Objective To investigate the influence of acute hypervolemic hemodilution (AHH) on pharmacodaynamics of cisatracurium in patients undergoing general anesthesia. Methods Sixty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged 18-60 yr scheduled for major abdominal surgery under general anesthesia were randomly allocated into 2 groups (n = 30 each): control group and AHH group. Each group was further divided into 3 subgroups according to the initial dose of cisatracurium (30, 40, 50 μg/kg) . The radial artery and right internal jugular vein were cannulated. BP, HR, CVP, SpO_2, P_(ET) CO_2 and body temperature were continuously monitored. The response of left adductor pollicis muscle to TOF stimulation of ulna nerve was monitored using TOF- Watch~R SX (Organon). Both groups received 10 ml/kg multiple electrolyte solution (plasma-Lyte A) during induction of anesthesia. In group AHH 15 ml/kg 6% hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 130/0.4 solution was infused via internal jugular vein over 30-40 min in addition to plasma-Lyte A. Five minutes after completion of plasma-Lyte A or HES, cisatracurium 30, 40 or SO fig/kg was injected iv in the respective subgroups. After the maximal T_1 block was achieved, the second dose was given to reach a total dose of 100 μg/kg. The onset time, duration of clinical action, total duration of action and recovery index were recorded. The doses for 50% , 90% and 95% T_1 depression (ED_(50), ED_(90), ED_(95)) were calculated by Probit method. Results The ED_(50), ED_(90), ED_(95) of cisatracurium were significantly higher in AHH group than in control group. The onset time of cisatracurium was significantly longer but clinical and total duration of action was significantly shorter in AHH group than in control group. There was no significant difference in recovery index between the two groups. Conclusion AHH can decrease the potency of cisatracurium.

Objective To establish a rabbit model of acute lung injury induced by one-lung ventilation (OLV) .Methods Sixteen New Zealand white rabbits weighing 2.3-2.7 kg were randomly divided into 2 groups (n=8 each):conventional tidal volume(VT) group (group Ⅰ) and high VT group (group Ⅱ).All the rabbits were tracheostomized and a tracheal tube was inserted into the right bronchus for right lung ventilation in the two groups. VT was set at 6 ml/kg in group Ⅰ and at 12 ml/kg in group Ⅱ and the other ventilatory parameters were the same in the two groups (FiO2 50% , RR 40 bpm, I∶E=1∶2). Immediately before OLV(T0) and at 1, 2 and 3 h of OLV (T1-3), peak airway pressure was measured and arterial blood samples were taken for blood gas analysis and oxygenation index (OI) was calculated. The animals were sacrificed at 3 h of OLV and lung tissues obtained for microscopic examination.The lung injury was scored. W/D lung weight ratio was calculated. Bron-choalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) was collected for measurement of protein concentrations and neutrophil counts. Results The peak airway pressure was significantly higher at T1-3 in group Ⅱ and OI was significantly lower at T2,3 in the two groups than those at T0(P<0.05) .W/D lung weight ratio and lung injury scores of the right lung were significantly lower than those of the left lung in the two groups(P<0.05).The peak airway pressure was significantly higher at T1-3, OI was significantly lower at T3, and W/D lung weight ratio, protein concentrations and neutrophil counts in BALF and lung injury scores of the right lung were significantly higher in group Ⅱ than in group Ⅰ(P<0.05). Conclusion OLV with VT of 12 ml/kg for 3 h can successfully establish a rabbit model of acute lung injury.

Objective:To explore the effect of the glycemic load food exchange method based on the information-motivation-behavioral skills (IMB) model in the diet intervention of obese patients with type 2 diabetes.Methods:From March to November 2019, convenience sampling was used to select 70 obese patients with type 2 diabetes in the Outpatient Department of Endocrinology of a Class Ⅲ Grade A hospital as the research object. According to the random number table method, patients were divided into control group and experimental group, with 35 cases in each group. Control group implemented the diet intervention of traditional food exchange, and experimental group carried out the diet intervention of the glycemic load food exchange method based on the IMB model. We compared the fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, triglycerides, total cholesterol, body mass index (BMI) , waist circumference, and the Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities (SDSCA) score of patients between two groups before and after intervention.Results:The number of patients who completed the intervention in control group and experimental group were 32 and 34 respectively. The fasting blood glucose, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, triglycerides, total cholesterol, BMI, and waist circumference of experimental group after intervention were lower than those of control group, and the SDSCA scale score was higher than that of control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The application of the glycemic load food exchange method based on the IMB model in diet intervention in obese patients with type 2 diabetes can improve the patients' self-management behavior, blood glucose, blood lipids, and anthropometric indicators, and can increase the diet intervention effect of obese patients with type 2 diabetes.

