Objective To investigate the effect of ultrasound guided block of pericapsular nerve(PENG)combined with lateral femoral cutaneous nerve(LFCN)on analgesia,stress response and postoperative cognitive function in patients undergoing hip replacement.Methods 102 patients who underwent hip Joint replacement in our hospital from September 2020 to September 2022 were selected and randomly divided into control group(51 cases)and study group(51 cases).The control group was given ultrasound guided iliac fascia space block(FICB),and the study group was given ultrasound guided PENG combined with LFCN block.The perioperative related indicators,postoperative analgesia effect,stress response indicators and postoperative cognitive function of the two groups were compared.Results There was no statistically significant difference in the comparison of surgical time between the two groups(P>0.05).The amount of sufentanil used and the number of analgesic pump used within 48 hours after surgery in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The first postoperative time of getting out of bed and hospitalization in the study group were significantly shorter than those in the control group(P<0.05).There was no statistically significant difference in VAS scores between the two groups at 6 h,12 h,24 h,and 48 h after surgery(P>0.05).The VAS scores of the study group were significantly lower than those of the control group at 6 h,12 h,and 24 h after surgery(P<0.05).The heart rate(HR)and Mean arterial pressure(MAP)of the control group were higher at the time of block(T1),30 min of block(T1)(T2),and the end of block(T3)than at the time of entry(T0)(P<0.05).HR and MAP of the study group were significantly lower than those of the control group(P<0.05).The MMSE scores of the two groups at 6 h,12 h,24 h,and 48 h after surgery were lower than those before surgery(P<0.05),but the MMSE scores of the study group were significantly higher than those of the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion Using ultrasound guided PENG combined with LFCN block for patients undergoing hip Joint replacement can more effectively reduce the amount of opioids and the number of use of analgesia pump,reduce postoperative pain in the exercise state,reduce stress reaction,and have less impact on cognitive function,so as to promote faster recovery of patients.

Objective To investigate the anti-inflammatory effect of 25-OH vitamin D(25-OH-VD)on neonatal infectious pneumonia(NIP)and its mechanism.Methods A total of 65 children with NIP admitted to Chengdu Women and Children's Central Hospital from January 2022 to January 2023 were selected.According to the severity of the disease,they were divided into mild group(n=34)and severe group(n=31),and 60 healthy neonates in the same period were selected as the control group.Serum 25-OH-VD,interleukin-2(IL-2),interferon-γ(IFN-γ),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and IL-1β levels were measured by ELISA.The expressions of vitamin D receptor(VDR),transforming growth factor-β(TGF-β)/nuolea Yes-associated protein(n-YAP)and nuclear transcriptional coactivator PDZ-binding motif(n-TAZ)pathway related proteins in peripheral blood mononuclear cells were detected by Western blot.NIP in vitro models were established by lipopolysaccharide(LPS)stimulation of human lung epithelial cells,which were divided into control group,LPS group and LPS+VD group.Cell viability was detected by CCK-8 assay.The mRNA expressions of recombinant cytochrome P450 27B1(CYP27B1)and VDR in each group were detected by qRT-PCR.The number of YAP positive nuclei in each group was detected by immunocytochemistry.The nuclear translocation of YAP/TAZ complex in each group was detected by immunofluorescence.The expression of inflammatory factor-related proteins in each group was detected by Western blot.Results Compared with the control group,the serum levels of IL-2(1.91±0.18 μ g/L,2.63±0.27 μg/L vs 1.05±0.12 μg/L),IFN-γ(1.73±0.13 μg/L,2.18±0.19 μg/L vs 1.03±0.07 μg/L),TNF-α(1.79±0.08 μg/L,2.38±0.13 μg/L vs 0.97±0.04 μg/L),IL-1 β(2.18±0.07 μg/L,2.59±0.11μg/L vs 0.96±0.02 μg/L),TGF-β(1.67±0.21,2.43±0.42 vs 1.02±0.04),n-YAP(2.08±0.11,4.23±0.37 vs 0.99±0.02)and n-TAZ(2.47±0.42,4.21±0.58 vs 1.03±0.05)proteins of the children in the mild and severe groups were gradually increased,but the content of 25-OH-VD(12.57±2.21 μg/L,7.85±2.03 μg/L vs 16.76±1.02 μg/L)and the expression of VDR(0.73±0.09,0.51±0.06 vs 1.03±0.08)proteins were gradually decreased,and the differences were significant(F=18.983~56.782,all P<0.001).Cell experiment results showed that cellular survival rate was lower at 12 h(76.23%±0.73%vs 116.72%±2.14%),24 h(57.23%±0.94%vs 125.76%±1.67%)and 48 h(41.23%±0.56%vs 138.56%±1.35%)in the LPS group compared with the control group(t=10.342,26.562,37.821),but the rate of cytosolic n-YAP positivity(47.35±3.47 vs 12.46±1.34),the rate of nuclear translocation of the YAP/TAZ complex(2.56%±0.32%vs 1.01%±0.06%)(t=46.362,26.921),the protein expression levels of IL-2(2.03±0.09vs 1.03±0.08),IFN-γ(2.07±0.21 vs 1.02±0.04),TNF-α(2.18±0.11 vs 0.99±0.02)and IL-1β(3.17±0.42 vs 1.03±0.05)were up-regulated(t=28.341,26.713,31.235,47.823),with significant differences(all P<0.001),while there was no significant difference in the mRNA expression of CYP27B1 and VDR(t=0.872,0.786,all P>0.05).Compared with the LPS group,the cell survival rate at 12h(85.23%±0.36%),24h(79.82%±0.63%)and 48h(76.28%±0.72%)and the mRNA expression of CYP27B1(4.42±0.14)and VDR(5.13±0.56)were elevated in the LPS+VD group,while the nucleus n-YAP positivity(24.41±3.23),nuclear translocation of the YAP/TAZ complex(1.47%±0.26%),IL-2(1.21±0.06),IFN-γ(1.13±0.42),TNF-α(1.03±0.37)and IL-1β(1.61±0.58)protein levels were down-regulated,and the differences were significant(t=7.263,19.892,23.145,27.872,26.982,14.762,13.623,18.273,25.314,27.873,22.134,all P<0.0 1).Conclusion The serum 25-OH-VD level is related to the severity of NIP.Exogenous VD supplementation may play an anti-inflammatory role in reducing NIP injury by regulating the TGF-β-mediated YAP/TAZ nuclear translocation mechanism.
