Objective To investigate the blood-saving effect of controlled low central venous pressure (CLCVP) in different types of hepatectomy.Methods Ninety ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients of both sexes,aged 37-76 yr,weighing 40-75 kg,undergoing elective hepatectomy,were divided into 6 groups according to the surgical approach and whether CLCVP was used during surgery (n =15 each):CLCVP1-3 groups and nonCLCVP1-3 groups (NCLCVP1-3 groups).The standard hepatectomy,half liver resection and irregular hepatectomy were performed in CLCVP1-3 groups,respectively,with CLCVP.The standard hepatectomy,half liver resection and irregular hepatectomy were performed in NCLCVP1-3 groups,respectively,without CLCVP.In CLCVP1-3 groups,from skin incision to the end of liver resection,CVP was maintained ≤ 5 cm H2 O through adjustment of the position,fluid restriction and iv infusion of nitroglycerin,and norepinephrine was infused simultaneously to maintain mean arterial pressure ≥ 60 mm Hg.In NCLCVP1-3 groups CVP was maintained at 6-12 cm H2O.Intraoperative blood loss and blood transfusion were recorded.Results Compared with NCLCVP1-3 groups,intraoperative blood loss was significantly decreased in CLCVP1-3 groups (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with NCLCVP3 group,the amount of blood transfusion was significantly decreased,the constituent ratio of intraoperative blood loss ＜ 200 ml was increased,and the constituent ratio of intraoperative blood loss ＞ 1000 ml was decreased in group CLCVP3 (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion CLCVP can decrease the intraoperative blood loss and blood transfusion in patients undergoing irregular hepatectomy.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical curative effect of acellular dermal matrix contrast with temporalis fascia in type Ⅰ tympanoplasty. METHODS A retrospective analysis of 60 inflammatory chronic suppurative otitis media patients from January 2014 to January 2015 in Genenral Hospital of PLA Guangzhou Military Area were conducted.All cases were perpormed the ear incision under local anesthesia, including 32 cases(32 ears) with acellular dermal matrix, 28 cases(28 ears) with temporal fascia. The operation time, postoperative pain, the healing of tympanic membrane and the postoperative recovery were compared between the two groups. RESULTS There was significant difference in the operation time and postoperative pain between the two groups(P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the success rate of tympanic membrane healing and postoperative hearing improvement(P>0.05). CONCLUSION The effect of acellular dermal matrix for repairing tympanic membrane is similar to the temporalis fascia. The use of acellular dermal matrix has the advantage of shorter operation time, less postoperative pain, and can avoid regional two incisions, it is worthy of clinical application.

Objective To evaluate the effect of small-dose ketamine on the onset time and course of modified electroconvulsive therapy (MECT) in mentally depressed rats.Methods Sixty SPF adult male SpragueDawley rats,aged 2-3 months,weighing 220-250 g,were randomly divided into 6 groups (n =10 each) using a random number table:normal control group (group C),depression group (group D),ECT group,propofol + ECT group (group PE),ketamine + ECT group (group KE) and ketamine + propofol + ECT group (group KPE).The depression model was established by chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS).Mter CUMS,C,D and ECT groups received intraperitoneal normal saline 8 ml/kg,group PE received intraperitoneal propofol 100 ml/kg,group KE received intraperitoneal ketamine 10 ml/kg,and group KPE received intraperitoneal ketamine 10 ml/kg + propofol 80 ml/kg.All the groups received ECT once a day for 7 consecutive days starting from the time point when righting reflex was lost except C and D groups.Open-field test was performed before CUMS,at 1 day after CUMS and at the end of each ECT (T0 8).The total distance and the number of standing on the back legs were recorded.Morris water maze test was performed at 2 days after CUMS and 1 day after the end of therapy,and the escape latency and time of staying at the original platform quadrant were recorded.Results Compared with group C,the total distance was shortened and the number of standing on the back legs was reduced,the escape latency was prolonged,and the time of staying at the original platform quadrant was shortened at T1-8 in D,ECT,PE and KE groups and at T1 5 in KPE group,and no significant was found in KPE group in the total distance,number of standing on the back legs,escape latency,and time of staying at the original platform quadrant at T6-8.Compared with group D,the total distance was prolonged and the number of standing on the back legs was increased at T6-8 in ECT and PE groups and at T4-8 in KE and KPE groups,the escape latency was prolonged,and the time of staying at the original platform quadrant was shortened in ECT group,and the escape latency was shortened,and the time of staying at the original platform quadrant was prolonged in KPE group.Compared with ECT and PE groups,the total distance was prolonged and the number of standing on the back legs was increased at T4-7 in group KE and at T4-8 in group KPE,and the escape latency was shortened,and the time of staying at the original platform quadrant was prolonged in KPE group.Compared with group KE,the total distance was prolonged and the number of standing on the back legs was increased at T6.7,the escape latency was shortened,and the time of staying at the original platform quadrant was prolonged in KPE group.Conclusion Small-dose ketamine can shorten the onset time and course of MECT in mentally depressed rats.

