Objective To explore the relationship between Body Mass Index (BMI), Waist-Hips-Ratio (WHR) and Blood lipids.Methods Body measurements including BMI, WHR and body fat percentage (FAT%), and blood lipid profile assessment and liver ultrasonography were conducted on 350 employees from Shanghai Waigaoqiao Free Trade Zone from January 2006 to August 2007. All subjects were classified into a group of overweight/obesity and a group of normal body weight based on their BMI. BMI, WHR, FAT%, blood lipid profile, the prevalence of fatty liver and dyslipidemia were compared between the two groups. Results WHR, FAT%, the level of TG and TC in overweight/obesity group were significantly higher than that in normal body weight group(P=0.000), but the level of HDL-C was significantly lower than that in normal body weight group (P=0.000). The prevalence of central obesity (88.70%), fatty liver (72.32%), and hypertriglyceridemia (49.7%),hypercholesterolemia (33.89%), low HDL-C (40.68%) in overweight/obesity group were significantly higher than those in normal body weight group (P=0.000). Concludes BMI, WHR were associated with blood lipids. Early identification and intervention on these people with high risk of cardiovascular diseases are possible by body measurement, which are significant for predicting and reducing the occurrence of cardiovascular diseases.

Objective To analyze the risk factors of postoperatively prolonged mechanical ventilation (PMV) after liver transplantation.Method The clinical data of 117 patients who received liver transplantation were retrospectively reviewed.According to the duration of postoperative mechanical ventilation (＜24 h or ≥24 h),the patients were divided into two groups.Commonly-used clinical and lab indexes before,during and after operations were analyzed by using single variance logistic regression analysis,and the screened indexes were analyzed by stepwise multiple variance logistic regression analysis.Result Forty-two patients (35.9％) were diagnosed with PMV after liver transplantation.The intensive care unit stay in the control group was (1.60 ± 1.17) days,shorter than in PMV proup (9.35 ± 10.61days).Sixty indexes were analyzed by univarite logistic regression,and 49 indexes showed statistically significant differences (P ＜ 0.2).Multiple variance logistic regression analysis revealed that the levels of preoperative blood glucose,model for end-stage liver disease score (MELD),the blood loss volume during the operation and the levels of glutamic oxalacetic transaminase within 24 h after the operation showed significant difference.Conclusion Preoperative hyperglycemia,high MELD score,excessive intraoperative blood loss volume and the high level of glutamic oxalacetic transaminase after the operation are independent risk factors of PMV.

Objective To investigate the risk factors of delirium in elderly patients with intertrochanteric fracture after internal fixation.Methods The data of 160 patients with intertrochanteric fractures who received internal fixation in our hospital from January 2012 to July 2014 were analyzed retrospectively.The risk factors such as age,sex,preoperative complications,preoperative cognitive function,fracture location,operation mode,operation time,anesthesia method,hospital-to-operation time and intraoperative blood loss were summarized.Results The incidence of postoperative delirium was 28.15％ in postoperative elderly patients with intertrochanteric fractures.Univariate analysis showed that delirium had correlated with preoperative cognitive impairment,preoperative preparation time,serum sodium,fentanyl,atrial fibrillation,anesthesia method,operation time and perioperative blood loss (P ＜ 0.05).The multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the independent risk factors of postoperative delirium were preoperative cognitive dysfunction,operative time more than 2 hours and preoperative preparation time more than 4 days.Conclusion The occurrence of postoperative delirium was associated with anesthesia method,cognitive deficits,preoperative preparation time and perioperative blood loss.The anesthesia method which had less effect on the whole body condition and less time of operation preparation can decrease the occurrence of postoperative delirium in a certain extent,which is conducive to improving the prognosis.

The rumor kindeys were easy to be resected and separated from perinephic tissue. Furthermore, the operative this procedure reduced bleeding and increased the killing of cancer cells so as to diminish the spreading, planting and treatment on renal neoplasm to the double treatment of ischemia and chemotherapy, thus improving the life quality and prolonging the patients' life. The embolization principle and its clinical significance were discussed in the essay.

