Objective To compare the efficacy of combined intravenous-inhalational anesthesia with propofol-fentanyl-sevoflurane in children undergoing minor surgery under spontaneous breathing with nasopharyngeal airway-face mask versus laryngeal mask airway (LMA).Methods Seventy-two children,scheduled for elective high ligation of indirect inguinal hernia,were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =36 each):nasopharyngeal airway-face mask group (group M) and LMA group (group L).Propofol 1.0 mg/kg and fentanyl 2.0μg/kg were injected intravenously.The spontaneous breathing was kept.After lass of consciousness,a face mask was placed for inhalation of pure oxygen at 2 L/min and 3 ％ sevoflurane.When BIS value reached 50-60,a size 2 LMA was inserted in group L and a nasopharyngeal airway was placed via the left nasal cavity and the face mask was held tightly and connected to the anesthesia machine in group M.Anesthesia was maintained with inhalation of 2％-4％ sevoflurane.Fentanyl 1 μg/kg was injected intravenously 5 min before skin incision.The concentration of sevoflurane was adjusted to maintain BIS value at 40-60 during surgery.Mean arterial pressure,heart rate,partial pressure of end-tidal carbon dioxide and pulse oxygen saturation were recorded before induction,at 3 min during induction,immediately after successful insertion of the airway,at skin incision,3 min after skin incision,and immediately after removal of the airway.The airway insertion time,success rate of insertion at first attempt,emergence time,and adverse reactions were recorded.Results Compared with group L,mean arterial pressure and heart rate were significantly decreased during airway insertion or removal,nasopharyngeal airway insertion time was shortened and the success rate of nasopharyngeal airway insertion at first attempt (100％) was increased,and the agitation score and incidence of obstruction of the upper respiratory tract were decreased in group M (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Combined inravenous-inhalational anesthesia with propofol-fentanyl-sevoflurane is easy to establish the airway,can maintain spontaneous breathing,has little influence on circulatory function and reduce complications during recovery from anesthesia in children undergoing minor surgery under spontaneous breathing with nasopharyngeal airway-face mask,and the efficacy is better than that with LMA.

Objective To evaluate the effects of different blood-saving strategies on postoperative cellular immune function in patients undergoing resection for liver cancers.Methods Sixty-six ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients,aged 25-64 yr,with hepatocellular carcinoma classification G1-G3 and clinicopathological staging Ⅰ-Ⅳ,undergoing elective resection for liver cancers,were randomly divided into 3 groups (n =22 each) using a random number table:low central venous pressure group (L group),acutenormovolemic hemodilution group (A group),and acute normovolemic hemodilution combined with low central venous pressure group (AL group).Acute normovolemic hemodilution was performed after endotracheal intubation.Right jugular vein was cannulated for central venous pressure monitoring.Blood withdrawn from the radial artery at a rate of 25-40 ml/min was simultaneously replaced by iv infusion of the equal volume of 130/0.4 hydroxyethyl starch at the same rate until the target Hct (30％) was achieved.In A and AL groups,central venous pressure was maintained at 3-5 cm H2O during the procedure of liver parenchyma transection.Peripheral venous blood samples were taken before operation (T1,baseline) and on postoperative days 1,3 and 5 (T2-4) to determine the percentage of regulatory T-lymphocytes (CD4 + CD25 +,CD25 + Foxp3+),effective T-lymphocytes (CD8 +,CD4 + CD25-) and natural killer (NK) cells by flow cytometry.Results Compared with the baseline value at T1,the percentage of CD4 + CD25 +and CD25 + Foxp3+ was significantly decreased,and the percentage of CD8 + and CD4 + CD25-was increased at T3,4,and the percentage of NK cells was decreased at T2 in A and AL groups,and the percentage of CD4 + CD25 +and CD25 + Foxp3+ was decreased,and the percentage of CD8 + and CD4 + CD25-was increased at T4,and the percentage of NK cells was decreased at T2,3 in group L (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with L group,the percentage of CD4 + CD25 + and CD25 + Foxp3+ was significantly decreased at T3,the percentage of CD8 + was increased at T3,4,and the percentage of NK cells was increased at T3 in AL group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Acute normovolemic hemodilution combined with low central venous pressure provides slighter inhibitory effect on the immune function of T-lymphocytes and NK cells in patients undergoing resection for liver cancers than either alone.

