Conclusion Remifentanil combined with propofol anesthesia can make hemodynamics more stable in patients with acute abdomen complicated with septic shock, and can alleviate inflammation and stress response.

Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of embolization of inferior phrenic artery as nonbronchial systemic artery(NBSA) for hemoptysis.Methods Imaging and clinical data of 1 1 patients with inferior phrenic artery as NBSA were analyzed retrospectively, and complications and hemoptysis recurrence rate were recorded.Results Seven patients underwent enhanced CT examination and 4 patients underwent plain CT examination before embolization.Six of those patients who underwent enhanced CT examination were found abnormal arteries,and were confirmed as NBSA by angiography.The other 5 patients were found unmatch of lesion distribution and bronchial arteries during procedure,and inferior phrenic artery as NBSA were found by expanding angiography.All procedure were successfully performed,3 cases occurred hiccup and need not treatment.No serious complications occurred,such as incontinence and paraplegia.During (1 8.7 ± 1 3.8)months follow-up,only 1 patient recurrence of hemoptysis,and successful after conservative treatment,and the other 10 patients had no recurrence of hemoptysis.Conclusion The inferior phrenic artery as NBSA can induce hemoptysis.It is safe to embolization of the inferior phrenic artery,which can reduce the recurrent rate of hemoptysis.

Objective To evaluate the sleep structure of rapid eye movement sleep disorder (RBD) patients and its correlations with emotional state,autonomic nerve system function symptoms,and sleep quality.Methods Twenty-two RBD patients examined in our hospital from October 2014 to May 2016 who complained of behavior disorders and conformed diagnosis by video-polysomnography (v-PSG) were chosen as RBD group;23 healthy gender,age and education-level matched subjects confirmed without RBD by v-PSG were selected as control group.Their emotional state,autonomic nerve function and sleep quality were assessed by center for epidemiological survey depression scale (CES-D),apathy evaluation scale (AES),scale for outcomes in PD for autonomic symptoms (SCOPA-AUT),and scale for outcomes in PD for sleep (SCOPA-SLEEP).The differences in sleep structures,periodic leg movement index (PLMI),apnea hypopnea index (AHI) and arousal index between RBD group and control group were compared.The differences of scores of emotional state,autonomic nerve system function symptoms were compared between the two groups.The correlations of sleep structure with emotional state,autonomic nerve system function symptom,and sleep quality in RBD group were analyzed.Results As compared with those of the control group,the proportion of non-rapid eye movement (NREM)-Ⅰ sleep of RBD group was significantly increased,proportions of NREM-Ⅱ sleep and NREM-Ⅲ sleep were statistically reduced,PLMI,CES-D scores,urinary and digestive system questionnaire and overall scores in the RBD group were significantly increased (P＜0.05).In patients from RBD group,CES-D scores were positively correlated with proportion of NREM-I sleep (r=0.520,P=0.000);nighttime sleepiness questionnaire and overall scores were positively correlated with PLMI (r=0.465,P=0.029;r=0.444,P=0.039);daytime sleepiness scores were negatively correlated with proportion of NREM-Ⅲ sleep (r=-0.480,P=0.041);cardiovascular system symptom was correlated with PLMI (r=0.439,P=0.041).Conclusion RBD patients suffer sleep structure disturbance,depression tendency,digestive and urinary system of autonomic nerve symptoms;sleep quality scores and total scores,cardiovascular system symptoms scores are positively correlated with LMI;daytime sleepiness is negatively correlated with reducing phase Ⅲ sleep,CES-D scores are correlated with increasing NREM-I sleep and unbalanced neurotransmitter,especially,5-TH level.

