Objective Controlled hypotension induced by different drugs may have different effects on splanchnic perfusion. The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of nicardipine- induced hypotension on splanchnic perfusion. Methods Twenty-three ASA Ⅰ-Ⅱ patients (14 male, 9 female) aged 21-60 yr undergoing meningioma resection were studied. The patients were premedicated with ranitidine 150 mg per os and atropine 0.5 mg i.m. Anesthesia was induced with propofol 1.5-2.0 mg?kg-1 , fentany1 2.0?g?kg-1 and vecuronium 0.1 mg? kg-1 and maintained with isoflurane inhalation and intermittent i. v. boluses of fentanyl and vecuronium. The patients were mechanically ventilated after tracheal intubation and PETCO2 was maintained at 33-35 mm Hg. Nicardipine-induced hypotension started from opening of mininges to the resection of tumor. 0.01% nicardipine infusion was started at 30 ml?h-1 and adjusted to reduce systolic blood pressure by 30% of the baseline or MAP to≥60 mm Hg. The adequacy of splanchnic perfusion was defined by gastric intramucosal CO2 tension (PgCO2), the intramucosal pH (pHi) and the difference between intramucosal and arterial PCO2(PCO2 gap) and was assessed before induction of anesthesia, the 1st, 2nd and 3rd hour during controlled hypotension and 1, 2 hour after termination of controlled hypotension. Results The MAP was maintained at about 62 mm Hg during controlled hypotension. The heart rate was stable. Hct was significantly decreased at 1st, 2nd and 3rd hour of hypotension compared with baseline but the mean Hct was greater than 30% . The intramucosal pH decreased slightly with no statistical significance and pHa, PaCO2 , PgCO2 and PCO2 gap were almost unchanged during controlled hypotension compared with the baseline values. Conclusion Nicardipine-induced hypotension is safe when MAP is maintained at≥60 mm Hg and has no adverse effects on splanchnic perfusion.

In order to observe the changes of myotension in the paralyzed limbs after subcutaneous injection(S.C)of capsaicin,we observed the changes of the spontaneous Electromyography(EMG)recorded in the quadriceps femoris before and after T-5 level spinal transection and found that the amplitude of EMG kept a low level in normal rats but increased progressively after operation.After treating the animals with capsaicin 200mg/kg(S.C)in three consecutive days,we found a much lower spontaneous EMG and a much higher pain threshold than that of the controls.Radioimmunnoassay detected that the content of SP in spinal dorsal horn was reduced by 38.4%,the general condition did not severely changed during the experiment.The results indicate that SP in the spinal dorsal horn participates in the regulation of myotension,and it is suggested that subcutancous injection of capsaicin may be one effective treatment to reduce the hypermyotension in the paralyzed limbs.

Background:Conventional gastrointestinal endoscopy is incapable of determining the deriving layers,size and nature of submucosal lesions,however,mini probe ultrasonography(MPS)is effective for mural stratification and determining the deriving layers and nature of lesions within gastrointestinal wall,and is considered to be an optimal examination for suspected submucosal tumors before endoscopic or surgical operation. Aims:To assess the diagnostic value of MPS for gastrointestinal submucosal lesions and the significance of MPS-assisted endoscopic therapy. Methods:A total of 69 patients with presumed gastrointestinal submucosal protruded lesions were retrospectively enrolled. All of them underwent MPS and then endoscopic therapy,such as cyst incision,high frequency electric snare resection,endoscopic mucosal resection and endoscopic submucosal dissection were performed according to the deriving layers,size and nature determined by MPS. The ultimate diagnosis was confirmed by histopathological examination. Results:In the 69 cases of lesions,MPS showed that 15 were derived from muscularis mucosa,40 from submucosa,and 14 from muscularis propria;10 of them were considered as cyst,18 were stromal tumor,8 were leiomyoma,6 were ectopic pancreas,15 were neuroendocrine tumor,and 12 were lipoma. Compared with pathological diagnosis,an overall coincidence rate of 91. 3%(63 / 69)was achieved by MPS. Conclusions:The accuracy rate of MPS is high for determining the deriving layers and nature of gastrointestinal submucosal protruded lesions prior to the attempting of endoscopic removal. It might be helpful for selecting treatment modalities for this kind of lesions.

ObjectiveTo compare the neonatal outcomes between infants of assisted conception (AC) and natural conception (NC). Methods A prospective case-control study was conducted.Eligible mothers were invited to this study at 28 weeks of gestation and were followed up to delivery.All newborns were examined by pediatricians right after birth.Data including gestational age,birth weight,admission to neonatal intensive care unit (NICU),and presence of any major malformation were collected.Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS 13.0.Difference between two groups was compared by x2 test. ResultsSix hundred and seventy-three newborns were enrolled into this study,including 325 in AC group and 348 in NC group.There were no differences between the demographic characteristics of the two groups,including maternal age,parents' education,family income and proportion of primipara (P>0.05).The incidences of twins (32.62% vs 3.45%,x2 =98.88),preterm birth (30.46% vs 7.76%,x2=56.92),low birth weight infant (32.31% vs 8.91%,x2 =57.07)and admission to neonatal intensive care unit (27.38% vs 8.91%,x2 =39.16) and proportion of cesarean birth (62.77% vs 21.55%,x2=117.64) in AC group were significantly higher than in NC group (all P<0.01),except for the incidence of birth defect (4.62% vs 2.59%,x2=2.01,P> 0.05).However,no significant differences was found in the above items when only singletons were compared between the two groups (P>0.05),except for the cesarean section rate (61.18% vs 22.03%,x2 =100.93,P<0.01).There were no difference in any of the above neonatal outcomes when different assisted reproductive technologies applied were compared(in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer,intracytoplasmic sperm injection and frozen embryo transfer) (P>0.05).Conclusions Neonatal outcome after assisted conception is a bit worse than natural conception,which might mainly due to the large proportion of multiple pregnancy after assisted conception.In order to improve neonatal outcome after assisted conception,the number of embryos transferred should be limited.