Objective:To explore the effect of different tidal volumes (VT) on the hemodynamics of right heart in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) rats induced by oleic acid (OA).Methods:Sixty adult male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were divided into control group ( n = 20), ARDS model group ( n = 20), low VT (LVT) group ( n = 10) and high VT (HVT) group ( n = 10) by random number table. ARDS model was reproduced by injecting OA 0.15 mL/kg through a jugular vein. The control group was given the same amount of normal saline. The success of modeling was judged by the oxygenation index (PaO 2/FiO 2) 2 hours after modeling, at the same time, the lung tissues were collected, the wet/dry weight (W/D) ratio was determined, and the lung histopathological changes were measured by lung injury score. The rats in the LVT group and HVT group were given mechanical ventilation with VT of 6 mL/kg or 20 mL/kg for 4 hours, respectively at 2 hours after modeling. The rats in the control group and the ARDS model group maintained spontaneous breathing. After mechanical ventilation for 4 hours, the heart rate (HR), right ventricular systolic pressure (RVSP), the maximum rate of rising of right ventricular pressure (dp/dt max), and the blood pressure (BP) were measured. Meanwhile, arterial blood samples were collected for blood gas analysis, including pH value, arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO 2), arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PaCO 2) and PaO 2/FiO 2. Results:The rats in the ARDS model group showed symptoms of respiratory distress 1 hour after modeling, and the lung tissue samples showed obvious patchy bleeding 2 hours after modeling, while the control group showed no such changes. The PaO 2/FiO 2 in the ARDS model group was significantly lower than that in the control group [mmHg (1 mmHg = 0.133 kPa): 294.3±5.9 vs. 459.0±4.4, P < 0.01], and the lung W/D ratio and lung injury score were significantly higher (lung W/D ratio: 8.24±0.25 vs. 4.48±0.13, lung injury score: 0.60±0.03 vs. 0.12±0.02, both P < 0.01). It indicated that ARDS model was successfully reproduced. The arterial blood gas analysis and hemodynamic parameters of the ARDS model group were significantly worse than those of the control group. After 4-hour mechanical ventilation, the blood gas parameters of the LVT group were better than those of the ARDS model group and the HVT group [pH value: 7.36±0.02 vs. 7.24±0.02, 7.13±0.01; PaO 2 (mmHg): 92.4±2.1 vs. 61.8±2.3, 76.6±2.2; PaCO 2 (mmHg): 49.6±1.7 vs. 61.8±1.8, 33.6±1.3; PaO 2/FiO 2 (mmHg): 440.0±10.2 vs. 274.3±21.4, 364.7±10.5; all P < 0.05]. HR, BP and dp/dt max in the LVT group were significantly higher than those in the ARDS model group and the HVT group [HR (bpm): 346.9±5.4 vs. 302.3±10.1, 265.5±12.2; BP (mmHg): 125.4±2.2 vs. 110.0±2.5, 89.2±2.8; dp/dt max (mmHg/s): 1 393.3±30.3 vs. 1 236.4±20.5, 896.1±19.5; all P < 0.05], and RVSP was significantly lower than that in the ARDS model group and the HVT group (mmHg: 31.3±0.4 vs. 34.0±1.0, 38.8±0.9, both P < 0.05). Conclusion:Mechanical ventilation with low VT can improve the hemodynamic parameters of the right ventricle and protect the function of the right heart in ARDS rats.

Objective To investigate the correlation between posterior neck pain and lumbar epidural pressure (LEP)during percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy (PELD).Methods A prospective study was performed on 86 patients undergoing PELD,46 males,40 females,aged 1 9-71 years,with ASA physical status of Ⅰ or Ⅱ.Each patient received lumbar epidural anesthesia.Lum-bar epidural pressure (LEP)was monitored continuously through a lumbar epidural catheter which was connected to a pressure transducer.LEP before the operation (LEPbase ),LEP at the time of pos-terior neck pain (LEPpain )and maximal LEP (LEPmax )were recorded.Results Thirty patients (34.9%)complained of posterior neck pain during the procedure.The lowest LEPmax was 31.0 mm Hg,and the highest LEPmax was 77.0 mm Hg.The LEPmax in patients with neck pain [(60.6± 8.8)mm Hg]was significantly higher than LEPmax in patients without neck pain [(50.7 ± 9.5 ) mm Hg](P <0.01 ).Patients with higher LEPmax had higher probabilities of having posterior neck pain (P <0.01).Conclusion Patients with higher LEPmax had higher probabilities of having posterior neck pain.

