Objective To explore the siqnificance of event related potential(ERP) N400 on stroke patients with aphasia and provide theoretical basis for clinical operations.Methods 29 stroke patients with aphasia(aphasia group) and 58 stroke patients without aphasia(control group) were selected,which were examined with N400.The latency and amplitude of N400 were compared between the two groups.Results The difference waves' latency and amplitude of aphasia group were longer and higher than those of control group.The difference had statistical significance (all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion N400 is a significant marker for the language disturbance of aphasia patients.

Purpose:To study the effect of single lung ventilation for pneumoresection on blood gas. Methods:20 patients with lung cancer whose lung function were normal or reduced slightly before the operation were divided into 2 groups (A and B),of 10 cases each.The patients in group A underwent single lung ventilation with an endobronchial tube during the operation ,and two lung ventilation with an endotracheal in group B.Blood gas analysis was measured in every patient before, during and after the operation.Results:The values of blood gas analysis during the operation in all patients were normal and no significant difference was found between the two groups during the same time. Conclusions:The patients with lung cancer whose lung function were normal or reduced slightly before the operation can receive single lung ventilation safely for pneumoresection.[

Objective To explore effect of different withdrawal time of dexmedetomidine (DEX) on the quality of general anesthesia recovery.Methods Eighty patients of ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ undergoing lymph surgery were randomly assigned to four groups (n =20).Groups D1,D2 and D3 received DEX 0.5 μg/kg as bolus before induction,continued with 0.5 μg/(kg · h) by infusion until one hour,30 min before the end of operation and the end of operation,respectively.Group C received equal volume of normal saline.Mean artery pressure (MAP),heart rate (HR) and pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2) were observed during and after operation.Spontaneous respiration recovery time,eyes open time,extubation time,orientation recovery time,observer's assessment of alertness/sedation score (OAA/S),restlessness score (RS),and visual analogue scales (VAS) were observed after operation.Results For MAP and HR in Groups D2 and D3,there were no statistically significant difference during extubation compared to those at preoperation,but at the same time point,they were lower than those in group C (P ＜ 0.05).For groups C and D1,MAP and HR at extubation and 5 min after extubation were higher than those at preoperation (P ＜0.05).Spontaneous respiration recovery time,eyes open time,extubation time,orientation recovery time in group D3 were significantly longer than those in Group C (P ＜ 0.05),while there were no statistically significantly difference between groups D1,D2,and group C.OAA/S in group D3 was significantly lower than that in group C (P ＜ 0.05) at extubation.Incidence of restlessness,VAS,and cases given analgesic 2 hours after operation in groups D2 and D3 were significantly lower than those in groups C and D1.Compared to those in group C,dosages of propofol and remifentanil in groups D2 and D3 were significantly lower.Conclusions Dexmedetomidine administered of 0.5 μg/kg before induction,continued with infusion of 0.5 μg/(kg · h) until 30 min before the end of operation,may improve emergence,without influencing the awakening time of patients,and prolong the duration time of analgesia which comfort the patients.

Objective To explore the influence of family function on health behaviors of stroke patients and the mediating effects of depression.Methods From September 2011 to April 2012,101 stroke survivors from a certain hospital in Guangzhou were investigated with Health Promoting Lifestyle Profile Ⅱ (HPLP Ⅱ),Family Assessment Device (FAD) and Self-Rating Depression Scale (SDS).Results The mean score of overall health behavior was (2.27±0.36).The mean score of overall family function was (2.18±0.25).The score of overall depression was (37.39±7.94),which was higher than normal people.And the incidence of the stroke survivors' depression state was 29.5％.There was a correlation between family function,depression and health behavior.The depression totally mediated the influence of problem solving on health behaviors.The depression partially mediated the influence of communication,affective responsiveness,behavior control on health behaviors,and their mediating effects were 32.1％,37.4％,26.1％.Conclusions The promotion of family function and the reducing of depression can be regarded as the in-tervention to improve their health behavior.

The most important harms of atrial fibrilation are stroke and the embolic events of the systemic circulation. The latest data have show n that the etiology of up to 1/3 of stroke patients w as atrial fibrilation. The stroke morbidity and mortality caused by atrial fibrilation are higher than other types of stroke. So the prevention of stroke is very important for patients with atrial fibrilation. The anticoagulant therapy is the core strategy for stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrilation. This article reviews the advances in research on the safety and compliance of anticoagulation therapy in patients w ith atrial fibrilation.

Objective To compare shikani optical stylet and Mc coy laryngoscope on elder patients with intratracheal intubation anesthesia.Methods 112 cases of elder patients with intratracheal intubation anesthesia were enrolled as study objects, all patients were divided into shikani optical stylet group (52 cases), Mc coy laryngoscope group (60 cases) according to different intubation way. Then detect the hemodynamic parameters, stress-related indicators, EEG relevant indicators of the two groups.Results One time success rate and total success rate in Shikani visual laryngoscope group was higher than Mc Coy visual laryngoscope group, while many times intubation rate was lower (P < 0.05); T1, T2 MAP, HR levels were lower in Shikani optical stylet group than Mc Coy laryngoscope group patients (P < 0.05); Plasma levels of epinephrine, norepinephrine, and glucose on T1, T2 in Shikani optical stylet group was lower than that in Mc Coy laryngoscope group (P < 0.05); T1, T2 BIS, ECoG grading, αβ% values in Shikani optical stylet group was lower than that in Mc coy laryngoscope group (P < 0.05).Conclusions Elderly patients with intratracheal intubation anesthesia received shikani optical stylet can enhance the success rate of intubation and effectively stabilize patients circulatory system, reduce excessive physical stress caused by various system dysfunction, which shows positive significance.
