Objective To determine the risk factors for emergence agitation (EA) during the recovery period after general anesthesia.Methods One thousand and thirty-four patients of both sexes aged 18-89 yr undergoing general anesthesia were divided into EA group and non-EA group.EA occurring during recovery from general anesthesia was assessed by using Riker sedation-agitation scale.Age,sex,complication,education,medical history,ASA physical status,type and duration of anesthesia and operation,volume of blood loss,fluid replacement,urine volume,duration of stay in PACU,number of drainage tubes and so forth were recorded.Multivariate logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors for the occurrence of EA.Results Thirty-six patients developed EA during recovery from anesthesia.The incidence of EA was 3.5 ％.Logistic regression indicated that high risk operation,premedication with diazepam,induction of anesthesia without midazolom and fluid replacement during operation were the risk factors for EA (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion High-risk operation,premedication with diazepam,induction of anesthesia without midazolom and fluid replacement during operation are the risk factors for EA during recovery from general anesthesia.

Objective To investigate the effects of ketamine on neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) activity and carboxy-terminal PDZ ligand of nNOS (CAPON) expression in the prefrontal lobe of mentally depressed rats.Methods Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 2.5-3.0 months,weighing 210-260 g,were used in the study.Menial depression was induced by exposing the rats to chronic unpredictable mild stress.Twenty-four animals in which mental depression was successfully induced were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =12 each):mental depression group (group D) and ketamine group (group K).Another 12 rats were chosen and served as control group (group C).Group K received intraperitoneal ketamine 10 mg/kg once a day for 7 consecutive days,while groups C and D received intraperitoneal normal saline 10 ml/kg instead of ketamine.Sucrose preference test and open field test were performed before administration and at 1 day after the end of administration.The total distance,number of rearing and sucrose preference percentage (SPP) were recorded.The rats were sacrificed 1 day after the last test for determination of the expression of nNOS and CAPON protein (using immuno-histochemistry)and mRNA (by RT-PCR) in the prefrontal lobe.Results Compared with group C,the total distance was shortened,the number of rearing and SPP were significantly decreased,the expression of nNOS protein and mRNA was up-regulated and the expression of CAPON protein and mRNA was down-regulated in groups D and K (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with group D,the total distance was prolonged,the number of rearing and SPP were significantly increased,the expression of nNOS and mRNA was down-regulated and the expression of CAPON protein and mRNA was up-regulated in group K (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Ketamine can improve the depressive state through promoting the expression of CAPON and inhibiting nNOS activity in the prefrontal lobe of mentally depressed rats.

OBJECTIVE To study the protective effect of Orychophragmus violaceus(OV)seed against acute hepatotoxicity induced by the traditional Chinese Medicine Cortex Dictamni in mice. METHODS Twenty-five mice were randomly divided into 5 groups:control group,Cortex Dictamni group(70 g · kg-1)and OV seed groups(36,54 and 72 g · kg-1). OV Seed groups were orally adminis?tered with the aqueous extract of OV seed for 4 consecutive days while the other groups were ig given water. On the 4th day,Cortex Dictamni group and OV seed groups were ig given the aqueous extract of Cortex Dictamni,and normal control group was ig given water. Twenty-four hours later,all the mice had their blood and liver samples taken after anesthesia. The serum chemical parameters were measured, including glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT),glutamate pyruvate transaminase (GPT) and lactate dehydrogenase(LDH),as well as malondialdehyde(MDA),glutathione(GSH)and oxidized glutathione(GSSG)levels in the liver. GSH/GSSG ratio was calculated. Histopathologic changes in the liver were observed and the area was calculated after HE staining. RESULTS Compared with normal control group,Cortex Dictamni(70 g · kg-1)increased the serum GOT,GPT and LDH levels by 500, 140 and 40 fold(P<0.01). OV seed reduced serum GOT,GPT and LDH levels increased by Cortex Dictamni(P<0.05,P<0.01),by as much as 62%,75% and 99% for GPT,70%,82% and 98% for GOT,and 55%,75%and 96%for LDH,respectively. The level of MDA and the ratio of GSH/GSSG in Cortex Dictamni group were 1.39 ± 0.58 and(3.53 ± 1.27)μmol · g-1,a 10-fold increase and 40%decline compared with normal control group(P<0.01). OV seed of 72 g·kg-1 lowered the level of MDA by 22%(P<0.05),and OV seed(36,54 and 72 g · kg-1)increased the GSH/GSSG ratio by 47%,42%and 54%(P<0.05). Histopathologic results showed that OV seed alleviated the liver damage induced by Cortex Dictamni from(64.1±8.5)%to(37.5±7.1)%and (20.0±0.8)%(P<0.01). CONCLUSION OV seed can effectively protect mice from the acute hepatotoxicity induced by Cortex Dictamni.

