Objective To observe the effect of early goal directed therapy (EGDT) on tissue perfusion,microcirculation and oxygen metabolism in patients with septic shock.Methods A prospective observational study was carried out in 69 patients with early septic shock within 24 hours.The eligible patients were treated with the standard procedure of EGDT.The partial pressure of transcutaneous oxygen (PtcO2) and transcutaneous carbon dioxide (PtcCO2) was monitored and the changes of hemodynamic data,tissue oxygen,microcirculation before and after reaching the criteria of EGDT were recorded.Results Compared with that before treatment,PtcO2,tissue oxygenation index (PtcO2/FiO2) after EGDT was increased [(78.1 ± 30.8) mmHg (1 mmHg =0.133 kPa) vs.(62.8 ± 24.1) mmHg and (141.7 ± 78.3) mmHg vs.(110.8 ± 60.5) mmHg],PtcCO2 and percutaneous arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure difference was decreased[(29.0 ±4.1) mmHg vs.(39.1 ±6.4) mmHg and (1.4 ±0.5) mmHg vs.(1.7 ±0.8) mmHg],there was significant difference(P< 0.05).There was no significant difference in PtcO2,PtcO2/FiO2,PtcCO2,central venous blood oxygen saturation,lactic acid,oxygen and oxygen consumption (P > 0.05).Conclusion EGDT can improve local tissue perfusion and microcirculation in patients with septic shock,body tissue perfusion index before and after EGDT may not be able to reflect the local tissue perfusion.

ObjectiveTo observe the effects of norepinephrine and dobutamine (NE+Dobu) on hemodynamics, tissue perfusion and oxygen metabolism in elderly patients with septic shock at different levels of mean arterial pressure (MAP). MethodsAfter aggressive fluid resuscitation,norepinephrine and dobutamine were administered in 18 elderly patients with septic shock to correct hypotension. The rate of dobutamine infusion was 5 ug. kg<'-1>. min<'-1> Norepinephrine was titrated to maintain MAP at levels of 65 mm Hg, 75 mm Hg and 85 mmHg. Four hours later, the changes of hemodynamics, oxygenation index, blood lactate, renal function and gastric pCO<,2> at every MAP level were observed. ResultsThere were no significant differences in heart rate (HR), pulmonary arterial wedge pressure (PAWP), volume of oxygen (VO<,2>), Blood lactate, pH value, △pCO<'2> and creatinine clearance rate (CCr) among the MAP levels of 65 mm Hg, 75 mm Hg and 85 mm Hg ( all P>0.05). Compared with MAP 65 mm Hg, cardiac index (CI), systemic vascular resistance index (SVRI), oxygen delivery over oxygen extraction ratio were obviously higher at MAP 75 mm Hg and 85 mm Hg [4.7±0.6, 5.1±0.7 vs. 4.0±0.6; 1162±278, 1276±319 vs. 1011±225; (697±53) ml. min<'1>. m<'2>,(711±68)ml. min<'-1>. m<'2> vs. (634±70) ml · min<'-1> · m<'2>; (0.28±0.02)%,(0.27±0.02)% vs. (0.25±0.02) %, respectively, all P<0.05). The urinary output at MAP levels of 65 mm Hg, 75 mm Hg and 85 mm Hg were (98±43)ml/h, (91±54) ml/h and(74±49)ml/h repectively, and only the differences between MAP 75 mm Hg and MAP 65 mm Hg had statistical significance (P<0.05).ConclusionsAfter aggressive fluid resuscitation, hemodynamics and renal function are improved at MAP 75 mm Hg after administration of norepinephrine and dobutamine in elderly patients with septic shock. It should be considered that MAP is appropriately increased in elderly patients with septic shock.

