Objective To investigate the expression of NMDAR1 in the hippocampus and cerebral cortex of old rats after 30-min -inhalation of 2% isoflurane, and to investigate the effects of isoflurane on the learning and memory functions of old rats and the underlying mechanism. Methods The healthy old male Sprague Dawley rats (n = 36) were randomly divided into the control group, the oxygen group, the 2-hour post-recovery group, the 1-day post-recovery group, the 3-day post-recovery group, and the 7-day post-recovery group. The morris water maze was used to detect the ethological effect of 30-min inhalation of isoflurane , and the immunohistochemistry assay was used to detect the expression of NMDAR1 in the hippocampus (CA1, CA3) and the cerebral cortex. Results The 30-min inhalation of 2% isoflurane inhibited the learning and memory abilities of old rats at 2 h post-recovery. On 1 d post-recovery, the inhibition of learning and memory began to reduce, then on 3 d and 7 d post-recovery, the learning and memory abilities continously recovered. The expression of NMDAR1 in the rat hippocampus and cerebral cortex decreased at 2 h post-recovery, and reversed on 1 d post-recovery and reached the normal level on 3 d and 7 d post-recovery. Conclusion 30-min inhalation of 2%isoflurane had an inhibitory effect on the learning and memory abilities of old rats, and the attenuation of NMDAR1 in the hippocampus and cerebral cortex may involve in this process.

Objective:To investigate the application value of three-dimensional (3D) printing technology assisted laparoscopic anatomic liver resection of segment 8 (Lap-S8).Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 8 liver cancer patients including 7 cases with hepatocellular carcinoma and 1 case with intrahepatic cholangio-carcinoma who underwent 3D printing technology assisted Lap-S8 in the Hunan Provincial People′s Hospital from January 2019 to December 2020 were collected. There were 7 males and 1 female, aged from 49.0 to 80.0 years, with a median age of 56.5 years. Of the 8 patients, 6 cases underwent laparoscopic anatomic liver resection of the entire segment 8, 1 case underwent laparoscopic anatomic liver resection of ventral subsegmental of the segment 8 and 1 case underwent laparoscopic anatomic liver resection of dorsal subsegmental of the segment 8. 3D printing technology was used to assist preoperative evaluation and intraoperative navigation for all 8 patients. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) postoperative situations; (3) follow-up. Follow-up was conducted using outpatient examination, internet or telephone interview to detect survival and tumor recurrence of patients after operation up to March 2021. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean±SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Surgical situations: all the 8 patients underwent 3D printing technology assisted Lap-S8 successfully, without conversion to open surgery. The operation time, hepatic portal occlusion time and volume of intraoperative blood loss of the 8 patients were (216±41)minutes, (56±11)minutes and 75 mL(range, 50 to 300 mL), respectively. There was no intraoperative blood transfusion in 8 patients, and the surgical margin of the 8 patients was negative. (2) Postoperative situations: the duration of postoperative hospital stay of the 8 patients were (9±3)days. There was no complication such as postoperative hemorrhage, biliary fistula, liver abscess or abdominal infection occurred. (3) Follow-up: all the 8 patients were followed up for 3.0?24.0 months, with a median follow-up time of 12.5 months. During the follow-up, 1 of 8 patients with preoperative diagnosis of recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma developed tumor recurrence at 5 months after operation. The patient underwent laparoscopic surgery followed with the transcatheter arterial chemoembolization and target therapy, and survived with tumor. There was no tumor recurrence in the other 7 patients.Conclusion:3D printing technology assisted Lap-S8 is safe and feasible.

Objective To explore the clinical application and follow-up results of minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis (MIPPO) in treating proximal humeral fractures. Methods From December 2006 to September 2008, MIPPO using locking plate was employed to treat 36 patients (23 males and 13 females) with proximal humeral fracture. According to AO classification, there were four patients with type A2 fractures, 10 with type A3 fractures, five with type B1 fractures, 11 with type B2 fractures, three with type C1 fractures and three with type C2 fractures. Longitudinal or transverse incision was made through anterolateral acromial approach to separate the deltoid muscle and expose the fracture fragments. The direct and indirect reduction of the fractures were performed under direct vision. The locking plate was inserted distally beneath the deltoid muscle and a longitudinal incision was made at the lateral end of the plate. Locking screws were inserted to the proximal and distal plates. Postoperative follow-up was done to provide guidance to functional exercise and evaluate the clinical results. Results The operation lasted for (50.1±11.3) minutes, with intra-operative blood loss of(76±18.7) ml and average operative incision of (4.5±0.8) cm. All the patients were followed up for 12-17 months (average 14 months), which showed that the time of bone healing was (10. 1 ±1.2) weeks. Neer scoring standards showed the total excellence rate of 86%. Conclusion MIPPO is an ideal method for treatment of proximal humeral fractures, for it has the advantages such as safety, minor trauma, short bone healing time, alleviation of pain and good X-ray reduction.
