Objective To study the effects of sitting position on pulmonary hemodynamics and intrapulmonary shunt (Qs/Qt) during neurosurgery. Methods Twenty eight patients scheduled for posterior fossa and posterior cervical spinal surgery, were anesthetized with sevoflurane fentanyl pancuronium or enflurane fentanyl pancuronium after intravenous induction. Pulmonary hemodynamics were monitored with Swan Ganz catheter technique and Qs/Qt was calculated from the data of arterial and mixture venous blood gas analysis, including the following parameters: CI, RAP, MPAP, PCWP, PVRI, pHa, PaCO 2, PaO 2, PaO 2/FiO 2 and Qs/Qt. The detection time points were as the follow: before anesthesia induction, before sitting position, immediately ,60 min and 120min after sitting position, and at the supine position after termination of surgery.Results After induction of anesthesia and during operation at sitting position, CI decreased significantly (P0.05).Conclusions During neurosurgical procedure under general anesthesia and sitting position, pulmonary vascular auto regulation can be preserved and pulmonary oxygenation can be kept in normal.

Objective To assess the effect of surgical repair of medial orbital wall combined with orbital floor fracture via lower lid subciliary approach. Design Retrospective case series. Participants 18 cases of medial orbital wall combined with orbital floor fracture. Methods All patients underwent the reconstruction of orbital wall via lower lid subciliary approach. The composite hydroxyapatite was implanted into the surface of medial orbital wall and orbital floor after lacriminal cyst was completely dissected and protected during the operation. Orbital axial and coronal CT, three-dimension CT scan have been used in all the cases preoperalively and postoperatively. Preoperative CT was compared with postoperative CT. Main Outcome Measures Clinical symptoms and complications. Results All patients were followed up for 3 to 18 months. The postoperative scar of infracillary skin was not obvious. The composite hydroxyapatite was not rejected and dislocated in all cases postoperatively. No postoperative epiphora was found in either case. Preoperative diplopia and enophthalmos were corrected.

Objective: To explore the changing features of plasma amino-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) level in patients with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HCM) after alcohol septal ablation (ASA). Methods: A total of 82 HCM patients treated by ASA in our hospital were studied. According to plasmalevel of NT-proBNP, the patients were divided into 2 groups: High NT-proBNP group and Low NT-proBNP group,n=41 in each group. Plasma NT-proBNP was examined by ELISA; ventricular septal thickness (VST), left ventricular posterior wall thickness (LVPWT), maximal ventricular wall thickness (MLVWT) and left atrial diameter (LAD) were measured by echocardiography. There were 50 patients ifnished 1 year clinical or in-hospital follow-up, their NT-proBNP level and echocardiography were detected at 2 days and 1 year post-operation.The relationship between echocardiography parameter and NT-proBNP level was assessed; NT-proBNP was compared between pre- and 2 days, 1 year post-operation. Results:①In all 82 patients: compared with Low NT-proBNP group, High NT-proBNP group had increased VST (23.66±6.46) mm vs (20.79±4.56) mm,P=0.035, LVPWT (12.79±2.99) mm vs (11.50±2.35) mm,P=0.048, MLVWT (28.03±5.66) mm vs (25.18±4.81) mm,P=0.027 and LAD (40.73±4.86) mm vs (38.08±6.17) mm,P=0.049.②In 50 patients who ifnished 1 year follow-up study: compared with pre-operation, NT-proBNP level was slightly increased at 2 days post-operation (1841.79±1310.88) fmol/ml vs (1552.15±951.57) fmol/ml,P=0.066, while decreased at 1 year post-operation (1038.46±714.03) fmol/ml vs (1552.15±951.57) fmol/ml,P=0.000. Conclusion: Plasma NT-proBNP level was affected by atrial size and ventricular thickness in HCM patients, it may obviously decrease during long-term follow-up period.

Objective To establish and validate a modified rat thromboembolic stroke model.Methods After taking femoral arterial blood and mixing it with thrombin,they were injected into PE-50 catheter for preparing in vitro thrombosis in 60 Sprague-Dawley rats.A thromboembolic cerebral ischemia model induced by catheterization of the right external carotid artery and the small blood clot emboli were injected into the internal carotid arteries.Thirty rats were randomly divided into a large number of emboli group (n =10 with 12 emboli),a median number of emboli group (n =10 with 10 emboli) and a small number of emboli group (n =10 with 8 emboli).Two hours after embolus injection,the neurological deficit score was performed and the success rate of the model was compared in all groups.Twenty-four hours after embolus injection,the rats were sacrificed and the brains were removed for 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining.The hemorrhage,infarct volume,bleeding incidence and mortality after cerebral infarction were evaluated.The high success rates of the modeling in the emboli groups were selected and they were randomly divided into either a normal saline group (n =12) or a recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rtPA) group (n =12).The rats were given normal saline and rtPA at 3 hours after embolus injection.Before embolus injection and 2,6,12 and 24 hours after embolus injection,the neurological scores were performed respectively; 24 hours after embolus injection,the rats were sacrificed and the brains were removed for 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining.The hemorrhage rate,infarction size,degree of cerebral edema,and blood-brain barrier permeability were evaluated.Results Only 40％ of rats had neurological deficits in the small number of emboli group,and the infarct volume was only 10.54 ± 2.82％.The success rates in the median and large number of emboli groups were 80％ and 100％ respectively.They were all significantly higher than those in the small number of emboli group (P =0.011 ).The infarct volume was also significantly greater than that in the small number of emboli group (F =40.897,P =0.000).After administration of rtPA,the mean survival time of the rats in the large number of emboli group was less than 24 hours,so the median number of emboli group was selected to study the thrombolytic effect of rtPA.The infarct volume and neurological function score in the rtPA group were improved significantly compared to the normal saline group (t =7.728,P =0.000),while there were no significant differences in the hemorrhage rate,degree of brain edema and blood-brain barrier permeability between the 2 groups.Conclusions The stability and reproducibility were good in the modified thromboembolic cerebral ischemia model injected with 10 emboli,the neurological function was improved significantly after thrombolysis,and it was applicable to the experimental study of pathophysiology of cerebral ischemia and thrombolytic therapy.
