Objective:To evaluate the effect of s-ketamine on perioperative myocardial injury in patients undergoing liver transplantation.Methods:This was a prospective randomized controlled study. Sixty American Society of Anesthesiologists Physical Status classification Ⅲ or Ⅳ patients, aged 18-64 yr, with New York Heart Association classⅠ-Ⅲ, undergoing elective liver transplantation with general anesthesia in our hospital from May to October 2023, were divided into 2 groups ( n=30 each) using a random number table method: s-ketamine group (group S) and control group (group C). In group S, s-ketamine was intravenously injected at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg after induction of anesthesia, followed by an infusion of 0.5 mg·kg -1·h -1 until the end of surgery. The equal volume of normal saline was given instead in group C. Central venous blood samples were collected after induction of anesthesia (T 0), at 30 min of anhepatic phase (T 1), 30 min of neopepatic phase (T 2), abdominal closure (T 3), 24 h after operation (T 4) and 72 h after operation (T 5) for determination of the concentrations of serum high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I, creatine kinase-MB isoenzyme, N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide, tumor necrosis factor-α, interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-10 and high-mobility group protein B1 by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The occurrence of adverse cardiac events during surgery and within 24 h after surgery, postoperative mechanical ventilation time, time of intensive care unit stay, and postoperative length of hospital stay were recorded. Results:Compared with group C, the concentrations of serum high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I, creatine kinase-MB isoenzyme, N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide, tumor necrosis factor-α and IL-6 at T 2-5 and high-mobility group protein B1 at T 2-4 were significantly decreased, the concentrations of serum IL-10 were increased at T 2-5, the incidence of myocardial ischemia was decreased, the mechanical ventilation time was shortened ( P<0.05), and no significant change was found in the time of intensive care unit stay and postoperative length of hospital stay in S group ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Intraoperative usage of s-ketamine can inhibit the inflammatory responses and reduce perioperative myocardial injury in the patients undergoing liver transplantation.

Objective:To explore the effect of esketamine on inflammatory cytokines and myocardial injury markers in children undergoing living-donor liver transplantation (LT).Methods:Considering the inclusion criteria, 50 children with biliary atresia were selected for living donor LT. They were equally randomized into two groups of control (C) and esketamine (E) (25 cases each). Esketamine 0.5 mg/kg was administered to group E during induction and continued at a dose of 0.5 mg·kg –1·h -1 after an induction of anesthesia. Group C provided the same dose of 0.9% sodium chloride injection during induction and then continued to pumping until the end of the procedure. Basic profiles of two groups were recorded. Hemodynamic parameters, such as heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP) and central venous pressure (CVP), were monitored at 5 min of anesthesia induction (T 0), 30 min of anhepatic phase (T 1), immediately after repercussion (T 2), 30 min of neohepatic phase (T 3) and end of surgery (T 4) in both groups. Central venous blood samples were collected at T 0, T 1, T 3 and T 4. Serum levels of cardiac troponin I (cTnI), creatine kinase isoenzyme-MB (CK-MB) ,tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) were measured. The incidence of adverse cardiac events, postoperative mechanical ventilation time, ICU stay and hospitalization length were compared. Results:As compared with T 0, mean arterial pressure (MAP) at T 2 declined markedly in group E [(48.6±12.7) mmHg (1 mmHg=0.133 kPa) vs (55.6±10.7) mmHg, P<0.001] and C [(39.3±8.0) mmHg vs (53.2±9.4) mmHg, P<0.001 ] ;As compared with T 0, the TNF-α and IL-6 spiked at T 3 in group C [169.0 (207.1) ng/L vs 43.8 (26.4) ng/L, (132.63±51.75) ng/L vs (51.79±17.83) ng/L, P<0.001] and E [78.5 (138.8) ng/L vs 43.8 (26.4) ng/L, (87.44±32.17) ng/L vs (51.79±17.83) ng/L, P<0.001 ] ; In group C, the concentration of myocardial injury markers CK-MB and cTnI rose at T 3/T 4 compared with T 0[T 3 vs T 0: 5.7 (5.4) μg/L vs 4.0 (3.5) μg/L, 0.09 (0.08) μg/L vs 0.02 (0.02) μg/L; T 4 vs T 0: 5.3 (5.0) μg/L vs 4.0 (3.5) μg/L, 0.07 (0.08) μg/L vs 0.02 (0.02) μg/L, P<0.001 ]. In group E, the levels of CK-MB and cTnI were higher at T 3/T 4 than those at T 0[T 3 vs T 0: 7.0 (5.0) μg/L vs 4.6 (2.1) μg/L, 0.06 (0.09) μg/L vs 0.03 (0.04) μg/L; T 4 vs T 0: 5.4 (4.9) μg/L vs 4.6 (2.1) μg/L, 0.03 (0.06) μg/L vs 0.03 (0.04) μg/L; P<0.001]. Compared with group C, the MAP of E rose at T 1/T 2/T 3 [(58.8±10.3) mmHg vs (53.3±8.6) mmHg, P=0.048; (48.6±12.7) mmHg vs (39.3± 8.0) mmHg, P=0.003; (55.8±7.4) mmHg vs (51.5±7.3) mmHg, P=0.044]. Compared with group C, TNF-α and IL-6 decreased in E at T 3/T 4[T 3: 78.5 (138.8) ng/L vs 169.0 (207.1) ng/L, P=0.010; (87.44±32.17) ng/L vs (132.63±51.75) ng/L, P=0.017. T 4: 62.3 (118.3) ng/L vs 141.3 (129.2) ng/L, P=0.001; (74.34±26.38) ng/L vs (100.59±30.40) ng/L, P=0.002]. Compared with group C, cTnI decreased in E at T 3/T 4[0.06 (0.09) μg/L vs 0.09 (0.08) μg/L, P=0.014; 0.03 (0.06) μg/L vs 0.07 (0.08) μg/L, P=0.003]. Compared with group C, the mechanical ventilation time in group E decreased [195 (120) min vs 315 (239) min, P<0.001]. Compared with group C, the incidence of severe hypotension [16%(4/25) vs 48% (12/25), P=0.015 ], bradycardia [12% (3/25) vs 36 % (9/25), P=0.047 ], myocardial ischemia [4 % (1 /25) vs 24 % (6/25), P=0.042 ] and premature ventricular contractions [0 vs 4 %(1/25), P=0.312 ] decreased in group E. Conclusion:Intraoperative dosing of esketamine may suppress inflammatory reactions and alleviate perioperative myocardial injury in children undergoing living-donor LT.

Objective:To identify the risk factors for postreperfusion syndrome (PRS) during living donor liver transplantation in pediatric patients with biliary atresia.Methods:The clinical data from pediatric patients who underwent living donor liver transplantation from January 2020 to December 2021 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical data included: (1) general information of the pediatric patients such as age, gender, height and body weight; (2) preoperative data such as left ventricular ejection fraction, pediatric end-stage liver disease score, serum aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase, total bilirubin, International Normalised Ratio and creatinine concentrations, and whole blood Hb concentration; (3) intraoperative data such as vital signs and blood gas analysis parameters immediate before reperfusion, time of anhepatic phase, donor liver cold ischemia time, transplanted liver quality, time of surgery, anesthesia time, volume of urine, blood loss, amount of blood transfused, and amount of fresh frozen plasma transfused. The pediatric patients were divided into PRS group and non-PRS group according to whether intraoperative PRS occurred. Risk factors for PRS were analyzed using binary logistic regression analysis.Results:A total of 304 pediatric patients were finally enrolled, with 132 cases in PRS group and 172 cases in non-PRS group. The incidence of PRS was 43.4%. The results of logistic regression analysis showed that prolonged liver graft cold ischemic time ( OR=1.031, 95% confidence interval 1.021-1.042, P<0.001) and body temperature <36 ℃ immediately before reperfusion ( OR=3.095, 95% confidence interval 1.656-5.785, P<0.001) were risk factors for PRS. Conclusions:Body temperature immediately before reperfusion<36.0 ℃ and prolonged liver graft cold ischemic time are risk factors for PRS during living donor liver transplantation in pediatric patients with biliary atresia.

