Objective:To explore the effects of phased goal directed fluid therapy (GDFT) during anesthesia surgery on tissue perfusion and cognitive function in patients undergoing radical lung cancer surgery.Methods:A total of 108 lung cancer patients were prospectively selected and randomly divided into a control group and a study group using a random number table method. The control group received classical restrictive liquid therapy, while the study group received staged GDFT. We compared the surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, colloid fluid dosage, crystalloid fluid dosage, total output, and urine volume between two groups of patients; Two groups of patients were compared in terms of oxygenation index (OI), respiratory index (RI), central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO 2), lactate (Lac), central venous arterial carbon dioxide partial pressure difference (Pcv-aCO 2), oxygen supply index (DO 2I), and oxygen uptake rate (O 2ERe) before anesthesia induction (T 0), before single lung ventilation (T 1), 1 hour of single lung ventilation (T 2), immediate resumption of dual lung ventilation (T 3), 30 minutes of dual lung ventilation (T 4), and after surgery (T 5); The Mini Mental State Examination (MMSE) was used to evaluate the cognitive function scores of two groups of patients 1 day before surgery and 1 and 3 days after surgery, while recording the incidence of cognitive dysfunction (POCD) and pulmonary complications (including pulmonary infection, acute lung injury, pulmonary embolism, pulmonary edema, atelectasis, etc.) within 3 days after surgery. Results:The amount of crystal fluid and urine output in the research group was significantly lower than that in the control group, while the amount of colloidal fluid was significantly higher than that in the control group (all P<0.05). The OI of the study group T 1-T 5 was significantly higher than that of the control group, while the RI of T 2-T 5 was significantly lower than that of the control group (all P<0.05). The ScvO 2 of the study group T 1 to T 5 was significantly higher than that of the control group, and the Lac was significantly lower than that of the control group (all P<0.05); The MMSE scores of both groups of patients were significantly lower than those before surgery on day 1 and 3 after surgery, and the MMSE scores of the study group were significantly higher than those of the control group on day 1 and 3 after surgery (all P<0.05). The incidence of POCD within 3 days after surgery in the study group was 16.67%(9/54), lower than 37.04%(20/54) in the control group (χ 2=5.704, P=0.017); The incidence of pulmonary complications in the study group was lower than that in the control group (5.56% vs 22.22%, χ 2=4.955, P=0.026). Conclusions:The application of staged GDFT during anesthesia in patients undergoing radical lung cancer surgery can further improve tissue perfusion, improve microcirculation and oxygen supply-demand balance of systemic organs and tissues, including the brain, alleviate perioperative brain function damage, and reduce the occurrence of postoperative POCD compared to conventional liquid therapy.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Xiao′er Huangjin Zhike Granules in the treatment of cough caused by acute bronchitis in children, which is defined in TCM terms as a syndrome of phlegm-heat obstructing the lung.Methods:This was a block-randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter clinical trial.From January 2022 to September 2023, 359 children aged 3 to 7 years old diagnosed as acute bronchitis (lung-obstructing phlegm-heat syndrome) were enrolled from 21 participating hospitals and randomly assigned to the experimental group and placebo group in a 3︰1 ratio, and respectively treated with Xiao′er Huangjin Zhike Granules and its matching placebo.Cough resolution/general resolution rate after 7 days of treatment was used as the primary efficacy outcome for both groups.Results:(1)On the seventh day of treatment, the rate of cough disappearance/basically disappearance in the experimental group and placebo group were 73.95% and 57.61% retrospectively, which had statistically significance ( P=0.001).(2)After 7 days of treatment, the median duration of cough disappearance/basic disappearance were 5 days and 6 days in the two groups , with a statistically significant difference ( P=0.006).The area under the curve of cough symptom severity time was 7.20 ± 3.79 in the experimental group and 8.20±4.42 in the placebo group.The difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P=0.039).(3) After 7 days of treatment, the difference between TCM syndrome score and baseline was -16.0 (-20.0, -15.0) points in the experimental group and -15.0 (-18.0, -12.0) points in the placebo group, with significant difference between the two groups ( P=0.004).In the experimental group, the clinical control rate, the markedly effective rate, the effective rate and the ineffective rate were 49.04%, 28.35%, 16.48% and 6.13% severally; and in the placebo group, the clinical control rate, the markedly effective rate, the effective rate and the ineffective rate were 38.04%, 26.09%, 29.35%, and 6.52% separately, which had statistically significant ( P=0.014).