Objective To investigate the effects of propofol on the whole-cell excitatory postsynaptic currents (EPSC) and spontaneous excitatory postsynaptic current (sEPSC) in hippocampal CAl neurons.Methods Wistar rats (13-19 days old) weighing 40-60 g were decapitated and the hippocampi were immediately removed and placed in 0-4℃ artificial CSF aerated with 95% O2 and 5% CO2 . The hippocampi were sliced (400 ?m thick) . EPSCs were recorded in hippocampal CA1 neurons by stimulating the Schaffer collateral / commissural pathway. The 50 slices were divided into 5 groups (n = 10 each): group Ⅰ intralipid-1; group Ⅱ propofol-1; group Ⅲ SR95531 + propofol; group Ⅳ intralipid-2 and group Ⅴ propofol-2. In group Ⅰ, Ⅱ and Ⅲ after EPSCs were recorded for 10 min, 10% intralipid 90 ?l, 1% propofol 90 ?l (final concentration was 100 ?mol?L-1 and SR95531 10 ?mol?L-1 + propofol 100 ?mol?L-1 were added to the perfusate and again EPSCs were recorded for 40min. The changes in amplitude of EPSC were analyzed. In group Ⅳ and Ⅴ after the cell membrane was perforated and being stabilized for 10-15 min 10% intralipid 90 ?l and 1 % propofol (100 ?mol?L-1) was added to the perfusate and sEPSCs were recorded without stimulation. The holding potential was - 70 mV. Results Intralipid didn't affect EPSC but propfol 100 ?mol?L-1 reduced EPSC to 47.7% of the baseline value. SR95531 could reverse the effect of propofol on EPSCs. The frequency, amplitude and decay time of sEPSC in group propofol-2 were reduced to 31. 9% , 70. 9% and 50. 7% of those in group Ⅳ (intralipid-2) (P

Objective To investigate the clinical application of retrograde autologous priming (RAP)in congenital heart disease surgery by cardiopulmonary bypass.Methods Twenty congenital heart disease patients undergoing heart operation by cardiopulmonary bypass were randomly divided into two groups,group control (n=10)and group RAP (n=10).Group control was received the regular priming method,whereas group RAP with RAP technique.The hematologic parameters were measured before CPB,15 minutes following CPB,1 h and 24 h after CPB.The priming volume, transfusion requirements,ventilator time and ICU stay time were recorded.Results All patients were healed completely without death and transfusing complications.The priming volume in group RAP was significantly lower than that in group control (P<0.01).The levels of hemoglobin and hemato-crit in group RAP at 15 min following CPB and 1 h after CPB were significantly higher compared to group control (P<0.05).Lactate in group RAP at 1 h and 24 h after CPB were significantly lower than those in group control (P<0.05).The transfusion requirements in group RAP were significantly decreased than group control (P<0.05).Conclusion In congenital heart disease surgery by cardiop-ulmonary bypass,RAP technique can effectively decrease priming volume,hemodilution and transfu-sion requirements,improve tissue perfusion and pulmonary function.

Objective To study the prognosis of infants with bronchiolitis by testing urine leukotriene E4 (LTE4) level and investigating atopy's influences. Methods Urine LTE4 was tested in 38 eases with mild bronchiolitis (47 in acute stage, 17 in convalescent stage), 9 severe bronchiolitis cases, 15 atopic cases, 25 control cases. Peripheral blood was used to determine eosinophils count (EC) in acute bronchiolitis cases. Results (1) The level of urine LTE4 is obviously higher in cases of acute group (62.11 ± 12.23 pmol/L) than that of control group (22.19±1.50 pmol/L) , and the convalescent group (34.86 ±5.75 pmol/L) (F = 132.42, P < 0.01) ;Urine LTE4 level of convalescent group is higher than that of the control group (P < 0.01). (2) Urine LTE4 level is significantly higher in severe group (98.04 ± 8.04 pmol/L) than that of mild group (59.16 ± 12.25 pmol/L) (t = 9.92, P < 0.01). (3) Urine LTE4 level of atopy positive (88.75 ± 10.45 pmol/L) infants with bronchiolitis is significantly higher than atopy negative infants (55.28 ± 11.44 pmol/L)(t = 8.63, P < 0.01). (4) There is no significant correlation between the levels of urine LTE4 and EC for acute bronchiolitis. Condusions The level of urine LTE4 in acute bronehiolitis patients increases and remains high in convalescent stage;Higher urine LTE4 level in severe bronchiolitis cases indicates that urine LTE4 level is related to the severity of the disease;cysteinylleukotrenes is an important mediator of inflammation that may influence the prognosis of atopy positive infants with bronchiolitis;EC is not a good index to present the airway inflammation of infants with bronehiolitis.