Objective:To explore the effect of dexmedetomidine on cough reactions and related indexes during recovery from general anesthesia in thyroid tumor surgery.Methods:A total of 90 patients with thyroid tumor who underwent general anesthesia for thyroid tumor surgery from July 2019 to July 2021 in the First People's Hospital of Shangqiu City, Henan Province were selected and divided into the observation group (45 cases) and the control group (45 cases) according to the random number table method. The observation group was given dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg intravenously at the beginning of the surgery, and the intravenous drip time should not be less than 10 min; the control group was given the same dose of normal saline intravenously. The recovery time and extubation time of the two groups were compared, and the incidence of cough reactions during the recovery from general anesthesia was compared. Changes of visual analogue scale (VAS) of pain at 6 h, 24 h and 48 h after surgery, and the changes of stress response indexes [cortisol (Cor), epinephrine (E) and norepinephrine (NE)] and pain factors [prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), neuropeptide Y (NPY) and β-endorphin (β-EP)] before and 48 h after surgery were compared.Results:The recovery time and extubation time in the observation group [(15.62 ± 3.64), (18.27 ± 4.25) min] were faster than those in the control group [(23.12 ± 4.53), (25.65 ± 3.89) min, P < 0.001]. The incidence of cough reactions during recovery from general anesthesia in the observation group [8.89% (4/45)] was lower than that in the control group [28.89% (13/45), P = 0.015]. The VAS score in the observation group was lower than that in the control group at 6 h, 24 h and 48 h after surgery ( P < 0.001). The levels of serum Cor, E and NE at 48 h after surgery in both groups were higher than those before surgery ( P < 0.001); and the serum Cor, E, and NE levels in the observation group were lower than those in the control group at 48 h after surgery ( P < 0.001). The serum PGE2 and NPY levels of the two groups at 48 h after surgery were higher than those before surgery, while β-EP level was lower than that before surgery ( P < 0.001); the serum PGE2 and NPY levels in the observation group were lower than those in the control group at 48 h after surgery, while β-EP level was higher than that in the control group ( P < 0.001). Conclusion:Dexmedetomidine can reduce the cough reactions during recovery from general anesthesia in thyroid tumor surgery, significantly reduce pain, and has little effect on stress response and pain factors.

Objective:To evaluate the test-retest reliability of MRI criteria in the 2019 Bosniak classification of cystic renal masses (CRMs) and to analyze the impact of lesions′ property, size and readers′ experience on the test-retest reliability.Methods:From January 2009 to June 2019, 207 patients with 207 CRMs were included in this retrospective study. All of them underwent renal MRI and surgical-pathologic examination. According to Bosniak classification, version 2019, all CRMs were independently classified twice by eight radiologists with different levels of experience. All radiologists were blinded to the pathology of the lesions. By using intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC), test-retest reliability was evaluated for all CRMs and for subgroups with different pathological properties (benign and malignant) and different sizes (≤40 mm and>40 mm). The test-retest reliability of 4 senior readers (≥10 years of experience) and 4 junior readers (<10 years of experience) were evaluated respectively. The comparison of ICC was performed using Z test. Results:The 207 CRMs included 111 benign lesions (83 benign cysts, 28 benign tumors) and 96 malignant tumors. There were 87 lesions with maximum diameter ≤40 mm and 120 with maximum diameter>40 mm. The test-retest reliability (ICC) of each reader for all lesions was 0.776-0.888, the overall ICC was 0.848 (95%CI 0.821-0.872). The ICCs of senior and junior readers were 0.853 (95%CI 0.824-0.880) and 0.843 (95%CI 0.811-0.871) respectively, without significant difference between the two groups ( Z=0.85, P=0.374). The ICC of all readers was 0.827 for benign lesions and 0.654 for malignant lesions, showing significant difference ( Z=2.80, P=0.005). The ICC was 0.770 for lesions ≤40 mm and 0.876 for lesions>40 mm, which was significantly different ( Z=-2.36, P=0.018). For CRM subgroups with different pathological properties and different sizes, there was no significant difference in test-retest reliability between senior and junior readers (all P>0.05). Conclusion:The test-retest reliability of MRI criteria in the 2019 Bosniak classification of CRMs is excellent and unaffected by readers′ experience. The reliabilities are not consistent among CRMs of different pathological properties and different sizes, but all reached the level of good and above.
