ObjectiveTo study the pharmacokinetics of sufentanil in patients undergoing different cardiac surgeries with or without CPB.MethodsSixteen ASA Ⅱ or Ⅲ patients aged 56-64 yr weighing 52-78 kg undergoing cardiac surgery were divided into 2 groups ( n ＝ 8 each):group Ⅰ off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting and group Ⅱ valve replacement.Radial artery and peripheral vein were cannnlated.A bolus of sufentanil 5μg/kg was administered iv after induction of anesthesia.Blood samples were obtained from radial artery at 1,3,5,10,20,30,60,120,180,240,360 min after sufentanil injection.Plasma was immediately separated and stored at - 80 C for determination of plasma sufentanil concentration by liquid c hromatography-mass spectrometry.Pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated by 3P97 pharmacological program.ResultsThe pharmacokinetic profile of sufentanil was best described by a three-compartment open model.The 3 exponential equations in group Ⅰ,before and during CPB in group Ⅱ were:Cp(t) ＝ 11.7 e-0.47t + 1.9 e0.043t + 0.27 e-0.0032t ; Cp(t) ＝ 33.4 e-1.87t + 7.1e-0.103t +2.0 e-0.0248t and Cp(t) ＝ 23.8 e-0.54t + 5.2 e0.054t + 0.15 e-0.0017t respectively.There was significant difference in most of the pharmacokinetic parameters between the 2 groups.ConclusionsThe pharmacokinetics of sufentanil in patients undergoing different cardiac surgeries can be described by ~compartment open model.Low cardiac function and CPB can reduce its drug metabolism rate and prolong the duration of action.

Objective: To evaluate the effect of platelet activating factor(PAF) antagonism on the blood content in the random survival flap. Methods: A lipophilic PAF receptor antagonist BN52021 was administered to treat flaps through a local subcutaneous injection route 30 min prior to transplantation. The flaps were imaged in situ by a gamma camera. Results: The PAF receptor antagonist significantly augmented the accumulation of radioactivity of middle and end part within treated flaps( P

Objective To estimate prenatal diagnoses strategy with abnormal results of non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) based on a case of mosaic for trisomy 22.Methods The pregnanct woman was recruited from Department of Prenatal Diagnosis Center of Xinhua Hospital.Ultrasound scans suggested fetal nuchal translucency was 3.5 mm.Peripheral venous blood was drawn from the pregnant woman for NIPT at 12+2 weeks gestation.For further prenatal diagnosis, amniocentesis was conducted at 16+2 weeks gestation, and karyotype analysis combination with chromosome microarray analysis (CMA) was executed to analysis amniocytes.Results NIPT results suggested that chromosome 21, 18 and 13 were normal and supplementary reports suggested that chromosome 22 were slightly above the normal range.Karyotype analyzed 35 cultured cells.Each of them revealed a normal female karyotype.However, CMA results suggested that chromosome 22 gain mosaic and its copy number was 2.26.The fetus was diagnosed as high possibility of mosaic for trisomy 22.Conclusions Combined with the NIPT results, which was slightly gain mosaic of chromosome 22, a prenatal diagnosis strategy were proposed.When NIPT results suggest chromosomal abnormities, karyotype analysis combination with CMA to diagnose were recommended.

Objective To evaluate the effect of dexmedetomidine on autophagy in the hippocampal neurons of rats with traumatic brain injury (TBI).Methods Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 12-16 weeks,weighing 340-370 g,were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=80 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group S),traumatic brain injury group (group TBI) and dexmedetomidine group (group Dex).The rats were subjected to a diffuse cortical impact injury caused by a modified weight-drop device to induce TBI.Dexmedetomidine 15 μg/kg was injected intravenously immediately after TBI in Dex group.At 24 and 48 h after TBI,neurological deficit score (NDS) was assessed,Morris water maze test was performed,and brains were removed for detection of brain water content in the brain tissue.At 6,12,24 and 48 h after TBI,the expression of hippocampal LC3]Ⅱ was determined using Western blot analysis.Results Compared with group S,brain water content and NDS were significantly increased at 24 and 48 h after TBI,the escape latency was prolonged,and the expression of hippocampal LC3 Ⅱ was upregulated at 6,12,24 and 48 h after TBI in TBI group.Compared with TBI group,brain water content and NDS were significantly decreased at 24 and 48 h after TBI,the escape latency was shortened,and the expression of hippocampal LC3 Ⅱ was down-regulated at 6,12,24 and 48 h after TBI in Dex group.Conclusion The mechanism by which dexmedetomidine reduces TBI is related to inhibition of autophagy in the hippocampal neurons of rats.

Objective: To establish a rat model of polycystic ovary syndrome(PCOS) complicated with atherosclerosis(AS). Methods: Sixteen female SD rats were selected and randomly divided into control group and model group, with 8 rats in each group.The rats in the control group were given routine rearing.The rats in the model group were subcutaneously given dihydrotestosterone(DHT) in neck and fed with high fat diet for a long term.The changes of food intake (FI), body weight(BW), testosterone (T), estrogen (E₂), luteinizing hormone (LH), total cholesterol (TC), blood glucose (BG) and insulin (INS) were observed in the two groups. Results: The levels of FI, T, E₂, LH between the control group and model group had no obvious change[(86.13±7.83)g/r vs.(96.25±10.66)g/r, t=2.113, P=0.563, (10.79±1.74)mg/L vs.(11.47±1.89)mg/L, t=1.785, P=0.087; (36.58±2.57)ng/L vs.(38.64±1.78)ng/L, t=2.697, P=0.068; (15.47±1.96)IU/L vs.(16.01±0.80)IU/L, t=1.570, P=0.614]. The levels of BW, TC, DHT, INS in the model group were significantly higher than those in the control group[(234.54±17.14)g vs.(192.67±16.47)g, t=7.930, P<0.000; (2.47±0.13)mmol/L vs.(2.02±0.15)mmol/L, t=6.475, P<0.000; (139.75±12.12)ng/L vs.(55.63±7.80)ng/L, t=8.697, P<0.000; (283.25±33.47)pg/mg vs.(162.12±15.51)pg/mg, t=9.289, P<0.000]. Tube wall was markedly thickened in the model group after being given high fat feed for 12 weeks, and intimal wall was significantly thickened after 16 weeks, and endotheliocyte injury, deep collagen fiber, monocyte adhesion, visible atherosclerotic plaques were observed in the model grouop. Conclusion DHT-induced PCOS rat model by high fat feed reproduces the human typical clinical symptoms and pathological characteristics, it can provide a relatively simple and feasible rat model for further study of the mechanism of PCOS complicated with AS.

