Objective To explore the effect of paravertebral nerve block for preemptive analgesia on patients with thoracic surgery,and provide reference for clinical anesthesia.Methods From March 2014 to February 2016,102 patients with thoracic surgery in our hospital were selected as the research object,and they were divided into the observation group and the control group with 51 cases in each group according to the anesthesia methods.All the patients were given total intravenous anesthesia.Patients of the control group were injected propofol 1~2 mg/kg,sufentanil 0.4~0.5 g/kg,midazolam 0.1 mg/kg and rocuronium 0.5~0.7 mg/kg,while patients of the observation group were injected ropivacaine(with concentration of 0.5%)5 mL,sufentanil 0.1~0.3 μg·kg-1·min-1 and propofol 6~8 mg·kg-1·min-1 as an addition with the use of ultrasound to guide the paravertebral nerve block.The effect of the two groups were compared.Results The dosage of propofol,remifentanil and rocuronium in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group during the operation.The VAS score,postoperative pulmonary complication rate,ICU rate,extubation time,postoperative recovery time at different time of observation group were significantly lower than those of the control group,and SpO2 was higher in control group 30 minutes after tracheal extubation, the differences were significant (P<0.05).Conclusion Paravertebral nerve block requires less dosage of anaesthetic, and it has more significant analgesia effect on patients with thoracic surgery, which can efficiently promote the recovery of patients.

AIM: To explore the influence of Huqi San on the Hedgehog signaling pathway in rats with prehe-patocarcinoma.METHODS: The model of prehepatocarcinoma in the rats was established by a modified solt-farber method.The rats were intragastric administrated with Huqi San solution for 3 d after subtotal hepatectomy.Four weeks after administration of the Huqi San solution, the hepatic damage was observed by histopathological analysis.The protein expression of glutathione S-transferase-π (GST-π), alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), OV6, albumin (ALB) and glioma-associated oncogene homolog 2 (Gli2) was detected by immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence staining.The expression of Sonic hedgehog (Shh), Smoothened (Smo), Gli2, cyclin D and cyclin E at mRNA and protein levels in the rats was determined by RT-qPCR and Western blot, respectively.The serum levels of alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT) were assayed using diagnostic kits.RESULTS: Compared with model group, Huqi San decreased the serum levels of ALT, AST and GGT, and alleviated the pathological changes in prehepatocarcinoma rats.Huqi San inhibited the protein expression of GST-π and AFP (P<0.05) in the prehepatocarcinoma rats.Huqi San also promoted the protein expression of OV6 and ALB (P<0.05).Furthermore, Huqi San activated Hedgehog signaling pathway and its downstream targeting molecules such as Shh, Smo, Gli2, cyclin D and cyclin E.In addition, the results in vitro showed that Huqi San may activate Hedgehog signaling pathway and promoted oval cell proliferation.CONCLUSION: Huqi San not only promotes hepatic progenitor cell proliferation, but also induces hepatic progenitor cell differentiation and inhibits prehepatocarcinoma in the rats probably via activating Hedgehog signaling pathway.

The latest epidemiological data suggests that the situation of adult diabetes in China is severe, and metabolic diseases have become significant chronic illnesses that have a serious impact on public health and social development. After more than six years of practice, the National Metabolic Management Center(MMC) has developed distinctive approaches to manage metabolic patients and has achieved a series of positive outcomes, continuously advancing the standardized diagnosis and treatment model. In order to further improve the efficiency, based on the first edition, the second edition guideline was composed by incorporating experience of the past six years in conjunction with the latest international and domestic guidelines.
