China Pharmacy 2015;(23):3258-3260,3261
OBJECTIVE:To explore the safety,superiority and reliability of the application of dexmedetomidine-assisted con-trolled anti-hypertension combined with high capacity hemodilution in spinal surgeries. METHODS:40 patients with spinal surger-ies under general anesthesia were randomly divided into dexmedetomidine group (group D) and normal saline (group S) with 20 cases in each group. Both groups were given controlled anti-hypertension combined with high capacity hemodilution to carry out blood conservation and intraoperative wakeup experiment. Group D was given 1 μg/kg dexmedetomidine within 10 min by micro pump 10 min before anesthesia induction;maintained with 0.4-0.8 μg/(kg·h)during controlled anti-hypertension;injected with dex-medetomidine 0.2 μg/(kg·h) during wakeup experiment and anesthesia maintenance period until tracheal catheter was extracted. Group S was given normal saline instead,and the usage was same as group D. Heart rate (HR),mean arterial pressure (MAP) and central venous pressure(CVP)of patients were observed and recorded before pump injection of dexmedetomidine(T0),1 min after tracheal intubation(T1),10 min after anesthesia induction(T2),30 min after anesthesia induction(T3),wakeup(T4),at the end of controlled anti-hypertension(T5),at the end of operation(T6),during tracheal extubation(T7). Meanwhile,the wakeup ex-periment time,blood loss when wakeup,total amount of nitroglycerin,mean density of inhaled isoflurane,total amount of nitro-glycerin,total blood loss,and post-operative wakeup time of both groups were recorded. The case number of post-operative de-layed wakeup chill and dysphoria were calculated in both groups. RESULTS:Compared with at T0,HR of both groups at T1 and T7 were faster,and MAP and CVP increased,and that of group S was more significant than that of group D(P<0.05). HR and MAP of both groups at T3 were significantly lower than T0(P<0.05). Compared to group D at T4,MAP and CVP of group S at T4 were increased and HR were faster (P<0.05);the wakeup experiment time and post-operative wakeup time of group D were shorter than those of group S (P<0.05);the blood loss when awaken and total blood loss were less than group S (P<0.05);the total amount of nitroglycerin,mean density of inhaled isoflurane and total amount of remifentanil were all lower than those of group S (P<0.05);the incidence of post-operative delayed wakeup,chill and dysphoria in group D were significantly lower than those of group S (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The application of dexmedetomidine-assisted controlled anti-hypertension combined with high capacity hemodilution in spinal surgeries can bring more stable and effective controlled anti-hypertension. It can also reduce the amount of nitroglycerin,remifentanil,propofol and isoflurane significantly. It is a reliable and safe drug to be applied in assist-ed controlled anti-hypertension combined with high capacity hemodilution in spinal surgeries.

Objective To investigate the ability of linked color imaging(LCI)for diagnosing Helicobacter Pylori(Hp)infection compared with conventional white light imaging(WLI). Methods We prospectively collected subjects who underwent gastroscopy. Images under both WLI and LCI were recorded and analyzed. Software was used to measure pixel brightness for red(R),green(G),blue(B)of endoscopic images from suspected lesion sites. Biopsies were taken from these sites and Warthin-Starry silver staining was used to detect if Hp was present. R/(G+B)value was used to construct receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)to predict Hp infec-tion and the area under curve(AUC),cut-off point,sensitivity,as well as specificity were calculated with the patho-logy as the gold standard. Results Forty-seven subjects(23 men,24 women;23 Uygur subjects,24 Han subjects) were included in a mean age of 49 years old. Ninety-one biopsies were obtained. Forty-four biopsies (48.4%)were Hp positive according to the pathology. The AUC of LCI was 0.616,with the cut-off point at 0.967 and sensitivity at 0.955 and specificity at 0.298. The AUC of WLI was 0.529,with cut-off point at 2.638 and sensi-tivity at 0.455 and specificity at 0.766. The AUC of Han and Uygur subjects were 0.650 and 0.549 by LCI. The AUC of atrophy gastritis subjects and non-atrophy gastritis subjects were 0.628 and 0.603. Conclusion LCI was superior to WLI in predicting Hp infection. LCI may act as an objective and quantified endoscopic diagnostic meth-od in Hp infection.

Circulating tumor cells (CTC) are tumor cells that escape from the primary or metastatic tumor into the circulatory system, and closely related to cancer metastasis. Since the samples can be obtained through simple and minimally invasive blood sampling operations, CTCs have a great clinical potential. PCa is one of the most common malignant tumors in men. In recent years, many scholars have conducted studies as to whether CTC technology can be used for the diagnosis and treatment of PCa, as well as for more accurate prediction of the risk of progression. This article summarizes the advances in researches relating CTC technology and the diagnosis and treatment of PCa. CTC detection has been developed from simple counting to phenotypic classification, and even to its combination with the determination of the expressions of specific genes (such as AR, AR-V7, etc.) and single-cell sequencing. Some reports showed that CTC technology has a certain significance in the early diagnosis of PCa, but its main value is demonstrated in drug sensitivity and prognosis evaluation in the late stage of the malignancy. The standardized detection methods and reference values of CTCs in PCa will be important research orientations in the near future.

OBJECTIVETo detect HER-2/neu expression in prostate cancer tissues of both androgen dependent and independent groups and to evaluate the role of HER-2/neu in androgen independent prostate cancer.
METHODSImmunohistochemical assay was used in the detection of HER-2/neu in the prostate cancer samples from 30 cases of androgen dependent cancer and 24 cases of androgen independent cancer. The correlation was analyzed between HER-2/neu over-expression and the tumor's clinical stage and Gleason score.
RESULTSThe rates of HER-2/neu over-expression were 10% and 33% in the androgen dependent group and the androgen independent group, significantly higher in the Gleason score >7 group and the clinical stage > T2 group than in the -7 group and the > T2 group (14.29% vs. 26.92%, 34.62% vs. 7.14%, P < 0.01).
CONCLUSIONThe rate of HER-2/neu over-expression is high in androgen independent prostate cancer and is correlated with the tumor stage and Gleason score.