Objective To investigate the significance of tumor markers CEA and CA19-9 in predicting the clinicopathologic characteristics and prognosis of primary duodenal carcinoma.Methods A retrospective analysis of 110 cases with primary duodenal carcinoma treated in our hospital from January 1999 to December 2016 was conducted.ROC analysis,univariate and multivariate analysiswere performed to investigate the relationship between CEA,CA19-9 and the clinicopathologic characteristics of primary duodenal carcinoma.Kaplain-Meier method was used to analyze the relationship between CEA and CA19-9 and the prognosis of primary duodenal carcinoma.Results CEA level was of value for predicting the depth of infiltration,lymphatic involvement,metastasis and TNM stage.The receiver operating characteristic was 0.629,0.672,0.749,0.692 respectively.Univariate analysis showed serum CA19-9 lever was related to the depth of infiltration and serum CEA lever were related to tumor differentiation,lymphatic invasion,metastasis and TNM stage.Logistic analysis showed that CEA value was only associated with metastasis (OR:9.853,P ＜ 0.01).Patients with elevated serum CEA level had a significant worse prognosis than patients with normal serum CEA level (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Serum CEA level was closely associated with the clinicopathologic characteristics and prognosis of primary duodenal carcinoma.

Accurate segmentation of oral surgery-related tissues from cone beam computed tomography(CBCT)images can significantly accelerate treatment planning and improve surgical accuracy.In this paper,we propose a fully automated tissue segmentation system for dental implant surgery.Specifically,we propose an image preprocessing method based on data distribution histograms,which can adaptively process CBCT images with different parameters.Based on this,we use the bone segmentation network to obtain the segmentation results of alveolar bone,teeth,and maxillary sinus.We use the tooth and mandibular regions as the ROI regions of tooth segmentation and mandibular nerve tube segmentation to achieve the corresponding tasks.The tooth segmentation results can obtain the order information of the dentition.The corresponding experimental results show that our method can achieve higher segmentation accuracy and efficiency compared to existing methods.Its average Dice scores on the tooth,alveolar bone,maxillary sinus,and mandibular canal segmentation tasks were 96.5%,95.4%,93.6%,and 94.8%,respectively.These results demonstrate that it can accelerate the development of digital dentistry.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of Dog-Bone double button in the treatment of acute acromioclavicular dislocation under shoulder arthroscopy.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted of the 20 patients with acute acromioclavicular dislocation who had been treated at Department of Sports Medicine, Northern Jiangsu People's Hospital of Jiangsu Province from November 2018 to December 2020 by Dog-Bone double button under shoulder arthroscopy. They were 11 males and 9 females, aged from 31 to 63 years. Recorded were their visual analogue scale (VAS), Constant-Murley shoulder function score and range of shoulder anteflexion at preoperation and the last follow-up, as well as complications and the X-ray parameters at one month postoperation and the last follow-up [including coracoclavicular distance (CCD), distance between the upper and lower Dog-Bone titanium plates (DDD), angle between the coracoid process tunnel and the tangent line of the superior clavicle (CTCA), and widths of the clavicle tunnel and the coracoid process tunnel].Results:The 20 patients were followed up for 6 to 12 months (average, 10.5 months). Their preoperative VAS score, Constant score, and range of shoulder anteflexion were 3.0 (3.0, 4.0), 57.0 (54.3, 61.5) and 130° (110°, 140°), which were significantly improved to 0 (0, 0.8), 90.0 (86.5, 91.0) and 