Chinese Journal of Anesthesiology 2009;29(9):814-815
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of jaw thrust device in the upper airway obstruction. Methods Thirty-five ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged 18-64 yr with body mass index < 30 kg/m~2 undergoing elective surgery under general anesthesia were included in this study. The anesthesia face mask was placed and held tightly by 4 straps of JTD and connected to the anesthesia machine. Anesthesia was induced with midazolam, propefol, fentanyl and atracurium. When muscle relaxation was achieved, tracheal intubation was not performed. The airway obstruction was assessed by airway peak pressure and stridor score (breathing sounds detected by auscultation over the trachea). And then tracheal intubation was performed, and the patients were mechanically ventilated. Results There was no significant difference in airway pressure and stridor scores between JTD and jaw thrust maneuver. Conclusion JTD can effectively lift the jaw and improve the upper airway obstruction.

Objective To evaluate the clinical application of serum CYFRA21-1 detection during the diagnosis of lung cancer. Methods Serum level of CYFRA21-1 in 196 patients with lung cancer and 39 healthy controls were determined by the Elctro-chemiluminescence Immuno-assay ( ECLIA) , respectively. Results Serum level of CYFRA21 -1 ( range from 0. 30 μgg/L to 500.00 μg/L) in patients with lung cancer were significantly higher than those in the healthy control ( range from 0. 27 μg/L to 3. 29 μg/L,Z = -4. 65,P < 0.01). ROC analysis of diagnosis efficiency showed that the area under curve ( AUC) was 0. 735 (P < 0. 001 ). The confidence interval of 95% was from 0. 663 to 0. 807. Positive detection rate of CYFRA21-1 was 48. 8% (39/80) in squamous,31.7% (20/63) in adenocarcinoma and 22. 6% (12/53) in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) respectively, as well as total positive rate was 36. 2% (71/196). Stepwise regression analysis showed that serum level of CYFRA21-1 had a linear correlation with the squamous and the metastasis to liver or bone (r =0. 505 ,P <0. 05). Conclusions Serum level of CYFRA21-1 increases the diagnostic sensitivity, which is helpful for determining histological types, monitoring the metastasis of liver and bone, and evaluating the treatment response in patients with lung cancer.

OBJECTIVETo observe the effect of needling "Housanli" (ST 36) with different retaining-needle time on the pain threshold of mice using the hot water tail-flick test, and investigate the relationship between the retaining-needle time and the therapeutic effect.
METHODSTwenty-four healthy mice were randomly divided into four groups: no retaining-needle group (group A), retaining-needle 10 min group (group B), retaining-needle 20 min group (group C) and retaining-needle 30 min group (group D), with 6 mice for each group. After acupuncture "Housanli", the tail of mouse was put into the hot water at 50 degrees C, and the intervening time from the tail entered water to the tail flicked out of water was recorded and analyzed for each group.
RESULTSAfter acupuncturing "Housanli", the pain threshold was significantly improved with the hot water tail-flick test in both group A and group C (both P<0.01), however, there was no significant difference in both group B and group D (both P>0.05). Within 30 min of retaining-needle, the effect curve of acupuncture analgesia was showed in a waved line. In contrast, the maximum value of latent period on the tail-flick was detected in the group C that was the biggest effect of acupuncture analgesia among the four groups.
CONCLUSIONThe best retaining-needle time of hand-acupuncture for acupuncture analgesia is 20 min.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility of reconstructing horizontal periodontal bone defects by tissue engineering based on bone marrow stromal cells(BMSCs)as seed cells and enamel matrix proteins(EMPs)as growth factors. Methods Two healthy rhesus monkeys were selected, and BMSCs were isolated from iliac marrow and serial subcultivation was conducted. The cells of induced BMSCs at passage 3 were harvested and mixed with Bio-oss collagen. The models of horizontal periodontal bone defects were established surgically in each buccal side of the posterior teeth, and were divided into four groups (blank control group, material group, cells/material group and cells/material/EMPs group). The histological and Micro-CT observation were carried out 8 weeks later. Results In the blank control group, the defects were filled with fibrous connective tissue. There was newly-formed alveolar bone in the material group. In the cells/material group, periodontal regeneration could be observed, while the newly-formed cementum was irregular and less in quantity. In the cells/material/EMPs group, the amount of newly-formed alveolar bone was larger, and the newly-formed cementum was continuous and regular. Conclusion The tissue engineering technique of BMSCs as seed cells in combination with EMPs induction can significantly promote the regeneration of periodontal tissue.
