Objective:To investigate the effect of early postoperative cognitive dysfunction and postoperative analgesia situation after intercostal nerve block was applied on elderly patient received thoracic surgery.Methods: 105 elderly patients underwent thoracic surgeries were divided into observation group (35 patients received intercostal nerve block combined with general anesthesia), control A group (35 patients received epidural anesthesia combined with general anesthesia) and control B group (35 patients received routine general anesthesia). The cognitive function, postoperative pain, intraoperative mean artery pressure (MAP) and heart rate of the patients among different groups were respectively compared.Results: The cognitive function scores in postoperative 12h, 24h, 72h of observation group were significantly higher than that of control A group (t=20.917,t=27.780, t=74.081,P<0.05), respectively. And all of these data also were significantly higher than that of control B group (t=37.922,t=48.969,t=62.653,P<0.05), respectively. The differences of MAP, HR value between observation group and control A group were statistically significant (t=18.927,t=22.380,P<0.05), respectively. And the differences of them between observation group and control B group also were statistically significant (t=31.051, t=19.932, P<0.05), respectively. Besides, the differences of pain scores in postoperative 6h, 12h, 24h, 48h between observation group and control A group were not statistically significant, while all of pain scores of observation group were significantly lower than that of control B group (t=18.731,t=19.035, t=21.093,t=17.036;P<0.05).Conclusion:Intercostal nerve block combined with general anesthesia can ensure more stable intraoperative vital signs for elderly patients underwent thoracic surgeries, and it contributes to improve early cognitive function and possesses better postoperative analgesic effect for elderly patients.

Objective: To research the effect of dexmedetomidine on regional cerebral oxygen saturation(rSO2)and postoperative cognitive function in elder patients received prostatectomy by using laparoscope. Methods: 60 elderly patients received prostatectomy by using laparoscope were divided into observation group (30cases) and control group (30cases) as random number table. In observation group, the dexmedetomidine was injected by venous pump after endotracheal intubation of general anesthesia was implemented, while the equivalent normal saline (NS) was injected by venous pump in control group. The rSO2, PaCO2 and PaO2 of different time point between the two groups were observed and compared. The usages of propofol and remifentanil, the situation of postoperative restlessness, and situation of nausea and vomiting between the two groups were compared. Besides, the scores of MoCA of different time point between the two groups also were compared. Results: The usages of propofol and remifentanil of observation group were significantly lower than that of control group (t=3.449, t=9.466, P<0.05), respectively. The occurrence rate of postoperative restlessness and occurrence rate of nausea and vomiting were 10.0% and 6.7%, respectively, while they were 13.3% and 3.3%in control group, and the differences of them between the two groups were no significant (x2=0.162, x2=0.351, P>0.05). The score of MoCA of observation group was significant higher than that of control group (t=8.938, P<0.05) at postoperative 1d. Conclusion: In the elder patients received prostatectomy by using laparoscope, the dexmedetomidine doesn't affect the rSO2 level of patients, while it contributes to fast recover the postoperative cognitive function of patients.

Objective To study how ANGPTL4 modulates phenylephrine(PE)-induced cardiac fibrosis. Methods PE was applied to induce cardiac fibrosis. The knockdown effect of ANGPTL4 under PE stimuli was confirmed by Western blot;the proliferation of cardiac fibroblast was detected by CCK-8;mRNA levels of Collagen 1(Col1)and connective tissue growth factor(CTGF)were detected by QPCR to investigate the regula-tion of cardiac fibrosis by ANGPTL4. Results PE induced the proliferation of cardiac fibroblast and the up-regula-tion of mRNA levels of Col1 and CTGF;ANGPTL4 knockdown deteriorated cardiac fibrosis,manifested by the up-regulation of Col1 and CTGF. Conclusion ANGPTL4 inhibits PE-induced cardiac fibrosis.

Objective To explore the effects of urokinase type plasminogen activator (uPA) gene-modified bone marrow-derived liver stem cells ( BDLSC) transplantation on hepatocyte regeneration in CCl4-induced liver fibrosis rats. Methods Ten male Fisher 344 rats were donor rats of BDLSC. The BDLSC of male rat was transfected with AduPA. Thirty-six female Fisher 344 rats were equally divided into normal group (injected subcutaneously with olive oil) , model group (CCl4 induced the model, injected through tail vein with 0. 9% sodium chloride), BDLSC group (CCl4 induced the model, injected through tail vein with BDLSC) and gene transfected group (CCl4 induced the model,injected through tail vein with gene transfected BDLSC). Liver function and area of collagen were observed. The expression of hepatic growth factor ( HGF) and its receptor c-met mRNA in rats' liver tissues were tested by semiquantitative RT-PCR. The expressions of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) in rats' liver tissues were determined by immunohistochemistry staining. Results The areas of collagen in normal group, model group, BDLSC group and gene transfected group was 0. 12% ± 0.03%, 14. 49%±1.40%, 8. 25%±0. 82% and 5. 12%±0. 40% accordingly, there were significant differences between groups (P<0. 05). Compared with model group and BDLSC group, the liver function of gene transfected group significantly improved, the serum levels of hyaluronic acid (HA),procollagen Ⅲ (PCⅢ) and the content of hydroxyproline in liver tissues decreased dramatically. The expression of HGF and c-met at mRNA levels were up-regulated significantly, and the expression of PCNA protein in liver tissues increased obviously. Conclusion uPA gene-modified BDLSC transplantation may induce proliferation of hepatocytes, and then improve the liver functions of fibrotic rats induced by CCl4.
