BACKGROUND: The imaging technique of CT and MRI has lower diagnostic accuracy in analyzing lymph node location due to the nonspecific diagnostic criteria. However, this situation can be improved with Gadolinium diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (Gd-DTPA), especially the use of lymphatic targeting contrast agent. OBJECTIVE: To prepare DTPA-coupled human serum albumin (HSA) labeled with gadoliniumion, and to investigate the enhancement for the lymph node in animal experiment, in further, to explore the potential value of its application. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The randomized grouping, controlled animal experiment was performed at the laboratory of Medical Imaging Center, Nanfang Hospital from December 2008 to April 2009. MATERIALS: GdCI3 was prepared with Gd2O3 reacted with 0.1mol/L HCI for 10 minutes. Then, DTPA cyclic anhydride and HAS solution were mixed together at the ratio of 200:1 or 100:1. The product was divided into 4 equal portions, which was reacted with 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0 pH values at room temperature for 30 minutes. At last, GdCI3 was added. The complexation reaction was completed within 1 minute. The Gd-DTPA-HAS was dried and prepared for Gd-DTPA-HAS solution with concentration of 0.50 mmol Gd/L.METHODS: Six New Zealand rabbits were undergone the MRI examination, followed by subcutaneous injection of 0.2 mL with Gd 0.50 mmol/L HSA-Gd-DTPA solution. And contrast scanning was performed at minutes 30, 60 and 180 after injection. The signal intensity of popliteal lymph node was measured and the enhancement rate was obtained. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The number of combined Gd-DTPA per HSA at different reaction conditions was measured, and coupling efficiency of HSA-DTPA was calculated. The enhancement rates of lymph node, as well as dynamic changes were observed. RESULTS: ①The number and coupling efficiency of HSA-coupled of gadolinium ions were increased with the pH value of the reaction system at the same DTPA-to-HSA molar ratio. ②At the same pH value of the reaction system, the number of HSA-coupled of gadolinium ions increased with the DTPA-to-HSA molar ratios while the coupling efficiency of HSA-coupled of gadolinium ions decreased.③After subcutaneous injection, HSA-Gd-DTPA entered the lymphatic vessel, which resulted in obvious homogeneous enhancement of the lymphatic vessels and popliteal lymph nodes. CONCLUSION: The number and coupling efficiency of HSA-coupled of gadolinium ions can be increased in pH=8.0, 0.1 mol/L NaHCO_3 reaction system. HSA-Gd-DTPA is an effective contrast agent targeted for lymph node after subcutaneous administration.

Objective:To compare the efficacy of closed-loop target-controlled deep versus moderate neuromuscular blockade in gynecological laparoscopic surgery.Methods:This was a prospective study. Fifty American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification I or Ⅱ patients, aged 18-64 yr, with body mass index of 18-30 kg/m 2, scheduled for elective gynecological laparoscopic surgery in the General Hospital of Tianjin Medical University from March 2020 to March 2021, were allocated into 2 groups ( n=25 each) using a random number table method: closed-loop target-controlled moderate neuromuscular blockade group (group TOF) and closed-loop target-controlled deep neuromuscular blockade group (group PTC). Rocuronium was given by closed-loop target-controlled infusion in both groups. In group TOF, the target muscle relaxation was considered as train-of-four stimulation (TOF) of 1 or 2. In group PTC, the target muscle relaxation was considered as post-titanic count of 1 or 2. The score for operator′s satisfaction with muscle relaxation, grading, satisfaction rate, mean pneumo-peritoneum pressure, consumption of rocuronium, recovery index, recovery time to a TOF ratio 0.9 and time to extubation were recorded. The postoperative visual analogue scale score for abdominal pain and use of rescue analgesics were recorded, and the occurrence of complications such as shoulder pain, arm pain, nausea, vomiting and hypoxemia was also recorded within 48 h after surgery. Results:Compared with group TOF, the score for operator′s satisfaction with muscle relaxation, grading and satisfaction rate were significantly increased, the mean pneumo-peritoneum pressure was decreased, the total and average consumption of rocuronium was increased, the recovery time of a TOF ratio 0.9 was prolonged, and the postoperative visual analogue scale score for abdominal pain and usage rate of flurbiprofenate were decreased in group PTC ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in the recovery index, tracheal extubation time or postoperative incidence of hypoxemia, shoulder pain, arm pain and nausea and vomiting between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Compared with the closed-loop target-controlled moderate neuromuscular blockade, the closed-loop target-controlled deep neuromuscular blockade provides more satisfactory surgical conditions for gynecological laparoscopic surgery, decreases pneumoperitoneum pressure and reduces related complications, without increasing the development of postoperative adverse reactions.

Objective To investigate the psychological status of parents when premature infants discharge from Neonate Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and analyze the influencing factors. Methods A total of 100 premature infants and 100 parents who had been hospitalized in NICU of Beijing Children's Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from December 2015 to July 2016 were enrolled in the study. All the parents were investigated for their psychological status when premature infants were discharged from NICU by Symptom Checklist (SCL-90). SPSS 17.0 software was used to analyze and process the research data. Results The total score of SCL-90 was (134.60±21.77), of which the scores of 6 factors were on the high side:somatization (18.15±4.54), depression (22.10±3.72), anxiety (15.70±3.08), hostility (9.55±1.95) and terror (9.35±2.61). It showed that the score of mothers were higher than fathers. The SCL-90 score had a statistical difference in parents at different age group and with different education background (P<0.05). The differences of SCL-90 scores for parents of premature infants with different admission age, admission weight, discharge weight, and NICU time were statistically significant (P< 0.05). The results of multiple regression analysis showed that parents' gender, age and premature infants' admission age, admission weight, discharge weight and NICU time were the main influencing factors of parents' psychological status. Conclusions The psychological status of parents of premature infants when discharged from NICU is poor and affected by various factors. To construct personalized psychological adjustment strategies to improve the mental state of parents of NICU premature infants at discharge is of great significance for optimizing family nursing, improving the prognosis of premature infants, improving the compliance of parents and harmonizing the relationship between doctors and patients.
