Objective This study aims to explore the impact of esketamine combined with hip pericapsular nerve block on perioperative stress reactions,immune function,cognitive function,and postoperative analgesic efficacy in elderly patients undergoing total hip replacement.Methods From February 2022 to February 2025,110 elderly patients who received total hip arthroplasty in the hospital were enrolled as the research participants.They were allocated into a control group and an observation group by means of a random number table,with 55 cases in each group.All patients received total hip arthroplasty.Patients in the control group were given 20 mL of ropivacaine combined with pericapsular nerve block anesthesia of the hip joint,while those in the observation group were given esketamine combined with pericapsular nerve block anesthesia of the hip joint.The blood pres-sure,heart rate(HR),oxygen saturation(SpO?),and respiratory rate(RR)of the two groups were compared at admission(T1),immediately after anesthesia(T2),skin incision(T3),30 minutes after surgery initiation(T4),incision suture(T5),and immediately after surgery completion(T6).Both groups underwent detection,assess-ment,and comparison of immune function indices,serum stress markers,and cognitive function scores before the operation and 3 days post-surgery.The Visual Analogue Scale(VAS)pain scores at 3,6,and 9 hours after surgery were contrasted between the two groups.Additionally,statistical analysis was performed on the incidence of adverse reactions in both groups.Results The HR,mean arterial pressure(MAP),SpO?,RR,and bispectral index(BIS)of the two groups from T1 to T6 were compared using repeated measures analysis of variance.The results showed that:(1)There were statistically significant differences in HR,MAP,SpO?,and BIS at different time points(F=118.378,70.002,44.910,242.439,all P<0.001).(2)There were statistically significant differences in HR,MAP,SpO?,and BIS between the observation group and the control group(F=206.643,195.586,93.077,3.953,P<0.001,P<0.001,P<0.001,P=0.049).(3)There were statistically significant differences in the changing trends of HR,MAP,SpO?,RR,and BIS between the two groups(F=18.583,14.158,23.350,4.883,6.698,all P<0.001).At 3 days after surgery,the levels of CD4? and CD4?/CD8? in the observation group were lower than those in the control group(P<0.05).The levels of malondialdehyde(MDA),superoxide dismutase(SOD),and cortisol in the observation group were lower than those in the control group during surgery and immediately after surgery(P<0.05).The Montreal Cognitive Assessment(MoCA)scores and Mini-Mental State Examination(MMSE)scores of both groups decreased 3 days after surgery,and those in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).The VAS pain scores of the observation group at 3,6,9 and 12 hours after surgery were lower than those of the control group.The incidence of adverse reactions in the observation group was lower than that in the control group(12.73%vs.29.09%,P<0.05).Conclusion Esketamine combined with pericapsular nerve block of the hip joint can significantly inhibit the perioperative stress response in elderly patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty,optimize the postoperative anal-gesic effect,and reduce the incidence of adverse reactions.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical features and genetic etiology for a neonate with Smith-Magenis syndrome (SMS). METHODS: Copy number variation sequencing (CNV-seq) was applied to the neonate and his parents, and the genotype-phenotype correlation was analyzed. RESULTS: On the second day after birth, the neonate had presented with pathological jaundice and immunodeficiency. Cranial MRI revealed ventricular enlargement and enlargement of cisterna magna. At 3 months, the infant has presented with square face, prominent forehead, deep-set eyes, hypertelorism, palpebral fissure upward and button noses. Genetic testing showed that he had carried a 2.9 Mb deletion in 17p11.2 region, seq[GRCh37] del(17)(p11.2)(chr17:16 836 379-19 880 992). The same deletion was not found in either parent. CONCLUSION SMS is mostly diagnosed in child and adulthood, but rarely in neonates. For neonates with SMS, the neurological and behavioral abnormalities have not been shown, but pathological jaundice, CNS abnormalities and immune deficiency may be the characteristics, which require attention of neonatal physicians.

Objective To observe the changes of renal tubular injury and the extent of interstitial fibrosis in the C57BL/6 mouse models of chronic kidney disease(CKD),and provide experimental animal evidence for study of the pro-gression of acute kidney injury(AKI)to chronic kidney disease as well as its mechanisms. Methods Twenty-four 8-week-old male C57BL/6 mice were randomly and equally divided into control group, low-dose, medium-dose, and high-dose cisplatin groups,6 mice in each group. Mice in the cisplatin groups were administrated with 5,7 or 10 mg/kg cispla-tin by intraperitoneal injection once a week for 4 weeks. Plasma creatinine and 24-hour urinary protein were detected to as-sess the renal function. The mice were sacrificed, and plasma and kidney samples were collected for subsequent tests. Pathological changes were observed using periodic acid-Schiff(PAS)staining. To evaluate renal tubules injury, the ex-pression of kidney injury molecule 1(KIM-1)was examined by immunohistochemistry and the level of urinary N-Acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase was detected with a commercial kit. The infiltration of CD3-positive T cells and F4/80-positive macro-phages was observed by immunohistochemistry(IHC)and immunofluorescence. The expression of collagen I and α-smooth muscle actin(α-SMA)were tested by immunohistochemistry to assess the renal fibrosis, while total kidney collagen was detected by Picrosirius red staining. Results In contrast to the normal control group,the kidney injury became more seri-ous in the cisplatin-treated mice as cisplatin concentration increased. Particularly,significant kidney damage was observed in the high-dose cisplatin group. Compared with the control group,the plasma creatinine and 24-hour urinary protein were significantly increased in the high-dose cisplatin group(P<0.05 and P<0.001)indicating impaired renal function. Mor-phologically,numerous clear vacuoles and necrosis were present in renal tubule epithelial cells in the high-dose cisplatin group. The expression of KIM-1 was markedly up-regulated and the level of urinary NAG was elevated. Infiltration of CD3-positive T cells and F4/80-positive macrophages was enhanced in the mice of high-dose cisplatin group. Data from immuno-histochemistry and picrosirius red staining showed that mice of the high-dose cisplatin group developed renal fibrosis evi-denced by markedly up-regulated expression of collagen I and α-SMA. Conclusions Repeated administration of 10 mg /kg cisplatin for 4 weeks can induce chronic renal insufficiency in mice,which may serve as a novel model for the research on underlying mechanisms of progression from acute kidney injury to chronic kidney disease.
