It has long been concerned about the mechanism , pathology and toxicology of anaesthetic involving drug addiction and its influence on human body .In recent years , as a short non-coding RNA negatively regulating the genes in cells , MicroRNAs (miRNAs) may turn out to be a focus issue which is related to apoptosis , metabolism, inflammation, and tumorigenesis.This article illuminates the influence on gene expression introduced by common anaesthetics and the interaction between gene and its target site . Analyzing the potential medical applications of miRNA , this article reviews the correlation between miRNAs and anaesthetic to provide new evidences in this emerging field .
2.Diagnosis and prognosis evaluation of 18F-FDG PET/CT in bone marrow infiltration of lymphoma
Journal of International Oncology 2016;43(5):395-397
18 F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18 F-FDG PET/CT) and bone marrow biopsy (BMB) have high consistency in the detection of lymphoma bone marrow infiltration (BMI).18F-FDG PET/CT has a high sensitivity to Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) and aggressive non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) BMI,while the sensitivity of indolent NHL is low.Since 18F-FDG PET/CT may appears false positive or false negative,so it can not replace the conventional BMB.We can carry out a BMB under the guidance of 18F-FDG PET/CT,which can greatly improve the detection rate of BMI.
3.Antimicrobial therapy in patients with acute pancreatitis complicated with infection
Journal of Medical Postgraduates 2017;30(7):684-692
Infection can complicate different stages of acute pancreatitis.The probability of infection is related to the existence and extent ofpancreatic necrosis: up to 30% of patients with pancreatic necrosis develop infection.The timing of infection is variable and usually peaks in the second to fourth week after the onset of pancreatitis.IPN(infected pancreatic necrosis)is the most common type of secondary pancreatic infection.Infectious complications in severe acute pancreatitis are associated with considerable morbidity and mortality.Antimicrobial therapy is one of the fundamental elements of therapy.Diagnosis of secondary pancreatic infection is challenging and radiologic characteristic (air bubble sign) and CT guided fine-needle aspiration (FNA) are reliable diagnostic strategies.Antibioticuse should be rational in terms of a rational indication, a rational spectrum, and a rationalduration.Prophylactic antibiotics are not beneficial in improving prognosis.The only rational indication for antibiotics is documented infection.The empirical antibiotics should cover common microbials of hospital-acquired intra-abdominal infection and with good pancreatic penetration.Also, fungal infections are often present in thesepatients, and early diagnosis and antifungal coverage should be considered.Duration is in fact largely determined by the presence and efficacy of source control.When there is no or minimal residual infection left after a source control procedure, a duration of 7 to 10 days is probably sufficient.On the other hand, if the source of infection has not been removed completely, prolonged courses until the residual necrosis has been sterilized are necessary.

Objective To investigate the effects of different positions of the patients mechanically ventilated under general anesthesia on respiratory mechanics during one or both lung ventilation before thoracotomy.Methods Twelve ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients of both sexes (8 males, 4 females) aged 33-63 years weighing 62-85 kg scheduled for general thoracic surgery were studied. The preoperative lung function of the patients was normal. The patients were premedicated with intramuscular pethidine, promethazine and atropine. Anesthesia was induced with fentanyl, droperidol, midazolam, propofol and vecuronium. Left-sided double-lumen tube was inserted and correct placement was confirmed using a fiberoptic bronchoscope inserted through the bronchial lumen. Anesthesia was maintained with propofol and vecuronium infusion. The magnitude of neuro-muscular blockade was monitored by stimulation of radial nerve with TOF pulses. T4/T1 was maintained at 0 during study. The patients were placed in supine, left and right lateral position. In each position both lungs, left and right lung were ventilated for 10 min respectively. The non-ventilated bronchial lumen was open to the air during one-lung ventilation. The ventilatory parameters were kept unchanged during the study (VT = 8-10 ml?kg-1 , RR = 12 bpm, I:E = 1:2). Pressure-volume loop (P-V loop), peak airway pressure (Ppeak), airway resistance (Raw), total compliance (CT) (lung and thorax) and PETCO2 were measured and recorded at the end of each 10 min ventilation using S/5 monitor ( Datex-Ohmeda Finland) . Results During both lung ventilation Ppeak was significantly increased and CT was significantly decreased in left and right lateral position as compared with supine position ( P
