Objective To study the levels of Urotensin Ⅱ(UⅡ)in the different grades of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome(OSAHS)patients and the correlation of UⅡ to OSAHS.Methods Seventy-five OSAHS patients were divided into five groups according to light,medium,serious AHI,simple snorers and normal part;UⅡ levels of the plasma were measured and correlation analysed.Results UⅡ levels:light group(10.44?4.12)ng/L、medium group(38.55?15.8)ng/L、serious group(94.78?19.63)ng/L、simple snorers group(1.37?0.42)ng/L、normal group(1.14?0.65)ng/L.Statistic difference existed among these groups(P

Many factors can result in X ray film overthick and overthin in medical X-ray radiation.In order to ensure the correctness of diagnosis and the focus can be presented at the proper time,it is very im- portant for the overthick and overthin film to be processed and corrected.It has been proved through the test that the satisfied result can be reached through the proper regulating measure such as making a copy of a film.

Neurotrophic factor activates signal pathways of intracellular phosphoinositide 3-kinase and extracellular signal-regulated kinase after acting on Trk receptor tyrosine kinase.It promotes the survival and differentiation of neurons.The development of small molecule Trk agonists of non-peptides and neurotrophic factor simulants can avoid a number of shortcomings of neurotrophic factors while agitating trk receptor signal transduction.It may provide a novel therapeutic approach for the treatment of nervous system diseases.

Objective To observe the effect of remifentanil combined with propofol to induce and sustain controlled hypotension in children during endoscopic sinus surgery(ESS). Methods Forty ASA Ⅰ children undergoing adenoidectomy in ESS were divided into control group and controlled hypotension group by random digits table with 20 cases in each group. No controlled hypotension in control group. Anesthesia was induced with propofol,remifentanil and atracurium, and maintained with continuous infusion of propofol 2 min until the target mean arterial pressure (MAP)(55 - 60 mm Hg, 1 mm Hg = 0.133 kPa) was reached,and MAP was maintained at this level during operation in controlled hypotension group. During 15 min before surgical procedure pharynx nasalis blood flow was measured and recorded with laser Dopper flowmetry continuously. The quality of the surgical field in term of blood loss and dryness was established at 15 min after operation starting. Results Controlled hypotension was induced within (2.5 ± 0.3 ) min, the infusion rate ofMAP and heart rate at 15 min after controlled hypotension and 15 min after operation starting were significantly lower than those at controlled hypotension instantly in controlled hypotension group and control group (P ＜ 0.05 ). The pharynx nasalis blood flow decreased at 15 min after controlled hypotension from baseline [(68.3 ± 8.3 )% vs. (99.8 ± 7.9 )%] (P ＜ 0.05 ). The operation time and the quality of the surgical field in term of blood loss and dryness in controlled hypotension group were better than those in control group [(21 ± 4) min vs. (32 ± 6) min and ( 1.8 ± 0.1 ) scores vs. (3.5 ± 0.5) scores] (P ＜ 0.05 ). The awakeextubate time was within 10 min in two groups, and there were no anesthesia related complications.Conclusion Remifentanil combined with propefol can induce and sustain controlled hypotension,reduce pharynx nasal is blood flow and provide good surgical conditions in children for ESS.

Successful pain management of perioperative shoulder arthroscopy may allow patients to go home earlier, improve the quality of life in perioperative period, and facilitate rehabilitation. A comprehensive method to perioperative pain control has three stages including preoperative, intraoperative and postoperative phase. Successful pain reduction should begin preoperatively because of an excellent communication between patient and physician, moreover, preoperative analgesia also should be administered. Intraoperative efforts should include local wound infiltration and the administration of anesthetic medication intra-articularly. Postoperative management should include oral analgesics, constant infusion devices, Patient Controlled Analgesia (PCA), sedative-hypnotic drug, continuous cryotherapy and vicarious treatment.
