1.Bone cancer pain induce anxiety-like behavior and high expression of NR2B subunit in anterior cingulate cortex of rats
The Journal of Clinical Anesthesiology 2016;32(5):495-499
Objective To investigate the effect of bone cancer pain on emotion and NMDA re-ceptor NR2B subunit expression level in anterior cingulate cortex (ACC)in rats.Methods One hun-dred and fifty healthy male Wistar rats weighing 200-250 g aged 3 months old were randomly divided into 3 groups (n = 50 in each group):sham operation group (group S),bone cancer pain group (group BCP),RO25-6981 group (group RO).The BCP model was established by inoculating Walker 256 breast cancer cells into right intra-tibial.Rats in group S were given the same dose of d-hanks. Group RO was injected intraperitoneally with RO25-6981 (5 mg/kg/d)on the day of inoculation, while rats in the group S and group BCP were given the same dose of normal saline.Mechanical with-drawal threshold (MWT)and thermal withdrawal latency (TWL)of right hind legs were measured on day 7,10,14 after inoculation respectively.Elevated plus-maze test was carried out to investigate the effect of bone cancer pain on emotion in rats after pain threshold detection,then the percentage of the times entering the open arms (OE)and the percentage of the time staying in the open arms (OT) duration the total period were evaluated.Then the anterior cingulate cortex tissue was removed to e-valuate the NR2B protein and mRNA expression levels by RT-PCR,Western blot and immunofluo-rescence methods on day 14 after elevated plus-maze test.Results All the parameters did not differ with significant difference between group S and group RO.MWT decreased and TWL shortened on day 7,10,14 after inoculation in group BCP compared with those before inoculation and those of group S and group RO.OE and OT in group BCP reduced remarkably than those before inoculation and those of group S and group RO.Relative absorbance of NR2B mRNA,the expression of NR2B pro-tein,average NR2B relative fluorescence intensity value is obviously higher than that of group S and group RO (P <0.05).Conclusion Bone cancer pain can induce pain-related aversion and anxiety-like behavior of rats,and the mechanism may be related to the high expression of NR2B in anterior cingu-late cortex.
2.Latest progress on diagnosis and treatment of glenohumeral instability.
China Journal of Orthopaedics and Traumatology 2014;27(2):172-176
As a common and frequently-occurring disease,glenohumeral instability is become one of disease which restrict upper limb activity. The diagnosis of this disease is easy, but it is very difficult to assess the degree of periarticular soft tissue injuries. With the development of magnetic resonance imaging and arthroscopy, MRA become the gold standard for evaluation of glenoid labrum, joint capsule and ligaments injury. The traditional manual reduction is a fast, simple method, but often can cause adverse consequences,such as rotator cuff tear,ligament relaxation,and habitual dislocation. Open operation can rebuild stability of joint,but with many new treatment methods,especially the arthroscopic reconstruction has gradually replaced the open operation, and become the mainstream trend, but for the long-term effect of capsular tightening surgery, rotator cuff gap closure is not clear,it is need further follow-up observation.

Objective To investigate the efficacy of preemptive analgesia with parecoxib sodium combined with local infiltration anesthesia with ropivacaine for postoperative pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy.Methods One hundred and fifty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 41-63 yr,weighing 55-87 kg,scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy under the general anesthesia,were randomly divided into 3 groups (n=50 each): parecoxib sodium+0.9% normal saline (group A),parecoxib sodium + 0.5% ropivacaine (group B) and parecoxib sodium + 0.75 % ropivacaine (group C).Parecoxib sodium 40 mg was injected intravenously 30 min before induction of anesthesia.Anesthesia was induced and maintained with remifentanil and propofol given by TCI.Immediately before skin closure,0.9% normal saline 12 ml was given in group A,and 0.5% and 0.75% ropivacaine 12 ml were injected for local infiltration anesthesia in groups B and C,respectively.VAS scores were maintained ≤ 3after operation.When VAS scores > 3,pethidine 75 mg was injected intramuscularly.Ramsay sedation scores were recorded at the end of operation and 2,4,8,12 and 24 h after operation.The side effects (nausea and vomiting,allergy,respiratory depression,etc.),requirement for pethidine,algesic sites (incisional pain,upper abdominal pain,referred pain in right shoulder),and condition of the wound healing were all recorded within 24 h after opcration.Results Compared with group A,Ramsay sedation scores,the incidence of nausea and vomiting,the requirement for pethidine and total amount of pethidine,and the incidence of incisional pain were significantly decreased in groups B and C (P < 0.05 or 0.01).Compared with group B,the requirement for pethidine and total amount of pethidine,and the incidence of incisional pain were significantly decreased in group C (P < 0.05 or 0.01).There was no significant difference in Ramsay sedation scores between groups B and C (P > 0.05).There was no significant difference in the condition of the wound healing,upper abdominal pain and referred pain in right shoulder between groups A,B and C (P > 0.05).Conclusion For the patients scheduled for laparoscopic cholecystectomy,local infiltration anesthesia with ropivacaine can improve the efficacy of preemptive analgesia with parecoxib sodium,and it provides better postoperative analgesia when 0.75 % ropivacaine is used.
8.Progress and prospect in the clinical translation of cancer nanomedicine
Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica 2022;57(1):134-141
Nanotechnology has shown broad application prospects in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. Currently, nearly 80 cancer nanomedicines are under clinical investigation, and many have been approved with enhanced anti-tumor efficacy and decreased side effects. However, the presence of various barriers in related basic research, process control and clinical trials lead to extremely low translation rate. From the perspective of clinical commercialization, we summarized the progress, clinical status, challenges and opportunities of cancer nanomedicine, and presented a cutting-edge prospect on the rational design of nanomedicine and clinical trial strategies.

Objective To determine the effectiveness and safety of antiplatelet and anticoagulant agents in the treatment of extracranial internal carotid artery dissection (eICAD). Methods Antiplatelet and anticoagulant agents were adopted to treat two cases of eICAD in our hospital. The clinical data were retrospectively analyzed and the medical literatures concerning eICAD, which were obtained from Pubmed database, were reviewed. Results Most researches advocated the empirical use of antiplatelet and anticoagulant agents in eICAD. About 30% of occluded eICAD could be reopened in 8 days and about 60% - 80% in 3 months after the onset of the disease. During the period of treatment, the rate of ischemic stroke recurrence, disability or death was 8.3%-14.3% in anticoagulant group, while it was 7% - 23.7% in antiplatelet group. Conclusion Antiplatelet agents can be used in patients with eICAD who are contraindicated to anticoagulants. Anticoagulants should be used as early as possible in patients who are not contraindicated to anticoagulants.
