Objective The aim of this study was to investigate different dosages and effects of dexmedetomidine for prevention of postanesthetic shivering. Methods One-hundred twenty patients scheduled for laparoscopic surgery were randomly allocated in four groups: before the operation, slowly injected 0.9% normal saline (group S, dexmedetomidine 0.5 μg/kg (group D0.5), dexmedetomidine 0.75 μg/kg (group D0.75), dexmedetomidine 1.0 μg/kg(group D1.0). HR and rectal temperature[C2] were continually monitered during and after operation, time to extubation was measured. Grades of shivering were recorded. Pain evaluation was assessed by a visual analogue scale, sedation was evaluated by Modified Observer′s Assessment of Alertness/Sedation scale. Results The patients in group S showed a significantly higher HR and postoperative incidence of shivering than those in group D0.75 and group D1.0, (P < 0.05). but the extubation time in groupd D0.75 and group D1.0 were longer than patients in group S (P<0.05). Conclusion Slowly injected dexmedetomidine 0.75 μg/kg or 1.0 μg/kg can prevent postanesthetic shivering in laparoscopic surgery effectively.

Objective To observe the dynamic changes of heme oxygenase 1,NAD(P)H:quinine oxidoreductase 1 and Nuclear factor-E2-related factor 2 in the lung tissue of acute H2S-intoxicated rats and intervention effects of ulinastratin(UTI).Methods A total of 96 SD rats of clean grade were divided randomly(random number)into four groups:normal control group(NS group,n =8),UTI control group(UTI group,n =8),H2S-intoxicated model group(H2S group,n =40,rats were exposed to H2S(200 × 10-6)for 1 h to establish the H2S-intoxicated model)and UTI treatment group(H2S +UTI group,n =40,rats were intraperitoneal injected with the dose of UTI 105 U/kg).H2S group and H2S + UTI group were sacrificed 2,6,12,24 and 48 h after modeling.The activity and mRNA expression of HO-1 and NQO-1 in the lung tissue were measured by ELISA and RT-PCR methods,and the expression of Nrf2 mRNA and protein in the lung tissue was detected by RT-PCR and Western Blot methods.Pathological changes of lung tissue were observed by lightmicroscope and the lung injury score was used to evaluate inhalation injury.Results The pulmonary HO-1 activity and mRNA expression in rats of H2S group at 2,6,12 h(P ＜ 0.01)after intoxication were markedly increased than that in NS group:In comparison with H2S group,the pulmonary HO-1 activity and mRNA expression increased at 6,12,24,48 h(P ＜0.01).The pulmonary NQO-1 activity and mRNA expression in rats of H2S group at 2,6,12,24 h(P＜ 0.01)after intoxication were markedly increased than that in NS group; In comparison with H2S group,the pulmonary NQO-1 activity and mRNA expression increased at 6,12,24,48 h(P ＜ 0.01).The pulmonary Nrf2 mRNA and protein expression in rats of H2S group at 2,6,12 h(P ＜0.01 or P ＜0.05)after modeling were markedly increased than that in NS group and reached peak 2 hour after modeling; In comparison with H2S group,the pulmonary Nrf2 mRNA and protein expression increased at 6,12,24,48 h(P ＜0.01).At 24 h after modeling,the degree of lung damage were also decreased in H2S group compared with H2S + UTI group in the lightmicroscope.Histopathological examination showed that the degree of lung injury in H2S + UTI group was less severe than that in H2S group especially in the 12,24 and 48 h (P ＜0.01).Conclusions HO-1,NQO-1 and Nrf2 are involved in the pathogenesis of acute lung injury induced by H2S-intoxicated in rats.UTI may improve the imbalance in redox and activate HO-1,NQO-1 and Nrf2 can reduce lung injury and protect the lung injury induced by H2S in rats.