(4) There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse events or adverse reactions during the trial between both groups.Moreover, while adverse reactions in the form of vomiting and diarrhea were occasionally reported, no serious drug-related adverse event or adverse reaction was reported.(5)The tested drug provided good treatment compliance, showing no statistically significant difference from the placebo in terms of compliance rate. Conclusions:Based on the above findings, it can be concluded that Xiao′er Huangjin Zhike Granules provides good safety, efficacy, and treatment compliance in the treatment of cough caused by acute bronchitis, and lung-obstructing phlegm-heat syndrome, in children.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the in vitro and in vivo antibacterial potential of Ly-sZHSHW,a phage lysin against Acinetobacter baumannii infections,and to study its characteris-tics.The pET28a-Lys recombinant plasmid containing LysZHSHW coding gene was constructed by PCR,enzyme digestion and ligation using the expression plasmid pET28a as the backbone and ex-pressed in E.coli BL21(DE3).After confirming the expression of the LysZHSHW through West-ern blot analysis,its characterization and potential applications were assessed both in vitro and in vivo.The results showed that the pET28a-Lys recombinant plasmid was successfully constructed and the LysZHSHW protein was expressed correctly.The mass concentration of the purified en-zyme was 4 086 mg/L,which could be used for subsequent experiments.The enzymatic activity of LysZHSHW was determined to be 630 U/μg,with maximum activity observed at 25 ℃ and pH9.0.In vitro experiments demonstrated that 1 000 or 750 mg/L of LysZHSHW,in the presence of EDTA,resulted in a four-log reduction in bacterial counts without any cytotoxicity.In vivo,2.5 μg of LysZHSHW combined with EDTA could increase the survival rate of Galleria mellonel-la larvae infection model to 92.86％after 24 hours,and 0.15 mg of LysZHSHW reduced the bacte-rial load in the thighs of mice by 2.8 logs and alleviated the inflammatory response in muscle fi-bers.In conclusion,LysZHSHW derived from Acinetobacter baumannii bacteriophage exhibited characteristics such as stability at room temperature,alkaline pH,and safety,making it a promis-ing candidate as a novel antimicrobial agent.

Objective To investigate the effect of erector spinae plane block on ultrasound-based hemodynamic parameters of the arteries of the four limbs and biochemical stress indicators in patients with thoracoscopic lobectomy. Methods A total of 120 patients with thoracoscopic lobectomy were randomly divided into study group and control group, with 60 cases in each group.The study group received erector spinae plane block during surgery, while the control group received conventional anesthesia measures.Pulmonary function indicators[peak expiratory flow rate (PEFR), forced vital capacity (FVC), forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV₁)], ultrasound-based hemodynamic parameters of the arteries of the four limbs (maximum systolic velocity, minimum diastolic velocity, mean velocity, arterial pulsatility index, and arterial resistance index), stress indicators[cortisol (Cor), norepinephrine (NE), angiotensin Ⅱ(Ang Ⅱ), and adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH)], and analgesic effect were compared between the two groups at different time points[before anesthesia induction (T₀), after extubation (T₁), and after drainage tube removal (T₂)]. Results FEV₁, FVC and PEFR in both groups were significantly lower at T₁ and T₂ than at T₀, and FEV₁, FVC and PEFR in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group at T₁ and T₂(P < 0.05).The maximum systolic velocity and arterial resistance index in both groups were significantly lower at T₁ and T₂ than at T₀, while the minimum diastolic velocity, mean velocity and arterial pulsatility index were significantly higher at T₁ and T₂ than at T₀(P < 0.05).The maximum systolic velocity and arterial resistance index in the study group were significantly higher than those in the control group at T₁ and T₂, but the minimum diastolic velocity, mean velocity and arterial pulsatility index were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05).Cor, ACTH, Ang Ⅱ and NE in both groups were significantly higher at T₂ than at T₀, and Cor, ACTH, Ang Ⅱ and NE in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group at T₂(P < 0.05).The Prince-Henry pain score, effective compression times, and actual compression times in the study group were significantly lower than those in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Application of erector spinae plane block in thoracoscopic lobectomy causes smaller fluctuations in hemodynamic parameters of the arteries of four limbs and biochemical stress indicators, with a better anesthetic effect.

