Objective To compare the influences of sulfentanyl or fentanyl combined with midazolam on respiratory function in slow induction of anesthesia.Methods Forty ASA Ⅰ-Ⅱ patients were divided into two groups.Anesthesia was induced with midazolam 0.03mg/kg in both groups,and fentanyl 2?g/kg(i.v.)was given in fentanyl group or sulfentanyl 0.2?g/kg(i.v.)in sulfentanyl group.Five minutes later,2ml of 1% decicaine was administered by cricothyroid membrane puncture to facilitate the intubation.Respiratory indexes(respiratory frequency,VT,MVV,PETCO2,SPO2),circulatory indexes(MAP,HR)and sedation level were measured before and 1,2,3,4,5 minute(s)after injection of drugs,at cricothyroid membrane puncture,and pre-and post-intubation.Results Patients showed respiratory depression(respiratory frequency was reduced)in both groups 2 minutes after injection of drugs.However,respiratory frequency was decreased more markedly in fentanyl group than that in sulfentanyl group.Ten out of 20 patients were obliged to receive breathing intervention in fentanyl group,but two in sulfentanyl group.Conclusion In combination with midazolam,sedative effect of sulfentanyl is stronger than that of fentanyl in equivalent analgesic dose,but with less respiratory depression.Sulfentanyl may be more suitable for slow induction of anesthesia.

Objective To investigate the analgesic effect and safety of intravenous flurbiprofen axetil combind with fentanyl and propofol on coloscopy.Methods Ninety patients undergone coloscopy were randomly assigned into three groups according to different analgesics received(30 in each,groupⅠ: fentanyl 1?g/kg;groupⅡ flurbiprofen axetil combined with fentany 0.5?g/kg;group Ⅲ: fentany 0.5?g/kg).Patients in group Ⅱ received intravenous flurbiprofen axetil 1mg/kg 10min before examination.All patients were given intravenous midazolam 0.02mg/kg 2mins before examination,however patients in group Ⅰ received intravenous fentanyl 1?g/kg followed by intravenous propofol 0.5-1mg/kg,whereas patients in group Ⅱ and Ⅲ received intravenous fentanyl 0.5?g/kg followed by equal dosage of propofol.Propofol was administrated according to patients' reaction during examination.After the examination all patients were transferred to recovery room.BP,HR and SpO2 were measured before and after drug administration,when the coloscope reached the splenic flexure of the colon and after the examination.Dosage of propofol and fentanyl,duration of coloscopy,side effects and patients' memory of pain during examination were recorded.Results Propofol dosages of the three groups were 82.0?23.8mg,73.0?25.0mg and 108.2?36.5mg,respectively.Propofol dosage of group Ⅲ was much larger than that of groups Ⅰand Ⅱ(P0.05).Dizziness and nausea occurred in 17 patients in group Ⅰ when they left the recovery room,whereas the same side effects only appeared in one patient in group Ⅱ and 3 patients in group Ⅲ,respectively.It was shown by follow-up that all patients of the three groups had no memory of pain.Conclusion Intravenous flurbiprofen axetil may strengthen intraoperative analgesia during coloscopy,reduce the dosage of fentanyl and propofol,and decrease the side effects of anesthesia.

Objective To study the effects of total intravenous anesthesia and combined inhalation and intravenous anesthesia on arousing time and recovery quality in rectifying surgery of scoliosis. Methods Forty patients (ASAⅠ-Ⅱ) were divided randomly into total-intravenous anesthesia group and combined inhalation and intravenous anesthesia group (n=20 each). Target controlled infusion (TCI) with propofol (2-4?g/ml) was used for maintenance in total intravenous anesthesia group, while isoflurane (0.8%-1.5%) and nitrous oxide (50%) were used in combined inhalation and intravenous anesthesia group. TCI remifentanyl (2-6ng/ml) was used for maintenance in both groups. Results Arousing time were 19.7?5.1min in total intravenous anesthesia group, but 11.9?3.3 min in combined inhalation and intravenous anesthesia group (P

Epidermal growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) comprise an effective therapy for advanced non-small cell lung cancer patients with EGFR-activating mutations. Unfortunately, most patients eventually develop resistance to EG-FR-TKIs, probably due to a secondary point mutation of EGFR T790M. Thus, a sensitive method for accurate detection of T790M mu-tation is essential. Peripheral blood detection has gained our attention because it is convenient, making dynamic noninvasive quantita-tive detection of T790M mutation an optimal means of monitoring the efficacy of EGFR-TKIs. To date, the clinical significance of T790M mutation and EGFR-TKI resistance remains controversial. Several EGFR-TKIs targeting EGFR mutation, which have been in-troduced in recent years, showed better response in patients with T790M mutation, indicating that T790M may be a biomarker for con-quering resistance. This review introduces the methodology of T790M detection and its role in clinical practice.

Objective To evaluate the effects of different concentrations and different duration of sevoflurane anesthesia on cognitive function in mice.Methods Fifty adult male C57BL/6 mice,weighing 20-24 g,aged 10 weeks,were randomly divided into 5 groups (n =10 each) using a random number table:control group (group C),1.3％ sevoflurane inhaled for0.5 h group (group S1),1.3％ sevoflurane inhaled for 2.0 h group (group S2),2.5％ sevoflurane inhaled for 2.0 h group (group S3),and 2.5％ sevoflurane inhaled for 4.0 h group (group S4).At 2 weeks after anesthesia,Morris water maze test was performed,and the escape latency and frequency of crossing the original platform were recorded.After the end of the test,the mice were sacrificed,and brains were removed to detect the expression of 2B subunit-containing N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NR2B) and activated caspase-3 in the hippocampus.Results Compared with group C,the escape latency was significantly shortened,and the frequency of crossing the original platform was increased in S1-3 groups,and the escape latency was prolonged,and no significant change was found in the frequency of crossing the original platform in group S4.Compared with group C,the expression of NR2B in hippocampal tissues was up-regulated in S1-4 groups,and the expression of activated caspase-3 in hippocampal tissues was up-regulated in S3 and S4 groups.Conclusion The reason for different effects of sevoflurane anesthesia on cognitive function is related to the concentration and duration in mice.

