Objective To investigate the effect of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) combined with dexmedetomidine on the lung injury during one-lung ventilation (OLV) in the patients undergoing thoracic surgery. Methods Eighty ASA physical status I or Ⅱ patients, scheduled for elective radical operation for esophageal cancer, were randomly divided into 2 groups(40 patients each group) using a random number table: control group and RIPC combined with dexmedetomidine group (ORD group). In ORD group,10 min after endotraeheal intubation, RIPC was induced by 3 cycles of 5 min lower extremity ischemia followed by 5 min reperfusion, and at the same time a loading dose of dexmedetomidine 1.0 μg/kg was infused intravenously over 15 min and then dexmedetomidine was infused at a rate of 0.5 μg/(kg·h) until the end of operation. At 0, 30 min, 1 h and 2 h of OLV(T1-4), blood samples were obtained from the radial artery for blood gas analysis and determination of plasma concentrations of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-1βand IL-10.Oxygenation index and respiratory index were calculated. Exhaled breath condensate was collected at T1, T3 and T4, and the pH value was measured.

Objective: To evaluate biological materials tanned with a compound method for clinical performance of biovalves. Methods: The tissue calcium concentration was compared between biological materials tanned simply with amylic aldehyde and those compoundly tanned with amylic aldehyde, cation fat, chromium trioxide and glycerol. The histological morphology, the ultra-structure and tensile strength of the biological materials were tested and the content of hydroxyls in the materials was measured with the Fourier infrared spectrum detector. The prosthetic biological cardiac valves made of the materials were tested with an accelerated wearing device extracorporeally. Results: The tissue calcium concentration was lower in the compoundly tanned materials. In these materials, the collagenous fibers were dense and lined up in order. The cellular structure was maintained. The materials were pliable at the contracting temperature of 86℃ to 90℃. The tensile strength of the materials was 19.9 to 25.9 N/mm 2 and the extension rate was 43.4% to 46.0%. The peak of the hydroxyls decreased significantly at the wave length of 1741.11 cm -1 in the Fourier infrared spectrum. The swine aortic valve experienced 3.892?10 8 cycles in the accelerated wearing tests, and the bovine pericardial valve, 3.888?10 8 cycles. By estimation, the biovalves will last for about ten years. Conclusion: Compound tanning can increase firmness and softness of the materials and may play an important role in anticalcification of the biovalves.

ObjectiveTo compare the clinical effect of posterior circumferential fusion with versus without intertransverse process fusion on lumbar instability in aged patients. MethodsThe elderly with lumbar instability were treated with the posterior instrumented circumferential fusion technique in 80 cases. Among 58 patients followed up for at least 2 years, 28 cases (group A)underwent posterior circumferential fusion with intertransverse process, while 30 cases (group B)without intertransverse process. X-ray examination was used before and 1, 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after operation to evaluate the fusion condition of the bone graft, and visul analogue scale (VAS) and Oswestry disability index (ODI) questionnaire were applied to assess the pain of center back and leg,and the conventional activity.ResultsThe operation time and blood loss were more in group A[(185.3±56.6) min and (376.3±92.9) m1] than in group B [(146.4±46.3) min and (234.3±64.5)ml (t=12.37, 37.49, P＜0.01)]. All the 58 cases were followed for at least 2 years. The 27 cases (96.4％) of group A and 28 cases (93.3％) of group B got bone fusion (x2 =0.004, P＞0.05).There were marked differences in the VAS of center back at 1 and 3 months after operation between the 2 groups (t=3.178, 2.158, both P＜0.05), while no difference at the other 3 time point. VAS about the leg pain and the ODI showed no differences between group A and B after operation (all P＞0.05). ConclusionsFor the lumbar instability in the elderly, the posterior circumferential fusion with or without intertransverse process fusion can achieve a similar high rate of fusion and satisfactory clinical results,andtheposteriorcircumferentialfusionwithoutintertranaverseprocess is recommended for less trauma.
