Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of multimodal postoperative analgesia of thoracotomy for malignant tumor excision.Method Sixty patients undergoing thoracotomy for malignant tumor excision were recuited.They were randomized into four groups:group A receiving single flurbiprofen axetil injection,group B using electronic analgesia pump for sufentanil PCIA,group C using electronic analgesia pump for dezocine PCIA and group D receiving sufentanil controlled by PCA-TCI system.Vital signs,artery lood gas analysis,PrinceHenry score,Ramsay score,remedial measure and untoward reactions were recorded.Results The falling down degree of Prince-Henry score of Group D was higher than those of Groups A,B and C (P ＜ 0.05).Reduction of Ramsay score of Group D was higher than those of Groups A,B and C (P ＜ 0.05).The number of the patients in Group D not undergoing Bolus remedial measure was larger than that of those in Groups B and C (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion When referring to the effectiveness and safety of the models administrated the thoracotomy for malignant tumors excision,the analgesia model of PC A-TCI sufentanil (plasma target concentration:0.12～ 0.14 ng/ mL) used in Group D is superior to other models used in Groups A,B and C.Moreover,individual analgesia can be reached by the PCA-TCI sufentanil model.

Objective To investigate the relationship between isolated nocturnal hypertension and left ventricular hypertrophy. Methods In the inhabitants of 14 villages in Jingning County, Zhejiang Province, we performed 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure monitoring with SpaceLab monitors and measured 12-lead resting electrocardiogram using an electronic recording system of GE company, Left ventrieular hypertrophy was diagnosed with the criteria of Sokolow-Lyon voltage amplitude and Cornell product. Isolated nocturnal hypertension was defined as a nighttime ( from 22:00 to 4:00) blood pressure of ≥ 120/70 mm Hg( 1 mm Hg = 0. 133 kPa). Isolated daytime ( from 8:00 to 18:00) hypertension was a diurnal blood pressure of ≥ 135/85 nun Hg. When both conditions were present or absent, subjects were classified either as having combined day-night hypertension or as normotensive on ambulatory measurement. Analysis of variance and multiple regressions were used for statistical analysis. Results 647 participants (53.9% being female,average age 47. 8 years) included 72 patients with isolated nocturnal hypertension, 33 with isolated daytime hypertension and 248 with day-night sustained hypertension. Compared with normotensive subjects, patients with isolated nocturnal hypertension and day-night sustained hypertension had a higher Sokoiow-Lyon voltage amplitude and Comell product. However, after adjustment for sex, age, body mass index, drinking and smoking habits, serum total cholesterol, fasting blood glucose and the use of antihypertensive drugs, only day-night hypertensive patients had a significantly higher Sokolow-Lyon voltage (32. 8 mV, P =0. 0003 ) and Cornell product (1371 mV×ms, P =0.0004) than normotensive subjects (29.0 mV, 1114 mV×ms).Regardless of whether Sokolow-Lyon or Cornell criteria were used, both nighttime and daytime systolic and diastolic blood pressure were independent risk factors of left ventricular hypertrophy (P < 0. 01 ). However,the prevalence of left ventricular hypertrophy in patients with isolated nocturnal hypertension ( 23.6% ) study was not statistically different from that in normotensives ( 17.4%, P = 0. 24). Conclusion In our current cross-sectional study, isolated nocturnal hypertension was not independently related to left ventricular hypertrophy diagnosed with ECG criteria.

Objective To investigate the clinical effects of the Viscoat viscoelastic combined with soft corneal contact lens for central corneal perforation.Methods Six cases were collected and treated with corneal local debridement of which diameter were less than 2.0 mm.Six cases received Viscoat viscoelastic injection into their anterior chamber.And then soft corneal contact lens were worn.The curative effect indicators such as patients' symptom,visual acuity,slit lamp examination,intraocular pressure,confocal microscope and corneal endothelial cell counts were recorded in the follow-up periods.Results All the cases were healed with the recovery time of 1 month to 2 months;After treatment,the best corrected visual acuity of patients were increased to 0.6-0.8 and average corneal endothelial cell count was (3415.5 ±279.5)mm-2.No obvious scar was left in the cornea and no serious complicatious occurred during treatment.Conclusion For traumatic corneal central perforation with diameter is 2.0 mm or less can be treated with Viscoat viscoelastic combined with soft corneal contact lens.This therapy is worthy of popularize since it's satisfied prognosis and less economic burden.

