Objective:To compare the impact of remimazolam and propofol on the quality of postoperative recovery in aged patients with goal-directed hemodynamic management strategies.Methods:Ninety patients of either sex, aged 65-80 yr, with body mass index of 18-28 kg/m 2, of American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status Ⅱ or Ⅲ, scheduled for elective laparoscopic gastrointestinal tumor surgery, were divided into 2 groups ( n=45 each) using a random number table method: remimazolam group (group R) and propofol group (group P). Anesthesia was induced as follows: remimazolam 6 mg·kg -1·h -1 was intravenously infused in group R, and propofol 2 mg/kg was intravenously injected in group P. Anesthesia was maintained as follows: remimazolam 0.5-1.0 mg·kg -1·h -1 was intravenously infused in group R, propofol 4-12 mg·kg -1·h -1 was intravenously infused in group P, and BIS values were maintained at 40-60 during operation.Both groups adopted a goal-directed hemodynamic management strategy during operation, and the volume infused and vasoactive drugs were adjusted according to stroke volume variation of 4%-12% and cardiac index of 2.5-4.0 L ·min -1·m -2.The 40-item Quality-of-Recovery scale (QoR-40) was used to assess the quality of postoperative recovery.QoR-40 score was performed 1 day before surgery, 3 days after surgery and 30 days after surgery.The intraoperative consumption of vasoactive drugs and occurrence of intraoperative hypotension and bradycardia were recorded, and the concentration of lactic acid was measured before operation, after operation and 24 h after operation in the two groups.The recovery time of consciousness, tracheal extubation time, duration of postanesthesia care unit stay and postoperative length of hospital stay were recorded.The occurrence of postoperative complications was also recorded. Results:Compared with P group, the incidence of intraoperative hypotension and bradycardia was significantly decreased, the consumption of dopamine and norepinephrine was reduced, the concentration of lactic acid was decreased, QoR-40 scores were increased at 3 and 30 days after operation, the postoperative length of hospital stay was shortened, and the incidence of postoperative complications was decreased in group R ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Remimazolam provides better efficacy than propofol in improving the quality of postoperative recovery in elderly patients with goal-directed hemodynamic management strategy.
10.Improving the efficacy of traditional Chinese medicine in treatment of primary liver cancer based on etiology and pathogenesis
Journal of Clinical Hepatology 2021;37(9):2001-2004
At present, the treatment of primary liver cancer is mainly based on modern medicine. Studies have found that traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) can promote the apoptosis of hepatoma cells and regulate the immunity of human body by affecting multiple critical pathways involved in the development and progression of tumor. TCM plays an irreplaceable role in the treatment of liver cancer, and the focus on the etiology and pathogenesis of liver cancer is the key to achieving good efficacy. Although there are still no ideal anti-HBV drugs in TCM, intervention on the etiologies of dampness, heat, phlegm, toxin, stasis, and deficiency and the change in struggle between vital Qi and pathogen during each stage of disease progression may delay or even prevent disease progression, which is the treatment based on etiology and pathogenesis and is the theory that "treatment should focus on the principal cause of a disease". In clinical practice, modern medical treatment combined with TCM can improve patients' quality of life and reduce tumor recurrence, and TCM combined with sorafenib has stronger efficacy and fewer side effects. Meanwhile, further studies are needed to explore how integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine therapy exerts a therapeutic effect on liver cancer and the detailed mechanism of action of TCM in the treatment of liver cancer.