Objective To investigate the effects of esketamine on hypoxic-ischemic myocardial injury in neonatal rats based on glycogen synthase kinase-3β/NOD-like receptor thermal protein domain-containing protein 3 (GSK-3β/NLRP3) pathway. Methods Thirty neonatal rats were randomly divided into sham operation group, model group and esketamine group, with 10 rats in each group. The rats in the sham operation group underwent a median incision in the neck to expose the bilateral common carotid arteries; the rats in the model group and the esketamine group underwent ligation of the common carotid arteries combined with a hypoxic environment to establish a model ofischemia and hypoxia; the rats in the esketamine group were given esketamine intervention (50 mg/kg). Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS), left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD), serum creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB), cardiac troponin I (cTnI), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-1β levels, myocardial injury, myocardial cell apoptosis and apoptosis protein caspase 1/3/9 levels, neutrophil infiltration in myocardial tissue, and changes in GSK-3β and NLRP3 protein levels in myocardial tissue were detected in each group. Results Compared with the sham operation group, the LVEF and LVFS were significantly decreased and the LVEDD and LVESD were significantly increased in the model group, while the LVEF and LVFS were significantly higher and the LVEDD and LVESD were significantly lower in the esketamine group than in the model group (P < 0.05). The serum levels of CK-MB, cTnI, LDH, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β, myocardial injury and apoptosis, caspase 1/3/9 protein levels in myocardial tissue sections, neutrophil counts, and GSK-3β and NLRP3 protein levels were significantly increased in the model group, and these indicators were significantly lower in the esketamine group than in the model group (P < 0.05). Conclusion Esketamine improves hypoxic-ischemic myocardial injury in neonatal rats by inhibiting inflammation, and its mechanism of action is related to the GSK-3β/NLRP3 pathway.

ObjectiveTo analyze the reliability and validity of Chinese version of Dysarthria Impact Profile (DIP) in assessment of the psychosocial impact of dysarthria in Parkinson's disease (PD). MethodsFrom May, 2021 to March, 2022, 43 PD patients from Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, the First Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University were selected, and 43 age matched healthy controls were enrolled. The process of translation and adaptation was used to develop the Chinese version of DIP, and two groups were evaluated. The internal consistency reliability and intra-rater reliability were analyzed as well as the correlation between each item and its subscale, DIP scores to the Voice Handicap Index (VHI) and 36-item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36). DIP scores of two groups were compared. ResultsThe Cronbach's α was 0.732 to 0.942. The intra-rater correlation coefficient of subsection four was the highest (r = 0.670, P < 0.001). The correlation coefficients were 0.315 to 0.871, which were correlated (P < 0.05), except items 1, 6, 11 of subsection three and item 11 of subsection four. The correlation coefficient between DIP and VHI was -0.821 (P < 0.01), and it was 0.684 (P < 0.01) between DIP and SF-36. DIP scores were significant different between PD patients and the control group (P < 0.01). ConclusionThe Chinese version of DIP shows good reliability and validity, and can be used as a tool to measure the psychosocial impact of dysarthria in PD patients.

