Objective To compare the effects of propofol,nidazolarm versus etomidate combined with sufentanil for anesthesia induction on intraocular pressure.Methods Forty-five ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 20-40 yr,scheduled for surgery under general surgery,were randomly divided into 3 groups(n =15 each):propofol group(group P); midazolam group(group M)and etomidate group(group E).Anesthesia was induced with iv injection of propofol 2 mg/kg,midazolam 0.2 mg/kg,and etomidate 0.3 mg/kg in P,M and E groups respectively,and then with iv injection of sufentanil 0.2 μg/kg and cisatracurium 0.2 mg/kg in all the groups.The patients were then tracheal intubated.Intraocular pressure(IOP)and MAP were recorded at 1 m in before induction of anesthesia (T0),before intubation(T1),and at 0,1 and 2 min after intubation(T2-4).Results Compared with group P,the incidence of intraocujar hypotension was significantly decreased in group M(P < 0.01).Compared with group E,the incidence of intraocular hypertension was significantly decreased in P and M groups(P < 0.05),The correlation coefficient between MAP and IOP was 0.831,0.889 or 0.806 in group P,M or E respectively(P <0.05),and there was no significant difference in the correlation coefficient among the three groups(P > 0.05).Conclusion Midazolam combined with sufentanil for anesthesia induction exerts less influence on lOP and the degree of MAP fluctuations is a major factor contributing to the change in IOP.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of double-lumen central venous catheter (DLCVC) for airway management in children undergoing resection of laryngeal papilloma under inhalation anesthesia with sevoflurane-spontaneous breathing.Methods Twenty-nine ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ podiatric patients,aged 1-9 yr,weighing 10-35 kg,scheduled for elective resection of laryngeal papilloma under self-retaining laryngoscope,were included in this study.Anesthesia was induced with inhalation of 8 % sevoflurane and the children kept spontaneous breathing.The larynx was sprayed with 2% lidocaine for topical anesthesia.A self-retaining laryngoscope was inserted and a 7F DLCVC was placed below the glottis via the self-retaining laryngoscope.4%-6% sevoflurance was insufflated via the main lumen of DLCVC (14G) to maintain anesthesia.PETCO2 was monitored through the branch lumen of DLCVC (18G).Before surgery (T1),at 20 min after the beginning of surgery (T2),and at the end of surgery (T3),arterial blood samples was obtained for blood gas analysis,and body movement,hypoxemia (SpO2 < 95 % during oxygen inhalation),and airway management failure (SpO2 < 90% during oxygen inhalation) were also recorded.Results Compared with the baseline value at T1,although there were significant changes in PaCO2,base excess,pH value and PaO2 at T2 and T3 (P < 0.05),they were all within the clinical reference ranges.There were no significant differences between PaCO2 and PETCO2 at T1,T2 and T3 (P > 0.05).The incidence of body movement and hypoxemia was 10%,and the rate of airway management failure was 3% (due to degree Ⅲ laryngeal obstruction).Conclusion DLCVC can be safely and effectively used for airway management in children with degree Ⅰ or Ⅱ laryngeal obstruction undergoing resection of laryngeal papilloma under inhalation anesthesia with sevoflurane-spontaneous breathing.

BACKGROUND:Intervertebral disc degeneration is an important cause of low back pain.At present,there are many modeling methods for disc degeneration in China and abroad,but there is not a model for low back pain due to disc degeneration. OBJECTIVE:To compare the effect of mechanical puncture combined with tumor necrosis factor α and complete Freund's adjuvant with a conventional disc mechanical puncture alone. METHODS:A total of 18 male adult Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 3 groups,with 6 animals in each group.No treatment was given in the blank group.Animal models of intervertebral disc degeneration were made in the L4-5 segments of rats in the control using conventional mechanical puncture.In the experimental group,on the basis of mechanical puncture,tumor necrosis factor α+complete Freund's adjuvant was injected into the L4-5 intervertebral discs using a microinjector to establish a model of disc degeneration induced by mechanical puncture combined with inflammatory factors.Four weeks after surgery,the pain threshold of rats was measured by the hot plate method for assessing the perception of heat injury in rats with intervertebral disc degeneration.MRI examination was performed to observe the disc degeneration in each group.ELISA was used to detect the levels of serum tumor necrosis factor α,interleukin 1β,interleukin 6 and prostaglandin E2.Hematoxylin-eosin and Safranin O-fast green staining were used to observe the morphological changes of the disc. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In terms of pain,the behavioral pain threshold of the experimental group was continuously decreased,and the levels of serum inflammatory factors were significantly higher compared with the control group.In terms of morphology,the MRI results showed that the L4-5 nucleus pulposus signal completely disappeared in the experimental group.Histopathological results showed that in the control group,the nucleus pulposus was intact,more notochord cells were visible,and some fiber rings were ruptured,while in the experimental group,there are fewer notochord cells and the structure of the nucleus pulposus and fibrous ring is disturbed,with the boundary disappearing.To conclude,mechanical puncture combined with tumor necrosis factor alpha and complete Freund's adjuvant can successfully establish a discogenic low back pain model in rats.This operation is simple and economical to achieve obvious disc degeneration and low back pain,with greatly shortened molding cycle.This model can be used as a reference for studying discogenic low back pain models.

Objective To evaluate the performance of GenoType®MTBDRplus VER2.0 kit for detecting Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTBC) in sputum. Methods Sputum samples from 177 patients with suspected tuberculosis were collected, and tested by smear, MGIT liquid culture and GenoType® MTBDRplus VER2.0. When the liquid culture was positive, identification of strains was carried out. The results were statistically analyzed using SPSS 22.0, and the consistency of the count data was compared using the Kappa test. Good consistency was defined as K≥0.75. The sensitivity and specificity were applied to evaluate the performance of GenoType® MTBDRplus VER2.0 kit for detecting MTBC in sputum. Results Based on the MGIT liquid culture results,,the sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value and total coincidence rate of the GenoType® MTBDRplus VER2.0 kit was 91.67%, 95.58%, 91.67%, 95.58% and 94.22%,respectively.The Kappa test was performed on both methods, K=0.872 (P<0.001). Conclusion GenoType® MTBDRplus VER2.0 kit had high sensitivity and specificity for detecting MTBC in sputum, and it has good application value for early diagnosis of tuberculosis.

This study aimed to evaluate the effects of thyroid hormone supplementation on growth rate of children with idiopathic short stature (ISS) and low-normal serum free thyroxine FT4 who were receiving growth hormone therapy. We selected 64 prepubertal children with FT4 levels in the lowest third of the normal range as the lower FT4 group, and these children were divided randomly into two subgroups: L-thyroxine (L-T4)-treated subgroup was treated with L-T4 (0.5-3.0 g/(kg·d)) from the beginning of the study, and the non-L-T4-treated subgroup received placebo. We also selected 39 ISS children with FT4 in the upper two-thirds of the normal range as the higher FT4 group. During the first year, the lower FT4 group featured lower FT3, FT4, thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH), and insulin-like growth factor-I standard deviation score (IGF-I SDS) and significantly lower height velocity (HV) compared with the higher FT4 group. However, in the lower FT4 group, the L-T4-treated subgroup presented higher FT4, FT3, TSH, and IGF-I SDS concentrations and significantly higher HV compared with children in the non-L-T4-treated subgroup. In children with ISS, the negative effect of thyroid hormone deficiency on growth rate should be considered when FT4 level lies in the low-normal range prior to recombinant human growth hormone treatment.
