Objective To investigate the changes in pharmacokinetics of propofol and propofol concentration in the brain induced by normovolemic hemodilution ( NHD) . Methods Thirteen healthy male mongrel dogs weighing 10-15 kg were randomly divided into 2 groups: control group ( n = 7) and NHD group ( n = 6). The animals were anesthetized with intravenous diazepam 0.5 mg?kg-1 and ketamine 5 mg?kg-1 . The femoral artery and vein were cannulated. Lactated Ringer's solution was infused at 5-7 ml ? kg-1 ? h-1 . 30 min after induction of anesthesia NHD was conducted by removing blood from femoral artery and replacing it with 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HES) until Hct was reduced to 25% . Propofol was then infused at 10 mg?kg-1 ?h-1 for 30 min after NHD. Arterial blood samples were taken immediately before and at 1, 2, 5 , 10, 15, 20, 30, 31, 32, 35, 40, 50, 70, 90, 120, 150, 180, 240 and 300 min after propofol infusion was started for determination of plasma propofol concentrations. One week later the same NHD was repeated. Propofol was administered by TCI via Graseby 3500 infusion pump incorporated with Stanpump TCI software. Target plasma propofol concentration was set at 5 ?g?ml-1 . Arterial blood and CSF samples were obtained at 5, 15, 30, 45 and 60 min after the start of propofol infusion for determination of plasma propofol concentration ( bound and free) , plasma free propofol concentration and CSF propofol concentration. At the end of 60 min, after the collection of blood and CSF samples, brain tissue was obtained from the cerebral cortex of right frontal lobe for determination of brain propofol content. ECG, BP, arterial blood gases and body temperature were monitored during experiment.Results The plasma propofol concentrations were significantly lower during and after propofol infusion at 10 mg? kg-1 ? h-1 in NHD group than in control group ( P

To enhance the production of ε-poly-L-lysine (ε-PL) by improving dissolved oxygen level of the fermentation system, different oxygen-vectors were added to broth and n-dodecane was screened as the best oxygen-vector. The best amount of n-dodecane was 0.5% (V/V) and the best time was at start of the fermentation. In a fed-batch fermentation in a 5 L bioreactor, ε-PL concentration reached a maximum of (30.8 ± 0.46) g/L and the dry cell weight obtained was (33.8 ± 0.29) g/L, increasing by 31.6% and 20.7% compared with the control group, respectively. This improvement can be related to 0.5% n-dodecane could maintain dissolved oxygen concentration > 32% of air concentration compared with 23.8% in ε-PL production phase, and the production of a main by-product, poly-L-diaminopropionic acid, fell by 31%. These results indicated that the dissolved oxygen level in the broth was improved by adding n-dodecane, which can inhibit the by-product production and improve the biosynthesis of ε-PL.

BACKGROUND: There are various kinds of design methods about preoperative osteotomy of ankylosing spondylitis with kyphosis, but each has their own errors and limitations. A convenient, precise and available method needs to bedeveloped.OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical efficacy of two different preoperative osteotomy designs using paper-cut andphotoshop software for ankylosing spondylitis with kyphosis.METHODS: Thirty-nine patients suffering ankylosing spondylitis with kyphosis undergoing osteotomy in the Departmentof Spinal Surgery, Affiliated Hospital of Yan'an University between June 2009 and January 2015 were enrolled, andrandomly allotted to paper-cut (n=19) and photoshop (n=20) groups, followed by the preoperative osteotomy design,respectively. All patients were followed for 12-40 months to compare the postoperative osteotomy angle error andcorrection efficacy at the last follow-up between groups.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The postoperative osteotomy angle error in the photoshop group was significantly smaller than that in the paper-cut group (P < 0.05). (2) At the last follow-up, the key parameters of sagittal spine and pelvis (sagittal vertical axis, Cobb angle and pelvic tilt) showed significant differences between groups (P < 0.05). (3) The Oswestry disability index and Scoliosis Research Society-22 questionnaire scores in the photoshop group weresignificantly superior to those in the paper-cut group at the last follow-up (P < 0.05), while the visual analog scale scoresdid not differ significantly between groups (P > 0.05). (4) To conclude, compared with the osteotomy design usingtraditional paper-cut splice, the photoshop software can achieve a smaller osteotomy angle error and better postoperative balance of spinal sagittal plane, thus providing precise osteotomy for surgeons to obtain proper correction.

Objective:To investigate the application value of baseline MRI multi-parametric imaging radiomics in prediction of neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (NCR) efficacy of rectal mucinous adenocarcinoma (RMAC).Methods:Retrospective analysis was performed in the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from August 2012 to October 2018. A total of 79 patients were included in this study, including 52 males and 27 females, aged 20-78 years (median age 52 years). According to the classification criteria of pathological regression, all patients were divided into NCR responsiveness group ( n=31) and nonresponsiveness group ( n=48). And 701 imaging features of T 2WI, diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and enhanced T 1WI images of baseline MRI were extracted, and feature subsets were selected by repeatability analysis and feature dimensionality reduction to construct the radiomics prediction model. The tumor features from baseline MRI between the NCR responsiveness group and the nonresponsiveness group were compared, and the features of P<0.05 were combined with the radiomics to construct a model. Using pathology as the gold standard, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the diagnostic efficiency of the prediction model, and the area under the curve (AUC), 95% confidence interval, sensitivity and specificity were calculated, and the DeLong test was used to compare the diagnostic efficacy of different prediction models. Results:By comparing the conventional tumor imaging characteristics of the NCR responsiveness group and the nonresponsiveness group, the differences in lymph node stage and mucinous nodule status between the two groups were statistically significant (χ2 =6.040, 5.870, P<0.05). The AUC of ROC curves based on T 2WI, DWI, and enhanced T 1WI radiomics were 0.816, 0.821, and 0.819, respectively, which were higher than those of conventional tumor characteristics (lymph node staging, mucinous nodule status) (AUC=0.607), and the differences were statistically significant ( Z=-2.391, -2.580 and -2.717, P<0.05). Among the joint prediction models of T 2WI, DWI and contrast-enhanced T 1WI radiomics and conventional tumor features, the DWI combined model had the largest AUC (0.843), and there was no statistically significant difference between the three combined models (all P>0.05). Conclusion:The baseline T 2WI, DWI, and contrast-enhanced T 1WI radiomics model can be used to predict the NCR efficacy of RMAC, which is better than the predictive efficacy of conventional features, and the combination with conventional features can further improve the predictive efficacy.
