ObjectiveTo determine the bispectral index and dose of propofol at which 50 % of patients fall into unconsciousness during induction (BIS50 and EDs0 ). MethodsThirty unpremedicated ASA Ⅰ-Ⅱ patients scheduled for elective surgery were included in this study. The patients did not take any sedatives or hypnotics and had no psychiatric disease. Loss of consciousness and changes in BIS during induction with propofol were studied by sequential experimental method. The loss of responses to verbal command and eyelash stimulation was used as an induction of unconsciousness. The data obtained were analyzed by linear regression and calculated to determine BIS50 and ED50 using weighted averaging method. ResultsThe BIS50 and ED50 for propofol were 79.17 and 1.0192 ng/kg with the 95% confidence intervals of 72.08-88.55 and 0.94-1.148 mg/kg respectively. Conclusions The sequential experimental method for determination of ED50 is simple, efficient and reliable and also suitable for determination of BIS50.

Objective To examine the distribution and antibiotic resistance of the Acinetobacter baumannii strains isolated from Department of Neurology.Methods A retrospective review was conducted for the 269 strains of A.baumannii isolated during the period from January 2009 to March 2014.VITEK 2 Compact system was used for bacteria identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing.The data were analyzed with WHONET 5.6 software and compared by Chi-square test.Results The prevalence of A.baumannii was higher in Department of Neurology than in Department of Neurosurgery or Neurology ICU. Majority (97.4%)of the A.baumannii strains were isolated from sputum.About 54.3% of the A.baumannii isolates were resistant to imipenem.Relatively lower percentage of the A.baumannii isolates were resistant to amikacin (20.7%),but as high as 54.3% and 55.0% of the strains were resistant to imipenem and piperacillin-tazobactam.More imipenem-non-resistant A.baumannii strains (89.4%)were resistant to trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole than imipenem-resistant A.baumannii (72.6%)(P < 0.05). However,to the other antimicrobial agents tested,imipenem-resistant A.baumannii strains showed significantly higher resistance rate than imipenem-non-resistant A.baumannii strains (P< 0.05).Conclusions The prevalence of A.baumannii and imipenem-resistant A.baumannii is high in Department of Neurology.Further monitoring of antibiotic resistance and rational use of antimicrobial agents are helpful to effectively control the epidemic of multidrug-resistant A.baumannii.

Mitochondrial quality control is the important mecha-nism that regulates the morphology,quantity and quality of mito-chondrial in cell to maintain cellular homeostasis and thus,cell survival and health.It has been revealed that members of Bcl-2 family are linked to mitochondrial function and integrity.Bcl-2 family proteins are the key regulators of mitochondrial quality control,participating in the signaling pathways regulating the
crosstalk between mitophagy and apoptosis,as well as mitochon-drial fission and fusion.This paper mainly reviews their impact on mitochondrial quality and the major signaling pathways regula-ted by Bcl-2 family proteins.

Objective:To analyze the clinical manifestations and esophageal motility characteristics of patients with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and extra-esophageal symptoms.Methods:From January 1 to October 30, 2018, at PLA Rocket Force Characteristic Medical Center, 180 hospitalized patients diagnosed with GERD and extra-esophageal symptoms were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into laryngopharyngeal symptom group (65 cases), airway symptom group (58 cases) and mixed symptom group (57 cases). General data, clinical symptoms, gastroscopic manitestations, the results of high-resolution esophageal manometry and 24-hour multichannel intraluminal impedance and pH monitoring of each group were analyzed and compared. Chi-square test and one-way analysis of variance were used for statistical analysis.Results:The patients aged <40, 40 to 60 and >60 years accounted for 12.8% (23/180), 53.3% (96/180) and 33.9% (61/180), respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( χ2=12.030, P=0.017). There were 18.9%(34/180) of patients without typical reflux symptoms. There were statistically significant differences in the incidence of ectopic esophagogastric mucosa or Barrett esophagus under gastroscopy between laryngopharyngeal symptom group, airway symptom group and mixed symptom group (21.5%, 14/65; 5.2%, 3/58 and 8.8%, 5/57, respectively) ( χ2=8.578, P=0.014). There were no statistically significant differences in the lower esophageal sphincter pressure (LESP), upper esophageal sphincter pressure or distal contractile integral between laryngopharyngeal symptom group, airway symptom group and mixed symptom group ((8.57±0.76), (8.87±0.79), and (10.51±0.97) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa); (44.75±2.86), (42.81±4.06), and (39.14±3.20) mmHg; (506.13±64.30), (432.59±78.10), and (682.99±82.28) mmHg·s·cm)(all P>0.05). The DeMeester score of laryngopharyngeal symptom group , mixed symptom group and airway symptom group was (14.33±2.09), (21.94±5.30) and (30.47±5.85) points, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( F=3.226, P=0.043). The results of multi-channel impedance monitoring showed that acid reflux and weak acid reflux were the main reflux in the patients, which accounted for 55.5% (76/137) and 34.3% (47/137), respectively. Among 87.6% (120/137) of the patients, reflux mainly occurred in the upright position while 12.4% (17/137) of the patients had reflux in the supine position. Conclusions:The extra-esophageal symptoms of GERD is associated with age. Ectopic esophagogastric mucosa or Barrett esophagus are more common in GERD patients with laryngopharyngeal symptoms. There are more acid exposure and pathologic acid reflux in GERD mainly with airway symptoms. Weak acid reflux at upright position plays an important role in the reflux mechanism of GERD with extra-esophageal symptoms.