The global coronavirus disease 2019 epidemic is still in a pandemic state. Aging population with underlying diseases is prone to become severe, and have a higher mortality. The treatment capacity of the critical care department directly determines the treatment success rate of critical illness. At present, there is still a certain gap between domestic and foreign countries in intensive care unit (ICU), which is not only in the allocation of medical staff, but also in the beds and settings. The current medical model cannot fully meet the needs of development. The experience and lessons of many major public health emergencies suggested that " dual track of peace and war" approach in discipline construction of critical care is the best medical model. Following the concept of "combination of peace and war", strengthening the discipline construction of critical care department in municipal and district designated hospitals, allocating reasonable standard ICU, step-down ICU and combat readiness ICU, establishing rapid response team, and strengthening regular training and scientific management may be the key measures to deal with the epidemic.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of omeprazole and sodium bicarbonate suspension in the treatment of peptic ulcer.Methods:This present study was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, positive drug parallel controlled phase Ⅱ clinical trial. According to different indications, the trial was divided into gastric ulcer (GU) and duodenal ulcer (DU) studies. Patients were stratified-block randomly divided with a 1∶1 ratio into experimental group and control group. The patients in the experimental group were administrated with omeprazole and sodium bicarbonate suspension omeprazole (20 mg for DU or 40 mg for GU, and 1 680 mg sodium bicarbonate) once a day. The patients in the control group received omeprazole magnesium enteric-coated tablet20 mg for DU or 40 mg for GU once a day. The treatment period was 4 weeks for DU and 8 weeks for GU. The main efficacy indicator was ulcer healing rate under endoscopy. The time of pain disappearance and the total effective rate of clinical symptom relief were used as the secondary efficacy indicators, and the incidence of adverse reactions was used as the safety indicator. The data set included full analysis set (FAS), per-protocol set (PPS) and safety set (SS). Independent sample t test, Wilcoxon rank sum test, chi square test, Fisher exact test method and non-inferiority test were used for statistical analysis. Results:Two hundred and seventy two DU patients and 237 GU patients were included in the FAS, 247 DU patients and 201 GU patients were included in the PPS, and 272 DU patients and 235 GU patients were included in the SS. The results of FAS analysis showed that after 4 weeks treatment, the healing rate of DU under endoscopy in the experimental group was 91.91% (125/136) and that in the control group was 94.85% (129/136), and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). After 8 weeks treatment the healing rate of GU under endoscopy in the experimental group was 86.44% (102/118) and that in the control group was 87.39% (104/119), and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The results of non-inferiority analysis showed the lower limit of 95% confidence interval of difference in effective rate between the two groups was over -10% (-8.84% for DU and -9.54% for GU), which indicated that the effective rate of experimental group was not inferior to that of the control group. The results of PPS analysis were consistent with the results of FAS. The results of FAS analysis showed the median time of abdominal pain disappearance of DU patients in the experimental group and the control group was both 6 d, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The median time of abdominal pain disappearance of GU patients in the experimental group and the control group was both 8 d, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). After 4 weeks of treatment, the total effective rates of clinical symptom relief of DU of the trial group and the control group were 95.59% (130/136) and 97.79% (133/136), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). After 8 weeks of treatment, the total effective rates of clinical symptom relief of GU of the experimental group and the control group were 95.76% (113/118) and 93.28% (111/119), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The results of SS analysis showed that the incidence of adverse reactions of DU patients in the trial group and the control group was 5.15% (7/136) and 2.21% (3/136), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions of GU patients in the experimental group and the control group was 12.71% (15/118) and 6.84% (8/117), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Omeprazole and sodium bicarbonate suspension is not inferior to omeprazole magnesium enteric-coated tablet in healing efficacy under endoscopy in peptic ulcer, and has a good safety.

Objective:To explore the effect of the postoperative rehabilitation model based on the hierarchy of needs theory in patients with ovarian cysts.Methods:From February 2018 to July 2020, convenience sampling was used to select 151 patients with ovarian cysts in Fuyang Cancer Hospital as the research object. The patients were divided into the control group ( n=72) and the observation group ( n=79) by the random number table. The control group conducted routine postoperative nursing, and the observation group implemented postoperative rehabilitation model based on the hierarchy of needs theory. The two groups of patients were compared in terms of getting out of bed, exhausting gas, defecation, hospital stay, and scores of the Life Events Scale (LES) , Frankl Compliance Scale (FCS) and Exercise of Self-Care Agency Scale (ESCA) before and after the intervention. Results:The time of getting out of bed, exhausting gas, defecation and hospital stay in the observation group were shorter than that in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01) . After intervention, the LES score of the observation group was lower than that of the control group, and the FCS score was higher than that of the control group, with statistical differences ( P<0.01) . The ESCA scores of self-concept, health knowledge, self-care skills and self-care responsibility in the observation group were higher than those in the control group after intervention, and the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.01) . Conclusions:The postoperative rehabilitation model based on the hierarchy of needs theory helps to speed up the physical recovery of ovarian cyst patients, relieve mental stress, and improve treatment compliance and self-care ability.