Objective To investigate the effect of controlled low central venous pressure(CLCVP) on blood loss and prognosis in different types of hepatectomy .Methods Two hundred and fifty seven patients underwent standard hepatectomy ,half liver resec‐tion or irregular partial hepatectomy from January 2011 to December 2012 in the First Affiliated Hospital of Chongqing Medical U‐niversity were retrospectively studied .Patients treated with CLCVP during hepatectomy were attributed to the CLCVP group .CVP of these patients were lowed to below 5 cm H2 O by minimizing fluid infusion and one or both of the following maneuvers :posture adjustment ,nitroglycerin administration .Alpha agonists were used when necessary to maintain the mean arterial pressure MAP at ≥60 mm Hg .Other patients been maintained with normal level of CVP by adjusting fluid administration were included in normal CVP group (NCVP) .Blood loss and transfusion volume ,length of hospital stay of the two groups were compared ,and the effects of different surgery type on CLCVP blood protection were evaluated .Results In the patients underwent standard hepatectomy or half liver resection ,intraoperative blood loss and transfusion were not statistically different between the two groups .While in the pa‐tients underwent irregular partial hepatectomy ,the CLCVP group suffered less blood loss and transfusion(P<0 .05) .Percentage of the patients with less than 200 mL blood loss and no transfusion of concentrated red cell in CLCVP group was higher than that of in NCVP group(P<0 .05) .Differences between the two groups in postoperative hospital stay were with no significance in all the operation types(P>0 .05) .Conclusion The efficiency of CLCVP on blood protection during hepatectomy is influenced by the sur‐gery type ,the blood protection is found to be significant only in irregular partial hepatectomy .No relationship was found between CLCVP and postoperative hospital stay in all types of hepatectomy .

Objective To investigate the role of autophagy and synaptophysin (SYP) in cognitive impairment in de?pressed rats receiving electroconvulsive shock (ECS). Methods Clean and healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were acclimatized to a standard laboratory environment for 7 days. The chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS) was used to establish the rat model of depression. Behavior tests were conducted before and after CUMS to evaluate the depression and cognition level of rats. After establishment of the model, 24 rats were randomly divided into ESC group (group E) and depression group (group D) with 12 rats in each group. The rats in group E were administered 80 mg/kg of propofol (10 mg/mL) by intraperitoneal injection, followed by ECS treatment. The rats in group D were administered propofol by intra?peritoneal injection, followed by sham-ECS treatments. The above interventions were conducted daily for 7 consecutive days. After the interventions, rats underwent behavior tests as before. Subsequently, rats were killed and specimens were collected for measurements. Immunohistochemistry was performed to examine autophagy markers such as Beclin 1 and LC3Ⅱand ELISA was used to detect SYP in the hippocampus. Results Group E after ECS significantly increased the percentage of sucrose preference (68.2%±8.7%), rearing times (7.0±1.9), total horizontal distance [(569.5±70.0) cm], es? cape latency [(21.9±5.3)s] and space exploration time [(20.5±3.9)s] compared with group D or group E before ECS. There was no significant difference in these index between groups before ECS or in group E between before and after ECS(P>0.05). Compared with group D, group E had upregulated protein expression levels of Beclin 1 and LC3Ⅱin CA1, CA3, DG as well as the area near the hippocampus and increased SYP contents (P<0.05). Conclusions Cognitive impairment in depression rats following ECS correlates with activated autophagy and increased SYP by ECS.

Objective To investigate the effects of ketamine on neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) activity and carboxy-terminal PDZ ligand of nNOS (CAPON) expression in the prefrontal lobe of mentally depressed rats.Methods Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 2.5-3.0 months,weighing 210-260 g,were used in the study.Menial depression was induced by exposing the rats to chronic unpredictable mild stress.Twenty-four animals in which mental depression was successfully induced were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =12 each):mental depression group (group D) and ketamine group (group K).Another 12 rats were chosen and served as control group (group C).Group K received intraperitoneal ketamine 10 mg/kg once a day for 7 consecutive days,while groups C and D received intraperitoneal normal saline 10 ml/kg instead of ketamine.Sucrose preference test and open field test were performed before administration and at 1 day after the end of administration.The total distance,number of rearing and sucrose preference percentage (SPP) were recorded.The rats were sacrificed 1 day after the last test for determination of the expression of nNOS and CAPON protein (using immuno-histochemistry)and mRNA (by RT-PCR) in the prefrontal lobe.Results Compared with group C,the total distance was shortened,the number of rearing and SPP were significantly decreased,the expression of nNOS protein and mRNA was up-regulated and the expression of CAPON protein and mRNA was down-regulated in groups D and K (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with group D,the total distance was prolonged,the number of rearing and SPP were significantly increased,the expression of nNOS and mRNA was down-regulated and the expression of CAPON protein and mRNA was up-regulated in group K (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Ketamine can improve the depressive state through promoting the expression of CAPON and inhibiting nNOS activity in the prefrontal lobe of mentally depressed rats.

Totally 1 360 pregnant women during the first trimesters (4-12 weeks) who visited Ningbo University Affiliated Hospital and Ningbo Jiangbei Maternal Health Hospital from February 2010 to October 2011,and 216 non-pregnant healthy women,who contemporaneous by visited the hospital,were enrolled in this study.The thyroid screening was made by determining urinary iodine and serum free thyroxine,free triiodothyronine,total thyroxine,total triiodothyronine,thyrotropin,and thyroid peroxidase antibody (TPOAb).The median concentration of urinary iodine in the pregnant women was not different from that of non-pregnant women (P＞0.05) ; 1 360 pregnant women were screened,268 (19.71％) of them were identified to suffer from thyroid disorders or with positive thyroid autoantibody.29(13.43％) of non-pregnant women were identified to suffer from thyroid disorders or with positive thyroid autoantibody.There was significant difference between the 2 groups (x2 =4.40,P＜0.05).Prevalence of thyroid dysfunction may increase during early pregnancy.The screening for thyroid function and autoantibody should be recommended in that period.
