Objective To compare the effect of anesthesia management between enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) protocol and traditional protocol on stress level of thyroid surgery.Methods Sixty-two patients receiving thyroid surgery from May 2016 to August 2016, 13 males and 49 females, aged 18-65 years, of ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ, were randomly divided into group ERAS (n=29) and traditional group (group C, n=33).Each group had its own anesthesia management protocol.Operation method, operation duration, the level of pain during emergence and on the first postoperative day, the occurrence rate of complications and the satisfaction evaluation of pain and nausea and vomiting after the operation day were recorded.C-reactive protein (CRP), serum cortisol, interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF-α) before and after the operation day were evaluated.Results The visual analogue scale (VAS) pain score in group ERAS was lower than that in group C during emergence [(0.42±0.83) points vs (0.95±1.16) points]and on the first postoperative day [(1.90±1.21) points vs (2.73±1.40) points] (P<0.05).Group ERAS was more satisfied with pain relief at first day after the surgery than that of group C (P<0.05).The level of CRP in group ERAS was lower than that in group C on the operative day and the first postoperative day (P<0.05).In group C, the level of CRP on the operative day and the first postoperative day were much higher than those before the surgery (P<0.05).The occurrence rate of complications between the two groups had no statistical difference.Conclusion The perioperative ERAS anesthesia management of thyroid surgery is safe and effective in pain management, patient satisfaction and accelerated recovery.

Constructing ethanologenic strains with cellulose activity is important to achieve consolidated bioprocessing of lignocellulose for ethanol production. In this study, we integrated the pyruvate decarboxylase gene pdc and alcohol dehydrogenase gene adhB from Zymomonas mobilis ZM4 into Escherichia coli JM109 by Red recombination method to generatea recombinant strain E. coli P81 that could produce ethanol from glucose. Abeta-glucosidase gene bglB from Bacillus polymyxa 1.794 was cloned into the recombinant E. coli P81 and beta-glucosidase was expressed to give a new recombinant strain E. coli P81 (pUC19-bglB) with dual functions of cellobiose degradation and ethanol production. The extracellular beta-glucosidaseactivity was 84.78 mU/mL broth and the extracellular cellobiase activity of E. coli P81 (pUC19-bglB) was 32.32 mU/mL broth. E. coli P81 (pUC19-bglB) fermented cellobiose to ethanol with a yield of 55.8% of the theoretical value, and when glucose and cellobiose were co-fermented, the ethanol yield reached 46.5% of thetheoretical value. The construction of consolidated bioprocessing strain opens the possibility to convert cellobiose to ethanol in a single bioprocess.
