Objective To determine the median effective target effect-site concentration (EC50) of sufentanil when intraoperative wake-up test was successful in patients undergoing scoliosis surgery.Methods Ninety ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 18-64 yr,with body mass index < 30 kg/m2,scheduled for scoliosis surgery under sevoflurane and sufentanil anesthesia,were randomly divided into Ⅰ-Ⅵ groups (n =15 each).Anesthesia was induced with sufentanil,etomidate and cisatracurium,and maintained with sevoflurane,sufentanil and cisatracurium.The patients were tracheal intubated and mechanically ventilated.Before the wake-up test,infusion of cisatracurium was stopped and the end-tidal concentration of sevoflurane was adjusted to 0.The EC50 was determined by the K(a)rber method.The target effect-site concentration of sufentanil was set at 0.19 ng/ml in group Ⅰ,0.18 ng/ml in group Ⅱ and gradually decreased in decrements of 0.01 ng/ml.The wake-up test was performed 5 min later.The EC50 and 95 % confidence interval of sufentanil were calculated by the K(a)rber method.Results EC50 of sufentanil obtained was 0.164 ng/ml and 95% confidence interval of sufentanil obtained was 0.157-0.172 ng/ml when the wake-up test was successful.Conclusion The EC50 of sufentanil is 0.164 ng/ml when the intraoperative wake-up test is successful in the patients undergoing scoliosis surgery.

Objectives To analyze a rare autosomal recessive disease, aggrecan type spondylometaphyseal dysplasia (SEMD), which was caused by ACAN gene mutations. Methods A 7 years old girl was diagnosed with short stature after excluding growth hormone deficiency, idiopathic short stature, and hypothyroidism. Combining family history and clinical features, SEMD were suspected and genetic tests were performed. Results The patient was found with homozygous mutations of c.512C > T inACAN gene, and was diagnosed with aggrecan type SEMD. Her parents were found to be heterozygous mutation carrier. Conclusions In patients with high suspection of a special type of short stature, early genetic tests should be carried out for a clear diagnosis.

Objective To explore the immuniated function of infants with bronchiolitis. Methods In vitro production of IL-18,12, 10, 4, IFN-? by peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and plasma IgE of bronchiolitis infants measured by enzyme-linked im-munosorbent assay, expression of lymphocyte activation gene - 3 (LAG - 3) mRNA from PBMC measured by semi - quantitative RT- PCR.Forteen healthy children were as normal control. Results Compared with normal control, IL - 12 (390. 94 ? 95. 88 vs 452.44?195.07) ng/L and IL-18(146.23? 55. 81 vs 246.69?121.29) ng/L activity were significantly decreased (P0.05) ;The levels of IL-4(30. 52 ? 17. 65 vs 16.20? 8.94) ng/L and IL-10 (302. 40 ? 100.04 vs 195.30? 84.01) ng/L were elevated significantly(P

Objective To detect the correlations between vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression, microvessel density ( MVD) and time intensity parameters of contrast enhanced ultrasound in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods Seventy-three patients of HCC were analyzed with time intensity curve of contrast enhanced ultrasound. VEGF and CD34 in different degree of differentiated HCC specimens were detected by immunohistochemistry. The correlations between VEGF, MVD and time intensity parameters were analyzed. Results Arrival time had no significant difference among different differentiated groups. However, the area under the curve, enhanced time and washout time had significant difference among different differentiated groups respectively ( P <0. 05). There was a positive correlation between VEGF expression and MVD in HCC. MVD was associated with enhanced time and the area under the curve ( r = - 0. 615,0. 563,respectively). The area under the curve,enhanced time and washout time of VEGF positive expression group had significant difference comparing to those of VEGF negative expression group ( P < 0. 05). Conclusions It was helpful to assess HCC differentiated degree with time intensity parameters of contrast enhanced ultrasound.