AIM: To investigate the changes of apoptosis in isolated pancreatic islet cells, insulin secretion, expression of Bcl-xL and Bax induced by combination of IL-1?, TNF-? and IFN-?, and effects of taurine on them. METHODS: Isolated pancreatic islet cells from Wistar rat were incubated in monolayer in vitro. NO-2/ NO-3 production, NOS activity, insulin secretion, the protein expression of Bcl-xL and Bax, percentage of islet cell apoptosis and DNA fragmentation in pancreatic islet cells incubated with combination of IL-1?, TNF-? and IFN-? were measured, and the effects of taurine on the changes of them were further investigated. RESULTS: Combination of IL-1?, TNF-? and IFN-? induced a significant increase in percentage of pancreatic islet cell apoptosis, NO-2/ NO-3 production and NOS activity, DNA ladder appearance, a decrease in insulin content, up-regulation in the protein expression of Bax and down-regulation in the protein expression of Bcl-xL (P

The pain is an emerging subject and need developing. The design of the research is the most important. This article emphatically introduced about the issues on quality monitoring and the logical administrative levels during practice.

BACKGROUND: Donor complications have been detected following autologous tendon transplantation for posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Although artificial tendon development and tissue-engineered tendon have achieved great progresses, there are some issues in clinical application. Since 1980's, allogenic tendon transplantation has aroused increasing attention. OBJECTIVE: To explore the selection of allogenic tendon materials and the effect of their application on reconstructing posterior cruciate ligament. METHODS: A total of 17 patients with posterior cruciate ligament injury of knee joint were treated with cryopreserved allogenic tendon by Tibial-inlay technique. During the operation, two tracts of tendons soaked in gentamicin saline for 15 minutes were conduplicated, and one end of the tendon was cancellous bone screw and fixed to the tibia attachment point of posterior cruciate ligament, and the other end was introduced into the joint through retention suture. The posterior joint capsule was repaired. The patient was placed at supine position, and the knee was flexed for 90°. The other end of the graft was introduced to femoral tunnel, and anterior drawer was tensed, and fixed by screw. RESULTS AND CONCLUSlN: The preoperative posterior drawer test of patients was >2+, including 7 cases of 3+ and 6 of 4+. The postoperative posterior drawer test was 0 in 4 cases, 1+ in 8 cases, 2+ in 4 cases and 3+ in 1 case, suggesting the posterior movement of the knee joint was significantly improved. Lysholm scores of patients were (48.5±4.3) points before operation and (88.3±5.4) points after operation. Results show that cryopreserved allogenic tendon by Tibial-inlay technique could restored function of posterior cruciate ligament with a favorable effect.

BACKGROUND:Sagittal imbalance induced by vertebral osteoporotic fractures has not been paid enough attention in previous studies.
OBJECTIVE:To assess the correlation of osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture and spinal sagittal imbalance.
METHODS:Sixty patients with old osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture, who were treated in the Department of Spine Surgery, the Affiliated Hospital of Chengde Medical Colege from February 2013 to August 2015, were enroled in this study as the observation group. Sixty healthy old people from physical examination center were enroled as the control group. The whole-spine anteroposterior and lateral X-ray films were taken in both groups. The number and the location of fractured vertebrae were recorded. Sagittal parameters of both groups including thoracic kyphotic angle, lumbar lordotic angle, T1-spinopelvic inclination angle and the C7plumb line/sacro-femoral distance (PL/SFD) ratio were measured and compared among groups. The observation group was dividedinto three subgroups according to the number of fractured vertebrae,i.e., single-vertebrae fracture subgroup, double-vertebrae fracture subgroup and above triple-vertebrae fracture subgroup. The C7PL/SFD ratio of the three subgroups was compared. The correlation between the number of fractured vertebrae and the C7PL/SFD ratio was analyzed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) The thoracic kyphotic angle of the observation group was bigger than that of the control group (P< 0.05). The lumbar lordotic angle of the observation group was smaler than that of the control group (P< 0.05). The absolute value of the T1-spinopelvic inclination angle of the observation group (-1.81±1.48)° was smaler than that of the control group (-3.35±1.22)° (P< 0.05). The C7PL/SFDratio of the observation group was significantly bigger than that of the control group (P< 0.05). (2) In the observation group, there were 4 cases of single-vertebrae fracture, 25 cases of double-vertebrae fracture and 31 cases of above triple-vertebrae fracture. Significant differences in the C7PL/SFD ratio were determined among subgroups (P< 0.05). The number of fractured vertebrae was positively correlated with the C7PL/SFD ratio; the correlation coefficient was 0.747. (3) Results indicated that osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture can change spinal local sagittal alignment. Multiple compression fractures of vertebrae can cause spinal sagittal imbalance. The gravity center of human body shifts forward. The number of fractured vertebrae was positively correlated with the range of shift forward.