Objective: This study uses structural magnetic resonance imaging to explore changes in the cerebellar lobules in patients with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and further analyze the correlation between cerebellar structural changes and clinical symptoms of ASD. Methods: A total of 75 patients with ASD and 97 typically developing (TD) subjects from Autism Brain Imaging Data Exchange dataset were recruited. We adopted an advanced automatic cerebellar lobule segmentation technique called CEREbellum Segmentation to segment each cerebellar hemisphere into 12 lobules. Normalized cortical thickness of each lobule was recorded, and group differences in the cortical measures were evaluated. Correlation analysis was also performed between the normalized cortical thickness and the score of Autism Diagnostic Interview-Revised. Results: Results from analysis of variance showed that the normalized cortical thickness of the ASD group differed significantly from that of the TD group; specifically, the ASD group had lower normalized cortical thickness than the TD group. Post-hoc analysis revealed that the differences were more predominant in the left lobule VI, left lobule Crus I and left lobule X, and in the right lobule VI and right lobule Crus I. Lowered normalized cortical thickness in the left lobule Crus I in the ASD patients correlated positively with the abnormality of development evident at or before 36 months subscore. Conclusion These results suggest abnormal development of cerebellar lobule structures in ASD patients, and such abnormality might significantly influence the pathogenesis of ASD. These findings provide new insights into the neural mechanisms of ASD, which may be clinically relevant to ASD diagnosis.

To explore the immunomodulatory effects of interleukin-17 (IL-17) on acute lung injury (ALI) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Methods Thirty-six SPF-class C57BL/6 mice were divided into normal saline control group (NS group) and LPS-induced ALI model group (LPS group, LPS 5 mg/kg intratracheal drip) according to random number table method, with 18 mice in each group. Six mice were sacrificed at 2, 6 and 24 hours after model reproduction, and peripheral blood, lung and spleen tissues were harvested. After staining with hematoxylin-eosin (HE), the pathological changes of lung tissue were observed under microscope and the infiltration level of lymphocytes, neutrophils and macrophages in the alveolar wall and tracheal wall were detected. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the protein expression of IL-17 in alveolar wall and tracheal wall, and the correlation between IL-17 expression and lymphocytes, neutrophils and macrophages infiltration in alveolar wall and tracheal wall were analyzed. The level of IL-17 in lung tissue homogenate was determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Flow cytometry was used to detect the proportion of CD4+IL-17+ helper T cells (Th17 cells) in CD4+ T cells in peripheral blood, lung tissue and spleen tissue. Results ① Microscopy showed that the lung tissue structure of NS group was basically normal at each time after model reproduction, and there was no obvious inflammatory cell infiltration, while the lung tissue edema and inflammatory reaction were gradually aggravated in the LPS group, and the lung injury score was significantly higher than that in NS group at each time (2 hours: 4.47±1.42 vs. 1.10±0.55, 6 hours: 7.93±2.14 vs. 1.23±0.50, 24 hours:12.67±2.67 vs. 1.20±0.61, all P < 0.01). ② Immunohistochemistry showed that the protein expression of IL-17 in alveolar wall and tracheal wall of LPS group increased gradually with time, while that in NS group was negative or weak positive. Quantitative analysis showed that the immunohistochemical staining score of IL-17 protein in alveolar wall and tracheal wall of LPS group were higher than those of NS group (alveolar wall: 2.70±1.40 vs. 0.90±0.37 at 2 hours, 5.10±1.76 vs. 1.17±0.59 at 6 hours, 9.67±1.32 vs. 1.10±0.45 at 24 hours; tracheal wall: 2.87±0.89 vs. 0.90±0.39 at 2 hours, 4.97±1.48 vs. 1.10±0.41 at 6 hours, 8.67±1.54 vs. 1.03±0.29 at 24 hours; all P < 0.05). ③ Correlation analysis showed that the protein expression of IL-17 in alveolar wall and tracheal wall were positively correlated with the degree of lymphocyte, neutrophil and macrophage infiltration (alveolar wall: r value was 0.632, 0.550, 0.466; tracheal wall: r value was 0.695, 0.662, 0.575, respectively; all P < 0.01). ④ IL-17 content (μg/L) in lung tissue homogenate was significantly higher than that in NS group at each time after model reproduction (2 hours: 1.37±0.14 vs. 1.01±0.18, 6 hours: 1.65±0.19 vs. 1.11±0.18, 24 hours: 1.92±0.36 vs. 1.17±0.24, all P < 0.01). ⑤ The proportion of Th17 cells in the peripheral blood, lung tissue and spleen tissue of the LPS group were higher than those of the NS group at each time after model reproduction [peripheral blood: (2.62±0.62)% vs. (1.42±0.40)% at 2 hours, (3.74±0.43)% vs. (1.27±0.32)% at 6 hours, (4.44±0.65)% vs. (1.59±0.45)% at 24 hours; lung tissue: (2.32±0.44)% vs. (1.50±0.25)% at 2 hours, (3.66±0.36)% vs. (1.33±0.24)% at 6 hours, (4.60±0.54)% vs. (1.60±0.27)% at 24 hours; spleen tissue: (1.49±0.36)% vs. (0.69±0.21)% at 2 hours, (2.58±0.55)% vs. (0.59±0.18)% at 6 hours, (3.76±0.57)% vs. (0.65±0.26)% at 24 hours; all P < 0.01]. Conclusion IL-17 is involved in the inflammatory immune regulation of ALI mice.