Objective To summarize our experience with surgical management of renal neoplasm involving inferoir veno cava.Methods We review the data of 115 patients,including 74 male patients and 41 female patients,with renal neoplasm involving venous system between March 1993 and December 2015.The mean age was 52 years old,ranging 22 to 77 years old.The tumor was found in right side in 77 cases and left side in 38 cases.There were 15 patients (13.0％) with renal vein thrombus,38 (33.1％) with infrahepatic thrombus,29 (25.2％) with low retrohepatic thrombus,20 (17.4％) with high retrohepatic thrombus,and 13 (11.3％) with supradiaphragmatic thrombus.The mean age was 52 years old,ranging 22 to 77 years old.The tumor was found in right side in 77 cases and left side in 38 cases.All patients accepted the radical nephrectomy.Primary outcomes were overall survival (OS),and cancer special survival (CSS) in patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) estimated by Kaplan-Meier method.Secondary outcome included operative and oncological features,past-operative complications and hospital mortality.Cox proportional hazard model was used to univariate and multivariate analysis for risk factor impacting on OS of RCC patients.Results Complete resections of renal neoplasm with tumor thrombus were achieved in 113 patients (98.3％),2 patients died intraoperatively due to the dropping of thrombus.Postoperative complication rate was 16.8％.Hospital mortality was 2.6％.Mean follow-up interval was 48 months.OS rates at 5-,and 10-year in RCC patients were 66.5％,and 61.8％,respectively.Metastasis was an independent risk factor affecting on OS (P =0.000).However,the level of thrombus was not an risk factor affecting the prognosis.Conclusions Radical resection of renal tumor and caval thrombus is an effective treatment for prolonging survival in patients with RCC extending into venous system.Retrohepatic caval tumor thrombus below or above the main hepatic vein should be dichotomized and managed respectively with diverse techniques.Metastatic rather than the level of thrombus was a risk factor impacting on RCC patient survival.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of sunitinib as post-operative adjuvant therapy in patients with high-risk renal cell carcinoma (RCC).Methods A total of 60 patients with resected,histologically confirmed clear cell RCC were enrolled in this study.Patients received orally sunitinib either at a dose of 50 mg on treatment schedule (once daily for 4 weeks followed by 2 weeks off) or at a dose of 37.5 mg once daily for three 6-week cycles from 1 month after surgery.Results All the 60 patients tolerated Sunitinib treatment well and no patient discontinued treatment due to adverse events.Most adverse events were grade Ⅰ to Ⅱ.The most frequently reported adverse events were neutropenia (56.7％),thrombocytopenia (53.3％),leucopenia (48.3％),hand-foot syndrome (46.7％) and hypertension (36.7％).The most frequently reported grade 3 or 4 toxicities were thrombocytopenia (25.0％),neutropenia (15.0％),hand-foot syndrome (11.7％) and leucopenia (8.3％).The majority of adverse events occurred within the first 1-2 cycles of sunitinib treatment,and was ameliorated 1 month after 3 cycles finished.No irreversible adverse event was observed.As of April 5,2012,no recurrence occurred in patients except one death due to cerebrovascular accident unrelated to treatment,with both 6-month and 9-month disease-free survival rate of 100％.Conclusions Myelosuppression occurred less frequently in high-risk RCC patients treated with sunitinib as operative adjuvant therapy than in advanced RCC patients,with a better benefit trend.However,long-term follow-up data are needed to further confirm the efficacy of sunitinib in the adjuvant setting.

Objective To develope a novel rabbit carotid body and carotid common artery model in vivo for the simulation of various intermittent hypoxia (IH) intensities, IH durations, IH reoxygenation (ROX) durations and continuous hypoxia (CH) modes.Methods Forty-five adult New Zealand rabbits (2.5～3.0 kg) were anesthetized while spontaneous breathing kept intact.The tissue surrounding the fight earetid common artery and carotid sinus nerve (CSN) were cleared and "single" chemoreceptor bundle of the CSN was revealed.Then suction electrodes were placed and CSN afferent activity was monitored and recorded carefully.The fight common carotid artery was exposed, cannulated to distal part and its proximal part was ligated.Preparations were challenged by changing the PO2 of the gas mixture equilibrating the perfusate.Alternatively perfusion (2 mL/min) of equilibrated porfusate bubbled with normoxia or hypoxia gas mixtures formed IH/ROX cycles in carotid common artery,simulating the pattern of hypoxic episodes seen in obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), or with continuously perfusing hypoxia perfusate to form CH modes.All the perfusing procedures were regulated by a customized computer-controlled set and monitored using O2 gas analyzer.After the systematic exposures, carotid body, carotid common artery part distal to cannula,and carotid bifurcation were harvested as samples.Results The frequencies and average amplitudes of CSN chemoreceptor bundles afferent activities with normoxia peffusion were (0.17±0.03) impulse/s and (46.2±4.4) μV, and with hypoxia perfusion were (0.6±0.09) impulse/s and (87.4±6.6) μV, respectively.PO2 was (139±1.5) nun Hg in normoxia perfusate and (35.2±1.3) mm Hg in hypoxia perfusate.Conclusion This new carotid body and carotid common artery model is a valuable tool to study neurological and biochemical changes in various IH and CH modes.
