Objective To evaluate the effect of the expression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp) in the tumor tissue on the analgesic efficacy of fentanyl and lornoxicam in patients with cancer pain. Methods One hundred advanced cancer patients with pain aged 49-64 yr weighing $$-65 kg were included in this study. The expression of Pgp was positive in the tumor tissue in 50 patients (groups F1 and L1, n = 25 each) and negative in 50 patients (groups F2 and L2, n = 25 each). The patients in 4 groups received 48 h of pstient-controlled intravenous analgesia (PCIA). A loading dose of fentanyl 0.05 mg was administered before PCIA was started in groups F1 and F2 .The PCIA solution contained fentanyl 1 mg and droperidol 5 mg in 100 ml of normal saline in groups Ft and F2, or lomoxicam 64 mg and droperidol 5 mg in 100 ml of normal saline in groups L1 and L2. The PCA pump was set to deliver a background infusion of 2 ml/h and a bolus dose of 0.5 ml at 15 min lockout interval. Pain was assessed with VAS scores (0 = no pain, 10 = worst pain), and VAS score was maintained at ≤3 during PCIA. Flurbiprofen 50 mg was injected intravenously when VAS score≥4 and the consumption of flurbiprofen was recorded. The consumption of fentanyl and lornoxicam during PCIA was recorded. Blood samples from the internal jugular vein were taken at the beginning of PCIA (T0), and at 4, 12, 24, 48 h of PCIA (T1-4) for determination of blood fentanyl and lornoxicam concentrations. Results Flurbiprofen was not used in groups F2, L1 and L2. The consumption of flurbiprofen was ( 184 ± 41 ) mg in group F1 . There was no significant difference in the consumption of fentanyl during PCIA between groups F1 and F2 ( P > 0.05). Blood fentanyl concentrations were not detected at all the time points in groups F1 and F2 . The VAS score during PCIA ≤ 3 in groups L1 and L2, and there was no significant difference in blood concentrations of lornoxicam at each time point and the consumption of lornoxicam during PCIA between groups L1 and L2 ( P > 0.05). Conclusion Positive P-gp expression in the tunor tissue can decrease the analgesic efficacy of fentanyl, but exerts no effect on the analgesic efficacy of lornoxicam in patients with cancer pain.

This paper reports a case of multiple myeloma complicated with Primary systemic light chain amyloidosis peripheral neuropathy.Patient was a male,60 years old with subacute onset of peripheral neuropathy.Patient had previous history of hypertension,coronary heart disease and stable angina pectoris.His urine routine examination 2 months ago showed urine protein(+++).The first clinical symptom with peripheral neuropathy characterized by progressive numbness and weakness of both lower limbs.The diagnosis was made after completing electromyography,lumbar puncture,renal puncture,bone puncture and other related examinations,and relevant treatment was given.As a rare disease of nervous system,the incidence rate is low.Early diagnosis is an important step to reduce mortality and improve prognosis.However,the disease is easily misdiagnosed as diabetic peripheral neuropathy and chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy,thereby delaying diagnosis and treatment.

Objective:To investigate the correlation between antiplatelet agents and the risk of ruptured intracranial aneurysm.Methods:Patients with intracranial aneurysm admitted to the Department of Neurology, East Hospital Area of Qingdao Municipal Hospital from June to December 2018 were selected retrospectively. The baseline data of patients and the characteristics of intracranial aneurysms were collected. The independent correlation between antiplatelet agents and the risk of ruptured intracranial aneurysm was identified by the univariable analysis and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results:A total of 90 patients with intracranial aneurysm were included in the study. There were 31 males (34.44%) and 59 females (65.56%). The median diameter of the aneurysm was 4 mm. Forty-six patients taking antiplatelet agents before being diagnosed with intracranial aneurysm, of which 36 taking aspirin, 3 taking clopidogrel, and 7 taking aspirin+ clopidogrel. There were 31 patients (34.44%) with ruptured aneurysm and 59 (65.56%) with unruptured aneurysm. There were statistical differences in the proportion of patients with age <60 years ( P<0.05), diabetes ( P<0.1), ischemic heart disease ( P<0.05), history of previous stroke or transient ischemic attack ( P<0.01), internal carotid artery aneurysm ( P<0.01), anterior communicating artery aneurysm ( P<0.05), posterior communicating artery aneurysm ( P<0.01) and taking antiplatelet agents before diagnosis ( P<0.1) between the ruptured group and the unruptured group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age <60 years (odds ratio[ OR] 4.116, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 1.337-12.673; P=0.014), anterior communicating artery aneurysm ( OR 5.015, 95% CI 1.155-22.559; P=0.032) and posterior communicating artery aneurysm ( OR 68.796, 95% CI 6.762-699.951; P<0.001) were the independent risk factors for ruptured intracranial aneurysm, and taking antiplatelet agents was an independent protective factor for ruptured intracranial aneurysm ( OR 0.320, 95% CI 0.104-0.992; P=0.048). Conclusions:Taking antiplatelet agents, especially aspirin, does not increase the risk of ruptured intracranial aneurysm, but may be a protective factor of ruptured intracranial aneurysm. Unruptured aneurysms are not contraindications for antiplatelet therapy in patients with clear indications.

Objective To explore the clinical and imaging features of phosphaturic mesenchymal tumor(PMT).Methods The clinical presentations,laboratory examinations,and imaging manifestations of seven patients with PMT diagnosed by surgery and pathology were analyzed retrospectively.Results Among the 7 patients,four patients had clinical presentations of long-term fatigue and bone pain.All patients showed preoperative blood phosphorus reduction in varying degrees.X-ray examination showed systemic osteomalacia and osteoporosis,accompanied by multiple pathological fractures.On CT,the primary tumor appeared as a soft tissue density mass or a ground glass high-density nodule with irregular calcification and local bone destruction.MRI showed long T1,long T2 signal intensity,and irregular low signal foci were scattered in the T2WI fat-suppressed sequence.The enhanced scans showed moderate to significant inhomogeneous enhancement.One patient who underwent 18F-FDG PET/CT and two patients who underwent 18F-ALF-NOTA-Octreotide(18F-OC)PET/CT examinations showed varying degrees of radioactive concentration in the lesions.Conclusion The clinical presentations and laboratory examinations of patients with PMT have certain characteristics.Systemic osteomalacia with pseudofracture line,calcification matrix within the tumor,and significant inhomogeneous enhancement of the lesion are the key imaging features for diagnosing PMT.18F-OC PET/CT examination plays a crucial role in the systemic localization diagnosis of tumors.

ObjectiveTo observe the effect of twelve-week aerobic exercise on inhibitory control abilities and the change of brain activation in overweight children. MethodsFrom October to December, 2021, 20 overweight children from a primary school in Changping District were selected for a twelve-week aerobic exercise intervention. Their inhibitory control abilities were measured by Flanker task before and after intervention, while their brain activation levels during the task were detected by functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS). ResultsThe interactions between task type and time of accuracy and reaction time in inconsistent tasks Flanker task were significant (F > 9.277, P < 0.05), with higher accuracy and lower reaction time of after intervention (P < 0.05). After intervention, ch1, ch2, ch3, ch6, and ch8 channels were activated by inconsistent tasks (P < 0.05). ConclusionA twelve-week aerobic exercise intervention could improve the inhibitory control ability, and increase the prefrontal cortex activation during inconsistent tasks in overweight children.