At the end of December 2019, acute respiratory infectious diseases caused by a new type of coronavirus were prevalent in Wuhan and other cities of China. Different from radiology examinations, the protocols of nuclear medical imaging examinations are complicated, in which more workplaces and staff are needed, resulting more complex management of patients and higher protection requirements. Combined with the characteristics of SPECT and PET imaging procedures, this paper puts forward some suggestions on the protective process of imaging examinations for patients with confirmed or suspected noval coronavirus infec- tion. The main purpose is to protect medical staff from virus infection, effectively reduce the risk of virus transmission during the examination process, and ensure the medical quality and safety.

Objective To investigate the neural mechanisms of speech motor control in individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) under different strategies of motor execution control.MethodsThe techniques of the psychoacoustic and event-related potentials (ERPs) based on the altered auditory feedback paradigm were used in the present study. Two groups, including 17 PD patients and 17 healthy controls, were instructed to produce sustained vowels under the internal and external cueing tasks while hearing their voice randomly pitch-shifted downwards. The vocal responses and associated ERPs were recorded and compared across the groups and tasks.ResultsBehavioral results showed that the amplitude of acoustic compensation response was larger in PD patients than in the healthy controls (F=5.415, P=0.027), however, the main effect was not significant in the tasks (F=0.039, P=0.840). At the cortical level, PD patients produced significantly larger N1 responses to pitch perturbations in the internal cueing task related to the external cueing task (F=8.634, P=0.006), while such task effect was not observed in the healthy controls (F=1.550, P=0.231). Also, PD patients produced significantly larger N1 responses than the healthy controls in the internal cueing condition (F=5.476, P=0.026), but not in the external cueing condition (F=0.249, P=0.621). Conclusion Speech motor control in PD can be influenced by the strategies of motor execution control. Compared to the internal cueing task, the external cueing task can increase neural efficiency in the encoding of speech auditory feedback PD patients that improve auditory-motor integration for speech production.

Objective To improve the quality of the management of the elderly patients with cancer in Sichuan province,and to understand the attitudes and perspectives of elderly surgeons and oncologists for the management and treatment of elderly patients with cancer.Methods A face-toface questionnaire interview was conducted with oncologists (n 64) and geriatricians (n =64).128 physicians were involved in this study.Results The cancer management and therapeutics were deemed appropriate at present by 9.38％ (6/64)of the geriatricians and 25.00％ (16/64)of the oncologists.The 39.06％ (25/64) of geriatricians used to notice geriatric syndromes,while 81.25％ (52/64)of oncologists never concerned about the geriatric syndrome(P=0.011).As for the causes of the therapy-associated toxicity,oncologist versus geriatrician payed an attention to malnutrition (100.00％ vs.100.00％ in both groups),to mobility disorders(65.63％ vs.65.63％,84/128 in both groups),to cognitive impairment/mood disorder (89.06％ in geriatrician group vs.75.00％ in oncologist group,P=0.038).For the factors affecting treatment decisions,a physical ability attention (oncologists vs geriatricians:70.31％ vs.92.19％;P =0.002),and comorbidity (oncologists vs geriatricians:62.50％ vs.79.69％,P =0.032) had statistically significant difference.In addition,lack of geriatrics knowledge was also reported by more oncologists.However,one hundred percent of participants wanted very much to cooperate with each other in their clinical work.When responding to the clinical scenario,the 10.94％ (7/64)of geriatricians and 32.81％ (21/64)of oncologists chose modified treatment for 65-74 years old patient with cancer(P =0.003).When the age of the patients was 75-84 years old,only 12.50 ％ (8/64) of geriatricians prefer end-of-life care,while 31.25 ％ (20/64) of oncologists chose it (P =0.010).Conclusions Selection of treatment decisions in the elderly patients with cancer affect by ageing.Both oncologists and geriatricians are concerned with the elderly patients with cancer,ageing syndrome,total sickness and functional status.And these doctors support an establishment of a multi disciplinary team cooperation for the elderly patients with cancer.Therefore,the establishment of mutual cooperation between the two professionals is necessary and feasible.
