Objective To investigate the effect of esmolol pretreatment on propofol injection pain..Methods Ninety patients undergoing breast cancer surgery under general anesthesia were ran-domly assigned into three groups (n=30 each).Group E were pretreated with 5 mg/ml(total 2 ml)es-molol group L with 20 mg/ml (total 2 ml)lidocaine and group N with 2 ml normal saline.After one minute,each group was administrated propofol intravenouly.The pain and hemodynamic data were re-corded.Results Compared with group N,propofol injection pain degree decreased obviously in groups E and L (P <0.05).propofol injection pain occurred in 25 (83.3%)in group N,was signifi-cantly higher than that of 12 (40.0%)in group E and 14 (46.7%)in group L (P <0.05),propofol injection pain had no significant difference between groups E and L.Compared with T1 ,SBP,DBP decreased in groups E and L at T2 ,SBP decreased in group N at T2 significantly (P <0.05).Com-pared with T2 ,DBP was significantly higher at T3 in group E (P <0.05).Conclusion Pretreatment with low dose esmolol was effective in attenuating pain during propofol injection.

Objective To compare the influences of different routes of nutrition on the outcome and respiratory muscle strength of elderly patients in respiratory intensive care unit (RICU). Methods Totally 147 elderly patients in RICU were equally randomized into combined nutrition group ( combinination of parenteral nutrition and enteral nutrition), total enteral nutrition (EN) group, and total parenteral nutrition (PN) group. The changes of energy metabolism, respiratory muscle strength, and short-term outcome were observed or determined.Results Plasma albumin (ALB), hemoglobin (Hb), creatinine (Cr) levels, and nitrogen balance significantly increased in all group 7 days later ( all P ＜ 0. 01 ), while blood urea nitrogen (BUN) significantly decreased ( P ＜0.01 ). The increase of ALB, Hb, Cr levels, and nitrogen balance were significantly more remarkable than that in EN group and PN group (P＜0.05 or P＜0.01). The decrease of BUN level in the combined nutrition group was significantly more remarkable than that in EN group ( P ＜ 0. 05 ). After nutritional support, the maximum inspiratory pressure in the combined nutrition group (P =0. 021 ) and EN group (P = 0. 011 ) became significantly higher, and occlusion pressure at 0.1 second inspiration level in the combined nutrition group became significantly lower ( P =0. 025). The incidences of infectious and non-infectious complications in PN group were significantly higher than those in EN group (P = 0. 002 and 0. 017, respectively) and combined nutrition group ( P = 0. 005 and 0. 004, respectively). Gastric retention was more common in EN group than that in PN group ( P = 0. 035). The weaning time,length of RICU stay, length of hospital stay and 20-day-mortality were significantly decreased in the combined nutrition group than those in the other two groups ( all P ＜ 0. 05 ). Conclusion The effectiveness of the combined application of PN and EN is superior to PN or EN alone in improving nutritional status and respiratory muscle strength as well as in improving the short-term outcome in elderly patients in RICU..

OBJECTIVE:To investigate and analyze the causative factors and characteristics of drug-induced rhabdomyolysis in China,in order to reduce the incidence of rhabdomyolysis. METHODS:Search all cases of rhabdomyolysis in China Knowledge Re-source Integrated Database from Jan 1975 to Jun 2014. Sex,age,disease history,drugs administered,drug combination,clinical presentation and outcome of rhabdomyolysis were censused and analyzed. RESULTS:There were altogether 185 rhabdomyolysis cas-es reported,of which 57.8% were over 60 years old ,78.9% were induced by lipid regulators,and 55.7% were by statins;74.1%occurred within 1 month after drug administration,and 86.6% became normal within 1 month when causative drugs discontinued or with treatment;and 4.9% died. CONCLUSIONS:Eldly,complicated with multi-factors,such as multiple organ dysfunction syn-drome,irrational drug combination and over-doses,especially with lipid regulators,are important causative factors of rhabdomyoly-sis. Individualized administration of drugs and prescription as less as possible should be recommended to reduce the incidence of rhabdomyolysis.

Objective To investigate the effect of hypercapnia on cerebral oxygen metabolism under propofol anesthesia during one-lung ventilation (OLV) in patients.Methods Forty ASA physical status [or Ⅱ patients,aged 53-63 yr,scheduled for elective lobectomy performed via video-assisted thoracoscope,were enrolled in the study.Anesthesia was induced with iv injection of midazolam,fentanyl and vecuronium and target-controlled infusion of propofol and maintained with target-controlled infusion of propofol and intermittent iv boluses of fentanyl and vecuronium.BIS value was maintained at 40-60 during surgery.At 15 min of OLV,hypercapnia was performed and PaCO2 was maintained at 50-55 mm Hg lasting for 15 min,and then respiratory rate was adjusted to maintain PaCO2 at 40-45 mm Hg.Immediately before OLV (T0),at 15 min of OLV and hypercapnia (T1,2),and at 15 min after the end of hypercapnia (T3),arterial and jugular bulb venous blood samples were obtained for determination of arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2),arterial oxygen saturation (SaO2),jugular bulb venous oxygen partial pressure (PjO2) and hemoglobin saturation (SjO2).The arterial to venous oxygen content difference (Da-jO2) and cerebral extraction rate of oxygen (CERO2) were calculated.Results SaO2 and PaO2 at T1-3,SjO2 and PjO2 at T1 and T3 and Da-jO2 at T2 were significantly lower and CERO2 at T1 and T3 was higher than those at T0 (P ＜ 0.05).SjO2 and PjO2 were significantly increased and Da-jO2 and CERO2 were significantly decreased at T2(P ＜0.05) and no significant changes were found in the parameters of cerebral oxygen metabolism at T3 as compared with those at T1 (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Hypercapnia can improve cerebral oxygen metabolism under propofol anesthesia during OLV in patients.

Objective:To investigate the onset mechanism of cervical vertigo from the proprioceptive sensation and provide clinical basis for its treatment.Methods:Among the 121 cases that conformed to the diagnostic criteria of cervical vertigo,70 cases who presented with negative neck-rotation test and cervical vertigo without obvious vascular factors by transcranial Doppler(TCD)were assigned to the observation group,while 51 cases who presented with positive neck-rotation test and cervical vertigo due to spasm of vertebral basal artery or insufficient blood supply by TCD were assigned to the control group.The cases in the two groups were treated once every day,5 days make up one treatment course and the resuIts were statistically analyrzed after one treatment course.Results:The skull triaxial spatial offset of the cases in the two groups were significantly reduced after the treatment (P<＜0.01).However, there was no statistically significant difference between the skull triaxial spatial offset between the two groups (p＞0.05).It is not conclusive that the therapeutic effect in the two groups was significantly different after one treatment course.Conclusion:Tuina manipulation therapy can improve the skull spatial ofrset repositioning ability of the Patients.

As a member of nuclear receptor superfamily, farnesoid X receptor (FXR) has been shown to regulate numerous metabolic pathways, which include playing an important role in bile acid metabolism, maintaining lipid and glucose homeostasis when FXR is activated. With the prevalence of the glucose and lipids disorder, FXR attracts increasing attention. It may be a potential target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus and lipid disorders.