Aim To investigate the effect of ketamine plus fluoxetine on depressed behavior and the expres-sion of neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS)and CA-PON in prefrontal lobe of mentally depressed rats at different time points,so as to study the possible mecha-nism of ketamine plus fluoxetine inducing antidepres-sant behavior.Methods Healthy adult male Sprague-Dawley rats,aged 2.5 ~3 months,weighing 220 ~270 g,were induced as the rodent model of depression by chronic unpredictable mild stress (CUMS).After the models of depression were established,96 of CUMS modeling successfully depressed rats were selected. Then they were randomly divided into four groups (n =24 each):the depressed group (group D,untreated group),ketamine group (group K,treated with intrap-eritoneal injection of ketamine 1 0 mg·kg -1 once a day for 3 days or 7 days),fluoxetine group (group F,trea-ted with gavage of fluoxetine 1 .8 mg·kg -1 once a day for 3 days or 7 days),or ketamine plus fluoxetine group (group KF,treated with intraperitoneal injection of ketamine 1 0 mg·kg -1 plus gavage of fluoxetine 1 .8 mg·kg -1 once a day for 3 days or 7 days).Open field test and sucrose preference test were performed 1 day before depression model was established,and 1 day before and after treatment.The rats were sacrificed 1 day after the last test for determination of the expres-sion of nNOS and CAPON protein (using immuno-his-tochemisity)and mRNA (by RT-PCR)in the prefron-tal lobe.Results After the models of depression were established,the total distance,rearing number and the sucrose preference percentage (SPP)were decreased significantly compared with those before (P <0.05). There was no significant difference among all groups in the total distance,rearing number and the SPP before treatment (P >0.05 ).Compared with groups D and F,the total distance was prolonged,the number of rea-ring and SPP were significantly increased,the expres-sion of nNOS protein and mRNA was down-regulated and the expression of CAPON protein and mRNA was up-regulated in groups K and KF,with 3 days’treat-ment (P <0.05).Compared with group D,the total distance was prolonged,the number of rearing and SPP were significantly increased,the expression of nNOS protein and mRNA was down-regulated and the expres-sion of CAPON protein and mRNA was up-regulated in groups K,F and KF with 7 days’treatment (P <0.05).Compared with group F,the total distance was prolonged,the number of rearing and SPP were signifi-cantly increased,the expression of nNOS protein and mRNA was down-regulated and the expression of CA-PON protein and mRNA was up-regulated in group KF with 7 days’treatment (P <0.05).Conclusion Co-administration of antidepressant fluoxetine with ket-amine may induce a more pronounced antidepressant activity than treatment with each antidepressant alone and it can shorten the time to improve the depressive state through promoting the expression of CAPON and inhibiting nNOS activity in the prefrontal lobe of men-tally depressed rats.

Objective To evaluate the growth inhibition and apoptosis of human monocytic leukemia THP-1 cell line by using 5,8-dimethyl-2-β-hydroxyisovalerylshikonin (SK36) and explore its preliminary mechanism. Methods CCK colorimetric assay and cell counting was used to examine the growth inhibition of shikonin on THP-1 cells. The apoptosis of THP-1 cells was detected by Annexin V/PI double labeling. The activation of Caspase-3 apoptosis pathway was determined by FCM. The apoptosis and the necrosis of THP-1 cells were detected by the laser scanning confocal microscopy. Results When the THP-1 cells were treated with SK36 at 1.02 μg/ml for 24 h and 48 h, the growth inhibition was dose-dependent. The cell apoptotic rate of THP-1 cells treated with 1.02 μg/ml evaluated by FCM with Annexin V/PI double labeling staining were (40.61 ±2.13) % and (67.40±9.15) % at 24 h and 48 h after treatment, respectively, which were significantly higher than that of the control group [(16.97±0.61) %] ([ = 18.444, t = 9.528, P <0.01). SK36 could induce THP-1 cells apoptosis involving the activation of Caspase-3 (F= 323.61, P<0.01). Conclusion SK36 can induce human THP-1 cells to undergo apoptosis, and its primary mechanism was to activate the Caspase-3.

Objective:To assess the efficacy and the safety of the radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) for the septal accessory pathway (AP) in children.Methods:From September 2013 to March 2019, 626 patients plan to underwent RFCA for paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (PSVT) in Shanghai Children′s Medical Center Affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine.Among them, 74 consecutive patients with right or left septal APs were included in the study and their clinical and RFCA data were analyzed.Results:The age of these 74 children (45 males, 29 female) was (7.8±3.5) years, ranging from 10 months to 13 years.The body weight (BW) was (27.7±14.4) kg, with 3 patients BW<15 kg.A discordant ventricular wall motion (DVWM) was found in 5 patients, and the combined congenital heart diseases were discovered in 2 patients.A three dimensional mapping system was applied in 69 ablations, and 3 ablations were performed only with the fluoroscopy monitor of 5 cases.According to the AP location, the number of cases located in the anteroseptal, the midseptal, the mouth of coronary sinus, the left posteroseptal and the right posteroseptal, were 28, 18, 10, 10 and 8, respectively.The ablation operations were applied in 72 patients.The initial acute success reached in 67 (93.1%) patients.The ablation energy was (18.0±1.8) W, the fluoroscopy time during the ablations was (4.7±2.7) minutes, and the procedure duration was (151.5±58.6) minutes.One inadvertent complete atrioventricular block (AVB) was noted as the ablation-related complication.All 5 children with the pre-DVWM were recovered after ablations.During a follow-up of (23.8±10.8) months, 4 patients experienced the recurrence of preexcitation syndrome atrioventricular reentrant tachycardia.Conclusions:With the 3D-mapping system, the RFCA of septal APs can be performed safely and effectively in pediatric patients of paroxysmal supraventri-cular tachycardia.However, as the ablation-related complication, AVB should not be ignored.
