Objective To compare the outcomes of two temperature maintenance strategies during radical resection for carcinoma of oesophagus and their effects on postoperative shivering. Methods Thirty ASA Ⅰ-Ⅱ patients undergoing radical resection for carcinoma of oesophagus were randomly assigned to hypothermia group (HT group, patients were not wanned perioperatively, n=10), intraoperative normothermia group (INT group, patients were warmed only intraoperatively, n=10) and perioperative normothermia group(PNT group, patients were warmed before induction of anesthesia and during anesthesia, n=10). The tympanic temperature began to be recorded 20 min before induction of anesthesia at intervals of 10 min. Results There was no significant difference in the decrease velocity of tympanic temperature during the first hour after induction of anesthesia between HT group and INT group, while both were significantly higher than that of PNT group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the tympanic temperature within 70 min after induction of anesthesia between HT group and INT group, while both were significantly lower than that of PNT group (P<0.05). The tympanic temperature of HT group continued to decrease 70 min after induction of anesthesia, while that of INT group and PNT group began to increase. There were significant differences in the tympanic temperature 80 min to 180 min after induction of anesthesia among these three groups(P<0.05). The incidences of postoperative shivering were 8, 5 and 2 in HT group, INT group and PNT group, respectively. The scores of thermal comfort scale were 19±10, 41±7 and 51±11 in HT group, INT group and PNT group, respectively, and there were significant differences among these three groups(P<0.05). Conclusion Compared with INT, PNT can more effectively maintain perioperative normothermia, reduce the incidence of shivering and relieve the patients' cold thermal discomfort in radical resection for carcinoma of oesophagus.

Conclusions Age, gender, Hb, Alb, Hcy and PU area were the risk factors of pressure ulcer healing.

Objective To investigate the imaging feature of hippocampal sclerosis (HS), and evaluate the diagnostic value of double inversion recovery (DIR) sequence at 3.0 T MR for its diagnosis. Methods Twelve patients with unilateral HS proven by pathology and 12 healthy volunteers were enrolled. All patients received DIR, fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) and T2 TSE sequences scans on oblique coronal plane vertical to the hippocampal axis on a 3.0 T MR scanner. Regions of interest (ROI) were set respectively in ipsilateral and contralateral hippocampi hippocampi in patients with HS, and the bilateral hippocampi in healthy volunteneers were placed respectively. Signal to noise ratio (SNR), contrast to noise ratio (CNR), ratio of signal intensity (RSI) and asymmetry index (AI) of each ROI in all hippocampi were calculated and compared among the three sequences. Statistical analysis was performed with one-way ANOVA. Results On DIR images, ipsilateral hippocampal lesions demonstrated extremely high signal intensity. Relative signal intensity of ipsilateral hippocampal lesions, contralateral hippocampi and the hippocampi in control groups healthy volunteneers were 1.50±0.05, 1.26±0.03, 1.18±0.05 (F=172.609,P=0.000), respectively. SNR of ipsilateral hippocampal lesions on DIR, FLAIR and T2 TSE sequences were 84.13±16.62, 50.90±12.38, 63.25±15.46 (F=15.185,P=0.000), respectively. CNR of hippocampus were 13.72±3.73, 6.67±3.02, 7.33±3.65 (F=14.985,P=0.000), respectively.In HS patients, RSI and AI of the ipsilateral hippocampal lesions and contralateral hippocampi among the three sequences did not show statistically significant difference(P=0.078). Conclusions HS manifests extremely high signal intensity on DIR images. On DIR images, the SNR and CNR of HS were higher than those on conventional MR sequences which provide valuable information for the diagnosis of HS.
