Objective:To analyze the research trends and hotspots of bupivacaine liposomes from 1994 to 2023 using bibliometrics.Methods:A comprehensive search was conducted for the literature related to bupivacaine liposomes in the Web of Science Core Collection from 1994 to 2023. The CiteSpace software was used to conduct an in-depth analysis of the included literature data, including publication year, country, institution, author, journal, cited references, keywords, etc.Results:A total of 875 papers related to bupivacaine liposomes were included. The research and development of bupivacaine liposomes were divided into 3 stages: slow development (1994-2011), a sharp rise (2011-2021), and stabilization (2021-2023). The United States was in a leading position in terms of the number of publications, centrality, and author cooperation, and Harvard University had the largest number of publications. de Paula E had the most publications, Bramlett K had the highest number of citations, and Boogaerts J had the highest centrality of publications. Journals such as Anesthesia and Analgesia made significant contributions to this field. The most cited references focused on the infiltration of wounds and the periprosthetic injection of bupivacaine liposomes. The keyword analysis showed that local anesthetics, postoperative pain, etc. were commonly used keywords, and enhanced recovery after surgery was an emerging hotspot. Conclusions:Bupivacaine liposomes show good application prospects in the field of peripheral nerve block due to their unique pharmacological properties and safety characteristics and are expected to prolong the duration of postoperative analgesia. However, there is a difference between the actual effect and the expectation, and more clinical trials are needed to evaluate the curative effect, providing a more solid and reliable theoretical basis and practical guidance for clinical practice.

Objective:To investigate nationwidely the alert threshold for intraoperative bleeding intervention during dilation and curettage (D&C) for type Ⅱ cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP) in the first trimester.Methods:A retrospective cross-sectional survey was conducted. From March 11 to April 14, 2022, obstetricians and gynecologists affiliated with professional associations or institutions of Family Planning Subgroup, Chinese Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Chinese Medical Associaton were surveyed using “Expert Consultation Questionnaire on Alert Threshold for Intraoperative Blood Loss in CSP”. The questionnaire was distributed via WeChat using the Questionnaire Star platform. Observation indicators included professional expertise of participants, preferred treatment modalities for type Ⅱ CSP, and an alert threshold for intraoperative bleeding during D&C.Results:A total of 361 valid questionnaires were collected. Among 361 participants, 73.7% (266/361) held the title of associate chief physician or higher, 61.2% (221/361) had ≥20 years of clinical experience, and 71.8% (178/248) worked in tertiary general hospitals. The most common treatment for type Ⅱ CSP was D&C following pretreatment with medication, uterine artery embolization (UAE), or high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU), the percentage was 35.73% (129/361). 51.2% (185/361) of participants recommended an alert threshold of 100 ml for intraoperative bleeding during D&C. Cross-analysis revealed that participants managing <30 cases annually preferred ultrasound-guided D&C (32.0%, 56/175), those managing 30-99 cases or 100-199 cases per year favored pretreatment with medication, UAE or HIFU+D&C (39.0%, 55/141; 52.9%, 18/34), those managing ≥200 cases per year preferred hysteroscopic D&C (4/11). The most frequently selected alert threshold was 100 ml. In the subgroup analysis of participants with ≥100 cases annual admissions for CSP, 46.7% (21/45) of participants chose medication, UAE or HIFU pretreatment+D&C, while 53.3% (24/45) supported setting the alert threshold at 100 ml.Conclusions:The preferred treatment for type Ⅱ CSP is D&C following medication, UAE or HIFU pretreatment, with an intraoperative bleeding alert threshold of 100 ml. Timely alerts and proactive interventions could reduce injury severity, improve outcomes, and optimize CSP management strategies.

Ferroptosis, a regulated cell death process distinct from apoptosis, is characterized by iron dysregulation and reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation. After intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), decreased cerebral blood flow and iron released from erythrocytes trigger lipid peroxidation-particularly of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs)-through a cascade of reactions in local brain tissues, promoting ferroptosis. Mitochondrial dysfunction and neuroinflammation further elevate ROS, exacerbating lipid peroxidation and accelerating neuronal ferroptosis. Thus, PUFA peroxidation and associated metabolic pathways play a critical role in ICH-related neuronal damage. This review summarizes current understanding of how PUFA peroxidation contributes to ferro-ptosis after ICH, discusses key regulatory mechanisms involving lipid and iron metabolism, and highlights potential therapeutic strategies targeting ferroptosis to improve neurological outcomes.

Objective To explore the effect of pregabalin on sleep of patients after video-assisted thoracic surgery(VATS).Methods 120 cases of patients undergoing VATS under general anesthesia were randomly divided into 75 mg pregabalin group(group A),150 mg pregabalin group(group B),and placebo group(group C),with 40 patients in each group.On the night of the operation,the morning and evening of the first day and the second day after the operation,the patients in the three groups were given one tablet of pregabalin(75 mg),one tablet of placebo with the same shape and smell,two tablets of pregabalin(150 mg)and two tablets of placebo with the same shape and smell respectively.Athens insomnia scale(AIS)was used to evaluate the incidence of postoperative sleep disturbance(PSD)on the night of operation,and the patients'sleep quality every night from one night before operation to the 2nd day after operation was assessed using the St.Mary's Hospital sleep questionaire(SMH).Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI)was used to evaluate the patients'sleep quality one day before the operation,7 days after operation,and 1 month after the operation.The digital rating scale(NRS)was used to evaluate the patients'pain at the incision and the surgical side.The remedial analgesia,incidence of adverse events in the 72 h postoperative period,and patient satisfaction score were recorded.Results The incidence of PSD in group A,group B and group C was 45.0％,42.5％and 72.5％,respectively,the incidence of group A and group B was significantly lower than in group C(group A,B and C compared in pairs,P＜0.016 7).The SMH scores in group A and group B were significantly higher than in group C on the day of operation,the first day and the second day after operation(group A,B and C compared in pairs,P＜0.016 7).The incidence of NRS scores in groups A and B at the incision and postoperative remedial analgesia was significantly lower than in group C on postoperative day 1 and postoperative day 2(group A,B and C compared in pairs,P＜0.016 7).There was no statistically significant difference in the pain scores at the incision and shoulder among the three groups at the remaining time points.The postoperative patient satisfaction scores were significantly higher in group A and group B than in group C(P＜0.01).The incidence of dizziness in group B was significantly higher than in the other two groups(P＜0.016 7).Conclusion Oral administration of pregabalin(75 mg/150 mg)for 3 days after VATS can reduce the incidence of PSD and improve the quality of sleep that night,but oral administration of 150 mg pregabalin may increase the incidence of dizziness.

