Objective To evaluate the effect of ultra-low dose naloxone on postoperative hyperalgesia caused by large-dose remifentanil.Methods Forty ASA Ⅰ-Ⅲ adult patients,scheduled for gastrointestinal surgery,were randomly assigned into 2 groups (n =20 each):large dose remifentail group (group R) and ultra-low dose naloxone group (group N).Anesthesia was induced with iv injection of remifentanil,propofol and cisatracurium and maintained with inhalation of sevoflurane and infusion of remifentanil.The patients were tracheal intubated and mechanically ventilated.In group R,remifentanil was infused at a rate of 0.25 μg· kg-1 · min-1 starting from the beginning of skin incision.The infusion rate was adjusted according to hemodynamics during operation and subsequently increased/decreased by 0.05 μg· kg-1· min-1 each time.In group N,naloxone was infused at 0.1 μg·kg-1· h-1 while infusing remifentanil,naloxone infusion was stopped at the beginning of peritoneum closure and the other treatments were similar to those previously described in group R.All patients were sent to post-anesthesia care unit after surgery and stayed there for 90 min.Morphine was given when need.The patient-controlled intravenous analgesia was used for postoperative analgesia after leaving post-anesthesia care unit.The first pain time was calculated.The morphine consumption and complications such as nausea,vomiting and pruritus were recorded at 15,30,60 and 90 min and 2,6,24,48 and 72 h after surgery.Results Compared with group R,the morphine consumption was significantly reduced at each time point after surgery,the first pain time was prolonged,and incidence of nausea was decreased (P ＜ 0.05),while no significant change was found in the incidence of vomiting and prutirus in group N (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Infusing ultra-low dose naloxone (0.1μg· kg-1 ·h-1) during operation can attenuate postoperative hyperalgesia caused by large-dose remifentanil in patients.

Objective To study a new closed medical waste transportation vehicle. Methods The carriage,doors,floor drains pipes and spray system are all used in stainless steel materials with made through the welding. Results The vehicle can protect medical staffs from pollution of medical waste and enhance occupational health protection for staff. Conclusion The vehicle is closed that has the function of 360? spray cleaning and disinfection system,and it many advantages such as the use of safe,effective,energy saving,convenient and development application.

Objective To evaluate the value and short-term efficacy of Miccoli for cervical lymph node dissection in patients with thyroid papillary carcinoma.Methods From Mar.2017 to Jan.2018,15 patients with thyroid papillary carcinoma received cervical lymph node dissection in Department of Thyroid and Breast Surgery of Nanjing Chinese Traditional Medicine Hospital,and they were divided into open surgery group (8 cases) and Miccoli surgery group (7 cases).The operation time,incision length,intraoperative blood loss,total number of dissection lymph nodes,incidence of postoperative complications and length of hospital stay between the two groups were analyzed.These groups were followed up for 6 months after surgery,in terms of neck comfort,incidence of enlarged lymph nodes in the cervical region and blood thyroglobulin level.Results There was no obvious difference between the two groups in intraoperative blood loss(P=0.651),total number of dissection lymph nodes(P=0.887),the incidence of postoperative complications(P=0.52),incidence of intumescent lymph node(P=1.000) and blood thyroglobulin level(P=0.826) after 6 months.The operation time of Miccoli group was longer than that of the open group(P=0.001),but the incision length(P=0.001),length of hospital stay(P=0.001)and postoperative neck comfort(P=0.001)were superior to those of the open surgery group.Conclusion Miccoli operation can be used to perform cervical lymph node dissection for PTC patients,which can achieve the curative effect of open surgery,without increasing the risk of postoperative complications,and the postoperative neck comfort was better.

As an important part of tumor microenvironment, neutrophils are poorly understood due to their spatiotemporal heterogeneity in tumorigenesis. Here we defined, at single-cell resolution, CD44-CXCR2- neutrophils as tumor-specific neutrophils (tsNeus) in both mouse and human gastric cancer (GC). We uncovered a Hippo regulon in neutrophils with unique YAP signature genes (e.g., ICAM1, CD14, EGR1) distinct from those identified in epithelial and/or cancer cells. Importantly, knockout of YAP/TAZ in neutrophils impaired their differentiation into CD54+ tsNeus and reduced their antitumor activity, leading to accelerated GC progression. Moreover, the relative amounts of CD54+ tsNeus were found to be negatively associated with GC progression and positively associated with patient survival. Interestingly, GC patients receiving neoadjuvant chemotherapy had increased numbers of CD54+ tsNeus. Furthermore, pharmacologically enhancing YAP activity selectively activated neutrophils to suppress refractory GC, with no significant inflammation-related side effects. Thus, our work characterized tumor-specific neutrophils in GC and revealed an essential role of YAP/TAZ-CD54 axis in tsNeus, opening a new possibility to develop neutrophil-based antitumor therapeutics.
