Objective To assess the influence of changes in alveolar ventilation on gastro-intestinal perfusion measured via a nasogastric tonometer.Methods Sixteen ASA Ⅰ - Ⅱ patients ( 7 male, 9 female) aged 15-67 yr, undergoing elective intracranial operation were included in this study. The patients were premedicated with oral ranitidine 150 mg and intramuscular phenobarbital 0.1 g and atropine 0.5 mg. Anesthesia was induced with midazolam 1-2 mg, fentanyl 2 ?g? kg-1 , propofol 1.5-2.0 mg ? kg-1 and vecuronium 0.1 mg ? kg-1 , and maintained with 0.5%-2.0% isoflurane inhalation and intermittent iv boluses of fentanyl and vecuronium. The patients were intubated and mechanically ventilated after induction of anesthesia. The ventilatory settings were : RR 10 bpm; FGF 1 L? min-1; I: E = 1:2; the initial VT was 7 ml? kg-1 (T1 ) which was gradually increased to 8 ml ?kg-1(T2), 9ml?kg-1(T3) and 10 ml?kg-1 (T4) and then returned to 7 ml ? kg-1 again. Each VT was maintained for 1 h. A nasogastric tonometer (Tonocap, Datex-Ohmeda, Finland) was inserted into stomach and automatically measured gastric intramucosal CO2 tension (PgCO2) every 10 min. Radial artery was cannulated for direct MAP monitoring and blood sampling. Blood gas analysis was performed every hour at various VT levels. Gastric-to-arterial pH gap and gastric-to-arterial PCO2 gap [P(g-a)CO2] were calculated.Results PgCO2 decreased during T2_4 (hyperventilation phase) (P

Objective The present study was designed to compare the effects of different intra-abdominal pressure and the duration of pneumoperitoneum on splanchnic perfusion during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods Fifty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged

A sandwich format immunochromatographic assay for detecting foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) serotypes was developed. In this rapid test, affinity purified polyclonal antibodies from Guinea pigs which were immunized with sucking-mouse adapted FMD virus (A/AV88(L) strain) were conjugated to colloidal gold beads and used as the capture antibody, and affinity purified polyclonal antibodies from rabbits which were immunized with cell-culture adapted FMD virus (A/CHA/09 strain) were used as detector antibody. On the nitrocellulose membrane of the immunochromatographic strip, the capture antibody was laid on a sample pad, the detector antibody was printed at the test line(T) and goat anti-guinea pigs IgG antibodies were immobilized to the control line(C). The lower detection limit of the test for a FMDV 146S antigen is 11.7ng/ml as determined in serial tests after the strip device was assembled and the assay condition optimization. No cross reactions were found with FMDV serotype C, Swine vesicular disease (SVD), Vesicular stomatiti svirus (VSV) and vesicular exanthema of swine virus (VES) viral antigens with this rapid test. Clinically, the diagnostic sensitivity of this test for FMDV serotypes A was 88.7% which is as same as an indirect-sandwich ELISA. The specificity of this strip test was 98.2% and is comparable to the 98.7% obtained with indirect-sandwich ELISA. This rapid strip test is simple, easy and fast for clinical testing on field sites;no special instruments and skills are required, and the result can be obtained within 15 min. To our knowledge, this is the first rapid immunochromatogarpic assay for serotype A of FMDV.

ObjectiveTo study the effects of oral administration of mannitol and intramuscular injection of anisodamine in magnetic resonance enteroclysis.Methods After complete intestinal cleaning,29 patients undergoing magnetic resonance enteroclysis were orally administered with 5% oral isotonic mannitol solution 2000 mL and treated with intramuscular injection of anisodamine before the operation.The adverse reactions were observed,the image quality was inspected and the dilatation of small bowel was detected.Results All of the patients lived through the magnetic resonance enteroclysis.Two patients contracted Crohn’s disease with mild nausea consciousness.Conclusion For magnetic resonance imaging,preoperative oral administration of 2.5% oral isotonic mannitol solution and intramuscular injection of anisodamine after complete intestinal cleaning is beneficial for fully expanding the small intestine,achieving quality imaging and therefore improving the diagnosis of small intestinal lesions.

ObjectiveTo investigate the long term effect of different antihypertensive agents on renal hemodynamics with ultrasound Doppler.Methods52 essential hypertensive patients were divided into three groups according to the antihypertensive agent they took: angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitor (ACEI), calcium channel blocker (CCB) and β-adrenoceptor blocker (βB). The blood pressures of right upper arms were measured with mercury column blood pressure gauge using Korotkoff method. Renal hemodynamics were examined with ultrasound Doppler before and after treatment with agents. ResultsSystolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) of all patients were decreased significantly. An significant correlation was found between the deceases of blood pressure and the betterment of renal homodynamic parameters in ACEI and CCB groups, but not in βB group. ConclusionTo a degree, the betterment of renal hemodynamics is correlation with the reduction of systemic blood pressure and mechanism of action of antihypertensive agents.

Objective To evaluate the clinical and radiographic characteristics and function of erosive hand osteoarthritis (EOA) patients. Methods Data were obtained from 19 patients with EOA, including their social conditions, clinical conditions, radiographic scores and hand function evaluation. The number of hand osteoarthritis (HOA) patients was 312. The control group consisted of non-EOA patients with hand osteoarthritis with a ratio of 4:1 to EOA patients. A non-parameter test analysis was performed. All data were analyzed by SPSS 23.0 statistical analysis, t test, χ2 test, Fisher exact probility and Spearman's correlations analysis were used for statistical analysis. Results Totally data of 19 patients were collected. Eighteen were female. Onset age was (56±8). Average duration was 56 (12~120) months. FIHOA scores of all the EOA patients were at least 5. All the erosions of 39 joints were characteristically central and erosive changes in 7 joints (18%) showed up as gull-wing. Among 39 erosive joints, including 12 (31%) E and 27 (69%) R, 34 (87%) distal interphalangeal joints were involved. Data analysis found out that EOA patients had longer disease duration (Z=2.610, P=0.009), more severe K-L level (44 ±11 vs 26 ±7, t=7.134, P<0.01), higher AUSCAN total score (28±6 vs 21±7, t=3.781, P<0.01) and higher AUSCAN function score (18±6 vs 12±6, t=4.042, P<0.01). The differences of ESR and CRP were not significant between EOA and non-EOA patients. Conclusion Erosions seen in EOA patients are centrally located gull-wing in the DIP joints. EOA patients have longer duration, more severe radiographic damage and worse joint function.

Since the Global Polio Eradication Initiative was launched by the World Health Assembly in 1988, significant progress has been made in global polio prevention and control. But the occurrence of vaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis cases and vaccine-derived poliovirus related cases have become a major challenge during the post-polio era. While coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19) has brought serious disease burden and economic burden to all countries in the world, prevention and control of vaccine-preventable infectious diseases such as polio should not be neglected under the background of the global common fight against COVID-19. Taking the type Ⅲ VDPV cycle event in Shanghai as an example, the paper discussed how to do a good job of routine inoculation under the prevention and control of COVID-19 to strictly prevent the outbreak of vaccine-preventable infectious diseases.
