iNOS:TGF?β)were also significantly decreased(P<0.05). H2 significantly reduced both protein levels(TNF?α,CD16/32 and iNOS)and mRNA production(iNOS)of M1 markers and increased secretion of M2 marker(IL?10)in hypoxia?treated BV2(P<0.05). The ratio between the mRNA levels of M1 markers and M2 markers(CD16:CD206,iNOS:CD206 and iNOS:TGF?β)were also highly declined(P<0.05). Conclusion Hypoxia can induce microglial cells toward pro?inflammatory phenotype. Both VPA and H2 can inhibit hypoxia?induced inflammatory effect on microglia.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of acupuncture combined with tropisetron in treating nausea and vomiting induced by carboprost tromethamine in cesarean section. Methods Sixty-six patients aged 22-40 yr who received carboprost tromethamine and developed nausea and vomiting during cesarean section under lumbar anesthesia, were randomly divided into 3 groups(n=22 each): acupuncture group (group A), tropisetron group(group T)and acupuncture+ tropisetron group(group AT). In group A, 09% normal saline 2 ml was intravenously injected immediately, acupuncture was given at Renzhong, Neiguan and Hegu acupoints with lifting thrusting twirling the acupuncture needle for 10 min. In group T, tropisetron 10 mg was intravenously injected immediately, the needle was placed on Renzhong, Neiguan and Hegu skin surface. In group AT, tropisetron 10 mg was intravenously injected immediately, acupunc-ture was given at Renzhong, Neiguan and Hegu acupoints with lifting thrusting twirling the acupuncture nee-dle for 10 min. The nausea and vomiting score was assessed before anesthesia induction(T0), when nause-a or vomiting occurred(T1)and at 1, 3, 5 and 15 min after acupuncture or administration(T1-5). The degree of patient′s satisfaction with therapeutic effect was recorded. Results Compared with group A, the nausea and vomiting scores were significantly decreased at T4, and the patient's satisfaction score was in-creased in group AT(P<005). Compared with group T, the nausea and vomiting scores were significantly decreased at T2-4and the patient's satisfaction score was increased in group AT(P <005). Conclusion Acupuncture combined with ondansetron can quickly and effectively relieve the nausea and vomiting induced by carboprost tromethamine during cesarean section.

Objective To investigate the potential therapeutic effect of luteolin on sepsis-induced ALI and the underlying mechanisms.Methods Total of 50 mice were randomly(random number) divided into five groups:a sham control group,a sepsis-induced ALI group,and three sepsis groups pre-treated with 20,40,and 80 mg/kg body weight luteolin.Mice in the treatment groups were pre-treated with luteolin at the respective oral dose two days before ALI induction.The lungs were isolated for histopathological examinations,and the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was collected for biochemical analyses.Results Luteolin significantly attenuated sepsis-induced ALI.Additionally,luteolin treatment decreased protein and inflammatory cytokine concentration and the number of infiltrated inflammatory cells in BALF compared with that in the non-treated sepsis mice.Pulmonary myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity was lower in the luteolin-pre-treated sepsis groups than in the sepsis group.The mechanism underlying the protective effect of luteolin on sepsis is related to the up-regulation of certain antioxidation genes,including inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS),cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2),superoxide dismutases (SODs),and heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1),and the reduction of inflammatory responses through blockage of the activation of the nuclear factor (NF)-κB pathway.Conclusions Luteolin pre-treatment inhibits sepsis-induced ALI through its anti-inflammatory and antioxidative activity,suggesting that luteolin may be a potential therapeutic agent for sepsis-induced ALI.

Objective:To evaluate the improved efficacy of transversus abdominal plane (TAP)-rectus sheath (RS) block combined with general anesthesia in the patients undergoing laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods:Fifty-six American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅰ-Ⅲ patients of both sexes, aged 45-64 yr, with body mass index of 18-25 kg/m 2, scheduled for elective laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy, were divided into 2 groups ( n=28 each) using a random number table method: general anesthesia group (group G) and TAP-RS block plus general anesthesia group (group TRG). In group TRG, after induction of general anesthesia, bilateral TAP-RS block was performed with 0.375% ropivacaine mixed with 0.5 μg/kg dexmedetomidine under ultrasound guidance, 20 ml was injected into the plane of bilateral transverse abdominis, and 10 ml was injected into the posterior sheath of the bilateral rectus abdominis, and the tube was placed on the plane of the transverse abdominis, and 5 ml/h was continuously pumped after operation.In both groups, anesthesia was induced with IV midazolam, sufentanil, etomiddate and cisatracurium besylate and maintained using combined intravenous-inhalational anesthesia, and patient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA) was performed after operation.Pulmonary function indexes were measured before induction of anesthesia (T 0) and at 6, 12 and 24 h after removal of the tracheal tube (T 1-3). Blood gas analysis was performed at T 0, T 2 and T 3.The occurrence of high/low blood pressure, tachycardia/bradycardia, consumption of opioids, PACU stay time, pressing times of PCIA within 24 h after surgery, rescue analgesia, time of passing the first flatus, the first postoperative off-bed time, length of postoperative hospital stay, and 48 h quality of recovery-40 (QoR-40) were recorded.The occurrence of adverse reactions and nerve block-related complications were recorded within 48 h after operation. Results:Conversion to laparotomy during operation was found in 4 patients, changing the scope of resection in 2 patients, and a total of 50 patients were enrolled in this study.Compared with group G, the pressing times of PCIA was significantly reduced, the requirement for postoperative rescue analgesia was decreased, the intraoperative consumption of sufentanil and remifentanil was reduced, the incidence of intraoperative hypertension and tachycardia was decreased, the FEV1, FVC and PEFR were increased at T 2, 3, the 48 h QoR-40 score was increased, the time of passing the first flatus, the first postoperative off-bed time, and length of postoperative hospital stay were shortened, the incidence of nausea, agitation, somnolence, and hypoxemia was decreased ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the indicators of blood gas analysis at each time point in group TRG ( P>0.05). Nerve block-related complications were not found in group TRG. Conclusion:Compared with general anesthesia alone, TAP-RS block combined with general anesthesia is helpful in carrying out anesthetic model of low-consumption opioids and improving the quality of early postoperative recovery when used in the patients undergoing laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy.