Objective To investigate the effects of parenteral nutrition with ω-3 fatty acids on nutrition,inflammatory response,immunity and prognosis in criticallyill cancer patients.Methods 60 critically ill cancer patients were randomly divided into study group and the control group,30 cases each.All Patients were given isonitrogen and isocalorie enteral and parenteral nutrition for 2 weeks,which added ω-3 fatty acids in the study group by parenteral nutrition.The indicators of nutrition,inflammation,immune function were detected weekly.prognostic indicators (mortality,intensive care unit [ICU] length of stay,infectious complications) were compared.Results The indicators of nutrition,inflammatory reaction and immune function of study group were significantly improved than control group,and length of stay in ICU of study group was shorter than control group.There were less mortality and morbidity of infection complications in the study group compared with control group,but difference were not significant (P =0.13 and P=0.165).Conclusion ω-3 fatty acids supplementation of parenteral nutrition in critically ill cancer patients can improve nutritional status and immune function,reduce inflammatory response,shorten ICU length of stay,but not significantly improve ICU mortality and reduce infectious complications.

Objective: To compare the value of two 3D imaging reconstruction methods for left atria and pulmonary vein on guiding the catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF). Methods: From January 2014 to January 2017, a total of 100 drug refractory paroxysmal AF patients were divided into left atria direct angiography group (n=50), and indirect angiography group (n=50). 3D CARTO system was applied for mapping and guiding the ablation procedure. Patients assigned to direct angiography group were treated as follows: intraoperative puncture of atrial septum, inject contrast agent directly into the left atrium, conduct left atrial and pulmonary venous rotation angiography, reconstruct three-dimensional image, integrate the image into real-time X-ray system to facilitate circumferential pulmonary vein isolation. Patients assigned into the indirect angiography group were treated as follows: inject contrast agent through the right ventricle, conduct delayed rotation angiography of the left atria and pulmonary vein to guide circumferential pulmonary vein fixation and ablation. The left atrial and pulmonary venous image acquisition, the operation and X-ray exposure time, the success rate and the incidence of complication of the two groups were compared. The patients were followed up for 3-6 months. Results: General clinical characteristics of the two groups were similar(all P>0.05). Ablation was successful in all 100 patients. The operation time[(112.0±21.4)min vs. (134.0±24.3)min]and X-ray exposure time((10.7±4.7)min vs. (15.8±5.2)min)were significantly lower in direct angiography group than in indirect angiography group (both P<0.01). There was no significant difference between the two groups in the immediate (86%(43/50) vs. 82%(41/50), P=0.59) and short-term (76%(38/50) vs. 72%(36/50), P=0.65) success rate and complication rate (1 aneurysm in the direct angiography group, 1 pericardial tamponade in the indirect angiography group). In-hospital mortality was zero percent. Conclusion It is safe and effective method to guide the radiofrequency catheter ablation of paroxysmal atrial fibrillation by reconstruction 3D image of left atrium and pulmonary vein. Compared with indirect angiography group, direct angiography group can improve the imaging quality of left atrium and pulmonary vein, decrease the X-ray exposure time of the ablation procedure.