Objective To survey the current status and training requirement of rural doctors in Hebei province.Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted among1 200 rural doctors selected from 11 cities of Hebei province by stratified sampling from October to December 2017.The self-designed questionnaire included general condition,job satisfaction,impact of medical reform policies,training needs of rural doctors.Results A total of 1 200 questionnaires were distributed and 1 170 valid ones were retrieved with a recovery rate of 97.5％.Among the 1 170 responders,there were 726 males(62.1％) and 444 females (37.9％);748 (63.9％) were aged more than 40 years;612 (52.3％) hold secondary school degree;826 (70.6％) had been working in the village for more than 10 years,and the overall job satisfaction rate was 30.8％ (360/1 170).Among all responders,73.8％ (864/1 170) worked in the standardized village clinics,and 72.0％ (842/1 170) were contracted with local residents as family doctors;52.8％ (618/1 170) responders believed that the reform policy improved the health care for villagers.In all responders,98％ (1 147/1 170)thought they needed training,93.6％ (1 095/1 170) had received training.The training contents they most needed werethe management of common diseases (904,77.3％),followed by medical humanities(650,55.6％)and first aid knowledge (492,42.1％).The influencing factors for training were lack of time,no energy (656,54.3％),lack of appropriate training forms (510,43.6％),economic reasons (476,40.3％) and so on.Conclusion The working status of rural doctors need to befurther improvedand the training need to be strengthened to increase their job satisfaction.

Objective:The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical value of CT-guided localization of pulmonary nodules with soft wire hook-wire by trailing technique.Methods:The clinical data of 211 pulmonary nodules of 185 patients from November 2020 to March 2022 in Beijing Aerospace General Hospital were retrospectively analyzed. The pulmonary nodules were localized with soft wire hook-wire by trailing technique before video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS). The success rate, complications, pathological results and localization operations related data were statistically analyzed.Results:The success rate of localization was 97.63% (206/211), and the success rate of VATS removal was 99.53% (210/211). The average operation time was (7.19 ± 2.62) min, and the average time required for resection of lesions was 27 min (10 to 126 min). During the surgery, the soft wire hook-wire of two patient was found to be dislocated and retracted into the chest wall. The pulmonary nodules were successfully located and removed according traces left by puncture points on the lung surface. It was found that the hook-wire was located in the interlobar fissure in 3 patients. The pulmonary nodules were successfully removed by the hook-wire position and appropriately expanding the resection range. A minor pneumothorax occurred in 49 patients, but no closed drainage was needed; 12 patients developed intrapulmonary hematoma; 15 patients with chest pain were treated with analgesia.Conclusions:For small pulmonary nodules requiring thoracoscopic surgery, the computed tomography-guided pulmonary nodule localization with soft wire hook-wire by trailing technique is more convenient, safe and effective, and is worthy of promotion to use.

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility and safety percutaneous pulmonary vein intervention in patients with severe pulmonary vein stenosis (PVS) caused by fibrosing mediastinitis(FM). Methods: This retrospective analysis included 5 FM patients (2 male, 3 female, 54-77 years old) confirmed by clinical presentation and chest computed tomography (CT) scan from January to June 2018 who were from Gansu Provincial Hospital and Shanghai Chest Hospital. CT pulmonary angiography (CTPA) further revealed severe PVS caused by fibrotic tissue compression in mediastinum. After selective pulmonary vein angiography, gradually balloon angioplasty was used to expand the pulmonary vein and then stents were implanted in the pre-dilated stenotic pulmonary veins. Evaluation of therapeutic effect was made at 6 months after the procedure. Results: All of 11 serious compression PVS were treated with stent implantation (diameter: 7-10 mm, length: 17-27 mm). After stenting, degree of pulmonary vein stenosis decreased from (83±16)% to (12±4)% (P<0.01). The minimal diameter of the stenotic pulmonary vein was significantly increased from (0.8±0.5)mm to (7.5±0.8)mm (P<0.01). Trans-stenotic gradient decreased from (27.0±15.1)mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) to (2.50±0.58)mmHg (P<0.05). Mean pulmonary pressure measured by cardiac catheter decreased from (45.0±9.0)mmHg to (38.7±8.4)mmHg (P<0.05). One patient experienced cardiac arrest due to vagal nerve reflex during big sizing balloon stent dilation and recovered after cardiopulmonary resuscitation. There were no other serious procedure related complications. During the follow-up, severe stenosis at end of proximal stent was evidenced in 1 patient due to fibrotic compression, and another patient developed in-stent thrombosis due to discontinuation of prescribed anticoagulant. Conclusion Percutaneous intervention for severe pulmonary vein stenosis caused by FM is feasible and safe, and can improve hemodynamic caused by the compression of mediastinal vascular structures in these carefully selected patients.