Objective To meta-analyze the effect of mirror therapy on the lower limb motor function and ac-tivities of daily living of stroke survivors so as to evaluate its clinical efficacy. Methods Medline, PubMed, OT seeker, the Cochrane library, the Wanfang database, the VIP database and the CNKI were searched for reports of randomized and controlled trials (RCTs) of the effect of mirror therapy on the lower limb motor function and activities of daily living of stroke survivors published between December 2008 and December 2018. Strict inclusion and exclu-sion criteria were applied, and the quality of the documents was comprehensively assessed according to version 5.1.0 of the Cochrane manual. The results were analyzed using version 5.2 of the RevMan software suite. Results Four-teen trials were included. Meta-analysis showed that mirror therapy had been shown to improve the patients'scores of Fugl-Meyer assessment ( FMA ), functional ambulance category ( FAC ) and modified Barthel index ( MBI ). Conclusion Mirror therapy can improve the motor function of the affected lower extremities of stroke survivors and their ability in the activities of daily living.

Objective: To explore the clinical and pathological features and mutational types and their relations with WT1 mutation-associated nephropathy (WT1MAN). Methods: The clinical and pathological data and the results of WT1 mutation analysis of the cases from Nanfang Hospital of Southern Medical University, Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital and The First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University whom we recruited recently and reported during the last ten years were analyzed. Results: Totally, 20 cases (6 males and 14 females), included 5 newly diagnosed cases, were recruited. (1) Ten children were diagnosed with Denys-Drash syndrome (DDS): The median onset age of proteinuria was 1 year and 7 months. Diffuse mesangial sclerosis (DMS) were revealed in 3 cases, minimal lesions (MCD) in 4 cases, and focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) in 1 case; renal pathology was not available in the other 2 cases. Glomerular basement membrane (GBM) thickening was observed in 2 cases. Calcineurin inhibitors (CNIs) were administered in 5 cases, complete remission of proteinuria was observed in 3 cases, partial remission in the other 2 cases. Genetic analysis revealed that six cases had WT1 missense mutation, 3 had nonsense mutation, and 1 had frameshift mutation. (2) Two cases were diagnosed with Frasier syndrome (FS): proteinuria was observed at 1 year and 1 month of age and 1 year and 9 months of age, respectively. FSGS with GBM layering were observed in both cases. They progressed to ESRD at 1 year and 6 months of age and 6 years and 6 months of age, respectively. CNI was tried in 1 case with partial proteinuria remission. Both patients were detected to have WT1 splice mutation. (3) Isolated nephropathy (IN) was observed in 8 cases: three had splice mutation, 5 had missense mutation. Of the 3 patients with splice mutation, one was found to have nephropathy and renal failure at the age of 5 months. The other two cases (1 was FSGS and another MCD), both had GBM layering. CNIs were tried on both of them, one got partial remission with normal renal function at the age of fourteen years, the other one had no response and entered ESRD at the age of 6 years and 9 months. Of the 5 cases with missense mutation, 3 had DMS, 2 of them entered ESRD within 6 months of age, another case had DMS entered ESRD at 9 years of age. One case with FSGS, was treated with CNIs and got complete remission. Conclusions Slow progression (7/10) nephropathy was observed in DDS patients. Missense mutation (11/20) was the most common type of WT1 variants, followed by splice mutation (5/20) in this group of patients. Early onset nephropathy (4/5), rapid progression (4/5) and GBM layering (4/4) wereobserved in patients with splice mutation. CNI was effective in reducing or even eliminating proteinuria in WT1 MAN patients (8/9).

Spasticity is one of common manifestations of upper motor neuron injury, and often evaluated with semi-quantitative scales. Ultrasound elastography (UE) can provide elastic information for muscle tissue, and can be used for the evaluation of muscle tension after cerebral palsy and stroke, as well as the efficacy of treatment. It correlates well with clinical spasm rating scales. However, UE may also be used for assessment of spasticity after spinal cord injury and multiple sclerosis, etc.
