Objective To investigate the effect of partial liquid ventilation(PLV) with perfluorocarbon(PFC) on pulmonary surfactant during beatment of acute lung injury(ALI) induced by oleic acid. MethodsTwenty-four male Japanese white rabbits weighing 2. 1-2.6 kg were randomly divided into three groups(n = 8 ineach group): groupl: normal animal + mechanical ventilation (MV); group 2: ALI + MV; group 3: ALI +PLV.The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal ketamine 100 mg/kg, trachectomized and mechanicallyventilated (FiO_2 = 1, RR = 35 bpm, I: E = 1: 2, PEEP = 5 cm H_2O, PaCO_2 was maintained at 35-45 mm Hg byadjustment of tidal volume) .In group 2 and 3 ALI was induced by infusion of oleic acid 150?g/kg via centralvenous catheter over 30 min period. ALI was considered established when PaO_2 /FiO_2 was

Objective To determine if propofol-remifentanil and isoflurane have any different effects on intrapulmonary shunt during one-lung ventilation (OLV). Methods Twenty-four ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients (18 male, 6 female) aged 42-69 yr undergoing radical esophagus cancer resection via left thoracotomy were randomly divided into 2 equal groups ( n = 8 each) : propofol group (Pro) and isoflurane group (Iso) . The preoperative lung function was normal in both groups. The patients were premedicated with intramuscular diazepam 10 mg and atropine 0.5 mg. Radial artery was cannulated and S-G catheter was placed via right internal jugular vein in pulmonary artery. Anesthesia was induced with propofol 1.5-2.0 mg?kg-1, fentanyl 4 ?g?kg-1 and succinylcholine 1.5 mg?kg-1 and maintained with TCI of propofol and remifentanil (target plasma concentration was set at 3.2 ?g?ml-1 and 4.5 ng?ml-1 ) or isoflurane inhalation ( end- tidal isoflurane concentration = 1.5% -2.5 % ) and intermittent i. v. boluses of fentanyl. The patients were mechanically ventilated after endobronchial intubation with double-lumen tube (VT = 8-10 ml, RR= 10-12 bpm, I:E = 1:2) . During OLV VT was reduced to 6-8 ml and RR increased to 14-16 bpm.PaCO2 was maintained at 35-45 mm Hg. ECG, HR, MAP, SpO2, auditory-evoked potential index (AAI), cardiac index (CI), airway pressure and end-tidal isoflurane concentration were continuously monitored during operation. Blood samples were taken from radial artery and pulmonary artery at 10 min after S-G catheter placement (T0, baseline) at 10 min bilateral ventilation (in right lateral position) (T1) at 15, 30, 60, 90 min of OLV (T2-5) for measurement of blood gases and calculation of Qs/Qt.Results The two groups were comparable with respect to age, M/F ratio, body weight and preoperative lung function. AAI was below 30 during operation and PaCO2 and pH were within normal range in both groups. Qs/Qt was significantly increased while PaO2 was significantly decreased during operation (from T1 to T5 ) as compared to baseline values (T0) but Qs/Qt was gradually decreasing while PaO2 was gradually increasing from T2-5 in both groups. Qs/Qt was significantly lower in Pro group than in Iso group at each interval (T2-5) but there was no significant difference in PaO2 at T2-5 between the two groups. Conclusion There is less intrapulmonary shunt during OLV under general anesthesia with propofol-remifentanil than with isoflurane but the difference is not significant enough to affect PaO2.

Objective To investigate the application effects of ultrasonic scalpel combined with bipolar coag-ulation tweezers on open thyroid surgery.Methods 80 cases of thyroidectomy patients were randomly selected.These patients were divided into two groups by random cluster sampling method,whch were the study group (n =40)and control group (n =40).The control group of patients were given ultracision ligature methods combined with traditional therapy,while the study group of patients were given ultrasonic scalpel combined with bipolar coagulation tweezers treatment.And then the surgical related indicators and complications of the two groups of patients were statistically an-alyzed.Results Compared with the control group of (90.5 ±3.6)min,(6.5 ±0.6)d,(40.5 ±2.0)mL,(50.3 ± 1.4)mL and (6.6 ±0.5)cm,the operative time and length of stay of the study group of patients[(58.5 ±5.4)min and (3.4 ±0.2)d]were significantly shorter (t =6.965,3.143,all P <0.05);the blood loss and postoperative drainage of (5.0 ±1.4)mL and (1.0 ±0.6)mL were significantly less (t =4.541,3.747,all P <0.05);the cut diameter of (3.8 ±0.3)cm was significantly shorter (t =3.365,P <0.05);the complication rate of 2.5% (1 /40) was significantly lower than the control group 10.0%(4 /40)(χ2 =9.35,P <0.05).Conclusion The application effects of ultrasonic scalpel combined with bipolar coagulation tweezers on open thyroid surgery are obvious.

BACKGROUND:Accumulating studies have confirmed the excellent effectiveness of local infiltration analgesia, but the literature analysis is mainly limited to within 1 day after total knee arthroplasty or shorter period.
OBJECTIVE:To study the effectiveness of local infiltration analgesia (LIA) at low concentration after total knee arthroplasty, and to observe the analgesic effect at rest and movement states.
METHODS:Thirty patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty were randomly al ocated to control group and LIA group, receiving oral non-steroidal anti nflammatory drug (celebrex) and low concentration of ropivacaine (0.1%) for epidural analgesia. Control group was injected with 0.9%saline 150 mL, while LIA group was injected with equal volume of solution include ropivacaine 300 mg, morphine 5 mg and epinephrine 10μg. The rest pain and motion pain of patients in two groups were evaluated at 6, 12, 24, 36, 48 hours after operation by using visual analogue scale. The incidence rate and degree of nausea, vomiting, numbness and muscle weakness of the legs were observed after operation. The incision healing was also recorded.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Visual analogue scale pain scores in the LIA group were significantly lower than the control group at 6, 12, 24 and 36 hours at rest (P<0.05), at 6, 12, 24, 36, 48 hours on movement (P<0.05). At 6 and 12 hours, there was no difference in the rest and motion pains in the LIA groups (P>0.05). No patient appeared drowsiness, nausea, and vomiting in both groups. Two patients in each group complained of slight numbness in legs. No case influenced function exercise because of muscle weakness. Al the wounds healed and there were no incision infections in two groups. Combined with oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug and low concentration of ropivacaine for epidural analgesia, the local infiltration analgesia technique in total knee arthroplasty is effective in early post-operative pain management, and produces no analgesia related adverse reactions.

Aim To investigate the change in neuropeptide Y(NPY) Y1 receptor level in infarcted myocardium tissues of (MI) rats. 　Method MI was induced by ligating the left descending anterior coronary artery (LAD) in the heart of rats. The techniques of reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) were used to identify the exist of NPY Y1 receptor mRNA in myocardial tissues. The technique of semi-quantitative PCR wa s used to observe the change of NPY Y1 receptor mRNA level. 　Results NPY Y1 receptor mRNA distributed in the heart tissues of rat. Compared with sham operated rats ,the NPY Y1 receptor mRNA level both in infarction area and non-infarction area was increased significantly after MI fo r 1d and 3d. The NPY Y1 receptor mRNA level in the heart tissues of sham-op erated rats was also significantly increased compared with that in control rats . 　Conclusion These results suggest that MI may result in increase NPY Y1 receptor level in the heart tissues of rats. Stre ss stimulation such as surgery may also increase the NPY Y1 receptor level in the heart.