170° (170°, 180°) at the last follow-up ( P<0.05). Their CCD, DDD, CTCA, and widths of the clavicle tunnel and the coracoid process at one month postoperation were (5.0±1.0) mm, (32.4±3.5) mm, 91.7° (88.5°, 104.9°), 3.0 (3.0, 3.0) mm and 3.0 (3.0, 3.0) mm, which were significantly improved to (6.3±1.3) mm, (32.8±3.7) mm, 84.8° (81.8°, 92.0°), 3.5 (3.4, 3.6) mm and 3.2 (3.1, 3.3) mm with the exception of DDD at one month postoperation ( P<0.05). The last follow-up observed postoperative reduction loss in only one patient. Conclusion:For acute acromioclavicular joint dislocation, the Dog-Bone fixation technique under shoulder arthroscopy can lead to fine surgical efficacy and patient satisfaction, because it has advantages of limited trauma, good functional recovery of the shoulder, and effective prevention of reduction loss.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy and prognostic factors for combined caudate lobectomy radical resection plus broad lymph node dissection in patients of hilar cholangiocarcinoma.Methods The clinical data and follow-up results of patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma surgically treated from Feb 2008 to Feb 2017 were retrospectively analyzed.Result The R0 resection rate[72.2％ (13/18) vs 43.9％ (18/41)],operation time [(433 ± 136) min vs (302 ± 122) min],intraoperative blood loss [(1 789 ± 1 091) ml vs (776 ± 755) ml] and postoperative complication rate [66.7％ (12/18) vs 36.6％ (15/41)]were significantly higher in the hepatic lobe combined with caudate lobe resection group than that without caudate lobe resection group (P ＜ 0.05).The median survival time of patients with enlarged lymph node dissection was longer than that of patients with regional lymph node dissection (33 months vs 13 months,P ＜0.05).Univariate and multivariate analysis showed that the preoperative serum CA199 level ＞ 1 000 U/ml,the degree of microscopic margin and tumor TNM stage were significantly correlated with the prognosis of the patients (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Combined with caudate lobe resection can improve R0 resection rate.Targeted lymph node dissection helps prolong survival.The degree of microscopic margin,preoperative CA199 and TNM staging are independent risk factors for the prognosis of patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma.

Objective This study aims to evaluate the influence of hot chemical etching on short- and long-term shear bond strength (SBS) of zirconia to resin. Methods Eighty zirconia ceramic slices were obtained and randomly divided into five groups based on the surface treatment to be applied-group A: H2SO4/(NH4)2SO4 hot solution etching + application of Clearfil; group B: HF/HNO3 hot solution etching + application of Clearfil; group C: H2SO4/HF/HNO3 hot solution etching + Clearfil; group D: alumina sandblasting + application of Clearfil; group E: tribochemical silica coating + application of silane coupling agent. Eighty composite cylinders were bonded to pretreated ceramic slices using a bis-GMA-based resin cement. Specimens in each group were divided into two fractions: the first half received 24 h water storage, and the second half re-ceived 40 d water storage. Then, SBS tests were conducted. Morphological analysis of sandblasted alumina and hot chemical-etched zirconia surfaces were performed by scanning electron microscopy(SEM). Results Group E displayed the highest SBS before artificial aging, and no statistical difference was found among the other groups. After 40 d water storage, groups A, B, and E showed significantly higher SBS than groups C and D. SBS increased significantly after artificial aging in groups A and B. No significant variations were found before and after artificial aging in the other groups. Conclusion The experi-mental hot chemical etching solution provides enhanced bonding for zirconia than sandblasting, and the bond strengths remain stable after artificial aging.