Objective:To analyze the current status of anesthesiology research in the world and China in 2023 and to identify the anesthesiology research hotspots using bibliometrics.Methods:The literature related to anesthesiology published in PubMed in 2023 was searched, and the country and author of the literature, as well as the key words of the literature were visually analyzed by using the software CiteSpace6.2. R4.Results:A total of 22 473 articles were included, the country with the largest number of publications was the United States, and China ranked second. The author with the highest number of publications in the field of anesthesiology in the worldwide in 2023 was Kaye Alan D from the United States. Chronic pain, general anesthesia and pain management were the research hotspots in the field of anesthesiology worldwide in 2023. The research hotspots in the field of anesthesiology in China focused on general anesthesia, oxidative stress and neuropathic pain.Conclusions:The United States is the leader in the research in the field of anesthesiology, with China following behind. The keywords of the literature in the field of anesthesiology between China and the world are roughly the same, reflecting the convergence of Chinese scientific research with global scientific research. Domestic anaesthesia practitioners can refer to or learn from the research hotspots of related countries and strengthen communication and cooperation between teams while conducting academic research.

Objective: To investigate the efficacy and safety of the new investigational drug pegylated interferon α-2b (Peg-IFN-α-2b) (Y shape, 40 kD) injection (180 µg/week) combined with ribavirin in the treatment of patients with genotype 1/6 chronic hepatitis C (CHC), with standard-dose Peg-IFN-α-2a combined with ribavirin as a positive control. Methods: A multicenter, randomized, open-label, and positive-controlled phase III clinical trial was performed. Eligible patients with genotype 1/6 CHC were screened out and randomly divided into Peg-IFN-α-2b(Y shape, 40kD) group and Peg-IFN-α-2a group at a ratio of 2:1. The patients in both groups were given oral ribavirin for 48 weeks in addition and then followed up for 24 weeks after drug withdrawal. Abbott Real Time HCV Genotype II was used to determine HCV genotype, and Cobas TaqMan quantitative real-time PCR was used to measure HCV RNA level at 0, 4, 12, 24, 48, and 72 weeks. Adverse events were recorded in detail. The primary efficacy endpoint was sustained virological response (SVR), and a non-inferiority test was also performed. Results: A total of 561 patients with genotype 1/6 CHC were enrolled, among whom 529 received treatment; 90.9% of these patients had genotype 1 CHC. The data of the full analysis set showed that SVR rate was 69.80% (95% CI 65.00%-74.60%) in the trial group and 74.16% (95% CI 67.73%-80.59%) in the control group (P = 0.297 0). The data of the per protocol set (PPS) showed that SVR rate was 80.63% (95% CI 76.04%-85.23%) in the trial group and 81.33% (95% CI 75.10%-87.57%) in the control group (P = 0.849 8), and the 95% CI of rate difference conformed to the non-inferiority standard. The analysis of the PPS population showed that of all subjects, 47.9% achieved rapid virologic response, with a positive predictive value of 93.8%. The incidence rate of adverse events was 96.30% in the trial group and 94.94% in the control group, and the incidence rate of serious adverse events was 5.13% in the trail group and 5.06% in the control group. Conclusion In the regimen of Peg-IFN-α combined with ribavirin for the treatment of genotype 1/6 CHC, the new investigational drug Peg-IFN-α-2b(Y shape, 40 kD) has comparable clinical effect and safety to the control drug Peg-IFN-α-2a.

Objective: To explore the features of ascending aortic distensibility (AAD) and risk factors in pre-hypertension (PHT) patients. Methods: A total of 206 participants who received retrospective ECG-triggered coronary CTA by physical check-up or by clinically suspected coronary artery disease (CTA) were enrolled. The participants were divided into 2 groups: Control group, the subjects with normal blood pressure,n=85 and Pre-hypertension group,n=121. A 128 slice dual-source CT scanner was used and the image was automatically reconstructed at every 5% absolute phases in entire R-R interval. The beginning of left coronary artery plane was deifned as the reference and 25 mm above the reference plane was deifned as interested region. ADD value was calculated. Results: Compared with Control group, Pre-hypertension group had decreased AAD,P<0.01 and similar normalized cross-sectional area (Ss),P>0.05; ADD value was similar among different gender and blood lipid levels. Correlation analysis presented that AAD was negatively related to age (r=-0.69,P=0.001), systolic blood pressure (r=-0.37,P=0.001), pulse pressure(r=-0.43,P=0.001) and glycosylated hemoglobin (r=-0.43,P<0.05). Age and systolic blood pressure were the independent risk factors for AAD decline (standardized β=-0.66,P=0.001) and (standardized β=-0.44,P=0.001). Conclusion: Without additional contrast media consumption and radiation dosage, retrospective ECG-triggered coronary CTA may detect AAD changes with risk factors at the early stage in pre-hypertension patients which is helpful to distinguish the high risk individuals.
