Objective To observe the effect of epidural injection with different dose of butorphanol on the rats' neurological function.Methods A PE-530 catheter was inserted into the epidural space of all the SpragueDawley rats (male, weighting 180 ~210 g) at L1-2 level.After three days, a total of 32 rats without any motor dysfunction were randomly divided into 4 groups as follows saline(NS) group (group C, n= 8 )and butorphanol injection (B) group( B1∶ n=8;B2∶ n=8;B3∶ n=8).Rats in group C were epidurally injected NS 30 μl each ,and rats in group B1, B2 and B3 were respectively epidurally injected Butorphanol 60 μg/30μl, 120 μg/30 μl,240 μg/30 μl (all diluted with NS) ,and 1 time per day for5 days.The neurological function of rats was recorded before injection (T0) and 6h after injection on day 1 ~4(T1 ~T 4) and 6h,24h and 72h after injection on day 5 (T5 ~T7) by BBB (BASSO,BEATTIE and BRESNAHAN ) Score and the inclined plane test .Results Compared with group C ,the BBB score and the inclined plane test of group B1 showed no significant difference throughout the experimental period(P> 0.05 ).There was also no significant difference at T0 ~ T3 of group B2 and group B3 compared with group C (P > 0.05 ), while at T4, the BBB score ( ( 18.50 ± 2.00 ) points, ( 16.38 ± 2.33 ) points) and the inclined plane test( (58.75 ± 5.17 )°, (59.38 ± 3.20) ° ) of the two groups were both obviously decreased when compared with group C( (21.00 ±0.00) points, (65.00 ±3.78)°, P<0.05) ,and the same significant differences appeared at T5,T6 and T7 (P < 0.05 ).Conclusion Repeated epidural injection of butorphanol 60 μg have no effect on neurological function of rats,while repeated epidural injection of butorphanol 120 μg and 240 μg could impaire the neurological function.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of patient-controlled epidural analgesia(PCEA) with opioids on serous myelin basic protein(MBP) and somatosensory evoked potential(SEP) of lower limbs in puerperants.MethodsA total of 120 puerperants,after receiving cesarean section,were divided into four groups by random number table method as group B,BR,MR and R randomly,and each group included 30 cases.After surgery,each case received PCEA:group B received 0.008% butrophanol;group BR received 0.008% butrophanol + 0.2% ropivacaine;group MR received 0.004% morphine +0.2% ropivacaine and group R received 0.2% ropivacaine only.VAS score,OAA/S score,adverse effect occurrence,concentration changes of serous MBP,SEP of both lower limbs and neurological function were observed at 2h(T1 ),4h(T2),8 h(T3),12h(T4),24 h(T5) and 48h (T6) after surgery.ResultsVASscoresofgroupBR(1.64±0.38,1.86±0.62,1.93±0.67) and MR( 1.74 ±0.39,1.91±0.58,1.98 ±0.63) at T3,T4,T5 were lower than those of group B(4.6 ±0.5,4.6 ±0.3,4.7 ±0.3)and R(2.64 ±0.41,2.83 ±0.91,3.37 ±0.87) (P<0.05).There was no significance in four groups in OAA/S score at each point (P > 0.05 ).Incidence of nausea ( 6 cases),vomiting ( 2 cases) and abdominal distention ( 5cases) of group M was higher than that of other three groups(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in concentrations of serous MBP,SEP and neurological function in all four groups between preoperative time and 48h after operation(P>0.05).ConclusionLower-dose and lower- concentration opioids used for PCEA have no influence on serum MBP and SEP.

Objective To observe the therapeutic efficacy of extended therapy with interferon and a nucleoside analogue for treating patients with HBeAg?positive chronic hepatitis B( CHB)?Methods Sixty cases patients diagnosed with CHB in You′an Hospital of Beijing Affiliated to Capital Medical University from March 2012 to May 2015 were retrospectively analyzed?They were divided into group A with 29 cases and group B with 31 cases according to different treatment methods?Group A were treated with pegylated interferonα?2a( Peg?IFNα?2a) combined with adefovir dipivoxil for 96 weeks,group B were treated with Peg?IFN α?2a combined with adefovir and lamivudine for 96 weeks?The patients'recovery rate of ALT,hepatitis B virus( HBV) DNA response rate and HBeAg and HBsAg seroconversion rate and conversion rate of 12,24,48,96 weeks in the treatment were observed?Results There were no significant differences in recovery rate of ALT,hepatitis B virus( HBV) DNA response rate,HBeAg seroconversion rate and HBsAg seroconversion rate between the two groups at differenct time points( P>0?05)?HBeAg seroconversion rates in group A were 34?5% at 48 weeks,62?1% at 96 weeks, and the difference was significant( P=0?036)?HBeAg seroconversion rates in group B were 35?5% at 48 weeks, 61?3% at 96 weeks,and the difference was significant ( P=0?042)?Conclusion The treatment of peginterferonα?2a in combination with adefovir dipivoxil and lamivudine is not more efficacious than peginterferon α?2a in combination with adefovir dipivoxil?The extended treatment of Peg? IFNα?2a plus a nucleoside analogue can achieve high rates of HBeAg seroconversion in patients with HBeAg?positive CHB.
