The Journal of Practical Medicine 2017;33(16):2750-2753
Objective To investigate the effect of oxycodone and sufentanil with equivalent dose on hemo-dynamics and stress response in general anesthesia induction. Methods One hundred and twenty ASA I orⅡpa-tients with abdominal surgery were randomly divided into oxycodone group(group O,n=60)and sufentanil group (group S,n = 60). Anesthesia was induced with iv oxycodone 0.20 mg/kg(group O)or sufentanil 0.25 μg/kg (group S)respectively,together with iv propofol 2.0 ~ 2.5 mg/kg and cisatracurium 0.2 mg/kg. The patients were tracheally intubated using a single-lumen endotracheal tube. Mean arterial pressure(MAP),heart rate(HR),plas-ma levels of epinephrine(E)and norepinephrine(NE),cortisol(Cor)and blood sugar(Glu)and the occurrence of bucking before anesthesia induction(T0),immediately before intubation(T1),at the moment of intubation(T2), 1 min(T3)and 5 min(T4)after intubation were observed. Results Compared with these at T0,MAP and HR in 2 groups were lower at T1(P<0.05)and no significant difference was found in 2 groups(P>0.05). MAP and HR were significantly higher at T2 and T3(P < 0.05)and compared with those in group O,MAP and HR in group S were increased more significantly at T2 and T3(P<0.05). MAP and HR increased slightly at T4 in 2 groups but no significant difference was found in 2 groups(P>0.05). Plasma levels of E ,NE,Cor and Glu increased obviously at T2 and T3 in 2 groups(P < 0.05)and they were even higher in group S(P < 0.05). Plasma levels of E ,NE , Cor and Glu increased slightly at T4 in 2 groups but no significant difference was found in 2 groups(P > 0.05). Conclusion Compared with sufentanil ,oxycodone of equivalent dose used for general anesthesia induction can effectively keep smooth on hemodynamics and decrease stress response.

Objective To discuss the therapeutic effect of chemoradiotherapy on 74 patients with early stage nasal NK/T cell lymphoma and their prognostic factors. Methods 74 patients with early nasal NK/T cell lymphoma that were treated in Shanxi Cancer Hospital from January 2005 to November 2013 were analyzed retrospectively. Among them, 28 patients received radiotherapy alone, 10 patients received concurrent chemoradiotherapy and 36 patients received alone. In 36 patients with chemotherapy, 25 cases were treated with CHOP (cyclophosphamide+doxorubicin+vincristine+prednisone), 4 cases were treated with DICE (dexamethasone + etoposide + cisplatin + isofosfamide) and 7 cases were treated with L-asparaginase +dexamethasone+ifosfamide+methotrexate + etoposide. According to Ann Arbor classification, 60 patients were stage Ⅰ and 14 patients were stage Ⅱ. Kaplan-Meier test was used for survival analysis, log-rank method was used for single factor analysis, and Cox proportional hazard model was used for multi factor analysis. Results All patients completed the treatment. 24 patients were died. 3-year overall survival (OS) rate was 72.5 %. The OS rate in simple radiotherapy group was 92.7 %, simple chemotherapy group was 62.3%, and the concurrent chemoradiotherapy group was 79.1%. The OS rates in simple radiotherapy and simple chemotherapy groups had statistical difference (χ2 = 10.676, P< 0.05), The difference in the simple radiotherapy and concurrent chemoradiotherapy groups was not statistically significant (χ2= 2.019, P> 0.05). In radiotherapy alone group, the rates of complete remission (CR), partial remission (PR), stable rate and progress rate of disease were 89.3%(25/28), 7.1%(2/28), 3.6%(1/28), and 0;in chemotherapy alone group, they were 55.6 % (20/36), 25.0 % (9/36), 8.0 % (3/36), and 11.1 % (4/36); in concurrent chemoradiotherapy group, they were 80.0 % (8/ 10), 10.0 % (1/10), 0, and 10.0 % (1/10), respectively. There was significant difference between radiotherapy group and chemotherapy group (χ2 = 8.584, P< 0.05); there was no significant difference between radiotherapy group and concurrent chemoradiotherapy group (χ2=0.556, P>0.05). Single factor analysis showed that age, ECOG score, B symptoms, Ann Arbor stage, IPI and treatment options were related to the prognosis. Multivariate analysis showed that age, ECOG score and Ann Arbor stage were independent prognostic factors. Conclusions As the main treatment method of early stage nasal NK/T cell lymphoma, radiotherapy can obtain good short-term curative effect and long-term curative effect. Age, ECOG score, B symptoms, Ann Arbor stage, IPI and treatment options are related to survival prognosis. Age, ECOG score and Ann Arbor stage are the independent prognostic factors.