Objective:To observe the incidence and risk factors of microcystic macular edema (MME) in patients with idiopathic macular epiretinal membrane (IMEM) preoperatively and postoperatively.Methods:A retrospective case series study. From January 2017 to May 2021, 72 eyes of 72 patients with IMEM in Eye Hospital of Wenzhou Medical University at Hangzhou were included. There were 18 male and 54 female. Average age was 64.8±7.8 years. Eyes were all monocular. All patients received the examination of best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) by standard logarithmic visual acuity chart, which was represented logarithmic of minimum angle of resolution (logMAR). Optical coherence tomography was used to measure central macular thickness (CMT). MME was defined as small, vertically bounded cystic space located outside the fovea in the inner layer of the retina. According to the presence or absence of MME before surgery, the affected eyes were divided into two groups: non-MME group (35 eyes) and MME group (37 eyes). The difference of logMAR BCVA and CMT was statistically significant between Group A and B ( t=3.117, 2.589; P=0.003, 0.012). All patients with IMEM were treated with 23G three-channels pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with epiretinal membrane and inner limiting membrane (ILM) peeling. The two groups were further divided into four groups according to whether there was MME in the postoperative follow-up time. The group A1 was without MME before and after surgery, group A2 was without MME before surgery and with MME after surgery. The MME group was subdivided into the group with MME before surgery and without MME after surgery (group B1) and the group with MME before and after surgery (group B2). The mean follow-up time was 8.8±7.7 months. The same equipment and methods were used to exam the patients during the follow-up. Paired t test was used to compare the changes of MME, BCVA and CMT before and after surgery. The differences of CMT and BCVA among groups before and after surgery were compared by independent sample t test and one-way ANOVA. Logistic regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of MME before and after surgery, and multiple linear regression was used to analyze the influencing factors of postoperative BCVA. Results:There were 35 eyes in the non-MME group, 18 eyes (51.43%, 18/35) in the A1 group and 17 eyes (48.57%, 17/35) in the A2 group, respectively. There were 37 eyes in MME group, 6 eyes (16.22%, 6/37) in group B1 and 31 eyes (83.78%, 31/37) in group B2, respectively. At last follow-up, the logMAR BCVA was 0.10±0.12, 0.25±0.17, 0.09±0.11, 0.30±0.26 in group A1, A2, B1, and B2, respectively. Compared with the logMAR BCVA before surgery, the differences were statistically significant ( t=3.779, 4.253, 7.869, 6.668; P<0.01). There was significant difference in logMAR BCVA among the four groups ( F=4.460, P<0.01). There was a significant difference in logMAR BCVA between group A1 and group A2 ( t=-2.930, P=0.006). There was no significant difference between group B1 and group B2 ( t=-1.921, P=0.063). The CMT of group A1, A2, B1 and B2 were 371.83±73.24, 431.24±83.13, 407.00±28.07 and 425.19±70.97 μm, respectively. Compared with those before operation, the differences were statistically significant ( t=5.197, 2.465, 3.055, 6.078; P<0.05). There was no significant difference in CMT among the four groups ( F=2.597, P=0.059). Logistic regression analysis showed that pre-operation MME was correlated with pre-operation IMEM stage ( β=1.494, P=0.004). New MME after surgery was correlated with age ( β=0.153, P=0.013). Multiple linear regression analysis showed that postoperative visual acuity was significantly correlated with CMT before surgery and MME after surgery ( β=0.001, 0.134; P=0.015, 0.019). Conclusions:PPV combined with epiretinal membrane and ILM peeling surgery for IMEM can improve visual acuity and decrease CMT. MME regress or regenerate after surgery. Age is an independent predictor of the risk of newly formed MME after surgery.

Early warning of infectious disease outbreak is key to controlling epidemics. Public general hospitals can effectively play their " outpost" role in the early warning and response of infectious diseases, which is directly related to the success of epidemic prevention and control. The authors summarized the current construction and main functions of infectious disease early warning systems at national level, regional level and public general hospitals, analyzed the problems existing in such construction, and put forward targeted suggestions. As found by the authors, some public general hospitals in China have initially built an early warning system for infectious diseases, achieving early recognition, early warning and reporting of infectious diseases to some extent. However, these systems were challenged by such shortcomings as insufficient intelligence, lack of data information exchange, immature practice and application, and lack of attention to the monitoring and early warning of endemic infectious diseases. It is suggested to improve the policy and system support in the future, to expand the types of infectious diseases for monitoring and early warning, to enlarge the sources of monitoring data and to strength hospital informationization construction.