Objective To explore the expression of transient receptor potential channel 6(TRPC6)in human breast cancer cells, and to clarify the correlation of TRPC6 with the invasion potential of breast cancer cells. Methods The human breast cancer cell strains MCF-7 (hypo-invasion group)and MDA-MB-231 (hyper-invasion group)were cultured.The expressions of TRPC6 mRNA and protein in in two groups were detected by RT-PCR and Western blotting methods.Then the MDA-MB-231 cells were divided into control group and SKF96365 group, the effects of SKF96365 on the invasion ability of MDA-MB-231 cells invitro were explored by wound healing assay and Transwell experiment.Results The results of Western blotting and RT-PCR showed that the expression levels of TRPC6 mRNA and protein in MDA-MB-231 cells were higher than that in MCF-7 cells(P<0.05).The wound healing assay showed the numbers of migrating cells in 5,25 and 40μmol·L-1 SKF96365 groups (76.24±7.54, 45.33±4.50,25.12±1.57)were lower than those in control group (130.48±9.55)(P<0.05).The Transwell experiment results indicated that the invasiveness of MDA-MB-231 cells were inhibited significantly by SKF96365 compared with control group (P<0.05).Conclusion The invasion ability of human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells is promoted by upregulating the TRPC6 expression, which indicates that the TRPC6 may play role in the metastasis of human breast cancer.

Objective To investigate the effect of hydrochloric acid dyclonine mucilage combined with painless catheter on reducing the reaction of urethral catheterization in patients recovering from general anesthesia. Methods Sixty male adults, scheduled for surgery under general anesthesia, were randomly divided into 2 groups (the research group and the control group)with 30 patients in each group. All patients received urethral catheterization with painless catheter after anesthetic induction,and were injected with hydrochloric acid dyclonine mucilage 10 mL(research group) or normal saline 10 mL (control group). The reaction of urethral catheterization was recorded. Results The incidence of CRBD was significantly lower in research group(13.33%) than in control group(66.67%)(P<0.05),and the incidence of pain was also significantly lower in research group(10%) than in control group (56.67%)(P<0.05). Conclusion The application of hydrochloric acid dyclonine mucilage combined with painless catheter can effectively alleviate the reac-tion of urethral catheterization in patients recovering from general anesthesia.

Objective: This study aims to explore the relationships of family functioning, general well-being, and exercise with psychological distress.Furthermore, we investigated the special roles of general well-being and exercise on the association between family functioningand psychological distress. Methods: Of 769 end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients participated in the cross-sectional study which consisted of the 12-item GeneralHealth Questionnaire (GHQ-12), the Family APGAR Scales, and the General Well-Being Schedule. The collected data were analyzedusing multiple linear regression analysis and path analysis. Results: The prevalence of psychological distress was 72.3%. Family functioning, general well-being and exercise were associated factorsof psychological distress (p<0.05). The indirect effect of family functioning on psychological distress was partially mediated by generalwell-being (Effect=-0.08, 95% CI=-0.11, -0.04). In addition, the effect of family functioning on general well-being was moderated byexercise (Index=-0.092, SE=0.033, 95% CI=-0.159, -0.029). Conclusion The prevalence of psychological distress among ESRD patients was high. Family functioning, general well-being and exercisewere associated with psychological distress. Family functioning could affect psychological distress partially by affecting general wellbeing.Furthermore, exercise had a significant moderating effect on the relationship between family functioning and general well-being.Psychiatry Investig 2020;17(4):356-365
