OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of dexmedetomidine combined with mild hypothermia on the levels of High mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1), Toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) and Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 1 (Trem-1) in lung tissues of sepsis model rats. METHODS: Totally 100 SD rats were randomly divided into sham operation group (normal saline), model group (normal saline), dexmedetomidine group (2 μg/kg), mild hypothermia group (normal saline+anal temperature 32-35 ℃ caused by whole body spraying of cold water) and combination group (dexmedetomidine 2 μg/kg+anal temperature 32-35 ℃ caused by whole body spraying of cold water), with 20 rats in each group. Except that sham operation group received sham operation, sepsis model was induced in other groups. After ligation and incision, the corresponding drugs were pumped into the jugular vein and the corresponding body temperature was maintained. Plasma samples were collected 6 h after operation. Interleukin 1 (IL-1), IL-6, tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) were determined by ELISA. The lung wet mass/dry mass ratio (W/D) was calculated by weighing the mass. Lung tissue sections were observed by HE staining, and lung injury scores were scored. The activity of MPO in lung tissue was determined by immunoturbidimetry. The expression of HMGB1,TLR4 and Trem-1 protein was determined by Western blot. RESULTS: Compared with sham operation group, the contents of IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-α, W/D, lung injury score, MPO activity, the protein expression of HMGB1, TLR4 and Trem-1 were increased significantly, with statistical significance (P<0.05); lung tissue section showed that alveolar wall was obviously thickened; a large number of inflammatory cells infiltrated; blood vessels were obviously dilated and congested. Compared with model group, above indexes of rats in dexmedetomidine group, mild hypothermia group and combination group were decreased significantly, with statistical significance (P<0.05); the degree of pathological changes in lung tissue was significantly reduced. Compared with dexmedetomidine group and mild hypothermia group, above indexes of combination group were decreased more significantly, with statistical significance (P<0.05). Alveolar walls were thickened, inflammatory cell infiltration was relieved significantly and no vascular diatation and congestion was found. CONCLUSIONS: Dexmedetomidine combined with mild hypothermia can significantly improve lung injury in sepsis model rats, and down-regulate the protein expression of HMGB1, TLR4 and Trem-1. Therapeutic efficacy of combination therapy is better than single therapy.

Objective To approach the predictive value of continuous monitoring end-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure (PETCO2) on the outcome of in-hospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), and explored the indicators of termination of resuscitation. Methods A secondary analysis of a multicenter observational study data was conducted. The screening aim was adult non-traumatic in-hospital CPR patients whose PETCO2were recorded within 30 minutes of CPR. Clinical information was reviewed. The mean PETCO2in restoration of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) and non-ROSC patients was recorded. The outcome of CPR was continuously assessed by PETCO2≤ 10 mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa) for 1, 3, 5, 8, 10 minutes. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was plotted, and the predictive value of PETCO2≤ 10 mmHg for different duration on the outcome of CPR was evaluated. Results A total of 467 recovery patients, including 419 patients with complete recovery were screened. Patients who were out-of-hospital resuscitation, non-adults, traumatic injury, had no PETCO2value, PETCO2value failed to explained the clinical conditions, or patients had not monitored PETCO2within 30 minutes of resuscitation were excluded, and finally 120 adult patients with non-traumatic in-hospital resuscitation were enrolled in the analysis. The mean PETCO2in 50 patients with ROSC was significantly higher than that of 70 non-ROSC patients [mmHg: 17 (11, 27) vs. 9 (6, 16), P < 0.01]. ROC curve analysis showed that the area under ROC curve (AUC) of PETCO2during the resuscitation for predicting recovery outcome was 0.712 [95% confidence interval (95%CI) = 0.689-0.735]; when the cut-off was 10.5 mmHg, the sensitivity was 57.8%, and the specificity was 78.0%, the positive predictive value (PPV) was 84.6%, and negative predictive value (NPV) was 46.9%. The duration of PETCO2≤ 10 mmHg was used for further analysis, which showed that with PETCO2≤10 mmHg in duration, the prediction of the sensitivity of the patients failed to recover decreased from 58.2% to 28.2%, but specificity increased from 39.4% to 100%; PPV increased from 40% to 100%, and NPV decreased from 57.5% to 34.2%. Conclusion For adult non-traumatic in-hospital CPR patients, continuous 10 minutes PETCO2≤10 mmHg may be an indicate of termination of CPR.