ObjectiveTo compare the effects of programmed intermittent epidural bolus （PIEB） and continuous epidural infusion （CEI） on enhanced recovery after cesarean section. MethodsTotally 120 women scheduled to undergo elective cesarean section under combined spinal and epidural anesthesia， aged 18-45 years， with single fetus， full-term pregnancy （≥37 weeks）， ASA grade II or III， were recruited， with 60 cases in each group. At the end of the surgery， after a similar epidural loading dose， patients were randomLy assigned to receive either PIEB （6 mL·h^-1 beginning 30 minutes after the loading dose） or CEI （6 mL·h^-1， beginning immediately after the loading dose） for the maintenance of analgesia with 0.1% ropivacaine. At 2， 6， 12， 24 and 36 h postoperatively， VAS score was used to evaluate the composite pain， and Bromage Score was used to evaluate the degree of lower extremity motor block. The time to first flatus， time to first ambulation and the satisfaction scores were also recorded. ResultsThe VAS scores at 12， 24 and 36 h postoperatively and the lower extremity motor block scores at 6， 12 and 24 h postoperatively in the PIEB group were significantly lower than those in the CEI group （P < 0.01）. The epidural analgesic dosage was less in the PIEB group than that of the CEI group （P=0.002）. The time to first flatus and time to first ambulation were significantly shorter than those in the CEI group （P < 0.05）. The satisfaction scores were significantly higher in the PIEB group than in the CEI group （P < 0.05）. There was no significant difference in the first urination time after urinary catheter removal and the length of hospital stay between the two groups （P > 0.05）. ConclusionCompared with CEI， PIEB provides better postoperative analgesia， less motor block scores， lower epidural analgesic dosage， shorter the time to first flatus and defecation and time to first ambulation， and greater patient satisfaction， which is more consistent with the ERAS concept of analgesia.

OBJECTIVE: To introduce an arthroscopic "inlay" Bristow procedure based on the Mortise-Tenon joint structure concept using suture button fixation, and to evaluate its clinical and radiology results postoperatively with a minimal 3-year follow-up. METHODS: A total of 56 patients who received arthroscopic "inlay" Bristow procedure with suture button fixation between June 2015 to June 2016 were eventually enrolled in this study. Radiological assessment on the 3D CT scan was performed preoperatively, immediately after operation, and postoperatively at the end of 3 months, 6 months and the final follow-up. Complications postoperatively were also recorded. RESULTS: A total of 56 patients were finally included in this study. The mean follow-up time was (36.1±3.7) months. Coracoid grafts (middle point) were positioned at about 4 o'clock (123.8°±12.3°) in the En-face view. In the axial view, 95% (53/56) of the grafts positioning were measured as flush, 5% (3/56) as medial. Bone union rate was 96.4% at the final follow-up. At the end of 3 months, 6 months, and the final follow-up, the length of the coracoid graft was 96.9%±4.9%, 91.9%±6.2%, and 91.6%±6.6% of the immediate postoperative length, respectively. Compared with the immediate postoperative length, the length measured at the end of 3 months shortened not significantly (t=2.12, P > 0.05). The coracoid graft shortened more pronouncedly 6 months postoperatively (t=4.98, P < 0.05) and then remained almost constant over time (t=-0.75, P > 0.05), with all grafted coracoid graft retaining more than 90% of their initial length by the 3-year follow-up. And new bone formation at the junction between the coracoid graft and glenoid neck in the axial view were obviously noted in 25 cases. The quantitative evaluation showed that the glenoid area in En-face view was significantly increased at the final follow-up than that immediately after surgery [(9.72±1.22) cm² vs. (9.42±1.11) cm²]. No degenerative changes were noted on CT images in all the patients at the final follow-up. CONCLUSION This study reported a series of "inlay" Bristow procedure with suture button fixation for recurrent shoulder dislocation, providing satisfactory union rate and excellent graft positioning. And using suture button fixation instead of screw can reduce osteolysis and complications related to hardware implantation. Moreover, the bone remodeling between the coracoid process and glenoid could be beneficial to restoring the anterior stability of shoulder joint in a long term follow-up.

Objective: To study on the antitumor mechanism of artesunate in the treatment of liver cancer based on gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Method: CellTiter-Glo^® Luminescent Cell Viability Assay was used to detect activity of artesunate with different concentrations (0, 12.5, 25, 50, 100 μmol·L^-1) on human liver cancer Huh7, SMMC-7721 cells for 24, 48, 72 h. GC-MS was employed to analyze the changes of metabolites of artesunate in two kinds of hepatoma cells (Huh7, SMMC-7721) for 24 h. The data was preprocessed by Postrun Analysis 4.41 workstation. Partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) was used to analyze two sets of differential metabolites and to analyze metabolic pathways of differential metabolites based on MetaboAnalyst 3.0 software. Result: Compared with the normal group, after two kinds of liver cancer cells was treated by artesunate, a total of 39 identical metabolites in the cells have undergone significant changes, which were mainly related to five metabolic pathways,including biosynthesis of aminoacyl-transfer RNA (tRNA), metabolism of alanine, aspartic acid and glutamic acid, metabolism of glycine, serine and threonine, metabolism of arginine and proline, metabolism of glutathione. Conclusion: Artesunate (12.5-100 μmol·L^-1) can inhibit the growth of liver cancer cells (Huh7, SMMC-7721), it mainly involves five metabolic pathways, which may be the pathway of artesunate against liver cancer.

It is investigated that the hepatotoxicity of Polygonum multiflorum (PM)was attenuated by its processed products of nine times steaming and nine times sunning(RPM)based on immunological stress-mediated animal model by using metabolomics method. Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats were intragastrically administered with(5.4 g crude drug per kg body weight)of 50% alcohol extracts of PM and its processed products of nine times steaming and nine times sunning respectively or co-treated with non-toxic dose of lipopolysaccharide(LPS, 2.8 mg·kg^-1)via tail vein injection. The plasma alanine aminotransferase(ALT)and aspartate aminotransferase(AST)activities were assayed and the isolated livers were evaluated for histopathological changes. Global metabolomics profiling, multivariate analysis and data base searching were performed to discover common differential metabolites for idiosyncratic liver injury. The results showed that co-treatment with non-toxic dose of LPS and PM could result in significant liver injury, indicated by the elevation of plasma ALT and AST activities, as well as obvious liver histologic damage; whereas RPM failed to induce detectable liver injury. Furthermore, 10 potential metabolomics biomarkers that differentially expressed in LPS/PM group compared with LPS/RPM without liver injury were identified by untargeted metabolomics, mainly involved ten pathways: sphingolipid metabolism, linoleic acid metabolism, taurine and hypotaurine metabolism, steroid hormone biosynthesis, galactose metabolism, steroid biosynthesis, metabolism of xenobiotics by cytochrome P450, pyrimidine metabolism, biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids, primary bile acid biosynthesis. This work illustrated the idiosyncratic hepatotoxicity of heshouwu and provided a metabolomic insight into diosyncratic liver injury of PM and RPM.