Objective:To explore the effect of perioperative aspirin administration on intraoperative and postoperative bleeding in patients undergoing video-assisted thoracoscopic (VATS) pulmonary wedge resection.Methods:Sixty-three patients scheduled for VATS pulmonary wedge resection in Shougang Hospital of Peking University from November 2020 to April 2022 were randomly assigned in 2 groups. All patients had a history of aspirin taking, patients in study group ( n=32) continued aspirin taking perioperatively, and patients in the control group ( n=31) stopped taking aspirin for 7 days before surgery and resumed taking 3 days after surgery. The volume of intraoperative blood lost, operation time, postoperative drainage volume, thoracic drainage tube placement time, postoperative hospital stay, postoperative thrombosis of lower extremity, perioperative cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, and postoperative wound healing were documented and compared between the two groups. Results:There were no significant differences in age, gender, oral aspirin time, lesion location, lesion nature, localization, lesion size and underlying disease between the two groups (all P>0.05). All patients successfully completed the operation, and no patients switched to thoracotomy. The intraoperative blood loss in study group and control group was (27.72±12.86) ml and (31.35±13.81) ml ( t=1.08, P=0.283); the operation time was (61.16±10.24) minutes and (61.39±13.79) minutes, respectively ( t=0.08, P=0.940). There were no significant differences in postoperative thoracic drainage, drainage tube placement time, length of hospital stay, incidence of lower extremity thrombosis, incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular events, and rate of poor wound healing between the two groups (all P>0.05). Conclusion:Perioperative administration of aspirin may not increase intraoperative and postoperative bleeding, and the incidence of operation-related complications in patients undergoing VATS pulmonary wedge resection.

Objective:To investigate the relationship between preoperative serum thyroglobulin (Tg) and clinical data with the risk of cervical lymph node metastasis in patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) .Methods:Data of 395 PTC patients who underwent surgery from Feb. 2016 to Jun. 2019 at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University were retrospectively analyzed. Based on whether cervical lymph nodes had metastasis, patients were classified into central lymph node metastasis positive group ( n=195 cases) , central lymph node metastasis negative group ( n=200 cases) , lateral lymph node metastasis positive group ( n=72 cases) , and lateral lymph node metastasis negative group ( n=323 cases) .Then the relationship between age, sex, multifocality, tumor diameter, capsular invasion, preoperative TSH and preoperative Tg with lymph node metastasis were analyzed by SPSS. Comparisons between groups were performed by χ2 test and rank sum test. Prediction efficiency of the preoperative Tg and Logistic regression model was estimated by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. A total of 100 PTC patients confirmed by pathological results in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from Jul. 2019 to Apr. 2020 were selected as the validation data. Results:Multi-factor Logistic regression showed that age, tumor diameter, capsular invasion and preoperative Tg were independent risk factors of central cervical lymphatic metastasis ( P<0.05) ; Tumor diameter, capsular invasion, central cervical lymphatic metastasis and preoperative Tg were independent risk factors of lateral cervical lymphatic metastasis ( P<0.05) . The area under the ROC curve (AUC) for diagnosing central lymph node metastasis by preoperative Tg was 0.710, with a sensitivity of 49.2%, and specificity of 88.5%. The AUC for diagnosing lateral lymph node metastasis by preoperative Tg was 0.728, with a sensitivity of 59.7%, and specificity of 89.5%. The AUC for diagnosing central lymph node metastasis by the prediction model was 0.773, with a sensitivity of 78.5%, and specificity of 64.5%.The AUC for diagnosing lateral lymph node metastasis by the prediction model was 0.869, with a sensitivity of 84.7%, and specificity of 70.3%. Conclusions:The preoperative serum Tg level is correlated with cervical lymph node metastasis in PTC patients. But the Logistic regression model based on preoperative Tg and other independent risk factors shows a better predictive value.

Objective:To explore the relationship between early maladaptive schemas, defense styles and mental health in patients with depression, and to investigate the mediating effects of defense styles between early maladaptive schemas and mental health.Methods:A total of 87 outpatients with depression were assessed with the Young schema questionnaire-short form 2(YSQ-SF2), defense style questionnaire(DSQ), symptom checklist-90(SCL-90) and Beck depression inventory(BDI). SPSS Process program and Bootstrap method were used to explore the mediating effect of defense styles.Results:The scores of abandonment/instability were higher in females than those in males (2(0.5, 4), 0(0, 1.25), Z=-2.963, P=0.003) while the score of emotional inhibition was higher in males than in females (1(0, 3), 0(0, 2), Z=-2.318, P=0.02). The total score of SCL-90 was positively predicted by vulnerability to harm or illness and emotional deprivation, with an explanatory variation rate of 27.7%.The number of SCL-90 positive items was positively predicted by social isolation/alienation and abandonment/instability, with an explanatory variation rate of 19.3%.Immature defense styles fully mediate the relationship between social isolation/alienation and mental health, as well as between abandonment/instability and mental health. Conclusion:Social isolation/alienation and abandonment/instability affect the mental health of patients with depression by the mediating effect of immature defense styles.