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of parecoxib sodium ,flurbiprofen axetil and lornoxicam combined with patient controlled intravenous analgesia (PICA) on postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopic surgery and its effect on serum related factors. METHODS :A total of 280 patients who underwent gynecologic laparoscopic surgery in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Hainan Medical University from Mar. 2017 to Mar. 2019 were randomly divided into control group (group C ),parecoxib sodium group (group P ),and flurbiprofen axetil group (group F )and lornoxicam group (group L )acording to random number table ,with 70 patients in each group. Four groups of patients received Sodium chloride injection 5 mL,Parecoxib sodium for injection 40 mg,Flurbiprofen axetil injection 50 mg and Lornoxicam for injection 8 mg (added 8 mg when the effect was not good )intravenously at 30 min before the end of surgery. At the end of surgery ,they were given PICA of Sufentanil citrate injection and Dizosin injection for analgesia. The situation of pain and nausea symptom were evaluated at 6,12,24 and 48 h after surgery by using numerical rating scale (NRS). The levels of serum CRP ,IL-6,SP and PGE 2 were detected by chemiluminescence method and ELISA. The times of pressing PICA pump and the dosage of analgesic were recorded in 4 groups within 24 h after surgery. The ADRs of patients within 48 h after surgery were recorded ,such as bloating , dizziness,itchy skin ,respiratory depression and urinary retention. RESULTS :At different time points ,the NRS scores of pain of group P ,F and L were significantly lower than those of group C ;and 48 h after surgery ,NRS score of pain of group L was significantly lower than those of group P and F (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the level of CRP ,IL-6,SP and PGE2 of 4 groups before surger (P>0.05). The CRP ,IL-6,SP and PGE 2 levels at each time point after surgery of group P ,F and L were significantly lower than those of group C ;compared with group P ,serum level of SP at 48 h after surgery as well as serum levels of PGE 2 at 12,24 and 48 h after surgery were significantly decreased in group F ,and serum level of IL- 6 at 48 h after surgery,serum levels of SP at 24 and 48 h after surgery ,serum levels of PGE 2 at 12,24,48 h after surgery were decreased significantly in group L ;compared with group F ,serum level of SP at 48 h after surgery as well as serum levels of PGE 2 at 12, 24,48 h after surgery were all decreased significantly in group L (P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of anausea and vomiting among 4 groups(P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS :Parecoxib sodium ,flurbiprofen axetil and lornoxicam combined with PICA can effectively relieve the pain of patients after gynecological laparoscopic surgery and reduce the levels of serum related factor ,and lornoxicam has the most obvious effect.

Objective: Ban Fenghe recorded in the Quality Standard of Yao Medicine of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region (Volume 1) is derived from the dried stems and leaves of Semiliquidambar cathayensis. It is usually confused with medicinal herbs from Pterospermum heterophyllum and Dendropanax dentiger. However, they are very different in chemical composition, and should not be used as the same drug. To ensure their safety and efficacy, a method based on macroscopic and microscopic characteristics was developed to distinguish them. Methods: A total of 14 batches of Ban Fenghe samples from three species were collected from different producing areas in China. The macroscopic characteristics were examined by observing external traits. The tissue structures of transverse sections of stems and leaves, the leaf epidermis, and the powder were observed microscopically. Results: The branchlets and leaf surfaces of S. cathayensis and P. heterophyllum were hairy, especially the lower leaf surfaces of P. heterophyllum were densely covered with hairs, but those of D. dentiger were hairless. The pericyclic fibers of S. cathayensis stems were intermittently distributed in a circular shape and accompanied by stone cells, whereas those of P. heterophyllum and D. dentiger were bundled without stone cells. So stone cells and hairs were present in S. cathayensis powder, stone cells were not found in P. heterophyllum and D. dentiger powder, and hairs were not present in D. dentiger powder. The distribution sites, sizes and types of secretory tissues of these three species were also different in transverse sections of stems and leaves. Stomata on the lower epidermis of S. cathayensis leaves were paracytic, whereas those of P. heterophyllum and D. dentiger were anomocytic. Conclusion: Ban Fenghe drugs derived from S. cathayensis could readily be distinguished from those of P. heterophyllum and D. dentiger by macroscopic and microscopic features.