Objective To investigate the treatment effects of dahuang gancao decoction on lung Injury complicated by acute necrotizing pancreatitis and explore its mechanism. Methods 90 Wistar rats were randomly divided into 3 groups, namely sham-operated group (SO), ANP group (ANP), dahuang gancao decoction treatment group (DG). 4% sodium taurocholate was injected into the pancreatic duct to induce ANP. Dahuang gancao decoction(0.25 g/ml) 0.6 ml/100 g weight was gavaged in the DG group, the same volume of normal saline was gavaged in the SO and ANP group, which was repeated 12 h later. After 6 h, 12 h, 24 h, all rats were sacrificed, pancreas and lung tissues were harvested to observe the pathological changes and the pathological changes were scored. IL-6, IL-10, TNF-α levels of serum and lung tissue were measured,and the changes of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) expression in lung tissue was determined by immunohistochemical method. Results 12 h after ANP induction, the serum levels of IL-6 in SO, ANP, DG group were (14.4±4.0)pg/ml, (171.4 ±41.3)pg/ml, (156.9 ±34.7)pg/ml; the serum levels of IL-10 were (13.7 ±4.5)pg/ml, (120.5 ±23.7)pg/ml, (148.3 ±44.4)pg/ml; the serum levels of TNF-α were (22.4 ±4.7)pg/ml, (261.3 ±51.4)pg/ml, (235.3 ±45.9)pg/ml; the lung tissue levels of IL-6 were (257.3 ±55.9)pg/ml,(2578.3 ±403.0)pg/ml,(2370.0 ±491.0)pg/ml; the lung tissue levels of IL-10 were (80.8 ±20. 8)pg/g, (642.0 ± 107.3)pg/g, (695.3 ± 151.7) pg/g, the lung tissue levels of TNF-α were (207.6 ±98.6)pg/g, (1769.1 ±635.6) pg/g, (1401.1 ±450.5) pg/g; the pancreas pathological scores were 0, 7.00 ±1.33, 6.30 ± 0.95; the lung pathological scores were 0, 6.30 ± 1.42, 5.60 ± 0.97; the expressions of TLR4in lung tissue were 0.09 ± 0. 03, 0.59 ± 0. 09, 0. 52 ± 0. 08. The values in the ANP and DG groups were significantly higher than those in SO group (P < 0. 01 ); except for IL-10, all values in the DG groups were significantly lower than those in ANP group (P < 0.05); there was a positive association between lung and pancreas scores (r =0.807, P<0.01), and lung score was positively associated with the expression of TLR4(r = 0.519, P < 0.01 ). Conclusions Dahuang ganeao decoction may quickly improve lung injury complivated by ANP. The mechanism may involve inhibiting the expression of TLR4 and down-regulating the expression of IL-6, TNF-α, up-regulating the. Expression of IL-10.

This paper is aimed to assess the diagnostic value of MRI versus 99 Tcm-methylene diphosphonate (99 Tcm- MDP) bone scan (BS) for osseous metastases in patients with prostate cancer. The computer-based retrieval was conducted on PubMed, EMBASE, EBSCO, Web of Knowledge, the Cochrane Library and Ovid data bases to search for trials about diagnosing osseous metastases of prostate cancer with MRI and 99Tc"m-MDP BS. Selected with time acceptance and time exclusion criteria, the data quality were evaluated with QUADAS quality assessment tool and collected. We used the Meta-Disc software to conduct meta-analysis, and then calculated the pooled sensitivity, specificity and diagnostic odds ratio (DOR), drew the summary receiving operating characteristic (SROC) curve, and measured the area under curve (AUC) and Q value. Then five studies were included, involving 353 patients. The pooled sensitivity of MRI and BS was 0. 95 (95% CI 0. 90~0. 98) and 0. 67 (95% CI 0. 58~0. 75), respectively. The pooled specificity was 0. 97 (95% CI 0. 94~0. 99) and 0. 88 (95% CI 0. 83~0. 91), respectively. The pooled DOR was 402.99 (95% CI 119. 05 ~1364. 15) and 23. 85 (95% CI 1. 32~431. 48), respectively. The AUC was 0. 990 1 and 0. 624 1, respectively. The Q was 0. 958 7 and 0. 593 8. It can well be concluded that MRI is more effective than 99 Tcm-MDP BS in the diagnosis of osseous metastases in patients with prostate cancer.
